THE RED HAND OF DOOM
You have all banded together in search of Fortune and adventure. Recently you came across an old map in the hoard of an orc tribe you were paid handsomely to drive off by a small town mayor. The map showed the location of a “Vraath Keep” and hints at a hidden vault containing great treasure. Unfortunately you have come to find that the Keep lay in the Witchwood; a forest in a very remote area called Elsir Vale. You have spent much time and most of your reward traveling there sure that you will find a much more lucrative trove of treasure.
DAY 1 ON THE ROAD IN ELSIR VALE
The afternoon sun beats down on you; the air is hot and still.
The sparsely settled lands of Elsir Vale are starting to grow monotonous, with a seemingly endless line of flyspecks of towns. The town of Drellin’s Ferry lies a few miles ahead of you. It’s a settlement hard on the borders of the Witchwood, and the best place from which to begin exploring the nearby forest.
The road crests a small rise and descends into a dusty grove in a large shallow dell. An abandoned farmhouse, partially visible through the trees, stands on one side of the road. You’ve passed a dozen spots much like this one already today, but this one feels wrong. Then you glimpse the glint of mail through the brush on the side of the road.
Fierce warriors-tall, hairy humanoids with wide mouths and flat faces-are lying in wait!
