The party is reunited in the depths of Tempest Top, with some soup, some rest, and a chance to examine what exactly is going on up here in the Storm Crest. Then they venture up to the Viewpoint, and what they see is shocking, to say the least.

In the aftermath of a big fight outside the ruins of Tempest Top, Jasoo, Jo, and Titan start to put some pieces together about what these Koro soldiers are up to. Yama gets cagey when confronted with an old key, and June comes down from the ledge high up on the cliffs.

Here's a sample of a Patreon Exclusive Bonus Show we're calling Collide-a-Scope. This will be the space where we examine various ways in which fantasy and the real world collide!
This week Joshua brings you a conversation with Deanna and Torsten about how D&D and other table top role playing games can have therapeutic benefits, both formally and informally. 
Here are the sources we mention in the episode:
The article we discuss.
The website for Ten Candles. 50 Patreon members and we'll record an episode of this game!

Crit is starting to go down in the Storm Crest Mountains. Jasoo, Jo, and Titan pick themselves up, reckon with what just happened, and reconnect with Yama. They continue investigating what's going on up in this mountain valley, and approach Tempest Top. When they get there, you might be care'n about what they do. 
In Dirty Crit, we get into some nuanced conversations about what it means to ask for a manager, and whether or not you need to drink that cocktail you really don't love.
And even though this was recorded back in the early fall, stay tuned because we hop on at the end to thank our Founding Patreon Members.

Jo, Jasoo, and Titan continue their foray into the forest, encountering some of its inhabitants. They get some rest in an unlikely spot, and enjoy acorn coffee, despite its caffeination limitations. 
Their host plays guide and shows them the source of the stream's impurities. Getting close enough to fix it, though, might prove ruff.
The discussion to follow covers everything from the ethics of imaginary bloodshed to 90s professional wrestling slang. 
Plus, Deanna reads all the five star reviews we've received so far. If you want yours read on the show, leave one today!
