[00:01:30] Speaker B: Hello everybody. Welcome back to Goblins and Gays. I'm Aubrey, your gm. Also my players introduce themselves, who they are, they're playing and we'll get rolling into things.
[00:01:39] Speaker C: Hi, I'm Aki and I play the vigilante Grave Wing, who is a Nagaji self monk and kineticist. We both use she her pronouns.
[00:01:51] Speaker A: Hello, I am Faris she her and I play Alouette Valer. Also she her a bardic thaumaturge beast kin doing her best while juggling a family curse, falling in love and of course, the end of the world.
[00:02:05] Speaker D: Hello, I'm Dusty. I use they he pronouns. Name playing Eurodo, formerly Moran, still a problem, just angrier now. They are blood hunter Nephilim problem.
Just.
Just trying to fix things, even though it's all bad. They also use they he pronouns.
[00:02:30] Speaker E: Hello, I'm Sparlock and I play Alistair Whiskerfield, the great rat detective, arcane archer and wizard extraordinaire, the revolutionary firebrand, sworn enemy to the Scriabins and scourge of the bourgeoisie and master of Nicodemus Tower. We both use he him pronouns.
[00:02:52] Speaker F: Hi, I'm Tick. I use he, she, they pronouns. And today I'll be playing Niall, who uses he they pronouns. He cooks, he cleans, he eats people and has an alien parasite living in his spine, slowly consuming him. What more could you ask for?
[00:03:06] Speaker G: Hi, I'm Alyssa. My pronouns are they, them and I play Laith Idrisi, the fourth Dampier, dandy, rogue, failed matricide with a negative one constitution modifier. Leith uses she any pronouns.
[00:03:19] Speaker B: Does someone want to tell me how we ended things last season?
[00:03:22] Speaker F: Oh boy. Yes, I can.
So. Oh my God, I love balls.
Aubrey kidnapped Yuri, as in someone kidnapped Yuri, as also Yellowjacket. There was a lot of kidnappings and basically this ball was kind of a large elaborate trap hostage situation for everyone to go in and save. The two guys, gays, you know, friends, quiet guy versus ADHD yapper. Basically the same energy as these two trapped in jail. And we kind of made our plan, poison the guards with diarrhea and an ethical amount of diarrhea. And we went in to the bowl, we investigated, we determined the best route and we promised whiskey some fun little spicy secrets in exc Exchange for his help, he decided to just epically stand on the stage right as Yuri and Yellowjack about to be executed. I know there's other stuff. There's a lot of homoerotic content, but I'm leaving the homoerotic content out because it's Pride month and people have to watch the whole episode. But Whiskey Jack was enlisted. We figured out where the central room was and kind of busted in to the central room with very minimal busting. We didn't bust too much up, but we busted enough. We busted an average amount that someone does. Yeah, we busted down. I saw you, Aki. We busted down. Yeah.
[00:04:34] Speaker C: Gonna get busted because Phineas and Ferb's getting a renewal.
[00:04:38] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:04:39] Speaker F: Okay. Phineas and Ferb aside, though, I love Phineas and Ferb. Dm me about Phoenix and Ferb. But the gays snuck in.
The other gays got almost executed. And as lathe and graveling kind of descended from the heavens themselves, doing the gayest sailor moon pose together as possible. Whiskey Jack also descended from the other direction as skeleton started raising from the floor as he revealed he was a God.
Kind of a power entity, you know, like some dude. Some dude, but really cool.
This. He was like, haha, I don't have skin. I'm Papyrus from Undertale. Except on fire. That is not. There is a Ghost Rider. Ghost Rider?
[00:05:16] Speaker A: Yeah, that's the guy.
[00:05:19] Speaker F: Basically, the masquerade ball to save Yuri. With a success on our end and a failed assassination attempt of many nobles on the parts of the people who own the place. As we tried to escape, though, mothers from the past continue to assault us. First, Leith's mom, and then second, the raven mother grabbed Faris and took her into a hole. Or grabbed Lou, technically, and took her into a hole.
Because we are just staring at a hole with no ideas of what we're doing.
[00:05:47] Speaker B: Well, it's very late in the night and you do need to actually sleep.
You all head back to probably the Wollstonecraft manor and try and get some sleep.
And as you sleep, you find yourself in a familiar throne room again with a familiar figure on the throne.
The tyrant leans down and looks at all of you and says, why do you fight?
I could give you anything you wanted.
[00:06:27] Speaker D: Your wildest dreams and desires, if you only give in.
[00:06:37] Speaker B: And I need everyone to make a will save.
[00:06:40] Speaker F: Oh no.
[00:06:42] Speaker A: Am I dreaming? Do I need to do it?
[00:06:44] Speaker B: You are also dreaming.
[00:06:45] Speaker A: You're going to have to tell me what my will save is.
[00:06:50] Speaker B: Your will save is a 15.
[00:06:54] Speaker F: Why is my will save so low? Hold on. I don't like this.
Well, it's just some guy you're not very will save me.
[00:07:05] Speaker A: 34.
[00:07:09] Speaker F: That's a 16 for me. Everypony, bro, same.
[00:07:13] Speaker G: And I don't know if I want to reroll it.
[00:07:15] Speaker F: I'm not going to because I'm just kind of related to all this. I think it's funny to have like a mental breakdown.
[00:07:22] Speaker D: I got an at 20.
Me flipping off the camera wasn't apparent. Sorry, Aubrey. That was a moment of elation.
[00:07:31] Speaker A: Cousins high fiving.
[00:07:33] Speaker E: I rolled an 8, so that's what, a 40% chance of rolling lower.
So I'll.
I'll stick with the 20.
[00:07:45] Speaker G: I.
I rerolled and got a 31, thankfully.
[00:07:50] Speaker C: 26.
[00:07:50] Speaker G: You sure you don't wanna.
[00:07:54] Speaker F: Aubrey, I have a question for you. As a respectful person. Do you think it'll be interesting if I fail this role?
[00:08:01] Speaker B: I think it'll always be interesting.
[00:08:03] Speaker G: I can't.
[00:08:04] Speaker A: Don't listen to her. With love. Don't listen to her. Fine.
[00:08:08] Speaker F: Yeah, I'll use a hero point. Let's see if I roll lower than a five, which I probably will. Let's go.
Every.
[00:08:15] Speaker C: Every fucking day, I tell this bitch to just lie. Nobody's gonna care if you of all people lie.
[00:08:21] Speaker F: I'm using the dice bot. My dice are on like another counter. I don't want to get up. But that is a 21. Now it went up.
[00:08:28] Speaker C: I'm gonna be so real. You can use the. The dice spot that everybody can see and then just be like, oh yeah, that's a 30. And I don't think anybody's gonna say shit.
[00:08:38] Speaker F: No, I'm just. I.
I can only lie when no one can see it. It's Schrodinger's lie. Also, I don't like lying anyways.
[00:08:46] Speaker B: That is unfortunately still a failure.
[00:08:49] Speaker A: Yay.
[00:08:49] Speaker F: At least I feel with someone else.
[00:08:51] Speaker B: Yeah, right.
D.C. was 25.
[00:08:56] Speaker C: I just made it up.
[00:08:59] Speaker D: Wait, so is it Nile and Alistair?
Yep.
[00:09:04] Speaker B: All right, well, I'm gonna need you to add a custom condition to your sheet called indoctrination.
[00:09:15] Speaker F: Oh, no.
[00:09:19] Speaker C: Guys, these are our spellcasters.
[00:09:22] Speaker B: And I'll tell you at a later time what it actually does.
[00:09:25] Speaker G: I'm just gonna throw you down the pit. It's fine.
[00:09:31] Speaker B: But this means that Nile and Alistair, you kind of awake. Not really feeling completely refreshed. Like you still mechanically get the benefits of being refres and having a full sleep, but something feels off.
And I'll start with you graveling.
What am I doing as you wake up?
I don't think it takes you long to notice that Lorelai is pacing nervously.
[00:10:09] Speaker C: Did you have that weird dream too?
[00:10:12] Speaker B: Dream?
No.
Though I think there may be a traitor in the blades.
While we were at the ball last night, some of the holy blood tried to attack the tunnels that no one but us should know about.
They had enough warning that they were able to escape, but less and less areas are starting to be safe.
[00:10:42] Speaker C: We might be able to use this though.
[00:10:47] Speaker B: You know, Maybe.
[00:10:48] Speaker C: Yeah, plan something.
Get the weasel to wease set up a kill circle.
Kill tunnel.
Tunnel, yeah. Kill box. That's much, much better.
[00:11:04] Speaker A: Oh.
[00:11:07] Speaker B: But. Strange dream.
[00:11:13] Speaker C: Yeah.
I don't think I even told you that the first time. This is. This is like what the second time the tyrants appeared in my dream to talk to me or really just kind of shout over me.
[00:11:35] Speaker B: That's worrying.
[00:11:37] Speaker C: Yeah, no, very.
Happened to like the rest of my crew, so. I'm gonna get up. I. I gotta check in on them.
Ah, Akos did say that this does just, I don't know, starts influencing you.
Maybe this is how it starts.
[00:12:12] Speaker A: That's.
[00:12:14] Speaker B: Yeah, I guess. Be careful then.
[00:12:18] Speaker A: Oh, yeah.
[00:12:19] Speaker C: I. I'mma be so real.
[00:12:22] Speaker F: Fine.
[00:12:24] Speaker C: There's literally nothing, absolutely nothing this guy can offer me.
[00:12:31] Speaker B: Good.
[00:12:31] Speaker C: He just does not have that kind of reach.
[00:12:36] Speaker B: Well, maybe he'll get the memo.
Yeah, I'm going to.
I'm going to huddle up with the rest of the blades and try to come up with a plan.
Cuz we're running out of safe houses.
[00:12:56] Speaker C: Yeah, just keep me. Keep me in the loop. I'll go touch base with my team.
[00:13:07] Speaker B: Yeah.
Any of the rest of you doing anything before making your way down to the.
The dining room?
[00:13:17] Speaker E: Just as a point of clarification, we remember. Do we remember the dream?
[00:13:26] Speaker B: Those of us that failed?
[00:13:28] Speaker E: And do we, remembering the dream, have any distinct feelings or impressions about the dream? Or is it just we feel off when we wake up in the morning?
[00:13:43] Speaker B: You just feel off when you wake up in the morning. Like, you know, you. You slept on the wrong side of the bed.
[00:13:50] Speaker E: Like we're not waking up. Like, oh, he is the best. We love our master.
[00:13:56] Speaker B: You're. You're not.
[00:13:57] Speaker F: We love daddy tyrant here, you know?
[00:14:01] Speaker B: Okay.
Yeah.
[00:14:05] Speaker E: In that case, I just do my daily spell preparations and head down groggily.
[00:14:14] Speaker D: I think, Yuri, as soon as they wake up, because I don't think they fell asleep willingly. I think they just got so exhausted from being cramped up in a prison for two weeks and then everything else that happened, I want to. Because I imagine like we have all the moss. Now, I want to send one out basically as soon as I wake up to Steinhardt explaining that I'm going to be coming by, I'm going to need their help for something.
[00:14:48] Speaker B: All right.
[00:14:50] Speaker D: With the moss, obviously.
[00:14:55] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:14:55] Speaker D: I guess I'm just gonna go down to the dining room. Annoyed I'm getting this stupid message. On top of everything else.
[00:15:06] Speaker G: Life, I think also very unwillingly went to sleep, had the dream, woke up extremely early and has just been sort of compiling resources here to take down.
[00:15:22] Speaker B: So you all eventually meet in the dining room.
[00:15:26] Speaker F: I don't care if there's a chef here. I'm cooking breakfast.
[00:15:28] Speaker B: Please, there's not a chef here.
[00:15:33] Speaker F: I get to make everyone a nice breakfast.
It's gonna be extra fancy because Nile's stress cooking a bunch of everything.
[00:15:42] Speaker D: They assume you all had the stupid dream with the stupid.
[00:15:49] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:15:52] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:15:58] Speaker C: They'Re getting bolder.
[00:16:02] Speaker D: They'Re getting desperate.
[00:16:05] Speaker A: Just.
[00:16:06] Speaker C: We're on the same base.
Offered you anything you could want.
[00:16:12] Speaker D: I'm done being lied to. So.
[00:16:17] Speaker E: What could I possibly want? I have an entire wizard tower.
[00:16:23] Speaker C: That you do.
[00:16:27] Speaker D: Does your wizard tower have any, like, magic items? I like, I don't know how people fly or something?
[00:16:36] Speaker B: Not that I found so far.
[00:16:40] Speaker D: I.
[00:16:40] Speaker E: But there, there's just so much there.
[00:16:45] Speaker D: Take a while. Okay.
[00:16:48] Speaker E: You want me to look for you?
[00:16:52] Speaker D: I don't think we have time. I have someone.
Steinhardt, you met them.
They may have something that could help us or at least know someone that could get in immediately.
Cuz I know there's a lot of stuff going on, but going down there.
[00:17:13] Speaker C: We've got some bad news up here, though.
Seems that with their numbers halved, there might be a mole in the bloody blades.
We're running out of safe houses and tunnels.
[00:17:33] Speaker A: Now, that's.
[00:17:41] Speaker C: Look, I hate to be the one to say it, but we might have to split up.
[00:17:47] Speaker D: That makes sense.
If we all go down in the pit and we all can't come out, well, the world's over, so.
[00:18:00] Speaker C: And even then, what if we come up and it's just worse?
[00:18:05] Speaker D: Exactly. No, I understand.
[00:18:06] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:18:07] Speaker D: I mean, I, I. Is Laith acting normal or.
[00:18:16] Speaker G: No, I mean, she's listening, but packing and not contributing.
[00:18:26] Speaker A: Well.
[00:18:29] Speaker D: Between the two of us, we should probably be fine.
And once you get Lou, obviously, I.
[00:18:39] Speaker C: Don'T think it should just be the two of you.
[00:18:44] Speaker D: Well, any volunteers?
I don't want to have you do spread thin up here.
[00:18:54] Speaker C: We do still have more allies up here, and I can.
I don't care if that just got out and hasn't walked in a month. He's gonna work.
[00:19:04] Speaker B: So he walks in at this. This moment and it's just like. Yep. No.
No rest for the wicked.
[00:19:13] Speaker F: The breakfast though.
[00:19:15] Speaker B: Oh my God. Real food.
[00:19:19] Speaker C: You basically have Union down on lock. If he's out though foreign.
[00:19:25] Speaker F: I'm not a cave expert, but I can go into the hole with these two.
[00:19:31] Speaker D: Well, it's not a cave, so I should be fine.
[00:19:34] Speaker F: Or pits under.
[00:19:36] Speaker C: It's actually not a bad idea. You might need more magic down there.
And I'll have Alistair, who has magic up here.
[00:19:49] Speaker D: Is Yuri's going to look at you. Questioning. Is Schism afraid of the dark?
No. Are you afraid of the dark?
[00:19:59] Speaker F: I can't see in the dark.
[00:20:03] Speaker B: Fancy goggles.
[00:20:04] Speaker G: Glasses for that.
[00:20:05] Speaker F: Yeah, right. I do have fancy goggles. Hold on. I can see in the dark for an hour a day. My bad. You see, I have a lack of object permeate sometimes. Says Tick. Forgetting that these are the glasses.
I keep mixing up the Crafter's goggles from another game with the goggles of night. That's on me.
[00:20:23] Speaker D: I'm sure we could find something for Schism to eat, depending what's down there.
Well, so three of us. Is that fine with you, Laith?
[00:20:40] Speaker B: Whoever.
[00:20:41] Speaker G: We have this. It's fine.
We just need to go.
[00:20:51] Speaker C: You should say goodbye to your sister first.
[00:20:56] Speaker G: Was. So she came to the ball with. No, she did not come to the ball with us.
[00:21:01] Speaker B: She's. She's been staring at the.
The Wilson Craft banner.
[00:21:09] Speaker G: She could be staying in the Mage Tower and it would be so much cooler for her. But no. No one listens to Leith.
[00:21:17] Speaker D: Want her to explode?
[00:21:20] Speaker G: Yeah, it's only if she goes in or out without us.
[00:21:24] Speaker B: That has. Has no food or water in it.
[00:21:27] Speaker G: We could bring her food and water.
Fine, but you can't.
[00:21:32] Speaker A: You're going into a pit.
[00:21:38] Speaker F: Yeah, I'm gonna pack food and water for the pit. Hold on. I gotta do that.
[00:21:41] Speaker A: Yeah, you do.
[00:21:43] Speaker G: No, but. So Nadia is not down here for this.
[00:21:47] Speaker B: Yeah, Nadia is probably, I don't know, still asleep or studying or something.
Okay, she's still attempting to go to Ravenswood in two months, buddy.
[00:21:59] Speaker A: Yeah, I think her.
[00:22:00] Speaker F: She's studious.
[00:22:02] Speaker G: I mean, who knows if we'll have a raven, but.
[00:22:07] Speaker A: Also a lot of.
[00:22:08] Speaker G: People getting kidnapped from that school.
[00:22:12] Speaker D: I was saying go talk to your sister.
[00:22:19] Speaker G: Yeah, fine.
And L will go to wake up Nadia.
[00:22:28] Speaker B: Yeah, we'll get to that in just a second. We're going to jump over to Alouette as you wake up in the pit, in the ruins of this old mansion that has been turned into almost a nest.
Are you still a bird?
[00:22:50] Speaker A: I think it. She's half a bird. I think she's half a bird.
[00:22:53] Speaker B: Hybrid transformation.
[00:22:54] Speaker A: Yeah, we got a little hybrid mode going on.
[00:22:59] Speaker B: And you see the giant sleeping form of your mother.
[00:23:05] Speaker A: She is still Albert.
[00:23:07] Speaker B: She is still all birds.
[00:23:13] Speaker A: Is the. Like you said, like, the mansion was turned into a nest. Does that imply, like, the roof has caved in and we're just sort of nesting on the top floor?
[00:23:21] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:23:22] Speaker A: Honestly, this is so similar to her bedroom back home.
Yeah.
Yeah. I think that now that she slept a little and has regained a portion of herself and has more, like, awareness of and will, it's starting to sink in that she is somewhere.
Is it pretty obvious that she's in a pit, or is that difficult to tell because we live in a world of night and the city's kind of deteriorating in certain areas anyway.
[00:24:00] Speaker B: It is honestly very easy to tell because there's more deterioration here than there is in other parts. There are no street lights.
There is. You can't even see the stars.
You're that far down.
[00:24:18] Speaker A: Okay. Okay. And it does still look like Malachid. Like, there's no reason to believe that's.
[00:24:23] Speaker B: The same kind of architecture.
[00:24:24] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:24:25] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:24:26] Speaker A: Cool.
I mean, not cool, but, like, you know, cool enough, I guess.
Yeah.
I think she is kind of panicking a little bit for understandable reasons.
But I think the. The instinct to. To just let the curse take over is sort of muted because it just had its day in the moon like, two minutes ago, so it's not as overwhelming. And she's. It's not even like she's like regular, regular Alouette. She's still half bird right now.
She's got, like, the. The beak face going on and feathers just everywhere. She's got talons.
She's not pleased with that, but whatever.
And she's going to.
She's going to try to, like, look around a little bit without waking up the giant bird monster that might be her mother or might eat her.
Yeah, 50. 50. Right now.
[00:25:44] Speaker B: Give me a perception check. Your. Your modifier is a 14.
[00:25:47] Speaker A: Chandri, why do you hate me?
That's going to be a 27.
[00:25:53] Speaker B: 27. You are looking around. This obviously was a house of some sort of noble family. Everything here nice at one point. And, you know, you're kind of climbed out of the nest and just sort of started poking around the upper rooms. When you hear footsteps on stairs coming up.
[00:26:14] Speaker A: Hiding. I'M hiding. I'm hiding immediately. There's nothing good down here.
[00:26:19] Speaker B: Yeah. Give me a stealth roll. Your Stealth is a plus 10.
[00:26:27] Speaker A: That is super comfortable. Then that is going to be a 22.
[00:26:33] Speaker B: 22.
Well, this person seems to be a little distracted.
You hear the sound of someone coming up the stairs onto the landing. Do you hear sort of a gruff, masculine voice and say, I got the.
The words set up properly.
The. The elves shouldn't be bothering us.
And then you kind of hear the cawing sound from your mother.
And there's like, a bit of cooing. And you hear the voice say, yeah, yeah, we'll figure out what to do.
[00:27:16] Speaker A: Carry on. Still hiding.
[00:27:18] Speaker G: Processing.
[00:27:18] Speaker A: Keep going.
[00:27:23] Speaker B: And you hear the male voice say, I guess.
[00:27:28] Speaker A: Does this sound like Talis? I've heard Talus speak.
[00:27:33] Speaker B: Give me a society check.
[00:27:36] Speaker A: Let's go.
[00:27:36] Speaker B: Society.
[00:27:38] Speaker A: That's a natural 19.
I know. I've got great Society.
[00:27:43] Speaker B: Yeah. No, the society of a plus 14. So that's 33. And yes, that is Tallis voice.
[00:27:53] Speaker A: Nobody can stay dead in this town. This is a blessing and a curse.
Have we actually killed anyone?
Gee, Louise, we got a double tap.
[00:28:06] Speaker B: It's like enemies have to make death saves, too. And maybe they both succeeded on their death saves.
[00:28:11] Speaker A: No, it's okay. It's fine. It's normal. This is good. This is great. This is normal. The only person who successfully killed someone still didn't kill them.
But, hey, you know what this is?
I am absolved of one murder.
We're down to only one murder in my life instead of two. So it's fine.
[00:28:32] Speaker B: Do you hear Talis's voice say, I'll try to venture out today and find more food.
Unsurprisingly, stores here are very low, But I'm getting closer and closer to the historical society.
Whatever I'm looking for should be in there.
[00:28:52] Speaker A: And.
[00:28:52] Speaker B: And you kind of hear the. The bird, like, cooing and cawing of your mother.
It seems like she's understanding him.
[00:29:01] Speaker A: Yeah, he seems to be understanding her, which is we.
It has dreadful implications.
Yeah. I'm going to stay hiding until he leaves, because I did try very hard to kill him and thought I succeeded, and he might remember that and hold it against me.
I don't know if they agreed on the kidnapping, the daughter's plan. That might have. She might have gone rogue. I don't know.
[00:29:33] Speaker B: Yeah, no, as. As you're doing this, at the end of it, there's a.
He does say, you can come out now.
I. I bear you no ill will.
[00:29:46] Speaker A: I don't know if that is mutual.
[00:29:50] Speaker B: Well, we may need to work together to get out of here.
[00:29:55] Speaker A: So I am gonna come out of that. Because you have a giant bird.
[00:30:02] Speaker B: Yes, but I need something.
And as you see. You see a very beleaguered and dirty looking talus. He's still wearing the same shirt and pants he was when you stripped his cloak off of him. It's bloody and dirty and his hair is matted and his beard is unkempt. That still same broken horn.
[00:30:26] Speaker A: What. What is it that you are looking for?
[00:30:29] Speaker B: Old journals of mine.
They're in the Historical society.
[00:30:35] Speaker A: You shall have a lot of those.
[00:30:38] Speaker C: I was very like six.
[00:30:40] Speaker A: We're starting a collection.
[00:30:43] Speaker B: It'll probably be worth something one day. But I'm correct. I have something that can help your mother in there.
[00:30:53] Speaker A: You've already helped her more than enough, I think.
[00:30:59] Speaker B: I didn't do this to her.
[00:31:01] Speaker A: It was in your notebook. It was in your handwriting. It was deciphered by your apprentice.
[00:31:07] Speaker B: I created the formula, but I didn't use it on her.
[00:31:12] Speaker A: And I should believe you why? You created an entire ghoul fever and set it loose on the population.
[00:31:19] Speaker B: Things that I'm not proud of.
[00:31:25] Speaker A: And also, what about all of your other abominations done in your little laboratory?
[00:31:29] Speaker B: Many things that I will pay for when we get out of here.
And as you're doing this, you watch as eloquence just kind of gently bumps his head with hers.
[00:31:42] Speaker A: Don't think just because you are my long lost mother, who I thought was dead twice and might not be, you could just be a bird. You know that I'm going to just trust you out of hand. Because you know what? I don't think anyone is this family is trustworthy. Not one of them. Maybe Yori. No, I'm not even gonna say Yuri, because then you might use that against me. I don't think any of them are trustworthy.
[00:32:04] Speaker B: Well, if I get my old journal, I can hopefully turn your mother back into a person.
[00:32:10] Speaker A: So you say.
[00:32:14] Speaker B: I don't have much ceremony to stand on right now.
I would like to right some wrongs and would like to make someone pay.
[00:32:27] Speaker A: Well, you can get in line. There are a lot of people who want to do those things. Are you or are you not part of the unbroken?
[00:32:36] Speaker B: Never officially.
[00:32:38] Speaker A: That's too official. You're already. You're all right. No, no, no.
[00:32:41] Speaker B: The tyrant got into my head and I worked with him for a while.
[00:32:45] Speaker F: Sure.
[00:32:49] Speaker B: They promised me the journal if I delete this for them. And Then they double crossed me.
[00:32:55] Speaker A: You betrayed the world for a book you wrote.
[00:33:00] Speaker B: You can't remember your own words.
[00:33:04] Speaker A: Love is overrated. I am learning that very rapidly.
[00:33:09] Speaker B: Believe me or not.
That is up to you.
If you want to make any kind of perception checks to see people, anything, anything.
[00:33:20] Speaker F: What is this?
[00:33:21] Speaker A: I don't trust this man. We did not fight him to the death. For me to just be like, yeah, you're so right, man.
[00:33:28] Speaker B: And I mean, you know, you probably caught the thing saying, saving someone he loves.
[00:33:34] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm piecing that together with another person who's been doing things like that. I'm going to use a hero point because this is too early for an 8.
That's better. I got a natural 16 plus whatever my modifier is for whatever you think feels appropriate here.
[00:33:50] Speaker B: Yeah, he.
He does not seem to be trying to actively deceive you.
And he seems to hold great care for your mother.
[00:34:07] Speaker A: Oh, he's not like. Give it. Look, hold on.
Is he having an affair with my mother?
[00:34:16] Speaker B: I mean, he might have been when she was not a bird.
[00:34:19] Speaker A: Sir, that observation, that very unpleasant observation is going to go elsewhere because you know what? We have priorities and that's somehow not one of them. Right now you are running around in a pit for books that you wrote and can't remember because I guess your memory is terrible.
Are you aware of other people who may be running around in a pit, possibly abducting like other people? You have so much in common, actually.
[00:34:59] Speaker B: Well, not personally met them, but I don't travel too far out because the Eld are the most worst of the problem in this pit.
[00:35:08] Speaker A: The elder is in the pit. The Eld, like the trees. The trees are in the pit.
[00:35:14] Speaker B: The things that animate the trees. Yes.
Oh, there are a lot of things for them to animate here.
[00:35:22] Speaker A: Oh, okay.
You know what? It occurs to me I have another important question, which is what am I doing here in a pit with. With you, whom I left very frosty, and with you, whom I left very dead. I planned your funeral. It was lovely.
[00:35:45] Speaker B: And he looks over at eloquence and just like. I would also like an answer to that. But I don't think you're in a place to give me an answer that may.
It's really hard to truly carry on a conversation like this.
[00:35:59] Speaker A: I can't imagine why.
I wonder whose fault it is.
[00:36:06] Speaker B: Bernard's.
[00:36:08] Speaker A: Aha.
And you say this why also?
No, no, no, never mind. I don't want an answer to that. Keep going. Why?
[00:36:21] Speaker B: Well, let's just Say that he used the formula that makes the transformation permanent on your mother.
[00:36:33] Speaker A: The ones that you made. The formula that you devised, just to.
[00:36:37] Speaker B: Be clear, never meant it to be actually used.
[00:36:41] Speaker A: Why did you make it then? You know these things are gonna get used if you make them. That is how it works. Have you never read a book ever?
Have you never gone to the theater? No. Operas for you?
[00:36:52] Speaker B: It was a precautionary.
[00:36:59] Speaker A: Okay, I don't know what you know about my family, but what kind of precautionary do you think you need that you want a bunch of cursed animals running around the city?
[00:37:11] Speaker B: I didn't necessarily want it.
[00:37:15] Speaker A: Sure. Okay. You're getting real on my nerves, Dallas.
[00:37:22] Speaker B: Well, I'll leave you two alone for now.
I'm going to go see if I can scout out anymore.
[00:37:30] Speaker A: I hope you trip and break your nose.
[00:37:34] Speaker B: Yeah, I deserve that.
[00:37:37] Speaker A: I would break it yourself, but I don't have.
I don't have my sword on me.
Ah. You know what I do have? She's gonna throw a card at him just. Just to cut him. Just to be mean.
She's had it.
[00:37:52] Speaker B: Yeah. You. You cut along his.
His shirt and like, as you do, it kind of reveals that, like, he has some sort of device implanted where his heart should be.
[00:38:04] Speaker A: Thanks.
Wait. Come back. What the heck is that?
[00:38:09] Speaker B: I've been able to survive and live hundreds of years.
[00:38:12] Speaker A: How many? Wait, like, I thought you were just like.
[00:38:17] Speaker F: I don't remember.
[00:38:18] Speaker A: An orc. A half orc. An elf. What is this man?
[00:38:21] Speaker B: An elf. Tiefling?
[00:38:22] Speaker A: I just thought you are an elf. They live forever. Anyway, don't you have, like, reckless and dance? It doesn't matter. We don't need to discuss this.
[00:38:33] Speaker B: But yeah, and kind of like show you that this is sort of this clockwork device where his heart should be.
It kicks in if I stop breathing.
[00:38:47] Speaker A: But it's like, immune to being frozen.
[00:38:53] Speaker B: It took several hours to kick in.
[00:38:57] Speaker A: I'm not going to be proud of that. I'm not going to be proud of that.
[00:39:00] Speaker B: Okay, like. Oh. Leave you two to catch up, I guess.
[00:39:08] Speaker A: She's not gonna, like, eat me, is she?
[00:39:13] Speaker B: No.
She may preen you, but you know she's not gonna eat you.
[00:39:21] Speaker A: Probably use it.
[00:39:25] Speaker B: And he leaves the mansion and we'll jump back to above ground. You find Nadia sitting at one of the desks in the room, going.
What would be her course books for Ravenswood?
[00:39:40] Speaker G: Leith will not say anything about that. Or the fact that people keep getting kidnapped at Ravenswood. And also that there are more important things going on.
Instead, Leith will just sort of knock on the doorframe and come in and.
[00:39:57] Speaker A: Say.
[00:39:59] Speaker G: Mirido and I will be heading sitting down.
We saw Alouette get dragged into above table. Aubrey, remind me of what the district is called.
Silverport Holo Haunt.
We saw Elouette get dragged down into Hollow Haunt, so we might be gone for a while.
[00:40:27] Speaker B: Oh, I hope she's okay.
[00:40:32] Speaker G: So do I.
[00:40:36] Speaker B: I'll just stay here and continue working, I guess.
[00:40:44] Speaker G: Yeah, you can always ask Alistair about the tower if you wanted to go look at it.
[00:40:58] Speaker B: Maybe. Maybe. We'll see.
I just don't want to be stuck inside of it.
[00:41:08] Speaker G: Well, that's why you have to ask him to go with you.
[00:41:14] Speaker B: You know, I've got what my course books should be, so I'm getting a jump on that for a couple months from now.
[00:41:23] Speaker G: Yeah, great.
[00:41:26] Speaker B: Great.
[00:41:30] Speaker G: All right, stay safe.
[00:41:34] Speaker B: You too.
[00:41:39] Speaker A: At least we'll leave.
[00:41:43] Speaker B: Anything else anyone wants to do at at the the mansion before leaving?
[00:41:52] Speaker F: I just need to pass pack whatever rations we need, make water supplies.
[00:41:55] Speaker A: Just.
[00:41:56] Speaker F: This is my. I'm packing anything that's like reasonably assumed to be usable. Like how Aki was like, let's do my pack Rope and that. Probably beautiful. You know, doing the packing and preparing.
[00:42:07] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:42:08] Speaker F: Snacks.
Actually, can I ask Ism something?
[00:42:13] Speaker B: Sure.
[00:42:16] Speaker F: Hey, dear. I have a question for you.
[00:42:19] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:42:21] Speaker F: You somewhat know of the tyrant, at least in your nature, right?
[00:42:29] Speaker B: This feels like a trick question.
[00:42:31] Speaker F: It's not.
We are literally stuck together. Even if you answered yes or no, I wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
[00:42:38] Speaker B: I am familiar with him.
He is the one that opened the portal to the dimension that I called home.
[00:42:49] Speaker F: Did he destroy your home?
[00:42:51] Speaker B: No.
[00:42:53] Speaker F: I suppose you're the one destroying homes then.
[00:42:56] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:42:59] Speaker F: Say, can you see my dreams?
That's fine. Can you see my dreams?
[00:43:07] Speaker A: No.
[00:43:09] Speaker F: He's been plaguing me and other people's dreams with threats, promises.
Why do you think he's bothering us?
[00:43:20] Speaker B: Probably because you threatened him.
[00:43:23] Speaker F: He's scared of us.
[00:43:28] Speaker B: Yeah, that makes sense.
[00:43:30] Speaker F: What's scary about us?
[00:43:35] Speaker B: Well, the whole world ending in seven months.
If you stop that, he doesn't get free.
[00:43:44] Speaker F: I see. So he thinks that we can stop them. Which is a fair assumption. We are pretty powerful.
[00:43:51] Speaker B: Or maybe he's just hedging his bets.
[00:43:55] Speaker F: Maybe he is being paranoid.
Well, I was mostly curious.
Oh, I wouldn't understand that. But I was going to say I understand that you don't become a good chef after being. Without being overly cautious here and there. With some ingredients, you know, you don't.
[00:44:20] Speaker B: Become a cannibal without being overly cautious about some valleys.
[00:44:25] Speaker F: Exactly.
Are you scared of the dark, by the way?
That's it.
[00:44:30] Speaker B: No. No.
All right. Is there any other scenes you want to have where you leave any possible fist fights between people?
[00:44:46] Speaker D: I don't know why I'm laughing. Why would I be insinuating that?
[00:44:49] Speaker B: I don't know. I don't know why you're insinuating anything.
[00:44:53] Speaker D: I need to. I was going to talk to Steinhardt.
I was gonna say, like, while Leith is talking to Nadia and Nile.
Do you. Do you think there's anyone else that could have something to help us get down there?
[00:45:13] Speaker B: You do. You will have to cross onto the other side of the city to talk to Steinhardt.
[00:45:18] Speaker D: That's less ideal. I forgot about that because he's in Silver Court.
[00:45:22] Speaker B: He's in the Clockwork.
[00:45:26] Speaker D: Sorry.
And I'm probably 17 kinds of wanted right now.
[00:45:30] Speaker B: Yeah.
And if you actually go and try this morning and today, the bridges are shut down.
[00:45:41] Speaker D: Oh, okay. So Steinhardt will understand that.
That I won't be able to go through.
[00:45:49] Speaker C: Leave a message with us to send to Steinhardt.
[00:45:53] Speaker D: I. I sent.
I sent him a moth, but he'll understand if I can't get there.
[00:46:03] Speaker C: Okay.
[00:46:06] Speaker D: Dustin.
Since forgotten the name.
Where. Who's. Who's the. Juni.
Okay.
[00:46:16] Speaker B: Yeah, you've got Juni on this side of the. The river.
[00:46:20] Speaker C: Tristan is also an inventor.
[00:46:22] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:46:23] Speaker D: Okay, you think with what's at the place. With Juni. Because Juni's smart as hell, right?
[00:46:29] Speaker B: Yeah. And so is Tristan. Tristan is an inventor.
[00:46:33] Speaker C: And that's also Tristan's shop.
[00:46:35] Speaker B: Yeah, it's also his shop and all of his tools.
[00:46:38] Speaker D: Okay, so maybe we make a pit stop there.
I'm sure with you, too. I mean, we look at Tristan.
You've been telling me everything and everything under the moon, so I believe you could probably do this. Fine.
[00:46:52] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah.
Depends on how fast you need to get down there.
If you can get to you. We need to get down there today. I can get a solution, but it'll take a few more days for me to develop a solution to get you back.
[00:47:08] Speaker D: I mean, you could deploy the solution getting us back after the fact.
[00:47:13] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, it's essentially to build an elevator of some kind.
[00:47:19] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:47:20] Speaker D: You'll need us for that.
[00:47:22] Speaker B: I appreciate it.
[00:47:23] Speaker D: But we, I think, understandably, render the rest.
[00:47:29] Speaker B: Well, I'm. You know, my wife kind of likes to jump off of high buildings, so I've been prepared for this.
[00:47:34] Speaker D: Oh, that's Convenient.
Okay, so I guess we're going to go to see Juni and shop. I'm going to look at late. He's probably done.
Everything okay with Nadia?
[00:47:51] Speaker A: All good.
[00:47:52] Speaker G: Ready to go?
[00:47:54] Speaker D: We could talk about it later.
[00:47:58] Speaker A: About.
[00:47:58] Speaker G: Whether you're ready to go.
[00:48:02] Speaker D: I'mma look at you and with like, looking at you like, you know what I meant. But I was going to be like, sorry.
[00:48:18] Speaker B: Yeah. Eventually, you. It does not take you that long to get into. Because funny enough, today is the first day that that Starlight Bastion is open.
[00:48:31] Speaker D: Oh, yay.
[00:48:38] Speaker B: Yeah. Today is the first day of the Starlight Passion is open. So you kind of have to sneak out, but you'll be able to just come back into the district normally.
[00:48:46] Speaker A: Okay. Okay.
[00:48:48] Speaker B: It does not take you that long to get over to the Darklight Bazaar and to North Star Armaments.
And Junie and Rook are working away in the shop when you enter.
[00:49:02] Speaker C: Tristan, this is Juniper. That's Rook.
We saved them both different times.
And they've been living here for a little bit.
And you too. This is Tristan.
[00:49:18] Speaker B: They all, like, kind of exchange awkward waves, and he's just like, oh, my God, so glad to see this place again.
And he's like, don't mind me. I'm gonna grab some stuff. And I'll grab the.
The stuff you need to get into the pit.
And journey was like, there's a pit?
[00:49:44] Speaker D: Yeah, we're going on a lose down there.
[00:49:50] Speaker B: Oh, do you need help?
[00:49:55] Speaker A: Are you.
[00:49:57] Speaker D: Are you sure?
[00:50:01] Speaker B: I mean, yeah. I mean, you've all helped me. You know, I feel like I might as well should get back.
[00:50:08] Speaker A: I mean, the more you helped us yesterday.
[00:50:12] Speaker F: What?
[00:50:12] Speaker G: What.
[00:50:13] Speaker C: What are you, a secret spelunker now?
[00:50:15] Speaker D: I was gonna say it's gonna be dangerous. Quite probably. I assume it's dangerous. It's. You know, wouldn't know what the is down there. A giant bird. That's for a fact.
[00:50:25] Speaker C: Two birds.
[00:50:27] Speaker D: Well, one's my aunt.
[00:50:30] Speaker B: Is that the one we have to look out for?
[00:50:32] Speaker D: I think so.
[00:50:33] Speaker B: Okay.
I just thought I'd offer. If you need an extra set of hands, I.
[00:50:42] Speaker D: Are you quick on your feet?
Are you?
Alchemy inventing? Do you make gun? I know you've been working on guns. Have you practiced shooting yet?
[00:50:54] Speaker B: Cool. Quite a bit, actually.
You know, we set up some targets and stuff in the evenings and try to make sure we're decent shots.
[00:51:05] Speaker A: But.
[00:51:06] Speaker B: Yeah, and you watch as, like, Tristan is, like, moving around and he's like, opening cabinets and grabbing some stuff out and graveling. He is going to toss You. A small device.
[00:51:20] Speaker C: What's this do?
[00:51:23] Speaker B: Hopefully that'll let us find our old suits.
I implanted all of them with a bit of a trackable alloy.
Eventually, you know, I'd like that stuff back. I spent quite a bit of time on it.
[00:51:40] Speaker C: God, I think I. I just assumed they destroyed my.
[00:51:46] Speaker B: I don't know, I think they might be a little too proud and wanting. Wanting to display it.
[00:51:50] Speaker C: Oh, good point.
Oh, but they didn't take this. And I, like, show them the.
The bracelet that he made me back in the prologue.
Didn't fucking take this good.
[00:52:07] Speaker B: And, you know, he's sort of grabbed like a. An old overcoat and one of his older rifles and all of that, and he's kind of just gotten some various bits and bobs and he's going to walk over to you, Yuri, and sort of hand you a sort of a satchel.
[00:52:32] Speaker D: Oh.
[00:52:33] Speaker B: But what's in here should be enough of.
They're essentially portable parachutes.
You strap it to your armor and then, you know, once you've jumped, it deploys.
[00:52:50] Speaker D: Oh, okay.
[00:52:53] Speaker B: As I said, my life. My life likes to jump off of high buildings for fun.
[00:52:59] Speaker C: I forgot she needed those.
[00:53:02] Speaker B: She hasn't needed them as much as, you know, she.
But, yeah, I.
[00:53:12] Speaker D: Thank you.
You know, there's like pen and pencils or paper around, right?
[00:53:22] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:53:22] Speaker D: Okay. I'm gonna look at them like. Okay.
In case you two.
You a lot need help. I have some people that would be glad to help you. I'm gonna write down a list of five names. I think it's four or five names.
Some people.
[00:53:49] Speaker F: That.
[00:53:50] Speaker D: They've been working with me over the past couple years.
I haven't spoken to them for most of them about a year. I mean, you know, Steinhardt.
These people will be glad to help you with anything. Supplies, if you need an extra hand for something.
They're all over the city.
This one more cautious. They're undercover as a lamplighter.
They're usually in Twilight Grove, so maybe trouble getting to right now.
[00:54:26] Speaker B: Yeah, just hopefully after a day or two, they'll open the bridges back up.
[00:54:30] Speaker D: Yeah, just, you know, tell them you know Cruz, and they'll help you.
[00:54:43] Speaker B: Good to know. We'll probably need all the allies we can get.
[00:54:48] Speaker D: Juny, you.
Are you sure you want to go again?
This is dangerous. I don't want you to doing something dangerous for. No need. Even though we'd appreciate it.
You've kind of done a lot already.
[00:55:05] Speaker B: Thanks. Thanks for a moment and says, I mean, I think I can help Tristan with The.
This elevator thing. If we work together, we can probably get it done really quickly.
[00:55:21] Speaker A: Okay.
Okay.
[00:55:22] Speaker D: Focus on that need. Is there anything we should.
You need us to do. Look to do before we jump into a pit. Looking at the rest of the not underground group.
[00:55:41] Speaker C: Can't really think of anything besides.
Oh, I take out my archaic wayfinder with the. It still still has its, like, rose quartz in it. And I'll just hand it over to one of you and be like, it's not the best wayfinder in the world, but these things are called wayfinders for a reason.
[00:56:05] Speaker A: So, I mean.
[00:56:07] Speaker C: Yeah. So, like, I actually googled it. In theory. This thing does still work like a compass. And so I don't know how it's gonna work underground, but, like, plenty. It's a. It's a standard dungeon game. So in my. I'm just assuming that it will work. But it's archaic, so it's like it can't do all the cool things that wayfinders can do. But I'm going to let you keep the.
[00:56:32] Speaker A: The.
[00:56:33] Speaker C: The quartz in there so you guys can cast shield for one action.
So maybe you don't want to give it to Niall who can cast shield and it should go to one of you two.
But the idea is compass and one action shield is moved to y'.
[00:56:53] Speaker F: All.
[00:56:54] Speaker E: Whoever is navigating.
[00:56:56] Speaker F: Maybe I could have double shield as a treat.
That's a joke.
Okay, That's a joke. It'll be funny.
[00:57:02] Speaker C: I answered. I talk faster than you. I answered.
[00:57:07] Speaker F: Like you can. No oil. Like, it's okay. I don't need double shield. But it would be funny.
[00:57:13] Speaker B: As they swear. The team splits.
[00:57:16] Speaker F: Wait.
All right, gang, let's split up.
[00:57:20] Speaker B: As you know, all of this and Tristan is getting ready. Tristan will sort of like pull you aside, graving and said, I think I might know someone who can get us a line on where she is.
I haven't talked to them in a while, but I don't think they hate me.
[00:57:37] Speaker C: Is this going to bite us in the ass?
[00:57:40] Speaker B: I don't think so. They've been pretty anti nobility.
[00:57:49] Speaker A: Okay, okay.
[00:57:51] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. I go and I give him a side hug.
And this is probably the best hug he's ever received from me.
And then I. And then I. And then I slink my hand back like I've done something disgusting.
[00:58:08] Speaker B: And as soon as we can get over the bridge, you know, we go see the kids.
[00:58:12] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:58:16] Speaker B: Okay, so we'll split and watch as the going down the hole team starts to head towards the hole.
[00:58:29] Speaker F: Oh, Shit, for real?
[00:58:32] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:58:33] Speaker F: I'm sorry, that came out condescending.
[00:58:38] Speaker C: No, I read that as surprise, not condescension. I just think it's funny.
[00:58:42] Speaker F: Okay, perfect. That was the intent.
[00:58:45] Speaker B: Yeah.
Alouette, you did get the. The moths. I will remind you if you wanted to send a message back.
[00:58:52] Speaker A: I do.
I suspect she's not super aware of what the message that she got was because I believe she was a bird when she got it.
And that's. And there was no one around to coax her brain out of the bird. You know what I mean?
So I don't think she actually knows what was sent to her, but she knows that the message moths are from the group. There's very few people who have those in the world.
I feel. Hold on, I'm just gonna real fast for funsies.
Okay. I just rolled a will save just for funsies. Because I remembered what my will was from the earlier roll. I just wanted to know if I would eat one of the moths. And I did roll a four.
[00:59:38] Speaker D: Not again.
[00:59:43] Speaker A: I think maybe she ate one of them. If not her, then her mother. Somebody ate them off.
It just looks so prey, like.
[00:59:53] Speaker D: Oh, you know, delicious. Like a moth.
[00:59:55] Speaker A: Yeah, it's very crunchy.
She does find the second one in the morning.
Probably just has an aftertaste of metal. But that could have been blood. Who knows? It was a weird night.
And she is going to send a message to.
And she will say to Graveling, Kato, I don't know if this means a last name or not. I think that's your last name.
I wanted to know if your brother in law is okay and safe and if he got home to his. His family all right and if everyone else is okay after everything like juniper and whiskey and. And everyone.
I don't know what might have been on the message to begin with, but I.
I am not in danger necessarily.
It's complicated.
But I am having a weird family reunion.
And also Talis is not dead, but that is fine. And you all have bigger priorities right now, like finding your sister and also the undersea world. So I think maybe don't waste our limited resources on me. No matter what Yori probably thinks because I will get out of here sooner than later, I think. And you have a bigger. And then it probably cuts off because she's been talking a while. Probably doesn't get there the rest of that sentence.
[01:01:37] Speaker B: Yeah, pit crew. You do watch this moth fly up and away from the pit as you arrive.
[01:01:45] Speaker D: That's a good sign.
Just not to any of us.
[01:01:50] Speaker A: Did we did. We.
[01:01:54] Speaker C: We as a group, went there and then the pig crew went down.
[01:01:58] Speaker F: Right.
[01:01:58] Speaker C: So I can get this moth basically right now.
[01:02:01] Speaker A: Cool. I mean, how much of that.
[01:02:03] Speaker C: How much of that do I get? No, this is ridiculous.
[01:02:06] Speaker F: Literally.
[01:02:07] Speaker B: Until it cuts it off at the end.
[01:02:11] Speaker C: Whisper on the wing, because I'm not sending this mop back down just yet.
[01:02:16] Speaker F: 2.
[01:02:18] Speaker C: Yo, Toe Moran.
The bitch is fine. The bitch is alive. The bitch's mom's alive. Talis is still alive. The bitch doesn't want to be saved. Go save her. Because clearly she fell on her head.
[01:02:34] Speaker D: I think I hear that. And then I might have screamed that.
[01:02:38] Speaker C: And you get a double in your.
[01:02:41] Speaker D: I don't know how well Niall and Lathe could hear over the rushing wind of us free diving into a pit with a parachute, but you're just gonna hear your ego.
[01:02:54] Speaker C: Language.
[01:02:56] Speaker D: No, you.
[01:02:59] Speaker F: I don't need to be mean.
[01:03:03] Speaker D: They think they're okay. And they think Dallas and.
Sorry, we're falling. Dallas. And their mom is alive and they're doing okay. They don't want to be saved. I don't know what that means. We're still going down.
When do we push these shoots?
[01:03:19] Speaker B: It's about, like halfway down. It's so far from what you can tell when you hit a bottom. Hit bottom. It's about a mile long, but a mile deep.
[01:03:28] Speaker D: Jesus Christ.
Sorry, Star. Mother.
[01:03:35] Speaker F: Would that be Jesus Christ?
[01:03:38] Speaker D: Sorry. No, that was someone I used to know.
[01:03:41] Speaker A: Jesus.
[01:03:44] Speaker D: You're not going to meet them. He moved away.
[01:03:50] Speaker B: So, yeah, you. Your shoots deploy about halfway down and you are sort of able to like, gently settle down into the hollow haunts, this very silent hill, esque as all of these old decaying buildings. And you see where civilization used to exist but no longer does.
It's hard to tell exactly where you are, but you all sort of get the feeling as you sort of land and take off the shoots that you are being watched.
[01:04:39] Speaker G: And we look around and see if we can see anyone.
[01:04:45] Speaker D: Yeah.
[01:04:45] Speaker B: Give me perception checks.
[01:04:49] Speaker D: I know this trick.
[01:04:50] Speaker F: I love perceiving things.
[01:04:56] Speaker G: 31.
[01:04:58] Speaker F: I got a NAT one. We're good.
[01:05:00] Speaker D: And dicks, man.
That's a 27.
[01:05:07] Speaker B: A 27 Nile. You're a little tangled up in your shoot. It's hard to notice anything.
And that's when Leith and Yuri, you both notice these things, these creatures, this amalgam of bone, rot and vines sort of crawling up from the ground that they lay on, coming together as forms.
As you come face to face with the ELD again.
[01:05:42] Speaker D: How they kill two already.
[01:05:46] Speaker F: My ass is tangled up in a parachute.
[01:05:47] Speaker A: Yay.
[01:05:49] Speaker B: And we'll leave you there for the time being as we jump back out of the pit to the rest of the group. As you all prepare for what comes next. There is someone else to save and we are going to be leaving the pit crew hanging for just a little bit as say that's a pretty good place to end the first episode of the season.
[01:06:33] Speaker F: Have you considered not like killing us every single time?
