Synopsis:
|
While lost in the woods one day, a young boy stumbles upon a magical crown. Upon
placing it on his head, he is immediately dubbed "KING" and surrounded by sycophantic
followers. The new King must defeat the oni troubling his land and expand his borders to
the edge of the world, taking out usurper kings and building a nation in the process. The
King must keep a retinue of followers around him at all times in order to perform necessary
tasks and defend His Majesty from those who would do him harm.
