The Black Mountain of Sorrow and the Blood Moon Eclipse

Dave receives another book from the heavens.

Benderman and Ajax begin a long journey discovering friends and a large army preparing for a battle of unseen proportions as it awaits the eclipse and a deadly curse that comes with it. Razien sits in his tomb, neither dead nor fully alive but learning much needed knowledge from those who communicate with him as he waits to blossom from his cocoon.

Karne returns for another Karne-Age, only to be surprised by followers of an unexpected race that's eager to help with his sadistic plans. When things go awry, he pleads for the help of a foe who makes an unexpected deal against their will. In return, two armies clash, causing a sacrifice of a warrior and the ascension of another.
