This adventure for DnD 2024 (5e) characters of 1st to 3rd level features lethal winter hazards, chronicles the clashing cultures around Rybalka, and unveils dark forces of the cursed woodlands.
A gifted young mage comes home to the snow-shrouded frontier village of Rybalka after years of study, only to find her family shattered amid unanswered questions about her mother’s recent death. When she disappears into the unforgiving wilds in search of answers, it’s up to your fledgling heroes to track her down. When she awakens ancient, malevolent forces, will the characters help her confront the dark secrets of her past, or will her grief and power unleash the devastating wrath of The Red Tree of Grudges?

I am confused.. The title of the email I received is “Project Update #5: Adventure Arcs – Assemble DnD 2024 Adventures your way! (Canceled) by AAW Games”
Then you rant about how excited you are….
“I’m very excited to share a project that my team and I have been working on for almost two years, the first chapter of which has been completed.
The Red Tree of Grudges: Chapter One
This is an introductory adventure compatible with D&D 2024.

Thank you for reading. I hope you have an amazing week!”
Which is it?
And the adventure part one is still in pieces…….
Hello Brian!
Thanks for writing.
We originally ran a Kickstarter (late 2024) but subsequently canceled it and continued working on the project in a digital format. I wanted to notify those backers who were interested in seeing this come to fruition- hence the update to the project that I sent via Kickstarter. Kickstarter just automatically amends my update/email subject with the “(canceled)” bit. Unfortunately, I cannot control how they have that set up on their end. Sorry for any confusion that this caused you, it was not my intention.
Yes, Chapter One is in multiple pieces that may be run sequentially or plugged into your own games as you see fit (modular). That is the idea behind Adventure Arcs so regardless of how you’d like to use them they are ready for you.
