Calling all adventurers with formidable combat skills and unusually desensitized olfactory senses! Travel to the village of Oxblood, where something especially foul has transpired at Steve and Bab’s dairy farm. A hideous reek spews from the barn, withering crops and watering eyes. At the request of the beleaguered villagers—who will pay handsomely for any adventurers willing to assist—this pernicious stink must be dealt with. But beware! Strange beasts roam the night, dissuading all who might interfere. Or are they... cows? Yes, they are—dairy cows sporting eyes filled with malice and breath that reeks of sour, nose-melting death...
