Four mighty adventurers--a tall fighter, a halfling, a dwarven thief, and a human cleric--have just completed their self-appointed task and are heading toward a kingdom to secure gainful employment when a mysterious illusion appears, telling them that a powerful artifact known as Atarian's Stone has been stolen. If it is not recovered, the world as they know it will soon come to an end. They are to search out Mephelist, the cursed/blessed sage, to aid in their quest to retrieve the stone.Their task will not be an easy one, as they will be confronted by bandits, dangerous creatures, a powerful wizard and his minions, and even the temple itself. With time running out, they must overcome these obstacles that seem to appear every step of their way as they race to see if they can save their world.
