In Which Ysani Acquires Volendrung
I hadn’t actively planned to go after Volendrung this run, but it kind of worked out that way! So this session turned out to be all about getting the gigantic hammer, which I’ll likely hand off to Argis once I have it improved to my satisfaction.
Also, this post is going up a little late. It’s the post for play done on Sunday 4/3.
