The keep is on the border of the known world. Everything West of this keep is unknown. It’s true wilderness. Raids on traders have picked up; folks who are coming to the keep to either trade their goods or as missionaries are being kidnapped and ransomed. There is an escalating sense of fear. There’s an evil growing, and everyone within the keep knows it. This is one of the last bastions of civilization, and the Well-Met heroes venture to the keep to find fame and fortune and their place in the world as adventurers. There are several nearby places for adventure:

Over a century ago, the legendary fighter Rogahn the Fearless and the equally mystical Zelligar the Unknown pooled their resources and expertise to construct a home and stronghold for the two of them to use as a base of operations they named Quasqueton. However, the place was never completed and is filled with monstrous and threatening beasts today. Some say it still contains the treasures of the two adventurers.

The nearby Caves of Chaos are set in a strange hollow riddled with natural caves. Over the past one-hundred years, these caves have attracted many undesirables including trollish monstrosities and cults of demonic spirits incarnated into flesh. It would please Lord Drysdale of Restwell Keep if these threats were investigated and neutralized before they do more damage to the peaceful nearby farming villages of Foxgarden and Rye.
