 So my Lands of legend campaign is ending soon, one more session. They got the artifacts and are almost ready to fight Olwin, The Cunning. The game is going great everyone is happy, everything has a nice bit of closure and one of my players asked, "what's next?". This question send shivers down my spine. Truth is, I have no idea about ending a campaign in a good way and starting something new. A lot of times campaigns fizzle, bang or poof but this has not.

Troika: Give your players weird and cool toys ...
