Grombrindal, Ancestor’s Burden (PB)

A Warhammer Age of Sigmar Anthology

In every duardin’s soul there burns the legend of the Wanderer known as Grombrindal, the mysterious whitebeard appearing since time immemorial to guide his people through their darkest hours – though few can attest to seeing him in the flesh.

READ IT BECAUSE
It’s a tour of the breadth and depth of duardin culture in the Mortal Realms, all centered around the heroic deeds of Grombrindal, the semi-mythical whitebeard who is always ready to save the day.

THE STORY
When the ancient sky-city of Barak-Thryng comes under attack by the Gloomspite Gitz on their quest to reach the Bad Moon, it is an opportunity for the city’s defenders to prove their mettle. But there are darker, more dangerous forces pulling the strings behind this attack, for the Weaver of Fates has set his gaze upon the city.

It is into this powder keg that Grombrindal appears. And he is followed by the Oathbreakers, desperate for the whitebeard’s help in lifting an ancient curse afflicting one of their number, a curse Grombrindal had promised to lift – the Ancestor’s Burden.
