After making their way to a picturesque seaside cove in search of Keledek's ally Darlixiatera, The Inside Outsiders/BF3 dispatch Adrian's familiars to scout the scene before bedding down for the night. Spooky lights; mysterious magical influences; a deep, dark sinkhole; and a mass grave of merfolk bones all paint an increasingly-insidious picture of the predicament their quarry might have gotten herself into. Who or what is waiting and watching as the party delves ever deeper? | ||||

After being introduced to three mermaids, the BF3 further explore the domain of Ogrorlo, dead aboleth tyrant, in search of the missing Darlixatera, snagging a magic trident in the process. Revelation follows revelation as the mermaids--really a coven of sea hags--attempt to enlist the party in overthrowing a powerful enemy--Granny Nightshade, night hag terror of the Dreadwood. The team elects to report to their quest-giver, Keledek, rather than engage with the wicked fey: but Darlixatera, a still-unseen dragon, remains in peril. | ||||
