**The Dead Return.** The characters are heading to San Citlán to enjoy the food, parades, and celebrations of the Night of the Remembered —and perhaps to reconnect with a departed ancestor or loved one.
**Healing the Plague.** The characters have a friend of a friend who lives in the village of Milpazul. This acquaintance writes to them, asking for help investigating a wave of strange ailments and fiendish attacks plaguing her community.
> [!NOTE] THE NIGHT OF THE REMEMBERED
> The end of this adventure takes place during a citywide celebration called the Night of the Remembered, when the deceased visit their loved ones. Establish the festival in advance if the characters don’t already know about it. The adventure assumes that the characters take only a day or so to get from Milpazul to San Citlán. If you add more time, or if the characters need to take a long rest after the events in Milpazul or Hollow Mine, adjust the calendar accordingly. No matter what happens, the characters arrive in San Citlán while the festival is in full swing—it lasts as long as you require.
