Episode 8 opens with the party in a cave, having already defeated kobolds and acquired “maestros” under unclear circumstances. They meet Crimson, a cat who will join them if they retrieve an item for her. The party then approaches a magically unlocked door, heeding warnings to avoid looking into the darkness and at certain entities' faces. Wog interacts with a statue, and the party discovers fish recipes and experiences strange thoughts. This is followed by a humorous moment where Wog supposedly “learns where babies come from.” They are then confronted by five men. A discussion ensues about a treasure-less sewer room containing only trolls from a prior encounter. The game master confirms XP awards and the party discusses Wog's depleted healing abilities. The session concludes with plans for a short rest to recover resources, a reminder about future encounters, and the game master's mention of using “Jet” for file management. The episode ends with the party facing the five men and needing to rest.
“Wintermute was a simple cube of white light, that very simplicity suggesting extreme complexity.”
