Colorful banners flutter in the breeze, strung between well-worn timber buildings that line the cobbled streets. Stalls overflow with fresh harvests, baked goods, and handcrafted wares, while townsfolk gather in laughter and song. Children chase one another between festival games, and performers fill the air with music and merriment. At the center, a grand stage stands ready for speeches, blessings, and ceremonies that mark the day of hope.
Yet beneath the joyful noise, the quiet breath of fate stirs.
For the Swallowtail Festival is not only a symbol of new beginnings — it is the calm before storm clouds gather. In moments of great joy, shadows often find their most opportune moments to strike. What begins as a day of celebration may soon turn into a day no one will ever forget.
The Swallowtail Festival offers Dungeon Masters an iconic setting for introducing heroes, weaving in secrets, and launching events that will echo far beyond the town square. Every joyful moment holds the seed of the epic tale to come.
