Story Summary

Four ancient artifacts were brought together to create enough power to defeat the evil Kalaran but were too dangerous to leave united. When the local Dragon, Schmirnov, was asked to guard one of the artifacts, he nearly accepted until he found out that the artifact to be hidden among his hoard was the one sword capable of killing him.
