DESCRIPTION
A mysterious body, known only as The Ruling Council of Acheton, has issued the following challenge to sentient life-forms everywhere:
"We hereby challenge the greatest adventurers in the known universe to uncover the dread secrets of our realm.
"Acheton is no ordinary land. Although explorers are welcome, you may find that Death is the only reward. Deeds of heroic valor will be required, and feats of intellect that Newton and Einstein would have boggled at. Understanding of the arcane science known as Magic will be mandatory...
"For the successful adventurer, the rewards will be great: riches immense, power supernatural, and the knowledge that you have succeeded where others have failed...
"Good luck - you will need it!"
Signed and sealed in the four thousand and twenty-seventh year of the reign of Yelkha-Oekkim IV. May His Dread Majesty live forever!
