Tavern Watch Plays Legend in the Mist, Episode 3: Welcome to the real party

In the final episode of our Legend in the Mist actual play, the Inkwell Club has managed to calm down the frenzied (and cursed) Spring Renewal Festival, only to see that several townsfolk are still caught in the thrall of something sinister and being led down the narrow switchback paths to the bottom of Skunk Glen Ravine. What awaits them there, other than a pile of the village’s cast-offs? Will they get to the bottom without losing their possessions, their fellow villagers, or their lives? And if it’s true that one person’s trash is another person’s treasure, does that mean Skunk Glen Ravine is full of treasure if you’re the right kind of person? Only one way to find out — down we go.

Narrator Phil Ulrich is starting to draw the curtain on this mystery; the Inkwells, as always, are played by:

• Joe Perez as Daisuke, a studious capybara-person from the local hot spring with a secret talent for water magic
• Trish Olson (AwkwardishPanda) as Meadow, a traveling diviner who sees omens and portents in the stars
• Kameron (Tetsemi) as Tom, a young and slightly-cursed runaway lad who tends to dive in head-first without thinking
• Matt Rossi as Sorena, a former bear cub polymorphed into a blacksmith’s apprentice, torn between two worlds
• Liz Harper as Selby, the somewhat overworked town alchemist (and her loyal beast of a hound dog, Ollie)

This is the finale of a three-part series of Legend in the Mist — the first episode is here, the second episode is here, and you can watch every Monday for new episodes of whatever we do next! This isn’t our first time playing the rustic fantasy game from Son of Oak, however; you can check out our prior adventures here with a different trio of villagers. If you think this game sounds fun, you should be able to pick up your own copy from Son of Oak in the very near future!

The music in this episode is by Phat Phrog Studios — “Mana Malt,” from the Bard’s Rest collection.
