SLAY Episode 74: The Final Nightmare Aug 25, 2024

When Kellius Droman died, his age-suppression spell on Delilah evaporated. She went from thirteen years old to twenty-two years old almost instantly. While she will inherit her father’s empire, she’s angry and bitter at his manipulation.

Only one person in the world understands the pain of being unknowingly magically modified by a person who is supposed to love you and protect you — Billy Middleton, whose powers and true physical were hidden from him by his grandmother.

Delilah’s nightmare-generating powers are stronger than anyone could have known. The last person to find that out the hard was Teddy Two-Fingers, who now lies catatonic in a Bastion cell.

Meanwhile, Lincoln Franks, the Man in Gray, left Callista’s club in Lumencia, saying that there was something he needed to destroy. What is his target?

In the process, Lukas was badly injured, Kellius Droman died, and Teddy was left catatonic, completely unresponsive to Lincoln’s questions about how to get his son Sam off The Shelf.

Agneetha died, too, at the hands of Lincoln, and Haimana burned alive as a result of Billy’s out-of-control power. It is the first time Billy has taken a life.

SLAY Episode 72: Termination Aug 11, 2024

Deep underground in Teddy Two-Fingers’s cell block lair, Haimana’s giant scorpion delivered a massive dose of poison to Kellius Droman. Kellius is down for the count — is he dying? Fueled by rage, Billy unleashed his internal power and torched Haimana’s killer beetles. Under the light of ten thousand fireflies, Billy rises up for the final battle with Haimana, but first, he must defeat the same scorpion that down his teacher.

With the help of her fellow captives that she may or may not be controlling, Delilah defeated Teddy Two-Fingers. He lies on the floor of his room, bound in guitar strings, bleeding heavily from a tiger swipe to the arm. The dreamgaunts crawled down from the captives heads, and were crawling toward Teddy.

Meanwhile, Lincoln searches the cell block complex, hunting for Teddy, who is the only one who can tell Lincoln how to get Lincoln’s son, Samuel, off the purgatory-like hellscape known as The Shelf.

Will he reach Teddy before it’s too late?

SLAY Episode 71: Vengeance Aug 04, 2024

With Magda’s help, Lincoln saved his sister Sophia’s life, using Sophia’s healing mesh to stave off the effects of Agneetha’s centipede poison. After giving Lincoln her rixator cloak, the Man in Gray is going after Delilah… and Teddy Two-Fingers.

In another part of the sprawling cell block complex, Morgan Stone engulfed Haimana in a whipping tornado. The mesh-buzz effect short-circuited Droman’s magic — will it do the same to Morgan’s and Billy’s if he tries to use his?

Teddy Two-fingers knows he’s lost the battle. He tried to flee through a secret tunnel in his room, only to be dragged out by a young storm-mage, Mata Kasintseva. But was it Mata who pulled Teddy out, or was it Delilah Droman who is using the dreamgaunts wrapped around the captive children’s heads to control their powers?

SLAY Episode 69: Going Down Jul 21, 2024

Lincoln, Billy, Lukas, Sophia, Kellius Droman, and Morgan Stone assaulted the Big Nasty’s burger joint located just outside the main gates of the Bastion’s fortress in Coris. At the restaurant, Lincoln and his comrades found the elevator that leads to Teddy Two-Finger’s lair.

In that lair, Teddy is already evacuating his “line workers,” the kidnapped paranormal children whose nightmares he harvests to make the purest filament in existence, filament for which Teddy demands — and receives — astronomical sums from weavers and meshworkers alike.

Teddy also let loose his leash on Haimana, his powerful meshworker who pledged to kill Kellius Droman this very day or die trying.

Haimana isn’t alone in her bloodlust — Teddy’s centipede-armed, orange-clawed thug Agneetha wants Lincoln's head. Haimana, Agneetha, and many of Teddy’s thuengol mercenaries prepare to fight Lincoln, Droman, and the others.

Meanwhile, Teddy’s prized, prodigal “foreman” — Kellius’s daughter Delilah — is done with waiting to be rescued. Her sanity cracking at the edges, Delilah is about to take matters into her own hands and unleash devastating dream-magic upon her captor.

SLAY Episode 68: Value Meal Jul 14, 2024

Working together, Lincoln, Billy, Magda, and Ariella learned that Teddy’s lair is beneath a Big Nasty’s restaurant in Cordis, close to the supernatural pawnshop known as “the Clearinghaus,” and also close to the Bastion’s fortress headquarters.

The Bastion has a magical interference zone around it, a zone that includes the Clearinghaus and Big Nasty’s. This zone, affected by a persistent spell known as “mesh-buzz,” hides the detection of all meshwork within it. It also makes magic unpredictable — sometimes magic works fine, sometimes it produces unexpected results, and sometimes it doesn’t work at all.

Lincoln and Billy left for the Clearinghaus, where they planned to meet with rixators Sophia Franks and Lukas Franks, Lincoln’s sister and brother, respectively, and with Kellius Droman and his assistant Morgan Stone.

PREVIOUSLY ON SLAY:

Thanks to a clue that Delilah Droman planted in Gabriella Radu’s mind, Lincoln and Billy paid a visit to Finicus Sleidan, the maker of the dreamgaunts Teddy Two-Fingers uses to harvest nightmares from the children he’d kidnapped.

Sleidan didn’t know where Teddy was but did reveal the name of the company buying the gaunts – Wholesome Stuff, a firm that supplies restaurants like McDonald’s and Burger King. If Ariella, Lincoln, Billy, and Magda can find where Wholesome Stuff ships to, they have a chance at tracking down Teddy, as it’s known Teddy feeds his forty-plus captives fast-food-style burgers and fries.

After following the Wholesome Stuff trail to a dead end, Lincoln and Ariella went to work calling their lawyer contacts, hoping to find someone who could uncover Wholesome Stuff’s business connections via permits, tax returns, and other legal mechanisms.

Lincoln visited Gabriella Radu at her home after Teddy ransomed her to her father. The little girl had been through hell and may never fully recover, but she brought with her a clue to Teddy’s whereabouts — a clue planted in her mind by Delilah Droman.

That clue? The name Finicus Sleidan, a darkmesh creator in Trenton, New Jersey, who is possibly the maker of dreamgaunts that Teddy uses on defenseless enlightened children in his hidden nightmare factory.

Meanwhile, Delilah is breaking down. To stay alive and strive for a rescue, she’s used her new aptitude for dream manipulation to magnify the nightmares of Teddy’s captives. How much longer can Delilah keep this up?

Teddy Two-Fingers is reveling in his new foreman’s talents. Delilah Droman has been the find of the century for him and his nightmare-harvesting operation.

Delilah, though, isn’t quite as excited. She spends her days amplifying the nightmares of children, forcing them to face their deepest terrors over and over again. If Delilah doesn’t do this, she will be the one experiencing the endless horror, and if she is tossed into that abyss, her plans or escape — for her and for the children — will drift away like that last tatters of a forgotten dream.

SLAY Episode 60: Let’s Ride May 19, 2024

Teddy Two-Fingers kidnapped Delilah Droman from her father’s mansion in Barron Heights. Teddy is holding her captive at his “nightmare factory,” located deep underground in parts unknown, where he and Hiamana are training her to be the factory’s foreman.

Delilah is trying to find a way to escape or to get a message to Lincoln, as she believes Lincoln will rescue her.

Lincoln was at Stoolie’s Bar & Grill, looking for Lupo and Booty Shooty, accomplices of the recently deceased Thoko Chikondi. Lincoln hopes they know where Teddy’s hideout is. Teddy, somehow, called Lincoln at the bar and poured salt in Lincoln’s wounds, driving Lincoln to start drinking the free shots offered by Maylene, a bartender there.

Lincoln did not tell Magda, Ariella, or Billy where he was going, and he shut off his connection with Magda’s meshwork ear cuff. He’s been gone for hours, and they have no idea where he is.

SLAY Episode 59: Hello, Lincoln May 12, 2024

Teddy is training Delilah to work in his nightmare factory. She is learning her duties as “the foreman” of the operation.

Lincoln wants to find Delilah, but he has no leads. On the advice of his father, Jacoby Franks, Lincoln set out to “follow the pain.” Lincoln told Billy, Magda, and Ariella that he’s doing this alone, and ignored their efforts to help.

When Delilah was taken from Droman’s mansion, Teddy put a bullet in Billy’s arm. Morgan Stone worked on the wound first, then, at the Old Stone Church, Magda tended to it, letting a wriggling carofactor slide in to repair the damage.

SLAY Episode 57: Delilah Apr 28, 2024

Kellius Droman and Morgan Stone set off to deal with Teddy Two-Fingers at an undisclosed location, but Teddy, Haimana, and Agneetha attacked Kellius Droman’s Barron Heights mansion with magic and a flame-throwing aerial drone that set Droman’s living guardian trees and much of the mansion ablaze. Lincoln and Billy, who were there guarding Delilah Droman, fought against Agneetha and Haimana’s murderous giant flying centipedes.

Lincoln had downed a bottle of whiskey, which slowed his reaction time, and let a drone get the drop on him. The drone fired a jet of flame that should have set Lincoln ablaze, but Billy somehow bent the flame toward himself and absorbed it, bringing it into his own body and making him so hot his clothes burned away. Billy was about to use this new power against Agneetha when a shot rang out — a bullet hit his shoulder, dropping him.

Keg-sized killer beetles ripped the floor out from under Delilah. Lincoln dove after her but lost her in the smoke. She was taken by Agneetha, Teddy, and Haimana, who shot across Barron Heights and vanished into the night.

Lincoln, unable to chase them, rushed to help Billy.

SLAY Episode 53: Goth Kid Mar 31, 2024

Teddy Two-Fingers missed his shot at kidnapping Delilah Droman, who he wanted as his “foreman” in his malevolent nightmare-harvesting operation. Can he find a replacement candidate?

Delilah’s father, Kellius Droman, hired Lincoln as Delilah’s bodyguard. When Kellius hunts Teddy Two-Fingers or trains Billy, Lincoln must stay at the Droman Mansion and protect young Delilah. Surprisingly, Lincoln and Delilah have hit it off. She trusts he can keep her safe, while he benefits from her optimism and youthful energy that he can’t experience from his own child, Sam, who remains trapped on The Shelf — where Teddy put him.

Billy’s training with Kellius goes on at Kellius’s facility, the “Nonagon,” in the mystical city of Cordis. Billy needs to find his “loom,” the structure upon which he can channel the powerful, innate magic that courses through his body.

In the battle, Lincoln cut off Sophie’s left arm below the elbow.

Afterward, Kellius Droman agreed to train Billy in the ways of magic in exchange for Lincoln serving as Delilah’s bodyguard when Kellius was away from home.

Now, Billy is in Cordis at Kellius’s “Nonagon,” ready for his first training session, while Lincoln returns to the Droman Mansion for his first shift protecting Delilah.

Magda tried to teach Billy to control his innate powers, but the plan went awry as Billy’s frustration turned into intense heat that set the Old Stone Church’s basement ablaze. To make matters worse, an enraged Dragon just burst through the basement door to protect Billy — which puts Magda in grave danger.

Meanwhile, Lincoln tracked Teddy Two-Fingers to Kellius Droman’s mansion, where Teddy is using a meshwork carpet to sneak through Droman’s defenses in an apparent attempt to kidnap Droman’s thirteen-year-old daughter, Delilah. Lincoln used crossbow bolts charged with green hellfire to blow a gap in the wall surrounding Droman’s mansion, then drove his motorcycle straight for that hole.

Lincoln had a little chat with Thoko and learned that Thoko had placed a meshwork tracker on the carpet in hopes of stealing it a second time.

Ariella asked Kellius Droman, a powerful, dangerous, and extremely dangerous mage, to train Billy to use his innate magical power in exchange for Lincoln guarding Kellius’s teenage daughter, Delilah. Kellius turned down the offer, leaving Billy’s training duties to Magda and Ariella.

Billy needs to learn how to use his powers. Ariella asked Kellius Droman to train him in exchange for Lincoln acting as a bodyguard for Kellius’s teenage daughter, Delilah. Kellius’s response? He needs a protector, not a killer. Bill will have to find training elsewhere.

Droman did, however, improve the magical security of the Old Stone Church, for which he charged a high price — a price Ariella and Magda were unable to pay.

Ariella asked Lincoln to sell her golem charm for five hundred gold, an amount that would have paid for Droman’s work and then some. Lincoln did not get the amount Ariella asked for, but he did score a nice pawnshop panini maker.

Billy, Magda, Ariella, and Dragon are at the Old Stone Church, under assault from Butch and the Rolling outlaws. Billy and Butch fought one-on-one. Billy broke Butch’s knee, but his celebration was short-lived — Money Monday beat Billy down, leaving him a limp mess atop the now fifteen-foot-long Dragon, who has been bound up in a ball by a meshwork net provided to Butch by Boss Hawg.

Magda did some damage to B’Lockay and to Money Monday, but she collapsed in fear brought on by memories of her fight with Vestinian and the Umataken. Ariella used her limited magic to drag Magda into the nave and shut the doors tight, leaving men to try and shoulder their way through.

Across town, the club kids and Dante’s Miami thugs are battling it out at Callista’s club. Callista hurt Oleus Oakbeard, but she was knocked silly by Boss Hawg. She’s down, with only Gary Satyr to protect her against Dante’s forces, but Lincoln and Bobby are about to enter the fray.

Magda and Ariella tried to fight Butch and his men, but Magda’s flashback from her fight with Vestinian left her helpless in the fetal position. Ariella rescued Magda. The two women are likely somewhere in the church, being hunted by Butch’s men.

Butch then told Billy it was time for Billy to pay for Big Hack’s death.

Dante and his bounty hunters are coming for Callista. Outside her building, Lincoln and Mercutio attacked the Flechette Sisters and their giant panthers. Lincoln landed a near-killing shot on Betty Flechette, then fled for the secret passage that led into the building where he and Mercutio could connect with Callista, her Club Kid troops, and her bodyguard Bobby the Minotaur. Mercutio used the passage's door to cut a pursuing panther in half, but Veronica Flechette blew up that door, filling the passage with smoke and broken brick.

Scott had a bookstore appearance for THE HITHERTO SECRET EXPERIMENTS OF MARIE CURIE on Wednesday, so there was no livestream, hence, no live-read of SLAY, hence, no story episode this week (that’s a lot of hences, fam). So, the FDØ sat down with ARealGirl Herself to answer some great Junkie questions about SLAY. Will these questions impact the direction of the story?

Also, FDØ explains why you can’t see his work on Realm.fm yet, and some info on what’s going on with Empty Set Entertainment.

But wait, there are more bounty hunters in the neighborhood — the sword-wielding Flechette Sisters and the sorcerer Oleus Oakbeard are also hunting for Billy.
