C3 - Ep24: The Shadow Behind Them

June 1, 2026 · 34 min

Show notes

Norvale is behind them—but something is still following.

After uncovering the truth beneath the chapel crypt and surviving another terrifying night in the ruined town, Annabel, Quinn, Miller, and Thelandor begin the long journey back toward the outpost. The pale blue ash covering the graveyard still lingers in their minds. Quinn’s glowing staff raises more questions than answers. And the silence in the wilderness feels heavier than ever. 🌑❄️

Then they notice it.

Something—or someone—is tracking them through the woods. 👁️🌲

The party immediately shifts into survival mode. Annabel and Quinn break off from the group, circling back through the forest in an attempt to hunt the stalker before it can disappear again. Roo vanishes invisibly into the trees while Annabel moves like a ghost through the wilderness, quickly disappearing from sight entirely. ⚔️🐺

Meanwhile, Miller and Thelandor remain behind, watching the woods carefully as tension tightens around the group. Every snapped branch feels deliberate. Every shadow between the trees feels alive.

Because Crownfall is teaching them a dangerous lesson:

The gnolls are not the only things moving in the wilds anymore.

👑 The deeper the party travels into this broken world, the clearer it becomes—something is watching them back.
