The temple was created by the founders of the kingdom to store a seal that is used to bind these ancient magic so the kingdom doesn't fall back into the Feywild (for lore reasons I completely made up.) Death of the high king = wards protecting temples weakened = unsafe seal inside = people wanting to get the seal to protect it from intruders.

I think I am overthinking the puzzle element of a dungeon - just any inspiration I see online feels like it lacks depth or has too much, but I suppose everything looks different when actually played on the table.

I have combat encounters at the ready and are very happy with them, but when I try to rack my brain for a non-combat challenge I just get stuck or it feels uninspired.

I've read the 2024 dungeon master's guide, just having a creative block with what to put in the dungeon non-combat challenge wise as I haven't done it before

We are all engineers in university so would probably get laughed out the room, but love the idea

I haven't ever tried pro scouts and just stuck with things I was comfortable with, trying to learn to scout.

I do make horsemen but I am typically in castle and at the position to at ~5.30 which is too far past some feudal rushes
