Treasure? |
We're away for a holiday, staying at a cottage on the banks of the River Dee. It's an opportunity to catch up with family and friends and have some downtime.
As well as the usual manual about the house, the local services and community, there is a rather intriguing map.
I love the way that the cottage owners have taken the time to annotate this with suggestions and routes to explore. It almost feels like a treasure map.
There's a wonder to exploration, the chance to find out what's over the hill. It's a key component in roleplaying games, often stifled by splat-books that don't leave spaces to make the setting unique. The best supplements leave spaces and put hooks in your mind.
