The heroes are in Mount Celestia - the seven heavens. There is a single mountain rising from an endless ocean.

The group has been stranded in the outer planes. They've been following a path created by marching modrons.

They are near the ocean, where Miga is making sandcastles. S3-4N makes wavy lines in the sand, like a moat.

Suddenly, a glowing ball of light appears. It's a lantern archon, a petitioner of Mount Celestia. It asks the group if they are lost.

Mercy begs the archon to take them home. It says it needs their help. If they can help it, it can get them home.

They meet with a sword archon named Alsiel who is serene and calm. She welcomes the group and asks them to hear her troubles. She explains that the march is headed for a town nearby - Heart's Faith. The modrons will march through and cause utter devastation.

Durge asks if they could just set the town on fire. The archon is horrified. Pentar offers to help deal with the bodies afterward.

Gille says that he will offer up a true act of heroism in exchange for a letter of recommendation.

The group tries to estimate how many modrons are marching.. it's thousands. The archon offers to transport the group to the town. They are teleported to the gate.

The guards at the gate are nervous. "Who's there?"

Durge plays a song to soothe them. They sing, "It's just Miga" over and over again.

The group enters and checks out the town. Merchants are hurrying and setting up stalls. They spot an aasimar lazily observing the scene. Pentar pokes the aasimar.

Gille tells him that the group is here to save the town from certain destruction. Mercy explains that modrons are marching toward the town.

A young lad runs up to the aasimar. "My lord! A huge army of modrons is coming! We've only got a few minutes before they're here!"

Durge is still playing music. Miga sings "You're all going to die" over and over.

One merchant approaches Durge and says he's had enough - he wants to die. Durge tells him to go tell everyone in town to leave. She says that once he has done that, he can throw himself in front of a demon.

The modrons march in to the town. There are thousands of them, of many different types. A quinton, a tall modron with wings and a domed hat, argues with a citizen, telling him he is being illogical. "You are halting our progress. You are an obstacle. Step aside or you will be removed."

S3-4N hides behind Miga and is fascinated by the various types of modrons spreading out before them.

The modrons split and they're not following the roads. Some are marching east and others are marching west. S3-4N doesn't know what's happening. It asks Miga if it should march. Miga and S3-4N march in place.

The group gets word that there are a number of locations are in peril, including the orphanage. The heroes perk up when they hear about this.

Gille quietly wonders if the group could leave Miga and S3-4n should stay at this orphanage once it is saved.

There is a magical field protecting the orphanage, but the modrons are hammering away at it, and the barrier is slowly weakening. Kids are climbing out of the orphanage windows.

One kid runs up to Miga and says that there are more children in danger and they need help.

Mercy tries to cast darkness, but the modrons have truesight and can see right through it.

They head over to another building, where a citizen points out to the modrons that they're breaking a treaty. He winks at the group. He's lying.

4 duodrones walk up and grab the man. They start pulling him apart. The group attacks.

Pentar gives herself mandibles and tears one modron apart.

Miga kills another and tears a wing off of a third. S3-4N is missing a wing, so Miga puts it on him. He holds up his fork hand and cheers for "Miga 2".

By the time the group defeats the modrons, they see that the vast majority of the march has passed through the town and are heading into a portal. Miga realizes that S3-4N is missing. After looking around frantically, she spots him marching with the other modrons through a portal!


That's where we stop!
