Episode 30: Here in the Dark

Welcome to tonight's episode of Critical Role. We are returning. So much has happened. We have been here as all of our adventurers of Aramán have returned here to Dol-Makjar.
It is opening night of "KoTher'ai" which has reconnected the orcish afterlife to Aramán after 70 years of it being lost post the death of the Shapers.
We also found ourselves in this moment seeing the inner machinations of the Sundered Houses. Wicander Halovar and Tyranny back in the good graces of the Candescent Creed. To witness the impromptu alliance trial and accusations heaped at Primus Tachonis about the Deva Vindicta and his various plans. And we saw him basically (after all of this evidence that had been compiled by the different adventurers over time) be unable to say anything other than,
"Yeah, we tried to, but isn't out alliance more important than life or death? After all look at the grand work we are here to do."
The Lady Amariya Dacen Cormoray showed up. Termina (a member of the Panto and Bolaire's sister) arrived back. Who seemed to have gotten out of the box. She is out and about doing her thing.
We also have our friends at Obrimus Manor that have just turned the Lady Dame Gaya Seremai back into an undead summon of Occtis Tachonis in their search to rescue Mara the Wing from Obrimus Manor (which they have precious little time to do while the Tachonis are out at this meeting of the Sundered Houses).
Afterlife's discovered, play's opening night, druids attempting to be rescued, trying to hold up the Tachonis family at this meeting for as long as possible, and Kattigan Vale captured by Tyranny's sisters (dumped out of a sack to see that the Lord of House Tachonis is none other than the sorcerer who murdered his wife and child all those years ago). Kattigan, the claws of the demons wrap around your arms and begin to pull you from the room along with Wuleric as you see Petra and Ryah Tachonis gesturing to the lords to vacate. You see Primus doesn't seem to register you at all and begins to walk to the head of the table to engage in private conversation with Yanessa Halovar.
Wick, you are still in the room, but I think, Tyranny, you are following Kattigan out with the demons. Filoneus is coming with them.
Kattigan, you are being pulled through the doorway as you see Primus there. What is occurring with you? What do you do in this moment?
