Act 4 Episode 24: Death(knights) Perched on the Edge of the Dragon's Lair

The Circle approaches the Tiger's Nest Coalition, in hopes of building up an alliance to take on the Empire of Prasad directly. Getting there isn't the hard part, after escaping She Who Lives In Her Name's vengeful worldbody and hopping back into Creation. The hard part is that Prasad already has feelers out: even unaware of the extent of the Ashen Ones' victory over the Wyld Hunt, a polity with thousands of Dragonbloods and divine backers at their disposal have a wide reach. And our heroes will only have the element of surprise for so long...

A demon hitching a ride from Malfeas plays a funny prank on the entire Circle, leaving Gavel and Aura flummoxed for the whole episode! Lythander is trapped in the Underworld with a very irritated Sidereal, and of all creatures, his familiar Pedro the necromancer chicken has to pick up his slack! Strawmaiden Janest meets her match against a new foe: a ochilike Dragon King in Prasad's employ, wielding the fearsome powers of MATH! The mystery Abyssal from the AllThing reveals himself and gets the closest to killing a PC since Octavian himself! The end of Act 4 is within reach, and with it, payback against Prasad!
