• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Oh I shouldn't be seeing this.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: There's a plinth in the middle, marble plinth that is bare,
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: and a shining brown staff intricately carved with a green
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: orb on top resting its head. In the corner, a
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: desk with candles, sigils, chains. This is Arthur's room. Oh yeah,
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: I got a couple of chairs over there, fold a bolt,
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: you can.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Unfold him off the wall. Thank you.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: Let me see here, he let me see. He goes
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: over to the wall and he pulls a curtain off
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: of an old chalkboard and he wheels it out. Okay,
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: get this right here and see if I got chalk anywhere.
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: Jamir's just gonna summon a flight star and just sit
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: on it casually now that since I already showed it
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: my powers down below, flying away from page.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: He it takes him a minute to realize. He's like
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: looking at the chalkboard and cluttering in his desk, looking
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: for chalk and the eraser and where's that eraser? He
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: turns around. Who he might be a little magic there?
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: Love to know more? Yeah, once Jason gets back. Jeez,
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: So I'm Arthur, you know I Jason's kind of my.
• 21:27
  Speaker 9: Well it says, he says, you're like he's dead. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 21:31
  Speaker 9: that's nice. I adopted him. I told him he didn't
• 21:34
  Speaker 9: need to call me dad or nothing. But I adopted
• 21:37
  Speaker 9: him when he was you know, fourteen or fifteen or something.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Wow, that's amazing.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: He's a good kid. He's an amazing kid. He needed
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: a place, you know, place that felt comfortable.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: Well, he told us you were just a stranger that
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: we hadn't met yet.
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: So hey, that's true. Nice to think about it.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that is true.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: If you had met me before tonight, I would have
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: been a stranger. But know that you hadn't met. But
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: now we've met. But I was a stranger before we'd met.
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: It makes so much sense.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: I come in through the door, bright red, cool, cool
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: you all right there, buddy, Yep?
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: Normal book stuff?
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: You guys is going crazy?
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: Phantom is Jason? All right? Nothing? Nothing gets me going
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: like looking for books late at night?
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: You know me?
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: Are you guys kissings? What were you kissing?
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: Were you kissing? No, No, we weren't kissing. I tell
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: you if they were kissing, shut up. Okay, what's up? Okay, guys,
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: thank you, thank you, Jamir, I mean friend, dude, Fuck,
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: that's Jesus, it's okay.
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: Pops off of his flight story and it's like, I
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: come here. We said, I'm clearly covering my identity. Is
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: this what you do? Do you just tell our names
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: to everyone? Is this what you do?
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: It's just Arthur. He's just a stranger that you haven't
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: met yet, do we have to kill him after he
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: tells us he's gonna die in an hour? Probably, I'm
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: not gonna die. I'm not gonna tell anyone. I promise
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: I can make.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: Him forget that.
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: Jason said that, Rachel, if you.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: Want to probably forget, No, do the thing.
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: Zap is brain, Okay, Ronnie, No, Ronnie, don't, zap is brain.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: I'm just removing. I'm just moving right.
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: It's your fault, Jason.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: You did this, sir. I'm gonna erase my friend's name
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: from your brain.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 23:46
  Speaker 5: I close my eyes and then I open them because
• 23:50
  Speaker 5: I have to see.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: Where the neural pathways are to erase that memory.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: All right, roll a knowledge check. This is a small memory.
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: I'm rolling an average check.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: Madden Control Electricity.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: I rolled one. You go into Arthur's defense. Arthur puts
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: up a very weak mental defense.
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: Shout out to the elderly. We're big fans of the older.
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: This is not represent This representative that we feel about
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: the elderly.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: Here's what happens. Arthur seems as though he's offering you
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: the fact that he heard Jimmyer's name. Yeah, and you
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: wipe that away. He does seem to have some powerful
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: control over what's happening in his mind.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: Respect All right, it's done.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: Okay, where was I? There's old magic? Well, no magic.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: You guys want to know about magic? Yeah, yes, yes,
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: please that there's old magic and there's new magic. Old magic.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: It is also called realm magic. So if you just
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: if you hear old magic or realm magic, it's all
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: the same. Okay, here's how the story goes. The first
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: souls that passed into the after found that there was nothing,
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: and yet they still had themselves. And here's what I
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: was made to memorize. Wise Eve said that those who
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: did great wickedness and great good on earth should be judged,
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: and thus she shaped a place of waiting called justice,
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: where she judged the fate of their life in the after.
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: And then generous Manu said those that lived well on
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: earth should be rewarded with a place of joy and peace,
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: and shaped a place of waiting called Elysium or heaven.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: Then lustful and jubilous Asker said, those who care not
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: of good or ill, but only passion and creation should
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: have a place where all of their desires are fulfilled.
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: If you judge it so, Wise Eve, and thus ask
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: your shape to place of waiting where the deepest desires
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: of creatives and the passionate were fulfilled. It is said
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: that Eve was cautious in whom she sent there. Then
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Shrewd Lilith said those who lived in wickedness and did
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: harm to others should find punishment in their time in
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: the after, and thus shaped a place of waiting where
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: souls were punished for the extent of their wickedness. This
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: has been called hell or Hades. And finally, kind Pandora said,
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: souls should not have to wait forever, if they desire
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: it not, I will ferry them beyond our shapes, unto oblivion,
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: or without their minds, back to the beginning. And thus
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: Pandora shaped a mighty vessel named the Runnel, with which
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: she bore souls through the void into annihilation or back
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: to the spirit. So then the types of magic drawl
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: from those realms. Those are the realms created by the
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: first souls in the after, And that there are languages
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: and runes that line up with each realm. And you
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: can learn that. There are times, however, when magic rears
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: its head without the knowledge, without the runes, without the language,
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: just Arthur pulls out an old book, leather bound read Jason,
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: where did you get this? Oh? Uh?
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: I look over chamir uh me. I they borrowed it
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: from your grandma's library. I'm just used to borrowing books.
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: It's the cultural thing about the library, and I was
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: gonna return it. I just Arthur knows about this kind
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: of stuff. And yeah, sorry, if you need.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: To erase my memory again after I tell you this, though,
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: you remember that your memory was erased. Yeah, we talked
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: about it, but I don't remember what it was.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: I didn't erase the fact that we erased it, just
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: to erase.
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: Relate, erase the thing. I don't remember anymore. Damn. Okay,
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: So if you need to do that again, that's fine,
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: But let me talk for a second. This book he
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: opens and flips through it. It is this bit of
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: a sad tale. Someone's searching and finding a lot, but
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: not the right bits and pieces. See that this spell
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: he points to a series of runs. See these runes
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: are from the realm of justice, Eve's realm. But then
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: these runs in the same spell are from the realm
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: of punishment Lili's realm, And the spells at times overlap. Yes,
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: but the runes and the languages must be said in order.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: So this person, though trying so desperately to know and
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: to work and learn magic, they didn't have a teacher
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: who knew the who knew what to tell them, knew
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: the realms. So you can use these spets, Yeah, you
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: can read it. Yeah, I can read some of it. Okay,
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: that's old magic and new magic I know less about.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: But that's the most I know about. How do I
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: say that I can do some new magic, which I'm
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: about to explain new magic, I know less about how
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: it works, more about the runic language of some new magic.
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: Here's what I'm trying to say. New magic is called
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: new not because of chronology. Some new magic is older
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: than humanity, but it's new because we've learned about it
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: more recently. And the person that taught me was a
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: practitioner of annihilation magic. And so the I really only
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: know the five new magics by name, Balance, Discord, Annihilation, Spirit,
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: and Star.
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: At the mention of Star, Jamir will hover a little
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: higher on his flight Star and just lead a little forward.
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: And Arthur, if you don't mind me asking who taught
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: you annihilation magic?
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: He points to Jason he points to you, I taught
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: you no, no, you fucked. I fucked everywhere. He points
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: to you. Jason. Not long ago, Jason was shot and killed.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: In that book in your chest was the spell book
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: of the hero that called himself spellbook. Oh shit, And
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: it is a tone of annihilation. Maybe that's why I
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: destroy so many things. This is why I'm scared about
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: what's in you.
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: Well, okay, and you came into the possession spell books,
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: spell book, biz book. I point to my chest because
• 32:46
  Speaker 4: he taught you magic.
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: Yes, and that's all I'll say about spell book. At this.
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: Jamir will'll pull his hood down of staring at Arthur,
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: trying to gauge his reaction. If any and Jamir, underneath
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: his hoodie is wearing the first leather mask of ever wing.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: Make a sense check, Jamir, hold on everybody.
• 33:21
  Speaker 5: I would also, in light of the recent sentences spoken
• 33:25
  Speaker 5: by Arthur, do a scan to see what his state
• 33:28
  Speaker 5: is like. Why is he being cagey about this one thing?
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: You can also roll then against this stuff with your scan.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: Stand back for my mighty D.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: Six three seven? What the seven's today?
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: I rolled seven? Dang, Jamir, You look at Arthur. He's
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: old you wonder if there'll be some sort of reaction
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: on his face. He looks at you pretty stone cold.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Quantu you scan, I'll say, I think, on that close
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: of failure, do sense a hint of familiarity run through him?
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: But his face is blank. So he holds up the
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: spell book of the broken spell Book of Jimi Or's Grandma.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: I give this back to you. It's yours.
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm still like half leaning have sitting on my
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: flight star and I'll kind of have it hover closer.
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: And I'll take it from him.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: So you're saying, the person who wrote that one did
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: it incorrectly.
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, there's a lot. I mean everything's in here.
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: There's bits, there's annihilation bits, justice bits, there's punishment bits.
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: It's all kinds of random, jumbled up. Again, some of
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: the spells would make sense if you, you know, put
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: them all in a single language.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: But what about what about Jason? Is he going to be? Okay?
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: I really do not know, and I worry about it.
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: I'm doing what I can. He kind of gestures to
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: the room around you to study. I'm not The great
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: old wizards are gone. There's no one left who knows
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: this kind of stuff. At least not here in New Babbel,
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: maybe out there in the world. I'm trying to learn.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: I'm trying. That's why why I got the book in
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: the first place, trying to learn.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, annihilation sounds I mean that sounds pretty bad.
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: It's well, the book saved my life, so it can't
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: be all bad. That's true, and there's bad. You're still here, Yeah,
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: that's good. And if annihilating bad stuff, that's something. Yeah,
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: I guess Arthur. The reason we were I know you
• 36:07
  Speaker 4: don't want to talk about Spellbook, but we were looking
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: for information because I know we want to. There's no
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: roadmap for us. There's no blueprint for how to operate
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: with this kind of power. So we just wanted to
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: know from people who maybe came before.
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: The story of Spellbook is a tragic one. And perhaps yep,
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: you said you'd say no more about it. So yeah,
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: but but perhaps I will come to a place where
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: I can. But the pain is close to me. Would you,
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: if it's too hard to say, would you let my
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: friend reach in?
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: Perhaps it's not a no, but I won't do it
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: without a yes. Yes, thank you, bye am. I've only
• 37:06
  Speaker 5: done this with sharing me before, so I think I
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: know how to do it.
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: Is it still? Yes?
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes, okay, yeah, she successfully made me go blind.
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: For a little bit.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: That's not what I'm talking about.
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: Okay, Okay, before, I you know, touched four heads. So
• 37:28
  Speaker 5: if that's okay, just walk right in front of him.
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: Yes, and I'll try. I'll try to help. He goes
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: and grabs the staff off the wall.
• 37:38
  Speaker 5: And you know, maybe so he doesn't have to use words,
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: and yeah, I don't have to interpret. I just hold
• 37:44
  Speaker 5: out my hands to Jason Engineer. Thanks, all right, I'll
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: see if I can bring you in with me, and
• 37:50
  Speaker 5: I I pull up my abola clava so I can
• 37:54
  Speaker 5: actually touch day skin to human skin.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: This will be a branching power, an attempt to go
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: grab a memory out of someone else's head and show
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: it to other people. I guess you can do that
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: with electricity. Probably, let's do it.
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's how electricity works at my house.
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: It's all running through us. Now we're all touching.
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: It's electric because you're an EVO. It's just a single
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: godly check. And so I'm rolling a D twenty and
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: a D four. Okay, would someone please roll Arthur's magic die. Gosh, Jason,
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: it sounds like something you should do. Arthur's magic dye
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: is a D eight, so he's gonna help Quanta with this.
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: Okay, great, So you're.
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: Rolling knowledge okay, plus control, electricity.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: Scanned scanned it.
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: I mean they're both two fours, but like scan it
• 38:51
  Speaker 5: makes more sense snaptic scan.
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: Okay. I rolled a one on my D six.
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: Arthur got a seven on his magic die.
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: And one on my four. That's a cut.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: Nine total nothing. I rolled a five on my D
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: twenty and I rolled a four on my D four.
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: I rolled nine. There nothing we can do to help, right,
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: I can't do nothing to help that. Both of you
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: are magic kids. Yeah, magic kids. Wait, don't check what
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: I just said. There's nothing I could do? Yeah, I
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: mean I feel like the book the books all can I?
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah? Can I add some paper cents to this juice?
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: I could kind of charge up some magical energy in
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: my hands and try to we're all holding hands, send
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: good energy out and not try to form form it
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: into a blast.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: All right, here's what I'm gonna do. I think the
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: two of you have only used the magic within you
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: for violence and not this kind of thing. Yes, I
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: think I'm gonna take that close fail and you're you're
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: gonna see why in a minute. Here's what happens. You
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: all close your eyes, holding hands Quanta, your head on
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: Arthur's forehead.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: Okay, you ready?
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: You all open your eyes back in time on the
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: day that the hero known as Spellbook gave his life
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: to save millions.
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: Whoa Everything in this memory is safe.
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: Your tone, Jason, you open your eyes, not as Jason.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: You look down, a wooden staff in your hand with
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: the green orb on top, the book that resides in
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: Jason's chest in your hand, a hood and a cloak
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: falling behind you. Jimir, you open your eyes. You see
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: first a screen with a hood, and past that sharp
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: eye slits whow. Everything you think channels through your body
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: to reacting to something, and you feel stiff metal wings
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: on your back, claws on your hands, though you're the
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: everwing of the Quanta. You open your eyes, you look down.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: You also have a flowing cape, a helm with a
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: white fin streaking over the top of your head, a
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: blade attached to your arm. You feel your body. No
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: one else can see it, but you're a large day
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: man under armor. Derek. A woman runs up to you.
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: She has no clothes, her body is covered in fire.
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: She has a black bandana around her head. In her
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: hands are two chains that she drags behind her on
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: the ground with broken manacles. She looks at three of you. Spellbook,
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: Bright Blade, Everwing. War Hero has come to force the
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: last Evos on the space barge. We have to stop her.
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: Just as just as she says this, the sound barrier
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: breaks above you, a crack in the sky, and a
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: woman streaks through the air and lands an enormou miss
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: punch to the hero called war Hero, and they both
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: slamed into a building that starts falling down around here.
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: You all come out of this vision.
• 43:37
  Speaker 6: M h.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: It didn't quite work. Huh almost? I felt that, did
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: you guys felt that right? Yeah?
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah yeah? I was. We we were all.
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: Dirk right, I was spelling. I was and I tapped
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: my leather.
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: Oh you were? You were the other two?
• 44:04
  Speaker 4: Jason Knuds, I'm why am I so hungry?
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: Hey? This is We'll try again. We'll try again, We'll
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: go back, We'll try again, and and you'll get more
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: of it. I'm tired. I'm tired me too. That was
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: of the magic.
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: I could really use some Grimace King right now.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: After this, But any other questions about magic, I don't
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: even know what to ask that.
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: I mean, I feel like you gave us information and
• 44:38
  Speaker 5: now I know less than I did before.
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: Well I know a little bit about the new magics.
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: The old magics make the most sense to me, Like
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: I said, Yeah, souls of the first who died created
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: these realms, and then we can draw power from those
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: realms through like rudes and shit. Yeah okay, but sometimes
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: it just kind of happens. Sometimes it just happened, like
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: it happened to Jason. But that's a bad example, because
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: that's a new magic. Could I understand the premise though?
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: Okay, okay, could it just happened to a day person?
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: I don't. I don't see why not?
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: What did? What did these these five? Is there anything
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: about what they look like?
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: Only what what is in mythology? There are all characters
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: of mythology.
• 45:25
  Speaker 5: Right right, So like, but if like somebody you know,
• 45:31
  Speaker 5: must like draw them or like meet them, would they
• 45:35
  Speaker 5: you know?
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: Is there anything about what they look like?
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: That was never the point of these tales?
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: Sure, yeah, right, I have.
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: No information about that. But the new magics that balance
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: in discord make a little bit of sense to me?
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: Is this this is how it was told to me.
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: Balance is created when two things that are too different
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: things become one thing. There's a magic in that. You know,
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: fifty states is one nation. That's maybe a bad example.
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: Two people get married, they become one one thing, one marriage,
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: one one body or three yeah whatever, Yeah, but there's
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: like magic in that. But then when that breaks, there's
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: discord is created. So those energies have been building and
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: building for so long, and those are those again, they're
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: called new magic. That makes more sense to me because
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: that is a consequence of our humanity.
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 46:49
  Speaker 4: Let me let me stop you here for a second. Okay,
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: not that I don't love a good theory of magic.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: I do.
• 46:58
  Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, look no, but no one loves a
• 47:01
  Speaker 4: good theory of magic more than me. You know, spells.
• 47:05
  Speaker 4: We're trying to protect this city. I don't want to
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: destroy it. Can you teach us any magic that would help?
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: Like?
• 47:13
  Speaker 4: Is there protection magic? Is there something we can do
• 47:15
  Speaker 4: to to protect ourselves or people? I promised Paige I'd
• 47:22
  Speaker 4: protect you that we were safe.
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: Jason, I am so old. Wait what in my seeking
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: out to do the same I have brought great ruin
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: upon you. No, that's not.
• 47:50
  Speaker 4: Look before all this happened before I got this book
• 47:54
  Speaker 4: in my chest and met these two. It's like you
• 47:59
  Speaker 4: were saying, I whole, I've never felt more normal than now.
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: Whenever I ever told you you need to be normal, Jason,
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: I assumed you didn't. Because it's a losing battle for me.
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: Can confirm respectfully, Yes.
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: I've never been normal. You've never been normal, and magic's
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: not going to fix that. Magic is brought ruin to
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: the people I love the most.
• 48:35
  Speaker 4: Well, respectfully, we're going to fuck around with it, and
• 48:44
  Speaker 4: I think it would be better if we had some
• 48:49
  Speaker 4: instruction or guidance. Unless you just want I point to
• 48:55
  Speaker 4: my chest, Annihilation magic here to take both hands on
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: the wheel and do what is gonna happen.
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: The only magic I know how to do is from
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: that book, and the only magic I'm interested in learning
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: is to get it out of you while maintaining your life. Well,
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: I don't I don't want it out of me. Oh okay, okay,
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: you're gonna fuck around with magic, You're damn right, and
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna fuck around with getting that out of you.
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: Then we'll all fuck around and to find out.
• 49:39
  Speaker 3: Damn right, Well, while you guys are doing that, this
• 49:43
  Speaker 3: has been very helpful, sir. Do you have any kind
• 49:47
  Speaker 3: of do you have any kind of grammar or dictionary
• 49:53
  Speaker 3: for this rutic language accessing these magics that you know
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: a guy like me per se could read and learn
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: more about this stuff by themselves if they had their
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: own magical text on hand.
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, he gestures to the books behind him. These
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: are all tomes of spells and things. I don't read them.
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: All I can, and I know a rune here or there.
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: What magic do you believe? Star magic? Star magic? Oh?
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: That is unique one. There are no texts on stars.
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: Damn it, I'm sorry it is. The old magics have
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: pretty clear runic systems, the new ones not so much.
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: Balance discord annihilation. Do Spirit and star are the two
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: magics that I and it seemed like the magic community
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: knew the least about.
• 50:56
  Speaker 4: All Right, wait a minute, what we saw when we
• 51:01
  Speaker 4: went into your brain was that that wasn't your Was
• 51:08
  Speaker 4: that your memory?
• 51:09
  Speaker 5: Uh?
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: No? Okay, okay, are.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: You at all?
• 51:20
  Speaker 2: Go ahead and roll a sense chick.
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: Seven two also too, I added my scan got it?
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: This is an average check. I rolled an.
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: Eight dang dang ding dang dang do.
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I think your characters decide whether to believe Arthur
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: or not in this moment.
• 51:41
  Speaker 5: I mean, we were all inside someone else out. Yeah,
• 51:47
  Speaker 5: how does that work? I guess I'm just wondering.
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: We know.
• 51:52
  Speaker 4: One of those people is still what if one of
• 51:58
  Speaker 4: the people from that memory, whoever's it was, Yeah, what
• 52:02
  Speaker 4: if they were just like chilling in like a basement
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: in a place that we know and have access to. Hypothetically,
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: that would be crazy. That would be crazy. It's just
• 52:16
  Speaker 4: a crazy hypothetical, right, But there, I should say there's
• 52:21
  Speaker 4: a lot there. There was a lot going on there.
• 52:23
  Speaker 4: When when you.
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: Quanta Quanta, when you did what you tried to do,
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: I don't know what kind of magic you have access to.
• 52:34
  Speaker 2: And I was trying to help with this, and you
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: eat gestures to his staff. Uh, And this is a
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: creation a tool of creation magic, so you can imbue
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: magics into certain things. I didn't do that I found
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: you know, this is part of my family's history. And
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: so I don't know. I don't know if I was
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: showing you my memory or just what you're supposed to
• 52:57
  Speaker 2: see based on the magics I'm a bad like I'm
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: not a good teacher for this. I'm no, no, no,
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: this is helpful. I was ill something. I wasn't a mage.
• 53:09
  Speaker 5: I just I mean, I'm learning a lot. I just
• 53:15
  Speaker 5: feel like not enough to know what to ask. Yeah,
• 53:18
  Speaker 5: it's all so new and strange.
• 53:22
  Speaker 4: Let's maybe let's let Arthur rest and we'll maybe try
• 53:27
  Speaker 4: this again later.
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't I don't want to try to do
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: that again right now. Thanks Arthur, Thank you, sir, thank you.
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: It's good to meet the both of you.
• 53:37
  Speaker 3: And we've heard a lot of great things about you,
• 53:41
  Speaker 3: so it's.
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: Nice to meet you too. But we were never here obviously,
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: right right, And I was around when there were heroes,
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: and I'm glad you're back.
• 54:00
  Speaker 3: Jimir Duds pulls his hood back up and tries to
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: quietly leave the library.
• 54:09
  Speaker 5: Don't be a stranger, I say, pulling my bottle klava
• 54:12
  Speaker 5: back over my face.
• 54:17
  Speaker 2: I give Arthur a hug, and in his ear, I whisper,
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: I don't know what your political leanings are. We'll talk
• 54:25
  Speaker 2: about that later, okay, Okay, love you. I love you too, jeez,
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: and uh leo, what are you guys going to? A grimace?
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: King are you going back to Ronnie or Jamir's house
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: or do we want to get back into downtimes. I
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: know you guys.
• 54:55
  Speaker 4: Wanted to chase threads, but if there's anything we have
• 54:57
  Speaker 4: to unpack.
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: I'm thirsty for those threads.
• 54:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, goods.
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: But we can unpack. We can unpack. We could unpack
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: the suitcase before we get mey threads.
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: We can do both the same time. You guys can
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: do it, do a fashion show montage and we can
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: we can chat.
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know whatever you Yeah, I think maybe that
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: night Ronnie would head back to her apartment with Jillian,
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: pick up some burgers on the way.
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: Sure, So we're still in downtime, so that would have
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: been the end of unmasked life. So we can move
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: into thread chasing. If that's what everybody wants to do.
• 55:30
  Speaker 2: Sounds good, I think so. Yeah, And we'll break here
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: for some fun advertisements.
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: So fun.
• 55:38
  Speaker 4: Get on down to the gream is king, Get on
• 55:41
  Speaker 4: down to the gream is ging?
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: That's your thing?
• 55:45

• 56:06
  Speaker 3: I did four in Patrol three and Train two and
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: unmasked one and rest I did zero following threads.
• 56:14
  Speaker 4: Here's what I'll so. My unmasked was very juicy, and
• 56:18
  Speaker 4: I did I gave two to follow threads. If you'll allow,
• 56:22
  Speaker 4: I'd like to just get I'd like to donate those
• 56:25
  Speaker 4: threads to to have Jamir and Rigel get threaded up.
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: That's so nice. I also think it's fair.
• 56:32
  Speaker 4: I just want to attend the fashion show changing montage.
• 56:36
  Speaker 5: I also feel one of my threads should be donated
• 56:39
  Speaker 5: for all that juicy stuff about magic that felt that
• 56:44
  Speaker 5: felt like a lout, like you gave.
• 56:46
  Speaker 2: Us a lot. I guess in this moment, I will
• 56:49
  Speaker 2: let the paper Vantom give you a thread chasing point
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: to go get new suit with totally fine not getting
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: a suit. I'm totally fine. We want, I know, but
• 56:58

• 57:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we want the shopping. And I'll say, you can

• 57:14
  Speaker 4: pick what you have to wear. No, I'm not going.
• 57:21

• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: When we live here in Kono.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 4: In Crow's Hold, and in really all of SaaS, there
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 4: is no such deception. Instead, the people here indulge in
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 4: vices because.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: Something is the matter. In fact, a lot is the matter.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 2: So you need dusty blues bars, grimy shot glasses, and
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: raw artists fury. As you get to Crow's Hold, it
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 2: is It's like one of those places in a city
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 2: where the street is the street that matters, and the
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 2: street is called crow Crow Street. Everything revolves around this street.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 2: There are buskers, there are open stalls, there are bars
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 2: with open windows and open those open garage door things.
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: Well, man, this looks like so much fun.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 2: It is a fun part of town. Who I don't know.
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: If it's for you, Jimir, How have I never been here?
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 2: As you get to the address of the Glass of Sasas,
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 2: you're greeted by a glistening Marquis's sign that invites your
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: curiosity and gently wakes you with the simple words, she's
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 2: been around for a while. Colon the tailor.

• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: Let's go Scarecrow and Dorothy.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 2: You enter this bar and you're wrapped in a ubiquitous
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: silver blue hue that excites your senses and at the
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 2: same time calms you into a state of lethargy and wonder.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 2: You don't mind the oppressive cigar smoke. It seems to fit,
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 2: and you don't notice the sticky floors, don't mind the
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 2: language state of apathy. The patrons of a glass of
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 2: sass seem to be trapped in. You're greeted by a
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 2: host standing in a host stand a large man, small
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: bowler cap. Evening.

  Speaker 2: There is a stage, a small stage in this dusty
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: blues house. A small trio starts to play quietly, but
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: not enough yet to disturb the chatter in the room.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 2: A waiter comes over, What are you having tonight? You?
• 1:04:32

  Speaker 2: walked off of. It is a kind of an eccentric,
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 2: artisty part of town. But yes, people are looking at you,
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: and yes you notice quantum notice is more that some

• 1:05:22
  Speaker 5: then try to act casual.
• 1:05:27

• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: Above the unintelligible murmur of the crowd, the lilting piano
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 2: begins to plank away, louder than it was before, and
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 2: walking onto the stage spotlighted, the tailor in navy and
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 2: silver begins to sing, transfixed by her hourglass silhouette that
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 2: moves stark against the light and haze. All you can
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 2: do is watch and listen to this drag queen.
