Avren asks our Heroes to travel to another plane to help a city under attack by mysterious creatures. He’s purposefully vague on details, only that it’s a mess uniquely qualified for the Heroes to clean up, before handing over some wine and teleporting them to the realm of Theros. There they discover the city was created many years ago by an army of Shadowfell creatures, the same ones who once helped the Heroes when they fought to save the world of Dalenheim from an army of undead. Somehow they ended up in Theros, and built the city of Steelmarrow and a gargantuan metal statue in the likeness of Briv to honor their missing commander. Eventually the Shadowfell creatures left through a portal, abandoning the city to be claimed by the current mortal residents. They recognize Briv as the same commander and hand over the rule of the city to him as soon as they arrive, which the paladin is more than happy to accept and begin rule immediately.
While celebrations and praise of Briv continue, the Heroes learn what they can about the attacks on the city. They have been taking place at sunset near the water's edge, and there has been enough of a pattern to predict where the next might happen. Setting up at the left foot of the massive statue, soon they are attacked by a strange chimera that crawls out of the water on spider legs with four heads; a unicorn, a cockatrice, a bull, and a shark. While dangerous the beast is quickly dispatched, however as soon as it is dead the statue they have fought under seams to come to life as it also draws its gigantic blade!
Quotes from this episode:
“Why is he always on the roof?” “Because you keep trying to pee and poop everywhere except the loo.” -Briv and Orkira
“Do you have mount envy right now?” - Penelope
“Did you just say ‘The Briv’?”
“It must be the effect of this town.” -Keen and Briv
“Something is really really wrong here! I am sorry, I have deceived thee, but I have been putting on an act! Obviously no one likes me enough to make a big giant statue! And this is all incredibly incredibly boned! And we’re probably all going to die! And so I’m just simply trying to figure out what in the Nine Hells is actually happening! And we need to be prepared for anything!” - Briv
We're going to be moving away from doing full recaps of our liveplay streams, focusing more on promoting the VoDs and clips. But I know it can be valuable to get a quick recap before a new episode. So along with Todd's regular opening show recap, I'm going to start posting Summaries, including quotes and links to clips, here on the forums for our shows. This will also give people an easier place to comment and ask questions about the show!
