Living Forgotten Realms/Core

The Core adventures in the Living Forgotten Realms campaign were typically set in areas not covered by any of the twelve regions, though there inevitably was some overlap involved.

CORE1-1 Inheritance

Desperate for money, he hires you to retrieve its contents in a gamble that something worthwhile is still there. A Living Forgotten Realms adventure set in Sembia for characters levels 1–4."

"The Low Market of Athkatla is no place for the more delicate flowers of civilization.
