Version 1.0 Jan 2000

"I'm in deep now.  I retrieved the Horn Of Chaos from the Hammer compound just four days ago.  It seems like an age now.  The job went well: guards, traps, gates - nothing I can't handle.  After getting the  horn home and preparing to fence it I hear word on the street is that the Hammers are furious - and scared.  That horn must be more than a mere trinket to them and it will be impossible to fence it off now in the City.
Time to leave.  I've got a trustworthy Southdock contact, Fleur, who can arrange passage for me to a place called Willow Island - home to some wealthy -and discreet- art collectors. I'm leaving tonight... I can't stay any longer as the Hammers are breaking down the door of anyone they suspect of this crime - and heads are rolling.  Fleur's house isn't too far away but I'll have to watch out for Hammer patrols - I'm a known thief and sure to be next on their list."

On his way to Fleur's Garrett has been ambushed by a pair of Hammerites.  He hears gates slam shut as they surround him.  He struggles free and runs.  A Hammerite notches up a fire crystal and takes aim...

Notes:
  There is no equipment in the store-Garrett was not expecting to need any- But I kept the store in as a pause between loading and the gameplay - The action starts straight away, so be prepared!  Your start location on the map is the one identified as an ambush hotspot.
After the initial fun, this is a planning and sneaking mission.  There are a few secret areas, too.
