Aladdin and the Magic Lamp

On your hunt for riches and loot, you — a band of thieves and swindlers — find yourselves in the city of Agrabah. Already as you cross the city limits, you wonder: there is little sign of the supposed wealth of Sultan Harun-Ar-Rashid. The fields outside the city lie fallow, the inhabitants look sickly, and the many beggars do not give the impression of a prosperous place. Only the sultan’s ostentatious palace rises above the misery, gleaming in the light of the setting sun as if sheathed in pure gold. Rumor has it that no one can explain how the sultan could have amassed such wealth, and the mystery behind his fortune is always a topic of conversation in Agrabah. Under the pretext of tailoring the most expensive and splendid garments of the Orient, you arrange an audience with the sultan, who is delighted at the idea of being draped in the finest silk. You are asked to wait in the sultan’s chambers until he is ready to have his measurements taken. That doesn’t leave much time to search the room for valuable goods — and to uncover the secret of Harun-Ar-Rashid’s wealth.
