The One Ring™ Starter Set – Over Hill and Under Hill
"Not far ahead of them rose gloomy hills, ever higher and higher, dark with trees. On some stood old castles with an evil atmosphere, as if they had been built by malevolent men."
Imagine: You are enjoying a rare, quiet evening at The Prancing Pony inn in Bree, when a hunter approaches your table and tells a grim tale of an impending danger in the northern heights. But you are not just a simple guest – you are part of a group. And it is your duty to investigate the eerie whispers emanating from the desolate hills. Are you ready to embark on the path to adventure?
