Episode Recap
Under the cover of darkest night, the Coven of Zul and their allies within Aryamza sought to launch a devastating ambush against the Mortal Guardians, but they were outmaneuvered—and the Guardians were able to unleash a decisive and fateful counterattack! As the coven loosed their magical assault upon the emptied headquarters of House Talmirra, the Guardians waited in the shadows and charged their enemies from the flanks to overwhelming effect.
After routing the coven and the soldiers of House Ghasrali, the Guardians pursued them all throughout the city and up to the very gates of the heavily guarded Ghasrali estate. Blocked by superior numbers in a fortified defensive position, the guardians then turned to their friend and colleague, Sybaari of House Qavirah, who led the heroes in a secret infiltration of the mansion—allowing them to take many of its defenders by surprise! In a coordinated final assault, Khadlarra sent the Mortal Guardians troops against the outer gates while the heroes attacked the leadership from within—and the coven’s forces crumbled to dust!
But, all was not as well as perhaps could have been: for Yazahd, the coven’s enigmatic and evasive operative in Aryamza, escaped once more—taking with him a newly revealed traitor: Sybaari’s own sister!
