The Adventure Begins

Fallcrest. Three friends meet at the Blue Moon Taphouse to discuss the whereabouts of their common friend and mentor Düvren Stahl. Last seen heading towards the village of Winterhaven mumbling something about buried dragons, the noted explorer is more than a week overdue.

Kane, Amm, and Mardy had no more than just made the decision to look for their missing teacher when the scholar Parle Cranewing enters the Blue Moon looking for Stahl. Now the three have even more reason to find their missing friend, as Parle has offered a substantial reward for a map of some old ruins near Winterhaven.

After securing an advance on the payment, the three head out into the night to prepare for their journey the next day. WIth no more warning than a skittering of claws on the cobbles, a swarm of rats appears from the shadows. Their leader is half man, half rat, and seems to be curious about what their recent meeting with the scholar has yielded. The three friends offer him their blades for an answer...
