Background

In the towns along the southern edge of the great desert, the Konboro tribe has posted 'Adventurers Wanted' signs in all of the major rest stops. They are seeking a group of warriors and heroes to help them liberate Djinguré, a place of historical and religious significance among their people. 

The oddly shaped fort is constructed almost entirely from mud laboriously dug from below the deserts sands. Each generation of the Konboro people adds a new layer of mud to the outer walls, so adding their strength to that of their ancestors. The building is a place of protection for the tribe when roving bands of marauders pass through, and also the burial place of the first chieftain whose body still lies in state in the entrance hall.

A few weeks ago a group of bandits slaughtered the guard and took over the fort, using it as a new base to harass both the Konboro and trade caravans passing on the nearby routes. The local guard blames the Konboro and expects them to deal with the bandits, but two attempts have already failed and they do not wish to lose any more people. Will the party choose to help?
