Journeys Through The Radiant Citadel – First Chapter Now Free on D&D Beyond
Journeys through the Radiant Citadel’s first chapter is a gazetteer all about the titular citadel. You’ll learn everything about it from its notable locations, to the heart and soul of its citizens:
Against the unending mist and unseen terrors of the Ethereal Plane, the Radiant Citadel stands bright as a bastion of hope. It’s a living relic of the ingenuity and collaboration of twenty-seven great civilizations. Abandoned and lost for ages, the Citadel was resurrected from its slumber and reclaimed by descendants of those societies, though some peoples remain missing. The city serves as a nexus of diplomacy and trade, a repository of histories and secrets, and a thriving sanctuary for those seeking safety or a better life.
But, not all is ingenuity and hope in the Radiant Citadel. We also get a glimpse of a massive, devouring storm. Known as the Keening Gloom, this ethereal cyclone has surrounded the city, and nothing that enters it has ever returned:
When explorers rediscovered the Citadel, the Keening Gloom hungrily circled the city. Its endless howl struck terror in their hearts and engulfed several adventurers. After the heroes entered the Citadel and reawakened its power, the cyclone was driven back. But in times of turmoil within the Citadel, the cyclone ominously draws closer.
Scholars have studied the Keening Gloom for decades but have only theories about its nature, its connection to the Radiant Citadel, and what befalls those caught in its terrible throes. Many fear the cyclone cannot be held at bay forever.
These are just a few of the wondrous locations and peoples that await you. See for youself, claim your copy below.
