Hillhouse

You’re back on the street with the houses of Hillhouse lined up alongside. Do you want to e. There’s an inn right beside the road, where you could take a rest. Do you * turn in at the inn or * turn your back on the place?


You have reached New Lowangen. Apparently, the only thing this dump has in common with Lowangen is the name. The road opens to a square surrounded by a few houses. There’s a temple of Praios in the middle, and an inn at the southern edge of the square. Do you * enter the temple, * pay a visit to the inn, * or journey on?

Back on the market square, you have to decide again. This time, do you […]


You’ve reached Reichsend. Without the magnificent temple of Praios and the small “Emperor’s Pride” inn, you would’ve been hard pressed to notice the few houses actually make up a village of their own. Do you take the opportunity to * gawk at the interior of the sumptuously decorated temple, * visit the inn, * or leave the village again?

After closing the door behind you, you are free to […].


The idyllic village of Nordhag is situated between pleasant meadows. In the middle of the village, there is the “Gryphon’s Fordian” inn. Do you * take a break inside the inn or * wear down your shoes some more?

Back on the outside, the question is whether you once more […].


At the bank of the Svellt, you reach a small settlement of houses grouped around the temple of Tsa. The “Young Svellt” inn offers weary travelers an opportunity to rest and regain their strength. Are you going to * visit the temple, * visit the inn, * or walk on?

You’re back in the village. Do you […].


You come upon a small town by the bank of the Svall. It appears deserted. Apparently, most of the inhabitants have fled to Lowangen. Even so, there is an inn in the town center that appears to be open for business. Do you * turn in at the inn for a break or * do as most of the inhabitants have done and get out?

You are back on the empty street. Now what? Do you […].


The village of Svellmia, situated at the confluence of Svellt and Svall, is no more than a small river harbor. A small inn offers a chance to rest and relax. Do you * haunt the inn, * check the harbor for a boat leaving sometime during the next few days, * or continue your journey by foot?


When you reach the harbor, you see a skipper just loading up his boat. He says he wants to leave four hours from now and would be prepared to take you along for the following amounts. You’d have to pay up front though and board immediately.

  • 9 ducats for passage to Tiefhusen
  • 12 ducats for passage to Hilvalla
  • 15 ducats for passage to Norhus
  • Of course, you can also just go back into the village.

What a pity. You haven’t got the money for a boat trip!

You’re back in the village center. Do you […].


You reach a temple of Tsa on a small clearing in the middle of the woods. There are a few wooden cabins on the edge of the clearing, under the cover of the trees.
Do you want to * visit the temple or * continue your journey?

You’re back outside. Now do you […].


To call Hilvalla a village would be pushing it. All this place has to offer is the ferry station and the inn. So, how about it? Do you * visit the inn, * go to the ferry station * or just get away from here like everybody else seems to have done already?


There is nobody at the ferry station right now, but you find the following notice:
“Ferry traffic continues. To cross over, leave here in westerly direction. A boat trip in both directions is available on request.” Do you want to

  • take the boat to Norhus for 5 ducats,
  • take the boat to Tiefhusen for 3 ducats,
  • or go back outside for a different choice?

Well then, what’ll you do next? Do you […].


You have arrived at Norhus, an important traffic knot within the Svellt Dale. The Svellt embankment road goes through here, and the road to Riva goes off from Norhus, too. Small wonder there’s a large inn situated in this town. Do you * visit the inn, * look for a ship, to go up or down the river, * or continue traveling by foot?


When you reach the river, you see a boat going upstream. You call to the skipper and ask whether he’d take you on, and he answers: “I’ll take ye to Tiefhusen for 6 ducats, but I can’t call at Hilvalla, fer want of paying the fees there last time.” Do you want to * induce the skipper to drop anchor, or * return into town?


You go back to the crossroads. Now you’re standing in front of the inn. Do you […].
