Leaving the Black City is, in theory, the easy part.
In practice, this party has never met an “easy part” they couldn’t make emotionally complicated.
After the chaos of the Crimson Court, the party prepares to depart Drogmalhar with final words from Prince Lariel, a farewell from Valroth, and one small but heavy reminder for Zelphira:
Virelia’s ring.
Because apparently one emotionally devastating family heirloom was not enough.
With Requiem leading the way, the party begins the long road back to Slavoka. And for once, they find something almost suspiciously rare:
Peace.
No court assassinations.
No vampire politics.
No public betrayals.
Just wilderness, allies, and enough quiet for everyone’s unresolved feelings to start making eye contact.
Naturally, Karina uses this moment to investigate Requiem’s portable hole, where Plop has apparently been storing ingredients for what can only generously be called “experimental soup.”
A meal is made.
Questions are raised.
No one is legally prepared to call it food.
But even comedy has teeth in Stravia.
For Requiem, the soup stirs something darker: a terrible voice, the scent of blood and dried flowers, and the lingering shadow of Selene.
Meanwhile, Reginold returns Zelphira’s pendant, not only found, but masterfully repaired—a quiet, careful act of devotion from a prince who apparently expresses affection through craftsmanship and emotional damage control.
And just when the road begins to feel safe, Nyx receives an unexpected visitor.
His father.
Because nothing says “peaceful travel episode” quite like family showing up with plot implications.
The party has left the Black City behind.
Mostly.
But the things they carry are starting to speak.
And some of them have teeth.
