Introduction to the World
The world that the younger of you know is a dangerous place. It wasn’t always this way, or so you have heard. Monsters used to be a rarity, but now seem to be spawning in ever increasing rates. Strange abominations seem to be more and more frequent. Protection and safety seem to be a luxury left to the larger cities. Neverwinter is more or less untouched by the ravages of this new world. Waterdeep is being rebuilt and many adventurers are hired every day to work on the project.
Most never return.
The wall has new sections and is as strong as ever. Rickenshire is in ruins. Silverymoon stands tall and is home to many who have found it a safe haven. Under the protection of The Singer of Blades, General Aratril, Silverymoon is one of the safest cities to be in. Mirabar has been rebuilt and is under the protection of Gish, brother of Aratril. Through it all, it seems the gods have grown silent. While their followers still wield just as much power as before, they no longer hear the voice of their gods.
