With the fall of Helgedad, chaos befell the Darkland armies who had, until then, been poised to conquer all Magnamund. Quickly their disorder escalated into a mutinous civil war which allowed the Freeland Alliance armies of Magnamund time in which to recover and launch a successful counter-offensive. Against all odds, a swift and total victory was secured over the feuding armies of evil.

Following the demise of the Darklords, peace reigned in your homeland of Sommerlund. Under the direction of Lone Wolf the ruined Monastery of the Kai was rebuilt and restored to its former glory, and the raising of a New Order of Kai warriors was swiftly established. You are one of this new generation of Kai recruits. You were born in Sommerlund in the year MS 5063, during the time of the war against the Darklords. When you were seven years old you were sent by your father to the Kai Monastery. There, under the tutelage of Lone Wolf, you developed your martial skills and honed the special Kai abilities which lay dormant within you. During the years that followed, your skills were nurtured and sharpened to perfection by long hours of study and rigorous training. Your exceptional talent helped you master all of the Kai and Magnakai Disciplines, and you rose swiftly through the ranks of the New Order to become one of only five who now hold the high rank of Kai Grand Master. It is an achievement which has brought great honour upon you and your family.

During the six years that have elapsed since the defeat of his minions, Naar has endeavoured to enact his vengeance upon the Kai. He commands many agents of evil upon Magnamund, and quietly they wait in the shadows for the day when they can serve their fell master. One such agent was Baron Sadanzo of Siyen. The Kingdom of Siyen is one of the richest countries in the continent of Southern Magnamund, and it is also one of Sommerlunds oldest allies. Sadanzo had its ruler, King Oridon, brutally assassinated so that he could lay claim to the throne in the absence of Prince Karvas, Oridons only son, who lived in exile upon the remote Isle of Sheasu. The Baron was a disciple of Naar and he possessed a sorcerous power that had turned the minds of the Siyenese Court to his will. By use of sorcery he made them support his ascendance to the throne. It was a dangerous threat to Siyen, yet all was not lost. The constitution of Siyen decreed that Prince Karvas had, upon the death of his father, 60 days in which to lay claim to his rightful heritage. Only if he failed to return in time would Sadanzo be elected the new King.

      You walk past the scribes table and ascend the staircase to the floor above where you discover a corridor lined with marble statues. A black door with a shiny lacquered surface stands at the far end of the corridor, held secure by a combination lock. The three copper dials that protrude from its lock are arranged in the shape of a triangle. You place your ear to the door at the centre of this triangle and, by the use of your Magnakai skills, you are able to hear the delicate sound of the tumbler mechanisms as you turn each dial. By turning each of the dials to its correct setting you will cause the lock to disengage and the door will open.

      You determine that the setting for the first dial is identical to the number given to the Kai name prefix True. The second dial setting is identical to the number given to the Kai name suffix Hawk. And the third dial setting is identical to the number of Kai Weapons that you are permitted to carry and use.

      You surrender to the guardsmen and their leader, a thin-lipped man with jet-black eyes, orders his men to take you away. You offer no resistance as the guards march you off under close escort to their fortified guardroom.

      As soon as you enter this daunting military prison, all of your Weapons and equipment are confiscated. Then you are thrown unceremoniously into an empty cell and its iron door is bolted shut. Immediately you set about searching for a way to escape from the cell, but it is only a matter of minutes before the door is thrown open and in rush a dozen guards clad in full battle-armour. They grab you before you can resist them and they pin you to the wall. Seconds later, a Guard Captain strides into the cell carrying your Kai Weapon. Raising it above his head, he steps forward and accuses you of being an enemy spy. You protest that you are innocent, that there has been a terrible mistake, but your desperate pleas fall upon deaf ears. With swift and deadly precision, the Guard Captain strikes you a mighty blow to the head, slaying you instantly with your own blade.

      You follow the street until you come to a watchtower located at the northwest corner of the city wall. Here it curves sharply to the east and passes beneath a stone arch which denotes the boundary of the citys Northern Quarter. Beyond the arch, the street is lined with all manner of shops and premises, but not one of them is a cooperage.

      At length, the street ends at a tree-lined plaza located near to the northern gatehouse. An iron post stands at its centre, affixed with arrowed signs which show the names of the surrounding streets. They all lead away from the plaza like spokes from the hub of a wheel.

The third dial, however, is much harder to manipulate this way. Drawing upon your Sixth Sense, you concentrate hard and try to visualize the numerical position on the third dial that will release the lock. Slowly the dial takes form in your minds eye, but the numbers engraved around its perimeter remain hazy and indistinct.
