Marsember Madness

28 Flamerule, 1489

Our mystery unfolds on the banks of the Dragonmere. The Kingdom of Cormyr, once a thriving political force on the Inner Sea, still aches from the hardships of decades of war with its neighbors. Though the threat of the Shadovar Empire has passed, the damage wrought by their invasion has torn open old wounds and dug up secrets that should have long stayed buried.

Our campaign will begin on the outskirts of Marsember, the largest port city in the kingdom. A dispute between the lord of the city and the kingdom at large over tax hikes has unexpectedly closed the cities gates and ports to outsiders, leaving you waylaid in the small town of Promise. While waiting for word on when and how to get into the city, the party will find threads that lead them to the bigger dangers of the campaign, and a threat worse than the Shadovar Empire.
