Saving Throw Society

Welcome, dear contestants, cherished viewers, and legally distinct observers, to Knead to Know Basis, the Fey Wilds’ premier culinary program where the recipes are questionable, the ingredients are enchanted, and the consequences of a poorly risen loaf can be catastrophic.
 
Hosted by the incomparable Host, this is not your grandmother’s cooking show. Unless, of course, your grandmother was an ancient Archfey with a penchant for culinary experimentation and a deeply concerning understanding of human anatomy.

A paranormal true-crime podcast crew travels deep into the Alaskan wilderness to investigate an abandoned settlement swallowed by fog, forest, and decades of unanswered questions. Their search was supposed to become their next episode.
Instead, the broadcast ends without warning.
Now, a new group enters the ruins to discover what happened; and why the deeper they travel, the harder it becomes to remember the people standing beside them.

As the courts of the Feywild gather beneath dim skies to mourn the loss of Thelorin, echoes of the past begin to surface. Flashbacks to Zeb’s childhood reveal quiet moments and hard-earned lessons from someone who saw potential in him long before he could see it in himself. Years later, those memories return at a time when questions of identity, purpose, and family weigh heavier than ever.
But even in mourning, the Feywild cannot remain still for long. Familiar faces arrive bearing uneasy comfort, old powers stir at the edges of the ceremony, and gifts are offered that may carry more meaning than anyone realizes. As tensions rise within the Twilight Court, the line between remembrance and reckoning begins to blur.
And when a lurking threat emerges from beyond the trees, grief gives way to chaos, forcing the party to stand together against something that refuses to stay buried.
