How It Begins
You are Ginseng, a young man carrying nothing. You are walking through a windswept field, full of life, towards the serene temple to the west. There, the aged priestess tells you that Black Dragon has returned to the World Beyond, its folk banished and replaced by dragons. The dragons hold the keys that will restore the hope which was lost. It is your task to deal slyly with the dragons and restore that hope.
If you agree to the task, the priestess transports you to the World Beyond. There, at the Moon Gate, you will find a silk headband and your old walking staff, and your hero's task will truly begin.
