Ferrying the Old and the New
A downloadable game
"We- We're close . . ." The massive ferry slowly glides above the Stentorian River that carries the Circle of Investigators and their guide, an EONS member.
"On- One moment." The guide wobbles towards the railing and heaves their previous meal overboard. The fishes gather and makes quick work of the regurgitated meal.
The guide walks back to the Circle as the ferry's horn blares, announcing itself to Midway Port. Curiously, the dock seems to be like a live wire: full of commotion.
"Fanatics." The guide spits before continuing. "They're known as the CoRE. They're trouble." Shouting—confident and prideful—reaches your ears. "Just ignore them. We'll talk to the Association when we get to land."
"The path has already been paved! Soon, we will walk on it!" The crowd erupts, some faint, most raise their hands and kneel. The preacher walks with determination into the river until they are stomach deep. "The river gives life! Eternal life to all!"

Ferrying the Old and the New, is a product that is specifically, but not only, for GMs that uses the system Candela Obscura by Darrington Press. This is a Trifold, a One-Page Assignment that can be printed (or not) which contains:
- Adversaries, and some example goals to guide the GM on how they would act.
- Threats, that a Circle of Investigators (Players) might encounter during this Assignment.
- NPCs, for GMs to use in order to guide or oppose the Investigators.
- Locations, where a plot thread might be found, an interesting encounter might occur, or death—or maybe even something worse.
- Gears, that the GM might give in order to help the Investigators in this Assignment.
This is my take on a Low-Prep session; where this is the only thing you, the GM, would need at your table (or tablet). So that the Players and of course you, the GM, can focus on the Assignment at hand.
Good luck to you, Lightkeeper. And may your Investigators survive another Assignment in the future.

Greetings; it's been a while, hasn't it.
Life just hit me with all sorts of things. But that doesn't mean I'll stop making these. No! I'll still create these just because I like it—it's one of my creativity-outlets.
Anyway, just to keep you in the loop. I've currently started on making a campaign-like version of these Trifolds. And since I'm new to all of this—writing stuff down—it'll take a lot more time. But don't worry, it will come out eventually. I promise you that!
That's enough about me. So, please enjoy my Trifold Assignments. Use them as is or as inspiration or however you want to use them; I just hope that your table can create memorable stories out of these.
Until next time!
