Two men are going to duel to the death for the hand of a woman. Neither know the woman has secretly married the person she really loves.

Jericho Hasan is the one who married the woman.

Seven Heads of Fury

A hydra is constantly attacking the boats trying to make for port, just off the coast.

The Coming Dark

A tribe of dark elves have been banished from their home, and are looking for a new one.

The Relic

While perusing a local shop, you are drawn to an old, rusty sword. It feels familiar in your hand and when you turn it over you find your name engraved on the blade.

Nayeli Dresdain, the elderly shopkeeper, says the sword has been in this shop for as long as he can remember. Parker White recognizes you, but cannot quite place where from.

The Helm of Slaughter

You find a beautifully crafted helmet. You put it on and after a few moments you hear a voice, "Yes... let the slaughter begin...". You are unable to remove the helmet.

Elisha Hynes suggests you don't wear the helmet until you have it inspected by a wizard. Talia Wynne says a wizard will just try to take it, might as well wear it.

Tiefling Trouble

A tiefling named Rokul is being targeted by a mysterious assassin.

Max Huon seems to think the assassin is one of the Black Birds, a group of hired killers. Bundringo Terryn doesn't think the Black Birds even exist.

The Fog

A strange fog has rolled in to cover the landscape. Anyone who ventures into the fog, is never seen again.

There have been multiple people who claim to have seen someone, or something moving within the fog, including Hassan Payne.
