The expansion
takes you to the northernmost town of Lonelywood, one of the Ten
Towns in the region. Native barbarians have been organizing
hordes of warriors to sweep across the region razing each of the
Ten Towns in their wake. A mysterious traveler enlists the aid
of your party to help stop what he believes is a grave mistake.
For the sheen of gold, or the principle of justice, it is up to
you to stop the storm of conflict. And of course, there's much
more to it than that too!

well)

Mavin Sword and put an end to all evil in the land. Your
adventure is about to begin.
In an
enchanted medieval realm known as the Gael Serran, an evil

blade forged of twin metals, one cursed by evil, the other
blessed by the divine--has the strength to bring his defeat.

Something
bad - very bad - is causing the original Pool of Radiance
underneath the city of New Phlan to re-activate and exude a wave
of power that makes anything that it touches undead. The player
characters soon get swept up by the mystery and find themselves
on the quest to find out what is behind resurgence and put a
stop to it.... This leads them to explore the source of the
problem, the ruined Elven city of Myth Drannor... one of the
most dangerous (and mysterious) places in the Forgotten Realms.

dark dungeons. Expect to find adventure in a variety of
different locations, such as a lizard men lair, elven ruins, and
