After 111 episodes, we come to the end of our Ballad. There are banquets to be held, friends to reunite, and last magics to weave.

The Nightmare Krew has made their way to the coronation of the new Cordian Empress, only for Tatsu Valtameri intervene. They fell right into the Sage's plans, and became a terrifying Oizys, an avatar of sorrow and grief. And as the senators rush out of the hall, and Sage Lucien attempts to make one final ploy, the last domino in a long journey begins to fall...Find your way to the scrying pool kno...

The Nightmare Krew committed the first and cardinal sin of adventuring: they split the party. The Royal Heirs travelled to meet Empress Stefana LaFleur at the High City bathhouse, while the rest of the Krew assumed the mantle of gardeners to keep watch outside. After a series of emotional and unfortunate revelations, the game is now afoot. The Coronation of the Empress is mere moments away, and th...

Having answered many questions and birthed many more in the Revanite Catacombs, the Nightmare Krew has finally returned to the surface of Revan. The speakeasy they were hiding in was ambushed by a cohort of the Black Legion, forcing the Krew's plan into action. Now, assisted by Leonidas's kooky in-laws, they begin their final, secret approach into the High City, and their two targets residing ther...

Having delved as deep as they dared go through the Revanite Catacombs, the Nightmare Krew dispatched the clone of the Sage, only to find themselves challenged by the very thing they sought in these dark halls: the Temporite Tangle, bound in wards and runes. After arguing on how best to handle it, they transported it back to the Lucid Dream, and permanently polymorphed it into a...more manageable f...

The Nightmare Krew continues their exploration into the Revanite Catacombs, hoping to unearth the source of the Sage's power, and the reasons for which an empire was borne. Having harvested fungus from a druidic deep-dweller, and holding a vigil for a long-dead royal, the Krew found the spiritual resting place of the ancient Ruler of Revan, Oda Valtameri. But for each question Ryujin had Oda answe...

The Nightmare Krew continues their delving, within the treacherous halls of the Revanite Catacombs. Having just acquired the final skull required for their necessary passage deeper in the dark, the Krew decided to take a brief rest to replenish themselves before facing the next bleak step...Find your way to the scrying pool known as Bards of New York.

*The Nightmare Krew had a wistfully delightful breakfast in Nestleton, before reuniting with Yara, Keepa, Cora and the others. Once whole again, the Krew made their way to the Great Dead City, the heart of the Cordian Empire, Revan. But Lilith and Ryujin discovered the city was...improved? Perhaps cleaner and quieter than they remembered? Unsettled by the change, the Krew found their way to the Vi...

Settling back into the rhythm of Cordia, the Nightmare Krew got up to some fairly standard hijinks in the Rittenhask manor, including a STEAMY spa session, and an accidental venture into a familial playroom. But fortunes changed as the Krew discussed the events of the past year back in Cordia IV with Baron Rittenhask, only to discover Cordia was now officially an empire-by-force, with a VERY famil...

After keeping with tradition, and turning a simple day of shopping into absolute madness, the Nightmare Krew called once more on the power of the Dreaming Orrery, and passed through a Gate back to Cordia IV. Here, in the rural town of Nestleton, the Krew has visited the Rittenhasks! However not all is triumph and roses, as our Krew begins to learn of the losses incurred while they were away -- and...

At long last, the Nightmare Krew achieved what they set out into Wildspace to do: vanquished the Illithid threat, and severed the hand that led them, the Dark One, Vecna. Having briefly sojourned to the Rock of Bräl, picking up a stowaway to ferry home, and having had their fortunes frighteningly accurately read by the charming Desiderium, one last goal remains in sight of the Krew. Tonight, in th...

On the heel of a god-shattering wish, the Nightmare Krew glean what they can from the Dark One's study, before made to reckon with the Elder Brain's broken bargain. A fight ensued, and though doubtlessly tough, the Krew emerged victorious! But not before Sanctuary escaped to another plane, swearing it would hold its end of the bargain, in the face of the Krew's overwhelming power. Now, with their...

The Dark One stands before the Nightmare Krew. After all their struggle, the Krew's Sorcerer Serpent makes good on a debt from a Dice God and wishes: I WISH ALL THE POWER OF THE BEING STANDING BEFORE US, WHO IDENTIFIED ITSELF AS VECNA THE UNDYING ONE, WAS FOREVER AND PERMANENTLY STRIPPED FROM IT, AND THAT DIVESTED POWER SHALL BE SPLIT AND BESTOWED UPON ALL LIVING MEMBERS OF THE NIGHTMARE KREW FOR...

Having discovered the ruins of a civilization on the distant world of Orryndahl, the Nightmare Krew struck a bargain with a dying Elder Brain known as Sanctuary. They agreed to cleanse the Brain of its corruption, and in return, Sanctuary and it's brood would help them in their fight against Vecna, the Dark One. Having ventured into the Brain's mindscape and holding up their end of the bargain, th...

The Nightmare Krew narrowly escaped the Science and Research facility of the Illithid Empire, to venture to the surface of the nigh-dead world, Orryndahl. There, they made contact and brokered a deal with a beleaguered Elder Brain known as Sanctuary. If they could enter its mindscape and cleanse it of "the Dark One's corruption," then no harm would come to the Krew from its brood. The Brain might...

At long last, the Nightmare Krew has arrived on the doorstep of the reason they ventured into Wildspace: a vestige of the Illithid Empire, the Mind Flayers responsible for Reya-1 and the Fall of Mobiaux. The Krew, with the help of Kallias' Neogi vassal, Æg, have infiltrated the Illithid Science centre, narrowly escaping the Mind Flayer Commander and its pet Sibriex. But as the Krew heads to leave,...

After a feast befitting a sacrificial celebration hosted by the Vivarium, the Nightmare Krew attempted to find a peaceful sleep. But Lilith and Ryujin were denied such rest, plagued with visions of a violent future concerning Lilith's family, and Ryujin's red blade. Having reconciled this, the Krew used a living brain from the Nautiloid to track a signal, and chart their heading towards the mythic...

The Nightmare Krew carved their way through the colossal Scion of Surtr to use the Necterium, in order to restore the soul of their Voided comrade, Ember. The Warlock now returned both in body and mind (don't ask me how they skirted past my confines and invented time travel, I couldn't CARE to reopen that disaster), the Krew has returned to the Vivarium, home of Rek'Niht's reforged Kintsugi Clan....

Having laid their souls bare, the Nightmare Krew submitted their thoughts and memories for judgement, to wager for the last piece of Ember's soul. The Wager seems to have passed successfully, and Ember may in fact be whole again! Find your way to the scrying pool known as Bards of New York.

Kallias returned to the company of the Nightmare Krew, and the Scion of Surtr awoke from its eonic slumber. It immediately chose violence, to which the Krew responded in kind. Now the Cradle lies in ruins, and its child destroyed, but another threat remains in the way of the Krew and Ash's soul...Find your way to the scrying pool known as Bards of New York.
