Further Notes[]
- The adventure is contemporaneous with Kharé - Cityport of Traps, beginning at paragraph (179).
- The author used the new map of Kakhabad and took great pains to ensure that the links to the Seven Serpents are accurate, i.e. if you walk due north for long enough you will reach the temple on the map.
- Although you can buy equipment you cannot gain access to spell components that weren't available in either Sorcery 1 or 2.
- There are several paths through the book but you need to be careful to reach Sorcery 3 "quickly" enough to still be able to kill all seven of the Seven Serpents.
