Episode 11
C1 | Bears, Bombs, Battle with the Abrogate | S1E11
A simple interrogation goes sideways fast.
Inside the Ghosts of Ghorelitch headquarters, the crew barely has time to process one explosion before the next threat comes crashing through the smoke. Bombs, blades, magic, and one very large problem turn a locked-room interrogation into a brutal fight for survival.
The Abrogate is no longer just a rumor. They are here, they are organized, and they know exactly who they came for.
As Seraphina’s past catches up with her in the worst possible way, the party is pushed to its breaking point. Bodies hit the floor, old names carry new danger, and one question hangs over the city: how many people in Virelia are already marked for death?
And who decides which name comes next?

Episode 10
C1 | In the Room Where it Happened | S1E10
The safest room in Virelia might be the most dangerous one.
Hidden in Ashward with the royal family, the crew finally has a moment to breathe, ask questions, and piece together what the night has revealed. The king is awake, old secrets are surfacing, and every answer seems to point toward something buried deeper than politics.
But when a captured enemy offers the first real thread to pull, the room turns tense fast.
Names are spoken. Loyalties are tested. Bloodlines, old wounds, and dangerous magic all collide as the party learns that the people hunting them may be closer, older, and far more prepared than anyone wanted to believe.
And in Virelia, even a locked room is never truly safe.

C1 | What's the Procedure | S1E9
The procedure is simple.
Survive first. Ask questions later.
With the castle under attack and the royal chambers no longer safe, the party is forced into a desperate escape through hidden walls, old tunnels, and secrets buried beneath Castle Gorlitch itself. Every step pulls them deeper into a legacy of blood, betrayal, and power that none of them fully understand.
But getting out alive is only the beginning.
As the royal family fractures under the weight of old truths, the party must decide what comes next: run, fight, hide, or face the rot spreading through Virelia before it consumes everything left standing.
And somewhere in the quiet after the chaos, old memories begin to wake.

Episode 8
C1 | Like Father Like Son | S1E8
Blood calls to blood.
And not all of it is loyal.
After surviving a shared vision of ruin, the party pushes deeper into the heart of power itself, Castle Gorlitch, where wealth, control, and secrets sit behind guarded walls.
But something is wrong.
Old systems are failing. Trust is thin. Beneath polished stone and royal expectation, cracks are already spreading.
As truths begin to surface about lineage, legacy, and what the crown has tried to bury, the party finds themselves caught in something far more dangerous than politics.
Because while they search for answers…
The attack has already begun.

C1 | In the Wake of the Lumora | S1E7
They saw how it ends.
Now they have to stop it.
After witnessing a future where Virelia is torn apart by something far worse than war, the crew is left with a choice: run… or become the only thing standing in its way. But knowing what’s coming doesn’t make them ready for it.
As tensions rise and alliances begin to crack, even a simple move through the city turns dangerous. Eyes are watching. Blades are ready. And not everyone hunting them plans to miss twice.
Because this time… they’re not the only ones who remember what’s coming.
