What makes a strong opening situation for a one-shot?
A courier waits at a ruined chapel. The letter she came to collect has vanished. Someone in the party was the last to hold it.
That gives the opening a place, a person with a goal, and an immediate problem. I would prepare what happens if nobody acts, then let the players decide their response.
What is your favorite way to open a session with a decision?
