Dnd-like Stories

Three of the Troupers have to break into the throne room of a castle and a document with an (almost) exact duplicate. What the heck? And just because the treasury room is right next door doesn't mean Alak and Poco will go off-script and nab some goodies while they're in there, right? Because that might bring out the entire guard force to chase them down. They know better...

When Marvin's Marvels-a traveling show with a very secret second job-answers a desperate plea from an old man, they expect a simple rescue. Instead, they walk straight into a trap laid by a hooded figure who knows far too much about who they really are. What begins as a search for a kidnapped child becomes a fight against necromancy, undead soldiers, and a wizard who wants the boy for reasons no one will explain. And when Marvin, Ripley, and Zibit finally reach the child, they discover he carries something unexpected...and a warning from the shadows that the boy will be their doom. The Troupers have saved lives before. But this time, the real danger isn't the battle-it's the mystery they've awakened.
