Empire's Darkest Hour (Campaign idea)

Here's one for you Dm's that want a campaign that's a race against the clock.

Once upon a twenty four years ago, the 3rd cousin of the emperor got kidnapped & nobody cared (not even the 3rd cousin's parents [who were fairly aloof & abusive]), & as such no cared to save the 3rd cousin. Years pass & the empire's royal family gets hit with crisis upon crises. From plague, infighting, deaths on the battle field & a small revolution amounts the royal families castle, & the emperor living a stupidly long time to where the emperor's kids started dying of old age, the royal family goes from a splendors 78 down to 2. These last 2 were the ever so old emperor & the (supposedly still alive) kidnapped 3rd cousin.

The emperor knowing that death was both inevitable & soon, & that without a clear heir a succession crises will begin once death finally got it's greedy clutches on their heart, decided that it was finally time to search for the (supposedly still alive) kidnapped 3rd cousin. The emperor deciding that this should all be kept on the down low, sends out the players' party in order to get the now heir, they now have to find & bring back the heir. But people change, & the change drastically if they have been kidnaped for twenty four years so bringing them back may be a lot harder than actually finding & getting to them.

Backstory: This cook book was made by a flumph who was creatively named flumph. It took many years to make & has a majority of all flumphs favorite recipes on it. It was then produced in a small volume, before getting shipped out to low sales. It's now can be found in the odd pawn shop or novelty place Material Value: This item isn't realy worth that much to many people.
