After escaping the collapsing ruins beneath the Broken Circle, the party emerges with something far more dangerous than they expected: a swirling white orb, pulsing with silver light. Holden’s vision of chained gods and a void-born entity still haunts him, and now the group must decide—trust the scholars of Glen, or keep the orb hidden from prying eyes?

In this lore-heavy yet heartfelt episode of Twenty Sides: The Nexus, the party:

• Debates what to do with the orb and whether to trust Professor Giles
• Hides the artifact in Dail’s shed… for now
• Shares Holden’s vision of gods, chains, and the breaking seal—“The first is broken. Six remain.”
• Experiments with the orb, watching Dail’s sword glow with divine etchings and feeling magic pulse around them stronger than ever
• Enjoys a halfling homecoming, complete with carrot stew, family hugs, and talk of what comes next
• Levels up to Level 5, ready to face even greater threats

The orb may be tied to Glen’s time distortion—and possibly to the fading of magic itself. With Silverport and the Archive of Ash and Echoes on the horizon, the party must decide if they are keepers of this secret… or pawns in a much larger war.
