It's about to get real gritty. While hunting for answers linked to Mavros' ultimate prophecy, the team faces down against what might be their toughest battle yet - with no guarantees that anyone survives... will Hecatae learn the true origins of their past? Will Bilwop realise what Happy is really up to? Will Alphage's demise mean a break in the case? Luckily, our Hierophant is here to read us a few bedtime stories to put all our minds at ease...

The revelations are coming thick and fast now. As the team wrestles with the information they found in the lowers, more questions are arising - what exactly was Dr Harold Jennings doing for Mathers?

We leave the confines of the Hotel Amarant behind, heading off in search of a nightclub-cum-jazz-lounge, whose patrons may be able to help answer the mounting questions this crew has. As relative unknowns, they believe they have the element of surprise... but plans have a tendency of going awry in Mavros, leaving one of the party facing a flowery end, and at least one other staring down the barrel of their own sanity...

The Hotel Amarant is of of the most ancient and magical hotels in Mavros. And what is a hotel with a halfling concierge with a great handlebar moustache? We begin this episode following in the footsteps of one Nelson Ganymede, who's dealing with the regular duties of hotel management: scheduling, customer service, vanquishing elder gods tainting the staff.

Jeremy, Candace The Magnificent and Navaar Jackson are back this week to talk about the news of the Assassin's Creed: Shadows release. Can you guess why? Yep, a lot of people seem very upset that one of the main protagonists - Yasuke - is a black man, in a game set in feudal Japan. Would we have this same backlash if it was a white guy?

Disclaimer - The Obojima: Tales from the Tall Grass at Momocon 2024 was cancelled on May 20th. Hoo boy... May 2024 was Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, and one actual play at Momocon... fumbled. Hard. The Obojima: Tales From the Tall Grass was advertised as a 'Studio Ghibli Inspired' live actual play that would feature at the event, which involved no asian and/or Japanese players. So, Jeremy, Navaar Jackson and Candace The Magnificent take a dive into how the organisers responded to the torrent of criticism (badly), why they fell on the wrong side of the appropriation/appreciation divide, and how to respectfully produce an Actual Play with a fantasy world built with real-world cultural significance.

If 'YouTube Video Essays', 'TTRPG Knowledge' and 'Legal Expertise' was a Venn Diagram, this week's guest LegalKimchi would be at the centre!

Today, Liv and Jeremy chat with Alex about TTRPG content creation, speaking on topics that you have the background of research and experience to present, and how D&D gets religion so damn wrong.
