Recap

This week at Alakazam Comics in Irvine, CA, the Game Show enters the Briny Maze in search of mind flayers to murder–there are also prisoners to rescue and shards to restore, but that is way less important than killing mind flayer. We meet some githyanki who are not interested in killing mind flayers. We defeat some flaming skulls with a bit of meta-gaming. Also, there are walnut milk shots. #DnD

Summary

Beyond a Lightless Star

The mind flayer fanatics have fled from the subterranean stronghold of Illithinoch to the Far Realm. There, the fanatics commune directly with their wicked deity, Ilvaash, as they begin a sinister ritual that will transform Humanoids in and around Phandalin into mind flayers. In the heart of Ilvaash’s hidden domain, the fanatics use the Netherese obelisk’s ancient magic to bring their ritual to completion. No one but the characters can stop their vile plan!

The fanatics have already begun their lengthy ritual. They believe themselves safely ensconced in Ilvaash’s domain, called the Briny Maze. At the heart of the Briny Maze, Ilvaash lurks in a vast, empty pocket of psychic quasi-reality called the Endless Void. The characters must navigate the Briny Maze—overcoming its dangers and negotiating with potential allies—before reaching the Endless Void and confronting the fanatics as well as a psychic refraction of Ilvaash.
