Adventure Awaits:

You are an adventurer who heard tales of a mystical artifact called the Heartstone Crystal. This crystal, recently uncovered by Orcs in a cave near the town of Oakhaven, is said to to be the crystallized heart of the goddess of magic, Mreska.

Do you seek the crystal to restore magic to the world? Or will you fall victim to the dark horrors sealed away deep in the caverns?

Only a true hero with a pure soul may hope to behold the Heartsone Crystal...

Will that hero be you?
