The Lantern of Dern Blackhammer

The city state of Moore conducts a cold war of espionage to further their interests. The average citizen enjoys the theater, a carriage ride, or a walk in the park, all the while evil strives to undo the status quo. Ford must lay hands on an ancient relic that could spell the doom of his city and possibly the world. The problem, Raven Hill, an ambitious mage has eyes for the relic and all the power it will imbue him with.
Ford races against time, the elements and fate to keep the single most powerful magical device he knows from falling into the hands of a mad man. If he fails, Ford's beloved city of Moore, the race of elves, dwarves, and men will bow down to one man who wishes to be a god.
