Description

NINJA

Many centuries ago the Grey Ninja stole the statue of Jozen away from their
arch enemies, the Kubuto Ninja Clan, and installed it in the Temple of
Sharloon.
Over the years many attempts were made to return the statue, but to no avail.
Now you have been chosen to try where all others have failed...
Your only assistance is a clue said to be hidden in a poem written in the
Fifth Century by the poet Shimito.
Now as you enter the dark Dragon Head Forest, deep within Grey Ninja
Territory, you wonder if you have made the correct decision...
Well my friend, you'll need all your skill and cunning to survive this one.
