Synopsis
Kaerion Whiteheart is a former paladin who has fallen from grace and now survives alongside an elf mercenary. For a large payment, the two join a group of patriots who plan to enter a fear-filled tomb. Rival factions compete there for the ultimate prize of a long-dead wizard, and Kaerion is caught between death and redemption. The novel is based on the classic adventure module of the same name.
