This sandbox setting is full of NPCs, factions, quest hooks, and scenarios. You can use them verbatim or for inspiration to build your own plots and stories. The best location to start with Level 1 characters is Wally’s Waffles and Weorgs. It’s where the first adventure started in the Quickstart Guide, and it occupies the same Hex as the town of Firedamp, so between the two locations there’s a ton of stuff to explore. If you’ve already run the first adventure, then all you need to do is read a few rumors from various locations to your players and let them decide what sounds like fun to pursue. From Inside Book
