But first:

BEAUTY & THE BURNED: INTERLUDE CONCLUSION

The party’s suspicions prove correct: the beauty Julien is also the witch who came to punish the clan of castle Netvor for its senseless cruelty towards woodland animals during its Red Hunt. Julien cursed the tacitly complicit prince and servants into beasts and objects until the forest is revitalised. Some of the wicked members of Netvor were transformed into demonic wolves. Remaining at the palace, the witch fell in love with the prince and has been encouraging him to restore the forests to Julien’s nebulous, seemingly never-arriving satisfaction.

After an exchange with Nami and Nynaeve, Julien concedes to lift the curse off the innocent castle servants, who gratefully return to their human appearance with immediate effect. The princely beast must serve the forest another one hundred days to regain his true form — while his family, turned wolfish, will only become human once more when the prince sees fit.

Below is a loose summary of what to expect from the arrival log of Hatthevar on Saturday, when you will receive further cosmetic details.

With the blizzard and tragedy of castle Netvor behind them, the party journeys on to Hatthevar, former cradle of superstition now fallen in the hands of undead maker Matthias. Using local beacons, he summons spirits from different worlds and points in time, giving them flesh in the citadel. Unlike the undead encountered elsewhere, these dead retain their awareness and personality.

Sensing Matthias’ distraction, undead Lords have been slowly encircling Hatthevar with vicious forces to usurp him — so far, to no avail. The citadel’s only entryway is heavily guarded by enormous ghosts that consume men and floating spirits strangle them with chains.
