The complete one-volume edition
YOU ARE DROW. RISE AGAIN.
Three and a half years after the fall of Holoth, the drow capital has been rebuilt as Hopeholme, an occupied city shaped by surveillance, forced reeducation, and the will of the victorious Coalition. The old Houses are scattered. The Spider Goddess has withdrawn her favor. The Coalition believes the drow have finally been subjugated.
THEY ARE WRONG.
You are drow, sent beyond Hopeholme’s walls to recover and destroy the last relics of your people. A resistance hidden beneath the city’s routines sees another possibility. To resist and survive, you must infiltrate forbidden places, deceive enemies far beyond your capabilities, and brave the Venom-scarred ruins of a fallen empire. Every success may loosen the Coalition’s grip, deepen the Spider Goddess’s interest, or shape what the drow become next.
This limited collectible hardcover brings the complete adventure and Player’s Guide together in one premium volume.
