This is a very clean adventure. Feels like I could run it without much prep. Very well done.

The only things I would suggest, if you expand on this, are a set of hooks for how the PCs might get quested towards the sinking sanctuary, and some notes about the trip from Poe's Lantern to the sanctuary.

Great job.

A room full of pigs and polymorph spells zinging everywhere. What could go wrong?

Really good, clean map and concise room descriptions. This adventure is obviously built with GMs in mind.

I enjoy your room layouts and descriptions.  Simple, straightforward, and has enough room for DMs to interject whatever they need.  The general overall layout is great as well.  Great Job.

Thanks! I think Shadowdark is at it best when it leaves room for the GM. 

The map is mostly Kelsey's dice-rolling mapmaking procedure from the core book along with some advice on loop theming from one of Baron's videos!
