Bound by honor. Forged in fire. Eternal defenders of Texas.
Trapped between life and death, a lone rider relives his greatest failure; the night he fell before reaching the Alamo with a warning that could have changed history. Each time, his ghostly horse carries him through the streets of San Antonio de Béxar, doomed to repeat his futile ride.
But this night is different. The battlefield is empty, the flag above the Alamo flies Mexican colors once more, and something stirs among the restless spirits of Texas. When a new threat arises to reclaim the land, the fallen heroes of the Alamo, Goliad, and San Jacinto rise again: bound by duty, fire, and honor.
Together, they will fight one last battle to defend the freedom they died for. Because even in death, Texas has its defenders.
