After a long and harrowing journey through Africa and The narrow escape from Egypt; Octo finds themselves heading towards Mt. Olympus. The leaves are changing and so is OctoStrange, The gods have taken notice and are not pleased with this new abomination's presence and disruption of the status quo. They intend to bring an end to Octo, Once and for all!
Octo isn't alone tho, Friends from ventures past have come to Octo's aid. The battle is eminent, The die is cast, The Gods prepare, The Pizza rolls are cooked, Moms basement is empty, the dungeon master strokes their neck beard. The Fall of OctoStrange has begun...
