The Tower of the Mad Mage has fallen! Light shines again upon a land that for hundred of years was covered in shadow. The Mad Mages treasure is there for the taking, and adventurers from all the realms are fighting to be the first to reach it. For as long as anyone can remember, half the land of Loot has been under the control of the evil Mad mage. Now he is gone and his dark keep has crumbled to the ground. The inhabitants of Loot are swarming to the Mages domain to reclaim their land and get a share of hi treasure.
