In Goldkeeper, Sebastian is selected as the High Priest's apprentice at the Temple of Ora. He soon works out that there are lots of advantages to being an apprentice, such as unlimited cream cakes and being able to invent his own laws. There are disadvantages too though, and Sebastian and his pet rat Gerald find themselves trying to out-run and out-think the most powerful people in the city.
