Welcome everyone to tonight's session of Call of Cthulhu. It's 1955, and the First Indochina War has recently ended with the Geneva Accords partitioning Vietnam. The French colonial presence is withdrawing, leaving behind decades of occupation and cultural disruption. Our investigators are part of an international academic expedition, ostensibly studying the aftermath of colonialism and collecting artifacts before they're lost to time. The North Vietnamese government has granted limited access to certain historical sites, but they're watching you closely.
