The Road to Swordfall
![]() |
2ND-LEVEL ADVENTURE. 5E COMPATIBLE.
The road to the remote village of Swordfall is a long and winding one. It takes pilgrims who wish to visit the holy site from the main trade road¸ through the hills¸ and into the mountains where once¸ thousands of years ago¸ two gods engaged in an epic battle. Now¸ all that remains of the battlefield is a lone sword¸ several hundred feet tall¸ embedded in the ground at the center of a massive crater. Over the years¸ a large temple to Thuul¸ god of battle¸ sprung up around the site. Now¸ warriors and fighters from across the land travel to Swordfall to pay their respects once in their lifetime. Recently¸ however¸ pilgrims have begun going missing. Somewhere between the main road and Swordfall itself¸ something¸ or someone¸ has been waylaying travelers. Unbeknownst to most¸ a cult to Ghenna has taken over one of the lone inns along the route and has begun using it to capture and sacrifice pilgrims to their own dark god. Unless a group of adventurers can stop them¸ the sacrifices won't stop.
