A team from the Royal Jaune Records label arrives in Bon Marais, Louisiana, in June of 1956. They are in search of the original lyrics to the popular folk song “Cotton-Eyed Joe.” The family of local folk legend Rory Welch claims to have those lyrics and have promised to release them…for a sizeable sum, of course. But dark and terrible things lurk in the Louisiana swamps, and the team find themselves getting more than what they bargained for in this lyrical deal.

Rina from The Old Ways Podcast ran this adventure for us.

Helos, a Greek Occultist, has acquired a complete copy of Al-Azif. Having a desire to keep this acquisition secret, he has sought the most distant translator possible. Posing as a rich merchant, he has come to Saeferne Abbey and engaged the services of Albinus, a translator. His financial “offering” to the church has gained him access to Albinus, and will protect him unless there is conclusive evidence of wrongdoing on his part. During the process of translation, some dark recess of Albinus’ soul has been awakened…

The year is 1880, and the posse is forming.It’s easy to feel alone as the shadows gather and the pale moon rises over the High Plains. The Apache say that on nights like this, the cold wind from the prairie has a mind of its own – a malignant chill, born of the darkness, which eats at your warmth, and steals all compassion.

It was a night like that when Barton Duvall rode into Tombstone. A night like that when they found what was left of little Alina Hundle – the few sad remains, barely recognizable, that Barton had left for her family to bury. And, it was a night like that when you realised that justice was more than a word bandied around by fearful shopkeepers – it was a necessity.

This episode is based on the scenario Sundown, available here.
