Almebezbik is in turmoil.  Day to day life for the common citizen is uncertain and fraught with peril.  Those of an adventurous bent are as likely to meet a sticky end as to make their fortune in one fell swoop.

A focus of this quick accumulation of fame and wealth has fallen on the crater that still holds many of the treasures of the lost city-state of Walton and the city of Troll's Bridge, which has successfully retrieved some of these treasures.

A relative safe-haven is the town of Redemption and its dual-faith temple Zelmbring situated in Tanglewood east of The Crater.
