Sessions
Plot
Caleb is led to Ao Qin and helps to free the dragon in exchange for knowledge of the Outer Gates. This allows Caleb to fulfill his role as the Anti-Christ (Beast of the Land) and Ao Qin becomes the Dragon (Beast of the Sea). The latter seeks to destroy Daisy Mae's unborn child while Caleb and the Denaarians begin to take control of the world.

Scenes
- Abel recognizes Bob and Eva
- Bob and Bo reveal identity of Crusader
- Daisy and Gail arrested by Wardens
- Gail facilitates Daisy's escape
- Gideon's shadow tells Daisy about the Merlin being Cain
- The Crusader tells them the Apocalypse is a spell
Scenes: Christmas
- Missing Children: Eva's children don't show up for dinner. Jeanette's room-mate describes them being taken by something that resembles the Krampus.
- Agent Black: The PCs can contact Peter Black through FBI channels or using magic, he'll arrive to help investigate and confirm it isn't the Krampus (notes it isn't snowing).
- The Trap: Track the kids (with difficulty) to a farm at the base of Mount Diablo in Contra Costa where The Beast is holding them (they are overcome with despair). After defeating him (Daisy starts contractions), they find the farm surrounded by Denarians (including Cain and the Crusader). The Knight arrive in Jed's pickup, barreling their way through to the barn. New Moon, pitch darkness.
- The Siege: Cain sends the Crusader to negotiate. He wants the baby (once it is born) or the Knights. Social combat with the Crusader can convince him to repent and he'll reveal that the Apocalypse is a spell before turning to dust. Otherwise, they'll burn the building down and then attack.
- Hostages: Cain takes over negotiations and reveals his prisoners (Solomon, Tolliver's baby, John, Boutros adopted son, and Raul's 10-year-old daughter) and asks for both the baby and the Knights to spare their lives.
- Christmas: Just before midnight, it begins to get cold and snow starts falling. At midnight, the baby is born as an unseen bell rings out the hour (and faint approaching sleigh bells) at the end of which is a thunderous "Ho Ho Ho" and the army of Christmas attacks the Denarians. Bob goes to help the hostages. On seeing him, Cain withdraws (an Empathy roll will reveal he knows him well). The rest is a brawl with the PCs hopefully devoted to getting the hostages out of dodge while the Christmas elves fight the Denarians off (they retreat with Cain).
- Aftermath: The Knights have some coins, Daisy has the baby, Santa gives presents. On arriving home, Grace is ominously absent.
