At the global race for Scourgehold's first clear, Rose Guild flaunts level 10 players while smaller guilds scramble. Honored Tyrant forms new guild Fellreach, paying the fee to compete and vows to secure the guild-only reward. Rose tried Scourgehold three times and was wiped, but Tyrant insists he can clear it and recruits members, including WealthKing, a level 2 player who bought half a million contribution points. Tyrant imposes strict loot rules (everything belongs to him) and plans to expel WealthKing afterward. As Fellreach assembles amid ridicule and wagers they'll fail, they launch the Scourgehold raid; outcome uncertain.
