Transcript[]
- Panel 1
Two demon cockroaches, the Monster in the Darkness, and Xykon are still in a part of the dungeon.
MitD: So where's Redcloak? I mean Actual Redcloak, not Crude Drawing of Redcloak.
Demon-Roach #1: It's an intentional decision!
Demon-Roach #2: The art style fits the story he's telling!
Xykon: Inside one of the dungeons. The green one, maybe?
- Panel 2
In a dungeon with a green floor, Redcloak, Oona, and Greyview are surrounded by a slew of slain monsters. Oona is tapping on a wall while Redcloak surveys the scene. Redcloak's eye is red in color.
Oona: No secretive doors. It is being another dead ending.
Greyview: All endings are dead.
Oona: Yes, but some are being much deader.
Redcloak: That's fine.
Redcloak: I didn't expect Kraagor's Gate to be in this particular dungeon. What concerns me is what we did find here.
Redcloak: Monsters. Behind a door we already marked.
- Panel 3
Panel zooms in on Oona, Greyview, and Redcloak.
Oona: Monster Hollow is often making more monsters.
Redcloak: But not so fast that a dungeon we cleared out this week would be full again.
Oona: Yes, is usually going slower.
- Panel 4
Panel focuses on Redcloak as he casts a spell that returns his eye to its normal yellow color.
Redcloak: Then either that moron under the umbrella messed up marking the doors—
Redcloak: —or the rate at which monsters spawn is being deliberately increased in response to our presence.
- Panel 5
Panel expands to include Oona.
Oona: Oona is liking Great Beast in Darkness, but Oona is also thinking maybe is mistaking a lot?
Redcloak: Normally, yes, carelessness would be the most probable explanation for this. Or literally anything that happens to, near, or because of us.
- Panel 6
The panel focuses on Redcloak again.
Redcloak: But the sudden appearance of opposing clergy strongly implies that enemy forces are secretly moving against us.
Redcloak: We need to head back out to the others and pick up the pace of exploration.
Redcloak: I have an idea or two about that...
- Panel 7
The panel expands to show Redcloak, Greyview and Oona walk out of the room they were in.
Redcloak: The fact that they're trying so hard to stop us just makes me more certain than ever that we're on the right track.
Oona: Ooo, bald man in red cape is reminding Oona of Oona's cousin! So fearless! So confident in self!
- Panel 8
The group walks down the corridor.
Redcloak: Huh, I don't think I've met your cousin yet.
Greyview: He ate poison berries and died.
Oona: Yes, but key point is, he was not letting clearly marked sign tell him what not to do!
