As we resume our story in 2026, we also resume the story of Lichen, Tam, and the rest of the crew of the White Wake! After turning over the newly transported and slightly emptied vault ship to Admiral Cassian, Lichen, Tam, and Burgen take some much-needed rest and plan their next steps. Lichen takes a dip, Burgen budgets for new equipment, and Tam gives out a few hugs.

Our new dynamic duo continues toward Ashburrow after deciding what to do with Fray the bandit leader. Ash and Sparky investigate a hole, and Ricky stays true to his character.

Our diversionary story opens in the town of Meadowfen, where the heat is oppressive and that isn’t the only thing. Ricky considers breaking a window, Ash ponders a malpractice case, and adventure staggers into town.

We knew this day was coming, and it has arrived! Little did we know that while we were recording this Session 0 for our “diversion” mini-arc, Michael and his wife were welcoming their new son into the world!  Everyone is happy and healthy, but while Michael focuses on his growing family, Ben, Nathanael, and special guest Matthew Berry embark on a new adventure from the Hit Point Press sourcebook, Humblewood! In this session 0 we go over some character stuff, as well as background for the world and the adventure.

In an actually planned, mapped out, carefully executed, and extremely serious talk back episode, Ben, Michael, and Nathanael go over all the loot we just got from the Vault Ship. We also step back through some of the events that have happened since we last did a full-on recap. While Tam, Lichen, and the crew of the White Wake are on hiatus, stay tuned for more adventures, DnD deep dives, and general nerdiness.

Due to real-world obligations pulling Nathanael away, Ben and Michael jump in to discuss more about Tam and Lichen and the actual mechanics and numbers on the character sheets. Michael delivers some big news, and (surprising no one) Ben laughs a lot.

Fresh off their interesting conversation with Mortifia the golden tiefling, the away team of the White Wake go about setting the other prisoners free and trying to find a way back to safety. Lichen looks out a window, and Tam gets everyone wet.

The time has finally come for our heroes to try and access the treasures kept under lock and spell on board The Emperor’s Banner. But the ticking clock of the return to the material plane hovers over them as well. Tam tries some things, Lichen meets a stranger, and Burgen has a lucky number.

Tam, Lichen, and Burgen assess their new surroundings and decide how to proceed now that the vault ship has hopped into the Astral Sea. Lichen picks a lock, and Tam chooses a helper.

The interlopers meet with the Vault Master and the con is well and truly ON. Lichen works his charms, and Tam preaches patience.

Lichen and Tam set foot on the Vault Ship. What awaits them as they weave their tangled web of lies and half truths? One day Ben will get his mic input locked down AND the instagram handle correct in the same episode. Alas… today was not that day. This time it seemed to be a cable issue, not simply incompetence. @acrosstheglasssea Music and Sound Effects Courtesy of Tim at Tabletop Audio - tabletopaudio.com Tracks Used - Pirates, Western Watchtower, Halfling Sneak, Rise of the Golem, The Great Lift

With great power, comes great responsibility. At least, with real-world jobs, comes occasional scheduling difficulties. Unfortunately for the campaign, Michael had to fill in for an important meeting very last minute and wasn't able to join us to record a story session. So instead, Ben and Nathanael decided to talk about random DnD stuff again. We hope you enjoy it, and we should be back to Tyroa in two weeks! Also, here is our Instagram again, in case you wanna really pour over the 4 images we have up thus far...

Tam and Lichen bask in the glow of their success and set in motion the plan to bluff their way onto the Admiralty Vault Ship. Lichen plays a role, and Tam enjoys some brunch. Also, we keep forgetting to mention it, but we are trying to be more active on our Instagram account! We are posting some of the maps and legends, as well as other stuff from time to time!

Lichen and Tam work to put Lady Neema’s gift to good use. Like Tam always says, “Hachiman favors the prepared.” Lichen tries to get noticed, and Tam provides some backup. Apologies for the poor quality of Ben's audio. There was an oversight on which input was being recorded. Ironically, Ben is the one that drives everyone crazy trying to eliminate background noise and get everything “juuuuuuuuust right” for recording.

The crew of the White Wake deal with the aftermath of the battle with the sound elemental and eventually make their way into the bustling port city of Porto Medio. Lichen plays tour guide, and Tam defends his fashion sense. In case you missed it, we’ve been doing this for over a year! Thanks to everyone who has been listening and adventuring along! It has been a blast, and we are still enjoying telling stories with and for each other, and for you guys as well. Here’s to another year of ridiculousness and dice rolls with friends!
