Diligence was built hundreds of years ago and got rich off selling iron ore fished from the mire.
When mining became commonplace, Diligence was abandoned.
Rotunda's castle is in the middle of the city, and most of the houses have long since rotten away into husks.
The old population, traditionally buried in the swamp that gave life to the city, has now awakened and gone back to living in it. The young witches say Rotunda intends to turn them into obedient undead soldiers.

He is working in his smithy nearby. Or, what remains of it.

Most of it has long since rusted to hell and back, but his works all have a distinctive shape. Possibly born from needing to compensate for the natural flaws of the material.
I was a smith… all my life.

Go ask the ore fishers by the dock if you want their tips

He digs around his boxes, looking for his oils and hammers

Nothing here is usable in combat any more. It might have been great 300 years ago, but not any more.

A couple of workers in think leather trousers and boots are loading up ropes, rakes, hooks and buckets into a small boat

Yes, Starburst helped him light it earlier.
The smith is an old, mummified corpse. The entire town is a rotten ruin.
>>480484
I… do not know… how wands work… But lets… try…
This makes your wand a Great Weapon.
>>480486
>>480482
A boat? Well, plenty to pick from… The others must be… lazing off.
Can't blame them… look at the waves… There is a Bog Beast not far from here.

There is an inn, and the docks. Aside from that it's mostly residential houses and stuff that so badly rotten it's impossible to tell.
There is clearly someone living in the castle at the center of the island, and that was also confirmed by the witches - Rotunda is here.
>>480494
It seemed… more interested in eating us… than talking…
>>480495
They… sometimes chased… those they got a nibble off of… onto land… but we… always fought them off… before they got too far…

The inn is looking surprisingly good compared to most of the places here. Must have been well built. Or possibly just resistant to mold.
Inside you can hear some music.
>>480508
At your own risk.
A zombie is playing the piano in here. A few ladies are pouring drinks.
What must be the innkeeper is paging through his books.

You are… actually going… to fight it?

Water costs the same as the wine.
>>480523
It's… well aged.
Then, they say this stuff improves with age.
There's a good gal. The witch, Rotunda, well she was the wife of a noble once. And then went on to outlive him massively.
I should know. I'm a noble too. Well, used to be.
>>480522
If you must… take that boat.
It belongs… to Fergus. Fergus… is a dick.

Still lives in the castle for all I know. Still doing her little magic tricks probably too.
>>480539
>>480541
You make it to the part of the mire where the heaving patterns were without rousing the beast.
There are some spears in the boat if you want to stab at it.

Frost and Maya are drinking at the inn
>>480545
Probably.
As for me, well, I kinda lost my fortune to my useless son's habits. So I took what I had left and bought a curse off a witch, so that all the sons he had, and their sons and sons sons would all be just like me. Ha.
Then I came here and opened an inn. Been here ever since.

I need to hire a new maid… the place is filthy.

You can hear the swamp resonate with your growing song. The water heaves.

Big fan of magic. And supposedly she also had other family but that was none of anyone's business.

As the beast raises, I will bow deeply.
"Creature of the bog, we saw the signs of your mighty hunt.
But for all your greatness, you fail to grasp that your hunt will be your undoing.
You are not going after the animal like the bird goes after the worm, but you have decided to prey on Man, and Man is wicked and evil and dangerous.
This hunt will make you all the same."

Everyone is in Diligence, scouting out the situation.
Red and Madaela are out in the mire on a boat.

And half a crown for the rag.
>>480582
>>480584
>>480588
You can see it smash apart some of the docks as it heaves itself out of the mire.
The thing is HUGE. Not unlike a muck-covered killer whale with legs.

Your song gives a lovely emphasis to the carnage as the best smashes the ruined houses near the dividing line between the outer and inner towns and crushes several of the undead on the other side.

The undead in the Inner Town are the aggressive kind. Several seem mutated. The effects of Rotunda's magic must be much more powerful here…

As you pop the lid on your jar of flies, you hear what could best be described as fleshy explosion.
Looking at the castle gates, the Bog Beast has been splattered across the gate, gatehouse wall, nearby fountain and bushes and up a few trees.
In the torn open remains, the Hand Creature busily examines what new and fascinating pieces of gore it finds inside.
On the positive side, there are no more zombies nearby.

Seeing as you are low on cures, wounded, and feeling ill, you decide to leave the hand creature alone for now, swearing revenge.
You fall back through the Outer Town, bringing news of what is happening.
After crossing the mire safely on an ore boat, you return to Privilege.
Mordstein says his research is advancing rapidly. It should be done in less than 12 hours. Possibly much less.
The witches seem to have at least gotten some food and sleep.
The scouts report that the mire has calmed down a lot and no new massive beasts have been seen in the Zone.
You can now take a quick rest and remove 1d10 infection each for free.
Everyone is available for talking.
Once you are #READY you will be returned to Diligence armed with 10 Grenades, Strong Cures, Weak Cures, full Hits and +1 Wound

"It is done. A perfect counterspell to the plague, as well as a medical cure for the symptoms. Powerful enough to purge anything of infection and return them to normal.
I will give the first batch to you, and begin making more for the general population. Go now, and finish off the source - kill Rotunda!"
In Diligence, you are met with curious looks.
But many of the townsfolk also gather to greet you
Welcome back…
…we… reflected on what you… said…
…if you wish… we will… help you lay siege… to the castle.

"It is done. A perfect counterspell to the plague, as well as a medical cure for the symptoms. Powerful enough to purge anything of infection and return them to normal.
I will give the first batch to you, and begin making more for the general population. Go now, and finish off the source - kill Rotunda!"
In Diligence, you are met with curious looks.
But many of the townsfolk also gather to greet you
Welcome back…
…we… reflected on what you… said…
…if you wish… we will… help you lay siege… to the castle.

Then…. lead the way…
Diligence Keep.
Old but agelessly sturdy. Unlike the other buildings of Diligence, it has suffered little over the centuries. Indeed the mold and cobwebs seem to be entirely decorative.
Old paintings and tapestries also occupy the walls.
The citizens of Diligence barricade the front gates.
We will stand guard here, and kill any of the mutated ones who would seek to flank you. Find Rotunda.
There are three ways to go here. To the left and right lie doors that probably lead to servant quarters, and to the front a larger door that leads to a main hall.
One of the undead gives you a map
I was among those who built this place. I do not know all its secrets… but I know the layout. So I made… this.

"Name's Daniel, but you can call me Daniel the Witch Hunter Hunter. Has a nice ring to it, don't you think?"

"The other two towers were mostly for learning material - both theoretical and practical. The Librarian kept the library neat, while we often had the successful experiments clean up the failed ones."

The citizens of Diligence have secured the front gates, and are keeping the zombies out. Your task is to get the pieces of the key that unlocks Rotunda's lair.

"You're right about that… to a degree."

You notice Red lags behind as he goes check out the bedroom.
The dining hall is well furnished. Quite nice really, considering how much of the castle seems a bit rotten and uncared for. A thick layer of dust on the table and chairs confirms nobody eats here. The place is just for show.
There is a small double door on the far end. It probably leads to the kitchen.
You may go there or look around.
>>485868
The young witches unlock the bedroom door.
There is a heavy curtain going across the room, blocking sight to that half from the door. It smells a lot cleaner in here than in the other rooms.

There are many long shadows to creep in. You will not be seen until you yourself will it.
>>485881
This entire room is almost like from another building, or at least another age. The decor is in far better condition than the rest of the keep, and looks valuable. There are also paintings of various people, mostly of a man and a woman. While he is tall and quite strong looking, she is very fat, and looks quite short next to him.
Perhaps this is Rotunda and her husband of old…

So much for the nice clean atmosphere. It smells terrible in here. Rotten food everywhere in great weeping heaps. Meat hanging off hooks, crawling with maggots. And a steady hacking sound almost as rhythmic as a heartbeat crowns the eerie feel of this place.

They look at eachother with a bit of unease, but then nod and walk past the curtain

You turn a few corners and find… it.
A massive fleshy hulk steadily chopping away at a huge slab of meat. Its folds of fat rippling with every impact, and its giant, muscular arms waving a man-sized cleaver with ease.
>>485899
The air on the other side of the curtain smells still, but fresh. The haze of the plague doesn't hang in the air either.
"We did some work here on our own"
"Sealed this part of the room up best we could, so it was safe from any airborne diseases."
"…so we could sleep better."
It seems they also had pushed their beds together. Or, well, if you can call those beds.

There are several meat hooks on the ceiling and various racks of cooking implements around the kitchen.
There is also a great fireplace, which looks like it could be lit.
You can also see a door into the basement.
>>485915
They take a glance at the trunk
"Can you give us a minute?"
"We need to check one thing just in case."

The basement seem to dry up the further in you go. It also gets colder.
It is quite dark in here too, with no light sources beyond the kitchen door and some unlit lanterns.
There are many crates and barrels down here.

They go back to rummaging in the trunk and whisper something to eachother.

Starburst and Tityroi snuck past the monstrous chef in the kitchen and went to scout out the basement.
Red and the witches went to get their old wards from the bedroom.
>>485940
As you sit in the darkness
>>485938
A loud grunt and squeal shatters the silence of the basement, and what seems to be a sickly, if fat, swamp boar slams into you.
A rusty chain on its neck implies it was supposed to be dinner later.
The chef seems to have heard it too, as the humping of his cleaver stopped.

You poke your head in past the heavy curtain set up in the bedroom and smell the fresh air.
It seems the young witches made this part of the room somewhat airtight. There is no sign of the plague here.
The two are shuffling around by a large trunk, probably looking for something in it.
>>485948
You pull her into the shadows as the chef lumbers down into the basement and spots the boar.
Shut up.
In a single strike he cleaves the large pig in half and drags one of the halves back to the kitchen.
>>485951
They both freeze up
"Y-you were listening?"
"Ehehe… it wasn't… uh…"
"…uh… yeah… we won't run."
"Honest."

The paintings show both of them in very nice, well kept clothes. They were also painted in this room. The decor on the walls is the same as it was at the time of painting.

"And financed by one of its most important citizens, who made this place what it was."
"Rotunda later did some changes to make it better suit her needs."
>>486010
As you open the kitchen door you are met with a wall of rotting air. Piles of unspeakable maggot-infested meat, moldy vegetables and unidentifiable sludge cover nearly every surface of the kitchen.
Heavy dripping slabs of flesh hang from rusty hooks from the ceiling and the floor is slippery from various guts, fat, blood and who knows what else.
A steady thumping noise can be heard further in, like a beating heart somewhere inside this meaty chamber…

You can see a massive corpulent hulk slowly come into view behind the meat racks and tables. He is massively fat, with arms as thing as a man's chest, wielding a meat cleaver as tall as you are. It is impossible to say where the multitude of chins ends and the jaw or belly begins. Or where the eyes even are. But it clearly knows what is is doing.
"Please call if you need it"
"We won't be of much use against that brute, or the librarian…"

You enter the kitchen. It is slick and slippery with guts, blood and fat from floor to ceiling. Piles of rotting, maggot infested meat are piled on every surface.
A massive, fat beast with arms as thick as your torso is hacking apart what seems to be a whole cow. He must be the chef…
Behind him is the door to the basement, where you heard Tityroi and Starburst went.

Your flip gets you of of the cleaver's reach as you hit your attack on his rotten teeth
>>486372
You duck under his blade and punch him in the gut. It's hard to tell if that did anything, given the amount of blubber…
>>486373
Your bolt rips off several of his chins!
>>486374
He grabs a meat hook and throws it at you. Luckily it lands blunt side first and only bruises you.
>>486379
You slash his arm, spilling blood and… whatever the hell that rest is… on the floor.
>>486382
The meat hook that hit Coltstein also smacks you, but at least the gas from the grenade melts away parts of the Chef.

"It might be possible to find some items for further plague proofing spells in there too."
"We just need some books from the Library to be sure how to use them correctly."
You have 2 unused Weak Wards. Anyone can take them.

The smell of herbs grows stronger as you go deeper in.
"The tower is right behind this door."
"The key is made up of four parts. We aren't sure where it's kept in here, but we've seen it before when Rotunda assembled it."
"The full thing is roughly the size of a dinner plate, made up of four interlocking teardrop shapes."

This tower is a bit bigger than the last. However most of the floor is missing. Or, well, would be. There is a huge pile of random junk, old furniture, odds and ends and construction material all heaped in the hole. It must reach down all the way to the tower basement.
On the far side, you can see the stairs to the upper parts.
Looks like lots of legos to step on and table edges stalking your knees.
Traversing the junk pit safely is MIN6

You enter the staircase hallway.
…and encounter some good news and bad news.
The good news is, you will not need to worry about the stair guards. Because they have been splattered across the walls in a rather artistic display of gore.
The bad news is, Handy is the one who did it. And he is still there, admiring the new parts he assimilated from the guards.
He seems bigger than before. More bloated.
He now has several sets of legs and a mass of arms wildly flailing on his back. Three heads turn to look at you. Two of them without eyes, the third without a mouth.
It slowly turns itself to face you entirely, arms reaching out to grasp some nearby pillars.

Pause here or keep going?
It growls at you
>>487838
>>487838
From… this… prison…. of… flesh…
>>487840
Thinking quickly, you throw the lantern at some flammable looking woodwork and pull an Elemental out of the resulting blaze
>>487841
You hide among the pillars of the room
>>487842
You blast open the left head.
It flops down but soon looks back up again
Time… to… die…

In what becomes a blur of chaos, several of you are sent flying, crushed underfoot, punched silly or tossed around, but at the end as Haste wears off, it seems the hand monster is down.
…but its corpse still pulses. Parts falling off and flesh tightening. Repairing. Regenerating.
It might be best to try and recover while you can

You blast the pulsating remains of the beast, rending away flesh and bone, until it finally breaks its bonds and stands up again. It has now shed most of the countless limbs it had before. Without their weight it stands much more upright and tall, its heads looking around. Its belly and chest bulge horribly as if it were pregnant with a grown man. Its flesh knits itself back into shape before your eyes and its remaining limbs twitch with barely contained life.

You manage to clearly wound it, making its huge gut convulse.
However, it quickly stands back up, its flesh closing over the wounds, but also thinning in the process.
It then grabs Danner by the throat with a spare arm
