[QUOTE="Zubatcarteira, post: 8619678, member: 7025705"] In Storm King's Thunder, a village is attacked by cloud giants who are there to steal a magic stone. The adventure starts by the PCs arriving there, learning about everything, and helping to save the villagers who fled the place and are in trouble somewhere else. When I was playing it, the very, very obvious plot hook forward is that magic stone. What can it do? Why did they take it? And obviously they'd want to punish the giants who killed so many people, since one of our party members lived in the village and his mom was crushed by a giant rock. The other hooks were all villagers saying, "Hey, can you travel ridiculously far away (one of the places was hundreds of miles away) to tell some people about what happened here/tell the families of the deceased that they died?" We kinda all agreed that was too dumb to be the real hook and just kept going after that damned stone for a while, until the DM gave up and just told us that there's nothing more about it. After the campaign got derailed, I checked the book and the only other info I can find is a sidebar going, "Maybe a giant wizard wants to use it for a super spell, figure it out, lmao". [/QUOTE]
