The group manages to do some chores for Bavlorna without Pinky doing her chores dance.  Both Willow and Lyrup find something they really really want in Bavlorna’s cottage, but only one of them is successful.  The Breakfast Dudes also realize that time waits for no one, and things transpired while they were in Downfall’s jail.

TBD enters Bavlorna’s cottage again.  Solitude stays outside as everyone is still supposed to think he is dead after the trial by combat.  Pinky, Lyrup, and Willow bravely venture back into the cottage in the middle of the lake.  The group meets other residents of the cottage and get another chance to reach a deal with the hag Bavlorna.  But Lyrup is torn as she finds the location of their missing items. 

The group survives, but where they wake up is not the best of situations.  TBD gets a close and personal look at what “justice” looks like in Downfall after their disastrous first encounter with the hag Bavlorna. 

The Breakfast Dudes sneak into Bavlorna’s cottage which rests in the lake in the middle of Downfall.  They begin searching for the various lost things of members of the party and newly met individuals.  This is where the group learns the hard way that there are consequences for their actions.

After shopping for longer than they probably should have, the group travels through the town of Downfall to find out more about the revolution before confronting Bavlorna, the hag and ruler of these swamp lands.  Along the way they meet a depressed musician that they may help.  TBD also gets exposed to what a “revolution” looks like in Downfall and they are not impressed. 

After mourning the loss of the fire babies, the group explores more of Downfall.  They meet a new, but rather creepy ally surrounded by talking severed heads.  They meet the king!  But more importantly, they finally agree on a group name.

The to be named group navigates the swamp of Hither.  They encounter a number of the strange residents of this swamp land held in perpetual twilight.  On the way to Downfall, the home of the hag Bavlorna, the group addresses a critical issue by naming the adopted giant snail that they took from the harengons that tried to rob them.  This episode also has fire babies.

The group gives a master class in interrogation as they get information from the captured rabbit people.  They learn a lot about where to find the hag Bavlorna, and the negative impact she has had on the land since she took over.
