”The world had been utterly swallowed by the Cold. Yule was long behind them now; the memory of warmth and festivities was distant. Day after day, the light grew thinner, a pale, pallid ghost that did little to pierce the gloom, leaving the ground permanently locked beneath an iron-hard frost. This was the deep, crushing stillness of a mid-winter that promised no end.

But for the opportunistic, this deep freeze was also a profound signal.

From the Tower of Grommel, the Wizards had issued an exciting proclamation: The legendary Slumbering Heart was stirring, its immense power was causing the land to react. The Wizards, known to pay fine sums of gold for Moonstones, now offered a truly colossal bounty for the individual who could successfully deliver the Heart itself.

Rival Troopes, driven by a desperate blend of greed and the promise of untold riches, risked treacherous passage through the frozen wastes. Their resolve was fuelled by a single, sobering truth: The window for extraction was brutally brief. The bitter cold was merely the first defence, as deeper dangers lay on the path ahead”

Grubstone is a new narrative event series which connects each game of the event day into an overarching story, with extra bonuses to collect, in the form of a Grubstone (a special green Moonstone with extra special properties)

Our event is being held in the northwest of England, at Bulwark Games, on the 28th February. We hope to see you there!
