Welp. That’s one death that can’t be reversed. I know this is going to weigh heavy on the party, but I think Bastion is going to feel it the most. Poor guy…he’s been through so much. I hope defeating Auril will help redeem him. I hope Amaunator is still around for him. I hope he sees the sun. Music courtesy of Max Hedman Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat

Okay so I know I went on this whole tirade about hags last time, but I’m honestly starting to hate these magen things as well. I understand that they don’t have a free will but come on. Also, who told them to go attack the bitterhearts?? It angers me endlessly. Auril needs to come down already so they have another target. Right, Max Hedman? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

Does anyone else here just absolutely loathe hags? Just me? They always have some shit to say or do that I don’t like. It genuinely pisses me off. GODS they make me so mad. I wish our party wasn’t battered to hell so they could kill these fools. Oh well, a few stolen memories aren’t the worst thing. Also the way it is described isn’t how memories work..I’m not going to go on a tangent here. Max He...

So we’ve got the wand! Now we just need to find out the rest of the clues and then do this Arcane Octad! All before Auril can get down here! Also before Avarice figures it out as well. No biggie! If anyone can do it, it’s our heroes! I wonder what this woman encased in ice is all about though? Very intriguing, wouldn’t you say Max Hedman? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat (if you have made it thi...

These steps are pretty confusing to me. Why would the people of Ythryn design a system like this? Or maybe it’s the nature of the magic that requires it? I’m not certain, but it’s too much. I’d have stopped once I found out there were eight steps to this thing. I guess that’s why I’m not part of this group, right Max Hedman? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat. (Also, if you read this description l...

Not these things again! Who designed these creatures?! Whoever did needs to be smote. I hope it was Auril, because she needs to be smote anyway. Hopefully our heroes make it out of this situation so they can actually fight her. Also I figured she’d be here by now, what gives? Very weird how empty this city seems to be. Right, Max Hedman? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

Well we’ve finally made it to Ythryn and I’m feeling a bit sad. At least Bastion got some form of closure. I hope he can find some kind of life after this adventure. What say you, Max Hedman? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

Wow, a lot happened last time. I can understand if you need a little breather. Why not read this description to ease your mind? Reading something from a friendly perspective can help, or so I’ve been told. I think Logic did the right thing. I don’t think our heroes had a fight in them. It would have been hard fought, and they would have lost. It couldn’t have been avoided. Also those Nothic were v...

Okay so those guys came out of nowhere. Maybe they’ll know where the hostages are? I hope we can find them soon. I worry for poor little Toe’s life. He’s truly the best of us, wouldn’t you agree Max Hedman? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

Oh, so Bastion is like GETTING his memories back. That’s good…I hope. What if we find out Bastion’s master was actually evil? Or Bastion is some kind of time bomb? I’m not sure I like this dungeon anymore. Max Hedman, can you please play me something to soothe my soul? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

What a nasty, nasty vampire. Good thing our Bastion had sunlight! It truly came in clutch. It’s almost like he was made for this dungeon..which would be impossible. What do you mean this is where he’s from? Oh man, this must be a blast from the past for him. You got any songs to go with that, Max Hedman? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

Oh Finger, what can I say about you? Not much really. You seemed like a good guy, and I’m sorry you had to go the way you did. Perhaps this is what Bastion needs to push himself forward. I guess we shall soon find out, eh? Max Hedman, let’s play a song in remembrance of a real one. Sound Effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

Okay, I did NOT see that coming. Finger becoming a vampire? Or at least I assume he’s a vampire if he’s sucking on rats. He could just really have a thing for rat blood. It’s good that Bastion was the one to find him though, no? As a person without blood he’s pretty much the most qualified to handle such a creature. What do you think, Max Hedman? Spooky, right? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

Talk about a deus ex machina (am I using that correctly?) there at the end. Though I guess our heroes could have mopped up the remainder of the Reghed nomads. At least now we have more Tall Tree! This party is getting pretty big! I hope this doesn’t mean combat will take longer though. What say you, Max Hedman? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

Okay so like I’m not the only one mad about those kobolds, right? Like I feel like that was just unfair. Personally. Where did these three come from, anyway? I mean I guess the mine. But still. Bastion wasn’t even there for those quests! Why was he punished?? Max Hedman, can you make it make sense to me? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

So Auril is the absolute worst, we can all agree on that. Gods she makes me so angry. Why does she even want the Dale? No one wants to worship her here. Go somewhere else! There are plenty of people who will worship you…just not here! Max Hedman this makes me so mad. I really could just explode. Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat

What a blow! Finally! Good news for ONCE!! Gods I am so excited I could just scream. Without her Roc, Auril can’t make the rime, right?? This is monumental. Max Hedman, break out the brandy! We’re celebrating tonight! Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

Oh boy… this is the moment we have been waiting for folks. Auril is front and center and ready to fight. I wish our heroes had gotten more of a rest, but it is what it is at this point. I have faith that they will pull through! They’ve beaten everything thrown at them so far…well majority of them have at least. What do you think, Max Hedman? Want to place bets? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

These tests are so brutal. I get that Auril is an evil goddess, but come on! Also these all seem very dependent on time frame. What happens if someone comes here in a week? Do they repeat these same tests? Probably not I would imagine. But then what are the tests?? It’s all so confusing. Right, Max Hedman? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

I…I don’t know what to say. These tests were bad. Auril is not a good goddess. If our heroes weren’t heroes I’d be fine with everything. But they are. And those tests were ostensibly non-heroic. It’s just a lot to take in I think. Max Hedman, let’s go somewhere to contemplate everything. Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

Ukuma seems like such a kind soul, I hope our heroes don’t have to fight her at any point. Also what are these tests? They’re a little concerning, truth be told. Anything that is titled after a god frightens me. Right, Max Hedman? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

Now it is finally time to enter the domain of Auril. What will our heroes find in Grimskalle? Nothing good, I can assure you. One can only hope they find what they are looking for! Right, Max Hedman? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

What a harrowing fight! Our heroes truly are lucky, I’m not sure there are many who could have survived that altercation. Yet survive they did! And they will continue to survive as they go on to face the Frost Maiden herself…hopefully. I’ll be honest, Max Hedman, I’m getting nervous. I hope our party can do it. Can you play me something to help ease my nerves? Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.

Woah.. Logic.. has now mysteriously doubled? What harrowing situation will our adventurers have to muck through now? Stay tuned to find out.

By all that is holy…I can’t be the only one frightened right now, right?? I’m shaking as if I was on the island with them. Nothing good can come from being here, but be here our heroes must. Let’s keep them in our thoughts, please. Max Hedman, please play us a song to keep us strong and warm. Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.
