Episode 45: Powderkeg

The party quickly realizes that while the Lion’s Den is safe from the ilithids, it is still far from safe. After the mind flayers took over the city, a fledgling resistance broke out, but tensions run hot between Isak and Sapphire, the leaders of the two most prominent gangs that compose the resistance. To make matters worse, the Taiyangese maintain their naval blockade, wealthy Cliffsbayans have declared themselves the emperors of new city-states, and the indigenous folk of Penjarhao besiege the city from land. It seems no matter what the party does, there will inevitably be bloodshed. And lots of it.
