The Sword of the Dales (adventure)

The Sword of the Dales is a Forgotten Realms adventure published in 1995 by TSR. It is designed for four to six characters of levels 1-4.

"The Sword of the Dales, an icon of the Dalelands symbolizing the unity and strength of the people, has reappeared! Created by Shraevyn the weapons-mage hundreds of years ago, the lost sword had become nothing more than a fantastic children's tale - until now.

A group of warriors led by Randal Morn rightfule ruler of Daggerdale, rushed to the Sword's resting place to recover it, but dark forces awaited them and Randal and his men fell to an ambush. Only one man escaped, yet he brought hope with him that Randal Morn yet lives. Resolved to rescue his leader, that lone survivor turned to Elminster of Shadowdale for aid.

But Elminster is gone, off plane-hoping while the fate of Daggerdale hangs in the balance. Hence, it is up to Lhaeo, scribe to the old mage, to find a group of heroes who have mettle enough to face down the menace which claimed Randal Morn and his hearty followers....

This is the first of three modules that grant the player characters the opportunity to determine the fate of Daggerdale. The Saga continues with The Secret of Spiderhaunt and concludes with The Return of Randal Morn"
