The Talking Birds

Birds have begun talking in common. And they're all rude.

Anya Malfoy got into a fist fight with a mouthy raven.

Fetch Quest

The forest warden has asked you to cull seven black bears as their population has been getting out of control. The innkeeper asks your to bring him five intact bear livers.

Everyone in town repeats the same greetings over and over. Olivia Moran won't speak to you until you prove yourself to the town.

Where is Your Rider?

A riderless horse, with tack and saddle, approaches you and will not leave you alone. When you climb onto its back, it gallops to the west.

Stella Hogan has been missing in this region for days.

A Dire Path

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

Akdir Kastrix feels the path was blocked on purpose. Caroc Silverleaf is comfortable going underground.

Slippery When Icy

Though the temperature has not changed, a thick layer of ice has covered everything within miles.

Safia Windrunner fell and broke their leg.

A Fungus Among Us

Odd mushrooms have sprouted up in the forest. And on anyone who touches them. Those infected seem to be acting...strangely.

Reiko Carnage has one of the mushrooms growing on their forehead.

The Invisible Elf

After ingesting a strange plant, an elf has turned invisible.

Nikolas Amal thinks the invisible elf has been stealing things from people.

Dragon King

An ancient dragon has eaten the rightful King and all of his heirs. He now lives in the throne room and is demanding to be called King.

Derrick Hemlock doesn't really care who the king is.

The Shop

A traveling salesman claims he can get anything for anyone. For a price. He's set up shop just outside of town.

Ismael Beech is wondering if the salesman can get his hands on a magical necklace.
