Events:
--- Wait Come Back I've Got a Quest For You!
- Our heroes leave the vicinity of the crashed angel petal, fog swirling around their feet. They pass by the three statues of Necromancer-Generals... and one speaks!
- He declares himself to be Bezonaught the Boogeyking and offers his paralysing ectoplasmic gifts and treasure in exchange for the party killing off the Cyrus-worshipping Necromancers back there.
- The party duly writes the quest into their quest log and head off. Mount Death-Frost here they come! Why kill the Cyrus-worshippers when they can just go see the man himself?

--- Back Through Kink
- It's still a Heatwave but it's somehow even more heatwavey. Is it the humidity? Whatever it is, everyone's quickly absolutely exhausted. Celebus ejects his skeleton to escape the oppressive heat of his mortal shell and carries his sweaty meat over his skeleton shoulder. Everyone else just has to sweat it out.
- They barely make it to Kink and see that even the crabs are going red. They head straight for the river, upstream of the eggs obviously, and have a relieving dip. Swan spots some Swarm Minnows - streams of minnows that leap out of the water in big groups so they look like one big fish - and catches them in Celebus' skinbag body.
- Celebus himself catches a lobster! While everyone admires it, Swan sneakily nicks some crab eggs.
- They take their delicious spoils to the now-empty house of convicted murderer Barry d'Louse. He has a remarkably well equipped kitchen, so they cook up their new meal!

- It's called "Deliciously Fleasin' Lobster", using a combination of corpse flea meat, lobster, crab eggs, and minnows. It's not that tasty, but Swan really manages to make it work! Conveniently, the bonus is that it protects from weather effects! Heatwave begone!
--- Distant Dragon
- They set off north in the direction of Mt Death Frost. The road goes through the now infamous territory of a Crystal Dragon! They crunch across sharp crystal pieces, wary for dragonsign.
- They spot it in the sky! Floating crystal structure wings, sharp angular body, tough crystalline core... it's a dragon alright!
- They duck like chickens when a hawk passes overhead and thankfully it doesn't spot them, winging its way somewhere more interesting.

--- Samuel's Saloon
- They continue on and notice a strange cave with a neon glow. At first they think it might be the crystal dragon's lair, but they left the crunchy crystal behind about half an hour ago.
- They investigate and find themselves in... a saloon? The music stops, and some grizzled but surprisingly handsome cowboy-types turn to glare. The bartender nods and the fiddlers start playing again. The bartender himself is a beautiful man with soft bouncy locks and very kissable lips. It's Samuel! Known to the players as a lust demon and so presumably known to the characters by reputation.
- He offers love potions or to make people into handsome versions of themselves. Nobody takes him up on the offer until Swan offers Eegor!
- An extremely hot version of Eegor is here now. The original Eegor falls down in supplication. Handsome Eegor is somehow... more creepy?
- They stay in a tent just outside that night, and wake up to find that it's tipping down. Good thing Swan the Swift has a bunch of tupperware full of the weather resistance Lobster dish!

--- Ooga Booga
- The gang sets off, still heading north along the road. The rain abates into more of a light sprinkle, and through the rain they spot a fissure in the earth. There are Knotsmen there, poking around after crawling out of the fissure.
- There's a scuttling sound from over a nearby hill, and some crabs crest it and charge down the slope! Their stone shells are daubed with woad and one clutches a big wooden club in one pincer! Those who speak crab hear their words - "OOGGAAA BOOOOGAAAA!"
- The Knotsmen duck back into their fissure and the crabs charge over them, scuttling sideways towards the party! Swan the Swift swiftly tosses them some of the remaining rations and the crabs stop to inspect it. They are clearly caveman crabs, all "hmm... food... hmm... hmm.... good... hmm".
- Now they see the party as friends, one of them goes to investigate the fissure. He looks down and... SHUNK! A crossbow bolt nails it in the head! The poor crab slumps while the other crabs scuttle about madly!
- Celebus casts Death Rattle on the dead crab, spooking the Knotsmen down the hole! The rest of the party runs over and joins battle, raining bolts down on the Knotsmen hiding in their hole! Iskander manages to keep the stun going by echoing his noisemaker bolts off the walls.
- Liber gambits down the hole to attack one of them and gets the first ONE MORE! since the new gambit stuff came in! Swan the Swift joins the gambit and together they spin down the hole and behead a couple of Knotsmen!
- Celebus skids down the slope so he can catch a Last Breath! His first! Finally!

--- Into the Veins
- One Knotsman remains - they've got a crossbow, heavy armour, and every time they move they hiss with pain as the armour presses against their knotted flesh. He declares that he must kill the party now but won't say why.
- Liber slides up smooth and flickers her Bibliognost threads across his skin. They scrawl up under his armour and into his ears and she finds out a dark secret of the Knotsmen. Their ancestors faced destruction and so sold future generations to a forgotten god. The Knotsman hisses as another tight knot of veins clenches on his body - this is information that must never be known by outsiders.
- Celebus takes pity on the guy and ejects his skeleton. The Knotsman thanks him profusely, he's finally free of constant torment!
- The party notice that there's a way deeper down into the depths and decide that they might as well see how far down it goes... into the Veins of the Earth.
