Locale

The Missing Librarian

A scholar has been called away to explore a newly discovered ancient mine. He has not returned.

Heidi Gale is friends with the scholar, but Deilos Spike thinks they might have something to do with the scholar's disappearance.

The Invisible Wall

No one may exit town, there's a n invisible barrier holding everyone back.

Julie Brightstar is going to go crazy if they can't leave soon.

Trickster Makes This World

A child has become trapped in a magical snare. Releasing the child proves to be a simple matter, but the consequences are far more dire. The child turns out to be a malevolent trickster spirit, now unleashed upon the local region.

Andrew Bigtooth fears the nearby ruins and advises all to stay away. Sigrid Spall is a child who dreams of adventure.

The Floating City

A large city has taken to the air overnight. The ground it rests on has pulled up from the rest of the earth and streaked skyward, leaving the city floating a mile above where it should be.

Bernie Echols was overheard talking about the city floating a week before it actually did.

The Coming Dark

A tribe of dark elves have been banished from their home, and are looking for a new one.

Yusef Wright doesn't trust the elves.

The Weird Relic

You reach into your bag of holding and draw out an unfamiliar relic. It is a small doll-like figure, carved from bone. "Help me..." it cries, and small beads of water begin to drip from its carved eyes.

Rashur Bluepetal that bag of holding is ancient, must be one of the earliest of its kind,

A Matter of Great Import

You have been tasked by a local council of halflings to solve a dispute before the different tribes go to war with one another. There was no clear winner in this year's brewing and weed growing competition, and it is up to you, as unbiased outsiders, to judge the competition.

Roxy Duval invites you for tea, and speaks to you about how talented her son is at brewing and offers you a taste of his latest batch. Clark Davis offers to escort you around the village so that you might avoid the unsavoury areas which happen to be the breweries not run by his cousin.

From the Clouds

A large gray cloud rolls across the land, and terrifying flying creatures descend from within, and snatch up people and carry them back up to the cloud, never to be seen again.

Heidi Mervor's brother was taken off.

The Doll

A living doll has been blamed for multiple murders that have taken place in town.

Frances Terryn bought the doll as a gift.
