How it begins

You are the hero Jason of the Argonauts, carrying a magic locket and a spellbook. King Pelias demanded that you restore the GOLDEN FLEECE. But after fighting the last guardian of the FLEECE, you now find yourself alone on the Astral Plane, where you see a statue of Apollo and a lime stone.
