Publisher's blurb:
Vallaki is Burning takes place in the immediate aftermath of St Andral’s Feast: Strahd’s plot has come to fruition, his vampire spawn have profaned the venerable church and the devil himself has appeared, attacked, and very possibly killed Father Lucien.
All of Vallaki is in chaos, its citizens in frantic terror, their delusions of security tumbling down around them as they watch Strahd ascend into the night sky on his ebon steed, his victorious laughter resounding in the brief pause of disbelieving shock before panic reigns again.
Suddenly, with a sound loud enough to drown out the throngs of screaming citizens pushing their way out of the square, the ancient dome of St Andral’s Church lets out an ominous shutter, before collapsing in on itself in a spectacular plume of fire and smoke.
Exhausted and worn beyond endurance, the party turns toward the comfort of the Blue Water Inn when they hear that faint cry that once more stirs their noble hearts to action: from the blazing heat and precarious rubble of the ruin, comes a desperate plea for help.
