The Chapel Gives Back the Blue-Haired Girl

After the commune disaster, the Pink Pony Girls had practical problems and supernatural ones, which in Gravenhurst usually meant the same afternoon. They needed replacement farmers. They ran into registration crackdowns. Root Daddy became a possible farming lead. The Drow advised fake names. Astrid Ironhoof provided potions and rumors. Every errand moved through bureaucracy, survival, and the city's growing fear of anyone who did not fit neatly inside Lawful control. Then the trail reached the Necromancer's Chapel. There were cows fighting zombies, Mortellus Vayne appearing in the middle of the mess, and a Night Hag revealing the Collector's hand behind the larger pattern. Mortellus's head exploded. The hag vanished. The gothic comedy peeled back into something much worse. Inside a coffin, the party found the Blue-Haired Girl. They also found the Soulfire Scythe. Dallas gained the scythe, the Blue-Haired Girl was rescued, Mortellus Vayne died, and Gertie's Collector network became more visible. The episode sharpened several long hooks at once: Gertie's mass raise-dead scroll scheme, the Blue-Haired Girl's pact fate, Nick Kremp's rising notoriety, Duskborn consolidation, and the expanding Lawful registration machine. The chapel gave the party answers. Every answer came with another hand reaching from underneath it.
