In our first episode, we see our heroes grouping up after attending the funeral ceremony of their mutual friend, Saltur Wahoo. At the funeral, they were approached by two women, one of whom is afflicted by a global "death curse." These individuals enlisted the party to help extort a lich for information regarding the curse, and stealing a spellbook from the lich's cellar is the goal. Now, we join our heroes as they enlist another to the cause and prepare for the journey.
