Its been a whole year since we last heard from our prisoners, Salem, Salah and Yaphet, on the mysterious prison planet. So, we start off this episode reminding ourselves what happened back then as much for our benefit as for our listeners. Then the first half of this episode consists of the last half hour of the previous session last year, which wasn't included in the 'cast, then we move on to with the first half hour of the latest session. There is lots of in character discussion in the episode, with perhaps just one dice roll...If you want to go back and listen to the original recordings of the last session, you will find them here.Effekt is brought to you by Fictionsuit and RPG Gods.

Listen in horror as Tony ... ugh ... “Ovomorphs” someone, turning them into an egg with a facehugger inside. Which is surely kind of, you know ... having sex with a paralysed body? I only turned it into an MP3, and I have this uncomfortable taste in my mouth. Where’s that Monte Cooke consent book when you need it?

With their band of hired muscle at their backs, Gormer sneaks into the Rust Brother Toll station to reconnoiter.Lets be honest here - combat does not make the most thrilling listening, even if at the table, its exciting for the players (and sometimes it isn't even exciting for them), but with Forbidden Lands the combat is, at least, short.Then comes divvying the loot - such as it is.We might have edited the action, maybe added some sound effects, but it has always been our philosophy to present the game as played, to reveal the pauses while we look up rules, and decisions we make, as players and GM, as well as characters. We don't want to be Critical Role - we are sharing our home games, inviting you as listener to sit with us round the table.Ravenland Tales is brought to you by Effekt, with [Fictionsuit](fictionsuit.org) and [RPG Gods](rpggods.org).

Our friends meet the sexless and hairless Elf, Mergolene, who recites a poem which (they claim) will allow access to the Fortress where the Ruby is currently kept. Reminded of their mission, the friends never-the-less decide to complete it only after they have taught the Rust Brothers of the Toll Boom a lesson. They recruit Vincent's band of soldiers.Ravenland Tales is brought to you by Effekt, with Fictionsuit and RPG Gods. Typeface is Duval Outline by Paul Lloyd.
