For the longest time, the Almendrud Academy of Archeology and Exploration - situated in New Haran - has been a bastion of archeological studies. Whether it be old desert ruins or long-lost tunnels to the Underdark, the explorers and professors of this establishment have been integral to the progress of historical understanding. While this is still true, some people wish the academy would push past the boundaries of their surrounding world. Such is the case for Professor Funbuck Lockeheart. After reading the studies of his old mentor, Sir Waverly Voss, on inter-dimensional archeology, Lockeheart proposed his theory to the latest roundtable of Academy professors.

Over the course of the three hour roundtable, Lockeheart was criticised and heavily ridiculed, leading to his papers being revoked and removed from the public records. Because of this, no one outside the Academy's close inner circle knows exactly what Lockeheart had written about or possibly discovered.

Even worse, after this traumatic talk, Lockeheart returned to his chambers and didn't exit for two days. Courses continued without him and knocks went unanswered, until finally some of his faithful students broke into his office. The office had been turned upside down, but there was no sign of Lockeheart. The students in question brought this news to Headmaster Lisa Almendrud, the daughter of the Academy's founder, Wolfstein Almendrud. Lisa, in an attempt to keep things from leaking and disturbing the Academy's peace, has sent for a group of skilled adventurers to get to the bottom of the issue.

Enjoy!
