Description from the packaging.

Unspeakable, ancient evil has reawakened, rendering everything it touches undead.

Malevolence is afoot in the Forgotten Realms world. Something horrific has re-appeared. A new Pool of Radiance has been discovered beneath the city of New Phlan.

Swept up in the mystery and enlisted by the good wizard Elminster, your party is charged with a quest: find out what is behind this vile resurgence and put a stop to it. But be warned, brave hero, for the source of this evil lies in the ruined Elven city of Myth Drannor, one of the most mysterious and dangerous places in the Forgotten Realms.
