During the Middle Age, a banquet in honor of "brave knights", at the castle of one of the most important lords of England, is interrupted by the surprise arrival of a creature believed to have died of then for a long time : Echidna ! The Mother of Monsters steals an artifact stolen by the lord and uses it to free her eldest son, guardian of the Underworld, the all-powerful Cerberus ! Together, they then set off on a quest that seems obvious, freeing her husband, one of the most powerful Titans in existence, the one who made even the Gods tremble : Typhon. Under orders from the lord, a group of knights set out to prevent this, pursuing these creatures throughout the rest of Europe. However, our "heroes" will understand that Cerberus and Echidnades, the youngest of her children, a powerful giant, are not the only children of Echidna in her company. Plus, while all of our protagonists are nowhere near as virtuous as they claim to be, a question arises along the way : is this mother and her family's end goal really as dark as want them to believe ?
