The Journal of the Forsaken Shores Alliance …and its betrayal by Stitcher Jim

  • Day 1

    The Forsaken Shores Alliance is formed! Today Ruby, Fetcher, Jim and I raised a grog before the alliance set sail for uncharted waters beyond the Shroud…


    Day 12

    We’ve discovered something beyond the Shroud! A hot, hostile environment we’ve named ‘The Devil’s Roar’.

    Jim found a box of wondrous secrets half buried in the hot sands; we’ve stowed it aboard in our cabin for safe keeping.

    A hot and unrelenting land!

    Filled with peril and danger!


    Day 52

    We’ve been betrayed! Poisoned by the bit of a rat named Stitcher Jim!! That box of secrets has corrupted him; I should have seen this coming.

    Ruby… Fetcher… I pray for your safety; I’ll begin searching for you and the alliance the second I regain my strength…


    Day ?

    I’ve wandered, lost and forgotten, for… too long…

    I lost my ship today. It lies here wrecked on this island, the last remnants of the great Forsaken Shores Alliance in pieces. I’m forced to take refuge here…


    No Longer Alone!

    Morrow’s Peak will stand as a monument to everything Ruby, Fetcher and the alliance endured at the hands of that snake Stitcher Jim.


    A Nightmare

    I had the dream again. Back with Ruby, Fetcher and the rest of the alliance, all of us standing around that damned box. Only this time, it’s not Jim that peeks inside. I’m the one lifting the lid.

    The box is empty. No, more than that. Where its bottom should be there’s a hole, like peering into a great abyss. And inside that… Flames. Endless, searing flames.


    The Price of Greed

    The snake shows his head! Got word last night that Stitcher Jim’s been slithering around out in the Wilds. Rumour has it he’s fallen in love! Impossible! That man loves only himself.

    If that snake is lurking anywhere, it’ll be below the dirt in his hideout on Liar’s Backbone.

    Maybe I’ll send a few friends out there to find him, and maybe they’ll be armed.


    Stitcher Jim’s Notes

    My hard work is almost complete… the Blackwyche Crew slain. Ready to deliver my master his first Ashen Lord!

    The Ritual must be performed in Captain Flameheart’s lair; Deep within the Heart of Fire on The Devil’s Thirst.

    Its entrance is hidden below the waves, but I can find it if I light the chalice overlooking the North Beach…

    The Ashen Lords shall rise! All hail Flameheart!!


    This is the quest book for the Tall Tale, Heart of Fire. You can find this Tall Tale next to Tallulah in the tavern on Morrow's Peak Outpost. You find Stitcher Jim's notes in his hideout on Liar's Backbone.
