Heroes III Map: "The Darkening"

Every few years, I get on a Heroes of Might and Magic III kick. It's one of my favorite PC games of all time. Playing it is comfy, like the first afternoon of summer vacation in 2001. I remember being on such a kick my first year of marriage when my wife left for a couple of weeks and I had no work or school to do. I remember my entire family getting sick as a dog one February and playing the crap out of it. It's just such a great game, has beautifully nostalgic music, and an incredible map editor. A game that's easy to play but hard to master. I want the "End Campaign" music played at my funera—ahem. Anyway...

Nine years ago, apparently, though I can't believe it's been that long, the day after my 24th birthday (I don't know what it is about April being inspiring for projects), I made a map called "The Darkening." I recently stumbled on it (as is usually the case with projects I upload here), playtested and fixed it up a bit, and am really impressed with its premise! It's got an interesting story and objective, a fun pace, and some neat side quests and events that I'm proud of. It's one of the few maps I've ever actually finished. If you're into Heroes III, why not download it and playtest it for me?
