Flashback -Fobias looks at Gary’s outstretched hand as the man’s words are consumed by the flickering firelight. His eyes stare through the embers that are disappearing into the chill night air, and suddenly Fobias is on his back staring up at a slightly younger version of Gary, hand also outstretched in the same pose.

Barl Breakbones throws down his weapon and the party begins their interrogation. There’s a lot to unpack here! First of all, the party inquires about Mokmurian. Who is he and what is he planning? As it turns out, Barl has been receiving semi-regular communication from Mokmurian via rocs. He pulls out a mammoth hide with …
In a moment of pure lucidity, which is certainly unprecedented for him, Fyn begins giving orders to fall back and regroup. The party hasn’t seen this side of him before; it is a sharp contrast to Fyn’s usual airy demeanor. With the exception of Barnaby, the party begins to retreat down the hallway and prepare …

The dark staircase descends deep into the bowels of Skull’s Crossing. After numerous switchbacks, the party arrives at another set of stone double doors and they begin preparing themselves for whatever dangers might be lurking beyond the wall. Trace detects an evil presence, so Fyn casts Protection from Evil to help boost the party’s defenses …
