Kassos
A steep-sloped island of handicrafters and traders
Signs of the Gods
Demeter (Goddess of Law): Her sign is the seal - promises made and obligations kept.
Hephaistos (God of Crafting): His sign is a star-shaped brooch wrought out of tin, the imposition of form onto the chaos of the natural world.
Zeus (Lord of the Sky): A storm rages and torrential rain is falling as your sailors dock your vessel.
Arrival
Water flows through the streets of the town, sweeping away the market stalls and hand carts.
A crowd gathers at the edge of a cliff that overlooks the port - led by Dares, the priest of Zeus, they are going to throw a young man, Pythios, over the edge as a sacrifice.
A middle-aged woman, bedraggled in the downpour, recognises you as heroes and looks at you imploringly. She is Chryse, mother of Pythios.
You must choose swiftly: will you listen to Chryse (Arts & Oration to stop the crowd performing the sacrifice), or comfort her (Resolve & Spirit: if she wins, she hurls herself into the sea after her son), or join the crowd on the cliff (Resolve & Spirit: if the heroes win, the Strife Level is lowered by one)?
