Locale

The New Husband

A woman has learned her new husband is actually a ghost. He's not willing to get a divorce.

Clark Marid is the one who realized the guy was dead.

Playing God

A man who recently lost his wife is said to be attempting to bring her back by putting her soul within a flesh golem.

Zayne Terryn saw the widower digging up his wife's grave.

The Duel

Two men are going to duel to the death for the hand of a woman. Neither know the woman has secretly married the person she really loves.

Derrick Massa is the one who married the woman.

Forest Fire

A raging fire burns through the forest.

Erolith Crump is worried they'll lose their home.

The New Chef

A new chef has been hired at the tavern. Unfortunately, he hasn't shown up for his first day.

Claire Thom saw the chef drinking a bit too much the night before.

The Haunted Wagon

A ghostly wagon travels through town each night.

Avery Stonesworn seems to be interested on boarding the wagon next time they see it.

The Child

The king calls you to an audience. A young tiefling child is with him. He asks you to escort this child to a city far away, to ask no questions, and travel quietly and with haste. The trip is paid for, and you are offered a kingly sum as a reward. The King seems nervous.

Jakob Marshall, an innkeeper, won't allow a tiefling under his roof. Timo Ironvain saw unsavoury characters skulking about asking after a tiefling child.

Heat Wave

A wall of flame a mile high and thirty miles long is spreading through the forest, destroying everything in its path.

Jimbo Knight thinks the wall of flame began near a wizard's tower home.

Melt

The weather has taken an inexplicable turn toward the hot, and the snow and ice are melting. So to, are those who live here in the tundra. A foul magic is at play, and it's a race against time to save everyone as they slowly turn to slush.

Forbes Jordan thinks the answer lies at the peak of a nearby mountain.
