Bones insists on taking this one. He won’t say why, but something in his hollow eyes says it’s personal. Before they go, Undred hosts a job fair to rebuild the Crow’s Nest’s crew. It’s chaotic, but successful. Meanwhile, Varin shops for supplies, eventually wandering into the Bazaar of the Bizarre, where he acquires a new pet and an ancient sword once wielded by an important historical figure.

Tankards slammed, stomachs turned, and the air reeked of shame and fermented fish. One by one, contenders dropped like flies, but not before Varin stole the show—charming a goblin lady of the night and somehow having a full emotional arc mid-contest. Meanwhile, Kaine and Salvadore found themselves the last two standing. With grudges set aside and liquor in hand, they took one final shot. Salvadore emerged victorious… until he failed to hold the cursed brew down for the required two minutes. That opened the floor for one last, chaotic round — and in a surprise finish, Undred claimed victory, winning back his council seat and clearing his name. The Crimson Cove cheered. The morning after was less triumphant. A strange man named Matt, clearly not mentally alone, arrived to deliver awkward energy — and a warning. Turns out he was possessed by none other than Evul Sam, the ghost of the former owner of diabolical cocktails . As a joke, Sam hopped into Varin’s body mid-convo, causing a minor crisis before promising (under duress) to never possess another Cinder Crest member again. Now, with drinks down and ghosts sorted, the crew looks ahead. Do they recruit and ready the Crow’s Nest, or take off toward Baflidal — and the 20 million gold bounty on Caleb “Longshot” Mourn?

From taking down a known enforcer of a Pirate Emperor, Stokely Townsend, to inciting a prison riot, things seemed to be working out for the Cinder Crest Pirates. Yet, everything has a breaking point. In this session, we find our Heroes battling beasts, betrayals, and brothers; both in friend and in blood. Is there a way for these wounds to heal, or will this be the breaking point of the Cinder Crest crew?
