SLAY Episode 109: Shroomazoomzoom
Magda, who controls the Cursed Armor of Sir Arnault the Pure, continues to carry the comatose Cray-Cray Bray. Lincoln realized he’s using those around him in a way not that different from how Callista uses him—without kidnapping their children and putting them in purgatory, guarded by a huge Naga, of course—but still.
Billy knows he must control his fire-that-is-not fire if the quest is to succeed.
Dante and Faceless, who is posing as Callista herself, lead the way.

SLAY Episode 108: Arsebane
Dante Oganov, the Adidas tracksuit-wearing goblin drug lord, is closer than ever to getting the goods on Callista. He’s about to learn why no one has ever before penetrated her booby-trapped catacombs located deep beneath the Anwick Poison Gardens.
With Cray-Cray Bray still in a coma, the gang heads toward the next trap—the gravity chamber.
Linc needs to keep his mind on the job, yet his thoughts drift toward his son, trapped on the Shelf, and the dressing down he got from Faceless in the last episode.
