Ice Storm

A severe winter storm has hit, and it's going to take skill and luck to survive the deep freeze.

Alex Larchwood is worried that they won't make it through the storm.

Black Sky

All of the stars have vanished.

Hana Brown is determined to find out what happened. Marge Jayid thinks creatures from space ate the stars.

Freedom

You are escorting a caravan between cities. Late one night you are on watch, and you hear a noise from the cargo. Investigating the sound you find it is coming from within the cargo. A small voice says: "Free us.".

Roan Lachlan does not know what is in the crates, nor do they want to know.

Clocktower

A massive, miles high clocktower has sprung up in the middle of the continent. No one knows what awaits adventurers at the top.

Ruther Banes was first into the clocktower, but has not come back.

The Host

A lonely old man is eager for company. He may not be who he says he is, however.

Quintus Reece warns everyone to stay away from the old man.

Thirst Trap

No one in town can be sated. Water!

The only person immune is Nena Sorra.

Refuge from Fire

One morning a few dwarves come walking down from the mountains, seeking refuge in the city. The next day many more arrive. A fire demon has taken residence in their mountain halls.

Tiffany Ferrier feels those dwarves can find somewhere else to find refuge. Dael Carson wants to help the dwarves.

The Actor

A travelling acting troupe has come to town. They are doing a mystery play, which seems to come true the very night the perform it.
