The PCs once again find themselves facing perilous death in Darkmoon Vale, but this time they are working for a man as dangerous as any monster prowling the shadowy forest. Thuldrin Kreed, gavel of the sinister Lumber Consortium, has long ruled Falcon's Hollow with a clenched fist, feeding on the misery of its common folk. When some undetermined and insidious force menaces his interests in the vale and leaves a camp of lumberjacks slaughtered in the night, Kreed requires a band of brave fools to deal with the threat.
