With most of their companions slaughtered or otherwise busy, The Chosen of Versi enter the descendevator to venture deeper into the ancient Mithral Mines to face their most dangerous challenge yet. A vicious contraption leaves them utterly harrowed and unprepared for a duel that nearly ensures Thylea’s demise. After coming to blows with death, the party meets a few new allies to replace those lost already on their quest to relight the forge, but an unexpected twist leaves them in a dangerous predicament…
Ariel meets an important NPC.
Eto loses one of his few articles of clothing.
Nausicaa opens a door.
Nehmet sympathizes with fire.
Ylva gets some Hog Points.
One beast defeated, another adopted and a new stranger rescued from imprisonment, but will The Chosen of Versi be able to overcome their unsuspected surprise? Perhaps with the help of another unlikely ally, the heroes will survive and be able to complete their first of three great labors! But what kind of attention is drawn by actions of this magnitude? And more importantly: what happened to their oldest friend?
Can Ariel party with the best of them?
How many troglodytes can Eto dodge in six seconds?
How far will Nausicaa go for treasure?
Should Nehmet have known how to deactivate the trap?
Does Ylva know how to care for a teenager?
Find out next time! Until then, remember to ward off the jealous gaze of the Twin Titans and to revere the blessed Five. May The Chosen of Versi succeed in their quest, else all of Thylea will be lost...

The 500 year Oath of Peace is coming to an end and the Titans’ jealous rage has only ripened over time. Five heroes have been summoned by the Oracle, who prophesied that they are the only hope of refuge from the death of the gods, the destruction of the sacred tree, and the total annihilation of all mortal races. Join our heroes (and their players):
Ariel (Venus), a naively entitled nymph with a pension for persuasion
Eto (Billy), a hard-ass Aresian soldier who believes that discipline and pride are cardinal virtues
Nausicaa (Violet), a strangely social medusa who can kill a yak from 200 yards away with her trusty bow
Nehmet (Sojak), a man out of time, slowly clearing a 500 year fog from his mind as he composes the greatest epic poem Thylea will ever know
Ylva (Jacob), a stranger in a strange land whose bone-and-hide armor is almost as threatening as her fiery magics
as they are guided through the world of Thylea by their Game Master (Sam). Many dangers exist in this land, especially for those so bold as to stand in defiance of the titans, but if The Chosen of Versi fail in their quest, all of Thylea will be lost.
