Then, set off on your glorious quest to drive out the monsters and let civilization reign once more!

CURSE OF THE AZURE BONDS
After you saved the entire city of Phlan and located the Pool of Radiance, a simple trip to Tilverton should have been as easy as a noon-day stroll. But it wasn’t… Ambushed, captured and knocked unconscious, you awake with no idea who attacked you or how you arrived in Tilverton.
