The Staff of Power

In earlier times, back before the "GOLDEN AGE", lawlessness and unrest were prevalent throughout the land and malevolence stalked hand in hand with greed. Gold was "safer" spent than hoarded, and a man's best bedside companion was his sword and not some comely wench.

However, all this was to change when Arcon made the ultimate sacrifice to the Gods and in return was given the STAFF OF POWER. Infused with magic, this staff could be used for both Good and Evil purposes, but Arcon chose the former. Peace and serenity came to the land and Arcon ruled wisely.

But one man was not so happy. Zyx the evil magician had other plans for the staff and the land and one day, disguised as a beggar, he took the staff from Arcon. With the staff in his grasp he revealed himself in his true form and vowed to destroy the king and his kingdom.

A meeting of the council was held and YOU were chosen to recover the stolen artefact and if necessary destroy the evil Zyx. However, to do this it is imperative that you first locate the four magical weapons: a sword, a shield, a ring and a warhorn. Your only "ally" is your knowledge of magic and your ability to cast spells. Use these wisely and you might just recover the weapons required to defeat Zyx and recover the STAFF OF POWER.
