One day, in the gloom of a tavern the characters come across a messenger about Smolla, a haughty knight who wants to find a case known as Malkor's Wrath
The journey is eventful with unexpected encounters and challenges and ends at the foot of a hill. There is a strangely shaped pond surrounded by the remains of dead animals. The place is called Coppergate
The way in is challenging - something is lurking here. There is a blockage of rubble but also unexpected guests in the form of D6 dwarves and a flock of vampire bats. There is a deadly challenge in the form of a cave-in.
