Three wretched adventurers awaken in a mysterious wagon, tasked with harvesting grotesque ingredients from a cursed valley for a mad king’s banquet, but violence and eerie omens soon mark their path toward ancient horrors lurking beneath frozen peaks.
The SCVM breached a hidden glacier crypt, braved illusions, traps, and undead to shave lich-moss from Knogbrüth’s crowned skull, then fled into the waning light as the reawakened corpse howled in their wake.
After gorging beside the Butcher’s wagon, the SCVM endured a cat-sized carrion-bee onslaught, scorched their hive to seize bone-marrow honey from a titan’s carcass, accidentally kindled the forest, and trudged south toward a blighted chapel to seek ember fungus.
The SCVM complete their quest to obtain the ingredients for the king’s feast and deliver them to the Sous’s kitchen.
