The Opening

“My silver shipment is overdue and my foreman has gone silent. Reach the Silver Peak mine, find my lockbox, and bring it back safely. I will pay you fifty gold pieces for its return, no questions asked.”

— Hook · Retrieval and Investigation

Set the Scene

Stakes

If the elemental heart is not contained, the surrounding village will be consumed by a permanent localized blizzard.

Ticking Clock·The storm outside is worsening. Every hour spent inside the mine increases the DC of the survival checks to return home safely.

Background Lore

The Silver Peak mine was built over an ancient site of elemental power. Small leaks of icy energy are common, but usually harmless if the ventilation shafts are kept clear.

What the World Knows

A routine silver mine has experienced a minor collapse or strike, and the owner needs his latest haul recovered before the mountain passes freeze over completely.
