This story follows directly from the preceding tale "A Marketplace Mystery", as the fellowship is roused the next morning in a flurry of commotion by the market...
A ledger of survival, discovery, and the pursuit of forgotten truths. From the muck and mystery of the marshes to the looming shadows of the Misty Mountains, a fellowship of oddly paired heroes commits to fighting a fight that they know is beyond them, seeking answers, hoping to protect those they love, and some, even keen to find treasure along the way.
The following are recaps of session 3 and 4 of Where Webs Whisper. Originally starting as 'Muck and Mystery in the Marshes' the story campaign grew larger. Enjoy!
Author’s Note: This piece was shaped with a little help from AI. It provided assistance on things like the structuring, some names, shortening some verbose language/ideas as I'd written, and gave me the odd turn of phrase here and there.
One night, while wounded and made feverish by the venom of an Ungoledain blade, Adel had a vision through a dream. In the dream he saw the Morgul Vale and the once great city of Minas Ithil, glowing in an ethereal and ghastly haze. He saw the spiders of Mirkwood marching south to Mordor, having gathered in a dark woodland unknown to him.
