Darkest Dungeon: The Precipice of Oblivion

Field Report A127 - Expeditions into the manor, which locals term "the Darkest Dungeon" continue today. Elizabeth's team, which included Lee, Gwyndolin and my dear friend Dr. Shen did not fare better than Dieannin Avery's. Only the woman escaped. To her credit her mind is in better condition than his when he returned to the hamlet. The way was cleared by team three with Blunder Buss, Big Mike, Lu Lingqi and Catharina though. As I understand it, Blunder Buss played a pivotal role in destroying the shambler that had devoured so many of our number. His earlier fault is widely regarded as redeemed.

Begone, vile fiend!

Party Girl, Gillian, Yuria and the Paleshade entered the second sub basement and discovered even more horrific creatures below - scorpion men? Fortunately they took my advice of taking the relics Big Mike's team discovered with the shambler which protected them from many of their attacks. With the way lit, the path is ready for my squad to enter the third floor. I am afraid, but also excited to see what discoveries I will find down there.

By the gods, the Weald is a terrible place. While Blunder Buss, Zermu Terlu, Party Girl and that ex-gladiator Gigal defeated the Hag Witch - the rest of us were running supply runs and chanced upon a most terrible weapon whereupon the main brigand host had gathered. Knowing a chance encounter should not be squandered I tasked numerous teams to try destroy this forbidden machinery. I regret to say, they have all failed.

Losses were immense.

Those slain by the brigands were: Elvis, Dieannin Avery, Peacefulness, Maco Meng, Raven Daydream, Cale, Ana Hernandez, Nick Hernandez (no relation), and MissBarbara. With most of the supplies and funding going towards the Darkest Dungeon expeditions, it is all we can do to hold back this foe for as long as we can for they are legion. If only the Unkindled one was here... Zermu Terlu's scowl is terrifying.

There's a large source of bacon.

With a final push, the warrens are now clear. Once again, Wilbur was found this time whispering in the ear of a massive creature they call the Swine God. Despite losing Boris Pavlovich and Liadri, Dr. Shen and Rocket Man were able to scrape a victory through a battle of attrition. A second team composed of Yuria, Alvinia and Shalquoir, Party Girl and Lu Lingqi, vanquished the formless flesh while all being at the precipice of death.

Elsewhere we lost Andre who was strangled by a raving madman and Saranthor whose heart was exploded by a cultist witch. Also lost were Zhurong, Maughlin and Masu of the first exploration team sent into the Darkest Dungeon where tentacled priests worship a horrible beast that matches the description of the shambler let loose so long ago. Only Dieannin Avery returned alive, his mind half gone but with a map that might prove useful for the next expedition.

Adventures of Skyrim - spoilers ahead! You can follow the rest of the story here!

A Dunmer templar Dieannin Avery decided to team up with me in rounding up all the townsfolk at Bleakrock which made the job really easy. Since the local "bandits" turned out to be advanced scouts for the Covenant, it wasn't really safe to hang around any longer and so we set sail down the coast all the way to the Argonian settlement of Bal Foyen in hopes to avoid the Covenant fleet. A plan that failed since the Covenant were already attacking there.

While interrupts are good, killing an enemy is better.

The quest branched at this point giving the option of either defending the fort with civilians or the docks with soldiers with grave connotations for the one we opted to neglect. Dieannin and I simply shrugged and decided to do both: he'd go with the Dunmer She-Captain to the docks while I headed to the fort... where Covenant were gating in. Really? What's the point of walls?

Regardless, both defense points were successful. I slew the mage themed Covenant commander while Dieannin Avery handled what sounded to be a more brute force type leader who killed the Dunmer She-Captain. We were then tasked with alerting the next town along of the impending threat and hoofed it on to the walled city of Davon's Watch. At its gates I finally part with Dieannin. Thanks dude!
