What starts as peaceful meditation (and Sefi’s ill-advised mushroom trip) quickly spirals into a chaotic, high-stakes battle as Rory pushes the group far beyond their comfort zones. Between booming blades, teleporting strikes, bardic marches, shape-shifting, spore clouds, and a glowing mote that seems to have a will of its own, the team is forced to confront both their power and their limits. And as Rory ramps up the intensity, the line between “training” and “survival” gets thinner and thinner. Will the party rise to the challenge or crumble under the weight of Rory’s mysterious lessons? Strap in. This one gets wild. 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.
