Episode 120: The Red End

Bell’s Hells, after trekking deep into the depths of the red moon of ill omen, Ruidus, you found yourself at the very core. After sending Ludinus’ form scattering into some oily bubbling substance, you stepped into the central chamber, where the two Ruidusborn accepted a meeting. As you watched it swell and grow to a monstrous size, and begin to step towards its exit, you all rallied around this terrifying entity. Trying to beseech your friend who seemed beyond your reach as Imogen (somewhere within the consciousness of Predathos) sought to engage with the shreds that remain of the two gods it once swallowed and forgot in history. As you battled it, trying to peel back its hardened carapace (and the blue-green crystals that armor its torso and body) you began to see opportunities to reach for your friend where you managed to free one of the two lost entities.
In a moment of crisis and panic, Laudna placed the (bequeathed) legendary mask of The Matron upon her face, discovered it was a fake (crafted by one of her own companions, Braius) and through some rapid fenagling with your terrifying Form of Dread you placed your face into it and briefly transported the consciousness of you and the rest of your troop into the Matron’s realm to have a discussion with her. There in that stretched moment of time, you came up with a very curious possibility on how to deal with the current Predathos-God situation on Exandria. After expressing this possibility in a bit of banter, your moment came to a close and you had to choose two from a number of boons that the Matron could provide.
As you stepped back out of her realm and into your conscious selves back here on the moon, you chose the recovery of some of the arcane knowledge that your group had expended as well as a brief swell of lively experience (temporarily gaining two levels from 15 to 17). Finishing destroying this entity (as it crumbled, it’s form shattering across the room in innumerable shards of broken Ruidian glass) you had a moment to breathe in the silence and process what had happened before the room itself began to shake. As (erupting from across the chamber) a massive kaiju-head Predathos (currently furious) began to burst through the ground where two of its massive claws reached out to claim vengeance and possibly reclaim its vessel. To ride out and beyond, to feast upon the quaking gods beyond the divine gate.
As these massive claws come streaking through the air (their fingers reaching, the scythe-like claws cracking in the air as it expands),

the gargantuan crested head of Predathos roars.
It’s mouth lighting up with a bright glowing-blue light, and you see a flicker of black energy inside that seems to pulse.
