In this episode of Nat 20 & Unwind, we decompress after The Unwritten Favor.

We talk through Nyros, the reveal of The Unwritten, and why this session hit harder than a normal combat night. We unpack the moral pressure, the Syndicate reactions, and how forcing truth without giving guidance changes the table dynamic.

We also discuss player reactions, hard choices, and what it means when a campaign stops asking what is right and starts asking what you are willing to carry.

And Zebulon may or not lose money for his tavern, The Whisperfang...

In The Unwritten Favor, the party enters the Frostline Watchtower and comes face to face with Nyros.

A new faction is revealed, and they believe memory should never be owned, erased, or hoarded. Truth must be spoken. Once faced, it should be allowed to rest.

Nyros offers a bargain tied to truth and consequence. The party must decide how far they are willing to go once a confession is complete and silence is no longer an option.

This episode focuses on tension, authority, and responsibility. No clear villains. No clean victories. Only choices that leave marks.

What happens after the truth is spoken matters more than the truth itself.

After a tense return to the table, Nat 20 and Unwind breaks down everything that went wrong at Pyreheart and everything that followed. The cast talks through Kasdeya’s departure, the weight of Nyros’s betrayal, and what it means to face an enemy who is always one step ahead. Expect behind-the-scenes discussion, player reactions, and a chance to breathe after a heavy session before the story moves into its next dangerous phase.

The fallout of Pyreheart follows the Agents into the mountains. With Kasdeya gone and the Syndicate silent, the team chooses its first move in a fractured world. Their path leads them deep into the Shatterpeaks, where an abandoned watchtower bleeds heat it was never meant to hold. As old wards fail and the land itself pushes back, the Agents realize they are not the first to arrive. The truth waiting inside Frostline Watchtower is deliberate, controlled, and far closer than expected.

After the Pyreheart Accord arc ends, Nat 20 shifts into a lighter breakdown of the chaos that unfolded. The cast steps back from the tension to talk through the decisions, the betrayal, and the fallout in a casual format. They share highlights, favorite moments, and the choices that shaped the story. This episode gives space to breathe after a heavy arc and helps the audience understand where the team stands before the next chapter begins.

In this final episode of "The Pyreheart Accord" arc, the fallout from Nyros turning on the party reaches every corner of the Syndicate. The Dominion and the Hollow Host now stand united under the signed Accord, and the Agents are forced to confront where their loyalties stand after their narrow escape. The Syndicate gathers its leaders, questions the team, and issues a new directive as fractures spread across the land. Old ruins begin to stir. Strange signals rise from the mountains. The Agents face fear, doubt, and the first hints of something far older waking in the dark. The road ahead is uncertain, but one truth is clear. The world has changed, and the next mission will decide who survives what comes next.

The Crit Happens crew sits down to unpack the U.N.I.T. arc, where everyone played a Wild Magic Sorcerer and tried to hold the world together with unstable spells. You hear how the Universal Neomagic Isolation Team came to life, why surge-on-every-cast felt wild at the table, and what it was like to fight a Breach Core that fed on their chaos.

The players walk through their favorite surges, close calls, and the moment the rift pulled them in mid mission. You get DM perspective on planning controlled chaos, running Instability as a hidden clock, and keeping the story tense without shutting down the fun. The crew talks about what they would change next time, what surprised them most, and whether U.N.I.T. should return when the next anomaly hits Virelios.

The third and final U.N.I.T. arc episode begins at the center of the Spiral Chamber as the source of the neomagic instability reveals itself. The chamber reacts in full force, shifting light, twisting shadows, and amplifying every surge the operatives create. The fractured relic at the core awakens, feeding on wild magic and lashing out in unstable arcs.

The episode focuses on a sustained battle inside a hostile environment that changes with each action the team takes. Surges shift the terrain. Spikes of arcane pressure interrupt movement. The chamber tests their coordination and control as much as their strength. By the end, the team faces the full power of the instability and must contain or neutralize it before the zone collapses around them, setting the tone for the mission that follows.
