A man plans to exact revenge on all those who slighted him by creating a monster that will follow his every command.

Luce Ward isn't too worried. The guy who wants to create the monster is a known failure.

The Sage

A friend has come down with a strange illness. It is killing him, and your only lead to a cure is a powerful elven healer who lives deep in the western woods.

Finley Ironbane met with the elven sage last spring at a shrine in the mountains. Trixie Pierce believes the sickness is a curse and must be broken through action, rather than salves and herbs.

Cats!

Everyone is turning into cats when the moon rises.

Hawke Sorra is the only person who is seemingly immune.
