Summary

The kids discover the Hydra’s weakness! Will they use it to defeat the creature or help it find what it seeks? Lessons include: Big problems take teamwork to solve; taking a break helps us face our challenges with fresh eyes. This story is part of a Guilds & Goblins campaign, where What If World characters (and guests) play an original tabletop RPG for kids and families. Real-life dice rolls, usually with a 20-sided die (or d20), help us tell the story, along with your questions!
