Heroine's Quest: The Legend of Fair Spring was the first incarnation of Heroine's Quest: The Herald of Ragnarok, a Quest for Glory inspired game created by Crystal Shard in March 20, 2014.

History[]

The Legend of Fair Spring was in development until 2004 when it got cancelled after the members of the development team became affiliated with Crystal Shard. The two games have a different setting, storyline, and art; there is little overlap other than their shared title. For The Herald of Ragnarok, a new plot was written, and the graphics recreated from scratch.

Synopsis[]

Our heroine has grown up in the countryside in a small cottage with her family. One day a strange old wizard arrives, seeking a champion to serve as a hero to the town of Fair Spring. An old friend to the heroine's father, the wizard convinces him to allow his daughter to travel to the town, claiming it to be her destiny. Reluctantly, he agrees.

Background[]

"Many years have passed since Queen Vivienne broke her neck when thrown by a horse. King Gareth died a month ago from a wasting sickness. A month of mourning was observed before the coronation for Crown Prince Marcus was scheduled.

However, on the eve of his coronation, Marcus has disappeared. There is some evidence of a struggle in his chambers. No one knows where he has gone, and the entire city is on edge.

Worse still, an army of undead soldiers is attacking the kingdom. They are being led by an evil warlock who is constantly raising more undead to join his forces. Prince Edmund is commander of the Kingdom's army and so far they are valiantly holding back the invading forces. But information from the front line is not making its way back to the city, so no one is certain which way the tide of the battle flows.

The entire populace is on edge, what with the abduction of Crown Prince Marcus and the menace of the undead army. There is only one way in and out of the valley, and that is where the battle is taking place. No-one can get in and out of the valley, as a blockade has been set up to prevent civilians from wandering into the battlefield.

However, stray undead soldiers have been finding their way into the valley – it is not safe to leave the city at night. The daytime is no safer, as many monsters menace the valley.
