Welcome to Sidhe Shells

Sidhe Shells

She sells seashells by the seashore.
The shells she sells are surely seashells.
So if she sells shells on the seashore,
I'm sure she sells seashore shells.

But what do the Sidhe sell? More importantly, what do they want with the Kingdom of Taneth?

The first month or two after the last Midwinter Solstice were nothing unusual; a little colder than normal, perhaps, but nothing worth passing comment on. When the first month of Spring rolled around and frost still glistened on every tree and rooftop, people started gossiping about long winters they remembered from years gone by. Now it is almost Midsummer and snow still blusters, the ground is hard as steel, the trees are bare and nothing grows. Great drifts of snow block the roads, both within and out of the Kingdom. Even the sea has begun to freeze, great chunks of ice making the ports inaccessible to even the hardiest ships and sailors.

Supplies are low and reserves are depleted. People are worried.
Bellies are empty and hearths are cold. People are dying.
Prayers go unanswered and desperation looms. The Kingdom is in trouble...

...and rumour has it that the Sidhe have been seen again for the first time in more than an Age.
