About the adventure

The Sablewood is a seemingly-endless forest of dark trees that reach hundreds of feet towards the sky—some say they have been here since the time before the Forgotten Gods. It’s famous for its unique hybrid animals, like the lemur-toads and tiger-elk, as well as its well-worn trade routes populated by traveling merchants. Many of the people of Hush, a town in the Sablewoods (and the Sablewood at large) still worship the Forgotten Gods, despite having no names by which to call them. The Whitefire Arcanist is the leader of Hush’s primary religious order and maintains the magic of the wards that protect the village. But as these wards begin to fail it will be up to you our heroic adventurers to bring a message to The Whitefire Arcanist and save the town of Hush and the greater Sablewoods.
