More Money!

Gold pieces have rained down from the sky over a small village. The new wealth has created some problems, to say the least.

A Dire Path

The obvious path to your goal is blocked. There is a side route however, but it is far more dangerous.

Max Greene feels the path was blocked on purpose. Sarab Wildwood is comfortable going underground.

The Child

The king calls you to an audience. A young tiefling child is with him. He asks you to escort this child to a city far away, to ask no questions, and travel quietly and with haste. The trip is paid for, and you are offered a kingly sum as a reward. The King seems nervous.
