The party carefully makes their way through a dangerous stretch of the Underdark - a wild hunting ground filled with unknown threats and distant, unsettling sounds. As they try to slip toward an exit, trouble finds them. A sudden clash erupts near the tunnel mouth. Spells flash. Fists strike. One foe falls quickly, another tries to flee. With the immediate danger behind them, the group presses forward in search of freedom from the depths. But as the path seems to end, Bast edges around a dark corner… into whatever waits beyond. What lurks just out of sight?Will they finally escape the Underdark, or walk straight into something far worse? Tune in for tense exploration, fast decisions, and classic D&D suspense. New listener?
