Plot Hooks

Everyone saw the King die on the battlefield, and yet he just gave the victory speech a day later.

Sarab Belet is wondering if it's magic, or just an actor.

For generations, the people of this valley have given an offering to a local deity on a hill, and a good harvest and prosperity have followed. Recently, the locals erected a monument at the place of offering. Since then, their crops have begun to fail.

Elias Weston believes the offerings of food were wasteful, and that the monument is a more permanent showing of their devotion. Nena Everett fears the monument was a mistake, and now a larger show of devotion is necessary.

A nearby mine has closed, laying off a hundred workers, who now have no idea how they're going to support themselves and their families.

Frances Mehmed thinks the owner of the mine is up to something shady.

The party is flagged down by a boy who is soaking wet. He leads the party to a nearby pond and dives under with them, leading everyone to an underground cave. The boy says his friend was taken while they were exploring.

The cave wall has three names carved into it. Ruby Roundtree, Sisco Dawnpelt, and Tiffany Kaye.

A body is found with a note clutched in its hand. The party feels as though the note should be delivered to the dead man's wife.

Katrina Reddy is the only person who can decipher the code written hastily at the bottom of the note.

All druids have suddenly turned evil.

A militia led by Rowan Loch are going to hunt down druids.

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 Hadwell is rooting for the woman.

As spring arrives in the valley, the winter thaw never occurs. The river stays frozen and a chill wind blows in from the mountain pass in the north.

Hiram Hamid fears they will run out of wood. Sohali Selentia cannot get out onto the lake to fish.

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

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