Episode Summary

Virelia burns behind them.

The Verdance waits ahead.

After escaping Ghorelitch Mesa, the party leads a frightened group of royal survivors into the cold, wet dark beyond the city walls. For most of them, the forest is a mystery. For Basagar and Severian, it is something stranger than safety.

It is home.

But home does not mean harmless. The Abrogate is hunting royal blood, the refugees are exhausted, and every fire they light risks being seen by someone, or something, in the trees.

The party needs food, shelter, and one quiet night.

The Verdance offers two out of three.
