...and so the page turns to a new tale. With adventure just on the horizon, five individuals from across the realm answer the call of renowned adventurer, '''Craig Firebrand'''. After the '''Sankofa Tragedy''', adventuring parties were banned and in their place new factions of power fight for control in their absence. '''Craig''' looks to defy the world powers that forsook heroes and show them how much the world needs its heroes. Five adventurers, five stories, one purpose. Adventure is calling...

The soon to be founders of '''Croak and Dagger''' meet on the docks of the capitol of the Human Kingdom, '''Meadowcraft'''. K'jalis, Clymene, Omerok, Barbatos, and Robyn all gather at the address provided on the bottom of a crumpled piece of parchment paper with a poor illustration of one, '''Craig Firebrand'''. They're a little underwhelmed to see that Craig has been forced to rent out a room at a local fishery as his base of operations. Nobody said starting an adventuring party was going to be easy. During the meeting, a well-dressed, very well-groomed knight is in the midst of scolding Craig, before leaving with a huff. Craig reveals the knight to be '''Roland Castille''', an officer in the human military and the son of '''Edgar Castille''', Craig's old adventuring buddy. Craig introduces the group to '''Quoruk''' and '''Dennis''', a rough looking Aarakocra and a Firbolg in need of a bath, who helped Craig secure the room at the fishery. The promised daring, high-octane adventuring party that Craig promised is only eight people strong. Craig promises the five recruits that if they stick around long enough, run enough dirty, gritty jobs, that their labors will be very well rewarded. They just have to trust Craig and his process. This is when their first contract comes in from the small autumnal town of Oakvale.

Mayor '''Tobias Fillmore''' greets Croak and Dagger outside the town hall and explains to them that Oakvale has a yearly Cider Festival that brings in tourists and gold that keeps Oakvale afloat for the frigid winter season. More than that, it's an Oakvale tradition to have sweet, freshly-pressed apple cider made readily available. '''Newton Tell''', the only cider maker in Oakvale, hasn't been seen in days and nobody has had the time to check on him. Mayor Fillmore fears the worst and sends Croak and Dagger to check on Newton Tell and at least six casks of his delicious cider. On their way to the orchard, Croak and Dagger are intercepted by a group of no-good bandits that had just come down from the orchard in a hurry. Rather than explain themselves like good law-abiding individuals, they order Croak and Dagger to relinquish their weapons and they'll be allowed to past. Not seeing this as a legitimate business practice, Croak and Dagger decide to relinquish their weapons into the skulls of the bandits. The two surviving bandits, the leader and his recently vine-wrapped associate, immediately surrender and throw down their weapons. Croak and Dagger lets the associate go with a harsh warning, but question the bandit leader. The leader explains that he and his men were hired to rough up Newton Tell on account of the debt he owed.
