==The incoming attacks==

According to Ridcully, a large Ork WAAAAGH! is coming, led by an Overlord named Gutcrumpa. That's one thing. Another is, the Abomination is getting serious about Saint Lin. A large Crusade is being assembled at Valinor. They intend to attack while the Trust is busy with the Greenskins. Fortunately, after Ridcully's recent exploits, their plans are an open book for him, so it shouldn't be a problem to hold them off. Not that divining them is so difficult; you can imagine what kind of improvisers the Star Father's servants are.

Jacob vanishes when fighting a rogue Beta. Eight months later, he reappears alongside a young queen of a local insectoid species. According to him, they were stranded together for almost twenty years. In the Caverns.

What are the Caverns? Well, ever heard of the [[Underdark]]? Avernus has one. Insane enough for a daemon to get lost in. Full of threats beyond imagination. Some people do venture there. The threats are to Avernus what Avernus is to a normal world, and the quality of those madmen is likewise. When they get tired of the Caverns, they tend to take a break... as Helguard elites. Still, very few of even the Cavers tend to stray below the shallowest layers. Jacob was stranded much deeper. Deep enough to be touched by a god living there...
