The Arrival

While resting under an ancient standing stone, you feel a sudden rumbling, and a spark of light. After it passes there is a bipedal being lying unconscious at the base of the stone wearing strange clothing. She is unconscious.

Doran Hamid saw the widower digging up his wife's grave.

The Book of Many Stories

A thick tome is found deep in a dungeon. The pages are blank unless only one person is looking at them. Then it appears to tell a story which may have more to do with reality, than fiction.

Katinka Belet has heard of the book, and warns that no one should read it.

Lambs to the Slaughter
