Heres a neat twist on the final installment of Myth III
But then, out of the East, beyond the lands of Gower where Connacht was from, a few misterious individuals (3-7), belonging to some kind of warior brotherhood (yes, this is very very influenced by the recent glen cook novels) appear, the leader agrees to aid the troubled lands of Gower in exchange for the crown of Emperor of the Cath Bruig Empire once Alric has been defeated (prehaps the former Cath Bruig emperor could be killed in the level where we first catch of a glimpse of the Alric / Leveler).
The end could be as Forrest described, they manage to get to Alric's fortress in "The Ruined City of Madrigal" and lay a trap for him etc. etc.
