After having found a bizarre bell and a captured peasant woman next to a burned-out chapel in a clearing, the party’s interactions with the Habsburg soldiers encamped there turns violent. The situation gets even darker when everyone discovers for whom the bell tolls.

Dobrogost the Foundling, Mama Zabagushka the Half Witch, and Barbi the Bonekeeper continue their travels through the ancient forest of Öreg Erdő in 1520s Hungary. Accompanying them this time is Percival Fenix, a Hexenbane. Trouble begins after the party hears a dreadful bell ring out through the trees and are compelled to investigate.

Captain Sinsayshun, Handy Dan Dee, Nova Voltbreaker, and Legolas “Leg” Bowne go toe-to-toe with Mika of the Wizards of Filth. Afterwards, the heroes overcome even more treacherous traps and musical monstrosities. Finally, the Necrodancers square off against the rest of their rivals, desperately fighting and sacrificing to stop the looming Filthocalypse.

Hunting down the Wizards of Filth, the Necrodancers continue their exploration of the Brighton Street Theater while navigating traps and battling monsters.

In the Glorious Empire — a semi-industrial fantasy realm of magic and music — the touring performance troupe known as the Necrodancers meets the man who is to become their new frontman. Together, they learn of a vile plot by a hated rival troupe called the Wizards of Filth that could alter the entire world. With several hours remaining before they’re scheduled to perform, the intrepid entertainers set off to put a stop to it.

The party speaks with the mayor, Otto, and then interrogates Ilsa in her cage. After checking in with Father Vosgard, the team treks into the woods, hunting the pig that may or may not be Konrad. A muddy melee occurs, and in the grisly aftermath, all secrets and schemes are exposed.

Rosalin, Ludmilla, and Oswald arrive in the small, decrepit village of Krote and meet with Vosgard, a priest who has summoned them. Inside the Fettered Fox tavern, Vosgard asks them to investigate the disappearance of a man named Konrad who locals suspect has been transformed into a pig by his lover, Ilsa, currently imprisoned for witchcraft. The team accepts and starts by questioning a witness and snooping around houses. Puzzling clues begin to accumulate.

After lying in wait for an assassin, the moment eventually arrives, but it doesn’t quite go as planned. A rooftop chase ensues, and a dramatic confrontation caps off the party’s rough night at the Three Feathers. With everything wrapped up, Rosalin, Ludmilla, and Oswald resume their journey to Krote for their next grim adventure.
