Synopsis

This adventure takes place in a remote corner of an important trade route. Here, an ancient forest god is the source of all life, from the strange deep forest to the fields that feed passing travelers. Something has gone terribly wrong, however, and an endless and worsening storm is emanating from the center of the forest. Unless someone can delve into the forest and set things right, the region is doomed.

There are three main areas in this game:

The adventure starts in the village of Sparrowvale, a village which exists to supply and feed merchants and other travelers, many of whom might want to hire adventurers.
The last stop before the forest is The Monastery, one of many belonging to the Order of the Boundless Scroll, known for its library of strange and lost knowledge. Perhaps some key information on what is happening can be found here, but nobody is allowed into the library right now...
Finally, The Forest, the realm of an ancient god, a place of strangeness and great power, where mortals will only ever be uneasy guests, but from which all life in the region flows.
In addition, this book contains a few random tables that might be of use outside the adventure:

36 books you might find in the library
24 random names (on top of the many named NPCs)
8 random merchants
12 things to forage in the woods
