The wizard Hokas Tokas takes you to the local library where all the books have been drained of their contents, leaving only blank pages with a round hole through the middle. Hokas tells you it's the work of a being known as the Bookworm and asks for your help in stopping him before he can ransack any more libraries. You agree and after days' of searching locate the Bookworm's hideout, which Hokas warns you is full of "hints" and "clues".
