About this episode

The group navigates a strange meat room in a castle while trying to rescue Zariel and make a deal for their escape.

Welcome to Botched: A D&D Podcast! We have a special guest! Stephen Adams is still here and he’s playing Marbles! A devilish accountant in Avernus. The group is going to need all the help they can get, as they try to make their way out of the Hells. They’ve just finished climbing the cloaca of the castle itself and are now inside! They find themselves in some sort of strange meat room/bathroom. Now they just have to sneak their way through (because they’ve been struck by lightning so many times), and find Zariel, who’s being tortured somewhere in the castle. The hope is that they can make a deal with Zariel in the hopes that by releasing her, she’ll help them escape. However, not everything goes according to plan and tragedy strikes the team! Does the group find Zariel? Will she help them? What sort of deal are they going to try to make? What tragedy is going to strike the team? How do soulstones work, anyways? Tune in and find out! Find Stephen Adams on Instagram , but also he has podcasts for you to check out! Check out 2DorksTV on Twitch to see all of his different shows! Dennis has successfully completed a Kickstarter for his 4th graphic novel in his Lycan: Solomon’s…
