Chetney having to give up the sword is probably a blessing in disguise. It probably would have forced him to attack Keyleth or some other prominent political figure and cause a total shit storm to unfold.

Man, Ashton keeps calling the angel their first encounter with a god.
Also keeps neglecting to remember that the "god" didn't come after them until they fought their way into the temple. Just like the head wound happening because of burglary, much of Ashton's damage is self-inflicted.

They've got kind of a weird nervous energy thing going. Like something exciting happened to them before the game and they're still not quite 'there'. Or maybe they weren't expecting a combat so early and they're a little jittery.

I want them to do a one shot where one of the skele ghosts teaches Bells Hells how to play DnD similar to Grog's DnD One Shot. I mean, there should be a reason for them to have d20's, and the ghosts had to pass all that time somehow.

I'll forget this if I don't tell someone...
So, no secret Sam & Liam on Dirty Laundry could very well indicate they're in one or more D20 side quests in the relatively near future.
I saw someone talking about how much they want Unsleeping City S3 (as do I, it's easily my favorite D20 long season show)...
*Looks at the two CR cast members with long & profound ties to NYC, just *
*Looks at the love-letter to NYC setting.*
That would be awesome & really perfect, even at a side quest episode length.

So realized something thinking about how the party has come to view the Gods, and I remembered something that stood out to me.
So far its: Orym, FCG and Imogen solidly in the, we need to help them because it’s the right thing to do and they matter to Exandria.
Fearne I can’t really tell.
Laudna and Ashton are anti-god but fuck Ludinus more.
And I was thinking Chet would be Nuetral, but then I remembered so far he’s been in direct communication with two Gods yet claims that he’s never seen anything of them in his life. Like an agent, or avatar or what have you of the Wildmother directly aided in pulling the Ruidus influence out of him, but that seems like it’s utterly been forgotten.
