That search includes catching up with our old pal, Meathook, and checking out the gentrified Scumm Bar.

With that accomplished, I deal with the impending destruction of our new house by going to the local bar in search of a drink.

This leads us to start exploring the village of Melee and catch up with some old allies.

Why? Because Patch 6 changes offer us yet another ending and I wanted to see if Shadowheart would stay with me even if I was all squidish. Besides, this way we hit an even 200 episodes!

He also discovers that Withers brought in a very special guest to handle the music for the party, and reads the various letters from everyone we helped over the course of the game.

The good news is that our walking the somewhat dodgy path of righteousness has earned us the aid of many noble allies. The bad news is most of them are going to be largely useless in the fight to come.

This leads to a confrontation with the Emperor, a falling out, and our having shagged a mindflayer being revealed to everyone by the githyanki Prince Orpheus.<br><br> Trapped in stasis for who knows how long and THAT is the first thing he notices about his savior? No respect, I tell you...
