Let us know if this becomes a recurring issue - I suspect, and hope, that this was an unlucky one-time occurrence!

I should mention that I left a little bit out, which probably doesn’t change the diagnosis, but my monitors briefly turned off as it looked like a graphics driver actually crashed and rebooted. This seems to track with the crash log that popped up, but still worth mentioning.

Played another Orthus Offensive last night and the teleport bells did NOT crash the game this time, so I’ll write it as a one-off.
