Fame. Glory. Adventure. Welcome to Quest World. Amelie Saeowyn is a barmaid at The Dizzy Ogre, so named because the hills behind the tavern attract vicious ogres at a dizzying rate. This keeps the tavern full of would-be adventurers looking to get their feet wet in the wide, wonderful world of monster-slaying and quest-completing. But for Amelie, this just means a never-ending stream of too-big-for-their-britches armed noobs who drink a lot of mead and never leave tips. Unlike everyone else at The Dizzy Ogre, Amelie doesn't want to be an adventurer. She does, however, want to see what's beyond her village, but the owner of the tavern (who also happens to be her money-grubbing uncle) isn't about to let his best source of free labor saunter off into the night. Amelie has "family debts to pay," i.e. her uncle's still sore that his good-for-nothing sister dropped her on his doorstep as a babe. But Amelie's been sneaking money here and there, and she almost has enough to buy passage out of her village and leave this tavern in her dust. Until, one night, two very different strangers come into The Dizzy Ogre. What she chooses to do next could rewrite her fate -- or seal it.
