4:42
in Future. It's another Well, unlike the other two that I've done so
4:47
far, this one's a graphic novel or comic book. But I love it
4:51
so much. I'm like, oh, I needs two episodes. It's gonna
4:57
be two parts because there's a lot. There's five volumes in the Sucker,
5:00
one hundred and sixty pages each with their fairly easy read. Yeah, so
5:05
this is One's in Future. It's released by Boom Studios, which they make
5:11
great comic books. If you want some like not even Marvel in DC.
5:15
They don't have a shared universe. They concentrate more on just on stories rather
5:21
than a universe, collective universe. This series ran from October nineteenth twenty sorry
5:30
August nineteenth, sorry, August twenty nineteen. Oh my god, right ran
5:38
from August twenty nineteen to October twenty twenty two and has about total about thirty
5:44
issues. But they collected, they put it together in five different volumes,
5:46
and today we're gonna be talking about or I'm gonna be talking about volumes one
5:50
and two. In this episode, I'm also going to go over some stuff
5:57
connected to Arthenian lore as well as Bale Wolf, because I do not expect
6:01
y'all to know everything and anything and everything about King Arthur and his court and
6:09
the story of Beale Wolf. I'm not going to expect you all to know
6:12
all that. And if I and if it seems like I'm looking to the
6:15
side, because the way my camera is camera's like right here at my computer
6:20
screen that I'm looking at is like over here and right in front where my
6:24
eyes are currently, so I'm bounce in back and forth. So if it
6:29
looks weird, because I'm not looking at the camera. My camera's placed on
6:31
the wall. Over here, Jacob over here is has his camera on his
6:38
laptop facing the way he's looking so that ugly mug of his. So the
6:46
story is created by Kirian. Oh god, Kirian Gillian Gillan. I'm terrible
6:55
with names. We know this, I am too. Yeah, it's Kirian
7:01
Gillan. Kieran Gillan is a British writer comic book writer. He's done stuff
7:08
for X Men, Marvels, Star Wars, Darth Vader. He's also doing
7:15
the He's a co creator of the Doctor for a series from Star Wars,
7:24
and he's done also some like DC work and Ship too. No, Siria,
7:28
I did not say your name, thank you. Why did my phone
7:30
poping up like that? Say that because my serial will pop off too.
7:36
Scares the shit out of me. I'll just be talking or or I'll just
7:40
say, man, are you serious. She'll just pop up and be like,
7:43
I'm always serious. Jacob, oh, my mother haunted, like the
7:46
last week's book, the thing between us, Oh God, they're talking to
7:54
us to that thing. But yeah, he's a combook writer and the other
8:01
co creator is Dan Mora who is the artist and his artwork and this is
8:07
so just and the colorist is Tamera bond Villain pronouncing that right again. I
8:20
love y'all, so sorry for this pronunciation of your name if I am mispronouncing
8:26
it. But the name to the to the writer's artist and stuff will also
8:30
be in the scripture blow, so I have those notes there so y'all can
8:33
see and where to find it and everything. So we're going into the volume
8:39
one. Volume one is called The King Is Undead. So we start off
8:52
with a in Cornwall, Great Britain, where we see a guy bring in
9:00
a he's the archaeologist, and they discovered an artifact from the fifth century and
9:07
he has with a long haired blonde woman who he thinks is some professor from
9:11
some university, and they show that it's a They shows some blades and some
9:18
some a dagger and like a what we call it a hand axe from the
9:24
fifth what they believe is from the fifth century, as well as a helt
9:26
of a sword or the god what's the term. It's not a helt,
9:31
it's a chef. So when you put the sword in, that's a sheath
9:39
right right, the scabbard scabbard sheath Siah, it's yeah, that's what it's.
9:48
It's the thing that you put the sword in the blade in and yeah,
9:52
theath or scabbard. There you go, that's where I was looking for.
9:56
They find. He shows a sca that he found that him and his
10:01
crew found, and she's like oh and he's like, oh, this is
10:05
a Are you a doctor or some kind? And she's like, yep,
10:09
yeah, I sure am, and she calls in her men, her lackeys
10:15
are with her, and they take the set artifact and they unfortunately shoot the
10:20
guy. Honestly, they were not sitting by no university unfortunately, so they
10:26
took the artifact. And then we jump over to our nursing home and sumer
10:33
set and we meet an old woman known as Bridget. She's an old grandma
10:41
five foot nothing, typical grandma type, sitting there listening to the news and
10:46
she's rolling tobacco, rolling her own cigarettes. They're in the nursing home,
10:52
knowing, damn well, she shouldn't, but she does it anyway like a
10:56
stubborn grandma. And they're watching the local news and she's obviously smoking her little
11:03
cigarette and one of the nurses comes up, you can't be doing that.
11:07
And she's like, but I just see it smoke, just one little smoke,
11:11
and I got like, no, you can't be doing that. So
11:15
he takes this cigarette and she's just like and she just sits there and watches
11:18
the whatever news broadcasts are watching. Then we jump over to Bristol and we
11:26
meet a ginger young man, probably in his They never actually say his age.
11:33
I'm assuming from the artwork he looks to be like his late twenties early
11:37
thirties. And he's on a date with a with a woman and he spilt
11:43
wine all over her on their first day to a nice restaurant, and I'm
11:46
like, damn, I mean, if you're single, because they draw him
11:52
so good, so good in this story the Gayness and me, so it's
12:01
His name is Duncan and he's on a date with a woman named Rhodes.
12:07
They obviously Rose works with the history department of a local university for academia,
12:16
and he is do they actually say what he works, but his job is
12:26
actually never say what he actually does. He's not right here anyway. But
12:33
yeah, he's on a date and it's not going so hot, and they
12:35
get a call from his grandma and he picks up the phone and she's like,
12:41
oh, let me guess you're going to something came up. I just
12:45
have to go. You're going to escape through the bathroom window. And he's
12:48
like, it's a stake going that bad for you and I'm still here.
12:52
Basically, I'm still here. And he's like, no, my grandmother,
12:56
my grand's calling me, and she's like, oh, is everything okay?
13:00
So he and he basically talks about how his grandmother is hard as nails,
13:05
a bad bitch. She doesn't take shit off anybody, and she wants things
13:09
her way or the highway, so she's very very much a handful for an
13:15
old elderly woman. And when he picks up the phone, duncan here's his
13:24
grandmother and she's like, yeah, I'm in the woods smoking a cigarette and
13:33
she's like, yeah, I run away. And he's like why'd you run
13:35
away? And she's like it seemed easier than making a fuss about all the
13:39
bullshit going on. She's like, so I left, and he's like,
13:45
I have to go get you now. So he has to leave his date
13:48
because she decided to run away from a nursing home on a little adventure and
13:54
apparently she does this a lot, so he has to constantly drop whatever he's
13:58
doing to go hunt for his grandma. There and he ventures off into the
14:03
woods to find her and she and he does, but as he comes up,
14:07
she's trying to pull a latch up from the ground, and he's like,
14:11
what are you doing. She's like, I'm handling something. She said,
14:18
I need some old things, and he opens up the hatch, adds
14:22
a bunch of weapons, full armory, guns, all shapes and sizes,
14:26
knives, daggers, a whole pop in the ground and he's like, what
14:31
the fuck is this? And she's like, ah, nothing's missing. And
14:35
of course he hasn't know anything about this. He just he's raised his whole
14:39
life not knowing his grandmother has weapons and some pit downstairs, down in the
14:43
ground, somewhere in the middle of the woods. So he is flobber goose.
14:48
Dude, He's like, what the fuck is this? And he's like,
14:52
she's setting up for a adventure. She's looking for something in particular.
14:58
And as they're looking, she looks outside and she's like, oh, dear,
15:03
as this green mist starts forming around the area, and he's like,
15:07
what's this lightning. Why did the lightning changes. She's like, well,
15:11
this isn't good. And he's like, what's going on? And you see
15:16
a beast, an animal that shows up behind them when they're not looking.
15:24
Now, this animal has a body of a lion, head of a snake
15:28
like. Its neck is like a snake coming out of the body of the
15:33
lion, and the lion. The body of the cat is a combination of
15:37
a lion and a leopard. And it has like a lizard's tail, and
15:39
it's pregnant with babies. And this is known as a questing beast. Now,
15:48
as I said before, I am going to kind of fill everyone in
15:50
on what some of this stuff is if you're not acquainted with Arthenian lore,
15:54
So, a questing beast is a cross animal monster that years in various texts
16:00
of Arthenian war. If you see a questing beast, it usually means,
16:03
Okay, there's a there's a there's a a quest is coming. It's a
16:10
sign. It's an omen that, oh, you're about to go on a
16:12
quest. It's it pops up at the most random times. It pops up
16:18
at the most inconvenient times, and it's kind of annoying. So they Duncan's
16:25
freaked the hell out because obviously he's never seen a creature like this, and
16:29
the ladies and gentlemen we are now joined with Devin's roommate, roommate Sean.
16:47
Oh, I thought that was Sewan. No, that's not Johnny and Sean
16:52
anyway, So the Questing Bee starts running, chasing Duncan, and he's like,
16:59
oh, you're looking to see no one, no one came in the
17:04
room. Well, no, no one's gonna ever. No one would ever
17:07
walk into my room without my permission. No I was. I thought I
17:11
heard Shelly like moving around, but no, she's she made a bed out
17:15
of all my hoodies that I threw on my my bed. You and your
17:18
hoodies, m hm. Questing Beasts. So the Questing Beast is chasing Duncan,
17:25
and his Grandma's like wow did his Grandma's like yeah, keep him busy
17:32
as she's getting weapons. Uh want her to know it was me. So
17:41
the Questing Beast is chasing Duncan through the woods and it's tearing up, tearing
17:48
down trees, rampaging through the woods as Duncan's like running full sprint and she's
17:53
just throwing grenade. She's throwing a grenade launcher aside a dagger a gun,
17:57
and she's like found it, and she's yelling to her grandson come back around,
18:03
and he starts running his way around as the beast catches up to him,
18:10
and he's just like, you know, I thought the date was the
18:14
lowest point, not this. I didn't think I was gonna be fighting monsters
18:18
today. So the monster and him start going like head to head to each
18:21
other. As he picks up, he picks up a literal tree that fell
18:25
off the ground. Now, mind you, this boy grew up his whole
18:29
life as a normal person and he doesn't know that he has these certain powers
18:33
and shit. So he's literally picking up a whole tree, whole ass tree,
18:37
using it as a weapon to tackle this beast. And he shoves the
18:41
big, huge log, it's probably a good five footer five foot piece of
18:47
log, and shoves it in the questbist's mouth and as he makes a run
18:51
for it from her, and it of course chumps it off, and as
18:55
he's running back to his grandmother, his grandmother throws up a I think at
18:59
the javelin. It has a a long spear with a flag on the internet,
19:06
so I'm assuming that's a javlin. So she's like here and he lance
19:12
is a lance, So he throws up. He catches a lance and he
19:18
puts out like a battle cry as he tries to throw the lance at the
19:22
Questing Beast who's coming after him, and the Questing Beast stops and runs off,
19:30
and he starts chasing it, and his grandma's like, don't bother,
19:33
it's not go. Don't bother. Let it go. I'll come back again.
19:36
You don't have to kill you know, you don't have to kill this
19:38
thing right now. I'll come back later. You'll have to kill it later
19:42
though, But she's like, don't worry about it now, I'll come back.
19:48
And it does. So the Questing Beast ventures off and it's just those
19:52
two with their arsenal weapons and shit, and of course don't get tell me
19:56
a belt down. He's like, what is this? This shit is real,
20:00
The Questing Beast is real, because all he knows is that these are
20:03
all stories that he was told as a kid. He didn't know all this
20:07
shit was legit. And his grandma's like, a, yeah, oh this
20:11
is real, but he said this was nonsense, and she's like, yeah,
20:17
it's still nonsense, but I didn't say it wasn't real. So he's
20:22
losing his ship. His world's been shattered, and he's like, I'm not
20:26
doing this and he's like she's like, we're going this adventure and he's like,
20:30
I'm not doing this. You're serious, You're crazy, and he pulls
20:34
a gun on her. She pulls a gun on him. He's like,
20:37
no, you are get in your car. We're gonna drive. And she
20:42
has him at gunpoint as he picks up her lug at her stuff as she's
20:48
taking with her, and he's like, you're not gonna shoot me, and
20:51
she's like, oh okay. She shoots him. She shoots them in the
20:53
ear so his ear low blows off, and he's like, this is his
20:59
grandmother. Yes, Jesus, sounds like my grandmother. Bridgie is a battye.
21:03
So this is an old, bitter British woman. And she yeah,
21:11
shoots off his ear low, but he's like, you shot me. She's
21:14
like I was trying to mince. Oh well, and they go back to
21:21
his car put the stuff in the trunk, and then they go on a
21:25
journey to basically hunt for Excalibur, and then he's like Excalibur. What and
21:38
he's like, yeah, Excaliburate, it's real. So he gets a nice,
21:45
nice little awakening with that. He's like, Excalibur, you're telling me
21:51
Excalber is real. He's like, she's like repeating yourself. Is it gonna
21:53
make it any better? All right, solve anything, So take a deep
21:56
breath. It's fine. Escalabur is real. Cool, move on. And
22:02
he talks about how, oh, it's Arthur's sword and she's like, no,
22:06
no, it's not Arthur's sword. It was lended to him by It
22:11
was loaned to Arthur, which in the original story, if you know,
22:15
Excalibur is technically the owner of Excalber is the lady of the lake, So
22:22
technically speaking, the Excalbur is not Arthur King Arthur's sword, it was just
22:26
loan to him for the story purposes. And she talks about how somebody is
22:33
trying to kickstart a prophecy, and that's what happened in the beginning with the
22:41
shef is that this group or this person's trying to kickstart prophecy, bring Arthur
22:48
back from the dead, all that fun shit, and then we to reunite
22:53
the Brits. The Britons United, Kingdom England, not King Arthur. If
23:02
you all don't know, I mean, I'm just saying most people know who
23:04
King Arthur is or the story of him, that he was a king and
23:10
Arthenian low and he raged war against the Anglo Saxons and all that fun shit.
23:18
They may be asking, wait, huh. I just want to add,
23:21
like, the unfortunate thing about the story with King Arthur is that well
23:25
a lot of it is embellished. We're not really sure if he if this
23:29
is just like a the historians are not really sure if he was real or
23:33
if this was just a myth that yeah, that was created during the Dark
23:37
Ages. Because the thing is is that his story originates during a time period
23:41
when there was no written records being kept. Yeah, so this was like
23:48
after the fall of the Roman Empire, because the fall of the Roman Empire
23:52
is what kickstarted the Dark Ages, and so like any kind of authority that
23:56
was responsible for chronicling history, they just stopped. Yeah, they ceased to
24:03
exist. So whether or not Arthur Pendragon was a real figure in Britannia at
24:11
the time was it's still up in the air. There's hints and evidence to
24:17
his existence like artwork and of course the verbal retelling of his story. But
24:23
whether or not he is real is still up in the air. I mean,
24:27
I'm pretty sure he was real, but of course a lot of the
24:30
like his travels and things that he faced were probably embellished a lot. Yeah,
24:40
But sadly there's no like, as Jacob said, there's no concrete evidence
24:45
that he literally existed. And so there's the whole gray area of like is
24:51
this considered mythology or is this considered literature? So it's that weird little gray
24:56
area of with the Arthenian Law and stories, King Arthur again was raging war
25:03
against the Anglo Saxons. And you may be asking, wait, aren't the
25:10
Anglo Saxons the British? Yes, yes, yes, yes, you are
25:15
correct, dear viewer. The Celts is what King Arthur was fighting with,
25:26
the Celts versus the Anglo Saxons. It gets weird, Okay, it gets
25:30
weird. The whole Arthenian Law, when you really look at it, is
25:33
very convoluted because there's different different tellings of the story and shit. So in
25:37
this comic illustrates that because some of the stuff that you think you know is
25:41
actually wrong. And how like in this world, Oh, it's something different,
25:48
and even as I soon we'll find out. Even Arthur when he comes
25:52
back from the dead, he's very confused and shit, which again kind of
25:55
illustrates on how Arthenian lower what we have is very calm alluded. So like
26:04
the sword and Stone, some people think sword of sownes Excalibur, and some
26:10
people think it's not, that's two different swords. That the that the sword
26:15
and the stones is something different compared to Excaliburs because galver is technically with the
26:18
Lady the Lake. But why is it in the stone if it's not Excalibur,
26:22
And what's the sword of that? It's weird, It's there's no straight
26:26
answer. It's a lot of just make your own piece together, your own
26:32
way and ship. Yeah, depending on like what lore you follow or you
26:40
know, what sources you prefer. There's there are legends of like these legendary
26:45
swords, and two of them. Some people believe two of these legendary swords
26:51
appear in ar Theorian legends, so of course Excalbur is one of them.
26:55
And while a lot of people believe Excalibur was the Sword and Stone, other
27:00
people believe it was actually another sword called Clarence or yeah, Clarence, is
27:07
that the Black Knight. No, the sword's name is called no, not
27:12
the Black Knight. The sword in the stone's name was actually like Clarence,
27:18
Like that's his name or Clarence, I only I don't know how to pronounce
27:23
the name, but that's a name of one of the swords. And EXCaliber,
27:29
like he eventually gets Excalibur from the late the Lady of the Lake,
27:32
because I think Clarence was actually supposed to be his father's sword that was driven
27:36
into the stone, and then later on he he needed a more powerful legend
27:42
more like magical sword, and that's where EXCaliber comes from. Like there's a
27:48
bunch of different like all across Europe, there's legends about these these legendary swords,
27:52
like you know, of course Excalibur. There's one sword called I think
27:56
it's called Durande, Yeah, Derondel. Uh, there's Qurtana, there's Uh,
28:06
I'm pretty sure this is a it's a French. There's a French sword
28:10
or I don't know how to pronounce it. It starts with the jay like
28:12
joy use or joy. Uh. There's a lot of swords. There's a
28:18
lot of different swords, and as far as I know, two of them
28:21
it's Clarence and uh Excalibur appear in Arthurian legends. But then again, like
28:30
we said, it's so convoluted. You can find so many different sources and
28:34
they'll either contradict each other or support each other. And I like how this
28:38
comic illustrates that because even Arthur can't get shipped straight either, so because he's
28:45
all jumbled up and ship. So we jump back to Grandmama. She's explaining
28:49
everything about the how Arthur wants to reunite Britain and they and he. She
28:57
talks about how some how theres a group that wants to bring them back,
29:02
bring him back, and he only comes back at a time at Britain's darkest
29:07
time, but they don't say what's funny about that is kind of correct and
29:12
when they say King Arthur will come back when Britain needs him most, at
29:17
the darkest time, but they never tell you if he's the reason for the
29:21
darkest time. So the fact that you start seeing like with this story and
29:25
how King Arthur is perceived as evil and there's other other stories that do the
29:30
same thing with that, because they never strictly tell you what causes the dark
29:34
time that he would need to come back. Is him coming back the reason
29:40
why the dark times for Britain come. So that's what it kind of plays
29:45
into with this, is that, sure, yeah, he'll come back when
29:48
Britain needs him most. They see the problem. The answer in the story
29:52
is yes, yes, he is definitely the fucking problem. Skeletory looking motherfucker.
29:59
So while the grandmother's explaining all this, we jumped back. We jumped
30:03
back to the woman in the beginning where she got that artifact and she finds
30:08
the tomb of King Arthur. And as the grandmother says, and I quote,
30:19
well he could return because it's Britain's darkest time, darkest hour. Sure
30:25
or his return could cause it again, they don't really tell you. I
30:30
love that. I was like, oh, that's so cool. So then
30:33
we jumped to the next chapter where she's I mean basically going on, I
30:42
rant on how all this is rerail and her grandson Duncan is just like losing
30:48
his goddamn mind. He's like, all this is fucking to like, what
30:49
the fuck what am I supposed to do with this information? He's had a
30:52
hard time digest it, digesting this information, and he's kind of just losing
31:00
his mind because he's not in control of the situation. And he's like,
31:03
I don't know what the fuck to do with all this, and she's like
31:04
it's gonna be fine, and he's worried about the Questing Beast and his grandmother's
31:10
like, the Questing Beast is pretty simple, Duncan. You're on you're on
31:14
a quests. It's fine, it's fine. You have a job to do
31:17
now, and he's like, what the fuck is that supposed to mean?
31:19
And they get to their location and they walk to this castle out in the
31:22
middle of the open fields and hills of England, and they open up the
31:29
door to this little tower and that green, dreamlike smoke surrounds place again,
31:37
which means something else is coming. And we see when he opens up the
31:42
door there's a staircase at least downward, and you see a bunch of four
31:45
women around the spiral staircase. And then Duncan's like, who are who are
31:51
these people? And she's his Grandma's like, don't be rude. These are
31:55
the lady, these are the ladies of the lake. Mind that they're not
31:59
gonna do it. They might. They're in minding their own business. And
32:01
she's that we're not looking for them, we're looking for wolves, and goes
32:07
down the spiral staircase and at the very bottom we jump back to the woman,
32:13
the blonde woman, Elaine is her name, and she is at the
32:20
grave of King Arthur. The two and they open up the open up the
32:27
grave and you see the skeleton of what presumably King Arthur Warner's crown. And
32:32
she it's like at last, and she takes the sheath and she puts up
32:37
to the corpse. She's like the ones and future king and they're getting Grandma's
32:44
getting getting gun and looaded as she's walking down the spiral staircase and she sees
32:47
this the weird smoke as the skeleton comes to life all in it's green smoke
32:54
and goo as a skeleton starts getting up and ignow, that's King Arthur.
33:01
Like it's trying to speak. Of course, King Arthur's from a time period
33:06
that English is not spoken like it is today, because you're dealing with old
33:09
English. So he's the way they way she puts it is that that give
33:15
him a minute. He's he's getting his bearings in his mind. I guess
33:20
with magic, his mind's reworking to where when he speaks it's like the English
33:24
we have today, because technically speaking, the English we have today and old
33:29
English from that from the time period that he comes from, is too raised
33:32
two different languages. It's more close to the German than it is English.
33:37
If you didn't know, ladies and gentlemen and listeners, since English is a
33:44
Germanic language, Yeah, it's closely related to Like there was a lot of
33:51
northern languages like German, and I think, I don't want to say like
33:55
Norwegian, but there's like a dialect like Swedish, Yeah, Swedish, Sweden,
34:02
Norway, Germany, England. I think Gaelic is also thrown in that.
34:09
But there's all like the most of the like you're the northern European countries
34:14
outside of like outside of course, like France and Italy, and then those
34:16
are the Romantic languages. But liked all the the Vikings and the Anglo Saxons,
34:22
the Celts, all that most of their languages all come from the Germanic
34:24
language, the base language that that family. So if you didn't know,
34:32
unlike American English, which is a combination of many different languages. Awesome you
34:37
really think about it. Yeah, American English, Yeah, American English takes
34:42
a lot from of course, not just from Old British but like Old British
34:47
English. But yeah, and also like local dialects that was that you can
34:53
find here in the United States, like Native American language, Like if you
34:58
if you're from if you're listening from the UK, and you ever visit areas
35:04
that have like large Native American communities, you'll notice a lot of native Native
35:12
American terms or like cities or towns that are or even like for common phrases
35:20
that we use, and there you could trace our origin to, like the
35:22
Native American dialects, like like especially you drive through it ten like the interstate
35:30
going through like the northern half of the northern part of Florida. They'll pass
35:35
through like Tallahassee. Ah, god, there was one called not tal it
35:42
was. Oh, there were some crazy ones, but yeah, those languages,
35:47
and then also French and Spanish. Yeah, and then oh of course,
35:52
like of course we have like a lot of there's a lot of different
35:54
settlers from Europe and all over the world. So sometimes like depending on what
36:00
or the United States you're in, there'll be a lot of like, uh,
36:04
different words that we use that German, Spanish, depending on you're in
36:08
the south. Yeah, German, French, Spanish. It's a lot of
36:15
we use a lot of turns different languages over here. So it's English at
36:20
its core, but there's a lot of other stuff that are kind of thrown
36:22
in depending on what part of the country you're in, like here in here
36:27
in San Antonio, which is where uh, Devin and I are based in
36:31
we uh, there's a lot of like a mixture of Spanish and German.
36:37
Yeah, so you'll if you ever take a visit here, I highly recommend
36:43
uh you'll see a lot of that, like text Mexical. We have a
36:46
hot, really large text mex culture here. Yes, most definitely text mex
36:53
food. So anyway I can talk about food. So king are there,
37:00
skelet wo are looking ass? He comes up alive and his flesh, his
37:06
organs start coming back as his muscle start formers, like he's the ding there.
37:09
You can see his rib cage, but you can also see his organs
37:12
start reforming, so you see his intestine, his stomach all showing from like
37:17
the rib cage, and shit, it looks fucking lit teeth starts like forming
37:22
as his jaw starts like reforming with a flesh with green crackling magic. As
37:28
he pulls out a sword and he goes up to one of the men as
37:32
Duncan and his grandma are watching this, and they're like, and Duncan's like,
37:37
the sword is like, what are you to pull out the sword in
37:38
a stone? He's like a sword in some story is a buried sword.
37:43
And she's like, it's convoluted, don't worry about it. So the three
37:50
the men that are with Elaine about before. I think that's the thing.
37:54
That's how you pronounce Elaine Elaine. He l A I N E. Yeah,
38:02
yeah, okay, cool's right. And that's a reference to arth anymore
38:07
as well for those and you don't know, but that'll be explained later.
38:12
Arthur gets his sword, takes up one of the hands of one of the
38:15
men and cuts their hands and drinks their blood and he looks at them and
38:22
the guy's like, what the fuck And the guy's drinking. Arthur's like and
38:27
he lets out of hiss and looks at the man and he's like Anglo Saxon.
38:32
He doesn't like Anglo Saxons. So he kills the guy. He literally
38:37
takes him by the head, lifts him up and chops him in half blood,
38:42
guts everywhere. It's great, it's great and getting blood blood and then
38:47
yeah, and but Arthur is like standing all heroic and king like, and
38:52
he's just like and everyone's like freaking out screaming the ones who are technically she
39:00
brought a bunch of Anglo sax Anglo Saxon descendants. There a bunch of British
39:06
descendants. And I don't know why she did that, because if she would
39:08
have known, she probably would have, but brought, like I don't know,
39:13
some Irish or some Welsh descendants, not necessarily British, because Arthur hates
39:21
Britain, the the the Britons. Yeah, for whatever reason, even though
39:27
he's the King of Britain. Again, don't think too hard about it.
39:30
It's a lot. He's Celtic. I've been fine. I would have been
39:35
fine. Jacob would not. Yeah, I'm all. I am both British
39:43
like well, my family can trace their roots back to Britain, Spain,
39:47
Anglo Saxon and span and Spaniard. Yeah, he wouldn't gone. You've been
39:52
gone done so, I've been fine, so yeah, he's all killing everybody
39:59
and a Lane is like there, like, well shit, and she lifts
40:01
up her hand to drink the as he checks her blood and he's like he
40:07
drinks it, and he's like, you come to pay homage to the true
40:10
King of Britain. Celt Obviously she's Celtic descent, and she knew that.
40:17
She's like, I'm fine, and obviously because her hair is blonde, but
40:23
she's also kind of I don't know how to describe it blonde, but she's
40:29
also kind of Ginger's like a strawberry blonde thing going on with the color choice.
40:31
It has like a very light orange that you can kind of see is
40:36
blonde, but there's some bread there. So obviously Celtic is she. And
40:39
of course King Arthur stops. He's like, where are my knights And she's
40:47
like, yeah, they're dead and she's it's just her and he's like,
40:52
well, I can't, must start from somewhere, so he's like, raised
40:55
my knights and she makes the He makes the corpse that he the people he
41:00
killed, and the men he turns them into his knights. So he uses
41:07
the dead corpses, attaches armor to them and remakes his circle as this woman
41:15
is obviously she goes by a lame and they're caught, the Grandma and Duncan.
41:21
Grann and Duncan are caught and they're like, oh shit, and they
41:24
make a run for it, as Arthur well, actually they try sneak out.
41:30
Duncan trips and catches the attention of the Knights of the New Knights as
41:35
they start going after them, and then they go on a wild goose chase
41:39
as Granny and Duncan unleash bullets and lead upon the Knights and Arthur. Now,
41:47
Jacob, do you think bullets would work on an undead king? You
41:54
know, in popular media, both books, graphic novels and movie bullets don't
42:01
work for shit, according to like the logic from these kind of from these
42:07
kinds of media, because especially when it comes to magic or some other supernatural
42:13
being or aliens or what have you, if it is supernatural in nature,
42:17
bullets don't work. And you are correct in that assumption. Mm hmmm.
42:24
The bullets fly right throughom and he's just like h okay, and they start
42:30
running for it as the nice contu chase him, and Graham pulls out from
42:35
her shirt a grenade a bomb and she's like, eh, eat this and
42:40
explodes everything. Yeah, And they make their way out of said castle that
42:45
they were once in, and they kind of so the smoke, the colorful
42:53
smoke that changes as they continue on, or when they get into an area
42:58
where the monster appears, Ring King Earth that comes back, that green rainbow
43:02
kind of discolored smoke or fog that comes in is means they're technically setting foot
43:08
in other world. And you may be asking, oh my god, what
43:13
is other world? Other world, depending on the lore, could mean a
43:15
couple of different things. If you're talking about other worlds, and as far
43:22
as the ark and in war Avalon is considered other world. If you're talking
43:29
about the Celtic mythology, other world is something else. Same with the Welsh.
43:36
It just means they come from a world that's not the world of fairies
43:39
and magic. Basically, So when that little smoke comes in rolls in,
43:45
that's when you know something it's going to happen, as far as something from
43:52
the other world that's going to show up and pay an unwanted visit to you
44:00
if you're there. Cut that part out, Devin, So we jump back
44:08
to after the bomb goes off and they make their escape. King Arthur and
44:13
his Knights with Elaine side, they decided to take a trip over to other
44:19
world from the roal world. So she Elaine talks about how she she talks
44:30
about a knight that she has a someone that that would be very beneficial to
44:37
Arthur, and she's like, oh. Arthur's like, oh, well,
44:38
take us to your boy, show us your boy, and they go through
44:43
a portal and they go figure all that shit out, and that's where we
44:46
lead back to Granny and Duncan as Grandma is smoking a cigarette again like you
44:52
do because she's a baddie, and she's like, I we need more informations
44:59
than they trying to discuss a plan to find how to get more information on
45:02
all of this that's happening, because they want to be in the know,
45:07
figure out, try to guess what they're gonna do next. Where Arthur's gonna
45:09
go. King Arthur's gonna go with this woman. And Graham talks to Duncan
45:15
says, hey, doesn't your doesn't the woman you went on a date with.
45:20
Don't she gonna work out a university for history or some shit? AND's
45:23
like, yeah, she does. So he's like, okay, cool,
45:27
let's pay her a visit. So they go up to your house. Knock,
45:30
knock, knock. She opens the door, she's like, hey,
45:35
Rose, I'm so sorry, points a gun at her. They're coming with
45:37
us, and Duncan's like, are you fucking mad? And she's like,
45:42
what it worked with you? I mean I gotta get her to come with
45:45
us somehow, right. She doesn't think things through. She's old. So
45:52
Rose goes with them, of course, because a gunpoint. And they go
45:59
to the the archives of the university she works at, and they're trying to
46:05
look for some they're looking for a doctor's there's a certain box that a doctor
46:12
or professor left there, and then she's looking for that and I guess the
46:15
doctor or the professor your left died. Doesn't matter. I'm not gonna look.
46:21
I'm not gonna go looking and try to find it. Doesn't matter.
46:22
He's not there anymore. So she's like, yeah, we should have had
46:24
the archives of that somewhere. So she finds a box that has a lock
46:28
on it. She knows the combination. She opens it and she finds a
46:31
letter as set of keys and one that says I'm sorry it signed Charles West,
46:40
and this man has a connection to Grant, of course, and it
46:47
talks about how like, if you're reading this now, it's it's worst case
46:52
scenario. It's code red, code red. Shit's hitting the fan. The
47:02
fan we wiu. If you're reading this and I'm not around, we woo
47:07
black code black co black, So must be that. Oh yeah, and
47:15
she needs In the fourth Grand's like, well, ship, now we gotta
47:17
go find Arthur interrupt him and his knights as they try to find, oh
47:25
god, Galahad when they try to find Galahad, who's supposedly the perfect Night.
47:32
Now Galahad. Little history on that, because they kind of do go
47:38
over that in the story, but I might as well just do it now.
47:42
It's Galahad. Galahad is a Knight of the Round Table. He's one
47:46
of the three archivers of the Holy Grail and the Arthenian War. He is
47:52
the bastard child of Lancelot and Elaine, Elaine of Astrolot and lance. I
48:06
say it because obviously Lancelot was married to somebody else, but he had a
48:12
thing with this Elaine and had a bastard child, and that's who Galahad is
48:22
now. Yeah, he's the legitimate illegitimate child of Lancelot, and he is
48:30
renowned for his purity as the most perfect of all knights. And he comes
48:38
up and the Arthenian law quite late in the total lore, so it comes
48:44
in towards the end of it. So's he's probably one of the youngest knights,
48:49
if not the youngest of the knights. So that's basically what he's what
48:53
she's worried about. She's like, we got to stop him from finding his
48:58
galahad because then that's that's that's that's the start of the end. So they
49:04
go to this church. As they walk in, of course, Grant's like,
49:07
okay, cool, Rose, light a candle, and she's like,
49:09
okay, cool, lights a candle. Walks in this church, she's a
49:12
bunch of spirits and ghosts floating around, and of course Rose is like,
49:17
oh this is fucking real. What the look on her face is just like
49:23
behooved. I don't know about you. I'd be like, oh my god,
49:28
this ship is so cool. My god, I'd be living. But
49:32
that's me personally. I'm coming that job. So mm hm. You're always
49:37
down for the tea. I'm always down for the tea, yeah, King
49:40
Arthur tea yea, so tea destruction if of course, of course, I
49:52
mean, come on, that's why I implement this ship into my D and
49:54
D game with Void Onnica, which if it's not up by now, it
49:58
will be fairly soon. It's a lot of work doing that, by the
50:02
way. Yeah, you know, cut this part out. But if if
50:07
it wasn't so, if everything wasn't so volatile, I would invite you to
50:09
my grandmother's funeral because I'm pretty sure this I'm pretty sure there would be like
50:15
something like something's gonna happen. I don't know, I just have a feeling
50:19
that something like ship's gonna hit the fan. Say, I'd be in the
50:22
bag just going after I after I quenched the burns, bursting in the flans
50:30
and walking into a church. What's happening. It's not just any kind of
50:36
church. It's a Catholic church too. Oh yeah, instantly just burst into
50:38
flames after I fout the fire. Oh no, I sit, I sit
50:45
in the back. Incognitive it's like m so, bros. Grand tells Rose,
50:54
keep the candlelight, stay outside the door, detur from everyone coming in
50:59
here, and whatever you do keep make sure the candle stays lit. The
51:02
candle doesn't stay lit, and goes out. We're fucked for trapped there.
51:07
That's our gateway back is the candle. So she has like an old fashioned
51:10
candle and she's keeping it. Let as they go deeper into this chapel,
51:15
as they come up to a door, when they open it and you see
51:21
a sword in the stone in this other world, and Duncan's like Excalibur.
51:29
She's like, oh, Duncan, and some stories yes, and most no,
51:32
excal belongs to the Lady of the lake. Remember this is maybe Clarant,
51:39
as Jacob was saying, She's like, because she's like, I'm not
51:43
even sure it could be clarant. It's possibly too late fourteenth fifteenth century.
51:47
This Arthur seems mainly early Welsh maybe, like I said, as this story
51:57
is illustrating shit's weird and humble lot. And she's like, let's sick with
52:01
the sword in the stone. Just the sword in the stone, right,
52:05
it's not Scalpur most likely. She's like, it's not. Just call the
52:08
sword in the stone. Don't confuse you or me. And Arthur pulls out
52:15
the sword in the stone and he gets his badass cloak and armor, and
52:19
you know what, I'll just show the camera because it's it's kind of cool
52:22
and how it is. That's the armor he gets, like the cloak and
52:27
the ship. When he pulls out the sword in the stone and I'm like,
52:30
this shits lit. And he's like, speak to me, Britain.
52:35
It hungers for the throat of the Saxon men. And I'm like, he's
52:38
bloodthirsty. And then the woman Elaine walks up and she's like, my king,
52:45
my son Galahad, and it's a blonde pressy boy. Again, I
52:52
will show oh shit, I will show a picture. Blonde pressy boy.
52:59
Think he's top shit. I'm the most beautiful creature imaginable. I am the
53:05
perfect night before me Galahad. And and Grand's out here like, oh Elaine,
53:13
how much did that cost you? And this is her child, by
53:17
the way, And she's also thinking, says, okay, Galahad is the
53:23
son of Lancelot. He's the greatest knight, chosen chosen one's silliness. And
53:30
she's like, who's the father because obviously these people, Lancelot and the original
53:37
Elaine are now around in today's times, so someone had somebody had to fill
53:44
the slot of Lancelot. But she's like who And I'm getting can't kind of
53:50
ahead myself, but she's she's kind of like, who'd she get to be
53:53
the Lancelot? Obviously if she got Lancelot, she had to bear said child
54:01
with a merry man who's on the same level as Lancelot in whatever terms that
54:07
seem femable. But Galahad goes up to Arthur and he's like, I was
54:15
bred for the purpose, for this purpose, my king, let us start
54:19
this age of adventure. And Duncan and gran are spying watching all this,
54:25
and he's like, Okay, what's this, what's the whole purpose of this?
54:30
And he's like, Galahad finds the Grail, the Grail heals the land.
54:37
And she's like, if they find the Holy Grail, none of us
54:40
will survive that purge, because the Grail will purge the land, heal it,
54:47
and bring it back to what it once was, killing everybody in the
54:50
process. And I'm like, wow, that doesn't seem that much like a
54:53
holy Grail. So and Duncan's like, how apposed to stop this? And
55:04
of course she's like, of course, mere saying that his grandma is putting
55:07
a sniper rifle over his shoulder and she's like, don't move, and she's
55:12
aiming for a headshot for Galahad and she goes in, or she tries to
55:20
go in for the shot. We jump back up to the beginning to the
55:24
front of the building as you see Rose and two security guards coming up to
55:30
him like, so what are you doing and she's like, oh, you
55:32
know this and that I'm part of the history exhimt shit, you know,
55:37
don't worry about it. She sends him a wife. She talks, and
55:40
she talks and the like this is she's there for a purpose, don't worry
55:44
about it. And they walk away, and we jump back to King Arthur
55:46
as he knights Galahad and Gran's still trying to line up her shot to shoot
55:53
him in the brain, because if you get rid of the Galahad, it
55:58
won't stop them completely, but it'll put it'll cause them to it'll set them
56:04
back a bit on their obviously on King Arthur's plan. So but his mother
56:09
gets in the way and she's like, God, wish she just fucking moved.
56:14
And they're trying to align the shot as he's getting knighted by King Arthur
56:17
and Duncan just busts open the door like he owns the place, and of
56:24
course King Arthur's like, just draw them, and all the Knights go after
56:30
them as they start running their way out of the building, and eventually they
56:34
do get out and they see the police there and then point the guns at
56:36
them. They're like hairds up and they put their hands up, and as
56:43
they run out the door, the green smoke starts coming in. So you
56:45
see when the Knights come out of the door front door and the cop turns
56:52
around gets his head chopped off, gone, and another one gets stabbed into
56:59
the chest out there's blood and guts everywhere, and Rose blows out the candle
57:04
and it kind of just ends it and they're just two dead bodies on the
57:07
floor. They should just walked away like the Rose older, but they didn't
57:12
listen. So they're driving away, of course, and they're like, okay,
57:16
what's our next move now? And it's like, am I like your
57:20
secretary now? She's like, no, you're more useful than that. You
57:23
have access to ship we need. It's fine. So they're trying to figure
57:28
out the next course of plan and they as they get to this house and
57:34
they're like, Okay, there's someone here that we need and she's and they're
57:37
like, who is it? We need to find the Fisher King and they're
57:40
like the Fisher King. What the fuck is the Fisher King had to do
57:43
with any of this? And they're like, Grant's like, well, the
57:45
Fisher King. If you all didn't know the Fisher King, it is the
57:50
person that guards the entrance to the castle that holds the holy grail. If
57:59
you kill the Fisher King or if you're worthy enough, the Fisher King will
58:04
take will show you the entrance to stay castle to get set holy ground.
58:09
So that is the next obstacle that the girl I had to deal with is
58:13
fine, the Fisher King. And this Fisher King is Grand's husband or ex
58:17
husband, tea, you start figuring out, oh shit, duncan your grandfather
58:22
is the Fisher King? What that's suspicious? That's weird? Right side eye,
58:30
bombastic side eye. I'm an all offensive. Yeah, So of course
58:37
the Fisher King Grandpa knows what's going on, and he has a gun out
58:40
and he's like, I'm not stupid, We're not doing this, and he
58:45
shoots grand shoots the her ex husband through the wall. Obviously he's high on
58:52
the wall. She's like a dump and he's like, these walls are thin.
58:58
I could just kill you. It's fine. And then of course Gollahan
59:02
and one of the other nights because it's busting through the front door as they
59:08
find their way to the Fisher King, and the Fisher King lets them in,
59:15
lets him into the into the entrance to find the holy Grail, and
59:20
of course he dies. So Galahad is in that castle now and they're like,
59:25
oh shit, we need to figure out something. And Grant's trying to
59:29
think of a plan. And Grant looks Dunk and like, cool, do
59:31
you see me as a as a mother figure? Right? Because Grant his
59:37
grandmother raised him from a very young child because his mother and father, ben
59:42
Inham died, doesn't matter, she raised him. She's like, cool,
59:45
you see me as a mother figure? Right? And he's like, of
59:46
course I do. Do you see me as a father figure? I need
59:50
you to say that. Do you see me as a father figure? And
59:54
he's like, yes, I see you with you you were both and then
1:00:00
she shoots herself. She became a surrogate fisher king because the previous Fisher king
1:00:07
when they tried talking to him to let him in. He shot himself.
1:00:13
He blew his brains out because he because his ex wife. He didn't want
1:00:15
to deal with his ex wife. So Breggia was like, cool, I
1:00:17
gotta figure this shit out. So she made herself into a surrogate fisher king
1:00:22
as a placeholder who open said gates doorway. So she opens the doorway by
1:00:30
doing that, and Duncan goes in to take care of Galahad. Galahad sorry,
1:00:45
goal ahead. So when they get when he gets the Galahad, he
1:00:51
sees him presented by a bunch of ghosts and there's a woman in the back,
1:00:55
a ghostly woman holding the Holy Grail, and the Holy Grail is like
1:01:00
a big old bull with this blood kind of pouring out, and she's like
1:01:09
and he's like cool, now, possession, carry on, let me get
1:01:13
at close to them. So Galahad kind of walmze on up there as Duncan
1:01:17
tries to follow him in with a gun as he gets cornered by the knight
1:01:23
and he gets real close to the lady the Holy Grail is also looking for
1:01:30
the Holy Grail because he's like, cool, granted shot herself if I get
1:01:36
the Holy Grail. The Holy Grail can heal her and she'll live and not
1:01:39
because he's like, you're not dying because she shot herself to let him in.
1:01:45
He's like, fuck this, I'm getting the Holy Grail and you're not
1:01:46
gonna die on fucking me because you got a lot of fucking explaining to do,
1:01:50
bitch. So he goes through all of this to get said Holy Grail,
1:01:57
and he the lady holding the Holy girls asked, asked one of the
1:02:04
knights with whom do you stand? And the knight said, I march with
1:02:10
Galahad the and of course the woman, well she kills the knight because that's
1:02:20
not what you're supposed to say. And he's like, no, of course,
1:02:23
Galahads like, don't say that. You're not supposed You're not supposed to
1:02:27
say that. So Galahad was supposed to be accompanied by Perceval and on the
1:02:39
quest. Well, sorry, Perceval was supposed to be on the quest for
1:02:45
the Grail quest, not Galahad. Galahad was was with Boris Borros and Perceval.
1:02:55
Those are two different nights. So it was supposed to be a company
1:02:58
of them going to do that. Since Gallo, since it's just Galahad.
1:03:02
It was supposed to be personal. You all following again, it's convolateed you
1:03:09
on the page pack up. Mm hmmm, you want the same way thing.
1:03:15
You kind of zoned out. No, I'm no, I'm not saying
1:03:17
what well I say last, I hate it here. That's right, that's
1:03:27
what I thought. That's what I thought. So you can't zone out anymore.
1:03:32
I got you on video, bitch, so don't leave that in here.
1:03:39
We don't you look zoned out anyway? I was like, if you
1:03:45
see me listening. So we got Duncan with the Galahad who's trying to get
1:03:52
the Holy Grail, but you also need personal and Bora and Boros who's another
1:03:59
name there, And Duncan's like, I want to shoot you, and Galahad's
1:04:03
like, isn't that that's not very nightly. He's like, oh no,
1:04:08
you're right. He puts on the gun, like let's fight this the cuffs.
1:04:13
That's very nightly, right, And Galahad puts out the sword. He
1:04:15
puts to his throat, Duncan's throat, and he is like a perfect knight.
1:04:19
Now, isn't a perfect night? Then? What does the knight do?
1:04:25
And he's not perfect. It's a whole fucking bullshit conversation as they duke
1:04:31
it out because Duncan socks him in the face and he falls to the ground
1:04:38
like a little pussy, and he then goes over to the Grail and takes
1:04:44
the Holy Grail and he's just like, it's mine. He runs out with
1:04:47
it as this liquid is pouring everywhere, and he runs out of said door
1:04:53
and he realizes when he walks out, the Holy Girl vanishes into a green
1:04:57
smoke. Grant's like, that's exactly what you're supposed to do, and he's
1:05:01
like, what, what the fuck do you need? How am I supposed
1:05:04
to HELLI? And she's like, no, you need to take You need
1:05:08
to take the Holy Girl out of other world because when it vanishes, it
1:05:12
takes time for it to go back, so it delays them. So she
1:05:15
tricked them, Grand tricked Duncan going in there. She just shrupted King Arthur
1:05:20
and is trying to get the Holy Grail and ship and while then, yeah,
1:05:28
it won't pop up for a while, and Duncan's like, nah,
1:05:31
you're not dying, and she's like He's like, well, can you drive
1:05:33
drive us back to the previous building or at the bath or with the cold,
1:05:38
and he walks into the bath in a big old room, a gold
1:05:43
fashioned bathhouse, and you see a big pool of water there, and he
1:05:49
puts Grant's side and walks over to the edge of the water, and she's
1:05:53
like, what are you doing and he's like, I'm personal. Duncan's like,
1:05:56
I'm Percival, right, I'm a knight on a quest. I need
1:06:00
to retrieve a sword of healing for my beach, right, So he's like,
1:06:08
I'm playing into that. So he walks over to the leg and he
1:06:11
says that, and the lady of the lake or ladies of the lake come
1:06:15
up and they handed him EXCaliber. So we currently had Excalibur in his hand
1:06:20
now as he's skeletor looking Lady the lake hands come up and the holding the
1:06:26
blade and like, well, lone ne Excalibur. And then we get him
1:06:31
walking out with his grandmother. He's like, cool, I'm gonna take a
1:06:35
EXCaliber. I'm gonna go into other world and I'm going to force somebody to
1:06:40
heal them for me. He'll grand for me, or I must have I
1:06:44
want fucking Excalibur. That's his game plan because that's gonna work, right,
1:06:47
Not really, So he walks back into other world and walks straight up to
1:06:56
King Arthur and Elaine and Galahad as there are talking about how she's like,
1:07:04
my son's a perfect night. He's like, oh, yes, somehow he
1:07:08
did not get the Holy Grandmas. What's happening there? And of course Duncan
1:07:15
comes in interrupts them, and he by this point he figures out that Elaine
1:07:19
is really his mother. So that would mean that Galahad and Duncan are brothers,
1:07:30
half brothers, because I don't think they have the same father, or
1:07:33
they never really say they have the same father, but I'm assuming they do
1:07:36
not because of how his mother, whose real name is Mary, but took
1:07:45
on the Arthenian role of Elaine, so she had the fine Lancelots. I'm
1:07:53
assuming their two different fathers the same mother, so they're brothers. And she's
1:07:57
kind of shook by this because she's like, oh shit. She wasn't expecting
1:08:00
him to figure it out that his mother, Elaine or Mary, is Grand's
1:08:06
daughter who she got into all this mess in the first place, the whole
1:08:12
family business thing and the Mary course, Duncan's holding EXCaliber as he's horde of
1:08:20
zombies come up and he starts swinging the sword and all the zombies start flying
1:08:24
into pieces and ripping the shreds because the Excalibur is nothing the fuck with it's
1:08:29
it's not it's it's the legendary sword for a reason, a magical, legendary
1:08:32
sword for a purpose that the ladies like, here, you go fuck him
1:08:36
up. So he does, and Arthur is like, yeah, give me
1:08:45
the sword, and I'll give you the belt that hell that the belt,
1:08:48
the healing belt that he has. Give me the sword and I will give
1:08:51
you on the belt to heal your grandmother. And he's like, it's not
1:08:57
mine to give. So Arthur is not happy with that. They start doing
1:09:04
the trade because obviously he's he thinks he can just get the sword. So
1:09:15
from there, grand steps in between those two and he starts spilling the tea
1:09:21
on Galahad and they quote he is the greatest knight and his father was the
1:09:29
greatest night before him, and you see, you see, and a great
1:09:33
night too, I bet Lancelot. And Arthur's like, I had not heard
1:09:39
this warrior. Granted, he does not know a lot of things, because
1:09:42
again his mind is scrambled, and of course Lancelot and some lord. Depending
1:09:46
on the lord, he's either a French, a Frenchman, or he's Celtic,
1:09:51
which is kind of funny because we really think about it. There there's
1:09:56
a branch of the Celtic group that's also in France. The I think it's
1:10:00
the province, province state. I think it's province province of Brittany in France.
1:10:08
That all that the Celtic lineage resides because the Celts are obviously in the
1:10:13
British Isles, but also a little part of France. So Lancelot is supposedly
1:10:16
either French or Celtic, or I guess in some ways both. And She's
1:10:21
like, yeah, that French she who shagged with your wife. And Arthur's
1:10:28
like, oh, Frank laid with my queen, oh lord, and does
1:10:33
he you don't know if Frank is an old is the old term for French?
1:10:39
Is all the French were called before France. So and and Arthur's like,
1:10:45
you brought a Frank up in here, you laid with a Frenchman.
1:10:49
And of course he's not very happy about it. He's kind of pissed.
1:10:53
He's a gal has like I'm the perfect Knight. I belong with the court
1:10:56
of Arthur like a little and so they kind of throw us at his mom
1:11:04
Elaine or Mary. They're like, cool, let's kill her. Galahad's fine.
1:11:10
So Duncan gets in the way of that, and Arthur and Duncan duke
1:11:13
it out as they make their escape plan to leave are their son's army of
1:11:18
undead horses and shit. As they make their way out, they get to
1:11:21
set exit and grands like Elaine, Mary, come with me, will save
1:11:28
you, and she does not. She stays back, and we end the
1:11:33
first volume of the Final Door closing Duncan throwing the Excalibur back into the water
1:11:39
to the ladies of the Lake, returning the weapon that belonged to him,
1:11:44
and they figure out their next plan to stop King Arthur. As they're doing
1:11:49
that, the Questing Beast comes back at the very end, at the most
1:11:55
inappropriate time, does not needed, so eventually the duke it out. Duncan
1:12:00
does kill him like he's supposed to according to this story, and that's where
1:12:02
volume one ends with the death of the Questions, which means the quest is
1:12:10
in full throttle now, and then we jump to Merlin. Merlin Elaine going
1:12:16
through other world and she finds a certain somebody of magical nature. Can you
1:12:23
guess who? Chicko Merlin. She finds Merlin and she's like, oh my
1:12:34
god, she went. She goes to find Merlin and Merlin's like, you're
1:12:38
not Elaine based She's like, you're Nemu, which is the Antian law that
1:12:49
has the rower name of the Lady of like the one Lady of the Lake,
1:12:53
which is kind of weird because in this story there's multiple Ladies of the
1:12:56
Lake, which kind of goes into show goes to show you that they're multiple
1:12:59
iteration of sad stories which are represented by the ladd Lake or in this case,
1:13:03
Ladies of Like. And that is the end of volume one of Sad
1:13:11
Story. Do we have time to do one? Do we have time to
1:13:14
do the other? Or do you want to call it? Because I can
1:13:16
do two through five next week, and we can just start a little earlier
1:13:19
if need be. It's almost six, don't you have spoop? I do
1:13:29
at eight? Oh it sounds sill eight? Yeah, because I can do
1:13:34
because we can start a little earlier next week. We cauld I get two,
1:13:38
one or two next week and just I can go through two through five,
1:13:44
or I can turn this in three parts, doesn't matter. I didn't
1:13:46
want to go to the second volume if you wanted to call it quin since
1:13:49
it's almost six. I mean, if you could do volume two real quick,
1:13:57
I can do today, cool cool all words two, Volume two,
1:14:01
which is titled Old English Old English Yop. So now we jump over to
1:14:11
King Arthur with Galahad and other World and Camelot. Uh came, yes,
1:14:20
yes, say it again, Camelot, Camelot. That's how you say camelot
1:14:27
mslexic. Okay, it looks it looks one way to say it, but
1:14:30
it doesn't sound right. Camelot. I heard I heard you say it earlier,
1:14:33
and I was like, huh, I never heard of it. Yeah,
1:14:38
I'll say it wrong, but yeah, I was like I didn't even
1:14:41
yeah, yeah, I'm just like earlier, like, how were you?
1:14:49
Like, huh, I don't know much about Arthur anymore. I just slipped
1:14:54
my mind. And then you said it again. I'm like, wait,
1:14:57
you mean Camelot, camel Yeah, yeah, came out so there Camelot and
1:15:01
camel looks like a straight out of a Benstroker novel. It looks ooky,
1:15:08
spooky and not yet cheery and happy, go lucky as you thinking earth is
1:15:11
supposed to be. Yeah. No, So King Arthur being on dead skeletor
1:15:15
looking bitch as Army of undead bitches, has a Galahad there and he's like
1:15:23
cool, Oh my god, you should totally do this for me. He's
1:15:29
like, would you risk it all to sit on the siege siege that's sorry,
1:15:33
the siege perilous And he's like, yeah, siege perilous. Yes,
1:15:38
only the greatest Night could sit upon it and live. Now the siege perilous,
1:15:43
You don't know, Arthurian law, of course, is a throne that
1:15:45
is only to be sat on by the person to find the Holy Grail.
1:15:51
Now, this throne is a throne of spikes and skeletons that are impaled the
1:15:58
form this weird throughout Siege perilous and Galahads like, yeah, I can totally
1:16:01
sit on this. I got this. I'm goa be the one to find
1:16:03
the Holy Grail. Because he thinks he's top shit. So he sits in
1:16:09
the chair and he's like, there see it's clear and bright, my features
1:16:13
clear and bright, and I got this. As the siege perilous starts eating
1:16:18
his flesh. His flesh starts becoming like armor, and his flesh start becoming
1:16:26
acidic and melts into his body as his muscle and skin start melting, and
1:16:30
he's screaming in agony as his body is changing into a monster, and Arthur
1:16:41
is like, no, you are my greatest knight if you live, you
1:16:45
know if you live, So he is flesh as his flesh is melting off.
1:16:49
We jump back to Duncan as he's just finished killing a pixie because randomly
1:17:00
he's on a mission. I guess. I guess that mission dealt with killing
1:17:02
a pixie. I don't know, and he tells his grandmother about it.
1:17:06
He's like, I'm never gonna look at a tottel the same way again,
1:17:10
and I'm like, what does that mean? I kind of want to know
1:17:13
what that means now. So he's updating on his grandmother and he talks to
1:17:19
Rose, and of course Rose is telling him about his next mission on what
1:17:25
he needs to do next, because she's all up in this mess too now.
1:17:29
So shared again, they're going around solving all these problems and ship trying
1:17:32
to stop King Arthur from progressing his mission or what not to bring back England.
1:17:43
He talks about how other World's a lot bigger than initially thought, there's
1:17:47
more to it, and how the influence of it is spreading m Then they
1:17:54
jumped to uh. She tells them, oh, yeah, you need to
1:17:56
go to London and you go to the British Museum. There's something going on
1:18:00
there. And he's like, okay, I will go up there. So
1:18:04
he goes to the British Museum in London as he's holding a little Christ and
1:18:09
that kind of guides him throughout the museum to the opening that was made to
1:18:15
other worlds. He gets there, he sees a manuscript and like a with
1:18:24
a call a helmet and shield, and he's like, oh wow, this
1:18:29
is kind of interesting. Why am I here? As this smoke starts coming
1:18:32
in again and you see Galahad on his horse. Galahad is a zombiefied,
1:18:42
burned victim, armors melted into his flash. He had spikes coming out of
1:18:47
his face, like he looks straight out of hell. And he's like what
1:18:51
happened? And it's like what happened? He's like, I'm the perfect night,
1:18:56
I'm perfect. As he races up, his swords are slashing around trying
1:19:00
to kill Duncan as of course Duncan's how how like that's gonna do anything.
1:19:06
As that's happening somewhere else in the British Library. Someone breaks into the library
1:19:14
and steals a manuscript, an old manuscript. So obviously this is a diversion
1:19:21
that's happening in the museum. So Duncan and Galahad are duking it out as
1:19:28
Granny comes in and has a gun. She sets them. Doesn't work,
1:19:33
obviously, but Galahad gets pissed and he starts running towards grand as there's a
1:19:38
string that is that is stretched across a hallway, and of course he's galloping.
1:19:46
He's running and gets cut in half there's a metal wire and he disappears.
1:19:54
But obviously he's like, yeah, I'm not dead. He's not technically
1:19:57
dead. He just goes back to other world. So they take care of
1:20:00
him and they go. Rose tells them, yeah, something was stolen from
1:20:08
the British Library, a manuscript. And did they say the manuscript? The
1:20:15
manuscript was this is the British Library had mysterious breaking. They stole a manuscript.
1:20:26
I'm just describing now as getting a tracy. It doesn't Yeah, she
1:20:30
doesn't say exactly what the manuscript was. Yet then we jump back to Elaine
1:20:38
huh or Nemu. Now she is reading from this manuscript and this old English
1:20:47
or Norwegian words as this on top of this hill, and this fire starts
1:20:59
burned as this mansters coming out of the mound and it is BeO Wolf.
1:21:04
Oh yeah, Beowolf and his glory good lord yeap. So the manuscript that
1:21:15
they stole that Elaine Mary Nimu stole was Beowolf, and bail was like,
1:21:24
all the foes that BeO Wolf will be blade kissed by don. Of course
1:21:28
that's bailable for you. So now they have Berewolf with someone for some unknown
1:21:32
reason, some weird reason. Grant and Duncan go to that mound and they're
1:21:36
kind of looking around like this is weird, what's going on here? And
1:21:40
they're finding evidence that something was brought back from somewhere, but they're not quite
1:21:46
sure what. As they're kind of Grand's looking at the ritual and she's like
1:21:54
hmm. She's like, well, the manuscript was bail Wall and he's like,
1:22:01
what about Bailiff. Say, don't be draft, Duncan. Bailoff is
1:22:05
just a poem, she said, Bailiff is not real, of course.
1:22:10
She's like, yeah, Bailf's not real, of course, not woy would
1:22:14
it be real? You're gonna jump back to other world? And galhads legs
1:22:18
are missing and he's screaming bloody Murder's blood and guts are porn everywhere, and
1:22:23
Arthur's like, even your house are mighty. Arthur is impressed. King Arthur
1:22:30
is impressed. King Arthur is just now just poking fun at them at this
1:22:36
point, and he's a greatest night, greatest lungs as Galahad will eventually rebuild
1:22:45
himself. It's just gonna, he said, be screaming in agony until it
1:22:47
happens. And he's like, am I gonna die? And King Arthur's like,
1:22:54
I won't let you. You're fine, You're fine, walk it off
1:22:57
whall. He'll be fine, He would walk it all if you had legs.
1:23:02
So then they're interrupted by bo Wolf coming into the room and he's like,
1:23:09
Beowolf comes to your hall. Now there's like, I am Arthur.
1:23:13
I am the one who whips the Saxon dogs. He's like, no,
1:23:18
Saxon am I. Of course, as you know, Beololf is not Saxon
1:23:23
Anglo Saxon. He is a tale from is it Norway? Yeah, he's
1:23:33
a Viking tale, right, Yeah, it's a Northern Germanic h so kind
1:23:41
of like in that scan, the scan, the Greater Scandinavian. Yeah,
1:23:44
Germanic okay, yeah, yeah, he's from the Germanic legend. Yes.
1:23:49
It's funny because like there's a certain part of Germanmanic lore where it overlaps with
1:23:55
Scandinavians, So like a lot of stuff from Norway, from the Norwegian area
1:24:01
Sweden. Basically where like the Scandinavian folklore begins, you know, like with
1:24:08
the Vikings, the acer Vanny or the you know, Norse legends, they
1:24:14
begin to overlap with Germanic legends and in some cases Celtic as well. Yes,
1:24:25
So Beowulf and Arthur duke it out, and Merlin breaks them up and
1:24:29
saying, hey, we're on the same side here, and Arthur's like,
1:24:32
I never heard of you, Biolwulf, Are you a mighty hero? And
1:24:35
be Able is like, yeah, I kill monsters. I mean that's the
1:24:40
layman's terms of it all. But basically, and when you really think about
1:24:44
it, it's kind of fun to choose Beowulf because Beowulf and King Arthur are
1:24:47
very similar. They're very similar. Yes, they are similar. Story.
1:24:57
They have to fight monsters, they fight a battle, they have a whole
1:25:00
heroic story. They have a magical sword that's either gifted to them or loaned
1:25:04
to them, the same. But there's like similarities. And of course Merlin
1:25:13
comes into the picture again. He's like my king and he's like bare Wolf
1:25:17
will work with you or whatever, and he's like, ah, thank you,
1:25:20
bo Wolf, blah blah blah blah. Merlin has an other he has
1:25:28
his own plan going on while during all this, because he realizes that King
1:25:31
Arthur's confused, his mind's all shambled up, and Merlin's like I because King
1:25:39
Arthur is like who are you? And He's like, I'm Merlin, I'm
1:25:42
the person you can trust. I am your advisor. And I was like,
1:25:46
ah, yes, Merlin. Of course, Merlin has his own plans
1:25:50
going on in the background. He has his own reasons for doing things.
1:25:54
Of course, he was the one that got Elaine or now mimu A brought
1:26:00
back bil Wolf that way, so he has a whole plan going on behind
1:26:02
the scenes without Arthur knowing. Arthur knowing they would jump back to Duncan and
1:26:09
Graham as they finish up their investigation with figuring out what's going on there with
1:26:15
the mound that the that his mother summoned Bale Wolf from, and his mother
1:26:23
is watching them from a tree as she is throwing asking questions and she's throwing
1:26:31
out these sticks to tray answers some magical shiit. So she's like, okay,
1:26:44
it's like she She's like, they leave and she throws the sticks and
1:26:46
the sixth form good await my command and she's like, well about Galahad and
1:26:51
whoever saw is like he is well, And I'm assuming you can assume that
1:26:56
she's talking to Merlin m And from there they drive back, they communicate,
1:27:01
They talk to Rose that she's doing her scry and ship trying to figure out
1:27:06
the next move. And then they find when she's scrying, one of the
1:27:15
little needles that she used in the scribe with lands on the road that Duncan
1:27:19
and Grant are on currently m and they're like, guys, uh, something's
1:27:26
happening right where you're at And they're like what And they look out and Beowulf
1:27:30
has flow from the sky. It lands on their car and wraps off the
1:27:34
roof of the car as Beowolf's trying to kill them because Beoolf thinks that gran
1:27:41
and Duncan are Can you guess who he thinks they are? M Can you
1:27:47
guess? Do you guess? Do you know the story of Biololf? I
1:27:56
mean, off the top of my head, Grendel and his mom, Grendela,
1:28:00
Grindall's mother. Yes, that is correct. So Bywell thinks that he's
1:28:02
fighting Grindle and his mother without really realizing that, oh no, you're just
1:28:08
fighting two no more people or monster hunters. So he rips off the roof
1:28:14
of the car and they're freaking the hell out, and of course bullets are
1:28:18
not working on this guy at all, of course, like why would they.
1:28:24
So they're fighting off as they're trying to not crash the car, but
1:28:28
they're like fuck it. Duncan flips the car and flips him off as the
1:28:32
car just down the road flips and it's it's it's the car's gone. It's
1:28:40
useless. Now they both live from the car crash and they try to get
1:28:44
away from Balo Wolf and after a altercation with Balo Wolf, eventually Graham kills
1:28:55
him with explosives. Them up blows them to a million pieces. He's dead.
1:29:02
BeO Wolf is now gone, and now Grant and Duncan are just like,
1:29:05
well, shit, Grant, it's kind of funny. Grant's like,
1:29:10
damn, fuck me. I guess BeO Wolf is real because she didn't think
1:29:13
he was. Then we jumped back to the nursing home that Grant's supposed to
1:29:21
be at. So Duncan takes its grandmother back to the nursing home, and
1:29:28
as their at said nursing home, we jumped back to Nimu or Elaine or
1:29:35
Mary, depending on which name you're just going by at that moment, because
1:29:39
she's filling a role for this lord on purpose to fill up this whole story
1:29:44
and bullshit. She talks to Merlin, and Merlin's like, we got a
1:29:47
plan, just keep up to the plan. Everything's gucchiet, and he acknowledges
1:29:54
that they killed the hero. They killed Beowulf, And we jump back to
1:30:01
the what we call it a nursing home as Grant's chilling with the old people,
1:30:14
and we catch like Duncan going back home. Finally, sleeping Rose is
1:30:17
doing her own thing. As she's scrying. Rose is scrying. Everything goes
1:30:25
to the nursing home. So she's like, oh shit, something's gonna happy
1:30:29
at that nursing house. We see one of the gardeners of said nursing home
1:30:34
get attacked by Grendel. Grendel. Of course, of course it's gonna be
1:30:42
Grendel, right, So Grendel's this big green monster with sharp teeth, kind
1:30:45
of a hulk looking thing, and he's like Grendel's hungry, or Grendel hungers
1:30:50
as he rips his Manda, shreds, rubs his head off, and then
1:30:55
eats him. And he's trying to find Duncan's trying to get a ride to
1:31:02
his grandmother's place, but of course his car is destroyed, but he can't
1:31:06
seem to get a ride there. Corners a taxi driver, and he's like,
1:31:12
you know what this works for. My grandmother points a guy in and
1:31:14
so you're gonna drive me. You're gonna train where I need to go.
1:31:17
So he's on his way driving as Grendel busts into the front door of the
1:31:25
nursing house, killing off everybody. They're not killing off everybody, but scaring
1:31:30
the shit of everyone, and Bridge is like, I need to take care
1:31:33
of the situation before it gets bad as Duncan and the taxi driver are driving
1:31:39
straight there. Old people are hiding. Grendel's destroying the place. The taxi
1:31:45
driver and Duncan get there and they do fight off them, with grand taking
1:31:55
a hot thing of oil throws that Grendel burns his face, blinds him and
1:32:00
then when Duncan gets there between him and everyone else, cops come up as
1:32:04
well. They die. Of course. Eventually they do kill Grendel, but
1:32:12
the taxi driver that came with them dies in the process of Grendall's death.
1:32:15
Unfortunately, it's grousive. It's gross. I feel bad for the taxi driver
1:32:19
because he's trying to go home to his wife family, but he died.
1:32:24
It's fine. It's not fine, but you know, it's whatever. And
1:32:29
during all this, we jump back to Berlin as he's getting a sewing needle
1:32:31
and starts sewing. Got a head back together. All this is happening,
1:32:36
Grendel does die again, stab in the throat and his head blows up and
1:32:42
shit, and then we jump to Grendel's mother. Grendel's mother comes and attacks
1:32:49
Duncan, and Duncan says everyone and Grendall's mother starts running all off to a
1:33:00
swamp or a marsh and between. As that is all happening, Duncan's chasing
1:33:06
after Grendall's mother, and his actual mother comes up and says, hey,
1:33:12
I will help you. Just go out, dive into the dive into the
1:33:15
marsh, into the swamp that Grendall's mother dive into. I will continue reading
1:33:21
the manuscript and you will be fine. Basically, he ends up becoming a
1:33:28
surrogate Beowolf. So as she's reading and she's fighting Duncan's fighting Grendall's mother and
1:33:33
the swamp, he almost dies, and of course she's reading the story.
1:33:38
She finishes it and Grahad comes up and she's like, what'd you read because
1:33:42
it's not in English, and she's like, basically she is telling the rest
1:33:45
of the sort of Balo wolf. BeO Wolf dies in the swamp, almost
1:33:48
eyes to Grendall's mother as a sword comes up to his hands and comes back
1:33:54
to life and it kills Grendall's mother. So that basically is what happened,
1:34:00
is that he almost dies. The lady of the lake comes up gives him
1:34:06
EXCaliber again is that here you go? And he used his excalibur to kill
1:34:12
Grindall's mother nice, which is kind of funny because technically BeO Wolf does not
1:34:18
have the sword. His sword is completely different. It's his name. The
1:34:23
sword's name starts with an H. Crothgar I think is the name. Yeah
1:34:30
that now Rothgar is the king anyway, his sword's name is completely different.
1:34:35
It's different name. But in this place, since Duncan's being a fake,
1:34:42
BeO Wolf sargate BeO Wolf. His sword is Excalibur, so he uses that
1:34:46
to kill Grendall's mother, and after he finally kills her, he everything kind
1:34:56
of just comes to an end pretty much like they try to come events Elaine
1:35:01
to come back, but she's like, no, I'm filling the role.
1:35:03
I got a jump too, So she leaves them, and Rose and Duncan
1:35:11
relationship blossoms. They have a kiss on panel, and then we jump over
1:35:16
to Elaine and Merlin as they talk more about their plan and how Grendel's slowly
1:35:21
getting better, but of course he lost both his legs and shit, so
1:35:27
it's going to take a hot minute. She's like, Merlin's like, yo,
1:35:30
that's fine, And after that we jump over to other worlds where we
1:35:39
see King Arthur and Merlin and Merlin is like the plants in motion. To
1:35:44
find the Grail. We need Perceval Galahad and Boroughs now Boroughs. Since we're
1:35:53
already there, where is you do? I did not actually do that.
1:35:58
When we look that up for it pretty quick they can kind of give you
1:36:01
a description of what Borroughs is. Borrows is the name of his name of
1:36:06
two knights, and they need lord an elder any younger. The two appear
1:36:11
in the thirteenth century Lancelot Grail romance story. They got Borrows the elder and
1:36:17
Borrows the younger. These are two knights. We jumped to the British government.
1:36:26
The British government knows about all this going on, and that's how they
1:36:30
get around the police. They tell the police this is business dealing with the
1:36:34
federal the British government, so they kind of just lay them alone. It's
1:36:38
how they've been getting around doing all this shit. So the government, the
1:36:41
Parliament knows about all this. Prime Minister knows because it's then their constitution about
1:36:45
all this shit. So they've been cleaning up the mess after them. And
1:36:50
we come to the Prime Minister talking about all this shit. As he appears
1:36:55
to he has a box in his hand and he opens the box. He's
1:36:59
like, that's with the box some ship. He opens it and Merlin comes
1:37:02
up and Merlin's like, not Borroughs, but close enough, and he takes
1:37:09
the Prime Minister. And that is the end of volume two of the Once
1:37:15
in Future story. Yeah, so they have their Galahad, they have their
1:37:21
Percival, and now they need the Boroughs, which is the I guess it
1:37:27
is going to be the Prime Minister. I don't know if they're going to
1:37:29
do Borrows the Elder or Borrows the Younger, or both of them, because
1:37:33
Borrows the Younger is the son of is the son of his Borrows the Elder's
1:37:43
brother. Yeah, yeah, so I don't know if they're going after they're
1:37:48
gonna have need both or they're gonna need one of them, but either way,
1:37:53
the god borrows. So yeah, so that'd be that's the end of
1:37:58
the first two volumes. I going to do a rating system for the first
1:38:01
two volumes. I'll save that for next week. We do part two volumes
1:38:05
three through five to keep the finish out the story. So final thoughts,
1:38:12
checkoub on anything. It sounds like a very interesting story and I'm starting to
1:38:17
see a trend because like, of course, like first volume, we had
1:38:21
the introduction of King Arthur, and he's he's gonna be a bad guy.
1:38:27
He's the problem. Yeah, he's the problem. He doesn't realized he's the
1:38:30
problem. He's doing his job, but yeah, he's the reason for all
1:38:34
the dark the dark times of Breton and Ship. Yeah. So but now
1:38:43
I'm starting to see a trend because now they've introduced Boe Wolf in volume two,
1:38:47
So I'm sorry, yeah, they killed him off, and now I'm
1:38:51
just like, what more are we going to see coming after this? So
1:38:59
are we gonna seeing other like heroic figures that are actually oh like they're not
1:39:04
heroes, they're the bad guys, they're the possibly possibly So I'm yeah,
1:39:12
I'm you are I know, I know you already know because you've read it.
1:39:15
But yeah, so but I'm I'm gonna they're probably gonna throw out like
1:39:19
other Arthurian esque kind of figures. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but you
1:39:32
know, yeah, go on. Sorry, I was gonna say, i'd
1:39:40
say I'll give it a read, but my reading list is so long right
1:39:44
now that it's gonna be ages before we even get to that. Like,
1:39:49
right now, I am still reading I'm almost done with book four of The
1:39:54
Wheel of Time and I just bought book five, and you're gonna dive into
1:39:59
five, got it? Yeah, I'm gonna just well, I'm trying to
1:40:01
get The Wheel of Time has fourteen books, and like I'm trying to like
1:40:08
I'm just trying to get through them all, Like I mean, I'm enjoying
1:40:11
the story so far. Like the thing the thing about the story is is
1:40:15
that like it starts off interesting, Like each book starts off like interesting,
1:40:18
okay, cool, like kind of like puts like a little something for you,
1:40:23
you know, like, Okay, this is this interesting more okay,
1:40:27
Like oh it enhance at what we're gonna be dealing with throughout the rest of
1:40:30
the book, okay. And then like the middle half of the book kind
1:40:31
of drags because there's just a lot of setting and world building and like like,
1:40:39
okay, this is the setting of what like these character this group of
1:40:42
characters are gonna be set in this other group and then eventually they're all gonna
1:40:45
like it's all gonna come together and it starts picking up towards the end,
1:40:50
and that's what it's doing. Like right now where I'm at, like I
1:40:54
have one hundred pages. I have like less than one hundred pages left in
1:40:57
the book, so it's gonna be like it's and it's picking up. I'm
1:41:00
like like it's like I'm like getting so like engross, Like Okay, what's
1:41:06
gonna happen, what's gonna happen next? Like bookends? Fuck next book?
1:41:12
Yeah? So yeah, And like I was curious because I've I've now since
1:41:19
I've watched the show already, like I got I need to watch season one
1:41:23
of the Wheel of Time again because I really because I haven't. I watched
1:41:27
it years ago, and I'm realizing, oh fuck, I've I forgot a
1:41:31
lot of what they did in the first in the first season, and I
1:41:35
gotta watch it again because we're gonna review book one and two of a Wheel
1:41:40
of Time. Yes, yes we are. Yeah. So when we're done
1:41:45
with your next few books, uh so after three four volume three, four
1:41:50
and five, what other book did you want to read? Or was that
1:41:53
it? So I've got next week of the volumes three, four and five
1:41:59
of It's the Future of course. The week after that, i want to
1:42:02
do American Gods finally, and then after that we'll jump back to we'll do
1:42:11
something for both of us Godzilla, okay, and then after god then after
1:42:17
Godzilla, well we can do the week we'll go back and we'll start doing
1:42:24
well, well, back and forth from that point, we can we can
1:42:27
go ahead and just do we can just go ahead and do book one and
1:42:30
two of the Wheel of Time after Godzilla. Yeah, Yeah, we can
1:42:33
just go ahead and we'll do book one first, and then next week we'll
1:42:38
do book two. Yeah, and then from there we'll just go like back
1:42:42
and forth. If we have books or I can do a few more,
1:42:45
because I have a couple, have a I have a some books that I
1:42:47
haven't gone over yet too, So yeah, and now we got video stuff,
1:42:54
and I go, you see this, applaud future Devin because he probably
1:43:00
sat there on the screen like, what the fuck am I going to do
1:43:01
with this? How am I gonna make it look pretty? What editing buffoonery
1:43:08
am I going to unfold? So I'm sure you're gonna come up with something
1:43:14
good. I know I will, but I have sir, Yeah, So
1:43:25
definitely these are definitely this is definitely an interesting story and I can't wait to
1:43:29
see So is it just five volumes? Five volumes for the whole complete story
1:43:32
five volumes thirty issues. Yeah, all right, because I was thinking,
1:43:39
like, man volunteers, it seemed like you got through volume two really quick,
1:43:43
Flume. There's a lot more action than the volume one because volume one
1:43:45
is all of the course, the groundwork a place of what's happening in the
1:43:49
