The Second Front (October 24, 2025)---Episode 1: The Madman's TaleOn the eve of igniting a gang war, the crew's careful preparations are interrupted by a delirious former abbey acolyte raving about secret treasuries and wine cellars deep enough to drown armies. His wild claims might be fever dreams - or they might be the key to something greater. When the mysterious ivory icon he carries matches one already in Dray's possession, what seemed like the ravings of a madman becomes a tantalizing thread that could unravel into something more.Episode 2: A Gift For The Red HandsIn the rotting heart of the Gutters, Orso's crew executes a daring heist targeting a cache of weapons belonging to the Red Hands. But this is no ordinary theft - it's the spark meant to ignite a gang war. Led by Brynn's shadowy expertise through the maze-like alleys, the team must orchestrate the perfect crime that points to their rival Silas.Episode 3: The Kindling BurnsFrom their perch above the slums, Dray and his companions orchestrate a brutal display of violence that will change the Gutters forever. As the Red Hands unleash chaos in the market square, leaving behind a bloody message, Dray discovers that true power lies not in wielding the axe, but in knowing when to let others spill blood in your name.Episode 4: The FalloutA merchant's guard lies dead in the market square, but by morning, he's not alone. As the Gutters witness their manipulation spark open warfare between Silas and the Red Hands, the streets fall silent with fear and anticipation. While Gix revels in the growing chaos, an unexpected visitor arrives at The Crooked Keg - Corvin, alone and bearing an offer from Silas himself.Episode 5: The Second FrontThe Red Hands launch a brilliant campaign against Silas's empire - not with blades, but by targeting his merchants and destroying his protection racket. As burning stalls and smashed ale barrels send panic through the Gutters, Silene reveals the true nature of this unconventional warfare. But when Silas calls an emergency war council at his gambling den, it becomes clear that the careful balance of power in the underworld is crumbling faster than anyone anticipated.-----Want to binge The Scum Kings with fewer ads?
