The party receives their final piece of advice from the Second Assistant Librarian and prepares a new strategy. Meanwhile, in the rest of the world, things are looking dark, with fires, floods, freezes, and more threatening civilizations across the globe. If our adventurers can't defeat the Beast this time, there may not be much left to save. What terrible news awaits the party from around the word? What final words of wisdom does the Second Assistant Librarian have for the crew? And will the party be able to implement their strategies well enough to make a difference?

After a less-than-stellar first encounter with the Beast, the party returns to their base camp to recover and receive news. Some of it is excellent information, vital to their future fights against the Beast. And some is tragic, shaking our adventurers to their cores. But there's no rest for the weary (or is it wicked...), and Bria, Byzdera, Flik, and Kit need to take another shot at the Beast. Will the information they receive be enough to turn the tide of battle? Or will they be distracted by the incredible losses across the rest of the world? And are they going to encounter more poop?

The party finally faces off with the Beast. They've spent over a year planning, researching, and making sure that they came into this fight as prepared as possible. But now that it's here, our adventurers will finally find out if all of that was enough. What will they learn from this, their first encounter with the Beast? Will their preparations make it an easy fight? Or are they in for much more of a challenge than they could have ever anticipated?

The party explores the Heart of the World, searching for the center of the island and in it, the Central Arcanium and the Beast. Despite aerial surveillance, helpful plants, and some scatological clues, it isn't an easy task. Will our adventurers find what they're looking for? What else will they encounter along the way? And which one of them is going to sneak up on poop, inspiring the episode title?

After last week's episode, Kit, Flik, and Bria all succeeded at siphoning elemental energy from their assigned Nodes, but at what cost? Only Byzdera remains, and she is unconscious on the floor of her Node chamber. What happens now? Was our adventurers' sacrifices enough to stop the Beast? Or does Byzdera have a big and lonely job ahead of her?

We see our adventurers for the first time this season as they each attempt to deactivate a different Node. Succeeding means weakening some of the Beast's defenses, but even getting to the Nodes is going to be a challenge. What obstacles will the party face in their journeys to the Nodes? Will they all manage to siphon off an elemental defense? And even if they do, is attempting to siphon magic from a Node safe?
