The Prophecy#
The campaign begins in a rural inn called The Sour Vintage. The heroes are summoned by the goddess Kyrah, who has disguised herself as a traveling poet.
The Boar Hunt#
Kyrah explains that the Oracle has had a vision which revealed the heroes as the chosen warriors who will prevent the “doom of Thylea.” In order to confirm this, the heroes must defeat a monstrous boar which the Titans, Sydon and Lutheria, sent to ravage the countryside.
Temple of the Oracle#
After dealing with the Great Boar, the heroes travel to see the Oracle, who has been captured by a hag. After rescuing her, the heroes learn that they must complete three ‘Great Labors’ in order to prepare for their confrontation with the Titans:
Drink from the Horn of Balmytria
Light the fires of the Mithral Forge
Recover the weapons of the first Dragonlord
The Great Labors#
Kyrah suggests that the heroes begin their Labors in the city of Estoria. It is ruled by King Pythor, one of the Five Gods, who should prove helpful.
The King’s Daughter#
But first, King Pythor needs the heroes’ assistance to rescue his daughter from being sacrificed to Sydon. Once this is done, Pythor throws a celebration for the heroes and offers them guidance for their quest. The heroes also meet Pythor’s father, an absent-minded dwarf who claims to be the god Volkan.
The Great Labors#
The heroes can use Estoria as a base as they search for clues and complete each of the Great Labors. The Labors require them to visit three locations—the Mithral Mines, the Mossy Temple, and the Necropolis at Telamok. Each of these dungeons can be reached with a half-day journey from the city.
The Dream#
Once the heroes recover the Horn of Balmytria, they must drink from it to complete their task. This triggers a dream where two more Labors are revealed—the heroes must recover a ship called the Ultros and an ancient artifact called the Antikythera.
Summoned to Mytros#
Once the heroes have accomplished all of the Labors, King Acastus of Mytros sends a detachment of soldiers mounted on dragons to invite the heroes to his city for an audience. King Acastus is revered across the lands, for he seeks to restore the ancient order of the Dragonlords.
The Dragonlords#
When the heroes arrive in Mytros, the city is assailed by hurricanes sent by Sydon, the Lord of Storms.
The Storm#
As the Oracle’s Chosen Ones, the heroes are expected to quell the anger of the Titan, and they are faced with a difficult choice. Once this is done, King Acastus thanks the heroes and rewards them with a map to the legendary trireme, the Ultros—the only ship that can brave the storms of the Forgotten Sea.
The City of Mytros#
The heroes meet Queen Vallus, the Goddess of Wisdom, who offers the heroes counsel and warns them about the king’s ambitions. Afterwards, the heroes are free to spend time exploring the city.
The Dead Falls#
Eventually, the heroes must travel to the Dead Falls to battle the undead crew of the Ultros and recover the ship for themselves. They encounter the ghost of an ancient Dragonlord, Estor Arkelander.
The Celebration#
Once the Ultros has been recovered, the heroes return to Mytros, and Vallus throws a massive celebration in their honor.
