The stone of the dark Wizard of Chaos has been discovered in an ancient passage beneath the Tower of Glory. The priests whose monastery is within the Tower are quickly overcome by the terrible power within the stone of chaos. Those who do not succumb to its evil are imprisoned, while those that do are unknowing slaves to the holder’s dark designs. However, in the nearby town of Elmwood, Eramil, (Lord Emberstone of Elmwood), a long time friend of Melorn (the head of the Towers priests), has begun to wonder as to why he hasn’t heard from his friends at the Tower of Glory. He sends three of his closest companions to investigate. Claw, a halfling fighter/thief, is captured at the tower, Farimain, an elf, and Bearmug, a dwarf, avoid capture but are pursued by a group of wargriders. On their return to Elmwood they encounter some old friends and a dwarf who has escaped from the Tower of Glory. Will Lord Emberstone be able to save his friends from the wrath of the Wizard of Chaos?
