## Episodes

### Episode One

Following the confrontation at Adria and Hush's death, Azriel, Sark, and Bonk Chongo rest on Captian Cassius's ship, the Aquila. They meet Nomrick Brewborn, and share some drinks. Then, the Aquila is stopped by a Suuzdaal blockade and a tense interaction between the two opposing captains occurs. The group is almost discovered, but fortune looks their way and they stay unnoticed and afterwards, they play dice games with Nomrick and Cassius. The party asks Cassius and nom rick about their past and adventures. They divulge that they are from Zendia and Poenas Dare! Excited that someone finally understands what happened to them, they ask more questions and find out that Cassius has seen raiders with the same white mask Willis wore. The next day, the ship arrives at the pirates hideout, the Black Bay, and Azriel and Sark agree to deliver a shipment to a local tribe while the pirate crew ready the ship for a journey to Gods' Fist. Accompanied by Chongo, Nomrick, and the bookkeeper Heizem, they arrive at the village and find it in disarray. A panicked woman runs up to them and explains all able-bodied villagers, mostly children, have been kidnapped by raiders. She begs the group to rescue them from the raiders' mine hideout. The party agrees and head out to save the children...

### Episode Two

The episode opens as Sark, Azriel, Nomrick, and Chongo look over the entrance to the mine from a nearby ridge. They stealthily take out the guards outside and venture forth. Wearing the guards clothing as a disguise, they find relative ease in exploring the hazy interior of the mine, taking out guards, and unshackling the slave children. As they come closer to the end of the mine, they see a raider wearing a mask exit an office and walk through a passage. They enter his office and discover a letter to an "Alcibiades" about the attack on Adria. They pursue the man and find themselves on an entryway overlooking a large chamber. In the middle runs a deep chasm full of lava, and on the other side across a rope bridge is an alter and more guarded cages of children. The masked man then cites a ritual to the alter and plunges his hand into the chest of one of the children, pulling out a still-beating heart. He then feeds the heart, now engulfed in flames, to a nearby raider. Seeing enough to feel comfortable condemning the man to death, Nomrick and Azriel approach the bridge while Sark flies overhead. The raiders enter the bridge and close in on the group. Through what must of been a stroke of genius, Azriel and Nomrick cut the ropes of the bridge they stand on much to the dismay of Sark. The masked man and another guard successfully held on to a plank, but many others fall into the pit below. Azriel struggles with the masked man but eventually kicks him into the pit, saving his mask. On the other side of the bridge, Nomrick struggles to pull himself up and almost falls into the pit when a guard on the ridge above swings at him. Sark summons a flock of Abyssal Chickens on the group of guards near Nomrick, giving him an opening. With the last of the raiders cleared and the cages unlocked, the party escape as the mine begins to collapse. Now outside and safe, they are approached by a two strange men. They explain that they have observed the party and their chief wishes to reward them. With Heizem and Chongo in tow, they set out to the tribe...
