🗡️ Arc: Forest of Beginnings

📜 Episode Summary:

A new day, a new disaster. After a nauseating night in the elven town of Variya, Snow wakes up to find she's a public menace. Her attempt to wash away the previous night's... indiscretions... in the town's sacred river leads to a full-blown panic.

Things quickly go from bad to worse as a heated argument erupts with Clyde, and the town guards come knocking. Can she talk her way out of trouble, or will her party have to bail her out?

🎲 Dice rolls, questionable decisions, and unexpected allies await.

🔁 We’ll continue updating our backlog as we grow — thank you for supporting our evolution!

Under the watchful eye of the Sacred Order, the party slipped into the Imordun mass, unaware that time itself was unraveling beneath their feet. The Far Traveler’s warning proved all too real when Finavir’s mind fractured under the weight of Cognitive Disjunction. Memories twisted, snapped, and reformed—culling his memory of his past in service of the Sacred Order; the purpose of their mission lost to him.

But time waits for no one. Pressing onward, they infiltrated the Bishop’s quarters in search of the ledger. But with this loss of memory, Finavir found himself caught unawares when he discovered in his possession an identical book he thought to compare with the Bishop's. The resulting temporal explosion rippled through the chamber, sending guards rushing to investigate.

Steel met flesh. Magicka crackled. The battle was swift, and the party emerged victorious. With the ledger in hand, they vanished into the city’s underbelly, unaware of the ripples still spreading in their wake.
