Episode Transcript
[00:00:00] Speaker A: Sam.
Waking up dreaming dark so long I cannot find meaning hold my hand Let me stay by your side through this never ending night I can feel it now it holds me all the these demons always roam me in this red light because me he is reaching out consuming.
[00:01:32] Speaker B: Hello everybody. Welcome back to Goblin Skaze. I'm Aubrey, your gm. Also players to tell you who they are, who they're playing. Then we'll go rolling into things.
[00:01:41] 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.
[00:01:55] Speaker C: Hello, I'm Dusty. I use they, he pronouns. Name playing Yurido, formerly Moran, still a problem, Just angrier now. They are a blood Hunter Nephilim problem.
Just.
Just trying to fix things, even though it's all bad. They also use they, he pronouns.
[00:02:20] Speaker D: Hi, I'm Alyssa. My pronouns are they, them. And I play Laithrisi, the fourth dhampir, Dandy Rogue, failed matricide with a negative one constitution modifier. Leith uses she anymore pronouns.
[00:02:33] Speaker E: 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?
[00:02:46] Speaker B: So the question now is, what happened last time?
[00:02:50] Speaker E: Hi, guys. Yuri has every disease at once.
So we were ambushed by the ELV after getting all of the fun supplies from the vault, and we ended up, you know, fighting some eld, as one does with the giant spore plant, doing sickness damage to us at every single opportunity. Wait, hold on one sec.
So we had to fight some eld. We survived. Turns out Grandpa is really strong. And also Talis is competent, unfortunately. But honestly, I'm just ready to throw it into the eld and we made it out of the ELD infested area. So safe and somewhat. Safe and somewhat sound. Parentheses. Yuri's probably got L disease. But it's okay. It's. It's fine. He's already got, like. He's super cursed. He has tetanus now he has L disease. Like, probably.
[00:03:39] Speaker B: Well, but Yuri, before we do anything else, I'm going to need you to give me some fortitude checks because you did in last session poisoned.
So give me a fortitude check to see how we give you a fortitude check. DC 23, are we.
[00:03:54] Speaker A: Can I. Is this a. Is this a hit point thing? Can I please feed Them, the chalice.
[00:04:01] Speaker B: I mean, you can give them hit points back if they lose any, but.
[00:04:07] Speaker A: They don't have many left.
[00:04:10] Speaker C: That's 28.
[00:04:11] Speaker B: 28. Okay. Then you're able to shake off the wraith, find venom before you move up any stages.
[00:04:18] Speaker A: Good.
[00:04:19] Speaker C: Does that mean I'm no longer stupefied?
[00:04:22] Speaker B: Yeah, that goes away as well.
So, yeah, you all run back to the mansion with the distraction that eloquins is giving you, dropping the fire bombs and being a giant bird, being very loud and all of that. It helps.
And you will make it back to the mansion one more person in tow and slightly battered.
As far as you know. It'll be a couple of days before you can leave, depending.
[00:05:02] Speaker C: I think an important question is how does eloquence respond to seeing Vittorio once they're back?
There is inventoria.
[00:05:18] Speaker A: Yeah. Does his portrait exist still or was that, like, mixed up the family tree?
[00:05:25] Speaker B: That had actually been mixed out of the family tree because, you know, he's been labeled a heretic and all that. So, you know, they tried to erase him from the family history other than don't be like Vittorio.
So, yeah, there is. There is a bit of confusion, especially before you introduce them.
[00:05:49] Speaker A: They're all. Well, they are at least in bird form.
[00:05:52] Speaker B: So, like, yeah, yeah, you know.
[00:05:54] Speaker C: You know, that is. That is a good indicator of who the they are.
[00:06:00] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:06:00] Speaker A: First guess is probably not going to be Vittorio, but, like, at least the guess is, oh, is this one of my children?
No, but right, family.
[00:06:12] Speaker B: Yeah, there is that. There is confusion and there is.
Vittorio takes a moment, once you've all gotten there to sort of master himself and get the curse back under control, Being sort of the back to the normal tiefling form.
And looks up at eloquence and goes, I am so sorry for what I have wrought upon this family.
Seems regretful, his eloquence.
[00:06:47] Speaker A: I know she can't talk right now, but does she do anything?
[00:06:51] Speaker B: There's a lot of, like, looking and moving around him and kind of, like making curious bird noises looking up at you.
[00:07:01] Speaker A: Oh, right.
Introductions. Mama, this is somehow Vittorio.
That's Vittorio.
Vittorio, this is my mother.
This is my cousin.
That's all of the introductions of family. This is laith, and this is Niall. And then we don't care about him.
[00:07:40] Speaker B: It gives like.
Well, that certainly says a lot.
[00:07:47] Speaker A: So I guess mama likes him, but I don't.
[00:07:54] Speaker C: Yuri is, like, trying to start to talk a lot, and his face is getting more and more, like, convoluted, convexed, just.
And then finally goes.
So who actually put you in there?
[00:08:13] Speaker B: The Holy Blood.
Captain Elias Score of the Holy Blood.
[00:08:19] Speaker C: Right, right, right. So they put you in there.
We have problems with them too.
[00:08:26] Speaker B: The. As you mentioned.
[00:08:28] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:08:30] Speaker A: Elias Goro is. I did not think he was quite that old.
[00:08:37] Speaker B: And that's where Talos will speak up and say he's certainly a lot older than he looks.
[00:08:45] Speaker A: There seems to be a lot of that going around.
Grandpapa, you look great.
I don't know how many grades you are. I kind of lost track. But you know, they don't keep very careful records of you.
[00:08:59] Speaker B: At least. At least two if we're almost. What.
[00:09:09] Speaker A: Are you older than the tyrant? Like the tyrant's arrival?
[00:09:14] Speaker B: Yes, I remember the sun.
[00:09:18] Speaker C: What the fuck?
[00:09:19] Speaker E: The sun's real.
[00:09:22] Speaker B: Yes, credibly.
[00:09:24] Speaker A: Was it nice?
[00:09:26] Speaker B: It was warm.
And one of the many things that I took for granted.
[00:09:37] Speaker C: I understand that you were just in there for a very long time. Probably thinking about the reason why you were in there. However, I do need to know from you, how did this whole curse started?
[00:09:52] Speaker B: Well, this is a long story.
[00:09:56] Speaker C: We got a couple days.
[00:09:58] Speaker B: Yes. Well, let's settle in and walk you through how everything went.
You wouldn't happen to have tea or honestly anything?
[00:10:16] Speaker E: Yes, yes.
[00:10:18] Speaker A: Oh yes.
[00:10:22] Speaker E: Niall would be prepared as he's saying this. I think Niall whips out the leftovers from lunch that he has just had on him for this exact moment and hands over a surprisingly well made meal that was already made and prepped. Everything's like, here you go. It'll make you feel better.
[00:10:40] Speaker A: You may have noticed running through for our lives. This district is not exactly part of the city anymore. It is sort of in hole.
[00:10:53] Speaker B: They did guess something had happened.
[00:10:57] Speaker A: Uninhabited. So this is not where we usually live.
[00:11:02] Speaker C: Though.
We don't exactly have places where we usually live anymore. At least I don't.
[00:11:09] Speaker A: I mean we might still have, you know, the. The Wolfson. Wolf. Wolfson.
[00:11:16] Speaker C: The manor.
[00:11:17] Speaker A: Yeah. That's why I could try to say wolf.
The. Like the shoot Nazi game.
[00:11:24] Speaker C: The Wolfenstein Manor.
[00:11:26] Speaker A: That's why I kept trying to go for it. I'm like, no.
And.
And that's about it.
Oh, and we have a.
This is.
We have a clock tower. In theory. It is not like of a kitchen or nothing. And we have a wizard tower in. In theory. As long as we have our friend with us.
[00:11:47] Speaker C: Yes.
[00:11:47] Speaker A: To keep it from exploding our bodies.
Whiskerfield. Yes. Yes.
[00:11:55] Speaker B: I don't remember the tower.
[00:11:57] Speaker A: Oh.
[00:11:58] Speaker C: Oh, that's pretty cool.
[00:11:59] Speaker A: I would be delighted to ask you about it, I think.
[00:12:01] Speaker C: Oh, gosh.
[00:12:04] Speaker A: What?
[00:12:06] Speaker B: Since the city was built.
[00:12:11] Speaker C: Oh, wow.
[00:12:14] Speaker A: I think that is the only places we have that are like safe to go. Oh, there is grave wing shop, but it is at full capacity especially I hope now. I would hope because that is like a brother in law's shop. So I would hope he is leaving there again.
[00:12:29] Speaker B: We.
[00:12:29] Speaker C: We should probably avoid having. No offense.
I'm just going to call you Vittorio.
[00:12:37] Speaker B: That's fine.
[00:12:39] Speaker C: We probably don't want people to know that you're out.
We already kind of have a lot of the public very angry at us. More. More so me very specifically.
[00:12:53] Speaker A: And we can't go back to the house because it is occupied by people we no longer trust.
[00:13:03] Speaker C: Correct.
And someone I've never trusted.
[00:13:06] Speaker A: But I mean, the house is still your. Your. This is your house. It is still standing and in decent condition.
[00:13:17] Speaker B: Okay, good to know.
But yes, you asked. You asked the question. How did this all happen?
Yeah, I remember those days before the tyrant came.
The Malika had its problems. Still dealt with the Eld, the watching wood.
[00:13:40] Speaker C: But.
[00:13:42] Speaker B: You know, people were helpful.
And then one day it happened.
Everyone watched the sun be eclipsed and then never return.
The fear and anxiety that everyone was feeling was overwhelming.
And people were just looking for something, anything.
Monsters were pouring from all corners and there was no way that the hunters could keep up.
But back then, the Holy Blood were very religious, very devoted to the Star Mother and took their jobs very seriously.
They wanted to help people and they channeled their power through their religion.
But that was when looks over at Talis and says. Do you remember when everything changed? Right.
Talos will not dear.
There was about 10 years after the tyrant arrived. 10 years of slowly dying the city slowly dying.
The Coffin Walk used to be a thriving district.
Full of people, full of life.
And then the monsters destroyed the majority of it.
And the Holy Blood were running out of options.
And I was brought in to help.
To find any way to give them the upper hand.
Help them survive, Help them fight back the monsters and keep the people safe.
I remember when Gor was just a simple soldier.
One of the many people who volunteered to let us experiment on them.
I'm not particularly proud of what we did, but desperate times call for desperate measures.
And we only tested on volunteers.
And all of us came together.
And that's when I discovered wasn't alchemy. It was old magic.
Old magic from.
From maybe devil places.
To felt.
[00:16:44] Speaker C: No, no, we. I understand.
[00:16:47] Speaker B: It's just okay to believe this was something to do with the Summer Court.
Summer Court used to be warriors.
They were the protectors of Mabed, led by Oberon.
[00:17:12] Speaker A: And.
[00:17:15] Speaker B: I got my hands on notes on old books, journals.
This battle was desperate.
I thought I knew what I was doing, and so I tried it on myself because I wasn't sure about it.
The least I could do is minimize damage.
I didn't realize it would affect everyone. I did not realize it would taint our entire family line.
[00:17:53] Speaker A: Where does Elias Core come into it?
[00:17:57] Speaker B: When he learned what I did, he threatened me. Tried to make me do this spell on the members of the Holy Blood.
I refused because I saw what it did to me. I saw what it did to my wife. I saw what it did to my children.
And I've had a long time to come to terms with what I did.
[00:18:25] Speaker D: Why lock you in the vault? Why not just kill you?
[00:18:28] Speaker B: They tried.
The bird wouldn't let them.
[00:18:35] Speaker D: Sort of looks over at Yuri.
It's unfortunate that that hasn't quite carried through.
[00:18:43] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:18:46] Speaker C: I mean, honestly, that would be comforting to know after everything I've been through.
I don't know if I've. I. I don't know.
So.
Yeah, go, please.
[00:19:04] Speaker B: They decided to. I burned all of the notes, all of the journals so they could never get their hands on them. The only place where I needed taps as far as up in my head.
So I think it was lock me away in the family vault for years until maybe I decided to cooperate.
[00:19:31] Speaker C: When did they lock you in? What year?
[00:19:35] Speaker B: Well, if my.
My math is correct, it should be.
He's thinking. He's doing math. The year 1577. So it was.
It's about 75 years ago.
1502.
[00:19:58] Speaker A: How is it?
Did.
Did they. Because the vaults are activated by blood. Did they just steal your blood to lock you in?
They ever come back?
[00:20:13] Speaker B: Well, it was technically my own son who locked me in there.
He was a member of the Holy Blood.
I followed Gore.
[00:20:25] Speaker A: Betrayal runs deep in this family.
[00:20:29] Speaker B: Yeah, well.
[00:20:34] Speaker C: Yeah, that is unfortunately, a little troubling, knowing everything that is currently happening.
Because my mother, who is not a Valer, they are. Moran, is working with Allayas Gore very closely and experimenting on my father, who is a Valerie.
[00:21:09] Speaker B: Above.
[00:21:10] Speaker D: Sorry, above table. Aubrey Tallis is the one who created the Holy Blood monster. Dealy.
[00:21:24] Speaker B: Yeah, he created the mutagen they use.
[00:21:26] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:21:26] Speaker D: Okay, so Leith is going to look over to Tallis and ask.
So how long after he was locked away did you undo his defiance then?
[00:21:39] Speaker B: Well, I worked with what I had. I didn't have Vittoria Naz's head.
But we had his son. And through his son I was able to synthesize a temporary mutagen.
[00:21:59] Speaker A: It is based off of our family.
[00:22:04] Speaker B: Yes.
And then.
[00:22:11] Speaker A: And just points at eloquence.
You know. You really suck.
[00:22:19] Speaker B: I'm aware.
[00:22:22] Speaker C: I'm honestly really close to just shooting you at this point, Dallas.
But I think he's just suffer.
[00:22:28] Speaker B: So I was gonna say that would actually be a quick death.
[00:22:34] Speaker C: Yeah. Yeah. You know, I have anger issues, as you are aware of.
[00:22:38] Speaker B: I'm very aware of it.
[00:22:43] Speaker A: So.
[00:22:50] Speaker B: Lou.
[00:22:51] Speaker A: You.
[00:22:55] Speaker C: Queen the from.
[00:23:01] Speaker A: Yes.
That.
Huh.
Damn.
[00:23:07] Speaker C: They really. They really like to like.
Like. You know, not tell you everything.
[00:23:14] Speaker A: I just have one of those pieces, I suppose.
Trusting, gullible.
[00:23:26] Speaker C: I mean I.
I guess they probably know that we don't know.
But now they. What if we do but they actually be helpful for us now?
[00:23:39] Speaker A: I don't.
Let me. Hang on.
Let me.
Ah, shoot. I didn't write down the bit about Oberon that I learned from Prim.
[00:23:58] Speaker D: She's gone, right?
[00:23:59] Speaker A: I know he's gone. Yeah.
Was it. Did Prim imply that he was gone because Mab did something to him or that like. Or she said that he's dead.
[00:24:10] Speaker B: Grim said that the. Everyone believes Oberon to be dead.
[00:24:17] Speaker A: Okay. She didn't give any insight into Mab's opinion on that.
[00:24:23] Speaker B: She believes Mab also believes he's dead.
[00:24:25] Speaker E: Okay.
[00:24:26] Speaker B: That's the con. This is the common belief is that o' Brien is dead and Map killed him.
[00:24:30] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:24:33] Speaker B: But then there's also the hint with the.
The chorus.
[00:24:37] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah. There. That's intriguing as well.
[00:24:41] Speaker C: I. I'm going to look at Victoria. I was like. Well, Queen, Map has been in contact with one of us recently.
[00:24:50] Speaker B: Oh, that's.
[00:24:55] Speaker C: Concerning. Yes.
[00:24:56] Speaker B: Incredibly.
[00:24:58] Speaker C: Yeah. That's what I thought.
[00:25:01] Speaker A: I am under the impression that Map killed Oberon.
[00:25:08] Speaker B: That would be news to me. But yet again, I was in a hold for 75 years.
[00:25:14] Speaker A: That is just. I don't know how trustworthy the information is. Because it came from within the court.
But it came from someone who Maybe a lie.
I don't know. It's all very complicated. But it's possible that it is true.
Or at least.
At least Map believes that he is dead.
[00:25:38] Speaker C: Is there anyone from your past that you actually trust that's maybe still around?
[00:25:58] Speaker B: True to say.
[00:26:00] Speaker C: I mean, I get it. But you know, I thought it would at least.
[00:26:03] Speaker B: So much has changed in the 75 years I've been down here.
[00:26:08] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean. Still no son.
[00:26:15] Speaker B: I know. I have a giant list of people you should never trust under any circumstances.
[00:26:22] Speaker C: Oh, okay.
[00:26:23] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:26:23] Speaker A: That is still useful.
[00:26:25] Speaker C: Yeah. A lot of these families are still around, unfortunately.
[00:26:29] Speaker A: Reminds me of your new ones that also are bad.
[00:26:33] Speaker C: Yes.
[00:26:34] Speaker B: Wonderful.
[00:26:36] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Honestly, Alistair could probably fill you in pretty well.
[00:26:47] Speaker A: He is up on the surface.
He's a very good detective. Very tapped into the goings on in this city.
[00:26:54] Speaker C: The great mass detective is over there. No doubts.
Well.
[00:27:02] Speaker B: I have no clue if he's still around or not anymore.
[00:27:05] Speaker C: But.
[00:27:08] Speaker B: I was someone to pass through occasionally.
He was suspicious. But I always felt like I could at least trust him.
[00:27:17] Speaker D: Cowboy hat.
[00:27:18] Speaker B: Cowboy hat? Yeah.
[00:27:22] Speaker C: How? Seriously?
[00:27:25] Speaker A: You. You saw. You saw all of the skeleton hands?
[00:27:30] Speaker C: No, you're. You're right. You're right.
[00:27:32] Speaker A: Just a man.
[00:27:35] Speaker C: A lot was happening. To be fair. He stole around.
I actually owe him.
[00:27:42] Speaker A: Something.
[00:27:45] Speaker B: Many things.
[00:27:47] Speaker C: Oh, that's.
Well, I'm sure I'm. I'll find a way to find you, I suppose. Do you think.
[00:27:59] Speaker B: Do you know what? I would not put it past him.
[00:28:02] Speaker A: What did you ask?
[00:28:03] Speaker C: He could get us out of this hole.
[00:28:05] Speaker A: Oh, you know.
I mean, theoretically, mother could get us out of the hole one by one.
[00:28:16] Speaker C: I don't think our friends would trust them.
[00:28:20] Speaker B: We could do it two by two.
I could also turn into.
[00:28:26] Speaker A: You can fly?
[00:28:28] Speaker B: Yes, I can.
[00:28:29] Speaker A: I want to fly. I just run around.
[00:28:33] Speaker C: I don't have wings, so.
[00:28:36] Speaker A: Yeah. Why is that? Are they all birds? You wouldn't know.
Yuri is not a bird.
[00:28:41] Speaker C: I'm not a bird.
I don't. I'm pretty sure my father isn't a bird either.
[00:28:49] Speaker B: I love to study that.
Or not, actually. Because I wouldn't study it without your permission.
[00:28:56] Speaker A: Do you. Did you do. Is it birds on purpose? Was that like a choice that you. It was the design choice.
[00:29:05] Speaker B: Well, they.
My wife kept birds.
I.
It called for an item from an animal. I grabbed a blue j. Fe.
[00:29:24] Speaker A: That's kind of cute.
[00:29:27] Speaker C: That is.
Huh?
Now I'm a little more confused actually.
[00:29:35] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:29:36] Speaker A: I don't.
[00:29:37] Speaker B: I don't know what might have happened but.
[00:29:43] Speaker C: Because like I'm. I'm pretty far like my. Imagine the most up deer you've ever seen. Imagine the worst. That's me.
[00:29:53] Speaker A: Maybe it's like mutated through generations.
[00:29:59] Speaker C: Horns get all up. It's wild.
[00:30:02] Speaker A: It's kind of cool. As though. Scary, but cool.
[00:30:05] Speaker B: Yes, that is something to look into.
Honestly, I would not put it past the spell from the feywild to mutate as time goes on.
[00:30:20] Speaker A: You don't happen. Oh no. Your question first. You're Talking about that your dad.
[00:30:24] Speaker C: I. I don't think my dad's a deer either. I've only saw him transformed once. But it definitely had. He didn't have horns in this transformation. I think I was very young.
[00:30:36] Speaker B: We could certainly figure out.
[00:30:40] Speaker C: I would like to get them out of that family house. But that's a future problem.
[00:30:47] Speaker A: You don't happen to know how to break?
Well, we've been calling it a curse, but it sounds like it is a spell. Do you know how to undo the spell and you just couldn't cuz you are in a vault.
[00:31:01] Speaker B: I have ideas on what might break the spell, but that was not one of the things in the notes that I bargained for.
[00:31:14] Speaker A: What did bargains?
[00:31:17] Speaker B: They made a bargain with a fae for the notes.
[00:31:23] Speaker A: Oh. What was the nature of that?
[00:31:27] Speaker B: He sort of tries to speak for a moment just going.
One of the many things is. I can't speak on what the actual bargain is.
[00:31:36] Speaker A: That's a convenience.
[00:31:40] Speaker C: Can you write it down? Can you like charades?
Lose very good at charades.
[00:31:47] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:31:47] Speaker B: Unfortunately I cannot speak of what the bargain was.
But it was a price that I purely purely paid.
[00:31:59] Speaker D: Well you were down there.
Could you hear what was happening outside of your vault? Or was it just silence?
[00:32:10] Speaker B: Dude was silence.
The thoughts are spelled to block noise.
I could feel when everything went woof.
But as to hearing anything. No.
[00:32:29] Speaker A: That must have been very lonely.
[00:32:34] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah it was.
But if you wanted I could certainly work with eloquence and we could fly everyone out of here.
[00:32:51] Speaker D: Juni was putting such work into the elevator.
[00:32:54] Speaker B: Or you could wait at the end to that. It doesn't.
I'm just happy to be out.
[00:33:01] Speaker C: I honestly think doing that. However the most. I think we would need to let them know who's coming. So people who could use message as to not attack the two birds could the tunnels.
[00:33:17] Speaker A: But as we chased the the kidnapper through. Could we fly to the tunnels and then just take those out? Then we don't have to bring birds into the city at all.
[00:33:28] Speaker C: But that. That isn't.
That leads into salvation row, right?
[00:33:35] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:33:35] Speaker C: And that's really heavily.
[00:33:38] Speaker B: None of your Lorelei don't know that.
[00:33:41] Speaker A: We don't know the state of the city right now.
[00:33:44] Speaker C: But wasn't it like. Didn't we know people were like head hunting it head hunting over there?
[00:33:50] Speaker A: We. Yeah. I don't know if we knew that yet either. I don't think that was in character knowledge. I think that was out of character knowledge.
[00:33:56] Speaker C: Okay.
[00:33:57] Speaker A: I think they learned that above ground while we were down here.
[00:34:02] Speaker C: I mean, that would be a good way out.
[00:34:06] Speaker B: Yeah, well, that could be an option, but there are many, many tunnels.
There's a whole just network of tunnels beneath the city.
[00:34:19] Speaker C: Oh, and you know of them?
[00:34:21] Speaker B: I don't know them completely, but I know of them. And.
There is one person who probably knows the map of the tunnels.
[00:34:37] Speaker C: Oh, is it Dallas? Or is it someone else?
[00:34:40] Speaker B: Kind of minds putting on a hat.
[00:34:44] Speaker A: Oh, our friend's whiskey.
[00:34:49] Speaker C: Whiskey.
Whiskey. Jack, do you want to come collect the debt?
[00:34:55] Speaker A: You have to pour out a drink for them.
[00:34:59] Speaker C: We do have a lot of alcohol. Wait.
[00:35:04] Speaker A: Here.
[00:35:04] Speaker C: He would go. Crap. It's just gonna like humor this because what the else are we gonna do?
And pour a couple shot glasses down and pour some whiskey out.
This is for you, I think. Does this work like that?
Looking at Vittoria doesn't work like that.
[00:35:25] Speaker B: And from behind, everyone you hear.
Now don't go saying my name too loud, you know, never know whose ears might be around.
[00:35:36] Speaker C: Hey, it works like that.
[00:35:39] Speaker B: It works how I want it to work.
[00:35:42] Speaker C: Okay. Well, hello. We.
You have an old friend of yours, I guess.
[00:35:52] Speaker B: Vitoria.
Can't believe you're actually alive.
There's. There's a moment, you know, there. There's a.
The manly embrace, you know, the clap on the back and everything and separates. Whiskey will take the drink from you and down it and say, well, someone was talking about collecting and several of you do still owe me, so.
Yeah.
[00:36:25] Speaker C: Yeah, that's true.
[00:36:26] Speaker B: Let's talk.
[00:36:29] Speaker C: Well, can you get us out of here to one of our safe houses?
I'm sure you know where they are. At this point, I'm not, you know, too fucking much.
[00:36:43] Speaker D: Link is like head in hand in the background. Just like, why are you making more deals? We have a way out.
[00:36:54] Speaker C: Because they're friends.
It's the boys.
[00:36:57] Speaker B: Yeah, I.
I certainly could lead you through the tunnels.
He thinks for a second it was the tunnels are probably your best, but.
[00:37:14] Speaker A: As opposed to waiting for the elevator.
[00:37:19] Speaker B: Yeah, elevator.
Yeah, yeah. Elevator would be your other. Other one.
Just like flying.
[00:37:33] Speaker D: No need to rack up pointless debt here.
[00:37:36] Speaker A: Now.
[00:37:38] Speaker C: This was more of a thought experiment than anything.
[00:37:42] Speaker A: It did. I mean, who would have guessed I was making a joke?
I didn't expect the second surprise man to show up in as many hours, open the door around here without finding a man behind it. It's weird.
[00:38:00] Speaker C: Scary.
Do you at least want to collect on what I owe you? Do I owe you anything? I forget I was in prison.
[00:38:08] Speaker B: You do owe me a couple things.
[00:38:12] Speaker C: Okay.
Anything I Could do right now.
[00:38:15] Speaker B: Well, two secrets.
[00:38:19] Speaker C: Two whole secrets. Okay.
[00:38:21] Speaker B: Yeah. One IOU for getting that information earlier.
And two, I collected one from everybody to help you with that ball.
[00:38:35] Speaker C: That's fair enough. No, no, that's. That's totally fair.
What can I.
Okay, here's one. I. I don't think there's any point keeping it a secret anymore. Have you heard of crews throughout the city helping fund a lot of like, insurrections?
[00:38:58] Speaker B: I may or may not have.
[00:39:00] Speaker C: Yeah, Yeah. I can introduce you to them because, you know, I know who's been funding them.
[00:39:08] Speaker B: Kind of gives you a, you know, go on.
[00:39:12] Speaker C: Yuri's just gonna put out their hand.
So. Yeah, it's.
It was, you know, it was a well kept secret for a long time.
However, there's no point to keeping it anymore.
[00:39:29] Speaker B: Well, this is certainly juicy.
[00:39:36] Speaker C: Yeah. I mean, you probably worked with some of my people. Unknowingly.
There's one in Emerald Grove.
One of them is a lamp lighter, But.
[00:39:53] Speaker E: Yeah.
[00:39:54] Speaker C: Nino, money unfortunately has run a little short because, you know, I've been in prison.
It was in prison, it was like.
[00:40:01] Speaker B: Tend to put a damper on things.
[00:40:03] Speaker C: I was.
So. Yeah, I know. I. What. What other secrets do you want? I don't have a lot. What? I don't have a lot. That's useful.
[00:40:18] Speaker B: Well, at. The way I.
I deal with secrets is as long as it's important to you, it's important to me.
Secrets have the power you give them.
[00:40:34] Speaker C: Yuri's gonna, like, here, I'm just going to. And they're gonna write something down and then just hand it to them. Like, I'm not gonna say this one out loud. It's yours.
[00:40:44] Speaker B: All right, well, take it and look at it and just let me know whatever it says on it.
[00:40:54] Speaker C: I'll DM you and I'll think of something.
[00:40:56] Speaker B: Okay.
And we'll sort of slide it in the pocket of his jacket and say, well, we're all settled up.
[00:41:04] Speaker C: Great.
How are things up? Is it worse right now? Is it better?
[00:41:12] Speaker B: Much the same.
Okay. Your friends are a little busy from what I can tell.
[00:41:20] Speaker C: I mean, busy being alive. That's good.
[00:41:24] Speaker B: Yes, also alive.
[00:41:27] Speaker C: Good, good, good, good.
[00:41:33] Speaker B: Well, I guess if we're not making any more deals, I'll sort of look around at you. Last chance.
Anything you want to make a deal for.
[00:41:52] Speaker A: No secrets. So I'm good.
I do find it interesting that you know Vittorio personally, but when Yori asked you for information on the curse, you didn't know very much.
[00:42:14] Speaker B: Gives. Gives a smile and says, gotta always play the game.
[00:42:21] Speaker A: It's not like it was proprietary information.
Jack.
[00:42:28] Speaker B: Did that.
[00:42:32] Speaker C: Well, just. Yuri's just gonna hand them the rest of this bottle that they found.
This is probably some kind of intention for your troubles. I guess. Since I just summoned you.
[00:42:45] Speaker B: You certainly know how to reach me. If you ever change your mind, I have something to collect. I will be by at some point.
Tell graveling to say hi.
[00:42:59] Speaker A: Why?
[00:42:59] Speaker C: You say it like.
[00:43:03] Speaker B: Oh, you should ask her.
[00:43:07] Speaker C: You're just gonna look at everyone else to them with something.
[00:43:11] Speaker A: Equal shrugs.
[00:43:13] Speaker E: Okay, don't ask me.
Whatever.
[00:43:19] Speaker B: And unless somebody stops him, Whiskey's gonna walk right out that front door.
[00:43:25] Speaker E: Have a good day. Whiskey. Jack.
[00:43:30] Speaker B: Give you a kind of a wave.
And then once he's out of sight, it's like he was never there.
[00:43:40] Speaker C: Gonna look at everyone. I did that. Did you?
I did.
I'm so exhausted.
[00:43:51] Speaker A: It has been a very long and grueling 24 hours.
48.
[00:44:04] Speaker E: So it seems we'll be leaving soon.
[00:44:06] Speaker F: Correct.
[00:44:08] Speaker A: What is the choice to make? Do we fly out and risk two birds being spotted? One of which would be spotted. Could be spotted by someone who might know what he looks like as a bird and wants him dead.
Or defaulted.
[00:44:25] Speaker E: No. Pardon. Pardon my asking, but with the curse, I'm sure your great great grandfather will be able to figure it out. Correct? In order to help you all, I assume. If he started it.
[00:44:38] Speaker A: Who?
[00:44:38] Speaker C: The nose.
[00:44:40] Speaker E: Okay, let me be clear. Should we kill Talus now?
[00:44:44] Speaker C: Oh, we have the notes.
[00:44:45] Speaker A: Dying.
[00:44:46] Speaker E: I don't trust to leave him.
[00:44:48] Speaker C: Let them suffer.
[00:44:51] Speaker E: I don't trust that. Last time we thought he died, he didn't.
I want to make sure he is dead now. And I don't care if he's in the room. I'm just saying this, and I look at him dead in the eyes.
[00:45:04] Speaker A: I don't know that I completely condone cold blooded murder of my mother's lover in front of her.
That feels.
[00:45:16] Speaker C: I just want them to suffer. They are literally dying.
Like literally dying.
[00:45:23] Speaker E: I. I know that.
But last time you want to do.
[00:45:27] Speaker C: A good thing for Talis, you want to make him not suffer.
[00:45:32] Speaker E: Didn't we literally kill him last time though?
[00:45:37] Speaker C: Yeah, but now he's all up belt.
[00:45:40] Speaker E: We don't know if he'll actually die from this. All we have is his word and we can make sure of it.
[00:45:49] Speaker A: Again, sort of cold blooded murder as opposed to self defense.
[00:45:56] Speaker E: Do you know how many people he's killed and how many people he could kill again?
[00:46:00] Speaker A: I know that doesn't still mean it feels good to do.
[00:46:08] Speaker C: Are you going to do it looking directly now? Are you going to kill them?
[00:46:13] Speaker A: I can.
[00:46:14] Speaker E: I think you should probably cover your mom's eyes.
[00:46:18] Speaker C: Why don't we wait until the elevator is done so whatever the they have going on, they could close out and you kill them on the way out.
If you're gonna do it, I'd rather let them suffer. Sorry, Dallas. Not really.
[00:46:37] Speaker E: Sitting here watching and Niall will look at her and be like. Consider a quick and painless death a compliment for helping us during this mission. If you are truly dying, that is a slow and painful one.
[00:46:51] Speaker B: Yep.
Ta holds up the arm that's wrapped in the vines Again.
[00:46:59] Speaker A: I really don't know if this is.
I. I mean I'm not saying that he is innocent of anything, but this is different than fighting him because he is fighting us. This is just murder.
[00:47:16] Speaker E: I murder people a lot. Alouette.
[00:47:19] Speaker A: Maybe you should not do that.
[00:47:23] Speaker E: I have to eat.
Not talus specifically, but if someone threatens my safety, I have to kill them.
[00:47:31] Speaker A: And that's different. That's self defense. This is just murder. He's not trying to kill you actively right now.
[00:47:41] Speaker E: That's not really how it works.
[00:47:43] Speaker A: That is. That is kind of how it works. It's the definition of self defense. If they are trying to kill you, you can defend yourself. Murder for just to murder them is murder.
[00:47:54] Speaker C: I mean, technically Na is correct. This would be just murder.
So if you're fine with that, I'm. I'm going to just like kind of shrug at Lou. Just.
I don't like him.
[00:48:07] Speaker A: I don't like him either. I'm not getting everyone I don't like.
[00:48:13] Speaker B: Makes anyone feel any better. I had already planned to do it myself.
[00:48:22] Speaker A: Well, I'm.
[00:48:22] Speaker E: I'm just making sure it goes through there.
And again, I did say I will help to free your lover from her curse. So die knowing that at least the best that we can do that she'll be okay.
Is that enough kindness for you, Alouette?
[00:48:45] Speaker A: No.
There's a very distinct.
You know, I miss Alistair.
Oh, I don't think Alistair would agree with me, but I just miss him.
[00:49:04] Speaker C: That's fair.
[00:49:07] Speaker A: I'll do it.
[00:49:08] Speaker E: And neither. None of you have to watch or no the wiser.
And I won't even eat him because he doesn't want to be eaten. How about that?
[00:49:16] Speaker C: No, I mean you shouldn't eat them regardless.
[00:49:21] Speaker E: He is infected. You are correct about that.
[00:49:25] Speaker B: Yeah. Well, if you do kill me, you will have to destroy my body.
[00:49:30] Speaker A: I will. I mean is. Is there anything wrong with Just leaving Talos to do what Talis wants to do.
I don't know if you had a timeline in mind. I don't mean to rush you.
[00:49:49] Speaker D: He's already succumbed to the tyrant once. Who knows what would happen if we were to leave him.
[00:49:58] Speaker A: Oh, this one feels very gross.
[00:50:03] Speaker B: He is going to stand up from where he is sitting and move over to Eloquence and sort of put a hand on the beak and say softly, I'm sorry, but this is where our paths will converge.
Before he moves over to a table and you watch as slowly he pulls everything out of his pockets and leaves it there. The remaining alchemy supplies his sword.
There's several rings, including the Talus family signet that he places on the table.
And.
Yeah, or looking at the rest of you and saying, ready to face it whenever.
[00:51:15] Speaker E: Eloquence, you might want to close your eyes.
[00:51:18] Speaker B: Probably don't do it in the house.
Okay.
[00:51:22] Speaker E: I. I will just gesture for Talos to follow me out back. And I assume he does.
And they. I think Niall is going to definitely kill this person, but they'll pull out. I guess I'll probably just have like some pen and paper and just be like. Do you have any last words that you want to tell anyone on the surface to write down?
[00:51:49] Speaker B: No one on the surface.
I think it's better if Juniper never knows.
Better for her.
After everything I did.
[00:52:06] Speaker E: Very well, she'll never know.
And I'm going to, as painlessly as possible kill this man.
[00:52:13] Speaker B: He's got like 10 health. It's not going to take that much.
[00:52:20] Speaker C: Yuri's going to look directly at Leith and kind of motion for Leith to.
[00:52:26] Speaker D: Follow is not making eye contact with Yuri and is looking through the papers that she got from the Adrisu family vault.
[00:52:39] Speaker C: Yuri's gonna go follow Lou then.
Where is Lou going?
[00:52:50] Speaker A: It's somewhere in the house.
[00:52:57] Speaker C: Yuri sighs as they leave the room. Mainly because Leith is being a bad partner.
[00:53:06] Speaker D: Is there not a partner?
[00:53:09] Speaker C: Yeah. And Yuri is upset about that at this point because come the on, Yuri would catch up with Lou wherever and just.
I know the answer is no, but are you okay?
[00:53:25] Speaker A: You are correct.
[00:53:31] Speaker C: It. It should be stated that not wanting to murder someone is not a sign of. Of. It's not a bad thing.
[00:53:42] Speaker A: I know.
[00:53:44] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:53:48] Speaker A: Doesn't matter if it was necessary. I don't think it.
[00:53:58] Speaker C: You're probably right in that sense.
[00:54:03] Speaker A: No.
[00:54:05] Speaker C: Hurting or killing someone like that, killing anyone in cold blood is a choice. And it's something that does not leave you the same as you Were.
[00:54:27] Speaker A: But is this. What is this going to take to.
[00:54:34] Speaker C: Stop the world fermenting?
Probably.
[00:54:40] Speaker A: What will be left of us when we do?
No.
[00:54:50] Speaker C: It's a great question.
[00:54:55] Speaker A: No.
[00:54:58] Speaker C: Maybe what's left will be at least able to see the sun again.
Or I guess, at all. I've never seen the sun.
I didn't. Didn't someone say it's still over dot or something? Is that grave ink?
[00:55:22] Speaker A: Oh, maybe.
Must make a nice place to visit them.
[00:55:31] Speaker C: Probably.
[00:55:33] Speaker B: No.
[00:55:40] Speaker C: I just want to say that I.
I don't know. I know there's a lot of hard decisions still coming up, but you don't need to make them all.
I think definitely you don't. You shouldn't deal with Maeve anymore.
[00:56:08] Speaker A: I don't.
I don't know if we can afford to reject her offer.
[00:56:17] Speaker C: And what happens with you then? 50 whole years.
[00:56:23] Speaker A: I don't age.
I get to go see somewhere new. I guess.
There are worse things. I think it won't be all that different from the first half.
[00:56:43] Speaker C: I guess we'll see.
Do you think we age normally?
[00:56:50] Speaker A: We must.
Grandma is. She looks old.
[00:56:55] Speaker C: Yeah.
I mean, you're right. I'm just.
It must have been like the Circle or whatever. Victoria, listen. Right.
[00:57:05] Speaker A: I don't know.
Maybe because he was the, like, source and so the strongest with him.
[00:57:16] Speaker C: I am now both confused and concerned that I'm also not a bird.
Even more so than usual.
I didn't realize it was that much, like, in motion or. I don't know what I'm saying. It's a lot going on.
[00:57:38] Speaker A: Maybe I can ask Map.
[00:57:44] Speaker C: No, I wouldn't mind going to talk to them, too.
I mean, honestly, maybe I could take your place.
No, there's. There's. There's people that like me a lot less than people like you.
[00:57:58] Speaker A: That is not a excuse to.
I don't know. I still think maybe there's another option.
She was open to other suggestions of payment.
I just haven't thought of it yet.
[00:58:17] Speaker C: Yeah, I mean, to be fair, I don't. You weren't expecting to be talking to them or dealing with. With the lady of Thorns or what have you?
[00:58:30] Speaker A: No. That was a surprise.
[00:58:34] Speaker C: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:58:36] Speaker A: There's been a lot of surprises of late.
[00:58:41] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:58:46] Speaker A: Hopefully Batorio remains a good one and not actually terrible.
We have no one's word but his and my mother's that his stories are true.
[00:59:01] Speaker C: Yeah. We need to be careful.
I don't truly don't trust our families right now.
No, those people.
[00:59:14] Speaker A: I don't Know now, to be fair, he was locked in a vault, and that does give some credence.
But we only have his words that it was for a bad reason and not for. Because he was terrible. You know.
[00:59:32] Speaker C: And just because he doesn't like the people we don't like as well doesn't mean we should trust him immediately.
[00:59:39] Speaker A: Correct.
And even if he was trustworthy at the beginning, 75 years of isolation in a dark place can change a person.
[00:59:54] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Look, I was stuck for how long was I in there? A week? Two weeks. I truly lost count.
Two weeks. It was two whole weeks.
[01:00:06] Speaker A: I think it was pretty close to two.
[01:00:09] Speaker C: God, don't. Don't Stoke raving. The bloodline beat the fuck out of me.
It was. I was very angry, to be fair, so.
[01:00:25] Speaker A: Well, I'm glad you recovered and that you are safe.
And soon we will be back back in the city, which is as safe as down here, so that is not it. Just. The only difference is that this is ELD down here versus whatever nonsense is being cooked up by whomever, the holy blood, the lamplighters, the unbroken, which includes my father, you know, my mother. Your mother.
Well, now I know. I just cry out and skipped it as a piano once.
Yeah, makes sense. I thought it was at the time, but that was just like. Cool piano.
[01:01:18] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:01:18] Speaker C: Yeah.
[01:01:22] Speaker B: Well.
[01:01:26] Speaker C: I just want to say that whatever decisions we have to deal with in the future, we at least have each other.
[01:01:37] Speaker A: Right?
[01:01:40] Speaker C: And then kind of like with the eating smile and not. You also have lace.
Yes. No. Okay. You're smiling, right?
Joke. Good.
Or, you know, feel.
[01:02:00] Speaker A: It. Tomorrow.
[01:02:02] Speaker C: Yeah, tomorrow or next day. You know, I am just.
You know this.
[01:02:10] Speaker A: I do.
[01:02:11] Speaker C: So. It's surprising how much we started talking again after literally. The last time I saw them was when I lost the duel to her.
[01:02:22] Speaker A: Oh, I didn't know you ever fought like that.
[01:02:26] Speaker C: It was the whole thing. It was my fault. Like, obviously it was. You know, my birthday is the same day.
Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was being me.
It's a story that maybe they could probably tell better because they won the duel, so.
And no silver. Silver dagger left a scar. Oh, all that stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[01:03:03] Speaker A: Dangerous tool.
Maybe don't do that again.
[01:03:09] Speaker C: It's the past.
I actually, you know, I confirmed that we were friends again, at least.
[01:03:20] Speaker A: Good, good. I'm glad.
I'm glad. That is good for both of you, I think.
Even if you cannot stop needling one another.
[01:03:33] Speaker C: That's just how we are.
[01:03:35] Speaker A: It does not have to be.
[01:03:38] Speaker C: It's a little funny. Though.
[01:03:42] Speaker A: Well, as long as you are having fun.
[01:03:45] Speaker C: No, they have plenty of ammunition on me, so I just need to make them try to look me in the eyes because they can't.
[01:03:55] Speaker A: I've noticed that problem too. Maybe. Maybe eye contact is just not their thing. You know, Some people don't like it.
[01:04:03] Speaker C: That's fair.
[01:04:03] Speaker A: It is a shame. She has pretty eyes.
[01:04:08] Speaker C: Whatever you say.
Let's try to be comfortable for the next couple days. At least until we see those elevators.
[01:04:21] Speaker A: Yes. You know what they are going to be.
[01:04:27] Speaker C: You know, maybe they.
No, I'm sure we'll figure it out. I. Maybe. Maybe Laith knows.
Or Nile.
Someone knows, not me.
[01:04:41] Speaker A: Seems like it was something kind of important to come down with. Where is it gonna be?
[01:04:48] Speaker C: I was a little distracted.
[01:04:50] Speaker A: Okay, that's fine.
[01:04:54] Speaker E: Yeah.
[01:04:55] Speaker A: Backup plan of birds.
[01:04:58] Speaker C: Also true.
[01:05:01] Speaker B: Yeah.
Well, so it'll probably be about two more days before the elevator is ready and able to come get you any. Anything pressing you want to do in those two days or just study, relax, rest, spend time with Bird Mom.
[01:05:25] Speaker E: I want to find Bird dad when I have some little snacks to bring him as an offering and be like, sir, may I have a word with you?
[01:05:33] Speaker B: Of course. He's sitting at one of the tables that, you know is still kind of there, is reading, whatever.
Reading, like, whatever books he can find in here. And Jester says, please take a seat.
[01:05:46] Speaker E: And Niall will take a seat and look at him and just be like.
I'll be blunt.
I have a little bit of a dietary restriction. As in, I eat people in order to survive.
And from what I can tell, you have been able to biologically alter people in order to be a little bit genetically different.
I have someone looking into this already, but you seem to be a master at changing people.
Is that correct?
[01:06:11] Speaker B: I changed myself and cursed my entire family line, so I guess.
[01:06:16] Speaker A: So.
[01:06:20] Speaker E: Again, I did ask someone to look into this, but do you happen to know any way to.
Essentially, in order for me to be able to eat something, it has to biologically match my DNA, such as people at this point in time for it to be digestible. Is it possible to modify me a little bit into something more monstrous or able to digest stuff, such as the eldest?
I would like to kill less people if possible.
[01:06:49] Speaker B: That is the question.
And I don't want to give you an answer until I can actually study anything. I will have to take a look. I'll have to figure out whatever you are.
No offense, but it's okay.
[01:07:09] Speaker E: It happens.
[01:07:12] Speaker B: So remind me once we're up there and I have a proper, proper setup.
Currently, I have no tools and I have no lab.
[01:07:22] Speaker E: Of course. I just wanted to say so before I completely forgot about happens. Sometimes I get lost in cooking and now there's like a vacant stare of like war flashbacks. It's like. Well, thank you very much for listening and considering this. I truly appreciate it.
[01:07:42] Speaker B: Yes, if I can help you, I will try.
[01:07:47] Speaker E: Thank you.
That's all I want to do. Please don't turn them into a chicken or a potato.
[01:07:54] Speaker B: Yeah. And eventually you are all.
Before you left, you were told essentially where they would build the.
The elevator because they wouldn't let it let you leave without that. So you at least know where it will be coming down.
And it does. And there's an elevator for you all to ride up.
Thing is, I imagine you can do the telepathy and talk with eloquence at some point during those couple of days.
And she will tell you for the time being because she can't stop being a massive bird and there's nowhere really for her to hide in the city.
She will stay down here for the time being.
And once you have the ability to unbird her to return with the elevator, on the elevator and do that.
[01:08:56] Speaker A: She's not interested in going, like, out of the city.
[01:09:01] Speaker B: Well, it's more of she would leave if you told her to.
But currently it's just. If you want to stick her around.
[01:09:13] Speaker A: It's up to her.
[01:09:17] Speaker B: She likes being close.
At least close enough that if you do desperately need her backup bird.
But if you told her to. To. To, you know, get somewhere much safer away from out of the city, she would go.
[01:09:32] Speaker A: Yeah. If she feels confident she's not gonna get eaten or consumed by the elves, because the last thing we need is an Elder, then I guess she can stay in the hole.
But if she doesn't think she can handle the elves, then she's gotta get out of Dodge.
[01:09:54] Speaker B: Yeah, she can handle the eld and especially with the.
The stuff that the. That Talis set up around the house. It should be safe for a while longer.
[01:10:07] Speaker A: Then. I guess it is. Until next time.
Yeah.
[01:10:13] Speaker B: She will make sure that she tells you she. She loves you.
Yeah.
And you all eventually ride that elevator up into the city.
It's still there. Hasn't caught fire or anything. Don't worry.
And it's around this time that I imagine that at least Gray Wing is waiting to greet you.
[01:10:41] Speaker F: I was waiting. Crossing my arms.
[01:10:44] Speaker C: Waiting.
[01:10:45] Speaker F: I count.
I suspect the giant bird. Mom to be here.
I was prepared for that.
Was not Prepared for a disheveled, stinky looking man.
[01:11:05] Speaker A: That's like.
[01:11:06] Speaker F: He's literally. When I talk about like walking gays and the closets. Because I think that's where most gay people belong. I wasn't like. I didn't mean it like that, y'.
[01:11:16] Speaker B: All.
[01:11:17] Speaker F: I didn't mean it like that.
So I. So I think I.
I make a. I make a mouth. I make a mouth. You can tell I'm kind of confused, but on guard.
[01:11:34] Speaker A: Go.
[01:11:36] Speaker F: There's not supposed to be another man.
[01:11:38] Speaker B: What.
[01:11:45] Speaker A: Is a long story. But this is Vittorio. He is our ancestor. He was locked navel for 75 years.
[01:11:57] Speaker C: Yeah, that's it.
[01:11:58] Speaker A: That's the story.
[01:12:02] Speaker B: You will bow.
Give you a nice bow and say yes.
Vittorio Valere. It's a pleasure to meet you.
[01:12:13] Speaker A: This is Kairbwing, she is our friend. This is Alastair, the great mass detective.
[01:12:20] Speaker F: Is this supposed.
[01:12:21] Speaker A: Is this the one? Is this the.
[01:12:23] Speaker F: Your like your like heretic grandfather?
[01:12:27] Speaker C: Yeah, allegedly. Yes. There's news about that actually. But we should get somewhere safe.
[01:12:34] Speaker F: I've got a lot of catch.
Got a lot to unpack up here. We got some work done while you guys are out.
[01:12:42] Speaker A: Nice to see you, Alouette. That's a.
[01:12:45] Speaker F: That wasn't your dress.
[01:12:47] Speaker A: No, that is also a long story.
[01:12:50] Speaker C: Oh my God.
[01:12:51] Speaker A: Okay.
[01:12:54] Speaker F: I bet your story is weirder than my story.
And then I.
[01:13:01] Speaker A: Sorry, go ahead. Is your. Did your brother in law get home okay?
[01:13:06] Speaker F: Yeah.
[01:13:06] Speaker A: Oh good.
[01:13:07] Speaker F: And we got my sister back.
[01:13:09] Speaker A: That's wonderful.
[01:13:10] Speaker C: Great, great.
[01:13:13] Speaker F: And we have the emerald grove, so.
[01:13:16] Speaker C: Oh, wow.
[01:13:17] Speaker A: Yeah.
Law.
[01:13:20] Speaker F: The tldr is we had a really weird 24 hours.
[01:13:31] Speaker C: Oh, wow.
[01:13:32] Speaker E: Yeah.
[01:13:34] Speaker F: But we've made some headways and stuff that I think you'd be interested in.
I look at lathe.
[01:13:40] Speaker A: Also.
[01:13:41] Speaker F: Your sister is a kineticist now.
[01:13:51] Speaker D: I thought she wanted to be a wizard.
[01:13:55] Speaker F: She can do both.
She just has a connection, ironically with air. So unfortunately she is my favorite.
[01:14:06] Speaker A: Now.
[01:14:09] Speaker F: Don'T tell anyone else.
I have like five other people to train.
[01:14:15] Speaker C: A lot happened.
[01:14:17] Speaker F: Yep.
[01:14:21] Speaker C: Then why don't we.
Why don't we get somewhere safe? I would love a shower or something.
[01:14:33] Speaker F: I'm trying to be really nice.
You all really need one.
[01:14:39] Speaker C: Yeah, we know.
[01:14:39] Speaker F: It's a very strange smell.
[01:14:45] Speaker A: Fungus.
[01:14:48] Speaker F: You see Grave Wing open her mask just a little bit just to.
So water can come out of it because it's making her eye really tear up.
And then she pushes it back on because it's like. It's like suction cupped. Like goggles, like swimming goggles. So she pushes it back in and just goes, all right, let's go.
[01:15:10] Speaker B: Yeah. Head back towards the Wollstonecraft manor for showers and food and to figure out whatever's going to be coming next. And we'll figure that out next time.
[01:15:24] Speaker D: But we level up, right?
[01:15:25] Speaker B: Yes, you all level up to eat.
[01:15:27] Speaker C: Let's go. Oh.
