Sea of Death (Gord the Rogue)

Few people have ventured into the Ashen Desert, and fewer still have returned to tell of what they saw and how they managed to survive. But a young man named Gord cannot allow himself to be disheartened by this knowledge. Part of an ancient and evil artifact is hidden somewhere in the Ashen Desert, buried beneath the arid and deadly landscape of this forsakens area, and Gord has accepted the challenge of finding and holding the Final Key to keep it out of the hands of those who would use it for evil purposes.
