- | The party meet with Lord Cosmo Decor, who wants them to recover his granddaughter, Maranda, who has recently run off without warning. Cosmo has found a copy of //Tales of the Wyldewode// in her study with //The Tale of the Monster Prince// bookmarked. The story describes a prince hiding away in a castle in the Wyldewode, waiting for his one true love to lift the enchantment that has made him a monster. Maranda, Cosmo explains, is a hopeless romantic who needs to be brought home, either before she gets herself hitched or before her dratted mother finds out about this. After a certain amount of haggling, Cosmo offers to pay 35R as a basic rate, with an extra 15R if Maranda is recovered successfully. All right, //plus reasonable expenses//, ugh, you people are cleaning me out, y’know…. | + | The party meet with Lord Cosmo Décor, who wants them to recover his granddaughter, Maranda, who has recently run off without warning.

Travelling to the town of Wildeaves on the edge of the Wildewode, the party encounters an enraged mob, which is chanting: //“Roast the butcher! Toast the baker! Set alight the candlestick-maker!”// It turns out that a few romantically-minded people have been going missing lately, and the suspected culprits are Hilde Quell, Tod Bobbin, and Kit Spindle. Spindle, the candlestick-maker, is believed to have lured their victims out into the woods using flickering lights; there, Bobbin, the baker, has left drugged cake to put them to sleep; Quell, the butcher, has then cut up the bodies for meat. | Travelling to the town of Wildeaves on the edge of the Wildewode, the party encounters an enraged mob, which is chanting: //“Roast the butcher!
