In the thick autumnal fog, the come across someone waiting for another, and strangeness starts to present itself...Ballad Hunters, published by Pelgrane Press, should be coming to Kickstarter the week of posting! If you like what you hear, please consider backing the game to help it come to life. If you want an early taste, you can try the early access edition, available on DriveThruRPG.
