* FrothyMugsOfWater: When Kalman mocked Laurus before letting him go, he told him everyone would think Laurus was out in the woods drinking fermented corn juice and made up the story about finding the wizard and his mountain fortress to cover up what he was really doing. That is, they'll think Laurus went out in the woods to get plastered drinking corn liquor, just not in so many words.

The reader plays the part of Caric, a fighter who wakes up in the middle of the night to find a halfling named Laurus rifling their pockets. To make amends he tells Caric the story of a wizard named Kalman who terrorized the village where Laurus lives until the townspeople banded together and burned down his home. Since then Kalman's carved out a dungeon full of monsters beneath a nearby mountain to protect his riches. In an ill-advised quest to steal some of the wizard's reputed treasure to get some relief from his nagging wife, Laurus set off into the forest and was caught by Kalman, then sent back out of the dungeon again with a story no-one would believe. Caric takes Laurus under his wing and decides to pick up where the halfling left off, to make his way through the dungeon and defeat the evil wizard.

* DungeonCrawl: Unsurprisingly, very much has the feel of one, with each room seeming to have a new monster or weird danger to confront.
