is the fourteenth episode of the fifth chapter of Critical Role. After a tense discussion, Vox Machina finds themselves with an unlikely—and untrustworthy—ally. A risky plan is formed and the group heads to the ruins of Draconia to prepare for their battle with Vorugal the white dragon...

Recap
"Vox Machina, our band of adventurers, had been collecting the Vestiges of the Divergence, a series of artifacts, to prepare for their coming encounter with Thordak the Cinder King and the rest of the Chroma Conclave, a group of evil ancient dragons that banded together to tear across and dominate the Tal'Dorei countryside.

"During their most recent journey, they were tailing what appeared to be a competitive group searching for the same artifacts, led by a forgotten villain of the past known as Doctor Ripley. They were led into a trap, and a heavy battle took place, one that claimed the life of Percival. The party retrieved his body, took it back to Whitestone, and—through a series of very lucky rolls and imploring his soul to return once freeing it from the devouring jaws of Orthax the shadow demon—he was restored to life.

"The celebration was short-lived thus far. After an evening's rest, they were asked by their old ally Seeker Asum to meet him upstairs in Castle Whitestone in the War Room for a very important meeting. Upon arriving around the central table, Asum revealed himself to actually be Raishan, the green dragon and member of the Chroma Conclave, that Vox Machina had not seen since the original attack on Emon, and left them last with the bombshell bit of information that Raishan's here to make an alliance, and—as the party is as well—Raishan is interested in the destruction and downfall of Thordak the Cinder King."
