So next Thursday, Araman is back! We've had a LOT of story threads introduced in the first arcs of C4, and I'm curious which ones other folks are interested in seeing where they go.

Mine include (in no particular order):

• Whether the Seekers are able to recover the three gnomish warrior statues from the Tachonis during their jaunt north
• Where exactly Alogar ended up
• Zebani's grudge against Wick, especially in terms of Armas
• Occtis' connection with Dame Seremai
• Are we gonna get introduced to Primus' other children (we've got Koral, Petra, Ryah, SOMEONE, Frons, Ethrand, SOMEONE, Occtis), and what role(s) are THEY playing in all this?
• Would the Einfasen go so far as to 'manufacture' proof that Azune is an Einfasen as a further incentive for him to serve their House?

What about y'all?

I wasn't able to find a direct description of her (at least not on first try), but does she actually have the same filament tattoos as Wick? Because I'm wondering if that's just one more source of antagonism between her and her brother, that he was gifted the tattoos and she wasn't. It'd be even more a slap in the face considering it's her job to monitor the basement.

(We know that Lioran doesn't have his yet, but he's probably too young.)

We've got a trailer for Age of Umbra: Sallowlands!

And because this is me, I had to ID the music - it's "Wildhunt" by Aaron Albert Srdoc -- https://open.spotify.com/track/5S6JqfDRyEgdk14ALRsEZr?si=6b9086bedc2944e3

Apparently Brennan was not kidding about "kissing" being one of the five pillars of this campaign, and the cast commentary on this is hilarious. 😃 (THIS IS AN OFFICIAL VID, THIS IS NOT A FAN THING.)

I'm curious about something -- I know that Liam has a very strong theatre background. In that moment >!during the play where Volkat first notices Hal and asks, "What's going on?"!<, Liam makes these wordless gestures that remind me a LOT of the mimes/gestures used during ballet performances to convey intent/dialogue without speaking.

Is that what Liam is doing here? And if so, what exactly is he 'saying'?

TIA!

So in Episode 26, after Occtis says his goodbyes to Dr. Talter (and Alex rolls a Nat 1 on his Insight check), Brennan drops this gem:

>Brennan: Not for the first time in his life, Occtis Tachonis lets a woman with a crush on him walk out of the room.

My question is... who was/were the other(s)? The only candidates I can think of are Lady Ingrid (maybe? did she know it was him?), Shadia (MAYBE?), and Lady Aranessa (WHICH WOULD BE A SCREAM IF JULIEN FINDS OUT).)

We've now got the Previously On... for our Schemers!

(And yes, I ID'd all the music and it is now on the Campaign 4 production music playlist.)

Per the Beacon newsletter:

>This Thursday is the last episode in the Schemers arc, which means Campaign 4 takes next week off before the story picks back up. In the meantime, keep an eye out for a new Tale Gate and a Beacon-exclusive Night Cap!
When we return, the fated conspirators converge. The Soldiers, Seekers, and Schemers reunite in Dol-Makjar as their saga reaches its first crescendo starting May 21st.
