# The Search for the Fountain of Youth

The year is 1700. Something is causing the most powerful people in the world -- crowned heads, cardinals, renowed heroes, the wealthiest of the aristocracy-- to waste away and die. Diviners have been consulted, and all signs point to the same place-- Florida, where Ponce de Leon attempted to find the Fountain of Youth more than a century ago. 

Those who have not already succumbed to the so-called Death Curse have offered up their fortunes to whatever adventurers are able to find the Fountain of Youth and bring back a cure. But Florida is a strange place-- inhabited by dragons, werepanthers, and remnants of dead empires and powerful magics.
