Your party rolls into a gorgeous forest expecting to have fun at the annual Kvetny Festival, but then – the whole place is all corrupted vines and bad decisions. Turns out, a Dryad sold her soul to a random dark entity to “save” the forest. Spoiler: it did NOT save the forest. 

Meanwhile, the Zlato Union, a gang of not-so-friendly “merchants”, has arrived to plunder the magical Svetlo Pond. Oh, and the guardian of said pond, the Ancient Treant, is missing. 

Now, things are spiraling faster than a faerie dragon on sugar. 

Will you:

• Side with the Dryad and make the forest’s corruption everyone’s problem?
• Side with the Zlato Union because, let’s be honest, gold is shiny?
• Befriend the Faerie Dragons, win their magical amulet, and save the Vale? (Good luck solving their troll-level puzzles)
• End the Dryad to stop the corruption (temporarily) while ignoring the giant evil spirit on the loose?
• Say “nope” to all this drama, find some hippogriff eggs, and run away?

Will you solve the forest’s mysteries, or let Derava Vale disappear forever? The choice is yours, leaf it or not!
