Description

An ancient enemy of an ancient people has arrived in the land of Enroth and destroyed your hometown, and you have been rescued by some great mage to prepare you for the coming conflicts between good and evil, while at the same time the Ironfist dynasty ruling over the land is collapsing...

References

In the town of Ironfist there is a not-so-subtle reference to Star Trek; the Original Series - when you leave the temple you are told to "Live long and prosper", a common Vulcan greeting. In the Tomb of Varn there is another original Star Trek reference; unfortunately it would be a major spoiler to reveal it here!
