The Crown Companions meet with Garrandarr, the half-orc bookseller and leader of Stonecast's Lorekeeper, at his shop where he expresses his condolences to Jade. When she relays all that they've uncovered in their travels, the title Warlord catches him by surprise. He reveals he's just gotten word that a group of Warmakers and this Warlord have taken up residence at abandoned Farenthal Keep. The Crown Companions make a plan to go there, figure out what's going on, and strike down the Warlord. Horses and supplies are purchased and Chase gets the group deputized for Stonecast. The Crown Companions then settle in for one last night of comfort at The Snowfall Inn.

Gary has Diana-Morgan and Greg on to discuss the previous episode. They discuss not only what was revealed while in the Hall of Secrets, but who they think is behind the conspiracy. They also discuss Celeste's big accidental reveal of her lineage. Plus Diana-Morgan mentions maybe wanting to run a one-shot one time. The conversation is lively, but off the rails often. In other words, a pretty good episode.
