Jeebus Takes the Wheel Back

The road did not reopen through paperwork.

It reopened through Jeebus.

He appeared to Jonah, removed the Wall of Force, and placed Jonah back where Jonah belonged for this stretch of Act 5: behind the wheel. The caravan could move again, Ragefort behind them, Thunderlungs no longer an enemy on the road but a passenger, rescued charge, or unresolved responsibility depending on how honest everyone felt.

Thunderlungs suppressed his own power with a collar or bracelet.

That small act changed the volume of him. He still liked making noise. He still had the presence of someone built for sound, pressure, and impact. But collared, he could sit in the caravan, drink beer, talk, and become a person instead of a crisis.

Then he added the strange part.

He once had a green orc roommate in Ragefort who also called himself Jeebus.

For Jonah, that was not a detail likely to stay small. It raised the familiar Jericha question: divine influence, coincidence, delusion, echo, or some overlap that only looks absurd until it matters later. Jonah evangelized about creation and Jeebus while the road resumed, and the party carried Thunderlungs forward with the rest of their cargo.

Ragefort had tried to make him containment.

The caravan made him conversation.
