(from the back of the book)
No hero can live of good deeds alone. To snatch of the charburner's little daughter from the clutches of the kidnappers testifies of generosity, but leaves the pockets empty. Sometimes fresh ducats must be won! The news of a treasure at the the Oblomon comes in handy. Extensive wealth lies there hidden, unguarded, and waits only to be sacked by a resourceful party. So get some beasts of burden packhorses - you cannot carry away so much gold alone - and then leave to the taiga. The only thing you must remind is that other laws rule there, and other gods rule, but this should not frighten you. you will prevail, or...?
