Main Plot: The Marks
After arriving in Prith each of our protagonists develops a burning red mark on their skin. Where have these marks come from? Why do they have these marks? What does this mean for them?
The marks are a circular shape although have a distinctive pattern. All of the marks are identical but appear on different parts of the body. When they arrived they caused great pain but that seems to have subsided.

Plot points/Scenes
Session 2
After meeting the half-elf wizard Adran, the party learned two things about the marks.1 - they contain magic, and provide each of them with the ability to cast a certain spell
2 - The marks are soul shards. Soul shards were a powerful magic item, able to contain the soul of the wearer when they died, preventing their soul from leaving the material plane. Although thought to be a useful tool, it was found that once held within the shard a soul could not be retrieved. Because of this they were banned, and any that remained were destroyed. As far as anyone

Adran informed the players that there are new marked expected to arrive. There are new marked cycles every few months - it has taken Adran a while to figure out the formula but with the help of Addison he has done it.
