Rance X: Showdown

For over a thousand years, the human and monster realms have existed in an uneasy standoff, separated by geography and the fragile balance of power among the Dark Lords. That balance shatters in LP0007 when Kayblis, the most powerful of the Dark Lords, emerges victorious from a prolonged civil war and immediately orders the full strength of monsterkind directed at the Human Realm. Nation after nation begins to buckle. A desperate summit of world leaders — including Queen Lia Parapara Leazas of Leazas, Viceroy Magic the Gandhi of the Magic Kingdom of Zeth, President Sheila Helman of the Helman Republic, Copandon Dott of the Free Cities Alliance, Oda Kou of JAPAN, and Pope Crook Mofus of the AL Church — fails to produce a unified strategy. Into this impasse steps Rance, with a characteristically overconfident declaration that he will personally crush every monster army. Impossibly, the assembled leaders agree. United under a man none of them fully trust, humanity prepares for the defining war of the age.
