Wish Hunter #24: Upon a Star - Part 2 · DiceSized

• 0:14
  Welcome to Die Size and welcome back to Wish Hunter.
• 0:17
  This is Dean D audio adventure podcast where we tell bite sized
• 0:19
  dice roll twice told stories. This is me, your DM and friend
• 0:22
  Robert Whitehead. And with me as always is my
• 0:25
  lovely table friends and family. Here we of course have my
• 0:27
  brother George. Hey, it's G playing Parable
• 0:30
  about to do something really cool.
• 0:33
  It feels like that's really all I have to say for this one.
• 0:37
  You guys are doing some cool stuff that to say the least I
• 0:40
  think mean with gods and long lost mothers and the spirits of
• 0:44
  old gods and one really mad one in the sky.
• 0:46
  That stuff is going on Parable. I don't blame you for just
• 0:49
  keeping it to one word. Parable is ready to let the
• 0:52
  story tell itself. Parable.
• 0:54
  Let's see what that story in front of us looks like.
• 0:57
  But before we get there, we of course have Maya.
• 0:59
  Hey, it's Maya. You can call me Maya.
• 1:01
  Looking forward, question mark to the final episode.
• 1:07
  But you know we're going to find some heinous way to make this
• 1:11
  last forever. This is not the last one, guys.
• 1:12
  Don't worry, we're not going anywhere.
• 1:15
  It's, it's so sad to think about it coming to anything like an
• 1:18
  end, but it's not and never is an end.
• 1:21
  It's always just to be continued as we've come to know and and as
• 1:25
  we've learned. I should just continue on to my
• 1:27
  lovely wife, Savannah. Sav here tonight I'll be playing
• 1:30
  Cassie for maybe the penultimate time in a long time.
• 1:35
  I'm going to miss these friends. They will live on in our hearts
• 1:39
  forever. Let's kill him.
• 1:42
  That is the attitude that we are looking for.
• 1:45
  Yes, amongst my DM tools tonight is a box of Kleenex, but I also
• 1:51
  have some dice. And before we get to rolling
• 1:53
  those, let's talk about a recap. Y'all Last time our heroes were
• 1:59
  hurled through the telescopic transporter, they're being
• 2:02
  scattered like Starlight, reformed only by force of will.
• 2:06
  For a heartbeat, they felt the edges of the underverse until
• 2:09
  they touched the root. A place without boundary,
• 2:12
  without barrier, without limits. Reforming upon the Violet silver
• 2:16
  star, they gathered themselves until familiar voice pierced the
• 2:19
  silence. The million Lone Star astrally
• 2:22
  projected from home, streaked across the sky to join them for
• 2:25
  as long as he could endure. Together they stepped into odd,
• 2:28
  an impossible Demi plane of endlessly repeating staircases,
• 2:32
  platforms and doorways. A voice thundered from all
• 2:36
  around them. I am the wizard Wish, the spirit
• 2:40
  of the West, Shaper of lands and waters.
• 2:43
  You have entered my domain, Impostors.
• 2:48
  When a crystal bearded wizard burst from one of the doorways,
• 2:50
  Cassie hurled the trimetal blade and shattered this false wish to
• 2:54
  crystalline dust. But the noise drew danger and
• 2:57
  detention. Drone lurched from behind trying
• 2:59
  to imprison Cassie, only for Parable to tear the spell apart
• 3:02
  mid cast with silvery force. The party then dismantled it
• 3:05
  with practice ease in the calm Parable sense.
• 3:08
  The truth. That voice hadn't been speaking
• 3:10
  to them, he'd been speaking to himself.
• 3:12
  Cassie too felt the pattern of this odd plane.
• 3:15
  This place held 1001 doors and platforms.
• 3:18
  Behind each door, another splinter of Wish, 1001 versions
• 3:23
  of a fragmented mine, each splinter convinced he is the one
• 3:26
  with the answer to save them all.
• 3:29
  Recovering the Trimetal dagger, our heroes tried to get their
• 3:32
  bearings on this place. Parable felt the draw of an
• 3:34
  Oasis within one of the chambers, yet was pulled back
• 3:37
  from its call. Then Cassie's divination pierced
• 3:39
  the false cosmic sky above them. Where are you hiding?
• 3:43
  She said. A vast face formed amongst the
• 3:46
  broken constellation, a face of stone and storms.
• 3:49
  And the true wizard Wish revealed himself or what he had
• 3:52
  become. Brave.
• 3:55
  The name cracked like Thunder as he said, I am not hiding.
• 4:00
  He had stripped away his mortality and left only
• 4:02
  obsession behind. Every splinter of himself he
• 4:04
  deemed imposter. All those who had doubted,
• 4:08
  questioned and hesitated. He had called them again and
• 4:12
  again, insisting I alone can save everything.
• 4:17
  Parable praying not to this false God or the gods he knew,
• 4:20
  but rather to the powers that he had come to hold precious these
• 4:23
  last few days. The power of prayer promise
• 4:27
  potential. Through this connection, Parable
• 4:29
  sensed a doorway that could aid them, and our heroes sought
• 4:32
  safety behind it. It was only with Attends
• 4:35
  sacrifice that bought them the moments they needed to escape.
• 4:39
  On the other side of that door, our heroes walked through a
• 4:41
  gallery of memory and regret. Beyond that, they found several
• 4:44
  beings trapped in Stasis, Sage, Sagacious, the Spirits of
• 4:48
  Fortune and Favor, and of course, the wizard's luck and
• 4:52
  Time. Luck.
• 4:53
  Sorayasarian, Cassie's mother, stood frozen with a faint smile.
• 4:58
  Stasis dispelled by hellish magics from Zen.
• 5:01
  Soraya was the first to speak. Soraya's first words were soft
• 5:05
  and stumbling now. As they embraced.
• 5:07
  She told her daughter she was proud that raising Cassie had
• 5:11
  made everything worth it. Then the wizard Time broke the
• 5:14
  moment by telling everyone to flee, and in that moment, Zin
• 5:17
  recognized the voice of the Holy Light.
• 5:20
  Finally, Zin put a face behind the power that had ruled Domi
• 5:24
  and told it off. With the help of her friends,
• 5:27
  Zin convinced Time to stay and help.
• 5:29
  Time was shocked when he actually took a second to fully
• 5:32
  appreciate our heroes. Finally sensing their Dominari
• 5:35
  nature, Soraya spoke highly of her daughter and the friend
• 5:39
  she'd found. As Cassie said, yeah, it was an
• 5:42
  accident. I just really lucked out, you
• 5:44
  could say. Soraya responded with quiet
• 5:47
  certainty. Nothing is an accident.
• 5:52
  We rejoin our heroes now, as you will find a moment's rest within
• 5:55
  this odd stasis chamber. Within this odd plane.
• 5:58
  Legendary figures the Wizard's Time and Luck stand in front of
• 6:01
  you, and the spirits of God's long dead Fortune and Favor, as
• 6:05
  well as an elder Sage of Star Watch remain trapped in stasis.
• 6:10
  It's just incredible to meet Cassie's mom.
• 6:14
  You're telling me? Soraya first looks to Cassie and
• 6:18
  says. Fate has been a friend to me,
• 6:23
  Cassie. That does not mean that we've
• 6:26
  always agreed, but it never stripped me of choice.
• 6:30
  Cassie, before you go out there, I just need, I need to tell you
• 6:34
  I chose to leave you. I chose a life that I knew would
• 6:40
  bring pain to those who I love most.
• 6:43
  Or time I forgot you. I forgot all of these things,
• 6:48
  these feelings of guilt and remorse.
• 6:50
  Nope. Worse, I discarded them and I
• 6:55
  became lost in a meaningless contest for power.
• 7:00
  It wasn't until I felt your binding to the third well that I
• 7:05
  could see, truly see, the pain I'd caused you.
• 7:09
  Our struggle against Wish achieved nothing in all those
• 7:12
  years. All I did was forsake the very
• 7:13
  people I'd promised to save. It may have been a fair goddess
• 7:17
  to you, but I was an absent mother.
• 7:20
  It was when I realized that that Raya was born.
• 7:24
  An aspect of me I could do, but I could not be there with you.
• 7:29
  Be there for you. I.
• 7:31
  Forgive you. I know you did what you thought
• 7:36
  was right and what you thought the world needed.
• 7:41
  In the end, you acknowledge the hurt, and that's more than some
• 7:46
  can say. Out there, Crave cannot
• 7:50
  acknowledge any amount of hurt. Crave is not a God.
• 7:55
  A God requires worship, gaining power from it, but also becoming
• 8:00
  beholden to it, to the nature of that worship.
• 8:03
  Wish is attempting to become something worse, something with
• 8:06
  the same power but without the restraints.
• 8:09
  We call it an elder element. So I need you to know I can't
• 8:14
  even tell you what you're about to walk into.
• 8:16
  It has no rules. Seeing what you go to face out
• 8:20
  there, it just reminds me that there are more important things
• 8:25
  than winning. I don't know if it's about
• 8:28
  winning anymore. Maybe it's about being able to
• 8:33
  say you tried, even if that means you lose people, or even
• 8:37
  if that means you don't get to know people the way you want.
• 8:42
  Trying and failing is better than wondering what would have
• 8:46
  happened. And we're here to try with you.
• 8:51
  We have to try. We have to.
• 8:54
  They do appear to be something of a special sort, I'll admit.
• 9:00
  Yeah, Am I getting an apology? Well.
• 9:03
  Yeah. Is she going to get an apology?
• 9:04
  Yeah, I've heard pretty much nothing but bad things about
• 9:08
  you. Excuse me, you've heard about
• 9:10
  me. That's that's to be expected.
• 9:14
  I just don't think we're going to get anywhere with him.
• 9:16
  How are my people by the way? Good, I'm sure.
• 9:18
  I mean I had to stop communing with my Solari followers a while
• 9:21
  ago to conserve resources. You as you know, I'm speaking
• 9:24
  rather I've run out of time I can see.
• 9:29
  Yeah, I can't really speak to the how dummy's doing.
• 9:34
  They, they should be fine. I mean, by the time they that
• 9:36
  the last time that we came out, I'd already sent down the living
• 9:40
  wish that I'd planned his name was ever.
• 9:43
  Yeah. Oh God, he was going to keep an
• 9:45
  eye on. What were they?
• 9:46
  I remember ever. What were they calling
• 9:48
  themselves? The 8 The anew?
• 9:50
  The sous? The anew, a new.
• 9:51
  Say. Anywho, yeah, but something like
• 9:54
  that. The least you could do is give
• 9:56
  them your time. They've given you so much of
• 9:59
  theirs. Lifetimes.
• 10:01
  They're not my only followers, dear.
• 10:03
  I have. It's Cassie.
• 10:06
  Cassie. So ever didn't work out the way
• 10:11
  I think you intended it to? Yeah, ever someone wished upon
• 10:16
  it. An innocent boy wished upon.
• 10:20
  It an innocent boy he wished or more.
• 10:23
  Well, that was part of the plan. More time, more.
• 10:26
  I wish for time. He wished for more time.
• 10:28
  It couldn't have gone badly. Right.
• 10:29
  So that thing then consumed everything in its path and we
• 10:33
  actually ended up having to kill it, which we did beautifully.
• 10:35
  By the way. You should have seen Parable.
• 10:36
  He had this really cool spinny sword thing.
• 10:38
  It was really exquisite. Interesting it.
• 10:41
  Caused a massive. Explosion.
• 10:43
  Was it? Was it capturing things in
• 10:44
  stasis? No, it was eating them and using
• 10:46
  their power for itself. Oh, that that part.
• 10:50
  It kind of sounds like. Admittedly not part of the plan.
• 10:53
  Yeah, yeah, Although kind of your thing.
• 10:58
  But you know, Domi, who's to say they're still alive?
• 11:02
  I hope that they're alive, considering my parents are still
• 11:06
  there. But you know, we can't do
• 11:08
  anything to help them unless we succeed here.
• 11:10
  Or at least try. Try here.
• 11:12
  We're going to succeed. But I do suggest that when this
• 11:15
  is all done, when this is all done time, I think you have a
• 11:20
  sorry parade to go on a. Parade.
• 11:23
  That that sounds. I'd take an apology.
• 11:26
  You're not going to get that. Maybe just a slight
• 11:31
  accountability parade. I might have one coming already.
• 11:36
  Like I said, Domi. You said Domi.
• 11:41
  Oh my God. Wasn't my only group of
• 11:43
  followers. I was once the Sage of the East.
• 11:48
  That's rich. Looks towards Soraya.
• 11:51
  I I told you I had a backup plan.
• 11:53
  Soraya looks pained, pained as she like kind of shakes her
• 11:58
  head. So you can go first, yeah.
• 12:01
  Yeah. Like I said, they're not my only
• 12:03
  followers. I was the the Sage of the East.
• 12:06
  I had followers all over there, a great machine of a
• 12:09
  civilization of people that gave themselves to to the machine.
• 12:14
  144 houses of Sola Vegas, the flying city of the Sun.
• 12:20
  Each a crucial. Gear in their cosmic clock of a
• 12:22
  city, though I think they like to call it a dragon clock at the
• 12:26
  time or something. So I think when we go in just
• 12:28
  leaves time talking to himself. I'm Ram.
• 12:30
  I'm RAM it all. All this is to say.
• 12:32
  Isn't the lands of fortune the ones that attacked?
• 12:35
  Yeah. Or the the the the.
• 12:36
  Drone that was in there earlier, Do you have drones up here this?
• 12:39
  Guy found time for all these side quests but couldn't just.
• 12:43
  Do you ever check in with your people?
• 12:45
  I, I mean, I have, I, I check in with people through.
• 12:49
  He showed up on Promise Day every year, so every year
• 12:53
  someone was turning 16, so he had a a single day every year.
• 12:59
  Oh, how nice of you to clear your schedule.
• 13:02
  Well, so The thing is, I had to do that amidst battling a God
• 13:06
  for divine power. And I had to.
• 13:08
  So did you need us to to pray to you so you could have your godly
• 13:12
  powers? But yeah, a God requires
• 13:15
  worship. That's the whole thing.
• 13:17
  So are you only in it for the power?
• 13:19
  And technically, aren't you elders?
• 13:21
  Yeah, you're not even a guy. Well, we're mortal, we're back.
• 13:24
  We, our divine mantle, are stripped.
• 13:26
  Okay, so. You don't need them to can ship
• 13:29
  you anymore. Being an elder is kind of like
• 13:31
  jailbreaking divinity. I've heard an optic.
• 13:36
  Home screen bro. I don't know how to describe it
• 13:41
  better than that. It it is ascending towards
• 13:44
  godhood and forcing yourself out of those restrictions by
• 13:48
  essentially so perversely breaking your concept.
• 13:53
  Or in Crave's case, trying to. He has both R and Luxe divine
• 13:58
  mantels. He is holding all three powers,
• 14:02
  trying to hold them himself. He cannot.
• 14:04
  He will be destroyed, or perhaps his plan will work and he'll
• 14:10
  become something greater and more terrible.
• 14:12
  I'm not sure what he was thinking.
• 14:15
  It's a stupid plan. The best we can do is stop it.
• 14:19
  What do you have to offer, mortal?
• 14:22
  Excuse me, I know we just convinced you to stay, but.
• 14:26
  Trying to cut her off, Farewell flies up with his little boots
• 14:29
  and gets eye height and says, it seems like you've been working
• 14:34
  behind the scenes for all of us, and I appreciate that.
• 14:39
  But when's the last time you got into the scrap of things?
• 14:43
  Well, I'll tell you, it'll feel good.
• 14:45
  I'm, I'm going to do something that's going to be a little
• 14:47
  shocking. He lifts his robe up to knee
• 14:50
  level and you see. They're so nobby.
• 14:54
  Yeah, the nobiest old man leaves, he says.
• 14:56
  I'm drops, drops it. Sorry.
• 14:59
  Sorry. Was that necessary?
• 15:00
  I'm out of time all but this. And he claps as if all the
• 15:08
  energy that had been in his whole body he had been storing
• 15:12
  between his hands. And you guys can take a long
• 15:16
  rest on your character sheets. Wait, but where is?
• 15:20
  Time he's gone. Where's time?
• 15:23
  I'm going to make a very important constitution save and
• 15:25
  throw. I have, I have.
• 15:28
  Can I? Can I help?
• 15:29
  With a natural fucking 20 Oh my God.
• 15:35
  He's. So thin that it looks like his
• 15:38
  his for a second it looks like he Obi Wan Kenobi his being is
• 15:43
  so thin that and frail that it looks like the cloak is just
• 15:47
  cloak until he starts moving. He says, Oh, I really thought I
• 15:49
  was going to go with that one anyways.
• 15:53
  All I got guys. Oh, like on a Nat 20 can I say
• 15:57
  like maybe he it worked out in his favor in a weird way and his
• 16:01
  knees aren't his knobby. This is like probably the second
• 16:05
  selfless act that time has done. Yeah, I think in Nat 20 means
• 16:08
  he's alive, yeah. He's life that's.
• 16:10
  Nice. Beautiful, yeah.
• 16:11
  He won't mind the knees. Go on his slight accountability
• 16:14
  tour after this. Now, Parade.
• 16:16
  I liked parade. I think that was good, Yeah.
• 16:19
  Time waits for no one, but you'll wait for me, especially
• 16:22
  if you guys beat him. I don't know what happens after
• 16:24
  this, but I'm not dying here. I didn't die just now.
• 16:28
  I'm not dying here. Oh no, those knees need to be
• 16:31
  studied. We got to get those back.
• 16:34
  We won't leave you behind. Thank you for the time.
• 16:36
  I think Zin is going to walk forward like grab his hand and
• 16:40
  cast false life. Nice.
• 16:43
  So he'll get some healing. I don't know if it'll really do
• 16:46
  anything he gets. 12. Hit points.
• 16:49
  And I think Zince, I'm going to say if I wouldn't have defied
• 16:52
  you all those years ago, I wouldn't be here right now
• 16:57
  fighting for the world that you failed to save did.
• 17:01
  You just say you said no to me and it was a good thing.
• 17:04
  Well, I, I said yes to something else, but yeah, it was a it, it
• 17:10
  was a good thing. It was a good thing that I said
• 17:13
  no to you. And it is a good thing that I am
• 17:16
  standing here now. I honestly wish more of them had
• 17:20
  said no. Looking back, me too.
• 17:23
  I think I might do a parade after this.
• 17:27
  She's been changed for the better.
• 17:30
  Mm hmm. Wow.
• 17:30
  For good you could say. Yeah, forever and ever.
• 17:33
  I would have been able to trust some people if you because if
• 17:36
  you could have said no to me. Well, again, I said yes to
• 17:39
  something else that ultimately said no to you, but.
• 17:41
  Yes, but I'm all powerful. Akuma would beg to diff.
• 17:44
  Yes, I'm all powerful bitch. Something that she said yes to.
• 17:50
  Once a wizard, I was once a dragon.
• 17:53
  You ever been a dragon time? I don't think so.
• 17:55
  Well, he starts, he starts, the old man rambling.
• 17:58
  My God. Zen turns background, you get
• 18:00
  the, you get the 12 hit. Points.
• 18:03
  Yeah, a parable sets him down gently and walks waves and.
• 18:07
  Come on guys, we have a battle to plan.
• 18:09
  We get to take a long rest. Yes, you guys do.
• 18:11
  And it's it's just an energy. He condenses time so that you
• 18:15
  guys get 8 hours, but time doesn't pass outside of this so.
• 18:19
  Wow, I feel like I just took a nap standing up.
• 18:22
  Wow, I wonder if this is how Dapple's goats feel nicely.
• 18:25
  I'm feeling a little lucky. I think I have some dark ones
• 18:31
  luck on my side. Well, I'll be damned.
• 18:34
  I think we're ready. Wait, Soraya, speaking to
• 18:37
  Cassie, puts a hand on your shoulder and says.
• 18:40
  I know you're not a wizard, but if you were potential fits,
• 18:46
  balance fits too. I can tell that there's a
• 18:49
  there's a blessing of balance upon you and I think it could be
• 18:52
  even just a little bit brighter and you feel that your blessing
• 18:58
  of balance harmonized and it's specifically right now when you
• 19:02
  take damage, I know that you can use your blessing of balance to
• 19:06
  return half damage. She changes that to returning
• 19:11
  double damage. What?
• 19:16
  OK, wow. Thanks, Mom.
• 19:19
  Is Cass supposed to be glowing where you touched her?
• 19:22
  I feel so powerful. Well, if anyone comes at my
• 19:27
  daughter or her friends, they better know they best not miss
• 19:32
  you. Get a little bit of a pirate in
• 19:34
  her out of bed. She's almost only a privateer.
• 19:37
  Only a privateer. Never a pirate.
• 19:39
  Never had to speak to anyone like that.
• 19:42
  Oh, Speaking of Wish, Beard is doing well.
• 19:44
  Oh my God, he got there with the bottle.
• 19:46
  Oh, he did. He did.
• 19:48
  That was one of the last flashes I had right before the wish.
• 19:51
  That that ship is is pretty, pretty cool.
• 19:55
  I had no idea what would save him, but I'm glad something did.
• 19:58
  It's a hard hitter. Wish it was here.
• 20:01
  Yeah, me too. Going through the belongings and
• 20:04
  getting ready for what we're about to do.
• 20:05
  I'm fumble around for my missing coin.
• 20:09
  I kind of hold my lamp thinking about a time I look at the good
• 20:14
  book and shield and watch it fold into a book and flip open.
• 20:19
  And I just feel for a moment where how much things have
• 20:22
  changed. And I remember one other thing
• 20:24
  in my satchel and I said, wait, Soraya, could you tell us about
• 20:29
  this and pull out the trimetal stone?
• 20:32
  Ah. Yes, the the weapon, you said
• 20:34
  you'd found it. I don't even know where it came
• 20:37
  from. They might and looks towards the
• 20:40
  spirits of favor and fortune. I doubt they could speak to us,
• 20:45
  but it was an artifact of their ascension.
• 20:48
  They gave themselves up and the power and gave well.
• 20:53
  I theorized us a chance for the route.
• 20:56
  Wish wasn't convinced. Wish was just convinced that it
• 21:00
  was a weapon and I had always had a special connection with
• 21:03
  fate. So Sybil she she was able to
• 21:07
  really convince me that it was never supposed to be a weapon
• 21:10
  that could kill gods. It was an artifact of their
• 21:13
  ascension. Even though it could be made to
• 21:16
  be a weapon and it needs to now, Wish always thought that it was
• 21:21
  a power that should be avoided. Finding that was one of the
• 21:24
  things that convinced Wish that gods have weaknesses.
• 21:29
  For a long time, Wish argued for ascension to godhood.
• 21:33
  But now that he's ascending to something else, I think it
• 21:36
  becomes all the more important that we deal with him, that we
• 21:40
  if we can take control of what he's doing.
• 21:43
  He still holds all of the power of the great wishing.
• 21:47
  All of this is still happening. It hasn't happened yet.
• 21:50
  He hasn't ascended. You don't go to fight an Elder
• 21:53
  Evil, you go to fight a God in the midst of becoming one.
• 21:58
  How do we make him mortal? That weapon, it will dispel his
• 22:03
  divinity, bring him back to his mortal self.
• 22:05
  But it will just be a chance, a window of potential opportunity.
• 22:10
  No more. We know a thing or two about
• 22:13
  chance and potential and luck and opportunity.
• 22:17
  That's my girl. Cans enroll an Arcana track or
• 22:22
  the stasis chambers of Fortune and Favour.
• 22:25
  Yeah, absolutely. Parable do the same totally. 17.
• 22:31
  Natural 20 Huge. 18 all more than enough to actually
• 22:36
  understand and see the spell casting circuitry that Zin was
• 22:40
  interacting with last session. So she.
• 22:41
  The cast sees it now. Yeah, like, so the spitting in
• 22:45
  the hand makes sense. It it has to do with Soraya
• 22:49
  noticing your interest in like the kind of arcane circuitry
• 22:53
  throughout the room says, oh, this is this is kind of advanced
• 22:57
  spell casting. It's both more base at the same
• 23:01
  time as it is more complex. At the heart of everything is
• 23:04
  vital aura. Do you guys know anything about
• 23:06
  it? Well, I mean, to let you out, I
• 23:08
  kind of just took parts of each of us and mixed it all together
• 23:12
  and then you guys just kind of walked out of here.
• 23:15
  That is one one way to say it, and rather rather beautiful to
• 23:19
  think of it that way. Yeah, as in like wipes her hands
• 23:22
  off on her pants. Yeah.
• 23:23
  It was it was something it. Didn't look like science, but it
• 23:26
  sort of reacted like science. I was shocked.
• 23:28
  Well, it's about exo, emo and ego vis a power that pushes and
• 23:34
  a power that pulls and a power that can remain in balance.
• 23:39
  You 3 do push, pull, and look towards Cassie kind of proudly.
• 23:45
  Remain in equilibrium quite well.
• 23:49
  So it doesn't surprise me that you've found a way to mix these
• 23:52
  energies so thoroughly. At times they've been called
• 23:55
  fortune, fate, and favor. At times they've been called
• 23:57
  wish, time, and luck. It doesn't matter the words on
• 24:00
  top of the powers, it just matters the interplay between
• 24:03
  them and you 3. Quite a dynamic.
• 24:06
  So should we let them out? USC yeah, with with precision,
• 24:11
  you know exactly what where to touch and to push energy towards
• 24:15
  to release these spirits from stasis.
• 24:17
  Seems like already spitting in her.
• 24:19
  Hands bearable, yeah. Bearable gives you, it was his
• 24:24
  hairs. Yeah, yeah, He gives you, he
• 24:26
  doesn't have any more chest hairs left, so he gives you his
• 24:28
  a couple of hairs. You're like so confused because
• 24:30
  for you, you see like where you could wish flick this down and I
• 24:33
  was. Like I'm like I could just
• 24:35
  install this, right? Like like I said, some of you
• 24:38
  push others. I'm pretty sure if I stand next
• 24:40
  to it, it has to collapse. I have like, an aura, but he
• 24:43
  goes here some of my hair. Oh, my God.
• 24:46
  I think Parable does sink inward, though, for a moment.
• 24:48
  And after hearing the XO, Emo and Egovis hearing of these
• 24:53
  energies and has always wondered where his power came from.
• 24:57
  Yeah. Whether that hit was from his
• 24:59
  Jin connection to the elements or the oath that he made.
• 25:03
  And for a moment he kind of feels like a piece of the puzzle
• 25:06
  finally. And he kind of also, he adds a
• 25:09
  tear to whatever your concoct thing over there.
• 25:13
  Then, like in the backyard, stirring up with a stick and mud
• 25:16
  and grass. Parable cries in it.
• 25:19
  Cass, Cassie. Gently peels a fingernail off.
• 25:23
  Oh God, again you see a way that you could like interact it with
• 25:26
  like a in a consteller way sometimes.
• 25:28
  We let Zen do stuff Zen's way. OK, she's creative.
• 25:31
  She's totally chilling when we do.
• 25:33
  It on the people's neighborhood kid from hell.
• 25:37
  Cassie also says it seems like a time when we could use more
• 25:40
  hands. Yeah, OK, OK.
• 25:42
  Hands, hands, hands. Hands rubbing your hands
• 25:44
  together and then just like sticks her grubby little hands.
• 25:51
  The stasis chamber. Right right before I describe
• 25:54
  what happens as these, any other notes as the you guys move to
• 25:57
  open the stasis parable cast the spell of magic just in case it
• 26:00
  doesn't. Work.
• 26:01
  I think Zen is like secretly thinking like, I hope they're
• 26:03
  nice, I hope they're nice, I hope they're nice.
• 26:05
  I. Was going to say, Cassie might
• 26:06
  say to Soraya. Is there anything we should know
• 26:09
  about them before we meet them face to face?
• 26:11
  She's talking to time and in like a way that's like, look at
• 26:14
  them, like look at how we used to be just laughing.
• 26:17
  And she looks back to you and she says, I don't think you need
• 26:20
  to know anything other than the fact that they might be out of
• 26:23
  balance without their third. OK, guys.
• 26:26
  I think we're ready. And.
• 26:29
  Sometimes we're out of balance too, you know, It's.
• 26:31
  Wait, is it? Oh.
• 26:35
  And you have two spirits that look at you.
• 26:38
  They look like ghostly versions of twin siblings.
• 26:45
  They look towards you and kind of very softly blink in a
• 26:51
  soundless way. One does appear a little bit
• 26:54
  more shadowy to the other and the other one appears a little
• 26:57
  bit brighter. Seems like they again have some
• 27:00
  sort of interplay off of one another, but as they go to
• 27:05
  embrace for the first time out of stasis.
• 27:08
  First of all, they're ghosts. They wouldn't be able to do even
• 27:10
  if they could, but there's like this magnetized polarizing force
• 27:13
  that pushes them back so that they can't actually touch
• 27:17
  Soraya. Says Cassie Zin, parable, meat,
• 27:23
  favor and fortune as mortals I believe they were once known as.
• 27:28
  And she looks them and bows very respectfully.
• 27:32
  Yami and Yumi, I don't know if they'll be able to help much,
• 27:37
  but if you have any questions, we can offer them before we I.
• 27:42
  I think they deserve peace. I think it's important that
• 27:46
  they're a part of this, even if they can't help, and maybe
• 27:50
  they'll be inspired. Parable looks at favor and says,
• 27:54
  Yumi, I just want to know, do we have your favor going forward?
• 28:01
  She first looks in response to Soraya, nodding and smiling, and
• 28:06
  then looks to you. Although she can speak no words,
• 28:09
  you feel her approval. And as you, me, the spirit of
• 28:14
  favor raises a hand, and perhaps you on the forehead, you feel
• 28:20
  Fortune's favor cast upon you. VOA.
• 28:24
  Fortune's favors a spell that you'll be able to get advantage
• 28:27
  for an attack and her ability check, but she too seems to want
• 28:31
  to spare whatever last energy she can before she passes, and
• 28:36
  she looks towards Yaomi, her twin brother, in a way of like,
• 28:41
  ushering him forward. Cassie says to them both.
• 28:46
  Thank you for carrying the torch.
• 28:49
  We'll try to bring you some relief.
• 28:52
  Again they cannot speak words to respond but they look pleased.
• 28:56
  They look at Peace and Yumi looking to her brother Yami,
• 29:02
  Favor and Fortune brother and sister.
• 29:05
  Yami joins by her side and offers energy out to you all.
• 29:09
  Is there anyone that steps to Yami as he offers energy out?
• 29:14
  I think parable's still floating with the glowing forehead after
• 29:17
  being touched by the connected I.
• 29:19
  What would I be in the XO Emo and ego bees?
• 29:23
  You would be a power I think that pushes rather than poles,
• 29:26
  which is XO. Yeah, I think seeing another
• 29:30
  being being connected suddenly to this XO bees and having
• 29:32
  understanding, I think Parable's floating there for a second with
• 29:35
  his forehead touch and comes back to himself ready to do what
• 29:38
  we need to do. So he'd let you both step
• 29:40
  forward. Yeah, I think Zen kind of just
• 29:43
  stepped forward and like, puts her hands out after wiping.
• 29:47
  Sanitized. Yeah, Yeah.
• 29:48
  Very clean, sanitized by fire. Touching you as well.
• 29:53
  You also feel the spell of fortunes favor cast upon you.
• 29:57
  And as you step up, I think they both look not sad but tired as
• 30:04
  they expend this energy, a soft glow that emanates and fills
• 30:08
  you, a feeling of confidence, a feeling of faithfulness upon
• 30:13
  you. And as they look towards you,
• 30:15
  they give an expression that seems a goodbye.
• 30:18
  And as they turn to one another and embrace, they slowly fade.
• 30:23
  But you feel something in the fading one last spell being
• 30:27
  cast. And Soraya says that's
• 30:31
  beautiful, Cassie, this one's for you.
• 30:35
  And one last glowing little bit of light fades from their
• 30:39
  essence and drifts towards Cassie.
• 30:42
  You hear Star Song. It is one of Sybil and her
• 30:46
  nature, as if two friends who knew her well offered up what
• 30:50
  she might in the situation. And you have foresight cast upon
• 30:55
  you in this moment. Beautiful.
• 30:57
  Thank you. And bows as they fade.
• 31:00
  Thank you. But who's this guy?
• 31:06
  One more romantic moment, I think Parable opens this good
• 31:08
  book and I I think mechanically this would be like kind of
• 31:12
  casting a bless to these departing beings.
• 31:14
  But he waits for the page to write a fate, fortune and
• 31:20
  favour. Although they could not save
• 31:23
  her, a John left or another as they held and left each other.
• 31:30
  Would you like to roll to see if it stays?
• 31:32
  I would love to roll now knowing well, I don't know if I would
• 31:36
  know as parable that this is Wish's book.
• 31:41
  No. So can I roll to see if this
• 31:43
  gives me any insight give? Me a real gin check here.
• 31:47
  We can say it with Advantage 20. 4. 24 makes you feel it.
• 31:54
  In truth, that wish is the one that once held this book, or you
• 31:59
  also feel it to be true, that wish is the one that killed fate
• 32:02
  and the reason that she could not be here today.
• 32:05
  You feel the things that he's done upon the words you write
• 32:10
  when you say could not save her. You sense exactly what this book
• 32:14
  was once filled with all the people and thoughts of the
• 32:18
  people that the wizard wish could not save a man that you
• 32:22
  just feel the broken psyche of putting pressure down all around
• 32:26
  you. And with that you have the
• 32:29
  spirits of long dead gods having granted you blessings of
• 32:33
  fortune's favor. The parable and is in in
• 32:35
  foresight to Cassie which is a quite a high level spell. 9th
• 32:40
  9th level spell. Wow.
• 32:42
  Granting you advantage on essentially everything and
• 32:45
  disadvantage anything coming at you so.
• 32:47
  What and what is Fortune's favor?
• 32:48
  Fortune favor is essentially like a luck point that you
• 32:51
  dismiss the spell upon you and say I'm re rolling that.
• 32:55
  Wow. Yeah, I think in reading the
• 32:58
  good Book I see Bates name get crossed out, the pages flip and
• 33:02
  react to the room that I'm in and I close the good book and
• 33:05
  say for now you'll be a shield and I turn it into the shield.
• 33:10
  Turns to a much more a much more combat ready material as your
• 33:14
  shield is ready for what lay ahead.
• 33:17
  We do have one last stasis chamber.
• 33:19
  Do you guys want to take care of Sage Sagacious within his
• 33:22
  chamber? Yeah, I think Zen would say
• 33:24
  like, well, I mean, what's one more, you know, why?
• 33:26
  Why not just release them all? Who?
• 33:28
  Who is this by the way, looking to Soraya I?
• 33:31
  Think Zen? You might know best.
• 33:33
  Aren't you the one that keeps the list for the group?
• 33:36
  Oh my gosh, There's been the one thing that we haven't been able
• 33:39
  to check off this entire time is go and meet Sage Sagacious.
• 33:45
  So he's been here the whole time?
• 33:47
  Oh, Mike. Well, hold on.
• 33:49
  Her list checks it off. Alright, somebody open the
• 33:52
  stasis chamber. I don't want to spit in my hand
• 33:54
  again. Parable pokes it.
• 33:56
  You open the stasis. Chamber, you guys have some nice
• 33:59
  proficiency with it. Before he even like comes
• 34:01
  forward, she's like shaking his hand like, oh you're good,
• 34:08
  you're here. Sorry, wow, sorry.
• 34:12
  It's okay. No, it's so good to meet you.
• 34:14
  That was we've been, we've been sorry.
• 34:17
  Quite the mission trying to find you, Sir.
• 34:19
  Sir Sagacious who? Sage.
• 34:22
  Oh, me. Yes, you.
• 34:23
  Yeah, that's. Hello, I am Zen, the hunter of
• 34:27
  the third. Well.
• 34:28
  Shakes your hand. OK, this is my name.
• 34:30
  So confused. This is potential and this is
• 34:33
  prayer. Sir Soraya, how long has he been
• 34:35
  here? Oh, I think he might have been
• 34:37
  looking at the stars too long. That happens.
• 34:40
  He's. They do that over.
• 34:41
  There, he's a bit, he says, addled.
• 34:45
  That's what you get for gatekeeping.
• 34:47
  Information. Oh wait, that's right, we don't
• 34:49
  like. That well.
• 34:50
  No turtle jokes the stasis and puts.
• 34:53
  A bit happened. You, you, you poke him and
• 34:56
  Stasis raises in the middle of a sentence where he's saying.
• 34:59
  The thing is, I just looked at the star for a while enough
• 35:01
  until I wanted to walk into why I was in that room with the
• 35:04
  telescope. Was it I?
• 35:07
  I was got. The transporter set you.
• 35:09
  Straight he gets stuck in Stace. It's Oh, poor guy.
• 35:15
  Yes, yes, he he he he was an idiot.
• 35:18
  He just got corrupted by the sarge early on like this.
• 35:22
  Is who they had in charge then? Yes, And we were, you see.
• 35:25
  Yeah, I, I. Put it back.
• 35:27
  Up. I hope you're OK with that.
• 35:28
  I just think he's the safest thing for him.
• 35:30
  I checked the box and I'm good to go.
• 35:32
  You want to go fight a God? After meeting the essence of
• 35:35
  what our reality is and God's. He was very.
• 35:39
  Underwhelmingly. Underwhelming.
• 35:41
  There's a world that you guys scribed where he was like long
• 35:44
  ago and just got the vision of this man locked in stays.
• 35:48
  Screaming for his life, yeah. He's been up here since the
• 35:51
  start of the campaign, since before.
• 35:53
  She went down. Oh my.
• 35:54
  God. La Million never did find him,
• 35:56
  but I thought. The hunger ate him as.
• 35:59
  Terrible. And better than this?
• 36:00
  As terrible poor guy as George to my brother.
• 36:03
  Good Easter ether egg. He's he's not, he's not much
• 36:07
  help here and a bit star corrupted.
• 36:09
  He's like half a step from being a star zombie.
• 36:11
  Well. Those are some knobby knees you.
• 36:16
  Only see so many knobby knees in an hour and you're like wow.
• 36:20
  Soraya says I'll take care of him.
• 36:24
  I mean, I shouldn't come into the fight anyways.
• 36:25
  Like we were saying before, without us looks towards time,
• 36:30
  Without us, Crave is going to be imbalanced and if we show up,
• 36:34
  I'm afraid he might find a way to use our energies so we can
• 36:37
  stay here and keep an eye on Sage Sagacious.
• 36:42
  Well, you know if you hear lots of screaming and then maybe more
• 36:47
  screaming, then you can come out and maybe help if need be.
• 36:50
  That that I I was kind of thinking about that as a client.
• 36:53
  Jump in if you feel cold. Yeah, I will.
• 36:56
  Feeling that we need it OK so we got this we got this we.
• 37:02
  Got. This.
• 37:03
  We'll, we'll try to maybe distract him or, you know, and
• 37:07
  then we can hit him with the, with the metal and then he'll go
• 37:10
  mortal and stuff and then and then it's cakewalk from there,
• 37:13
  right? Brick floats up and goes.
• 37:17
  Brick. Oh Brick.
• 37:17
  You stay very safe, Brick. You are carrying very, very
• 37:21
  precious cargo that I don't know about are.
• 37:26
  We sure we don't want to leave Brick with Sorhaya.
• 37:28
  I honestly think that'd be a good idea, buddy.
• 37:31
  Does Brick look at it like anything?
• 37:32
  He's typically a map to his surroundings, but what the hell
• 37:34
  does he look like right now? Give me a arcana check for
• 37:39
  brick. OK, Brick.
• 37:41
  It's a + 6 I think too Arcana 24 with a 24.
• 37:46
  I think brick is able to map out at least the surrounding area
• 37:50
  around you guys. And with that, I will actually
• 37:53
  give you if you're welcome to go engage with crave outside right
• 37:57
  away. But you do see a couple of
• 38:00
  bright spots within the chambers around you.
• 38:04
  The way that brick I think would map this out is kind of like
• 38:07
  corridors and with like points of interest.
• 38:10
  And he just kind of puts 2 pings.
• 38:13
  He does put in a number of other pings as well, which he he
• 38:18
  communicates somehow that these are versions of wish to avoid
• 38:22
  like that would just be additional hostiles.
• 38:25
  But he does put out two pings that seem to be not that, but
• 38:30
  entities nonetheless. What are you trying to tell us,
• 38:32
  buddy? Imagine like shapes swirling and
• 38:37
  he's trying his best to make this reality but he can't so he
• 38:39
  just makes glowing dots. Sav and Maya give me arcana
• 38:44
  checks. You can both add +4 to these.
• 38:47
  22/8. 8 is unfortunately not enough, so bigger the more you
• 38:54
  don't notice it. But from within the parable, you
• 38:57
  do notice it. Nick's the pings that brick
• 39:01
  Pings are elemental voices. They're primals.
• 39:05
  Their wishes, primals. Their elementals parable.
• 39:10
  Wait, you hear it within your mind parable.
• 39:12
  They're. Primals.
• 39:14
  Like you. Like me.
• 39:17
  I think what Nick's thanks for being here when I need you.
• 39:25
  Goodbye. Tell more that I said I love
• 39:28
  you. Love.
• 39:32
  I will. I will.
• 39:33
  What am I, the devil? No, that's me.
• 39:40
  As you've been given a hint on another adventure that you could
• 39:44
  use against Crave. I would say a piece of me knows
• 39:48
  that these two dots here and I point to these two spaces, they
• 39:52
  might be friends. We could use that, Yeah, we
• 39:57
  could use friends. I don't know how the risk of
• 39:59
  getting there, but I think it might be worth it.
• 40:01
  I. Think it's worth a try?
• 40:02
  I mean, more of US against him is, I would say, a good thing.
• 40:06
  Good, good. How close are they?
• 40:10
  I think they're within reasonable distance, not too far
• 40:13
  away from the encounter with Crave, and so you're it, it will
• 40:17
  cross I think the corridor with him.
• 40:19
  So these will require some stealth checks.
• 40:21
  Quick pit stops, yes. Cool.
• 40:22
  But hit me with some stealth checks if you guys want to get
• 40:24
  to these primal voices. Are we leaving?
• 40:26
  We're right out the door. You want to do anything?
• 40:28
  Yeah, I'm going to burn a pack slot and I'm like, OK guys, it's
• 40:31
  my tickle bitch and I, we all go invisible.
• 40:35
  Nice. Yes, with the I believe you're
• 40:39
  able to catch the three people just like you did with Sofandra
• 40:42
  Cassians in last time. And now you guys will still give
• 40:46
  me stealth checks, but you can do so with advantage.
• 40:48
  Incredible. And none of my advantages are
• 40:51
  going to stack correct? None of your advantages are
• 40:53
  going to stack. OK, all right.
• 40:55
  We're we're opening the door. It's we're doing.
• 40:57
  This, yeah, OK. I guess, I guess.
• 40:59
  Yeah. Parable.
• 41:00
  Are you guys here? Wait, wait, wait.
• 41:03
  On last thing. Good luck.
• 41:06
  Thanks, mom. Thanks Cassie's mom.
• 41:08
  Thanks Cassie's mom, I. Always wanted to be called that.
• 41:11
  Parable puts his hand on the doorknob and looks at his
• 41:13
  friends and goes 123. Amazing and you invisibly are
• 41:22
  able to hopefully get past the wizard wish. 19 for Zen 21.
• 41:27
  I rolled an 8 but I'm going to use my prophecy die from Riah.
• 41:34
  With my prophecy die from Riah, my 8 becomes a 13. 13 is just
• 41:43
  enough to get past here. Yes, you are dirty.
• 41:46
  Paws. That was a dirty paws.
• 41:49
  Thank you, thank you, thank you. Go wash your paws.
• 41:54
  I've rolled an 11. I peed.
• 41:55
  I'm all told. You guys are able to find 2
• 41:59
  chambers that kind of interconnect with one another. 1
• 42:02
  is a Oasis room that Parable was drawn to earlier and it's a
• 42:09
  sandstone floor with a swirling pool in the middle.
• 42:13
  The other is a room filled with stone drones just like brick.
• 42:19
  Most of them are nerds and broken, but one amidst a massive
• 42:24
  pile blows at the top. These two chambers you feel
• 42:32
  elemental energies radiating out from stone from the one with the
• 42:38
  pile of stone drones and water from the Oasis.
• 42:42
  Which do you approach? I think just because of how
• 42:45
  scary all the drones have been, Parable would honestly be drawn
• 42:49
  towards the sands. But he'd he'd follow with his
• 42:52
  friends, so he'd he'd eye at the sand door and say that one
• 42:55
  first. Elements are kind of your thing.
• 42:59
  I'm, I'm willing to follow your lead and also just as a side
• 43:03
  since we're invisible, you all look great.
• 43:05
  By the way, if you hit anything or use magic, it will go away.
• 43:10
  So just, you know, choose wisely.
• 43:13
  Parable goes up to the door with the sands and opens it and steps
• 43:18
  inside. You step inside and find what
• 43:22
  you expected, the Oasis that called you, before swirling in
• 43:26
  the pool. A little droplet rips up, you
• 43:30
  see as it drips up, dripping up at a continual pace.
• 43:34
  It eventually starts to giggle and you see a kind of Arc in the
• 43:39
  air and and drop into a different part of the pool and
• 43:43
  you see it is more so plain. Welcome guys.
• 43:46
  I haven't had visitors in forever.
• 43:48
  I was bored. I like to flow wherever I can.
• 43:52
  I think I can see it. Oh, you're kind of inside me.
• 43:56
  I'm not this small. Parable walks up next to the
• 43:59
  pool and crosses his legs and sits and says hi, I'm.
• 44:03
  Parable. Hi, I'm Flo.
• 44:06
  Hi, Flo. Parable This place keeps finding
• 44:09
  you. I.
• 44:11
  Been here before. Something like it.
• 44:14
  It's not the same one, but there is a He always missed the pools.
• 44:24
  He always wondered what it would have been like if he hadn't been
• 44:27
  given to them. He thinks he chose them.
• 44:30
  He didn't. The pools chose him.
• 44:33
  It's not his fault. Are you one of these pools?
• 44:40
  Silly, I'm I'm the hallways you've been walking in.
• 44:43
  I'm the rooms you've been walking.
• 44:44
  I'm, I'm a big part of him. I'm this whole place around you
• 44:49
  just like he is. Parable understands himself more
• 44:54
  in this moment. It's been a lot of changes but
• 44:57
  he still he feels the immensity of what the pools did for him
• 45:02
  and the gin magic and the connection to the Moray and what
• 45:05
  the Moray were talking about. He finally understands what they
• 45:08
  prayed to and and why they prayed and Parable starts
• 45:14
  humming. You feel the water resonating
• 45:17
  with you somehow and flows. That tickles.
• 45:21
  I haven't heard that one in a while.
• 45:23
  And he starts beating on the ground.
• 45:25
  Oh, you're going. To wake up and she dips
• 45:30
  underneath the water and the glowing orb from the top of the
• 45:35
  O stone drones pile lifts and you feel in here many of the
• 45:39
  heavy bits of stone shift and rock to the side as the pile
• 45:44
  itself shifts. This drone rises and it says I
• 45:49
  am EB, leave this place, this is my domain, this is my domain.
• 45:55
  Get out, get out. Get out, get.
• 45:57
  Out we mean no harm. We're just here.
• 46:00
  It flares. Get.
• 46:03
  Out, I think Parable stares at it and keeps beating the drums
• 46:08
  on the ground as if like kind of trying to say hello through this
• 46:12
  ancestry he just he's starting to connect with.
• 46:14
  He tries to continue this rhythm and use the eye contact and
• 46:19
  share energy rather than words. OK, you can give me an arcana or
• 46:23
  a persuasion check. I will do a persuasion check the
• 46:29
  19. A 19 is enough, I think, to get
• 46:33
  EB to settle. As he falls into beat, his
• 46:38
  pattern starts to flare and pulse with the beat of your your
• 46:41
  rhythmic drumming and flow. Strips her head up out of the
• 46:46
  water and kind of looks around and says he's not mad.
• 46:51
  I. He he's dancing.
• 46:54
  Parable hits the last beat and hum and says I don't really know
• 46:58
  what happened. I look at ebb and flow.
• 47:01
  You're not someone we can take with us, are you?
• 47:04
  No. I'm kind of all around you and
• 47:10
  EB says you're in my domain, get out.
• 47:14
  You're stepping on me. We we don't like being this
• 47:18
  place uncomfortable. That's why we're here.
• 47:21
  I'm with us. We have to help.
• 47:25
  We have to help Zerza. He'll come back for us.
• 47:30
  I think you need to come back for him.
• 47:32
  Float. He's forgotten us.
• 47:38
  No, he hasn't he. He's lost himself.
• 47:41
  He just needs to be reminded. I have friends like you.
• 47:47
  I call them Nicks and more. They live inside me like we live
• 47:53
  inside you right now. You'll forget them, just like EB
• 47:57
  starts to cry. Flo says he does that sometimes.
• 48:01
  He's a big old softy and EB says you'll forget them just like is
• 48:09
  there is a forgot us the wizard wish.
• 48:13
  He thinks he's accepted his his genie half.
• 48:16
  He thinks he's forgotten us. He doesn't even know if we're
• 48:20
  gone. He just thinks we're quiet.
• 48:24
  I think then is going to step forward and put her hand on ebb
• 48:30
  and cast gaze of two minds to try to better understand him.
• 48:36
  Give me an insight role. You can do so with advantage due
• 48:39
  to the casting of gays of two minds.
• 48:41
  Love that 9:00. It's an alien viewpoint.
• 48:47
  It is one that is so devoutly loyal to Azerza the wizard wish,
• 48:54
  but is it's one that you. It feels akin to promise day,
• 48:59
  the time that you offer or look for this like this, want to take
• 49:05
  care of oneself rather than this power that you find yourself
• 49:10
  beholden to. EB feels beholden to crave, but
• 49:15
  still is obviously been hurt by him.
• 49:19
  How can you still hang on? And even with a nine, you
• 49:23
  understand how one might hang on through the pain.
• 49:26
  It's just not EB's time for him to have the capacity to let go,
• 49:31
  perhaps with help. While I'm doing Gaze of Two
• 49:35
  Minds, I benefit from any special senses possessed by that
• 49:39
  creature, if he's a domain or if he is like does he have
• 49:43
  anything? On it thoroughly mind fucked
• 49:45
  right now. Oh God.
• 49:48
  Can for flavor Parable say I did forget the pieces of me, the
• 49:53
  gin. It wasn't by choice, it was
• 49:55
  forced on me, but they came for me.
• 49:59
  I might have had the move to find them, but they came back
• 50:02
  and maybe that's what you could do.
• 50:05
  Or as there is a. Ebb is like kind of shaking and
• 50:08
  beginning to flare. This whole time, I think Zen
• 50:11
  hand on Gaze of Two minds. You're like walking through
• 50:16
  hallways that are inside of this little sphere of brick and
• 50:22
  stone. You see the inner workings and
• 50:25
  again, alienating complex, but you feel them starting to flare
• 50:28
  to life at parables words. And at the same time as EB feels
• 50:34
  calmed at parables words, he feels excited thinking about his
• 50:38
  connection to Crave and how he might restore it one day.
• 50:41
  And Zen. You feel ebb and flow and crave
• 50:45
  are obviously intrinsically connected.
• 50:49
  Crave might hold most of the power and hold a controlling
• 50:54
  share of it. However, he does not hold all of
• 50:57
  it. You have two allies in front of
• 50:59
  you that could just by choice, weaken him just by convincing
• 51:06
  them to be your allies. Zen, you feel EB so
• 51:12
  intrinsically tied to Crave, you know that.
• 51:14
  Like if you were to fight Ebb and Flow right now, you'd be
• 51:17
  doing damage to Crave at the same time.
• 51:20
  I doubt that's what you guys want to do, but you could also
• 51:24
  convince them to disconnect from crave.
• 51:28
  You hold both of you hold you and Flo more power than you give
• 51:33
  yourselves credit for. And if I know anything about
• 51:37
  holding power that I didn't necessarily ask for is that you
• 51:40
  hold the power and that you can control it.
• 51:44
  I've always known I was strong. Flo says that she drips up.
• 51:48
  Use it. The drip becomes bigger.
• 51:51
  And Ebb, I think both of you understand that Crave isn't
• 51:57
  connected anymore and the best thing for him might to be
• 52:00
  mortal. He can't be reasoned with in
• 52:02
  this state. We have an idea, but it would
• 52:05
  help a lot if you could help us access that mortal person in
• 52:09
  him. At that question, everyone.
• 52:13
  Oh no, if we said his name too many times.
• 52:14
  No give me give me insight roles with advantage. 25. 16.
• 52:22
  Not 20. Damn, 25 and the Nat 20 are
• 52:27
  enough to know that there is a mortal self out there somewhere
• 52:32
  and it's not crave right? He discarded his mortal self.
• 52:35
  So amongst the 1001 aspects there is a mortal one.
• 52:39
  There is one of them that holds. One of.
• 52:43
  Oh, one of. One of one of the many copies of
• 52:45
  Wish. One of the many versions of Wish
• 52:47
  out there. There's a room here separately.
• 52:49
  There's a mortal one somewhere. You don't have the time to look
• 52:51
  for them, but ebb and flow you see as they look towards one
• 52:57
  another, an adventure that they have long discussed with one
• 53:01
  another. Do you think we could find him?
• 53:04
  EB says to flow. Flow stops midair, hovering as a
• 53:08
  little droplet of water, he says.
• 53:12
  I think we could find him. Go, go find him.
• 53:15
  Be careful though. That's the person that you're
• 53:18
  you're supporting, not what's out there.
• 53:21
  Tells us to stay. No, don't listen.
• 53:24
  It's not him. I think you're the pieces of him
• 53:26
  he needs to listen to, and if it means connecting with something
• 53:30
  he left behind, I think you should go find it.
• 53:33
  Ebb and flow begin to speak in unison, as they say, we shall
• 53:38
  flow like water with the purpose of stone, and they need no more
• 53:44
  convincing. You have just done 400 damage to
• 53:50
  crave 200 damage apiece for having convinced flow and have
• 53:55
  to leave from his power. This is no fucking joke of a
• 53:58
  fight that was common. I'm going to kiss bricks so
• 54:01
  hard. So I mean, wow, I I was already
• 54:05
  like thinking about with gaze of two minds or inside what you're
• 54:08
  the mind that you're gazing into.
• 54:09
  So I imagine like that phase shift effect that you can put on
• 54:12
  things just for a moment. And then with this, this
• 54:14
  collapse, I'm imagining us like going through like an earthquake
• 54:18
  type Aladdin sand collapse of The Cave of wonders of So I do
• 54:22
  say guys, I think we should run. Yeah, I think we should go to
• 54:26
  the next one. These chambers do begin to
• 54:28
  collapse. We'll.
• 54:29
  Squeak out that door real quick. Close it behind us.
• 54:31
  Yeah, yeah. So I I run for the door and
• 54:34
  slide on the sand and I skate for a moment and use a little
• 54:38
  hot air and wind and I look at blow and have been set and give
• 54:42
  away. As you do so, you see them not
• 54:45
  looking back, having too much fun on the adventure that is to
• 54:47
  be had already, making up handshakes and having inside
• 54:50
  jokes. They have an adventure head to
• 54:52
  save Azarza, the mortal bit of wish somewhere deep within this
• 54:57
  plane of odd. Meet us in the main chamber.
• 55:00
  We'll see you soon. And there you guys leave from
• 55:03
  this chamber and feel the sky crack Thunder.
• 55:09
  Oops, it is time. Crave, who was once the wizard
• 55:13
  Wish, now a mad God intent on becoming something worse, calls
• 55:19
  out impostors, which you're hiding.
• 55:26
  Base me. Parable discreetly readies the
• 55:32
  trimetal stone and says we're not hiding.
• 55:38
  Well, we are technically invisible.
• 55:41
  It sneezes again. Parable as you call out to this
• 55:46
  God in the sky, Crave, the once wizard now mad God trying to be
• 55:51
  something even worse, he hears you roll a mischief as Crave
• 55:57
  says, I see you imposter, fix me.
• 56:03
  Cassie rolled a 14. Parable rolled an 18 on the
• 56:05
  diaper 21. Nice.
• 56:07
  Zen rolled a 16. Great stuff y'all.
• 56:10
  That is going to be first up Parable.
• 56:13
  Really. Layer action.
• 56:15
  Against an elder. Oh, because he's above 20?
• 56:18
  Yes, layer actions typically take place on Initiative 20.
• 56:22
  OK. Can I, with my alert feet, trade
• 56:25
  places with that layer action? That would be cool, but that?
• 56:30
  Would be cool damn it. Layer alert.
• 56:32
  I know it's just the alarms going off inside his head and
• 56:35
  she just switches with them and she's in up in the spaces she's
• 56:39
  MCS. OK do on that note, no, Zen is
• 56:44
  not the room. Zen is not the room.
• 56:47
  You're inside me. OK, now I'm done.
• 56:51
  And I do think, Zen, I think you had to go UN invisible for the
• 56:54
  gays of two minds. But Cassie and Parable, albeit
• 56:58
  with role play aside, I will still allow you to stay
• 57:00
  invisible for the purposes of this combat.
• 57:02
  So, Parable, you are invisible as you start at the top of our
• 57:05
  initiative here. Cool, I look to my friends and
• 57:09
  then I look to this voice above me and can I roll like a
• 57:13
  perception check just to see where he is?
• 57:16
  Yes, absolutely there is. That is a very good point.
• 57:18
  He's all around you. But this perception check I
• 57:20
  will. I still have divine sense
• 57:21
  active. Yes, divine sense is still up,
• 57:23
  so give me a perception check with advantage.
• 57:25
  This will be to figure out where you could strike at for melee
• 57:28
  purposes. 25. Awesome.
• 57:32
  More than enough to find the face of storm, cloud and stone
• 57:37
  hiding amongst the sky. Although it says come out and
• 57:40
  face me, it does not itself appear as it craves your
• 57:45
  destruction. It does not mean it wants its
• 57:47
  own. As you find it within the sky
• 57:50
  and within the clouds. I will say that it is 60 feet up
• 57:54
  and away outside of the out of this chamber.
• 57:56
  You kind of have the benefit of cover where you are right now.
• 58:00
  Where this is is kind of on an open plane.
• 58:03
  It's such a large platform, you lose the cover of the hallways
• 58:07
  and many, many staircases if you are to go out there.
• 58:10
  But it's where you are to go if you want to engage him.
• 58:14
  I think because parable's invisible and I don't lose that
• 58:18
  out of distance of Zen, do I? No.
• 58:20
  You only lose it if you cast a spell, take damage, or deal
• 58:22
  damage. Parable is going to look at you
• 58:25
  both look down at the Tri metal stone and give you a nod.
• 58:31
  Friends, by my last breath, I'll keep you safe.
• 58:36
  I can, but thank you for keeping me safe.
• 58:40
  If we don't make it back to say anything else to each other, I
• 58:44
  just want to say. Parable.
• 58:46
  We're going to make it. Save it.
• 58:49
  I love you, Cassie. I love you, Zen.
• 58:51
  I love you too, Parable. I love you too, Parable.
• 58:53
  And I jump away and I fly straight towards the face.
• 58:57
  I take all my movement speed towards the the face.
• 59:00
  I have my flying boots. My movement speed right now is
• 59:03
  30 walking with my boots. I think it's 30 flying.
• 59:08
  Awesome, with dash action you could engage.
• 59:11
  I could misty step. Awesome.
• 59:13
  Yeah, Misty Step would get you there with a turn to take two
• 59:16
  attacks. I think Parable would get as far
• 59:20
  as he can with his flying speed, which would put him within 30
• 59:23
  feet, and I think he would. As you fly into the sky, given
• 59:28
  that this God has true sight and his eyes do look right towards
• 59:34
  you as he says, I see you imposter.
• 59:37
  Fate has brought you to me to be crushed before me.
• 59:41
  You can't be talking outside of your turn.
• 59:44
  I fly straight between his eyes. I have misty step with a bonus
• 59:49
  action, and then I'm going to attack twice.
• 59:52
  Awesome. I'm going to do one with a long
• 59:55
  sword and then one with the rapier doing Beck and SAP on the
• 59:58
  road. Sick.
• 59:59
  You know, I love Nixon more, but Bex and SAP really should have
• 1:00:02
  been parables voices. That's it, 28.
• 1:00:07
  Damn, with a 28, you even, yeah, even as Crave cast shield,
• 1:00:16
  expecting only to block this strike.
• 1:00:20
  A mass of stone flies up in front of you, and these are not
• 1:00:24
  your attacks. But you slice the stone in so
• 1:00:28
  many pieces that it matters not. As you bust through, clouds of
• 1:00:32
  dust and debris fall into the ground around you.
• 1:00:35
  You make contact and get through that shield.
• 1:00:37
  So roll your damage. I think parables plan here after
• 1:00:41
  the misty step is he went from just flying straight, but when
• 1:00:44
  he appears from the misty step he's spinning and he spins
• 1:00:47
  through whatever he puts in front of me with the goal to go
• 1:00:50
  through that forehead. Awesome.
• 1:00:51
  Absolutely you. Enter his third eye.
• 1:00:55
  And let's see your second attack.
• 1:00:58
  That's 21. 21 is not enough as the second attack is blocked by
• 1:01:04
  one of the stone fragments. Is able to redirect your blade
• 1:01:09
  before you make full purchase. Roll that damage with that first
• 1:01:11
  attack there. 16 total damage. As you engage that is a good 16
• 1:01:16
  damage and you've Missy stepped and taking him head on parable
• 1:01:21
  great moves that is going to be crave up next.
• 1:01:24
  But before he moves he's going to use a legendary action at the
• 1:01:28
  end of your term. Give me a strength saving throw
• 1:01:33
  23. A 23 will save here.
• 1:01:36
  So you are not bound by chains of burden that are formed from
• 1:01:42
  the stone around this divinely flying face.
• 1:01:46
  While restrained in this way, you would not have been able to
• 1:01:48
  leave the space that you were in by any means truly locked in
• 1:01:52
  space within this Demi plane, becoming akin to being a part of
• 1:01:56
  it. But you are not affected by
• 1:01:58
  that. And with that legendary action,
• 1:02:00
  what does it look like as you are not captured by these chains
• 1:02:04
  that burst out from the stone face?
• 1:02:06
  I think it's me spinning out of that move and instead of hitting
• 1:02:09
  my second attack on him, I slice the chains with the other
• 1:02:12
  attack. Absolutely fucking awesome.
• 1:02:14
  That is going to be layer action occurring up next and with that.
• 1:02:22
  Jesus, dude. Give me a Charisma saving throw.
• 1:02:25
  Parable, having garnered all, craves attention in this moment.
• 1:02:28
  Thanks, Perry. You got it. 24.
• 1:02:34
  With a 24, you do not believe this illusion and it's charming
• 1:02:38
  effects to be real, but you do feel the draw and are able to
• 1:02:42
  resist it as another Oasis appears in front of you, this
• 1:02:47
  one more astrally crafted. It swirls with water that's not
• 1:02:52
  quite water, as if it's magic mimicking water.
• 1:02:55
  As Crave says, you know not the burden of holding the cycle upon
• 1:03:00
  your shoulders. I stepped through the pools
• 1:03:04
  before I could walk. I saved the Moray before I knew
• 1:03:11
  language. If you believe yourself to be
• 1:03:16
  Shin, step through yourself and you don't feel the need to to
• 1:03:22
  prove yourself to this fragile, fragile move.
• 1:03:26
  I look him dead in the face with my pen blade to the to his
• 1:03:31
  forehead still, and I just go and I blow the Oasis away.
• 1:03:35
  I'm like, I've been through the pools.
• 1:03:37
  You've forgotten what it means to be Jin.
• 1:03:42
  You could not have you. You are mortal, and he looks
• 1:03:45
  deeper, seeing that you you wear your mortal on top and your Jin
• 1:03:51
  beneath, and with a wink you tell him truly, he has forgotten
• 1:03:56
  what it means to be Jin. Actually just turned silver for
• 1:03:58
  a second and then flashback and said I don't even need to be Jin
• 1:04:02
  to beat you. Amazing as you flash from mortal
• 1:04:05
  to immortal and back parable and fucking taciturn it is.
• 1:04:10
  Now Braves turn. Don't hurt me, relax over there.
• 1:04:17
  Rob, I am literally shaking. Those dice rolls were dramatic
• 1:04:21
  for me. Parable.
• 1:04:22
  He does not let up. Looking at you, he says.
• 1:04:28
  You will be bound by the wish and you will be my wishbound.
• 1:04:33
  Give me a Christmas saving throw.
• 1:04:36
  Holy fuck, Fuck this guy. You got it, you have it.
• 1:04:40
  It's already yours. This isn't for the frightened
• 1:04:42
  condition, is it? This is not for the frightened
• 1:04:46
  condition. Don't.
• 1:04:46
  You don't need it. It's already yours.
• 1:04:48
  Charisma. Charisma. 26. 26 beats the Save
• 1:04:53
  once more as you feel for a moment the need to turn to your
• 1:04:59
  friends and argue on the behalf of Wish, on behalf of Grave,
• 1:05:04
  telling your friends that this being is all powerful.
• 1:05:07
  It must be. This is not your thought and you
• 1:05:10
  discard it from your mind. Oh, I like to think that the
• 1:05:13
  reason I did all those wishes for count.
• 1:05:15
  Yes, is for. This moment to completely
• 1:05:18
  disregard any of the energy of the Bush bound and say and I, I
• 1:05:22
  don't say anything, I just look at him.
• 1:05:24
  Fantastic. He is furious once more, trying
• 1:05:27
  to drive down upon you. He's still not done.
• 1:05:30
  There's going to be a couple of attacks up next.
• 1:05:33
  Wow, wow, from where? Excuse.
• 1:05:37
  Me. A couple.
• 1:05:39
  Seeing you where yours in nature, he tries to prove
• 1:05:42
  himself as master of the elements, sending 2 strikes of
• 1:05:46
  stone and water at you, the first being a 17 and the second
• 1:05:52
  being a natural 20. Oh, I don't have brick, do I?
• 1:05:57
  Soraya has brick. You do not have the 17 does not
• 1:05:59
  hit. 17 does not hit the natural 20 will be hitting hard here.
• 1:06:05
  Oh. Is that a spell attack?
• 1:06:06
  Yes, this is. Yes, this is.
• 1:06:08
  I would consider this a spell attack.
• 1:06:09
  You have to roll with disadvantage because of my good
• 1:06:11
  book Shield. Whoa.
• 1:06:14
  OK, 17 stays at 17, but that natural 20 becomes instead a 25.
• 1:06:24
  It's not a crit damage. Well, it's not crit damage.
• 1:06:26
  Not crit damage, yeah, Yep. So at least you save yourself
• 1:06:28
  from the crit, but you will take some damage here.
• 1:06:30
  Oh, that's so cool that can I, can I just say in the moment I I
• 1:06:35
  peek around the shield as he he hits the shield and I'd say
• 1:06:39
  remember this. He looks.
• 1:06:44
  Yeah, I'm so. Excited dude this.
• 1:06:46
  Is so cool. Get him, get him.
• 1:06:49
  As you lift your book become shield, he says no, the book
• 1:06:54
  refused to serve me. In the end, it wouldn't choose
• 1:06:58
  another, and you feel the voice of a God shake the ground
• 1:07:03
  beneath you and the sky around you.
• 1:07:08
  That's so cool. With you stopping that crit that
• 1:07:10
  becomes instead just 12 damage. Here Parable.
• 1:07:13
  Fantastic stuff. You have gotten through the turn
• 1:07:16
  of a God itself and that is the end of its turn.
• 1:07:20
  Fan fucking tastic stuff there Parable that is going to be Next
• 1:07:23
  up Zin. Dude, can we take a breather?
• 1:07:28
  Breather for a second? Holy shit.
• 1:07:29
  Dude. There was so many important
• 1:07:31
  roles that I was like, I'm going to get that one, I'm going to
• 1:07:34
  get that one. I'm halfling.
• 1:07:35
  It's OK if I get one that one. I can't get through that one
• 1:07:37
  though. Well done.
• 1:07:40
  OK so Zen watching parable do this in awe.
• 1:07:45
  She is going to whisper to Akuma and say akuma.
• 1:07:49
  I, I think I'm going to, I, I, you know what?
• 1:07:52
  I know I'm going to need my big Smokey guy.
• 1:07:56
  Remember when all my kind of my essence got sucked away?
• 1:07:58
  Yeah, yeah, I'm still kind of tidy.
• 1:08:01
  Do you think I could? I could make a difference.
• 1:08:04
  I think so and her charm is going to like break.
• 1:08:09
  It's her final use of the charm from the well and Akuma is going
• 1:08:14
  to be a nightmare. As you see Akuma take a bigger
• 1:08:22
  form but he still looks at you and he says more within your
• 1:08:26
  mind now do you think I can make a difference?
• 1:08:33
  I. Know you can make a difference
• 1:08:36
  and you already have anything you give more from this point is
• 1:08:39
  just I'm sitting on the cake. You Zen.
• 1:08:42
  Shut up, Zen. It's been you the whole time.
• 1:08:47
  Older. From burning down the candle to
• 1:08:50
  escaping Domi to fighting the hunger spirit or the wish drink
• 1:08:55
  or whatever want we so many names for that thing right?
• 1:08:59
  It was almost always use it. I draw upon your power.
• 1:09:09
  My power? Well, take as much as you need.
• 1:09:13
  Go get him. He nods, and as you say, go get
• 1:09:17
  him. Has a little bit more pep in his
• 1:09:19
  step as he charges outward. Do you ride upon him or do you
• 1:09:24
  just send him outward? Fuck it, we ball.
• 1:09:26
  I'm going to ride this boy. OK, bad bad ass I.
• 1:09:30
  Think she pulls out her pack. This is her action is to use
• 1:09:33
  this charm, but she'll she's still going to pull out her her
• 1:09:36
  blade and whip her chain and be on the back of Akuma.
• 1:09:41
  I like the idea of the shadow of the wolf, though.
• 1:09:44
  Is you like it's just it's the symbology of of that.
• 1:09:48
  Find out that this has all been you.
• 1:09:51
  Open me the whole time. In the sky, Akuma size wise
• 1:09:55
  looks about to be the same size as the like of a size with the
• 1:09:59
  stone face that parable takes on.
• 1:10:01
  Both huge in all rights as Akuma takes on nightmare form.
• 1:10:07
  OK, zoomies as Akuma gallops, gallops gallops into the sky.
• 1:10:13
  Then jumps on the back of akuma blade and chain and hand points
• 1:10:17
  her blade at crave and says you call yourself a master yet two
• 1:10:24
  of your elementals have left your control take.
• 1:10:29
  That they are a part of me. They have.
• 1:10:32
  And he feels a loss you can see on his face as he says no, the
• 1:10:39
  water and stone obeys me still. And it does, because he's a
• 1:10:44
  fucking Wizard of he's a God. Yeah, of course it does.
• 1:10:47
  But he knows, and you can see it on his face as once more you
• 1:10:51
  make an all powerful being hesitate.
• 1:10:54
  Be afraid. Be afraid.
• 1:10:57
  And you have disadvantage on decks for my hex.
• 1:10:59
  Good to know. And then Akuma will go in the
• 1:11:01
  initiative after me. Awesome, and as you rise up,
• 1:11:04
  that is Akuma up next then badass.
• 1:11:07
  Parable feels heat on his face from behind.
• 1:11:09
  Zen, are you doing the thing again?
• 1:11:12
  Yeah, I'm doing it again. Oh God, I'll get out of the way.
• 1:11:15
  OK, I think my aim. 'S got a lot better though.
• 1:11:19
  Hot. Yeah, Akuma breath weapon.
• 1:11:21
  Awesome. Does it still appear as a breath
• 1:11:23
  weapon coming out of this nightmare steed that you ride?
• 1:11:26
  Yeah, Awesome. Definitely this Smokey horse's
• 1:11:30
  breathing fire. Awesome, that was terrifying.
• 1:11:32
  The Smokey horse and its mane and tail are fire.
• 1:11:36
  Beautiful, as Akuma says. So cool.
• 1:11:42
  You're going to need to roll a. Duck save.
• 1:11:44
  Awesome. Tell you what that is in a
• 1:11:46
  moment. That is just an iron all told.
• 1:11:49
  Oh OK, this big Stony face fails.
• 1:11:53
  Not very dexterous and he's going to take 11 fire damage.
• 1:11:59
  Amazing stuff here. Do you have any other words for
• 1:12:03
  this fire damage as you hit home with Akuma's breath weapon?
• 1:12:07
  Let the fire cleanse you. I am pure.
• 1:12:11
  I will send beyond godhood, beyond the need for worship from
• 1:12:15
  mortal fleas like you as you do this damage.
• 1:12:21
  He is quite obviously off balance.
• 1:12:24
  It's stuff that is going to be Next up, a legendary action from
• 1:12:29
  Crave before we get to Cassie's turn.
• 1:12:32
  Zen, having made yourself known to this individual, give me a
• 1:12:35
  Strength saving throw +2. 14. Plus three.
• 1:12:40
  Sorry, +3. 15 Fortune's favor. You'll need it.
• 1:12:48
  Oh, you got it. I'm going to use Dark One's own
• 1:12:51
  luck and add a 1D10 roll to that and pray to Soraya she's a bad
• 1:12:59
  bitch. Loves her Mama.
• 1:13:08
  That's just the I eat, OK? I'm at 15 right now, 17. 17 is
• 1:13:17
  just yes, yes. What?
• 1:13:20
  What is dark ones on luck that freezes?
• 1:13:24
  Space is so cute. Oh Lord gives me stuff.
• 1:13:27
  I'm asking all the questions. The dark ones give me stuff.
• 1:13:30
  Mind your business. I don't know.
• 1:13:32
  I'm from hell. Chains and whips.
• 1:13:37
  Zen, I would say that these chains are broken, but I don't
• 1:13:40
  think that is true. I think you just feel authority
• 1:13:43
  over them. As they fly towards you, they
• 1:13:46
  stop a centimeter away from your skin.
• 1:13:50
  Yeah, I think Zen would like whip her own chain and then take
• 1:13:53
  the rest of her movement just to kind of get away from the face.
• 1:13:56
  Amazing. Yes, leaving and winding between
• 1:14:00
  thousands and thousands of links of chain of stone and flame and
• 1:14:05
  steel. That is Next up, Cassie.
• 1:14:07
  Amazing. Can you describe one more time
• 1:14:10
  sort of how Crave is visually presenting himself?
• 1:14:13
  Like how is it made possible? Is it actual stone and sand?
• 1:14:17
  Is it? Yes.
• 1:14:17
  The face that Parable is fighting is a face probably 20
• 1:14:23
  by 20 feet in rough measures. No, that's smaller than I
• 1:14:27
  thought. It's fluctuated in size because
• 1:14:29
  it's made of, you know, fragments of stone that continue
• 1:14:32
  to gather, but it's again, much more of an avatar of a force
• 1:14:36
  that you feel represented all around you.
• 1:14:38
  You could look anywhere and cast a spell upon it.
• 1:14:41
  That thing seems to be presenting itself as a means of
• 1:14:44
  physical combat, sure, for its own purposes as well.
• 1:14:47
  All right, and we can fly. I think you do naturally fly in
• 1:14:51
  this plane and it's about your walking speed.
• 1:14:53
  Sweet. But you also have, I think,
• 1:14:55
  means of flight. I absolutely do.
• 1:14:57
  I am going to use my cloud. You hear Soraya in your mind
• 1:15:02
  somewhere back there. My lucky cloud.
• 1:15:05
  She found it somehow. Warm fuzzies, but short lived
• 1:15:08
  warm fuzzies because I would like to use my flying cloud to
• 1:15:12
  get to crave. That's it, Flying up towards
• 1:15:16
  Crave. How close do you want to engage?
• 1:15:18
  How much movement speed are you rocking with that cloud?
• 1:15:21
  My thousand league cloud has 60 feet of flying speed if it's
• 1:15:24
  carrying less than 4. £100 Fantastic.
• 1:15:27
  So just enough speed to get straight to crave.
• 1:15:29
  Are you engaging melee? Are you keeping any distance as
• 1:15:32
  you fly up there? I'm going to have to touch him
• 1:15:34
  as I attempt to cast Contagion. Fucking awesome as you do.
• 1:15:40
  So is this a spell attack roll? This is so I will.
• 1:15:42
  Become visible. Fantastic as you are invisible
• 1:15:45
  right now, you just are a cloud floating into the sky and so
• 1:15:50
  perfectly enter this combat you find your opportunity to strike.
• 1:15:54
  Amazing, I misspoke. It's not a spell attack, it's a
• 1:15:57
  Constitution saving throw on his part.
• 1:16:00
  Let's see this. Is anyone imposing anything on
• 1:16:06
  this roll? I'm going to impose my cosmic
• 1:16:09
  omen of woe, so I'm going to roll AD 6 and he will have to
• 1:16:13
  subtract that from his saving throw.
• 1:16:16
  And fucking tastic. Okay, cool.
• 1:16:18
  Let me roll my D6. Craig will subtract A1 from his
• 1:16:23
  saving through and I have foresight currently activated so
• 1:16:26
  he will roll this with a disadvantage.
• 1:16:28
  Jam Okay, Cosmic omen of -1 and disadvantage, that's a three and
• 1:16:34
  a one on the die. So I don't think that is saving
• 1:16:38
  here. To 0 actually sure isn't.
• 1:16:40
  Hit me with that. You're right, that is a zero.
• 1:16:42
  Wow. Holy shit.
• 1:16:43
  Fate is on your fucking side, Cassie.
• 1:16:46
  My touch is going to inflict a magical contagion on Crave.
• 1:16:50
  He's going to take 11-D8 necrotic damage and have the
• 1:16:54
  poisoned condition. I like to imagine this is just
• 1:16:57
  like rock decaying. He's disintegrating like
• 1:17:02
  limestone. Eroding.
• 1:17:04
  Amazing, I'm looking at his immunities and I gave him
• 1:17:08
  immunities to so many things and not poisoned.
• 1:17:11
  I get to choose one ability when I cast the spell, and I'm going
• 1:17:15
  to choose Constitution. So while he's poisoned, he's
• 1:17:18
  going to have disadvantage on saving throws made with that
• 1:17:21
  chosen ability of Constitution. Awesome crumbling stone and
• 1:17:26
  debris starts to fall off as your touch corrupts this already
• 1:17:31
  corrupted mad God. You just exacerbate a problem
• 1:17:34
  that has already been in there. Let's roll that damage.
• 1:17:37
  It's. Going to be 59.
• 1:17:41
  Damage. Fuck yeah you do.
• 1:17:43
  Oh my Cassie. Great stuff, Cassie.
• 1:17:47
  What? What does?
• 1:17:49
  Zen, Zen, Do you see the rock cracking?
• 1:17:52
  Is that Cass? The sky is falling apart.
• 1:17:57
  No, Cass, sometimes you got to get sicker before you get
• 1:18:00
  better. Yes, yes, good call as you touch
• 1:18:03
  this Stony face with this contagion spell.
• 1:18:05
  I think part of it, as it always is, is star song as I just
• 1:18:09
  imagined. Vibrations breaking bits of the
• 1:18:11
  stone as your contagion invades, craves already corrupted nature.
• 1:18:19
  A little bit more about the Contagion spell.
• 1:18:21
  So Crave must repeat the saving through at the end of every
• 1:18:24
  single one of his turns until he gets 3 successes or failures.
• 1:18:28
  If he succeeds on three of the saves, the spell ends on him,
• 1:18:32
  but if he fails on three of the saves, the spell will last for
• 1:18:35
  seven. Days.
• 1:18:36
  Damn. OK.
• 1:18:37
  Whenever the poison target receives an effect that would
• 1:18:40
  end the poisoned condition, the target must succeed on a
• 1:18:43
  Constitution saving throw of which he has disadvantage.
• 1:18:46
  Fantastic. Or the poison condition doesn't
• 1:18:49
  end on it. OK, fantastic stuff.
• 1:18:51
  Anything else on your turn here, Cassie?
• 1:18:54
  Yes, all right, I am going to, as a bonus action, expend the
• 1:18:59
  use of Wild Shape to take OnStar reform.
• 1:19:02
  Fantastic. What does this look like,
• 1:19:03
  Cassie, as you take on your Star Reform?
• 1:19:07
  I think because I'm doing it right in Crave's face, my body
• 1:19:10
  becoming luminous and shedding that bright light.
• 1:19:14
  I wonder if I'm near enough to his face or his cheek to really
• 1:19:17
  like, give him hell by blinding him for a moment.
• 1:19:22
  Obviously no extra damage, but just being inconvenient.
• 1:19:25
  When we play video games as a group, we used to say we made
• 1:19:28
  that really annoying for them, even when we lose.
• 1:19:31
  And that's sort of the sentiment here of like, can I be a pest?
• 1:19:35
  Absolutely. And you are with your Star
• 1:19:37
  Reform these days, I believe you're able to take like a more
• 1:19:40
  offensive version, right? With the Dragon constellation or
• 1:19:43
  the chalice? Are you rocking the more
• 1:19:45
  offensive version of your consolation?
• 1:19:47
  I'm going to say I haven't yet. Just a mix of shooting stars and
• 1:19:50
  cosmos as you rise to meet Crave, taking on the star form
• 1:19:55
  and corrupting his nature with the contagion of star song you.
• 1:20:01
  Lay low this God once more, and that is going to be back to the
• 1:20:05
  top of the order with parable. Oh cool, Parable's going to look
• 1:20:10
  at his friends and say welcome to the fight.
• 1:20:14
  Parable's going to pull out the tribe metal stone.
• 1:20:17
  Badass. He's going to close his eyes and
• 1:20:22
  he's going to use everything in him and dive into the forehead
• 1:20:28
  with the stone outreach. As you make your strike, give me
• 1:20:32
  an attack roll here. With Parable constantly going
• 1:20:34
  for like the third eye, it's like getting lightened, bitch.
• 1:20:39
  Ascend. I love that we're all.
• 1:20:42
  Swarmed around his face right now, Yeah, we're like so close
• 1:20:45
  to him. And is this the right?
• 1:20:46
  Move using this now. Should I keep it tipped?
• 1:20:48
  I think so, yeah. Hold on to it.
• 1:20:51
  And seeing no weak point, you make your own.
• 1:20:53
  OK. Cool.
• 1:20:57
  I'm going to use forces favorite.
• 1:20:58
  There you go. Can I roll with advantage with
• 1:21:00
  the luck point? You can roll with advantage if
• 1:21:03
  you want to make this a lucky roll and you are adding your
• 1:21:06
  decks and I will also allow you to add your proficiency.
• 1:21:14
  That's a 19. A 19 would hit, but instead the
• 1:21:21
  shield rises and trimetal blade is dash to the side as just as
• 1:21:29
  you want to make your strike home, the shield raises and a
• 1:21:33
  fragment of stone bashes your spray just from getting home.
• 1:21:36
  It's OK, Parable. Can I use a second attack?
• 1:21:39
  You do have, yeah, you have a second attack.
• 1:21:40
  Can I use another left point for an advantage?
• 1:21:42
  Yeah, absolutely. Declaring a lucky role.
• 1:21:44
  Let's see that attack with advantage here.
• 1:21:49
  That didn't do it. That's a 16 maximum.
• 1:21:52
  Damn, not enough to hit or 18? 18. 18 still with the shield
• 1:21:56
  still active is not going to hit.
• 1:21:59
  Parable trying to find a spot, bashing himself into it, then
• 1:22:03
  bashing himself into it again is just going to turn to his
• 1:22:06
  friends. And I'm going to use my Channel
• 1:22:10
  Divinity Wishcraft command and release a word of power, present
• 1:22:15
  my shield. And as a bonus action, I'm going
• 1:22:17
  to choose the number of creatures at 30 feet of me up to
• 1:22:19
  three. And until the start of the next
• 1:22:20
  turn, the chosen creatures can use a bonus action to either
• 1:22:22
  take the dash, disengage action, And as part of using channel
• 1:22:25
  division in this way, you can also take the dash or disengage
• 1:22:28
  action. Awesome.
• 1:22:29
  Cool, Very cool. Yeah, so I'm going to just turn
• 1:22:32
  to my friends and say it didn't work and something's going to
• 1:22:34
  glow out of my shield and you're both going to be able to do
• 1:22:36
  that. Awesome.
• 1:22:37
  Do you disengage actively? Because it sounds like you can
• 1:22:39
  do that. Yeah.
• 1:22:40
  Cool. Awesome.
• 1:22:41
  As you disengage out of melee range, you do give yourself a
• 1:22:44
  little bit of space away from this God that seems to have
• 1:22:47
  risen up in anger just as you were about to strike.
• 1:22:50
  True. And it continues to rise towards
• 1:22:54
  you. And with a legendary action at
• 1:22:56
  the end of your turn parable, it is going to once more try to hit
• 1:23:01
  you with some stone and water strikes here.
• 1:23:04
  And these legendary actions aren't his turn.
• 1:23:06
  No legendary actions occur at the end of other creatures terms
• 1:23:09
  with a 15 on both die that is still going to hit here,
• 1:23:15
  becoming a 27. Yeah, that'll that'll hit.
• 1:23:21
  There's going to be 16 damage with that legendary action, and
• 1:23:24
  now to craves turn proper as you're being bashed with stone
• 1:23:28
  and water, he says. I tire of the games I have held
• 1:23:37
  the burden of imbalance. The cycle is broken.
• 1:23:41
  If I cannot restore it, I must become it.
• 1:23:46
  I become the wind. I become the stone.
• 1:23:51
  I become your doom. And he casts steel.
• 1:23:57
  Wind strike. Did I use a reaction?
• 1:24:01
  Yeah, I think I'm going to use Drink Wish using my Channel
• 1:24:04
  Divinity. I'm going to interrupt him
• 1:24:06
  because he's within 30 feet and he's casting a spell.
• 1:24:09
  I use a reaction when I see a creature with a range casting a
• 1:24:11
  spell to present my holy symbol and interrupt it.
• 1:24:13
  The spell fails and has no effect.
• 1:24:15
  It is a level no higher than 6. When it does, you gain 3
• 1:24:19
  temporary hit points plus five times the spell's level.
• 1:24:23
  This was the spell to cast that on because this is a fifth level
• 1:24:26
  spell and it fails automatically against your Jin nature.
• 1:24:31
  This would have been 5 spell attack rolls that I would have
• 1:24:35
  rolled at each of you, as many as I could get out.
• 1:24:38
  You flourish a weapon using the cast and then strike like the
• 1:24:40
  wind. Choose up to five creatures you
• 1:24:41
  can see within range. So each of you would have taken
• 1:24:43
  the spell attack, but instead of taking that attacking a possible
• 1:24:47
  6010 damage parable. As the winds rise, you tell them
• 1:24:52
  to calm, and they do. I just exhale deeply and then I
• 1:24:57
  instead of a wish flick, it's more of like a snap and it
• 1:25:02
  implodes this time. Amazing.
• 1:25:04
  It goes between my fingers, then I snap.
• 1:25:07
  You see parable snap and the soundlessness of a vacuum is
• 1:25:11
  followed by I knew it was coming and that is a great reaction.
• 1:25:18
  Well. His turn's not over.
• 1:25:20
  He's got to take some saving throws against Contagion.
• 1:25:22
  And how many backs back? What's my damn?
• 1:25:24
  It. How?
• 1:25:25
  Many backs do I get it's five times, whatever that spell. 25
• 1:25:28
  hit points. 25 Parable thinks of Zen, and he's never done this
• 1:25:33
  before with drink wish, but when the snap implodes, it goes in
• 1:25:36
  him and he looks at Zen. It's like, is this what it feels
• 1:25:39
  like? Yeah, yeah, it'll be over soon.
• 1:25:42
  Just deep breaths in through the nose, out through the mouth, in
• 1:25:46
  through the nose, out through the mouth.
• 1:25:47
  All he does is seeing the elements not come to this call.
• 1:25:53
  Grave misty steps. Essentially he has a longer
• 1:25:57
  distance misty step, but he wins steps 60 feet away.
• 1:26:01
  Retreating a bit from this fight, he says, I rise into the
• 1:26:06
  sky to gain a better view upon the imposters I am to crush.
• 1:26:11
  Come. Uh huh.
• 1:26:12
  It will be your end. You just keep pretending you're
• 1:26:15
  in control. That's crazy.
• 1:26:16
  Turn you. OK, he's going to roll his for
• 1:26:20
  poisoned. Oh yes, what's the save?
• 1:26:22
  On with disadvantage. With disadvantage, he still
• 1:26:26
  rolls a 21, so that will still be a save there.
• 1:26:30
  One success, 1, success of the three and on the same
• 1:26:33
  initiative, initiative 20. Let's get to that layer action.
• 1:26:36
  Oh. Yeah, that.
• 1:26:39
  Another one, that little guy. For this effect, I think I have
• 1:26:43
  justification for saying that his attention zeroes are not
• 1:26:47
  parable who has been so in his face about betraying his own
• 1:26:52
  nature. Leave the little guy alone.
• 1:26:55
  So rude. Pick on someone your own size.
• 1:26:57
  Parable, give me a Wisdom saving throw.
• 1:27:02
  Parables larger than life. Athlings don't roll in that
• 1:27:07
  ones. See, it's already yours.
• 1:27:11
  That's a 25. Oh.
• 1:27:13
  Baby girl. For a moment, as Crave backs and
• 1:27:19
  rises into the sky, summoned before you, in the space between
• 1:27:25
  you appears ever but no, not ahead of shadow and wish flame,
• 1:27:32
  but nonetheless a living wish, this one much more elegant and
• 1:27:38
  stride. It wears blade at its side, as
• 1:27:43
  it says, I am thou, guardian of wish, guardian of crave.
• 1:27:55
  I lead the lands of fortune. I will be your and evil doer.
• 1:28:00
  As you see that wish, his living wish, Riah was one from luck,
• 1:28:05
  ever was one from time. And as you see this to be the
• 1:28:10
  illusion that it is not truly summoned, you do see that it
• 1:28:13
  comes from truth. As you look closer, this is like
• 1:28:17
  it looks like what Wish would have imagined as a boy to be a
• 1:28:21
  hero. His living wish looks like an
• 1:28:24
  honorable knight, a wandering errant swordsman, eager to do
• 1:28:29
  well, eager to aid, eager to protect.
• 1:28:33
  And he claims you to be the evil doer.
• 1:28:36
  And as you know this not to be true, you are in no way taken in
• 1:28:40
  by this effect. You will take half damage here,
• 1:28:43
  but you will not be forced into an altercation.
• 1:28:46
  You could have been taken out of this fight, forced to fight
• 1:28:48
  one-on-one, with this being of both illusion but also tangible
• 1:28:52
  essence. And the illusion sticking
• 1:28:53
  around. It's like more ghostly in your
• 1:28:55
  vision now and he just he watches you from the corner of
• 1:28:57
  your eye like a ghost. You know in him to be false.
• 1:29:00
  We all have a little evil in US. That is going to be 18 1/2 to 9
• 1:29:05
  damage. Parable says your oath is faulty
• 1:29:07
  and I don't need it in my life right now.
• 1:29:09
  And he just sweeps a sailor and starts slow walking and his wing
• 1:29:12
  in boots towards grave. My vow is 1 of devotion, one
• 1:29:15
  that I see that you've broken. I can smell it upon you.
• 1:29:18
  Oath breaker. I'm devoted to myself and my
• 1:29:20
  friends. I don't need an oath for that.
• 1:29:23
  His voice continues, but you don't hear it anymore as it is
• 1:29:27
  in the back of your mind where it needs to be right now, that
• 1:29:30
  is. Next up, Zen.
• 1:29:31
  I just have. To say this is parable, slow
• 1:29:36
  walking, flying. Oh, she's standing up.
• 1:29:38
  She's. Standing up, this is still going
• 1:29:40
  to be a blooper. I'm not.
• 1:29:41
  Yes, it is. Yes.
• 1:29:45
  It is Strut your stuff. Being mean time to think as a
• 1:29:47
  player and you just pull up like.
• 1:29:49
  Like a model runway. Amazing.
• 1:29:52
  It's just the image was so pure. It was.
• 1:29:55
  It was awesome. OK, so terrible's killing it.
• 1:29:59
  Go terrible. Zen is going to turn back on
• 1:30:05
  Akuma's back. Turn around.
• 1:30:08
  Back into the fight. She's got her sword in her hand
• 1:30:12
  and she's going to say Ignis and it's going to light up.
• 1:30:16
  She's going to fly straight at Crave and do some pack.
• 1:30:22
  Weapon strikes. Awesome, let's see it.
• 1:30:25
  OK so because I have pack weapon this is where the warlocks go.
• 1:30:30
  Crazy. I'm going to hit once and then
• 1:30:34
  Thirsting Blade I can hit again and then I have Devouring Blade.
• 1:30:38
  Devouring Blade, The extra attack on your Thirsting Blade
• 1:30:40
  invocation confers two extra attacks rather than one, so I
• 1:30:44
  get to 3 times. So you are attacking 3 times.
• 1:30:47
  Three times, and because it's on flame on fire, there's a 2D6
• 1:30:52
  added. I believe he is also hexed as
• 1:30:54
  well right now, so you'll Andy's hexed.
• 1:30:56
  Yes. So with that being said.
• 1:30:58
  Let's roll some dice. Rave's shield is still up for
• 1:31:01
  the round, but let's see those attacks.
• 1:31:02
  OK, good to know. 23 for the first. 23 hits.
• 1:31:09
  Awesome. OK, 4 slashing damage and five
• 1:31:14
  fire. Thurston Blade 18 hit. 18 does
• 1:31:18
  not. That's OK look cool why I did it
• 1:31:23
  and devouring blade. I'm going to use fortune favor
• 1:31:27
  to re roll this 18, but I'm going to roll Dark One's own
• 1:31:32
  luck 21. 21 will hit OK. You're going to do 5 slashing
• 1:31:41
  and 10 fire. Fantastic.
• 1:31:44
  Good stuff there. And because I hit twice, he's
• 1:31:47
  going to take 2D6 necrotic. Awesome, rocking 24 damage so
• 1:31:53
  far. Let's see those hex rolls. 8
• 1:31:56
  necrotic damage and. Tastic 32 damage, all toll.
• 1:32:01
  Let's rot. Oh yeah.
• 1:32:05
  Sweating. Great stuff.
• 1:32:06
  That is just your action so far. Any bonus?
• 1:32:08
  Oh, you bonus action Ignis, right?
• 1:32:10
  Yeah, OK, cool. Your sword forms though.
• 1:32:13
  That's so. Cool, while we're here, Akuma is
• 1:32:15
  going to hit him again with a breath weapon.
• 1:32:17
  Absol fucking lutely he is. So I need another deck save from
• 1:32:21
  grave. With disadvantage 14.
• 1:32:26
  That fails the deck save, so he will take 46 fire damage,
• 1:32:30
  equating to 20 fire damage from A.
• 1:32:34
  Yes, guys, awesome stuff. That's.
• 1:32:36
  What I got for you? Amazing.
• 1:32:40
  Just swinging, just slashing, very similar to the sword forms
• 1:32:46
  you've always done, but the blade of flame is meters long as
• 1:32:52
  you slice through stone and water, breaking through the
• 1:32:55
  shield of a God itself. That is going to be Cassie up
• 1:32:58
  next. So he's moved how many feet away
• 1:33:02
  from where he was 60? Originally he was 60 feet away.
• 1:33:05
  He's moved another 60 feet from that.
• 1:33:07
  So he's 120 feet away from the corridor that you guys
• 1:33:10
  originally started in? But only 60 feet away from where
• 1:33:13
  we were just recently touching him, correct?
• 1:33:15
  Sweet. I would like to fly with my
• 1:33:18
  thousand league cloud 30 feet towards him.
• 1:33:21
  Awesome, where I'm going to cast light?
• 1:33:23
  Bringing the darkest of star song down upon this God.
• 1:33:28
  What is your blight do here and what am I rolling?
• 1:33:31
  So you will be rolling a Constitution saving throw on
• 1:33:34
  which you have disadvantage. I fucking know.
• 1:33:37
  You're going to take 88 necrotic damage if you fail and half as
• 1:33:41
  much if you succeed. Is any part of Crave a plant
• 1:33:45
  creature? No, no, no.
• 1:33:47
  I figure it is a plant creature here.
• 1:33:48
  Well, Even so, I hope that these actions continue to make him
• 1:33:52
  feel unsteady, like he is embodying a state of decay.
• 1:33:58
  He, I think, truly is as you bring your energy to bear
• 1:34:03
  against him, instead of rolling that 18, he instead will roll
• 1:34:06
  this 8, which does become a 17. Does not succeed.
• 1:34:11
  A substitution saving throw has to be an 18 for this spell.
• 1:34:14
  Wow. OK ban fucking tastic.
• 1:34:17
  Roll that damage. He is going to take 31 damage.
• 1:34:23
  Fantastic. Good stuff y'all.
• 1:34:27
  Now that I'm in my starry form, I am going to channel that
• 1:34:30
  dragon constellation. So a constellation of a wise
• 1:34:34
  dragon, I imagine one that emanates the energy of
• 1:34:37
  Zephandria is going to appear on me.
• 1:34:40
  And then when you make Intelligence or Wisdom checks or
• 1:34:43
  Constitution saving throws, I can treat a role of a nine or
• 1:34:46
  lower on the D20 as a 10. Nice.
• 1:34:49
  Awesome. A fantastic turn as you take on
• 1:34:51
  your Dragon Star Consolation, evoking the feeling of
• 1:34:54
  Sophondria. You can almost hear her in your
• 1:34:57
  mind as she cheers you on across time and space.
• 1:35:00
  I miss. Her.
• 1:35:02
  I miss her too. And with the legendary action
• 1:35:06
  occurring on the end of your turn, hopefully it's enough to
• 1:35:10
  keep you going. I mean, he's kind of just feel
• 1:35:13
  like a big old wimp. Morale is low.
• 1:35:16
  With the legendary action Cassie.
• 1:35:18
  No save here, you are burned from within, this is his domain
• 1:35:23
  and he rebukes you. Stars scream within you and you
• 1:35:28
  are going to take some damage here.
• 1:35:29
  No save, no attack roll, just burns you from the inside out as
• 1:35:34
  this is his domain for 23 damage.
• 1:35:39
  Can I use my charm? If you have your reaction
• 1:35:41
  available. I'd like to use my Charm of
• 1:35:44
  Balance, which has been imbued by Soraya, my mom.
• 1:35:49
  So instead of feeling half of that damage back, it's going to
• 1:35:53
  double that damage. And.
• 1:35:55
  Redirect it back at Crave. This ability is called Wish
• 1:35:58
  Flare. It's him essentially using the
• 1:36:01
  fragment of Wish just to wish your end as best as he can.
• 1:36:05
  Before you can sense his intent upon that, you know that the
• 1:36:10
  next thing that he's going to do is try to end one of you quickly
• 1:36:14
  and suddenly. And as you feel that intent upon
• 1:36:18
  you take that damage, you send it right back, resonating it
• 1:36:22
  back at a two time force. You hit hard.
• 1:36:26
  You just took 23 damage, so that's 46 damage back at this
• 1:36:30
  thing as grave rocks in the sky, Stony face thrown off from the
• 1:36:37
  impact. What does it look like to you?
• 1:36:39
  I'm not sure what it looks like, but I think it feels like Cassie
• 1:36:43
  experiencing real terror for a moment and like the survival
• 1:36:48
  instinct kicks in where you don't have capacity for terror
• 1:36:51
  anymore, you only have the strength and the reaction of
• 1:36:56
  spite or anger or rebuttal. Knowing that this charm
• 1:37:02
  originally given to me by Mojo and then imbued by my mom is
• 1:37:06
  what's allowing me to do this. I think it's probably a closed
• 1:37:10
  eyes part on fire kind of feeling where Cassie just puts
• 1:37:14
  her hands out and extends that energy into the space between
• 1:37:18
  her and Crave. Rocked back by your turn of
• 1:37:21
  impact, you rewrite the balance of the universe a little bit as
• 1:37:26
  you knock this God down a peg, sending his own energy back.
• 1:37:31
  And with that, we will be back at the top of the order with
• 1:37:34
  Parable. OK.
• 1:37:37
  Is there any role I can make to see if it'd be better to just go
• 1:37:40
  for this thing with attacks versus this Trimetal thing?
• 1:37:43
  Give me an insight role. That's a 22 with a 22.
• 1:37:51
  You see the weapon in your hand and it rings of powers 3.
• 1:37:57
  Dispelling his divinity would obviously weaken him.
• 1:37:59
  It also might make him more erratic, change his abilities.
• 1:38:03
  You don't know what might come next, but you know that if you
• 1:38:07
  want to change the tide in this battle, it's a good weapon to
• 1:38:11
  use. That's not to say it's the only
• 1:38:13
  weapon to use. OK, Parable is going to.
• 1:38:17
  He's going to look where his friends have weakened Rave.
• 1:38:21
  He's 60 feet away from me right now.
• 1:38:23
  Yes, he is. Wind stepped 60 feet away, so
• 1:38:25
  you'll have to close in. Yeah, I'm going to use all my
• 1:38:28
  movements and misty step as well, and I'm going to use my 2
• 1:38:33
  attacks and I'm going to turn 1 luck point to give one
• 1:38:38
  advantage. Awesome.
• 1:38:39
  You feel one of the metals sing a little bit louder as you put
• 1:38:43
  luck within it. Although it's not exactly luck,
• 1:38:46
  not exactly fate, not exactly whatever it was before that.
• 1:38:50
  It is the power that balances, and perhaps you may balance the
• 1:38:54
  scales here as well. Yeah, I think parable let's go
• 1:38:57
  of the idea of parable and becomes whatever is holding the
• 1:39:02
  stone. Whatever the story needs, you
• 1:39:04
  will become it. First was a 19.
• 1:39:11
  A 19 would hit, but the shield rises.
• 1:39:16
  Once more, OK. Into this new round.
• 1:39:20
  I have one roll left. I will say, taking up his
• 1:39:23
  reactions means that you've taken up his ability to use
• 1:39:25
  counter spell. Good.
• 1:39:26
  That is no small feat. I'm going to use my Lux sword.
• 1:39:31
  OK, awesome. So that is able to use,
• 1:39:34
  especially retroactively. That's a 24 to hit.
• 1:39:39
  A 24 hits. Really a. 24 will hit here as
• 1:39:43
  even the shield that he raises of stone and water and shards of
• 1:39:48
  magic is not enough. You breakthrough and hit true.
• 1:39:53
  What does this look like to you? Because it's the Lux sword, I
• 1:39:57
  think I'm jamming the stone into this spot.
• 1:40:00
  I'm just halted stop as I leaped at the forehead of this giant
• 1:40:04
  face again. I grabbed the pen blade,
• 1:40:07
  imagining the fall in the well, and I just stabbed it right into
• 1:40:10
  that space. And then I stabbed with my other
• 1:40:12
  hand right over it with the with the rock.
• 1:40:14
  Amazing luck hopefully. Absolutely.
• 1:40:17
  Giving all the luck that you have given to you by friends,
• 1:40:20
  allies, and all those who have come before you.
• 1:40:24
  You strike true. I scream.
• 1:40:29
  Not just by mine, but by our last breath.
• 1:40:32
  Just go. We're going to roll something
• 1:40:37
  very important. ADC 30 Charisma save so wish if
• 1:40:43
  he succeeds here maintains his divine essence.
• 1:40:47
  OK. If returned to mortal form, he
• 1:40:50
  will then make a Constitution saving throw, which will incur 1
• 1:40:54
  to 4 levels of exhaustion. That could drastically change
• 1:40:57
  this fight. So with that, I'm going to get
• 1:41:00
  the Tower of Duma. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:41:03
  Tower of all. Right, everybody.
• 1:41:04
  Take a breath, everyone. Oh yeah, I stopped breathing
• 1:41:06
  there. I was holding my breath.
• 1:41:08
  That's why I said. It's ADC 30 charisma save which
• 1:41:12
  has a + 5 to this, so a natural 20 is needed. 14 on the dye bait
• 1:41:22
  is on your side, as we knew it would be.
• 1:41:28
  I I think there's tears in parables eyes and gritted teeth
• 1:41:31
  that he's just hammering that stone over and over again in
• 1:41:34
  that one spot. Amazing.
• 1:41:35
  You feel chunks of his divinity Slough off with every bit
• 1:41:39
  because it was never divinity, if anything it was deity, and if
• 1:41:43
  anything it was his own dogma that supported it.
• 1:41:47
  So with a constitution saving throw that is also equally
• 1:41:50
  important. Disadvantage.
• 1:41:52
  That is OK. That is especially important
• 1:41:58
  because DC 20 to take no levels of exhaustion.
• 1:42:02
  DC15110253 or anything below A2 4 levels of exhaustion.
• 1:42:10
  With a + 9 to this he has a much better chance here, but still
• 1:42:13
  with this advantage. 1/2 Ling Jin chasing down Oh God.
• 1:42:21
  With an 8 becoming a 17, his divinity is stripped from him.
• 1:42:25
  He is no longer immortal, no longer able to regenerate
• 1:42:28
  himself upon these planes, but he takes only one level of
• 1:42:33
  exhaustion as he does. That will be a -, 2 to any
• 1:42:37
  attack rolls, saving throws, or anything that comes at you guys
• 1:42:40
  or you guys send at him. He will also take a little bit
• 1:42:44
  of damage here. You guys want to roll this or
• 1:42:46
  should I? You got this.
• 1:42:48
  You go for it. OK.
• 1:42:50
  It's kind of. Satisfying to watch you roll
• 1:42:51
  damage on. Your own big daddy.
• 1:42:53
  This is 10 D, 10 damage. Wow.
• 1:42:56
  Yeah, roll it. That is 45 damage as you have
• 1:43:05
  brave pieces of divinity cracking off of them and
• 1:43:09
  plummeting from the sky. One piece that looks humanoid.
• 1:43:14
  This is no omnipotent, omniscient being.
• 1:43:18
  What you see fall is just a mortal man, a wizard that you
• 1:43:23
  saw the appearance of earlier, a beard crusted with gemstone and
• 1:43:29
  a face rigid with agony and despair.
• 1:43:34
  As he falls, he is not done, but parable.
• 1:43:38
  It's still your turn. I used to attacks and a bonus
• 1:43:41
  action to get to where I am, so I think I'm all set.
• 1:43:44
  OK. But yeah, I do think that
• 1:43:47
  Parable is got tears in his eyes.
• 1:43:49
  He's silvery and full of wind and watching this person fall
• 1:43:53
  from these storms and he looks down and he has a lot of grief
• 1:43:58
  in his heart. As you feel this grief, it
• 1:44:00
  almost foreshadows what you see, which is a mortal man screaming
• 1:44:05
  at the sky, still feeling himself the wrathful God he
• 1:44:09
  knows not that he is just a man falling now, albeit one of noble
• 1:44:15
  gin blood, immortal nonetheless as he screams into the sky.
• 1:44:20
  Fools. My mortal ties are that which
• 1:44:24
  bound me to my weakness. I will not take them back.
• 1:44:27
  I will not tether them to myself.
• 1:44:30
  Soon I shall sever your mortal threats.
• 1:44:33
  I can abide weakness no longer. It sounds like a man screaming
• 1:44:37
  in the wind, no longer God booming across the sky.
• 1:44:41
  But still he wields power that is great within this place, and
• 1:44:45
  it is his turn. Next as crave.
• 1:44:48
  Before you can actually even move a layer action takes place.
• 1:44:51
  And everyone give me a constitution signal through.
• 1:44:56
  If you're close to Parable plus 3, it's a 20 that'll save.
• 1:45:01
  Cassie rolled a 15. A-15 will fail.
• 1:45:04
  Then rolled a a 3 + 3, so 5. Damn. 15 and five will both
• 1:45:09
  fail, so you guys will be taking full damage.
• 1:45:11
  Parable. You'll still take half.
• 1:45:12
  As the plane around you responds, the elements itself
• 1:45:17
  rise up against you, the stone and water and wind around you
• 1:45:20
  coming at you with such force as to cut hard.
• 1:45:23
  And that will be 24 damage to those failing and 12 damage to
• 1:45:26
  parable. What kind of damage?
• 1:45:28
  This is bludgeoning damage OK? I think parable by habit starts
• 1:45:31
  to cover his face like the Murray.
• 1:45:34
  Amazing. You feel the storm starting to
• 1:45:36
  whip up, so you protect yourself from it.
• 1:45:38
  And as you see the man falling and screaming into it that is a
• 1:45:42
  still a Wizard of the highest echelon, he moves to strike.
• 1:45:48
  I'm going to ask everyone to roll lock check here in this
• 1:45:51
  moment. Does advantage apply here for
• 1:45:53
  foresight? No. 11.
• 1:45:58
  Nat Fucking 20. 4. Cassie as Crave now appearing
• 1:46:07
  much more as the wizard he was all through the sky, screaming
• 1:46:13
  into it like a man that can do nothing other than shout against
• 1:46:19
  that which is inevitable. He makes eye contact with you
• 1:46:24
  and sees Soraya, sees someone who is always able to find
• 1:46:29
  equilibrium amongst the chaos of their adventuring.
• 1:46:33
  Someone who was able to find something that he cannot find
• 1:46:37
  now and never could then balance.
• 1:46:41
  And he says, I see it. I see why you 3 don't think
• 1:46:47
  yourselves to be impostors. I'll show you now we all fall
• 1:46:52
  without our center and he will cast power word kit.
• 1:46:58
  Thank you. Cassie, how many hit points do
• 1:47:00
  you have left, 70? Counterspell.
• 1:47:05
  Fuck really? You haven't react?
• 1:47:07
  Do you have a reaction? Let's turn that question.
• 1:47:09
  Mark into an exclamation point, babe.
• 1:47:10
  Powerspell do do. You have a reaction I.
• 1:47:13
  Have a reaction. Oh my godson.
• 1:47:15
  Counterspell. OK fucking friend.
• 1:47:20
  Oh and he is, he is. There's a customer he says.
• 1:47:23
  OK counter. The new counter spell, if you
• 1:47:26
  haven't read 2024 rules, is a constitution save to fail the
• 1:47:30
  spell and crave currently has disadvantage on constitution.
• 1:47:34
  This is going to be another Tower of Dune roll.
• 1:47:38
  Take these out-of-the-box. I'm vibrating.
• 1:47:41
  Oh my God, I didn't even slip her $20.
• 1:47:46
  That is a natural 20 on the first one.
• 1:47:49
  Oh no. Too bad he's got disadvantage.
• 1:47:53
  The seven, yes. That is not enough to beat a con
• 1:47:57
  of 17. Well, what's the modifier?
• 1:48:00
  I think 9. Fucking fuck yes, it's.
• 1:48:03
  A. Mod by 7 Yes, second.
• 1:48:08
  Just rolling a 616. Oh my God.
• 1:48:11
  Oh my God. Counterspell.
• 1:48:13
  Counterspell, counterspell. Counterspell.
• 1:48:15
  The power of friendship. Having having rolled a 7 + 9 on
• 1:48:18
  the modifier result in a 16, you counterspell power word kill.
• 1:48:25
  What is this? Oh my God.
• 1:48:29
  Cassie Crave, now in mortal form, looks at you and says I
• 1:48:34
  wish you dead and you do not die.
• 1:48:38
  Zen, how do you counter this casting?
• 1:48:42
  Zen just seeing the absolute determination in craves wishes
• 1:48:48
  face looking at Cassie she just erupts with no like that's my
• 1:48:55
  friend and like with all the power of the 9 Hells I feel like
• 1:48:59
  she just like we don't like no. The flames leave from you in the
• 1:49:06
  same way that they did on promised day, but this time as
• 1:49:09
  if you see the memory that you could never truly look at
• 1:49:14
  because you were always seeing the destruction.
• 1:49:16
  You never saw the shape the flames took, which was that of
• 1:49:19
  an elegant long neck dragon that stands between Cassie and the
• 1:49:26
  wizard wish in this moment, and you prevent the casting of a
• 1:49:29
  ninth level power word kill. Wow.
• 1:49:32
  Fucking insane I've got holy shit and is that.
• 1:49:35
  What akuma looked like. I I think, I think so very, very
• 1:49:39
  much more the sleek style flyer. I think maybe like Akuma
• 1:49:43
  sacrifices himself for this. He offers most of his essence.
• 1:49:48
  He once more is diminished in form as you still have a
• 1:49:52
  nightmare to ride, but Akuma feels weaker and somehow more
• 1:49:57
  ephemeral beneath you. Wonder if like the chain
• 1:49:59
  attached to her arm goes a little colder.
• 1:50:01
  Yes, if the flames go out and for a moment you don't think
• 1:50:04
  they're going to come back and they flare back up, but just
• 1:50:07
  flickering and flaring. Thank you.
• 1:50:10
  Cassie cannot catch her breath. She'll have comments later, but
• 1:50:15
  she's like choking on her own spit.
• 1:50:17
  What? What is it like as you feel
• 1:50:18
  death upon you and then you feel it taken away?
• 1:50:22
  I think more than pain, it feels like a numbness, which upon
• 1:50:27
  experiencing it, Cassie realizes that even in the depths of her
• 1:50:30
  sadness and isolation, just pale in comparison to being numb and
• 1:50:35
  lost and gone. And then as it returns like
• 1:50:42
  coming home to friendship. Like coming home, for a moment
• 1:50:48
  you feel like what it would be like to lose in in parable.
• 1:50:51
  And no, you will not in this moment.
• 1:50:54
  No, you and your friends, that's all you need.
• 1:50:57
  And Crave is going to have to take a constitution so they can
• 1:51:00
  throw away OK with disadvantage against the poison condition.
• 1:51:05
  These ones can be not box of doom.
• 1:51:07
  If you've ever not been able to help someone nearby, that's
• 1:51:11
  hurting. I imagine Parable without even
• 1:51:13
  having the time to react the way Zen did.
• 1:51:16
  Seeing Cassie's stars start to dim and be like Cassie.
• 1:51:19
  No. And then Zen just exploding.
• 1:51:22
  With a dragon, flaming dragon and.
• 1:51:24
  Parable would just smile at you. My God, amazing.
• 1:51:29
  That is going to be a 24 on the con save.
• 1:51:31
  So we'll save for a second time with disadvantage.
• 1:51:33
  Yes, with disadvantage. That's two saves.
• 1:51:36
  Yes, that is 2 saves and no other.
• 1:51:39
  Actions let her follow that up. No other actions from the wizard
• 1:51:42
  crave that. Is Zen up I?
• 1:51:43
  Dare you? Oh, here comes Zen up with a
• 1:51:46
  fire dragon that just ate us here.
• 1:51:48
  Comes the sun turning down the flame.
• 1:51:52
  So the fire dragon appears in front of cast, negating the
• 1:51:57
  power word kill, and then through the Dragon's chest comes
• 1:52:02
  a fireball. Fuck.
• 1:52:04
  Yes. Yes.
• 1:52:05
  Breathing the fireball I mean part of the same casting really.
• 1:52:10
  Like you are so deep within the magic that runs through your
• 1:52:14
  veins you feel the 9 Hells like burning through you.
• 1:52:18
  And it's not all evil. It's like it's a lot of lists.
• 1:52:24
  There's a lot of admin in hell. Like you're you're feeling the
• 1:52:28
  the just the the pure intensity of the flames and as you act as
• 1:52:33
  an absolute conduit for it, you send a hell storm.
• 1:52:37
  It doesn't even feel conscious. I think it's just part of the
• 1:52:41
  reaction of save my friends. And then just like wow, and this
• 1:52:45
  whole ball comes out, yes. So you'll have to make a deck
• 1:52:49
  save with disadvantage. I'm sure that he's going to do
• 1:52:52
  fine on this. He might, you never know.
• 1:52:54
  How cool to think about a fireball eating a counterspell
• 1:52:57
  in the form of a dragon, then it burstings from the chest and it
• 1:53:00
  continue on its way. Hell has entered the chest.
• 1:53:02
  Very casuals in. Super.
• 1:53:04
  Super. Yeah.
• 1:53:07
  With a + 4. What's our DC here?
• 1:53:09
  17. 17 with a + 4 needs a 13 on the die or higher, 14 on the
• 1:53:17
  first one, a 12 on the second one with these one off, that is
• 1:53:25
  amazing. All right, hit me with that
• 1:53:27
  fireball. Full damage.
• 1:53:29
  OK, so you've gone ahead with 10D6 fire.
• 1:53:34
  Damage. Also don't forget any extra add
• 1:53:36
  on damage. 41 fire damage. Holy.
• 1:53:40
  Shit out of 60. And then you're going to take 4
• 1:53:43
  necrotic. Great stuff.
• 1:53:46
  Yeah, I think that news might be it there.
• 1:53:50
  Amazing stuff Hitting with the strength of the 9 Hells you
• 1:53:55
  bring through the hell down upon the wizard wish.
• 1:53:58
  Is that the end of your turn here?
• 1:54:01
  No SO. That was Kiki.
• 1:54:07
  That was Kiki. Totally witchy Kiki Yas.
• 1:54:12
  So I am going to do a fun little thing thing here.
• 1:54:17
  And if you're not? On the After show, we talked
• 1:54:18
  about Kiki and booba, which is a fun psychology study where
• 1:54:21
  everyone across all cultures agreed that a spiky shape was
• 1:54:23
  Kiki and a blobby shape was booba.
• 1:54:25
  And if you don't agree, you are an alien, you're wrong.
• 1:54:27
  Kiki booba, Now you're cut up. So I'm gonna do Sacred Flame.
• 1:54:33
  Oh yeah, we're gonna stay on theme.
• 1:54:35
  What? What again gives you the bonus
• 1:54:36
  action ability for that? Spill.
• 1:54:38
  Fire. Spark.
• 1:54:39
  So sick. Love that.
• 1:54:40
  Love that new feat. Absolutely hit me with that
• 1:54:42
  Sacred Flame bonus action. Yeah, so the fireball hits and
• 1:54:45
  then just, you know, once more we we're gonna pop, pop.
• 1:54:49
  Combining the Holy light flame with the flame that you've come
• 1:54:52
  to embrace as well. So sick with disadvantage.
• 1:54:56
  That is going to be a 14. To save, Yeah.
• 1:55:04
  She's just going to channel her like time energy of like he, you
• 1:55:08
  know, knobby ass knee man. He deserves to be here too.
• 1:55:12
  And so she's going to send nine radiant damage.
• 1:55:15
  I cannot fucking believe that radiant damage didn't come up at
• 1:55:18
  all while he was in divine form and had resistance.
• 1:55:23
  Wow. But instead we'll take just the
• 1:55:25
  full 9 damage as you have brought him down to mortal form.
• 1:55:29
  Awesome, now that that's done, Akuma is going.
• 1:55:34
  To is he? He's on the ground now.
• 1:55:36
  He will be. He's on the way down.
• 1:55:37
  Oh yes, and Akuma's got another breath weapon.
• 1:55:40
  Or are you hit him with the hooves this time?
• 1:55:41
  Because I think your breath weapon might be out.
• 1:55:43
  Yes, Awesome. You still have hoof attacks with
• 1:55:45
  him which hit hard. 2 So he's going to hit twice with his hoof
• 1:55:51
  attacks. Let's see those attack rolls.
• 1:55:53
  Oh, plus six. Nice.
• 1:55:57
  All right, so he's going for two attacks here, so 22. 22 just
• 1:56:02
  hits, is it? Huge.
• 1:56:05
  And another 22. And fucking tastic Puma bringing
• 1:56:09
  hooves down. Just getting an up close and
• 1:56:11
  personal. It's been working. 16 fire
• 1:56:17
  damage. Nice fucking stuff chipping
• 1:56:20
  away. Every little fucking point
• 1:56:21
  matters, guys. Amazing stuff.
• 1:56:23
  Pause plus bludgeoning damage. Hold on, got to get the eights
• 1:56:29
  out. 24 bludgeoning. Wow 16 and 20?
• 1:56:36
  Holy shit. 40 damage all fucking told.
• 1:56:40
  Amazing turns. Zin and Akuma.
• 1:56:42
  I assume you are done. Yes, now I am done.
• 1:56:46
  Wipes the like soot from the fire off her clothing.
• 1:56:50
  Flames everywhere. That is going to be a legendary
• 1:56:54
  action. Up next, being struck from all
• 1:56:57
  sides. He once more looks to Cassie and
• 1:57:00
  says no you were dead, die. And as he says die you once more
• 1:57:07
  are hit from within with this like wish flare energy.
• 1:57:10
  But you have been working hard to find balance with it and it
• 1:57:14
  will still be some damage here. I think Cassie is mentally
• 1:57:18
  prepared enough for attack like this, but you will still take.
• 1:57:20
  No saving throw or anything. No saving throw or anything. 12
• 1:57:23
  damage OK in that specific ability where it's no saving
• 1:57:26
  throw, no attack, takes 2 legendary action, so it's a
• 1:57:28
  little extra costly. Good.
• 1:57:31
  And that is your turn up next. Good, I'm going to start my turn
• 1:57:35
  with a bonus action Healing Word.
• 1:57:38
  Fantastic myself. Going to be two D 4 + 512 total.
• 1:57:45
  Cool, that just negated that, which is nice.
• 1:57:47
  Fantastic healing yourself for the damage done, you get
• 1:57:51
  yourself back on your feet. Shake it off, girl.
• 1:57:53
  Shake it off. Cast.
• 1:57:54
  He's gonna cast lightning. Bolt.
• 1:57:56
  Hell yeah you are. Oh my gosh, this is another deck
• 1:57:59
  save. It sure is.
• 1:58:00
  God damn it. Wow, Fireball.
• 1:58:01
  And lightning bolts. And I actually I'm gonna use my
• 1:58:04
  cosmic element of woe to detract AD 6.
• 1:58:07
  Amazing. He'll subtract A2 from his
• 1:58:10
  saving throw, but he'll also roll with disadvantage.
• 1:58:13
  And having rolled A2, he rolls a 0.
• 1:58:17
  Yeah. Wow, amazing.
• 1:58:18
  It's about 15 short, so a stroke of lightning forming a 100 foot
• 1:58:22
  long and five foot wide line blasts out from me.
• 1:58:26
  Toward him. Amazing.
• 1:58:28
  Cassie, he's going to take. 8D6 lightning damage.
• 1:58:31
  Yeah, he is. Hit me with it.
• 1:58:34
  Going to be 29 damage. Fan fucking tastic.
• 1:58:37
  Every blast matters. You guys are hitting this guy on
• 1:58:42
  all sides. You're closing in.
• 1:58:44
  Amazing. That's my turn.
• 1:58:47
  She's can still be shaking off some of the feeling of narrowly
• 1:58:50
  having escaped and avoided death.
• 1:58:53
  Having taken on the attention of this terribly powerful
• 1:58:56
  individual. Good stuff, Cassie.
• 1:58:58
  That is going to be a legendary action coming at Cassie once
• 1:59:02
  more. He's just refusing to believe
• 1:59:04
  that you can stand, and he tries to make you drop by throwing
• 1:59:09
  those chains at you. Give me a strength saving throw
• 1:59:11
  here. Natural 20.
• 1:59:15
  Yes. What does it look like as these
• 1:59:17
  chains are not able to find purchase fund?
• 1:59:20
  It's that moment of realizing that I've narrowly avoided death
• 1:59:24
  because there are people here willing to fight for me, willing
• 1:59:27
  to risk themselves for me and for each other.
• 1:59:30
  And that just makes you feel like a fucking badass sometimes,
• 1:59:33
  to feel like someone's on your team.
• 1:59:35
  And Cassie has a team. Having the people behind you
• 1:59:38
  that you do, you know that now is no time to stop and you do
• 1:59:42
  not. You do not drop your guard.
• 1:59:44
  You do not for a moment let these chains find purchase upon
• 1:59:47
  you and they shatter parable that is Next up going to be you.
• 1:59:52
  Wow. Back at the top of the order.
• 1:59:54
  Parable is just going to look at his friends doing so much damage
• 1:59:58
  and he's going to fly straight towards him and he's going to
• 2:00:02
  summon his blade of the last. Breath.
• 2:00:04
  As you fly towards him, you see him gathering up the energy of a
• 2:00:08
  blade of disaster to cast next. So this is 2 Gin swordsmen
• 2:00:13
  flying at each other from across a barren wasteland with cosmic
• 2:00:18
  sky and crashing stone around you all.
• 2:00:21
  OK, I am going to use my last luck point for advantage on this
• 2:00:26
  roll. Let's see if you can do it.
• 2:00:32
  First one is A23A. 23 will hit. Should I just roll a second
• 2:00:37
  attack? Let's see the second one.
• 2:00:40
  F links don't roll that once that fucking 20.
• 2:00:45
  I fucking knew it. I closed my eyes.
• 2:00:47
  I felt it and I knew it. Oh my God, holy shit I can't
• 2:00:54
  believe. That just happened.
• 2:00:55
  I'm going to use my hit dice on that second attack.
• 2:00:59
  OK, OK, you're invoking your blade of the last breath.
• 2:01:02
  Yeah, so I'm invoking my Blade of the Last Breath, which means
• 2:01:06
  I can spend and roll any number of my unspent hit dice as the
• 2:01:09
  total roll to the weapon damage. Can I do that on the crit?
• 2:01:13
  Yes, you, absolutely. I will say I would ask you to
• 2:01:15
  continue reading that because that does have some guardrails
• 2:01:17
  about how many you choose to use.
• 2:01:18
  Yeah. For every additional hit dice
• 2:01:20
  used in this way, you gain a level of exhaustion.
• 2:01:23
  Yes, once your breath has been invoked, it can't be invoked
• 2:01:25
  again until next dawn. So I can spend 2, but if I spend
• 2:01:28
  any more than that I will be getting exhaustion points.
• 2:01:32
  But I'm also going to use a feet here as an additional 1D8
• 2:01:36
  radiant strike, and I'm going to smite as well.
• 2:01:39
  Stack stack stack. Stack amazing.
• 2:01:41
  I'm going to spend an additional two hit dice right away.
• 2:01:44
  So that's a total of four hit dice that I'm going to take on 2
• 2:01:47
  levels of exhaustion for six hit dice total.
• 2:01:50
  OK. And then this might do I double
• 2:01:53
  that damage as well? Yes, you'll double all dice.
• 2:01:56
  OK, so you won't double the damage total, but you'll double
• 2:01:59
  any amount of dice that you're rolling.
• 2:02:00
  You will double those dice. OK, I'm going to roll the
• 2:02:03
  regular hit damage first, the 14 damage with the first strike,
• 2:02:10
  that's 16 damage and then an additional 12.
• 2:02:15
  I'm the rolling 12 hit die then. 12 D 10.
• 2:02:19
  That feels really good. Oh.
• 2:02:20
  Yeah. A lot of tents. 64 damage 64
• 2:02:28
  Damage 60. Four more damage, fuck yeah, and
• 2:02:32
  I get through all 2-DA for the radiant damage.
• 2:02:34
  Oh my God, he just. Said coming.
• 2:02:37
  That's an additional 10 damage, so.
• 2:02:39
  Between everything parable, how much damage did you bring at the
• 2:02:42
  wizard? Wish you in this moment.
• 2:02:43
  All said and told, with the crit I, he's hit for 139 force
• 2:02:48
  damage. Holy.
• 2:02:51
  Fucking shit with 139 damage. I will be honest, it is not
• 2:02:55
  enough to end him, but it puts him within mortal, fucking
• 2:02:59
  realistic numbers. You bring him to a point where
• 2:03:01
  he feels fear, he feels that he is not divine, he feels his
• 2:03:08
  mortal essence, and he can no longer deny that he made a
• 2:03:12
  mistake. Though in the moment he just
• 2:03:15
  panics as parable. I assume that is everything here
• 2:03:19
  from you. That's everything.
• 2:03:21
  Yeah. I I see him drawing a sword.
• 2:03:23
  And I said, if that's how you want to play it, I turn it into
• 2:03:26
  the wind. I swipe him with my my blade of
• 2:03:29
  my last breath. And then I kind of hover above
• 2:03:32
  him and I just like kind of gravity take me, but as if I'm
• 2:03:36
  falling at full speed suddenly and I go right down through a
• 2:03:39
  minute and a trail of light follows with the divine smite
• 2:03:42
  when I'm landed in front of him on one knee kind of in butt
• 2:03:46
  scoop position, kind of squatting.
• 2:03:47
  And I'm just breathing heavily, not even looking.
• 2:03:49
  And I'm looking down at my blade as I feel a part of my life
• 2:03:52
  force used for this action. Absolutely and in that moment of
• 2:03:57
  rest after a truly awesome strike in the most true
• 2:04:02
  definition of awe as you bring a blade of pure brilliant white
• 2:04:06
  air. Your breath itself down upon
• 2:04:09
  crave the wizard wish returned of mortal form.
• 2:04:12
  He wields a blade of disaster and cut him down.
• 2:04:16
  But still he looks to you and he says I am Jin and I bear the
• 2:04:24
  weight I bear the burden and you shall know my blade and he
• 2:04:32
  brings a blade of disaster upon you parable.
• 2:04:35
  Oh no. The Blade of Disaster is a three
• 2:04:39
  foot long blade shaped planar rift.
• 2:04:43
  The blade appears as he casts it with bonus action and moves to
• 2:04:47
  hit you. He has disadvantage on attack
• 2:04:50
  rolls because of you. So that is a good note.
• 2:04:54
  He does get 2 attacks here. The first one is not the natural
• 2:04:58
  20 that he rolls, but instead a 22.
• 2:05:02
  That does hit. The next one is 28 that.
• 2:05:07
  Hits his pulse. Parable that is going to be 20D6
• 2:05:12
  force damage to you. Oh.
• 2:05:14
  No. 20D sixes, does that sound? This isn't a counterspell
• 2:05:24
  situation, Is it because they're attacks?
• 2:05:26
  You absolutely could counter plate of disaster.
• 2:05:29
  I'm going to counterspell I. Only fucking this.
• 2:05:32
  Is going to counterspell again. That's it.
• 2:05:34
  Don't. Stop fucking with their.
• 2:05:36
  Friends man, in counter spelling that will be another Tower of
• 2:05:40
  Doom Constitution rule made with disadvantage you fucking maniac.
• 2:05:44
  1000 then what's your DC-17 with a 17 to meet and a + 9 for a
• 2:05:50
  modifier? Needs an 8 on the die or higher.
• 2:05:54
  I'm going to use my cosmic omen of woe.
• 2:05:56
  OK, let's roll that first. He's going to subtract 1.
• 2:06:00
  OK, needs a nine on the die or higher.
• 2:06:06
  First one's a 15 and the second one's a three.
• 2:06:10
  And with God on their side. Oh my God.
• 2:06:16
  And with that, we'll fail. Wow, Zen, what do you what do
• 2:06:20
  you do? You call that a sword?
• 2:06:24
  I think I just roast it. As you she's got confidence now.
• 2:06:29
  Maybe she's cooking, I imagine. You like catching it with your
• 2:06:31
  scimitar? Doing the dragon thing again?
• 2:06:33
  No, you just roast him. Look.
• 2:06:35
  At that cutie little stick. You can you catch the word that
• 2:06:38
  he uses to conjure it, which is sword.
• 2:06:42
  That's the best you've got, OK. What are you talking?
• 2:06:46
  Are you laughing at me? Yeah, yeah, I am.
• 2:06:48
  I am laughing at you and you're trying to attack my friend.
• 2:06:51
  So please. Stop.
• 2:06:52
  And he is he is distracted by this.
• 2:06:54
  You're just stepping in like in a way for a friend.
• 2:06:57
  He's he was just so locked into the genie on genie thing.
• 2:07:00
  And he he's he's so utterly thrown off as his spell, his
• 2:07:05
  spell completely unravels and he looks shocked at these three
• 2:07:10
  people. He says they're not impostors.
• 2:07:16
  No, no. And he shakes himself out of it
• 2:07:19
  and looks once more furious as remember this is not the mortal
• 2:07:23
  self, he is still the evil incarnation of which that he is.
• 2:07:27
  He will try to finish this fight but can't with the blade of
• 2:07:31
  disaster that he tried to strike down with.
• 2:07:32
  So that was fucking amazing. Fuck, what will he do?
• 2:07:36
  Not much. Wow, guys.
• 2:07:39
  Wow. He's got to be feeling really,
• 2:07:42
  really stupid. You choosing Khan?
• 2:07:45
  Say it's Dana. Girl, yeah.
• 2:07:47
  It truly feels like we came in as Dominari and like proved to
• 2:07:50
  this elder that they're wrong. Yeah, this.
• 2:07:53
  Is how you like? Hey, sometimes it's about the
• 2:07:55
  little people. Yeah, they.
• 2:07:57
  Don't got to be up there. Every big moment feels like it's
• 2:07:59
  been out of like protection or like getting in front of our
• 2:08:03
  friends. It's been.
• 2:08:04
  Amazing. Or instinct, like a primal
• 2:08:07
  desire to survive and do right. Crave says as he shakes himself
• 2:08:14
  out of that moment of confusion and back into his moments of
• 2:08:19
  rage. No, if it's all falling apart
• 2:08:23
  I'll be the one to break it. Everyone give me a constitution
• 2:08:26
  saving throw as this is no longer his turn but rather the
• 2:08:29
  layer action +3. +3 Can I use a local point?
• 2:08:36
  Yes. 14 for Cassie. 15 for parable. 8 for Zen.
• 2:08:43
  I don't think any of us saved. None of that.
• 2:08:46
  None of. Those will save so annoyed.
• 2:08:49
  Put those down. Knock at all.
• 2:08:52
  Watch, that'll be 26 damage to everyone and you are all not
• 2:08:58
  prone. This is blood journey damage as
• 2:09:02
  the plane itself starts to quake and shudder and shake.
• 2:09:05
  And that is Zin up next, as you have a mortal wish in front of
• 2:09:10
  you, one that is becoming more unhinged by the moment.
• 2:09:14
  He looks towards you with hatred in his eyes.
• 2:09:19
  Yeah, I've gotten a lot of that lately.
• 2:09:21
  So Zenda's going to cast a Circle of Death.
• 2:09:24
  OK. Please, she's had enough of this
• 2:09:30
  for so negative energy ripples out in a 60 foot radius sphere
• 2:09:35
  from a point I choose within range.
• 2:09:36
  So wish each creature in the area makes a constitution saving
• 2:09:41
  throw with disadvantage and we'll take 8D8 necrotic damage
• 2:09:45
  or half on a fail. Fucking.
• 2:09:47
  Incredible guys. Boom.
• 2:09:50
  Can you angle it so it doesn't hit parable?
• 2:09:52
  Oh yeah. Don't worry.
• 2:09:53
  Thanks. Thanks I.
• 2:09:54
  Think she'll shrink it? Just her.
• 2:09:55
  Just wish. Another needs an 8 on the die.
• 2:09:59
  Boom, it's Constitution safe. Do it.
• 2:10:02
  It's an 8 on the die on the first one and an 8 on the die on
• 2:10:07
  the second one, and we'll just barely save there.
• 2:10:12
  Cosmic I'm going to blow -4. Wow, I.
• 2:10:16
  Will not say they're hit me with that circle of death friends.
• 2:10:21
  OK circle of death, here it comes.
• 2:10:23
  You're going to take 37 necrotic damage plus A1D6 hex, 3 more
• 2:10:30
  necrotic damage, and with my bonus action I'll be wrathful
• 2:10:34
  smiting so that will be another one D6.
• 2:10:36
  But you have to make a wisdom safe.
• 2:10:39
  I won't in this case as I hold up how many hit points he had.
• 2:10:42
  What? Which was 19 with the sort.
• 2:10:46
  Of the. 1001 hit points he has had this entire time we.
• 2:10:51
  Could have guessed that. You have destroyed every single
• 2:10:54
  one of them, Zen. But I would ask all three of
• 2:10:57
  you, how do you finish the wizard wish no longer truly a
• 2:11:03
  mad God for you. Give him a little bit of peace
• 2:11:06
  knowing that he was wrong at the end of his time.
• 2:11:10
  I think before the necrotic damage fully takes over, I think
• 2:11:15
  it kind of instead of like a sphere of you know, it like it
• 2:11:18
  comes up from like smoke tendrils and wraps around each
• 2:11:22
  of his limbs. So he's kind of kneeling, I
• 2:11:24
  imagine on the ground, completely grappled to it and
• 2:11:28
  it's giving us just a moment before the necrotic damage takes
• 2:11:33
  hold, I imagine to, you know, any one liners.
• 2:11:38
  We want to shoot his way, literally tell him how we feel.
• 2:11:42
  He shoots several towards you as he speaks of fate and how it
• 2:11:46
  gave him such a burden that he was forced to kill it, that he
• 2:11:51
  was forced to destroy fate for he did not like the one that it
• 2:11:55
  gave him, and still he found himself upon that path.
• 2:12:01
  Ever since ascending, he has expected to be proven right, and
• 2:12:06
  at no point has he. And he speaks of fate and all
• 2:12:09
  the things that drove him here and all the things that forced
• 2:12:13
  him to do these things. But never does he speak of the
• 2:12:15
  choice that he made and the regret that he holds very
• 2:12:18
  strongly behind every word. But at no point does he admit
• 2:12:22
  that he was wrong to do what he did.
• 2:12:25
  I think Zen would say as she's twisting him up in shadows.
• 2:12:31
  You were given 1001 chances to use the power you stole from the
• 2:12:36
  people for good and you failed at every turn.
• 2:12:41
  Your chances have run out. His eyes see past you, but you
• 2:12:47
  know he hears your words. Cassie says let this be a lesson
• 2:12:54
  that wishes spent on others are wishes well spent.
• 2:12:59
  But the favor I gave? For you.
• 2:13:04
  And he smiles and he says, I guess it was already fading and
• 2:13:09
  tearing into essence. You give him one last lesson.
• 2:13:12
  And I think Parable walks up around the circle that you've
• 2:13:16
  created, and he casts in the same circle zone of truth.
• 2:13:20
  A circle of death and a zone of truth.
• 2:13:22
  At once you grant us kind of passing that I think anyone
• 2:13:26
  would be thankful for. And I hold up the lamp in front
• 2:13:30
  of him, and I say, I know you did your best, but for you,
• 2:13:41
  could you say you could have done it differently?
• 2:13:46
  You find a dented brass lamp at his feet.
• 2:13:52
  Picking it up, he looks at you, looks into his reflection on the
• 2:13:58
  lamp surface. No, I made my choices.
• 2:14:05
  I cannot have regrets. Then leave with a calm heart.
• 2:14:10
  And the shadows just tighten and just dissipate him.
• 2:14:15
  You see stubbornness to the end and a mortal man refusing to
• 2:14:19
  accept mercy given mercy offered.
• 2:14:22
  Instead, he stays to a path that he knows that he was damned to
• 2:14:27
  walk long ago. One into the darkness and as
• 2:14:32
  craves last scream unravels into the silence, it is one that
• 2:14:38
  comes with it. A moment of peace and calm.
• 2:14:43
  And then the Demi plane of odd shutters.
• 2:14:48
  Color bleeds, the sky and stone crack open.
• 2:14:51
  Gravity forgets itself all around you, the dying gods
• 2:14:54
  tortured dream collapses inward, praying, fading, but you stand
• 2:15:00
  at the center of the storm. The greater domain weights
• 2:15:05
  around you. You can feel it raw, trembling,
• 2:15:07
  wild with possibility. This power is not a throne to
• 2:15:11
  take, It is not a weapon to use. It is a choice to make, one that
• 2:15:17
  wish never could. As the Demi plane of Odd
• 2:15:21
  collapses towards you, you all feel not only this small Demi
• 2:15:25
  plane, but the jumbled pieces of everything blends apart, touches
• 2:15:30
  resting within your hands. These fragments yearn to be
• 2:15:34
  forged anew. What is your choice?
• 2:15:39
  Will you forge a world within the under Astral once more,
• 2:15:43
  prolonging this broken cycle? Or will you attempt to bear
• 2:15:47
  these lands apart through the route into true existence?
• 2:15:54
  The world is falling apart around you and you have a
• 2:15:56
  decision to make quickly. I look to both of you and I open
• 2:16:04
  the top of the lamp with the primordial waters in it and.
• 2:16:09
  I. I think before we make any
• 2:16:12
  choice to make it easier, I start pouring water over the
• 2:16:15
  circle that you made, trying to put something bright and new and
• 2:16:20
  of growth in the center of something that left just to kind
• 2:16:26
  of set us up with a window of where to go.
• 2:16:29
  Knowing that you don't have much time to find space or shelter,
• 2:16:32
  you bring shelter to you by pouring primordial essence upon
• 2:16:36
  this ground within the circle that is touched by both your and
• 2:16:40
  Zen's magics. I think you anoint this place to
• 2:16:44
  be sacred for what is about to come.
• 2:16:48
  And as you all prepare to do something, Soraya runs out to
• 2:16:53
  where you all are saying Cassie, Cassie, I, I, I can't see.
• 2:17:00
  I mean, I can see I, I can't. It's like I can't smell the
• 2:17:05
  future anymore. I can't.
• 2:17:06
  I don't know what's coming. And she smiles so big I don't
• 2:17:12
  know what's ahead. She's got time along her arm,
• 2:17:17
  helping him along as best she can, and Sage Sagacious on the
• 2:17:20
  other one, just kind of looking around.
• 2:17:22
  How does it feel? I feel so grateful.
• 2:17:25
  I mean, I always, I've always felt grateful, but I'll be
• 2:17:28
  honest, it was a little forced. There's a, there's.
• 2:17:32
  Does it feel like potential? It feels like potential.
• 2:17:35
  You know, I was going to say ignorance is bliss, but it is.
• 2:17:38
  It is much more so potential you always have had.
• 2:17:43
  AI can't that she's like giddy as she is.
• 2:17:47
  She reminds you of Raya in this moment as she's got a little bit
• 2:17:49
  of new life about her, excited for whatever may come as the
• 2:17:53
  world is like collapsing around you and you feel like power
• 2:17:57
  untold, gathering within your very being.
• 2:17:59
  I am grateful and I am also scared that whatever happens
• 2:18:03
  next won't allow her to come with.
• 2:18:08
  I don't know what these next moments look like, and I don't
• 2:18:11
  know if given her in nature, she'll be able to.
• 2:18:16
  She senses your hesitance I think here and looks at you and
• 2:18:20
  says whatever happens next, you 3 will be the ones deciding it.
• 2:18:27
  Whatever you decide, I know it will be right and I will see you
• 2:18:31
  there. And you know in your heart that
• 2:18:33
  if you want her to be there, she will be there.
• 2:18:35
  You guys have the power of the collective energy of the lands
• 2:18:39
  apart, everything that the Lands of Fortune has gathered,
• 2:18:41
  everything that the lands of Favor has gathered, everything.
• 2:18:45
  Cass is, I mean Soraya, do you have brick?
• 2:18:48
  Yes, dear, he's right here. He was very worried about you.
• 2:18:51
  I summon Brick and I say hey buddy one more time and I do my
• 2:18:57
  puzzle. I open them up and actually pull
• 2:19:03
  out the world seed. Cassings And you find in front
• 2:19:08
  of you Parable holding a power that feels akin to the third.
• 2:19:12
  Well, it holds so much power that it is equivalent to any
• 2:19:18
  amount of power that you've come across so far.
• 2:19:20
  I'm going to cast druid craft and use bloom.
• 2:19:23
  Amazing. I would love to go up the pools
• 2:19:27
  that we the pool of water that we made and as if we were all
• 2:19:31
  standing around a wishing well with bloom casted on the seed,
• 2:19:34
  I'd like to drop it into the pool.
• 2:19:37
  I look at you guys and say I think this is what it all was
• 2:19:41
  for. I think we should.
• 2:19:43
  We have to do it different, we have to try something else, and
• 2:19:48
  everyone here and down in the Lands Apart deserve a chance at
• 2:19:53
  a real, real life. I wish for something new.
• 2:20:02
  I wish for something new. I wish for something new.
• 2:20:08
  As you 3 say these words parable, do you toss the seed
• 2:20:11
  into the pool? I don't know man.
• 2:20:15
  I think Zen would come up to Parable and put her hand under
• 2:20:19
  his hand. Cassie 2.
• 2:20:23
  We're in this together, 1223. And you all drop the seed in
• 2:20:30
  together and suddenly. You find yourself upon the
• 2:20:39
  crossroads of a dirt path. Where the width of the path
• 2:20:44
  ends, only the velvety black of the cosmos meets it.
• 2:20:50
  At the center of this crossroads stands a simple stonework.
• 2:20:55
  Well, the only other thing in the sky is a great massive tree
• 2:21:03
  above you, the roots of it extending outward along Milky
• 2:21:11
  Way distances, the distance of a universe above you.
• 2:21:18
  And as you find yourself upon this crossroads, you hear a
• 2:21:22
  voice. Welcome, welcome 33 newcomers if
• 2:21:32
  I am to be correct. Parable wipes tears from his
• 2:21:35
  eyes. Where are we?
• 2:21:36
  You see a small crow, no, a Raven hopping towards you.
• 2:21:43
  It says hello. You may call me Spekku.
• 2:21:48
  I am one of the many servants that serves the World Tree, the
• 2:21:53
  Tree of Worlds. Well, do.
• 2:21:56
  You know, do you know Scotty? Oh no.
• 2:22:03
  You bitch. You bitch.
• 2:22:07
  Oh, is is he a friend of yours? He was someone special that
• 2:22:10
  looked like you, yeah. I don't keep.
• 2:22:12
  Tabs on the going ONS down here. If you look too long it gives
• 2:22:15
  one a headache and you can feel worlds exploding and dying and
• 2:22:20
  being destroyed by demons down beneath.
• 2:22:22
  You can say that again. Are are we at the root?
• 2:22:26
  Oh, just on the checkpoint. And you could say it's something
• 2:22:31
  of a stopping point, something of, well, it is something to
• 2:22:35
  see. Would you like to see?
• 2:22:39
  Yes. Yes.
• 2:22:40
  He kind of lifts a a a bird wing up and gestures to the sky and
• 2:22:46
  it within the constellations you see 2 great wells drawn out as
• 2:22:53
  they become more and more real and existing above you and just
• 2:22:56
  beneath the root. He says.
• 2:22:59
  You find yourself at something crossroads.
• 2:23:06
  The decisions you make going forward will be not just for
• 2:23:09
  you, but for a universe of your own creation.
• 2:23:17
  Where you have come from. I know not.
• 2:23:22
  I only know where you head, which is a place of worlds
• 2:23:27
  beyond number and stories untold.
• 2:23:32
  Will you be the ones to tell them?
• 2:23:36
  Yes. I can carry prayer and favor and
• 2:23:44
  maybe even a little bit of something of myself.
• 2:23:49
  Just a good story. We will be the.
• 2:23:53
  Voice of others, I promise to always keep the story back.
• 2:24:02
  Those words make sense to me. I don't think any of you will
• 2:24:06
  have a problem. Seems like you're already blind
• 2:24:10
  with color and behind you you see like spiraling ribbons of
• 2:24:15
  1001 colors that you can't name, can't place because there are
• 2:24:19
  too many to count. The colors that would that would
• 2:24:22
  be needed to create all of creation that rides with you.
• 2:24:25
  The lands apart, comes with you as you rise.
• 2:24:29
  And as this primordial world rises, carried by your will
• 2:24:33
  through the root and into the real, you know only this.
• 2:24:38
  That this fledgling universe, born from the crossroads of
• 2:24:41
  prayer, promise and potential will carry with it one thing
• 2:24:48
  most hope. And that is the end of Wish
• 2:24:56
  Hunter Book 1. Thank you for joining us.

  The stars above tell us a story of old The heavens beat, and
• 2:26:12
  below the fires below the seven completed.
• 2:26:20
  The 8th. Turned to unfold as I remember
• 2:26:28
  that's how the story goes. They told me of riches and dead
• 2:26:36
  men in ditches beyond the rising Rd.
• 2:26:42
  It might be. The trick is we ran from those
• 2:26:45
  witches before they took all our souls.
• 2:26:51
  We only knew the lucky few that made it till the end.
• 2:26:59
  You might hear a story of bloodshed and glory and a wish
• 2:27:05
  from the dead. We wandered the lands with Fade
• 2:27:12
  in our hands, where Wizards told us to roam.
• 2:27:18
  Echoes of treasure or soul, It would measure of any who dare.
• 2:27:23
  Behold, we found what we'd find. Running from time our hope held
• 2:27:33
  till stars awoke. They never didn't say what we
• 2:27:38
  lose on the way. A cruel and fateful joke.
• 2:27:45
  We only knew the lucky few then made it till the end.
• 2:27:54
  You might hear a story of blood without glory and a wish for a
• 2:28:00
  friend. We only knew the lucky few that
• 2:28:08
  fell along the bend. They might just miss that long
• 2:28:15
  dead wish they saved for the end.
• 2:28:27
