Description

Something stinks, traveler. The air to the west is rotten with malice.

Shimmerbough has long been a peaceful way station along the Path of Rebirth. The faeries there delight in revelry and celebration. But now their glade has fallen silent.

Scouts bring reports of the strange masked night fae. I know little other than that they are a threat.

For the sake of Ardenweald, they must be eliminated. Slay any you encounter.
