Narrative recap

he party fought through the burning streets of the City of Glass, defending civilians from a mind flayer and its shadow dancer escorts. Krackle climbed the old lighthouse and rained chain lightning across the rooftops. Lilith broke the flayer's psychic hold, wild shaped into a swarm of bees, and Logan finished the creature with a single devastating strike from above.

Theme: Lanternlight in a ruined chapel.

Won by Sasha Reyes · 284 entries, 1,940 votes.
I generated forty drafts in a Sunday afternoon, then spent an hour repainting the chapel arch I wanted. Won 600 gold and a featured slot. My table actually saw the piece in the public gallery the week after.
