THE BIG RED DOOR

Our story picks up at the front gate of Shomu. Keno has just arrived exhausted from his rescue run and he has been acknowledged by the guards. Once inside the city, he will seek an audience with Emperor Nang, and solicit help from the emperor's royal army. Could a lowly, battle worn shrew be received by the emperor. We shall see...

Bettle Stew?!!! I suppose that is a delicacy that can only be appreciated by a shrew. I am sure that Keno will find Shrew Kahn alive... after all this he must succeed in his mission.
