The Golden Goose makes a somewhat desperate landing in the strange ramshackle community of migrant treasure hunters of Potámia Cuomo. Located on the furthest rim of the rediscovered world, this town floats along the floodplain of the Cuomo delta searching the muddy banks that cover ruins of a long-lost metropolis for pearls and treasures of the world before the fall. Jack, Margaret, and the crew of The Goose are met by a desperate community as their rivers have dried up and the blockade of storms surrounding their community has prevented other traders from landing for months. Among these scallywags is Keif, a nervous man with an uncertain voice and big questions.

Coming in 2024, a new One Shot Network competitive MÖRK BORG actual play mini-series. Two teams of four characters have four sessions to acquire as much in-game wealth as possible, by any means necessary. The winning team gets a real cash prize and their characters each gain a wish. Together Team Chicago and Team LA drafted worldbuilding details to create an absurd setting full of danger and treasure ripe for the picking.

The world has been ravaged down to the core, the oceans banished to the skies, and the two remaining habitable continents are divided by a massive canyon full of demonic birds. One of these continents is the playground of the wealthy, the other a slum inhabited by the poor. In addition to having to live in a Dickensian gutter, the inhabitants of the poor hemisphere are afflicted with a second terrible curse: Every day is Christmas Day. Every inhabitant of the poor hemisphere wakes up to an ever-growing pile of presents and an endless gentle snow, unable to remember the events of the previous day. Four poor adventurers are about to receive an opportunity that could change their lives forever...
