Red Markets: The Grapevine – Episode 8
As Tiburon reels from the events of Episode 7, a new horror of the Loss presents itself. One thing that we’ve seen in smaller doses is that the loss of Humanity leads to cracks and crumbles in sanity, but we’ve rarely seen the final break. In this episode, we see the effects of that break and the shockwaves it leaves among friends and family, coworkers and colleagues.
That said, we hope that you enjoy the final episode of Grapevine as our team pursues the Tontine. Toy Store!
David’s Notes: Thank you all for listening, and thank you for your kind attention. We all hope that you’ve enjoyed, and we’re going to do something a little different in the wrap-up- please consider this note to be your invitation to ask any questions to Tiburon Unlimited, the Market, or any Grapevine NPC’s (living or dead) and we will answer in the campaign wrap-up episode.
Also, here is the text of Cross’s final letter to Tiburon; we are sharing because it is far too good not to. Click below to read it:

The one who started them on this path in the beginning now asks them to help prevent something that had a hand in destroying the old world. The danger is great, but the rewards are even greater. The payday of a large amount of gold (maybe a full McDuck worth!) that could fully restore the fortunes of the Scorches. All they have to do is confront an ancient evil.
