Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: Hello, friends from across the nation and around the world,
- 0:08Speaker 1: by Martin and you are listening to Dad's Bedtime Stories,
- 0:12Speaker 1: the podcast that takes listener ideas and turns them into
- 0:16Speaker 1: bedtime stories. Tonight we're jumping back into the Cards of
- 0:21Speaker 1: Power universe, a world where magic cards rule things. There's
- 0:26Speaker 1: a lot of episodes of it, so you can start here,
- 0:30Speaker 1: or you could always go back to episode one if
- 0:33Speaker 1: you want to hear the full thing, the full story,
- 0:35Speaker 1: or you could even check out Dad's Anytime Stories, my
- 0:40Speaker 1: other podcast where I am currently reading the first book,
- 0:45Speaker 1: the first finished book of Cards of Power, kind of
- 0:48Speaker 1: a polished version of the stories have done here. Tonight's
- 0:52Speaker 1: idea comes to us from one of my Patreon's sponsors, Walker.
- 0:57Speaker 1: I asked you guys for ideas for the Deity level
- 1:00Speaker 1: tournament opponents to face and that sort of thing, and
- 1:04Speaker 1: Walker commented on Patreon that he'd like to see a
- 1:09Speaker 1: camping themed person, specifically with a camping themed cat card.
- 1:18Speaker 1: And you know what, trying to make a cat with
- 1:22Speaker 1: a bunch of camping gear a dangerous opponent seemed like
- 1:27Speaker 1: a challenge that I wanted to accept. So that's exactly
- 1:31Speaker 1: what I've done. Today. Today's episode sets up the Deity
- 1:35Speaker 1: Level Tournament and some information about it. So if you
- 1:39Speaker 1: guys have ideas for people who are going to battle
- 1:42Speaker 1: in the Daity Level tournament magic cards from the Deity
- 1:45Speaker 1: Level Tournament, please let me know. The best way to
- 1:50Speaker 1: do that is on speak pipe or you can leave
- 1:52Speaker 1: me a voice message. Otherwise you can fill out the
- 1:56Speaker 1: Google form or send me an email at dad Bedtime
- 2:00Speaker 1: Stories at gmail dot com. But now, I, uh, I
- 2:05Speaker 1: say we get on with the story. Close your eyes,
- 2:10Speaker 1: get as comfy as you can in that bed, and
- 2:12Speaker 1: imagine yourself doing what the kid in the story does.
- 2:20Speaker 1: You wake up inside your Cards of Power spaceship. Sitting
- 2:26Speaker 1: in front of you on the wall is a calendar,
- 2:30Speaker 1: a calendar with a very important date circled, the date
- 2:35Speaker 1: of the Galactic Card Federation's Deity Level Tournament, the one
- 2:41Speaker 1: you'd been getting ready for for so long, And well
- 2:46Speaker 1: it turns out that sign ups start today. Magnus, you say,
- 2:53Speaker 1: we have to get going the Deity Level Tournament starting.
- 2:57Speaker 1: What it is, people are going to be pretty disappointed
- 3:03Speaker 1: when they have to face up against my might. Uh yeah,
- 3:10Speaker 1: hopefully we'll have to go tell acts to get us there. Oh,
- 3:15Speaker 1: what planet was it on anyways? You ask, I think
- 3:21Speaker 1: the invitation said it was on Cardopolis Prime, the capital
- 3:27Speaker 1: of the Galactic Card Federation. Oh right, You and Magnus
- 3:33Speaker 1: head down the hall of your spaceship. You turn left
- 3:38Speaker 1: and go straight to the command center or bridge, where
- 3:43Speaker 1: you find as your tech axe a Lottel commanding an
- 3:49Speaker 1: entire team of tech elves. The entire place looks completely different,
- 3:57Speaker 1: completely upgraded. What happened here? You ask, Oh, I have
- 4:06Speaker 1: been doing some upgrades with the help of your elves.
- 4:10Speaker 1: The ship is now quicker and more powerful than ever before.
- 4:15Speaker 1: These elves are a huge bonus. Ax says, uh, cool, Well,
- 4:23Speaker 1: we have to get going to Cardopolis Prime as quickly
- 4:27Speaker 1: as we can. Sign ups for the Deity level tournament
- 4:30Speaker 1: or today, You tell him, ow, got it? Setting course
- 4:36Speaker 1: right now, Ax begins to jump around from control panel
- 4:41Speaker 1: to control panel, pressing a whole bunch of different buttons,
- 4:45Speaker 1: before eventually standing at the pilot's station. The ship comes
- 4:50Speaker 1: to life with a rumble and slowly lifts up off
- 4:54Speaker 1: of the ground. You fly higher and higher and higher
- 5:00Speaker 1: up through the clouds, before pointing directly upwards and blasting
- 5:06Speaker 1: through the atmosphere and out into space. Activating star drive.
- 5:13Speaker 1: Acts announces and suddenly all of the little dots in
- 5:19Speaker 1: space transform into streaks of light as the ship blasts
- 5:25Speaker 1: forward at an incredible speed. After a short trip, the
- 5:32Speaker 1: ship comes to a complete stop. In front of you
- 5:37Speaker 1: is a large, beautiful earth like planet surrounded by five moons.
- 5:45Speaker 1: There are spaceships everywhere, almost a traffic jam going on.
- 5:52Speaker 1: A speaker on the front console engages welcome to Cardopolis Prime.
- 5:59Speaker 1: If you're for the Deity level tournament, please proceed to
- 6:04Speaker 1: Moon Base one for sign up coordinates transferring to your spaceship. Now,
- 6:13Speaker 1: I got it. Following the coordinates, Act says you slowly
- 6:20Speaker 1: get yourself in formation, following a small line of spaceships,
- 6:26Speaker 1: all heading towards the same moon. One by one, they
- 6:30Speaker 1: land in a large parking lot, with the one of
- 6:34Speaker 1: those guys wearing a colorful vest and those little laid
- 6:37Speaker 1: up wavy things in his hand directing you where to land.
- 6:44Speaker 1: The ship lands in a large open spot and the
- 6:47Speaker 1: back hatch opens up. All right, Acts, we'll see you soon.
- 6:52Speaker 1: Stay here. You head oued into the parking lot, and well,
- 6:58Speaker 1: you just sort of follow the lines of people who
- 7:01Speaker 1: look like they know where they're going most of the time.
- 7:05Speaker 1: That works out for you. You see that this particular
- 7:09Speaker 1: moon is set up with all kinds of battle stadiums
- 7:14Speaker 1: on almost every side of the parking lot is an
- 7:18Speaker 1: absolutely enormous stadium, just like the ones in the last
- 7:22Speaker 1: planet you were on. It's as if the entire moon
- 7:26Speaker 1: is set up for this tournament, and based on all
- 7:31Speaker 1: the people surrounding you, you're not the only one here
- 7:35Speaker 1: for it. There's all sorts of alien cardholders walking towards
- 7:40Speaker 1: the same line. One that looks like a floating jellyfish
- 7:45Speaker 1: sort of creature. There's a giant rock person, a slug
- 7:50Speaker 1: like alien wearing golden armor for some reason. A robot
- 7:55Speaker 1: that is carrying a glass brain. You wonder if the
- 7:59Speaker 1: brain is the cardholder or the robot. There are very
- 8:04Speaker 1: tall aliens and incredibly short aliens. In fact, there's one
- 8:09Speaker 1: that kind of looks like a mouse floating around on
- 8:12Speaker 1: a little eh like a little platform scooter or something
- 8:17Speaker 1: like that. You soon form into a line and wait
- 8:22Speaker 1: as it makes its way forward. The line leads you
- 8:26Speaker 1: through the doors of one of the biggest battle stadiums
- 8:30Speaker 1: in the area and into one of the biggest battle arenas,
- 8:36Speaker 1: where there's a whole bunch of different foldout tables set
- 8:40Speaker 1: up with people behind each one. As tables free up,
- 8:45Speaker 1: the people in the lines are escorted towards them. Soon
- 8:50Speaker 1: it's your turn, Table three. The person at the front
- 8:54Speaker 1: of the line orders and you head over there. Eh,
- 9:00Speaker 1: come to the Galactic Card Federations, and you will Deity
- 9:06Speaker 1: Level tournament. You will need to provide certain information. He
- 9:12Speaker 1: passes you a little page asking for your name, home region,
- 9:18Speaker 1: descriptions of your Deity level cards, emergency contacts, and a
- 9:25Speaker 1: waiver that seems to uh well, take any liability away
- 9:30Speaker 1: from the people running the tournament. If something terrible happens
- 9:33Speaker 1: to you, you fill out the paper as quickly as
- 9:36Speaker 1: you can and pass it back. Ah. Very good. Now,
- 9:42Speaker 1: since it's your first time here, I should probably explain
- 9:47Speaker 1: a few things. The tournament has two major parts. The
- 9:53Speaker 1: first part is the qualifying rounds. These rounds will be
- 10:00Speaker 1: one on one battles. You may pick a single card
- 10:05Speaker 1: in advance. I suggest picking your most powerful one, as
- 10:11Speaker 1: you cannot change cards in the future. You will be
- 10:15Speaker 1: set to battle against other participants. Winners will go on
- 10:21Speaker 1: to additional battles, and losers will be out of the tournament.
- 10:26Speaker 1: The number of rounds largely depends on the number of
- 10:30Speaker 1: people you see. We can only take so many in
- 10:34Speaker 1: the final tournament, and we need to whittle the numbers down.
- 10:40Speaker 1: The entire moon is covered in display screens where you
- 10:44Speaker 1: can search for your name and find the time, location,
- 10:49Speaker 1: and opponent you will be battling next. If you win
- 10:54Speaker 1: all of your qualifying rounds, you go on to the
- 10:59Speaker 1: main turn. It's a traditional tournament style where winners face
- 11:06Speaker 1: the winners and losers face the losers, that sort of thing.
- 11:12Speaker 1: If you get there, you will take place in a
- 11:16Speaker 1: three card battle. A coin will be flipped to see
- 11:21Speaker 1: who picks their card first, whereas the other person will
- 11:26Speaker 1: have the advantage of choosing their card based on what
- 11:30Speaker 1: the first person chooses. The winner of each round will
- 11:35Speaker 1: pick their next card first, giving the loser the advantage
- 11:40Speaker 1: for the next round, and so on in those rounds.
- 11:45Speaker 1: Winning two out of three battles means you move on.
- 11:49Speaker 1: But I'm probably getting ahead of myself. Where your cards
- 11:55Speaker 1: do look interesting? Being your first time at this tournament,
- 11:59Speaker 1: I highly doubt you'll even qualify. Now, go on and
- 12:05Speaker 1: check in a little while to see who you're battling first.
- 12:09Speaker 1: Boh and and of course take this. This is your
- 12:13Speaker 1: tournament I dcart. You'll need to scat it to get
- 12:17Speaker 1: into various places in the tournament, like your battles, for example,
- 12:22Speaker 1: or the complimentary hotel room we've booked for you. Don't worry.
- 12:28Speaker 1: It's fully compatible with your card core. You may absorb
- 12:32Speaker 1: it now. You focus on the card and it immediately
- 12:38Speaker 1: lights up a bright blue color and blasts into your chest.
- 12:44Speaker 1: H cool. It doesn't feel as powerful as your other cards,
- 12:48Speaker 1: but you can still tell it's there. You and Magnus
- 12:53Speaker 1: make your way out of the line, bent over to
- 12:56Speaker 1: one of the many computer terminals that are bread throughout
- 13:00Speaker 1: the place. The screen asks you to well present your
- 13:06Speaker 1: ID card, so you do. You reach into your card core,
- 13:11Speaker 1: activate the ID card, and it appears in front of you.
- 13:17Speaker 1: The computer scans, it, processes, and then displays a schedule.
- 13:23Speaker 1: Only your first battle is currently displayed, along with the
- 13:28Speaker 1: time and place, which is in ten minutes and in
- 13:34Speaker 1: one of the stadiums off to the side. Uh, Magnus,
- 13:39Speaker 1: I think we gotta get going. Ah, yeah, sounds good,
- 13:43Speaker 1: Magnus replies. You run out of the battle stadium into
- 13:49Speaker 1: the parking lot, searching around for Stadium three, which is
- 13:53Speaker 1: where the schedule said you had to go. You see
- 13:57Speaker 1: a sign for Stadium three in the distance and start
- 14:00Speaker 1: running towards it, across the parking lot and straight into
- 14:05Speaker 1: the stadium doors. This one isn't as busy as the others,
- 14:10Speaker 1: but there's still quite a few people. You run up
- 14:14Speaker 1: to the help desk. I'm here for my match, you say,
- 14:21Speaker 1: almost entirely out of breath. Excellent, please present your ID cod.
- 14:29Speaker 1: You once again summon your glowing blue ID card in
- 14:33Speaker 1: front of you. The lady picks up a little hand scanner,
- 14:38Speaker 1: scans the thing, and looks over at her computer. You're
- 14:42Speaker 1: set to battle in battle Arena two in oh five minutes.
- 14:49Speaker 1: You better get going. It's that way. You follow where
- 14:54Speaker 1: she's pointing. Run down the hall until you see a
- 14:58Speaker 1: large two hanging up up above an elevator. You and
- 15:03Speaker 1: Magnus run inside the elevator. The doors close and you
- 15:09Speaker 1: slowly move upward. When the door's open, you enter into
- 15:15Speaker 1: a gigantic battle arena one, just like on the last
- 15:20Speaker 1: battle planet you were on. The ground itself is made
- 15:25Speaker 1: of dirt and stone, and there's a little bit from
- 15:30Speaker 1: almost every biome you can imagine, snow, sand, water. That
- 15:38Speaker 1: sort of thing obviously set up to not give anyone
- 15:42Speaker 1: any particular advantage, and of course to create a more
- 15:47Speaker 1: natural place to do battle, one that mimics the wilds. Well,
- 15:54Speaker 1: are you the opponent? A man dressed in a sort
- 15:59Speaker 1: of referee uniform asks you, Uh, yeah, I'm here to
- 16:03Speaker 1: do battle. Excellent, Come on over here. Your opponents already
- 16:09Speaker 1: here and ready to go. Let me introduce you to Walker. Now,
- 16:18Speaker 1: I just want to go over a couple things for
- 16:20Speaker 1: this match here, just a few reminders. First of all,
- 16:26Speaker 1: you've both already declared your cards. I see on the
- 16:32Speaker 1: form here that you will be using a Deity level
- 16:38Speaker 1: fire dragon named Magnus. Is that right? You nod an agreement,
- 16:45Speaker 1: and Walker, it seems that you have chosen a deity
- 16:51Speaker 1: level cat card called Camper. Is that correct? Man, Yes,
- 16:59Speaker 1: that is correct, Walker responds. Beside him. Is a cat
- 17:06Speaker 1: a little larger than most cats and wearing a camping backpack.
- 17:14Speaker 1: Did he say deity level camping cat? How is that
- 17:20Speaker 1: possibly going to do battle? You say to yourself in
- 17:24Speaker 1: your head. But well, you try not to get over confident.
- 17:28Speaker 1: After all, anyone at this tournament is likely fairly powerful.
- 17:34Speaker 1: All right, well, card holders, you must stay in your
- 17:40Speaker 1: designated area. You can give orders, but you may not
- 17:45Speaker 1: use any other cards. The first person to blast their
- 17:50Speaker 1: opponent back to their card cores wins and will go
- 17:54Speaker 1: on to the next round. Many questions, You and Walker
- 18:00Speaker 1: both shake your heads. Good. Now go to your sides
- 18:05Speaker 1: of the battle arena, he orders you. Walk over to
- 18:10Speaker 1: your little designated circle. As soon as you step inside,
- 18:15Speaker 1: a sort of energy force field surrounds you, obviously designed
- 18:20Speaker 1: to protect you from the battle. It closes both underneath
- 18:24Speaker 1: your feet, above your head, and entirely around you. Walker
- 18:31Speaker 1: enters his and the referee presses a button on his watch.
- 18:37Speaker 1: He floats up in the air and is surrounded by
- 18:41Speaker 1: a bubble of energy himself. He floats back and away
- 18:47Speaker 1: from the battle, and then begins to speak. All right,
- 18:53Speaker 1: it's tag for your cards to step forward. I see
- 18:58Speaker 1: you've both already. He activated them, so they can step
- 19:04Speaker 1: into the arena. Now you look over at Magnus, who's
- 19:08Speaker 1: just standing beside the little protective bubble. Eh, don't worry.
- 19:14Speaker 1: I don't think a camping cat is gonna be much
- 19:18Speaker 1: of a problem, he says. Then he walks over towards
- 19:24Speaker 1: the center line of the arena. The cat nods towards
- 19:29Speaker 1: walker and does the same. All right, cat, well, good luck,
- 19:38Speaker 1: you're probably gonna need it, Magnus says, as he begins
- 19:43Speaker 1: to glow and grows larger and larger and larger, taking
- 19:49Speaker 1: on his deity level form a gigantic black dragon with
- 19:56Speaker 1: veins of pure sunlight energy. But for some reason, the
- 20:03Speaker 1: camping cat doesn't look particularly impressed. He just licks the
- 20:08Speaker 1: back of his paw, rubs it on top of his head,
- 20:13Speaker 1: and then flicks open his backpack. Will begin in three
- 20:22Speaker 1: two one go. For a second, Magnus and the cat
- 20:29Speaker 1: just stare at each other, and then Magnus decides to
- 20:34Speaker 1: start things off. He takes in a deep breath and
- 20:39Speaker 1: blasts out a plume of fire towards the cat. The
- 20:44Speaker 1: cat jumps out of the way almost instantly. Then he
- 20:50Speaker 1: pulls something out of his backpack, ugh a fire extinguisher.
- 20:56Speaker 1: He pulls the trigger and a plume of ice energy
- 21:01Speaker 1: shoots out. It instantly puts out Magnus's fire and then
- 21:07Speaker 1: starts covering him in a layer of ice. Although it's
- 21:12Speaker 1: not particularly effective. Magnus heats himself up, breaks out of
- 21:17Speaker 1: the ice, and stares over at the cat. The cat
- 21:22Speaker 1: responds by shooting out hell ropes. Ten different ropes suddenly
- 21:30Speaker 1: blast out of the back of his backpack. They float
- 21:34Speaker 1: through the air and start to wrap around Magnus's limbs.
- 21:39Speaker 1: They wrap his two front legs together, his two back
- 21:43Speaker 1: legs together, and then start knotting themselves up around and
- 21:48Speaker 1: around his body, pulling him down towards the ground. Hey
- 21:54Speaker 1: where is this? He says, Before he can do anything
- 21:59Speaker 1: to fight back, the cat pulls something else out of
- 22:03Speaker 1: his backpack, a poncho. He puts the poncho on, and
- 22:11Speaker 1: in a little twinkle of light, he suddenly disappears. Magnus,
- 22:19Speaker 1: I think that might be an invisibility pancho watch out.
- 22:23Speaker 1: I kind of saw that. Magnus responds, getting frustrated with
- 22:29Speaker 1: the ropes. Magnus heats up his entire body. His veins
- 22:35Speaker 1: glow brighter and brighter until he is glowing like the
- 22:41Speaker 1: sun itself. The ropes disintegrate, and then well. The cat
- 22:48Speaker 1: appears directly in front of him, holding a large can
- 22:52Speaker 1: that reads Deity Level Bear Spray. He pulls the trigger
- 22:59Speaker 1: and the stream of very very intense pemper spray shoots
- 23:06Speaker 1: out directly into Magnus's eyes. He roars in pain, closes
- 23:13Speaker 1: his eyes, and starts whipping around in circles. Wow, my eyes,
- 23:20Speaker 1: you little Magnus crows, angrier and angrier, his body still
- 23:27Speaker 1: lit up in a bright white heat. The cat disappears
- 23:34Speaker 1: once again, but slowly, something else starts to appear, or
- 23:40Speaker 1: some things else, a whole bunch of different bear traps,
- 23:47Speaker 1: you know, the circular kind with the spikes that snap
- 23:51Speaker 1: together if you step on them. Clearly, the cat is
- 23:55Speaker 1: making its way around the arena and littering the entire
- 23:59Speaker 1: place with the things, while Magnus, still completely blind from
- 24:04Speaker 1: the pepper spray, is just kind of whipping around frantically until,
- 24:11Speaker 1: of course, he hits one of the traps. The gigantic
- 24:16Speaker 1: mechanism snaps together and pierces Magnus's front right arm. He
- 24:23Speaker 1: screams in pain again, then backs up and accidentally hits
- 24:29Speaker 1: another one with his tail. It snaps around him, causing
- 24:34Speaker 1: another whine of pain. I clearly shouldn't have underestimated this
- 24:41Speaker 1: camping cat, card, you say out loud, as Magnus continues
- 24:47Speaker 1: to trip trap after trap until he stops puffing and puffing,
- 24:55Speaker 1: still trying to clear his eyes and see straight. But
- 25:00Speaker 1: it seems that the camping cat isn't going to give
- 25:03Speaker 1: him any time to do that. He begins appearing in
- 25:07Speaker 1: different parts of the arena and throwing something out of
- 25:12Speaker 1: his backpack. Some things, anyways, things that look suspiciously like marshmallows.
- 25:22Speaker 1: The marshmallows fly through the air, and as soon as
- 25:25Speaker 1: they hit Magnus's heat, they explode into huge globs of
- 25:32Speaker 1: gooey fire, covering Magnus's arms, legs, head. The marshmallows continue
- 25:39Speaker 1: to fly until Magnus is covered in not only a
- 25:44Speaker 1: whole bunch of metal bear traps, but a sticky layer
- 25:51Speaker 1: of marshmallow. Alright, Magnus says, trying to stay calm. I
- 26:00Speaker 1: was trying to be nice, but apparently I'm gonna have
- 26:07Speaker 1: to do this a little bit differently. He doesn't move
- 26:13Speaker 1: or struggle any longer. He just begins to well glow
- 26:22Speaker 1: hotter and hotter and hotter, until you can barely look
- 26:26Speaker 1: at him. With a single stomp of his front legs,
- 26:32Speaker 1: the ground melts itself into lava. In response, the cat
- 26:38Speaker 1: jumps into the air and pulls out his fire extinguisher again,
- 26:43Speaker 1: spraying a spot on the ground, solidifying it into rock
- 26:48Speaker 1: and landing directly in the center of it. At the
- 26:52Speaker 1: same time, Magnus dives down into the pool of lava
- 26:57Speaker 1: he's created in the bottom of the battle. The cat
- 27:02Speaker 1: continues to spray the area around him with his well
- 27:07Speaker 1: superpowered freezing fire extinguisher or whatever it is, creating enough
- 27:12Speaker 1: of a platform for him to move around on. Then
- 27:17Speaker 1: he uses his poncho to become invisible once again, though
- 27:23Speaker 1: it's probably not that much help since Magnus can assume
- 27:27Speaker 1: he isn't well standing on the lava. A gigantic form
- 27:33Speaker 1: of a lava dragon pops up in front of the
- 27:37Speaker 1: little platform and climbs up on top of it. Instantly,
- 27:43Speaker 1: the cat appears again and sprays the same can of
- 27:47Speaker 1: bear spray, then pulls out the fire extinguisher and blasts
- 27:52Speaker 1: the creature. It slowly solidifies into obsidian, allowing the camping
- 28:01Speaker 1: cat to make the correct realization that it wasn't even Magnus,
- 28:08Speaker 1: it was just a clump of lava that looked like
- 28:11Speaker 1: a dragon. But that realization is made a little bit
- 28:17Speaker 1: too late, as the real Magnus, covered in lava, pops
- 28:23Speaker 1: up from behind and instantly commands the lava to surround
- 28:29Speaker 1: the cat. A wave of lava from every side crashes
- 28:33Speaker 1: together at once, lifts the cat up into the air
- 28:38Speaker 1: and instantly solidifies into obsidian and without hesitation. Magnus takes
- 28:46Speaker 1: in a deep breath and unleashes a blast of well
- 28:53Speaker 1: mixed energy fire surrounded by lava and a touch of
- 29:00Speaker 1: lightning directly at the trapped cat. Unable to get anything
- 29:06Speaker 1: out of his backpack or react in any way, the
- 29:11Speaker 1: cat is instantly blasted back into energy. He reforms into
- 29:19Speaker 1: Walker's card core, and the referee announces the end of
- 29:24Speaker 1: the match. Well, folks, I believe we have a winner.
- 29:29Speaker 1: Your next round should be posted for tomorrow. I wish
- 29:35Speaker 1: you good luck. Now, if you could turn this arena
- 29:40Speaker 1: back to something we could all walk on, that would
- 29:44Speaker 1: be great. Magnus floats up in the air and almost
- 29:50Speaker 1: instantly transforms the lava into pure obsidian. It doesn't really
- 29:58Speaker 1: leave the battle arena looking like it started, but it's
- 30:01Speaker 1: at least something that everybody can walk on. The referee
- 30:06Speaker 1: lands in the middle, deactivating his energy shield, and at
- 30:11Speaker 1: the same time, the shield around you, and Walker disappears
- 30:16Speaker 1: as well. If you do would like to walk to
- 30:20Speaker 1: the center to shake hands, that would be traditional. You
- 30:26Speaker 1: walk forward and reach your hand out towards Walker. Gotta
- 30:31Speaker 1: be honest, that camping cad cart was way more powerful
- 30:35Speaker 1: than I thought it would be. Yeah, people often underestimate it,
- 30:40Speaker 1: but well, obviously you're at a different level of power.
- 30:45Speaker 1: Walker says, I'll be rooting for you. I hope you
- 30:51Speaker 1: win this entire thing. You shake hands with Walker. Clearly
- 30:56Speaker 1: there's no hard feelings. Eh, Are you new here? Walker asks,
- 31:03Speaker 1: he hath never been before. You say, now, well, then
- 31:07Speaker 1: let me show you around. You follow Walker into the
- 31:12Speaker 1: elevator and out of the battle arena. The uh hotels
- 31:17Speaker 1: are this way. You should already have one buked. You
- 31:21Speaker 1: walk between two large battle arenas to another area with
- 31:26Speaker 1: a bunch of large tower like structures. Walker helps you
- 31:32Speaker 1: to the front desk, where you receive a card key
- 31:35Speaker 1: after presenting your ID to them. Then he waves good
- 31:41Speaker 1: bye to you. At the elevators, You and Magnus, who
- 31:45Speaker 1: is transformed back into his dragonling form, make your way
- 31:49Speaker 1: up to the fourth floor and over to Hotel Room
- 31:55Speaker 1: four oh one, which is the number your key has
- 31:59Speaker 1: on it. You scan the key and enter into a
- 32:04Speaker 1: very luxurious looking hotel room, two beds, hot tubs, sna
- 32:12Speaker 1: and well a fully starked fridge. Magnus jumps up on
- 32:18Speaker 1: one of the beds, curls up and immediately begins to
- 32:23Speaker 1: fall asleep. After a little snack, you decide to do
- 32:29Speaker 1: the same. You pull the covers up to your chin,
- 32:34Speaker 1: close your eyes, and with each breath you sink down
- 32:40Speaker 1: deeper and deeper into the mattress, letting go of the
- 32:46Speaker 1: tension in your arms, your legs, your head, your neck,
- 32:54Speaker 1: and slowly allowing your mind to wander off to thoughts
- 32:59Speaker 1: of new adventures, new battles, and new things to come.
- 33:08Speaker 1: Good Night everyone, hm.
