As they wandered around, they heard a name that was very familiar to him: Vynblud. He was able to meet others who would travel with him, and they supported themselves in the usual manner by doing favors, finding treasure in unlikely caves, fetching things, gathering items from the wild, and even crafting. However, his curiosity was the key factor that kept him poking into new crannies, turning over social rocks and finding cockroaches as it were. He had only the stories of his parent to guide him, so looking for "work" was something of a random hit and miss affair. Curiosity led him to leave the secure life of a merchant and learn the adventuring trade. He soon established a little candlemaking enterprise, but was even sooner bored. In TH II, the protagonist is the child of the TH1 hero/heroine, who grew up on a farm and went to the big city of Raven Fall to seek his fortune.
At the end, he/she settles down to obscurity. In the process of trying to locate the lovers, the traveler becomes an accomplished adventurer. In TH I, a traveler gets embroiled in the disappearance of two star-crossed lovers and a competition between evil mages.
There are a few personalities and areas of TH that are carried over from the NWN modules, even though otherwise the world is quite different because those modules were placed in an area of Faerun with a D&D cosmology. Some characters and elements were carried on from THI to THII and now to the present stand-alone game. These two modules have been consistently rated by players among the top modules ever written for NWN 1.
This was followed by Tortured Hearts II, written in collaboration with Jim Grimsley (USA) and András Gáspár (in Hungarian) (HU). Zoltán Gonda originated the saga of Tortured Hearts with his first module for the Neverwinter Nights 1 community, Tortured Hearts I.
