4. As the sun sets, casting eerie long shadows across the wasteland, the players hear a haunting melody on the wind. Following the sound, they arrive at a camp of nomadic bards who have transformed an abandoned ruin into a bastion of music and joy. The bards, led by the charismatic Elara, reveal they are on a mission to revive the spirits of the land using their music, but they are being hunted by shadow wraiths. If the players protect the bards from a predawn wraith assault, Elara will compose a saga in their honor, granting them a powerful charm that echoes her music, dispelling fear and boosting morale in the darkest of times.
