Years ago, I gave some advice about the Lost Mine of Phandelver. I was wrong.

That's because they released this: it's a SEQUEL to that Starter Set called The Shattered Obelisk. The first half  of this book is mostly the same as the original Lost Mines adventure, but the second half is a brand new story about Mind Flayers.

Here's the problem: This book invalidates the most popular video series on my channel, and the most popular PDFs on my Patreon, because the advice I have given previously was not made to accommodate the new direction this book takes the story. So today we are fixing that, so my old advice remains relevant to this adventure.

Now: I've found ten major changes I would make to my original Starter Set advice. I looked for things which feel out-of-place in the Shattered Obelisk portion of the adventure, and I'll point at places earlier in the Lost Mines portion of the adventure where we can add foreshadowing to that out-of-place content. We'll start at the end of the book and work our way backw
