## Resource

After their brutal battle with the bandits, tensions simmer as the party hauls their prisoners back toward Beckinsdale, only for Thormir’s glowing mote to suddenly dart off the path, leading them into a mysterious spore-filled forest. There, they encounter Rory , a weathered dwarven druid wreathed in fungi who claims to be a guide across worlds. Inside his glowing mushroom cottage, the party meets Rory’s strange companion, Sebastian, and learns cryptic truths about their own motes, the nature of the “Unfated Ones,” and the multiverse itself. As Rory challenges each of them: Malcius wrestling with mercy, Sefi seeking purpose, Todd confronting his inner darkness, and Thormir learning the deeper bond with his mote, the group begins to understand that saving the world may first require saving themselves.
