Collectors arcana: The new boxed format contained two spiral-bound flipbooks, one for DM and one for the players. The flipbooks contained the adventure data plus interior art. The outer boxes soon proved to be too weak to support their contents in everyday life of a gamer. Most available used copies are smashed or have tears. This is true with most shrinkwrapped copies, too. Clarify the condition of the outer box before purchase or bidding with the seller when purchasing used copies of Dark Sun adventure boxes.

"In the city of Balic, an insidious new threat to the Tyr region has arisen in the shape of a humble beetle. Magically altered to deliver a psionic malady via their bite, the beetles have been used by templars, slavers, raiders, and worse to neutralize the psionic abilities of their captives and render them docile. In desperation, the Veiled Alliance has called upon your characters to track down the source of the sinister beetles and put an end to them. There's only one problem — the most powerful merchant house of the Tyr region is growing even wealthier from the parasitic trade!

Merchant House of Amketch is designed for four to six characters of 4th to 7th levels. Explore the trade routes and intrigues south of the Estuary of the Forked Tongue, in the heart of the Tyr region! Merchant House of Amketch can be played as a stand-alone adventure or as the sequel to Black Flames."
