What is happening, where did they come from? They’re hiding along your borders, worshiping strange gods, having bizarre festivals, and no one understands a single word they’re saying.

They’ve always been around, no matter how much you’ve tried to ignore them. But now it’s finally time the Barbarians make themselves known to the Empires of the North!
