(Extrakun)

It’s the middle of spring, where farmers ought to till the land in peace, and the sky is clear and calm, as it usually is. However, since two weeks ago, there have been reports of a storm that seems to be travelling across the land. Wherever it goes, hail-stones as large as goose-eggs rain down, and lightning bolts fray the ground. Villages have been devastated and even the walls of towers and keeps are in need of repair.

1. Occasionally, a Titan* (see DW1.1 Bestiary) is trapped in this plane of existence; but what has happened this time is even more drastic. A group of Titan* hunters have emerged to this plane, and for some reason, they are unleashing storms wherever they go. An Air Elementalist*, toying with the limits of his power, has accidentically created a sentinel Air Elemental*. The Elementalist* had in mind a spell of destruction, and the Air Elemental* uses its power to bring across the most destructive force of air that it could find and bring it to this plane. The Titan* hunters percieved the sudden shifting of plane as a deliberate attack and insult to their honour, and they will be leaving a trail of destruction until they find this Elementalist*.
   
2. Thick, broiling clouds follow the storm wherever it goes, and survivors claim that they had seen a “ship of stone” within the cloud. It seems to be made be made entirely of granite and precious stones though no-one could get a clear view of it. If divination magic is used, the ship is clearly the source of the storm. Boarding it would require the adventurers to have some way to fly. Within the ship, crystal Golems* protect and operate it; they do not appear to be hostile. Their leader, also a Golem*, explains that this ship was created thousands of years ago, and only recently was reactivated. It seems that someone else have been here before and tampered with the enchantments on the ship so that now it is causing such destruction. The adventurers may venture to fix, but the catch is that the Golems* are just acting friendly, being somehow converted to the cause of the intruder and since they are not alive, no ESP* or methods of prying into their mind is going to reveal this.
3. The storm seems to follow a predetermined path, targeting major cities, trade hubs and farms. This is the prelude to an invasion. In order to take back Ellesland* from the ‘invaders of the south’, a charismatic warlord who has claimed descent from the original kings of the island has gathered a coven of Elementalists* to summon this storm to wreck havoc. The display of magic is, however, usually beyond the means of mere mortals, even if they channelled their power together. The warlord has actually made a pact with a demon, who is masquerading as one of the Forgotten Gods* of Ellseland, for his own goals and purpose. Will the adventurers be able to unmask the deception in time?
