For some time the Kings daughter had been missing, kidnapped by the dragon. Many heroes had gone to try and save his daughter but with no success. All the best heroes were hidden, not coming forward. Of course, the best always did need some convincing. The king sent out his men to put up posters for a reward of 10,000 gold pieces to any person who is able to return his daughter to him. The guards made sure it was well known that the king wanted his daughter back, and that he was willing to give anything to have that. The poster spoke of a gathering at the king's court so that he might meet the heroes who would be taking on this journey. The meeting would be at the end of the month so that word could spread through out all the land to both Tarna and Vragnok. Now all he could do was wait for his heroes to arrive.
