A simple job.

Your VeMico handler, Maas, has secured employment for a handful of desperate souls. A wagon, a sealed crate, and a destination several miles beyond the city limits.

The cargo is to be delivered to an abandoned quarry known as The Long Drop.

No questions.

No inspections.

No delays.

Most importantly:

Do not open the crate.

Payment will be made upon delivery.

Assuming, of course, the cargo arrives first.

4D Guidance

This adventure works best if players treat the journey as real.

Encourage:

• Speaking only in character
• Discussing fears and suspicions through their characters
• Making decisions based on character knowledge
• Embracing bad ideas and mistakes

The journey itself is the adventure.
