We venture into an ancient and savage world with the upcoming TTRPG Conan: The Hyborian Age by Monolith Board Games, featuring the starter adventure The Seal of Acheron.

The ancient walls of Bothild's Lode have been breached, the pitch black ceilings aglimmer with stars. The ancient markings and reliefs have been vandalized by what appears to be a horde of goblins waiting in the large, central chamber. Are they here for riches or some other nefarious reason? Either way, Donovon has a hunch something valuable is waiting...

After a midnight battle lit by fire, the black-cloaked brigands lying in heaps, another emerges from the blaze. Aelerion of Blackwater. The champion of Cerriel's father, the duke from a far off land.

The woman's tears finally dry, her son now safe in her arms. The onlookers begin to step away, returning to their posts and duties. Outskirt feels renewed, though an emptiness lurks in the form of the blackened remains of the Three Staggs Inn. Will this truly be a moment of respite?

Free from the spider's web but failed to rescue the missing child in Oracle Cave, the adventurers seek to uphold the bargain by dispatching the orcs deeper in the cave. It gets personal, when a demonic voice whispers to Donovan and his wife's burial urn is missing. They discover it floating in a ball of fire suspended over a black pit, with two goblins ready to claim it for their own.

Bruised and bloody with one nearly lost, the party breaths a sigh of relief as the final spider crumples dead. But there is a voice whispering through the tunnels that says, "What have you done to my children?"

After battling a swarm of spiders, the party sits to rest, to take a moment and question whether or not journying to Oracle Cave was a sound idea. Webs curtain the walls slick with moisture.
