About the adventure
In this strange land under a raging storm, a lone figure stands silhouetted against the ancient walls of a castle, staring down a sheer cliff at the village below. A cold bitter wind spins dead leaves about him, billowing his cape in the darkness. Lightning splits the clouds overhead, casting stark white light across his face and the man turns to the sky. He has a look of power - and of madness. His once handsome face is contorted by a tragedy darker than the night itself. But, I’m getting ahead of myself, this is not where our story begins. No, our story begins on a road in a forest, a party of adventurers is making its way to some distant village to stop for the evening. The scent of spring hangs in the air and the dark is filled with the sounds of night birds singing and crickets chirping. A thick mist is starting to form floating up through the brush and trees all around. There is a lantern hanging from a home up ahead where shelter may be found possibly warmth, ale and food maybe some good company and a place to find work to help pay for those luxuries.
