The Professors/Adventurers have finished their first year of teaching and receive a personal request from King Mori of Lake Castle to investigate some missing cattle. Since all of their students have been sent off on their first “final,” it is up to the professors to investigate this seemingly mundane request.
In addition both Hercule and Tahir receive a letter from their homelands informing them that they are sending a diplomatic envoy to Lake Castle to sway them in an upcoming campaign. Will their personal loyalties get in the way of what is best for Lake Castle?
