<description class="blurb">
<p>You are the warrior Lone Wolf<ch.emdash/>Kai Grand Master of Sommerlund. Fresh from your victory over your evil alter-ego, Wolf<ch.apos/>s Bane, reluctantly you are forced to return to the Plane of Darkness. For there you glimpsed the fabled Moonstone and you have sworn to save this gem of mystical power from the clutches of Naar, the King of Ultimate Darkness.</p>
<p>In <strong><cite>The Curse of Naar</cite></strong>, you must venture once more through the Shadow Gate and confront the Dark God. Only by finding and retrieving the Moonstone can you hope to save your world from invasion by Naar<ch.apos/>s armies of night. In this ultimate Grand Master challenge, your life and the future of your entire world are at stake!</p>
<data>
<p>You draw upon your Grand Mastery to supply a burst of life-saving vitality (restore 20 <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points).<footref id="sect48-1" idref="sect48-1-foot"/> As this wave of Kai energy surges through your battered body, you find the strength to scramble to your feet and rush towards the glowing portal. You leap through it just as the retracting coil of rock reaches the mouth of the dragon-gate, and the crash of stone echoes in your ears as you fall headlong through the corridor of swirling flame that lies beyond this mysterious portal. Your Platinum Amulet protects you from the fierce conflagration, and it also feeds you with a steady warming stream of energy which radiates from the centre of your body outwards to soothe your aching limbs.</p>
- <p>Pick a number from the <a idref="random">Random Number Table</a> (0<ch.endash/>10). Now double the number you have picked. This total equals the number of <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points you may restore as a result of the healing effects of the Platinum Amulet. (Remember: your <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> score cannot exceed the total with which you began this adventure.)</p>

<p>After a short time the swirling corridor of flame gradually darkens and you feel the speed of your fall begin to decrease. Then, in a breathtaking instant, your feet slam into hot, cindery ground and you crash forwards to land in a tangled heap.</p>

- <p>Drawing once again upon your knowledge of Brotherhood magic, you utter the words of the spell <spell>Teleport</spell> and will yourself to move through the air towards a place on the far side of the clearing, close to the jungle perimeter. At first the arachnids come scurrying onto the shore to follow your line of flight, but you quickly outdistance them and they lose interest and return to the muddy river. As you descend to make your landing you see that, in frustration, they have turned their attention to your grounded canoe which they rip apart with their powerful jaws.</p>

<p>The moment your feet touch the ground, you rush into the jungle and take cover in the dense undergrowth where you happen upon the remnants of a track. You follow this overgrown trail for nearly a mile until you come to the edge of another clearing. This expanse of level ground is devoid of foliage yet it is littered with strange fruits that resemble gigantic grey pineapples. Beyond these curious fruits you can see the ruins of a settlement partially overgrown with moss. Warily you leave the jungle, making your way around the fruits, and hurry across the clearing towards a statue which is crouching among the ruins. It is constructed of a smooth, lustrous black mineral and is fashioned in the likeness of some evil beast of prey. It reminds you of a hyena, but one with a massive lower jaw set with a pair of sabre-toothed fangs. Between its forelegs is a flight of rubble-strewn steps leading down to an open door. You detect waves of power emanating from somewhere beyond this darkened doorway, but you are unable to determine just how deep below the ground the source of this energy is located.</p>
