Act 4 Episode 14: Please Drink Yozi Corpse Water Responsibly

Lythander's long quest to free souls trapped within soulsteel. The enigma that is Ouroborous and their true goals in sowing chaos in Hell. Aura and Nue's preparations into their grand journey back to El Dorado. Tepet Etep's schemes and his theft of the peaches of immortality. The demon our heroes were pointed to in Orabilis's library has answers to all of these questions. But to make any headway, our Circle must confront their deaths. Of the past, of the possible future, of narrowly avoided brushes with the end, and of poor life decisions at the Body Upon the Water's Edge's lakefront property.   Gavel learns some highly uncomfortable things about the Infernal All-Thing: the most dangerous thing in Malfeas might just be her fellow con-goers! Aura learns a cool new trick and gets very stressed out with all of these dozens of nightmare quests going on at once! Lythander makes some...brave (?) decisions and finds that crucial information on anti-soulsteel forging that Gnosis tried to deny him last time! Nue pushes against her own insecurities and faces her past fears to help her Circle, and also makes some brave (?) calls too! Dark-Eyed Stargazer confronts his own mortality and starts making some plans for the (far) future! And we finally find out the depths of Wuxia Wario's schemes, and how he may be the spark that lights Ouroborous's firedust keg to explode all of Hell!
