So far this has been Jade's worst Khese Voya to date, which is an impressive feat. Hemley is holding up remarkably well to the altercations.

If Hemley has to come to Khese Voya with her, then at least Jade is going to make absolutely sure that none of her family find out. They might have casework to do, but she has her reputation to think about.

Jade accidentally calls Hemley at his engagement party and has to do a second interview with Azero by herself. In response, Hemley invites himself to a traditional troll gathering that even Jade doesn't want to attend, and which he absolutely cannot come to.

Jade impresses Hemley with her better-than-average driving skills and also makes a narrow escape from a dark alley. Later she receives an early morning wake-up call about an unwanted visitor at Casey's apartment. The worst cases are the ones you lose sleep over.

Jade and Hemley are still trying to work out what really happened that night at the Church of Kothazrul. Meanwhile, some things about Khatta Ama aren't adding up. Everyone seems to have a story about him...if only the stories actually matched up.

Jade and Hemley go on an outing to the Church of Kothazrul, where the incense is not just incense and the vegetable garden is looking way too abundant. It's a nice bonding moment for them.

Armed with the knowledge that Khatta Ama is missing, Jade and Hemley have a good reason to go back to Aertech. Hemley uses his advanced communication skills to get an interview with the CEO. Jade uses her advanced cynicism skills to make everyone dislike her.

Hey all, just a short message to say that I'm taking a little hiatus this week because life got the better of me and I'm behind on recording, but we will be up and running with scheduled episodes again next week. Thanks to everyone who is listening along!
Hemley pulls through on a late night visit to the Hall of Khatta Re, even though he really didn't want to, and if she's completely honest with herself, Jade didn't want him to either.

Hemley drags Jade to a hip bar with him, to talk to a charming witness, and she still manages to act like she'd rather be the victim of a satanic ritual. If they get a lead out of this, it had better not involve trolls.

Tired of Hemley, Jade does some investigating of her own and regrets cold-calling on a religious sect without telling anyone where she was going.
