The good folk of Wilstrome had lived with the ever-looming threat of the Skinkadink - or as they often refer to it, the monster in the mountains - for as long as they could remember.
After a previous failed attempt to destroy the foul beast, the Skinkadink went quiet. Many believed it had succumbed to its wounds and was not seen or heard of again ... until now. Worrying talk of sightings and missing farm animals had led some to believe that it was stirring again and would wreak havoc on Wilstrome once more.
The brave, sword cane fighting weasel, Plodweasel and his best friend, a rare two-footed scritch, known as Tamfoot, are tasked with forming a brave band of adventurers and undertaking a perilous quest; hunting and destroying the Skinkadink.
With the aid of an orphaned boy, a young fisherman, named Brillo, they set about forming their party and ultimately, embark on an epic quest to end the monster's reign of terror.
