In relation to the events of the session, we chat about thief retainers taken from us too soon, dastardly treasure traps, delving too deep, bipedal murder cows, Anwir's arcane power, always playing with a stacked deck, and the art of narrating tactical positioning! In relation to the events of the session, we chat about the massive scope of Arden Vul, how Jon navigates the adventure on the fly, the evolution of Jon's refereeing style over the years, and Richard Barton's design intentions with this seminal megadungeon!
