The trek up into the Morrowdeep hills is not something that is done often. The rush to get the ‘Morrowstone’ was fraught with danger as the mines were more prone to collapsing which made the extraction of the stone dangerous. Regardless of the dwarves from older times warnings on mining Lanternstone, as they called it, nor the warnings of the resident dwarf in Morrowdeep the hunger for Lanternstone increased.
However some events linked to these tones are yet to be fully explained and as the party explore the Morrowdeep hills they find more than they are bargaining for. But let’s dive into the content instead of sitting around and talking about it. So sit back, grab a coffee and let’s roll on in!
Morrowdeep Hills

The gradual incline that they had been walking up for the past hour began to level out and an even walking trail awaited them. The Journal had revealed nothing but there were clues left behind that indicated that someone had come from the mines in the Morrowdeep hills.
As the party pushed past onwards the trees started to thin and the signs of mining became evident. Discarded buckets, broken tool heads, campfires and tents as well as some large piles of shifted earth lined the path and funnelled the party onwards. Soon a small grotto surrounded by hills revealed a cave. The remnants of a mine track and a tipped over cart heralded the entrance to the darkness beyond. But the party’s attention was drawn to the soil underneath. Disturbed as if something had walked along here not once, but a few times.
As they looked towards the darkness and their imaginations began to take hold over what could lie within a rustle from the bushes at the base of some of the trees brought their attention back to the present. A danger sense spread across the party and the natural dip into the mind made for a tactical disadvantage for them and one for would-be attackers if they knew how to use it. However when a mountain popped out from the brushes a sense of relief passed over them.
But this sensation was brief when it started to stalk them and the party caught more movement from behind them. A coating of foam covered the mouth of the large cat as it stalked forward more than just hunger in its eyes. A madness that was throwing away any sense of its own preservation that it had. The party watched as more cats appeared and soon they prepared for battle at the mouth of the Morrowdeep hills cave.
A slight change in pace tonight with a revelation of one of the types of encounters the party can hope to go through this week. With the week not being over yet we have more to come so don’t forget to come back tomorrow for the details of this encounter and perhaps more. Don’t forget that this weekend will see the coming of another Zine so don’t forget to grab a copy for yourself when that’s available. And lastly, as always, don’t forget to roll with advantage,
