Feeling Good

The Acolytes in Sexy Tights travel to Avros and awaken the Raven Queen.

## Major Plot Points

#### Morning Tide

* The Acolytes arrived in the port city of Morning Tide, which was built on the back of Duke Atlas, the archfey of water and a gargantuan turtle.
* Still feebleminded, Sybil Ringwell played with her wand of wonder and accidentally created three undead creatures: a lobster, a seagull, and a starfish.
* An elderly woman named Titeville loudly cackled at the Acolytes finding their bickering and flamboyance highly entertaining. Muchomucho M Amor could sense she wielded powerful magic. Titeville bragged that she was highly talented with hexes and curses. She accepted Muchomucho's plea to remove Sybil's feeblemindedness, destroying the cursed stone in her crown. Sybil cast shatter on the crown in anger.
* In exchange for her help, Titeville created a magic earring for Muchomucho. This allowed her to listen to the Acolytes for more entertainment. When not providing running commentary, she performed ASMR.
* Gobbler the Cobbler came by and offered to fix the broken stone for free as he was a stonemason's apprentice. He was able to mend the stone and unleash its hidden luck magic for Sybil.
* Two ships crashed into each other in the nearby harbor. Smoke poured out of the now dim lighthouse. The party rushed up to see what happened to the lighthouse. When they reached the top level, they realized the smoke was enchanted. Barbara Duke saw a vision of Baba Yaga sitting on top of her hut while it smashed grapes for wine. Barb accosted the Archfey of Curses until the vision ended. Aryan Grande began to float up like a balloon. Sybil tried to grab her but failed and started to float up too. Barb tied a rope around Aryan and anchored her to Clows Kufas.
* When the smoke cleared, Dewey Thundersnatch noticed a parrot-like aarakocra knocked out on the ground. He was able to wake her up. Ruby said she must've mixed up her Everfire dust with her pixie dust. When Dewey mentioned the crashed ships in the harbor, she flew out the window.
* Bromo and Dewey went of to talk to Atlas. Bromo asked Atlas if he ever thought about shrugging and letting go of the responsibility of carrying Morning Tide. Atlas confessed he has battled dark thoughts but has found solace in the love of his people and through therapy. When he nuzzled his head against Bromo to comfort him and share how therapy might help him, Bromo cried but acted out as if he were offended by the insinuation. Dewey and Atlas spoke of Poseidra and their fondness for the ocean goddess. He gifted the triton a conch that casts Maelstrom once per day.
* The rest of the Acolytes went to the speakeasy underneath the lighthouse called The Turtle's Hole. They met the owner, Captain Catscade, a tabaxi pirate. When they shared they were looking for the Island of Avros, Catscade said he too was searching for the mysterious island. His old comrade, Captain Morgan Jack Daniels, was lost at sea and Catscade believed he ended up there. However, he couldn't get to Avros because he was the best captain in the Feywild and you can only find it by getting lost. The party agreed to help distract Catscade so he could sail them to the island. The tabaxi pirate warned that Avros was supposedly guarded by a scary crow woman. When Dewey and Bromo returned, they set sail on Catscade's ship, which was tied to a whale named Humphrey and encased in a magic bubble.
* Barb personally distracted Catscade in the captain's quarters. It wasn't long after they found themselves surrounded by a mysterious fog and close to an island.

#### Avros

* When Humphrey docked, the Acolytes saw a crow woman flying above the island's only structure - a giant sandcastle. The beach was littered with junk like unmatched socks, keys, old jewelry, wallets, and books.
* Captain Morgan Jack Daniels shouted to the party asking for a rescue. Captain Catscade got on all fours and ran towards the shipwrecked pirate. When he got close enough, he pounced and bit into Captain Morgan Jack Daniels' throat. The party was shocked and assumed Catscade wanted to reunite with his old friend, not kill him. Catscade said that Captain Morgan Jack Daniels took all the credit for their exploits. The last straw was when Captain Morgan Jack Daniels took the glory for punching all 80 mermaids at Mermaid Cove. Clows confirmed that history tells impressive tales of Captain Morgan Jack Daniels and Catscade was usually a secondary character.
* Sybil captured Captain Morgan Jack Daniels in her soul cage spell. Sybil saw the dead pirate's memories and they proved Catscade was telling the truth. Once they were assured Catscade would wait for them, they went off towards the sandcastle.
* Bromo flew over the moat surrounding the castle and successfully dodged jumping swordfish. He then let down the drawbridge for his friends.
* The party made it through the first room by placing an object they found in one of the many pools in a statue's hand.
* In a greenhouse, Bromo and Sybil were poisoned by the dust falling off of large butterflies. Bromo hacked and slashed all the plants to make the butterflies scatter. Muchomucho looked on in horror as he realized all the plants in the greenhouse were supposed to be extinct and were the last of their kind. Dewey was able to revivify one of the plants as it was a plant creature.
* The next chamber was incredibly humid and sticky. What looked like rock formations were actually teeth beginning to chew on the Acolytes. The party soon realized they were inside a mimic. Clows, Sybil, and Juxxtina became stuck to the monster's tongue and its acid burned them. Aryan cast blade barrier to floss their way out and create a path to the next room.
* In the library, a sage told the party they needed to read each other to filth to go on. Barb went in hot on Clows. The rest of the party read her.
* In the sandcastle's theater, the party found a band who could no longer play music. The singer lost her voice. The harpist lost her touch. And the flutist lost his breath. When Dewey asked how the harpist was tangible enough to stand on solid ground, she immediately phased through the floor and was never seen again. After they party helped the singer find her voice and the flutist catch his breath, they went entered the final chamber.
* A crow woman admired her collection of gemstones inside a magical laboratory. When the party explained what they were doing there, the crow woman introduced herself as Magpie, Archfey of the Lost and Forgotten and daughter of the Raven Queen. She was very confused why Muchomucho looked like the Raven Queen (it was thanks to his Raven pendant). Bromo's dolly confirmed she remembered seeing Magpie with baby Bromo and the Raven Queen. The two reunited siblings embraced one another. Magpie apologized for leaving Bromo behind. She explained that Baba Yaga put their mother in a coma and Magpie was able to rescue her after using the Raven Queen's mythalar to become an archfey herself. She created Avros to hide from the Sylvan and Grim Courts.
* Magpie led the Acolytes in a ritual to awaken the Raven Queen. Aryan drew musical notes on the floor in kraken ink and sang a song. Bromo danced around with his ice sword. Dewey misted the sleeping regent with water from the fountain of youth. Muchomucho channeled the genie's essence. The Raven Queen's hand rose and the angel sword flew away from Juxxtina and into archway's hand. She flew up into the air and embraced her children saying, "I have returned."
