In our 25th session, our Not-Quite-Heroes find themselves investigating a fungal issue in rural Glagus. As they try to investigate, the party get into a moral dispute in a tavern that not only opens wounds between Emilia and Cecily, but begins to make the villagers opinions of the party turn sour. Pogo and Cecily try to discover what could be the root of the mysterious illness that ravaged the village before the party arrived while Emilia and Sartheleon embark on their own quest which forces the two to question their honesty between one another, and for them to finally start facing the truth behind their complicated feelings. Can our misguided adventurers in training get past their own stubbornness to work together and save the village? Or, are they adding to the suffering the poor townsfolk have already endured?Like us a little bit?
