They hear that Asheviere has enslaved the mermen at the nearby Bay of Pearls. Wanting to fight back, they decide to rescue the mermen.

Scenario 4 - While Delfador lures most of the orcs away, Konrad must free the mermen and defeat their captors. After the battle, Delfador returns with news that the city of Elensefar has been attacked. Delfador leaves to bring the news to the elven council, while Konrad takes on the duty of defending or recapturing it.

Scenario 5A - If Konrad chooses to travel by land to Elensefar, he has his first encounter with the undead.

Scenario 5B - If Konrad chooses to travel by sea, a storm shipwrecks him. Fortunately, the mermen rescue Konrad and carry him to a nearby island. Here, Konrad meets the undead for the first time and must hold them off while the mermen rescue the rest of his men and the crew. Here, he meets human bandits and discovers the white mage Moremirmu hiding in a temple. After the undead are defeated, Moremiru departs until Scenario 9.

Scenario 6 - The city of Elensefar has already fallen, and the Orcs have made an alliance with the undead. After Konrad recaptures the city and defeats the undead, Delfador returns. With him is Kalenz, of the mysterious Northern Elves. Delfador tells Konrad of the Sceptre of Fire: how it is hidden in the lost caverns of Knalga, and how it will grant him the kingship if he finds it. The party sets off on their quest for the Sceptre.

Scenario 7 - Konrad and his party are waylaid by Orcs at a crossroads. Elves come from the hills to warn of Orcish ambushes and Konrad fights his way through.

After the undead are vanquished, Moremirmu and his mages leave.

Scenario 10 - The party comes to Gryphon mountain. Realizing that gryphons make useful scouts, they detour in an attempt to steal some gryphon eggs. But Asheviere's forces are also trying for the prize...

Scenario 11 - The party comes to the ford of Abez, which forms Wesnoth's northern border. To the north is the dwarven wilderness of Knalga. They must make haste as the heavy snows of winter approach.

Delfador is telling the story of how the King was betrayed by his son at the battle at Abez when the discussion is interrupted by troops in the border fortresses. Pursuing them from the south are Li'sar and a troop of Royal Guards. Blocking the ford to the north are orcs, hostile to all humans. As Konrad's forces are in mid-river, they are set upon by sea serpents. After Konrad fights through he gains a respite as the serpents delay Li'sar.

Scenario 12 - Konrad's troops are exhausted and nearly mutiny, so Konrad decides to rest for a time. However, first they must defeat the native orcs...

Scenario 15 - Now in tunnels of Knalga, Konrad, Delfador, and Kalenz must elude or destroy lurking monsters to find the final retreat of the dwarves. Although dubious of the party's intent, the Dwarves eventually agree to help the party find the Sceptre of Fire.

Scenario 16 - The party enters the Dwarvish Caverns, now occupied by orcs. They encounter Lionel, a general who was sent on an earlier mission to retrieve the Sceptre. He is now undead and seeks revenge, but when he is returned to his grave he is grateful at being defeated by worthy foes instead of the orcs.

Scenario 17 - Li'sar has finally caught up with Konrad, and confronts him. As the two parties draw swords, they are ambushed by Orcs. Li'sar decides to join forces with Konrad until they reach the surface.

Scenario 18 - After a long search through unmapped caverns, the Sceptre of Fire is claimed (by either Konrad or Li'sar) and the party exits the caverns.

Scenario 19 - Now free of the caverns of Knalga, the party rests near the banks of the Arkan-thoria (or Longlier) river. Still surrounded by many enemies, Li'sar decides that this is not the time to attempt to kill Konrad. She decides to join them as they journey to Kalenz's homeland of the North Elves. To continue, the party must defeat the orcs to the north or the undead to the south.

Scenario 20A - If the party heads north, they meet even more orcs in the Snow Plains. If Konrad does not have the Sceptre, he can find and use a hidden flaming sword.

Scenario 21 - Konrad finally reaches the borders of the Elven Forest. However, a pursuing army draws nigh. Fortunately, an orcish horde is about to ambush the humans. The party must either evade or fight their way through both hostile armies to reach the Elven Council.

Scenario 22 - At the Elven Council much is made clear, yet much is still shrouded in mystery. The Elvish Lady Parandra and Kalenz agree that Li'sar should overthrow Ashievere to become the ruler of Wesnoth, while Delfador feels Konrad is better suited for the task. Parandra prevails when she hints to Delfador of a reason why Konrad is not suited to the throne. The elves tell Konrad to follow Li'sar on her mission to defeat Ashievere.

Scenario 23 - The party takes an alternate route to sneak across the border, but encounter an evil mage dominating in a large valley. The mage has enchanged Cockatrices, who petrify all who oppose him. After Konrad breaks the mirror holding the enchantment, Li'sar's men are free - but unfortunately so are the now-hostile orcs!

Scenario 24 - Li'sar and her party is delayed by Ashievere's border guard.

Scenario 25 - Delfador is about to tell Konrad his dark secret, when they are interrupted by the arrival of a clan of horsemen. They are invited to join Li'sar in fighting Ashievere, but the clan scoffs at their weakness. Li'sar must first prove herself worthy by overcoming their challenge.

Scenario 26 - The party finally reaches the great city of Weldyn. Delfador finally tells Konrad the secret that he has been hiding - that he failed to keep the last royal heir alive seventeen years before. Konrad is not royal, but only a waif that Lady Parandra found! Li'sar confronts her mother, who refuses to abdicate in favor of the true wielder of the Scepter. An epic battle takes place.

Epilogue - If Ashivere dies, Li'sar takes the throne and lives happily ever after, marrying Konrad and bearing three children. Delfador serves as High Councillor, while Kalenz returns to his beloved home in the north.
