Master D&D foreshadowing & weave a campaign your players won’t forget.
One way to make the situation less anxiety-inducing is to verify you’re prepared.
A Goal For The Party
You always want tokeep in mind the ultimate goalof your campaign.
Are your players trying to slay a monster?
Have the players decided to investigate a bandit camp instead of exploring a dungeon?
Have the bandits run away into the dungeon, leading your players to chase after them.

This is dependent on how experienced your players are.
Be prepared totake your campaign one session at a time.

Food And Drinks
Snacks are the unspoken savior of many a DM.
