Story Overview and Progression

-the boss has just been raided and ransacked for the 64th time at the start of the game, the in-world explanation for the boss finding minions and special items being that the hero laid waste to the minions while making their way there and made off with a bunch of items while making a hasty escape. -the in-world explanation for the hero being encountered in levels and travelling round the world map is he is trying to retrieve items he dropped while heading back home. -the items are important to the boss as they grant him his power, the first items recovered is an amulet which allows him to semi-possess a willing minion of his, though only for up to a minute.
