Even with Iolda thoroughly defeated, a Third Circle Demon does not go down easily. He survives, wounded but intact, in his castle body. Also, Gavel was grievously injured in the duel. As the Circle searches for ways to treat wounds beyond what Exalted healing factors can fix, HellCon has officially begun. And with it comes a smattering of old allies and new Chosen. The biggest gathering of Celestial Exalted in living memory is happening now, and with it Malfeas approaches an inflection point. Where it leads, not even the Yozi know.
Lythander walks into a verbal beartrap, and discovers a novel new medical technique! Gavel consults the greatest physicians of Hell, and must judge the costs of medical treatment that go far beyond more money could represent! Aura attempts to mend bridges with PSU, and stumbles onto the final puzzle piece for her plan to reshape the cosmos via mass human supernatural agency! A lot of weirdos show up to the convention! Iolda is malding in the corner the whole episode! And, somewhere in his bowels, another fresh Exaltation occurs. A wild card among wild cards, unseen since the Divine Rebellion itself, takes the stage, playing many games at once. But who comes out on top of the house of cards?
This is an Actual Play of Exalted Essence, the classic high-fantasy high-powered TTRPG, using the new Essence ruleset! If you're interested, you can buy it now, right off the Drivethrurpg site!

As HellCon continues, the Circle progresses on their plans to slay Iolda for good. In holding a panel for upgrading their warstriders, our heroes learn more about the people at the All-Thing, and at the hidden dangers lurking at its heart. Well, not TOO hidden-with Infernal Exalted some degree of peril is always about!
Lythander perfects his new mushroom surgery technique and enjoys himself at the convention: probably the only one doing so without sinister motives! Gavel's relationships get way more complicated, both with her magical talking dog familiar and the one demon higher in SWILIN's soul structure than Iolda himself! Aura hosts a game show, and finally makes progress on booting Ed back up! The Exigent of Betrayal reveals themself, and with them the worrying collateral damage that follows in their wake! As the gang continues to strike at Iolda's most vulnerable points, so to do other, eviler plans. And one of those might tear Hell itself apart...

The assorted background schemes of the All-Thing have officially begun, as the corrupted Peaches of Immortality begin to make rounds at the con venue. Also, the con venue is still alive, angry, and fighting back as our heroes continue to battle him amidst the Infernal meetup. As these demonic fruits prove capable of killing even the Exalted, our Circle will have to find who is distributing them fast. Otherwise, the Infernal host will be decimated, and the culprits will have thousands of millennia of stored life juice ready to sip...
Aura encounters a horrifiyingly powerful, fourth-wall distorting raksha queen at the convention, and sees the results of Spider breaking his grand oath to the Circle bear fruit in surprising ways! Lythander finally fixes Gavel's spine, but can he fix his fraying relationship with Spider? Gavel wanders into the very depths of Iolda to strike at his heart, and learns just how powerful the upper tiers of Solar Circle Sorcery truly are firsthand! Nue has trouble keeping up with the half dozen evil schemes flying about everywhere! Pedro the chicken necromancer sets up an incredible Chekov's Gun for later! And as Iolda's core is exposed, so too is the culprit of the malfeasance in the Malfean All-Thing...

The ringleaders of the corrupted Peaches of Immortality racket have been brought to light. We already knew Tepet Etep was the one producing them, but the identity of his distributor is...complicated. And even as the Circle closes in on them, the contingencies they prepared ahead of time make this a fight unlike anything our heroes have been in this era. One that could reshape their very selves, even if they win...
Aura fights another hard counter to her abilities, and gets snubbed at by one of the setting's best martial artists for bringing a ranged weapon to a kung fu fight! Gavel readies herself to deal the final blow against Iolda, and prepares a bid to unite the entire Infernal Host! Lythander does some absolutely wild sneak checks and aims to steal the face of one of the games' overall antagonists! Nue has a big musou segment and gets everyone ready for a very deadly dinner! The battle to stop the All-Thing's entire attendee base from having the lifespans ripped out from them begins, and ends, now!

The Circle's war against Iolda. The fallout of Tepet Etep and Hundred Venom Stinger's assault on the All-Thing. The finals of the Ruvelia Memorial Football Tournament. Sky Sundering Shadow's necromantic working. Adrian and Ouroborous' setup to hijack Iolda's successor in the ranks of She Who Lives In Her Name's pantheon. And whatever Amir has been doing all this time, in the background. It all comes to a head tonight, as the Malfeas arc of this campaign nears its end, and we lurch further towards the endgame...

Gavel is finally up for her panel at the Infernal All-Thing, with numerous allies and enemies alike in attendance. As the Circle sets plans in motion to confront Final Glimmer of Fallen Stars, the sheer scope of the Deathlords and their Neverborn masters becomes evident. As does Mnemon Loki's hidden machinations in the con, and Ouroborous still trying to drive a wedge between the elite of demonkind. And...did our heroes really deal with the kingpin of the corrupted peaches of immortality racket? Or was that a false front?
Aura has to walk a social tightrope in the Tepet Etep follow-up, and with confronting an aggressively ambivalent Ligier in the All-Thing royal workshop! Lythander has to make a choice between his soulsteel-breaking motivations and his own current panopoly, and suffers yet another betrayal so soon after Amir soul-divorced him! Gavel takes the measure of the Infernal Host as both allies and enemies, and admits some truths to herself about her relationships with the other Chosen! Bramble-Fist Yao airs the Abyssal Exalted's dirty laundry for everyone to see! And while Ligier gives the champions their due, his reagents for his craft are as enigmatic and taxing as always. Are his prices something our heroes can afford?

HellCon has officially ended, and with it the Circle is finally free to pursue a goal they've had since the very start: payback against the Empire of Prasad for rampant imperialsm and trying to kill them with the biggest Wyld Hunt since the Bull of the North! Or, rather, they will be, once the lingering legal battle in Malfean court is dealt with! Also that other Sidereal who has been lingering in the background! Also also getting cleanup underways for the demon peach cartel!
Aura finds herself on the wrong end of multiple law systems, and considers a devilish bargain to escape unscathed! Lythander's anti-soulsteel artifice is complete by Ligier's hands: or at least, it will be once he adds a mythically difficult-to-craft final piece! Gavel and her troops are threatened with one of the most devious tools in the Sidereal toolkit: weaponizing the concept of a narrative time skip! Nue expands on current Silver Pact politics: local Lunar factors could prove the decisive edge against Prasad, if you can survive talking to them! And the full scope of Prasad's military might is revealed: beyond thousands of Dragon-Blooded, there are other dragons laying in waiting...

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!

With the Tiger's Nest Coalition at their backs, the Circle advances on Madara, ready to stoke the city-state's rebellious underbelly into a full revolt against their Prasadi oppressors. Not that it'll be easy, given the gaggle of Dragonblooded officers protecting it, as well as the Dragon King merged with a potent war god. And, of course, the Sidereals are here. Multiple of them this time. And this is just the FIRST half of the Act 4 finale!
Aura fights to protect her pride, and sees for herself the consequences of Spider breaking his geass with her! Lythander singlehandedly fractures the Prasadi chain of command to Madara, and encounters a body warping effect beyond even his shapeshifting and curse-breaking skills! Gavel finally gets to punch another god in the face, and her troops prove their mettle against the mightiest foe of all: the weather! Spider once again bites off more than he can chew, with very poor timing when the calvalry arrives! And the Chosen of Secret's backup plan goes into motion: Final Glimmer is no longer the only fallen star the Circle has to contend with...

The finale of Act 4, wherin Prasad's Sidereal backers pull down a literal star from the literal sky to try and kill our heroes. One of the infamous devil stars is loosed from their prison, the ultimate desperation move from Prasad to quash the Ashen Ones' advance before they can break their hold on Madara. Can our heroes overcome a foe that the First Age Exalted could only lock away at best? Or will they fall as so many other would-be rebels against The Realm's tributaries have in generations past? One way or another, the Dreaming Sea will never be the same!
