Summary of episode 3.
Going to Pondside
Mabel π, Helga πΈ, and the gang head to Pondside to see the aftermath of Maha's attack. They chat about their pasts as they walk over.^1^
Pondside is destroyed. No one is left. Footprints suggest that everyone fled to Haymeadow.
Squirrels
They spot two squirrels digging in the ruins and the gang eavesdrops on them:
The gang fights off the squirrels and their skeleton army. They decide to head to Three Trees City to track down those squirrels and investigate Cruelclaw.
Before leaving, Helga takes an etched copper orb and a wand from the ruins of her grandparents' home. This feels like foreshadowing.
Three Trees City
The gang arrives by river boat. Mabel and Finneas π° ask around if anyone has seen those two squirrel necromancers but stumble upon a boisterous otter.
The otter's also looking for someone. Unknown species, blue cloak, and⦠tattoos? What are tattoos?
Helga shows him a drawing of a vision she had of a fox that matches his description. Things get tense when the otter starts hassling her for more information and Mabel steps in.
Flood
Before the altercation gets worse, panic erupts at the docks as the tide rises absurdly fast.
The Flood Gar, a Calamity Beast, arrives, carrying in a huge wave. Together with the otter, the current sweeps the gang away from Three Trees City. They climb out of the water into a damp cave, face to face with a bunch of rats that don't welcome them.
