The Weird Relic

You reach into your bag of holding and draw out an unfamiliar relic. It is a small doll-like figure, carved from bone. "Help me..." it cries, and small beads of water begin to drip from its carved eyes.

Finley Abasi that bag of holding is ancient, must be one of the earliest of its kind,

The Dead Beggars

The town's beggars are nowhere to be found. At least not until their shallow graves are discovered and exhumed.

Alexandra Cruise thinks that less beggars in town is a good thing.

The New God

A woman in town believes she can become the god of the sea if she drowns herself, and then kills the actual god of the sea.

Aria Winterheart is rooting for the woman.

The Waning

The torches, candles and all non-magical fires are burning low and weakly in the city. A dense fog slowly settles over the city. Movement in the fog occasionally shows ghostly humanoid forms moving about.

Rylan Kensley last time this happened the youngest children from each family went missing. Winona Barlow says you must always keep the fire burning when the fog rolls in

Everyone's a Winner

The pub is offering up a series of tournaments: cards, drinking, darts and music. Prizes include magic items and treasure.

Mandy Ashbringer challenges you to a drinking game. Meara Quinn is collecting bets on the games.

The Stranger

The door to the tavern opens, and an old companion from years before enters. You are shocked, as you watched them die.

The companion does not remember you.

Under the Sea

The citizens of a coastal town have been cursed by a witch. Now they've all turned into merfolk, and are forced to leave their homes to live in the ocean.

Kallum Walker thinks the witch is going to ransack the town once everyone has been forced to abandon it.

Goblin Town

A town of peaceful goblin's needs help to protect themselves from humans intent on killing them all.

Taylor Whisperwind doesn't believe the goblins are peaceful. Skylar AnaanShan does, and is trying to stop the others from attacking.

The Floating City

A large city has taken to the air overnight. The ground it rests on has pulled up from the rest of the earth and streaked skyward, leaving the city floating a mile above where it should be.

Avery Duval was overheard talking about the city floating a week before it actually did.
