The clever ploy to disable all of the intercepting blockade ships failed, and so now it means that instead the Beowulf is utterly surrounded. Outnumbered, outgunned, with Imperium weapons hot and ready to fire on them, making it out of here is not going to be easy...

While Emile and Splinter were down inside Vega, the settlement on Taiga covered in an energy dome, they were securing Emile's power core. This was interrupted, however, when alarms began blaring and the energy dome that both protected everyone from the elements and, just as importantly, the raiding members of Sigil, went down. The raiders are coming... Previous Ironsworn Campaigns Ironsworn: Weste...

We didn't make it to Taiga in time for Christmas, but this very wintery planet is finally on deck. Emile, last seen slumped over in the holodeck, is to go down and pick up the power core waiting for his arrival. With no complications, I'm sure...

We've had a blockade to get through on this journey to Taiga to retrieve a reserved power core from a salvage yard, and surely that will be the worst of the dangers on the way right? Right...?

Emile has transferred over to The Beowulf as part of the plan to use his old ship, The Stardust, as a distraction in getting through the blockade. The hope is that, given that The Stardust is a stolen, Imperium prisoner transport ship, it will draw enough attention for The Beowulf to make it through unnoticed. But will that plan be enough...?

Back in character this time! Emile's ship, The Stardust, and the chaperone ship, The Beowulf, arrive in a new sector to find that the Imperium has set up a checkpoint to screen traffic going in and out of the Outlands. Given that the Beowulf is itself a ship of Vault Hunters, a activity deemed illegal by the Imperium, making it through without incident is going to be a challenge... Previous Ironsw...

Since we weren't able to generate the whole sector in the last episode, this is the cleanup where we generate the last two settlements.

At a certain point, you gotta take a moment to stop, look around, and just take in all of the worlds around you. That certain point tends to come when we go into a new sector and have no idea what's actually in it. So, enjoy this more out of character, brainstorming session of rolling on tables and interpreting what kinds of new planets and settlements will be out there. Did I mention tax law? Som...

It's time to get the answer to the question, "What is the Wooden Heart's weakness?" Or is it? And an ending to this episode that I promise you won't see coming. I know I sure didn't!

After Vert used his truth-compelling gaze on Emile to get him to say everything about what happened on with Concord, everyone in the habitation module is left with the lingering question of, "where do we go from here?"

Uh-oh, this is awkward. Emile walks in on Vert and Dash in the middle of letting his prisoner out of the cell. A prisoner that, little to them, is the avatar of a dark, forgotten, old god called The Wooden Heart. So, what's the etiquette here?

We finally see the results of Emile's efforts from last week.
