The Misfortunates rose like a phoenix from the catacombs filled with man-sized butcher bugs, and then descended almost immediately beneath the earth once again. What terrors awaited them in the derelict mine, rife with the spores that begat the plague of Guests?
Butler has an eye-opening experience, Hector takes a tumble, Norric shows a different side to her personality.
The Misfortunates survived their deadly encounter with Metzger, the invincible right hand of the Castellan, and plunged from the proverbial frying pan into a cavernous hive crawling with dozens upon dozens of man-sized butcher bugs.
Jakob dances in the pale moonlight, Norric blends in, Hector blows himself up, Carina picks up her crown, Butler plays tug of war with his brain.
The Misfortunates have fallen victim to a pit trap, falling farther from the captured Eve as Norman Alastor performs a profane ritual higher up in his castle.
Worse still, not content with dropping them down a pit; he's sent his right hand to dispose of them. The invincible Metzger now stalks them down a tunnel that may become their tomb...
Butler makes a run for it. Hector fires up. Norric unleashes her inner demons.
The Misfortunates welcome a pair of new faces, while an old friend cools in the grave.
Butler hangs on for dear life. Loren tests his will. Hector stops the clock. Jakob opens an Omenpath.
Tonight, on a very special episode of O, Cruel World...
Koot plants a tree. Loren exterminates some bugs. Butler gets touched by an angel. Anna has a date with destiny.
The Misfortunates have received a boon: two of their number have been cured of the atrocious Affliction. However, for Mathias it has meant losing his humanity and for Esperanza it meant an unwelcome return to it. Adjustment to this new paradigm will have to wait, however. More puzzles and deadly traps await our party.
Anna turns into a bat. Carina takes a look, in a book. Butler plays it safe. Loren doesn't.
The Misfortunates have found Mathias! And Desmund Dorsal, in the flesh (so to speak.)
Can they survive five minutes in a small room with him? Or will this be a repeat of their last encounter, one that almost ended in the death of all involved...
Anna refuses the call, Butler is left holding the bag, Norric takes a dive, Koot bugs out, and Carina catches on fire.
The Misfortunates have had a brush with death, and The Maid (Butler's onetime confidant). What could she be here for? Something tells the party she's not here to clean house.
Butler sets the table for a dinner party. Loren digs in. Norric appreciates some art. Anna learns a valuable lesson about marksmanship safety.
The Misfortunates have lost Mathias to a scooby doo wall trap, and must delve into the sewer dungeons beneath castle shadowgrange to contend with its miserable insects.
Butler plays the waltz, Norric moves like water, Anna finds some new neck apparel.
