Well-dressed and ready to please, the Dodos meet some old and new faces as they begin their tenure here in Algenubi. Try as they might to lose themselves in their work, however, the past comes back to haunt us ever still.

Hello there! Back for more? I'll bet you are. Let me flip these hotdogs I am currently cooking in this here brick fireplace in my office.
Now where did I leave off? I didn't have a bookmark so I just bent the page in half so I wouldn't lose my spot. "Use your resources," I always say!
The story goes a little off the rails at this point but don't worry, they'll turn it around at the end. There's even some combat! Though not really enough to show off any of those fresh rules we talked about at the beginning. Oh well. "Them's the breaks," I always say!
DJ achieves a hat trick. Kinsey gains a following. Mae competes in a duel.

Hello there! Welcome to my office. Come on in, grab a seat, and sit down. Let me just stoke this fire here that is my brick fireplace.
What's that, you ask? You've finished Season 1 and pine for Season 2? Well, I'm afraid you'll have to wait just a little longer, dear listener. The cooks are in the kitchen cooking up a fresh batch of Dodoborne just for you!
But never fear! Let me reach up and pull down this here dusty, musty tome and tell you of a different adventure. One steeped in the history of past strife. It's even during the Spring Solstice! How topical!
DJ hits 'em with a lullaby. Kinsey gets a feather. Mae is surrounded by idiots.

The Apple Festival was so packed we had to split it in twain! Our dodo's are taking a bit of a break from patrolling the festival to enjoy a bit of cider and games. Amidst the merriment, however, tensions grow and boil to a head. Unspoken secrets come out, threatening to tear our dodo team apart!
Little do they know, dangerous forces are at work behind the scenes. What is coming? When is it happening? And most importantly, where in the circles below is Azh!? We haven't seen him for like 10 episodes!
Crank enforces some boundaries. Pistachio has a drink. Kapi faces the music.

Welcome to the Brackenroad Apple Festival! We are so thrilled to have you! Although our Apples are all year round, the festival is the most exciting part of our season!
What's so great about apples you ask? The apple has been called the loveliest of all fruits. It is also one of the most important agricultural crops grown in the Algenubi Province, and has been a part of the province's culture and heritage for nearly 250 years. Algenubi is the largest producer of apples in Voldaen, and Brackenroad accounts for 80% of the province's crops. Needless to say, we're crazy about apples, and want to celebrate them with you!
Visit our nearly 40 acres of orchards and pick your own apples! Take some seeds and plant your own! Though I can't promise they aren't magic beans; nor can I promise that your apples will be as good as here. The soil is just different here, blessed by Sage itself they say!
Visit our many food vendors! Want some fresh milk from a haggard cow named Milky White? Want some bread to give to your poor old granny in the woods? How about some ash-free lentils? All that can be found here! I'll even throw a sticky bun in there for you.
Visit our fantastic games. You'll find classics such as Applejacks, Appletoss, Appletiles, and more! We're thrilled to announce the release of a new game this year: Apple Daggerheart! We've got a volunteer with an apple in front of their chest, and we've got a set of three throwing knives here. I'm sure you can figure the rest out. Just launch it as hard as you can! Don't worry, they're wearing armor. See how high of a score you can hit!

Dear diary,
Pistachio here! (in case you forgot) with another entry about what i did today!! :•)
Kapi let me and Crank work together which I think was much needed after the last time we were on a mission together..... :•| Needless to say this went so much better this time. No more squashes hahaha :•D .... :'•(
We touched base with Evelyn and Tobias about the idea of them being our eyes and ears on the town. They were scratching their whiskers at first, but with a little extra cheddar (;•D) they came to an a"brie"ment (;•DD) that was "Gouda" (;•DDD) for everyone involved.
We dropped in on C- Mom who changed her name again. I feel like she expects everyone to know her only as "librarian" so she uses that to mess with people. This time it was Rosette, last time it was Roseanne? What's it gonna be tomorrow? :•O I can wait to find out! :•D
We found out a LOT MORE about peoples types than I was expecting. :•S I wonder if C-Mom would be interested in Cyrus since she likes beards so much? :•/
Anyway!!!!! :•$
Can't wait to write you tomorrow!! :•D
Love, Pistachio
SCENE: Kapi struts in with sass and begins singing to Pistachio and Crank.
“I never thought dodo’s essential They're crude and simple and plain But maybe they've a glimmer of potential If allied to my vision and brain”
“I know that your powers of retention Are as wet as a boaear’s backside But thick as you are, pay attention My words are a matter of pride”
“It's clear from your vacant expressions The lights are not all on upstairs But we're talking recommendations Even YOU can't be caught unawares”
“So prepare for a chance of a lifetime Be prepared for a festival crime. A shining new era Is shuffling nearer And where do we feature? Just listen to teacher I know it sounds sordid But you'll be rewarded”
"And Cyrus deliciously squared."
"BE PREPARED."
Isaac gives a devilish laugh and sashay's away.
Crank gets a taste of doing magic. Kapi gets laid. Tune in next week to hear what Pistachio does!
Despite all his rage he was still just a guy in a cave. Someone will say what is lost can never be saved. Despite all his rage he forgot that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In a Cell, and plummeted 16 feet through an announcer's table.
Crank hits a vase with a savage elbow drop. Kapi learns way too much about Mayor Raisins. Pistachio is forever changed.

That right there is the library. Now let's talk about the library. Can we talk about the library, please, Crank? I've been dying to talk about the library with you all day, OK? "Azh," this name keeps coming up over and over again. Every day Azh’s name is getting sent back to me. Azh! Azh! I look in the town, and this whole place is Azh! So I say to myself, "I gotta find this guy! I gotta go up to his office and put an apple in the guy's gods darn hands! Otherwise, he's never going to get it and he's going to keep coming back down here." So I go up to Azh’s office and what do I find out, Pistachio? What do I find out?! There is no Azh. The man does not exist, okay? So I decide, "Oh shoot, buddy, I gotta dig a little deeper." There's no Azh? You gotta be kidding me! I got boxes full of Azh! All right. So I start marchin' my way down to Roseanne in the library and I knock on her door and I say, "Roseanne! Roseanne! I gotta talk to you about Azh." And when I open the door what do I find? There's not a single desk in that office! There...is...no...Roseanne in the Library. Crank, half the people in this town have been made up. This town is a gods dang ghost town.
Pistachio uses their sniffer. Crank gets some bad news. Kapi meets an old nemesis.
Editor’s Note: The campaign is playing the current version of Daggerheart Beta 1.5
Our heroes, who are currently recovering from the incredible and well-written twist at the end of the last episode, must determine what to do next. The very fate of the town and their friendships depend on it! Will they be able to stop the oncoming threat, or will a clearly-not-made-up-on-the-spot-due-to-a-dice-roll monster be their doom?
Crank's library visits pay off. Pistachio learns they aren't actually a dodo. Kapi throws a pastry.
Editor’s Note: The campaign is playing the current version of Daggerheart Beta 1.5
There once lived a man named Percival,
Whose humor was sharp and surgical.
He’d spin all around Fly up off the ground,
And forget what he’s doing.
Kapi gets one up on his opps. Pistachio speaks to the local wildlife. Crank is NOT having it.
Editor’s Note: The campaign is playing the current version of Daggerheart Beta 1.5
The party splits up! A GM’s worst nightmare! What will I (Isaac Allen Burns) do? Stay tuned as one group goes and consoles a depressed friend while the other starts accusing everyone of being IN on SOMETHING. If we’re not careful, we’ll be mummified in red strings and sharpie notes.
Kapi goes full pepe silvia. Crank handles other people’s big emotions. Pistachio is scandalized.
Editor’s Note: The campaign is playing the current version of Daggerheart Beta 1.5
Our gang just took down a dangerous monster threatening Pistachio's family, and following it is an aftermath that NO ONE saw coming. Shocking secrets are revealed as family tensions reach a boiling point that will have EVERYONE talking. Meanwhile, Kapi turns up the charm on a Real Housewife of Brackenroad that will leave jaws on the floor. You DON'T want to miss this.
Crank learns about farming. Kapi flirts with Pistachio's mom. Pistachio has some hard conversations.
Editor’s Note: The campaign is playing the current version of Daggerheart Beta 1.5
Danger arrives on Pistachio’s doorstep! Even after a long day for our heroes, the fun never lets up! Will they be able to stop the vicious attack, or will we be adding boiled nuts to the menu!
Pistachio proves their bravery. Crank goes on the offensive. Kapi tries his best.
