Prelude: Scales of War
Introduction
An army carrying the banner of Takhisis, the Dragon Queen marches to war, its ranks filled with monstrous, dragon-like beings that revel in destruction. This Dragon Army now encroaches on Solamnia, where its agents already strike beyond the nation’s borders, and several farms and garrisons have been sacked.

Artanis Brightblade, Merituuli Kaiutin, Meryelle Keryndon, and Modri, your roads have converged and the three of you are clearly headed in the same direction. Whether you’re specifically headed to Vogler is either of your guesses, but at the very least, you all find each other to be fairly good company.
As you travel down the road, you hear quivering scream from around the next corner. “Please, help!” a young man shouts as he rushes around a bend ahead and races toward you. He’s terrified and barely coherent in his frantic pleas for help.
