The Lantern Road

Along the Lantern Road through the Hearthmarch hills, every half-day stands a shrine whose flame never gutters, and the waystation at Dimmet Post has gone dark for the first time in living memory. Carts that stop there do not leave. Bandits called the Unlit are prying the living cores out of the shrines and carrying them into Greyhollow Mine, where a hungry young dragon eats the light and grows. Four heroes from the inn at Lanternwatch must clear the dark post, follow the stolen light across a small country of farms, shrines and tariff posts, and go down into the dwarf-sealed deep to decide whether the Lantern-Eater is slain, sealed or sent away.
