Strong Start

Quantos... dias? Uma semana? Mais? É difícil dizer, parece que as névoas não apenas bloqueiam o sol, mas também a memória. Ainda que não consigam determinar o tempo exato, vocês conseguem se lembrar da primeira vez em que viram esta insígnia: no final da carta com o suposto pedido de socorro do Burgomestre da Vila de Baróvia.

Foi só quando você chegaram naquele sinistro e decadente povoado que descobriram que o símbolo é, na verdade, o brasão de Strahd von Zarovich, o terrível vampiro que governa todo o vale com punho de ferro, causando miséria e espalhando terror.

O brasão de metal, encrostado na capa de um livro de couro, reflete discretamente a chama que queima na mão de Alfbern, ainda assim ele chamou sua atenção. Olhando para o ambiente em que se encontra, é fácil imaginar ele passando despercebido em meio a tantos entulhos. A quanto tempo será que ele está aqui? Quem o trouxe para cá?

Mas talvez a coisa mais importante a focar agora é que ele se revelou para vocês, tenha sido por acaso ou destino, não importa.

Blinsky Toys

This cramped shop has a dark entrance portico, above which hangs a wooden sign shaped like a rocking horse, with a “B” engraved on both sides. Flanking the entrance are two arched, lead-framed windows. Through the dirty glass, you see jumbled displays of toys and hanging placards bearing the slogan “Is No Fun, Is No Blinsky!”
