In the once peaceful town of Xorhun, gruesome murders have disturbed the tranquility of its inhabitants. The town’s Council bids heroes assist with the investigation, without being aware of the sinister dealings of some of its own people. The adventures will have to complete a crime scene investigation within the city, to eventually begin discovering clues that will lead them to the nearby Orsraun Mts, only to discover that the situation is a lot more complicated than initially expected. They will have to find out the truth of the disagreement between the members of a hidden temple of the Earthlord Grumbar, and a bitter, estranged wizard and his malevolent experiments. It will be up to the heroes to decide what happens next, be it resolving the situation with diplomacy, or with blood.
