Shadow of the Demon (D&D 5e) - Episode 3

Previously: In our previous episode, back at the inn, in Renchant’s room, Renchant and Tatyana enjoy an evening together. Renchant gets his massage and tries to seduce the young woman; he offers her a job to come with him to the south. He succeeds in convincing her to come, but she turns the tables on him. She recognizes her prospects are small in this town filled with refugees. And with war on the horizon and many uncertainties, she believes a connection with Renchant is actually for the best, but on her terms. She says she’ll come on one condition, if there’s a promise of marriage. Marriage was not in Renchants deck of cards, yet she somehow wrangles an engagement out of the half-drunk mage. She also reveals that her father is an estranged knight of the realm, Sir Collin Bolstead, and as the frantic mage wonders what just happened, she makes him promise her that he won’t run away in the middle of the night, that they are engaged, after all. Let’s find out what befalls Master Renchant, mage and hero. Has he met his greatest threat yet or found his dearest treasure in the form of Tatyana (or Tatanya)?   Attributions: - 'Emergent' and 'The Long Dark' by Scott Buckley (www.scottbuckley.com.au) released under CC-BY 4.0. - Various tracks by Tabletop Audio ( https://tabletopaudio.com) - released under CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0.
