Lichen and Tam set foot on the Vault Ship. What awaits them as they weave their tangled web of lies and half truths?One day Ben will get his mic input locked down AND the instagram handle correct in the same episode.

With great power, comes great responsibility.At least, with real-world jobs, comes occasional scheduling difficulties. Unfortunately for the campaign, Michael had to fill in for an important meeting very last minute and wasn't able to join us to record a story session. So instead, Ben and Nathanael decided to talk about random DnD stuff again.We hope you enjoy it, and we should be back to Tyroa in two weeks!Also, here is our Instagram again, in case you wanna really pour over the 4 images we have up thus far...

Lichen and Tam work to put Lady Neema’s gift to good use. Like Tam always says, “Hachiman favors the prepared.” Lichen tries to get noticed, and Tam provides some backup.Apologies for the poor quality of Ben's audio. There was an oversight on which input was being recorded.

It has been a blast, and we are still enjoying telling stories with and for each other, and for you guys as well. Here’s to another year of ridiculousness and dice rolls with friends!Music and Sound Effects Courtesy of Tim at Tabletop Audio - tabletopaudio.comTracks Used - Pirates, Voyage Begins, Homecoming, Halfling Sneak, Viking Tavern

Lichen, Tam, and the crew of the White Wake set out to find the Admiralty Vault ship.

Surprise? Unfortunately, we weren't able to record because Nathanael and Michael are still dealing with some ripples of moving and new babies. But instead of having just a dead week, Ben took it upon himself to record a conversation with a very special guest. We have locked in some time soon to play and record, so hopefully we will be able to bank some episodes and not have this happen again. At least not without some planning and announcements beforehand.Thanks for being patient everyone, and we hope you enjoy this slightly different Across the Table, After the Fact.
