5th Edition: S2 The Malady of Kings

Gods are moved by greater things than mortal man.

Lonely upon his gilded chair St. Luther, god of Aihrde, Lord of Dreams, King Palatine of Kayomar, father, and husband, sits in restless slumber. He dreams of times long forgotten and people long passed from the world. He knows not that he slumbers, nor that he dreams. He sits, dreaming forgotten dreams, stalking the corridors of his memory, reliving the moments of his life.

Forever is it the malady of kings that they forget.

He has forgotten that he left a world of enemies. He has forgotten the power of wizards and the hatred of man. He has forgotten all this and more.

Vivienne, his Queen and one great love, died. This he knew; but lost in the machinations of his Dreaming were promises made, of a ring he would give her. And for want of this her spirit lingered in the world to haunt her crypt, looking for him and the ring.

The crypt, the Friden Anhohe, is haunted by her ghost. It is up to the characters to find it, discover who or what she is and to free her from her haunted curse. But they are not alone, for an ancient and vile wizard, who wishes to gain access to the Sea of Dreams and to Saint Luther, has learned of her fate and wishes to keep her in this role, for it troubles the Lord of Dreams and makes him vulnerable to the wizard’s attack.

A high-level adventure for a party of 4-8 characters. Play as stand-alone or part of a larger series.
