    Bartelmew loses to the Warlock Magnar Teufelson at a game of cards, causing him and the other kobolds to be enslaved to Teufelson. Teufelson forces them to retrieve a magic book long lost below the Earth.

    Bartelmew discovers that the book can be rewritten to change real-life events. He befriends the barbarian Bram and plots with Bram to betray and ultimately slay Teufelson.
