Description from the packaging.
The call of magic and mystery is irresistible. Heed it and revel in the glorious excitement of The Summoning.
"The power of the Shadow Weaver grows each day and the pall he casts over the world expands relentlessly. Even as I speak, we are under attack by his Hordes. There is no time to teach you more of the art of casting magic. And what weapons training you've received these last months will have to suffice."
The beautiful mage closes her eyes but for a second and a blinding flash of light engulfs you. Just as abruptly, the brilliance collapses and you find yourself in the labyrinth of Shadow Weaver's dreaded stronghold- ready for the adventure of a lifetime!
