Romancing the Dungeon

Their journey through the mountains has reunited AJ, Nate/Ivan and Hephaesta with siblings Ike and Jess. The duo inform the gang of their captors and the abandoned fortress dug into the mountains, 'The Hollow Bastion'. Here they'll find their friends and reunite with Fia - there's just an army of urchins, rogue cabaret performers and possibly members of the Tarot to deal with!

Easy right?

Locked inside the abandoned fortress known as 'The Hollow Bastion', Fia has found herself a player in a terrible game of life and death. Now she comes face to face with her mother, Una, once more, the realisation that the game isn't over and the reality of the choices she has yet to make start to sink in. An offer from 'The Raven Queen', might be her way out but at what cost?

CW: this episode revolves around themes of loss/abandonment, death, emotional manipulation, and gaslighting.

While the gang continue on their journey through the Dragon's Back mountains, we are going back the timeline but not too far... 

Far below the peaks, Fia awakens battered, bloodied, but alive within the ruins of a long-forgotten military fortress. Within its walls she encounters familiar faces, allies and enemies alike. But this reunion is no coincidence. Someone has brought them here for a reason.

And before the night is over, they're all going to be forced to play a very cruel game...

They have supplies! They have information! They even have an ancient holy relic! It's time for AJ, Nate/Ivan and Hephaesta to gallop out of Boudoir and resume the chase for Fia... hang on... just getting a call here... 'Has Nate/Ivan rang Hedona and told her the earth shattering news yet?'... oh Gods this is going to get messy!

AJ is back inside his own head trying to track down the girl he loves, but his subconscious didn't get the memo about keeping things chill. After last time's dark turn, you'd think he'd take a break, but nope! Now he's.... Lost in his mind? AJ, we know That's that nightmare espresso!

Progress! Nate and Ivan are finally on the case and there's a local temple and they might have answers or at least access to the Gods who have them! Unfortunately, the Temple of Broseph has a few entry requirements. Complete the membership form in triplicate. Pay a year's membership up front. Sign over your immortal soul(s). Standard stuff.

No pain. No gain. No refunds.

The gang are a step closer to finding Fia... to figuring things out... to understanding. Who are we kidding?! They're lost! AJ's unconscious AGAIN! Hephaesta seeks out supplies for the journey ahead but finds herself caught between a croque monsieur and a hard anvil as she explores the village of Boudoir.

They've cleared the mines, they've slain thie pursuers and the sleepy of village is just over the next hill. Nate/Ivan, Hephaesta and AJ are hopefully one step closer to finding Fia; hey... why's that goat looking at you kinda funny? Did it? Did it just wink at you?

AJ is lost in dreamland, but the nightmare is only just beginning. Back in the waking world, the gang try to turn the abandoned mine tunnels into a handy little shortcut. All they need to do is keep their heads down, stay quiet, and avoid drawing unwanted attention...

So, naturally, that goes terribly.

With AJ beyond reach, Nate and Hephaesta in the crosshairs, and “alive” suddenly sounding more like a suggestion than a requirement, the quiet route is about to become anything but...

CW: Emotional abuse, manipulation/coercion, and a non-graphic childbirth scene involving brief newborn distress.

We return to the Dragon’s Back Mountains as the gang continue their search for Fia. The expedition is taking its toll and nerves are wearing thin. They take shelter in the abandoned tunnels of an old mine, but even when the others stop to rest, AJ keeps looking in the Dream Realm.

A lesson will be learned: hope can lead you somewhere dangerous, and dreams can quickly become nightmares...
