The Ticking

A loud ticking, like from a clock, can be heard coming from the forest.

Cassie Hasan wonders what will happen if the ticking stops.

What Now?

Another group of adventurers has killed the Big Bad.

An old man is said to be a war criminal in the last great war and has been hiding out and posing as the innkeep for the last fifty years. Now people are closing in, and he doesn't know what he should do.

Eden Enola thinks everyone should just leave the old guy alone.

The Fountain of Truth

There's a mysterious spring in the forest that seems in force those who drink from it tell the truth for a day or so.

Monica Broadbent drank from the water and is now getting a divorce.

Avery Bradley was working with an underground group of rebels who wanted to depose the King.

The only person immune is Julie Masak.
