Welcome to narrative energy cleanup 101. First, a villain does not exist without a hero and a hero cannot exist without a villain. That is the first rule of the narrative energy. This means a hero is the worst thing for society to have. Once he exists, baddies come out of the woodwork.

So, what do you do? Unlike normal energy, narrative energy dissipates over time. People get board of playing the hero, so the secret is to wear them out. Thats right, SIDE QUESTS, MINIGAMES, PUZZLES, YOU NAME IT!

I've been in this business for 23 years, I stopped Geralt of Rivia with nothing but a deck of Gwent cards, I've stopped countless adventuring parties by sending them into the underdark only for them to burn out, and over the next 10 weeks I'll show you all the tricks you need to stop a hero.
