With the Queen of Knives' blessing, the crew calls on Malifax DuVex, retired Blackstaff instructor, professional provocateur, and owner of a puppy assembled from several other puppies. Mal has exactly one way into the tower, and it costs one evening of catering.

So: white uniforms, illusory decorations, aboleth soup, and a guest list of people who want to murder or rob each other. Somewhere in the room is a young mage with an arcane focus the crew needs and no interest whatsoever in being charmed.

The mission is simple: Steal the crystal. Return the crystal. Try not to die over dessert.

Then there were three. Today, we say goodbye to a member of the Skeleton Crew. 

Afterwards, it's time for another round of downtime activities: Oz carouses and makes a new enemy, Four tries to be good but struggles, and Mal'kreth makes his debut as a pit fighter. Next, the crew needs access to Blackstaff Tower. In exchange for helping, the Queen of Knives tasks them with demolishing a rival gang's headquarters. Then, things start to get strange.

Stranded in Skullport and scrounging for passage back to Waterdeep, the party takes a detour into petty larceny—lifting a locked chest from a dockside tavern that doubles as a front for a local assassins' guild. Loot in hand, they drop in on an underground auction where the final shipment of The Witness's teardrop weapons goes under the hammer, won by a mysterious buyer they haven't seen before. By dawn, they're back in Waterdeep, at the Lighthouse, ready to regroup.

In the aftermath of the Witness's death, the party picks over her sanctum for clues and a few choice pieces of loot, then steps back into the Infinite Library—this time ten years in the past. This one's a lore-heavy episode: every answer the crew pries loose reveals more questions. And the longer they linger in the stacks, the more of themselves they seem to leave behind.

About 20 minutes into this episode, something happens at the table that leaves The Skeleton Crew speechless—and by now you know that's pretty rare.

The Skeleton Crew is reunited just in time for another fresh hell. Mal'kreth and Oz duel another gith prisoner for the key they need to move forward, while Four Stone finally escapes their trial chamber. Once the gang reunites, they reach the armory—where The Witness finally stops watching from the shadows and addresses them directly. But before they can reach her, the gloves come off one more time: with their gear finally back in hand, the party kicks off a chaotic, full-contact brawl against the dungeon’s last remaining acolytes—one final fight on their way to the boss, assuming they survive it.

It feels like they're close to reaching the Armory—but what waits for them there?
