Below are two more adventure locations within Krevborna's Silent Forest. The first is an expression of fairy tale horror: a forboding cottage in the woods where a coven of three hags trade supernatural healing for the flesh of live children. The second is a more mystical area inspired by my love of the old Robin of Sherwood show and, oddly enough, Dark Souls.
The Wychbog Cottage
A tumble-down cottage perched atop creaking wooden supports emerges from a flooded fen in the Silent Forest; the cottage’s occupants, the Wychbog Sisters, are three ancient crones who can miraculously restore the health of those who dare to visit them.
• The Wychbog Sisters are named Yubella Greentongue, Old Vasaga, and Mother Malaryn.
• All three sisters are corpulent and wear ragged dresses made of human skin, though they disguise their terrible natures under palatable illusions.
• When their aid is sought, the Sisters make their visitor a poisonous offer—they will cure whatever ailment besieges the sufferer, but in return that person must bring them a living child as payment.
Yrd Dolma
Within an obscure clearing in the Silent Forest stands a circle of weathered gray sarsen stones known as Yrd Dolma.
• In the center of Yrd Dolma, a sacred bonfire is kept burning by blind pagans of the old faith.
• The druids give credence to a prophecy that states that a great warrior will one day willingly sacrifice themselves to their holy bonfire; this martyr will die upon the flames and be born again, emerging from immolation as a sacred undead champion.
• The druidic priests of Yrd Dolma believe that their ordained champion is fated to free Krevborna from the grip of supernatural evil.
