Daggerheart: The Hollow Below

About the adventure

In the high valley of Greenhollow, the days are quiet, the sheep are fat, and the worst thing you’ll usually face is a stubborn goat. Nestled between mossy hills and forgotten stone circles, the village thrives on tradition and a wary respect for old places—especially the Well That Shouldn’t Be. Dug before memory, ringed with black stone, and always cold to the touch, the well has been sealed for generations with heavy iron chains and prayer-etched boards. Until now. Strange music has begun rising from the depths—haunting, beautiful, impossible to forget. People dream of distant voices and vanish before morning. Flowers wilt near the well. Animals refuse to go near. The village is desperate, but no knights or scholars come to help. Instead, you—stablehands, shepherds, hedge-witches, outlaws, and oddballs—are all that’s left to stand between Greenhollow and whatever waits below. This is a tale of folk horror and first steps into legend. Beneath the moss and mud lie secrets older than kingdoms, sealed away for a reason. As you delve into forgotten tunnels and moonlit ruins, your choices will shape the valley’s future—and possibly awaken powers better left sleeping. Will you be the next names sung around Greenhollow’s hearths, or just another verse in a cautionary tale?
