When all hope is lost, our dreams can become a means of escape... or a call for help. For several days, elves in your travelling band keep having recurring dreams. You see a bleak tower made of dead white wood outside the Forest you call home. Some lost souls are imprisoned there by forces of darkness and despair, longing for freedom and fearing for their lives. Unable to turn a blind eye to this plea for help, you embark on a perilous journey through the forlorn Broken Mountains in search of a tower shrouded in sorrow.

This is a test of our own PbtA-based game about elves living in a magical forest called the Emerald Sea. Familiarity with the PbtA engine is not necessary.
