Two delvers set off into the depths of the Heart on orders from their handlers in the City Above. One, a Gnoll Hound, is forced to be there by the moonsilver collar he wears. The other, a Drow Witch, struggles with her past and is inexplicably drawn to the City Beneath. When they are tapped to escort a skittish academic to a deep Vermissian station, they find themselves embroiled in a plot to harness the suffering of a trapped creature to create a bomb, caught between their obligations and the Heart’s desire to set the creature free.

When three friends find themselves trapped inside the fictional world of the card game Dominion, they’ll have to play the game in order to escape. And that means–you guessed it–cranking out as much money as they possibly can and buying all the land they can get their grubby little hands on! Luckily, none of the people in the fictional world are real (or so they tell themselves), which means there’s no exploitative depths to which our…heroes…?…won’t sink if it means taking home the most Victory Points. Can they escape the game, or will they have to discard their futures to the trash? Listen to find out!
