Ash & Ambition - A Blades in the Dark Story w/ Broke & Nerdy - Episode 06: Papers, Please
A sudden attack forces Gravedust to blow their own escape route and go to ground. With their boat destroyed and their lair exposed, they’re left choosing between exile, a dangerous favor from the Veil… or doubling down on what they already have.
While the crew regroups, Ghost Eater seeks answers from a familiar ghost—only to learn he's been marked by something ancient, dark, and obsessed with justice. Whatever it is, it followed the artifact out of the Ashen Mountains, and it’s not done with him yet.
Meanwhile, the crew moves forward with their plan to incriminate the Brokeback Goats, staging a fake checkpoint to intercept a shipment.
