tory

The book is mostly set in and around the city of Kallamehr. A strange army, whose nature is unknown, attacks the lands surrounding the city, and whole villages are found deserted; and moreover, a traitor lurks in Lady Carolina's court itself. The player eventually has to travel to the spirit planes to defeat Bykhos, Master of the Abyss, but in order ot gain true victory, he/she must make an ultimate sacrifice, which, however, (in its own way) provides the greater reward.

Other References

The city of Kallamehr is one of the settings in the Fighting Fantasy group adventure book "The Riddling Reaver", which also features the titular character - a minor servant of the Titan god of Luck, Logaan the Trickster - and Lady Carolina, two personae who appear in this volume. Chronologically, "The Riddling Reaver" is set some months or years before the events covered in this gamebook.
