Bryan, Jay, Sean and Thayne take a wistful look back at a campaign full of courage, comedy and carnage. Of glory, giggles and guts. Of fame, farce and fury. Of brilliance, buffoonery and bloodshed. Of heart, humor and hostility. You get the idea.

The emperor is back, baby! But how back is he, really? There’s a weird, dark energy in the room and it’s making things a bit murky. Shabba camps out. Azlo strikes up the band. Tokas goes airborne.

Somehow, the Emperor returned. Apparently… or, apparitionally. Shabba risks all for the right opportunity. Tokas strikes a decisive green slash. Azlo theorizes on the path to victory.

The calling is nearly complete, and there appears to be little our heroes can do to stop it. Tokas acts cinematographully. Life gives Shabba mustard, so he makes a hotdog. Azlo sleeps with open eyes.

Our heroes have encountered a door which just may be the door to end all doors. Shabba holds a team meeting. Azlo reflects. Tokas spends a precious resource.

The zombies are oozing, and somehow familiar to our heroes. Shabba looses light. Azlo keeps the captain fighting. Tokas almost casts a new spell.

Having dispatched their foes, our heroes scour the keep in search of its secrets. Azlo plays a private show. Shabba has a near-death Stripey. Tokas waxes eloquent on the intricacies of somnolence.

Our heroes engage with the black-clad cultists occupying the keep, desperate to end the fight without alerting the outside world to their presence. Azlo inspires from the shadows. Tokas slays. Shabba sweeps up.

Our heroes make an evening raid on the cultists’ fort in a clandestine attempt to infiltrate their inner sanctum. Azlo has scaling trouble. Tokas enters without breaking. Shabba discovers dinner.
