Previously on Critical Role
''Last we left off: The Mighty Nein, having allied themselves with the Bright Queen and the Kryn Dynasty, took on a contract under Professor Waccoh -- a kooky half-orc professor who works in the Marble Tomes Conservatory within Rosohna, the capital city of the Dynasty – to inspect the steelworks at the Deepriver Mine. It had been overtaken by giants, and had halted production on a number of very important war machines that she had designed to help with the war effort against the Empire. Upon traveling there, you spoke with some of the figures, you embarrassed the foreman, at her request, and then went on to meet these giants, combat them briefly, and make friends. Then, traveling with the Landspeaker, the spiritual head of their troop, headed back to the Braan, their home in the mountains, that had been overtaken by some sort of strange demonic incursion. Wandering through the halls, you began to watch as some of the dead flesh of her brethren that were left behind began to be borrowed by some of these demonic entities and rise to fight you, along with other creatures that were tearing through familiar portals, seemingly connected to distant abyssal areas. Upon defeating these creatures, a few of you nearly having your life siphoned a few times, you managed to carve your way to the top, sealed the portal, and discovered the source of these portals in a second device –  the second you’ve discovered – that seems to be some sort of an abyssal anchor that begins to loosen the veil between the realms the longer it resides in those spaces. You also burned a goblin. After a hard-fought battle, and freeing the Braan of this terrible demonic presence, Landspeaker Soorna and the rest of you took an evening’s rest before journeying back to complete this particular quest. ''

'''In that evening’s rest, the storm had come in that had long been looming as the days of travel had guided you here, and in the rainy evening, Nott and Jester waited out by the door as they watched Yasha make her way into the storm, in a series of attempts to connect with the mysterious Storm Lord that seems to be occasionally wandering into her dreams and speaking in riddles, the entity that pulled her from a dark place long ago. In your dreams that night, you seemed to make some connection, and some imagery, some questions, some moments of reflection that you get to now unravel as the morning comes to find you.''
