Every battle has an end. One half of our team fights an aboleth deep below the lake of Antaburgh, while Toz is locked in ritual combat against her own brother. Who will emerge triumphant? Raina sees a ghost. Morgan channels her inner Magneto. Equilibrium walks the eldritch dog. Delphi blunks (again). Toz makes a last stand. Tor makes a surprising choice.

Two battles in two cities come to a head. Who will emerge triumphant? Toz becomes a flamethrower . Tor concentrates real hard (or tries to at least). Delphi blinks around the battlefield. Raina does funky bard magic. Equilibrium taps into the great equation of existence. Morgan holds time in place. Follow our special guests Nate (@natescottjones) and Will (@will_byford) on Twitter!

CW: vomit 6:39 - 6:59. In two separate cities, the Tall Girls gear up for two separate fights. One, a planned practice between siblings, and the other, a foray into the unknown on the water of a lake. Raina flips a boat. Morgan gives the DM a gift. Equilibrium feels queasy. Tor receives an ominous message. Toz makes eggs. Delphi runs forward (and nothing else).Follow our special guests Nate (@natescottjones) and Will (@will_byford) on Twitter!Music by Chloe Elliott: A New World Dawns (Main Theme) Look No FurtherGlitch in RealityFor Glory and HonourThicker Than WaterArtwork by Eiriol Evans.Sound effects from Zapsplat.

There's something up with the water in Antaburgh, and our team are getting closer to figuring out what! They might be stuck in a time loop, but at least they aren't caught up with secret cults and squabbling siblings like the other half of the party... Equilibrium buys a fruit basket. Morgan remembers a name. Raina elbows Morgan... again. Toz sends an apology letter. Delphi makes a correction. Tor offers a prayer.
