Show Notes
Liam joins the party for dinner and Rou updates him on all of the group’s adventures in Baukora, including the loss of Eight. He shares their discovery of the Seven Swords but avoids details on Trix’s true identity. The group then reveals the reason for their visit: answers to an alchemical problem, information on blood oaths and how they might free the Seven Swords from the jeweled cages. Liam agrees to help, but admits it will take some time.
During the conversation, something Elaith says about their predicament gives Liam pause. He asks Rou and Trix to leave him alone with Elaith for a few moments, though Trix tries their best to listen in from the hallway. As the pair whisper in the dark dining room, Liam discovers why Elaith wishes to keep their task a secret and in return they notice something odd on his breath.
Before going to bed, Rou sneaks off into Liam’s gardens and sets Eight’s pack of knick-knacks under a large willow tree. As he takes a moment to reflect on his lost companion, a hedgehog comes by and seems to offer to guard what remains of Eight.
