As the sixth episode of the first season of Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet, "Personal Vendetta" opens with a tense organizational meeting. The writers struggle to come up with a satisfying twist for the game's upcoming expansion, and time is running short. Ian, the game's creative director, pushes hard for his own vision of the game – but Poppy, the head of QA, has her own reservations about his approach. Meanwhile, Brad the marketing director frets over the news that a rival company is developing a similar game, and tests out a new ad campaign that includes a cameo from a popular rapper.

As these high-level negotiations are taking place, other employees are confronting their own personal demons. Danny, lead engineer, is still taking heat from his coworkers for a failed project. He tries to make amends by avidly promoting an app he's developing – but no one seems interested. Carol, the office's HR representative, is coming to terms with the fact that she's always been seen as the "mom" of the office. When Ian tries to give her a stern talking-to about her role in mediating a conflict between two employees, she decides to take matters into her own hands – with surprising results.

As the episode progresses, each character's storyline takes them down a different comedic path. Ian's obsession with his own vision of the game leads him to make bold, brave decisions – but he may be overlooking some crucial flaws. Brad's desperate attempts to market the game take a bizarre turn when rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs arrives on set. Danny's app may be brilliant, but he's got to deal with a demon before he can make it a reality. And when Carol's attempts to help a coworker struggling with a personal issue go awry, she finds herself taking on a new role within the company.

The episode is full of twists and turns, but it all builds up to a thrilling conclusion that will leave viewers on the edge of their seats. As the various plotlines collide, it becomes clear that there are bigger forces at play within Mythic Quest than any of the characters could have realized.
