Chapter Ninety-Five: Decay and Despair

The new trio searches for a rumored component that could bring back their ally. Content warning: suicidal ideation. There are moments in this episode where characters who fail a despair/fear mechanic express very low thoughts. If you're sensitive to this kind of content, you could skip 51:00 - 1:46:00 and avoid the bulk of it (you'll miss the combat, but get everything you need plot-wise). Please reach out to a loved one or your doctor if you are feeling hopeless. We love you!
