Will it be the easy way or the hard way this time?

CORS8-01 Whispers of the Obsidian Citadel by Dave Christ and Tim SechPeople, objects, and even places seem to be shifting in and out of existence in the Yatil’s west of the great city of Mitrik. Chaos seems to be unravelling existence itself and it’s spreading. Seers speak of the ‘Door to Perdition’ but even the gods themselves seem to be silent on exactly what is happening. Great things are afoot and while nations focus their attention on each other it is up to heroes to find out what is going on before it’s too late and all of Oerth burns in the fires perdition forever. This adventure is the first part of the “Ascension” plot arc and also concludes the “For the Greater Good” series. This adventure is EXTREMELY dangerous and should not be undertaken lightly. True heroes are forged in the glowing hot coals of struggle and true heroes it will take to win through this day.

COR8-02 Raiders of the Chaos Fields by Creighton BroadhurstTurrosh Mak, despot of the Orcish Empire of the Pomarj, wants peace.

Have the orcs really stopped raiding or are they preparing a new, devastating invasion?

COR8-03 Aspirations by Gregory Hanigan and Ron LundeenPowerful residents in the Gem of the Flanaess suspect that someone on the Directing Oligarchy may be working with Greyhawk's greatest enemy.
