A netzine article in Quoth the Raven Issue 27. The Conferences of Victor Gagné Part the Fourth; Out of the One, Many is a collaborative effort between series creator Benjamin Bauml and M.H. Bartels. The story details the further misadventures of protagonist Victor Gagné after his escape from the Shadow Rift.
Victor arrives at the Retreat, an expansive yet also claustrophobic estate owned by the mysterious Schlosser family.

Worse, the World Engine reveals to Victor the existence of the Centurions of the Night and their vile intention of unleashing war throughout the Core and rebuilding the whole Demiplane of Dread from the foundations upward...
