You are walking through a busy town square. Merchants shout, carts roll by, and townsfolk argue about the growing war between the Dwendalian Empire and the Kryn Dynasty. The air feels tense. Suddenly, shouting erupts outside a tavern.

Jester: “HEY! Watch where you’re going!”

Fjord: “Calm down, this isn’t worth it.”

Caleb: “Seriously, all of this could have been avoided if you just listened!”

Beauregard: “Guys we are attracting too much attention stop arguing!”

Mollymauk: “Focus, friends. There’s bigger trouble coming our way.”

Nott: “Well, this is getting interesting fast.”

Heavy boots pound the street as city guards push through the crowd.

Guard Captain: “Enough! All of you—hands where we can see them! And you don’t think you’re not part of this mess.”

Whether by choice or bad luck, you are dragged into the same mess, Before you can react, the guards grab you. You are all thrown into the same cell, sitting on the cold stone floor, with the Mighty Nein beside you.
