The Burnt Wood

From publisher blurb:

Lantos gave her life to create a powerful item to protect the people of the desert from the horror of elemental fire that had been unleashed upon the land. Her partner, Ferra Al-Kantor, wizard of repute, made certain her sacrifice was known, but was unable to recover the staff in his lifetime.

Now, the Staff is desparately needed. It is known vaguely where it is hidden - in The Burnt Wood - but where within the wood is unknown.

Will you brave the heart of The Burnt Wood and retrieve the staff? It is rumored that there are other treasures hidden in the wood also.
