- 0:43SPEAKER_03: Welcome, fellow adventurers, nerds, and neurodivergents.
- 0:46SPEAKER_03: Sit back, stay hydrated, and prepare yourselves for tonight's adventure.
- 0:50SPEAKER_03: Last time,
- 0:50the legendary misfits were traveling down the river towards
- 0:53their destination,
- 0:54SPEAKER_03: Lover's Lake.
- 0:56Pretty early into their journey,
- 0:57their path was blocked by nine water elementals.
- 1:00SPEAKER_03: Other than attacking, Ace and Elish decided to negotiate with them.
- 1:04SPEAKER_03: After some confusing conversation,
- 1:06SPEAKER_03: Ace asked Malachi for some holy water,
- 1:09SPEAKER_03: and the elementals tell Ace to come.
- 1:11SPEAKER_03: She does and is immediately swallowed in a watery vortex.
- 1:15SPEAKER_03: It changes colors and glows for a while before dissipating.
- 1:18SPEAKER_03: Ace was cleansed of perceived evil.
- 1:22At this time,
- 1:23Malachi heard a voice in his head that was reminiscent of Saya.
- 1:26SPEAKER_03: And a large flying creature was investigated by Pen, Elish, and Devlin.
- 1:31SPEAKER_03: This happened to be a mistake as it was an adult white dragon.
- 1:35After some combat,
- 1:36falling,
- 1:37more combat,
- 1:37and more falling,
- 1:38the dragon turns tail and retreats.
- 1:41SPEAKER_03: Their day ends uneventfully and the next day is equally so.
- 1:46The misfits all worked on various skills and did some research
- 1:48to piece together
- 1:49SPEAKER_03: the information they have learned.
- 1:51SPEAKER_03: This day also ends without incident.
- 1:54SPEAKER_03: The following day, they all wake up to a cloudy sky.
- 1:57SPEAKER_03: As the morning progresses, they see an opening way in the distance.
- 2:00SPEAKER_03: However, a dark shadow swims under the boat.
- 2:03SPEAKER_03: The underside of the boat is attacked and everyone became tense.
- 2:07After some looking around,
- 2:08they saw an island-like form keeping pace with the ship.
- 2:11They determined that it was a dragon turtle and attempted to
- 2:15communicate with it.
- 2:16It seemed to want treasure and unleashed a breath against
- 2:19Elish,
- 2:19Dianus,
- 2:20and Pen.
- 2:21SPEAKER_03: Meager treasure was given, but that was not enough to appease it.
- 2:25SPEAKER_03: They honest did something to cause it to go blind temporarily,
- 2:28SPEAKER_03: and the ship was able to shake it off.
- 2:30SPEAKER_03: Due to the increased speed,
- 2:32SPEAKER_03: they arrived at the island in the center of Lover's Lake and disembarked,
- 2:36SPEAKER_03: excited to see what awaits the legendary misfits.
- 2:47SPEAKER_03: You are standing on this giant island
- 2:52SPEAKER_03: Sand bar thing in the center of this rather large lake.
- 3:00SPEAKER_03: There's normal wildlife around.
- 3:01SPEAKER_03: Like it's not abandoned or anything.
- 3:04SPEAKER_03: There's no creepiness.
- 3:07SPEAKER_03: They do keep their distance from your group.
- 3:10SPEAKER_03: Like they're not approaching you.
- 3:12wildlife yeah the wildlife they're just keeping their distance
- 3:15like like wildlife
- 3:17does to strange creatures or things that they perceive as
- 3:21potentially predators
- 3:23they're staying away there's no large predators in the area
- 3:25that you see uh what
- 3:28kind of creatures are we seeing i'm just curious they're just
- 3:31like you know swamp
- 3:33birds crows ravens other various birds that you may not be so
- 3:37familiar with um
- 3:40If I do like a big kind of like...
- 3:41Will they kind of like flow up and fly away?
- 3:47SPEAKER_03: They all flew away from you already.
- 3:49SPEAKER_03: Oh, okay.
- 3:50SPEAKER_03: You can see them, but they're like 20, 30 feet away from you at least.
- 3:56SPEAKER_01: I like making birds...
- 3:57SPEAKER_01: I like making giant groups of birds fly away,
- 3:59so I would probably run into a giant group of birds just to
- 4:02kind of stir them up.
- 4:04SPEAKER_03: You do so rather easily while...
- 4:06What are you screaming while you're doing that or what are you
- 4:08doing to make them,
- 4:09SPEAKER_03: to startle them?
- 4:11SPEAKER_01: Fly my feathered fiends, fly!
- 4:14SPEAKER_03: So this,
- 4:15you guys all watch as Malakai goes running off to the side of
- 4:18your group into this
- 4:20flock of birds that have landed and they're a bunch of ravens
- 4:25and they just all
- 4:27SPEAKER_03: flutter up in a mass of feathers and wings.
- 4:34SPEAKER_03: and they end up being like 60 feet away from you now.
- 4:38SPEAKER_01: I smile as they all fly off.
- 4:40SPEAKER_01: That was satisfying.
- 4:42SPEAKER_00: I look at Dianus.
- 4:43SPEAKER_00: Why does everyone think we're the weirdos in this group?
- 4:49SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 4:49SPEAKER_01: Can I hear that, or?
- 4:51SPEAKER_03: Uh, you're a little too far away for her to hear that.
- 4:54SPEAKER_01: Okay, then I'm continuing to smile gingerly.
- 5:01SPEAKER_00: Oh, this made you happy.
- 5:05SPEAKER_03: At the center of this island,
- 5:08SPEAKER_03: you see there's like some type of entrance,
- 5:11but it looks more like an old rickety shaft that leads down
- 5:18like underground
- 5:19SPEAKER_03: underneath.
- 5:20Hopefully only underneath this land area and not underneath the
- 5:24lake itself.
- 5:27SPEAKER_03: You also see a sign near the entrance of the shaft.
- 5:32SPEAKER_01: The shaft is the black rectangle in the center?
- 5:35SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 5:37SPEAKER_01: Sorry, go ahead.
- 5:40SPEAKER_02: I'm going to walk towards the shaft.
- 5:42SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 5:44SPEAKER_03: I should have called it something else.
- 5:45SPEAKER_03: I should have called it a shaft.
- 5:47SPEAKER_01: Shaft is fine.
- 5:49SPEAKER_03: It's really not.
- 5:52SPEAKER_01: But it is now.
- 5:55SPEAKER_01: So what does the sign say that's at the top of the shaft?
- 6:03SPEAKER_03: What languages can you read?
- 6:08SPEAKER_00: You don't understand it.
- 6:09SPEAKER_03: Yeah, you don't understand what it says.
- 6:11SPEAKER_01: Do I know what kind of language it is?
- 6:14SPEAKER_03: You only know that it's a language that you don't know.
- 6:38SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 6:41SPEAKER_01: I wasn't sure if,
- 6:42SPEAKER_01: like,
- 6:43SPEAKER_03: since I've been with Ace to whatever,
- 6:46SPEAKER_03: like,
- 6:47SPEAKER_03: just by looking at it,
- 6:48SPEAKER_03: I know it's television,
- 6:49SPEAKER_03: but I don't,
- 6:50SPEAKER_03: I can't read it.
- 6:52SPEAKER_03: You do recognize it as something Ace has been able to read before.
- 6:57It's also been something that Malachi has been able to read
- 7:00before as well.
- 7:05SPEAKER_01: Guys, I need your help.
- 7:08SPEAKER_01: I can't read this sign.
- 7:09SPEAKER_01: I'm going to walk over to Penn as soon as I hear that.
- 7:13SPEAKER_03: Okay, you're a bit further away because you ran into a flock of birds.
- 7:17But yeah,
- 7:17you hear it,
- 7:18so you can start walking,
- 7:19making your way to the sign.
- 7:21SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 7:23SPEAKER_01: How goes it, Penn?
- 7:24SPEAKER_01: What do you need?
- 7:27SPEAKER_00: I'll trail along after.
- 7:28SPEAKER_00: I can be ahead, though.
- 7:29SPEAKER_01: This sign is a language I don't know.
- 7:36SPEAKER_01: A language you don't know?
- 7:38SPEAKER_01: I'll be damned if I can read it.
- 7:43SPEAKER_01: I start squinting at it.
- 7:44SPEAKER_03: Alright, Ace and Malachi, you both see that this is written in Elvish.
- 7:50SPEAKER_03: It says, Beware of those that have come before.
- 7:54SPEAKER_03: They have been immersed in darkness.
- 7:59SPEAKER_02: Beware of those that come before.
- 8:01SPEAKER_01: They have been immersed.
- 8:08SPEAKER_01: In darkness.
- 8:12SPEAKER_01: I tell this to Penn.
- 8:13SPEAKER_01: He's standing next to me.
- 8:20SPEAKER_01: So stay in the white.
- 8:23SPEAKER_01: Gotcha.
- 8:23SPEAKER_01: Is that what it means?
- 8:26SPEAKER_01: That's what I'm deciphering.
- 8:27SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 8:28SPEAKER_01: Does anybody else think something else?
- 8:31SPEAKER_01: Where's the Riddler?
- 8:33SPEAKER_01: And I look to Ace.
- 8:34SPEAKER_01: You know, like, when you
- 8:36SPEAKER_01: When you're passing away or whatever,
- 8:37SPEAKER_01: they always say that...
- 8:40SPEAKER_01: Do they say don't go to the light or go to the light?
- 8:45SPEAKER_00: Depends on how to live or die.
- 8:52SPEAKER_01: If you want to live, you would stay away from the light, right?
- 8:55SPEAKER_01: The light is the... I think you're cooking way too hard about this.
- 9:06SPEAKER_01: Or what do you think?
- 9:08SPEAKER_01: And are you stoned?
- 9:13SPEAKER_00: It says, doesn't say to keep away from the light or the darkness.
- 9:17SPEAKER_00: It just says to keep away from those who have come before.
- 9:20Which means probably whatever came here before us is not going
- 9:28to be in the best
- 9:28SPEAKER_00: state if we run into it.
- 9:30SPEAKER_01: It says they've been immersed in the darkness.
- 9:35SPEAKER_01: So that's why I was thinking we should stay in the light,
- 9:38SPEAKER_01: because if we go in the dark,
- 9:43SPEAKER_01: then we might get into the darkness.
- 9:46SPEAKER_00: Well, however it happens, we certainly don't want to end up like them.
- 9:51SPEAKER_01: Who is this them you're speaking about?
- 9:53SPEAKER_01: I'm scratching my head confused.
- 9:56SPEAKER_01: The people before us.
- 10:00SPEAKER_01: I mean, we can assume that there have been many before us.
- 10:03SPEAKER_01: Does that mean that we're about to be beset by darkness demons?
- 10:07SPEAKER_00: Potentially.
- 10:07SPEAKER_01: I know my eyes at Ace.
- 10:13SPEAKER_00: Adventure ho and all that.
- 10:14SPEAKER_01: All right, well, let's walk down the shaft.
- 10:21SPEAKER_01: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
- 10:24SPEAKER_01: Perhaps we should adopt our...
- 10:31SPEAKER_01: Our dungeon crawling mode, you know?
- 10:37SPEAKER_01: What, invisibility first and such?
- 10:41SPEAKER_01: I would say so.
- 10:42SPEAKER_01: And I look back to Dionysus.
- 10:45SPEAKER_01: Would you do the honors?
- 10:48SPEAKER_01: Clearly.
- 10:48SPEAKER_00: Just let my head up and make sure there's no traps or any harmful items.
- 10:55SPEAKER_00: And off and about.
- 10:58SPEAKER_03: As you guys are preparing to enter the shaft in front of you,
- 11:05SPEAKER_03: you hear a loud crack coming from behind you.
- 11:09SPEAKER_01: A loud crack?
- 11:12SPEAKER_03: Yeah, a loud crack, like wood splintering.
- 11:16SPEAKER_01: I immediately unsheathe Donna the Destroyer and turn around.
- 11:24Your dragon turtle friend has followed the ship that was now in
- 11:28the shallow waters
- 11:29and trying to hold position for you guys so they could take you
- 11:33out when you get
- 11:34SPEAKER_03: out.
- 11:36SPEAKER_02: Oh, fucking hell.
- 11:41SPEAKER_03: Elish speaks up.
- 11:44SPEAKER_03: You guys go.
- 11:45SPEAKER_03: I'll protect the ship.
- 11:48SPEAKER_01: Just you?
- 11:51SPEAKER_03: You haven't seen...
- 11:52SPEAKER_01: Well, and the crew.
- 11:53SPEAKER_03: Well, he's got the crew, too, so it's not just him.
- 12:01SPEAKER_03: Right,
- 12:02SPEAKER_03: the crew had,
- 12:03SPEAKER_03: they had some mercenaries with them,
- 12:06SPEAKER_03: and they have combat skills because you're with one of the core captains,
- 12:12SPEAKER_03: Ymir.
- 12:13SPEAKER_03: So, like, they know how to fight.
- 12:18SPEAKER_01: Don't die, Prince.
- 12:22SPEAKER_03: I should say the same to you all.
- 12:28And he goes into his fox form and dashes and begins running on
- 12:39water towards the ship.
- 12:41SPEAKER_01: That's actually pretty cool.
- 12:44SPEAKER_03: Be careful!
- 12:54SPEAKER_01: What was that, Ben?
- 12:55SPEAKER_01: I was like,
- 12:57SPEAKER_01: uh,
- 12:57SPEAKER_01: be careful as,
- 12:59SPEAKER_01: like,
- 13:00I'm too late to say anything because I couldn't comprehend what
- 13:03was going on
- 13:06SPEAKER_03: because there's a big giant dragon turtle at us again.
- 13:10SPEAKER_03: But anyways,
- 13:13so we're staying away from that big thing outside and we're
- 13:16going down the shaft,
- 13:17SPEAKER_01: correct?
- 13:18SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we shouldn't dally.
- 13:22SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 13:23SPEAKER_00: Can we dilly?
- 13:23SPEAKER_01: No, Ella's
- 13:27SPEAKER_01: We can fill it down the shaft.
- 13:30SPEAKER_01: I continue to sneer at Ace and then I follow him.
- 13:32SPEAKER_03: Stop adding verbs and adjectives in front of the shaft.
- 13:37SPEAKER_03: This is going to get bad.
- 13:39SPEAKER_03: Real bad, real fast.
- 13:41SPEAKER_01: You mean the long shaft?
- 13:44SPEAKER_01: Right, the long dark shaft.
- 13:46SPEAKER_01: Is it a jagged shaft?
- 13:48SPEAKER_03: Yeah, this is bad.
- 13:49SPEAKER_01: Is it curved?
- 13:50SPEAKER_01: Does it curve down, you know, as you get lower?
- 13:53SPEAKER_01: It's not.
- 13:53SPEAKER_03: It is fully straight.
- 13:57SPEAKER_03: An even and symmetrical.
- 14:00SPEAKER_01: An even and symmetrical.
- 14:01SPEAKER_01: Is it a thick shaft?
- 14:03SPEAKER_00: Is it like... Could we stand side by side?
- 14:07SPEAKER_03: I mean, you can.
- 14:09SPEAKER_03: You can fit five of you side by side.
- 14:13SPEAKER_01: Jesus Christ, this is actually huge.
- 14:17SPEAKER_03: It's also pitch black and dark.
- 14:21SPEAKER_01: That's a big shaft.
- 14:22SPEAKER_01: That is a big...
- 14:23SPEAKER_01: That is a big dark shaft right there.
- 14:26SPEAKER_01: That's like 25 feet wide, right?
- 14:28SPEAKER_02: It's intimidating.
- 14:31SPEAKER_02: Can I drop a big rock down the hole?
- 14:34SPEAKER_02: This is your own fault.
- 14:35SPEAKER_02: You opened this door, so you have nothing to complain about.
- 14:38Can you imagine if we go all the way down here and just
- 14:43encounter two large
- 14:44SPEAKER_00: boulders and nothing else?
- 14:45SPEAKER_03: I mean, seriously.
- 14:47SPEAKER_03: Two large boulders and a bunch of...
- 14:51SPEAKER_01: Can I throw a rock down there?
- 14:53SPEAKER_03: Sure.
- 14:53SPEAKER_03: You find a rock.
- 14:56SPEAKER_03: How big of a rock are you looking for?
- 15:00SPEAKER_03: Like, beach ball size.
- 15:02SPEAKER_03: Because it's five foot wide, so... Okay.
- 15:07SPEAKER_03: Make a strength check.
- 15:12SPEAKER_01: Is it just, like,
- 15:16Is it just a bait hole,
- 15:17or is it like a mining shack where we can walk down?
- 15:22SPEAKER_03: Well, I'm waiting for Dianus to find a rock.
- 15:29SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 15:29SPEAKER_03: That's the wrong thing, that's stealth.
- 15:32SPEAKER_03: Yeah, my bad.
- 15:35SPEAKER_03: That's fine, I'll use that for your stealth, okay, so that's fine.
- 15:38SPEAKER_03: But I need a strength check for the rock.
- 15:42SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
- 15:58you find one it's a it's a little heavy to pick up it's a
- 16:04little heavy it takes you
- 16:05a little bit and you kind of like you're you do the the the
- 16:10heavy object knee
- 16:11SPEAKER_03: waddle thing
- 16:13where,
- 16:13like,
- 16:13your legs are shaking because it's so heavy,
- 16:15but you get it,
- 16:16you have it.
- 16:17SPEAKER_01: Devlin, will you help your sister?
- 16:24SPEAKER_03: Uh, I should go see how far she got, but, yeah, I could help her.
- 16:29SPEAKER_03: Devlin comes over and picks up,
- 16:30SPEAKER_03: and then you guys usually both get it over to the entrance of the shaft.
- 16:36SPEAKER_03: We've got to drop our boulders on the shaft.
- 16:41SPEAKER_03: So...
- 16:44SPEAKER_03: Make a perception check.
- 16:47SPEAKER_03: With advantage, because your sister is helping you.
- 16:55SPEAKER_00: That advantage helped you.
- 17:08SPEAKER_03: A lot.
- 17:17SPEAKER_03: And you have 60 foot darkvision.
- 17:21SPEAKER_03: So looking down this wide dark shaft, you see that it is pitch black.
- 17:26SPEAKER_03: There's no light source whatsoever coming from it.
- 17:30SPEAKER_03: You do make out like long steps that go down.
- 17:36So it's not a straight down drop and it's not like a mining
- 17:39shaft that has a ladder or anything.
- 17:40SPEAKER_03: It's like more like
- 17:42SPEAKER_03: There's pyramid steps going down it.
- 17:45SPEAKER_03: Or something, just really long steps.
- 17:50SPEAKER_03: And they go for as far as you can see.
- 17:52SPEAKER_03: Like, your darkvision's 60 feet, and you just see steps.
- 17:56SPEAKER_03: You don't see anything else.
- 17:59SPEAKER_00: Alright, can I light a torch?
- 18:02SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 18:03SPEAKER_03: You can't light a torch, you're holding a boulder.
- 18:04SPEAKER_00: Oh, I thought I threw it down the hole already.
- 18:09SPEAKER_03: Alright, so...
- 18:11SPEAKER_03: How do you want to throw it down the hole?
- 18:15SPEAKER_00: Just like the heave-ho.
- 18:20SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 18:21SPEAKER_03: With Devlin's help, that's easy enough to do.
- 18:25SPEAKER_03: You do it on three,
- 18:27SPEAKER_03: heave-ho it down,
- 18:28SPEAKER_03: and it does the first thud,
- 18:32SPEAKER_03: because while you had help,
- 18:35SPEAKER_03: it didn't go very far.
- 18:37SPEAKER_03: So it thuds on like the third step down.
- 18:40SPEAKER_03: And then because it's so heavy, it just kind of rolls.
- 18:43SPEAKER_03: It doesn't really bounce anymore.
- 18:46And you hear the k-dunk,
- 18:47k-dunk,
- 18:48k-dunk as it's going down until you don't hear it anymore.
- 18:54SPEAKER_00: Looks like we're safe from any pitfalls on these stairs.
- 18:59SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 18:59SPEAKER_00: Hopefully I didn't knock any of the stairs out with that boulder.
- 19:02SPEAKER_00: Yet.
- 19:03SPEAKER_01: Hopefully.
- 19:06SPEAKER_03: Alright, so now you want to light a torch as well?
- 19:10SPEAKER_00: Yes, and we'll start holding all your steps.
- 19:15SPEAKER_01: Will we all need to light torches?
- 19:19SPEAKER_03: You're currently a floating torch.
- 19:26SPEAKER_01: Do we all need to light torches in order to see effectively?
- 19:30SPEAKER_03: Nope.
- 19:32SPEAKER_03: It depends on if you have darkvision or not.
- 19:35SPEAKER_01: I don't have dark vision.
- 19:36SPEAKER_03: So you'd be relying on the torchlight,
- 19:38SPEAKER_03: which is,
- 19:39SPEAKER_03: I believe,
- 19:41SPEAKER_03: a 10-foot light radius or a 20-foot light radius.
- 19:44SPEAKER_03: Something like that.
- 19:45SPEAKER_03: But that's from where Dianus is.
- 19:48SPEAKER_01: I'm going to light my own torch.
- 19:51SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 19:52SPEAKER_01: I'm going to hand mine to Penn.
- 19:54SPEAKER_03: Okay, so Penn and Malachi have torches.
- 19:57SPEAKER_03: This way that you're not a floating torch.
- 20:00SPEAKER_03: Go ahead, Ace.
- 20:02SPEAKER_00: Just looking around,
- 20:03is there anything else besides the sign outside of the shaft
- 20:07that we might have
- 20:09SPEAKER_00: missed?
- 20:09SPEAKER_03: No,
- 20:11SPEAKER_03: this island's pretty flat,
- 20:14except for the rocky shore that you kind of had to navigate
- 20:18your way over.
- 20:18SPEAKER_03: And you see on the other side,
- 20:21SPEAKER_03: on the far side of the island,
- 20:23SPEAKER_03: it's not really lake,
- 20:25SPEAKER_03: it starts turning into marshland.
- 20:29The marsh.
- 20:30SPEAKER_03: So while you don't know how deep it is,
- 20:33SPEAKER_03: because marsh and swamps can still get pretty deep water-wise,
- 20:36SPEAKER_03: you do see that it's not just water.
- 20:38SPEAKER_03: There starts to be marshland on the other side.
- 20:43SPEAKER_00: Gotcha.
- 20:45SPEAKER_03: But no, this area that you're in right now is actually pretty flat.
- 20:49SPEAKER_03: You can see for a distance in all directions for the most part.
- 20:53SPEAKER_03: And you could see the horizon line like down looking towards the ocean.
- 20:58SPEAKER_03: You could see the there's mountains way to the south,
- 21:01SPEAKER_03: the mountains,
- 21:01SPEAKER_03: and you could see like the tree line to your east.
- 21:10SPEAKER_00: Very well.
- 21:12SPEAKER_03: What is the marching order for going down the wide shaft?
- 21:19I'll go first yeah Dionys side by side like the Wizard of Oz oh
- 21:24no no no no but I
- 21:29think it should be the dungeon crawl order so Dionys and Ace I
- 21:36will me and Pen in
- 21:38the middle I think Devlin should actually bring up the rear
- 21:43since she's also like a
- 21:44SPEAKER_01: hunter like Dionys but that's up to you guys
- 21:49SPEAKER_01: She's awesome.
- 21:51SPEAKER_03: Say again?
- 21:52SPEAKER_03: Deionis, where do you want Draco?
- 21:56SPEAKER_00: Um, come back by seven.
- 22:04SPEAKER_03: Okay, so your sister will keep Draco company.
- 22:08SPEAKER_03: So, this will be your marching order.
- 22:21SPEAKER_03: Come on, there we go.
- 22:23SPEAKER_03: So the six of you will be heading down the shaft.
- 22:39SPEAKER_03: What are you all trying to remain stealthy as a group?
- 22:47SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 22:47SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 22:50SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 22:51SPEAKER_03: Um... Malachi and Pen roll stealth checks with disadvantage.
- 22:57SPEAKER_03: Ace, you just roll a straight stealth check.
- 23:01SPEAKER_01: Why disadvantage?
- 23:02SPEAKER_03: You're holding torches.
- 23:04SPEAKER_03: In a completely dark space.
- 23:06SPEAKER_03: Ah, 11.
- 23:21SPEAKER_00: Oh my god.
- 23:23SPEAKER_01: That was... Um... 4.
- 23:35SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 23:45SPEAKER_03: Sure, you guys are stealthy.
- 23:46SPEAKER_03: This is a dark place.
- 23:47SPEAKER_03: What could live down here?
- 23:50SPEAKER_02: Oh boy.
- 23:52SPEAKER_03: Devlin rolled a 14, by the way, so... At least you have Dayanus!
- 24:00SPEAKER_02: She's basically invisible.
- 24:07SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 24:09SPEAKER_03: Yeah,
- 24:09SPEAKER_03: she has advantage on her stealth checks even without the invisibility,
- 24:12SPEAKER_03: so...
- 24:15SPEAKER_03: Plus I have a plus 11,
- 24:17SPEAKER_03: so...
- 24:18SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 24:18SPEAKER_03: Your sister has a plus 10.
- 24:22SPEAKER_03: And she rolled low.
- 24:27SPEAKER_03: But regardless,
- 24:29you guys believe that you are stealthy enough in a dark chamber
- 24:36that there couldn't
- 24:37SPEAKER_03: be much alive down here anyway.
- 24:41SPEAKER_00: That's what we thought with the banshee.
- 24:44SPEAKER_00: But see, he said alive.
- 24:46SPEAKER_00: He was alive.
- 24:48SPEAKER_01: I shudder at the thought of that banshee.
- 24:57SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 24:58SPEAKER_03: So you move down at a cautious pace.
- 25:03SPEAKER_03: You get 30 feet in.
- 25:10SPEAKER_03: 60 feet in.
- 25:13SPEAKER_03: 100 feet in.
- 25:15SPEAKER_03: Still dark.
- 25:16SPEAKER_03: Still going downstairs.
- 25:19SPEAKER_00: Have we caught up with the rock yet?
- 25:20SPEAKER_00: Nope.
- 25:22SPEAKER_03: You do see some of the stairs.
- 25:26SPEAKER_03: Looking down Dayanus and Ace especially,
- 25:30SPEAKER_03: you would see that one,
- 25:34SPEAKER_03: which is obvious,
- 25:35SPEAKER_03: Dayanus has good aim because it hit almost the dead center of every step.
- 25:42SPEAKER_03: And you see where it hit.
- 25:44SPEAKER_03: There's chips in the otherwise perfect stonework.
- 25:49SPEAKER_00: This is why we can't have nice things die.
- 25:53SPEAKER_03: That's exactly what I was just gonna say, honey.
- 25:59SPEAKER_03: 150 feet in.
- 26:02SPEAKER_01: Can I cast Divine Sense?
- 26:06SPEAKER_03: Uh, sure.
- 26:06SPEAKER_03: What's the range on it?
- 26:09SPEAKER_01: Uh, 60 feet.
- 26:12SPEAKER_03: And how long does it last?
- 26:14SPEAKER_01: Um... Ah, shit.
- 26:17SPEAKER_01: It's just, uh, just until the end of, uh, the end of my next turn.
- 26:21SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so six seconds.
- 26:23SPEAKER_01: Do I sense anything in those six seconds?
- 26:28SPEAKER_03: At 150 feet?
- 26:28SPEAKER_03: No.
- 26:32SPEAKER_03: It's getting colder, too, because you're underground.
- 26:37SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 26:38SPEAKER_03: You start...
- 26:40SPEAKER_03: You don't know if it's the darkness,
- 26:43SPEAKER_03: or if even though this is a wide shaft,
- 26:47SPEAKER_03: it's still making you feel claustrophobic.
- 26:49SPEAKER_03: You just feel...
- 26:52SPEAKER_03: uneasy as you continue further down.
- 26:57SPEAKER_03: 200 feet.
- 27:01SPEAKER_02: I'm going to detect magic.
- 27:06SPEAKER_03: That is 10 minutes and 30 feet?
- 27:08SPEAKER_02: 30 feet, yes.
- 27:14SPEAKER_02: 10 minutes, yes.
- 27:17SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 27:18SPEAKER_03: So you're concentrating on detect magic?
- 27:23other than you know you're you sense all of your guys items and
- 27:27you know all of
- 27:27draco because he's technically magic right uh all the usual
- 27:34stuff yeah all the
- 27:35SPEAKER_03: usual stuff but you don't sense anything different at 250 feet 300 feet
- 27:47SPEAKER_03: 350 feet.
- 27:49SPEAKER_03: Still going.
- 27:50SPEAKER_03: This sense of unease is still, it's nagging at.
- 27:53SPEAKER_03: Especially you, Malachi, and you, Pen, having to rely on torches.
- 28:01SPEAKER_00: This is a villain, if I've ever seen one.
- 28:05SPEAKER_02: I'm just trying to put on a brave face, but I'm getting more concerned.
- 28:10SPEAKER_03: Right, like, it's not a scared feeling, it's like a... just a dis-ease.
- 28:18Real quick,
- 28:19but I did use divine sense like no one in our group pinged on
- 28:23me,
- 28:24right?
- 28:26SPEAKER_03: No, okay, nope 350 feet 400 feet
- 28:43Dionys at 450 feet you see what you believe to be the floor the
- 28:49bottom of this
- 28:51SPEAKER_00: shaft Do we see the boulder?
- 29:07SPEAKER_03: You do, actually.
- 29:09SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 29:10SPEAKER_03: As you get within 20 feet of the floor,
- 29:14SPEAKER_03: so you're on the second to last step,
- 29:17SPEAKER_03: you do see the boulder rolled about 15 feet from the bottom of the steps.
- 29:23SPEAKER_02: Is it still intact?
- 29:27SPEAKER_03: I mean, there's definitely chips missing, and there's...
- 29:31SPEAKER_03: like, little pebbles across the floor.
- 29:33SPEAKER_03: And the stairs were a little broken, but she found a decent boulder.
- 29:38SPEAKER_03: She shouldn't pick it up.
- 29:41SPEAKER_03: That's the last boulder.
- 29:46SPEAKER_01: What are the walls?
- 29:47SPEAKER_01: Oops, sorry, go ahead.
- 29:48SPEAKER_01: That's okay.
- 29:48SPEAKER_00: I was just complimenting the boulder.
- 29:50SPEAKER_00: It's a well-constructed boulder.
- 29:53SPEAKER_00: That's a pretty boulder.
- 29:54SPEAKER_01: That's a nice... You guys are complimenting nature.
- 30:00SPEAKER_00: No, we're complimenting Dianus' ability to choose a fine boulder.
- 30:05SPEAKER_03: I was picking fine boulders.
- 30:08SPEAKER_03: They're not complimenting the shaft, so.
- 30:10SPEAKER_03: No, no.
- 30:13SPEAKER_02: Thank goodness.
- 30:15SPEAKER_00: Bring your torch up here.
- 30:16SPEAKER_00: What did the shaft look like?
- 30:19SPEAKER_00: Like, if I hold a...
- 30:26uh the torch up to the uh up to a wall does it look like does
- 30:30it is it made of
- 30:31anything in particular or is it just kind of it is unnaturally
- 30:35smooth stone
- 30:38interesting for being this far underground it looks like it's
- 30:41been something's been
- 30:43done to it to make it like this smooth and strong to not have
- 30:48at least withered
- 30:49SPEAKER_03: away being in a very wet environment otherwise
- 30:55SPEAKER_00: Perhaps some grinding in the wet environment.
- 31:00SPEAKER_03: Say again?
- 31:02SPEAKER_00: Perhaps some intense grinding in the wet environment.
- 31:06SPEAKER_00: A smooth dent.
- 31:09SPEAKER_00: That looks like a lot of friction there.
- 31:11SPEAKER_02: I was going to ask if there's a scent that's coming off from the...
- 31:17SPEAKER_03: It's all just building on the shaft.
- 31:20SPEAKER_03: Just... So, the...
- 31:25Did the boulder stop because it's at the bottom of the shaft,
- 31:28or did it just lose momentum?
- 31:33SPEAKER_03: It rolled about 15 feet from the bottom of the stairs and then stopped,
- 31:36SPEAKER_03: so it rolled so it had momentum,
- 31:39SPEAKER_03: and then it just looks like it probably lost momentum.
- 31:43SPEAKER_03: I mean, you all watched them throw it.
- 31:44SPEAKER_03: It landed on the third step down, so they didn't throw it down very far.
- 31:49SPEAKER_02: But we're at the bottom of the shaft right now.
- 31:54SPEAKER_03: Uh, you guys are like on the second to last and last steps.
- 31:57SPEAKER_03: Are you stepping down off of the stairs?
- 32:00SPEAKER_00: We were trying to determine if we are on the floor for certain.
- 32:07SPEAKER_02: Did someone give Asa a torch?
- 32:11SPEAKER_00: I told Malachi to look, but... Oh, okay.
- 32:14SPEAKER_03: I did.
- 32:14SPEAKER_00: I did look.
- 32:15SPEAKER_03: Yes, you are on the foreseeable bottom.
- 32:22Can I do the whole,
- 32:23like,
- 32:25dip my toe and press down to make sure it's a floor?
- 32:31SPEAKER_03: It's a floor.
- 32:32SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 32:34SPEAKER_01: Is it a floor?
- 32:37SPEAKER_03: It's a solid floor.
- 32:39SPEAKER_03: Smooth.
- 32:39SPEAKER_01: It's not at all.
- 32:41SPEAKER_01: Are there any other connecting tunnels?
- 32:45SPEAKER_01: You cannot see.
- 32:46SPEAKER_01: You have 20 feet of light.
- 32:53SPEAKER_03: Let's switch you guys over to the map you should be on now.
- 33:05SPEAKER_00: Oh god, it's plaid.
- 33:08SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that's just the way it ends up looking.
- 33:12SPEAKER_00: I have concerns when it's plaid.
- 33:13SPEAKER_02: Alright, so... Who's got darkvision?
- 33:19SPEAKER_02: The two people up front, yeah.
- 33:22SPEAKER_02: What are you guys seeing?
- 33:25SPEAKER_03: We'll get to that in just a moment.
- 33:27SPEAKER_03: We'll get to that in just a moment.
- 33:32SPEAKER_00: We've entered a 1970s living room.
- 33:35SPEAKER_00: It's hell.
- 33:36SPEAKER_02: Oh, no.
- 33:39SPEAKER_02: Yeah, man.
- 33:41SPEAKER_00: Prepare yourself for that.
- 33:42SPEAKER_00: He's got the little lamp in the corner.
- 33:44SPEAKER_01: I always thought my grandmother's living room was pretty cool.
- 33:47SPEAKER_01: It was, like, groovy, you know what I mean?
- 33:49SPEAKER_01: Like,
- 33:50Like Soul Train style like she had like those those styles like
- 33:54the old-school like
- 33:54SPEAKER_01: 70s style the painting like that Fringer Wow Okay,
- 34:01SPEAKER_01: so Draco is good
- 34:25SPEAKER_03: So, um, Ace Dianis, you just see a hallway in front of you.
- 34:33SPEAKER_00: I'm going to take the plunge.
- 34:34SPEAKER_00: I will step on the floor for the sake of everyone.
- 34:37SPEAKER_03: Alright.
- 34:38SPEAKER_03: Step on the floor.
- 34:41SPEAKER_03: I'm going to be ready to grab Ace.
- 34:44Okay.
- 34:48SPEAKER_00: I appear to be not dead.
- 34:49SPEAKER_00: I think it's safe to proceed.
- 34:51SPEAKER_03: Uh, we're gonna do... Let's see.
- 34:58SPEAKER_03: 60 feet.
- 34:59SPEAKER_03: That would be... I can see about that much down from where you are now.
- 35:13SPEAKER_03: Ace and Dianas, uh...
- 35:17SPEAKER_03: Malachi and Pen, you can't see that far down.
- 35:19SPEAKER_03: What is that?
- 35:22SPEAKER_03: Oh, okay.
- 35:26SPEAKER_03: Are you guys going down the hallway?
- 35:29SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah.
- 35:29SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 35:30SPEAKER_00: I'm going to check for any kind of secret doors or other traps, even.
- 35:37SPEAKER_03: Make a perception.
- 35:38SPEAKER_03: No, we'll just use your pen.
- 35:43SPEAKER_03: Unless you want to roll again, I'll just use the one you rolled already.
- 35:48SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you can use that one.
- 35:50As you guys move down the hallways,
- 36:00that sense of unease has gotten stronger.
- 36:05SPEAKER_03: And it sounds like there's this ever-present but
- 36:14SPEAKER_03: Very sporadic and intermittent cloth-dragging sound along the floor.
- 36:19SPEAKER_02: Hmm.
- 36:23SPEAKER_02: It's coming from directly ahead of us?
- 36:26SPEAKER_02: Mummies.
- 36:27SPEAKER_03: Sounds like it's coming from all around you.
- 36:29SPEAKER_03: Except for behind you, where you just came from.
- 36:32SPEAKER_02: Mummies.
- 36:34SPEAKER_02: I mean, you could be right, you know.
- 36:40SPEAKER_02: Damn undead.
- 36:53SPEAKER_03: At what pace do you want to move through these holes?
- 36:59SPEAKER_01: Cautiously.
- 37:02SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 37:02SPEAKER_03: So slow pace.
- 37:04SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 37:05SPEAKER_03: So half your movement speeds.
- 37:07SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 37:16SPEAKER_03: So you move
- 37:21SPEAKER_03: 15 feet in.
- 37:22SPEAKER_03: Penn, something pings on your Detect Magic.
- 37:30SPEAKER_01: Hey, guys, be careful.
- 37:31SPEAKER_01: There might be a trap.
- 37:31SPEAKER_01: I sense something.
- 37:35SPEAKER_01: Whoa, what happened there?
- 37:36SPEAKER_01: Are we supposed to see all that?
- 37:38Oh.
- 37:41SPEAKER_03: Why did that happen?
- 37:43SPEAKER_00: Oh, no.
- 37:44SPEAKER_03: That's fine.
- 37:46SPEAKER_03: I don't see anything.
- 37:47SPEAKER_03: I'm closing my eyes.
- 37:51you can't actually see the uh well what's there we'll just
- 38:00assume it's a dairy farm
- 38:02you never know it could be an underground dairy farm it kind of
- 38:06look like it but
- 38:07SPEAKER_03: yeah then you something pings at the edge of your your detect magic
- 38:16SPEAKER_03: You've also got about five minutes left on your Detect Magic.
- 38:24SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 38:25SPEAKER_03: There's something ahead.
- 38:28SPEAKER_03: Just out of the range.
- 38:31SPEAKER_03: Ace, roll a d20 for me.
- 38:38SPEAKER_03: I hope you roll even.
- 38:42SPEAKER_00: I did.
- 38:49SPEAKER_03: It's another 15 feet.
- 38:51SPEAKER_03: There's still something pinging, but you guys don't really see anything.
- 38:58SPEAKER_01: Is it getting closer to us?
- 39:02SPEAKER_03: You got closer to it.
- 39:06SPEAKER_00: So it's not moving.
- 39:09SPEAKER_03: Not currently, not that you can tell.
- 39:14SPEAKER_03: Another 15 feet.
- 39:16SPEAKER_03: As you move this next 15 feet,
- 39:18SPEAKER_03: Ace and Malachi,
- 39:20SPEAKER_03: you look to your left and see that there's just a mummy standing there,
- 39:31SPEAKER_03: not moving,
- 39:31SPEAKER_03: not responding to your presence.
- 39:34SPEAKER_00: I fucking knew it!
- 39:35SPEAKER_00: A mummy?
- 39:37Yep,
- 39:38it's not moving,
- 39:39it's just against the wall,
- 39:40it's not responding to your presence.
- 39:43SPEAKER_00: I don't trust it.
- 39:44SPEAKER_00: Is that what I'm detecting is magical?
- 39:46SPEAKER_03: Uh, it is in the place, like, uh, do you guys point it out?
- 39:51SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 39:52SPEAKER_03: Uh, yes, Ken, that is what is magical.
- 39:55SPEAKER_01: Is it, is it something on him or him, period?
- 40:01SPEAKER_03: It's him.
- 40:03SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 40:07I am going to take some of the food out of my bag and put it at
- 40:12its feet as an offering.
- 40:15SPEAKER_01: Do mummies eat food?
- 40:20SPEAKER_03: You don't know.
- 40:22SPEAKER_03: None of you guys have never encountered mummies.
- 40:26SPEAKER_01: I'm whispering at this point.
- 40:27SPEAKER_01: I'm like, what are you doing?
- 40:30about Egyptian mummies and food is really important in the
- 40:34afterlife and shut up.
- 40:37SPEAKER_03: What is this place called Egypt?
- 40:39SPEAKER_03: What's Egypt?
- 40:41SPEAKER_01: What is an Egyptian mummy?
- 40:44SPEAKER_01: It's a book.
- 40:46SPEAKER_00: It's a book.
- 40:49SPEAKER_03: That's actually an accurate response from Ace.
- 40:53SPEAKER_03: That's actually good.
- 40:56SPEAKER_03: I'll have to read that book.
- 40:57SPEAKER_03: That sounds interesting.
- 40:59SPEAKER_03: It is one of the books you have on you, Ace.
- 41:03You did get put here with some of your books,
- 41:07so...
- 41:08I will be firing that off of you,
- 41:10Ace.
- 41:12SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 41:13SPEAKER_01: Ace, are you referring to some of the toons in the Jungle Occult?
- 41:19SPEAKER_00: What was that?
- 41:20SPEAKER_01: Are you referring to some of the toons in the Jungle Occult?
- 41:27SPEAKER_00: I'm sure a lot of tombs probably have similar rules.
- 41:35SPEAKER_03: You guys move another 15 feet.
- 41:38SPEAKER_03: Dianus and Pen,
- 41:40SPEAKER_03: to your right,
- 41:42there's a mummy that's kind of just walking aimlessly in random
- 41:48directions around.
- 41:51SPEAKER_03: Doesn't really notice you, but it's moving.
- 41:54SPEAKER_00: You look back at Ace and be like,
- 41:57SPEAKER_00: Mummies?
- 41:57SPEAKER_00: Are they supposed to walk?
- 42:00SPEAKER_00: I thought there were dead people wrapped in, like, cloth.
- 42:02SPEAKER_00: What's going on here?
- 42:04SPEAKER_00: Explain to me, Ace.
- 42:05SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
- 42:08Some of them,
- 42:08they've read that they've been cursed,
- 42:11but usually they try to murder.
- 42:14SPEAKER_00: They don't just meander.
- 42:15SPEAKER_03: Are you just going past it?
- 42:23SPEAKER_02: Yeah,
- 42:23SPEAKER_02: we're not gonna...
- 42:24SPEAKER_00: Yeah,
- 42:24SPEAKER_00: let's try to stealthily get past it,
- 42:26SPEAKER_00: since now that I know that they murder people.
- 42:29SPEAKER_03: I mean, you're still fine.
- 42:30SPEAKER_03: You're moving at a slow pace, so you're being very cautious.
- 42:34SPEAKER_03: Are these... Oh, I'm really cautious now.
- 42:38SPEAKER_00: Are these mumbies,
- 42:39SPEAKER_00: like,
- 42:40SPEAKER_00: stiff,
- 42:41SPEAKER_00: original Night of the Living Dead zombies,
- 42:43SPEAKER_00: or do they seem like they might be more...
- 42:47SPEAKER_00: more...
- 42:48SPEAKER_00: life...
- 42:48SPEAKER_00: facing Brendan Fraser down?
- 42:51SPEAKER_00: Sort of, mumbies.
- 42:52SPEAKER_03: They're...
- 42:55SPEAKER_03: the cloth bodies are very filled out.
- 42:58SPEAKER_03: They're not just skeletons.
- 43:01SPEAKER_01: Which means they're runners.
- 43:03Fuck.
- 43:04SPEAKER_00: Where's Brandon Fraser?
- 43:05SPEAKER_01: It just means that they wrapped them properly to preserve the bodies.
- 43:11SPEAKER_01: The whole point of mollifying them.
- 43:16SPEAKER_01: Oh.
- 43:18SPEAKER_01: And can you control them?
- 43:23SPEAKER_01: Since you can make...
- 43:24SPEAKER_01: Undead, right?
- 43:26SPEAKER_01: Yeah, right.
- 43:28SPEAKER_03: But to take control over an already, I guess, living undead?
- 43:36SPEAKER_03: No.
- 43:37SPEAKER_03: But if he was dead, then I can bring him back.
- 43:40SPEAKER_03: Like, can I charm him?
- 43:43I could,
- 43:43probably,
- 43:44but I won't have total control as if I brought him back from
- 43:49death.
- 43:50SPEAKER_03: You can only charm humanoids if it's a charmed person.
- 43:56SPEAKER_03: Well, it's a mummy, so I figured they'd be a human.
- 44:01SPEAKER_03: They might not be.
- 44:04SPEAKER_03: Gotcha.
- 44:08SPEAKER_03: You see this in front of you now as you cross this threshold.
- 44:14SPEAKER_03: Another 15.
- 44:14SPEAKER_03: I mean... Penn, you're getting a lot of pings on your detect magic.
- 44:22SPEAKER_03: A lot.
- 44:23SPEAKER_01: Same type as before?
- 44:26SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 44:27SPEAKER_03: Except twice as many.
- 44:30SPEAKER_02: We got... I think we got a lot more mommies in here.
- 44:34SPEAKER_03: Which way are you going to stealthily move?
- 44:42SPEAKER_01: Go north or south, guys.
- 44:46SPEAKER_00: Do we see any doors in either direction?
- 44:51just wide open space actually you and dianus would see uh like
- 45:0010 feet into this
- 45:01SPEAKER_03: room so there's a door there uh south
- 45:15SPEAKER_03: So you would see a little more then.
- 45:17SPEAKER_03: But south just keeps going in a huge, like, entrance way.
- 45:22SPEAKER_03: That's not what I want to do.
- 45:23SPEAKER_03: That's what I want to do.
- 45:26SPEAKER_03: Like, south just keeps going in, like, an open hallway type deal.
- 45:31SPEAKER_00: Do you want Di and I to, like, sneak up and see if there's anything?
- 45:37SPEAKER_00: Sneak back?
- 45:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah, do that.
- 45:39SPEAKER_02: We'll hold the port right here.
- 45:41SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 45:43SPEAKER_03: Where are you sneaking to?
- 45:46SPEAKER_00: To the northeast.
- 45:47SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 45:48SPEAKER_02: Ace should be able to turn invisible, right?
- 45:52SPEAKER_03: Only if she doesn't move or take an action in darkness.
- 45:55SPEAKER_03: And she is not currently in darkness because your torches are lit.
- 45:59SPEAKER_00: Over there, I just have to hold still once I get there.
- 46:03SPEAKER_03: Are you keeping your slow pace like you were?
- 46:06SPEAKER_03: Are you moving at normal speed?
- 46:10SPEAKER_00: We'll go normal across the room.
- 46:12SPEAKER_00: Doesn't seem like there's anything in the way.
- 46:16SPEAKER_03: As you go normal across the room,
- 46:19SPEAKER_03: you do pass between two more mummies that are just kind of moving around.
- 46:41SPEAKER_03: As you get up to here, so you move another 15 feet,
- 46:48uh we'll reveal this for you you see a large open room but in
- 47:08here you see lots of mummies
- 47:15SPEAKER_03: Standing, staring at the entrance.
- 47:19SPEAKER_00: Perhaps we should just back away very slowly.
- 47:24SPEAKER_00: That sounds like a great idea.
- 47:28SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 47:30SPEAKER_03: So you, at a slow pace, you take your time backing away.
- 47:33You almost bump into another mummy,
- 47:35but you sense it and it kind of just keeps walking around.
- 47:41SPEAKER_03: And you make your way back to the group.
- 47:48SPEAKER_00: Well, guys, there is a shit ton of mummies up over here.
- 47:51SPEAKER_00: Yeah, probably not that way.
- 47:53SPEAKER_00: Probably not.
- 47:54SPEAKER_03: You also saw that there was a dead end.
- 47:57SPEAKER_03: It didn't look like it went anywhere.
- 48:01SPEAKER_01: More of these Egyptian mummy things that Ace was talking about.
- 48:04SPEAKER_03: Yeah, Ace and Diana, she saw a nine in there.
- 48:15SPEAKER_02: South it is, I guess.
- 48:19SPEAKER_00: Probably for the best.
- 48:21SPEAKER_00: Slow and steady.
- 48:22SPEAKER_02: I think that's what the sign is trying to tell us about the darkness.
- 48:28SPEAKER_01: If we would have attacked the mummy as soon as we seen it,
- 48:32we would have called the attention of all these among us
- 48:36through the darkness.
- 48:37SPEAKER_01: And we would have got immersed in the darkness.
- 48:42SPEAKER_03: Back at your slow pace.
- 48:44SPEAKER_03: Malachi and Ace right next to you.
- 48:47SPEAKER_03: Another mummy.
- 48:47SPEAKER_03: It's right there.
- 48:50SPEAKER_00: I don't like it.
- 48:52SPEAKER_00: Bye.
- 48:53SPEAKER_03: It's just standing there.
- 48:55SPEAKER_02: Not moving.
- 48:56SPEAKER_03: Not moving.
- 48:57SPEAKER_03: That one's not moving.
- 48:58SPEAKER_03: It's just standing there.
- 49:00SPEAKER_01: I'm not going to antagonize it.
- 49:02SPEAKER_01: I'm just going to put a hand on Asha's shoulder.
- 49:05SPEAKER_01: I'm just going to kind of nudge her forward.
- 49:07SPEAKER_03: Keep going.
- 49:09SPEAKER_03: 15 more feet.
- 49:11SPEAKER_03: You see a mummy just kind of walking in your peripheral.
- 49:21SPEAKER_01: What is it, just walking in a circle?
- 49:23SPEAKER_03: Yeah, they're just walking in circles.
- 49:27SPEAKER_01: This reminds me of, like, Silent Hill.
- 49:29SPEAKER_00: Uh, you get here.
- 49:30SPEAKER_03: Let me reveal more for you.
- 49:45SPEAKER_00: I'd honestly be very impressed if these zombies were just a bunch of,
- 49:48SPEAKER_00: like,
- 49:48SPEAKER_00: dairy farmers trying to eke out a living making cheeses underground.
- 49:53SPEAKER_03: So you see two large statue-like things,
- 50:01but you're not entirely sure if they're statues or something
- 50:04that is very,
- 50:05SPEAKER_03: very,
- 50:06SPEAKER_03: very securely wrapped up and just stationary.
- 50:10but they're big they're big as you get closer they're they're
- 50:16what size is that
- 50:20they're like 10 12 feet tall just cloth wrapped humanoids
- 50:33standing there unmoving
- 50:36SPEAKER_03: on like a pedestal
- 50:39SPEAKER_03: Like a statue, but not made of stone.
- 50:43SPEAKER_01: From this distance, I don't think I can see them.
- 50:45SPEAKER_03: Only Ace and Dianus can.
- 50:47SPEAKER_03: It's up to you guys, what do you do?
- 50:52I don't know what these guys feel about these two big dudes in
- 51:00front of us.
- 51:09kind of like whisper back like hey guys let's keep moving but
- 51:15just keep an eye on
- 51:16those guys okay you guys keep moving forward no problems no
- 51:30movement from the ones
- 51:37SPEAKER_03: that are there
- 51:45SPEAKER_03: This all could have gone very differently.
- 51:52SPEAKER_03: Another 15 feet, you are met with an entrance of sorts.
- 52:09SPEAKER_03: Do you, what do you do?
- 52:14SPEAKER_02: I mean,
- 52:15SPEAKER_02: We continue, right?
- 52:18SPEAKER_00: Just walk again.
- 52:19SPEAKER_00: Just check the traps, stuff like that.
- 52:23Yeah,
- 52:23is there anything that might suggest that we,
- 52:26like,
- 52:27strangers shouldn't enter the room?
- 52:29SPEAKER_00: No.
- 52:29SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 52:34SPEAKER_03: That doesn't look any different.
- 52:35SPEAKER_03: The floor is still just solid stone.
- 52:39SPEAKER_03: Like, there's no indication that anything is trapped.
- 52:44I'm going to just quickly run back and leave some food
- 52:48offerings for the guards as well.
- 52:50SPEAKER_00: Just in case.
- 52:51SPEAKER_03: The two giant ones?
- 52:53SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 52:53SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 52:54SPEAKER_03: You do too.
- 52:56SPEAKER_03: Mark off however much you're leaving from your inventory.
- 53:00SPEAKER_03: Unless it's just the snacks that you always perpetually pack.
- 53:05SPEAKER_02: How much food do you think will appease things of that size?
- 53:09SPEAKER_00: They might appreciate that I have mummified food.
- 53:12SPEAKER_00: Not everyone carries that.
- 53:13oh my as you enter this room let me do this purple lights
- 53:32purple torches around all
- 53:34SPEAKER_03: of these columns light
- 53:39The light seems to stay contained within this room and it does
- 53:42not leak into the
- 53:43SPEAKER_03: hallway that you came from.
- 53:47There are two large stone slabs in this room as you get to the
- 53:53center of it.
- 53:53SPEAKER_03: And you can all see now, Penn, your detect magic is gone.
- 53:58SPEAKER_03: And both your and Malachi's torches are null and void in here.
- 54:04SPEAKER_01: Wait, so the darkness is just stuck in that corridor?
- 54:08SPEAKER_03: It was dark in here until you entered and all the purple lights lit up.
- 54:12SPEAKER_03: All the purple torches around all the columns lit up.
- 54:14SPEAKER_03: And now you can see in here.
- 54:17SPEAKER_02: The columns are the gray circles?
- 54:20SPEAKER_03: The black circles, yeah.
- 54:22SPEAKER_02: Black circles, OK.
- 54:24SPEAKER_03: And there are two large stone slabs kind of offset from each other.
- 54:37SPEAKER_03: You see off to the west, there is some type of other room, maybe?
- 54:49SPEAKER_03: You're not entirely sure.
- 54:51SPEAKER_03: None of you can really see into it.
- 54:54SPEAKER_03: It's like the darkness eats up the light.
- 55:01SPEAKER_03: Are there any... Going in this direction?
- 55:02SPEAKER_03: Oh, sorry.
- 55:03SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yep, over there into the west.
- 55:06SPEAKER_00: Are there any symbols in this room?
- 55:07SPEAKER_00: Like, embalming herbs?
- 55:16SPEAKER_03: Make a perception check.
- 55:20SPEAKER_03: Actually, no.
- 55:20SPEAKER_03: With your passive perception... There's something...
- 55:32off it's not embalming it's not like and it's not like death
- 55:37the things may have
- 55:38been down here much longer than any of that would have survived
- 55:50can i walk up to
- 55:51SPEAKER_03: one of the platforms and inspect it uh sure is anyone going with him
- 56:04SPEAKER_00: I'll go.
- 56:06SPEAKER_00: Me too.
- 56:08SPEAKER_00: I'll go to the answer one.
- 56:10SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 56:11SPEAKER_03: So, Malachi, which one do you want to go to?
- 56:14SPEAKER_01: The one closest to me.
- 56:18SPEAKER_03: Malachi, Ace, and Dianus will go to that one.
- 56:24SPEAKER_03: Pen, Devlin, and Draco are going to the other one.
- 56:34SPEAKER_03: As you inspect the stone slabs closer,
- 56:37a purple light begins to emanate from underneath where the top
- 56:42slab meets the rest
- 56:44SPEAKER_03: of the slab.
- 56:46SPEAKER_03: And the tops of these stone slabs begin to move on their own.
- 56:50SPEAKER_03: You realize that this was a tomb.
- 56:56SPEAKER_00: Oh no, these are the sarcophagi.
- 56:59SPEAKER_03: After a few moments,
- 57:00two large mummified monstrosities show themselves crawling out
- 57:07of the tombs.
- 57:12SPEAKER_03: They have various cloth wrappings moving on their own.
- 57:16One of them has a mask that looks manly in nature,
- 57:19and the other one has a more feminine mask.
- 57:23SPEAKER_03: There is a massive purple aura coming off of both of them.
- 57:30SPEAKER_03: Uh,
- 57:30SPEAKER_03: pen on the one you are standing in front of,
- 57:33SPEAKER_03: you see that the inscription on it reads King Amenthes.
- 57:43SPEAKER_03: And on the one that,
- 57:45SPEAKER_03: uh,
- 57:45SPEAKER_03: Ace,
- 57:45SPEAKER_03: Dionysus and Malachar in front of it,
- 57:47SPEAKER_03: you see that that says Queen Hotefites.
- 57:54SPEAKER_03: I need you all to roll initiative.
- 57:58SPEAKER_01: Queen what now?
- 58:00SPEAKER_00: Otafitis.
- 58:02SPEAKER_01: Oh, man.
- 58:05SPEAKER_03: I know, right?
- 58:09SPEAKER_00: I was just gonna bow and hope for the best.
- 58:13SPEAKER_01: You were supposed to get more food.
- 58:14SPEAKER_00: I didn't realize they were sarcophagi.
- 58:22SPEAKER_03: Uh... Dayana... Oh, no, you know, Draco doesn't get...
- 58:28SPEAKER_03: Um, Penn, what'd you roll?
- 58:29SPEAKER_03: 17.
- 58:31SPEAKER_03: Well, that's not bad.
- 58:33SPEAKER_03: That's not bad at all.
- 58:36SPEAKER_03: Malachi, looks like you're bringing up the rear with 14.
- 58:38SPEAKER_02: Yep.
- 58:43SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 58:45SPEAKER_03: So,
- 58:45SPEAKER_03: for those of you that have watched Soul Eater,
- 58:48SPEAKER_03: and the...
- 58:50SPEAKER_03: When Death the Kid goes to the temple in his intro episode...
- 58:58SPEAKER_03: Imagine that mummy times two.
- 59:02SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 59:03SPEAKER_03: That's what these are.
- 59:07SPEAKER_03: Dionysus with a 23.
- 59:10SPEAKER_03: You go first.
- 59:14I think there'd be no nice talking our way out of this one,
- 59:17I don't think,
- 59:17guys.
- 59:18SPEAKER_00: So, yeah.
- 59:20SPEAKER_00: That's a good old bow.
- 59:24SPEAKER_03: Okay, go ahead and roll your attack.
- 59:32SPEAKER_03: Plus 15?
- 59:33SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that hits.
- 59:49SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 59:51SPEAKER_03: So it takes 17 points of damage.
- 59:55SPEAKER_03: That is forced damage.
- 59:59SPEAKER_00: For my second shot, since...
- 1:00:02SPEAKER_00: I didn't think about it, you know.
- 1:00:03SPEAKER_00: I think there's Mark and Sharpshooter again.
- 1:00:06SPEAKER_03: Alright, so he is... So you're going to Hunter's Mark.
- 1:00:10SPEAKER_03: Go ahead and roll your second attack.
- 1:00:14SPEAKER_03: With a minus five.
- 1:00:19SPEAKER_03: This music needs to be less peaceful.
- 1:00:21SPEAKER_02: That's a natural one.
- 1:00:25SPEAKER_01: Fuck.
- 1:00:28SPEAKER_03: Unfortunately...
- 1:00:31SPEAKER_03: That misses.
- 1:00:36SPEAKER_03: But, he is Hunter's Mark.
- 1:00:39SPEAKER_00: I still have movement?
- 1:00:41SPEAKER_03: You still have movement, yes.
- 1:00:47Since I'm invisible,
- 1:00:49I'm going to move over here and I'm going to try to hide.
- 1:00:59SPEAKER_03: You're gonna try to what?
- 1:01:00SPEAKER_00: Blend in with the area.
- 1:01:01SPEAKER_03: Oh, okay.
- 1:01:01SPEAKER_00: Blend in with the area.
- 1:01:03SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:01:03SPEAKER_00: Is it Draco's turn?
- 1:01:10SPEAKER_03: Uh, no.
- 1:01:11SPEAKER_03: At the end of your turn, it's gonna use a legendary action.
- 1:01:13SPEAKER_03: Let's see.
- 1:01:26SPEAKER_03: Everybody within...
- 1:01:29SPEAKER_03: I'm just gonna use one legendary action and use Dreadful Glare.
- 1:01:34SPEAKER_03: Everyone within 60 feet of it.
- 1:01:39So,
- 1:01:40Dayanus,
- 1:01:41Ace,
- 1:01:42and Malachi,
- 1:01:44I need the three of you to roll a wisdom saving throw.
- 1:01:52SPEAKER_01: Oh, six.
- 1:01:55SPEAKER_00: God.
- 1:01:57SPEAKER_01: I'm going to use a luck.
- 1:01:59SPEAKER_03: All right, go ahead and use your luck, Malachi.
- 1:02:03SPEAKER_03: 20.
- 1:02:06SPEAKER_01: 30, 20.
- 1:02:07SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:02:12SPEAKER_01: You succeed.
- 1:02:25SPEAKER_03: Dayanus and Ace, you are both frightened and paralyzed.
- 1:02:30SPEAKER_01: Oh, fuck me.
- 1:02:32SPEAKER_01: Great.
- 1:02:34SPEAKER_00: Bye, guys.
- 1:02:36Until the end of the mummy's next turn,
- 1:02:39you are both frightened and paralyzed.
- 1:02:41SPEAKER_00: So we can't do anything.
- 1:02:45SPEAKER_03: Malachi,
- 1:02:46SPEAKER_03: just as a note,
- 1:02:47you cannot be frightened or paralyzed by any mummy's dreadful
- 1:02:50glare for 24 hours.
- 1:02:53SPEAKER_02: Oh cool, nice.
- 1:02:54SPEAKER_03: Because you succeeded.
- 1:02:59SPEAKER_03: However... Now it's Draco's turn.
- 1:03:06SPEAKER_00: Am I going to be able to tell him anything because I'm paralyzed?
- 1:03:13SPEAKER_03: Can you communicate telepathically with him?
- 1:03:20SPEAKER_01: I'm not positive.
- 1:03:29SPEAKER_03: You must take a bonus action or command and take an action.
- 1:03:33SPEAKER_03: You wouldn't be able to, anyway, use your bonus action for Hunter's Mark.
- 1:03:38SPEAKER_00: That's right.
- 1:03:47SPEAKER_03: So, no, it can... He can move.
- 1:03:55SPEAKER_03: but otherwise takes the dodge action.
- 1:03:59SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I think he's better off with that right now.
- 1:04:01SPEAKER_03: So you're going to keep him there?
- 1:04:09SPEAKER_00: Yeah, keep him there and see how this goes.
- 1:04:16SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:04:17SPEAKER_03: Ace, it is your turn, but you are frightened and paralyzed.
- 1:04:22SPEAKER_00: Oh, I've heard.
- 1:04:25SPEAKER_03: So you cannot do anything.
- 1:04:30SPEAKER_03: It's Devlin's turn.
- 1:04:33SPEAKER_03: Devlin is going to... Oh, let's see.
- 1:04:50SPEAKER_03: No, no, no, no, no.
- 1:05:00SPEAKER_03: So she's just going to Eldritch Blast.
- 1:05:14SPEAKER_03: Do I wanna do that?
- 1:05:20SPEAKER_03: No, she's gonna use her bow.
- 1:05:24SPEAKER_03: So she's gonna step back.
- 1:05:28SPEAKER_03: to cover the other side of you,
- 1:05:30SPEAKER_03: Dayanis,
- 1:05:30SPEAKER_03: and she's going to use her Winter Dragon Striker on the one you hit.
- 1:05:42SPEAKER_03: So that's 22 that hits.
- 1:05:42SPEAKER_03: 4, 12, plus a d6.
- 1:05:43SPEAKER_03: That is 15 points of damage.
- 1:05:57SPEAKER_03: Uh, and then she, because I forgot to do it for her, uh, where is it?
- 1:06:10SPEAKER_03: Oh, maybe not, I don't want to do that.
- 1:06:11SPEAKER_03: Yeah, so she's just gonna, she's gonna make her second strike.
- 1:06:19SPEAKER_03: Eight, does an 18 hit?
- 1:06:21SPEAKER_03: It does.
- 1:06:25SPEAKER_03: None of these are doing well, but at least her damage is good.
- 1:06:28SPEAKER_03: So 15 points.
- 1:06:32SPEAKER_03: Another 15.
- 1:06:32SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:06:37SPEAKER_03: And that is her turn.
- 1:06:45SPEAKER_03: That's her turn.
- 1:06:48SPEAKER_03: So we go to the Mummy Lord's turn.
- 1:06:53SPEAKER_03: Uh, he is going to crawl out of the side that you guys are at.
- 1:07:01SPEAKER_03: And... Did he?
- 1:07:02SPEAKER_03: Did we take a long rest or anything after we got off the ship?
- 1:07:08SPEAKER_03: No, right?
- 1:07:08SPEAKER_03: No.
- 1:07:10SPEAKER_03: You guys did not.
- 1:07:16SPEAKER_03: Oh, Jesus.
- 1:07:18SPEAKER_01: Um... There's two mummies in here, right?
- 1:07:22SPEAKER_03: There are two...
- 1:07:24SPEAKER_03: Royal mummies in here, yes.
- 1:07:28SPEAKER_02: Yeah, for some reason I'm only seeing one on my map.
- 1:07:37SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:07:39SPEAKER_00: Are you two zoomed in?
- 1:07:40SPEAKER_01: Ace.
- 1:07:41SPEAKER_01: No, no, no, I zoomed out, but I don't see anything on the other platform.
- 1:07:46SPEAKER_03: It is attacking you.
- 1:07:47SPEAKER_03: Of course.
- 1:07:48SPEAKER_03: Because you are paralyzed, it has advantage.
- 1:07:57SPEAKER_03: That's a 26.
- 1:07:58SPEAKER_03: Shit.
- 1:08:01SPEAKER_00: I'd say that hit.
- 1:08:02SPEAKER_03: You are paralyzed, which means a melee attack is automatically a crit.
- 1:08:08SPEAKER_00: My armor protects me from crit.
- 1:08:13SPEAKER_03: That's right, it does.
- 1:08:16SPEAKER_03: You still need to make a constitution saving throw.
- 1:08:20SPEAKER_00: Oh good, I'm so good at those.
- 1:08:30SPEAKER_00: You take... All of the damage.
- 1:08:37SPEAKER_03: Come on, show me what that total is.
- 1:08:39SPEAKER_03: 300.
- 1:08:41SPEAKER_00: That's not 300.
- 1:08:46It would have been really bad,
- 1:08:48but I did give you armor that negates crits.
- 1:08:5116.
- 1:08:54SPEAKER_03: Yes, there's 16 points of bludgeoning damage.
- 1:08:58SPEAKER_00: I'm glad I fought for my elven chain.
- 1:09:00SPEAKER_03: 16 points of bludgeoning damage plus 24 points of necrotic damage.
- 1:09:13SPEAKER_00: I'm defensive against necrotic.
- 1:09:16SPEAKER_03: You're what?
- 1:09:17SPEAKER_00: I have a- I'm resistant against necrotic,
- 1:09:20SPEAKER_03: it's from my book of- So you take 12 points of necrotic damage,
- 1:09:23SPEAKER_03: then,
- 1:09:24SPEAKER_03: instead of 24.
- 1:09:26SPEAKER_00: Man!
- 1:09:27SPEAKER_00: These can't fuck with me!
- 1:09:30SPEAKER_03: However, you are cursed with mummy rot.
- 1:09:34SPEAKER_01: Gross.
- 1:09:34SPEAKER_01: Mummy rot.
- 1:09:36You cannot regain any hit points,
- 1:09:39and your hit point maximum decreases by 3d6 every 24 hours.
- 1:09:43SPEAKER_03: Until when?
- 1:09:49SPEAKER_00: Forever.
- 1:09:49SPEAKER_03: It's a curse.
- 1:09:51SPEAKER_00: So... Damn it.
- 1:09:54SPEAKER_03: You gotta get uncursed.
- 1:09:59Uh...
- 1:10:01And...
- 1:10:01And...
- 1:10:01Because the mummies can attack...
- 1:10:03Can make two actions every turn.
- 1:10:05SPEAKER_03: Uh... I need...
- 1:10:10ace dianas devlin and malachi to make a wisdom saving throw
- 1:10:15again oh no malachi
- 1:10:16you're immune um so ace i need another wisdom save dianas any
- 1:10:21other wisdom saving
- 1:10:22SPEAKER_03: devlin needs to make one 16.
- 1:10:24SPEAKER_03: see uh the 16 is a success you are now immune to dreadful glare
- 1:10:33SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 1:10:34SPEAKER_03: Dayanis, that is also a success.
- 1:10:36SPEAKER_03: 30, 20.
- 1:10:36SPEAKER_01: Yay!
- 1:10:39SPEAKER_03: And Devlin rolled a 16.
- 1:10:41SPEAKER_03: She is immune.
- 1:10:42SPEAKER_03: So now at the end of its turn,
- 1:10:43SPEAKER_03: Ace and Dayanis,
- 1:10:45SPEAKER_03: you both are now no longer frightened or paralyzed.
- 1:10:48SPEAKER_03: Nice.
- 1:10:50And you cannot be frightened or paralyzed by this same effect
- 1:10:54from any mummy.
- 1:10:57SPEAKER_00: Oh, sweet.
- 1:10:58SPEAKER_03: Not just this particular one.
- 1:11:00SPEAKER_03: From anyone that has this effect, you cannot be...
- 1:11:05SPEAKER_03: frightened or paralyzed by it because you succeeded for 24 hours.
- 1:11:12SPEAKER_03: At the end of its turn,
- 1:11:13SPEAKER_03: because this mummy should have shown itself,
- 1:11:17SPEAKER_03: at the end of its turn,
- 1:11:18SPEAKER_03: the other one's going to use a legendary action.
- 1:11:26SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I can see it now.
- 1:11:30SPEAKER_03: It...
- 1:11:36SPEAKER_03: It will... Penn, I need you to make a wisdom saving throw.
- 1:11:54SPEAKER_03: And Dayanus, make a wisdom saving throw for Draco.
- 1:12:08SPEAKER_03: Oh, he has a plus seven.
- 1:12:08SPEAKER_03: He's good at those.
- 1:12:23SPEAKER_03: Let me know what you roll.
- 1:12:26SPEAKER_00: This is the same as mine, isn't it?
- 1:12:28SPEAKER_03: Uh, no, he has a plus seven to his saves.
- 1:12:30SPEAKER_03: Okay, so I'll just roll.
- 1:12:35SPEAKER_01: Sorry, I'm just muted.
- 1:12:36SPEAKER_01: I didn't realize I got up to already
- 1:12:43Draco is paralyzed and frightened until the end of this mummy's
- 1:12:48next turn.
- 1:12:50SPEAKER_03: Pen, you are immune to the effect.
- 1:12:56SPEAKER_03: But it is your turn, Pen.
- 1:13:03SPEAKER_03: to, uh, pull out Baba Yaga's, uh, Pestle and turn it into a quarter cap.
- 1:13:10SPEAKER_03: Is that an action?
- 1:13:12SPEAKER_03: Or a boss action or anything?
- 1:13:14SPEAKER_03: Uh, it is something.
- 1:13:16SPEAKER_03: I don't remember what it is.
- 1:13:18SPEAKER_03: Let's see.
- 1:13:21SPEAKER_03: Uh, it's... There's a red clear action.
- 1:13:29Mortar's a turner,
- 1:13:30a pestle,
- 1:13:31a six or something...
- 1:13:33You can extend it for a shrinket.
- 1:13:35SPEAKER_03: No action required.
- 1:13:36SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:13:41SPEAKER_03: So it's a plus three quarter staff.
- 1:13:45SPEAKER_03: Okay,
- 1:13:45SPEAKER_03: so...
- 1:13:46SPEAKER_03: I'm gonna pull it out in my...
- 1:13:50I'm gonna have to gear the staff in one hand and use that in
- 1:13:52the other hand.
- 1:13:54SPEAKER_03: I'm gonna activate my symbiotic entity.
- 1:13:56SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:13:56SPEAKER_03: That's my action.
- 1:13:59and as a bonus action um pulling it out pulling it out would uh
- 1:14:12pulling it out i'd
- 1:14:13say would be your bonus action but extending it into a quarter
- 1:14:17changing its form is
- 1:14:18not does not cost an action okay so now i'm going to pull it
- 1:14:23out turn it into a
- 1:14:24SPEAKER_03: quarterstaff and activate my samurai identities and um
- 1:14:31SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I'm just gonna stand my ground.
- 1:14:33Okay.
- 1:14:35SPEAKER_03: So, 13... times 4... is... 52?
- 1:14:41SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 1:14:43SPEAKER_03: Correct?
- 1:14:45SPEAKER_01: So it's 52 temporary points.
- 1:14:51SPEAKER_03: This, folks, is why you play a druid.
- 1:14:55SPEAKER_02: Hmm.
- 1:14:59SPEAKER_03: Uh, okay.
- 1:15:02SPEAKER_03: It is now this mummy lord's turn.
- 1:15:26SPEAKER_03: Ooh!
- 1:15:27SPEAKER_03: No, no, no, no.
- 1:15:30SPEAKER_03: Well, maybe.
- 1:15:31SPEAKER_03: What does this do?
- 1:15:46SPEAKER_03: I don't think it would know, I don't think they're that intelligent.
- 1:15:56SPEAKER_03: No, they're not.
- 1:15:59You see the mummy start making some very slow hand movements
- 1:16:09and point a finger at you,
- 1:16:11Pen.
- 1:16:13SPEAKER_03: I need you to make a constitution save.
- 1:16:24SPEAKER_03: Natural 20.
- 1:16:29SPEAKER_03: So you only take half of this damage.
- 1:16:33SPEAKER_03: You feel a wave of necrotic energy wash over you.
- 1:16:38SPEAKER_01: Resistency is gonna pass one.
- 1:16:45SPEAKER_03: So you take...
- 1:16:50SPEAKER_03: You would take 47 damage cut in half due to your success,
- 1:16:53SPEAKER_03: which makes that 23 cut in half again,
- 1:16:56SPEAKER_03: so you're only taking 11 points of damage.
- 1:16:59SPEAKER_03: Necrotic damage.
- 1:17:04SPEAKER_03: That's its action.
- 1:17:07SPEAKER_03: And then it's going to move up to the edge of its thing there.
- 1:17:16SPEAKER_03: Malachi?
- 1:17:21SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 1:17:21SPEAKER_03: It is your turn.
- 1:17:23SPEAKER_01: Oh, okay.
- 1:17:25SPEAKER_01: Um... Oh, sorry.
- 1:17:27SPEAKER_01: You gonna say something?
- 1:17:28SPEAKER_01: Can I use my reaction to the Halo Force?
- 1:17:32SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 1:17:38SPEAKER_03: Uh, what type of damage is that?
- 1:17:42SPEAKER_03: It's a product.
- 1:17:44SPEAKER_03: It has no effect.
- 1:17:50As you use reaction and activate your spores to attack this
- 1:17:54creature as it comes in
- 1:17:55SPEAKER_03: range,
- 1:17:56you notice that the necrotic energy that you're used to seeing
- 1:18:00your spores deal is
- 1:18:01SPEAKER_03: not doing anything to this creature.
- 1:18:09SPEAKER_03: Seems unfazed.
- 1:18:10SPEAKER_03: Thank you.
- 1:18:16SPEAKER_03: Malachi, now it is your turn.
- 1:18:18SPEAKER_01: Uh, okay.
- 1:18:20Um...
- 1:18:23I'm gonna draw Sandra...
- 1:18:25Well,
- 1:18:26I guess I have to spend an action to draw a weapon.
- 1:18:31SPEAKER_03: Well, you had a weapon drawn.
- 1:18:34SPEAKER_02: Okay, I think I had my axe out.
- 1:18:36SPEAKER_03: You had Donna drawn.
- 1:18:38SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 1:18:39In that case,
- 1:18:40we're gonna...
- 1:18:40But yes,
- 1:18:41you would spend an action to swap weapons.
- 1:18:45SPEAKER_02: Okay,
- 1:18:46now we're going to hold on to Donna and we're going to take a
- 1:18:50couple of swipes at
- 1:18:52SPEAKER_01: this guy in front of us here.
- 1:18:55SPEAKER_03: Okay, go ahead and roll.
- 1:19:03SPEAKER_01: 17?
- 1:19:04SPEAKER_03: Barely hits.
- 1:19:06Okay,
- 1:19:07so I'm going to Divine Smite on top of that and I'm going to
- 1:19:13Thunder a Smite.
- 1:19:16SPEAKER_01: As a bonus action.
- 1:19:18SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:19:20SPEAKER_01: Do the damage on the normal slash first.
- 1:19:24SPEAKER_03: Let me check something.
- 1:19:30SPEAKER_03: Because one of those had a save.
- 1:19:32SPEAKER_01: Yeah, Thunderous Smite has a strength save.
- 1:19:37SPEAKER_01: Okay, fuck.
- 1:19:43SPEAKER_03: So let me...
- 1:19:47so theirs is not that's a fail so it fails all right so it uh
- 1:19:57on top of the divine
- 1:19:59smite and the thunderous smite deals an extra 2d6 and it is
- 1:20:06knocked 10 feet away
- 1:20:07SPEAKER_03: and knocked prone so roll your slashing damage first oh
- 1:20:16SPEAKER_01: So, Donna slashing.
- 1:20:20SPEAKER_01: That's 13.
- 1:20:21SPEAKER_01: Okay, roll your Divine Smite.
- 1:20:29SPEAKER_00: Where is the Divine Smite?
- 1:20:36SPEAKER_01: Where is the Divine Smite damage?
- 1:20:39SPEAKER_01: It's a D-Aid.
- 1:20:40SPEAKER_01: Wait.
- 1:20:43SPEAKER_01: When you hit with a melee weapon attack, you can expend...
- 1:20:47SPEAKER_01: One spell slot to deal 2d8.
- 1:20:49SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 1:20:49SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:20:50SPEAKER_01: So 2d8.
- 1:20:56SPEAKER_01: That's 11.
- 1:20:57SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:20:59SPEAKER_02: And then bonus action.
- 1:21:01SPEAKER_03: And then your thunderous smite.
- 1:21:03SPEAKER_02: Then the thunderous smite.
- 1:21:08SPEAKER_01: That's another five.
- 1:21:09SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 1:21:14SPEAKER_02: Then I got to mark off a spell slot.
- 1:21:17SPEAKER_03: It is pushed back 10 feet,
- 1:21:20SPEAKER_03: and it's so large you can't tell if it's knocked prone,
- 1:21:24SPEAKER_03: but it is not as imposing as it was previously.
- 1:21:33SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:21:35SPEAKER_03: It's your first attack.
- 1:21:37SPEAKER_01: Yep, I'm gonna use some movement to get right up on it.
- 1:21:43SPEAKER_01: There we go.
- 1:21:43SPEAKER_01: You can't climb that.
- 1:21:48SPEAKER_02: Oh, I can't climb that.
- 1:21:49SPEAKER_02: No?
- 1:21:50SPEAKER_03: You'd be inside of the coffin.
- 1:21:55SPEAKER_01: Oh, this hole?
- 1:21:56SPEAKER_01: Okay, okay, okay.
- 1:21:58SPEAKER_01: Um... In that case... You can go around.
- 1:22:04SPEAKER_01: Okay, um... Like, to here?
- 1:22:11SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 1:22:13SPEAKER_03: And then you can make another attack.
- 1:22:16SPEAKER_01: Now...
- 1:22:19SPEAKER_01: If it's prone, I would get advantage, right?
- 1:22:21SPEAKER_02: But how's that working right now?
- 1:22:24SPEAKER_03: It's considered prone.
- 1:22:27SPEAKER_03: But it's not really any less imposing.
- 1:22:32SPEAKER_02: Can I make my attack with advantage?
- 1:22:37Let me see.
- 1:22:39SPEAKER_02: Because I am within five feet of it.
- 1:22:55SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I'll say you attack with advantage.
- 1:23:00SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 1:23:02SPEAKER_02: So then we're using the same weapon.
- 1:23:04SPEAKER_02: 27.
- 1:23:08SPEAKER_01: That hits.
- 1:23:11SPEAKER_01: Alright, and we're going to do the same thing.
- 1:23:13SPEAKER_01: We're going to add another Divine Smite.
- 1:23:17SPEAKER_03: Roll your normal attack first.
- 1:23:20SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 1:23:21SPEAKER_01: Slashing.
- 1:23:22SPEAKER_01: That's 11.
- 1:23:26SPEAKER_01: And then expending another spell slot.
- 1:23:32SPEAKER_01: 2d8.
- 1:23:36SPEAKER_01: Radiant damage.
- 1:23:39SPEAKER_01: Another 8 damage.
- 1:23:41SPEAKER_03: It's looking very hurt.
- 1:23:47SPEAKER_01: Very hurt?
- 1:23:48SPEAKER_03: Yep.
- 1:23:50SPEAKER_03: Yep.
- 1:23:51SPEAKER_03: Very, very hurt.
- 1:23:55SPEAKER_02: Okay.

- 1:25:26center to explode.
- 1:25:27SPEAKER_03: And Malachi,

- 1:25:34body was inside this

- 1:27:40SPEAKER_00: Yeah, he'll take the dodge action.
- 1:27:43SPEAKER_00: I'm going to try to hide stealth fully, too.
- 1:27:48SPEAKER_03: I mean,
- 1:27:51SPEAKER_03: you're stealthy naturally,
- 1:27:53SPEAKER_03: but you can't actually stealth because that would be an action.
- 1:28:03SPEAKER_03: Ace,
- 1:28:05SPEAKER_03: shaking off the fright and paralysis,
- 1:28:10SPEAKER_03: and after being hit pretty hard by a punch,

- 1:28:54SPEAKER_03: That's a 14.
- 1:28:57SPEAKER_00: Rolling damage.
- 1:29:00SPEAKER_03: Is that full damage?
- 1:29:01SPEAKER_03: I think that's full damage.
- 1:29:02SPEAKER_00: Yes, it is.
- 1:29:04SPEAKER_03: Yeah, your spell save is ridiculous.
- 1:29:06SPEAKER_00: That is.
- 1:29:07SPEAKER_03: Oh, God!
- 1:29:12SPEAKER_03: Oh, what kind of damage is that?
- 1:29:15SPEAKER_00: Fire.
- 1:29:15SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:29:19SPEAKER_00: Burn it with fire.
- 1:29:21SPEAKER_00: No!

- 1:29:31SPEAKER_00: Alright.
- 1:29:33SPEAKER_00: Then, I'm going to use a bonus action as well.
- 1:29:36SPEAKER_00: It's my first time, and I'm excited.
- 1:29:39SPEAKER_00: I'm gonna put my Hexblade curse on it.
- 1:29:43SPEAKER_03: You're gonna curse it, okay.
- 1:29:46SPEAKER_00: My Hexblade curse!
- 1:29:48SPEAKER_03: So it's cursed.

- 1:30:00but otherwise that's...
- 1:30:03SPEAKER_03: Action bonus action.
- 1:30:04SPEAKER_00: I'm going to be leaving it there.
- 1:30:06SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 1:30:09SPEAKER_03: Devlin's turn.
- 1:30:14SPEAKER_03: Let's see Devlin.
- 1:30:19SPEAKER_03: She's not going to waste that yet.
- 1:30:26SPEAKER_03: She's not going to do that yet either.
- 1:30:34SPEAKER_03: And she's most useful with her bow.
- 1:30:37SPEAKER_03: So, first strike, 30, that hits second strike.
- 1:30:42SPEAKER_03: 27, they both hit.
- 1:30:44SPEAKER_03: So, 9, 12, that's 21.
- 1:30:44SPEAKER_03: Plus the additional, so 25 points of damage.
- 1:30:48SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:31:03SPEAKER_03: Um, bonus action.
- 1:31:13SPEAKER_03: This doesn't really have bonus action.
- 1:31:23SPEAKER_03: So we move on to Penn.
- 1:31:24SPEAKER_03: It is your turn.
- 1:31:34SPEAKER_01: I mean, I'm going to hit him with both quarterstops.
- 1:31:40SPEAKER_03: So, I'm going to attempt to hit him.
- 1:31:44SPEAKER_03: I have two-handed fighting.
- 1:31:46SPEAKER_03: You do have two-handed fighting.
- 1:31:49SPEAKER_03: There's two weapons for me.
- 1:31:50It'll be your action and bonus action to do that,
- 1:31:53but yes,
- 1:31:53you can do that.
- 1:31:54SPEAKER_03: So, here's that.
- 1:31:57SPEAKER_03: There's a 19.
- 1:32:05that hits uh go ahead and roll it for the second one that is 18
- 1:32:15plus 10 right so 28
- 1:32:18so they both hit uh but it's the 1d6 right but i'm going to
- 1:32:27extend three charges on
- 1:32:29SPEAKER_03: baba yaga's pestle and uh increase
- 1:32:35SPEAKER_03: and do force damage by 3d8.
- 1:32:43SPEAKER_03: I'm not going to have you roll.
- 1:32:45SPEAKER_03: How do you want to do this?
- 1:32:50SPEAKER_03: It's your minimum damage kills it.
- 1:32:52SPEAKER_01: Nice pen.
- 1:32:55SPEAKER_03: I just, as I double tap him with like the quarterstaff, like I just
- 1:33:04I'm gonna,
- 1:33:04like,
- 1:33:04split up in half,
- 1:33:05and there's robes and...
- 1:33:08I mean,
- 1:33:09she's right there.
- 1:33:13SPEAKER_03: As you...
- 1:33:14SPEAKER_03: pound into the...
- 1:33:18SPEAKER_03: firm yet soft,
- 1:33:20SPEAKER_03: fleshy form that is underneath the tissue,
- 1:33:24it begins to split and splat everywhere as it literally gets
- 1:33:32beaten into a pulp.
- 1:33:39SPEAKER_03: And you guys are now left in this room.
- 1:33:50SPEAKER_03: However, you do see that the darkness in this area
- 1:34:07SPEAKER_03: Seems to have subsided.
- 1:34:17Penn,
- 1:34:17roll a perception check and Malachi,
- 1:34:19roll a perception check for the tombs.
- 1:34:22SPEAKER_00: Quick question.
- 1:34:23SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 1:34:25I have already forgotten the many aspects of my current state
- 1:34:30of cursedness.
- 1:34:32SPEAKER_00: I'm supposed to regain 16 HP if my Hexblade cursed thing dies.
- 1:34:37SPEAKER_00: Am I not allowed to because I am cursed?
- 1:34:40SPEAKER_03: You cannot regain HP while you're under a mummy's curse.
- 1:34:44SPEAKER_03: At all.
- 1:34:46SPEAKER_03: Is your Hexblade's curse temporary HP?
- 1:34:50SPEAKER_00: No, it doesn't say temporary.
- 1:34:51SPEAKER_00: It just says HP.
- 1:34:55SPEAKER_03: Yeah, so no, you do not currently regain any HP.
- 1:35:00SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 1:35:01SPEAKER_00: Would there be, like, curse-breaking things in my book?
- 1:35:11SPEAKER_00: Like,
- 1:35:11SPEAKER_00: obviously,
- 1:35:11SPEAKER_00: there's no time to sit and read right now,
- 1:35:13SPEAKER_00: but...
- 1:35:15SPEAKER_03: Potentially,
- 1:35:15you may have come across some things that may have been helpful
- 1:35:21while researching
- 1:35:22SPEAKER_03: other things,
- 1:35:22SPEAKER_03: but you're not entirely sure right now.
- 1:35:25SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 1:35:26SPEAKER_00: We'll have to investigate my curse later.
- 1:35:29SPEAKER_03: Elrin also might be able to help because she did cure your weapons.
- 1:35:34SPEAKER_00: Well, just so you're all aware, I'm a little bit cursed, guys.
- 1:35:40SPEAKER_01: Oh, wait.
- 1:35:40SPEAKER_02: You cursed?
- 1:35:41SPEAKER_02: Lovely.
- 1:35:42SPEAKER_00: A little bit.
- 1:35:43SPEAKER_03: Penn, what'd you roll?
- 1:35:44SPEAKER_01: Oh, I rolled a 24.
- 1:35:50SPEAKER_03: Malachi, inside of the tomb that is in front of you,
- 1:35:56SPEAKER_03: You see dust.
- 1:36:01SPEAKER_02: Lovely.
- 1:36:03SPEAKER_03: Pen inside of the tomb that's in front of you.
- 1:36:07SPEAKER_03: You make out some pebbles with the dust.
- 1:36:14SPEAKER_03: There is a lot of shiny things in the room that was just darkness before.
- 1:36:20SPEAKER_02: That's over here to the left?
- 1:36:23SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 1:36:25SPEAKER_02: Can we all go check that out?
- 1:36:30SPEAKER_03: I'm going to walk over to Ace.
- 1:36:34SPEAKER_03: I'm going to pull out my Diamond Dust.
- 1:36:38SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:36:39And I'm going to start bousing Ace in the Diamond Dust and cast
- 1:36:50Greater Restoration.
- 1:36:54SPEAKER_03: As diamond dust is thrown all over you,
- 1:37:00SPEAKER_03: Ace,
- 1:37:02SPEAKER_03: and Penn begins his speaking and his gesturing for greater restoration,
- 1:37:12SPEAKER_03: the diamond dust glows that is around you.
- 1:37:16SPEAKER_03: It begins to sparkle, and it takes on this very...
- 1:37:21light purple-like lilac color as you feel the curse be sucked
- 1:37:29out of you as you are cured.
- 1:37:35SPEAKER_00: This has happened way too frequently lately.
- 1:37:38SPEAKER_00: Thank you.
- 1:37:38SPEAKER_00: You're welcome.
- 1:37:45SPEAKER_00: By the time we get back to Ekther, I'm going to have been sucked dry.
- 1:37:51yes i can't i can't have one of my it's going to be very hard
- 1:37:56to keep one of you
- 1:37:57alive so all right well there's nothing in these films except
- 1:38:07dust and rocks and
- 1:38:09pebbles um i don't know if anybody needs ammo with rocks and
- 1:38:14slingshots and other
- 1:38:15SPEAKER_01: but i see shiny stuff in the other room should we go investigate yes
- 1:38:20SPEAKER_01: Go to the Shinies.
- 1:38:25SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:38:27Somebody...
- 1:38:30Well,
- 1:38:30actually,
- 1:38:30I don't need to because Ace and Dionys have pretty high.
- 1:38:36SPEAKER_03: Ace, especially.
- 1:38:38SPEAKER_03: Walking into this room, it looks to be a treasury room.
- 1:38:44There are various piles of coins,
- 1:38:46gems,
- 1:38:47bars,
- 1:38:47and artifacts piled around the room.
- 1:38:50SPEAKER_03: Digging through now that you are not under immediate threat.
- 1:38:55SPEAKER_03: You do find 300 gold.
- 1:38:58SPEAKER_03: Nice.
- 1:39:01SPEAKER_03: Three of the rainbow gems.
- 1:39:03SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 1:39:05SPEAKER_03: Two pure silver bars.
- 1:39:06SPEAKER_02: Where's my notebook?
- 1:39:07SPEAKER_02: 300 gold.
- 1:39:09SPEAKER_02: Three rainbow gems.
- 1:39:25SPEAKER_03: Two pure silver bars.
- 1:39:33SPEAKER_03: A silver-plated heavy wooden shield, like traditional shield.
- 1:39:41SPEAKER_02: Silver-plated heavy wooden shield?
- 1:39:43SPEAKER_03: Yes, and then a large silver and gold inlaid circular shield.
- 1:39:56SPEAKER_03: Uh, oops, I didn't want to send that yet.
- 1:40:05SPEAKER_03: Two silver tipped elven spears.
- 1:40:13SPEAKER_03: Oh, I forgot I put this in here.
- 1:40:19SPEAKER_03: And a large ancient golden cup filled with a mysterious purple liquid.
- 1:40:28SPEAKER_01: One large ancient cup?
- 1:40:33SPEAKER_03: I put it in the chat, but yeah.
- 1:40:34SPEAKER_03: Large ancient golden cup filled with a mysterious purple liquid.
- 1:40:45SPEAKER_01: Who wants to drink it?
- 1:40:47SPEAKER_00: Nobody.
- 1:40:47SPEAKER_00: It's zombie poison.
- 1:40:49SPEAKER_01: Are you sure?
- 1:40:50SPEAKER_01: Or it's something really good.
- 1:40:53SPEAKER_01: It's not.
- 1:40:54SPEAKER_01: We should all take a sip.
- 1:40:56SPEAKER_00: Absolutely not.
- 1:40:57SPEAKER_03: Might not do anything if everyone takes a sip.
- 1:41:02SPEAKER_02: I look at Penn.
- 1:41:03SPEAKER_02: What do you think?
- 1:41:05SPEAKER_02: Could be good.
- 1:41:06SPEAKER_03: It might help each of you if you each take a sip.
- 1:41:09SPEAKER_03: It could be bad.
- 1:41:11SPEAKER_03: Might be good.
- 1:41:13SPEAKER_02: I say we find out.
- 1:41:14SPEAKER_02: Cheers.
- 1:41:15SPEAKER_01: Do we remember where we... Cheers indeed.
- 1:41:19SPEAKER_00: I'm not drinking that.
- 1:41:21SPEAKER_00: All for one.
- 1:41:23SPEAKER_03: I take out my dragon vessel and use that as my cup.
- 1:41:27SPEAKER_03: I dip it in here.
- 1:41:29SPEAKER_03: How much of this liquid?
- 1:41:31SPEAKER_03: This is like a golden chalice.
- 1:41:34SPEAKER_03: So, like, it's not a lot of liquid in here.
- 1:41:36SPEAKER_01: I see a swig apiece.
- 1:41:40SPEAKER_01: I'm not drinking that.
- 1:41:41SPEAKER_03: That's fair.
- 1:41:43SPEAKER_03: Come on.
- 1:41:44SPEAKER_03: You each take a swig.
- 1:41:47SPEAKER_00: I'm not drinking that.
- 1:41:48SPEAKER_03: Leaving some left in the cup.
- 1:41:52SPEAKER_03: You are both refreshed as if you have just completed a long rest.
- 1:41:58SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 1:41:59You additionally are granted a single ability point for any one
- 1:42:04ability that is under 20.
- 1:42:07SPEAKER_01: Under 20?
- 1:42:07SPEAKER_01: Oh, what?
- 1:42:08SPEAKER_01: I'm putting that to strength.
- 1:42:12SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:42:14SPEAKER_03: Let me do that on your sheet for you.
- 1:42:18SPEAKER_01: Oh, that's nice.
- 1:42:20SPEAKER_01: And I look at Ace and I'm just like...
- 1:42:22SPEAKER_03: So you both can click the long rest button on your thing.
- 1:42:27SPEAKER_03: Pen, which one do you want to put your ability point into?
- 1:42:32SPEAKER_03: I'm not sure.
- 1:42:34SPEAKER_03: If I put in dexterity, will it go up to three or no?
- 1:42:37SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 1:42:39SPEAKER_03: Then yes.
- 1:42:41SPEAKER_03: And then I'd have to find different armor when I get to town.
- 1:42:46SPEAKER_03: Or make armor.
- 1:42:50SPEAKER_02: Pen, we should go shopping together.
- 1:42:52SPEAKER_03: There is still some purple liquid left.
- 1:42:56Ace and Dianis,
- 1:42:57you see them take sips and nothing terrible happened to them.
- 1:43:00SPEAKER_03: In fact, they look a little better than they did previously.
- 1:43:05SPEAKER_01: I feel stronger than I was a moment ago.
- 1:43:07SPEAKER_01: I'm flexing.
- 1:43:11SPEAKER_00: You also feel that way when you drink too much mead.
- 1:43:14SPEAKER_01: This is also true, but this is a... Actually, no, this is fair.
- 1:43:18SPEAKER_01: This is fair.
- 1:43:19SPEAKER_01: Nonetheless, I'm feeling stronger than a moment ago.
- 1:43:23SPEAKER_01: And I continue to flex.
- 1:43:27SPEAKER_00: I'll drink it if you do die.
- 1:43:29SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I'll drink it.
- 1:43:32SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:43:33SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:43:34SPEAKER_03: You both also feel refreshed as if after a long rest,
- 1:43:39and you each also gain an additional ability point to apply to
- 1:43:43a score that is
- 1:43:44SPEAKER_03: under 20.
- 1:43:54SPEAKER_01: Are you not dead?
- 1:43:57SPEAKER_00: I'm not.
- 1:43:59SPEAKER_00: Well done.
- 1:44:00SPEAKER_03: Just tell me which score you would like that applied to.
- 1:44:06SPEAKER_00: I think I'm gonna go with Constitution.
- 1:44:07SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:44:11SPEAKER_03: Won't change anything yet until you get another point there, but... Yeah.
- 1:44:17SPEAKER_00: It's the correct part.
- 1:44:19SPEAKER_00: I guess wisdom.
- 1:44:19SPEAKER_02: Okay, again.
- 1:44:30SPEAKER_03: Will not do anything yet, but that is fine.
- 1:44:33SPEAKER_03: You both can click the long rest button as well.
- 1:44:37SPEAKER_00: I'll take risks when I have guinea pigs to test them on first.
- 1:44:41SPEAKER_03: Devlin also takes a swig from it as well.
- 1:44:45SPEAKER_03: Not that she needs it, but she takes the long rest.
- 1:44:52SPEAKER_03: She is going to put that in...
- 1:45:01SPEAKER_03: Thanks for tuning in.
- 1:45:02SPEAKER_03: If you're enjoying the show, leave a like and review.

- 1:45:18SPEAKER_03: Without further ado, let's get back to the adventure.
- 1:45:33SPEAKER_03: Throw it in.
- 1:45:34SPEAKER_03: No.
- 1:45:35SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 1:45:37SPEAKER_03: Throw it in.
- 1:45:38SPEAKER_03: Constitution.
- 1:45:41SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:45:44SPEAKER_03: There seems to be nothing else of use in this room.
- 1:45:50SPEAKER_02: Nothing of any value either?
- 1:45:53SPEAKER_03: Other than the stuff that you found now.
- 1:45:59SPEAKER_01: I guess that's it, guys.
- 1:46:04SPEAKER_00: Are there any other doors?
- 1:46:06SPEAKER_03: Uh, there are not.
- 1:46:08SPEAKER_00: Do we just have to return the way we came?
- 1:46:13SPEAKER_03: Probably, but you may make a perception check.
- 1:46:17SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:46:17SPEAKER_01: I say we do a mad dash.
- 1:46:22SPEAKER_03: Nah, she's making a perception check because... Expertise.
- 1:46:27SPEAKER_03: Um... That's a low roll.
- 1:46:31SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:46:33SPEAKER_03: 3?
- 1:46:33SPEAKER_03: Yeah, but the plus 11, I mean.
- 1:46:36SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's monstrous, but damn.
- 1:46:42SPEAKER_03: So, digging through this ace specifically, you find an old scroll case.
- 1:46:57SPEAKER_00: Is it locked?
- 1:46:58SPEAKER_03: Yep.
- 1:47:01SPEAKER_00: Are there any keys about?
- 1:47:04SPEAKER_03: Not that you found.
- 1:47:06SPEAKER_00: Well, shit.
- 1:47:08SPEAKER_03: You can take it with you guys, though.
- 1:47:09SPEAKER_03: I'm sure you can find someone to unlock it for you.
- 1:47:13SPEAKER_00: I will indeed take it with me.
- 1:47:14SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:47:21SPEAKER_01: That should go in the bag of holding, right?
- 1:47:27SPEAKER_03: It is a big scroll case.
- 1:47:30SPEAKER_03: Well...
- 1:47:33SPEAKER_03: Penn, how much stuff's in the bag of holding weight-wise?
- 1:47:36SPEAKER_01: Give me a second.
- 1:47:46SPEAKER_01: It's forage.
- 1:47:55SPEAKER_02: It's 245 pounds a bit more.
- 1:48:01SPEAKER_03: You could fit the scroll case in there.
- 1:48:03However,
- 1:48:04you cannot fit either of the shields or the spears in there
- 1:48:09that you found.
- 1:48:17SPEAKER_01: How heavy is one of the shields?
- 1:48:18SPEAKER_01: Let's see.
- 1:48:19SPEAKER_01: The silver-plated heavy wooden shield, how heavy is that?
- 1:48:29If we each carried one of the things,
- 1:48:31we could probably carry everything.
- 1:48:33Yeah,
- 1:48:34or like,
- 1:48:35for example,
- 1:48:37somebody could cross the spears over their back.
- 1:48:40SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I was thinking I would do that and maybe take a shield as well.
- 1:48:44SPEAKER_03: You, because of your great weapons, you'd have to use a shield.
- 1:48:47SPEAKER_03: You couldn't have great weapons and spears on your back.
- 1:48:51SPEAKER_03: Ah, okay.
- 1:48:53SPEAKER_03: But yeah, you guys, between all of you, could get those out.
- 1:48:57SPEAKER_03: They just can't go in the bag of holding.
- 1:49:00But yeah,
- 1:49:00the scroll that Ace found that the case can go in the bag of
- 1:49:04holding.
- 1:49:04SPEAKER_03: That'll be fine.
- 1:49:11I'll turn the...
- 1:49:14I'll turn the pedestal back into a pedestal in front of my
- 1:49:17pocket.
- 1:49:18SPEAKER_03: And I'll take one of the spears and turn it on my back.
- 1:49:21SPEAKER_03: So I'll have a quarterstaff and a spear on my back.
- 1:49:24SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:49:25SPEAKER_01: Along with putting the chest of scrolls in the bag of holding.
- 1:49:30SPEAKER_01: Question about the ancient golden cup.
- 1:49:34SPEAKER_01: It's empty at this point, but is the cups of any value?
- 1:49:39SPEAKER_01: It's gold.
- 1:49:40SPEAKER_01: You don't have it.
- 1:49:42SPEAKER_01: You should probably keep it.
- 1:49:44SPEAKER_03: I assumed you were keeping it after you drank the liquid in.
- 1:49:48SPEAKER_03: Okay, because it is gold.
- 1:49:51SPEAKER_01: Yes, yes, yes.
- 1:49:55SPEAKER_03: Have someone expect it further, maybe.
- 1:49:58SPEAKER_03: So am I just making the item just a scrolls?
- 1:50:05SPEAKER_03: So what were you saying about inspecting further?
- 1:50:11SPEAKER_03: The golden cup,
- 1:50:13some of the stuff that you've gotten in the past may lead you
- 1:50:16to think that some of
- 1:50:16SPEAKER_03: this stuff might have to be inspected further.
- 1:50:19SPEAKER_02: Oh, yes.
- 1:50:20SPEAKER_03: But the bag of holding is taking 300 gold,
- 1:50:23SPEAKER_03: the three rainbow drams,
- 1:50:24SPEAKER_03: two pure silver bars,
- 1:50:26SPEAKER_03: and the golden cup,
- 1:50:27SPEAKER_03: the golden chalice.
- 1:50:33SPEAKER_03: Could you message that to me?
- 1:50:36SPEAKER_03: It's in the group chat.
- 1:50:39SPEAKER_03: Oh, okay.
- 1:50:40SPEAKER_03: I think it's all in the group chat.
- 1:50:45SPEAKER_03: How are you guys exiting?
- 1:50:48SPEAKER_00: I don't think we should dash.
- 1:50:49SPEAKER_00: We got through slowly in the first place.
- 1:50:51SPEAKER_00: That seemed to not alarm them.
- 1:50:53SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we'll do our dungeon crawl mode.
- 1:51:00SPEAKER_00: I'll just wait.
- 1:51:03SPEAKER_01: This time, I don't know if I should even deploy.
- 1:51:05Do I need to deploy,
- 1:51:10whatchamacallit,
- 1:51:11a torch if I'm following directly behind?
- 1:51:14You just won't be able to see anything,
- 1:51:20but you'll know that Dionys is right in front of you.
- 1:51:26SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:51:27SPEAKER_01: What do you guys think?
- 1:51:28SPEAKER_01: Would that be more helpful to you guys?
- 1:51:30SPEAKER_01: You'll basically be our eyes and ears at this point then.
- 1:51:35SPEAKER_01: At least for me, because I can't see in the dark.
- 1:51:37SPEAKER_01: I will hold your hand.
- 1:51:38SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 1:51:40SPEAKER_03: So you're doing the slow pace again?
- 1:51:42SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:51:44SPEAKER_02: Although I'm not lighting a torch this time.
- 1:51:46SPEAKER_03: Everybody roll a stealth check.
- 1:51:50SPEAKER_00: I'm bad at these.
- 1:51:58SPEAKER_01: 16.
- 1:51:58SPEAKER_01: Still bad.
- 1:52:06SPEAKER_03: Dianesh, why even roll anymore?
- 1:52:10SPEAKER_03: You guys did a lot better this time.
- 1:52:12SPEAKER_03: So you don't have to move at half speed.
- 1:52:18SPEAKER_00: Nice.
- 1:52:21SPEAKER_03: So you can move at full speed and make your way.
- 1:52:24SPEAKER_03: I'd say it takes you about...
- 1:52:28SPEAKER_03: 10-15 minutes to get back to the stairs.
- 1:52:31SPEAKER_02: Mm-hmm.
- 1:52:32SPEAKER_03: So you guys get back to the stairs,
- 1:52:34SPEAKER_03: and then you don't,
- 1:52:35SPEAKER_03: you...
- 1:52:37SPEAKER_03: The zombie,
- 1:52:38SPEAKER_03: the mummies didn't really move from where they were.
- 1:52:40Like,
- 1:52:40they were in the same general area,
- 1:52:42so you could,
- 1:52:42you kind of navigated around them.
- 1:52:46SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 1:52:47SPEAKER_03: And then, uh... Oh, man.
- 1:52:52SPEAKER_03: Got back to the lakeside.
- 1:52:55SPEAKER_00: To go back up the stairs.
- 1:52:58oh yeah it takes you the same amount of time it takes you
- 1:53:00longer to get up the
- 1:53:01stairs actually exhausting going up is always you get to the
- 1:53:08top you're panting
- 1:53:10sweaty unhappy the temperature while it's still cool it got
- 1:53:16warmer as you went up
- 1:53:18the stairs uh gross but it's cool like it's still a cool
- 1:53:23outside you're just your
- 1:53:25SPEAKER_03: body is sweating
- 1:53:27SPEAKER_03: the change in temperature was not happy.
- 1:53:29SPEAKER_01: I feel sticky.
- 1:53:34SPEAKER_01: Gross.
- 1:53:34SPEAKER_01: I'm sweating.
- 1:53:38SPEAKER_00: I mean, to be fair, I'm always... Do you smell?
- 1:53:44SPEAKER_00: I was about to say,
- 1:53:46SPEAKER_01: because,
- 1:53:47SPEAKER_01: like,
- 1:53:47SPEAKER_01: Ace is always,
- 1:53:48SPEAKER_01: like,
- 1:53:49SPEAKER_01: hydrated and whatnot,
- 1:53:50SPEAKER_01: so I can't imagine she would be smelling badly.
- 1:53:54SPEAKER_03: Um...
- 1:53:57Yeah,
- 1:53:57water genasi smell like the water that they grew up around for
- 1:54:01the most part.
- 1:54:04SPEAKER_03: They also are always slightly damp.
- 1:54:09SPEAKER_03: So she smells like salt water?
- 1:54:11SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 1:54:17SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 1:54:18SPEAKER_03: Very, very heavy salt water, actually.
- 1:54:22SPEAKER_02: Oh, really?
- 1:54:22SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 1:54:22SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 1:54:24SPEAKER_03: Well, that's just too much, then.
- 1:54:26SPEAKER_03: Too much.
- 1:54:27SPEAKER_00: But you smell too much of human.
- 1:54:30SPEAKER_03: You guys get to the top, panting, tired.
- 1:54:32SPEAKER_02: I smell like a pungent human.
- 1:54:37SPEAKER_03: And you don't see your ship.
- 1:54:42SPEAKER_02: Wait, what?
- 1:54:42SPEAKER_02: What?
- 1:54:44SPEAKER_02: What the hell is going on here?

- 1:55:31SPEAKER_03: The misfits just got out of the lover's tomb,
- 1:55:36SPEAKER_03: avoiding many mummies and Ace getting cursed by one.
- 1:55:42SPEAKER_03: As they emerged from the tomb, they found that their ship is missing.
- 1:55:50SPEAKER_03: So now, what are you guys going to do?
- 1:55:52SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 1:55:57I'm going to exclaim to the rest of the group,
- 1:55:59where the hell is the ship?
- 1:56:02SPEAKER_01: Where's Elish?
- 1:56:03SPEAKER_01: He was going off there.
- 1:56:04SPEAKER_01: What's going on?
- 1:56:09SPEAKER_01: Maybe there was a mutiny.
- 1:56:23a mutiny so randomly all of a sudden and you suppose they would
- 1:56:29have informed us of
- 1:56:30their planned mutiny i think if there was going to be a mutiny
- 1:56:35it would have
- 1:56:35happened you know what i don't think there was a mutiny but
- 1:56:41nonetheless we have no
- 1:56:44ship we're stranded what the fuck you're stranded i can you're
- 1:56:49not stranded there's
- 1:56:50SPEAKER_03: marshland attached to this island
- 1:56:54SPEAKER_01: Is it moving in the direction of the Dragon Temple?
- 1:56:59SPEAKER_03: You can pull out your map and look.
- 1:57:02SPEAKER_01: Hold on a second.
- 1:57:03SPEAKER_01: Where's that map?
- 1:57:05SPEAKER_00: My desktop.
- 1:57:10SPEAKER_00: Also, you're stranded, landlubber.
- 1:57:17SPEAKER_01: Oh yes, because you're queen of the waters, yes?
- 1:57:21SPEAKER_01: Yes!
- 1:57:29SPEAKER_01: Raspberries to you.
- 1:57:31Alright,
- 1:57:32so we're...
- 1:57:33I would expect you to have excretions from both your ass and
- 1:57:37mouth.
- 1:57:41SPEAKER_01: Keep it up, fish.
- 1:57:46SPEAKER_01: I'll see you in the water.
- 1:57:51SPEAKER_00: Oh no, not the water.
- 1:57:59SPEAKER_01: Not even looking at Ace anymore.
- 1:58:01SPEAKER_01: All right, so we are in the middle on the island in Lover's Lake here.
- 1:58:09Yeah,
- 1:58:12there's a lot of marshlands,
- 1:58:14but we could probably make our way over to the temple.
- 1:58:18It'll take a little bit unless we want to,
- 1:58:20you know,
- 1:58:24summon some steeds or some stuff.
- 1:58:28SPEAKER_03: You also have a flare.
- 1:58:33SPEAKER_01: Oh, that's true.
- 1:58:35SPEAKER_01: To call the ship.
- 1:58:35SPEAKER_01: Who's holding the flare?
- 1:58:37SPEAKER_03: Ace.
- 1:58:37SPEAKER_03: It was given to her by Elrin.
- 1:58:41SPEAKER_00: Are you sure you want to use it now?
- 1:58:44SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I don't know if we need to.
- 1:58:46SPEAKER_01: If we're just going to travel, we might as well travel.
- 1:58:51SPEAKER_03: Somebody make a perception check.
- 1:58:54SPEAKER_01: Who's good at those?
- 1:58:55SPEAKER_00: Me.
- 1:58:56SPEAKER_00: And Dad.
- 1:59:00SPEAKER_02: One of the ladies.
- 1:59:03SPEAKER_00: I'll do it.
- 1:59:05SPEAKER_03: I think, Ace, you're the best right now.
- 1:59:07SPEAKER_03: You're rolling real low on those, though.
- 1:59:10SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 1:59:11SPEAKER_00: I'm rolling pretty low on most things today.
- 1:59:13SPEAKER_01: Don't you have, like, a bardic inspiration luck or something like that?
- 1:59:17SPEAKER_03: She can't do it to herself yet.
- 1:59:19SPEAKER_03: Oh.
- 1:59:21SPEAKER_03: Scratches.
- 1:59:23SPEAKER_03: Um,
- 1:59:24SPEAKER_03: still,
- 1:59:24SPEAKER_03: looking off into the distance on the horizon line,
- 1:59:27SPEAKER_03: you do see an object approaching you that looks ship-like.
- 1:59:35SPEAKER_01: Well, are we heading back to Taoba, or are we exploring to the grassland?
- 1:59:43Well,
- 1:59:43if it's returning anyway,
- 1:59:44I say we save our flare and just explore till it gets here.
- 1:59:48SPEAKER_01: Wait, wait!
- 1:59:49SPEAKER_01: I can do a flare!
- 1:59:51SPEAKER_01: Can I try a Dragon Breath?
- 1:59:54SPEAKER_03: Sure, roll an Arcana check.
- 2:00:03SPEAKER_02: 21.
- 2:00:05SPEAKER_03: It's still the same as before.
- 2:00:06SPEAKER_03: It's about three feet in front of your face.
- 2:00:11SPEAKER_00: Did that count with my inspiration?
- 2:00:13SPEAKER_03: Oh, did you want it to inspire him?
- 2:00:14SPEAKER_03: Sure.
- 2:00:15SPEAKER_00: I said it kind of last second.
- 2:00:17SPEAKER_00: I don't think he heard me.
- 2:00:19SPEAKER_03: Malachi, add a... What's your inspiration die right now?
- 2:00:22SPEAKER_03: A d6?
- 2:00:22SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 2:00:27SPEAKER_03: Roll a d6, Malakai.
- 2:00:28SPEAKER_03: Yep.
- 2:00:28SPEAKER_02: I have five.
- 2:00:32SPEAKER_03: Still the same as before.
- 2:00:34SPEAKER_01: Dammit.
- 2:00:37SPEAKER_01: It was a 26.
- 2:00:38SPEAKER_01: I think I needed a 28.
- 2:00:39SPEAKER_01: Damn it.
- 2:00:40SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:00:45SPEAKER_03: The object is approaching the island at a rapid pace.
- 2:00:49SPEAKER_00: Oh, fuck.
- 2:00:50SPEAKER_00: Like, unusually rapid?
- 2:00:54You weren't off of your ship when you were moving as quickly as
- 2:00:57you were after you got chased.
- 2:01:00SPEAKER_03: So you don't know from the perspective of a bystander.
- 2:01:08SPEAKER_02: What does the object look like at this point?
- 2:01:10SPEAKER_03: It still looks ship-like.
- 2:01:11SPEAKER_03: It's still quite a ways in the distance.
- 2:01:15SPEAKER_01: Does it have like masts and whatnot?
- 2:01:17SPEAKER_03: It's too far away to tell.
- 2:01:18SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:01:20SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:01:24SPEAKER_00: I have concerns.
- 2:01:26SPEAKER_01: Oh, go ahead.
- 2:01:28SPEAKER_00: I just said I have concerns.
- 2:01:30We definitely need to invest in our spyglass or binoculars for
- 2:01:37situations like this.
- 2:01:39SPEAKER_00: Just put your hands around your eyes like this.
- 2:01:43SPEAKER_01: That doesn't... Oh.
- 2:01:46SPEAKER_01: No, wait, wait.
- 2:01:48SPEAKER_01: Don't, don't, don't, don't feed into it.
- 2:01:55SPEAKER_01: It makes me focus a little bit.
- 2:01:57SPEAKER_01: I mean, it keeps the sun out of my eyes.
- 2:02:03I'm just kind of chuckling to myself as I watch Penn and Ace
- 2:02:07put their hands over
- 2:02:08SPEAKER_01: their eyes like fake binoculars.
- 2:02:12SPEAKER_03: The ship is now within a couple hundred feet.
- 2:02:20SPEAKER_03: And...
- 2:02:23SPEAKER_03: You are relieved to see that it is indeed your ship.
- 2:02:29SPEAKER_00: Nice.
- 2:02:30SPEAKER_00: Are there people on it?
- 2:02:33SPEAKER_03: You need to get closer to see people,
- 2:02:35SPEAKER_03: but at least now you can make out the actual form that it's not just...
- 2:02:38SPEAKER_03: It's not an amorphous blob in the distance.
- 2:02:42Can I levitate and see if I can see better that our crew and
- 2:02:46Elish are okay?
- 2:02:48SPEAKER_03: Sure.
- 2:02:48SPEAKER_03: You can levitate.
- 2:02:49SPEAKER_03: You can only go up how far?
- 2:02:50SPEAKER_03: 30 feet?
- 2:02:52SPEAKER_00: I think 30, yeah.
- 2:02:53SPEAKER_03: Yeah, you can levitate 30 feet up.
- 2:02:58SPEAKER_03: Odd.
- 2:02:59SPEAKER_03: You see your crew.
- 2:03:03SPEAKER_00: But.
- 2:03:05SPEAKER_03: You don't see a blue five-tailed fox.
- 2:03:12SPEAKER_00: Is the hurdle around?
- 2:03:18SPEAKER_03: Nope.
- 2:03:23SPEAKER_03: I mean, the ship also looks a little banged up.
- 2:03:26SPEAKER_03: So they were definitely in combat.
- 2:03:31SPEAKER_00: Guys, I don't see Elish or the turtle.
- 2:03:37SPEAKER_01: I'm going to rush onto the ship when she says that.
- 2:03:47SPEAKER_03: Well, the ship's not there yet.
- 2:03:49SPEAKER_01: Oh no?
- 2:03:49SPEAKER_03: It's still a couple hundred feet out.
- 2:03:51SPEAKER_03: She's levitating, so she's yelling down to you.
- 2:03:54SPEAKER_03: Or speaking down to you.
- 2:03:57SPEAKER_01: Okay, I'm gonna yell back up.
- 2:03:59SPEAKER_01: What do you mean you don't see Elish?
- 2:04:01SPEAKER_01: He's a blue fox, you can't miss him.
- 2:04:05SPEAKER_00: He's not there.
- 2:04:05SPEAKER_03: Yeah, with your passive perception, he's definitely not there.
- 2:04:10SPEAKER_03: At least not on the ship.
- 2:04:17SPEAKER_01: Odd.
- 2:04:19SPEAKER_01: What do you think could have happened to him?
- 2:04:23SPEAKER_03: Malachi.
- 2:04:24SPEAKER_03: Hmm?
- 2:04:26SPEAKER_03: Roll a wisdom save.
- 2:04:29SPEAKER_00: What?
- 2:04:36SPEAKER_03: Ten.
- 2:04:38SPEAKER_03: You hear a voice in your head.
- 2:04:40SPEAKER_03: Oh.
- 2:04:41SPEAKER_03: Ah.
- 2:04:51SPEAKER_03: Celestials are so much fun to play with.
- 2:04:57SPEAKER_03: I look forward to seeing you all soon.
- 2:05:01SPEAKER_01: You bitch.
- 2:05:04SPEAKER_01: And I yell out, what did you do?
- 2:05:06SPEAKER_01: Did anyone else hear this or is it just me?
- 2:05:12SPEAKER_03: Just in your head.
- 2:05:15SPEAKER_01: I kind of yell out randomly so I'm sure no one knows exactly why.
- 2:05:21SPEAKER_00: What does who do?
- 2:05:22SPEAKER_00: Wait, what?
- 2:05:25SPEAKER_01: I think something happened to Elish.
- 2:05:30SPEAKER_01: I, um... I've been, uh... I've been hearing Sia.
- 2:05:39SPEAKER_01: Oh.
- 2:05:42SPEAKER_01: I don't know why.
- 2:05:43SPEAKER_02: Really?
- 2:05:49SPEAKER_01: I think she has Elish.
- 2:05:51SPEAKER_01: How long have you been hearing Sire?
- 2:05:52SPEAKER_01: Uh... Shortly after... What else have you heard from Sire?
- 2:06:05SPEAKER_01: She seems to be taunting us.
- 2:06:11SPEAKER_01: I don't know why.
- 2:06:11SPEAKER_01: But uh... Not too long after we left the temple...
- 2:06:24SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 2:06:26SPEAKER_01: I think she might have him, yeah.
- 2:06:35SPEAKER_01: Well, how could she have gotten him at this point?
- 2:06:41SPEAKER_01: Is she following us?
- 2:06:42SPEAKER_01: Say again?
- 2:06:54SPEAKER_01: That she was before.
- 2:06:55SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 2:06:59SPEAKER_01: But it feels really weird.
- 2:07:00SPEAKER_01: Do you think she has that?
- 2:07:04SPEAKER_01: I think it's really possible.
- 2:07:07SPEAKER_01: Um... Fuck.
- 2:07:11SPEAKER_03: The ship is now... Well, what else have you heard from her?
- 2:07:14Uh,
- 2:07:14within...
- 2:07:17Within the same distance it was when it dropped you guys off
- 2:07:19into shallow water.
- 2:07:22SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:07:23SPEAKER_01: Um...
- 2:07:23I'm going to motion to the group that the ship's here and we
- 2:07:28should probably start
- 2:07:28SPEAKER_01: heading back.
- 2:07:30SPEAKER_01: As we do, I'm going to answer Penn's question.
- 2:07:36SPEAKER_01: Again,
- 2:07:36she hasn't really told me anything other than to be the mocking
- 2:07:41bitch that she's
- 2:07:41SPEAKER_01: always been.
- 2:07:48SPEAKER_03: When you had like
- 2:07:52SPEAKER_03: a headache or something back in town.
- 2:07:53SPEAKER_03: Is that her?
- 2:07:56SPEAKER_03: Uh, yeah.
- 2:07:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:07:59SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:08:01SPEAKER_01: We'll talk about this later.
- 2:08:02SPEAKER_01: Of course.
- 2:08:06SPEAKER_01: Let's get on the ship.
- 2:08:13As you all get on the ship,
- 2:08:15Deionis,
- 2:08:16I need you to roll a wisdom saving throw.
- 2:08:34SPEAKER_03: Who?
- 2:08:41SPEAKER_03: Oh, you hear a voice in your head.
- 2:08:47SPEAKER_03: I wonder how the rest of your family is faring.
- 2:08:53SPEAKER_03: I hope this reunion with your sister isn't cut short.
- 2:09:03SPEAKER_00: What the hell is that supposed to mean?
- 2:09:06SPEAKER_03: You all hear Diana say this out loud as you guys are getting on the ship.
- 2:09:14SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna look back to where I'm like, is she in your head too?
- 2:09:22SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that bitch is starting to protect my sister or some shit.
- 2:09:25SPEAKER_00: Like, what if something could happen to her?
- 2:09:28SPEAKER_01: We need to find this.
- 2:09:33SPEAKER_01: I'm going to start yelling into the sky and be like, Come out, coward!
- 2:09:40SPEAKER_01: Hey!
- 2:09:41SPEAKER_01: And I'm actually going to try another dragon breath if I can.
- 2:09:44SPEAKER_03: No yelling on the ship.
- 2:09:46SPEAKER_03: It distracts the crew.
- 2:09:51SPEAKER_01: Sorry.
- 2:09:53SPEAKER_03: Sorry.
- 2:09:55SPEAKER_03: Save your shenanigans for when we disembark.
- 2:10:04SPEAKER_02: You are the captain.
- 2:10:06SPEAKER_03: No, this is actually her first mate talking.
- 2:10:09SPEAKER_02: Oh.
- 2:10:12SPEAKER_03: A portly, stocky human fellow.
- 2:10:18SPEAKER_01: Respect the rules.
- 2:10:19I'm going to look down on them and just be like,
- 2:10:22where's your sleeping quarters?
- 2:10:27SPEAKER_03: Below deck where they've always been.
- 2:10:31SPEAKER_03: Is there anything that you should have us do?
- 2:10:34SPEAKER_03: Is there anything that needs to be done on the ship?
- 2:10:38SPEAKER_03: Like, I see that you guys took some damage with that dragon turtle.
- 2:10:43SPEAKER_03: Is there anything I can do to help?
- 2:10:46SPEAKER_03: Unless any of you are skilled with...
- 2:10:49And he scratches his chin and the little bit of his belly
- 2:10:52that's sticking out from
- 2:10:54SPEAKER_03: his shirt.
- 2:10:54SPEAKER_03: None of you are good with repairing wood.
- 2:11:05SPEAKER_03: I engraved wood,
- 2:11:06but I can at least bring the supplies to the person doing the
- 2:11:10repairs to cut down.
- 2:11:12SPEAKER_03: If you would like to, that would speed up the repair process.
- 2:11:15SPEAKER_03: We're probably going to be here for the rest of today.
- 2:11:18SPEAKER_03: We're not going to be able to sail to your next destination.
- 2:11:25SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:11:26SPEAKER_03: I will be your mule.
- 2:11:29SPEAKER_03: Point the way...
- 2:11:32SPEAKER_03: He waves someone else over and someone...
- 2:11:35This halfling runs over to you and is kind of mesmerized by
- 2:11:41your emerald scales and
- 2:11:43SPEAKER_03: glimmer before leading you over to...
- 2:11:47It's female halfling leading you over to the supplies and where
- 2:11:51they're repairing.
- 2:11:55SPEAKER_03: Malachi, make an arcana check.
- 2:12:05SPEAKER_03: Nope.
- 2:12:07SPEAKER_03: You are too frustrated to focus on getting the breath out.
- 2:12:11SPEAKER_01: I was going to luck that.
- 2:12:13SPEAKER_03: Oh, you can luck it, sure.
- 2:12:16SPEAKER_01: That was dookie.
- 2:12:23SPEAKER_01: Are you fucking... No, I'm lucking that too.
- 2:12:24SPEAKER_01: That's a nat 1.
- 2:12:25SPEAKER_01: Absolutely not.
- 2:12:27SPEAKER_03: You can choose to use the other one.
- 2:12:29SPEAKER_03: You don't have to luck again, but it's up to you.
- 2:12:32SPEAKER_01: Say that again?
- 2:12:32SPEAKER_01: Oh, okay.
- 2:12:34SPEAKER_01: Yeah, then I'll just, I'll stay with the other one.
- 2:12:36Yeah,
- 2:12:37you can use luck,
- 2:12:38but you don't have to use the new role,
- 2:12:39I don't believe.
- 2:12:41SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 2:12:43Either way,
- 2:12:44they have the same,
- 2:12:44like,
- 2:12:45the Nat one doesn't eliminate your progress.
- 2:12:46SPEAKER_03: They just have the same result.
- 2:12:47SPEAKER_03: You're too frustrated to focus on channeling a Dragon Breath right now.
- 2:12:51SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:12:53SPEAKER_01: I feel, I do feel the frustration.
- 2:12:57SPEAKER_03: Deonis, did you go to the sleeping quarters?
- 2:12:59SPEAKER_03: No.
- 2:13:05SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 2:13:06SPEAKER_03: Alright, your sister followed you and so did Draco.
- 2:13:08SPEAKER_03: Go ahead, Malachi.
- 2:13:14SPEAKER_01: Oh no, just remarking on the frustration.
- 2:13:16SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:13:17SPEAKER_03: Ace, what are you doing?
- 2:13:21I'm just going to find a place to sit that's out of the way and
- 2:13:25look at my books.
- 2:13:27SPEAKER_03: Are you looking for anything in particular?
- 2:13:31SPEAKER_00: No.
- 2:13:37So you are sitting...
- 2:13:38Did you want to sit and stay outside,
- 2:13:40or did you want to go below deck?
- 2:13:43SPEAKER_00: I'll go sit with Dianus and Devlin and Draco.
- 2:13:47SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:13:48SPEAKER_03: You all go below deck.
- 2:13:50SPEAKER_03: You find similar sleeping quarters to where you were before.
- 2:13:54I just realized you're one of those families that starts
- 2:13:57everybody's name with the same letter.
- 2:13:59SPEAKER_03: Oh, Dianus, Devlin, and Draco.
- 2:14:07SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:14:09SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it's easy to remember.
- 2:14:10SPEAKER_00: Triple D instead of double D. You can also share monogrammed everything.
- 2:14:15SPEAKER_03: Everyone likes Triple D, so... Don't hear anybody arguing.
- 2:14:29It is almost impossible for me to fit my bras into a drawer,
- 2:14:32so how about that?
- 2:14:37SPEAKER_01: I could wear your bra as a beanie.
- 2:14:41SPEAKER_00: Very annoying.
- 2:14:50SPEAKER_03: Are you actually sleeping in your sleeping quarters,
- 2:14:52SPEAKER_03: Dionys,
- 2:14:53SPEAKER_03: or are you just going down there to,
- 2:14:54SPEAKER_03: like,
- 2:14:55SPEAKER_03: chill out?
- 2:14:57I'm just going down there to chill out because I'm a little
- 2:15:00pissed off about people
- 2:15:02SPEAKER_01: being in my head.
- 2:15:03SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:15:04SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:15:08SPEAKER_03: Your sister just kind of sits with you and leans on your shoulder.
- 2:15:11And you notice Ace following right behind you with a book out,
- 2:15:14kind of reading while walking.
- 2:15:16I'm just going to pat my sister on the head and tell her I'm
- 2:15:22going to protect you
- 2:15:23SPEAKER_00: as much as I can.
- 2:15:24SPEAKER_00: You know that.
- 2:15:28SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 2:15:29SPEAKER_03: And I will protect you.
- 2:15:37SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:15:38SPEAKER_03: She smiles and hugs you.
- 2:15:39SPEAKER_00: Like, what are you doing?
- 2:15:42SPEAKER_00: What are you reading?
- 2:15:46SPEAKER_00: We'll just hold up the cover, whatever I have.
- 2:15:51I think I'm probably looking through my magic book to see if
- 2:15:57there's anything on
- 2:15:59SPEAKER_00: curses,
- 2:15:59SPEAKER_00: but not with any sort of passion.
- 2:16:03so she has one of the books that you guys found in the temple
- 2:16:09library about
- 2:16:12specifically different types of magics and the arcane and she
- 2:16:18looks to be on a
- 2:16:19section about curses and curse removal but just general
- 2:16:27information not any
- 2:16:28SPEAKER_03: specifics on anything
- 2:16:40SPEAKER_00: Did you find anything interesting?
- 2:16:45SPEAKER_03: Say again.
- 2:16:45SPEAKER_00: I asked Ace if she found anything interesting.
- 2:16:53SPEAKER_00: Having a hard time sleeping.
- 2:16:59SPEAKER_00: Did you have anything?
- 2:17:03SPEAKER_00: Sorry, what?
- 2:17:03SPEAKER_00: You're a little ugly.
- 2:17:08SPEAKER_00: Hold on.
- 2:17:08SPEAKER_01: Sorry.
- 2:17:10SPEAKER_00: It's the damn ship's bowels.
- 2:17:12SPEAKER_00: It's so echoey in here.
- 2:17:14SPEAKER_00: Someone should put down a rug.
- 2:17:15SPEAKER_00: Absorb something.
- 2:17:16SPEAKER_00: Too acoustic.
- 2:17:20SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
- 2:17:21But I asked if you had anything interesting yet that you're
- 2:17:24reading up on.
- 2:17:29SPEAKER_00: I seem to be cursed even when I'm not cursed.
- 2:17:32SPEAKER_00: So may as well prepare for it.
- 2:17:38SPEAKER_00: Is there any way that we can reverse...
- 2:17:40SPEAKER_00: Any curses?
- 2:17:44SPEAKER_00: The kind where you lose everybody that you care about.
- 2:17:49SPEAKER_00: If you have any to begin with.
- 2:17:59SPEAKER_00: Not much for magic.
- 2:18:00SPEAKER_00: I don't know how curses really work sometimes.
- 2:18:04SPEAKER_00: Me neither.
- 2:18:09SPEAKER_00: I'll let you know if I find anything though.
- 2:18:12SPEAKER_03: That's an interesting concept.
- 2:18:17SPEAKER_00: Stop it.
- 2:18:19SPEAKER_00: We're bantering.
- 2:18:20SPEAKER_00: You stop having ideas.
- 2:18:29SPEAKER_00: I'll hand Dianis the book on mummies that I have as well.
- 2:18:32SPEAKER_00: Mummies.
- 2:18:38SPEAKER_03: So the book she hands you,
- 2:18:39SPEAKER_03: it's a very old looking book,
- 2:18:42SPEAKER_03: but the cover is very,
- 2:18:44SPEAKER_03: it's a plain cover,
- 2:18:45SPEAKER_03: but it has very ornate like drawings on it.
- 2:18:49SPEAKER_03: Symbols.
- 2:18:54SPEAKER_03: There are some pictures, but it's mostly text on the inside.
- 2:18:59SPEAKER_03: You can just read it leisurely or you could try to find information.
- 2:19:02SPEAKER_03: It is up to you.
- 2:19:06SPEAKER_00: I'm just doing it leisurely.
- 2:19:07SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:19:09SPEAKER_03: So you just,
- 2:19:10SPEAKER_03: at a glance,
- 2:19:11you just find information about various different traditions of
- 2:19:17mummifying and
- 2:19:18SPEAKER_03: where they came from and stories and theories and,
- 2:19:25SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 2:19:25SPEAKER_03: what people are trying to understand.
- 2:19:29SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 2:19:31Nothing too detailed that would go over your head when you're
- 2:19:34not really trying to
- 2:19:34SPEAKER_03: focus on it,
- 2:19:35SPEAKER_03: just base level information.
- 2:19:36SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 2:19:41SPEAKER_03: The rest of your day continues unhindered.
- 2:19:45SPEAKER_03: Repairs to the ship are done.
- 2:19:48SPEAKER_03: The night crew comes out as well.
- 2:19:54SPEAKER_03: You all may choose to join the crew for dinner.
- 2:20:02SPEAKER_03: as they cook up some food.
- 2:20:06SPEAKER_03: It's various types of crustaceans and seafood mixed with rations.
- 2:20:14SPEAKER_03: Go ahead, Penn.
- 2:20:14SPEAKER_03: I'm definitely gonna eat something.
- 2:20:19SPEAKER_03: I'm definitely gonna eat something after hauling around at least for fun.
- 2:20:21SPEAKER_03: It's gonna work up an appetite.
- 2:20:22SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:20:24SPEAKER_03: Go ahead, Dionys.
- 2:20:30SPEAKER_00: I just said we gotta eat.
- 2:20:31SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:20:35SPEAKER_03: And it's... Ace-lug seafood, so there's that.
- 2:20:38SPEAKER_03: Malachi?
- 2:20:40SPEAKER_01: I do.
- 2:20:40SPEAKER_01: I'm starving,
- 2:20:41SPEAKER_01: so I actually...
- 2:20:42SPEAKER_01: I grab a big heaping plate full,
- 2:20:44SPEAKER_01: but if it's nighttime,
- 2:20:46SPEAKER_01: then I like...
- 2:20:47SPEAKER_01: I actually really like looking out at the stars on the deck of the ship,
- 2:20:51SPEAKER_01: so I'm gonna eat my food out there.
- 2:20:54SPEAKER_03: That's where the food is, for the most part.
- 2:20:56SPEAKER_03: They've got...
- 2:20:59a uh cook pot going with a magical fire and okay they put it
- 2:21:03out on the deck of the
- 2:21:04ship it's a clear night again it's a little breezy you're on
- 2:21:07the water uh it is
- 2:21:09colder season right now and you know there's an ice dragon in
- 2:21:11the mountain so um
- 2:21:16but it's nice it's not like bone chilling cold it's like
- 2:21:20there's a slight chill
- 2:21:21SPEAKER_03: down your spine every here and there but otherwise it's still comfortable
- 2:21:27SPEAKER_03: It's like the beginning of fall weather.
- 2:21:30SPEAKER_03: Comfortable.
- 2:21:35SPEAKER_03: The food is good.
- 2:21:38SPEAKER_03: They definitely know how to make their seafood.
- 2:21:40SPEAKER_03: It's just a seafood medley stew, basically.
- 2:21:44SPEAKER_03: Nice.
- 2:21:46SPEAKER_03: They don't have anything fancy to cook on,
- 2:21:51SPEAKER_03: but they do have various seasonings and spices to season the stew.
- 2:21:58SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 2:21:59SPEAKER_01: Any Cajun spices?
- 2:22:01SPEAKER_03: They have, um, they have their version of a Cajun-esque spice.
- 2:22:09SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 2:22:13You guys eat,
- 2:22:13uh,
- 2:22:15Devlin eats,
- 2:22:17I assume,
- 2:22:17Dionys,
- 2:22:18that you give Draco some.
- 2:22:24SPEAKER_02: Oh, always.
- 2:22:27SPEAKER_03: And he does like his fish.
- 2:22:29SPEAKER_03: So unless there's any other conversations you guys would like to have,
- 2:22:36SPEAKER_03: you guys will turn in for the night.
- 2:22:40SPEAKER_01: I actually would like to,
- 2:22:41SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 2:22:43kind of gather the misfits around real quick just to see if
- 2:22:46anyone else has heard
- 2:22:47SPEAKER_01: Sia in their heads aside from me and Dionysus.
- 2:22:52Okay.
- 2:22:53SPEAKER_01: And I know that Penn wanted to
- 2:22:56SPEAKER_01: about that a little bit.
- 2:22:57SPEAKER_01: If you wanted to go further, I have no problem answering questions.
- 2:23:03SPEAKER_01: I just don't know much.
- 2:23:08Well,
- 2:23:10I know back in the town,
- 2:23:12I had...
- 2:23:18I wasn't sure exactly,
- 2:23:19but I got a message from Yak.
- 2:23:24SPEAKER_03: And he was saying that he was...
- 2:23:27SPEAKER_03: From Yak, my shaman, my father.
- 2:23:31SPEAKER_03: Yes, yes.
- 2:23:35SPEAKER_03: And he's saying that he doesn't know where he is.
- 2:23:40SPEAKER_03: And he's very cold.
- 2:23:41SPEAKER_03: And there was like a dragon in the background.
- 2:23:44SPEAKER_03: But then I think I heard her.
- 2:23:48So I don't know if it was really him or if it was just her
- 2:23:51playing mind game for him.
- 2:23:53SPEAKER_03: That's why I'm asking to see it.
- 2:23:56SPEAKER_01: Anybody else heard anything now since we got brought up?
- 2:24:01SPEAKER_01: In addition to,
- 2:24:02SPEAKER_01: you know,
- 2:24:03SPEAKER_01: to the mocking that she's been playing around with,
- 2:24:08SPEAKER_01: I also saw my...
- 2:24:13SPEAKER_01: Oh,
- 2:24:13SPEAKER_01: I saw the person who raised me dying at the hands of a dragon.
- 2:24:20SPEAKER_01: Oh, dying.
- 2:24:21SPEAKER_01: I didn't see what killed him, but I did hear...
- 2:24:25SPEAKER_01: a large dragon cry.
- 2:24:29I kind of shudder when I say that because the thought of Urlach
- 2:24:33dying is troubling.
- 2:24:39SPEAKER_01: So it sounds like we have possible two important people to us,
- 2:24:46SPEAKER_01: loved ones,
- 2:24:49SPEAKER_01: possibly captured by or killed,
- 2:24:53SPEAKER_01: hopefully not killed.
- 2:24:54SPEAKER_01: I don't
- 2:24:56SPEAKER_03: by Cryovain or... with Shia messing with us.
- 2:25:07SPEAKER_01: What can you tell us about this Cryovain?
- 2:25:14SPEAKER_01: That he was just...
- 2:25:17SPEAKER_03: Back when I was trying to figure out what was going on,
- 2:25:21SPEAKER_03: I just know that he got pushed out of his home by...
- 2:25:27SPEAKER_03: more powerful adult dragon.
- 2:25:30He's just entered adulthood,
- 2:25:32but more powerful dragon came out and pushed him out of his
- 2:25:35home.
- 2:25:37And he was making a new home in the,
- 2:25:40uh,
- 2:25:43in the peaks near,
- 2:25:45uh,
- 2:25:45this road coast.
- 2:25:47And he was changing the environment and making a cola there and
- 2:25:51threatening the
- 2:25:51SPEAKER_03: livestock and eating the livestock and such.
- 2:26:02SPEAKER_03: Um,
- 2:26:02SPEAKER_03: Dev,
- 2:26:02do you know anything else about Chiralvein besides a little bit
- 2:26:07of information that
- 2:26:08SPEAKER_03: I got while I was there?
- 2:26:13SPEAKER_03: Not really, I was just following my sister's footsteps.
- 2:26:24SPEAKER_03: I didn't know it would lead to the dragon.
- 2:26:32SPEAKER_01: Either way, it sounds like we need to deal with this cryo vein.
- 2:26:37SPEAKER_03: Has anybody else heard any voices regarding this dragon?
- 2:26:53SPEAKER_03: I guess not.
- 2:26:56SPEAKER_03: Has anybody else heard Zion?
- 2:26:58SPEAKER_03: Besides...
- 2:27:00SPEAKER_00: She said something to you before about your dev, or... Yes?
- 2:27:10SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:27:11SPEAKER_00: She basically... Yeah, she told me that.
- 2:27:16SPEAKER_01: Does she threaten her?
- 2:27:21SPEAKER_00: Kind of, in a way, yeah.
- 2:27:25SPEAKER_01: So she's going after our loved one.
- 2:27:30SPEAKER_03: Well, we have all that in common.
- 2:27:31SPEAKER_03: Anything from you, Ace?
- 2:27:34SPEAKER_00: I didn't hear her.
- 2:27:35SPEAKER_00: I haven't heard her for a while.
- 2:27:38SPEAKER_00: But I did see her.
- 2:27:40SPEAKER_00: Really?
- 2:27:42SPEAKER_01: Wait, you seen her?
- 2:27:45SPEAKER_00: She was on the throne of Elisha's castle.
- 2:27:55SPEAKER_01: When did you see her?
- 2:27:58I went to check up on his kingdom after we saw the screens and
- 2:28:06he was so worried
- 2:28:07about his home so I asked my patron to help me see and all I
- 2:28:15found all I found was
- 2:28:18SPEAKER_03: her You didn't tell Elish this,
- 2:28:25SPEAKER_03: did you?
- 2:28:27SPEAKER_00: I did
- 2:28:30SPEAKER_00: Just before we got to the island.
- 2:28:41SPEAKER_01: I hope he didn't go on a solo mission to try to save his kingdom.
- 2:28:48SPEAKER_00: I don't know how he would get there.
- 2:28:51None of us have been able to figure out the best scientists
- 2:28:55brought here have been
- 2:28:56SPEAKER_00: able to figure out how to get anybody back to where they came from.
- 2:29:01SPEAKER_03: I'm sorry I overheard your conversation.
- 2:29:04SPEAKER_03: Is, uh... Elish the blue guy?
- 2:29:08SPEAKER_03: Not... Not the blue gal.
- 2:29:10SPEAKER_03: The blue guy.
- 2:29:13SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:29:15SPEAKER_03: Yeah, he got swallowed up by a... portal or something.
- 2:29:24SPEAKER_01: Would it appear on the ship?
- 2:29:26SPEAKER_03: Actually, he jumped off the ship in the water to try and, uh...
- 2:29:31fight off the uh the thing and uh he did with our help we
- 2:29:40barraged it from afar
- 2:29:41while he kept its attention but after it went down he got
- 2:29:47sucked into a portal did
- 2:29:51you happen to see what color the portal was uh no we were busy
- 2:29:56trying to keep the
- 2:29:57SPEAKER_03: ship from sinking we just saw a flash and he was gone
- 2:30:03SPEAKER_03: Did the turtle go with him, or was it just him?
- 2:30:06SPEAKER_03: I don't know if the turtle went with him.
- 2:30:08SPEAKER_03: All I know is that we stopped getting attacked after the flash.
- 2:30:13SPEAKER_00: Hmm.
- 2:30:17SPEAKER_00: Thank you, sir.
- 2:30:22SPEAKER_03: He nods and meanders off.
- 2:30:25SPEAKER_03: Obviously half drunk.
- 2:30:26Hmm.
- 2:30:32SPEAKER_01: Okay, so... I got stuck up into a portal.
- 2:30:40Like...
- 2:30:42I think it's the same...
- 2:30:43Is it the same portal that Sia fell into in the temple?
- 2:30:50It's possible,
- 2:30:51but that's why I was asking what color the temple portal was.
- 2:30:54SPEAKER_01: If it was a hellish portal, it might have been a darker color.
- 2:31:00Yeah,
- 2:31:01I just don't remember what the portal looked like that she fell
- 2:31:10into.
- 2:31:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I was like right there.
- 2:31:14SPEAKER_01: I would have seen like the color and whatnot of the portal, right?
- 2:31:17SPEAKER_03: Didn't have a color, it was just a portal.
- 2:31:19SPEAKER_01: It was just a portal?
- 2:31:21SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 2:31:21SPEAKER_01: A colorless portal?
- 2:31:22SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:31:24SPEAKER_03: The opening showed where she was going.
- 2:31:27SPEAKER_03: It was the same castle that you had first seen when you first saw her.
- 2:31:33SPEAKER_03: Same photo at her statue.
- 2:31:36SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 2:31:38Ace,
- 2:31:40what did this castle,
- 2:31:41what did the throne,
- 2:31:43did you see where the throne was situated?
- 2:31:48SPEAKER_01: Was it in a building of some sort or a room?
- 2:31:51SPEAKER_01: No.
- 2:31:54SPEAKER_01: What did the castle look like?
- 2:31:57SPEAKER_00: Grand.
- 2:31:58SPEAKER_00: Lots of broken statues.
- 2:32:02SPEAKER_01: DM, was this the same castle that I saw?
- 2:32:05SPEAKER_01: Nope.
- 2:32:07SPEAKER_01: No?
- 2:32:07SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:32:08It's the one that we saw that Elish identified as his home when
- 2:32:12we saw the screens.
- 2:32:14SPEAKER_01: Ah, okay.
- 2:32:16SPEAKER_01: I just thought we might have been seeing the same castle.
- 2:32:19SPEAKER_03: Nope.
- 2:32:20SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:32:22SPEAKER_01: Understood.
- 2:32:25SPEAKER_01: Either way, it's clear that she's messing with all of us.
- 2:32:31SPEAKER_01: I look at Dayanis and Devlin and I say,
- 2:32:33you two hold each other close because I imagine you'll need
- 2:32:38each other in the
- 2:32:39SPEAKER_01: coming battles.
- 2:32:48SPEAKER_03: Devlin just hugs Dayanis and kind of yawns and rubs her eyes.
- 2:33:01For all her ferocity on the battlefield,
- 2:33:03she is still your younger sister,
- 2:33:05Dayonis.
- 2:33:19SPEAKER_01: Is there anything else?
- 2:33:24SPEAKER_03: I know that with all of us together, we can take our faith.
- 2:33:33SPEAKER_00: Apparently we have far too many castles to keep track of.
- 2:33:38SPEAKER_00: We've got a castle each.
- 2:33:40SPEAKER_00: Somebody should really just build like a hut.
- 2:33:45SPEAKER_00: Or a duplex.
- 2:33:49SPEAKER_01: What is a duplex?
- 2:33:51SPEAKER_00: Two houses, but in one.
- 2:33:53SPEAKER_01: Sounds messy.
- 2:33:58SPEAKER_00: That's just common.
- 2:34:01SPEAKER_00: Huh.
- 2:34:03SPEAKER_01: Is it like... Like when you put two beds together?
- 2:34:10SPEAKER_01: They make one?
- 2:34:13SPEAKER_00: Where I come from, there are cities.
- 2:34:16And cities have all kinds of buildings and practically stacked
- 2:34:21on top of each other sometimes.
- 2:34:23SPEAKER_00: Not my kind of place, but a lot of people live there.
- 2:34:30SPEAKER_01: That all sounds very cramped.
- 2:34:32SPEAKER_01: And you're under the water?
- 2:34:33SPEAKER_01: No, I don't live under the water.
- 2:34:38SPEAKER_00: What am I, a mermaid?
- 2:34:39SPEAKER_01: Well, you are a fish.
- 2:34:43SPEAKER_01: I'm not a fish.
- 2:34:47SPEAKER_01: I thought maybe you were a mermaid, to tell you the truth.
- 2:34:52SPEAKER_01: See?
- 2:34:53SPEAKER_01: Fish lady.
- 2:34:54SPEAKER_00: I'm as much a fish as you are a monkey.
- 2:35:04SPEAKER_03: Ace,
- 2:35:05you do recall that there were merfolk called the Tritons that
- 2:35:16you used to at least
- 2:35:17SPEAKER_03: encounter on a semi-regular basis.
- 2:35:21SPEAKER_00: Yes, but I'm not one of them.
- 2:35:22SPEAKER_03: You are not one of them.
- 2:35:23SPEAKER_03: The hymn saying mermaid kind of triggers that memory for you.
- 2:35:30SPEAKER_00: Is that good or bad?
- 2:35:33It's just information that you were not actively thinking about
- 2:35:38currently.
- 2:35:42You also recalled talking about your city that the primary city
- 2:35:46of Tui was indeed
- 2:35:50SPEAKER_03: quite populated for your normal tribal cities.
- 2:35:56SPEAKER_03: And houses were indeed on top of each other.
- 2:35:59SPEAKER_03: Although your
- 2:36:00main living space in the castle was towards the coast and in a
- 2:36:08rather rural area.
- 2:36:11SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 2:36:13SPEAKER_00: We got supplies from the city sometimes.
- 2:36:23If there's nothing else,
- 2:36:24your night ends with conversation,
- 2:36:28good food,
- 2:36:29and
- 2:36:30SPEAKER_03: A good atmosphere.
- 2:36:34SPEAKER_03: It's very calm, very relaxing and peaceful.
- 2:36:36SPEAKER_03: You can see the night sky with the stars.
- 2:36:43SPEAKER_01: What do the stars look like?
- 2:36:45I mean,
- 2:36:45because I'm guessing we're not dealing with the same
- 2:36:47constellations.
- 2:36:48SPEAKER_03: They look like stars.
- 2:36:51SPEAKER_00: They start to shine like you've had too much wine.
- 2:36:54SPEAKER_03: Is Ace singing right now?
- 2:36:58SPEAKER_03: I mean, that's what was happening, yes.
- 2:37:01SPEAKER_01: Oh, Lord.
- 2:37:04SPEAKER_01: Well, you're a bard.
- 2:37:05SPEAKER_01: Bust out a song, then.
- 2:37:08SPEAKER_01: I was.
- 2:37:10SPEAKER_00: Continue.
- 2:37:17SPEAKER_00: I was unprepared.
- 2:37:18I will say that Ace sings you all a lullaby as you prepare to
- 2:37:23turn in for the night.
- 2:37:26SPEAKER_03: I was just going to say that.
- 2:37:27SPEAKER_03: I'll take that.
- 2:37:32SPEAKER_03: Whoever needs it, you can hit the long rest button again.
- 2:37:38SPEAKER_00: What did you say the name of the city was again?
- 2:37:40SPEAKER_03: Chewie.
- 2:37:43SPEAKER_00: That's funny.
- 2:37:43SPEAKER_00: Uh... Sorry.
- 2:37:47Between that and then you immediately said lullaby,
- 2:37:50it makes me think of that old Irish lullaby.
- 2:37:52SPEAKER_00: Oh.
- 2:37:54SPEAKER_00: To-ra-loo-ra-loo-ra To-ra-loo-ra-loo-ra-lee
- 2:38:02SPEAKER_00: Something along those lines.
- 2:38:10SPEAKER_03: That is the lullaby that you are all lulled to sleep with.
- 2:38:18SPEAKER_03: So yes, you guys may hit the long rest button if you so need to.
- 2:38:24SPEAKER_03: And as you...
- 2:38:28Awaken the next morning the ships are already on its way to its
- 2:38:32next destination
- 2:38:43SPEAKER_03: Some meager breakfast is prepared Not as extravagant as the previous day,
- 2:38:51SPEAKER_03: but Still better than rations
- 2:39:01SPEAKER_01: I'm going to eat my breakfast.
- 2:39:04Okay.
- 2:39:05And then go off to somewhere where I can kick my feet off and
- 2:39:14continue my project
- 2:39:16SPEAKER_03: until we get to wherever we're going.
- 2:39:18SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 2:39:22SPEAKER_00: I wish to ask Malachi for something.
- 2:39:29SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:39:30SPEAKER_03: Go ahead.
- 2:39:32SPEAKER_00: Is he awake?
- 2:39:34SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 2:39:35SPEAKER_03: Everyone's eaten breakfast.
- 2:39:37SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 2:39:40SPEAKER_00: As you may have noticed, I'm not much for weapons.
- 2:39:46Do you think you could give me some pointers on showing me how
- 2:39:49to use my war drum?
- 2:39:57SPEAKER_03: Malachi.
- 2:40:10SPEAKER_01: You know that was directed at us?
- 2:40:12SPEAKER_03: I think we lost Malachi.
- 2:40:14SPEAKER_01: Oh no, sorry, can you guys hear me?
- 2:40:16SPEAKER_03: Now we can, yes.
- 2:40:17SPEAKER_01: Yeah, sorry, I was, um, my computer glitched out on me.
- 2:40:21SPEAKER_01: Um, Ace, go ahead again.
- 2:40:24SPEAKER_00: As you might have noticed, I'm not particularly good with weapons.
- 2:40:29Do you think you could help me with my war drum and I'll help
- 2:40:33you with your dragon sword?
- 2:40:35SPEAKER_01: Ho-ho!
- 2:40:37SPEAKER_01: Absolutely!
- 2:40:38SPEAKER_01: And I jump up at the notion.
- 2:40:41SPEAKER_01: What would you like to train first?
- 2:40:45SPEAKER_00: Uh... I guess... I guess it doesn't matter.
- 2:40:50SPEAKER_00: You're always very eager to try.
- 2:40:52SPEAKER_01: Alright,
- 2:40:53SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna take out my axe then,
- 2:40:56SPEAKER_01: because I don't...
- 2:40:58I refuse to use my greatsword with anybody unless I'm intent on
- 2:41:04killing them,
- 2:41:04SPEAKER_01: so...
- 2:41:05SPEAKER_01: I take out the axe.
- 2:41:07SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:41:08SPEAKER_01: And I'm like, get ready.
- 2:41:11SPEAKER_00: Oh.
- 2:41:12SPEAKER_00: This is how it's done.
- 2:41:13SPEAKER_01: It's how it starts.
- 2:41:17SPEAKER_00: We just try to kill each other?
- 2:41:18SPEAKER_01: Oh, you're going to try and kill me.
- 2:41:22SPEAKER_01: And I'm going to defend myself.
- 2:41:25SPEAKER_00: Oh, dear.
- 2:41:25SPEAKER_00: All right.
- 2:41:28SPEAKER_00: I'm on.
- 2:41:31SPEAKER_03: Ace, go ahead and roll and attack with your wardrobe.
- 2:41:35I'm going to use two hands just because I feel like that's
- 2:41:37something she would do
- 2:41:38SPEAKER_00: when she's super nervous.
- 2:41:40SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:41:40SPEAKER_00: 18.
- 2:41:45SPEAKER_01: That hits.
- 2:41:53SPEAKER_00: Do I roll damage?
- 2:41:54SPEAKER_00: I feel bad.
- 2:41:55SPEAKER_00: I want to damage him.
- 2:41:56SPEAKER_03: It's up to you.
- 2:41:57SPEAKER_03: How are you sparring?
- 2:41:58SPEAKER_03: Are you rolling to hit?
- 2:42:00SPEAKER_03: Are you rolling to do damage?
- 2:42:01SPEAKER_03: Or are you pulling your punches?
- 2:42:03SPEAKER_00: I don't want to hurt him.
- 2:42:04SPEAKER_00: I just want to, like, get better.
- 2:42:08SPEAKER_01: Hold on real quick,
- 2:42:09SPEAKER_01: because if she pulls her punches,
- 2:42:10SPEAKER_01: does that mean that she's not going to improve?
- 2:42:15SPEAKER_03: She already has proficiency in the weapons.
- 2:42:19SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:42:20SPEAKER_03: There's nothing really to improve.
- 2:42:23she's fairly good with it it's more of a um an opportunity for
- 2:42:26me to help you with
- 2:42:27your dragon's breath and just for purposes and it's also flavor
- 2:42:32like it also makes
- 2:42:33sense because ace has never actually used a weapon yeah story
- 2:42:37purposes i appreciate
- 2:42:38it i just feel bad because i'd be getting more out of this than
- 2:42:42you would no it's
- 2:42:43SPEAKER_01: fine is there any way to increase her modifier no no okay no well
- 2:42:52SPEAKER_01: Then by all means, please pull the punch on that bardic one.
- 2:42:57SPEAKER_03: So you're doing the classic sparring thing where you're just defending.
- 2:43:01SPEAKER_03: You're not striking back.
- 2:43:03SPEAKER_03: So even though her hits hit,
- 2:43:06they're not actually doing anything because you're maneuvering
- 2:43:10your body and your
- 2:43:10SPEAKER_03: weapon in a way to kind of just make them glancing blows.
- 2:43:15SPEAKER_03: Or stopping them right before they hit you.
- 2:43:19SPEAKER_01: But her hits, I guess, mean that she's improving in her technique.
- 2:43:22SPEAKER_03: She's gaining confidence in it, yes.
- 2:43:25SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:43:27Like where she's never really used it before,
- 2:43:29now she's like,
- 2:43:31okay,
- 2:43:31I can actually do this.
- 2:43:32SPEAKER_01: Is she doing stuff maybe one-handed now?
- 2:43:35SPEAKER_01: Because she said she was doing it like two-handed because she's nervous.
- 2:43:38SPEAKER_03: Well, that's what we were just going to ask.
- 2:43:39Ace,
- 2:43:41as you're training throughout this session,
- 2:43:43are you going to try to do one-handed with it?
- 2:43:45SPEAKER_03: Sure.
- 2:43:47SPEAKER_03: Sure.
- 2:43:49SPEAKER_03: Go ahead and roll another attack.
- 2:43:54SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 2:43:58SPEAKER_01: Not as good.
- 2:43:59SPEAKER_01: That still hits just barely, but it hits.
- 2:44:04SPEAKER_03: Yeah,
- 2:44:04SPEAKER_03: so you also start getting confidence and gaining your fighting style,
- 2:44:10SPEAKER_03: although very amateur-esque because you're not used to a weapon.
- 2:44:17SPEAKER_03: You're hitting, you're doing the
- 2:44:19SPEAKER_03: side strikes and you're doing downward strikes.
- 2:44:22SPEAKER_03: You're bringing the back of the hammer up, the back of the wardrum up.
- 2:44:28You're flipping around and using the butt end of it like a
- 2:44:32staff to smack and
- 2:44:35SPEAKER_03: follow up with another main strike of the hammerhead.
- 2:44:40SPEAKER_03: So you're doing pretty good.
- 2:44:44SPEAKER_03: You're getting the movement down with it.
- 2:44:52SPEAKER_00: Huzzah.
- 2:44:55SPEAKER_03: What were you going to give her?
- 2:44:57SPEAKER_01: I was just going to say that I was going to show her some,
- 2:44:59SPEAKER_01: like,
- 2:45:00SPEAKER_01: axe techniques to maybe apply with the war drum.
- 2:45:04Like,
- 2:45:05maybe,
- 2:45:05like,
- 2:45:05two-handed swing moves that she could maybe incorporate.
- 2:45:09SPEAKER_03: Yeah,
- 2:45:10SPEAKER_03: you could start working on weapon forms,
- 2:45:13SPEAKER_03: katas,
- 2:45:14SPEAKER_03: and showing her movements and whatnot instead of just straight sparring.
- 2:45:19SPEAKER_03: After she hit you a couple times,
- 2:45:20SPEAKER_03: you see that,
- 2:45:21SPEAKER_03: you know,
- 2:45:21SPEAKER_03: she can actually wield it against somebody.
- 2:45:23SPEAKER_03: Now you're going to teach her, like, formal sword forms.
- 2:45:27SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 2:45:28SPEAKER_03: Formal weapon forms.
- 2:45:30SPEAKER_00: Like fencing, but for axes.
- 2:45:32SPEAKER_00: There you go.
- 2:45:33SPEAKER_03: In your case, it would be a warhammer.
- 2:45:37SPEAKER_03: but Action and Warhammer are very similar fighting styles.
- 2:45:45SPEAKER_03: So you guys spend some time doing that.
- 2:45:51SPEAKER_03: I'd say between the sparring,
- 2:45:53SPEAKER_03: one-handed,
- 2:45:53SPEAKER_03: two-handed,
- 2:45:54SPEAKER_03: and the sword forms,
- 2:45:55SPEAKER_03: it'd be about an hour.
- 2:45:55SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:46:01With my expertise,
- 2:46:02my arcana is hella high,
- 2:46:03so I figured I could probably help you.
- 2:46:06I appreciate it because I feel like I'm getting it,
- 2:46:10but then the formula escapes me at the end.
- 2:46:14SPEAKER_01: And then I feel like I fudge it a little bit.
- 2:46:19SPEAKER_03: Ace, unfortunately, you don't know a lot about spell formulas.
- 2:46:23SPEAKER_00: Formulas.
- 2:46:27SPEAKER_00: But the feeling.
- 2:46:28SPEAKER_03: You know the feeling.
- 2:46:30SPEAKER_03: You don't know the formulas.
- 2:46:31SPEAKER_03: And Dragon's Breath is not a spell that you're familiar with.
- 2:46:35SPEAKER_03: So you can't use your Arcana check for it.
- 2:46:39SPEAKER_03: You can, however, give him advantage on his.
- 2:46:42SPEAKER_00: We'll do that.
- 2:46:43SPEAKER_00: Can I?
- 2:46:44SPEAKER_03: You can help him.
- 2:46:46SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 2:46:48SPEAKER_00: We'll do that.
- 2:46:49SPEAKER_03: So Malachi, she inspires you.
- 2:46:50SPEAKER_03: So you have an inspiration die to use for the next 10 minutes.
- 2:46:53SPEAKER_03: And then she takes the help action when you go to make a Dragon's Breath.
- 2:46:56SPEAKER_03: So go ahead and make your Arcana check with advantage.
- 2:47:00SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:47:01SPEAKER_03: And add the Bardic D6.
- 2:47:02SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:47:04SPEAKER_01: So, rolling with advantage.
- 2:47:09SPEAKER_01: 26.
- 2:47:10SPEAKER_03: Okay, add the bardic d6.
- 2:47:13SPEAKER_01: Adding a bardic d6.
- 2:47:15SPEAKER_01: That's a 127.
- 2:47:15SPEAKER_00: Oh, God.
- 2:47:18SPEAKER_01: Son of a bitch.
- 2:47:22SPEAKER_03: You're almost there.
- 2:47:28SPEAKER_03: You're so close, it tickles.
- 2:47:30SPEAKER_01: You know what?
- 2:47:31SPEAKER_01: Can I...
- 2:47:34SPEAKER_01: Can I luck it?
- 2:47:35SPEAKER_00: Can you luck my d6?
- 2:47:38SPEAKER_01: Well, I would lose the d6, though, then, right?
- 2:47:41SPEAKER_00: Nah.
- 2:47:41SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 2:47:43SPEAKER_00: Oh.
- 2:47:44SPEAKER_01: I would?
- 2:47:45SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 2:47:46SPEAKER_03: You can only use luck on d20 rolls.
- 2:47:49SPEAKER_03: So you would not be able to re-roll d6.
- 2:47:51It would still apply to whatever you roll,
- 2:47:53but you don't roll luck at advantage.
- 2:47:56SPEAKER_03: You just do another d20 roll and hope you get a 20.
- 2:48:02SPEAKER_01: But then I would have to use that roll, right?
- 2:48:04SPEAKER_03: No, luck you can choose.
- 2:48:06SPEAKER_01: Okay, so then let me just shoot for the moon here.
- 2:48:09SPEAKER_03: Alright, go ahead.
- 2:48:10SPEAKER_03: It's just an additional arcana check.
- 2:48:13SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:48:16SPEAKER_01: Wait, I didn't mark off a long rest before, so let me do that real quick.
- 2:48:20SPEAKER_01: And then... So now, I've used one luck.
- 2:48:25SPEAKER_01: And... Give it a go!
- 2:48:29SPEAKER_01: Nope.
- 2:48:30SPEAKER_01: That's one...
- 2:48:35SPEAKER_01: So, yeah.
- 2:48:37SPEAKER_01: Well, I wouldn't want to use that rule.
- 2:48:39SPEAKER_01: I guess I would just.
- 2:48:40SPEAKER_01: Well, I mean, again, we're just traveling.
- 2:48:42SPEAKER_01: So why the fuck not?
- 2:48:43SPEAKER_03: You can keep trying to luck.
- 2:48:46SPEAKER_03: You need to roll a 20 is basically.
- 2:48:49SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:48:51SPEAKER_01: Give it to me.
- 2:48:52SPEAKER_01: Come on.
- 2:48:52SPEAKER_01: 21.
- 2:48:55SPEAKER_01: One more.
- 2:48:56SPEAKER_00: Yeah, let's go one more.
- 2:49:02SPEAKER_00: Can we just try the whole process once more?
- 2:49:06SPEAKER_00: Have it be like a two thing where...
- 2:49:09SPEAKER_00: I think it's gotta be like,
- 2:49:10SPEAKER_00: that's a one a day thing,
- 2:49:11SPEAKER_00: right?
- 2:49:12SPEAKER_03: No, you could try it again.
- 2:49:13SPEAKER_00: Honestly, you've tried it more than once per day previously.
- 2:49:17SPEAKER_00: Okay, so then, sorry, what am I doing now?
- 2:49:21SPEAKER_03: You could try an arcana check again,
- 2:49:23SPEAKER_03: she can give you another,
- 2:49:24she can spend another one of her bardic inspirations and you
- 2:49:27can try again.
- 2:49:30another advantage and bardicans go ahead and roll arcana with
- 2:49:33advantage and add d6
- 2:49:34all right let's try it come on shelly another 26 go ahead and
- 2:49:43roll your d6 just get
- 2:49:46SPEAKER_00: higher than a two two or higher oh a six yay
- 2:49:53SPEAKER_03: This time,
- 2:49:54SPEAKER_03: instead of it being a three-foot extended in front of your mouth,
- 2:50:00SPEAKER_03: it's about ten feet extended in front of your mouth.
- 2:50:04SPEAKER_01: Okay, well, that would hit somebody in front of me, at least.
- 2:50:07SPEAKER_03: But it's not the full spell.
- 2:50:10SPEAKER_01: Goddammit.
- 2:50:12SPEAKER_03: The full spell's a fifteen-foot cone.
- 2:50:14SPEAKER_00: It's pretty damn close.
- 2:50:16SPEAKER_00: Celebratory.
- 2:50:18SPEAKER_03: You made progress.
- 2:50:19SPEAKER_01: I appreciate it.
- 2:50:20SPEAKER_01: I give, you know,
- 2:50:22SPEAKER_01: If Ace is going for a high five of some sort, I would return that.
- 2:50:26SPEAKER_03: You actually made good progress because of her inspiration.
- 2:50:30SPEAKER_03: You skipped two steps instead of one.
- 2:50:34SPEAKER_03: Yay!
- 2:50:35SPEAKER_03: It's slightly easier.
- 2:50:42SPEAKER_01: What do I need to do now?
- 2:50:44SPEAKER_01: Just keep doing the same thing, yep.
- 2:50:49SPEAKER_00: Just keep rolling high and knocking down.
- 2:50:51SPEAKER_03: But you cannot make any more progress today.
- 2:50:54SPEAKER_02: No, no, no, no.
- 2:50:56SPEAKER_03: You are exhausted.
- 2:50:56SPEAKER_02: I'm feeling good.
- 2:50:57SPEAKER_02: I am feeling good.
- 2:50:59SPEAKER_02: No, you're not.
- 2:50:59SPEAKER_03: You're exhausted.
- 2:51:02SPEAKER_03: Not the condition exhausted,
- 2:51:03but you're just trying to channel this much magic energy is not
- 2:51:09an easy task.
- 2:51:09SPEAKER_03: No.
- 2:51:10This is like,
- 2:51:11you know,
- 2:51:12working out until you can't move your arms anymore.
- 2:51:14SPEAKER_01: You feel good that you got there, but yes, you're dead to the world.
- 2:51:19SPEAKER_00: Been there, done that.
- 2:51:21SPEAKER_03: Literally.
- 2:51:24SPEAKER_03: Yes, yes, you have.
- 2:51:26SPEAKER_03: Twice, actually.
- 2:51:27SPEAKER_03: Once with strength, once with dex.
- 2:51:29When you were doing that,
- 2:51:30I was hearing the push it to the limit montage music right
- 2:51:35there.
- 2:51:38SPEAKER_03: Alright.
- 2:51:39SPEAKER_03: While they are doing that, Penn, you're just doing your project.
- 2:51:46SPEAKER_03: Um...
- 2:51:49SPEAKER_03: Dionys, what are you doing?
- 2:51:52SPEAKER_00: I was just cheering Malachi on.
- 2:52:01SPEAKER_03: Penn, go ahead and roll... Oh, what do we use?
- 2:52:06SPEAKER_03: Dexterity check?
- 2:52:07SPEAKER_03: I forget what we used for your engravers.
- 2:52:10SPEAKER_01: Use either Dexterity or Slight Ending.
- 2:52:14SPEAKER_01: Let's just call it dexterity, but with your proficiency bonus.
- 2:52:28SPEAKER_03: You're making some decent progress on your engraving.
- 2:52:31SPEAKER_03: You're almost done.
- 2:52:35SPEAKER_03: Maybe another day or day and a half, depending on how well you roll.
- 2:52:45SPEAKER_03: Does anyone have anything else they would like to do on this day?
- 2:52:48SPEAKER_03: It is a clear, calm day as you are moving down the river.
- 2:52:51SPEAKER_02: Go out and enjoy the sun.
- 2:52:57SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:52:58SPEAKER_01: Can I join Dayonis and do that?
- 2:53:00Because,
- 2:53:00again,
- 2:53:01I'm exhausted at this point,
- 2:53:02so I just want to lounge out.
- 2:53:04SPEAKER_03: Dayonis, what did you say you were going to do?
- 2:53:10SPEAKER_00: Just go out on top and enjoy the sun.
- 2:53:13SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:53:14SPEAKER_00: did spend most of the day in a dungeon so you know better than C. Okay.
- 2:53:27SPEAKER_03: Is anyone doing anything else in particular?
- 2:53:35SPEAKER_00: Hey Ace?
- 2:53:37SPEAKER_00: Yes?
- 2:53:40SPEAKER_01: Do you think maybe you can teach me how to surf like you did before?
- 2:53:45SPEAKER_03: Oh, no.
- 2:53:48SPEAKER_00: Does... I mean... Sure?
- 2:53:52SPEAKER_00: Well, I mean... I'll need some help, though.
- 2:53:59It didn't look like you did anything really magical that I've
- 2:54:02seen on digital.
- 2:54:05SPEAKER_00: No, but I do have a lot of experience in waters.
- 2:54:12SPEAKER_00: And you're heavy, so we might need some help.
- 2:54:19SPEAKER_03: I just need a bigger piece of wood.
- 2:54:24SPEAKER_00: And a longer piece of rope.
- 2:54:31SPEAKER_00: We can go searching for that on the ship.
- 2:54:35SPEAKER_01: I'm going to go look for a big piece of wood, I guess.
- 2:54:43The bosons you were helping yesterday give you a nicely sized
- 2:54:55piece of wood.
- 2:54:56SPEAKER_03: Actually, three.
- 2:54:57SPEAKER_03: They're long and narrow,
- 2:55:00so all three of them together would probably make a pretty good
- 2:55:05surf raft.
- 2:55:08SPEAKER_00: Do we have...
- 2:55:09ropes that's more like 70 feet because i think 50 was like
- 2:55:12slightly too short last
- 2:55:14time i mean they have rope on the ship they have like hundreds
- 2:55:19of feet of rope on
- 2:55:20the ship well yeah but i can't just go chopping up ropes
- 2:55:24willy-nilly no they have
- 2:55:27spare rope like to repair when they have to repair something
- 2:55:30okay the ship doesn't
- 2:55:32SPEAKER_03: have sails it's magically powered
- 2:55:37SPEAKER_03: Is the anchor of the ship my rope or chain?
- 2:55:43SPEAKER_03: You don't see the anchor of the ship.
- 2:55:47SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 2:55:49SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 2:55:50SPEAKER_00: Well, we shall grab some more then.
- 2:55:53SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:55:54SPEAKER_00: I will secure one end very tightly to the side rails of the said ship.
- 2:56:02SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:56:04SPEAKER_00: And the other around Penn's waist.
- 2:56:06SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:56:09SPEAKER_01: So what you're going to do is... You jump and put it underneath my feet?
- 2:56:19SPEAKER_00: Yes.
- 2:56:20But you're going to need to keep your strength towards the back
- 2:56:24or it's just going
- 2:56:24SPEAKER_00: to slide out from under you.
- 2:56:27SPEAKER_00: Good opportunity to practice dexterity.
- 2:56:33SPEAKER_03: Good.
- 2:56:34could I climb down the side of the ship before I jump or just
- 2:56:38jump from here?
- 2:56:41Well,
- 2:56:42since you've never done it before,
- 2:56:43climbing may be the better option if you can.
- 2:56:46SPEAKER_00: You just want to make sure that you get it under your feet and,
- 2:56:50SPEAKER_00: like I said,
- 2:56:51SPEAKER_00: hold the strength toward the back.
- 2:56:54SPEAKER_01: Can I hear what's going on?
- 2:56:59SPEAKER_03: Um... Right.
- 2:57:01SPEAKER_01: I'm going to...
- 2:57:03SPEAKER_03: Yeah, you can hear.
- 2:57:04SPEAKER_03: Everyone can really hear.
- 2:57:06SPEAKER_03: Whoever's on the deck can hear what's happening right now, yes.
- 2:57:08SPEAKER_01: Because then I would go over and be like, what are you guys doing?
- 2:57:14SPEAKER_03: I'm going to attempt to,
- 2:57:19SPEAKER_03: I guess,
- 2:57:22one-handedly because I'm going to hold the boards and climb
- 2:57:26down the side of the
- 2:57:27SPEAKER_01: ship.
- 2:57:29SPEAKER_01: To attempt to do what?
- 2:57:33SPEAKER_01: I'm going to go surfing.
- 2:57:34SPEAKER_01: This is what it's called.
- 2:57:36SPEAKER_03: I don't know what Ace did.
- 2:57:38SPEAKER_03: I'm just bored to me.
- 2:57:42SPEAKER_01: That's not this rope.
- 2:57:45SPEAKER_01: And I look at the rope.
- 2:57:46SPEAKER_01: I want to do it.
- 2:57:48I look at the rope and then I look at Ace and I say,
- 2:57:52and you're helping him do this?
- 2:57:55SPEAKER_00: Sure.
- 2:57:55SPEAKER_00: He can do it.
- 2:57:57SPEAKER_00: It's core strength and balance and not drowning.
- 2:58:05SPEAKER_01: Are you good in the water, Pen?
- 2:58:10SPEAKER_01: I can wild shave, so yeah.
- 2:58:15SPEAKER_01: I know a couple sea creatures.
- 2:58:19SPEAKER_01: I mean, I just, and I look back at Ace.
- 2:58:22SPEAKER_01: She's basically a fish.
- 2:58:24SPEAKER_01: And when she went in the water before, yeah, she did it very skillfully.
- 2:58:28SPEAKER_01: I'm not a fish.
- 2:58:31SPEAKER_01: We are not fish.
- 2:58:34SPEAKER_01: But it looked funny.
- 2:58:35SPEAKER_03: And I want to do it.
- 2:58:37SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:58:39SPEAKER_01: Do you want help or are you guys okay?
- 2:58:44SPEAKER_03: Help couldn't hurt.
- 2:58:46SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 2:58:47I mean,
- 2:58:48I'm sure help lowering me down would be beneficial if it's the
- 2:58:51case I swim.
- 2:58:52SPEAKER_01: I mean, in any way to lessen the potential injury, why the hell not?
- 2:59:03SPEAKER_03: How are we getting Penn to the water?
- 2:59:06SPEAKER_00: I guess we're both going to hold the rope and just help lower him slowly.
- 2:59:12SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 2:59:15SPEAKER_03: So he's going to one-handed rappel down the side of the ship.
- 2:59:19SPEAKER_02: And we're going to hold the rope as we lower him down.
- 2:59:29SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 2:59:30SPEAKER_03: Malakai and Ace, each of you make a strength check.
- 2:59:36SPEAKER_03: Pen, I need you to make an athletics check.
- 2:59:44SPEAKER_01: This is a straight strength check?
- 2:59:46SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 2:59:47SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:59:51SPEAKER_01: Ah, not great.
- 2:59:51SPEAKER_01: 12.
- 2:59:52SPEAKER_01: I got a 9.
- 3:00:04SPEAKER_00: 18.
- 3:00:04SPEAKER_00: Nice.
- 3:00:07SPEAKER_00: I've done this before.
- 3:00:08SPEAKER_03: It's not the smoothest process.
- 3:00:12There are a couple times that Ace especially you feel the rope
- 3:00:17jerk because Penn is
- 3:00:20losing his footing as he's trying to rappel down and hold on to
- 3:00:24his rapidly
- 3:00:26SPEAKER_03: constructed wooden surf raft.
- 3:00:32SPEAKER_03: When the rope jerks,
- 3:00:32SPEAKER_03: Malachi,
- 3:00:33SPEAKER_03: you kind of try to stabilize it a little bit,
- 3:00:35SPEAKER_03: but your footing is slipping a little bit every time it happens.
- 3:00:40SPEAKER_03: Thankfully, Penn makes it down to the water without much incident.
- 3:00:53SPEAKER_03: What are you doing?
- 3:00:53SPEAKER_01: So now I'm going to attempt to...
- 3:01:01SPEAKER_01: Like, I don't know, scroll the wood in front of me and jump on it?
- 3:01:10SPEAKER_03: Uh, jump on it how Ace told you to?
- 3:01:15SPEAKER_00: I'm trying to yell in the deck as well, in case you forgot.
- 3:01:18SPEAKER_03: With me, when I land, I'm gonna lean backwards.
- 3:01:24SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 3:01:27SPEAKER_03: Make an acrobatics check?
- 3:01:33go back i'm gonna shout down to 10 listen to the fish oh she
- 3:01:39has instructions
- 3:01:43SPEAKER_03: that's a five okay make a dexterity saving through well
- 3:01:59SPEAKER_03: The first time,
- 3:02:01SPEAKER_03: you completely...
- 3:02:03SPEAKER_03: The board gets ripped out from under you,
- 3:02:05but you catch it with your hand as it shoots up in front of you
- 3:02:07before it flies
- 3:02:08SPEAKER_03: off.
- 3:02:09SPEAKER_03: It stings your hand a little bit, but not enough to do damage.
- 3:02:12And you kind of,
- 3:02:14like,
- 3:02:14stabilize yourself a little bit so you're not,
- 3:02:17like,
- 3:02:17underwater.
- 3:02:18You're kind of just bobbing on the water alongside the ship as
- 3:02:21it's moving.
- 3:02:27SPEAKER_03: You can try again.
- 3:02:28SPEAKER_03: attempt to try to stand up.
- 3:02:31SPEAKER_03: You're not in shallow water, so you can't really stand up.
- 3:02:35Like,
- 3:02:35is there enough resistance on the water that I could just,
- 3:02:39like,
- 3:02:40try to see it?
- 3:02:42SPEAKER_03: Nah,
- 3:02:42SPEAKER_03: the ship's not moving that fast,
- 3:02:45SPEAKER_03: and you're on the side of it,
- 3:02:46SPEAKER_03: so that wouldn't bode well for you.
- 3:02:50SPEAKER_03: Alright, I'm going to attempt to get on this piece of wood again.
- 3:02:56SPEAKER_03: Okay, make another acrobatics check.
- 3:03:04SPEAKER_03: Well,
- 3:03:04you seems like failure is the best teacher because you
- 3:03:07successfully get on the
- 3:03:08SPEAKER_03: board this time.
- 3:03:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I'm doing it.
- 3:03:20SPEAKER_01: Surf and Dragonborn.
- 3:03:21SPEAKER_01: Well, that wasn't so hard, eh?
- 3:03:24SPEAKER_01: Thanks.
- 3:03:25SPEAKER_01: This is actually really fun.
- 3:03:29SPEAKER_00: Heck yeah, it is.
- 3:03:30SPEAKER_03: Make a dexterity saving throw.
- 3:03:31SPEAKER_03: Oh, God.
- 3:03:41SPEAKER_03: 12.
- 3:03:41Like,
- 3:03:41you get a little wobbly,
- 3:03:43but you adjust and correct and feel it out.
- 3:03:46SPEAKER_03: It takes you a second.
- 3:03:48SPEAKER_03: There's a couple times where Ace and Malachi,
- 3:03:51SPEAKER_03: you both think he's going to fall over,
- 3:03:54SPEAKER_03: but he doesn't.
- 3:03:54SPEAKER_03: He adjusts himself and gets corrected and
- 3:03:58SPEAKER_03: continues on going for the time being.
- 3:04:02SPEAKER_00: Surf, surf, surf.
- 3:04:03SPEAKER_00: Surfing Dragonborn.
- 3:04:05SPEAKER_01: Hey, anybody else want to try this?
- 3:04:11SPEAKER_01: It's actually, you know.
- 3:04:17SPEAKER_00: Shouldn't say things like that.
- 3:04:18SPEAKER_00: It tempts me to push Malakai overboard.
- 3:04:21SPEAKER_00: Wait, what?
- 3:04:23SPEAKER_00: Nothing.
- 3:04:25SPEAKER_01: Well, actually, I wrote first.
- 3:04:28SPEAKER_03: Uh, Penn, make one final, uh, dexterity saving throw.
- 3:04:33SPEAKER_00: I wish to inspire him with my song written for him.
- 3:04:38SPEAKER_03: I think he's too far away for bardic inspiration.
- 3:04:41SPEAKER_00: Are you sure?
- 3:04:42SPEAKER_00: What if I sing really loudly?
- 3:04:44SPEAKER_03: I'm pretty sure he has to be within 30 feet.
- 3:04:47SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's a six.
- 3:04:54SPEAKER_01: Damn it.
- 3:04:55SPEAKER_03: Oh, no.
- 3:04:56SPEAKER_03: Um...
- 3:04:58SPEAKER_03: So you are perfectly balanced on the board.
- 3:05:01What you don't expect is a huge wave coming towards you from
- 3:05:05the wake of the ship.
- 3:05:07SPEAKER_03: And you lose your footing and get knocked off.
- 3:05:11SPEAKER_03: You catch the board again, but you're now just in the water.
- 3:05:20SPEAKER_03: You almost get pulled overboard.
- 3:05:23SPEAKER_01: Alright, alright.
- 3:05:27SPEAKER_01: Pull me back up.
- 3:05:30SPEAKER_00: We'll help pull him.
- 3:05:32SPEAKER_03: I need strength checks from both of you.
- 3:05:35SPEAKER_03: Alright.
- 3:05:36SPEAKER_03: And Penn, I need an athletics check.
- 3:05:38SPEAKER_00: I'm on the other side of the house.
- 3:05:40SPEAKER_00: Would you roll it for me?
- 3:05:41SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I can roll it for you.
- 3:05:42SPEAKER_00: Thank you.
- 3:05:44SPEAKER_00: Oh, you guys are probably fine.
- 3:05:48SPEAKER_00: I say that like I'm in a mansion.
- 3:05:50SPEAKER_00: I just don't want to run.
- 3:05:51SPEAKER_03: Well... Ace, you rolled a six.
- 3:05:54SPEAKER_03: But that's okay.
- 3:05:58SPEAKER_01: It's like the rope slips out of her hand.
- 3:06:01SPEAKER_03: So this time,
- 3:06:02SPEAKER_03: Malachi,
- 3:06:03you like do the full double foot on the banister brace with the
- 3:06:08rope and you're
- 3:06:08SPEAKER_03: like,
- 3:06:08SPEAKER_03: I got you,
- 3:06:09SPEAKER_03: Penn.
- 3:06:11um ace on the other side she sees that tries to do the same
- 3:06:15thing but as pen tugs
- 3:06:17on the rope to get up uh ace you lose your footing and like
- 3:06:21slip forward a little
- 3:06:22bit and have to stand up and like really pull back to get your
- 3:06:26footing you don't
- 3:06:27hit the banister or anything but nice it's definitely a
- 3:06:31struggle as pen's pulling
- 3:06:32SPEAKER_01: up to climb up oh and what have you been eating
- 3:06:40SPEAKER_01: Deco?
- 3:06:43SPEAKER_01: How many metric tons?
- 3:06:49SPEAKER_01: You weigh almost as much as the bag of holding.
- 3:06:52SPEAKER_03: Bag of holding only weighs 15 pounds.
- 3:06:55SPEAKER_03: Oh, really?
- 3:06:56SPEAKER_03: Oh, never mind then.
- 3:06:58SPEAKER_01: You weigh like six bags of holding.
- 3:07:00SPEAKER_00: That's still not that much for a dragonborn.
- 3:07:08SPEAKER_03: 300 pounds is he?
- 3:07:10SPEAKER_03: 6 times 15?
- 3:07:10SPEAKER_01: Oh, I thought you said 50, I'm sorry.
- 3:07:13SPEAKER_03: No.
- 3:07:16SPEAKER_03: I apologize, I misguided.
- 3:07:18SPEAKER_03: I am covered in gems.
- 3:07:20SPEAKER_03: This is true, he is basically a solid gem.
- 3:07:25SPEAKER_01: Fair enough.
- 3:07:27SPEAKER_01: But he's dense.
- 3:07:31SPEAKER_01: Like his body is dense, okay.
- 3:07:32SPEAKER_00: The density of a dying star.
- 3:07:36SPEAKER_01: Oh my.
- 3:07:39SPEAKER_03: He gets up to the deck.
- 3:07:44Dionysus,
- 3:07:44Devlin,
- 3:07:45and Draco are all just kind of sunbathing behind you all.
- 3:07:51SPEAKER_03: The sun's starting to go down now, and it is dinner time again.
- 3:07:58SPEAKER_03: This time it's just crustaceans.
- 3:08:03SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 3:08:04SPEAKER_00: I am fine with it.
- 3:08:08SPEAKER_01: Of course you are.
- 3:08:15SPEAKER_03: If no one has anything else they would like to do,
- 3:08:17then this evening comes to a close rather uneventfully and
- 3:08:23rapidly as well.
- 3:08:27SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I'm just enjoying sleeping out under the stars.
- 3:08:31SPEAKER_01: Really peaceful.
- 3:08:38I'm just gonna continue to work on my projects again until I
- 3:08:41get tired and fall asleep.
- 3:08:44SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 3:08:46SPEAKER_03: Ace, anything specific at night before you go to bed?
- 3:08:48SPEAKER_00: I miss my dead friend.
- 3:08:58SPEAKER_03: Which one?
- 3:09:00SPEAKER_00: Friends!
- 3:09:02SPEAKER_00: Oh.
- 3:09:02SPEAKER_00: Oh, shit.
- 3:09:04SPEAKER_03: I heard friend.
- 3:09:06SPEAKER_03: Um...
- 3:09:08SPEAKER_03: Dayanis, are you doing anything?
- 3:09:13SPEAKER_00: No.
- 3:09:16SPEAKER_00: Chill out.
- 3:09:17SPEAKER_00: Maybe read some more about those mummies.
- 3:09:22SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 3:09:29SPEAKER_03: You guys all wake up.
- 3:09:30SPEAKER_03: Whoever needs to can hit long rest.
- 3:09:32SPEAKER_03: You guys all wake up.
- 3:09:35SPEAKER_03: Third day of travel.
- 3:09:38SPEAKER_03: Can somebody roll a... One second.
- 3:09:49SPEAKER_03: Somebody roll a d100 for me.
- 3:09:54SPEAKER_01: Oh, boy.
- 3:09:55SPEAKER_01: Who wants to do it?
- 3:09:56SPEAKER_01: Otherwise, I'll do it.
- 3:09:57SPEAKER_01: Can somebody roll it?
- 3:10:07SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 3:10:10SPEAKER_01: Oh, no, I didn't.

- 3:11:09SPEAKER_03: We should still get there at the end of the day today,
- 3:11:11SPEAKER_03: but I'd take shelter below deck if you don't want to get wet.
- 3:11:18SPEAKER_00: I don't care.
- 3:11:19SPEAKER_00: I can use a good pointing.
- 3:11:25SPEAKER_01: I'm going to head below deck.

- 3:12:03SPEAKER_03: Oh, okay.
- 3:12:06SPEAKER_01: I thought something else was gonna happen.
- 3:12:10SPEAKER_00: I'm going to turn this boat into a pleasure boat.
- 3:12:21SPEAKER_03: Listen, this isn't your pirate crew boat, okay?
- 3:12:26SPEAKER_03: You can do whatever you want when it's your own ship.
- 3:12:32That's why I'm just stripping down and going to bed and not
- 3:12:34causing any shenanigans.
- 3:12:35SPEAKER_00: It's not my ship to go raise chaos on.
- 3:12:41Some of the crew does eye you up a little bit as you do so,
- 3:12:45but otherwise leaves you alone.
- 3:12:48I'm just going to snarl my nose at them and be like,
- 3:12:51mind your own business.
- 3:12:53To be fair,
- 3:12:56it would be an excellent way to attack because the most
- 3:12:59important
- 3:13:00SPEAKER_00: Element is the element of surprise.
- 3:13:02SPEAKER_00: Attacking naked.
- 3:13:05SPEAKER_00: They wouldn't expect on the high seas.
- 3:13:10SPEAKER_03: Somebody roll a d10 for me.
- 3:13:17SPEAKER_03: That's not Malachi.
- 3:13:19SPEAKER_01: Oh, I'm not rolling.
- 3:13:20SPEAKER_01: I did it.
- 3:13:21SPEAKER_03: Oh, there it is.
- 3:13:25SPEAKER_03: Let's see.
- 3:13:27SPEAKER_03: A seven.
- 3:13:28SPEAKER_00: Nice.
- 3:13:33SPEAKER_00: I have no idea what's good or bad when he does this.
- 3:13:37SPEAKER_03: That is the point.
- 3:13:40SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 3:13:48SPEAKER_03: The wind starts picking up in a centralized area.
- 3:13:53SPEAKER_03: And you see off to the shores in front of you is this giant...
- 3:14:01creature made of just looks like it has some type of physical
- 3:14:07form but there's wind
- 3:14:08swirling around it can we all see this anyone who's above deck
- 3:14:16anyone who's on the
- 3:14:16deck yes oh no i'm i'm below deck at the moment so i'm not a
- 3:14:20concern does it look
- 3:14:22SPEAKER_00: like the pencils because that's similar to how they were described
- 3:14:27SPEAKER_03: Uh, no, this one looks more like a storm giant.
- 3:14:30SPEAKER_03: Like the one you've previously encountered.
- 3:14:33SPEAKER_00: Ah.
- 3:14:34SPEAKER_03: And talked your way out of.
- 3:14:35SPEAKER_00: True.
- 3:14:39SPEAKER_03: It's just standing there.
- 3:14:40SPEAKER_00: I will just wave at it.
- 3:14:46SPEAKER_03: It turns its head, its eyes glowing yellow looking at you.
- 3:14:54SPEAKER_03: But otherwise, no response.
- 3:14:58SPEAKER_03: Getting closer to it now.
- 3:15:08SPEAKER_03: Closer.
- 3:15:09SPEAKER_03: You're probably... It's within earshot now.
- 3:15:12SPEAKER_03: You could probably talk with it.
- 3:15:17SPEAKER_00: Good morning to it.
- 3:15:34speaking common so this is a beautiful storm ah i love when it
- 3:15:44rains i do take
- 3:15:58SPEAKER_03: Is there ever any trouble when it rains?
- 3:16:02SPEAKER_03: Occasionally.
- 3:16:06SPEAKER_03: I keep myself out of it.
- 3:16:11SPEAKER_03: I suggest that you do the same.
- 3:16:15SPEAKER_03: His eyes narrow as a lightning bolt.
- 3:16:18SPEAKER_03: Comes down next to, but not on the ship.
- 3:16:23SPEAKER_01: You know, we don't go look for trouble or trouble finds it.
- 3:16:30SPEAKER_03: Likely story.
- 3:16:32SPEAKER_03: You must be capable if you survived.
- 3:16:35SPEAKER_03: We can handle ourselves.
- 3:16:57SPEAKER_03: I have a favor to ask, then.
- 3:17:05SPEAKER_00: What is it?
- 3:17:05SPEAKER_00: I'm all ears.
- 3:17:08SPEAKER_03: There's an odd energy coming from that temple down there.
- 3:17:13SPEAKER_03: Points towards in the direction of the Dragon Temple.
- 3:17:20SPEAKER_00: Exactly where we were headed.
- 3:17:21SPEAKER_00: Oh.
- 3:17:22SPEAKER_03: Lovely.
- 3:17:23SPEAKER_03: Lovely.
- 3:17:30SPEAKER_03: I'll see if we can try to make your travels a little safer.
- 3:17:36SPEAKER_03: If you can eliminate that odd energy.
- 3:17:43SPEAKER_00: We'll take care of it.
- 3:17:48SPEAKER_03: He smiles.
- 3:17:52SPEAKER_03: Goes up.
- 3:17:52He goes back to staring up at the sky as the rain's falling
- 3:17:55down him and their ship
- 3:17:56SPEAKER_03: is passing him now.
- 3:18:09SPEAKER_03: Midday comes around.
- 3:18:11SPEAKER_03: Uh, the rain clears up.
- 3:18:19SPEAKER_03: And... The clouds are still in the sky, but it's not raining anymore.
- 3:18:26SPEAKER_03: There are bits of light peeking through from the sun.
- 3:18:31SPEAKER_00: Envoy of the sea.
- 3:18:33SPEAKER_03: That, um... It's that damp chill...
- 3:18:38SPEAKER_03: It's not cold, cold, but it's on borderline uncomfortable.
- 3:18:53SPEAKER_03: I'm going to take my hard armor and put it in the bag of holding.
- 3:19:00SPEAKER_03: And I'm going to pull out the studded leather.
- 3:19:04SPEAKER_03: And I'm going to put the studded leather.
- 3:19:06SPEAKER_03: Ah, you're swapping your armor.
- 3:19:13SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 3:19:13SPEAKER_03: Go ahead and do that on your sheet.
- 3:19:17SPEAKER_03: Already done.
- 3:19:27SPEAKER_03: Ah!
- 3:19:29SPEAKER_03: Land ho!
- 3:19:31SPEAKER_03: We can't get you much closer than this.
- 3:19:34SPEAKER_03: Be too close to the waterfall.
- 3:19:38SPEAKER_01: Waterfall?
- 3:19:40SPEAKER_01: There's waterfalls.
- 3:19:41SPEAKER_03: There's a waterfall up there.
- 3:19:47SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 3:19:47SPEAKER_01: I run over the direction he's pointing and look at the waterfall.
- 3:19:53You see the river comes down from the top of the mountain,
- 3:19:58in between the mountains.
- 3:20:01And it's a multi-level waterfall where water hits and then runs
- 3:20:06and then hits down
- 3:20:06SPEAKER_03: and runs and hits down and runs until it hits where you guys are.
- 3:20:10SPEAKER_03: And there's a bunch of jagged rocks and rapids there.
- 3:20:13SPEAKER_03: So the...
- 3:20:16the ship stops a little ways away from this so that they have
- 3:20:19room to kind of
- 3:20:20maneuver and turn around the temple is to the to the right of
- 3:20:27the waterfall right
- 3:20:29yes okay well it's to the right of the mountain uh it's at the
- 3:20:35base of the
- 3:20:36waterfall and you said the the entrance looks like a dragon's
- 3:20:40head that's what you
- 3:20:43SPEAKER_03: were told
- 3:20:47SPEAKER_02: Can we see it from where we are at the moment or no?
- 3:20:50SPEAKER_03: You can see it from where you are at the moment.
- 3:20:52SPEAKER_03: It's a little ways away.
- 3:20:53SPEAKER_03: It's like maybe an hour or two worth of walking.
- 3:20:57SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 3:20:58SPEAKER_03: But you have to disembark and walk there.
- 3:21:01SPEAKER_01: Shall we?
- 3:21:08SPEAKER_00: I want to touch the water.
- 3:21:11SPEAKER_03: You want to touch what?
- 3:21:12SPEAKER_00: I want to touch the water vault.
- 3:21:16SPEAKER_03: You're not close enough.
- 3:21:17SPEAKER_03: You have to walk up to it.
- 3:21:19SPEAKER_00: It's beautiful.
- 3:21:22SPEAKER_01: We're too far.
- 3:21:24SPEAKER_00: I'm going to go touch it.
- 3:21:26SPEAKER_01: I'm going to walk up to the waterfall.
- 3:21:31SPEAKER_03: It'll take you a little bit of time to get to the waterfall.
- 3:21:34SPEAKER_03: The waterfall's past the dragon temple.
- 3:21:38SPEAKER_03: Waterfall after.
- 3:21:45SPEAKER_01: To the temple.
- 3:21:48SPEAKER_03: The waterfall is past the dragon temple.
- 3:21:51SPEAKER_03: It'll take you about an hour or two to get to the dragon temple.
- 3:21:59SPEAKER_00: I agree, but I'm outing about it.
- 3:22:02SPEAKER_01: We can use the waterfall afterwards to walk around all the planets.
- 3:22:06SPEAKER_01: We had breakfast before we disembarked, right?
- 3:22:10SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:22:11SPEAKER_01: Okay, cool.
- 3:22:15SPEAKER_01: So we're rested, eaten, and we're ready to go.
- 3:22:22SPEAKER_01: Before we depart from the ship,
- 3:22:28SPEAKER_03: is there any diamonds on the ship that I can purchase from somebody?
- 3:22:36SPEAKER_03: No diamonds.
- 3:22:36SPEAKER_00: Thank you.
- 3:22:39SPEAKER_03: Unfortunately.
- 3:22:45SPEAKER_03: Alright, you all disembark from the ship.
- 3:22:46SPEAKER_03: How are you walking through the grasslands?
- 3:22:52SPEAKER_01: Uh... The ranger!
- 3:22:56SPEAKER_01: We go away!
- 3:22:57SPEAKER_00: I was gonna say, this is Dianus' forte.
- 3:23:01SPEAKER_03: Yeah, nature.
- 3:23:02SPEAKER_03: Yeah, there's more forest than grassland, but stealth.
- 3:23:11SPEAKER_00: Throw my hood up and start stealthily
- 3:23:16SPEAKER_00: cautiously walking through the high grass.
- 3:23:18SPEAKER_03: Okay, then specifically, Dionysus, you get to roll a d10 for me.
- 3:23:24SPEAKER_03: A three?
- 3:23:38SPEAKER_00: Beautiful, sorry.
- 3:23:41You see various creatures around,
- 3:23:44like various game animals and various actual creatures.
- 3:23:49SPEAKER_03: You see some shadows fly through the sky.
- 3:23:53SPEAKER_03: You hear the rustling of other creatures around in the tall grass,
- 3:23:56SPEAKER_03: but none of them seem to take notice.
- 3:23:58SPEAKER_03: You make your journey south safely.
- 3:24:02SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 3:24:07SPEAKER_03: As you approach, you see a giant dragon's mouth built in.
- 3:24:17SPEAKER_03: It looks like it's carved into the side of this mountain.
- 3:24:20SPEAKER_03: Teeth and everything.
- 3:24:23SPEAKER_03: On the outskirts, there are four dragon statues.
- 3:24:30SPEAKER_03: Or at least they look like dragon statues.
- 3:24:33SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 3:24:35SPEAKER_00: Let everybody else know.
- 3:24:45SPEAKER_03: The dragon statue that is closest to you all,
- 3:24:49SPEAKER_03: the northernmost one,
- 3:24:50SPEAKER_03: looks like a...
- 3:24:53SPEAKER_03: is more white in nature.
- 3:24:58SPEAKER_03: From a distance, you can see that it looks injured.
- 3:25:00SPEAKER_03: It's got scars up and down its arms and legs.
- 3:25:03It also looks to be missing a few fangs and is partially buried
- 3:25:07in the ground.
- 3:25:09SPEAKER_03: The one directly next to it looks like a black-scaled dragon.
- 3:25:15SPEAKER_03: It has scars across its chest and back,
- 3:25:18SPEAKER_03: and something is stained around its mouth,
- 3:25:20SPEAKER_03: and it is prone on the ground.
- 3:25:22SPEAKER_03: There is one...
- 3:25:27SPEAKER_03: Over here, that is half on land, half in the river.
- 3:25:32SPEAKER_03: It looks to be buried in the riverbank.
- 3:25:34There's no scars or markings of any kind that you can see from
- 3:25:37where you are.
- 3:25:38And there seems to be a metallic silver dragon looking statue
- 3:25:43embedded in the
- 3:25:44SPEAKER_03: mountain,
- 3:25:45SPEAKER_03: almost as if it's a part of the cliffside.
- 3:25:52SPEAKER_01: Interesting.
- 3:25:55SPEAKER_01: Do I feel anything?
- 3:25:57SPEAKER_01: any sort of connection to any of these statues?
- 3:25:59SPEAKER_03: Nope.
- 3:26:00SPEAKER_01: No?
- 3:26:01SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 3:26:03SPEAKER_01: These are, um, oddly positioned.
- 3:26:09SPEAKER_01: Like, these might have been actual dragons turned to his stone?
- 3:26:18SPEAKER_01: That white dragon statue, does it look familiar?
- 3:26:22SPEAKER_03: You're not close enough.
- 3:26:25SPEAKER_00: Alright, dragons...
- 3:26:26SPEAKER_00: Territorial?
- 3:26:29SPEAKER_03: From what you know of them, yes.
- 3:26:33SPEAKER_00: So why are so many of them in the same place?
- 3:26:41SPEAKER_01: I say we move a little bit closer but cautiously.
- 3:26:44SPEAKER_01: That white statue is giving me weird vibes.
- 3:26:55SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 3:26:57SPEAKER_03: So which one are you moving to first?
- 3:27:01SPEAKER_02: The white one.
- 3:27:03SPEAKER_03: So you notice that the statue itself is just a stone statue.
- 3:27:08SPEAKER_03: What's giving it the white look is there's a white aura coming off of it.
- 3:27:12SPEAKER_03: In the ground,
- 3:27:13SPEAKER_03: etched into the ground,
- 3:27:15SPEAKER_03: you're not sure how and how the etching is survived,
- 3:27:19SPEAKER_03: is a name.
- 3:27:22SPEAKER_03: Vice Logia.
- 3:27:25SPEAKER_02: Huh.
- 3:27:28SPEAKER_02: That's from Fairytale.
- 3:27:29SPEAKER_02: Nice.
- 3:27:37SPEAKER_03: That's the white one.
- 3:27:40SPEAKER_01: What about the other one?
- 3:27:42SPEAKER_01: Do you know what that means?
- 3:27:44SPEAKER_00: It's a name.
- 3:27:46SPEAKER_03: You go to the black one next to it and... Real quick.
- 3:27:51SPEAKER_01: Would I,
- 3:27:51SPEAKER_01: because I read that dragon book,
- 3:27:53SPEAKER_01: would I know anything about dragon names or anything along those lines?
- 3:27:58SPEAKER_03: Nothing that resonates here.
- 3:28:00SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 3:28:03SPEAKER_03: This one, also a normal statue that's giving off a black aura.
- 3:28:10SPEAKER_03: Its name, Skiadrum.
- 3:28:14SPEAKER_02: Hmm, okay.
- 3:28:22SPEAKER_03: Which one are you going to next?
- 3:28:24SPEAKER_00: Water dragon.
- 3:28:27SPEAKER_01: Water dragon, yeah.
- 3:28:29SPEAKER_03: You go over here.
- 3:28:30SPEAKER_03: You take a couple minutes to get over there.
- 3:28:33SPEAKER_03: Again, same thing.
- 3:28:34SPEAKER_03: Stone.
- 3:28:35SPEAKER_03: And the stone's not eroded by the water, by the way.
- 3:28:37SPEAKER_03: You can see it under the water.
- 3:28:39SPEAKER_03: It's still solid.
- 3:28:41SPEAKER_03: Nothing's growing on it.
- 3:28:42SPEAKER_03: There's no moss, nothing.
- 3:28:44SPEAKER_03: But it gives off a turquoise aura.
- 3:28:46SPEAKER_03: Etched in the ground is...
- 3:28:52grandine and the final metallic statue the final dragon uh you
- 3:29:06can barely make out
- 3:29:08SPEAKER_03: because it blends in with the cliff side so well um the only different
- 3:29:12SPEAKER_03: differentiating factor is the
- 3:29:16uh like the silver metallic iron-esque aura that it's giving
- 3:29:22off metallicana is
- 3:29:26etched into the ground in front of it am i getting anything
- 3:29:32from this nope other
- 3:29:38SPEAKER_03: than the fact that why would there be
- 3:29:42two chromatic dragons and two a gem dragon and a metallic
- 3:29:50dragon together this was
- 3:29:55either a battleground or a holy place otherwise chromatic
- 3:30:02dragons metallic dragons
- 3:30:03and gem dragons don't generally get along yeah what would bring
- 3:30:09all of these
- 3:30:10SPEAKER_02: different factions together
- 3:30:16I'm saying this out loud just kind of asking I don't maybe they
- 3:30:23didn't get brought
- 3:30:24here together maybe this is where they came to like Cryovain
- 3:30:36like when however they
- 3:30:37SPEAKER_01: got here this is in this temple is where they appeared
- 3:30:42SPEAKER_01: I point to the mouth of the Dragon Temple,
- 3:30:45SPEAKER_01: of the entrance to the Dragon Temple,
- 3:30:47SPEAKER_01: and I look at Penn.
- 3:30:48SPEAKER_01: Would that be large enough for your cryovane to fit through?
- 3:30:56SPEAKER_01: How big is the mouth?
- 3:30:59SPEAKER_03: It's gargantuan.
- 3:31:03SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 3:31:04However,
- 3:31:05what you know of cryovane,
- 3:31:06if cryovane was here,
- 3:31:07this area would be covered in snow.
- 3:31:12SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 3:31:13SPEAKER_03: but it is chilly.
- 3:31:17SPEAKER_03: Correct.
- 3:31:20SPEAKER_03: It's... The season has changed, so it is already rather chilly.
- 3:31:27SPEAKER_03: It's like fall weather.
- 3:31:29SPEAKER_03: You are further away from the mountaintop to the east,
- 3:31:32SPEAKER_03: so it is not as chilly as it would be had you gone east.
- 3:31:39SPEAKER_01: It might have.
- 3:31:40SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 3:31:43SPEAKER_01: Yeah, maybe there's something else inside of you.
- 3:31:47SPEAKER_01: Shall we?
- 3:31:48SPEAKER_01: Yeah, this is why we're here.
- 3:31:52And as we walk inside,
- 3:31:54I'm going to whisper to myself,
- 3:31:55may the divine dragon protect me.
- 3:32:03SPEAKER_03: All right.
- 3:32:05SPEAKER_03: That's not the right one.
- 3:32:07SPEAKER_03: That's the right one, right?
- 3:32:09SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 3:32:11let's uh get this set up we need draco and we need devlin and
- 3:32:25we need all of you yay
- 3:32:40SPEAKER_03: So, what is your order as you are entering the temple?
- 3:32:49SPEAKER_02: I mean, dungeon crawl mode.
- 3:32:52SPEAKER_03: Alright.
- 3:32:54SPEAKER_03: So you want Ace and Dianus up front?
- 3:32:58SPEAKER_03: Mm-hmm.
- 3:32:59SPEAKER_03: Okay.
- 3:33:02SPEAKER_03: Devlin will be in front of you, Penn, and you'll be with Draco then.
- 3:33:07SPEAKER_03: Could I not have Draco?
- 3:33:11SPEAKER_03: Uh, if you would like.
- 3:33:12SPEAKER_03: Why does it do that?
- 3:33:15SPEAKER_02: Oh no.
- 3:33:15SPEAKER_02: I'm not looking.
- 3:33:17SPEAKER_02: I am not looking.
- 3:33:17SPEAKER_03: That's fine, you can look.
- 3:33:19SPEAKER_03: You're about to see it in a second, so.
- 3:33:26SPEAKER_03: I just don't know why it does that, but okay, you're fine now.
- 3:33:29SPEAKER_03: Uh, as you guys enter, because it doesn't matter, um, let's do reveal...
- 3:33:46you are shown a chamber and there is another dragon here a
- 3:33:59dragon statue i should
- 3:34:00say as you enter the table chamber you feel a strange energy
- 3:34:06behind you a purple
- 3:34:08barrier forms trapping you inside a fish dragon stretch a fifth
- 3:34:13dragon statue

- 3:34:25draconic energy coming from this statue and it has the arm of
- 3:34:29another dragon in its
- 3:34:30mouth you also notice that it is missing an arm and a wing and
- 3:34:35there's a large
- 3:34:36SPEAKER_03: crown on its head you all hear a voice echo throughout this chamber
- 3:34:43SPEAKER_03: Choose a side and you shall end this eternal battle.
- 3:34:51SPEAKER_03: But the voice doesn't seem to come from anywhere.
- 3:34:56SPEAKER_00: Aside.
- 3:34:57SPEAKER_03: As that voice finished finishes speaking,
- 3:35:01torches light up around the chamber and the other side of this
- 3:35:05room is revealed.
- 3:35:12SPEAKER_02: Well.
- 3:35:15SPEAKER_03: There are six statues of various humanoids in the corner over here.
- 3:35:24SPEAKER_03: In front of these statues, there are two.
- 3:35:31Mage looking humanoids that seem to be injured with a much
- 3:35:34larger and stronger mage
- 3:35:36SPEAKER_03: standing in front of them,
- 3:35:37SPEAKER_03: who's standing outside of a throne area.
- 3:35:40SPEAKER_03: The throne looks to be a dragon's body with five heads.
- 3:35:48SPEAKER_01: A hydra of some sort.
- 3:35:50One of the mage pair is surrounded in fire and lightning and
- 3:35:53looks to be badly beaten.
- 3:35:55The other is surrounded in a purple aura and has an odd
- 3:35:59pressure emanating from him.
- 3:36:01He also looks beaten,
- 3:36:02but his injuries look to be slowly healing themselves.
- 3:36:09The mage surrounded in fire and lightning is down on one knee,
- 3:36:13tears streaming down his face.
- 3:36:19SPEAKER_03: glaring at the much larger ominous mage in front of them.
- 3:36:25SPEAKER_03: The larger ominous mage, yes, is wearing a thick dark cloak.
- 3:36:30There's a massive dark purple aura around him and the aura
- 3:36:34itself is giving off an
- 3:36:36SPEAKER_03: ominous energy and pressure.
- 3:36:39SPEAKER_03: Worse than most anything you have felt.
- 3:36:44SPEAKER_03: The two mages turn towards you all and yell, help us!
- 3:36:48SPEAKER_03: Help us defeat him.
- 3:36:49SPEAKER_03: If he escapes here, he will wreak havoc on the world.
- 3:36:53SPEAKER_03: They glance at you, then glare back at the mage cross from them.
- 3:36:56SPEAKER_03: The other mage laughs.
- 3:37:00SPEAKER_03: Mere mortals cannot save you.
- 3:37:04SPEAKER_03: And they cannot defeat me.
- 3:37:07SPEAKER_03: Except the inevitable.
- 3:37:09SPEAKER_03: He smirks, staring at you with glaring eyes.
- 3:37:17SPEAKER_01: How can we get through the force field to help you?
- 3:37:28SPEAKER_01: Can they hear us through the force field?
- 3:37:31SPEAKER_03: You're not sure.
- 3:37:32SPEAKER_03: You just know you were told to choose a side.
- 3:37:37I look back at the rest of the group and I say,
- 3:37:43don't trust the Chromatic Dragons.
- 3:37:53SPEAKER_03: I think we need to save those mages.
- 3:38:06SPEAKER_01: And that's the side that we picked.
- 3:38:07SPEAKER_01: So how do we get past this field to save them?
- 3:38:15SPEAKER_03: Well, are you talking out loud about saving the mages?
- 3:38:20Yeah,
- 3:38:20I was going to kind of shout out and be like,
- 3:38:22we're going to save the mages.
- 3:38:25SPEAKER_03: The barrier drops, and you can all enter this area.
- 3:38:30SPEAKER_03: But as you do, the barrier reforms trapping you on this side.
- 3:38:36SPEAKER_03: It'll be your death too, then.
- 3:38:39SPEAKER_03: I need everyone to roll the shift.
- 3:38:45SPEAKER_00: I want to know...
- 3:38:50SPEAKER_00: Wait, why are you specifically trapped in the barrier behind us?
- 3:38:59SPEAKER_03: Yes, a barrier formed behind you.
- 3:39:01SPEAKER_00: No, no, but Penn is on the other side.
- 3:39:03SPEAKER_00: Is that on purpose?
- 3:39:04SPEAKER_03: He shouldn't be.
- 3:39:05SPEAKER_00: Oh, okay.
- 3:39:06SPEAKER_00: There you go.
- 3:39:08SPEAKER_00: He's back.
