All of us have something to say, but some are never heard.

Neil Brennan called this something like “the blackest shit ever.” I had to check it out, and tend to agree. Now you have to check it out. Keep in mind that Issac Hayes is wearing a vest made out of gold chains when he gets on stage.

The city of Neverwinter, the Jewel of the North, seemed blessed by the gods. While the rest of the Sword Coast was devastated by the event, Neverwinter survived largely intact.
