Okay, but what is the actual WORD? It's an abbreviation, and surely the word isn't "Ma" given that a large number of human languages use some version of that sound for "Mother."

Updates: reworded and checked the style guide.
Added players map (for those who use vtts if that's a thing that might be useful to add to pdfs)

Revision 7, Changed some fonts on the maps, added a regional map of sorts. I have a couple of other little adventures in mind based around that small area.

Starting all over.

Page 3.

"The bandits quickly cleared out the cave and found that it led into an old crypt of a forgotten local lord,".

Should be "the" old crypt unless there is more than one.

"Despite being under strict instructions not to open any sarcophagi"

Should be singular thus "sarcophagus".

Page 4.

"while the moral remains of his wife decayed into dust."

Should be mortal, I think.

Why should it be singular?

I wasn't sure, so I checked some grammar site.

Seems like the meaning is "do not open any one thing".
If the meaning was "do not open any 2 or more things", it would be OK to open one sarcophagus.

Of course, I could be wrong.

So very far from that.

Still page 4 "and his gang of outlaws.."

Probably just the one coma.

"Sarcophagi" seems correct to me. Maybe rephrase it? "Leave all sarcophagi unopened" or something similar.

"...not to open any of the sarcophagi" reads better to me than "...not to open any sarcophagi"
I also like Minkey's possible edit/re-write
