Hello Travellers!

For generations, Ostenwold was a humble smattering of homes and farms along the river Ost, a quiet peaceful hamlet with little connection to the outside world. 30 years ago two retired adventurers, the human Horst Blackfoot and the elf Déulara Tauranis, chose to settle down and spend their hard earned gold on building The Sanguine Dawn Inn. At the time, this was the only safe resting place for travellers on the long march between civilised areas, and soon become a regular stopover for merchant caravans and travelling nobility.

Under Horst and Déularas stewardship, Ostenwold quickly grew. Horst set up the Eastwatch Garrison to keep the area free from bandits and predatory monsters, before handing over the reins and starting his own smithy. Déulara took on much of the work of government, until the Capital noticed the growing importance of the town and sent their own representative. Déulara returned to her day-to-day work at the Sanguine Dawn, but many of the townsfolk still look to her as the rightful leader and seek her council behind the back of the new mayor.

In the decades that have passed since Horst and Déulara's arrival, Ostenwold has seen explosive growth, great prosperity and peace, but in the last couple of years tensions between the original inhabitants and the newcomers have grown. Trust in the new garrison commander is low, monsters have been reported roaming the woods to the north-west, thefts have been reported in Dockside, and rumours of a smuggler's den intermingle with talk of grave robbers at the Church of the Everlight. Even the Ungrimsts, one of Ostenwold's oldest families, have stopped talking to each other and no one has heard from the wizard Dresden for quite some time.
