Finally arriving in Sarajevo, the party goes to around the town while killing time to go to their court date to determine if Vaedyn is indeed a father and to see what the court system wants to do about their 'alleged' button heist. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aunaturoll/support

The party continues to fight for their lives over the staff and abandon the university the moment they have it in hand retreating across the continent to where this whole story began for some of them.  All the way back at the Everrose Tree where they spend a VERY well deserved rest. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aunaturoll/support

Continuing their way to the staff that Mendicus seeks, they finally make their way to it... but it is heavily guarded by a large number of skeletons.  Will they prevail? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aunaturoll/support

Firstly, just wanted to apologize for the times between episodes lately. Hopefully life will slow down soon.  Your patience, kind words, and continued watching of our chaotic series is very appreciated.  Now for the episode description.  This episode the group continues further into the Home of the Dead.  Finding a quiet courtyard they take the time to explore their options on where to go next and literally pick every wrong door possible. Statistically unlikely really,  but they manage to do it.  Then we get some mission impossible style stealth rolls from our players as they try to move on without dealing with any of the creatures in their path. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aunaturoll/support

The party is able to deceive their way into the home of the dead and now have to work through the trials set up by the wizards who have guarded this malice place from foreign invaders and seekers of power. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aunaturoll/support

Mendicus finishes reading the book learning much about Hex.  The group continues their journey to The Home of the Dead passing through a few small villages but ultimately being stopped by the guards outside.  Also, Alkahest seems to have a never ending taste for metal desiring to eat more and more of it. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aunaturoll/support

The group begins their journey towards the home of the dead for a mysterious reason only known to Mendicus.  On this path, they meet a few strangers, some bringing bad and worse news, while the other brings good and great news. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aunaturoll/support

The group is finally done with the beholder and into safety. They get paid for their job, Pavel finally wakes up and now they are off to the Library to see if they can repair it even if they are still missing 1 piece of glass. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aunaturoll/support

Pavel falls into a magical coma. Why? We aren't sure yet, but it has something to do with Melora. The Collective continues to fight the beholder and the hatching Tehb'Yeq brain creatures.  After a hard fought victory the party goes through a magical tree growing from the beholder, gets  their money from Mayor Mc'Butt-stuff-fun-stuff and goes to find Aeralius who has had some rumors floating about him.  After finding their young kobald, they learn something disturbing. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aunaturoll/support

Finally in the beholder lair, Yosmorn returns just in time, much to his chagrin.  The battle commences. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aunaturoll/support

Moments away from finding the beholder, the group is confronted by an assassin of Hex's sent to kill Mendicus.  A battle brews and it is a doozy. Emotions are high and tense. The end of this episode was one of my favorite moments i've ever had the pleasure of DMing.   Thank you so much to my players and you listeners that make it possible for this to happen each and every week. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aunaturoll/support

Today, we find ourselves stepping away from our group of adventurers, and we instead will be kept company by the origin story of a tangential member of the Collective. This tale takes place not in Deitas, but also not entirely outside of Deitas. But rather than staring at the forest, let's focus in some on the trees within. As we zoom in we find a countryside of small villages, isolated, though less than a days travel from one another. Traveling between the villages is for those important enough to do so and for those wealthy enough to hire Travelers to guide them through the labyrinth of passageways designed to protect the villages. If we shift our vision in on one of those villages, we will find the most quaint and pastoral scene. Farmers out working hard in the field, smithies hammering in their heat filled forges, tailors sewing perfect stitches into the next shirt to be sold, and so on. And if we move a little farther inwards we find ourselves looking at a kitchen that was more ingredients than walls and floor, and in the center of this mess is a small, rather young, though a bit older on this day, kobald wielding a comically large spoon stirring a tasty concoction. Now if anyone had ever wondered how many teeth a kobald had, there was no need to look any further than this flour dusted copper scaled kobald who was smiling from literal ear to ear. And he had reason to smile so. Today was his birthday and more than that, today was the day his friends from nearby villages would all get to meet each other and celebrate his special day with him. Speaking of those friends, let's go meet them and see what this elated kobald has in store for them. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/aunaturoll/support
