The Archon Ruins
Beyond the desert mountains lies a forgotten civilization with mysterious magic that needs to be uncovered. The Archon Ruins is an adventure setting in which players can explore dangerous conflict situations while trying their hand at minimalist rulesets without Game Master assistance, or they may use traditional GMs' prep work by playing as treasure hunters exploring this ancient site for hidden gems like arcane crystals and magical artifacts
