Flames of Freedom: Beginnings
 |
The long march to freedom begins here. The world's attention is drawn to the Americas as the stirrings of revolution begin. As both sides draw up their plans of war¸ other forces lurk in the shadows¸ far more sinister than any could imagine¸ prowling massive forests and forgotten tunnels¸ with too few heroes to combat them. An ancient enemy sows seeds of strife¸ and a much larger battle than is about to begin¸ one for the very soul of the world¸ is about to begin. While Colonists cry for freedom and Loyalists struggle to reconcile with England¸ dark enemies gnaw and plague the unsuspecting. In Boston¸ the siege grinds on¸ but the end is in sight. The time is coming to break the yoke of tyranny on the city that sparked the revolution. Secret plots¸ sinister cults¸ and occult mysteries abound as you explore the city of Boston during the last days of the siege. You are there at the start of the American Revolution¸ caught up in a series of events that will take you from one end of the city to the other.
Victory in Boston¸ however¸ is short-lived. Spring¸ 1776. The Second Continental Congress works at creating a new nation. But as they debate¸ shadowy forces prepare to strike. Welcome to Philadelphia. William Penn's model city is one of the richest in the Thirteen Colonies¸ and stands at the heart of the Revolution. Home to book shops¸ thinkers¸ and a growing intellectual class¸ the city hides those with knowledge of a more questionable nature. With the leadership of the Revolution quartered here¸ the city is awash with plots¸ intrigues¸ and innumerable dangers meet - and it is far from certain whose plans will succeed. As Congress works¸ the Heroes scour the City of Brotherly Love for a friend's missing son. Not all is as it appears¸ and soon their simple quest turns into a race against time to prevent a tragedy that could kill the movement of American independence before it has truly begun.
Flames of Freedom: Beginnings¸ is the first volume in an epic campaign for Colonial Gothic. In this book you will find our guide to the great cities of Boston and Philadelphia¸ and a ready-to-play adventure which sets the stage for the entire Revolution.
