Call of Cthulhu: Down Darker Trails ”Missouri Crossing” Chapter 21: Whispers Before the Harvest
On a cold Sunday in Missouri Crossing, the settlers gather for mass and to finally lay the unknown woman from the river to rest. As Father Nas prays over an unclaimed grave, talk of law, safety, and the coming winter hangs heavy in the air. Bjorn, Gregory, and Russ quietly lay plans to confront the men who profit most from the town’s vices, hoping answers about the death might be forced into the light. Meanwhile, Margaret’s attempt to learn more through Carol takes a disturbing turn, hinting that something unseen is reaching into people’s minds. Amid it all, Gregory is reminded that life goes on—his eldest daughter looking toward the harvest dance and the future, even as unseen dangers close in around them.
About the Chronicle
Call of Cthulhu – Down Darker Trails: Missouri Crossing is a Western horror campaign set in 1867, using the Down Darker Trails supplement for Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition. The story follows the founding generations of Missouri Crossing, a rough camp town in what will one day become Bismarck, North Dakota—decades before the events of The Ultimate Evil. As immigrants, veterans, and drifters stake their claim on a cold, contested landscape, they must navigate community, lawlessness, prejudice, and the brutal realities of frontier life. Against this backdrop of manifest destiny, “northern horror” takes shape: long distances, bitter weather, scarce resources, and the creeping realization that some things lurking beyond the firelight are far worse than bandits or hunger.
