1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:22,640
Welcome to Dumbgeons and Dragons! We're a D&D 5th edition actual play podcast and I'm your

2
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:27,600
dungeon master, Rust More, and with me today is Karla Johnson!

3
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:34,120
That is me, now playing Neryxious Akra, better known as Glim, a dragonborn pAlydin.

4
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:35,600
Also with me, Tom Laird.

5
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:36,600
Yeah, that's me.

6
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:37,920
I play Moot.

7
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:42,280
He is a half-orc, wild magic sorcerer.

8
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:43,280
And Amy More.

9
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:44,280
That's right.

10
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,640
Rust hasn't asked me to leave the podcast yet.

11
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:51,719
I now play a lightfoot halfling rogue named Sullivan Sleight.

12
00:00:51,719 --> 00:00:52,719
Welcome everybody.

13
00:00:52,719 --> 00:00:54,320
How's everybody feeling today?

14
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:55,320
Feeling good.

15
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:56,320
Cozy.

16
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:57,560
So near death.

17
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,000
For two reasons.

18
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,920
Number one, I'm sick in real life.

19
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,760
Number two, but I don't really feel near death.

20
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,439
These characters are just like so delicate.

21
00:01:11,439 --> 00:01:13,319
They're so squishy.

22
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:19,960
Like, oh my god, opening this character sheet was, gave me like traumatic flashbacks

23
00:01:19,960 --> 00:01:25,359
because they only have like, you know, 11 hit points to my whole life.

24
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:26,400
It's crazy.

25
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:27,400
That's two more than I have.

26
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:32,039
And I was like, I looked at it and I was like, did we battle last time?

27
00:01:32,039 --> 00:01:33,039
I thought for sure.

28
00:01:33,039 --> 00:01:34,480
I didn't remember a fight.

29
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,560
I've only talked to my two moms.

30
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,719
It was a real knockdown dragon chat though.

31
00:01:40,719 --> 00:01:42,560
Oh my goodness.

32
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,680
Yes, we are playing some new characters today.

33
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,280
The characters that were introduced in episode 74.

34
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:53,960
And if you're new here, we played Dumbgeons and Dragons and we just finished a big

35
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,840
Rise of Tiamat arc and now we're playing new characters.

36
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:03,760
So you get to know those characters along with us, along with us as well.

37
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,040
No, that's not how you say that.

38
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,480
You get to learn about those characters along with us.

39
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:09,800
That's a better way to say that.

40
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,040
Guys, we're terrified.

41
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:15,600
It's like we're doing it for the first time ever because we've been

42
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,520
playing these characters for like, what?

43
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,280
Three plus years.

44
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:20,840
Yeah, more than three years.

45
00:02:20,879 --> 00:02:24,520
It's it's like wearing the same clothes every day and then someone

46
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,560
coming along and being like, new human wardrobe.

47
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,599
Here's your fursuit.

48
00:02:29,599 --> 00:02:32,000
And then you're going with this.

49
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,159
But then you have to live in a fursuit and you just don't know.

50
00:02:35,159 --> 00:02:36,400
You don't look like yourself.

51
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:37,800
You don't know how to act anymore.

52
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,039
It seems like a very specific example.

53
00:02:40,039 --> 00:02:43,000
Has someone come by and given you a fursuit to wear?

54
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:44,920
It is very specific.

55
00:02:44,920 --> 00:02:47,080
This analogy got away from me.

56
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,599
Or like maybe like starting a new job where you don't know.

57
00:02:49,599 --> 00:02:50,919
Sure. That's it.

58
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,039
I mean, I like Amy's fursuit.

59
00:02:53,039 --> 00:02:56,199
Also a good more like universally applicable.

60
00:02:56,199 --> 00:02:58,519
Like everyone could really relate to what she was saying.

61
00:02:58,519 --> 00:03:02,159
Not everyone has a job, Carla, but we could all have fursuit.

62
00:03:02,159 --> 00:03:03,519
This is true.

63
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,199
So I don't know where we were going with that.

64
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,159
New characters, new characters, scary times, scary times.

65
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:15,519
For those of you who have been with us for for 84 episodes now,

66
00:03:16,159 --> 00:03:19,560
the the the OG characters, they'll be back.

67
00:03:20,079 --> 00:03:23,079
But we're going to start this thing off with these new characters.

68
00:03:23,519 --> 00:03:27,439
It's going to be a little bit of a time, a backwards time step.

69
00:03:27,799 --> 00:03:32,519
Oh, and then we'll catch up and then we'll it'll all make sense.

70
00:03:33,039 --> 00:03:35,759
I've planned it out in my head and those things always work.

71
00:03:36,159 --> 00:03:37,319
Always. Always.

72
00:03:37,319 --> 00:03:39,240
It will be hard, though, because we'll have to like

73
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,439
not know things that we already know.

74
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,400
You know how good we are at separating player

75
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:45,759
knowledge and character knowledge.

76
00:03:45,759 --> 00:03:47,560
Don't worry about that. You're in a different place.

77
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,359
We also forget a whole lot of stuff.

78
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,760
So there's a good chance. That's true.

79
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,760
It's true. Something that happens that we haven't got to yet,

80
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,000
but we have a Patreon, Patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast

81
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,480
where when you join us, you get an episode dedicated to you.

82
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,760
Like today's episode is dedicated to Laurie Carrion.

83
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,400
Thank you, Laurie. Thanks, Laurie.

84
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:09,840
You rock.

85
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,200
You want to join us on Patreon, Patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast.

86
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,720
We'll talk about that more a little bit later.

87
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,960
But in the meantime, fuck it. Let's play D&D.

88
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:38,360
Where we left off was with our good friend Glim.

89
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,360
We left you with your mama,

90
00:04:43,879 --> 00:04:46,240
Bean, and you were on your way

91
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,759
and had made it to a temple of Bahamut.

92
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,960
As you walk up the steps to the temple,

93
00:04:54,319 --> 00:04:58,960
you begin feeling nearly a physical pull,

94
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:04,560
almost as if something is drawing you towards the large wooden doors.

95
00:05:06,319 --> 00:05:09,600
As you enter, following your mama,

96
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,920
you see seated at the back of the room, an older human male,

97
00:05:15,840 --> 00:05:20,480
long gray hair tied into a half messy ponytail

98
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,199
kneeled over in silent prayer.

99
00:05:24,199 --> 00:05:28,080
From above, you hear the call of small birds.

100
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:33,400
And when you look, you see only a silhouette of them

101
00:05:33,759 --> 00:05:36,400
in the light through the open vented roof.

102
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,639
You look down into the front of the cathedral

103
00:05:42,639 --> 00:05:48,639
and you see a seemingly humble set up there that opens up for you.

104
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,360
Pews hand carved out of weirwood.

105
00:05:53,199 --> 00:05:57,360
And within you sense a divine and vibrating resonance

106
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:02,919
coming from the pews leading or guiding you up to the front of the cathedral.

107
00:06:04,159 --> 00:06:07,240
What is Glim feeling or thinking, right?

108
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,199
I think like a general sense of awe.

109
00:06:11,199 --> 00:06:14,920
I mean, she certainly has been brought up to worship Bahamut.

110
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:19,279
So this is like would already be like a very powerful experience

111
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,000
because I think she has never been to this temple, correct?

112
00:06:22,959 --> 00:06:25,399
I think that's what we said last time.

113
00:06:25,399 --> 00:06:28,719
So this is already like a very powerful experience of a like,

114
00:06:29,079 --> 00:06:32,959
you know, deeply religious person visiting a religious place.

115
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:39,079
And I think particularly like she has those multicolored scales.

116
00:06:39,079 --> 00:06:42,399
And I think her platinum scales particularly

117
00:06:42,399 --> 00:06:47,919
are like she feels like she can feel them more in this place.

118
00:06:50,599 --> 00:06:55,240
Your train of thought is broken as your mama touches your arm,

119
00:06:55,759 --> 00:06:57,959
bringing your attention back to the front

120
00:06:58,519 --> 00:07:01,639
where you are surprised that you are now.

121
00:07:02,159 --> 00:07:05,279
You've made it through the entire cathedral, kind of

122
00:07:06,199 --> 00:07:08,599
the entire walk washed over you.

123
00:07:10,079 --> 00:07:16,599
Standing before you at the front is a hooded figure in deep blue robes

124
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,240
worn to time and fraying around the edges of their platinum threads.

125
00:07:23,079 --> 00:07:27,879
You hear a voice come from below the hood.

126
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,839
You can't see a face.

127
00:07:30,839 --> 00:07:35,799
Tell me, is this person going to be someone you know or someone you don't know?

128
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:42,639
Oh, um, I honestly thought it was going to be like a switch them up

129
00:07:42,639 --> 00:07:44,960
or this person's going to like pretend they're the priest.

130
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,639
And then the guy in the back is going to be like, just kidding, it is me.

131
00:07:47,639 --> 00:07:51,199
I don't know why he is Shakespeare in love, you know, with the French prince

132
00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:53,120
and pretends he's not the prince.

133
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,080
Why? I don't know.

134
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:56,040
Because it's fine.

135
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,080
15 years ago, I saw that movie, apparently top of mind.

136
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,519
But I would say this is not someone I know. OK.

137
00:08:04,519 --> 00:08:10,799
The person lowers their hood, and it is a human female.

138
00:08:11,479 --> 00:08:13,799
She has grayed hair.

139
00:08:13,799 --> 00:08:19,519
She's got lots of laugh lines and deep wrinkles in her in and around her eyes.

140
00:08:20,319 --> 00:08:23,919
And she says, hello, my child.

141
00:08:25,079 --> 00:08:31,079
You must have a hundred questions and I will answer as many as I can.

142
00:08:31,479 --> 00:08:37,360
But first, who do you believe you are?

143
00:08:40,199 --> 00:08:43,480
Well, I mean, I don't know if this is really true,

144
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:48,120
but I've always in my clan been told that, you know, I was a descendant,

145
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,439
a very, very, very far removed descendant of Bahamut.

146
00:08:51,439 --> 00:08:55,559
But I don't know if that's that seems like it can't really be true.

147
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,079
It seems actually a bit obnoxious to think that.

148
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:03,160
But that's always what I've been told.

149
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:11,680
As you kind of trail off there, a gentle smile crosses her face.

150
00:09:12,560 --> 00:09:20,600
And she says, my child, you are a child of Bahamut.

151
00:09:22,759 --> 00:09:25,360
Not a distant relative.

152
00:09:26,279 --> 00:09:29,440
Not a long line faded.

153
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:36,080
You are a direct descendant of Bahamut himself.

154
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:48,840
And I look at Mama, who is with me, say, so are

155
00:09:50,159 --> 00:09:54,519
are you a descendant of Bahamut too, is our whole family?

156
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,519
And I look back at the lady and like,

157
00:10:00,399 --> 00:10:04,600
your mama who had taken a couple of steps back once you had reached the front,

158
00:10:05,159 --> 00:10:06,800
she kind of clears her throat.

159
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,480
She said, no, no, no.

160
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:21,080
You while your mom and I are your are your parents,

161
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:37,400
And you arrived to our village when you were very, very young, and we took it upon ourselves

162
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:42,040
to give you a safe home.

163
00:10:42,039 --> 00:10:54,919
It was made apparent to us that you had gifts and powers, not powers, but you had a draw

164
00:10:54,919 --> 00:11:10,719
to help people, and your mom wanted to protect you because of how, I don't want to say naive,

165
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:22,960
but how naive you can sometimes be towards some of the dangers of the world.

166
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:29,279
So you told me that there was a dream, that I was a protector.

167
00:11:29,279 --> 00:11:35,600
Was there really a dream, or have a note, you know, pinned to my swaddling clothes or

168
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:36,600
what?

169
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:47,560
The man who brought you to us, he told us that you were in line to be the world's next

170
00:11:47,560 --> 00:11:51,040
savior.

171
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,320
How do you believe someone who says that?

172
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:54,399
I don't know.

173
00:11:54,399 --> 00:12:04,360
But there was a dream, as I had said, that later came as you got older, and it

174
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:12,919
became very clear that there was more going on than what we had thought, someone just

175
00:12:12,919 --> 00:12:19,320
bringing you to us, but following what your mom wanted to do, we protected you.

176
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:28,560
We separated the village from all but necessary engagements and trade, shielded your view

177
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:37,360
of some of the wrongdoings, which is increasingly harder in today's times.

178
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,560
I mean, I'm stunned, I guess.

179
00:12:41,560 --> 00:12:48,760
A lot of information, my little delicate, not that young, 25-year-old life, but still.

180
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:56,480
I just have, I have so many questions, and I look back at the woman and say, did

181
00:12:56,519 --> 00:13:01,440
you, like, did you deliver me to the village?

182
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:02,920
Should I be here?

183
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,360
I mean, I guess, where are my manners?

184
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,960
What's your name?

185
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:14,560
My name is Sirma, Sirma Shora.

186
00:13:14,560 --> 00:13:23,480
I was not the one to bring you to the village, but I was designated to be the

187
00:13:23,519 --> 00:13:34,600
one to help guide you once the decision or the call was put out for you to begin your

188
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:43,159
trials as a bastion to Bahamut.

189
00:13:43,159 --> 00:13:48,080
Well, I mean, it seems like we're wasting time.

190
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:52,600
Honestly, this bard came and he told us that Tiamat might be rising and the whole

191
00:13:52,639 --> 00:13:54,759
kingdom is in total disarray.

192
00:13:54,759 --> 00:14:03,560
And because I was so sheltered, I feel overwhelmed by all of this information.

193
00:14:03,560 --> 00:14:12,680
But I want to help and I want to, I guess, live up to my destiny.

194
00:14:12,680 --> 00:14:20,519
Seems like a crazy thing to say out loud, but that's what I want to do.

195
00:14:20,519 --> 00:14:23,039
It feels like the right thing to do.

196
00:14:23,039 --> 00:14:24,360
Being here feels right.

197
00:14:27,439 --> 00:14:30,919
Your time is coming soon.

198
00:14:33,079 --> 00:14:42,000
The troubles that are in the world now are being dealt with and will be dealt

199
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:47,559
with. We feel that they are in capable hands.

200
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:52,680
Your call is for something coming later.

201
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,760
What that is, we don't know yet.

202
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:06,280
Those who fight for Faerun and for Toril and for the world at large are already

203
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:12,680
out there making sure that there is something to fight for later.

204
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:15,800
So what happens now?

205
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,440
Do I? I feel like I don't know anything.

206
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,800
Will you teach me how to help the world?

207
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:30,080
I will do my best to set you on a good foot.

208
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,040
There is a lot to talk about and a lot to learn.

209
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:42,440
And before we send you off, we will do as much of that as we can.

210
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:44,840
Dope.

211
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:46,320
There it is.

212
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:59,440
Sullivan Slate, where we left you last, you were running away from the

213
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:00,360
cult of the dragon.

214
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:08,400
You had just been asked to do something that you deemed far beyond

215
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,800
your capabilities.

216
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,200
My heart could not do it ethically.

217
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,720
You ran into the forest.

218
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,160
How far did you run and where did you go?

219
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:30,200
Well, I don't think Sullivan Slate knows where he went because North,

220
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,640
South, East, West, I think those are all very, he's like more of a

221
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:35,200
landmark kind of guy.

222
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:40,680
So he just started running away, away from where that village was in

223
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:47,000
the opposite direction as far as his little like halfling legs would

224
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:47,560
carry him.

225
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:52,000
He only stopped once he could go no further.

226
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,960
He physically could not run anymore.

227
00:16:54,440 --> 00:17:00,480
You wake up, leery-eyed, your head hurts.

228
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:02,280
Am I hungover?

229
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:03,200
Maybe.

230
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:03,760
I don't know.

231
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:04,440
You could be.

232
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:05,080
You know what?

233
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,080
It's entirely possible that you are hungover.

234
00:17:08,120 --> 00:17:09,400
I won't make that decision for you.

235
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:10,320
I'm definitely not.

236
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:16,440
The cult did not allow footmen such as myself to arm myself with liquor.

237
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:17,080
Fair enough.

238
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:23,560
So you wake up, you're bleary-eyed, your head hurts, your back is very sore.

239
00:17:24,759 --> 00:17:33,000
And as you clear the haze from your vision, you see cold stone dimly

240
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:38,800
illuminated by light coming in through bars of a small window on a wall.

241
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:45,240
I panic and scramble and back myself up to the closest wall so that there's

242
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,840
nothing that can come at me from behind me.

243
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:55,600
You do so and you hit cold stone as you fall off the bench that you're on.

244
00:17:56,120 --> 00:18:01,640
You're looking around and you see that you are in a small cell, plank

245
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:08,440
wood bench in front of you, a bucket in the corner and several other

246
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:13,279
cells that you can see, but from what you can tell, only one other

247
00:18:13,279 --> 00:18:15,160
person, a few cells away.

248
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:21,039
Otherwise it is a very cold and damp prison.

249
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:27,240
Hey, hey, hey.

250
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,120
He doesn't appear to, to move.

251
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,320
Can I see if it's a man?

252
00:18:35,039 --> 00:18:36,480
Um, it looks like a man.

253
00:18:36,519 --> 00:18:36,759
Yeah.

254
00:18:36,759 --> 00:18:37,400
Human man?

255
00:18:37,519 --> 00:18:37,759
Yeah.

256
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:38,960
Human man.

257
00:18:39,839 --> 00:18:43,519
Hey, you, gate guy.

258
00:18:44,519 --> 00:18:45,839
Do I, is there anything around me?

259
00:18:46,879 --> 00:18:47,119
No.

260
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:48,519
Anything I can throw at him?

261
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:50,279
Is there anything inside my bucket?

262
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:53,319
Anything I can splash at?

263
00:18:54,079 --> 00:18:55,519
Nothing, nothing yet.

264
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:56,200
Nothing yet.

265
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:56,879
All right.

266
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,359
Um, yeah, no, there's nothing, nothing in there.

267
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:03,920
And it appears that you have been all of your items here to be no

268
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,720
longer with you, have basic clothes.

269
00:19:08,759 --> 00:19:18,200
Um, perception check 13, um, as you're panicking and falling over

270
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:25,680
to the, and who you're sure is sleeping or just can't really see

271
00:19:25,799 --> 00:19:28,240
much sign of movement in general.

272
00:19:28,799 --> 00:19:32,519
You begin to hear the sound of street noise outside the window.

273
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,279
Uh, so the window is located above the bench.

274
00:19:36,599 --> 00:19:36,879
Yep.

275
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:37,480
Okay.

276
00:19:37,839 --> 00:19:43,720
Um, I quickly and nimbly run up, jump on the bench and, and try

277
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,599
to reach for the bars of the window.

278
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:50,759
You do so, and you look outside and you see a, it's, it's daytime.

279
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,839
Um, you're not sure what time of day it is exactly, but it's a very busy

280
00:19:54,839 --> 00:19:58,680
street and you don't really recognize many landmarks around you.

281
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:03,359
There looks to be a long narrow street that is main there.

282
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,279
Um, there's a big open courtyard down at the end of one way and you

283
00:20:07,279 --> 00:20:09,879
can't quite see around the corner going the other way.

284
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:15,440
There are lots of people, elves, humans, half orcs, halflings, all

285
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,359
kind of wandering about far away.

286
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,200
Am I from those wandering people?

287
00:20:19,599 --> 00:20:20,519
That's super far.

288
00:20:20,559 --> 00:20:21,279
I yelled at them.

289
00:20:21,279 --> 00:20:22,000
Could they hear me?

290
00:20:22,079 --> 00:20:22,519
Let's try.

291
00:20:25,519 --> 00:20:27,480
Most of them don't pay much attention.

292
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,119
A couple of people kind of look over and as they keep walking.

293
00:20:30,519 --> 00:20:32,279
Hey, what, what city is this?

294
00:20:32,399 --> 00:20:33,319
What town is this?

295
00:20:34,639 --> 00:20:36,119
Somebody tell me where I am.

296
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:42,760
Uh, a small child, um, kind of sees and she says, it's never wintered prisoner.

297
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,760
Hey, thanks.

298
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:52,440
And you see her mother kind of usher her along and give you the foul.

299
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:59,720
I kind of, I let go and I dropped back onto the bench and I sit down

300
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:05,920
and try to do a bit of mental math based on where I was and how close I

301
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:11,440
knew never winter to be, you know, never winter wasn't between 500 and

302
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:17,080
600 miles, a thousand kilometers, far ways away.

303
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:23,200
And there's no way that I ran most of the way 800 kilometers to, um, to

304
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:27,000
never winter, so I must have been picked up along the way.

305
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:28,840
I, I look at the walls.

306
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:34,840
Is there any markings or carvings or scratches or anything from these

307
00:21:34,839 --> 00:21:41,119
tenants, tenants, the previous tenants of this, of this prison cell?

308
00:21:41,279 --> 00:21:45,000
Um, yeah, it was a short-term rental as you try Airbnb ever.

309
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:45,759
I give it one.

310
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:47,039
Um, yes.

311
00:21:47,039 --> 00:21:51,240
You see there's no standard prison kind of fair.

312
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:52,319
There's tally marks.

313
00:21:52,519 --> 00:21:57,240
Um, far who has a small dick scratched on there somewhere.

314
00:21:57,599 --> 00:21:57,959
Yeah.

315
00:21:58,159 --> 00:21:58,519
Yeah.

316
00:21:58,679 --> 00:21:58,919
Yeah.

317
00:21:58,959 --> 00:22:02,559
Far who has a small dick for a good time.

318
00:22:02,879 --> 00:22:05,919
Call out down the street is also written there.

319
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,919
But nothing helpful that I can see on these walls.

320
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:15,359
Okay.

321
00:22:15,519 --> 00:22:17,839
I go over and I inspect the walk.

322
00:22:17,919 --> 00:22:18,399
Okay.

323
00:22:18,559 --> 00:22:20,359
Um, make an investigation check.

324
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:22,759
Bye.

325
00:22:24,039 --> 00:22:30,639
Um, it looks like a standard prison lock, um, something that you have

326
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,000
picked in the past, but you don't appear to have your tools on you.

327
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,120
Is my hair still up?

328
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:36,840
No.

329
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,920
Oh, I'm a sneaky athlete and I always have Bobby my hair.

330
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,880
Cause you can't achieve a proper man bun without them.

331
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:52,200
Um, I try my hand again at calling to my buddy, my maybe dead,

332
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:53,120
maybe not dead buddy.

333
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:54,840
Hey, you dead?

334
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,280
He coughs.

335
00:22:57,759 --> 00:23:01,200
That's the sound someone makes when they're alive.

336
00:23:02,799 --> 00:23:03,399
Hey mister.

337
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:09,920
Kind of turns over and then you hear the door down at the end of the cells.

338
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:11,240
Farthest away from you.

339
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,720
It opens up and says, be quiet in here.

340
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:14,759
Where's here?

341
00:23:15,879 --> 00:23:16,680
You're in prison.

342
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:19,720
Hey, come over here.

343
00:23:19,759 --> 00:23:21,319
You seem like a very intelligent man.

344
00:23:21,319 --> 00:23:22,079
We need to speak.

345
00:23:23,079 --> 00:23:29,159
A well armored soldier enters the room, he's walking closer to your cell.

346
00:23:29,399 --> 00:23:34,039
It stops about half a cell away from the entrance to yours.

347
00:23:35,919 --> 00:23:36,639
What's your name?

348
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:39,599
I don't answer questions.

349
00:23:40,879 --> 00:23:42,079
Oh, do you don't know your name?

350
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:44,079
I know my name.

351
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,079
I don't have to tell the likes of you.

352
00:23:46,159 --> 00:23:47,720
Oh, I never said you had to.

353
00:23:47,759 --> 00:23:48,359
Sorry, buddy.

354
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,559
My name is Sullivan's light and you are?

355
00:23:52,839 --> 00:23:54,079
Dinner's not for a while.

356
00:23:54,639 --> 00:23:55,799
Oh, what's for dinner?

357
00:23:57,279 --> 00:23:58,439
Oh, better question.

358
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,240
Do you know why I'm here?

359
00:24:02,319 --> 00:24:09,079
I was just camping, like probably 200 miles, I don't know, away from here.

360
00:24:09,079 --> 00:24:10,519
And I just woke up here.

361
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,439
You were camping, then stealing.

362
00:24:14,639 --> 00:24:21,359
Oh, and then you got arrested, put up a fight, and then you ended up here.

363
00:24:23,079 --> 00:24:24,480
That doesn't sound like me.

364
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,199
I mean, that's, that's what's on the report.

365
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,079
Show me whose ass I kept.

366
00:24:31,439 --> 00:24:32,879
I mean, I said I got into a fight.

367
00:24:32,879 --> 00:24:34,159
I said you put up a fight.

368
00:24:34,199 --> 00:24:36,679
I did not say you kicked someone's ass.

369
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,879
It was implied with a tone of awe in your voice.

370
00:24:41,679 --> 00:24:43,799
So dinner, what is for dinner?

371
00:24:45,199 --> 00:24:46,079
Same as every night.

372
00:24:47,079 --> 00:24:47,480
Rule.

373
00:24:48,559 --> 00:24:49,839
Well, how would I have known that?

374
00:24:49,839 --> 00:24:51,279
This is my first night here.

375
00:24:51,279 --> 00:24:54,000
I just assume people know what they eat in prison, and it's not good.

376
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,720
So like, who's in charge here?

377
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,039
Just the warden?

378
00:25:01,039 --> 00:25:05,960
I mean, I'm in charge right now because I'm highest ranking officer here.

379
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:07,480
Of course you are.

380
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,759
So what would it take for me to get a meeting with the warden?

381
00:25:12,519 --> 00:25:13,319
Miracle.

382
00:25:13,879 --> 00:25:16,680
Hey, you seem like a miracle man.

383
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,879
Can I make like a charisma check or something?

384
00:25:22,279 --> 00:25:26,200
I'm, I'm acting very charismatic, but I don't.

385
00:25:26,319 --> 00:25:26,960
Yeah, thank you.

386
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:32,000
Either are you going for persuasion or deception?

387
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:36,480
I think I'm going for probably persuasion.

388
00:25:37,759 --> 00:25:39,680
OK, I'm trying to get him to do what I want.

389
00:25:41,799 --> 00:25:45,599
16. What kind of miracle, my man,

390
00:25:46,279 --> 00:25:49,039
can you make happen for me to get me to see the warden?

391
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,559
I only need five minutes of the fine man or woman's time.

392
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,759
Well, the warden isn't here right now.

393
00:25:56,759 --> 00:26:01,000
But I mean, I could I could get them to maybe

394
00:26:02,079 --> 00:26:06,440
see if they could talk to you.

395
00:26:06,599 --> 00:26:10,000
You know what? Everyone here is wrong about you.

396
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:15,279
You, the man, don't you even think about what other people are saying

397
00:26:15,279 --> 00:26:17,839
because you know what's going down and I appreciate you.

398
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:19,320
What was your name?

399
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:20,920
I didn't say my name.

400
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,600
I know. I just wish I knew because I feel like we're really bonding.

401
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,120
How did you know they're talking about me if I didn't say my name?

402
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:28,960
Well, they were talking about the big,

403
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,760
handsome, in head of the head of this place guy.

404
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:35,440
That's not you.

405
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,880
I mean, sounds like you to me.

406
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:39,880
It's definitely not Jerry.

407
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,800
Oh, no, fuck Jerry.

408
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:42,840
No, don't.

409
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,760
Well, no, I mean, not even on my worst day.

410
00:26:46,319 --> 00:26:49,000
But well, thank you very much.

411
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,000
Miraculous stranger.

412
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,839
You're welcome. Sullivan's light.

413
00:26:53,839 --> 00:26:57,960
What's he been saying about ramblings of a crazy man?

414
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,519
Just don't even I'll beat him later.

415
00:27:01,599 --> 00:27:03,400
He begins walking out.

416
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,000
I wait till he leaves and he shuts the door behind.

417
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,879
Yo, dude, look, listen, I'm super sorry,

418
00:27:08,879 --> 00:27:10,720
but what's probably going to happen to you later?

419
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,400
That wasn't my intention.

420
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:13,440
Got away from me.

421
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:14,160
Got away from me.

422
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:15,120
You could have talked to me, though.

423
00:27:15,120 --> 00:27:16,200
You could have talked to me.

424
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,240
Good Lord, you talk a lot.

425
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:22,040
Yeah, grumbles, and he's not turning turning to you directly.

426
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,600
So what are you in here for?

427
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,840
Apparently, I was selling goods,

428
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,759
not at the correct value

429
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,640
deemed by the officers in charge.

430
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:38,680
No rinky ding operation.

431
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,920
I was told that I was stealing and then got into a fight

432
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:43,600
and kick some big ass.

433
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:44,920
And then I woke up here.

434
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:46,480
And I don't remember any of that.

435
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,519
I mean, I think he said you got into a fight.

436
00:27:48,519 --> 00:27:49,440
No, I heard what he said.

437
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,840
Hmm. OK.

438
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:53,759
Well, Sullivan's light.

439
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,600
And you are?

440
00:27:59,120 --> 00:28:01,840
And it sits up and turns and lets it choose.

441
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:04,480
His name's Murph.

442
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:06,440
Nice to meet you, Murph.

443
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,880
Murrv. Oh, Murrv.

444
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,200
Sorry, sorry, Murrv.

445
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,600
Yeah, I think we're going to be the best of friends, you and I.

446
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:13,799
I think it's going to be good.

447
00:28:13,799 --> 00:28:17,240
How how awful is this dinner around here?

448
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,759
Her rule rhymes with cool.

449
00:28:20,759 --> 00:28:22,600
Yeah, they mix it with fish heads.

450
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,400
Oh, so it's not super great.

451
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:26,799
It's all right.

452
00:28:26,799 --> 00:28:29,319
I'm Ovo Pesco lactose.

453
00:28:29,319 --> 00:28:31,680
I don't know what that means.

454
00:28:32,519 --> 00:28:34,759
I mean, I'm a fisherman, so

455
00:28:36,120 --> 00:28:39,039
I think I'd like fish heads, but not the way they make them.

456
00:28:39,519 --> 00:28:43,079
It's all in the attitude, my friend.

457
00:28:43,079 --> 00:28:45,000
All in the attitude.

458
00:28:55,039 --> 00:28:57,240
Welcome back to the middle, everybody.

459
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:58,200
How's it going?

460
00:28:58,200 --> 00:28:59,079
You made it through.

461
00:28:59,079 --> 00:29:00,720
You made it through the long month.

462
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,119
What we do now is we just say thank you for listening

463
00:29:03,119 --> 00:29:04,559
and thank you for being here.

464
00:29:04,559 --> 00:29:08,399
And hopefully you're enjoying the beginning of the new season

465
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,240
because it's going to be a wild ride.

466
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:12,680
So wild.

467
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,880
And we're doing a sweet contest to kick off the new season

468
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:20,080
where you can win a copy of Ghosts of Saltmarsh,

469
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:24,080
the new adventure module from Dumbgeons and Dragons.

470
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:25,160
Wizards of the Coast.

471
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:26,320
What do you have to do?

472
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:30,680
What we would love is if you could tell people about us.

473
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,680
And if you do that and tell us about it,

474
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:35,960
then maybe you can win the school new module.

475
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:36,960
Absolutely.

476
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:41,200
You can share a link to the show or to a specific episode

477
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:42,039
if you have a favorite.

478
00:29:42,039 --> 00:29:43,200
Maybe it's this one.

479
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:44,680
Maybe this is your first one.

480
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,039
So you share it to Twitter using the hashtag

481
00:29:47,039 --> 00:29:51,840

486
00:30:04,559 --> 00:30:06,319
And Russ, what is our Facebook page?

487
00:30:06,359 --> 00:30:09,559
Facebook.com slash DumbDragon Podcast.

488
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,559
Can I just say you should do it right now

489
00:30:11,559 --> 00:30:15,359
because you're probably like literally right now listening on a device

490
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:17,720
where you could do this thing just right now.

491
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,399
It'll take like 30 seconds and we would appreciate it so much.

492
00:30:20,399 --> 00:30:21,839
And maybe a prize.

493
00:30:21,839 --> 00:30:26,159
So all of the love in our hearts and then also maybe another prize.

494
00:30:26,279 --> 00:30:27,359
So that's pretty good.

495
00:30:27,359 --> 00:30:29,759
That's two prizes. So good.

496
00:30:29,759 --> 00:30:32,599
The contest is going on to the end of the month, but please do it now.

497
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:34,240
Thank you very much for listening.

498
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,119
Hope you enjoy the rest of the episode.

499
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:37,600
We're back.

500
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:39,960
We're not going anywhere for 83 more episodes.

501
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,880
I don't know if that's an arbitrary number, but OK.

502
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:46,240
I mean, very specific.

503
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:47,400
So we did last season.

504
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,080
Enjoy the rest of the episode.

505
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,480
We'll we'll talk to you talk to you soon.

506
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:06,000
Moot, we last left you leaving home.

507
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:08,200
Yeah.

508
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,760
Running away, kind of like for the good of everyone, though,

509
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:17,840
for noble reasons, yeah, no, it was definitely for for for good reason.

510
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,920
What is it that Moot is going in search of?

511
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:26,280
Moot wants to find some sort of either

512
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:31,280
teacher or some sort of magic user

513
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:35,160
to help him, like, get a handle on his situation.

514
00:31:35,759 --> 00:31:40,200
With your village and your family, you've traveled

515
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:46,040
reasonably far, but you have heard that there are

516
00:31:46,519 --> 00:31:50,000
teachers in several of the larger cities,

517
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:55,519
but the nearest one to your village would have been Neverwinter.

518
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,320
Well, that's where I would have went.

519
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:01,880
It is a several day, if not week journey.

520
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:08,880
And you set off from High Forest and you caught a lift on some caravans

521
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:14,000
and surprisingly didn't run into too much on the road,

522
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:18,440
which you were told is something to be thankful for.

523
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:23,840
After a couple of 10 days journey, make it to

524
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:28,120
the gates at Neverwinter, one of the northern gates,

525
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:34,760
and you hop off the caravan and set off into the city.

526
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:39,880
And you along the way, you heard that there were

527
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:43,200
tales of Neverwinter as the city of wonders.

528
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,560
There's a lot of artificers and wizards.

529
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:51,560
And before the plague, Spellplague was one of the

530
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:55,440
highest looked upon cities in all of favor.

531
00:32:55,920 --> 00:33:00,080
It has since come back to near what it was before,

532
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,920
with some minor differences.

533
00:33:03,559 --> 00:33:07,480
An earthquake tore apart part of the city in the southern

534
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,759
southern southeastern quadrant.

535
00:33:09,759 --> 00:33:16,480
There is a floating tower that hovers above that showed up mysteriously

536
00:33:16,799 --> 00:33:19,720
one day and is now considered a beacon of hope.

537
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:26,519
You set into the city and it is about midday.

538
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,799
There are packed streets, lots of people.

539
00:33:29,799 --> 00:33:35,759
And you are free to do what Moot would do.

540
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:42,559
Well, Moot, is there any sort of guard or like maybe a like

541
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,960
stop here for information about the city kiosk that he could maybe attend?

542
00:33:47,079 --> 00:33:52,279
There's we'll say there's there's a there's a hospitaling center of sorts.

543
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,360
I'm going to head on over to that hospitality center.

544
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:03,600
The door opens with a chimed jingle as you enter.

545
00:34:04,519 --> 00:34:05,960
And it's a quiet building.

546
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:10,079
Some bit of dust, you notice kind of collecting in the corners.

547
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:16,280
And in a young male, probably in his early 20s,

548
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:21,040
kind of bored, looking, sitting behind the counter reading a book.

549
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,519
And he kind of looks up and sees you walk in and says,

550
00:34:24,519 --> 00:34:26,640
well, what can I what can I help you with?

551
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:29,880
Uh, hi, friend.

552
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:34,519
I was wondering, are there are there any wizards here?

553
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:40,519
He looks up from his book again, says, yeah.

554
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,880
But like, do you know where I could find one?

555
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:51,240
Maybe a teacher or or like a school or anything like that.

556
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:52,720
Oh, you're looking for schooling.

557
00:34:52,720 --> 00:34:54,640
Are you looking to take up wizardry?

558
00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:55,040
Are you?

559
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,480
I mean, it wasn't really high up on my list of priorities,

560
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,200
but then like it kind of was all of a sudden.

561
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:05,720
So, yeah, I would I would I would love to know like what the deal is.

562
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:11,040
Sure. Yeah, there are definitely schools for wizards here.

563
00:35:11,559 --> 00:35:15,000
There's a you can go kind of there's the whole

564
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:19,519
Arcanist's quarter down southeast there.

565
00:35:20,119 --> 00:35:22,920
You can go visit there.

566
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,079
There is the school.

567
00:35:25,639 --> 00:35:28,400
I mean, you might have heard of the heard of the school.

568
00:35:29,519 --> 00:35:30,639
I haven't.

569
00:35:30,639 --> 00:35:34,199
This is this is my my first time here in Neverwinter.

570
00:35:34,599 --> 00:35:37,159
Oh, well, welcome to our fine city.

571
00:35:37,799 --> 00:35:42,039
Neverwinter is a friendly city of craftsmen

572
00:35:42,159 --> 00:35:46,399
who trade extensively via the great merchants of Waterdeep.

573
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,599
I feel like you've had to prepare this speech before,

574
00:35:50,599 --> 00:35:51,839
but really, you don't have to.

575
00:35:51,839 --> 00:35:54,599
Oh, wait, there's more. OK, this.

576
00:35:54,599 --> 00:35:58,159
Their water clocks and multi-hued lamps

577
00:35:58,679 --> 00:36:01,159
can be found throughout the realms.

578
00:36:02,359 --> 00:36:05,519
OK. Neverwinter gained its name

579
00:36:05,519 --> 00:36:09,239
from the skill of its gardeners who contrived

580
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:13,159
to keep flowers blooming throughout months of snow.

581
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:16,719
I mean, I'm very smooth.

582
00:36:18,639 --> 00:36:21,199
They continue with pride.

583
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,679
Sorry, if I don't say that, OK, I get in trouble.

584
00:36:28,159 --> 00:36:30,960
OK, yeah, no, I would hate for you to get in trouble.

585
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:35,720
So you were saying the Arcanus quarter and also a school.

586
00:36:35,720 --> 00:36:38,039
I would love to hear more about this school.

587
00:36:38,039 --> 00:36:41,119
Yeah, it's Nogwood School of Wizarding.

588
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:47,840
Nogwood, do do I need any sort of invitation

589
00:36:48,119 --> 00:36:51,559
to attend Nogwood's or can I just go and knock on the front door?

590
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:54,119
I mean, you can just go knock on the door there.

591
00:36:54,159 --> 00:36:55,480
They're pretty nice over there.

592
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:59,840
Little hoity toity compared to some of the other folks in town.

593
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:03,640
But you're just looking to get some information.

594
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,440
Yeah, since I since I'm picking your brain here,

595
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,600
who are some of these not hoity toity people?

596
00:37:10,559 --> 00:37:12,240
Maybe I can go see one of them as well.

597
00:37:12,240 --> 00:37:15,840
Not hoity toity wizards.

598
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,240
I mean, there was this one guy I knew he was pretty nice.

599
00:37:18,240 --> 00:37:20,160
I don't know if he's still around.

600
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,039
His name was Gabriel.

601
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:26,480
Gabe. Gabriel.

602
00:37:27,519 --> 00:37:29,200
Could have been something like that.

603
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,560
It was a while ago that I saw him.

604
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,880
OK. Yeah.

605
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,880
Yeah, I guess I'll just I'll just head out.

606
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,760
Which which kind of direction are all these places?

607
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:42,680
Do you have like a city map, maybe?

608
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,520
Oh, yeah, sure. I've got maps.

609
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:49,280
Perfect. Final question for you, new friend.

610
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:53,240
Are there any of those water clocks you mentioned here in the city?

611
00:37:53,240 --> 00:37:55,200
I'd love to see one of those.

612
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,320
They are nearest the water.

613
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:04,480
But some people think that Neverwinter looks like an angry fish.

614
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:08,880
But really, it was designed in the shape of an eye.

615
00:38:10,720 --> 00:38:12,920
Oh, OK, I can see that.

616
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:17,000
I'm saying that it's by something's by the water is not helpful.

617
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:21,320
There's like ocean and then a river and then it looks like a lake also.

618
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,240
Maybe there's one by every water.

619
00:38:23,240 --> 00:38:24,840
All the water, just any water.

620
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,040
I guess it is what they're known for, those water clocks.

621
00:38:28,039 --> 00:38:30,239
Yeah, so now that I'm looking at the map,

622
00:38:30,759 --> 00:38:34,400
can you maybe circle where where some of these things are,

623
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,880
like the Arcanus quarter or or Gabriel's place?

624
00:38:38,279 --> 00:38:40,279
Yeah, absolutely.

625
00:38:40,279 --> 00:38:41,679
I don't know where Gabriel's place is.

626
00:38:41,679 --> 00:38:44,639
He was at the he was at the school.

627
00:38:44,639 --> 00:38:46,279
Oh, yeah.

628
00:38:46,279 --> 00:38:50,119
Currently, if you're looking at your map, you're right here.

629
00:38:50,119 --> 00:38:54,000
And he points to the on the kind of north

630
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:59,159
west, there's a two to spot

631
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:02,719
signifying an entrance to the city, like a two.

632
00:39:04,159 --> 00:39:05,280
So you just kind of came in.

633
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:09,400
You're in the kind of that entry, quarter entry, open entry way there.

634
00:39:10,199 --> 00:39:15,119
OK. And he circles off to the west.

635
00:39:16,199 --> 00:39:19,599
Actually, that big open courtyard area on the far west.

636
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,440
That's going to be your school. OK.

637
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,840
And then across the river, he says,

638
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,760
you can take one of our many sculpted bridges

639
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,800
to get over to the Arcanus quarter.

640
00:39:34,159 --> 00:39:38,039
And it is the north side of the southeast quadrant, so it's split.

641
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:41,519
There is a giant river

642
00:39:41,519 --> 00:39:45,800
that splits through the southeast or a lake, rather.

643
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:52,039
That is the the earthquake wreckage that came across our city.

644
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:56,480
I do have a question about the design of the city itself.

645
00:39:58,240 --> 00:40:02,000
I see a lot of bridges in only one section

646
00:40:02,679 --> 00:40:03,760
of town here.

647
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:07,679
Why are there no bridges later, like over to the east?

648
00:40:08,079 --> 00:40:12,280
Well, they are to take you to the to the better parts

649
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:14,920
of Neverwinter.

650
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:18,960
You see down in the southeast section, that's kind of the beggars

651
00:40:19,159 --> 00:40:21,000
orders as well.

652
00:40:21,039 --> 00:40:24,719
They wanted to try and separate that part a little bit.

653
00:40:25,119 --> 00:40:26,719
If that makes sense.

654
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,000
Yeah, yeah, that's I mean, I don't.

655
00:40:29,599 --> 00:40:30,400
Yeah, sure.

656
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,639
I mean, I don't see why there couldn't be a bridge over there, but

657
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,320
I guess I'll have to do a little walking.

658
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,239
You know, you get to take in our entire city,

659
00:40:41,039 --> 00:40:43,679
which is something that not a lot of people get to do.

660
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:49,199
OK, I I appreciate the heads up and all the information.

661
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:55,080
I'm going to go for a stroll over to the to the Nogwood's Academy and see

662
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,160
see if I can talk to someone over there.

663
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:03,200
Yeah, yeah, you're walking through through the streets there.

664
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:07,320
You see people of all different types of races and backgrounds.

665
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:12,760
And you begin you keep walking through the streets

666
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:16,560
and you pass underneath as you are walking

667
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:21,440
a giant hovering looks like part of a castle,

668
00:41:22,799 --> 00:41:25,119
a deep black in color.

669
00:41:25,759 --> 00:41:28,400
And you walk into the shadow of it.

670
00:41:29,039 --> 00:41:32,679
I mean, you feel kind of a wash over top of you.

671
00:41:33,759 --> 00:41:36,400
And as you exit the shadow, make a perception.

672
00:41:37,599 --> 00:41:40,920
Sure. I should have asked the dude about the floating tower.

673
00:41:41,639 --> 00:41:43,759
I forgot all about it.

674
00:41:43,759 --> 00:41:46,159
That is let me pull up my stats here. Hang on.

675
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,239
Because I got different stats.

676
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:50,599
That is a 15.

677
00:41:50,599 --> 00:41:53,599
You notice that your shadow has disappeared.

678
00:41:55,279 --> 00:41:57,440
Does this freak me out in any way?

679
00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:03,840
Yeah, let's make a let's make a wisdom saving roll.

680
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,880
Oh, boy. All right.

681
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,519
That is a seven.

682
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,480
You are freaked out.

683
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,039
Your shadow is gone. What does mood do?

684
00:42:15,679 --> 00:42:18,320
Is there anyone on the street nearby?

685
00:42:18,639 --> 00:42:19,679
They'd be walking by me.

686
00:42:19,679 --> 00:42:20,800
Yeah, there's lots of people around.

687
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:26,159
Um, I'm going to run over to somebody and say like,

688
00:42:26,159 --> 00:42:28,279
um, what happened to my shadow?

689
00:42:28,279 --> 00:42:29,679
Can you see my shadow?

690
00:42:29,679 --> 00:42:34,719
You run over to a man who's dressed quite he's in quite nice

691
00:42:35,039 --> 00:42:38,279
fineries and he kind of looks at you and takes a step back and says,

692
00:42:38,279 --> 00:42:41,079
what are you that you're new here? Yeah.

693
00:42:41,279 --> 00:42:44,400
Yeah, it's my it's my first like few minutes here.

694
00:42:44,559 --> 00:42:47,559
Oh, OK. Your shadow will come back.

695
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:53,240
OK, but why did why did it disappear to start with the shard of night there?

696
00:42:54,039 --> 00:42:56,280
Now kind of known as the shard of the moon,

697
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,119
but a lot of people still call it the shard night.

698
00:42:59,720 --> 00:43:04,039
It it the magics on it remove shadows.

699
00:43:04,639 --> 00:43:07,119
So you walk underneath it, your shadow disappears.

700
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,400
It will come back in time.

701
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:11,440
Don't worry.

702
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:13,960
Um, what why?

703
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:14,920
Well, what is it?

704
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:16,840
Why is it here?

705
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:20,760
Did you not talk to the information booth?

706
00:43:21,559 --> 00:43:22,599
I did, but he didn't.

707
00:43:22,599 --> 00:43:25,079
He didn't say anything about this.

708
00:43:25,079 --> 00:43:26,920
Who was working?

709
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:28,000
I don't know.

710
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,079
Some bored 20 something guy.

711
00:43:31,119 --> 00:43:34,280
Then, yeah, I don't have a lot of time,

712
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,280
but I will I will tell you about the shard of the night.

713
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:39,960
Hey, yeah, please.

714
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:40,640
Thank you kind of.

715
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:43,320
He kind of puts his hand on your shoulders and you're going to be OK.

716
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,680
I yeah, yeah, I think so.

717
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:52,040
Just talking about this is helping a lot from quite a while ago.

718
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,200
The shard of the night was.

719
00:43:57,040 --> 00:44:00,160
I mean, it just kind of showed up one day.

720
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,519
I know that doesn't really explain a lot of things,

721
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,639
but it has the ability to eat

722
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,759
shadow and darkness is what they is what they called it.

723
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,559
So anybody who walks underneath it, the shadows disappear.

724
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:17,679
There was a group called the netherese.

725
00:44:17,679 --> 00:44:22,400
They they attacked to try and take the shard of the night.

726
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:26,800
They wanted its power, what it could do.

727
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:28,480
They weren't very great people.

728
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:31,519
But then one day some lovely people

729
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,039
lovely lady named Lady Jasmine.

730
00:44:35,039 --> 00:44:37,759
She came along and she brought the shards of saloon, a

731
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:44,519
and she banished these netherese from the shard of the night.

732
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:48,759
Ever since then, these shards that were put into it,

733
00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:54,960
shards of saloon, a have been given more of a a mystical,

734
00:44:56,119 --> 00:45:00,159
fantastical, good aura that protects the city

735
00:45:00,159 --> 00:45:03,319
and has given it kind of a beacon of hope.

736
00:45:03,399 --> 00:45:07,839
So really now, more than anything, it's a a religious

737
00:45:08,279 --> 00:45:11,559
symbol for saloon, a who watches over the city.

738
00:45:11,799 --> 00:45:14,119
So why it's here.

739
00:45:15,559 --> 00:45:19,399
Nobody knows. It just showed up one.

740
00:45:19,399 --> 00:45:23,119
Is this is this Lady Jasmine some sort of sorcerer?

741
00:45:23,639 --> 00:45:27,960
She was kind of a priest of sorts, not really a sorcerer

742
00:45:28,159 --> 00:45:30,679
or not really a wizard.

743
00:45:30,679 --> 00:45:36,079
Kind of a some sort of cleric, someone who is just more religiously driven.

744
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:38,800
OK. Well, what was what was your name?

745
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:40,960
My name is Gregor.

746
00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:45,000
I appreciate the the the information there, Gregor.

747
00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:49,679
Do you do you know of any wizards around town?

748
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,720
Yeah. Yeah, there's lots of wizards in town.

749
00:45:54,079 --> 00:45:55,519
What was your name?

750
00:45:56,199 --> 00:45:58,719
I'm Moot. Moot. Pleasure.

751
00:45:59,920 --> 00:46:02,360
What what are you looking for?

752
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:05,599
Well, see, I kind of I need to find a wizard

753
00:46:05,599 --> 00:46:08,199
just to ask some questions, basically. OK.

754
00:46:09,159 --> 00:46:10,599
Go to the school. OK.

755
00:46:10,599 --> 00:46:12,960
Nogwood's not yet go to Nogwood's.

756
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:17,159
So you got that information from the from Denton.

757
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,079
Yeah. Go to Nogwood's.

758
00:46:20,079 --> 00:46:23,239
I mean, just there's a big gate

759
00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:25,880
that you're going to have to go through.

760
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:28,160
I'll let you through. Not a big deal.

761
00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:30,120
They love people coming in.

762
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:34,160
Probably don't love people, but if you're seeking information

763
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,440
is what you're doing, go to the front desk.

764
00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:41,200
Usually a lovely lady named Shieldsuit.

765
00:46:42,240 --> 00:46:44,840
She's usually working at the front desk.

766
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,440
Tell her Gregor sent you

767
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,360
and that you have a few questions for for somebody there.

768
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,040
All right. I can I can do that.

769
00:46:52,039 --> 00:46:53,759
Thanks. Thanks, Gregor. Of course.

770
00:46:53,759 --> 00:46:55,920
And I kind of hustle on my way.

771
00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,840
And he watches you go and then walks off.

772
00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:04,000
You keep walking through the streets and you hear a call

773
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,480
coming from one of the buildings.

774
00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:09,920
Hey. Hey.

775
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,920
I kind of look up,

776
00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:16,679
but I don't really notice anything out of the ordinary.

777
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,000
You hear somebody yelling out of a window,

778
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,079
but you don't really quite see them directly.

779
00:47:22,159 --> 00:47:23,840
You keep going.

780
00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:26,760
You pass by a tower

781
00:47:27,159 --> 00:47:30,199
that looks like it has one at one point fallen over

782
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:33,280
and it has crashed down into the streets.

783
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,320
And there are people kind of going in and out of it.

784
00:47:36,159 --> 00:47:37,599
Very jovial.

785
00:47:37,599 --> 00:47:40,880
It looks like it's been made into from from the face of it

786
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:43,280
sort of tavern.

787
00:47:44,119 --> 00:47:47,119
And you carry on to the gate of Nogwoods.

788
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:49,920
Do I have to knock? Is it open?

789
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,119
Is it closed? What's the deal here?

790
00:47:52,119 --> 00:47:55,719
It is free to travel up the path if you so desire.

791
00:47:56,319 --> 00:47:58,679
All right. I'm going to kind of almost double time

792
00:47:58,679 --> 00:48:00,400
my efforts through the gate.

793
00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:03,159
It's a long, long stretch of road

794
00:48:03,199 --> 00:48:05,719
that goes up to a large castle

795
00:48:06,679 --> 00:48:09,639
at the center of this wide open green clearing.

796
00:48:10,279 --> 00:48:13,519
One of the few green clearings that you've seen since you've been in here

797
00:48:14,119 --> 00:48:16,359
and you make it up to the big front door,

798
00:48:16,720 --> 00:48:19,400
which appears to be kind of cracked open just a little bit.

799
00:48:20,240 --> 00:48:23,640
And I kind of give it like two big wraps on the door

800
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:27,039
as I kind of slowly open it and say hello.

801
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:34,160
You hear a your voice kind of echo and bounce off the open chambers.

802
00:48:34,599 --> 00:48:38,480
You hear some voices from down inside and some footsteps

803
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:41,559
that come to the door and pull it open.

804
00:48:41,559 --> 00:48:44,800
And there's a an elven female.

805
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,160
She says, yes, you can you can come in.

806
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,240
And she opens the door and allows you through.

807
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:56,760
Hi, I ran into someone named Gregor

808
00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,760
who told me to come talk to a shill, a shill Sue.

809
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:02,400
I believe it was a shill Sue. That's me. Yeah.

810
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:06,519
Oh, yeah, I was I was wondering if you guys could

811
00:49:06,720 --> 00:49:09,840
maybe help me out or answer some questions.

812
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:12,720
Of course, yes.

813
00:49:12,720 --> 00:49:16,840
Um, what are you what are you looking for?

814
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,800
What's your name? Sorry.

815
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,120
Oh, sorry. My name is Moot.

816
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:24,160
Um, yeah, I kind of had this.

817
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:27,960
Magic happen,

818
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:32,960
uh, like a couple of weeks ago, and it it was really scary.

819
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:37,440
So I was wondering if you guys could maybe help me magic happen.

820
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:39,840
It just happened. You weren't like

821
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:43,320
playing with spellbooks or scrolls or.

822
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:48,440
I've no, I've I've never, never seen a spell book,

823
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:50,400
or at least to my knowledge.

824
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,440
Ah, OK.

825
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:54,519
Well, come in, have a seat.

826
00:49:54,519 --> 00:49:57,800
I will I will see if there's someone who can come

827
00:49:58,360 --> 00:49:59,720
and speak with you.

828
00:49:59,720 --> 00:50:01,039
OK, thanks.

829
00:50:01,039 --> 00:50:04,120
She ushers you to a seat in the corner by her desk,

830
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:08,720
and she kind of goes off in to the back of the chamber

831
00:50:08,720 --> 00:50:11,320
that she's in and leaves.

832
00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:16,440
We cut back to Glim,

833
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:19,080
and you are standing

834
00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:22,960
with the priest and your mama.

835
00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:28,000
And you've just been told

836
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,720
that you are a future savior of the world.

837
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:36,000
Sirma looks at you and she says,

838
00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:39,280
your journey will take you far across favor.

839
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:45,440
Several, several times over what we will teach you here

840
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:49,000
today and for the next few days

841
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:55,199
is what hopefully you can expect along those travels.

842
00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:59,400
We will grant you some tools

843
00:51:00,159 --> 00:51:03,360
of the trade, some tools of your calling

844
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:08,400
that have been left to be bestowed to you.

845
00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:12,200
And we will try to answer as many questions as we can

846
00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:16,200
before we part ways for now.

847
00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:20,800
She walks back to a half open door

848
00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:26,280
behind the altar and she says, come, come, come with me.

849
00:51:28,039 --> 00:51:30,120
Well, I'll be staying here, right?

850
00:51:30,519 --> 00:51:32,840
So can I have a minute to say goodbye?

851
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:36,440
Of course. Just come join me when you're ready.

852
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:41,960
She nods to a bean and walks in through the door.

853
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:45,880
Well, I turned to mama

854
00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:52,440
and say, this is a lot to take in.

855
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:57,480
Yes. And I'm scared

856
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,760
and overwhelmed.

857
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,680
But I think I'm doing the right thing.

858
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:11,320
So I guess thank you for

859
00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:16,680
having me be your daughter for these last 25 years.

860
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:19,840
I love you. I give her a hug.

861
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,240
She says, and I say, beat it.

862
00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:26,880
She says, we love you, too.

863
00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:31,920
OK, well, I'll try and be back soon.

864
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:36,800
I guess I don't know how long being the savior of the world is going to take me.

865
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:40,440
But I'll see you soon, OK?

866
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:44,960
And I follow Sirma through that door.

867
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:53,119
Bean watches you go and you turn back and see her begin to walk out.

868
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:57,320
You also notice that the

869
00:52:57,320 --> 00:53:01,200
that the room is empty now, you know, to hear the call of the birds.

870
00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:07,639
Or I see the see the old man who was sitting at the back left at some point.

871
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:14,840
You walk through the door and laid out, you see a shield,

872
00:53:15,559 --> 00:53:19,920
platinum edged, deep blue shining shield

873
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:23,119
with the emblem of Bahamut in the center of.

874
00:53:25,119 --> 00:53:29,039
Beside it, you see a scuffed up steel

875
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:35,440
used war pick that, although it looks used,

876
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:40,039
still has a vibrance and a radiance to it

877
00:53:40,119 --> 00:53:46,279
that you can't quite explain just by looking at.

878
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:51,079
And you see Sirma go over to them and pick them up

879
00:53:52,079 --> 00:53:58,679
and hand them to you and says, we will begin training with these tomorrow.

880
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:03,960
If you have any questions now, let's talk about them.

881
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:08,239
Otherwise, it is perhaps time for rest.

882
00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:13,000
I think I'll have a lot of questions tomorrow,

883
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:17,000
but for right now, rest seems like it might be a good idea.

884
00:54:18,039 --> 00:54:22,719
And she takes you back out and out of the chapel itself.

885
00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:27,480
And behind there are a couple of single roomed quarters.

886
00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:30,199
She leads you to one of them and she says,

887
00:54:30,199 --> 00:54:35,039
this is where you will stay for the next few days or week,

888
00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:38,039
however long you need.

889
00:54:38,039 --> 00:54:39,639
I will be in the other one.

890
00:54:39,639 --> 00:54:42,159
If anything comes up, please come find me.

891
00:54:43,159 --> 00:54:46,360
She opens the door and puts your stuff down inside

892
00:54:47,159 --> 00:54:51,199
and leaves, or goes to leave in case you need to stop her.

893
00:54:52,200 --> 00:54:58,000
Um, no, I think I like want some time to process all this business.

894
00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:01,720
OK, so she closes the door behind her.

895
00:55:03,240 --> 00:55:04,840
And you are alone in this room.

896
00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:09,720
It's a it's a very modest room, a single bed, a table

897
00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:14,960
with two small chairs at it and some reading utensils, paper.

898
00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:18,400
Otherwise, not a lot in this room.

899
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:20,360
What's them doing or thinking?

900
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:25,519
I think that she is probably going to

901
00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:31,880
like try to commune with Bahamad or, you know,

902
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:36,519
like meditate essentially and think about like try to center herself.

903
00:55:36,519 --> 00:55:40,039
And, you know, she is a deeply spiritual person

904
00:55:40,039 --> 00:55:42,680
that needs to kind of reconnect to that

905
00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:45,559
because her whole life is totally just changed.

906
00:55:50,360 --> 00:56:06,079
Hi, Brady.

907
00:56:06,079 --> 00:56:07,760
Do you want to sit on one of those?

908
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:19,440
Good start.

909
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:21,200
I'm in a holy place, Amy.

910
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:23,360
I made Tom go so red.

911
00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:29,119
The man who dropped you in our village,

912
00:56:30,079 --> 00:56:32,320
not dropped you, the man who brought you.

913
00:56:32,679 --> 00:56:34,079
I'm very tough. I'm a Dragonborn.

914
00:56:34,079 --> 00:56:35,360
You see, those kids are fine.

915
00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:37,360
It was really a double dribble situation.

916
00:56:39,119 --> 00:56:41,679
He got he got into home.

917
00:56:41,679 --> 00:56:42,720
What is it in football?

918
00:56:42,720 --> 00:56:44,000
Anyway, he spiked her.

919
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:46,320
Is it Enzo? Enzo!

920
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:47,920
Home!

921
00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:48,480
I love it.

922
00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:49,880
Hey, that's baseball, right?

923
00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:52,559
We know sports. It's a sports ball.

924
00:56:52,559 --> 00:56:54,840
Nice sports all the time.

925
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:58,320
The world's next savior.

926
00:56:58,320 --> 00:56:59,000
No pressure.

927
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:00,599
Jesus Christ.

928
00:57:00,599 --> 00:57:03,559
Fuck. Savior, that's a big word.

929
00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:07,840
The world's next protector.

930
00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:09,679
No, no, stick with savior.

931
00:57:09,679 --> 00:57:11,679
Sure. Drop that bomb.

932
00:57:11,679 --> 00:57:14,199
You're leery eyed.

933
00:57:14,199 --> 00:57:15,920
Your head hurts.

934
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:17,559
Am I hungover?

935
00:57:17,639 --> 00:57:18,920
Hmm.

936
00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:22,320
Did I grab a brush and put a little makeup?

937
00:57:23,719 --> 00:57:25,719
Did you leave the kids up on the table?

938
00:57:25,719 --> 00:57:28,159
Here you go. Create another fable.

939
00:57:28,159 --> 00:57:30,519
Somebody tell me where I am.

940
00:57:30,519 --> 00:57:33,279
A small child kind of sees.

941
00:57:38,279 --> 00:57:41,039
You there, boy. What day is it today?

942
00:57:41,039 --> 00:57:43,799
Christmas day, Mr. Scrooge.

943
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:46,840
That's how I feel like this is going.

944
00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:48,079
That's fair.

945
00:57:48,079 --> 00:57:51,360
You remind me of of

946
00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:54,440
Willy Wonka, but like in the new one,

947
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:58,079
where Johnny Depp plays it.

948
00:57:58,079 --> 00:58:00,440
Welcome, children.

949
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,760
I shake you firmly by the hand.

950
00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:09,160
She nods to a bean and walks in to the door.

951
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:15,760
Walks in through the door,

952
00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:16,960
through the door.

953
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,400
No, she hits the jam.

954
00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:21,240
Everyone has, you know, their problems.
