Within the Herald of Rain, the players are thrown into the heart of a world tied together in a web of intrigue and arcane cataclysm. In the eye of the hurricane, lies Hasan Sabbah, his Hashashin Order, and their plans for vengeance - which the adventurers became a loose end for. To save their own skins, and in the off chance that their intentions are noble, to take down a horrendous threat to the Silk Road in a righteous battle. The adventurers must ride west from city to city - and finally challenge Sabbah in his lair, the infamous Castle Alamut.

They will travel through legendary cities of Samarkand - the war-torn crown jewel of Asia; Merv - the city of Merchant Emirs; Isfahan - the last stronghold of the Sultanate; and Baghdad - the home of the Caliph, and the House of Wisdom.
