conversations.value: An episodic Storium adventure exploring the Lovecraftian horror show that is Red Hook's Darkest Dungeon.
  
  The hamlet of Cliffside is besieged by all manner of unholy abominations; dead rising from their graves, mutated sea-creatures, infested and diseased beasts, and twisted monsters from a darker realm. The newly arrived benefactor -Lord Logan- can do little more than send foolish adventurers into the depths to quell the uprising of monstrosities.
