The RAIN make a daring sacrifice, leaving one of their own behind in the Shadowfell—but not without a plan. All they need to do is survive long enough for it to succeed. As they navigate the perils of the unknown, a new challenge looms: the sprawling city of Avernys. Will they endure the darkness and find their footing in this mysterious city, or will unseen dangers strike when they least expect it?
The true horrors of the Shadowfell begin to press in, testing the limits of hope and sanity. Despair creeps into the hearts of the travelers and the RAIN alike. Who will muster the strength to endure, and who will succumb to the overwhelming darkness?
The RAIN seek refuge from the horrors of the Shadowfell, but rest is elusive as nightmares haunt their sleep. With the threat of the Nightmen's return, they must leave the cave and press on. Along the way, they encounter mysterious travelers. Are they allies or yet another danger born of the Shadowfell? Trust is fragile, and questions abound: who are these strangers, and what secrets do they carry?
The Corpse Mound. It’s a twisted amalgamation of decaying bodies, Towering and grotesque, animated by some malevolent force. The stench of death thickens the air as they realize this horror is not just a fight for survival, but a battle against something that should never have existed. Will they conquer the unholy Corpse Mound, or will they be consumed by the very dead it commands?
The RAIN finds themselves trapped within the depths of the Nightman’s cave… or are they? Shadows shift, opening a path, tempting them to escape. They think it has to be a trap, yet they descend deeper, determined to finish off the last of the Nightmen. Little do they know, each step only delays the inevitable...
The Rain seeks shelter from a relentless storm in a place where echoes of their past sins still whisper in the darkness. Things quickly turn into a nightmare as the Rain comes face to face with the Nightmen, the very beings they destroyed all those years ago. The Nightmen are back, fueled by vengeance. Can the Rain survive the wrath of those they left behind, or will this confrontation finally consume them?
The party refuses to back down, heading south toward the ominous Nightmen Cave, despite worsening weather, treacherous roads, and NPCs warning them to turn back. But what drives them toward this perilous destination? Why is reaching the cave so crucial, and why can't anyone stop them?

The lines between the game and reality blur as a mysterious voice speaks directly to the players, warning them that their DM is stalling to avoid the Shadowfell. Key details, like Airis's letter, have been withheld, and now the Rain must confront their DM’s fears while heading toward the Nightmen Cave.

As The RAIN awaits a message from the Shields of the Many, they turn their attention to the eerie mysteries of their new keep. Drawn to the strange energy in the basement, they face undead guardians, only to be left with more questions than answers.

The group enjoys a brief respite with Lindsey’s memory restored and heartfelt conversations shared. But even within the comfort of their new home, an uneasy tension lingers. The road ahead is uncertain, and this calm may be their last for a long time.
With The RAIN scattered, Nadia is left alone, questioning her place in the group. Haunted by doubts and past battles, she heads to Bonaborough, seeking help from Dundle, only to find indifference and forgotten memories. But in a world of magic, nothing is ever as it seems.
After emerging from the depths, Ishi is drawn to the Kingdom's Strength Games, determined to prove his legendary might. His brothers, Kawa and Kasia, have tracked him across the kingdom, arriving in Zasia with urgent intentions. As Ishi battles through one brutal challenge after another, a question gnaws at him—why have his brothers followed him now? As the games intensify, so does the mystery surrounding their presence.

With a final confrontation ahead, will The RAIN emerge stronger, or will the shadows between them grow too deep to bridge?
