The Opening

“The bells of Oakhaven have stopped ringing, replaced by a rhythmic humming that makes your teeth ache. A pale child stands at the tavern door, claiming the village's voices have been stolen by the old well. She holds out a single, obsidian tuning fork and whispers, 'Make them stop singing.'”

— Hook · Dungeon Crawl and Investigation

Set the Scene

The party approaches Oakhaven, where the air vibrates with a frequency so low it vibrates the marrow in their bones. No birds sing, and the villagers move in a frantic, pantomimed silence.

Elara the Echo

She approaches with unnatural stillness, her voice appearing directly in the minds of the party as a flickering psychic projection.

Rumours

d3 · table
  1. 01
    The bells of Oakhaven haven't rung in a week, yet the village feels louder than ever.
  2. 02
    A pale child was seen wandering the outskirts, handing out obsidian tuning forks.
  3. 03
    The monks at the well haven't come up for supplies since the solstice earthquake.
Stakes

If the resonance reaches its peak, the entire village will be pulled into the Shadowfell, leaving behind nothing but a silent, grey crater.

Ticking Clock·The 'Final Note' vibrates louder every hour; the party has roughly six hours before the transition to the Shadowfell becomes permanent.

Background Lore

The Order of Resonant Truth was a group of monks dedicated to healing through sacred sound. They built their monastery over a natural acoustic chamber deep underground. During a recent ritual, a betrayal led to the accidental summoning of an entity from the Shadowfell that consumes vibration.

What the World Knows

A freak earthquake damaged the local monastery's catacombs, and a strange magical sickness has rendered the local population mute. The monks need brave souls to enter the well and fix the structural damage that is leaking toxic energy.
