After decades of war, celebrated hero Dias is finally rewarded with his own territory only to discover it’s a barren frontier with no people, no villages, and no sign of civilization. With nothing but endless grassland ahead of him, Dias sets out to build a domain from the ground up. His lonely frontier begins to spring to life after he meets Alna, a mysterious girl with a blue horn. Together, they work to attract settlers, develop the land, establish trade, and defend against threats from neighboring lords and desert raiders. Through diplomacy, innovation, and combat, Dias transforms his empty frontier into a thriving kingdom.
