The Borrowed Storybook: Tabletop RPG Live Play
When an enchanted children's book is accidentally checked out of the library, Singapore's forgotten myths begin slipping into the real world.
Across the island, figures from old stories begin appearing where they do not belong. Mysterious animals are spotted in unlikely places. Each manifestation is subtle enough to avoid public alarm, but together they signal that the barriers protecting Singapore's hidden magical ecosystem are beginning to weaken.
Tasked with locating the missing book, a team of specialist librarians must unravel a chain of magical mishaps stretching across Singapore.
