==⁠⁠THE GAME⁠⁠==

The funeral is over, but the danger has just begun. In this episode, Sevastyan, Isac, and Reina enter the Queen’s wake, where political maneuvering is sharper than any blade and the great houses openly fracture in their quiet bid for the throne.

Splitting up to gather intelligence, Sevastyan locks into a dangerous verbal duel with N'dira T'yanda, the Dominion’s feared Blade, Isac binds himself with a blood oath to the Pilgrim Lord of Psukine, and Reina uncovers a deeply unsettling truth about the Crown itself.

When rumors surface of an imminent threat to the royal Griffins, courtly intrigue gives way to urgency, forcing the party to abandon the ballroom and storm the city’s Aviary, only to discover something unnatural has already beaten them there.
