Generic Fantasy Campaign Seed #458472

Your party is exiting the settled lands of the south for fortune and glory in the untamed wilderness of Hyperborea;
On your way to the most remote outpost of the Acadian Empire, you make camp one night in a small grove beside the rough path you've been following for the past few days.

An old man wanders in from the cold, windswept night to sit by your fire, clad in rags and leaning heavily on a crooked staff.
He offers up what little knowledge he possesses in exchange for his place and a share of the meal.

After he wolfs down what food he's offered, he regales you with this tale-

"Shrouded in a sunless forest, at the foot of the Daggerfall mountains, there lies a keep, built in a forgotten age.

Hidden in its endless subterranean chambers are vaults containing treasure beyond your imagination.

If one could conquer its hordes of guardians, both human and bestial, they would attain an array of unspeakable powers and artifacts, and wealth the likes of which no god has ever seen.

All this and more lie within the Castle of Sorrows!"
