Synopsis: One Last Quest

Something is rotten in the land of Thistledew.

Seemingly overnight, a band of thugs, thieves, and assassins led by their diminutive "Chief" have taken over this sleepy farming valley, instituting new security rules and regulations that appear to fatten the Chief's purse more than keepthe citizenry safe. But the Chief and his men never counted on a Hero living just around the corner, and now Rosaline is pulled out of retirement with an unlikely squire to defend her family and liberate the village, its goats, and the lucrative beetabega ranches. Forced to search for a mythical golden idol, she and squire Francis travel through the wild lands to find the Lost Kingdom, somewhere in the wilds. On the way, they encounter bad live theatre, a flying mouse army, marketing wonks, shady entrepreneurs, under-employed gnomes, and something more sinister deep in the woods. Will they find Lost Kingdom, get the treasure and return to free Thistledew before time runs out?
