    Oh. Well, NOW I've done it.

    Sarcasm. It's a sign that the devils own it.

    Another joke based on the car. (A Ford Mustang.)

Something to clarify that they're presumably keeping watch over his hole and floating status would make this a bit clearer.
    Perhaps so. Still, it had been a long day and they did have a watch like most sane adventurers.

    Nope. Kalach is having problems.

    He woke up with them on. Afterward, he got back into his armor.

    That 'beer' is a black substance with gel-like viscosity. This version of Dakmar drives a truck, and that's the fuel he uses. Yeah, drinking the stuff imposes a Fort save in the low 50s.

    Overall I enjoyed these chapters; only a couple typos/clarifications that were a little jarring. Otherwise, great work as usual!
    Thanks!
