Input: fragments that we also got from-- Mm-hmm. When we were up on the moon. Oh yeah. I would much rather be going somewhere than running from somewhere. Isn't Joe here? Or he's up in Bassuras. Oh wait, actually-- I think he's here. Right? Stationed-- Or was-- Was Joe here or was he with the Ashari? You're uncertain where he is at the moment. But he had been with Maeve. Maeve had helped you. Oh, we left him in Whitestone. Mm-hmm. Okay. I don't know. I feel distracted. Maeve first. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. You gather your things for the day and doesn't take long for you to notice that the energy is a little lifted. There is presence and purpose to some of the more elite guard within this space and the central war tent where you were first introduced to some of the Exandrian Accord here, you can see the security detail around it is a bit thick. It gives the sense that there at least is some sort of important figures meeting. If you approach around this time, you can see, and you can see partway in through the central open tent that there are figures having a discussion. You can hear the voice of the Voice of the Tempest just beyond the edge of the material itself, as well as a few other hushed voices. As you approach the guard, they take note and one of them steps forward. "There is a meeting, "but is this important to speak to the council?" Very. Yeah. It is, if you could tell the Tempest that her Savior Blade and his circle are here. that her Savior Blade and his circle are here. Very well. He steps inside behind the cloak. There's a brief little whisper. Returns. You may enter. Pulls aside and you enter within and you can see the central pillar of the tent has been pulled open. So a lot of the sunlight comes in and fills the space with a warm light amongst the other hanging chandeliers that are affixed on various chains and cables that sit within the center, keeping the area well-lit regardless of the shading. You can see the large table spread out and present indeed is Maeve, Voice of the Tempest. You also see Tofor Brotoras and Qi Mandozi. The Earthbreaker Groon is not present or any other figures. It's just these three currently having a conversation. As you step inside, you see Maeve turns and smiles and nods, but you can see the lines under her eyes. She looks like she probably hasn't slept in a bit and there is a bit of a lean toward her body against the table. Does she still look like she's recovering from her wounds? Best you can tell. You could make an insight or medicine check, actually. Okay. They're the same. Are they? They are. 13. 13. You don't see any visible wounds and the way she's leaning doesn't appear to be that she's at a dearth of strength, more that she just looks a little tired and is just bracing the edge of the table. But you're welcome to inquire further in. As you all approach, Maeve-- Sorry, I can't remember. Is Evoroa rolling with us or-- I don't remember. Are you bringing Evoroa with you? Evoroa went off with Maeve. Yeah. The previous night, so-- watching.

Input:
Shot. There is one large, central platform where it looks like this is where a lot of public presentations are given here in the Pentamarket. It's currently set up with a central table and a number of members of the Righteous Brand, as well as one that is a very well-adorned human male with brown hair that's pulled up into a topknot. He has a big, thick beard. Looks like a handsome fellow and he's currently barking out something about the military. You're too far away to make out the details of it. That one has a wooden carved sign that says Soldier's Spirit. It's currently put on the edge of the stage.
Where in relation to all of this is the Hearth of the Allhammer? Because I know it's in the Pentamarket.
The Hearth of the Allhammer would be on the other side of this large, forum-like structure.
I'm going to walk over to the Eagle Shot, was it?
Eagle Shot, yes.
What's that game look like?
As you approach, there are two crownsguard that are helming a small, compact archery range. There's a series of trees that are at the very back that mark what would normally be an alcove in this small park, but within this alcove there are three archery targets that are slightly off from each other at different distances. They have a rack with different bows and a whole cache of arrows that are set to the side.
I'm just standing there like, what?
Bows? Nah.
You could do it!
It's too hard to pull it back! This thing does it for you, look.
Maybe they'll let you use it.
I guess I could go ask. Excuse me, sir or madam?
The first guard turns around. "Oh, little girl, good to see you. What can I help you with?"
I'm wondering if you have to use a bow and arrow to compete or can you use one of these?
What do you-- Which, you still have a bolt nocked in this hand crossbow. He's like, "Put the--"
I'm not going to fire it at you! I don't have anything wrong with it.
Little miss, you shouldn't be waving that around in public. I'm not sure how you got a hold of that. Where's your mother?
My father is over there.
Did you want to play this game?
Yes, papa.
Unfortunately, by the rules you have to use one of the provided bows.
This one is pretty good.
Please put-- sir, your daughter is a danger to the general public right now.
No, she is an excellent shot. She's trained.
Well, she has not been trained proper use of that in a space in which is it safe for other people to be around. I'm just saying.
Sure. How much to play your game?
Could I see that for a second?
My daughter's crossbow, you want?
Takes it, the crossbow, and pulls the string back, removes the tension, hands it back. "There. Would either of you like to play some Eagle Shot?" Behind them, somebody like--
Now I feel like we have to. He just human-splained me.
The other guard behind is currently setting up an older woman who is in the process of getting the arrow lined up, and it keeps falling out of her grip and the other guard's like, "No, put it here," and

Input: How do I breath without my teeth? It feels so weird. I wonder if that's how it feel when you have dentures. I don't know. Just not having teeth, it felt really strange. Also, I remember they were like, "Whatever you do, do not swallow right now." And then I've never had an urge to swallow more in my life. Is that a challenge? It was like (grunts) They're blasting shit in your mouth, trying to clean it, saying that. "Do not swallow. Do not swallow." I'm like, "fuck it. Now all I can think about is swallowing this weird liquid that smells like apples. I want to do it." thank you Joe-Joe fans being like, (laughing) That's the joke or fact? He thinks I wouldn't swallow but I will swallow the poison. (laughing) Next thing you'll say is, "Don't swallow." (Garnt laughing) It's true. It's true. My God. It's awful. I don't like dentists. I don think anyone like the dentist, if they do, I don't trust them. I don't think anyone likes the hospital as well. Some people do. Really? Yeah. Who? Kids who want to play on the free PS2 that they have there. You talked about this, didn't you? That used to be me. I used to like it. But then the GameCube controls were robbed. I wish I went to your hospital because my hospital didn't have that shit at all. Have you guys ever had to ride in an ambulance? No. Yeah. I did. In Japan, actually. In Japan? Oh, okay. Yeah. Because Ahki had a slight accident at our last place, and it was pretty bad, so we had to call the hospital, and I was riding the hospital, Not riding the hospital, riding the ambulance. Riding the hospital. I had to get an ambulance. So I was riding the ambulance late at night, and because it was late at night, the closest spital was closed, makes no fucking sense. You'd think hospitals are open all the time. So we had to go to the next furthest one. So it was a 15, 20 minute ride. And luckily, Ahki was okay. She was calming down in the ambulance, and it was so fucked up because, in my head, during that whole ambulance ride, 95% of my brain was like, " Oh, God. I hope Ahki's okay, and she will be able to get out of this fine." And 5% of my brain was like, "Oh, fuck. I'm in an ambulance." (laughing) Like, "Whoa. This is so cool. I've never been in one before. This is what it looks like? Oh, shit." watching I would just feel really bad. I feel like I'm inconveniencing these workers. Even though it's their job. Even though it's their job. My leg could be broken, I'm like, "Oh, fuck. I'm so sorry for wasting your time. Surely someone else has a heart attack or something you can go to. I can get there myself. It's all right. That's called an Uber. [Garnt] Just call an Uber. Well, it's just, I remember I was in the emergency room, I've never been in that room before, by the way, but I was in the emergency room, and this guys was just holding onto his thumb. I thought that was really fucking weird. And he was really calm. He was holding onto his thumb like this, and I could see- What

You fly, moving right past Sarah. Do I see him? It's a roc! You come right next to Sarah. Do you stay or do you keep going? I'm going to get-- oh god, would that get me all the way to the bottom? 80 feet, not all the way to the bottom. As soon as I know I'm coming to the end, I would go to the wall and I would go and land on the steps. I'm not going to hang out in the middle. I'm going to go land against the wall. Massive bird person steps. No! On the steps. Sarah, you're falling past. Goddamn wildlife! At this point, watching the arc energy comes shooting up through the mist. I need everyone to make another dexterity saving throw. Goddamn it. Disadvantage for you. Actually, disadvantage for both Sarah and Beauregard. That was a natural one, so. These are dexterity saving throws, right? Correct. Oh, for fuck's! Okay, hold on, so that's 15 plus the seven damage that it absorbed from the Eldritch Blast. That's a 22. That it absorbed from it? Yes. 22 points. 22 points of lightning damage.

I look at the-- can I look at the crystal really quick and see if there's a-- can I grab it? Can I...? It's about seven feet up there is the main crystal, and all the spirals that are attached to it. What are you doing? Could I investigate if there's any way to dismantle it? Go ahead and make an investigation check. Use your action to do so. This is good for you, right? Yes. Yes, yes, it's a natural 19. All right, you spin around to the side-- Plus my investigation, which is-- Plus-- Come on, come on, come on! Eight, plus six! Plus six, you-- 25! You come around to the side, there's nothing on this end, on this wall. You come around to the side, and you can see there's a small, oval-shaped alcove. You glance in and you can see this small, blue sparkle. This piece of brass metal is dangling in the center of this alcove with the little blue sparks on each side and it's just held in the center.

Input: out of the ground. So even the parapets and walkways here have a naturally hewn, slightly uneven look to them. But as you pull over the side and look, you have a beautiful overhead view of the surrounding shale covered landscape of the Hellcatch, and you can just barely make out the-- I see the bird? Well, I imagine as a cockatiel, you're a brighter color? Yeah, white with a peach plume. Yeah. So very much can see her, this bright red bird creature that's now walking or flying as it continues across the area. Okay. I'm going to stay put, unless she goes so far off that she disappears from view. It guides you on for about five or six minutes. She's beginning to disappear from view. So that's a yes? Okay. I leap down. Okay. Land, tweak the ankle a little bit, but not too much. It'll be fine if you walk it off in a few minutes. But continue following the path, make sure you do not lose perspective on this. You continue to follow this tiny little creature, and it begins to slow down a little bit and look back. As you approach as a cockatiel from a five feet distance, looks at you curiously. Beings to skitter further south, further south, before looking back over its shoulder, nudging you in this direction. Wait. Where are we going? I just realized I don't-- This is a little far. You're just so cute. Okay, I'll keep going. Fucking smart as shit. You're still a bird? Gesturing and shit. Still a bird. Okay, so chirping-- Chirping. -- at the sugar glider. Except you're a cockatiel. As you're getting further away from the fortress, the landscape is coming up in large rock platforms, these miniature mesas of dusty rock and stone that rise up these platforms. The red light of Ruidus, gently being shifted by the faint orange glow from the sunrise in the distance. You can see there's the trees rising around at the stone around. Eventually, the creature stops, and as you approach, turns and leaps into the air, and then just stays there. It just stays floating in the air. Wait. Uh-oh. What are-- What's-- All right, I'm just going to float. And try to look and see what he's on. As the creature sits there in the middle of the air, you watch as a shape begins to shimmer and emerge from nothing. You see an armored, a dark armored gauntlet pet it. Fuck. As the shoulder pauldron begins to reveal-- You fool. Fly, you fool. -- what you can tell to be a familiar suit of heavy, dark fey armor. You see a pale figure with dark hair begin to emerge from illusory invisibility as the Sorrowlord Zathuda-- How the fuck-- seems to be now standing amongst this open space. You've got this. As soon as Sarah saw the sugar glider hovering in space, he went flat on the ground. Okay. The figure stands there, looking at your bird form. "So. "Difficult to converse in this form, I'd say." I pretend I'm a bird and I keep flying around. You panic flap? I panic flap.

Input: was going to be a while, but we'll see him soon. I'll let you tell him, then. I know that we wanted to refresh our supplies and maybe get re-outfitted. Will there be time for that before we head to wherever it is we're going, or is it something we could do there? Well, good question. Archivist Domade, where are you intending to take them before heading towards Eiselcross? Well, should my information be correct, we will be making a brief stop in Zadash, which is in the Dwendalian Empire, there should be a number of places to resupply. That's a pretty big city, if I remember, right? It is of sizable expansion, that is true. There are a number of districts there that could be of your disposal. So? That'll be fine. That'll do. That'll do. Do we have enough cash to buy-- We're going to need some money. What if-- Potions, if we need to re-up. Tofor goes-- Daddy's got you. We can reach into the war chest. Do not worry. We'll take a war chest. How much do you need? How much you got? We have a lot, but we have many directions to put these resources. 10,000 gold pieces? Well, you're sending us to Aeor to trail the head of the dragon, so. 500 gold more than what you feel comfortable with would be great. Look, I do not mean to barge into here, but just give a number. 10,000 gold pieces? 10,000 gold pieces? It's okay. Looks to Tofor. Done. Do platinum. Points to one of the nearby guards. Fetch Bells Hells 10,000 gold pieces. They immediately shove off. Maybe we should ask for more. I know, god, we should have. I love it when you're a monster. That was great. So is the energy that we're going now? I guess, yeah, I guess-- Oh, okay. Take a minute to gather our things. Dorian's going to scamper outside really quick, and unbeknownst, it's really fast, he's going to hit up these three little single-man tents where there's an armor and he's frantically grabbing shit. Oh, I'll help you, I'll help you with that. Okay, thank you. It's very clumsy. Well, I've got a giant hole, so I'm going to-- You've got a hole? We have a big hole. I'm going to open up the magic hole. Say that again. It's like a-- You heard me. I've got a magic hole. He's got a giant hole. Fiona takes what looks like a rolled up rug, a dark rug, and rolls it out across the ground, and as soon as it rolls out flat, the ground becomes a 10-foot deep-- Just toss it in. 10-foot hole across in the ground. What is in that hole right now? Have we cleaned it? No. We cleaned it. A terrible stench begins to emerge from the inside of this pit. There's a lot-- I think-- These were special order, are you-- No, don't put it in with the decomposing bodies. Fine, we'll clean it later. What, are you turned off by our deep, dark hole? It's not my favorite. We should--

Input: first competing team of this Victory Pit tournament: The Last Line, all the way from Bladegarden! The doors open, and all the gentlemen and ladies in the Righteous Brand armor push past you, with Gunther and the elvin gentleman, step out into the light. Now you can see the cloudy sky has broken up a bit, and there is a bit of sunlight coming down into this pit. They step out into the center as the emcee begins to step away. He goes, May the first fight be a memorable one. thank you. He steps back and enters a distant door that closes behind him. They all spread out and prepare. Across the way, a door opens and you see something shift out in chains that are then pulled off the body and the doors close behind. There you see a 12-foot tall frog-humanoid-like creature with a giant belly that begins to lumber forward towards them. They all immediately assault this entity, jumping in the air, vaulting off sides of the walls, assaulting it. One gets smacked in the face, it grabs another and throws it onto the ground. Another one rushes up as it grabs and slams it onto the floor and puts its weight on top of it, one foot pushing it down. Gunther rushes up with a blade and carves into a large section of its face. The crowd goes crazy as it pulls back and shoves Gunther off with a back fist. The elvin leader rushes forward and does a few quick swipes with his blade. The large toad creature grabs it and attempts to swallow him, and manages to do so, completely ingests the leader. The rest begin to assault. Make an arcana check. Aria: 18. DM: 18. You don't recognize the creature, but there's something about this entity. Marcus: There's just something about him. Derek: No, nine. DM: No. All right, this fight goes on for another minute or so. You watch them trade blows back and forth. Nobody falls, and eventually the general carves his way from the stomach of the beast with a giant swipe of his blade. You watch as the blood begins to pour from it as he leaps out, coated in saliva and the creature's own crimson, spins around, and as the large toad beast pulls back, they all together, with one unified strike, surround and attack it. The beast lumbers forward and falls to the ground, unconscious. With a rousing cheer from the audience, the previous doors open. As the soldiers raise their weapons high and give a respectful bow, they begin to walk back towards the holding area, as they drag the unconscious body of this creature back to where it came. Fiona: Do we all fight the same type of creature? Elara: Probably not. DM: The emcee shouts again from the side, With that, the banderhobb has fallen! Marcus: Bander rob? DM: Next, a last minute addition to today's tournament. We bring forth, traveled from everywhere-- Fiona: That's us! DM: The Mighty Nein! Marcus: Oh, shit, it's us! DM: The doors open again, and you guys are given a straight path into the center of this field. Derek: Yeah, bring it out! Fiona: Oh my god! Marcus: This was such a good day. Fiona: Oh no! DM: It's okay. I bumped it on the way over. Marcus: Whoa. Did you print that? On a laser printer? DM: No, this was from Mats by Mars, they do awesome stuff. Fiona: Oh my god, that's so cool. DM: You guys can place yourselves where you'd like. Marcus: Where's the doors watching

We were able to combine it with some of our initial designs of shifting and changing up our developments for various war implements here on Ruidus. They had developed a lot of things based around this thing, this Malleus Key he was talking about, and it was-- So part of my thing was to help originally to design tools that were used to burrow through the outer layers of the glass pillar where Kreviris was." Oh. It's an impossibly thick layer of glass, but the Exaltants, when they came in here and began to consult with us alongside Ludinus, they began

Input: you to whatever odd, dream state connection you currently harbor with them. You fucking dicks. And so with that, a day of rest is completed. A morning greets you. You are absolved of whatever remaining lingering exhaustion points you may have carried. You are healed. But for some of you, not the most restful evening of sleep. As you all begin to gather your things, what would you like to do? uh, well, I think after a night like that, the first thing I want to do is strip naked in front of a mirror. Yeah, I find Julian and do the same thing. I start subtly, like, pulling up sleeves. um, is there anything on my backside? uh. Lift up his shirt like I'm looking for ticks. Anything? uh, are y'all alone, or are we in the back eating popcorn for this? because we're like-- yeah. I would totally be here for it. we're all in the same room. I think we only got two rooms between the two of us. So probably in front of people. thank you. A few of you are seeing this. It isn't like-- so we're in the corner? in the corner being weird. Frantically searching each other for ticks. It's a thing. Mm-hmm. watching. With a brief investigation of Julian, you see a second red eye has apparated in the center of the shoulder blades in the back. I just tap on it. turn around, let me see your neck. You look where the tattoo that she acquired from Orly is, and right square in the center of the tattoo with a previous eye was, you see a glowing red eye has appeared. Oh no! separate locations for them, right, not like in between his scapula shoulder blades-- yeah. Different locations. yeah, just like the first were in different places. Shoulder for you, in between your shoulder blades, back of your neck, and where? hand. and my hand. so you each have two now? yeah. Are there pupils? Are they colored? Just a solid red. All of them are the same color-- all of them are the same color. -- not shades of red, okay. How does it go with the green, with the emerald? I mean, it's kind of nice. yeah? yeah. festive. yeah. Complementary colors? Reminds me of Winter's Crest. yeah. Do we feel any different? Make a perception check. Find me, Google Docs. Nope. Nope. oh shit, I said it! 16. Same as it ever was. We ain't learned shit. In the midst of all this chaos and tension, you take a moment to just check in with yourself and quietly breathe and feel and gauge where you sit physically, emotionally. You don't sense any different. Nothing seems to be shifted, elevated, diminished, beyond just the trail of adrenaline that's still pumping through your system post-discovery this morning. A lot of screaming. yeah, more talk of dreams and what we can craft from them. Did you get that? shit. Fuck. It's not every night. no. But... ticking clock. Do you think this is they're counting it based on the individual, or like we're-- they're counting it between us? Are we growing exponentially here? That's probably not right. Growing--? In ability, in power,

Input: rest of the group is traveling at the speed of your slowest members. Okay. Which would be Rowan at half speed right now. Yeah, that's right. Half speed. So we're limping away-- 15. -- from this horrific experience. Correct. I mean, that's about right. Yeah. Except Lyra. (galloping footsteps) 35 feet. Yeah. Skipping. Oh, he's gone. (runs into distance) As the shadows do enswirl your troop and you peel off from what was the feigned perimeter walk of your group from the site, you begin to make a western beeline in the direction where you hope you'll be able to see the encampment. The tension begins to fade after about five or so minutes when you do not see any of the other perimeter guards following suit or taking note of your divergence from the site. Now, as you all quietly walk under the stars of the Exandrian sky in silence, looking across the distant rocky barren horizons of the Hellcatch, really the first moment hits in where you get to begin to process what you've lost. I'm going to turn around and look up at the moon. uh, that was awful. We're still just wandering the desert en route to this encampment? That's where we're at? He didn't have to do that. Letters. He had been itching to do that since the day I met him. It's funny, it's the first thing I thought about, Aria. I knew he was just going to pull that shit. God fucking damn it. I remember your warnings to him. I've seen enough fights go south. If Letters hadn't done that, we'd all be dead. Yeah. I know. I just felt like we were so close, we could've had her. We don't know that, you don't know that. She was too strong. He saved us. He made it count. We've got to do the same. Yeah. I can be angry at the same time. Those are really easy to hold together. (sighs) That little fucking... (angry grunt) Where are we going? Back to Silas. We have to tell them everything we learned. Yeah. We need more help. I hope we made the right call with Liliana. I hope we made the right call with Liliana. You were never going to get her to-- She would've come, I think she would've come, but I didn't trust her. I think it's smart to give her this opportunity to prove herself. You've been without your mother for so long, what's a few more months if it gives us the advantage? It wouldn't have worked. I know. She would've come because you said so, that just is a fucking disaster. I feel like-- Fuck. I feel like that shit with Ludinus, 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

Input: am looking for a pair of books that I had when I was a child. One is a collection of Zemnian fairytales. Preferably one that contains a specific one. And then also, I'm looking for a-- I don't even know if it's in print anymore, but a primer on transmutation. Okay. And magic in general for children. Make an investigation check. That one's a little hard to find. Yeah. 22. It's hard to find, but not for you. Especially given that you know this so well, like the color of the binder, the pattern on the spine. You know this so well-- um-- that even in a wall of various scattered books, you know exactly what to look for. uh thank you. And the minute you pass by your third specific book repository seeking this-- you catch it in the lower-right, and there it is. One copy. Oh, the illustrations, I remember them very well. I'm sure you do, you going to buy it? Yeah, how much do I owe you for the two? Let me see that one there. Four silver pieces for the two of them. Of course. I pull that out. Actually, I just give him a gold. Wow, oh, wow, wow. Thank you, thank you, um-- well, here, take a copy of our zine. I don't know. He's just, he's excited. Zine? Oh, wow.

Okay, and I just stuff it away and head out into the street. All right. I've found everything I need to find. Okay, everybody done their successful shopping? I find Julian coming out of the store! Oh! Hey. I wrote down all my ideas. Oh, yes. Yes? Yeah, you wanted me to write them down. Let me see. Here. I hand him a thing. I hand him a piece of paper. All right, I just give it a quick look. Mm-hm. Yeah, that's good. That's good. Tha-- What? Why? Because. You fucking know why. What? Hoh boy. They're magic. I will-- They're not going to last, it's not going to be forever. I will-- I will do it. Okay. But that's a lot, Beauregard. That's a lot. How, out of all the things on that list, is that a lot? You wouldn't understand. I walk away. What were y'all even talking about? Oh man. I am so nervous. But excited! Yeah! Oh boy. Oh my god. All right, unless there's anymore shopping to be done. We could get the ring just appraised if you wanted. Yes, Rowan, we'll go to get-- we're going to stop, we're going to get some pastries, a lot of extra pastries to go into the haversack because it's always good to have pastries. And then, yes, Rowan, I will go with you to a jewelry store. Okay. Let's go get this ring appraised. I just want to see if it's kept its value, you know. You can hold onto it. Okay. You gather all the pastries you'd like. There are quite a number of locations, at least in the

Input: ate it, got food poisoning, sued the buffet place and won. - What? - Well hopefully he got a nice home. - Yeah. - What? - Yeah. - what? - And so now in Vegas, I don't know about the whole state of Nevada, but in Vegas every buffet place, legally has to throw out every single food that's left on that day and make it fresh the next day. So, I can't imagine how much food that's thrown away. - I mean that's good for customers though but unfortunately terrible for- - It's also a waste of a shit load of food. - You'd wish they'd just gave it away but it's logistically it's quite hard to just give away a lot of food. - Like donate it to the shelters? - Yeah. - I think some coffee chains in the UK, especially London, I think like Pret does it, where like at the end of the day, someone will come in and get all the sandwiches that didn't sell and then that night go and take them to homeless people. - Yeah. - oh yeah. So that makes more sense. - So they're still lucky to eat. That's good. - I am curious, as like the resident American here. - Oh, yeah. - Well I'm the only American. - Pretty much the only American - - You're the only American in the office? - Yeah right, apart from Sydney. - Yeah. - But Sydney doesn't count. - What? (Garnt laughs) - I mean she likes Ugly Birds 10 times but none of her opinions mean anything. I'm like how'd you feel when we actually like rant about America and you're just off-camera listening? - I'm just like, that's true. (all laughing) - Confirmation. - Almost the same thing. - Yeah, you have been wrong, but I'm just saying, "Ah whatever." It means everything. - Yeah, we rank on about our own countries just as much. - Yeah and then also Americans will rag on your countries and whatnot. - Yeah, of course. - It's interesting though 'cause most of my foreign friends are usually American, and it's interesting hearing, non-Americans talk about Americans that I know. - Has there ever been a time though where you were just like, "No, that's so wrong. I don't wanna tell them." - There are a few times but I just forgot. I mean the one that sticks out is the butter or the lard thing. Joey, you were saying that there's someplace that they put lard on popcorn or something. - Yeah. - I've never heard of that. (laughs) - Did we ever find out where that was or was it a lie? - I don't know. - I have no idea but I was like, "What?" - It's not a lie because I saw it with my own eyes. (Garnt laughing) So it's like, it's not a lie. Maybe it was that cinema, I don't know, but I saw it. - In Vegas? - Yeah, it's probably not like a common thing. - With melted butter is definitely a common thing. - Yeah. Yeah, yeah. - Did you speak to many non-Americans who speak English before? - Non-Americans who speak English. - In Japan? - Like Koreans? - I guess so yeah. - Is there a big difference between Americans and non-Americans? - The way you guys talk, some things you say and then I end up saying it. I'm like- (Garnt laughing) - Like what? - I don't know. - Like the time that I almost convinced you

Input: of the very moon that you stand on. In doing so, you seemed to draw some attention, but learned some very important things. As you now continue to seek information about what's happening here, what's important about it, who's responsible, and what you can bring back that might offer an advantage to all those that lie in wait on Exandria. You continued on through a storm, met some of the local wildlife from a distance, and then settled down in a mountain nestled city, or a village, where it seemed a lot of farm folk and livestock were being tended to, gathered in a very simple life. Still with a Reiloran presence, some working, some walking with authority. But here in the shadow, five of your troop have traveled down into one of the little farm sections, have traveled down into one of the little farm sections, an offshoot of the village proper, again, to transform back into your physical selves from the mist form within a storage structure of some kind. Upon nearly completing your structure, your transference, an entity walked in and noticed. About to squeal for a moment, you shouted towards it to stay quiet. Through a brief moment of persua-- um, persuasion, the tension seems to have been abated or not crossed over into anything dangerous, as the somewhat hulking looking, round backed, tree trunk-like armed creature, its hood pulled up over its eyes, its cherub-like cheeks, its curled thin nostril, elephant type nose that just pushes past the mouth. It looks up at you with dark eyes and is now quivering, asking you in Common, "What are you doing? "Who are you?" Lyra: We're here to help against the Ruby Vanguard. We're not with them. Uh, DM: "I don't want to get involved. "I don't want anything to do--" Julian: Are you Imperium? DM: "No. "Yeah, we all are Im--" Julian: What is Imperium? Sarah: (laughs) Sarah: We're friends. Don't worry, we're not here-- Oh, hi. Hi, smiley day to you. We're friends. We're not here to harm anyone. DM: "Are you friends of the Imperium?" Julian: Are you friends of the Imperium? Sarah: (laughs) Oh boy, that's not shady. (laughter) Derek: I think-- DM: "Yes, we are friends of the Imperium." Julian: Okay. Sarah: Then we're friends of the-- Lyra: A friend of yours is a friend of ours! Sarah: Wait. No, they're bad. Julian: Yeah, I know. Gideon: No, the Imperium's good. Julian: No, Imperium's bad. Kaelen: Insight check him. Sarah: Friends of the Imperium. Lyra: Yes. Sarah: But he's just saying that because he thinks that-- Julian: We're friends with them. Sarah: -- we're friends with the Imperium. Julian: I'm going to, wait, I'm going to-- (laughter) Julian: Wait, let me see if I have the spell slot. Spells. Yes. I'm going to Detect Thoughts. DM: You're going to Detect Thoughts? Lyra: Yes. DM: Surface? Julian: Sure. DM: All right. Julian: I want to see what he's thinking of about the Imperium. DM: Okay. The immediate emotional journey that the surface of this creature's mind gives you is that of panic, fear, a hint of curiosity. But in their head, they're like, "It's a test. "A test, I think it's a test." Derek: If we said we are not friends of the Imperium, would you turn us in? Because if we said that-- Julian: No, that sounds like a test. Sarah: Feels like a test, too. Derek: It is a test! (laughter) DM: "Of course, immediately." Derek: This is a test. Sarah: Wait. Derek: Look, we're ridiculous. Sarah: We hate the Imperium, all right? Let's

I'm sure they were like, "Yeah, watching" Yeah, you definitely need this." You need this. You need this. They were like, "Yeah, I do, grinding your teeth isn't an issue, but it might, so we can get a night guard done if you just want to be careful." And I was like, "Oh, sure." And then they did it, and then I just really didn't like it, so I just stopped using it. Because I grind my teeth as well, but my doctor was like, "If you don't have this guard, your bottom teeth are literally going to disappear." I was like, "Oh." I really grinded my teeth. "Please give me the mouth guard." I didn't really know about it until I started getting jaw problems. I think in my mid twenties, I started getting jaw problems, where it felt like my, Sometimes I'd wake up and something will feel off, or slightly dislocated or something. God. I didn't know that it was an issue until I started getting the issue. And then I went to my dentist and you're like, "Yeah. You grind your teeth a fuck ton. You need to wear a mouth guard because your bite is going to get more and more deformed. Well, after this episode, I'm going to schedule an appointment, because I forgot to reply to that email two months ago. Yeah. Yeah. I should probably go, too. But I hated it. When they did the mold thing, they put all that- That gunk in you. The putty thing. It was so confusing figuring out how to breath for a second. Where I was like, "Wait, shit. My mouth is completely covered with this gunk. How do I breath without my teeth? It feels so weird. I wonder if that's how it feel when you have dentures. I don't know. Just not having teeth, it felt really strange. Also, I remember they were like, "Whatever you do, do not swallow right now." And then I've never had an urge to swallow more in my life.

Yeah, I'm uh, I'm going to say: Everybody, there's been a misunderstanding. Let's just talk it out like reasonable adults. A little robot comes out of the hut. Yeah. (laughs) Yeah. As that falls, you can see the various villagers that have taken heavy hits are still groaning unconscious on the ground. The two Shrike, after watching the Willmaster tumble to the ground, blades out from their jagged-looking armaments that are Predator-style coming out of their bracers, look at you, (sighs) and stand resolute and calm for a moment. Amazing. Does it last? It lasts for a little bit. What's a little bit? You know. A round? A minute. A minute. Okay, a minute's fine. Okay. Let's get her inside. And if I have any more movement and if I can with my bonus action-- You got, I'd say 20 more feet of movement. I'll move to the old guy on the floor. Right here? Okay. No, I'm sorry.

So I'm going to dump a little healing po-po-- Okay. -- down his old man, down the gaping hole in his face that Chet created. (laughter) It's just a slit. Sprinkle it.

Elias comes out and plays peacemaker, but he looks up and sees Maeve contorted in the air and then looks over and sees the Exalted hovering. Oh, I forgot about that. So he turns to the Exalted and little dark green bordering on black vines and flowers start to snake along the ground towards him and erupt up his body as I transfer the Hex to him. Okay. I calmly walk forward and I try to knock him the fuck out. Go for it. Also, I took five points of damage that I had absorbed earlier. Right, from holding it.

And there's no sign of Dieter? Let's talk about this because they asked us a question. We should be able to answer it with something reasonable. Yeah, why? He said, Why should I believe you? Or something. That's the idea behind it. Yeah, because we're enemies, right? Why should he trust us? This could be a trap for him. That's true. It definitely is a trap for him. I think you should be honest. Elara always recommends honesty. Just say, We have a beef, but you'd be pissing off one of my enemies. That's true. Maybe we want to make amends for our previous transgressions. Yeah, we did turn him into a little thing. Maybe you could say we want to sail out of here unscathed. I've got 25 words, you guys, and you know I already have issues. I kind of like the beef angle. We know you like beef... Yeah. We got you beef... Julian loves the beef angle.

There is nothing I can do about him. I can try to take care of that. Okay. I think I can get the other guy, too. All right, I'm going to. Both the guys running are still heavily wounded from the Fireball that opened this up. This guy over here, you mean? Both of them, they're like panting. One of the runners. I think we saw them take off, so maybe we can try and chase them down. Were there any other ones that got away or is that everybody that was there? All the ones that you saw. It's only been a few seconds, at this point, and you've made a lot of loud noises. So you get the sense everyone in the village has heard this. Yeah. All right. We can still join the caravan, right? If we kill everyone on the caravan, we can take the caravan. We are the caravan. Well, shit's going sideways. What you got, Clara? I'm going to try and hop. I see where the animals are about to trample a bunch of people who are unconscious on the ground. There are two people that are. How many people are in the.

Get what you can get. I'll get

Input: Unknown consequences. You cannot guarantee me or anyone. You do not know what uh 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 thank you but I have and many of us especially since coming here we've watching. 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 you think it wants? It wants to be awake free of its endless dream. It wants to be free. You say it doesn't care about us. What makes you think apathy is any better than disdain to a god eater? It's hard to explain but there's something. Something just feels right about the path of what it wants. I'd say I could show you but I think things are a little intense right now and-- We don't have the time. We might've been getting one side of the story. You saying it wants something besides god eating? It's real tired of being here and it's real angry at those who put it there and it's real hungry. For what? For what it naturally hunts. Gods. G-O-D... S. sighs. We got to get out of here. We got to get away from the cities. I know there's so much to say but-- Make a perception or survival check for me. Pfft. Nine. You cruise around for a bit and you're starting to get a little close to not being certain how long you have left on this but I'd say after a good chunk of time you don't sense any other helpful caverns or such. I would've rolled up and been listening. Just shoulder up and-- Mm-hmm. The ridge line then the base of the mountain. Yeah. That's the best call. Let's go. The secret. Secret one? Yeah. We certainly can't go to the Bloody Bridge unless you can guarantee us safe passage. How else would you get out of here? We'll go to the Bloody Bridge. It's the only way out. We have to. Well. We could also... Go to the Bloody Bridge. Go to the Bloody-- Go to the Bloody Bridge because-- Are you coming with or are you staying? -- that's the only way to get home. (laughs) How am I more useful to you Tim? If I come with you I can't continue to tell you what's happening here. You won't know what change has happened should you come back how they're changing things or preparing for if not you whoever else is behind you. I assume a lot of Exandria is ready to come up here to unload a hellish payload of the gods' smite. I cannot even begin to imagine. I hug her. What if they pull you away again though? Then you know what to do. How will we talk to you? I feel like if I try to talk to you in a dream then they'll hear everything. I think if you're not here we can find each other safely. I think we can do that safely. Then stay. You stay. It's odd. You see a combination of heartbreak and relief wash over her. There's that glimmer.

Input: was like, "I don't know what this pasta was." It didn't taste like anything. It tastes like a weird Arabiatta, it was really strange. And then in the middle there was like a bunch of salad, but the salad was strange as well. There was like barely any lettuce. There was like chopped oranges, like a bunch of croutons and stuff.

Next to it. - At the hotel buffet? - No, it wasn't a part of the hotel. - 'Cause Tokyo Dome Hotel also has buffets. - It was so confusing and it was just the weirdest.

(Garnt laughing) - It was just water. And if you wanted the soft drink, you had to order it. - That's actually normal in a lot of buffet practice, in England as well, because that's how they make the money.

That's so cheap. - Buffets around where I was I think they were like, never more than 20 and 20 was like premium. - Oh my God! - Well like farm produce in your area? - You can't eat out in the south, like less than 15 quid, like 15 quid's like the cheap, cheap, cheap restaurants. - You could go to any restaurant and get a main for like 10 pounds. Like in a fresh main that's prepared well. So why would you go to a buffet, and stuff yourself full of chips and rice, and pay 15 quid. (Joey laughs) - Fair enough. - Buffets are just fun for family, I think. - Are they? Are they? - Yeah. - Yeah, 'cause you can challenge people. - You should get your kid to shop and run away. Right? - Challenge people? What do you challenge people? - Who can conquer it first? (all laughing) - Isn't it funny to do that as a teenager? - You only eat one place. - When I was a teenager I did think it was really cool. And there was an all you can eat buffet one time, and the pizza. - Did you wear buffet pants? - What? - Like stretchy pants. - There's an all you can eat buffet pizza chain here in Japan as well.

Think I can hide up here? Nah. I'm going to say probably not. Shit, all right, so-- You had advantage, does that-- that doesn't matter. Hmm. He wouldn't have had advantage on that. Why did I have advantage? Because of battle cry. Oh! If you had advantage on the attack, I believe it would allow a sneak attack. I think it does. Pretty sure it does, then. Battle cry. Good to remember. I even have that in my notes! Guys, I remembered something! Welcome back. I'm starting to learn how to play D&D! Yeah, no, you got it, you got it.

Input: are right now, it's mostly sand. Fuck. There's maybe about 70, 80 feet behind you, there could be more of a natural rock piece that's pushing out of the top. I would try to run towards that. There are five extremely distinct rocks, and you can see them right now because they're bright scarlet from where you battered yourself and bled out. This is true. Sorry. This is true. Those are my brains. What'd you roll, Silas? Nine. Nine. Okay. Oh no. So you are rushing up the side of this but the sand keeps giving way, it keeps giving way-- uh-- dragging back, and you watch as the side of it begins to rise higher and higher, the shadow falling on you, and the sight of your friends now flying above getting further away. Oh god. I'm going to start sprinting in her direction and hoping my 26 passive sees any vibrations in the ground. I'm just going to get to her. Okay, yeah. So you, at a very fast pace, dashing over there. Leaping over and landing that space, you see Silas trying to climb up the side but unable to find purchase in the ever-shifting, almost sea of sand around her. Below you can see, in the bottom of this conical trap, you see these large pincers beginning to emerge. Oh boy. And this odd, jagged-looking, thank you, chitinous mouth begin to open up in that space. I'm going to ski down the side under her legs. No, I'm going to use Bait and Switch. A superiority die. When I get to her, I'm going to yank her by the tail and swing her around so she's uphill and I'm downhill. I give myself eight to my AC, and I'm going to jump in the air and plant my feet on Silas's back and do sort of a rabbit kick and make a pushing attack and kick her. If I hit, you'll take one point of damage. That's fine. And shove her 15 feet up the slope. Okay, 15 feet. Yo. That's tight. What? I rolled real low, though. Oh, it's unarmed strike. Balls. Nah, didn't work. Seven. Nope. Can she willingly take it? But I can do it again. Can she just take it if-- I can do it again. That hits. That is a 17 that time. That's her AC. Yeah. Yes. So you feel his two little feet hit your back, and I just go (kick) and shove you 15 feet up the hill-- Whoa. -- and then drop and wait. You feel a (kick), the burst upward and you tumble in an upward direction head over feet until you crest over the top of the sinkhole that you stumbled into and now you can see all of your friends rushing and gathering in that space with Julian and Gwen up in the air and the ship now beginning to crest downward while all of you begin to push over to that space. You now tumble down to the bottom of this. Okay. The giant pincers, which now you can see, at a quick glance, they looked like they were just emerging. Now the rest of the creature's beginning to show, this massive head. Each pincer's about four and a half feet long. As you get close, you

Input: There's maybe about three dozen figures that you see throughout this entire village, total, that are currently out and about moving. Some of them are carrying the last of their workload for the day. Some of them appear to be, not unlike the Reiloran that you just saw, in the process of just keeping watch, making sure that nothing untoward is going on. Uh, okay. But when you first came down into the town, and got a quick glance as you were looking over, this town's probably 75% Bormodo at least. Uh, okay. But there were working Reiloran as well. Okay, and then follow up questions, looking at these two, which look like sort of guards, or warriors of some kind, using the fighter ability, Know Your Enemy, can I ask if their total class levels are lower than Fiona's, and if their armor class are lower than Fiona's? Those are the two traits that I'm assessing. Their total class level? Yeah, total class level, in comparison to Fiona's. Right. In comparison to Fiona's, they're a little bit lower. They're no pushover, but you do not see them as seasoned soldiers. You know, you don't feel threatened by them, to a degree. You just know it would be work. Uh, watching. Fiona's AC is 19. AC is lower, higher? AC is lower. Lower, and then the last question, what kind of attitude do those warriors have towards the Bormodos around them? That's not a feature or anything, I'm trying to see, are they chill together? Is it antagonistic? Make an insight check. Terrible. That is a two plus three. Hard to tell at night when you're a fart. Thanks. It's hard at night being a fart. Uh, thank you. Dono comes to the back of the large dome structure, and you can see, at a distance, it looks like one massive rock mud dome. As you get closer to it, you can see there's scalloped edges with circle window holes and portholes that themselves have bits of glass that's a little warped, and natural in its shape that fits into the window spots. You can see there are strips, like banners of painted art, or some sort of flags, or decoration that brings a little color to the exterior. These particular buildings have a little more of an aesthetic to them than what you've encountered on the outskirts of the village. You watch as Dono eventually makes eyes towards your group, nods, looks around nervously, leans out against the wall. Slick, slick, smooth. Real smooth. Leans in, and one of his small hands goes, Waits, looks back at the rest of you. He's a really good spy. Yeah, he really doesn't look obvious. You hear a sound of shifting chain. He's real good. The door opens slightly, and you see a figure just framed in shadow as the door opens. A similar hunched shape. Not able to make out much detail, and Dono talks for a moment. The tiny hands get together, and tap nervously. The big arms come together, and tap nervously in a much slower way. He's got small hands coming out of his chest. Yes, he does. Yes, yes, yes! Know what they say about small hands coming out of your chest. It's fucking weird. Yep. And awesome. Slowly, the

Everybody, again, take away your 2019 suburbia goggles and put yourself into hell. These people are in hell. They're seeing people decapitated, melted in acid. It's awful! Vored. It's vored constantly. Why do people play this game? It's satanic. Oh, maybe it all circles back around and maybe it really is. It's all about voring. Maybe it was Satan. Satan was the friend we made along the way. That's the theme of D&D. Ultimately, it was Satan. Plus, with you sitting right next to her, when you're not looking at the Twitch chat to try and figure out what to do next or fishing for compliments, you can look at her journal, because it's pretty close to where you keep your iPad with it-- Small correction, I'm half on her journal and half on the Reddit thread. Oh, wow. You're also on Zillow a lot. Well, you know, some three bedrooms always pop up right in the middle of our game. I want to be on top of them. Are you having foundation issues and you're thinking about-- Don't tell the buyer, but yes. Okay. Our winner... (spring rattling) (laughter) Thanks for the award. We have no excuse. We have no, "Sorry, guys, "we're super loopy from Denver, we just had--" I don't know. Our winner-- can I get to the goddamn-- Yeah. Our winner for this week was sent in by Courtney Armstead. It's so good! It is. @minomotu, photo by Ken @yenra. Let's take a look. Yes! I see Courtney every week. They do Borlan and Fiona. They do Clara and Sylvia as goth twins. Every week? What are you talking about? They post-- I mean, I'm in the hashtag looking at art every week. Submit! Hey! (laughter) Gimme this. These are what these are for, right? Franken-man. Yep.

Borlan: Can we get into a place? Everybody get in position around him? Kaelen: Oh my god, this is the stupidest thing we have ever done. Elias: I'm going to cast Brenatto's Voltaic Bolt. Kaelen: I'm going to hold my attack, and attack as soon as I see him. Arthur: I'm going to hit you with Holy Weapon. Game Master: Make a perception check, Beauregard, to know where he vanished. Rowan: Can I try to go under where he would bamf so I'll be right under his belly? Game Master: He was on the ground at that point, because he was trying to get away from the astral dreadnought, but you're right by where he was, so he'll appear right next to you. Elias: We just willingly took nine rounds of fire damage. Kaelen: You're tapping me for Holy Weapon? Arthur: Yep. Kaelen: Okay. Wait, what does that do? An extra 2d8, right? Arthur: It's... Extra 2d8. Game Master: All right, Bless goes away. Arthur: Yep, dropping Bless. Kaelen: Oh my god, this is stupid. Why did we do this? Borlan: Because he did it! He did this to us! He did this! Derek: He appealed to our greed. Kaelen: He totally did. He got in our fucking heads. Elias: Kaelen: He appealed to our greed. Game Master: Hey, hey, I'm just saying. In that moment-- Borlan: Everybody get ready, and then I'm going to drop it, and everybody cast something, right? Game Master: All right, so who's moving from where they are? Borlan: watching
