Seasons of Skyrend
Seasons of Skyrend is a custom 5th edition D&D adventure that focuses on the stories of our characters as they try to survive in the world around them. The year is 164 A.T. The fifth age has been marked by recovery and rebuilding efforts since a great global catastrophe commonly referred to as The Turn. Cities fell, rivers were rerouted, and mountains came crashing down as whole continents were shaken to the bedrock. Our story begins in the city of Karami on the central peninsula on the continent of Carricar. Karami fared better than most cities after The Turn. Like most of the continent, Karami lies in a state of perpetual autumn. Because of where it lies, the city also has much more night than day. Our story begins in The Bard’s Rest, a tavern on the west side of the city. From there, the adventures that will define the fifth age lie ahead. Where we go from there all depends on the choices our players make.

Count Valence has sent a messenger to spread word of the criminal activities of Arannis and Darvin. His first stop is in Fort Barberry, where Veil is trying their best to stop that message. Fair warning: things get worse before they get better.
With Fort Barberry and the troubles of Karami behind them, the simple town of Old Barberry seems like a good place to unwind and prepare for the long journey south. Maybe they can even get into some of the butterfly fun with the locals.
While helping Old Barberry prepare for their annual Butterfly Festival, the locals started showing strange signs of lepidopterism. Darvin and Arannis have been unknowingly tempting fate, but what will happen to them? And what of the townsfolk?
In the wake of the butterfly incident with the shrine to Gossrym, our adventurers are ready to hit the road. Sniffins was waiting by the wagons, but Samudio was nowhere to be seen. They must find their friend and prepare for the bitter cold weather of the south.
The road south to the city of Honey Hollow has more dangers than just the cold. Join us as we meet new acquaintances and make a stop in Medullary Hill. If they just pay a toll, they can keep moving along. If only it were that simple.
While attempting to leave Medullary Hill, a new visitor arrives. It is not here for conversation. And then there's the whole issue with the Skeleton Prince. Biggs is trying to set up a deal for safe passage despite the rest of the group's willingness to leave. Let's find out who had the right idea.
Biggs has big plans for Darvin, Veil, and Arannis, but first they need to accept the deal being offered. Darvin is doing his best to earn their trust while also trying to make sure he and his companions can get back on the road safely. Can he play along long enough to get them all out safely?
It's been a long trek, but our adventurers have finally made it to Honey Hollow. Veil may have an ulterior motive, but Arannis and Darvin have the luxury of getting to know the city. Honey Hollow is open to travelers, and is always willing to accept a helping hand.
The party has agreed to help out an old Half-Dragon named Brizandene, but they have some business to attend to in Honey Hollow first. Veil is eager to finish up their assignment. Meanwhile, Darvin and Arannis find it difficult to remain idle. Each tries to find some semblance of their old routine within the city.
Under the snow in Honey Hollow, Veil and Darvin work diligently to fulfill their duties. Cortland and Mayapple are unaware of the forces working against them, but their fates are not yet sealed. On a lighter note, Arannis is all set to perform at Sweet William's and has even made friends with a local musician. Good for him.
