Unbalanced Encounters

In the basin of an island outcast in a shallow sea, a city yearns for the gold of a dragon"s horde. And this rush has made prospector-adventuring parties commonplace. From the many calls to plunder comes a flyer promising fortune, fame, and near-certain death. And our four idiots have answered the call.

”I think we need to kill the Empressar.” Shaken to their core by a surreal encounter with the Elder God of Death, our heroes regroup — where else — in a bar. Over a few bottles of perilberry wine, they finally come clean. Mel has been conning Ganbald. Harisa has seen Sherwood. Guard has seen Demoiselle. Isaac is done serving the Empressar. But as they make plans to find their way home, we're moved to ask the most important question: will anything surpass Mr. Spinx in a Marie Antoinette

”Who's out there? No one is supposed to be here!” Moved by brazen curiosity, Harisa has found herself staring down the wrath of an elder god. One by one, each of her allies snap out of their memories and rush to her aid, only to be confronted by eldritch serpents, an inconsolable mourner that can kill with a touch, and Reevesy, who is trying his best. Will Isaac's apology be enough to quell the grief of the mother of death? Probably not. == CREDITS == Soundtrack “Stronger Reborn” by Sayer

”It’s about time I got treated the way I should be treated! I’m sick of the way you treat me! I am a god here.” You rarely want to find yourself permanently stuck in the afterlife, no matter how much it resembles a five-star spa resort. However, that’s exactly what has happened. Guard, June, and Mr. Spinx all try to make the best of it while Isaac meets another warden and Harisa tries to get herself killed. Will our heroes survive being very-nearly-almost dead? Probably not. == CREDITS

"The farther we get from Rally, the more the... 'mission' fades." The Western Wealds drags on for days as our heroes search for their lost friends — or the god of death, whichever they find first.

For the first time, Harisa and Scrumpy lie wounded in Oz's infirmary. For the first time, June must confront the inevitability of war. For the first time, Isaac must stand before his people and convince them that it is all worth it; that Rally stands for something more than just a place to call home. But will it

"You and me. Let's have a conversation. Stop this, right now." After a fitful and potentially-prophetic night, our heroes finally arrive at their first elderwood grove in months.
