Ragon had returned! But he was greatly changed. His attire was strange: He wore a red suit cloaked in roiling flames. Just as striking to those who knew him was the conspicuous absence of the corruption that had scarred his face for years. Furthermore, Ragon reported that the soul anchors stamped onto his back by Devin were now gone. What had happened to him?

The Pisspots entered the treasure room and shut the door behind them to keep out the rising tide. There was more wealth here, including several diamonds, than they could possibly carry home with them. They really should have thought to bring a Bag of Holding or something.

The Pisspots had arrived at the final destination of their hastily accepted and poorly planned sailing excursion: A small island alleged to contain vast wealth guarded by deadly beasts and nefarious traps. An unmoving storm cloud shrouded the island and was their last obstacle to making landfall.

Convinced they would eventually need to confront Devin and concerned about the soul anchors he placed on their backs, the Pisspots teleported to the Cathedral of the Divines to seek advice for removing them. They met God-Touched Emil who did little to ease their worries.

The Pisspots realized they needed to get their hands on some diamond dust to restore Mav and Remi from their petrified states. Kaicho and Braxis used a teleportation circle to travel to Academy Island and headed to the College of Healing. The war casualties were staggering and the demand for life-saving spell components was exceptionally high. Most-Divine Emilia told them that a single large diamond was en route to the college and was planned to be used to resurrect a dead soldier. She offered Kaicho a choice: he could allow her to save the soldier’s life, or he could take the diamond for himself once it arrived to restore his friends.
