Bk. 04 Ch. 22 The trapped hallway may not be much of a concern, but there is plenty of worry to go around. Finnigan is under the floor with Cerul, trying to save an ally from the jaws of a dragon. Even if Sloan's life can be saved, there are other forces at work within The Contract House. Lynn Jarvis is close, but he is unlikely to give up without a good reason.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 21 Pressing deeper into The Contract House, it was decided that the direct route was the best way forward. Rather than chasing an illusion, the party takes the path through the throne room to the counting room. Unfortunately, the very first door along the way is trapped. The hallway beyond is bathed in anti-magic fields and protected by a group of guards who have given them the choice to turn back or be fired upon. But the threat is only the beginning.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 20 With the forces at the gate no longer a concern, it's time to dive into The Contract House itself. The gate remains shut, and unknown dangers could await on the other side. It's far from an insurmountable obstacle, but caution should be advised. The spoils of the first fight could be of value so long as they are used wisely. There's no telling what awaits inside.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 19 Lynn Jarvis has made his offer of conditional peace, but with so many strings attached it is hard to imagine anyone will take it. His gathered forces protect the gate into The Contract House and stand ready to fight back the crowd. The farmers and the athletes have joined with the rebellion forces while street youths cause distractions elsewhere in the city. Even with all of the help, a victory here is far from assured.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 18 As a new day breaks in Caravel, the time to move on The Contract House draws ever nearer. Lynn Jarvis cannot be allowed to prepare too much. New alliances have been forged to combat his cruel policies. Even if they prove only to be temporary, they could mean the difference between victory and defeat. With planning, determination, and a little bit of luck, Caravel may know peace once more.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 17 Taking out Lynn Jarvis and negating the influence The Silver Purse has in Caravel, the party seeks assistance around the city. Darvin and Arannis focus on getting support from the Sporting Association, whose athletes and fighters could provide invaluable physical assistance. Meanwhile, Finnigan seeks out help from a hawk in the streets of Caravel. Every ally counts in the coming fight against Lynn Jarvis' forces.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 16 Rather than take on The Contract House by themselves, the party seeks out support in and around Caravel. There are plenty of avenues for additional support, but time is of the essence. Lynn Jarvis will certainly put efforts in motion after the first assault. In order to save time, decisions need to be made. Some support may need to be sacrificed, or perhaps it's time to entrust some tasks to the rest of the party.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 15 The guards of The Contract House turned out to be unexpectedly well-trained, leaving our party in a bit of a bind: they can press on and maintain some element of surprise, or they can retreat to solidify their forces. Both options have their risks and rewards, but a decision must be made before more forces arrive. The future of Caravel, and the lives of its citizens, lies in the balance. The city faces redemption, but the people must be willing to fight for it.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 14 In the Contract House of Caravel, Lynn Jarvis made no secret of his power and control within the city. He is doing what he believes is necessary. Darvin, Arannis, and Finnigan have decided that delaying would give him too much time to prepare. Seeking an alternative means to Lynn, they begin a circuitous route through the stronghold. However, the resistance they find may be giving them second thoughts.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 13 The Silver Purse could not answer questions about the recent economic turn here in Caravel, but they were able to point the way to Lynn Jarvis. The local merchant guild leader has taken up residence in The Contract House after the incident in Vermillion. Without elven leadership, the city needed a steadying hand. The progression from guiding to dictating was short for Lynn and he seems comfortable in his new role. Perhaps all he needs is a little divine intervention....   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 12 After a scrape in the Church of Rebellion, it's time to get a better idea of how Caravel changed so drastically in such a short amount of time. Signs point to The Silver Purse as the cause, but why would the merchant guild do such a thing? And how could they? The answers won't be found in the church, but there are plenty of places to start asking questions.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 11 In the city of Caravel, a Church of Rebellion has taken root to spread the teachings of the new god. However, they are hesitant to accept Arannis as the god that he is. Carmella Hodges demands proof and she's not about to make it easy. When the situation takes a turn for the worse, it may take more than words to convince her and the rest of the church.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 10 The road south will bring many opportunities for new adventures, but we must first pass through some old memories. Leaving The Duke's Lament behind, the party finds themselves approaching the city of Caravel. The home of The Stained Court and obscene prices isn't quite what it used to be. Even without entering the city, some dire changes are quite obvious. But with so much to do, how deeply involved can The Bard's Rebellion get?   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 09 A new day dawns in The Duke's Lament, and there is much to do. Before we can hit the head and continue the journey south, Duke Everheart needs assistance. The Withering has been affecting him so much and for so long that the tavern has fallen into deep disrepair. Healing the Duke comes first, but that is only the beginning.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Arannis and Darvin have made some progress in their divine lessons, but it is only the beginning. They both have a long way to go if they want to reach their potential. Duke Everheart patiently waits through the night, anticipating freedom from The Withering. He has been suffering for a long time and one more night won't hurt him. But when morning comes, everyone is in for a surprise.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.com/invite/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 07 After removing all of the lingering effects of The Withering from Cerul, it would seem that Rystos' lessons may be useful after all. Arannis and Darvin still have a long way to go, but it's a start. Returning to The Duke's Lament, the party has some time to unwind before enjoying a peaceful night. Their new traveling companions want to show off as well, but not everything can go as planned.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.gg/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 06 Finnigan and Rystos may have burst onto the scene in wildly different manners, but perhaps they can learn to work together. After all, both have much to reveal. As the party seeks rest and refreshments in The Duke's Lament, they must also face some of their own shortcomings. Arannis' divine magic is proving difficult to control, so maybe what the party really needs is a teacher.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.gg/yEbuAVU Baby Bestiary: twitter.com/metalweavegames

Bk. 04 Ch. 05 Dangerous plant creatures burst through the ground to assault the party as they travel to a well-known roadside tavern: The Duke's Lament. Terrifying creatures bloom from enormous stalks, but it's an eerie laughter from below the ground that is the most disturbing. As the battle rages on, young Mahogany returns with a new allies in the form of a tiefling and drake team whose true goals are yet to be revealed.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.gg/yEbuAVU

Bk. 04 Ch. 04 Striking out from the capital, the party heads south towards Earl and La Berra. There is a lot of ground to cover, and the party has undergone some changes. Though they have said goodbye to their Denouement allies, they have gained several faces both new and old. Samudio, happy to be on the road again, is already angling to make a quick stop to enjoy some pleasures of the roadside. The road, however, can often be a path to new troubles.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.gg/yEbuAVU

Bk. 04 Ch. 03 The Church of Rebellion has successfully endorsed the power grab of the giants, lead by Elder Gar'Shen. On top of that, they seem to have attracted the attention of several individuals. As the founders of the church return from the Holy Hall of Tren'Ga, they are faced with a new group with their own desires. But it is the plans of older compatriots that will turn them on a new path.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord: discord.gg/yEbuAVU
