After the recent reopening of the Battle-pitts of Hlomb, dangerous competitive sports, for fame and riches, have blossomed; especially in the lawless areas. This cycle event is a marathon journey through the hostile territory of Licentia. Long ago this land was lush, but now the dead roam and foul beasts hunt for prey. This first leg of the journey the contestants race in small groups and eventually against one another.

You wake in a cell with a debilitating hangover and a wicked case of the what-the-hell-did-I-do-last-nights. What starts as a night in the slammer for a bar-fight turns into a trumped-up charge of bova rustling and now you face hard time in the Badlands without the benefit of a trial. Siral knows what actually went down and can prove it. Too bad he didn't get picked up with the rest of you.
Despite a disastrous tour last cycle, Hlomb's favorite diva, H'terse Mk'bewbay, is on the road again. You've accepted a gig as her bodyguards, despite a notoriously high turnover rate. This leg of her tour includes stops from Portus Ketar to the foothills of the Syne, the very heart of Torgk country. Hope you get to enjoy the show...

While you may not exactly be card-carrying members of HEToP (Hlombans for the Ethical Treatment of Puddinbellies,) the buggers ARE mighty cute. Not to mention the cash offered by the worshippers of Huldahn who have hired you to stop the wholesale slaughter of the largest colony of the cuddly little suckers ever found. Things get interesting when the entrance to an ancient sacred cave system full of pre-Ustionic runes is discovered.
