## Resource

Todd is back to normal. Mostly. Probably. For now. After some unexpected divine intervention, the party tries to unpack Todd’s sudden transformation, his new connection to a terrifying rat patron, and the very inconvenient fact that this may happen again. Soon. But there’s still a festival to attend, babies to bless, and apparently baby versions of Thormir and Malcius to emotionally process. As the Blessing of the Newborns begins, the party learns more about the Unfated Ones, the prophecy tied to them, and just how weird this dreamlike world is becoming. DM: Jeffery Jordan Malcius: Travis Stewart Sefi: Morgan Gibson Thormir: Nick Miller Todd: Bryce Shearer Podcast art by Ada Hath Theme song "Royal Joust" by Bardcore.
