Flight to Freedom is a
campaign featuring the Drakes. The hero, Malakar, and his tribe have been enslaved by humans,
and Malakar must free the tribe and take revenge on his oppressors.

Storyline:

1. On Morogor (the Drake homeland), Malakar fights a hopeless battle against humans. 
2. Malakar and his tribe are enslaved and sold to the baron Prax III to work in his shipyards. Malakar leads an
uprising. You have to liberate the slaves and kill the taskmaster. 
3. The drakes enter the master's house and have to fight his bodyguards to kill him. 
4. The party kills the master and torches his house, and finds out about a caravan full of gold headed to his house.
The drakes ambush it and get the gold. 
5. The party leaves the plantation, and Malakar decides on a plan. Set sail to a southern island, build up an army, and
attack Wesnoth from the southern coast. In the meantime, they have come to the Blue River, and must capture it. They
forge an alliance with pirates during the scenario. Their leader, Kogw, joins them. 
6. Sailing down the river, the party is stopped by Wesnothian ships. They must destroy them. 
7. The party finds open ocean, but along the way is ambushed by Sea Serpents and Cuttle Fish. 
8. The party lands on the Isle of Storms, and sets up camp. However, orcs have overtaken the island, and Malakar must
destroy them. Humans land on the island, and a free-for-all results. Kogw tells the story of the Isle of Storms, and
each turn, there is a chance a thunder spirit will rain from the sky. 
9. Human reinforcements arrive. Malakar cannot defeat them, so he flees underground. Malakar must hold them off long
enough so that he can escape. 
10. While underground, Malakar encounters dwarves, who try to kill him. He must kill them. There is also a skeletal
dragon, but I won't tell where :) 
11. Malakar finds an underground river of lava. However, past that is a dead end. Malakar must follow the river,
because the dwarves and humans are behind him. 
12. The dwarves catch up with him. To save himself, Malakar triggers a rockfall. 
13. Malakar makes it to the surface. owever, tension is rising between the drakes. They steal half of your gold and
fight. If you win, you get the gold back. 
14. The humans and dwarves are now undead and attacking. Malakar must kill them. 
15. The party finds the Gate of Storms, and must destroy the Major Spirit guarding it. 
16. The party returns to their landing site, but finds it overrun by thugs. Malakar must kill them. 
17. Malakar sails south to Morogor, but is attacked by Nagas. 
18. Malakar lands on Morogor, to find it captured by Wesnothians. The humans try to stop him from landing. 
19. After landing, Malakar continues east to meet with his brother Kamalar. 
20. Malakar and Kamalar confront the capital city of Weswyt, now defiled by humans. 
21. A victory sequence, showing Malakar taking the throne of the Drake Empire.
