Why is the dryad, Dindelia, with her guerilla-style battle tactics, bent on killing you? What do you say to your paladin after another battle has left two of you barely able to stand, your party's magic almost gone, and he heals only himself? Your companion has no arrows, so how do you ask if you can use their super-fly longbow? Do you push if they say no? Is there a secret means to cross a 30-foot trench that blocks your path and is filled with writhing, blood-hungry vines? Do you wanna know more?

What would you offer to a ravenfolk, who is looking to trade a silk rug from the land of the humans? Who are these people from a tribe called the Ashen Bats, and why do the centaurs think Thorn is one of them? What tactics make the most sense when you encounter a maniacal dryad bent on killing you?

Tis an odd bit of adventuring to observe your herbalist using a rapier to harvest black tar from a flower. Odder still is to figure out how to trek the forest tunnel with a paralysed 450lb tortle. Is it then wise to use your incapacitated companion as cover when set upon by strange creatures? What colour is your prone, limb-retracted-tortle when you kick it towards your enemy? What are the limits of decorum when scavenging from a slain foe? Do you wanna know more?

After scouting ahead Thorn and Norbit return to camp, just as Clicker is showing Volun her discovery of a strange sigil. The companions begin to find this sigil, and others about the glade, some they can explain, others they can not. Wisdom decides their course and they camp for the night. On the morrow they strike out and begin their trek into this flora-tunnel. What strange things will they happen upon? What is this business about Dragon Turtles? And who will stick their finger where they should not? Do you wanna know more?

Clicker strips down to dry out her gear after having soaked herself earlier, and perhaps just a little, to bask naked in the afternoon sunlight that pierces the forest canopy. Volun busies himself in constructing a shelter, but also, once more tries his hand at catching dinner in the glade’s pond. Thorn and Norbit anxiously venture into the strange flora-tunnel to explore what lay ahead. Having escaped slavery, the world feels peaceful, rich and full of life ... nothing could go wrong.

Soul gazing fish fill your bellies, and pond water refreshes your thirst. Now it’s time to figure out what to do next. Your eyes settle on the lamppost in the centre of the pond, what’s in that hanging gibbet? Beside the pond is a tent covered in vegetation; it's full of gear, you have no gear, clearly this must have been left for you ... it does tick all the checkboxes ... but who left it? And why is Norbit’s experience in the pond so completely different from his companions? Do you wanna know more?

As the bright light clears, the ringing in your ears subsides, you find yourself in a forest glade. Where are you? Does it matter? You are free and the slavers are behind, you’ve made good on your escape! What’s the next step? Water and food! You must slake your immense thirst and fill the hole that gnaws at your bellies. The glade is enclosed by a mesh of trees that form a canopy overhead. On one side of the glade is an exit into the forest, on the other side is a pond with a lamppost in its centre, and hanging from that lamppost is a tiny gibbet. Do you wanna know more?

Only a moment ago Clicker had unlocked the massive reinforced stone door. On the other side of that door is a shimmering watery surface. What holds the water back, prevents it from spilling into the corridor and washing you away? Before you can answer this question Clicker drops her backpack and dives into that surface!

Once again the four companions find themselves back in the Under Barrows and dodging their would-be slavers. There is only one more direction they have not explored, what hides down that path? Do they once more attempt fate and leap across the chasm? Or is the smarter play to scale down the cliff face and put them on the same level as their captors? How will they react when the nature of one of their companions is revealed? What causes Thorn to nearly trip over himself in excitement for the first time in months? Do you wanna know more?

Cries of pain, cries of distress, a child in need of parents ... clearly the path forward is ended and the companions must escort the child home! Or will they? Norbit is wounded, the grey frog with claws dealt serious blows with its greatsword. Clicker is frustrated at the vile creature’s escape, but Thorn is circumspect of the matter and Volun can’t seem to force himself back to sleep. A blazing, radiant meteor passes overhead and the dream walkers question their decision and then the world shivers! Do you wanna know more?

What course of action should you take when your friend is smited by a very large, ugly-looking, grey frog with claws?

Who is the first that breaks the gargantuan teddy bear illusion and sees the female satyr within? Thorn and Norbit slow their attack as the satyr begins to speak with them, offering to return them to the Material Plane, but what insight causes Clicker to strengthen her attack?

Norbit is commanded to sit down and shut up by the Nightmare King! How is that possible? No spell was cast? Having received her boon, Clicker is morose and distraught, so what are the words from Thorn that cause her to storm out of the Guardian Tree named Sevosi?

Now that the ugly tooth fairies have been dealt with, it’s time to free the trapped creature.

The four slaves continue their sojourn deeper into the Forbidden Forest, their goal held firm in their minds; to succeed here would spell success for their internment in the material plane. Clicker guides her companions, keeping them silent as they move amongst the undergrowth ... that is until a flurry of buzzing noises brings their attention to ... Norbit! What!?
