- Greetings, Hidden One.
In the shadows of the Round City of Baghdad, the 'City of Peace', we have need of your talents. We need you to gather lost pieces of an astronomical instrument called an Astrolabe. It is said that this Astrolabe will guide the bearer on a path to an invaluable treasure hidden somewhere in the desert around Baghdad. If you can locate this treasure, it will give us the resources needed for our fight against the Order of the Ancients.
Your mission: Acquire the pieces of the Astrolabe, assemble them to discern a path, and find the hidden treasure.
We work in the dark to serve the light.
The Hidden Ones.
