Still, you hope to share it in some way with your companion.How might you, without being didactic or overbearing, help your companion access something like the revelation you just experienced?Jay Card #1 - Cosy - You are a world-famous Belgian detective, or perhaps an amateur sleuth from a small New England town, and you have good reason to believe that your companion was involved with a terrible crime. Gather evidence on your companion’s involvement, but donot, under any circumstances, allow them to catch on that they are being investigatedMark Card #2 - Palimpsect - You have a secret identity—asuperhero, an anonymous hacker, a whistleblower, or possibly a werewolf. Your companion, who you believed to be unaware of this secret identity, has recently said or done something that leads you to wonder if they know.Jay Card #2 - Foment - You are a member of a secret society, assigned with the task of determining whether your companion—whose participation in this secret society would be of great benefit—would be interested in joining.Mark Card #3 - Geranium - Your companion is alive, but youare not. You are a specter, ghost, or echo that is haunting them. This whole thing is probably related to something that your companion has done. It doesn’t have to be a terrible crime—though it might be. What unfinished business is leftbetween you, and how will you push them to resolve it?Jay Card #3 - Hinge - While you hold this card, you mayonly answer any question with another question. Try not to be too obvious about it.Mark Card #4 - Albatross - This fishing trip isn’t happeningright now; it’s a memory from long ago that you are re-living in your mind. Maybe your companion isn’t a major part of your life anymore, or your relationship isn’t the same. Whatever happens next, it’s exactly how you remember it happeningin your memory, and you can’t do anything to change it.Jay Card #4 - Pellucid - While you hold this card, answereverything your companion asks truthfully for yourself as the player, not the character—however, you are under no requirement to reveal that your answers are truthful orout-of-character.

With strong magic in the air in the Open Vale. The arcanist begins her ritual to charge the keystone. But all is not right in the Sablewood, and such high magical energies can attract all sorts of undue attention. Will our heroes be able to complete the ritual, and survive unscarred?

Our trio of adventurers make it to the town of Hush, where the gods they worship are long and forgotten, and the group learn that they fit in here pretty well all things considered. They'll need to find the Whitefire Arcanist to deliver their cargo, but I'm sure it's not that easy, right?Cast:Mark (Exxorian) - Host/GMTolben – Lazare (Infernis-Giant Seraph) - Check them out on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!Vicky – Titanya (Emberkin Assassin)Steve – Radahn (Faun Warlock) – Check out his ⁠Youtube Channel⁠ hereInterested in Daggerheart?

Over the last few episodes we've done a lot of horror and high stakes. So we're trying something different (with the same high stakes!) We're going to be playing through and trying to build our own RomCom - with two of us playing leads and a third playing an evil villain forcing us to try to get together. Will we survive? Will we explode? Will someone get married on my big day?

Our legal team would like to remind you that making false claims about being dragged into, and injured in mysterious hell portals is a false allegation that can lead to immediate dismissal from the workforce. We also feel obligated to mention that also if there was some kind of mysterious portal - it would also technically take you offsite and so Cornwall is not responsible for any injuries that would or would not occur in that space. Please refrain from sharing anything you have discussed today with your colleagues when you do return to work as well - wouldn't want to harm morale or start any false rumours now would we?
