Daystar West Eye of the Dragon. Another Daystar West module, Eye of the Dragon[/b], was planned but never produced. The Hickmans did, however, run off five hundred copies of the planned cover, which put them in a significant financial hole -- prompting them to make arrangements with TSR for the sale of Pharaoh, Rahasia, and Ravenloft. The Hickmans apparently still have all copies of this module cover in storage at their home. Thanks to David Smith for this info. This research item is closed, but will remain here for trivia purposes.
