April 6, 2026·1 hr 55 min·2 clips

Prith crosses a 50-foot blue shaft and reaches a corridor filled with blinding white light.

1. Alcoholic Adventure Cabal's Oasis of the White Palm-012 follows an Old School Essentials expedition through the Crypt of Baldor Al Moussak and its blue shafts of light. 2. The unnamed game master guides Thanor, Prith, Judas, Eolian, Blackie, and other player characters through rooms connected to Princess Shadala's disappearance. 3. The episode's central hook is a magical shaft that carries stones, wrapped human figures, and relics between elevations 50 and 140 feet apart. 4. The party begins in a 30-foot octagonal chamber containing an eight-foot blackstone obelisk, two archways, and a previously discovered secret door. 5. Eolian tests the shaft with a copper coin, which disappears and reappears roughly 15 seconds later at the top. 6. A second chamber contains a ten-foot stone cube with an open top and a tome positioned about three feet above the floor. 7. Thanor casts web while standing on a human pyramid, retrieving a large decorated book whose symbols seem tied to magic users of a particular alignment. 8. In another obelisk room, an unexplained voice answers Prith's question with the phrase "despair if you continue thus" and warns against taking unseen things for granted. 9. The second shaft cycles a crystal ball, helmet, shield, scroll, two bottles, and small rocks at approximately 9.7 meters per second. 10. Players who enjoy Old School Essentials dungeon exploration, improvised problem-solving, and tabletop party banter will find the episode relevant.
