Thousands of bodies lay strewn about the vast battlefield. The Blood of the dead soaking into the once fertile soil. What remained of the stronghold was now in flames. They were known as the Pineapplemen. Guardians of the great field and the secret that it held. They were the elite --hired from regions all over the world. Entrusted with the secrets of the fields --bound by a blood oath to protect it. But one of their number had revealed that secret to the world and ignited a bloody war to end all wars. Once numbered in the hundreds only 10 were still alive. With the Stronghold in ruins and their employer dead -their contract and oath was over. It was time to return home.
