BBEG starts whispering to a player to join him.
Structure
Exposition
You wander down the worn road under the fading light; the trees lining the road have leaves and pines of dull reds and yellows. Every once in a while you cross under a tree with deep red leaves that fall around you like blood rain. But the closer you get to the eastern edge of Red Larch, the darker and sicklier the trees become. As you approach the hanging tree, you can feel the dark necrotic magic in the bone-chilling wind. You gather your cloaks tighter around yourselves and hurry along. Finally, you come to the hanging tree, a leafless skeleton of a tree, yet tall and strong, as if in the prime of its life. A corpse frozen in time. A new cadaver swings in the gentle breeze. It’s impossible to recognize the body from here, but dread freezes your blood as you all get the feeling that the body is somehow familiar.
A dwarf glares at you as you pass. He mumbles something under his breath before hurting inside a shack. In fact, all the townsfolk you pass look at you in either anger or fear, sometimes both.
