Episode 115: To the Arx Creonum
After an interlude following the legendary troop known as Vox Machina (as they were one of the groups helming the assault on the Malleus Key), they managed to destroy the Key and free the arcane lock that keps Ruidus essentially clued in orbit to Exandria (and possibly tearing apart the very fabric of magic in the world) as well as freeing their ghost of a long-lost ally, Vax'ildan, and in the wake of that battle, given an evening reprieve on what could be the last evening on Exandria for some or all.
While they were gone and dealing with this assault, back on Ruidus, the two troops, Mighty Nein and Bell's Hells, have been lying in wait after notifying that they were in place and the assault was to begin.
Going a little bit back in time to their perspective, we return to moments after they had given the order to begin the assault where they now wait for word back that the distraction has begun and they can begin their business. So here, underneath the surface of the red moon Ruidus in the subterranean half of the capital city of Kreviris (Vaterra Krevirirs, the massive, winding city of strange, twisted, rock-carved streets) the city that now seems partially abandoned by the populace that is preparing for a relocation to Exandria at the promise of the Weave Mind to see a new life ahead. Many have left already and currently walk as a massive caravan to the Bloody Bridge, (that may not await them when they arrive) while others are still gathering their final supplies. Here, civilians still cluttering the streets, heading towards the exits towards the surface to join the rest of the populace (where other stragglers might still remain to keep their homes here).
Bell's Hells and Mighty Nein, you have been keeping low after making contact with Gaz Tomo (a member of the Volition). Those that still remain are apparently plotting an attack on the Arx Creonum (the massive citadel stronghold that is the home to the Weave Mind) affixed along the Prime Pillar of glass built out of the ancient remnants of Predathos' original form. Here, laying low in this b-side chamber, you have some time to prepare, discuss, and plot before you are given the 'go-ahead' from Allura that the assault has engaged below, and you are free to pursue your individual options.
