Act 5 Episode 7: Pillars of Prasadi Society, Wood Pun Goes Here

2025-10-01

It turns out that it's the end of Descending Wood when the Circle got to Prasad, which means it's time for a very unusually...sensual festival! As our heroes scamper around Kamthahar for intel to begin their raid on the Dragonblooded kingdom's jade reserves, they realize that Shrike's background plans are more immediately dangerous than they assumed. Lythander seduces a very legitimate shopkeeper (no, not like that) to trade favors (again, not like that) for Artifacts that definitely aren't stolen! Gavel turns a war ...

Lythander seduces a very legitimate shopkeeper (no, not like that) to trade favors (again, not like that) for Artifacts that definitely aren't stolen! Gavel turns a war room into a war conference hall with all the intricacies of Prasadi and Realm politics she encounters: to get out of this guerilla raid alive, she'll need to use all of this information wisely indeed! Aura visits a hobby shop and learns some really bad news about El Dorado: the messed up hell immortality city has been subject to...corporate espionage! Nellens Liza breaks it to the Circle that the Realm's firedust keg is, somehow, exponentially bigger than the one the whole Dreaming Sea is right now! And, as hinted above, Shrike's exact plans become clear: if he wins, BOTH sides of this war lose. So, the Circle also pulls double duty to investigate his plans and...multiple disturbing conspirators...
