Your mission is to recover this wondrous sword from Ikiru, the Master of Shadows, deep in the Pit of Demons. Two dice, a pencil and an eraser are all you need. You have a choice of warrior skills which will affect the outcome of your mission. There are Honour points to be won and lost. YOU decide which route to follow, which dangers to risk and which monsters to fight.
