About this ebook

Duncan Stormforge, a goblin-hating dwarven fighter, begins his quest after hearing disturbing rumors at the Rusty Anvil tavern about a plague-stricken town under nightly goblin attacks. Investigating, he finds a community paralyzed by fear and disease; however, his efforts to help by gathering healing herbs arouse suspicion from Sir Edrik Brightshield, a human paladin who believes Duncan is connected to the plague's dark origins. After being captured and subjected to a purging ritual by Edrik and his companions Elven mage Lyras Silverquill, half-orc warrior Gorzak Ironmaw, Zara Thornwhisper a human druid of the Verdant Circle and halfling rogue Zevan Quickstep Duncan escapes using a storm giant strength potion and flees into the wilderness, where he's eventually captured by goblins and dragged into a massive underground city beneath the mountains.

During his imprisonment, Duncan uncovers a terrifying conspiracy: the goblins serve a malevolent red dragon whose master plan involves spreading the plague to harvest souls and unite all dark creatures into an unstoppable army, ultimately seeking to ascend to godhood. After a daring escape through the goblin city's labyrinthine passages, Duncan fights his way to freedom in a brutal battle, using fallen enemies as weapons and armor, before reuniting with the very adventurers who once held him captive. Together, they warn the king of the impending threat, leading to a desperate quest for an ancient weapon capable of stopping the red dragon before it achieves its divine ambitions, culminating in a climactic battle where the fate of the realm rests on their combined courage, steel, and magic.
