All's Well That Ends Well

"**All's Well Ends Well**" is the 30th session of Campaign 2.0.

## Summary

* DRAGON! We all face off against Zim! Yuan’Da’Nal panickily babbles an apology to Runya - “*This is all my fault, I didn’t mean for this to happen—“* And the poor girl immediately crumples to the ground unconscious after Zim unleashes a blast of his acid breath onto us.
* Gareth darts towards her, scoops her up, and heals her back to consciousness! *“Don’t die,”* he grumbles. She thanks him!
* Boom pow kick. We try to start wailing into this dragon, but for some reason we fucking suck at rolling dice, and none of our attacks are hitting.
* In the midst of the battle, a lone dagger spins through the air and is launched straight into Zim! Who the heck was that? It's Kaid and Spirit, that's what!
* *"The only one killing her is gonna be me!”* he shouts before leaping into the fray. Who’s *her*? What’s even happening? Whatever, we need the help.
* With the combined efforts of everyone, we really do a number on Zim. He takes off into the air before Angeal clasps her holy symbol... and prays for her goddesses’ assistance in this time of need.
* And miraculously enough, she rolls a 1 for her Divine Intervention ability. A rift tears across the open space above Zim, and thousands of thousands ravens spill out of the tear in reality. They fucking peck him to death as he bellows *“NO! NOOOO—“* and then he explodes into a bunch of hunks of dragon meat.
* The battle’s over. Everyone sits in place, absolutely speechless over what’s happened. Bryna pipes up with *“Runya, I think you’ve got your dragon’s blood.”*
* Yuan’Da’Nal gives her sincerest apologies. Apparently, she learned the pocket dimension spell from a random spell book she had found laying around... and she was never aware of the fact that it was a shared dimension that Zim could access this entire time. She starts crying, poor girl. Luckily, she’s retrieved the artifact from the carnage and intends on returning it to the Augury.
* Malveria hurriedly begins to sample what she can of Zim’s blood. Sulelia walks up to her. She thanks Malveria for everything she’s done... And Sulelia is very, very glad she talked to her. Malveria is glad, too, and Sulelia wraps her in a giant hug that Malveria happily returns.
* Angeal puts a hand on Malveria’s shoulder. Although deeply upset by her initial betrayal, Angeal will decide to forgive her for what she’d done. Malveria appreciates it.
* Runya approaches Kaid. She asks if she can talk to him *alone*, and Kaid supposes they can. They walk off. Minutes later we hear Kaid exclaim *“You left me in there for a STONE?!”* Runya furiously storms back into the chamber. She just CAN’T RIGHT NOW, OKAY? SHE JUST CAN’T.
* Jeez. Kaid pouts in a corner. Sulelia and Bryna ask him what the heck that was all about. Kaid huffs that it’s what he gets for falling in love with a lady who got him trapped in a dungeon and cursed. He protests that he didn’t always look like a horrifying corpse mummy.
* Bryna’s curious. She infuses the Disguise Self spell into a diamond and tosses it towards him. *“What DID you look like, then?*
* Kaid expends the spell inside the diamond and transforms into a hot as *fuck* pink tiefling man... Flowing dark locks... Short devil horns... Just an absolute dreamboat. He goes on to explain that he was a prince hailing from the Elemental Plane of Fire. He gave up his standing and wealth to venture out onto the material plane and live a life of adventuring!
* He decided his first escapade would have to be reaaaal big, so he decided to rob Wenshire’s keep - and lo and behold, upon sneaking in, he was greeted by the end of Runya’s gun barrel... and was smitten right then and there. ROMANTIC!
* That is until he got fucked over by her. Kaid, Malveria and Yuan’Da’Nal journeyed out to the cave we found him in to obtain something Runya needed, and, well... he ended up becoming trapped in the dungeon. The other two escaped, and there wasn’t much to be done about him, so they left Kaid there...
* The dungeon cursed him to look like a shambling raggedy corpse monster, which sucks. Bryna wonders if there’s anything that can be done for him. She calls Angeal over and asks to see if she can reverse Kaid’s affliction. Angeal casts Remove Curse on him, and Kaid reverts back to his original form! His voice is no longer raspy and is instead silk smooth and sexy. He gives his thanks to Angeal!
* Gareth’s got the stares. He be lookin’ at Yuan’Da’Nal. Thomal eggs him on. Gareth, go say something to her...! Angeal agrees, he should give her flowers! Sulelia tells him he should make his move. Bryna urges that it’s now or never. Gareth sputters in indignation, but can’t keep his eyes off of her...
* Ultimately, when all’s said and done, we decide to venture back to Runewatch together in a big ol’ group.
* Angeal and Gareth have a moment together. Gareth is ever-freaked out by Angeal’s creepy raven god stuff and the fact that she’s immensely powerful... But is thankful nonetheless. He expresses frustration with bryna and how she’s shattered any ounce of trust she shared with the group. Angeal supposes they’ll have to sit her down for that some time soon.
* The following days are full of goofy antics. Sulelia and Dorj make good friends! She gifts him her ring that can summon frogs, and as stoic (and quite literally expressionless) as he is, he is absolutely delighted by its capabilities.
* Bryna tries to get Gareth hitched with Yuan’Da’Nal with Malveria’s help. Bryna begs Malveria to put in a good word for him. She’ll see what she can do!
* Gareth’s attempts at making conversation with Yuan’Da’Nal are absolutely pitiful. He’s hopelessly awkward and she’s not exactly the most receptive of it all. Upon watching it all go down, Malveria is sputtering with laughter...
* Speaking of romance in the air... Runya and Kaid seem to be getting along better! The two walk with each other without any yelling, so that’s good.
* Sulelia, Thomal, Dorj, and the tiefling twins all have a wrestling match that kinda just devolves into a straight up brawl. There’s many bruises and hurt feelings afterwards, but more so on Sulelia and Thomal’s side.
