| Zosime turns incorporeal and reforms away from her captors, while the others escape after a colossal Forest incursion attacks the Bastion. Trying to escape, they are confronted by spores that conjure images that appear to force moral dilemmas on them. To leave the illusion, the party choose sides in each of the cases. There does not appear to be a way to choose ‘incorrectly’ as such, but the party are left with the feeling that the Forest has learned something about them. | Zosime turns incorporeal and reforms away from her captors, while the others escape after a colossal Forest incursion attacks the Bastion.

| - | Following the bodies through the streets, and looking for Zosime, who has gone on ahead, the party enter the Wellspring tower, now on fire and under attack by the Forest. Hearing screams from the upper floors, the party dash through a gauntlet of Forest enemies, dazed and stunned by the now ever-present spores. Zosime, meanwhile, clambers right up to the top floor, arriving to find Kelvin obsessively working over a group of screaming ‘volunteers’ and a pair of large metal cocoons. Jasine is killed as the party fight up to reach Zosime, and the grief-stricken commissioner attempts a guided mutation to make her heart beat again, while the rest of the party confront Kelvin over her experiments.

| Fleeing from Kelvin, the party find Elect across the Bastion, pushing back the Forest but also taking every human they find to be converted at the Wellspring. In their attempts to escape, the party are cornered by Elect, who get halfway through converting Magda and Heston before the party guide them through the hole in the wall that the Forest created. | Fleeing from Kelvin, the party find Elect across the Bastion, pushing back the Forest but also taking every human they find to be converted at the Wellspring.

| Magda and Jasine, now also undergoing a slow conversion, chant a mantra designed to keep them sane, while Zosime simply sits down and cries. The group watch as Forest creatures try to fight their way into the Wellspring, seeing Elect marching continually out of the building. | Magda and Jasine, now also undergoing a slow conversion, chant a mantra designed to keep them sane, while Zosime simply sits down and cries.

| - | Finally, they encounter Kelvin, stood by the wooden supports of the Wellspring with a single Elect. The Elect promises that, now they have the Grandmaster’s memories, they will find their way to Rastaban and make the populace as strong as them. Asher seems onboard with this, until the Elect examines her and proclaims that she is too badly damaged for a full conversion, and will instead be reduced to spare parts. Horrified, Kelvin watches as the party destroy the Chosen, alternately exhorting them to destroy the Wellspring and insisting that they save the future that the Elect offer. As the survivors smash the supports, Asher flees into the Forest, insisting that this is not the end, but merely a beginning. | + | Finally, they encounter Kelvin, stood by the wooden supports of the Wellspring with a single Elect.
