Input: -- and try to move the dirt. Okay. Starting to wiggle a little more. So close! You look out there, one of the guards patrolling nearby-- Fuck. -- doesn't notice you. Dig, dig, dig, dig, dig. Dig, dig, dig, dig, dig. Is it always like this? Yeah. Pretty much. You come out the other side and you're now inside the courtyard. I did it! All right. Okay. Well, you're cute and noticeable, so move fast. Okay. I'm going to skitter to where I think the entrance of the building is. Okay. Yeah. You can definitively see an entryway that leads into the fortress. It is out in the open, across the courtyard. There are stacks of supplies and things along the way that you can dart to as you want go. Great. Great. I will need you to make a stealth check-- as a rotund, not minuscule creature. I'm not there, but is there sky above? Garbage rolls. For our quokka. Garbage. Can you give yourself advantage? I can give myself-- I don't know. Eight. Oh god! Eight. Okay, cool. So-- Okay, cool. You need stop rolling like dog shit. I know! I know! Just making sure I said it. First, you wait for the guard to pass, who hasn't noticed you yet. You skitter across a good 15 foot range and get behind almost like a hay bale, but it's not hay. It's some other dried grass that was brought from or farmed somewhere nearby in the Hellcatch. You get there and back up behind it, glance over. The next thing you can see, two barrels, open, uncertain if there's anything within them, but they're just set out in the open, either to collect water or they contain something for quick access for the people within the courtyard. You rush over to it. Right as you're about to get to the shade behind them, you feel a hand grab you from the torso and lift you up and a voice go, "Oh goodness! "What's this?" Oh goodness! What's this? Throw a baby at him! You feel your world whip around, up into the blue sky, and you see the dark exterior rim of a shaded face, framed by the sky above. As your eyes focus a bit, you can see a tough looking woman warrior, shoulders exposed with scars, muscular, has this wide, bright white, toothy grin and eyes that are green, like jade. Her skin is very, very sun tanned and her hair is almost a bleached white that is in a back braid to protect it that goes past the shoulders. She's wearing some leather armor on the shoulders and you can see a gold chain around the neck that carries a bird skull with a golden mask over the front of it. Cool. She picks you up and goes, "Oh my goodness! "You're so cute! "Who are you?" I start shivering. Oh! (whimpers) Oh my! I don't even know what you are, but you're adorable! Oh my god! Mick Hunt! Mick Hunt! My cunt? My cunt? Micah? I heard "my cunt." Yeah. Yep. Paging Mike Hunt. Is Mike Hunt here? All NPCs are now named David from here on out. Forever. We can't have nice things! We cannot. Can

Input:
a little more hushed. I'm not sure where they're based, but there've been a number of attacks at and under Kreviris that shows that there's been ramping up combat around the swells of Imperium activity. So I imagine their base operations isn't too far from the capital city itself.
You don't know exactly where?
No, but I've had a longtime friend of mine that comes through on occasion to do some trading. It's a glassmith who has an affiliation with the Volition.
Oh!
Occasionally looks for a place to hide when they're passing through and things get hairy. Her name is Zesh.
Zesh.
A reformed Shrike once under the Imperium.
A reformed what?
Shrike.
It's a type of Reiloran.
She might be able to help you if you can find her.
You said, you're expecting traders to come through. Would she be with them?
I mean, it's certainly possible. We have to look in if they make themselves known, hopefully in the next day or two.
Oh. They come by in the dead of night to visit you, or--?
Usually not in the dead of night, but unless they're close enough where it's safer for them to come and roost up for the evening. But it's been a few days overdue.
Usually they come through, pop by for a few hours and keep on going?
There's been a lot of supply drops from running to and from the capital to where the beam is.
Right.
They built an encampment or something there.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
They'd be heading back to the capital?
Or their headquarters?
They go either direction. The caravan was supposed to be coming from Crevaris.
Got it.
So I imagine it'd be making its way out to that base.
Got it.
Did you know about the sky? How it's like a magical weave?
(laughs)
Don't think I follow.
Oh.
Well, yeah, the weave. Is it still there?
I think it is.
You mean the cloudy wall at the distance?
The Divine Gate?
The magical weave that was around it?
Oh, you mean the lattice work.
Yeah.
The lattice work, yeah.
It's still there?
Is it visible from here?
I don't think when we look up, we see it, though.
You haven't really focused too hard on it, but you can still see the network of leylines across Exandria in the far distance if you focus hard enough. You haven't taken a moment to look for it, it's that moment of going, Huh, I don't think we've seen it yet.
Okay.
Might not be here.
The Divine Gate and the lattice work is metaphysical, right? That's not...
No, we can see it. We saw it.
Maybe it's over that way.
From the telescope we saw it.
Maybe it's over that one, just the city.
So looking into space?
Yeah.
It was covering the moon.
The magical fey lens allowed us to see it, but not with the naked eye.
No.
Look up at the sky and see it.
I could use this monocle.
Yeah, the monocle!
Yeah, it was with that green lens that we got from Nana Morri.
I'm not going to waste it on that.
Also, just as a reminder, watching.

Input: take us underneath? If there's something to get down there. I don't know what's down there. I'm going to see what's below us. Take a deep breath, and I'm going to-- uh-- You grind through the ground and vanish below. While you're currently looking, Liliana is still gliding about a foot off the ground, her hair drifting. You can feel, almost taste the energy that sparks in the air around her. She's still just locked in on you, her face still sad. You can see the streaks of, not sure if they're tears of sadness or anger that have since dried and smeared what dirt was along her face as she looks towards you for guidance before she looks away. "I don't know what's going on, Tim. I don't know what to do." Dorian: I take her hand. I don't either. Well, y'all can't stay here. Going to have to-- We can't stay here. Are you staying? If I go, they'll know. What's more useful? If I leave, they'll-- I mean, the rest of them already have been tough enough to get them to trust me. Am I more useful here to what you're doing, or am I more useful leaving it behind? I don't-- I mean, we'd sure love to know what's in your head. Uh, watching. We don't know enough. You said-- You said you're the vessel? As far as I understand, in order to reawaken and get to this god eater, and get to this god eater, this Predathos, there are boundaries, shells, things that imprison it within itself, set up by the gods. I don't know the specifics. Maybe you know better, as she gestures over to Evoroa, who is still processing and clutching with all four of her arms towards her chest right now, taking in in shock all that's transpired. What I do know is that the Ruidusborn We're part of pushing through that. We're supposed to be what can break the final boundary. We have something within us, something that the gods can't stop, and only we can truly reach him. From what he said, in order to get it beyond and back into our realm, it needs a vessel, something to carry it past that threshold. Then you can't stay. I'm not the only possible vessel here. I'm afraid of what'll happen if I'm not here to try and do what I've been doing. Which is what? Control it? Try to control Ludinus? At least-- At least slow and focus what's happening. If you're used as a vessel, no guarantee you'll be in control of yourself. If you're not the vessel, what are you going to do against a god eater? With us, we're armed with information. I ask you this in earnest. What is it you fear about this god eater? Let's remove Ludinus from the equation. Let's absolve ourselves of that. What-- What are you afraid of? Unknown consequences. You cannot guarantee me or anyone. You do not know what will happen if that thing is unleashed. I have had quite a few communions with him. Huh? You've had quite a few? I know. I know you've been resistant, and rightly so. I've told you to, but I have, and many of us, especially since coming here, we've-- We can feel and we can-- I don't think it wants us. I don't think it cares. Ma'am, Ms. Temult, I cannot take your word for it. I understand. What do

- The DM character admitted to having many communions with the entity, though the group remained resistant and fearful of the unknown consequences of unleashing the god eater.
- Finally, the DM character acknowledged the group's distrust, and the conversation concluded with the party still grappling with the fear of what might happen if the entity was released.


Input: but you step on the foot and you feel it give just slightly. uh where's Gideon? She's in the back. Yeah, tell her to come up to the front. Gideon, we're going to need you over here. Turn down the train, pass it down the line. Pass it down the line! Uh thank you. Nadia. While they're doing this, you hear the phrase, you're listening out there and you and... you're the only one, actually, you hear this (low hum), this very, very, very subtle hum.

Yeah, or what if we're all rising up and we don't even know it. Oh, shit! Our impending doom is brought to you by Dwarven Forge. Oh my god. What?! Dwarven Forge sponsored the Mighty Nein's death. How does this work? I'm so not okay. So Sarah, you are up there at the moment. I don't understand. Maybe one of us is a representative? Oh no, it means this is all coming down. Maybe. Is this The Goonies? Are we the Goonies? We are going to be Goonie jam. Clara, you play piano. Sarah, Sarah, do the truffle shuffle. Booty trapped. What is this? Ow, sorry, microphone. Oh no. This is so unhappy. This is so unhappy. Ow, shit. Really? Really? You're just doing this over and over and over again. Sorry, Chris. Sorry about that. Sorry, guys. You just deafened someone at home. All right. So Sarah, you just barely see down into the next element of the chamber, so, yeah, heading out was the right side. So wait, are these connected? Yeah. It's not on a diagonal. It's one on top of the other. We can see straight down the shaft, right? Correct, so, the hum is slowly increasing. I cast Resistance. Everyone roll initiative, please. This is part of this now. Oh god. Woo! Good shit, Game Master. Good shit! That's better. Fuck you! I had a feeling. Ooh hoo. Is that Guns N' Roses? That this fight's gonna be a good fight. 25 to 20. 20. Wow! 20 twins! Dorian and Tim. Sentinel babes. 20 to 15. 20 to 15, no one. 15 to ten. 13. 15 to ten, that's it? 15 to ten, anybody? Oh, wow. Holy shit. Wait, what, no one? All right, ten to five. Eight. Seven. Six.

Get out of the way if you can! Oh it's so close, isn't it? It's close. He's doing the. The Willmaster is starting to slip. The Willmaster is staggering a little bit on their feet. Amazing. Clear the room, Chet! Yeah, that's my-- Yeah, I'll slide to the side here. Thank you! Just one half step. Okay. Don't-- I'll-- I'll step over the old man. Non-lethal, non-lethal. Oh, I know. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry! Oh, sorry. (laughter) Clara. I don't know if there's such a thing as non-lethal damage on an old man. How many feet is it directly at what I am attempting to assume? 15 feet to get to-- Only 15, damn. I'm going to take 10 feet back, and I'm going to run straight at the fucker for 25 feet. Okay. This should be fun. You full on. I'm-- do the rear up in the charge. I've got the hammer like a battering ram. I'm going for what I hope the jaw is. I'm shoving it right in that direction. On the button. Okay. Reckless, also, so I assume this is disadvantage? Huh? Because I can't actually see the fuck? I'm making a very educated guess. Well, is this against the Shrike or is this on the Willmaster? The Willmaster. The Willmaster is not invisible. Oh! The two Shrikes. Sorry, both-- The two Shrikes are invisible. Oh, well, that's fine, then. Just to you, right? Correct. Yeah, just to him. So yeah, in that case, yeah, reckless, fuck it. Sure, go for it. This is non-lethal? No, yeah, no, I'm using the butt of the-- I'm using the glass to try and knock, you know, knock right in the head. Okay. 24 to hit. That hits, roll damage. That is, I don't know why I have to still look this up. Oh, I actually, I think I get a special thing from that. Hold on. Sorry. I turn purple and green. (laughter) I have Galactic Invader. (laughter) I think I get an extra d6. Oh, for the space run, yeah. When I do the 25. Sure. I'm so sorry, I'm looking this up again. I'll just do this. I'll start with the damage. Fuck that, I don't like that roll. That's 10, 22 points of damage. How do you want to do this? Yeah! Yay. I am going to run like I'm about to knock down a fucking door and I'm going to scooch up right below you and go for the fucking glass jaw. Full on like (shattering echoes). Yes!

Input:
really cool, I'm going to jump off the wall with my handaxe in my hand and try to come down onto the back of the one right there.
Okay, so you're going to run across the wall?
Hardcore parkour!
That is a 17 to hit! Nine points of damage!
Nine points of slashing damage against this, nice.
Fighting's more epic when you're flying through the air!
As you carve down with the axe and it cuts through, it yelps again. You guys are cutting it up pretty bad. It's hurting. It's not on death's door or anything, but it's hurting. Its fur is starting to get matted with its own blood with each blow. That ends Dorian's turn-- or, anything else you want to do with your turn?
Can I back up? Is it going to get an attack of opportunity?
Only one way to find out.
That's a yes.
Oh no! Well, I'm going to move around him. I'm going to move to his tail. To the pillar, yeah.
Okay, you're right up against the pillar, we'll say. That ends your turn, Dorian. Molly, you're up.
I'm going to take a slashing attack at the guy right in front of me.
Okay.
That's-- oh, goddamn it-- that's 12 to hit?
12 does not hit, unfortunately. It ducks out of the way.
I'm going to hit it again. Oh my god, it's a natural fucking one.
You're trying to swing at it, but unfortunately, for some reason, the howl of its presence and it moving so quickly in front of you throws you off and your blades are not going well.
I'm going to try and circle around a little bit to space everybody out a bit.
That ends your turn, Molly. It's now the wolf's turn. Let's see if they get their breath back. Nope and nope, neither of them do!
Huge!
They are both going to make a single bite attack. One of them is going to be, let's see, against you, Kaelen. You did the most amount of damage to it, so it's going to make a bite attack against you.
No!
That is going to be-- and it has advantage, since you used your reckless. That's going to be--
It still has disadvantage from the-- for its attack, though.
Right, so it would have been the first strike. That would be a total of 14. What's your armor class?
14.
Aw, just hits! That would be 12 points of piercing damage as it bites down on you with its giant jaws. I need you to make a strength saving throw, which you do not have advantage, currently, because you're not raging.
You're still strong.
Super buff, and not just in the game.
24.
Success, it does not knock you prone. It bites and tries to throw you onto the ground, but you push off of its jaws and use the back of the wall to steel yourself and kick its mouth off of you and still stand there, resolute, with your blade in hand. The other one is going to attempt to break free. It does not like being held in place by there. What does it have to roll to break free?
15.
15? What kind of check?
Oh, strength.
Strength? 13 plus four, that's 17, yeah. It manages to break free of

Input: to do this? Wow, wow! I did not think that was going to happen. Me neither. Sorry, Game Master. No, it's cool. It's cool. I want to say: Get off my spider, you other spider! Nope. I don't have anything. That's the line. If I could aim for the-- I got nothing. For this little penis thing that it shot out. Okay. As its stinger's trying to find the body of the spider that it has held there. You fire into it and strike the belly and you watch as, for some reason, the portion that you hit causes its exoskeleton, its exterior, to unfold, and its internal organs just spill out of it. It dizzies for a second and then loses hold of Sylvia and then falls on the back and its legs slowly curl into its body. Yeah! Telltale, behbeh! Now we can use that as your figure. Yay! Wow. You have a bonus action. I guess I'll fire again at the other one next to Sylvia. Go for it. That is a 25 to hit. That hits. I get another eight points of damage against that guy. All right. That one sinks into it. Hurts it, but it chitters. It's still standing. Okay. Then I'll tuck back around towards Tim. Around this way? Yeah, yeah, around that way. Okay, like there or moving all the way around? Just where you got me is good. Okay. Fine, that finishes your go, Gideon. Fucking rogues. Nadia, you're up. One round with the mama! Yeah, right? How many spiders are in the room right now? Right now, at a quick glance, you see about eight. All right. About eight spiders. Yep. Okay. I'm going to-- I suppose I'm going to be basic on this, then. Can I do Sacred Flame and Thaumaturgy in the same? No, I can't. No, they're both actions. They're both actions. I don't know why my brain is being dumb. I'm in combat with one. Okay, I will-- yeah, I don't know what's wrong with me. I will cast Bless on Sylvia and on Tim and on Dorian. All righty. So Sylvia is now a Blessed spider. Tim is a Blessed Tim and-- Dorian. Dorian, Blessed Dorian. Then I guess I'm going to-- I'm not going to disengage with the spider I'm currently with, but I'm going to put my back against the wall and just-- Okay, back up towards the best you can. You got it. Just be ready for whatever. Cool, that finishes Nadia' go. Sarah, you're up. I will turn and summon the falchion and I will take a strike against each one of the spiders next to me. One each, just a whoosh whoosh. Go for it. One to your right. That is 19 to hit. That hits, go ahead and roll damage. Eight, six. Nine points of slashing damage. Arcs through it. It survives, but it's looking pretty wounded. Yeah, maybe I'll put the second one on the one that just barely survived. Can I change that? As the blade goes through, you notice that it still survives and just change your direction and slash it a second time. 14. 14 to hit. Oh, did that hit? Uh-huh, that has hit, yeah. Beautiful. Great.

Yeah. Would you have wanted to be closer? I would like to be within 30 feet of her, if that's cool and chill. Sweet. We can say that you started over here. Okay, cool. That's fine. You guys are going to be clustered up. That's not bad for me. Amazing. nervous noise. I would like to cast Haste on Opal. On Opal? On Opal? Wait, what? Oh, a willing creature. On myself. (laughter) I was like-- What are you doing? I don't know why I said that. Let me be so clear-- Don't give her Haste! I'm newly a paladin. Hey, look me in the eye.

I had a whole plan here, but-- No, it's okay. You know? You went before stuff happened. (laughs) Mm-hmm. Is there-- That's what you get for rolling, honestly, far too high. Yes. Far too high. (laugh) I need to fix something. Oh, actually-- Ooh, okay, actually, this is what I would love to do. Could I actually move within 10 feet of her? Is that an option? Yeah, you get in close and you can-- Or is that my move action? I'll have you make an acrobatics or athletics check, your call, to come up on to, to scramble up the platform to get within 10 feet. Great. Totally good and easy to do. Okay, cool. So I'll make an athletics check. Oh my god, my acrobatics is ass now. It was so good. Aw. It's okay, it could be athletics. But she's a bunny. Oh my god, I rolled another 19. What the heck? Yeah, baby-- Let's go! Let's go! Yeah. Honestly, this is vindication-- Yeah! -- for last time. Oh my god! I feel vindicated. Fair.

We want you to die, but-- Game Master: At which point, while he's there, he tumbles to the ground, the successful Command causing him to grovel. He swims to the base of the chamber, right there. Elias: You are super cool. Game Master: And it is currently prone. Elias: Cool. Derek: Okay. So does that mean melee attacks on it have advantage? Game Master: Advantage, yes. That's going to go ahead and end his turn since it's all he can do. Borlan: Did the attacking Cedric break the charm on her, because she took physical damage? Game Master: Ah, yes, go ahead and make another save. Borlan: But wouldn't it break it already? Game Master: Doesn't break it. She gets to save. Sylvia: She gets a save because of it. Borlan: Okay. Rowan: Come on. Big money. Derek: You get a wisdom save with advantage, right? Rowan: Say again? Sylvia: Wisdom advantage, yeah. Rowan: Goddamn it. Game Master: No? Rowan: 12. Game Master: 12, no. You're still there staring forward towards it. Rowan: How fun. Game Master: That ends Vokodo's turn, currently prone on the ground, Commanded by a level one spell. Derek: (laughs) Game Master: Ending that go, Cedric, it's your turn, and you spend your turn dashing as close as you can, right there, staring once more into the dead lights of Vokodo, as Kaelen put it. Absorbed by what's in front of you, eyes wide, hypnotized. Rowan: Try again, though. Game Master: At the end of your turn, you can make another series of saves. Derek, Rowan, and Kaelen: Come on. Kaelen: With advantage. Rowan: Gosh dang it! Derek: Come on, here we go. This is it. Kaelen: This is the one. Rowan: No, it's not! It's a five. Kaelen: What? Elias: (laughs) Rowan: Ugh, that was advantage! Game Master: All right, that brings us to Nadia, with Arthur on deck. Elias: Oh, I got to come up with something. Rowan: I'm rolling bad. Borlan: Okay. Borlan: I'm going to have my duplicate swim towards him. Game Master: Okay. Borlan: How close can she get? Game Master: She can, because she's not altered by the speed of the water, she can get almost 10 feet away. Sylvia: (as Nadia) Diplomatic immunity. Game Master: (counting) Yeah, so 30 feet. It's still five feet away. Derek: Where's Cedric? Borlan: I'm scared of casting any spells. I'm afraid it's going to-- Sylvia: Right? Borlan: I'm going watching

Input: McDonald's makes me sick. Have you had American hamburgers? No. American McDonald's makes Meilyne sick. McDonald's hamburgers are out of time. I just get the nugs. Uh, nugs are like universally just the same everywhere. When they're freshly fried, oh my god. Yeah, yeah. Nugs are great. The fries are great. I think McDonald's fries are the best, out of like the major chains. But if they're like soggy. Actually they're good when they're soggy and cold and they've kind of been like sweating a bit. What is this? What is this? Come on, you're joking. (Meilyne laughing) What is this? Google food reviewer. (Connor laughs) This is the local expert when you go on Google apparently. How to lose your credibility in like five minutes. But also, the Google review thing, it doesn't really mean much. It just means I contribute a lot. How did that start? I'm so curious about how you just- 'Cause you're literally the only person I know who does this. I think it was an obsession 'cause like, there would be new restaurants that pop up and then I'd be the first one, out of everyone in the neighborhood to- That is true Tokyo like switches out restaurants like crazy. Yeah, yeah. It is crazy how fast restaurants pop up and go. Yeah. And it was really cool whenever I log into my Google maps account and be like, "wow! This got 1.2 million views on your photo." I'm like, "Wow!" Yeah. (men groaning) How it feels to be a YouTuber. (all laughing) No, no. Nobody comments. They just look at it which I like, like "Oh yay, they saw it." It's just a YouTube video with the comments turned off. I went to a KFC one time and uploaded a picture of my friend eating a KFC. And for some reason Google made it the front picture. (all laughing) I'm sorry to hear that. It was like you click on this KFC. It's a pretty popular KFC. And it was just him, sitting there eating a KFC, not a flattering photo. Why did you upload that? Because I wanted to see how it works. That's hilarious. I wanted to see how it worked. And I found out afterwards, you can't take down Google photos. No, you can't. And he was furious at me. He was like, "Why did you put it up?" You can take down Google photos. Really? Yeah, I can. It wouldn't let me take it down. Maybe it's the privilege only. (all laughing) You gotta be a google reviewer. Are you in the top 5%? Every week I go on Google maps and it's like, "Your picture is popular." And I'm like, "What the fuck it's my name?" (all laughing) But yeah, sorry to say. So you start reviewing things? Yeah, yeah. When did you get addicted? Was it like immediately or like? Like after two months, I started eating at more places. So do you like go out on purpose to look for new places or do you kind of just like wait till a new place pops up? Well, I get tired of eating the same food a lot. Yeah. So when my husband asks me, "Where do you wanna eat?" I'll be like, "Can we go somewhere new?"

Input: Yeah. I think she's pissed at you. Okay, uh, I'm going to send a message to the turle. What are the points? Okay, the points are easy pickings. I'm going to say, lots of ships unguarded. Behind the upside-down waterfall. Uh, thank you. East side of the island. East side of the island, upside-down waterfall. Time is limited. Time is limited, 'cause these things are moving out! We're taking them tomorrow. Okay, well... Taking them tomorrow afternoon. Tomorrow morning. Tomorrow morning. Okay. Your accent sounds like a British actor trying to do an American accent. It's really cool. Yeah, yeah. I don't know what you mean. Uh, watching. Hamburger. Hamburger. I'm an American fighter pilot. Uh, kind of sounds like us. Okay, okay. Going to cast Sending. You got this. There's lots of ships, unguarded, on the east side, behind the upside-down waterfall. But move fast, 'cause these things are flying off the shelves tomorrow! Wow. The response comes. And why would you tell me this after destroying your ship and you left me an slimy slug. I chased for days for vengeance. That's the end of his response. Wow. Do we have another message? You're right. They can still hold a grudge. Oh, wait. Getting transformed. Not if I want to do Heroes' Feast tonight. Oh. I got nothing. That's all right. You've got to leave them wanting more. Yeah, it's like it's a-- Maybe he's going to be curious. Don't call him back after the first date. The tone, while the voice sounds guttural, he doesn't sound like he's shut you down. He's just being careful. Yeah, understandably. While he's not an ancient dragon in intelligence per se, he's lived long enough and dealt with enough of different dubious minds and deals and such that you get the sense that he's at least being careful. Smart enough not to just walk into a trap because someone told him to. Right. I mean, worst comes to worst, we could totally fight D-Turts and Vokodo. We're strong enough to do that. At the same time? I don't... Are you joking right now? Yes. Your expression never changes, not even a little. No, I've been told I have a very dry sense of humor. Delivery is quite plain. Just one-liners. Yeah, yeah. Also, if I may, with the evolution of this dragon's name, I would recommend we call him Dieter. Dieter? Dieter. Dieter. D-turd? Deter. Dieter. No, Dieter. Dieter. What does Dieter mean in Zemnian? It's just a name. Oh, well, great. It means dragon turtle. Ah, convenient. I do like D-Turts, though. That's fun, too. That feels like he's a cool guy. He's a cool turts. Bit informal. I would not know. Let's go party at D-Turts'. So, we've put the invitation out. Now what do we do? We don't have one more Sending, do we?

That's just really funny. Lyra Clay, at your service. Glad it seems more of you have made it. Ooh, this is a big mess. Looks over at the creature now suspended in the shards of glass, like, reddish dark glass, spire piercing out of the ground and holding it aloft just bleeding slowly onto the. Oh, well, that is good news. That is great news. Did you do this? Group effort. Yes. But he did the glass part. That's impressive, truly. What is it? It appears to be some kind of gorgon. I have my theories, but I have a few friends I need to ask questions of. They're back in the cave, if you'd come with me. Are you're sure they're in the cave? What year is it? Um. 826? How far away is that from our year? That's 10 years ago. 10 years ago. Woof! They might not be in the cave. A bit of time has passed since then. 200 years. Make a deception check. Uh! Nadia. Don't, don't. 10, 10ish. See, it's not as bad now, isn't it? Because you thought-- She made you feel better! Thank you. You're welcome. Let's-- okay. I'll hold, and let's go to the cave. There are a few more out here. You don't want to check the rest? Do you need to see if any of your compatriots are amongst them? We check the rest. All right, and as you guys begin to look through, you can see Eremis begins to go to a few faces be like, Don't know them. Don't know them, don't know them. Oh, goodness me, and then recognizes somebody and goes up and grabs someone's face goes, This is Darrah. You see this really older human woman maybe in her 70s or so. Adorned similarly to Eremis and also finds what looks to be another large dragonborn figure that is wearing a heavy piece of armor and is currently with the shield in the front trying to pull back. He goes, Ah, this is Mecatoth. Megatoth! Are they also of the Stone? They are, yes. I don't suppose what you've helped us with you could help them with as well? I can once I sleep.

I wonder if the new proprietor knows there is a dead person in the basement. It's not a dead person. It's a skeleton. It seems old. I mean I suppose it's a dead person. That is exactly what it is. I guess so. Was it a dead human or a dead tiefling or a dead-- It seemed human-ish. Well there were no horns, and when you're a skeleton your ears are rotted away so I do not know. It could've been an elf. It could've been. Are there any people, I don't know, juggling and shit? Or any shows going on? Not in the tavern currently. It seems most everyone outside is walking in one direction, though. A lot of the folks that are starting to gather are all heading past the entranceway and heading in a leftward path from looking out from the tavern. Should we join them? Yeah, I want to see. I definitely want to see this. You can carry booze in the streets here, right? It's like Vegas? Open carry? Wait! No, not open carry. Open container. There you go.

(laughs) Whoa, I thought you were just throwing me a spider web, but there's dick gems on this spider web. Yeah! Yeah! Is there one-- What about the one that I ran over that I felt? Oh my god. Yes, there are some under your feet right here. Okay. I love these dick gems! It's like 10 feet to your left. Can you see? Okay. Since I can't see my girl. Yeah, right there. Is she way out of melee from-- I can't see the guys, can't see anything but these-- Your familiar can't attack. -- fucking spiders. Cool, cool, cool. Tight, tight, tight. What I would like to do-- Mm-hmm. -- is to begin using my movement to run and scoop those up and continue in the direction. I just choked on my water. I believe there are more right next to, underneath Dariax at the foot of the-- I'm okay. I'm okay. So there's the ones next to me and then there's also the ones underneath Dariax at the foot of the wall? Yup, start here. Uh-huh. Because it is an interaction. Right, okay.

So, let's go one at a time and we'll see how it goes. Okay, cool. You move 10 feet to your left and scoop up this array of gems. Mm-hmm. I guess it's it's vaguely dick-like, if you're a child. (laughs) You scoop them up and-- I've been hanging around with Opal for awhile. I'm picking things up from my girl. She tends to rub off on ya. Hey! Ey! It's only like seven good, though, so you don't like it. (laughs) You don't like it that much. Grin and bear it. (laughs) You scoop up the gems. Okay. You feel a memory trigger. It's only about a week ago. You're laying low in a little-- Village feels general, even for here. Yeah. Village feels generous for here. It is a couple thatched roof, daub and wattle homes at the edge of a bog. It's a little stinky. It's a little like that weird mixture of cold and humid-- Ugh. -- at the same time. Woof. You're like, what is the industry? Why are people here when you can be anywhere else in the world? (laughs) But it's quiet, and it's safe, and some of the individuals that you've met look like aging adventurers is the generous word you give to someone who looks like they have killed a lot of people in the past and might be laying low for another reason. Mm. But they don't ask any questions when you come. They point you to an open home with a little nod of understanding that we didn't see you, you didn't see us. If you need anything, no you don't.

Input: I think she-- I think she doesn't support him, I do believe that now. Mostly. I felt that hold, though, that Predathos has, I felt that welcoming warmth that she spoke of. And she's been there so long. Yeah, she clearly has her criticisms of Ludinus, although that sounded pretty tangled, too, her history with him. But she definitely seems like a believer in Predathos. I think it's more than that, I think-- I think he's part of us. We're his children, right? Yeah, that bit she said at the very end, that this is what you were designed for. That hit you, too, didn't it? Yes. It made me think of Sylvia, and it also, I feel like I owe you an apology. I feel like I understood your mom on a deeper level in that moment. I think it's just reminiscent of something that sounds like we all struggle with, not being able to supersede that feeling of being designed, controlled, manipulated. Uh, thank you. But it also just made my heart break for her. Feels like we've been very privileged to go on a journey guided by Sylvia to learn more, that we're more than just what our creators intended for us. And I don't think she's had that. Yeah. Made me sad and grateful at the same time. Mm. Yeah. It made me angry. I don't like being angry. You're too fucking good for her. She doesn't deserve this fucking world. I hope she's right. Really do. I hope her ends are fucking great because these means are just not forgivable. Lyra. Where's Otohan's shit? Here. Lay it out. Lay it out. I walk over and I pick up the sword, one of them, I jam it in the soil. That is the blade that killed my father and my husband. She is not right. I'm going to walk away from this group for a little bit. Tim? Yeah? I love you. I love you, too. I love all of you. Just perhaps we should say it more. Yeah. Sylvia was so unique. I mean, every time someone saw him, they reacted like they'd never seen such a thing before. But your mom left us with such an interesting tidbit of info, that Ludinus was on Exandria overseeing the pieces of machinery that were being brought up. Yeah. Aw, fuck, what's her name? Evoroa. Evoroa, sorry. Oh shit, I forgot she was here. Yeah, Evoroa just like, "Eee." Welcome. It happens a lot, actually. Sorry. It's fine. Lyra's going to fuck you, I have a feeling later. Is this the first-- Above table, I know that there are the floaty beings, but one of the Bormodos? Yeah, the first-- We've never seen a Bormodo on Exandria? Uh-uh. No. Yeah. Yeah, this would be a big deal. You can see her, while you guys have been having this conversation, she's a little bit behind you and is just taking it all in. Oh shit, right, fuck. Aw, shit. Welcome to Exandria. Sorry. Welcome to the Blue Dream. Promise. The Blue Promise. Promise? Yeah. It's not blue

Input: the room? Yeah, that's true. A little bit. There's a lot of mist in this little chamber. It gives it the same space. It's not like a huge push. As you rush past, it does get an attack of opportunity on you. Okay. That's going to be a 20 to hit. Hits. You take 12 points of bludgeoning damage. Okay, so I revert into a human in midair, so you tell me what happens. So as you rush past, the eagle whooshing, you only fall about 20 feet onto the stairs. Go ahead and make an acrobatics check. So just the hit took four off of Sylvia. Make an acrobatics check? Mm-hm. 14. 14? Yeah-- You take 11 points of bludgeoning damage, landing on the stairs on your back crunches. Ow, ow. Shit. Tailbone and everything. There you are. Okay. All right. That brings us-- Do I still have an action? Because I didn't do anything. Yeah, you still have your action. I will use, where's the door? The door's right there. You can barely even see past the spire. You don't even know there's a door there. You just fell on like groans. Then I will use my action for movement, so half of it's just to get to standing and then feel my way down through it, so I bump into-- Oh, hello, Sarah. You see the open door and you can see the shape of Beauregard beyond it, about ten feet beyond the door. That's it. That finishes your go, Sylvia. Gideon and Nadia. I'm going to head just inside the door and then hold my action to fire a bolt at that thing the second it shows up again. You stay inside the chamber? Can I get five feet into the chamber and just behind the door and look up or--? You can get five feet in the chamber. You won't have much of a view except for what's just beyond the door. I'm pretty messed up. I'm just going to, I'm just going to be five feet in and hold an action in case I can see it. Okay, so you turn back towards the door and just hold? Hold, what, Sacred Flame? Sacred Flame. Okay, you got it. Gideon, what are you doing? You're still being held by the talon of Clara, but she's landed and is releasing you, so. Oh, she's releasing? You can let go. I can let go. I'm going to make my way downtown into the next chamber. All right, you move in. Do you move past Beauregard or up against her? Just up to where she is. Okay. You're about side to side with Beauregard. Easy enough, it takes 30 feet of movement to get around there. Where she is, now you walk up to the edge, the mist is dissipating and you see that this archway that leads into another chamber with dark brown, red stone. There's no light in there, but you have darkvision. I have a light on. Oh, that's right. You have a light in there as well. So looking inside, past that. The light, by the way, which you cast, still diminished. It's like the radius of it and the strength of it is halved in wherever you are at the moment. I have a question as

Input: Oh! This is going to be amazing. That could be interesting. You don't know what's going to transfer, though. No. Yeah. No. Ride it like you stole it. (like Nicholas Cage) (grunts) Okay, I'm ready. (laughter) Taking the blade that has carved a number of you down in the past and was responsible, permanently, for the demise of a few important figures in a number of your lives, seeing it begin to crumble in the face of this enchantment is oddly poetic. Thank you. As you, Sarah, feel the cold essence of its dark, bloody history begin to be atomized, you hold a thought of heavy redemption to put that power to better use as you feel it surge through your body. Uh, I think of family, the Tempest, Maeve, and Lyra, and eyes are on Lyra as this completes. Lyra just nods with reverence. Okay. You also take a permanent plus two to your dexterity. Ooh! Whoa! Fucking hell, what did that put you at? What does that put you at? Breaking past the 20 limit? Yep. Whoa! Yeah, that freaking rules. It's 20-plus? 20-plus? Damn! Take that 22. (whistles) Damn. Wow. White men can jump. (laughter) That, yeah, that surpasses Cedric. So you are now on level with Elias. Well done. Hmm. Wow. It's not a competition. I'm actually way, way shorter than Elias is. It's not something-- It's only not a competition if you're losing. (laughter) How's the funnel looking? We'll find out here in a second. Oh god. But the last bit for you to acknowledge is, whenever you strike an enemy that is prone with a melee attack, up next to them, you do an additional d6 force damage. Additional d6. I love that transfer. That's great. Cool. Is this on top of-- So hit the dex thing. -- all advantage on attack and damage? Is this in addition to that? No, that is-- You can do it directly from that-- This, you get a permanent benefit-- Okay. -- from this, but you do not get the advantage on all rolls. But as far as the percentage goes, let's see if the Quintessence Array maintains. Hmm. Live! That is a 98. Indeed. Oh. Sorry, sorry, Wilmott. (laughs) That's good? The Array flashes and glows.

Okay. There's no plus five HP for that. It's the-- Correct. Great, great, just wanted-- You want more? No, no. Heavens, no. What was your temporary before the, a short one? Was that plus seven? Yeah, from Heroes' Feast. Okay. I know. Is that it for the Array or? Uh-huh, I think. You may. I think so. Do we want to suck anything else? 40% chance? It goes to 40% chance? A coin toss? It goes to a 40% chance now, yeah. Oof. I feel like we, I think two a day is fine for now. Personally, that's my vote. Yeah, and I'm still not--

Input: not go to sleep. I was waiting quietly by the side of the door. Hey, I-- God, I'm really shit at this. Are you okay? No. Are you? No, of course not. I want you to know, I've been thinking about, I've been meaning to talk to you about this, and it's just, the timing has always been wrong, and it's always, we've been going so crazily, and I think that that's never going to change. Nothing beyond, do you want some company tonight? thank you. Oh. Just, nothing. Just, I don't know. If I may. Yeah. I would love some company, but, can we just hold onto each other? Everything hurts.

Bad at what? I don't really know what you're getting at. watching. Getting at things. Oh. It makes me nervous. Yes, that's exactly what I was hoping you'd say.

If you don't, that's cool. But I might get a little skittish. I might wake up earlier than you. I don't know. I don't know. That's very likely. I don't know why this is making me weird.

We don't know. It's a single 10 by 10 room. (laughter) I'm in the corner. It is a large tent with a number of cots and beds throughout, but Fiona stepped outside of it, outside the door. I was outside the tent. She went ahead and joined them out there. They've been having this conversation outside of the interior. Yeah, you don't hear. Truly in private. Yes. Yes, yes, yes. Okay, okay. We're all like-- (laughter) For those who have a passive perception under 30, yes, private. Okay. Oh, so you heard it all? Damn! Sarah's just like (gasps). Nothing! What is it?

Everybody can see everybody else. Yeah. But we're just in a big tent, like a yurt. Okay. So, yeah. I just, I want someone to hold me, and I want to hold onto somebody. I can't even remember the last time. Yeah. Yeah, sounds great. All right. Okay. As the rest of you find your respective beds, sharing, those who wish, until eventually, the exhaustion takes over and you all go into a long, thoughtful, 'til immediately passing out rest.

Input: is going to run around and stand next to Gwen. Okay. Runs around-- It rolled a 14, what's your DC? 14. Resists it, unfortunately. Oh, no. No toll. Sorry. No toll or anything. Anything else on your turn? I think that's basically all I can do, though. Okay. Molly you're up. I'm going to breathe deep and take a run at this damn thing. Come on. Straight into it and I'm going to come swinging out at it. Tell us how you taxidermy it. That's a hit, that's a 23 to hit? That'll hit. This thing doesn't take extra damage from this does it? No, it does not. No, that's fine. Seven points of damage for the first hit. Seven points, all righty. Is that right? No, wait, yeah that's right. Then, 23 to hit-- 21 to hit. Yep, roll damage. That's seven points of damage again. How do you want to do this? thank you. I want to go in and I want to see if I can carve through the mouth as deep in-- I'm going to try and get right in there-- I'm going to do a dental jawbreaker. As you go rushing towards it, it opens its jaws to strike. You slide down and with one scimitar you jam up into its lower jaw, which causes its upper jaw to be stuck and as you pull it out its jaw falls open. As it does, your other blade, you backswing dropping-- not dropping, but holding on with both hands on the other side, swing through and as it carves in, you actually get about one to two feet inward as the jaw lolls open. The tongue slips out as you cut it from the inside of the mouth. Its eyes go dull as the creature's body collapses to the ground, no longer moving. Fucking yes. With that point, the whole crowd goes cheering-- Kaelen, Kaelen. Kaelen, Kaelen. The gates where you came open, and you all go and return. The minute that it ends I'm going to start casting Prayer of Healing. Okay, as you guys step into the back chamber, you cast Prayer of Healing. Yeah. Who all is injured right now? I'm pretty bad. One, two, three, four. I'm pretty shit. I'm not too bad. You're not and you're not at all? I've been drinking and hiding. Okay, so I'm going to cast it on the five of us. All righty.

That's decent. 14 points to everyone. Oh that's great. That's huge. Wow. Healer. All righty. I think Fiona is the best healer we've ever had. watching. As you guys pull back into your chamber, there's a few nods. Darrow's clapping and the rest of his team are clapping. There's a clap from two of the Mountain Makers off to the side.

Input: looking very curiously across it. "This is very, quite majestic design, more than I've ever-- quite myself. "Well, I would love to think one day I could be as good a crafter of enchantments what this is that you present before me. But this is, damaged as it is, magnificent." Advanced? Definitely Arcanum era, definitely. Ancient. You see Maeve lean back a bit into her mantle. Do we think we know where Ludinus is? According to Evoroa, she said he's been researching and trying to gather things from Aeor. Do you believe he might possibly still be there? Yes, it seems to be a place of focus for them. There were numerous pieces of machinery like this. Then perhaps time is indeed of the essence. Even with this Malleus Key, pretty sure it was tech from that era. It seems like it might be imperative to their plan of awakening Predathos. Tofor puts both elbows in the table and leans forward, scrunching their central dragonborn eyebrow. It was discussed with the Ruidian Bormodo that they have encountered numerous challenges in their plot and perhaps if this tech is what they're reliant on, they are seeking an answer within it as well. I do not know much at all about this Aeor. Maeve goes, "I know of a few that have done some research there. Let me reach out and see if there's-- Just a moment." She reaches into her cloak and you see she pulls out a particular stone and steps away from the table for a bit, a little bit, quietly off of the side. Bing. Steps back from the shadows. Well, the individual that I know who has some personal experience with Eiselcross and the ruins of Aeor is in the midst of an important mission that they have yet to complete. But they said they can send another individual, an archivist of some kind they said to look for who has also researched these ruins. Said it shouldn't be too long. Perhaps gather your things. Maybe they can help take you to a place where this information might be more readily available but in the middle of this godforsaken desert. You're going to send us after them? To find information, hopefully. If not you, I'll find somebody else for the task. But if Ludinus is still there, Ludinus needs to be stopped if possible, at the very least what he's after be destroyed before he can make use of it. Boy, I feel we're really close to all this. More time we can claw from their plot, the better chances we have of success. They've had the upper hand this entire time. They sprung this long, deeply spun plot on us with very little knowledge on our part. As such, we've been desperately trying to catch up. With every step we take, they're 14 ahead. Now, with what you've done, a number of our other allies of the Accord have been able to accomplish in this past week. We've been able to reclaim some of that distance, but it's not enough. I would not ask you so closely after a dangerous mission to partake in another. Why stop now? We're just getting started. We are pretty invested. Yeah. You, Dorian? Wow. Perhaps I am not as familiar with the trees, but I have seen the forest and things are

Output:
* The group examined a majestic Arcanum-era device, confirming its connection to the machinery used by Ludinus and the awakening of Predathos.
* Maeve stepped away to contact an archivist who had researched the ruins of Aeor, while Tofor noted the challenges faced by the Ruidian Bormodo in their plot.
* Marcus was informed that an ally with experience in Eiselcross could send a replacement to help locate information in the desert.
* The DM emphasized the urgency of the mission, noting that the enemy had a significant lead and that stopping Ludinus was critical to destroying his plans.

Input: Stop, don't expression locked in stone. But nobody of your family. So Constance and Cornelius are fine and Calliope's fine. Calliope's fine. Corrin's been broken. You have not found Clarabelle or Colton. No Colton, no Clarabelle. Correct. Just broken Corrin. Okay. I have a brother and sister still somewhere here. Here? Maybe. Is Corrin a sister? Corrin's my aunt. I start looking at the ones pulverized near me. I'll come check all of these. Okay, you got it. Watching. Looking at all the bodies, some of them look to be travelers, they're dressed for a long journey. They all appear to be in the midst of either running, defending themselves or absolute abject terror. You see some that are dragonborn, you see some that are dwarven. It's a diverse array here, whether they be pilgrims or adventurers or members of the actual circle here in the cave that you were walking towards. You can't tell right now because they're all made of stone. And the cave is that direction? Further this direction, yes. Would it be possible-- I'm going to try using Mending on each individual piece together. You have the Mending cantrip? Yes. It's as long as the break or tear's no longer than one foot in any way, but if I'm going one piece at a time, using Mending, I don't know if that's going to make a difference. It's going to be a lot of casting. A lot of casting it's going to take a long time because it takes a minute each time. And maybe there is a chunk of glue just for that-- Exactly-- one piece. Yeah, the smaller pieces maybe try Mending on it, and then we also have a glue that covers a square foot. You do. That we can try to combine. You can certainly try. I will say with the pieces you found, go ahead and make a medicine check to try and understand where they might land within its body. This is an understanding of the physical body. Dorian pulls out the pearl and places it on Nadia's head and mutters for a while and little patterns-- Tap you as I walk by because I'm going to go to the other broken statue. And I'm there sorting the broken statue with Lyra. Guidance, okay. I'm going to just... You have one re-roll if you need it. Okay. Re-roll it. Re-roll it. I'm just going to grab Calliope and walk to the other statue. That is a-- ooh, and a d4. Oh, good! Okay, so that's 29. Jesus Christ, you guys are level 11? We had some bad luck. We've had some good rolls and then some shit rolls. Yeah, I know, I know, I know. All right, okay. You take a moment to inspect all the pieces of the body and quickly begin to assemble and jigsaw them where they fit both-- I spent a lot of time with puzzles. This is very-- apparently, yes, you have. Well, not just that, but studying physiology in the presence of where your mother's work office was. One of those 3-D jigsaws of the human body. There you go. You're doing a puzzle at the beach? Best vacation ever! Please don't break my aunt. You cast Mending as best as thank you.

I would like-- I'm wearing these little earmuffs that have little horns built in onto them. I'd like to get, if I can find some sort of shop, curio-type shop, a littler pair of horns. antler-y things. okay. you do eventually find one of a number of odd haberdasheries that are scattered throughout Rexxentrum. going inside, it seems to be more for, at least the one that you find for your purposes, is a little more meant for silly occasions. it's meant for celebrations. it's not so much just a classic nice-looking hat haberdashery, more of a place that presents for events and holidays. and, as you inquire within, they do not have a hat specifically with antlers on it, but they can cobble one together for you, ready by the next morning, if you'd like? I'll take it. all right. the whole thing together will cost you 20 gold. amazing. next-- uh I'd like to buy a lovely flower. like a silver flower. a silver flower? or white or anything. white's easier. sure. a silver flower could be done if it's painted. but yeah, white flower, you find for two copper. easy. and then lastly, the components to make a new fluffernutter. the real loss. yeah, you can find-- and you would know where to find those materials with the right questions being asked. just a singular fluffernutter? oh. maybe I should get enough for two, in case I fuck one up when I make it. a double fluffernutter? you fuck one up when you make it, you won't be around to make a second. a double fluffer? all righty. we'll say, with the knowledge and experience, how powerful do you want this fluffernutter to be? as powerful as the last one, and then some? okay. double the power. double the nutter, if you will? yes, double nutter. okay. oh. just asking you, it effects the DC of the check. sure. double the nutter. we'll say, for the materials to make two fairly comparatively powerful fluffernutters-- put you back about 120 gold. worth it. oh shit. boop! thank you, I'm done. that's not bad. gotta make us some more fluffernutters. well, we have to see if he's successful in making them now. oh, sure. oh. uh-oh. materials can be a waste or worse. don't do that in my house, please. I'm restocking on chocolate and cocoa, too. okay. just, I know it's-- as much gold or silver as you'd like to spend on it, you can mark it down. stupid amounts. easy to find in these areas.

Borlan: Watch for traps and stuff-- Sylvia: That's it? From where you're standing. You walk through. Sylvia: Okay, walk forward. Borlan: Watch out, there could be holes in the ground or something covered by the mist. Lyra: Oh, actually, yeah, we can't see the ground, can we? No, you cannot-- bless you-- because as you get about 20 or so feet in, the mist is about a foot high. Lyra: Oh, no. You get about halfway through, 30 feet, and it's up to your knee. Lyra: Okay.

It's so good! Did you try the pancakes? I tried the pancakes. They are delicious. I tried everything.

It depends. But only sucking up a person is permanent. Right? No, no, legendaries. Very rare and legendaries have some permanent effects. Yeah. Cool. The very rare ones give a permanent increase to your HP by five and you have advantage on rolls until you complete a long rest. Then legendaries give you an ability score bonus. Whoa! Do we have any legendary items? No. I mean-- Depending on the item, there might be additional benefits as well. Right. Dusk Hunger. We do have legendary. Oh shit, who's going to take it? Dusk Hunger is legendary. Ishta is legendary. No, it's gone. Wait. Harp of Valor is gone. That's what it was. Yeah. Ishta is legendary, Dusk Hunger is legendary. Mask of the Matron is legendary.

She's unconscious. The ring works towards objects, right? Also creatures. Well, maybe? Because it says creature. You can try to move a huge or smaller creature. Make an ability check with your spellcasting ability contested by the creature's strength. Is this the ExU ring? Yeah. Yeah, I think you changed-- That's totally overpowered? I love it. Yeah, I think he changed-- Use it! Didn't he change it to just objects? Grab her by the belt buckle. Did he? My overpowered ring? Yeah, I love it. It's okay. Grab her by the piercing. All right, yeah, he might have. You know, like-- Yeah. You can only turn objects that aren't being worn or carried. If they were dead, I'd say they'd be an object. That's fine. They're still alive. (off stage) (blowing nose) (laughter) Aw, Gideon. All right, you know what? I'm a Loony Tunes. Allergies are bad right now. Short. Yeah, they really are. Those spiky ones. That would be very good if we can make those spiky ones. Had a big schnoz. Ash, can you help me? What do you need? Can you go pick her up? (sneezes) Oh, geez! Once these fucks are done, yes. How many are left standing? There's two Shrike here that were focused on Fiona for a minute. There are these two figures, this one that's running away and the one that's floating and glowing that's currently holding Maeve in the air. Is he looking weird yet or no? Or is he-- I was hoping that he was telepathically controlled as well. But we'll find out. Seems to not be the case. Okay. Wait, who? Oh, the Exalted? The Exalted. The 16 year old boy over there. Yeah, no, he's just awake. Controlled by the-- He just turned into a X-Man, he's feeling it. Sleeping one. I got my learner's permit. So we still have some problems. We still have some problems, okay. I'm going to Scorching Rowan. Put out some Scorching Rays. I'm going to start with the one that's running away. Running away? Okay. The ranges on it is? Is I think it's 120. 120. That's right, we do-- Yep, 120 feet.

Input: Come on! Ah! That's so cool! Oh my god! (laughs) I don't trust it. I don't trust any of it. (laughter) This is all a plot. This is all a plot. (laughter) But maybe Rashinna would be able to give us some good intel about what lies await. Sure, but if we know that our friends in the Mighty Nein can communicate that to us, even if we're halfway down to the Hallowed Cage-- Yeah? I feel like we need to keep moving to be in place for this to happen. Remember, we still have to call our friends on Exandria and tell them we're here before we can do anything. Right. I imagine we'll do that as soon as we know what the actual plan is with these explosions. We'll have a timing, at least, set in place and then we can let Vox Machina know-- Yeah. But it would be good if we were in posish, too. Right. It's all supposed to happen at once, isn't it? Yeah, I think so. I mean, we're-- I think we go. We're pretty close to position. As far as Mighty Nein goes, you're pretty close to position. We don't know what lies past this line, though, right? I know we can send messages back to each other really quick, but we don't know what we're running into. We won't after Rashinna comes in either, will we? No, I'm saying talk to Rashinna. Talk to Rashinna. Yeah, yeah. Then we go. Then split. But what will we learn? We don't know because we haven't learned it yet. Possibly what we're walking into. Could we trust the Mighty Nein to deliver the message back to-- You can trust me with any messages. I will convey them to you no problem. Okay. Unless I'm out of spells, and then you're shit out of luck. So are we waiting for an hour? I would prefer, we talked about resting for a bit. Oh, that's true! You could get your spells back! Short rest? Yeah, that would be great. Short rest. Let's do it. Rest while we wait. Short rest. Okay. Okay. Now to recall, the notification to Exandria was to begin the assault, which would be the distraction when it's underway to allow you to delve and separate-- Got it. -- while the populace and the Weave Mind are distracted with the assault. So we should call-- Okay, so we need to-- -- Vox Machina now? Whenever you-- No. Call Vox Machina right before the (explosions) here. Well, they have to-- No. They have to get there, right? He said the opposite. To let them know the assault's going to happen, they have to gather the forces. They have to-- We need to call them now. Yes. (laughs) We call them now, take our short rest. Yeah. They're not just outside the fortress. They're all still separate in Vasselheim. Yes. That way, I'll be able to get-- So wait, do we want to-- Sorry. Do we want to slow them down instead of speed them up? If they've got to gather forces on Exandria-- We want to tell them now so
