Once every eight years the fantastic Witchlight Carnival touches down on your world, bringing joy to one settlement after the next. It’s owners, Mister Witch and Mister Light, know how to put on a good show. But there’s more to this magical extravaganza than meets the eye!

The Pit of Bones was supposed to be dead. A crumbling arena in the dirt, where the worst criminals were thrown to die quietly.

Not anymore.

In the last ten years, it's become the most infamous spectacle in the realm. Its new owner, Kayla Black Fox, turned a death pit into gold. They say she knows the arena better than anyone - because she survived it. 100 rounds. Thrown in by her own father, the Judge.

Now your names have reached her box.

You and your party have made a name for yourselves on the road - heroic stories, close calls, the kind of tales that make a good crowd cheer. Kayla has heard them. She has sent a personal invitation:

Come watch the fights as my honored guests. Drinks on the house. And bring a plus one.

An invitation from the Owner herself. A night of free food, cheap wine, and the best bloodsport in the realm. What could go wrong?

After years of war, the Empire has run out of coin to pay its soldiers. With morale crumbling and its armies losing ground, the Empire is on the brink of defeat.

In one final, desperate attempt to fund its war effort, the Empire sends the last remnants of its loyal soldiers to capture Goldstock, a fortress guarding the largest gold mine in the region.

The castle is defended by only 100 men, but its formidable walls have held off every assault, and it is only a matter of time before reinforcements arrive. Unwilling to sacrifice his soldiers in a costly siege, the commander turns to a different solution: mercenaries.

That's where you come in.

Hired with the promise of a share of the riches hidden within, your mission is simple: get the gold out by any means necessary.
