    Entering the Moonfiend Grotto was definitely an experience. One moment we were in the spiraling hallways of the labyrinthine hospital, and the next we were emerging onto a small, dark sanded beach. The grotto, or at least the part of it we’d stepped into wasn’t exactly what I’d expected. I’d...

    The formal dinner was unsettling. We were offered seats of honor next to the Doctor, which was odd on its own because he shouldn’t have even known who we were beyond ‘friends of Stanley’. Despite that, though, he was fawning over us as politely as possible, making it clear he recognized us as...

    “So,” Stanley said as we took our seats across from him. “We have your meeting scheduled for the Moonfiend Grotto. We’re not on the best terms with the owner, but he’s not EXACTLY an enemy. You’ll need to pay the entrance fee yourselves, but without us, you’d never have gotten the chance.” I...

    I woke up the next day feeling refreshed. It felt…good to sleep properly, to let myself unwind. Now that we were so close, I felt like I could breathe for a minute. Not too long, mind, I had work to do, but it was nice not to feel like an axe was hanging over my wife’s head for a minute...

    The interior of the Ralkyne house was just as unsettling as the outside. The same black stone and red veins permeated the inside of the house, but more than just the materials made it jarring. Somehow, the angles of the place seemed wrong. Jagged lines where none should be disrupted the flow of...

    We spent a while at The Pumpkin. Bethy DID, in fact, try pumpkin beer, and she drank way too much of it, and we all universally agreed that Bethy wasn’t allowed to touch beer ever again because whatever Maenad nonsense made her immune to wine didn’t work on the stuff apparently. We weren’t...

    The Hollow Pumpkin was surprisingly crowded. I don’t know why the word hollow had convinced me the place would be completely empty, but when we stepped inside, I was shocked by just how noisy and energetic it was. Groups of Ascendants at tables, doing shots, playing cards, occasionally doing...

    We were attacked six times on the road to Bloodcrest. None of the attacks were particularly successful, and Lark didn’t even need to get involved, but it was still a stark contrast to my relatively peaceful journey on the Void roads not too long ago. It didn’t bode particularly well for…well...

    “So, we have a few problems,” I told my friends as we left the chasm. “The Realm of Endless Summer, as Atlas calls it, is…complicated. The entire thing is built on very esoteric principles, ones of emotion and disconnection and-” “It’s a webworld,” my dad cut in. “Isn’t it?” I raised an...

    The pickup we’d had arranged wasn’t what I’d expected. I’d figured it would be a teleporter, or maybe a ship, but when we arrived to meet Alara, neither of those things were present. Instead, sitting next to her, gleaming white against the void of space, was a tall set of magnificent double...

    The next morning, I called everyone together. All my friends, my cabinet, my allies. I called them all and I laid down the law. I told them what I was doing, where I was going, and why. And I was humbled by the fact that every single one of them volunteered to go with me and help. Unfortunately...

    I felt…not better, but human at least, by the time we reached the palace at the battlefront. I’d slept, eaten, and done a modicum of supervised research with Elonwy, who had strict instructions from my family to keep me from going overboard. Still, I did get some work done, and having an S-rank...

    My first order of business when I got on the Acheron was to get back to work. Tea with Percival and my grandfather had been…less of an imposition than I’d have expected. Knowing I could find Callie and being able to see she was alright were both powerfully soothing factors, and it allowed me to...

    “So, how is this a lodge?” I asked gruffly as we stopped on a hilltop, staring down at what was the least lodgelike building I’d ever seen in my life. Huge and made of crumbling stone pillars, moss overgrowing the sides, the building looked like nothing so much as a- “He doesn’t like the word...

    Space is big. Now, one might consider that an obvious statement, given the place in question, but you don’t really get a grasp on HOW big until you travel via Domain. Ships are enclosed, it’s like a building, and while you can look outside to see what’s going on, you’re not ACTUALLY in the...
