The realms of Tamalaria have known many heroes in the course of their history, each with his or her own epic tale. For Dren Laggit, a surprisingly scrawny apprentice blacksmith, tales of adventure and daring-do should only have ever intersected with his life if he were to be responsible for crafting the weapons or armor that helped such a hero on their noble quest. Enter Andrei Dolstov, a minotaur freelance adventurer undertaking such a journey! Except, well, he's going to drag Dren and his master smithy out on the road with him. And Dolstov turns out to be a bit of a drunk and a rabble-rouser. Dren will learn that some journeys of note, when they begin, are Not So Epic. Join storyteller Joshua T. Calkins-Treworgy once again in the 4th Age of Tamalaria, where heroes (and not quite heroes) are born!
