The Executioner's Challenge

From the publisher: "Spit in a sorcerer's eye, snatch the wrong gem from a dragon's lair, or peak into the wrong crypt, the Executioner doesn't care. In the wink of an eye your old troubles are over as you kneel before the hooded-one thumbing his axe. All cursed souls are welcome in his dungeon, and any that fulfill his challenge may survive to return home. This time, he tells the fools before him to search his labyrinth for the Scepter of the Old Ones, granting amnesty to those who can fulfill the Executioner's Challenge!"
