DON'T RELY ON HEROES, HIRE PROFESSIONALS!
Durham's career path with the City Watch is defined by a horizontal line. True, he once solved a case of sheepicide, but that was a particularly lucky day. So when he receives orders to join the Kobkanýrs – professional dwarven tomb and dungeon cleaners – as an observer, he has no intention of complaining. At least, not until he realises he received the order by mistake.
But there’s nothing he can do about it now, and the frantic guard is forced to join an expedition for a magical mace hidden in the crypt of the necromancer, Alaham. For the dwarves, it’s routine. They expect to charge in and, with the help of axes, shields, crossbows, explosives, siege engines, and trained chickens, slay the undead, disable the traps, and then haul away everything from the dungeon that can be monetised.
Unfortunately for the Kobkanýrs, however, it seems that with Durham, something like fate has entered the game, and the dwarven commando is in for a somewhat more challenging adventure than usual. One might even dare to call it a groundbreaking one. And then there's the undead Alaham, who has his own plans...
