Hello, Everyone!
I think this will be the second-to-last filler update for now. I'm soon coming back to the story!
It's not much - only some background stuff from Arc 4 (the Necklace of Fireballs Bruno used against the Sea Monster, and the wardrobe... which, strangely enough, was kinda the key to the False Hydra mystery).
I hope you like them!
See you next time!
Take care and be well!
(Also, here's a link to the Chapter Guide, the Glossaries (Part 1 and Part 2)
and the Map for the series. You're welcome!)
An important disclaimer: Mary Windfiddle's story is my notes from a D&D game turned into a narrative. All the worldbuilding and NPC encounters belong to our DM, and all the actions of the other main characters (Aurum, Bruno and Agatha) belong to my co-players. My contribution to the story is only everything Mary-related (actions, reactions, inner thoughts), as well as the writing itself.
It occurs to me that a necklace like that could make an awesome Christmas present for someone who plays D&D.
A silver necklace with a bunch of empty chains and a single ruby bead. In a box with a card that says "You have one fireball left. If you need to use it, call the phone number below and I will arrive as quickly as possible with a Molotov cocktail in my hand." 😁

Woah, that sounds so cool! XD
We usually give our D&D friends item cards with every real-life present that we give them (e.g. the bluetooth earbuds were 'stones of far speech', a baby cam was an 'unlimited scrying', etc).
This one is from a car phone holder:
Our group does that ! We all take it in turns being DM, but they always try to fix it so that my turn comes up at Christmas.
That's because I've got a long-standing tradition (probably been doing it about 40 years now...) that if I'm running an adventure at Christmas time a grubby, incredibly bad-tempered gnome turns up dressed as one of Santa's Helpers and gives out notes with details of presents for each character. I try to make them highly personalised, as well as mildly humorous and (if possible) slightly embarrassing.
I wrote a Hive post a few years ago with a few examples... https://peakd.com/hive-191038/@alonicus/worldbuilding-prompt-323-exotic-gifts
I love that!
Sounds like bundles of fun 😁
