The games continue as Peach Pie takes to the gladiatorial ring, followed by Jizz.... don't ask. Afterwards we meet with Zavizek and make future plans. We then head back to the Inn for even more plans. It remains to be seen if any plans are actually good ones.

We do a bit more shopping and once again meet briefly with Lavikar Shraen. We spend another night in the mansion and do some rune swapping. The next day it's off to the Red Circus where we meet it's ringleader Zavizek Shraen. Starting to think there's some nepotism going on in this city called Shraen. We find ourselves entered into some gladiatorial games because circuses are differ...

We spend our first day in Shraen uncovering plots and great bargains! It appears there's much to do in this city run evil undead drow and we're just getting started.

After finally finishing the temple where we hoped to find the orb, we instead find a new friend in a former slave of a mummy named Dizallen Shraen. She shares a few secrets of the temple with us, we also get drunk and discuss future plans. From there we murder a different friend, oops. Then on to the necropolis of Shraen intself.

There's two rooms left in the Temple of Xul-Khundur. In the first we encounter a bunch of golems who are hard to kill but also largely ineffective. From there we buff up and head into what must be the final room, ready for tough boss fight. This ends up being partly true. In the aftermath of the battle we converse with a new frenemy. By the time it's all said and done we're finally...

Within the Temple of Xul-Khundur there's many doors to open. Behind one we find some big watery worms who we fight and pull some shenanigans on. From there it's more doors and more deliberately awkward conversations between Nidec and Peach Pie. Well, anyway...

After dealing with Nidec "stealing" the talking dagger we continue to explore the Temple of Xul-Khundur. We find a room with a warning and decide to skip it. We go into another room with a familiar monster and everyone hates it, Nidec more than the rest. From there we opt to un-skip the previous room.

The Wizard starts reading a bunch of xulgath tablets, also a coded journal that he decodes almost instantly. The rest of us explore around and find at least one new friend! As the Wizard continues reading someone else makes a decision that could cost them their life! Plots thicken.

We explore a bit in the Temple of Xul Kundur. After going through a few doors we find a room filled with many enemies and about eight times as many legs. After the battle our explorations continue until we find a library which halts the Wizard.

We finally make our way actually into the temple where we find an ancient welcoming party. From there we begin to explore deeper and find some things.

We spend a night in the mansion and the next day continue to explore the temple. We find at its top a sacrificial alter covered in ancient blood. We're attacked by a couple guardians. Afterwards we are yelled at by yet another talking weapon, Jeb is nonplused. We investigate around and find a horrible monster, before deciding to go in through the doors.

We regroup before checking our clues and figuring out where to go next. We head towards the temple and eventually find it. Once their we encounter a couple badass skeletons with scythes, they don't like us much.

After failing to ciruisily impress a goddamn haunt it decides to attack us. It's annoying. Eventually we run away except Nidec who can't be hurt by it and convinces it to stop. From there we head to our next clue destination where we encounter a magnificent monster.

We break out into combat with a giant crimson worm. One particular circus performer has a very bad day. We hit level 16, and the the next morning Jeb seems somehow changed... also everything is soggy. We come to a lake in the jungle and swim to a small island. From there things go poorly.

After the Blood Feast and our meeting with the Urdefen leader we go to interrogate a prisoner. We take a rather lighter and more apathetic approach than he's probably used to. We rest the night and the next day head out towards the Cradle of Worms with the prisoner and an urdfen scout in toe. Four days later we finally get there. Somewhere in between Jeb throws a dagger. Come talk to us and o...

We make our way to the Urdeffen camp where we're marginally welcomed. We partake in some event called the Blood Feast and it's every bit as disgusting as it sounds. We proport ourselves well enough though, it seems, as the warchief invites us to his quarters after the festivities.

After demolishing the bat riders we see a new threat looming, some giant demon thing. Unbeknownst to the rest of the party, Swany's new character is with it. Combat begins abruptly and some interesting developments come about.

Still reeling from a sudden death the remaining members of The Circus of Wayward Wonders resolve to continue the mission even if it means all of their deaths. Fueled by a combination of rage and despair we go head to head with a local "welcoming" party. There's also some dude named Nidec who has a few lines.

After fighting some huge purple worms we come face to face with a colossal monstrosity. After some confusion we decide it's best to flee. From there, things only get worse... much worse.

We rest and loot and rest some more before finally heading into the vault of the black sands. Once there we encounter some truly gargantuan enemies.

After finishing up in a psychedelic mushroom cave we continue to explore. We pass through a long tunnel and at the end of it find some old ruins, beyond which we can finally see the vault of the black sands. Some giant doors are in our way, though, and as soon as we try to bypass them all hell breaks loose. In the end, something tragic occurs. Come talk to us and other MNmaxed listeners in our Dis...

Immediately after defeating the tree monsters a gang of mosquito monsters set upon us. They're pretty weak and get crushed fairly easily but along the way Moonlight possess one without the rest of us realizing and we pretty much kill Moonlight. From there we explore and find some interesting memories buried in the Darklands. Come talk to us and other MNmaxed listeners in our Discord https://d...

Shortly after meeting our doggo friend and talking our way past some powerful seeming local, we find ourselves in a cavern with a lot of water and tree sized mushrooms. As we begin to navigate through it some monsters decide they don't want us there and combat ensues.

We find ourselves in the Darklands and it's both ominous and oddly beautiful. We quickly encounter some enemies but also shortly encounter some friends. There's a long way to go to get to our destination though.

After the interviews we head to the final Aeon Tower and find it occupied. Not by xulgaths, but by a small contingent of druids who call themselves the Order of the Empty Stones. They're seemingly well intentioned if not a bit useless. We formulate a plan to go into the darklands and retrieve this tower's missing Aeon Stone. After a week of prep, we get teleported down into the forbiddin...
