The Deck of Some Stuff: a prototype to the Deck of Many Things? Or is it more of an “Apprentice’s First” type situation? Whatever the source, it doesn’t stop the Idiots (aka Xelas and Rokain) from drawing handfuls of cards. The Wise (aka Ygin and Kaxus), on the other hand, only take a few. Yet when Fortune favors the Bold, the results, whether good, bad, or maybe even a little silly, might not be as anticipated.

Without the immediate threat of the Ichor snarling at their backs the heroes have time to enjoy their various activities, recruit help from one another, and have some meaningful conversations. Though Ygin and Kaxus might find themselves getting closer, Xelas accidentally gives Rokain way too much food for thought. And, at the end of a long day, a friendly face makes a nighttime appearance.

At last there’s time for the heroes to enjoy a well-deserved break before they prepare for the next move against the Ichor. Thiel’s enjoyable company also brings lots of fun stories and a few, potentially unwanted, revelations for some. Rokain might be working off a debt to Thiel but it’s Ygin who’s really tied up on the ship.

The unexpected visitor has brought an equally unexpected opportunity…for shopping! Aboard the good ship Magpie, a treasure trove of interesting items waits to be explored and possibly purchased. Kaxus even nets a nice discount for Ygin, Rokain and Xelas too. But making a profit isn’t the only thing the visitor has his eyes on.

Now safe and sound again in the bunker, it’s not quite the relaxing breather the heroes had been hoping for. There’s foreboding dreams, wild new abilities, concerning glitches, an unexpected visitor, and Kaxus actually wants to go outside!? The mystery deepens when Rokain’s research unearths an ancient diary with a strange name written inside. A name which even Eko doesn’t recognize and which holds unsettling possibilities.

Whether it’s pulling Remaria back from the brink or pulling Xelas out of the fight, desperate times mean desperate measures for Ygin and Rokain. Luckily, this time, Ygin’s learned a thing or two about saving someone from Ichor. On the downside, Remaria’s memory has only marginally improved and Tilly knows how to cover her tracks, and her evidence, all too well.

Precious seconds are ticking away rapidly and Rokain, Ygin and Xelas must think quickly. Optimism says they can surely both stop Tilly and save Remaria, and Experience hasn’t yet taught them there’s advantages in numbers which means it’s time to split the party. Ygin needs to hurry though Remaria’s house is strangely conveniently close; Rokain discovers Xelas doesn’t understand the concept of a chain of command; Tilly finds it easy to smack these ‘heroes’ around; and as for Remaria, time is shortest for her of them all.

You know what the storybooks never mention legendary heroes having to do? Attending an autopsy, which is something Xelas, Rokain and Ygin could’ve quite happily continued their lives without. But being sick has its benefits, even if Xelas has to fake it, and that’s the chance to poke around Tilly’s office. Was it truly a ploy to gain the coroner’s job or does Tilly have something else up her devious sleeve? The heroes have a choice they must make and the clock is ticking against them.

After a frustratingly uninformative night, split paths and party members reconvene at the totally legit, absolutely not a front, and shockingly rat-free Inn (complimentary coffee included; petting the cat not guaranteed). And the reunion comes with gifts: cool, sparkly magic items courtesy of Kaxus. Together again, and with Rokain playing up the family name, it’s back to what’s left of the casino for a chat with the deputy constable and an interesting discovery.

The trail to finding the culprit behind the attack at the casino has branched quickly. From Kayleigh’s mother, who’s clouded memory is a suspicious sign, to a very charming tiefling who runs a snorkeling business, and even to the potential next constable to-be, it’s quite the web of suspects the heroes must unravel. Unbeknownst to Ygin and Xelas, Rokain has another pressing matter on his mind too. As the web grows, each must find a path to follow.
