*On hearing of the vampire troubles on Mistone, a small troupe of adventurers relate the tale of how they came to rescue the elder daughter and young son of a family who had been attacked by vampires. The family had been travelling through the Backbone Mountains of Dregar when they became lost, and were set upon. The heroes themselves were attacked and nearly overun by the vampires. It was only by fleet-of-foot and some daring-do that they were able to affect the rescue.*
