13
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,720
Last session.
A hush fell over the Whisper

14
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,280
Fang.
That wasn't simple morning

15
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,440
quiet.
The hearth sat dead, the air

16
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,720
thinned, and Qasdea's door
answered.

17
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,120
No knock.
Inside, her room was stripped of

18
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,200
order.
Belongings scattered like a

19
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,600
storm had moved through.
While she stood still, Osisa

20
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,080
found the note on the bedside
table, Qasdea's script sharp

21
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,600
with resolve.
Something from Pyre Heart had

22
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,280
followed.
Knew her name and Orion's.

23
00:01:04,519 --> 00:01:08,040
She would not risk the agents
distance with strategy.

24
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,600
Do not look for me, her oath
held.

25
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,480
Osisa sent a soft benediction
into the ledger's lines and

26
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:19,920
received nothing back but
silence.

27
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:26,440
In Zebulon's map room 3 sealed
plans from relvain pages clearly

28
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,040
born from a high oath.
Binders Ledger flared warm on

29
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,640
the wall.
Map Black Glass, Causeway,

30
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,880
Cinder Reach, Vault, Frost Line,
Watchtower.

31
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,680
Mimi's sharp eye flagged the
Providence, and Osisa argued for

32
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,400
caution.
The agents agreed to share only

33
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,840
minimal updates upward until
they understood who pulled which

34
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:51,480
strings they picked Frost Line
first, gathered cold weather

35
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:57,000
cloaks, rune chalk, and a single
memory bloom, and stepped into

36
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:01,200
the Shatter Peaks.
A mirroring drift awaited them.

37
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,640
Snow turned to ground glass and
light that lied.

38
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,320
Svara and Zebulun took painful
tumbles into sudden drops while

39
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,200
Mimi flowed across the treachery
and Osisa read the warp well

40
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:17,240
enough to shepherd the line.
Glaive and Harkum rejoined at a

41
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,600
fork and at Frost Line's base, a
pink haired artificer with a

42
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,680
buzzing companion.
Nick's ember coil flashed fire

43
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,080
and nerves before the sight of
their Ledger eased her stance.

44
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,760
The final approach demanded
intent.

45
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,480
Glaive blinked Harkum near the
doors.

46
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,320
Mimi bounded with predatory
grace.

47
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,800
Savara sprinted through biting
eddies, absorbing the cold

48
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,800
sting.
Nix misjudged once and came away

49
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,640
singed but stubborn, then landed
true.

50
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,840
Zebulon tried a mirror step
gambit that went sideways,

51
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,880
dropped hard, and Asisa's prayer
threaded A narrow path through

52
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:56,960
the interference to set his knee
right.

53
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,880
Harcum shouldered a pull door
the wrong way and still forced

54
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,400
it, an axe clattering from a
trip rig as they entered.

55
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:10,440
Inside, heat pulsed through a
split syndicate conduit while

56
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,680
failing ward rings glowed like
embers around the chamber.

57
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:18,440
Snow sublimated in mid air.
The tower felt alive and

58
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,920
overheated, a heart laboring in
a chest of stone.

59
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:26,440
Footsteps sounded from above,
measured, unhurried.

60
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:31,520
Nairos descended, calm and
precise, amber light tracing his

61
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,560
eyes as the conduit's pulse
answered his nearness.

62
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:39,480
Frost Line, he said, was a
message, not a weapon always

63
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,440
meant to break 1st.
And now that they had come, he

64
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,440
would not leave the work
unfinished.

65
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,040
Three ward rings screamed as
they failed, stone cracked and

66
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,640
sealed in flashes of orange and
Violet.

67
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,720
The pulse steadied under his
hand, with the tower itself

68
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,960
bending to his will.
The agents of the Syndicate

69
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:03,040
faced a choice that could set
the tone for every fracture yet

70
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:09,520
to come.
You came back.

71
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,240
I would say I'm surprised, but
surprise implies uncertainty.

72
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,680
You've never truly left this
conversation, no matter how

73
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:21,519
loudly you declared it finished.
Don't flatter yourself.

74
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,960
I came because silence was
becoming more dangerous than

75
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,200
you.
This place still answers the

76
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,160
truth, or at least it used to.
And I needed to know whether you

77
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,400
still did too.
You remember the path better

78
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,320
than you like to admit, even
after the Syndicate convinced

79
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,880
themselves you had burned every
bridge behind you.

80
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,840
I told them what they needed so
they would stop asking questions

81
00:04:43,840 --> 00:04:47,120
I was not ready to answer.
That does not mean I forgot

82
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,160
where this store was or who
waits on the other side of it.

83
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:55,160
Yet you came alone, no wards
trailing you, no allies hovering

84
00:04:55,160 --> 00:05:00,160
just outside of my vision.
That's either confidence or

85
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,640
perhaps desperation.
It is containment.

86
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,400
This place does not tolerate
witnesses, and neither do you.

87
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,560
If I brought anyone else, you
would have known before they

88
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,400
crossed the threshold.
You sound tired.

89
00:05:14,280 --> 00:05:17,440
I'm exhausted.
I am tired of being told you are

90
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,880
a monster by people who profit
from the same systems you are

91
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,480
trying to tear down.
I am tired of pretending my fear

92
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:29,920
for you is simple or clean.
Fear is never those things.

93
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:33,600
It's layered memory with teeth
sharpened by repetition.

94
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,720
Save the philosophy.
Explain why my son walked into

95
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,160
your shadow and came back
sounding like you.

96
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:42,480
He came back sounding like
himself.

97
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,920
I'm not sure what you're
speaking about that that fact

98
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,680
frightens you more than any
resemblance to me.

99
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,840
He asked questions, and no child
should be asking questions that

100
00:05:53,840 --> 00:05:56,280
carved pieces out of the world
when spoken aloud.

101
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,120
He asked the questions that
adults trained themselves not to

102
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,480
ask because the answers were
inconvenient.

103
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,440
That difference matters.
You let him believe he had a

104
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,240
choice.
That is the cruelest part.

105
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,920
He did have a choice.
You confused choice with safety

106
00:06:15,280 --> 00:06:17,440
because the world taught you
that those two things were

107
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:18,920
interchangeable.
They're not.

108
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:23,000
You stand in the center of a war
over memory and truth and call

109
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,840
it clarity.
You cannot pretend that is

110
00:06:25,840 --> 00:06:29,280
neutral ground.
No, I stand in a war that

111
00:06:29,280 --> 00:06:33,280
existed long before I named it,
and I refuse to pretend it is a

112
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,920
it is holy just because
institutions benefit from it.

113
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,920
You let him see too much.
You open doors that cannot be

114
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,440
closed again.
I gave language to what he

115
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,800
already saw.
The Hollowed Host erases people

116
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,400
politely.
The Syndicate, They keep their

117
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,720
ledgers of names and forget the
lives attached to them.

118
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:58,040
Orion noticed this.
I didn't teach him to see.

119
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,560
I only stopped lying when he
asked what he was seeing.

120
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:03,880
You should have sent him back
empty.

121
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,640
Empty is how the institutions
return people when when they're

122
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:12,240
done extracting value from them.
You always do this.

123
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:16,160
You dress inevitability up as
consent and call it honesty.

124
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:22,200
I make inevitability visible.
Consent is what you are doing by

125
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,960
standing here instead of leaving
when every instinct tells you to

126
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,240
run.
You win.

127
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,560
Do not look so pleased.
This is not surrender, this is

128
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,960
triage.
I am choosing which truth I can

129
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,120
live with and which one will
kill me if I keep denying it.

130
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,080
Almost you're choosing which
truth bleeds first.

131
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,920
You came for leverage, you
always do.

132
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,320
You looked at the world and
asked what I would bleed for,

133
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,720
and you found his name without
hesitation.

134
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,480
I did not search for leverage.
He came to me.

135
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,360
He asked why memory is hoarded
like currency, why grief is

136
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:04,000
taxed, and why everyone pretends
that forgetting is some sort of

137
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,040
mercy.
I know what you are.

138
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,680
I know what your power does.
It does not burn or conquer, it

139
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,840
settles.
It teaches patience till

140
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,280
resistance feels inefficient and
then calls that wisdom.

141
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,400
And yet 'cause they you crossed
the ward anyway.

142
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,520
And I'm still saying yes.
But not because you trust me.

143
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,840
Gods no trust would require
believing you are harmless.

144
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,720
And not because you believe me.
No, you lie like breathing.

145
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,400
Sometimes because you must,
sometimes because you like how

146
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,840
it reshapes the room.
And say why you're here without

147
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:48,760
disguising it as accusation.
Because Orion is not a lesson,

148
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:53,880
he is not a consequence, he is
not proof your ideas work.

149
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:58,760
He is my son and I will not let
him be turned into a philosophy

150
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:03,040
experiment.
And he is someone who asked why

151
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,040
the world needs forgetting to
function at all.

152
00:09:06,680 --> 00:09:12,440
Then hear this clearly.
Find me, Mark me, put whatever

153
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,920
part of yourself you need into
me if it keeps your hands off of

154
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,480
him and your influence away from
his future.

155
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,800
I'm not taking you as some sort
of trade or as payment.

156
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,600
Then define what I am to you
before I decide you're lying

157
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,840
again.
It's really easy.

158
00:09:29,560 --> 00:09:33,840
You are a witness, someone who
understands the cruelty of

159
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:38,800
memory that never fades and the
cruelty of forgetting that is

160
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,160
forced.
Someone, Someone who will never

161
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,560
worship me.
I want you honest when they call

162
00:09:45,560 --> 00:09:48,480
me a monster and call it
morality.

163
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,520
I want intent.
I want to know the moment

164
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,600
resistance becomes the habit
instead of just a thought.

165
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,600
Nero's swear to me.
Orion remains free.

166
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:04,320
No compulsion, no change
disguised as guidance or

167
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,640
destiny.
He does remain free.

168
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:11,440
He he can walk away from me at
any time and he would know owe

169
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,640
me nothing.
And if he does?

170
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,720
Then I will mourn that loss
honestly, and I would let him

171
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,880
go.
There's one more condition and

172
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:23,960
it will decide whether this ends
now.

173
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,240
I wouldn't expect that reaching
success with something like this

174
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,800
would go without a condition
speak it.

175
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:36,360
Stop let's write this story I
don't need the allegory please

176
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,480
just tell me what's real.
But nothing ever seemed to be

177
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:52,210
real.
But she's some colors that don't

178
00:10:52,210 --> 00:10:54,210
exist.
Painting my painting

179
00:10:54,290 --> 00:10:56,650
counterfeit.
Bless every truth I knew just

180
00:10:56,650 --> 00:11:00,210
starts to twist can from a calm
in a world like this.

181
00:11:00,690 --> 00:11:04,520
I've been my tongue till the
words went dry Like a chief

182
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,320
disguise.
I see the truth when I close my

183
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,440
eyes.
The hardest part was a great

184
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,160
goodbye and fake the ache can
master train.

185
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:18,440
I've been lost inside my name.
All the mirrors look the same,

186
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,960
but I don't see my face.
Face with stop, I've been.

187
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:28,760
Running every way lost the
blast.

188
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,840
Welcome back to Crit Habits here
on Spotify, iTunes,

189
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,200

We are here to complete another

192
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,840
mission here in another episode
of Crit Habits with the agents

193
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,800
of the of the syndicate.
Go ahead and say hello, agents.

194
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,360
Hello.
Hello.

195
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:20,880
All right, so as we left off
last session, you step into the

196
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:26,920
frost line Watchtower, and as
you remember on the watchtower

197
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:31,080
floor, as you all enter the
doors, cold stone presses close,

198
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,960
even in the open air.
Wind howls through broken arches

199
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,840
and drags thin ice across the
floor like whispering fingers.

200
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,080
The height of your stomach
tightens.

201
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,880
There's no railing, there's no
protection.

202
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:50,080
This place was built for
watchers, not for comfort.

203
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:58,000
The chamber is empty.
Almost a single figure stands at

204
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,520
the center of the tower floor.
Back to you.

205
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,280
No guards, no Thrones, no
sigils.

206
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:08,280
Just presents heavy and
deliberate, like the air before

207
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,480
a storm snaps.
Neros.

208
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,040
He does not turn when you
arrive.

209
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:18,880
He does not acknowledge
footsteps, armor, breath.

210
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:26,720
He already knows you are here.
Silence stretches long enough to

211
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:33,480
feel intentional.
Then, without facing you, Neros

212
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:40,520
speaks.
You made it further than most.

213
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:46,360
He turns slowly.
His eyes pass over you, not

214
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:51,040
lingering, not judging,
measuring, taking inventory.

215
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:57,200
The wind surges through the
tower, the tower rattling loose

216
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:02,520
stone near us, tilts his head
slightly and then looks at all

217
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:07,400
of you, 1 by 1.
You came here, there must be a

218
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,240
purpose.
Do you want her returned?

219
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,320
What?
Do you want her returned?

220
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:21,920
Who do you speak of precisely?
Who do I speak of?

221
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:28,040
Well, you tell me, when you
pictured this door opening, who

222
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:32,040
did you expect to see?
Definitely not your bitch ass.

223
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:36,080
I'm going to be honest.
Monster from the Syndicate

224
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:41,560
reports, perhaps the Heretic,
the Heretic from the Hollowed

225
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:46,520
Host Bells, or perhaps the
friend you abandoned in favor of

226
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:52,680
a simpler story.
Friend is arguable, mutual is

227
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:57,200
most likely.
I stay silent, but I am

228
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:01,320
definitely making a face at him.
I'm.

229
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,240
Kind of I stepped in front of
Zebulon and I kind of like

230
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:05,760
pushing it behind me a little
bit.

231
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:11,680
I think you misunderstand.
I'm not the friend I'm talking

232
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:18,920
about, but with that in mind, it
does seem that you've been very

233
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:24,480
busy rehearsing what I am.
None of you stopped to wonder

234
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,640
who I might be talking to while
you all argue about me.

235
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:35,120
Argue We're waiting for you.
What is it you brought us?

236
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:40,920
Who is it you're talking about?
Your resistance, truth, and

237
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,920
memory is astounding.
Let's recap.

238
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,720
You did not come when Orion
disappeared.

239
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,400
You did not come when the Bells
swallowed names right in front

240
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,520
of you.
You did not come when the

241
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,440
Syndicate rewrote its failures
as your orders.

242
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,320
You're so kind of tilt his head
a little bit, weighing each of

243
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:09,280
you individually.
And you didn't come when your

244
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:14,840
precious Castilla went missing.
And as he says that, he snaps

245
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:21,440
his fingers and right in front
of him appears a tee fling,

246
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:26,760
beaten, bloodied, bound in
chains.

247
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:29,000
Is she gay?
So tell.

248
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,160
Me something.
Oh, the on hand her.

249
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:34,160
Oh, she said.
The answer to that question is

250
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:35,720
yes.
OK.

251
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,440
If you don't get your slimy
little hands off of her, I'm

252
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:45,520
going to RIP you limb from limb
and feast upon your flesh.

253
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:49,560
You will become a casserole.
So did you come to save the

254
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,280
world, or did you come to save
her?

255
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:57,520
Why not both?
Why not both?

256
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,760
I warn you though, do not take
another step.

257
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,200
She's alive right now because
you all are listening.

258
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,800
I would like it to remain that
way.

259
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,560
What do you want an eye for?
An eye.

260
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:16,119
I have no eyes.
Oh, sorry, sorry.

261
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:17,839
No hair too.
That's gone.

262
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:26,599
Sorry, what?
Let's frame the situation before

263
00:17:26,599 --> 00:17:29,920
you ask.
No spell dragged her here, no

264
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,520
leash pulled her through the
dark.

265
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,440
She walked.
She walked into this watchtower

266
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:40,000
alone.
No syndicate wards, no escorts,

267
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:44,000
none of you to accompany her,
and no plan that survived 3

268
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:48,160
questions.
She came because of Orion and

269
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,160
now she's here saying because of
you.

270
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,400
OK.
So why did she choose me?

271
00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:00,040
She left you.
Maybe because you took her son,

272
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,560
Maybe because you blinded her in
the darkness.

273
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,160
There's a lot of variables that
could play into this.

274
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,160
However, it's not our fault,
it's yours.

275
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:13,760
You say that like it's a prayer,
not like it's evidence she came

276
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:15,160
here.
You did not.

277
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:19,720
That fact sits directly between
us, whether you acknowledge it

278
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,600
or not.
Hey, what?

279
00:18:24,120 --> 00:18:25,040
What?
Pause.

280
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,480
Back it up.
First off, what are you doing

281
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:32,240
here in this tower?
We obviously know that there's a

282
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,560
big war going on, and we're here
to fix Fractures 2.

283
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:42,280
Where's your son?
Let's back up for just a moment.

284
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:48,480
Mimi, I do not believe that your
character would know that Kasdea

285
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,760
has a son.
I unless I'm wrong, I don't

286
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:55,880
believe Tazaya has has informed
you of that.

287
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,280
I know that she has informed of
Sisa of that.

288
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,120
Yep, Yep, you're correct.
I don't.

289
00:19:01,120 --> 00:19:04,200
Oh, Sisa, you take the wheel.
Cece, you take the wheel.

290
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:09,520
Take the wheel.
Josisa take the wheel.

291
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,920
Spencer, you're going to have to
refresh my memory on this.

292
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:24,320
Wasn't Orion brought up in front
of the group as a whole when

293
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:29,600
Neros first turned on everyone?
I'm sorry, say again.

294
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:35,840
Yeah, because she she had that
dream or whatever and she shared

295
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,400
that with you and I assume you
shared it with that with others

296
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,240
too.
Neros I was riding.

297
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,880
Him in front of everybody, also
by name.

298
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,280
Orion, but.
Not by like explaining the whole

299
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:49,960
family tree.
Yeah, right.

300
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:56,680
My my memory serves as as
nearest brought up Orion.

301
00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:00,320
Or something like that.
Oh, you are correct that.

302
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,080
Yeah, you are correct.
I apologize.

303
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:03,960
Yeah.
So that was.

304
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,680
That was his proof to no memory
basically correct.

305
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,160
Yes, I, yes, I apologize.
That happened at the pyre heart

306
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,000
of chords.
So yes, we can revert to

307
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:15,240
everything I've said over the
last minute and you may

308
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:20,920
continue.
So you want to list a list of

309
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:22,520
what I'm doing?
Fine.

310
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,160
What I've done is I've treated
her like every other person who

311
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,520
steps into a story that they
don't control.

312
00:20:29,360 --> 00:20:35,000
I offered her terms, I set
boundaries, and I hurt her, and

313
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,240
she refused both.
You might call it cruelty.

314
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,120
I call it a consequence.
I have to wonder why you're

315
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,760
speaking with us Nero's at this
point, because you already made

316
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:50,680
us an offer to join you and said
we'd die if we didn't, and we

317
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:54,640
obviously chose not to.
So why are we even talking at

318
00:20:54,640 --> 00:21:00,680
this point?
I suppose, I suppose it's my

319
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:05,920
humanity.
I don't look for death, I don't

320
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:11,480
look to harm and hurt.
But I'd like for you to clarify

321
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:15,840
something for me.
Did you all come here because

322
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,720
she matters to you, or because
you can't stand the idea that

323
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:27,440
she chose to stand near me?
I would skin myself alive if it

324
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,120
meant having her back.
I don't give a flying fuck about

325
00:21:31,120 --> 00:21:34,680
you or your whatever you're
calling a revolution.

326
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,400
Whatever you're doing, I care
more about the person you

327
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:42,280
currently have bound in chains.
Oh her.

328
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,880
And as he kind of says that, he
kind of twitches his head, like

329
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:53,400
nodding to her, and you all just
see as a another kind of cut

330
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:57,920
goes from her temple, down her
cheekbone, connects just below

331
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:05,240
her jawline, not from any
physical action, but a clear

332
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,760
slow slicing across her face and
blood kind of falls out.

333
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,480
You want to take her home?
You mean the syndicate?

334
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,040
The syndicate wants to take her
home.

335
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,320
The people who decided what she
was allowed to question.

336
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:23,640
We honestly, currently, you
can't trust anything.

337
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,280
We can't trust the Syndicate
fully, we can't trust them

338
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,000
fully, we can't trust you fully.
But I know that we can trust

339
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,960
each other and currently you're
holding on to somebody who

340
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,400
matters.
It doesn't.

341
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,360
We don't give a flying fuck
about the Syndicate.

342
00:22:39,360 --> 00:22:42,080
At least I don't.
I've questioned them at every

343
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,120
turn, every single turn, every
single Rd.

344
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:49,760
I don't.
It's just give her back.

345
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,120
You're running around in
circles, making us guess, making

346
00:22:54,120 --> 00:22:58,560
us figure out riddles for your
stupid little game.

347
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,360
This is not a game, this is
somebody's life.

348
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:06,520
Give her back.
You for you, the people who

349
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:10,080
claimed to trust her and then
stopped listening when her

350
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:15,320
questions made you a little bit
uncomfortable, when she vanished

351
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:19,200
and you did nothing.
What are we supposed to do?

352
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:24,800
She told us not to look for her.
They respect her wishes.

353
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:25,840
And now?
She's.

354
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:32,960
From us, that was her decision.
So this was her.

355
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,200
Decision Also, we can't change
her mind.

356
00:23:36,360 --> 00:23:43,080
We can't go back into the past
and go, oh, Arfa Nugen.

357
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,120
So this must also be her
decision then.

358
00:23:46,120 --> 00:23:48,800
And you're also kind of take a
step towards her, half step to

359
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,440
the side where she's kind of in
front of him.

360
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,160
She's obviously bound and
chained on her knees.

361
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:59,200
He'll take his shield and kind
of rest it on top of her, the

362
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:04,880
ankle bone, and then lean down
hard and you can hear the crunch

363
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:08,240
of bone.
She chose this, right?

364
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,280
That's what you're saying.
She chose this.

365
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:15,080
What do you want, dude?
Quite actually.

366
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,040
What do you want?
We're all here standing up in

367
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,680
this tower with you as you
monologue at us and proceed to

368
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:25,320
break the bones of our friend.
What do you want?

369
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:34,960
Friend is a generous term, but
since you asked so plainly, I

370
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:39,080
will ask plainly if you want her
returned.

371
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:46,720
Good, then we treat this as an
exchange, not a theft, not a

372
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:52,480
ransom, A favor for a life.
We'll say a.

373
00:24:54,120 --> 00:24:58,440
Favor.
Favor, do we agree?

374
00:24:59,360 --> 00:25:01,880
Or you can what's you can come
take her.

375
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:09,520
No, I step.
Forward and and I will take her

376
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:15,520
place if you let her go.
I'm not interested in clerics on

377
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:22,960
the spiral down the drain.
Mimi's going to afford to go.

378
00:25:23,120 --> 00:25:27,880
I will return you a favor.
If it means that we can have

379
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,920
Cassadaya back, I will return
your favor.

380
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,800
You can call upon this favor
whenever you may wish.

381
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:38,800
Oh no, it's a specific.
It's a specific.

382
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:40,800
Favorite right now?
OK, what's your favorite right

383
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,360
now?
What's the favorite?

384
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,080
The precious syndicate won't be
very happy.

385
00:25:46,120 --> 00:25:49,040
What's new?
And what about the rest of you?

386
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,000
The cat speaks.
Does she speak for all of you?

387
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:55,640
You.
Zebulon?

388
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,240
What?
What about you?

389
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,640
I'm going to need more details
before I agree to anything.

390
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,160
Do you view me as evil?
I think evil is a matter of

391
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:10,080
perspective, and I think we're
on different ends of that

392
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:11,840
perspective.
I'll hear.

393
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:17,360
You about cleric?
Am I fallen or simply

394
00:26:17,360 --> 00:26:19,160
misunderstood?
Or am I evil?

395
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:24,200
You have the means to know.
You are an oath breaker as it

396
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,640
stands.
Whether or not you are evil

397
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:33,640
remains to be seen.
I broke no oath.

398
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:38,160
The oath went away when Velora
died.

399
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:47,480
There was no oath to break.
You killed Velora, you killed

400
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:55,120
your goddess for power.
You stand in the face of

401
00:26:55,120 --> 00:26:58,240
everything that is.
It is to be a cleric.

402
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,680
You act tough because being
honest would crush you.

403
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:08,040
I make no judgment on you beyond
what I have seen.

404
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,840
The gods will choose where you
belong.

405
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,400
So this is where we got to kind
of like play a little bit of a

406
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:18,760
play a little bit back and forth
here.

407
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,240
If I need to speak as glave, how
do?

408
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:28,480
How should I handle that?
I would just.

409
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,320
Kind of monotony robotic.
Yeah, I would say that would be

410
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:33,600
fine.
I can I can differentiate

411
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:37,760
between the two.
OK, So then Glaive will take a

412
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,840
step toward Mimi.
I think you're roughly the same

413
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:48,600
height, and he'll slowly kind of
lean in and just say Cat.

414
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,400
Do I attack him now?
No.

415
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,760
I was being diplomatic.
He is a.

416
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,600
Problem or being diplomatic
Glave.

417
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,560
There's a specific time for when
we break his skull open.

418
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:09,160
That time is not now.
We need to get Cassadea back

419
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:13,720
safely in our arms.
We cannot cross that threshold.

420
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,720
Do not cross the threshold or we
lose her.

421
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,480
Mimi and Glave, can I have
competing persuasion checks

422
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,600
please?
I'm not trying to persuade.

423
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:26,960
No, no, no.
She's trying to persuade you not

424
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:31,600
to attack.
Oh, I got a 27.

425
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:37,080
Oh no.
No, no, no, you haven't even

426
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,920
rolled yet, man.
I think you're gonna need, I

427
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:41,800
think you're gonna need that 20
girl.

428
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:48,120
Can you beat the 27?
She came within that 20 OH.

429
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:49,800
God, I don't.
I don't know.

430
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,520
I Oh no.
No.

431
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,680
If if you give me an AD 20,
you're you're solid.

432
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,280
I mean, I have another
inspiration to die, can I use

433
00:28:58,280 --> 00:28:59,880
it?
Sure, what the hell?

434
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:07,640
OK, please, please no.
Sorry, I feel like he's not

435
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:12,560
convinced to not attack, but
he's he's not trying to convince

436
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,040
himself to attack either.
He's looking forward.

437
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:19,600
He's just asking guidance, Yeah.
So I mean, glave at this point.

438
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,040
Yeah, glave at this point, you
would not necessarily fear the

439
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:26,200
compulsion to attack, but you
also feel like you've been made

440
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,720
to eliminate problems.
And the way that you eliminate

441
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,280
problems is by striking and
counting.

442
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,200
And you even after me means
like, don't, don't freaking do

443
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,320
it.
You're still like, you know,

444
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:43,040
that's me.
OK, can I ask how far away?

445
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:47,200
Are we from your house?
I would say about 30 feet,

446
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,080
you've just all of you have just
kind of entered the the

447
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:57,200
watchtower and are kind of lined
up by the door kind of in like

448
00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:01,520
1/2 circle almost where Neros is
standing in the center of the

449
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:06,360
stone floor of the watchtower.
Can I ask Neros a question?

450
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,400
Sure you don't need my
permission?

451
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:17,600
So, Neros, what is the favor?
I will fulfill the favour if you

452
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,080
tell me it immediately right now
and we switch.

453
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,800
You give us Cassadilla, you go
on your merry way.

454
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:26,320
I finished the thingy and then
we're good.

455
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,080
We're chilling.
You don't need all of us to

456
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,080
agree with the favour.
And I do need a life to agree to

457
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,600
the favour.
Son of a nugget.

458
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:39,240
OK, all right, one second,
Neros, if you'll excuse us.

459
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,320
And I'm going to like bring
everybody in like a little team

460
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,800
huddle.
All right, everybody, football

461
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:47,040
huddle.
Does anybody want to like roll

462
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:50,640
an insight to see?
Yeah.

463
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,040
About nearest is like if he's if
he's planning anything, you

464
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:57,200
know, because if you if you lose
focus on him or his attention.

465
00:30:59,960 --> 00:31:02,120
Oh, you're right.
We know.

466
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:06,080
He's planning something.
I mean, yeah, but like the on

467
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:10,000
the level of severity.
I'm rolling for Insight 18.

468
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,800
What would I have Spencer or
what would Nearest have to, I'm

469
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:20,960
going to say hide his intent?
His his real intent.

470
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:25,960
Let's call that a kind of
loosely A deception check, I'll

471
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,760
say.
That you're you're kind of

472
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,240
hiding your true intentions.
Sure.

473
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:40,040
That's Charisma 12.
So Nearest's overall intent

474
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:46,080
based on what you can see and
judge is not so much vindictive

475
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,400
or evil at this point, right?
He's not looking.

476
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:52,600
He's not looking for a fight.
Got it?

477
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,080
Not at this point.
Got it.

478
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,720
OK.
All right, So I'm going to turn

479
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,160
to my group.
I'm going to actually I'm just

480
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,400
going to still maintaining eye
contact.

481
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:04,680
I'm going to speak out loud and
go.

482
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:10,720
He not trying to fight us
currently is simply asking us a

483
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:14,520
favor.
If we want Cassadia back, we all

484
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,800
have to agree to the favor.
I understand this might go

485
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:22,160
against your oath or your
programming or however you're

486
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:27,040
built or structured, but I swear
to God, if we lose Cassadia over

487
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:30,680
this, I will personally hunt
each and everyone of you down

488
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:36,920
across the galaxies and eat you.
Why have we not asked for from

489
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,960
her?
Her mouth is not found.

490
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:44,000
Her mouth is gagged.
Oh, and that's not in the

491
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,040
picture.
Well, I I'm sorry, it wouldn't

492
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,600
do it because it ran into a
sexuality guideline.

493
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:57,240
What do you want from me?
You know, then never mind move.

494
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,160
The gag from her so we can we
can speak to our friend.

495
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:07,160
You wish to speak to her.
Yes, we wish to know her

496
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,720
thoughts.
I'm not sure she has much to say

497
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:15,440
right now.
All right gang, what are we

498
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,920
thinking?
Speak out loud or forever hold

499
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:23,840
your peace right the fuck now.
I'm concerned that might not

500
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:25,440
even be Castea right?
There might.

501
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,880
That might just be an illusion.
It appeared out of nowhere,

502
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,880
hasn't said anything.
Exactly, that's why we need the

503
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:38,000
gag removed.
Real quick, so just a couple of

504
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:41,880
things.
When Nero started smashing her

505
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:48,040
bones, she absolutely screamed,
but you would imagine the the

506
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,640
scream with like a muffled
sound.

507
00:33:53,680 --> 00:34:00,840
She she absolutely has made
noise when Nero's smashed her

508
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:04,240
bones.
Oh yeah, that makes sense.

509
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:09,840
Oh, Sisa.
Skeptical.

510
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:12,280
I don't know.
I think we could try to break

511
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,360
her free.
I've got a handful of tools

512
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:19,000
available to us.
I can use mislead to become

513
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:20,600
invisible and leave a duplicate
are.

514
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,360
We having this conversation out
loud in front of him.

515
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,000
Oh, Sisa my.
Understanding is that we were

516
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:29,600
having a huddle away from him.
No, because we need to keep our

517
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:35,480
attention on him, I tell.
You what what I would allow is,

518
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:38,639
is a huddle of perception and
I'm going to have you do that in

519
00:34:38,639 --> 00:34:41,400
just a second.
But basically what would happen

520
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,560
is Mimi would call the huddle of
everybody where she can be

521
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,520
positioned to not only talk to
you guys in the huddle, but also

522
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,440
keep an eye on Neros.
I would allow that that.

523
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:54,920
Well, that would be fine.
But yes, absolutely Neros give

524
00:34:54,920 --> 00:35:00,680
me a perception check to see if
you can hear what they say.

525
00:35:01,720 --> 00:35:10,160
Sisa 21.
You said 21. 21. 21 So yeah,

526
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:15,760
with a 21, you can't necessarily
hear everything word, you know,

527
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:20,120
syllable for syllable, but you
can hear, you can pick out words

528
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:24,400
that they're saying and you can
you can basically kind of

529
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:29,240
formulate what you think they're
talking about, but not

530
00:35:29,240 --> 00:35:32,240
necessarily the full transcript,
if you will.

531
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:36,120
You need evidence that this is
in fact Kazdea.

532
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:40,000
Yeah, that'd be helpful.
Maybe if you could let her

533
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,160
speak.
That's all we ask.

534
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,360
As I said, I'm not sure if she's
up for speaking, but if you

535
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:52,160
insist and he kind of leans
forward harder while he still

536
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:56,040
has his on on his shield on her
ankle and removes the gag from

537
00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,920
her mouth.
Kazdea is just going to scream

538
00:35:59,720 --> 00:36:02,720
outright scream.
No words, just scream.

539
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:07,080
I need everybody to give me an
intimidation check except for

540
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,600
Neros and Kazdea.
Basically you're making this

541
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:15,080
intimidation check to avoid the
effects of intimidation.

542
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:21,160
Basically you're making a a
check against intimidation with

543
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:25,920
this blood curdling scream that
Kazdea is letting loose.

544
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:30,600
Great.
I dropped my dice.

545
00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:32,560
It's gone.
Right away.

546
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:40,880
I got an 18.
Knife I got.

547
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:46,320
Who got under a 21?
That's me.

548
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,720
He.
Said this was intimidation.

549
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,680
Yeah, you're making a contested
intimidation check.

550
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:55,080
I'm going to burn an
inspiration, see if I can get a

551
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:58,760
better.
Yeah, I only got, I only got 19.

552
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:03,760
So we might be cooked.
We're cooked.

553
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:11,680
No fudge.
Well then Glave got 22.

554
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:20,400
OK, he will succeed Glave.
So everybody except Glave will

555
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,240
fail the role.
I won't necessarily tell you

556
00:37:22,240 --> 00:37:24,880
what that means yet, but you may
continue.

557
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,080
I would like to cast.
Suggestion at Kasdea.

558
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,800
Oh, I.
Would like to suggest please

559
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:37,040
explain what's going on here.
Suggestion that requires some

560
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,280
form of.
Manila, It.

561
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:42,320
Doesn't wear a wisdom saving
pro.

562
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,000
What about verbal or semantic
components?

563
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:50,080
Verbal yeah, she missing a tone
the.

564
00:37:50,720 --> 00:37:55,400
The thing out loud.
Yeah, you.

565
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:59,640
Suggest a course of activity
limited to a sentence or two and

566
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,800
magically influence the creature
you can see within range that

567
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:06,440
can hear and understand you.
So basically, yeah, if she just

568
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:10,760
like does what I said.
Please explain be able to do it

569
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:13,560
though, right?
It yeah, it does have to be

570
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,640
physically possible and it can't
be harmful to themselves.

571
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:18,560
So like, throw yourself onto a
spear?

572
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,320
They won't do that.
Got it.

573
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,080
And if it's not physically
possible, they can't.

574
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:30,960
So you so zebby on you would say
something along the lines of

575
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:32,840
explain what's going on here,
correct?

576
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:35,160
Yep.
OK, so you would say that out

577
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:40,280
loud looking directly at Kaz
Daya and whoops, I should turn

578
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:46,040
that off Kaz, they give me a
wisdom saving throw.

579
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:50,200
I would allow you if you wish to
fail the same voluntarily.

580
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:53,320
Well, I failed anyway.
I got a nap 1.

581
00:38:54,680 --> 00:39:01,080
Oh, inspiration.
With a Nat one, I'm going to say

582
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:04,840
that she's in so much pain that
she can't even formulate a

583
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:11,840
thought right now.
OK, so Eros.

584
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,680
The command lasts up to 8 hours.
I can wait.

585
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:18,440
I can wait.
I.

586
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:20,760
Can wait.
Can we?

587
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:26,200
Glave is going to lean into the
huddle again and and say we are

588
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:29,320
having a huddle to determine
what to do next.

589
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,320
Should I attack him?
No.

590
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:40,440
Please I can appear so I can
pull out my guardian.

591
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,280
Susa doesn't say anything and
she just makes very strong eye

592
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,160
contact.
Like what, bitch?

593
00:39:50,720 --> 00:39:53,440
Mimi is going.
To Mimi is going to pull out her

594
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:59,760
Ledger and is going to write.
Glaive deploys his guardian so

595
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,360
the thing that kind of looks
like a Cape on his back begins

596
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:08,120
to shed scales and form into
what is what is known as a relic

597
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,760
forged guardian.
It's a horsey.

598
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:14,920
Horsey.
It's a horsey.

599
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:17,600
Right.
It's it's it formulates kind of

600
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:22,840
like a steed, correct?
It's like a cat.

601
00:40:23,240 --> 00:40:25,200
Yeah, it's more cat like.
Oh, OK.

602
00:40:26,720 --> 00:40:34,560
OK, so Eros, what is the favor?
Before we agree to anything,

603
00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:38,800
what is the favor?
Give us an inkling, a hint,

604
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:42,440
anything.
I'm beginning to bore.

605
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:51,240
A mother trucker.
And I feel like this deployment

606
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,880
of, of what did you call it, a
guardian, I feel.

607
00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:00,200
Like that's just his point.
I feel like that was quite.

608
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:04,560
Oz hear me out, Hear me out.
Hear me out, hear me out.

609
00:41:04,720 --> 00:41:07,720
Glave is 3 years old.
He does not understand.

610
00:41:08,720 --> 00:41:10,960
He does not understand.
Forgive him.

611
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:16,320
He is simply an A child, OK?
Already in action.

612
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:19,480
If Miro.
Fires a spell at us.

613
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,280
I would like to cast Glow of
invulnerability over the party.

614
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:29,160
He is simply a child.
Just give us Cassadaya and we

615
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:34,840
will leave.
Please, if any shred of humanity

616
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:39,040
is inside of you, as you said
before, please give us back

617
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:43,240
Cassadaya.
I'll pledge an oath to you right

618
00:41:43,240 --> 00:41:44,840
here, right now.
Give her back.

619
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:50,120
Miros holds his hand up out
toward the party, this huddle,

620
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:55,440
and begins to chant a spell.
And I need everybody to roll

621
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,240
initiative.
Mother of Mary.

622
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:05,760
We are going to start with
Neros.

623
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:11,280
He will get a effectively a
surprise action in this

624
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,880
instance.
How does that impact?

625
00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:17,040
Yeah, how does the ready to
action go?

626
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:25,680
I would say that the readied
action what what is the spell

627
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:29,200
that you're casting?
Globe of invulnerability

628
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:33,360
basically just fizzles all
spells in like a 10 foot circle

629
00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:35,960
from the outside.
Or lower.

630
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:42,400
OK, so any spell of fifth level
or lower?

631
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,920
Cancel with that.
Barrier can't affect creatures.

632
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,360
OK.
So you're guessing a six, six

633
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:52,000
level?
Yep.

634
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,920
OK.
As a reaction to him casting a

635
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:57,760
spell at us.
So that's like the triggering

636
00:42:57,760 --> 00:42:59,760
condition for the ready to
action.

637
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:05,600
Sure.
OK, so you let's see here.

638
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:09,480
An immobile, faintly shimmering
barrier springs the distance of

639
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:12,240
10 foot radius around you and
remains for the duration.

640
00:43:16,240 --> 00:43:20,360
I'm good, I can keep going.
OK, the so the.

641
00:43:21,240 --> 00:43:23,760
As my action, I'll take my
action.

642
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:26,920
Let me keep playing up.
I never even said what I was

643
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:30,120
doing.
I guess so.

644
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:36,400
Nearest hold his hand up, we
rolled initiative and he

645
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:41,480
finishes his thought on it.
Seems like I'm being attacked

646
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:45,400
and he kind of making eye
contact with Glaive and he looks

647
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:52,360
down at the guardian and he says
well this isn't fair die and the

648
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:56,080
guardian immediately fizzles out
of existence.

649
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:01,040
There's a ninth level power Word
Kill.

650
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,760
Jesus Christ guys, This is why I
said we shouldn't attack him.

651
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:11,000
And yet.
I warn you now, next time it may

652
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:20,160
not just be a simple familiar
spell that gets destroyed the

653
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:27,320
way it can create another steed
and that'll be his action.

654
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:31,080
And he won't, he won't move and
he didn't.

655
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:34,960
He won't do any harm to any
living things.

656
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:39,280
OK, do you have any other
actions for your turn?

657
00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:44,080
No, OK.
Not on this.

658
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:45,520
Not on this turn.
Sure.

659
00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:47,560
OK.
We'll move to Mimi.

660
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:50,760
Mimi ain't never done this
before.

661
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:55,720
So brace with me, crew.
Mimi is going to drop to both of

662
00:44:55,720 --> 00:44:58,800
her knees and plead for
Cassidy's return.

663
00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:05,840
She's going to go Dang.
Listen, Eros, this is somebody I

664
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:08,920
would trade anything for.
I'll take an oath for you.

665
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:10,840
I'll bleed for you.
I'll kill for you.

666
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:16,840
Just give her back.
Let's say what?

667
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:21,480
Let's have you give a persuasion
check nearest to you with

668
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:23,360
contested persuasion check,
please.

669
00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:29,400
It's a very high DCI will say
though I'm actually nearest.

670
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:30,640
Don't do that.
Don't do contested.

671
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:32,840
Let's see.
Let's see if she passed the DC

672
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:36,160
first it.
Can be contested pretty good.

673
00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:41,600
Nuts.
I mean, that's actually not that

674
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:43,000
bad. 3020 I got.
A 30.

675
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:46,080
Yeah, holy fuck.
Is a 3020.

676
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:51,480
He will not be persuaded.
OK.

677
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:56,320
I appreciate your effort, but
I'd like to hear what the rest

678
00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:56,960
have to say.
We.

679
00:45:58,240 --> 00:46:00,800
Mean he's going to hold.
OK.

680
00:46:01,240 --> 00:46:03,880
Any anything else?
Yeah, I'll, I'll allow the

681
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:09,560
dropping to your knees and
pleading with nearest

682
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:11,680
effectively as a speaking
action.

683
00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:13,640
Call it a bone.
Yeah.

684
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:20,000
Action.
And I approve of bleeding.

685
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:23,120
And Mimi's going to unshoot her
claws and cut herself.

686
00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:30,360
She goes, I'll bleed for you.
Give her back Mimi 2.

687
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:35,800
Got it.
So she will effectively just

688
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,120
unsheath her claws and just.
Are we talking for attention or

689
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:41,560
effect?
What are we talking here?

690
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:47,640
Fact.
What do you mean affect your

691
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,280
attention?
What are those two differences?

692
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:52,160
Don't.
Worry about it.

693
00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:56,800
OK, So you'll just kind of cut
along your arm, just kind of put

694
00:46:56,800 --> 00:47:04,320
a gash about we'll say halfway
up your arm and blood will start

695
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:09,240
spilling from your from your
arm.

696
00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:12,800
Anything else for your turn,
Mimi?

697
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:25,000
Mimi, Mimi, you like, watch as
your pupils narrow.

698
00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:30,840
Like, Mimi's eyes are normally
big and, you know, lovable and

699
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:36,200
stuff like that, but her pupils
become more cat like as she

700
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,000
stares at Nero's.
OK.

701
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:44,320
All right then.
You're done.

702
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:45,800
All right, we will move to
Zebulon.

703
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:52,000
All right, so I'm going to start
by quickening the spell mislead

704
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,640
from my mask.
So like a clone of myself

705
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:59,960
appears where I am, it looks
like nothing happens, but I

706
00:47:59,960 --> 00:48:03,640
become invisible and can move
and leave that duplicate there.

707
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:08,480
And I'm going to approach Kasdea
and try to undo the bindings.

708
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:13,360
I'm with an invisibility.
Well, it looks like I'm still

709
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:21,320
standing by the party.
I assume that's within 5 feet of

710
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:25,320
Neros.
First, let me check one thing

711
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:29,680
real quick.
Zooming Castea takes up a square

712
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:31,560
and you take up a square.
I'd be 10 feet.

713
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:35,880
Castea would be 5 feet.
Yeah, I'm sorry.

714
00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:38,440
I'm just making sure that you
could cast the spell inside the

715
00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:42,080
globe of invulnerability.
So OK, Yeah, double checking

716
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:44,280
that.
So yes, the answer to your

717
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:47,280
question, Nero says yes, he
would be within five.

718
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:54,000
Well, he would be within 10 feet
of of you, 5 feet from Castea.

719
00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:59,560
Yeah.
No, I, I'm sorry, I, I, I, I do

720
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:02,960
have to say that he, he, you are
5 feet from both Kasdea and

721
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:06,480
Neros.
Effectively Neros and Kasdea if

722
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:08,000
we're talking is like a grid
form.

723
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:09,920
They are occupying the same
space.

724
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:13,120
Kasdea is right up against
Neros.

725
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:23,040
I'll just simply say Nebulon.
I have no eyes yet I see all.

726
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:28,160
I'll give you an opportunity to
step back if you choose.

727
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:36,360
Have I already begun on doing
the bindings?

728
00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:39,440
I'll have said that like as
you're approaching.

729
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:41,200
Yeah, yeah.
We'll say that as you are

730
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:44,880
approaching it, enter the five
foot space in front of them,

731
00:49:45,240 --> 00:49:51,120
that he says what he just said.
They're in the same square.

732
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:54,400
That makes a lot of the spells
I've got less effective.

733
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,040
Thorn Web.
I think I might just try to use

734
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:05,360
shocking grasp so within melee
range.

735
00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:10,280
OK, give me a melee spell
attack.

736
00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:15,960
We got a 30.
Wow.

737
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:20,720
Yeah, I'm impressed.
Yeah.

738
00:50:20,720 --> 00:50:24,360
Hits OK give me, give me damage
all.

739
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:30,800
Right, I think.
Are we in like the third bracket

740
00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:33,640
of damage now?
3D8.

741
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:38,240
Are you casting that at third
level?

742
00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:44,120
It's a can trip and I am like
12th level.

743
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:48,880
Yeah, so at 11 you get an extra
5 and 11.

744
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:56,640
One of them wasn't 8.
Just a moment.

745
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:01,520
Caste.
What's your Max HP?

746
00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:08,320
87.
All right, I did 24 lightning

747
00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:12,440
damage to Neros and then I would
back up just like 5 feet or

748
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:14,360
whatever after having zapped
him.

749
00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:18,200
It's going to be Neros and caste
because they're going to find

750
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:20,560
the same space.
So how much damage?

751
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:22,080
Not how shocking grasp works
though.

752
00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:24,360
Yeah, this is like a single
target spell.

753
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:26,960
Yeah, he literally touches like
my arm or my shoulder.

754
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:29,440
It doesn't.
Target retreat.

755
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:31,800
OK.
And then it wraps him and

756
00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:34,080
disables his reaction, so I'm
going to back away.

757
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:36,680
OK, how much damage was it
again?

758
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:43,240
24 OK.
All right, so does that also

759
00:51:43,240 --> 00:51:46,480
give away your position now that
you are attacking?

760
00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:49,080
Oh yeah, the casting a spell
does it.

761
00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:51,000
OK, yeah, but so I mean, I
already saw him.

762
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:52,520
Well, I mean fair, but just for
yes.

763
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:54,400
Yeah, he told me.
Narration person.

764
00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:58,920
Yeah, yeah.
So as you go to cast mislead,

765
00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:05,160
quickened physical embodiment of
yourself appears basically right

766
00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:07,760
where you were.
You go invisible, sneak around

767
00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:11,800
to right in front of Kasdea and
Neros, and as you go to touch

768
00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:16,320
his we'll say his shoulder and
cast Shocking grasp.

769
00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:20,720
You appear right in front of
Neros and Kasdea and let loose

770
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:27,240
the lightning damage AKA Emperor
Palpatine style.

771
00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:33,600
Anything else for you that'll?
Be it.

772
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:39,200
All right.
We will then move to OSISA, so

773
00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:43,040
again, let's see.
So you've just seen Zebulon, who

774
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:45,760
you thought was right behind
you, now appear right in front

775
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:48,840
of Neros and Kasdea and deal
damage to Neros.

776
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:54,120
Kasdea and Neros got it.
No, just just Neros.

777
00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:00,920
OK, let me just double check
something real quick.

778
00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:06,840
Yeah, Point of order with
shocking grasp, and this is I

779
00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:10,440
guess kind of mechanical
question from a new DM.

780
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:15,320
If you catch shocking graphs on
a target target that is touching

781
00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,680
another target, do they get
zapped as well?

782
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:24,280
No, it's got video game physics.
OK, going to say yeah, I I

783
00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:25,320
wouldn't.
I wouldn't.

784
00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:29,240
Yeah, not rules is written, but
if you want to narrate it as

785
00:53:29,240 --> 00:53:31,480
such.
Yeah, I do want to.

786
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:33,640
Yeah, I do.
I do want to have a bit of

787
00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:36,120
consequence to your actions,
Zebulon, and I'm going to make

788
00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:42,080
Kasdea take What's the damage
dice for the spell that you just

789
00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:45,720
cast?
3D8. 3D eight, I'm just going to

790
00:53:45,720 --> 00:53:51,120
say 1D8, and from the transfer
it'll do 7 lightning damage to

791
00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:59,200
Kasdea.
So caste and not on top of you

792
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,640
having a shield still in your
ankle, effectively.

793
00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:10,600
Now you just got zapped, so you
let out another guttural scream.

794
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:16,920
Mimi 3.
All right, then we'll move to

795
00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:18,600
Osisa.
OK.

796
00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:28,400
All right, so I'm going to cast
a spell and would a 27 hit

797
00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:33,000
Neros?
Well, what are you casting?

798
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:40,400
I am casting guiding bolt.
Counterspell.

799
00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:46,120
You do not have.
Anybody counter that

800
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:48,280
counterspell?
Neros, you do not have a

801
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:51,200
reaction.
I zapped you.

802
00:54:52,200 --> 00:54:54,640
Oh, I lose it completely.
Not just for your retreat.

803
00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:57,000
Yeah, you lose it till the start
of your next turn.

804
00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:02,080
Oh yeah, OK, cool.
So I would assume then that that

805
00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:09,560
hits. 27, Yeah, OK.
So that'll be a bolt of light of

806
00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:14,400
radiant damage and that's going
to be 8 D 6.

807
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,800
So that'll be 27 points of
radiant damage.

808
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:23,560
And I've got two of those are
sixes.

809
00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:25,920
So do you want me to re roll and
add that on?

810
00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:33,360
Yep.
OK, 1-2 more rolls on that.

811
00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:45,040
OK, so that'll be a total of 32
points of radiant damage and I'm

812
00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:48,000
going to basically aim it right
for neurosis.

813
00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:53,240
Face OK, so you'll let loose
this guiding bolt of radiant

814
00:55:53,240 --> 00:55:56,800
damage, and Nero said to come
right down on you on the face

815
00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:59,280
and just feel like a pretty
moderate sunburn.

816
00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:02,240
Cast Daya.
You will take 14 points of

817
00:56:02,240 --> 00:56:07,800
damage from the effect.
Why would why would she take?

818
00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:10,680
Because he's touching her and
what I'm what I'm.

819
00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:14,120
Basically, I think that doesn't
work that way, but it's your

820
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:17,280
call Lightning is different,
right?

821
00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:18,720
That's.
Radiant damage.

822
00:56:18,720 --> 00:56:21,000
That's true, basically.
Upon the Spirit.

823
00:56:21,240 --> 00:56:24,240
Yeah, basically what I'm trying
to sow at this point is that

824
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:29,440
damage that's taken by Neros is
somewhat felt by Cazde as well.

825
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:32,160
So I'll tell you what, I'll have
that do 7 damage.

826
00:56:33,240 --> 00:56:35,240
That's that's the point I'm
trying to get across here.

827
00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:36,240
Got it.
OK.

828
00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:38,320
Would that also apply then
healing as well?

829
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:41,080
Quick question.
Guess we'll find out.

830
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:45,240
Can we if we were actually?
Is that meta?

831
00:56:45,240 --> 00:56:47,640
If I ask that question, I.
Don't even ask that question.

832
00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:49,640
Whether or not you use the
answer makes it meta.

833
00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:53,800
Yeah, right.
Was separating her from Nero's

834
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:55,680
be a good idea as Oh yeah
sounds?

835
00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:57,440
Like a no brain, you can't know
that.

836
00:56:57,600 --> 00:56:59,040
Yeah, that's unfortunately,
yeah.

837
00:56:59,080 --> 00:57:02,360
That would be meta gaming, yeah.
OK, not bad.

838
00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:07,000
Who should probably ask?
Oh yes, you think so?

839
00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:09,200
Is what it sounds like.
Yeah, Yeah, it sounds.

840
00:57:09,240 --> 00:57:11,280
It sounds like me.
We think that's a great idea.

841
00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:16,360
Right.
I will say though, with with the

842
00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:19,720
guiding bolt, it you know, it
comes and hits Nero's directly

843
00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:25,600
in the face and as the kind of
like poof of smoke or whatever

844
00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:27,240
kind of fades, he's just
smiling.

845
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:30,680
It looks like it dealt some
damage, but not as much as you

846
00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:35,880
would have expected.
We forgot he's a God, guys.

847
00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:39,280
And how far?
He's like, what, 30 feet away,

848
00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:41,520
you said?
If you did not move, he's 20.

849
00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:46,120
What did I say?
25 feet Away, 20252025.

850
00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:48,680
So then can I run up to him and
her?

851
00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:53,520
Yeah, you still have your
movement.

852
00:57:54,880 --> 00:58:01,040
OK, so yeah, I'm going to run up
as close as I can get and

853
00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:04,360
that'll probably be it for
unless he's got a reactionary.

854
00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:06,120
He doesn't.
He doesn't have a reaction to

855
00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:08,760
his turn, I was going to say.
Yeah, OK.

856
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:12,320
No, but I I'd like to use a
legendary reaction now.

857
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:15,880
OK, I'm sorry.
A legendary action.

858
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:23,200
I'll firm my grip on Kazaa's
shoulder and I will at the end

859
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:28,680
of Osis's turn using my Echo
Step, and I'll teleport directly

860
00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:32,120
behind Glave 30 up to 30 feet to
an unoccupied space that I can

861
00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:45,480
see, and I will cast.
You know what?

862
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:50,400
I won't cast anything.
I'll just teleport with Castea

863
00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:52,680
and we both appear right there.
OK.

864
00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:58,480
All right.
Then we will move to Glaive.

865
00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:06,280
Glaive's turn, he's going to
turn around.

866
00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:14,040
You killed my guardian.
I don't understand the

867
00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:18,920
reasoning, but you can die for
it.

868
00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:26,320
So then he will.
One action he's going to, he's

869
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:32,320
going to go full, full swing.
So he'll take two attacks.

870
00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:45,440
The first one is a 2024, so that
hits.

871
00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:53,320
OK.
Second one is a 14 doesn't hit

872
00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:57,240
and then he'll use his bonus
action to use the pommel hit

873
00:59:57,800 --> 01:00:01,880
because of pull arm master.
OK.

874
01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:07,560
That's another 24, so that hits
also.

875
01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:13,680
OK, so one regular, one bonus
action hit.

876
01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:19,560
Now, were those attacks from a
magical weapon?

877
01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:22,360
Oh, yes, OK.
Just making sure, OK.

878
01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:30,280
Very, very magical.
He will however on SO do you

879
01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:35,840
want me to finish the full round
or do damage and stuff as I go?

880
01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:41,240
You can do it as you go.
I mean, you're not in any danger

881
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:50,280
of killing neuros.
So he's going to do OK, So what

882
01:00:50,280 --> 01:01:09,120
is my damage here?
1D10. 34 exploding oh man I need

883
01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:19,270
a calculator that's going to be
oh wait I have to I'm going to

884
01:01:19,270 --> 01:01:30,240
spend 2 spell slots.
Also one of 4th level and one of

885
01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:31,160
third level.
OK.

886
01:01:31,880 --> 01:01:34,080
And I'm going to define smite
both of those.

887
01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:41,160
OK.
That's the damage.

888
01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:46,560
I might define smite now.
Radiant damage, I know that.

889
01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:50,080
It is radiant divine smite.
Here we go.

890
01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:57,600
I hit creature 2D8 plus an extra
D8 for each spell that is first

891
01:01:59,560 --> 01:02:03,960
or higher than first.
So 2 second thirds, 48 for one,

892
01:02:03,960 --> 01:02:14,500
5D-8 for the other.
OK, that's going to be halved.

893
01:02:24,460 --> 01:02:30,860
So on that he takes 71 damage.
OK, that's how much he takes.

894
01:02:31,300 --> 01:02:37,540
And then action search.
OK, I'll make two more attacks.

895
01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:44,720
One hits, one doesn't.
He'll divine smite that as well.

896
01:02:44,720 --> 01:03:03,680
At a Level 3
man damage, that's another 29

897
01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:08,000
damage.
OK, that's all he's got.

898
01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:11,560
So with all that damage, Neros
is starting to look a bit.

899
01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:20,600
Warren will say damage wise, but
not not too much.

900
01:03:20,600 --> 01:03:24,120
I mean, he did just take about
100 points of damage, but he's

901
01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:30,400
still he's still standing.
So, OK, so anything else for

902
01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:32,240
Glaive?
No.

903
01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:37,400
OK, we will move to Kaz Daya but
she can't really do anything.

904
01:03:43,000 --> 01:03:47,600
So I mean, you can take a
speaking action if you wish, but

905
01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:53,680
that would be really about it.
She's going to do is scream and

906
01:03:53,680 --> 01:03:55,080
thrash.
You got it.

907
01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:56,880
Like she's trying to get free.
Sure.

908
01:03:59,040 --> 01:04:02,840
As you begin to thrash, the
chains begin to start slicing up

909
01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:06,800
your arms a bit and you begin to
bleed a bit more.

910
01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:23,160
That's it.
OK, then we'll move back to

911
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:31,600
Neros.
All right, Neros is going to.

912
01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:43,720
He's going to cast a spell.
OK, but you briefly stop the

913
01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:45,560
flow of time for everyone but
yourself.

914
01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:53,480
No time passes for other
creatures while you take three

915
01:04:53,480 --> 01:04:57,480
turns in a row during which you
can use action and move as

916
01:04:57,480 --> 01:04:59,840
normal.
It ends if one of the actions

917
01:04:59,840 --> 01:05:03,720
you use during this period, or
any effect or any effects that

918
01:05:03,720 --> 01:05:06,080
you create during this period
effects a creature other than

919
01:05:06,080 --> 01:05:09,360
you or an object being worn or
carried by someone other than

920
01:05:09,360 --> 01:05:12,120
you.
In addition, the spell ends if

921
01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:14,280
you move to a place more than
1000 feet from the location you

922
01:05:14,280 --> 01:05:21,420
cast it.
What's the name of the spell

923
01:05:21,420 --> 01:05:23,620
you're casting again?
I'm spell good.

924
01:05:23,900 --> 01:05:24,700
Stuff.
That's what I thought.

925
01:05:24,700 --> 01:05:27,980
OK, you take three turns
probably.

926
01:05:27,980 --> 01:05:29,620
Back to full health.
In a row.

927
01:05:30,020 --> 01:05:33,660
Yeah, back to full health.
And he's probably going to,

928
01:05:33,660 --> 01:05:37,060
like, casually step on somebody
and just, like, snap the neck,

929
01:05:38,260 --> 01:05:43,840
obviously, OK.
So you will cast that and you'll

930
01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:46,640
take your next three turns.
It's three turns.

931
01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:48,320
In addition to this current
turns, correct?

932
01:05:48,800 --> 01:05:52,160
Yeah, three additional turns,
OK.

933
01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:55,280
All right, so when you.
Attack that ends it.

934
01:05:56,640 --> 01:06:01,920
If I do anything to even like
manipulate anything that isn't

935
01:06:01,920 --> 01:06:05,200
me basically.
Not true.

936
01:06:06,160 --> 01:06:06,800
So wait.
Does new.

937
01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:11,440
Spells Level 9 spell slot.
What a jerk.

938
01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:14,680
Oh yes.
What a.

939
01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:19,520
What a jerk.
What a jerk.

940
01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:28,240
So with his, with his speaking
action for the the first turn or

941
01:06:28,240 --> 01:06:37,440
this turn, he'll just kind of go
into where, where, where was I?

942
01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:42,640
And he's going to spend the rest
of this turn and then all but

943
01:06:42,640 --> 01:06:47,320
one of the three.
So the next two turns, and he'll

944
01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:53,040
just kind of call out, where was
I before I was rudely threatened

945
01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:56,600
and interrupted.
So you asked what the favor

946
01:06:56,600 --> 01:07:02,800
might be.
I can share that information.

947
01:07:07,960 --> 01:07:10,200
Can we hear him?
Hello.

948
01:07:10,800 --> 01:07:12,200
Yes.
You still hear him?

949
01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:15,240
No.
OK, yes.

950
01:07:15,360 --> 01:07:20,360
Now I will say at the end of the
second turn of you, how many

951
01:07:20,360 --> 01:07:22,440
turns do you say you were using
to to do this?

952
01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:27,080
The rest of this turn that I had
and then two additional turns

953
01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:28,600
and then.
So I'll have one turn left.

954
01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:35,200
OK, well combat will end after
the second full round of nobody

955
01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:42,920
taking any sort of wounds.
I mean, technically right now

956
01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:47,200
she's frozen.
Oh yeah, that's true.

957
01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:48,480
So.
Somebody.

958
01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:50,760
Somebody will take damage, don't
worry.

959
01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:58,080
OK.
I want a man to tell the truth,

960
01:07:58,240 --> 01:08:02,280
that's all.
Not a confession shaped for

961
01:08:02,280 --> 01:08:04,520
mercy.
Not a story polished for

962
01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:08,600
history.
The pure and honest truth spoken

963
01:08:08,600 --> 01:08:16,800
where it cannot be walked back.
He must say what he did, who he

964
01:08:16,800 --> 01:08:26,040
broke, and why he chose it.
He must finish speaking before

965
01:08:26,040 --> 01:08:33,319
anything else happens to him.
I expect you're wondering who

966
01:08:33,319 --> 01:08:38,040
this person is.
You already know the type.

967
01:08:39,120 --> 01:08:43,040
It's the kind of man other
people keep rewriting so that

968
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:53,000
they can live with themselves.
Call him a commander, a patron,

969
01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:58,439
a Saint of convenient memory.
I want him heard as he is, not

970
01:08:58,439 --> 01:09:02,240
as the Syndicate or the Dominion
or the Hollowed Host like him to

971
01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:06,160
be.
You will not kill him before he

972
01:09:06,160 --> 01:09:08,880
speaks.
You will not edit what he

973
01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:11,960
speaks.
You will not spare him the

974
01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:17,479
weight of being heard.
This is not punishment, this is

975
01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:21,279
exposure.
If he lies, you press.

976
01:09:21,800 --> 01:09:26,439
If he falters, you wait.
You do not rescue him from

977
01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:32,120
himself when he is done, when he
has put his own story on the

978
01:09:32,120 --> 01:09:37,040
table where anyone can see it,
Then you may do whatever your

979
01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:51,939
conscience demands in return.
She leaves this tower alive only

980
01:09:51,939 --> 01:09:56,780
after this favor has been
fulfilled.

981
01:09:56,940 --> 01:10:01,380
I will release her from her
chains, from my mark.

982
01:10:01,980 --> 01:10:06,000
She'll walk back to you under
her own power and you get to

983
01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:08,000
call that a rescue if it helps
you sleep.

984
01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:13,560
He looks Kaz damn and back at
you if you refuse.

985
01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:17,040
If you twist this into another
story where someone else is to

986
01:10:17,040 --> 01:10:22,000
blame for your inaction.
And as she says that near us,

987
01:10:22,640 --> 01:10:26,240
kind of waves his hand just a
bit and the chains begin

988
01:10:26,680 --> 01:10:33,480
tightening around Kaz.
Daya, then she remains exactly

989
01:10:33,480 --> 01:10:36,960
where she chose to stand, and
you will have to live with the

990
01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:41,520
knowledge that you walked away
from her when the favor was

991
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:45,120
honest and the price was only
your comfort.

992
01:10:46,920 --> 01:10:52,360
So if you want her returned, how
badly enough to make one man

993
01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:57,280
tell the truth.
And then into his final, his

994
01:10:57,280 --> 01:11:06,200
final turn, at the end of of his
turn, he'll take an additional

995
01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:11,720
legendary action.
Let me get it here.

996
01:11:15,240 --> 01:11:18,320
So nearest targets, one creature
he can see within 60 feet.

997
01:11:18,880 --> 01:11:23,320
The target must succeed on ADC
Intelligence, an intelligence

998
01:11:23,320 --> 01:11:29,400
saving throw.
So he's targeting Glaive

999
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:33,920
Spencer.
Does anybody else want to roll

1000
01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:38,800
an intelligence safer glave?
His +2 intelligence is plus. 7 +

1001
01:11:39,520 --> 01:11:44,000
7 intelligent save.
He rolled A7, so 14.

1002
01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:49,400
Yeah, no, he failed.
So then he's going to get hit

1003
01:11:49,400 --> 01:11:57,120
with a memory lash, which does.
Wouldn't his time stop be stop

1004
01:11:57,120 --> 01:11:58,800
as soon as he did something to
Kezdea?

1005
01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:07,320
Yep, sure would.
Still my turn then, correct.

1006
01:12:09,360 --> 01:12:11,480
It's just the rest of the turns
I've already used.

1007
01:12:11,480 --> 01:12:14,000
So I would like if I used it
after like the first turn, then

1008
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,960
yeah, it would have resumed as
normal.

1009
01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:33,390
So Blaves going to take 28
points of damage, psychic

1010
01:12:33,390 --> 01:12:43,120
damage, and then at the start of
his next turn, he'll hold up his

1011
01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:51,040
hand to the group and to Glaive
and and just say just don't

1012
01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:57,440
forget how easy this was for me.
But you you can die and Glaive

1013
01:12:57,440 --> 01:13:02,440
dies.
Oh my God, that can't be right.

1014
01:13:06,320 --> 01:13:09,280
What the fuck no.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

1015
01:13:09,440 --> 01:13:12,160
Spencer, let me move.
Let me do anything, Please,

1016
01:13:12,160 --> 01:13:13,800
Lord.
Please, he's too young.

1017
01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:16,600
Come.
On I, I got to revivify.

1018
01:13:16,600 --> 01:13:19,760
Come on.
He'll finish, he'll finish his

1019
01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:26,840
turn with a he'll he'll reach
into his larger pouch, pull out

1020
01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:30,440
a smaller one, and he'll throw
it O sisa to your feet.

1021
01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:34,080
And a handful of diamonds fall
out.

1022
01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:37,800
And he says, I can do this all
day.

1023
01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:43,000
My intention isn't to kill, but
if I'm driven to it, feel free

1024
01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:52,240
to revive them.
Neros, these firms seem

1025
01:13:52,760 --> 01:13:58,040
generous, amenable even.
Who is this person that you want

1026
01:13:58,040 --> 01:14:00,120
us to convince to speak the
truth?

1027
01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:12,320
I understand the concern, but I
I will try to impress on you the

1028
01:14:14,200 --> 01:14:23,400
urgency of this happening.
While it may seem like not

1029
01:14:23,400 --> 01:14:30,320
enough, in exchange for her life
and her return, I promise you it

1030
01:14:30,320 --> 01:14:36,400
is.
The objective is to force

1031
01:14:36,400 --> 01:14:42,800
Magistrate Elvis Corin to give
his complete, voluntary and

1032
01:14:42,800 --> 01:14:49,680
public testimony of his crimes.
The testimony must meet all

1033
01:14:49,680 --> 01:14:54,080
conditions below.
If any condition fails, this

1034
01:14:54,080 --> 01:14:59,040
favor fails.
Corin must openly admit to his

1035
01:14:59,040 --> 01:15:01,480
actions.
Not implications, no

1036
01:15:01,480 --> 01:15:05,880
justifications, clear statements
of what he ordered and allowed.

1037
01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:12,080
I think I'll pause.
I'm going to pause here to see

1038
01:15:12,080 --> 01:15:15,960
if anyone wants to take actions
or if or if combat ends.

1039
01:15:16,640 --> 01:15:17,880
Yeah.
So that'll be into your turn,

1040
01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:24,680
then we'll move to Mimi.
That's really interesting.

1041
01:15:33,040 --> 01:15:41,240
So actually don't know what Mimi
would do in this situation.

1042
01:15:43,680 --> 01:15:47,040
You were already basically
groveling, so I.

1043
01:15:47,120 --> 01:15:49,760
Think.
Saying yes, I mean, basically is

1044
01:15:50,840 --> 01:15:56,160
what I mean, basically, yeah.
Mimi is going to, instead of

1045
01:15:56,640 --> 01:15:59,680
standing straight up, she stands
on all fours and she's going to

1046
01:15:59,680 --> 01:16:02,840
whip around a Zebulon and
Taylor's going to start lashing

1047
01:16:02,840 --> 01:16:08,040
and she's going to go.
We e-mail a message, the General

1048
01:16:08,240 --> 01:16:13,280
right the fuck now or I eat you.
I'm not kidding.

1049
01:16:15,080 --> 01:16:18,360
No more fun time, no more jokes.
This guy needs to tell the

1050
01:16:18,360 --> 01:16:21,280
truth.
Magistrate Elvis.

1051
01:16:21,280 --> 01:16:25,920
Corin needs to speak his truth
so we can get our friend back.

1052
01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:31,120
Well, you don't need to threaten
me.

1053
01:16:32,520 --> 01:16:36,760
I'm not threatening you, trust.
If I wanted to eat you, I would

1054
01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:45,280
have done so by now, however.
I employee I can't really you

1055
01:16:45,280 --> 01:16:47,520
see how well it worked out for
your friend Glaive.

1056
01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:52,000
I can't really write anything
right now, Zebulon, so I'm going

1057
01:16:52,000 --> 01:17:02,840
to need you or Sisa to do it.
We'll get the details in a pad

1058
01:17:02,840 --> 01:17:10,200
over the where Glaive's body is,
and it's going to lay down next

1059
01:17:10,200 --> 01:17:13,600
to him.
And like, you know how if a cat

1060
01:17:13,600 --> 01:17:16,440
lays down on their side and it's
like the paws out in the front?

1061
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:19,400
Yeah, Their tail lashing.
That's what Mimi looks like

1062
01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:19,920
right now.
OK.

1063
01:17:23,440 --> 01:17:27,760
We'll move to Zambian.
Yeah, I guess at this point I'm

1064
01:17:27,880 --> 01:17:29,600
feeling like we're out of
combat.

1065
01:17:29,600 --> 01:17:35,280
I'm ready to make a deal.
It sounds like he doesn't want

1066
01:17:35,280 --> 01:17:40,520
anything too nefarious.
As far as I can tell, telling

1067
01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:48,120
the truth aligns with my morals.
Does anybody else here can want

1068
01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:53,200
to continue the fight?
Or do we want to talk about

1069
01:17:53,200 --> 01:17:59,120
this?
I'm going to say that unless

1070
01:17:59,120 --> 01:18:01,480
anybody has any objections, you
guys will drop out of combat.

1071
01:18:04,200 --> 01:18:08,800
O Sisa would like to send him to
the gods for judgement, but she

1072
01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:10,600
is holding back for the time
being.

1073
01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:14,560
OK.
I I don't know if I wait.

1074
01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:20,400
Pause.
As one final action then near us

1075
01:18:20,400 --> 01:18:27,760
is going to cast Mass Heal on
everybody but glave OK.

1076
01:18:31,800 --> 01:18:33,480
OK.
You really don't like yourself

1077
01:18:33,520 --> 01:18:35,520
on that?
You really don't like yourself?

1078
01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:36,400
Do.
You.

1079
01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:40,040
Yeah.
So the audio people listening

1080
01:18:40,040 --> 01:18:42,480
just just remember Jesse killed
Jesse so it's fine.

1081
01:18:46,440 --> 01:18:48,120
Wait, did anybody else take
damage even?

1082
01:18:48,280 --> 01:18:53,160
Oh yeah, you first of all.
Oh yeah, and I I cast it on

1083
01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:59,400
Kasbeh also, yeah.
All right then.

1084
01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:00,680
Yep, you guys are.
You ready?

1085
01:19:01,960 --> 01:19:03,480
Are you ready for the?
Magistrate.

1086
01:19:03,760 --> 01:19:06,520
Yeah.
I'm curious, Don.

1087
01:19:07,280 --> 01:19:10,840
I'm sure you won't tell us up
front, but I would love to know

1088
01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:15,760
how this benefits you.
What is this magistrate done

1089
01:19:15,760 --> 01:19:23,600
that concerns Nero's the God?
Well, let's discuss scope.

1090
01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:33,640
The testimony needs to include
admission to forced relocations

1091
01:19:33,640 --> 01:19:36,640
carried out under false
emergency orders.

1092
01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:42,720
His testimony must include the
names that were removed from the

1093
01:19:42,720 --> 01:19:51,400
Dominion records, the sentences
carried out without a trial, the

1094
01:19:51,400 --> 01:19:56,080
reason he believed that it was
acceptable to function in this

1095
01:19:56,080 --> 01:20:01,240
way.
The testimony itself must be

1096
01:20:01,240 --> 01:20:09,440
heard by the victims or their
representatives, members of the

1097
01:20:09,480 --> 01:20:16,760
Unwritten acting as witness
scribes of ash, at least one

1098
01:20:16,760 --> 01:20:22,080
neutral third party.
This testimony must be recorded

1099
01:20:22,200 --> 01:20:26,440
in a form meant to last only
long enough to be used.

1100
01:20:26,800 --> 01:20:30,000
It is not scripture, it is
scaffolding.

1101
01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:36,040
And you must not kill him before
the testimony is complete.

1102
01:20:36,560 --> 01:20:42,120
However, once you have
accomplished all of this, as

1103
01:20:42,120 --> 01:20:46,360
I've said previously, let your
conscience dictate what to do

1104
01:20:46,360 --> 01:20:55,040
with him next.
I will be waiting at the Ash

1105
01:20:55,040 --> 01:21:04,880
Archive, but I will say don't
wait too long.

1106
01:21:08,680 --> 01:21:12,960
I have eyes, ears, and thoughts
all around.

1107
01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:19,440
And we, The Unwritten will
continue to monitor your

1108
01:21:19,440 --> 01:21:25,920
progress.
And you swear all you seek is

1109
01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:29,280
the truth.
All I seek is the truth.

1110
01:21:30,360 --> 01:21:35,440
This has always been my mission,
to bring to light the people,

1111
01:21:35,440 --> 01:21:38,400
the representatives that have
used memory for currency, for

1112
01:21:38,400 --> 01:21:48,080
pain, for power, those that have
edited the archives to fit their

1113
01:21:50,120 --> 01:21:57,320
directives.
Memory is not our memory exists

1114
01:21:57,320 --> 01:22:02,920
to be freely experienced and
freely forgotten as it is not

1115
01:22:02,920 --> 01:22:08,160
modified.
And he is a clear example of how

1116
01:22:08,160 --> 01:22:11,800
the syndicate to how the
Dominion, how the hallowed host

1117
01:22:14,880 --> 01:22:19,280
only works to their own benefit
with no care for others.

1118
01:22:22,440 --> 01:22:27,360
This will help me stop that.
All right, I have no objection

1119
01:22:27,360 --> 01:22:30,480
to these terms.
Does the rest of the group have

1120
01:22:30,480 --> 01:22:36,040
any concerns?
No concerns.

1121
01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:40,200
When you're ready.
To.

1122
01:22:41,320 --> 01:22:44,520
When you're ready to communicate
your progress, your success or

1123
01:22:44,520 --> 01:22:47,120
failure, find one of the
unwritten.

1124
01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:50,240
They can point you to the Ash
archive.

1125
01:22:52,760 --> 01:22:54,840
I'll be waiting.
He.

1126
01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:57,200
Snaps his fingers and he's gone
with Kasdea.

1127
01:22:59,280 --> 01:23:02,720
With Kasdea.
With Kasdea, why can't we keep

1128
01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:03,560
her?
I don't know.

1129
01:23:14,240 --> 01:23:18,760
All right, looks like we got
some torturing to do, crew.

1130
01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:21,880
As you guys are gathering your
things.

1131
01:23:21,880 --> 01:23:25,520
That's a good idea.
As you all are gathering your

1132
01:23:25,520 --> 01:23:31,280
things, you turn to kind of
leave the the watchtower and in

1133
01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:35,600
the doorway out between just
just right where the door kind

1134
01:23:35,600 --> 01:23:40,120
of starts the what's it called
the entryway.

1135
01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:42,080
The threshold, yeah.
Threshold.

1136
01:23:42,160 --> 01:23:47,320
But where the threshold is, you
see Kasdea laying on the

1137
01:23:47,320 --> 01:23:51,920
threshold, half in the snow,
surrounded in kind of a bloody

1138
01:23:51,920 --> 01:23:54,960
pool, and in all of your mind
simultaneously.

1139
01:23:54,960 --> 01:24:00,080
You hear I can take her back at
any moment.

1140
01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:10,520
Don't disappoint me.
God damn.

1141
01:24:12,520 --> 01:24:16,640
So she's badly injured very
slightly.

1142
01:24:16,880 --> 01:24:18,880
Rushing forward.
Yeah, I mean, she's the.

1143
01:24:18,920 --> 01:24:24,040
Mask The mask heel that was that
was cast on her is took effect

1144
01:24:24,040 --> 01:24:28,800
and as she returns now she is
far worse than when she left.

1145
01:24:30,520 --> 01:24:42,600
OK crap so Glaive is dead and
and I I I'm going straight for

1146
01:24:42,600 --> 01:24:44,080
Cazadea.
She's still alive.

1147
01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:47,160
I'm going to go for her first
and then Glave next have.

1148
01:24:49,080 --> 01:24:50,920
Been less than a minute or
whatever.

1149
01:24:50,920 --> 01:24:51,840
Well.
Unless.

1150
01:24:52,920 --> 01:24:55,800
Yeah, can I bring Glave back?
Glave is dead, yeah.

1151
01:24:56,520 --> 01:24:58,440
Glave.
Well, I mean, remember if it's

1152
01:24:58,440 --> 01:25:00,680
been within a minute.
Right, it's it has been more

1153
01:25:00,680 --> 01:25:02,440
than a minute, unfortunately.
OK, so.

1154
01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:05,120
Glave is just.
Well, there, there still is a

1155
01:25:05,240 --> 01:25:06,760
there still is a pouch of
diamonds.

1156
01:25:09,680 --> 01:25:13,400
Yeah, but I can only revivify.
Has to be done within one

1157
01:25:13,400 --> 01:25:15,520
minute.
Right, but there's clerics all

1158
01:25:15,520 --> 01:25:18,600
over the world that can cast
things like True Resurrection,

1159
01:25:19,640 --> 01:25:23,280
it just requires a diamond.
Jesus Christ, how are we going

1160
01:25:23,280 --> 01:25:25,320
to carry his big ass body across
the world?

1161
01:25:25,320 --> 01:25:29,000
The logistics, The logistics are
not letting up.

1162
01:25:32,480 --> 01:25:34,120
In that case, I'm going straight
to Cassadea.

1163
01:25:34,640 --> 01:25:37,160
And Cassadea, your wounds.
OK?

1164
01:25:38,400 --> 01:25:42,640
Yeah, Mimi's going to prop
Cassadea up, so I'll see if I

1165
01:25:42,640 --> 01:25:45,880
can treat her better.
As you propose, as you prop

1166
01:25:45,880 --> 01:25:50,920
Cassadea up, she screams at the
top of her lungs.

1167
01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:53,640
How?
Badly hurt is.

1168
01:25:53,640 --> 01:25:59,720
She, she, she's very, very hurt.
Broken bones, multiple broken

1169
01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:05,920
bones, blood, just kind of just
she's drenched in blood.

1170
01:26:07,400 --> 01:26:11,240
And also I need everybody that
is currently surrounding Kasdea

1171
01:26:11,240 --> 01:26:18,840
to give me a history check.
Oh, before or after the history?

1172
01:26:18,880 --> 01:26:22,560
It honestly won't matter, OK?
Cool.

1173
01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:27,280
I've.
History, History.

1174
01:26:27,280 --> 01:26:29,480
That guiding bolt fucked me up.
Yeah, did.

1175
01:26:29,560 --> 01:26:31,800
Holy shit.
Dirty 20.

1176
01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:35,320
Oh.
Sisa was mad is a dirty 20.

1177
01:26:36,440 --> 01:26:40,320
I got a 1717 Yeah O sisa.
Did I hear Zebulon say 5?

1178
01:26:42,760 --> 01:26:46,760
Yes.
He did OK everybody except

1179
01:26:46,760 --> 01:26:51,080
Zebulon.
We will say that O Sisa and Mimi

1180
01:26:51,080 --> 01:26:55,680
are cover or their surrounding
caste to the point where Sebelon

1181
01:26:55,680 --> 01:27:00,040
you can't make anything out from
where you were because you, I

1182
01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:02,800
mean, unless you took a few
steps after after combat, you're

1183
01:27:02,800 --> 01:27:05,920
still kind of about 1520 feet
away from the door.

1184
01:27:07,320 --> 01:27:10,200
So we'll say that they're
surrounding caste to the point

1185
01:27:10,200 --> 01:27:13,480
where you can't really see
anything but Osisa and Mimi.

1186
01:27:14,040 --> 01:27:21,240
You noticed that Castea looks
different than how you remember.

1187
01:27:26,520 --> 01:27:33,960
And we're talking, we are
talking from what she's wearing.

1188
01:27:34,320 --> 01:27:38,880
She what from what she's wearing
to she's a bit, her skin's a bit

1189
01:27:38,880 --> 01:27:44,560
darker than you remember.
She doesn't have the same gold

1190
01:27:45,720 --> 01:27:48,720
regalness that she wants.
Help.

1191
01:27:49,960 --> 01:27:58,840
She now appears more in a black
dress of sorts, almost fish,

1192
01:27:59,320 --> 01:28:05,240
almost like fishnet stockings,
almost up past her thighs, and

1193
01:28:05,240 --> 01:28:12,280
her hair is now braided and more
Gray than the white that it used

1194
01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:12,760
to be.
I.

1195
01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:19,840
Want to make sure this is her?
Yeah. 1.

1196
01:28:20,160 --> 01:28:23,720
Second, can I sniff her?
Perception or investigation?

1197
01:28:25,280 --> 01:28:29,520
You can give me investigation, I
guess, Mimi, you can roll for

1198
01:28:29,520 --> 01:28:30,920
sniff or insight.
Maybe.

1199
01:28:31,920 --> 01:28:33,080
Yeah, that's, that's a better
one.

1200
01:28:33,800 --> 01:28:38,440
Give me an insight, Mimi.
As far as your role is

1201
01:28:38,440 --> 01:28:43,160
concerned, you would have.
Advanced.

1202
01:28:43,480 --> 01:28:46,280
For sure with advantage.
Yeah, yeah, Perception with

1203
01:28:46,280 --> 01:28:48,760
advantage based on how you are
currently.

1204
01:28:50,440 --> 01:28:58,000
OK. 19 OK on then we'd say it.
Oh, dirty 20.

1205
01:28:58,160 --> 01:29:00,000
OK, so is.
It dirty 20.

1206
01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:06,720
With OCS 19 and Mimi's Dirty 20,
you both based on OCSA using

1207
01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:10,000
your eyes and brain and Mimi
using your nose.

1208
01:29:11,040 --> 01:29:13,960
This is this, This is this is
Kasdea OK?

1209
01:29:18,560 --> 01:29:23,840
I'm going to mask Cure Wounds
or, or wait, sorry, Cure wounds

1210
01:29:23,840 --> 01:29:26,760
on her.
Sure.

1211
01:29:26,880 --> 01:29:29,320
And this is going to be at sixth
level.

1212
01:29:29,680 --> 01:29:35,640
OK, so we'll say that currently
Kasdea is on one HP.

1213
01:29:37,200 --> 01:29:39,040
How?
How much healing do you get

1214
01:29:39,240 --> 01:29:49,040
casting at six level?
Sorry, that would be 70 points

1215
01:29:49,040 --> 01:29:51,400
of healing.
We'll say that you do Max

1216
01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:53,640
healing for that because you are
out of combat.

1217
01:29:56,000 --> 01:30:02,120
Oh hey quick question, sure this
is weird but this guest have

1218
01:30:02,120 --> 01:30:05,240
like strangles of hair like over
her face.

1219
01:30:05,400 --> 01:30:07,120
This is something that my cat
does.

1220
01:30:07,600 --> 01:30:14,400
Yeah, Castaia's hair is a mess,
almost saturated in blood.

1221
01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:19,680
Mimi's going to slick back her
hair with her tongue out of her

1222
01:30:19,680 --> 01:30:22,640
face.
My cat does this to me, so

1223
01:30:22,640 --> 01:30:30,560
Mimi's doing it to Cassadia.
OK, yeah, I mean, you can prop

1224
01:30:30,560 --> 01:30:36,360
her hair up with your tongue.
OK, let's just say she smoothes

1225
01:30:36,360 --> 01:30:38,000
it back with her hand.
How about that?

1226
01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:39,280
That's better.
That works.

1227
01:30:39,280 --> 01:30:43,280
Better, all right.
And then Cassadia.

1228
01:30:43,800 --> 01:30:47,040
Congestion again.
I mean, it's still active, I

1229
01:30:47,080 --> 01:30:49,720
would think so, yeah.
I guess it's 8 hours.

1230
01:30:51,720 --> 01:30:54,600
So.
I hope you're feeling better.

1231
01:30:54,600 --> 01:31:00,080
Can you help us understand
what's going on here more or?

1232
01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:02,400
Less like.
Reaffirming the same spell.

1233
01:31:03,680 --> 01:31:08,480
What happened?
He hurt me.

1234
01:31:13,000 --> 01:31:15,800
I went for for Orion and he hurt
me.

1235
01:31:20,120 --> 01:31:27,480
What did he do?
You saw, Were you not watching?

1236
01:31:27,760 --> 01:31:29,880
You.
You didn't think I was real.

1237
01:31:29,880 --> 01:31:38,240
You, you didn't think it was me?
I didn't think Nero's was

1238
01:31:38,240 --> 01:31:41,600
telling us the truth.
We were there to help you the

1239
01:31:41,600 --> 01:31:45,720
whole time though.
Truth is about perspective.

1240
01:31:46,800 --> 01:31:51,480
Never seen Orion though, he
wasn't here so I don't

1241
01:31:51,480 --> 01:31:59,240
understand what happened.
Is the way to see Orion.

1242
01:32:01,600 --> 01:32:08,360
No, no, no.
Is he OK?

1243
01:32:10,560 --> 01:32:16,280
Yes.
She kind of breathes a sigh of

1244
01:32:16,280 --> 01:32:19,760
relief.
Like, OK, all right, at least

1245
01:32:19,760 --> 01:32:22,520
Orion's OK, and now you're
better.

1246
01:32:22,680 --> 01:32:25,640
We need to see if we can find
someone to bring back Glave,

1247
01:32:29,080 --> 01:32:33,720
yes.
Yes, I'm, I'm OK, I'm, I'm OK.

1248
01:32:34,480 --> 01:32:37,120
She's going to kind of stand up
on wobbly legs.

1249
01:32:38,520 --> 01:32:41,880
Amy's got a sister and I'll wrap
her up in a gentle hug and just

1250
01:32:41,880 --> 01:32:43,320
go.
I missed you.

1251
01:32:45,480 --> 01:32:49,760
I missed you too.
All right, so.

1252
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:53,040
It's a great time.
Yes, it is.

1253
01:32:53,040 --> 01:32:54,480
That's a very good idea.
Let's take a quick.

1254
01:32:54,480 --> 01:32:56,000
Break.
OK, I haven't pee so bad.

1255
01:32:56,120 --> 01:32:58,720
Let's take a quick pee break and
we will come back.

1256
01:32:58,720 --> 01:33:00,880
We'll be right back with more if
grit happens.

1257
01:33:03,120 --> 01:33:08,440
Ever Con 2026 is almost here and

Welcome back to Crit Habits here

1289
01:35:07,840 --> 01:35:11,000
on Spotify, iTunes,
player.fmpoddirectory.com,

1290
01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:15,120
citro.com,
tuneinradioiheartradio.com,

1291
01:35:15,120 --> 01:35:20,280
SiriusXM Radio, and pandora.com.
We are back to kind of deal with

1292
01:35:20,280 --> 01:35:23,400
the aftermath of the
confrontation with Neros.

1293
01:35:23,800 --> 01:35:29,040
So we last left our party having
healed Kasdea.

1294
01:35:30,800 --> 01:35:32,520
She's still pretty out of it
still.

1295
01:35:32,520 --> 01:35:38,080
You know, she may be good on HP,
but she's still got effects from

1296
01:35:38,720 --> 01:35:41,520
the damage that she's been
inflicted.

1297
01:35:43,280 --> 01:35:47,640
So you are aware kind of
generally what you need to do.

1298
01:35:47,640 --> 01:35:48,920
So what would you like to do
from there?

1299
01:35:51,800 --> 01:35:55,640
At this point, I think kind of
Assisa would kind of get up the

1300
01:35:55,640 --> 01:35:58,880
group and be like, I think we
need to get back to syndicate

1301
01:35:58,920 --> 01:36:03,920
headquarters and we should
probably discuss the unwritten,

1302
01:36:04,040 --> 01:36:07,200
whoever they are, with the
leadership.

1303
01:36:07,600 --> 01:36:11,560
I mean, we're going to need to
find the magistrate and we don't

1304
01:36:11,560 --> 01:36:17,840
want Nero's taking Kasdia back.
Before we return to base, I

1305
01:36:17,840 --> 01:36:21,960
think we should talk about, do
we discuss with the syndicate

1306
01:36:22,160 --> 01:36:28,920
whether or not we've been given
this mission, you mentioned the

1307
01:36:28,920 --> 01:36:32,040
magistrate, or do we keep that
between the?

1308
01:36:32,040 --> 01:36:37,240
Groups, we keep that ourselves.
They don't need to know.

1309
01:36:38,280 --> 01:36:41,440
I don't even know if that street
is part of the syndicate.

1310
01:36:44,800 --> 01:36:48,440
Nero's never said anything about
keeping the secret, just that he

1311
01:36:48,440 --> 01:36:55,320
wanted us to do it.
I know, but if we tell them this

1312
01:36:56,360 --> 01:36:59,440
information and state they're
with the magistrate, they're

1313
01:36:59,440 --> 01:37:03,960
going to try to silence us.
Yeah, exactly.

1314
01:37:03,960 --> 01:37:06,160
Being open about it might make
our job harder.

1315
01:37:07,400 --> 01:37:09,880
True.
Yeah.

1316
01:37:14,520 --> 01:37:16,040
I think we should keep it quiet
for.

1317
01:37:16,040 --> 01:37:21,640
The moment.
OK, but at least at least we

1318
01:37:21,640 --> 01:37:26,400
need to get information about
who the magistrate is, where he

1319
01:37:26,400 --> 01:37:30,520
is, and we should talk about the
unwritten with them if nothing

1320
01:37:30,520 --> 01:37:33,520
else.
Absolutely, yes, I agree with

1321
01:37:33,520 --> 01:37:38,040
that.
Castea, do you think you're out

1322
01:37:38,040 --> 01:37:40,400
for traveling?
Written took pasadayo.

1323
01:37:45,400 --> 01:37:46,800
I suppose so.
Why?

1324
01:37:47,480 --> 01:37:50,360
Why wouldn't I be?
Let's go.

1325
01:37:51,200 --> 01:37:55,520
Let's get this over with.
All right.

1326
01:37:55,520 --> 01:37:57,240
Hop on my.
Back, let's roll.

1327
01:38:00,800 --> 01:38:03,400
What about glave?
All right, we're hitting the

1328
01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:05,480
road, Jack.
Oh fuck.

1329
01:38:07,280 --> 01:38:10,360
I'm going to stuff Glaive's body
into my bag of holding.

1330
01:38:10,760 --> 01:38:13,280
Well, Jesus.
And then hop on Mimi's back.

1331
01:38:14,040 --> 01:38:16,200
Piggyback.
The disrespect.

1332
01:38:18,040 --> 01:38:19,240
Yeah, let's go.
He's.

1333
01:38:20,000 --> 01:38:21,960
Like get in the bag, get in the
bag.

1334
01:38:22,640 --> 01:38:25,920
He's a sweetie, a little 3 year
old back kind of man and.

1335
01:38:26,720 --> 01:38:28,160
Needs.
A 43.

1336
01:38:28,280 --> 01:38:37,760
Year old kind of man, Jesus.
Before Zebulon puts Glaive in

1337
01:38:37,760 --> 01:38:41,560
his bag of holding, caste is
going to kind of like walk over

1338
01:38:41,560 --> 01:38:45,440
and close his eyes, kind of kiss
his forehead and then go

1339
01:38:45,760 --> 01:38:52,240
continue.
Oh.

1340
01:38:56,200 --> 01:38:57,720
So yeah.
I think finding a cleric for

1341
01:38:57,720 --> 01:39:00,560
Glaive is the first order
sexually.

1342
01:39:02,600 --> 01:39:05,440
Let's wake our friend up.
Yeah, let's find a cleric.

1343
01:39:06,240 --> 01:39:09,440
Of my powers.
To the church.

1344
01:39:10,880 --> 01:39:13,680
OK, so you're returning to
Syndicate headquarters?

1345
01:39:16,640 --> 01:39:19,320
Or OC says.
Church we're returning back to

1346
01:39:19,320 --> 01:39:21,440
like.
A true resurrection.

1347
01:39:23,400 --> 01:39:28,240
Maybe we try to find a temple of
Shante and see if we can find a

1348
01:39:28,240 --> 01:39:30,320
cleric who might be able to do
this.

1349
01:39:30,720 --> 01:39:32,840
Bring him back.
We should grab the diamonds

1350
01:39:32,840 --> 01:39:35,080
while we're at it for.
Sure.

1351
01:39:36,440 --> 01:39:39,920
But maybe inspect them too.
Sure, he didn't sneak anything

1352
01:39:39,920 --> 01:39:42,400
in there.
Sure, you can.

1353
01:39:42,400 --> 01:39:48,200
Go ahead and give me an
inspection check, investigation

1354
01:39:48,200 --> 01:39:54,800
check 20. 6.
There are three diamonds in this

1355
01:39:54,800 --> 01:40:01,280
pouch, each worth the.
Basically you would know as a as

1356
01:40:01,280 --> 01:40:03,680
a clerk that.
Each of these diamonds would

1357
01:40:03,680 --> 01:40:09,800
satisfy the quote UN quote cost
for a a true resurrection.

1358
01:40:11,200 --> 01:40:16,120
OK, she's going to share that
with the party.

1359
01:40:16,120 --> 01:40:18,400
You know, like, hey, this looks
legit.

1360
01:40:19,160 --> 01:40:22,720
We should probably get going.
Let's get glave up and running

1361
01:40:22,720 --> 01:40:26,200
first and then head to court
headquarters.

1362
01:40:26,280 --> 01:40:30,120
Whoa.
Agreed.

1363
01:40:30,120 --> 01:40:31,600
Did.
We lose.

1364
01:40:33,040 --> 01:40:35,400
All right, let's do it.
Michaela dropped out.

1365
01:40:36,240 --> 01:40:37,560
Nope.
Yeah, sorry.

1366
01:40:41,080 --> 01:40:43,800
All right, so you are going.
To first on the road again.

1367
01:40:43,920 --> 01:40:47,800
OK, so you're going to be
seeking out a temple or shrine

1368
01:40:47,800 --> 01:40:50,240
of Santaya, correct?
Yep.

1369
01:40:51,600 --> 01:40:54,680
OK.
I assume Mosisa would know of 1.

1370
01:40:56,880 --> 01:41:00,480
Yes, I mean, yeah.
Actually, would you know the

1371
01:41:00,480 --> 01:41:04,120
rune pattern for one?
I could teleport us there if so.

1372
01:41:09,160 --> 01:41:11,760
How would I mean?
I think that's.

1373
01:41:14,920 --> 01:41:18,000
If they have a teleportation
circle, it would have like a

1374
01:41:18,000 --> 01:41:21,440
pattern of runes to memorize in
order to use it it.

1375
01:41:23,520 --> 01:41:27,520
Makes sense to have one Spencer.
How do you want me to do this?

1376
01:41:27,520 --> 01:41:29,800
You want me to do a check on
this?

1377
01:41:29,800 --> 01:41:32,320
Or would this be just natural
knowledge you think?

1378
01:41:33,680 --> 01:41:41,960
Give me a history check on it.
Yeah. 18 You've heard that there

1379
01:41:41,960 --> 01:41:49,680
are in total, you know there to
be 5 different temples to your,

1380
01:41:50,920 --> 01:42:03,960
we'll call it religion, one each
located within the each region.

1381
01:42:04,240 --> 01:42:11,520
And I'm sorry, there are 6
temples, one in each region.

1382
01:42:11,600 --> 01:42:15,800
Now the temple that you know,
based on the location that you

1383
01:42:15,800 --> 01:42:22,520
are currently, because you're
located within the Shatter Peak,

1384
01:42:22,520 --> 01:42:31,120
it would be located within the
southwestern side about about

1385
01:42:31,120 --> 01:42:33,160
3/4 of the way there.
So underneath, if you're looking

1386
01:42:33,160 --> 01:42:38,760
at the world map underneath the
TS currently you're in the

1387
01:42:38,760 --> 01:42:49,290
northeast corner.
So at least the the reason that

1388
01:42:49,290 --> 01:42:52,770
you're in that would be where
the temple is located.

1389
01:42:52,770 --> 01:42:57,730
Now the temple, located within
the action belt, is in the

1390
01:42:57,730 --> 01:43:01,440
northwest corner.
I think the closest one would

1391
01:43:01,520 --> 01:43:04,680
probably be the easiest, but I
don't know what the the spell

1392
01:43:04,680 --> 01:43:08,520
would look like for Zebulon.
So you.

1393
01:43:08,520 --> 01:43:09,600
Yeah.
Do you recall?

1394
01:43:10,120 --> 01:43:11,720
Do you?
Recall the runes for the

1395
01:43:11,720 --> 01:43:13,680
teleportation circle of any of
them.

1396
01:43:13,880 --> 01:43:17,000
Yeah, so I apologize, I didn't
finish the the check.

1397
01:43:17,000 --> 01:43:21,680
So with the check, you know that
there are 6 temples of your

1398
01:43:21,680 --> 01:43:29,560
religion, however you don't know
which ones, if any, have any

1399
01:43:29,560 --> 01:43:34,760
teleportation circles or glyphs
or wounds that would facilitate

1400
01:43:34,760 --> 01:43:37,440
that.
So basically you would be kind

1401
01:43:37,440 --> 01:43:41,280
of going in blind.
Do you want to risk it or should

1402
01:43:41,280 --> 01:43:44,600
we try to head back to
headquarters and see if someone

1403
01:43:44,600 --> 01:43:48,840
at headquarters can do this?
Yeah, I think we travel on foot,

1404
01:43:51,080 --> 01:43:52,840
we can teleport.
Back You're going to ask who

1405
01:43:52,840 --> 01:43:57,800
killed them?
They're going to ask questions.

1406
01:43:58,760 --> 01:44:01,000
We should take them to it.
We should take Clave to a temple

1407
01:44:02,320 --> 01:44:06,640
if you want to remain.
I mean under the radar have.

1408
01:44:07,120 --> 01:44:10,200
A deep discussion.
About it Nero's killed glave.

1409
01:44:14,880 --> 01:44:22,240
Oh, OK, sure.
OK, so I'm understanding that

1410
01:44:22,240 --> 01:44:25,160
you'll return to the Whisper
Fang.

1411
01:44:28,840 --> 01:44:32,560
I'm game for that if you guys
are going from Whisper Fang to

1412
01:44:32,560 --> 01:44:34,880
then the headquarters.
Yep.

1413
01:44:36,240 --> 01:44:38,680
So the headquarters is located
within the action Belt, so it'll

1414
01:44:38,680 --> 01:44:41,280
be about a day's travel from the
Whisper Fang, which is again, is

1415
01:44:41,280 --> 01:44:43,080
everyone's bar Tavern, I should
say.

1416
01:44:45,200 --> 01:44:50,000
And let's be honest, y'all need
a little bit of rest afterwards.

1417
01:44:50,560 --> 01:44:52,640
I'm after all this.
So yeah.

1418
01:44:54,080 --> 01:44:56,200
So, yeah.
So I mean, you can absolutely

1419
01:44:56,920 --> 01:44:59,440
use teleportation to get back to
the the Whisper Fang.

1420
01:45:00,800 --> 01:45:03,520
You can deduct the gold Zebulon
from there.

1421
01:45:03,520 --> 01:45:04,680
Yep.
Let's do that.

1422
01:45:04,920 --> 01:45:06,840
If anybody wants to pitch in,
let me know.

1423
01:45:07,280 --> 01:45:14,720
Teleportation's not free 50
gold, but I confront it for this

1424
01:45:14,720 --> 01:45:18,080
one and I think it's worth it to
get back home I want.

1425
01:45:18,080 --> 01:45:20,000
To sleep with.
My pitch and then just pay for

1426
01:45:20,000 --> 01:45:27,120
it this time.
OK, actually, we just got three

1427
01:45:27,120 --> 01:45:28,920
diamonds, right?
How much are each of those

1428
01:45:28,920 --> 01:45:32,040
worth?
Wait, we might need them in the

1429
01:45:32,040 --> 01:45:32,520
future.
We're.

1430
01:45:33,280 --> 01:45:35,080
Gonna Well we need at.
Least one of them.

1431
01:45:37,160 --> 01:45:39,640
Yeah, what about the other two?
What if this happens again?

1432
01:45:41,640 --> 01:45:45,720
Gem infused inks are what you
need as the cost for the

1433
01:45:45,720 --> 01:45:51,200
teleportation circle, so I might
be able to make an abundance of

1434
01:45:51,200 --> 01:45:54,880
it with one of these gems if
it's worth thousands.

1435
01:45:54,880 --> 01:46:00,760
We just travel on foot.
If you travel 1 foot it would be

1436
01:46:00,760 --> 01:46:04,600
I got 1/2 days travel.
I wonder if I did one walk.

1437
01:46:10,320 --> 01:46:13,200
Like 2 hours.
Yeah, I would.

1438
01:46:13,200 --> 01:46:15,760
I would charge you one train.
500 feet right?

1439
01:46:16,400 --> 01:46:19,560
Yes.
I like that idea.

1440
01:46:26,520 --> 01:46:29,360
OK, so yeah, if you're going to
go that route, I would charge

1441
01:46:29,360 --> 01:46:32,200
you one travel encounter as
opposed to two.

1442
01:46:36,480 --> 01:46:39,360
So you're going to, you guys are
going to go on foot back to the

1443
01:46:39,360 --> 01:46:41,560
Whisper Fang.
I think so.

1444
01:46:41,560 --> 01:46:44,480
OK, My vote would be to do that
travel encounter as we're

1445
01:46:44,480 --> 01:46:49,120
preparing to leave because the
the spell makes us like a a

1446
01:46:49,120 --> 01:46:51,640
vapor that moves 300 feet a
turn.

1447
01:46:51,720 --> 01:46:55,040
Yeah.
So the encounter is we run away

1448
01:46:55,040 --> 01:47:00,440
at 300 feet.
So what I will say is that you

1449
01:47:00,440 --> 01:47:06,840
begin to travel without Windwalk
and then after the travel

1450
01:47:06,840 --> 01:47:09,200
encounter, you will use Windwalk
to go the rest of the way.

1451
01:47:09,760 --> 01:47:13,720
So let's have whoever wants to
roll me AD 100.

1452
01:47:17,680 --> 01:47:20,400
My last one was too good, so
someone else has to do this.

1453
01:47:21,000 --> 01:47:24,600
Asadeo as you're welcome back
all the die.

1454
01:47:25,400 --> 01:47:27,320
Yeah.
Yeah.

1455
01:47:28,680 --> 01:47:45,960
Yeah, OK.
That's. 83 83 Where is 83?

1456
01:47:45,960 --> 01:47:49,480
It's after 80.
So good job.

1457
01:47:50,200 --> 01:47:56,600
People tanks.
As you're traveling just a bit a

1458
01:47:56,600 --> 01:48:05,600
ways from the Watchtower, you
encounter a traveling tinkerer,

1459
01:48:05,680 --> 01:48:09,400
if you will, asking you to share
a meal with them.

1460
01:48:13,080 --> 01:48:16,320
Oh, of course.
I'm going to bust out a whole

1461
01:48:16,320 --> 01:48:20,080
bunch of stuff from my bag of
holding like a barrel of ale and

1462
01:48:20,080 --> 01:48:24,120
like a bunch of tankards for
everybody, set up a table, all

1463
01:48:24,120 --> 01:48:26,560
that.
Absolutely.

1464
01:48:26,560 --> 01:48:28,120
We'll share a meal with a
tinkerer.

1465
01:48:28,120 --> 01:48:31,480
That sounds amazing.
OK, poison check.

1466
01:48:31,480 --> 01:48:36,480
If you say poison, check.
Yeah, I don't.

1467
01:48:37,080 --> 01:48:39,000
Sure.
Eating food with strangers?

1468
01:48:39,080 --> 01:48:42,480
Sure.
Give me a we'll call it

1469
01:48:43,000 --> 01:48:44,880
perception check.
Medicine check.

1470
01:48:44,880 --> 01:48:47,000
No, medicine check.
Yeah, medicine check would be

1471
01:48:47,000 --> 01:48:48,680
better.
Medicine check.

1472
01:48:48,720 --> 01:48:51,240
Got it, Got it.
Can I do one of those as well?

1473
01:48:51,880 --> 01:49:00,400
Sure, go ahead.
Oh, doesn't that one it looks.

1474
01:49:01,040 --> 01:49:03,920
Incredible to you and you
immediately start eating the

1475
01:49:03,920 --> 01:49:05,520
food.
Oh.

1476
01:49:07,800 --> 01:49:09,120
So she's going to eat
immediately.

1477
01:49:09,120 --> 01:49:11,440
Yep, with a net one she's going
to start eating immediately.

1478
01:49:14,040 --> 01:49:20,040
I rolled a 17 so the so it'd be
a 24.

1479
01:49:20,080 --> 01:49:23,520
It's not poisonous, the food is
exactly what it looks like.

1480
01:49:26,240 --> 01:49:28,920
Again.
Hey Spencer, you can never be

1481
01:49:28,920 --> 01:49:30,560
too careful.
All right.

1482
01:49:30,560 --> 01:49:35,120
Hey, no, I I appreciate it.
I loved the natural one I.

1483
01:49:35,960 --> 01:49:38,160
Mean you trusted.
Miros sure look healthy.

1484
01:49:39,280 --> 01:49:41,960
What was that?
Does a tinkerer look healthy?

1485
01:49:41,960 --> 01:49:45,280
Does he look injured at all?
Yeah, no, he looks completely

1486
01:49:45,280 --> 01:49:50,240
normal.
And do you eat the food?

1487
01:49:50,240 --> 01:49:52,600
Food's good.
Amazing.

1488
01:49:53,080 --> 01:49:55,720
It's.
What a could we ask him to fix

1489
01:49:55,720 --> 01:49:58,520
our friend?
I know it's just weird, but he's

1490
01:49:58,520 --> 01:50:02,400
a tinkerer A.
Completely normal tinkerer?

1491
01:50:02,400 --> 01:50:08,440
I don't think so.
OK, yeah, so never mind.

1492
01:50:08,880 --> 01:50:16,080
You guys can go ahead and take a
the equivalent of, we'll say, 2

1493
01:50:16,080 --> 01:50:19,400
short rests if you need it.
I know that a lot of you were

1494
01:50:19,400 --> 01:50:22,480
healed at by neuros, but you
guys can take the 2 short rests

1495
01:50:22,480 --> 01:50:25,840
if you wish for the effects of
effectively sitting down, taking

1496
01:50:25,840 --> 01:50:27,040
a quick rest, and eating some
food.

1497
01:50:32,080 --> 01:50:35,760
And then from there, I'll see.
So we'll cast one walk and you

1498
01:50:35,760 --> 01:50:40,520
will arrive at the Whisper Fang
pretty soon after that.

1499
01:50:41,920 --> 01:50:44,480
Can I ask the tinkerer to make
me a contraption before he

1500
01:50:44,480 --> 01:50:50,400
leaves Something to show off at
the bar?

1501
01:50:52,200 --> 01:51:00,760
Yeah, he will make you a A
hankered that has little arms

1502
01:51:00,760 --> 01:51:06,360
and legs and can go around your
bar and kind of entertain people

1503
01:51:06,360 --> 01:51:09,080
like hello my baby, hello my
honey, hello, my right angle.

1504
01:51:10,680 --> 01:51:14,760
That is like, no joke, exactly
what I had in mind.

1505
01:51:15,080 --> 01:51:18,240
Yep, so you will.
I'll I'll get you a small boost

1506
01:51:18,240 --> 01:51:20,920
here to the Whisper Fang for
that thing.

1507
01:51:21,160 --> 01:51:26,160
Hello my honey, hello my baby.
OK now, so from there, yeah,

1508
01:51:26,160 --> 01:51:28,800
you'll arrive with the wind,
walk back at the Whisper Fang.

1509
01:51:30,920 --> 01:51:34,760
Home sweet, Home Rounder drinks
for everybody.

1510
01:51:36,080 --> 01:51:39,000
Hey, everybody in the bar heard
that as well.

1511
01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:43,120
And they go, hey.
Everybody.

1512
01:51:43,440 --> 01:51:48,800
We don't have money.
He owned the bar.

1513
01:51:48,840 --> 01:51:51,680
He made quite a lot of money
from the last time he he got his

1514
01:51:51,680 --> 01:51:54,880
income from the bar so.
I was going to say it, wasn't

1515
01:51:54,880 --> 01:51:56,360
there a festival or something
like that?

1516
01:51:56,600 --> 01:51:58,400
Yeah, we.
Had a beer festival but it went

1517
01:51:58,400 --> 01:52:00,040
great.
Yeah, it went great, totally

1518
01:52:00,040 --> 01:52:02,000
fine and nothing wrong one
happened.

1519
01:52:02,440 --> 01:52:13,600
So from there you will.
We'll just go very quickly.

1520
01:52:13,600 --> 01:52:17,440
You guys will take a long rest
from there for the night.

1521
01:52:17,440 --> 01:52:19,760
Wake up the next morning.
I assume we will be up making

1522
01:52:19,760 --> 01:52:23,080
breakfast like normal.
Oh yeah.

1523
01:52:23,320 --> 01:52:28,520
Yep.
And then so I need to understand

1524
01:52:28,520 --> 01:52:30,840
what you guys determined.
So what exactly have you

1525
01:52:30,840 --> 01:52:33,600
determined of what you're going
to do at Syndicate headquarters?

1526
01:52:36,120 --> 01:52:40,760
Bring back clay if we can.
Yes, and proceed to lie to them,

1527
01:52:42,080 --> 01:52:46,000
but Nero's not telling them.
Not lie, exactly, just.

1528
01:52:46,160 --> 01:52:49,280
Withhold information.
Yeah.

1529
01:52:49,520 --> 01:52:52,040
OK, so you'll withhold
information on the.

1530
01:52:53,840 --> 01:52:56,320
The deal that we made
specifically to force the

1531
01:52:56,320 --> 01:52:59,480
magistrate to speak the truth.
OK, we're still going to ask.

1532
01:52:59,600 --> 01:53:03,120
About the weird stuff that
Nero's was talking about though.

1533
01:53:03,600 --> 01:53:05,400
OK, you 2 agreed.
I didn't.

1534
01:53:07,880 --> 01:53:12,360
Yeah, I guess that's true.
OK if.

1535
01:53:13,160 --> 01:53:14,760
I don't know, I just don't trust
him.

1536
01:53:15,600 --> 01:53:20,280
If they go into the syndicate
because there's going to stay

1537
01:53:20,280 --> 01:53:23,880
outside, she does not want to go
in.

1538
01:53:23,880 --> 01:53:26,600
She's a vampire.
Yeah, that's what it is.

1539
01:53:26,920 --> 01:53:30,600
Yep, you're right.
No, she just does not want to go

1540
01:53:30,600 --> 01:53:34,400
in.
She wishes to stay outside in

1541
01:53:34,480 --> 01:53:38,160
free air.
Free air.

1542
01:53:39,760 --> 01:53:43,120
Is Kasdia staying in that outfit
or is she going to like switch

1543
01:53:43,120 --> 01:53:48,080
into or Kasdia?
Staying in this outfit, OK.

1544
01:53:50,440 --> 01:53:55,720
So what will happen is, I assume
that you would all set up for

1545
01:53:55,720 --> 01:53:57,560
sitting at headquarters in the
Ashton Belt, correct?

1546
01:53:59,960 --> 01:54:04,840
Yes.
OK, so forsake of time, I am not

1547
01:54:04,840 --> 01:54:06,200
going to charge you a travel
encounter.

1548
01:54:06,200 --> 01:54:10,000
It's pretty close to where you
are currently, about 1/2 day's

1549
01:54:10,000 --> 01:54:14,200
journey, similar to basically
you're crossing the border and

1550
01:54:14,200 --> 01:54:18,680
half a day's travel into the
Ashton Belt and you will arrive

1551
01:54:18,680 --> 01:54:21,640
at Syndicate headquarters from
there.

1552
01:54:21,960 --> 01:54:24,840
Kasdea will again, she'll stay
outside.

1553
01:54:25,760 --> 01:54:29,520
She doesn't like the idea of
stepping foot inside syndicate

1554
01:54:29,520 --> 01:54:34,480
headquarters with the feeling
that she has about them

1555
01:54:34,480 --> 01:54:38,760
currently.
So I mean, she'll, she'll go off

1556
01:54:38,760 --> 01:54:47,200
and maybe do some research or
some form of thing to assist you

1557
01:54:47,200 --> 01:54:55,600
with information on the
magistrate.

1558
01:54:56,160 --> 01:54:59,360
Written or the magistrate?
Correct.

1559
01:55:01,840 --> 01:55:06,920
Now for all of you going inside
of headquarters, I assume that

1560
01:55:06,920 --> 01:55:08,680
you're seeking out leadership
right away, correct?

1561
01:55:11,960 --> 01:55:15,720
I would be affirmative.
To heal Glaive, to bring him

1562
01:55:15,720 --> 01:55:16,880
back, yeah.
OK.

1563
01:55:17,120 --> 01:55:19,800
We're getting Glaive back first.
That's our top priority.

1564
01:55:19,840 --> 01:55:23,320
Who is carrying Glaive?
Me he's.

1565
01:55:23,680 --> 01:55:24,720
In.
OK.

1566
01:55:24,720 --> 01:55:28,200
He's in the bag, Sebulon.
Yeah, I guess I'm out of the

1567
01:55:28,200 --> 01:55:28,480
bag.
I'm.

1568
01:55:28,480 --> 01:55:31,520
On Mimi's back and Mimi's
carrying me and he's in.

1569
01:55:31,520 --> 01:55:32,840
My bag.
Yeah.

1570
01:55:33,200 --> 01:55:39,120
OK, cool, I love it.
Now what will occur?

1571
01:55:39,120 --> 01:55:45,520
So you will appear, you'll go to
the, let's call it the cleric's

1572
01:55:45,520 --> 01:55:52,760
temple within the syndicate
headquarters, and they will

1573
01:55:52,760 --> 01:55:54,280
greet you.
Hello, travelers.

1574
01:55:54,280 --> 01:55:55,920
What?
What can we assist you with?

1575
01:55:55,920 --> 01:56:00,400
A.
Friend was felled in battle, can

1576
01:56:00,400 --> 01:56:03,480
you bring him back?
Just pour the diamonds out on

1577
01:56:03,480 --> 01:56:05,680
the table.
We can certainly try.

1578
01:56:06,760 --> 01:56:11,880
Now where is your friend?
One moment I'm just.

1579
01:56:11,960 --> 01:56:15,120
Going to like dive into the bag
and then like pull him back.

1580
01:56:15,120 --> 01:56:21,520
Out, wait, wait, I hope your
legs as you like, head first in

1581
01:56:21,520 --> 01:56:24,360
the bag and grab on the arms and
I pull you both back out.

1582
01:56:25,440 --> 01:56:33,320
Exactly.
Can you help us?

1583
01:56:36,440 --> 01:56:40,960
First of all, I need a strength
check from Zebul.

1584
01:56:43,240 --> 01:56:47,200
Oh, that's not good.
I'm assisting I.

1585
01:56:48,840 --> 01:56:51,680
Was all I got a 15 -, 1 is 14
but.

1586
01:56:52,600 --> 01:56:54,440
Hey, that's not as good as.
I could ask for him.

1587
01:56:54,440 --> 01:56:57,160
It's.
Better than a 216?

1588
01:56:57,440 --> 01:57:01,120
It takes you Mimi, you hear kind
of from inside the bag.

1589
01:57:01,120 --> 01:57:07,440
You hear the voices that be long
ago Mimi pull and you both kind

1590
01:57:07,440 --> 01:57:11,400
of lift him out.
So yeah, ultimately you bring

1591
01:57:11,400 --> 01:57:18,280
glave into the out of the bag.
The weight of him drags on both

1592
01:57:18,280 --> 01:57:21,160
of your arms.
Metal scored organic tissue cold

1593
01:57:21,160 --> 01:57:25,440
and wrong against steel.
The quiet hum he once carried is

1594
01:57:25,560 --> 01:57:28,280
gone.
No breath, no spark, just the

1595
01:57:28,280 --> 01:57:30,840
shape of somebody who used to to
move.

1596
01:57:33,800 --> 01:57:40,640
You went to back our child.
The room kind of goes still when

1597
01:57:40,640 --> 01:57:46,080
when they see Glave and one of
the healers steps forward, but

1598
01:57:46,080 --> 01:57:52,040
he they he stops short, another
kind of just turns away.

1599
01:57:53,760 --> 01:57:59,000
Then hi syndic Syndic Relvain
arrives moments later, eyes

1600
01:57:59,200 --> 01:58:03,320
sharp, already know that this is
not going to end well.

1601
01:58:04,600 --> 01:58:09,520
You lay down on the table and
somebody whispers his name, and

1602
01:58:09,720 --> 01:58:17,800
another voice kind of answer is
flat, that that is not a man.

1603
01:58:19,480 --> 01:58:21,640
Silence kind of tightens in the
air.

1604
01:58:22,120 --> 01:58:28,080
Relvain kind of studies glave
not with fear, but with disgust.

1605
01:58:30,240 --> 01:58:35,120
I speak up, I whip around to
this person and I go, excuse me,

1606
01:58:36,880 --> 01:58:40,200
why do you look upon our fallen
comrade with disgust and with

1607
01:58:40,200 --> 01:58:42,880
vain?
He fought to protect us.

1608
01:58:44,240 --> 01:58:46,200
What?
Who are you people?

1609
01:58:46,200 --> 01:58:49,600
Who are you people to judge him
based on how he was built?

1610
01:58:49,600 --> 01:58:53,440
Based upon how he was born?
A living soul bound to the

1611
01:58:53,440 --> 01:58:57,360
construct architecture.
This is not a man.

1612
01:58:57,800 --> 01:59:02,920
This is an abomination.
And that word lands like heavy,

1613
01:59:03,920 --> 01:59:08,360
and a senior arcanist kind of
shakes their head and says

1614
01:59:09,360 --> 01:59:12,040
there's there's no resurrection
protocol for this.

1615
01:59:13,120 --> 01:59:20,560
To pull his soul would destroy
what remains.

1616
01:59:21,120 --> 01:59:26,640
And Relvain kind of raises a
hand and the room goes quiet.

1617
01:59:29,320 --> 01:59:38,760
He violates accords we hold with
life, death and consent and

1618
01:59:38,760 --> 01:59:41,760
anger begins to breakthrough
restraint.

1619
01:59:42,680 --> 01:59:46,280
And Relvain meets Mimi,
especially meets your eyes.

1620
01:59:48,600 --> 01:59:52,680
We do not bring back weapons
pretending to be people.

1621
01:59:54,640 --> 02:00:04,480
Wow, it was so right.
He was so right, people.

1622
02:00:08,160 --> 02:00:11,360
He was so right.
You people were liars, each and

1623
02:00:11,360 --> 02:00:18,200
everyone of you.
I, I, I I don't.

1624
02:00:18,320 --> 02:00:21,720
Leave out of here.
These people don't deserve to

1625
02:00:21,840 --> 02:00:24,640
gaze upon him with such disgust
as he has passed.

1626
02:00:25,800 --> 02:00:28,560
He was just a kid.
Let's take a.

1627
02:00:28,560 --> 02:00:32,040
Hold the bag of holding open so
that you can push him in

1628
02:00:33,200 --> 02:00:34,040
clearly.
I couldn't do.

1629
02:00:34,080 --> 02:00:36,960
It by myself.
Amy's going to scoop up Glaze's

1630
02:00:36,960 --> 02:00:39,560
lifeless body and is going to
walk out.

1631
02:00:39,960 --> 02:00:42,560
And as she like crosses, like
the edge of the threshold, she's

1632
02:00:42,560 --> 02:00:49,560
going to turn on and go, You are
all liars and I will remember

1633
02:00:50,120 --> 02:00:52,640
each and every one of your
faces.

1634
02:00:53,240 --> 02:00:55,120
And she's going to walk back to
the Tavern.

1635
02:00:55,880 --> 02:00:59,480
Oh, she's just going to like,
almost growl at her a little bit

1636
02:00:59,560 --> 02:01:01,920
like Mimi.
That's blasphemous.

1637
02:01:04,360 --> 02:01:09,560
These people are here to help.
They do good work, even if they

1638
02:01:09,560 --> 02:01:15,160
cannot help him.
Called him an abomination and a

1639
02:01:15,160 --> 02:01:18,160
weapon, and they called his soul
filthy.

1640
02:01:18,400 --> 02:01:22,480
Not true, not right.
I am a weapon.

1641
02:01:23,120 --> 02:01:27,160
I might be blood and bones and
flesh and fur.

1642
02:01:28,000 --> 02:01:32,520
Look in my eyes.
O Sisa, do you see a human?

1643
02:01:34,040 --> 02:01:37,320
No, you don't.
She's going to keep walking.

1644
02:01:41,400 --> 02:01:49,160
OK, so you'll leave the the
medics room, What we'll call it

1645
02:01:52,640 --> 02:01:59,360
as you leave Mimi, where is your
Ledger currently located?

1646
02:02:02,160 --> 02:02:05,360
A Ledger is currently located on
like this side of my body, like

1647
02:02:05,360 --> 02:02:10,000
a satchel I guess.
It starts to burn you.

1648
02:02:11,720 --> 02:02:13,520
I'm ripping it off and throwing
it on the ground.

1649
02:02:13,520 --> 02:02:19,160
And I'm going to keep walking.
OK.

1650
02:02:21,800 --> 02:02:31,200
Anybody else with their ledgers?
Well, I would look at my Ledger.

1651
02:02:34,600 --> 02:02:37,680
Do all of us have that that
burning feeling?

1652
02:02:37,680 --> 02:02:40,480
Or is it just Mimi?
It was just Mimi.

1653
02:02:43,440 --> 02:02:48,560
Like is there any visible sign
of that burn or is it just like

1654
02:02:48,560 --> 02:02:50,840
she feels it and she starts
throwing it off?

1655
02:02:50,960 --> 02:02:53,960
So yeah, because she threw it
off immediately, I'm not going

1656
02:02:53,960 --> 02:03:00,360
to charge her any damage.
But the rest of you who are

1657
02:03:00,360 --> 02:03:02,160
checking your ledgers, I need
everybody to give me an

1658
02:03:02,160 --> 02:03:06,880
investigation check.
Do they see Mimi like RIP it off

1659
02:03:06,880 --> 02:03:10,160
and throw it though?
I mean, I would have I'm going

1660
02:03:10,160 --> 02:03:13,080
to say yes without even a
perception check because Mimi

1661
02:03:13,080 --> 02:03:14,880
was standing effectively right
in front of them.

1662
02:03:15,160 --> 02:03:17,080
Mimi left first.
Everybody else came from behind

1663
02:03:18,000 --> 02:03:19,840
because they had None of this is
going to apply to you by the.

1664
02:03:21,600 --> 02:03:28,160
Way I know I ain't even there.
OK, good. 18.

1665
02:03:28,440 --> 02:03:30,560
I'm sorry, Mimi's high key had
enough.

1666
02:03:31,800 --> 02:03:34,400
High key had enough.
You're crashing out, kid.

1667
02:03:37,640 --> 02:03:39,280
Sorry, you said investigation,
correct?

1668
02:03:40,680 --> 02:03:47,160
That'll be a 24.
Good, Zebulon and and actually

1669
02:03:47,560 --> 02:03:49,960
Kasdea give me an investigation
check as well.

1670
02:03:51,800 --> 02:03:54,280
OK.
Hold on, I forgot to find my

1671
02:03:54,280 --> 02:03:56,120
D20.
I lost it somewhere in the dog

1672
02:03:56,120 --> 02:04:01,160
cuddle puddle.
I got 17 OK plus something.

1673
02:04:02,120 --> 02:04:09,720
All of you notice in your
ledgers a completely black page

1674
02:04:10,960 --> 02:04:13,520
within the rest of your normal
pages.

1675
02:04:16,400 --> 02:04:17,880
Would that apply to me still
though?

1676
02:04:17,880 --> 02:04:23,240
Because technically Mimi took
Kaz's Ledger like 2 episodes ago

1677
02:04:23,240 --> 02:04:26,280
and never gave it back.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you're

1678
02:04:26,280 --> 02:04:29,080
right.
So technically Kez doesn't even

1679
02:04:29,080 --> 02:04:30,680
have her Ledger.
Mimi has it.

1680
02:04:30,960 --> 02:04:35,360
OK, OK, so then this then I will
resend.

1681
02:04:35,360 --> 02:04:38,200
This will not apply to you
Sevillon and Osisa.

1682
02:04:38,200 --> 02:04:44,160
You see a black page, very black
as night page now in your

1683
02:04:44,160 --> 02:04:49,200
Ledger.
I'm going to focus on it and

1684
02:04:49,200 --> 02:04:53,160
look for any detail, perhaps
leaning into my night vision or

1685
02:04:53,160 --> 02:04:54,200
dark vision.
Sure.

1686
02:04:56,200 --> 02:04:59,840
So a seaside would assume you do
similar just kind of open it to

1687
02:04:59,840 --> 02:05:03,360
the to the page.
OK, this isn't necessarily

1688
02:05:03,360 --> 02:05:05,800
anything that we we you know,
requires any dark vision or

1689
02:05:05,800 --> 02:05:09,080
things like that.
It is a black page and now

1690
02:05:09,840 --> 02:05:15,920
written in elegant red ink.
Bright red ink, it says.

1691
02:05:16,160 --> 02:05:19,560
During deliberation concerning
revival protocols and classified

1692
02:05:19,560 --> 02:05:24,200
biological constructs, Agent
Mimi issued direct accusations

1693
02:05:24,200 --> 02:05:26,360
of dishonesty towards Syndicate
authority.

1694
02:05:26,760 --> 02:05:29,600
Statements were made publicly
inside the secured chamber

1695
02:05:29,600 --> 02:05:33,080
during an active review.
Agent Mimi is hereby placed

1696
02:05:33,080 --> 02:05:37,080
under Syndicate Center and
Syndicate.

1697
02:05:37,080 --> 02:05:44,320
What was it?
Syndicate unreliability status

1698
02:05:44,320 --> 02:05:47,080
updated to distrust for
commanding logistical purposes.

1699
02:05:47,480 --> 02:05:50,880
Access to Syndicate resources as
restricted pending a formal

1700
02:05:50,880 --> 02:05:54,560
review.
Mimi, you're going to have to

1701
02:05:54,560 --> 02:06:00,880
change your name.
What at this time, Mimi, you are

1702
02:06:00,880 --> 02:06:05,560
going to lose all effects and
bonuses of the syndicate Ledger.

1703
02:06:10,360 --> 02:06:13,040
So basically have to like
unattune it from your character.

1704
02:06:13,600 --> 02:06:15,680
Correct.
Undertune.

1705
02:06:15,680 --> 02:06:19,080
And as of right now, I mean, you
can, you can still have it in

1706
02:06:19,080 --> 02:06:24,480
your inventory if you're using
DND Beyond, but it will not like

1707
02:06:24,480 --> 02:06:27,880
the AC bonus and the the spell
bonus or you know, the spells,

1708
02:06:27,880 --> 02:06:30,080
things like that.
None of that will apply to you

1709
02:06:30,080 --> 02:06:33,720
as of right now.
You're still welcome to work at

1710
02:06:33,720 --> 02:06:36,880
the bar, but you might need to
like wear some makeup or a mask

1711
02:06:36,880 --> 02:06:38,440
or something.
We'll figure it out.

1712
02:06:39,520 --> 02:06:41,040
I'm good at the illusion magic
stuff.

1713
02:06:41,040 --> 02:06:45,480
Don't worry about it, you're
still part of the crew.

1714
02:06:49,640 --> 02:06:57,560
So are you going now?
Where are you going after this

1715
02:06:57,880 --> 02:07:00,120
again?
You've left the the medic area

1716
02:07:00,120 --> 02:07:06,120
for the syndicate.
Are you leaving the headquarters

1717
02:07:06,120 --> 02:07:09,160
completely?
Yeah.

1718
02:07:10,640 --> 02:07:15,400
Well, I mean, we should if, if
we can't bring back Glave, then

1719
02:07:15,400 --> 02:07:18,600
we should give him some kind of
burial or burial rites.

1720
02:07:18,640 --> 02:07:21,000
Leave something else.
That's what I.

1721
02:07:21,000 --> 02:07:25,680
Was about to say the syndicate
disapproves, but the syndicate

1722
02:07:25,680 --> 02:07:28,760
disapproves.
Of the fallen soldier, they

1723
02:07:28,760 --> 02:07:32,800
called him an abomination.
They said he was useless, they

1724
02:07:32,800 --> 02:07:39,080
called him a weapon.
And what am I?

1725
02:07:39,080 --> 02:07:43,360
Osisa, Can you answer?
That question for me, am I an

1726
02:07:43,360 --> 02:07:50,400
animal?
As was glate, I disagree with

1727
02:07:50,400 --> 02:07:53,760
the.
Syndicate's decision not to.

1728
02:07:53,760 --> 02:07:58,840
Revive him.
But it is beyond my power to do

1729
02:07:58,840 --> 02:08:03,160
so.
They did not tell us that we

1730
02:08:03,160 --> 02:08:07,760
cannot give him proper rights.
Of burial, would you?

1731
02:08:07,760 --> 02:08:10,240
Agree, he at least deserves that
much.

1732
02:08:11,400 --> 02:08:14,480
Hi everyone, spits a heart here
in the crit happens editing Bay.

1733
02:08:15,400 --> 02:08:17,800
So we learned very quickly in
the next. 5 minutes.

1734
02:08:17,800 --> 02:08:22,920
That Internet sucks sometimes
and you lose a bunch of audio

1735
02:08:22,920 --> 02:08:28,000
because it sounds like this, so
we're going to skip ahead about

1736
02:08:28,000 --> 02:08:30,640
5 minutes, I promise.
You didn't miss anything.

1737
02:08:31,080 --> 02:08:34,240
Yeah, that like somebody else
might be willing to bring him

1738
02:08:34,240 --> 02:08:40,760
back and.
I know I have broken.

1739
02:08:42,040 --> 02:08:50,280
By Ledger at the Syndicate.
But this final act of inhumanity

1740
02:08:50,280 --> 02:08:52,880
towards.
Creature who is most like.

1741
02:08:52,960 --> 02:09:03,960
Myself is foul.
I will expose them.

1742
02:09:03,960 --> 02:09:07,280
I don't care how long it takes.
I don't care how much people.

1743
02:09:07,480 --> 02:09:09,440
How many people?
I have to kill and slaughter.

1744
02:09:13,320 --> 02:09:17,760
Mimi, this is the syndicate.
Are you sure you want to make an

1745
02:09:17,760 --> 02:09:22,160
enemy out of a?
Group this large, this powerful?

1746
02:09:26,080 --> 02:09:30,800
Well, maybe I'll just join.
The other side for just a moment

1747
02:09:31,440 --> 02:09:33,200
in your head.
You here.

1748
02:09:34,000 --> 02:09:37,720
I always welcome new members.
You know exactly who it is.

1749
02:09:43,120 --> 02:09:46,000
She's a Step 10 think.
Price He's just listening to us

1750
02:09:46,080 --> 02:09:47,960
the whole time.
Mimi, I need you to give me a.

1751
02:09:47,960 --> 02:10:04,720
Wisdom saving throw please.
OK. 13 when you hear the voice

1752
02:10:04,720 --> 02:10:06,200
of Neros in your.
Head.

1753
02:10:07,280 --> 02:10:09,400
It almost has.
This effect.

1754
02:10:09,440 --> 02:10:13,080
Of.
You see?

1755
02:10:13,080 --> 02:10:16,400
Now in.
Front of you, Neros.

1756
02:10:17,640 --> 02:10:20,240
And you?
Just immediately go after him

1757
02:10:20,240 --> 02:10:27,680
and take a slash across the face
at him and for a moment you see

1758
02:10:27,680 --> 02:10:31,680
Neros bleeding and then you
blink and then it's just.

1759
02:10:31,960 --> 02:10:34,680
A regular.
Syndicate agent that you just

1760
02:10:34,680 --> 02:10:41,480
slashed across the face.
Holy fucking shit.

1761
02:10:44,240 --> 02:10:48,000
Mimi, what are you?
Doing I'm going to go over.

1762
02:10:48,920 --> 02:10:52,120
To heal them staring at her.
Head and it's flooded and she's

1763
02:10:52,120 --> 02:10:54,600
just thinking like in her head,
why don't I just do that?

1764
02:10:54,600 --> 02:10:55,760
I don't want to hurt.
Neros.

1765
02:10:55,760 --> 02:10:56,720
Neros might.
Be right.

1766
02:10:56,960 --> 02:10:59,360
I'm confused and I'm lost and
I'm scared.

1767
02:10:59,560 --> 02:11:01,440
Mimi, I need a wisdom saving
throw please.

1768
02:11:03,560 --> 02:11:09,200
Oh fuck.
You blast me.

1769
02:11:10,600 --> 02:11:12,320
I'm going to say. 2 bad Graves
isn't alive.

1770
02:11:12,320 --> 02:11:17,680
He gives everybody a + 5.
To say 1717 OK, yes, you, you

1771
02:11:17,680 --> 02:11:22,960
begin to you want to go back.
At a second slash and what you

1772
02:11:22,960 --> 02:11:26,880
again perceive as neuros, but as
you go to step forward, you

1773
02:11:26,880 --> 02:11:31,560
blink and you kind of do that,
that series of blinks where

1774
02:11:31,560 --> 02:11:39,040
you're just kind of coming to
and you settled down just a bit.

1775
02:11:39,040 --> 02:11:40,920
You were almost at the point of
break.

1776
02:11:45,800 --> 02:11:49,880
Oh.
Cure wounds on the agent.

1777
02:11:50,240 --> 02:11:53,360
OK, you can give him Max Max HP
with that.

1778
02:11:53,520 --> 02:11:55,880
OK, tend to.
His wounds, you know, kind of

1779
02:11:56,400 --> 02:11:57,400
stop.
The bleeding.

1780
02:11:57,400 --> 02:11:59,960
By the way, Cassidy, you'd
probably hear this commotion.

1781
02:12:00,720 --> 02:12:02,760
Oh, yeah, the cast.
Cast.

1782
02:12:02,760 --> 02:12:04,000
I was just going to say cast
comes.

1783
02:12:04,000 --> 02:12:06,760
Around the corner like what the
fuck is happening right now and

1784
02:12:06,760 --> 02:12:09,440
looks at?
Mimi with a bloody hand looks at

1785
02:12:09,440 --> 02:12:12,880
the syndicated agent, goes,
walks up to Mimi and kind of

1786
02:12:12,880 --> 02:12:14,760
takes her bloody hand and goes
it's OK.

1787
02:12:15,680 --> 02:12:19,000
And I do have a question out of
character before.

1788
02:12:19,120 --> 02:12:22,080
Before that I need an animal
handling check please.

1789
02:12:22,840 --> 02:12:27,760
Real cool.
That's a 19.

1790
02:12:28,000 --> 02:12:34,800
OK, OK, you you successfully
begin to calm Mimi down.

1791
02:12:35,960 --> 02:12:38,880
OK, cool.
So my question is, is would Kaz

1792
02:12:38,880 --> 02:12:42,320
Daya having been?
In Neuros.

1793
02:12:42,320 --> 02:12:46,960
'S clutches for UN quote.
Would she know where the.

02:12:46,960 --> 02:13:00,640
Magistrate is to.
Me history check he was ranting

1795
02:13:00,640 --> 02:13:02,920
about it all day while.
He had you tied up.

1796
02:13:03,760 --> 02:13:05,960
He wouldn't.
He wouldn't shut the hell up

1797
02:13:05,960 --> 02:13:10,080
about it.
That's a dirty. 20 OK.

Oh, where did they go?

1804
02:13:33,200 --> 02:13:36,400
I apologize for Mimi's actions,
she's going off the rails.

1805
02:13:40,600 --> 02:13:42,880
And I apologize if I harm anyone
at one point.

1806
02:13:43,160 --> 02:13:50,920
Because I don't know yet, OK.
So with a dirty 20 cast Daya.

1807
02:13:51,480 --> 02:13:57,880
You know that the magistrate is
located at the Dominion High

1808
02:13:57,880 --> 02:14:01,400
Administration Complex, located
within the ash and belt.

1809

He is a He specializes in.
Preventative governance, we'll

02:14:13,960 --> 02:14:16,240
call it.
OK.

1811
02:14:17,160 --> 02:14:18,440
You know that he's located at
the.

1812
02:14:18,440 --> 02:14:21,480

1825
02:15:18,120 --> 02:15:20,040
Man, that's.
Bleeding from the face.

1826
02:15:21,760 --> 02:15:26,880
OSIS is going to turn around and
be like I'm fine but.

1827
02:15:27,440 --> 02:15:29,760
I think.
Mimi's having some issues.

1828
02:15:30,760 --> 02:15:33,560
Mimi's fine.
She's going to say that really

1829
02:15:33,560 --> 02:15:36,760
quick and like, clipped.
Mimi's fine, let's go.

1830
02:15:37,360 --> 02:15:40,440
She's going to kind of tug on
Mimi's hand and kind of start

1831
02:15:40,440 --> 02:15:45,920
walking.
Give me another Animal Handling

1832
02:15:45,920 --> 02:15:48,520
check or I'll tell you what you.
Can give me either animal

1833
02:15:48,520 --> 02:15:56,040
handling or persuasion?
Good.

1834
02:16:01,280 --> 02:16:08,160
Theme music 21. 21 Yeah, maybe
you'll go down to. 6.

1835
02:16:09,960 --> 02:16:14,960
OK.
So Mimi, do we want to explain

1836
02:16:14,960 --> 02:16:15,760
what's happening?
With you?

1837
02:16:15,760 --> 02:16:18,280
Or is this just specific in
secret to your character?

1838
02:16:24,320 --> 02:16:30,440
It might be useful for.
OK, OK, so I kind.

1839
02:16:30,440 --> 02:16:32,360
Of heard you, you're still
you're having Internet problems

1840
02:16:32,360 --> 02:16:34,240
again.
So of my party.

1841
02:16:34,240 --> 02:16:36,760
Members, they knew what was.
Yeah.

1842
02:16:36,920 --> 02:16:39,240
So what what's happening here is
Mimi is.

1843
02:16:39,920 --> 02:16:42,000
Fighting her primal.
There we go.

1844
02:16:42,360 --> 02:16:44,559
Mimi Mimi's fighting.
Her primal instinct.

1845
02:16:46,280 --> 02:16:50,840
So she has a effectively, we
would call the tension clock

1846
02:16:51,160 --> 02:16:56,080
that certain events trigger her
primal instincts, if you will.

1847
02:16:56,879 --> 02:17:00,680
I'm not going to discuss what
those are, but that's

1848
02:17:00,680 --> 02:17:04,840
effectively what we're tracking
is she's fighting the urge to

1849
02:17:04,840 --> 02:17:08,799
just go full feral and kick the
shit out of everyone.

1850
02:17:12,120 --> 02:17:15,360
So he's on a ticking killer time
clock.

1851
02:17:16,559 --> 02:17:22,760
He's a ticking time bomb.
So perfect So.

1852
02:17:22,760 --> 02:17:29,400
You will put Glave in the bag.
You will then head out and you

1853
