C3 - Ep39: A Secret They Must Keep

A bat flies into the tent, looks around, and flies back out. Nobody at the table thinks it was a bat. Twenty Sides is a fast-paced, story-driven actual play Dungeons & Dragons podcast. This is Campaign 3: Crownfall, Episode 39. This picks up the same night. Zalkum leaves them with one instruction, tell no one, and a reason to take it seriously that has nothing to do with devils and everything to do with who is running the outpost. Then the party sits in the dark and starts doing the arithmetic out loud: what order any of this has to happen in, whether you close the portal before or after you free what is behind it, and how a person is supposed to reach the Hells in the first place. By morning they are the talk of the camp. Brother Havoc lets himself into the tent without knocking, and he has questions: the fortress, the map, and whether any of it matches the reports he already has from a world nobody has walked in before. A debrief with command is waiting after that. The interesting part is not what they report. It is the short, quiet conversation they have first about what they are going to leave out. New here?
