This Dungeons and Dragons episode featured a mix of successful actions, surprising revelations, and pop culture references. The party returned to Waterdeep using the “Speak with Plants” spell for transportation, only to arrive with Esky still transformed into a giant, burning ape, creating a chaotic scene. They successfully delivered the mask to the council, but it was revealed to be a fake, adding a twist to their quest.
The Game Master casually mentioned that the dragon they chose to avoid fighting had destroyed a village with no survivors, downplaying the severity of the event. A brief Doctor Who reference hinted at potential GM deception. The party reminisced about a previous dragon encounter where they used powerful spells.
They then faced another dragon, with one player rolling successfully against it. Poppy was grappled during this encounter. The session also included an off-topic announcement of Arcane season two.
The party witnessed a Red Wizard in a perilous situation, and Gala used a Heal spell on Cheshire, restoring a significant amount of hit points. Finally, the episode included a reference to the movie Elysium.
