C3 - Ep37: They Left Him In There

Three of them make it through the portal. One of them doesn't, and nobody notices until it's too late. The chapel fight ends here, and it ends strangely. The party has worked out the rule by now: every spirit they destroy adds another piece to the portal forming against the back wall, so the way out gets built one kill at a time. What they haven't worked out is what the spirits actually wanted. One of them sheds a tear before Annabel puts a dagger through its chest, and the table spends a moment deciding what that means. Two more appear kneeling at the altar, and somebody finally says the thing nobody wanted to say: we're trying to help them, and they have no idea. Thelandor is down to four maximum hit points, which means one more coin puts him on the floor until the party can manage a long rest. The portal is barely wide enough to shimmy through. And every spirit that dies still has to pass through Miller to get there. New here? Crownfall is a self-contained D&D 5e campaign — start at Episode 1 and you're caught up in a weekend.
