Previously on Critical Role
"Vox Machina had just finished destroying the long-standing reign and terrorizing assault of the Chroma Conclave across the face of Tal'Dorei. As [they] finished that chapter, defeating Raishan and collecting the remnants of the necromancer's sanctum where the final battle took place, [they] returned with the unfortunately fallen corpse of [their] friend Scanlan Shorthalt.

"[They] succeeded in the resurrection, however upon returning from Vasselheim and Scanlan coming to consciousness, it was discovered that Scanlan was in a place in his life where he needed to take some time with his estranged and recently discovered daughter. Arguments ensued, and agreement was had that he would step away from Vox Machina to follow his own path.

"The group took a period to mourn and then began to decide what their next layer of plans were, what loose ends still were held out there, and [they] made [their] way to the city of Ank'Harel on the continent of Marquet to return the right hand of Ripley—the person responsible for assassinating a member of the Scarbearers within the Debt's Respite Tavern in the city.

"As [they] made [their] way past the bazaar towards the inn, on the outside [they] saw what appeared to be a large humanoid structure built of iron and metal walking on its own behind a very well-, flashily-dressed blond gentleman with [a] goatee and a braggardly demeanor, who managed to weasel his way into the company of Vox Machina and to continue his adventures alongside theirs, as his robot friend Doty continued to archive it in his book of his adventures."
