Description:
The gods walk the Realms.
Banished from the heavens, they now roam the world, from Tantras to far-off Waterdeep, seeking to regain their full powers. Malevolent Bane, power-hungry Mystra, and Helm, guardian of the heavens, all know the lost Tablets of Fate are the key.
Possessing a mysterious amulet, the four heroes, desperate to escape the dark elements of their pasts, find themselves drawn in this high-level power struggle, sought after by the fallen deities and their minions.
But time is running out for the heroes - and the Realms. Caught in the crossfire, nature itself revolts: strange, deadly creatures stalk the land, and even magic becomes unpredictable. The heroes must find the sage Elminster, the only mortal who may know the secret of the tablets.
And the search begins in Shadowdale.
