1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,799
Hey everybody, it's me, your Dungeon Master Russ More just wanted to pop in before the

2
00:00:04,799 --> 00:00:09,400
episode today because the Decimators of Dragons are back!

3
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:12,720
This episode follows the Season 1 finale.

4
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:14,960
We are caught back up in the timeline.

5
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:19,480
And if you aren't caught up with Season 1 and don't want to be spoiled, I'd recommend

6
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:24,480
saving these episodes until you are caught back up.

7
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:30,080
Our new schedule will be one week of story A, which is Moot, Glim, and Sully, the new

8
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:35,299
crew, and one week of story B, which are the Decimators of Dragons, on and off like

9
00:00:35,299 --> 00:00:38,000
that until the end of Season 2.

10
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,960
Also a little warning that this was an emotional episode for us as we were recording

11
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:47,240
it and it may be for you as well, dealing with a memorial and funeral for one of

12
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:48,799
the characters.

13
00:00:48,799 --> 00:00:49,799
But that's all for now.

14
00:00:49,799 --> 00:00:51,159
Thank you everybody.

15
00:00:51,160 --> 00:00:52,960
Let's get to the game.

16
00:01:09,960 --> 00:01:11,840
Welcome to Dumbgeons and Dragons!

17
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,879
We're a D&D 5th Edition actual play podcast.

18
00:01:14,879 --> 00:01:19,680
I'm your Dungeon Master Russ More and with me today is Tom Laird!

19
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:20,680
Hey, that's me!

20
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,240
I play Flint Firebeard.

21
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,040
And Amy More!

22
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,360
Hi.

23
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,400
I play Amastasia.

24
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:29,400
Hello.

25
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,400
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

26
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,240
Not with us today is Carla Johnson.

27
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,440
Spoiler alert, if you haven't listened to the finale and don't want to find out

28
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,360
how Season 1 ended, now's the time to stop listening...

29
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:44,360
Now!

30
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,360
Kay, thanks, bye!

31
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,440
Um, I want to derail this immediately.

32
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:50,440
Please do!

33
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:52,200
That's right!

34
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:53,200
I like it.

35
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:54,200
It's some brand.

36
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,239
If you had to give a TED Talk, what would your TED Talk be on?

37
00:01:56,239 --> 00:01:57,239
Oh shit.

38
00:01:57,239 --> 00:01:58,239
Look at Russ's eyes.

39
00:01:58,239 --> 00:01:59,239
It's just like...

40
00:01:59,239 --> 00:02:03,840
Well, Russ, I don't want to speak for you, but like, audio editing, hands down.

41
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:08,120
Like you could tell so many people so many things in a TED Talk situation.

42
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:09,120
I don't know.

43
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:10,599
But what form of audio editing?

44
00:02:10,599 --> 00:02:11,599
Cause like you just...

45
00:02:11,599 --> 00:02:15,000
I mean anybody can go on YouTube and be like, audio editing.

46
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,280
Yeah, but they all suck!

47
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:21,280
Okay, it'd be audio editing and or podcast something.

48
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:22,599
Heavy emphasis on the something.

49
00:02:22,599 --> 00:02:23,599
Sure.

50
00:02:23,599 --> 00:02:24,599
Amy?

51
00:02:24,599 --> 00:02:25,599
Ah, god man.

52
00:02:25,599 --> 00:02:26,599
I don't know.

53
00:02:26,599 --> 00:02:27,599
I am...

54
00:02:27,599 --> 00:02:29,159
I do not think I am qualified to do a TED Talk.

55
00:02:29,159 --> 00:02:30,159
Those kind of talks.

56
00:02:30,159 --> 00:02:31,159
It doesn't matter.

57
00:02:31,159 --> 00:02:36,319
It could be about something that I'm completely uninterested in, like editing audio for

58
00:02:36,319 --> 00:02:37,319
a podcast.

59
00:02:37,319 --> 00:02:45,000
And then, but you listen to it, but you listen to it, stop, but you listen

60
00:02:45,039 --> 00:02:49,039
to it and it like changes your life anyway.

61
00:02:49,039 --> 00:02:50,599
Like that's what a TED Talk is.

62
00:02:50,599 --> 00:02:51,599
Yeah, they're always like super crazy.

63
00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:57,280
It could really be just so inspiring regardless of your interest in the topic.

64
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:04,120
So I don't know if I'm that awe-inspiring, but I really like to garden.

65
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,319
So it would be something like garden cause your life will be better.

66
00:03:08,319 --> 00:03:09,319
Okay.

67
00:03:09,319 --> 00:03:10,319
There you go.

68
00:03:10,319 --> 00:03:11,319
And you?

69
00:03:11,359 --> 00:03:16,840
I would do a dedicated TED Talk to just talk about the last round of golf I played because

70
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:21,479
I was really fucking good in it and I want to tell everyone about it.

71
00:03:21,479 --> 00:03:26,219
So this was just a segue of your own accord to talk about how... so how good was your

72
00:03:26,219 --> 00:03:27,219
golf?

73
00:03:27,219 --> 00:03:28,219
Oh my god.

74
00:03:28,219 --> 00:03:32,120
You didn't create anxiety within me in order to segue yourself into talking about

75
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:33,120
golf.

76
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:34,120
That's right.

77
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,120
I think that was really selfish of you, Tom.

78
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:36,319
It doesn't matter.

79
00:03:36,319 --> 00:03:38,439
I wanted to talk about it and that was my way in.

80
00:03:38,439 --> 00:03:40,359
No, it was really good.

81
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,280
I was playing so well.

82
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:43,440
Everything was working great.

83
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,560
It was a fantastic day.

84
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:46,560
Wow.

85
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,600
You shoot like 18 under?

86
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:54,000
Well, it was a team event, but I mean, let's be honest.

87
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,560
It was... the team was me.

88
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,040
As it usually is.

89
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,040
Tom, so humble.

90
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,040
Humble.

91
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:03,040
So humble.

92
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:04,040
But I played so well.

93
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,040
Modest.

94
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,680
Normally I am, but I played so well, humbleness is out the window for this

95
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:09,680
one.

96
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:10,960
Humbleness.

97
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:11,960
Yep.

98
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:12,960
Well, that's good.

99
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:13,960
Humility?

100
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:14,960
Humility?

101
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:15,960
Humility.

102
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,400
So welcome to our podcast, Tom Talks About Golf.

103
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:19,400
Yep.

104
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:20,400
Golf talk.

105
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:21,400
Golf talk.

106
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:22,400
We're also...

107
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:23,400
Strap in for the next 90 minutes.

108
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:24,400
Okay.

109
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:25,400
All right.

110
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:26,399
So we're going to be running two feeds.

111
00:04:26,399 --> 00:04:28,960
Tom's feed is just going to be talking about golf and then this one.

112
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:33,199
So pan left, just leave the left ear bud in for Tom golf, leave the right ear

113
00:04:33,199 --> 00:04:34,199
bud in for D&D.

114
00:04:34,199 --> 00:04:35,199
Perfect.

115
00:04:35,199 --> 00:04:36,199
Okay?

116
00:04:36,199 --> 00:04:37,360
This is going to be...

117
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:38,720
We're breaking new ground here.

118
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:39,760
Yep.

119
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:40,760
Yep.

120
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:41,760
It's going to be real weird.

121
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,560
If you want a real mind, blow your mind, just put both of them in.

122
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,320
They sync up to Dark Side of the Moon.

123
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,320
Oh, weird how we did that.

124
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:50,320
Yeah.

125
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:51,320
I mean, everything does.

126
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,320
Russell will tell you all about it in his TED Talk.

127
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:54,320
Yeah.

128
00:04:54,320 --> 00:05:00,840
Anyways, we're at Dumbgeons and Dragons, fifth edition actual play podcast.

129
00:05:00,840 --> 00:05:05,000

Like today's episode is dedicated to Richard Lorentz.

133
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,000
Thanks Richard.

134
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,000
Richard.

135
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,000
Richard.

136
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,000
You're awesome.

137
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,639
Thank you so much.

138
00:05:20,639 --> 00:05:21,839
Thank you very much, Richard.

139
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:22,839
You can check it out.

140
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:23,839
Thank you very much.

141
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,160
Patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast.

142
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:27,680
If all the golf talk is done.

143
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:28,680
Yes, it's done.

144
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:29,680
I promise.

145
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:30,680
Put your finger away.

146
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:31,680
If all the gardening stuff is done.

147
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:32,680
Don't point at me.

148
00:05:32,840 --> 00:05:35,560
I literally said one thing and it was because I was forced to.

149
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:36,560
You were put on the spot.

150
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:41,720
I could talk about this reusable metal straw for a day.

151
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:42,720
This is great audio.

152
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:43,720
Yeah.

153
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,720
Clink it around in the glass.

154
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:46,920
Oh, yeah.

155
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,360
That's coming through loud and clear.

156
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,840
It's good for those of you who can't quite see.

157
00:05:50,840 --> 00:05:51,840
It's rainbow.

158
00:05:51,840 --> 00:05:54,920
I don't know if that's really picking up on the video for our patrons, but it's

159
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:55,920
rainbow.

160
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:56,920
Well, it's Pride Month.

161
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:57,920
So it has to be rainbow.

162
00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:58,920
It's the law.

163
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:06,800
Like just be in there and and fuck it.

164
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:07,800
Let's play D&D.

165
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,280
It's like Russ is just waiting.

166
00:06:10,280 --> 00:06:12,280
My brain literally went boop boop.

167
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:36,759
We open on a scene at Waterdeep.

168
00:06:36,759 --> 00:06:43,879
It's about a week after the final battle at the Well of Dragons.

169
00:06:43,879 --> 00:06:52,160
The remaining forces have all made their way back to Waterdeep and there is a massive

170
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:56,759
gathering outside Castle Waterdeep.

171
00:06:57,519 --> 00:07:07,159
From a large balcony, we see Lady Laryl Silverhand, Leosin, and Lord Dagglet Neverember moving

172
00:07:07,159 --> 00:07:16,920
to address a waiting crowd that stands before them, which is a large percentage of the

173
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:25,639
population of the surrounding area of Beirut, who have and had come to Waterdeep, escaping

174
00:07:25,639 --> 00:07:31,000
the cult's reach.

175
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:40,959
All around the city, we see flags at half-mast from all of the various factions and alliances

176
00:07:40,959 --> 00:07:46,959
from around Beirut.

177
00:07:46,959 --> 00:07:54,039
Alongside them, we see banners of the Decimators of Dragons.

178
00:07:54,040 --> 00:08:02,560
Before Lady Laryl Silverhand, we see a large casket.

179
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:11,759
And in front of that casket is Nularaaaa's sword, Dragonslayer.

180
00:08:11,759 --> 00:08:25,319
Down in front, battle-weary and scarred, we see Flamikin's Thaddeus, Delaine Winterhound,

181
00:08:25,319 --> 00:08:33,240
and all number of allied forces leaders.

182
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,039
Lady Laryl goes to address the crowd.

183
00:08:37,039 --> 00:08:44,719
During the speech, she goes on to say that of the allied forces, more than half were

184
00:08:44,719 --> 00:08:59,120
lost, including one of the Beacons of Hope, Nularaaaa Moonbrook, struck down while defeating

185
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:05,679
Tiamat herself.

186
00:09:05,680 --> 00:09:14,160
We look around the crowd and there's a noticeable absence.

187
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:26,320
Flint and Thea are nowhere to be seen.

188
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:35,920
We cut to an unmarked caravan on the road between Waterdeep and the High Forest.

189
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:40,280
It's raining, pouring rain.

190
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:49,320
Two figures are at the seat of the caravan, hoods over their heads as they move down

191
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:56,000
a all-but-empty road.

192
00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:06,679
We move in on the figures to see Flint and Thea, Donnie seated behind them in the caravan,

193
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,639
and they are traveling.

194
00:10:10,639 --> 00:10:17,919
What are you two doing and talking about?

195
00:10:17,919 --> 00:10:23,799
Well, Thea is for sure smoking a joint.

196
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:36,600
She's regressed a little bit after the loss of her bestie and is kind of slumped down,

197
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:50,800
horrific posture, hood over her head, silent, which is odd for her.

198
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:58,520
Flint is just kind of scanning the tree line next to the road because he's a soldier.

199
00:10:58,520 --> 00:10:59,520
He's always on guard.

200
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,680
You never know when someone's going to jump out there.

201
00:11:02,680 --> 00:11:08,400
Thea hopes someone jumps out there.

202
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:12,960
I imagine it's been silent for quite a while.

203
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:22,080
You two, after returning to Waterdeep, met with Leosin.

204
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:29,759
We cut back to a couple days earlier as you arrive back in Waterdeep.

205
00:11:29,759 --> 00:11:38,440
You go to Leosin's chambers as kind of a debrief of sorts, and he's seated at

206
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:52,600
his desk, just kind of blankly staring as you two enter.

207
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:57,680
Flint just flops down in a chair.

208
00:11:57,680 --> 00:12:02,120
Thea, I think, paces around the room.

209
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,360
So, how's things?

210
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:19,399
Well, thanks to you, we won.

211
00:12:19,399 --> 00:12:21,840
That's how things are.

212
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:30,240
The cult's forces have retreated, all that were left, and we estimate a good number

213
00:12:30,279 --> 00:12:33,560
of them were killed on the battlefield.

214
00:12:33,560 --> 00:12:37,080
Would you say at least 80 percent?

215
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,080
You know what?

216
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:39,080
I am a man of math.

217
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,240
I would say somewhere in the vicinity of 80 percent.

218
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:43,240
Thank you.

219
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:49,639
Thank you for bringing me back home on that one.

220
00:12:49,639 --> 00:12:54,840
I mean, you say it was a win, but it doesn't really feel like it.

221
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:59,600
No, no, it does not feel like a win today.

222
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:15,560
This is what we had discussed before you left, is that we prepared for the worst, hoped

223
00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:27,480
for the best, which, overall, Faerun is safe for now, but at a cost of many of our

224
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:34,399
own, including our dear friend, Nularaaaa.

225
00:13:34,399 --> 00:13:40,480
I mean, I know we had the conversations before we left, but I'll be honest with you,

226
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:49,200
I didn't think we'd need him, just thought it was a formality.

227
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:55,320
That's what I hoped for as well, Flint.

228
00:13:55,360 --> 00:14:09,400
I knew the battle that you were going into would be one that would be hard to win.

229
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,520
What are we supposed to do now?

230
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:16,360
In terms of what, Thea?

231
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:17,360
I don't know.

232
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:18,360
I think just in general.

233
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:19,360
In terms of anything.

234
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:20,360
In general.

235
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:21,360
What do we do?

236
00:14:21,399 --> 00:14:24,399
It's a little gone now.

237
00:14:24,399 --> 00:14:27,399
I understand.

238
00:14:27,399 --> 00:14:37,279
You, it's not going to seem like much consolation, but you will be greatly rewarded for your

239
00:14:37,279 --> 00:14:39,279
service to Waterdeep.

240
00:14:39,279 --> 00:14:41,279
Oh, I don't give a shit about that.

241
00:14:41,279 --> 00:14:42,279
And to Faerun.

242
00:14:42,279 --> 00:14:43,279
Yeah.

243
00:14:43,279 --> 00:14:45,560
No, I get it.

244
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,240
Give my half to Nularaaaa's family.

245
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,519
Yeah, mine too.

246
00:14:50,519 --> 00:15:02,360
That comes to what Nularaaaa wanted to do in the event that she did not make it back.

247
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:07,679
There will be a ceremony held here in the city.

248
00:15:07,679 --> 00:15:18,039
All will be invited to celebrate those that fought.

249
00:15:18,039 --> 00:15:25,959
Those that won and came back and those that won and paid the ultimate price.

250
00:15:25,959 --> 00:15:37,959
Nularaaaa understood that this might be something, but said that she did not want to be part

251
00:15:37,959 --> 00:15:41,079
of it in a direct sense.

252
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:53,120
And she requested that you, Flint and Thea, take her back to High Forest to her family.

253
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:54,120
Okay.

254
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:55,120
Yeah.

255
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:56,120
Done.

256
00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,400
When do we leave?

257
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,800
You can leave as soon as you are ready.

258
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:03,800
I'm ready.

259
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:04,800
Yep.

260
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:05,800
Let's go.

261
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:10,520
Is there anything else that Nularaaaa said to you?

262
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:15,640
I don't know.

263
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:23,760
Anything she may have written or that she wanted us to know in the event of her, you

264
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:29,920
know?

265
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:36,880
She has given explicit instructions where her material possessions are to go and where

266
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:42,760
her remains are to be laid to rest.

267
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:54,160
She knew that this could happen and knowing Nularaaaa as much as I did, this is a way

268
00:16:54,399 --> 00:17:04,399
that if she had to go out, this is the way she wanted to do it.

269
00:17:04,399 --> 00:17:11,240
Well, I can't argue with you there.

270
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:12,480
Blaze of Glory was always.

271
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:13,480
Yep.

272
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:14,480
I mean.

273
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:18,559
I mean, we discussed it once on that train.

274
00:17:18,559 --> 00:17:20,159
Top five ways to go.

275
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:24,560
Blaze of Glory was one.

276
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:34,080
We will pack everything into an unmarked caravan and send you on your way.

277
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,160
You will travel alone.

278
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:45,000
I don't anticipate much in terms of resistance along the way.

279
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:50,080
At the very least, anything that you two cannot handle.

280
00:17:50,079 --> 00:17:57,399
After that, any place you want within the realm is yours.

281
00:17:57,399 --> 00:18:00,500
Any position is yours.

282
00:18:00,500 --> 00:18:04,359
Any task is yours.

283
00:18:04,360 --> 00:18:21,640
We are here to help you find purpose where you can.

284
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:28,640
For now, your task, as you have said, is to take Nularaaaa home.

285
00:18:34,360 --> 00:18:45,780
And we cut back to the caravan, silent still.

286
00:18:45,780 --> 00:18:54,100
You can tell you're getting closer to where Nularaaaa's family's homestead is, based on

287
00:18:54,100 --> 00:19:00,200
the directions and distances you've traveled and have been given by Leosin, because

288
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,460
you yourselves have not been there.

289
00:19:03,799 --> 00:19:10,160
You and Nularaaaa have talked about it, but he's given you direct, very explicit directions

290
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,559
on how to get there.

291
00:19:13,559 --> 00:19:27,240
Hey, do you think Nularaaaa asked to go back home because she knew what an utter pain

292
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:31,840
in the ass it would be to travel her all this way back to go and put her, like,

293
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:32,840
with her family?

294
00:19:32,839 --> 00:19:34,459
Do you think that's why she did it?

295
00:19:34,459 --> 00:19:37,980
I mean, I wouldn't rule it out.

296
00:19:37,980 --> 00:19:40,139
I honestly wouldn't.

297
00:19:40,139 --> 00:19:43,099
Bitch got the last laugh, didn't she?

298
00:19:43,099 --> 00:19:44,299
She was always crafty, though.

299
00:19:44,299 --> 00:19:45,299
You knew she would.

300
00:19:53,299 --> 00:19:56,659
Shouldn't have been her.

301
00:19:56,659 --> 00:20:01,699
No, I mean, it should have been all of us.

302
00:20:01,699 --> 00:20:02,699
Yeah.

303
00:20:03,559 --> 00:20:06,559
You're walking away.

304
00:20:06,559 --> 00:20:08,960
Do you feel as guilty as I feel, because I feel guilty.

305
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:10,680
I think it's survivor remorse.

306
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,200
Yeah, just a little bit.

307
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:15,559
I could have done more.

308
00:20:15,559 --> 00:20:20,400
I could have got to her faster.

309
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:26,920
I mean, I think we all could have done more.

310
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,120
I don't think you could have done more.

311
00:20:29,120 --> 00:20:30,120
I think I could have.

312
00:20:30,120 --> 00:20:36,900
I saved my one big shot for the very end, and what if I'd done it sooner?

313
00:20:36,900 --> 00:20:43,260
Maybe it would have been enough to have her survive.

314
00:20:43,260 --> 00:20:46,860
You beat the shit out of a five-headed dragon.

315
00:20:46,860 --> 00:20:55,180
But I still feel like I could have done more.

316
00:20:55,180 --> 00:20:59,460
Maybe it's just the way it was supposed to be, or whatever.

317
00:20:59,460 --> 00:21:02,100
Could have been.

318
00:21:02,100 --> 00:21:07,940
I think at this point, the rain's letting up, and you put your hood down.

319
00:21:07,940 --> 00:21:18,579
Flint, you were underneath the largest blast of flame from Tiamat.

320
00:21:18,579 --> 00:21:27,940
As was previously discussed, armor was melting into skin, was melting into dragon scale.

321
00:21:27,940 --> 00:21:36,539
As you lower your hood, having been magically healed by this point, what does Flint look

322
00:21:36,539 --> 00:21:39,900
like now?

323
00:21:39,900 --> 00:21:44,660
Definitely more scarred than before.

324
00:21:44,660 --> 00:21:49,660
There's a patch of his beard that will not grow back.

325
00:21:49,660 --> 00:21:51,340
Oh, God!

326
00:21:51,340 --> 00:21:57,019
I mean, that magical healing can only do so much.

327
00:21:57,059 --> 00:22:04,420
In terms of the amount of dragon scale that we see, you had previously, last we saw, it

328
00:22:04,420 --> 00:22:07,460
was on your arm and chest.

329
00:22:07,460 --> 00:22:08,900
What does it look like now?

330
00:22:08,900 --> 00:22:15,339
Yeah, I mean, similar, maybe a little more encroachment up the neck.

331
00:22:15,339 --> 00:22:20,339
I turn over and I kind of touch the scales on your neck.

332
00:22:20,339 --> 00:22:24,139
I'm like, what's it feel like?

333
00:22:24,380 --> 00:22:29,060
It doesn't really feel any different than it did before.

334
00:22:29,060 --> 00:22:33,780
I mean, I know it would feel different for you, but for you touching me, it feels

335
00:22:33,780 --> 00:22:35,780
the same.

336
00:22:35,780 --> 00:22:37,780
Hmm.

337
00:22:39,780 --> 00:22:42,740
Do you have to like clean him with a toothbrush?

338
00:22:42,740 --> 00:22:48,940
Because I had a turtle once, and I had to clean his shell and scales with a toothbrush.

339
00:22:48,940 --> 00:22:55,860
I mean, you know those like really coarse brushes that people use on their feet?

340
00:22:55,860 --> 00:22:59,259
I use one of those, and it seems to do the job pretty well.

341
00:22:59,259 --> 00:23:01,340
I bet that feel really good.

342
00:23:01,340 --> 00:23:02,740
I mean, it does.

343
00:23:02,740 --> 00:23:04,340
Do you shed any?

344
00:23:04,340 --> 00:23:06,180
No, I haven't noticed any.

345
00:23:06,180 --> 00:23:10,820
I'm sure that they probably do, but you know, like when you have an itchy back

346
00:23:10,820 --> 00:23:13,380
and someone just hits that spot perfectly?

347
00:23:13,380 --> 00:23:15,100
That's what it feels like when I use that brush.

348
00:23:15,100 --> 00:23:16,100
It's great.

349
00:23:16,220 --> 00:23:18,220
Oh.

350
00:23:18,220 --> 00:23:20,380
That's very intimate sharing.

351
00:23:20,380 --> 00:23:23,020
Flint, thank you.

352
00:23:23,020 --> 00:23:25,460
You continue traveling for a while.

353
00:23:25,460 --> 00:23:27,780
Everybody make a perception check.

354
00:23:27,780 --> 00:23:28,260
What?

355
00:23:28,260 --> 00:23:29,460
I don't even have my dice out.

356
00:23:29,460 --> 00:23:30,220
You're playing D&D.

357
00:23:30,220 --> 00:23:30,860
What are you doing?

358
00:23:30,860 --> 00:23:31,820
I mean, you should have your dice out.

359
00:23:31,820 --> 00:23:34,220
Sometimes I have my dice out, and I never get to use them.

360
00:23:34,220 --> 00:23:35,540
Yeah.

361
00:23:35,540 --> 00:23:36,900
It's a 15 for me.

362
00:23:36,900 --> 00:23:39,460
Oh, wait, perception.

363
00:23:39,460 --> 00:23:41,820
My perception is good.

364
00:23:41,820 --> 00:23:43,180
17.

365
00:23:43,180 --> 00:23:45,860
I rolled an 8.

366
00:23:45,860 --> 00:23:47,860
Yay for a bonus.

367
00:23:47,860 --> 00:23:52,180
Flint, you're watching the line there, so you can roll with advantage, too.

368
00:23:52,180 --> 00:23:53,060
Oh, sure.

369
00:23:53,060 --> 00:23:57,180
Because you had previously mentioned that you were watching the first one.

370
00:23:57,180 --> 00:23:59,460
It was less than the 15.

371
00:23:59,460 --> 00:24:02,700
Plus, you know, I distracted him a bit by talking about grooming habits.

372
00:24:02,700 --> 00:24:05,140
It's true.

373
00:24:05,140 --> 00:24:14,380
Thea, you see, well, both of you see ahead of you a man standing in the road.

374
00:24:16,860 --> 00:24:18,820
Does he look friendly?

375
00:24:18,820 --> 00:24:21,180
He doesn't look unfriendly.

376
00:24:21,180 --> 00:24:22,620
Does he look hurt?

377
00:24:22,620 --> 00:24:25,140
No.

378
00:24:25,140 --> 00:24:29,100
Thea, you notice some movement off to the right in the trees,

379
00:24:29,100 --> 00:24:34,660
as you have made your way more into High Forest now.

380
00:24:34,660 --> 00:24:41,460
And as you approach him, he calls out and says, ah, hey, hey there.

381
00:24:41,539 --> 00:24:47,420
What brings you out this far?

382
00:24:47,420 --> 00:24:49,220
That business is my own.

383
00:24:49,220 --> 00:24:51,180
Mm.

384
00:24:51,180 --> 00:24:53,579
Fair enough.

385
00:24:53,579 --> 00:24:57,340
Transporting goods, services, something else?

386
00:24:57,340 --> 00:24:59,259
Precious cargo.

387
00:24:59,259 --> 00:25:00,900
Mm, good, good.

388
00:25:00,900 --> 00:25:05,059
I look at Flint and I go, precious cargo?

389
00:25:05,059 --> 00:25:06,779
Precious fucking cargo.

390
00:25:06,779 --> 00:25:08,180
The most precious.

391
00:25:08,220 --> 00:25:11,740
This guy is going to fucking try to steal from us, Flint.

392
00:25:11,740 --> 00:25:12,779
God damn it.

393
00:25:12,779 --> 00:25:14,620
I mean, has it been so long?

394
00:25:14,620 --> 00:25:18,140
I think we can handle this one dude.

395
00:25:18,140 --> 00:25:20,900
And then I nudge my head over to the right,

396
00:25:20,900 --> 00:25:23,740
where there is movement in the forest on the side.

397
00:25:23,740 --> 00:25:25,140
I'm like, it's not just the one.

398
00:25:25,140 --> 00:25:27,779
It's never just the one dude.

399
00:25:27,779 --> 00:25:28,620
Well, shit.

400
00:25:32,460 --> 00:25:37,180
The guy has kind of put himself in the way of your carriage.

401
00:25:37,180 --> 00:25:40,420
I draw my bow and I aim it at him.

402
00:25:40,420 --> 00:25:42,019
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

403
00:25:42,019 --> 00:25:44,700
What seems to be the problem here?

404
00:25:44,700 --> 00:25:46,700
Who are you?

405
00:25:46,700 --> 00:25:48,140
My name?

406
00:25:48,140 --> 00:25:50,940
Yes, your name.

407
00:25:50,940 --> 00:25:52,500
Well, my friends call me Davey,

408
00:25:52,500 --> 00:25:55,580
but I don't know if you're for friends yet.

409
00:25:55,580 --> 00:25:58,140
What's your last name, Davey?

410
00:25:58,140 --> 00:25:59,660
Jones.

411
00:25:59,660 --> 00:26:01,019
Davey Jones?

412
00:26:01,019 --> 00:26:01,660
Yeah.

413
00:26:01,660 --> 00:26:03,900
Are you bullshitting me right now?

414
00:26:03,900 --> 00:26:07,300
Why would I do that?

415
00:26:07,300 --> 00:26:09,940
Dude does not look like any motherfucking pirate I know.

416
00:26:09,940 --> 00:26:10,900
Davey.

417
00:26:10,900 --> 00:26:14,220
Reminds me of that traveling bard.

418
00:26:14,220 --> 00:26:15,780
There was another Davey Jones, though,

419
00:26:15,780 --> 00:26:19,660
so he renamed to David Bowie.

420
00:26:19,660 --> 00:26:20,860
Oh.

421
00:26:20,860 --> 00:26:23,940
Well, maybe he can rename himself to David Arrow

422
00:26:23,940 --> 00:26:26,060
after I put one of these in his leg.

423
00:26:26,060 --> 00:26:29,620
I might not want to do that if I were you.

424
00:26:29,620 --> 00:26:34,660
See, I've got friends in the trees who...

425
00:26:34,660 --> 00:26:36,420
Would you say they're friends in high places?

426
00:26:36,420 --> 00:26:38,740
Are they up in the trees?

427
00:26:38,740 --> 00:26:39,620
You're good.

428
00:26:39,620 --> 00:26:42,460
You're good, you.

429
00:26:42,460 --> 00:26:46,100
I got friends in the trees, up in high places.

430
00:26:46,100 --> 00:26:52,220
And they're a little bit iffy on people

431
00:26:52,220 --> 00:26:54,460
traveling down their road.

432
00:26:54,460 --> 00:26:57,020
So they may have things trained on you.

433
00:26:57,020 --> 00:26:58,140
Is all I'm telling you.

434
00:26:58,140 --> 00:26:58,860
Their road?

435
00:26:58,860 --> 00:27:00,660
What makes it their road?

436
00:27:00,660 --> 00:27:03,620
Well, since, you know, there's not many people out here,

437
00:27:03,620 --> 00:27:04,900
it's taken claims.

438
00:27:04,900 --> 00:27:07,220
It's just re-dividing the land back

439
00:27:07,220 --> 00:27:10,340
to who it should belong to.

440
00:27:10,340 --> 00:27:13,660
And it's not me.

441
00:27:13,660 --> 00:27:14,940
It's not me.

442
00:27:14,940 --> 00:27:15,900
It's my boss.

443
00:27:15,900 --> 00:27:18,740
He likes this plot of land.

444
00:27:18,740 --> 00:27:19,780
Who is your boss?

445
00:27:19,780 --> 00:27:22,980
Oh, like I said, I don't know if we're friends yet,

446
00:27:22,980 --> 00:27:24,620
my dear.

447
00:27:24,620 --> 00:27:29,140
Oh, I don't need to be friends with you to talk to your boss.

448
00:27:29,140 --> 00:27:30,140
Fair enough.

449
00:27:30,140 --> 00:27:32,100
Anyways, I ask you to lower your weapons.

450
00:27:32,100 --> 00:27:34,700
We just want to take a look at what you're transporting,

451
00:27:34,700 --> 00:27:36,300
and then we'll let you on your way.

452
00:27:39,100 --> 00:27:44,180
What side of the battle did you fight on?

453
00:27:44,180 --> 00:27:46,580
Side of the battle.

454
00:27:46,580 --> 00:27:47,500
Oh, I'm sorry.

455
00:27:47,500 --> 00:27:48,660
Have you not heard?

456
00:27:48,660 --> 00:27:52,700
Yeah, you know, the big, big battle that just happened?

457
00:27:52,740 --> 00:27:55,299
Five-headed dragon and all.

458
00:27:55,299 --> 00:27:56,980
The big thing.

459
00:27:56,980 --> 00:27:58,460
We didn't fight in the battle.

460
00:27:58,460 --> 00:27:59,700
Oh, you didn't fight in the battle.

461
00:27:59,700 --> 00:28:04,980
So you are currently enjoying your un-enslaved life.

462
00:28:04,980 --> 00:28:06,019
Oh, that's so wonderful.

463
00:28:06,019 --> 00:28:09,580
And who do you have to thank for that?

464
00:28:09,580 --> 00:28:11,819
I mean, ourselves, obviously.

465
00:28:11,819 --> 00:28:13,740
We didn't get in the mix of all that.

466
00:28:13,740 --> 00:28:18,059
Thea releases an arrow into this dude's foot.

467
00:28:18,059 --> 00:28:19,259
She is not fucking around.

468
00:28:19,259 --> 00:28:22,259
And she is kind of like a loose cannon at this point.

469
00:28:22,539 --> 00:28:24,180
Roll for attack.

470
00:28:24,180 --> 00:28:26,019
Actually, roll for initiative.

471
00:28:26,019 --> 00:28:27,339
And then roll for attack.

472
00:28:27,339 --> 00:28:28,299
Sorry, Flint.

473
00:28:28,299 --> 00:28:30,579
I don't know if you were looking for this kind of party,

474
00:28:30,579 --> 00:28:32,740
but Thea's ready to party.

475
00:28:32,740 --> 00:28:35,379
I was going to start swinging, so it's fine.

476
00:28:35,379 --> 00:28:36,339
I didn't even want to wait.

477
00:28:36,339 --> 00:28:38,579
The fact that he didn't even know who never,

478
00:28:38,579 --> 00:28:41,099
you know what, I can't even get into it right now.

479
00:28:42,579 --> 00:28:43,660
It's only 15.

480
00:28:43,660 --> 00:28:45,779
But do I get to go first anyway

481
00:28:45,779 --> 00:28:47,940
because I surprise attacked him?

482
00:28:47,940 --> 00:28:51,660
Well, yeah, you get a first round.

483
00:28:51,700 --> 00:28:53,259
Okay.

484
00:28:53,259 --> 00:28:54,100
Okay.

485
00:28:54,100 --> 00:28:54,940
You loose an arrow.

486
00:28:57,140 --> 00:28:58,500
It's a 20.

487
00:28:58,500 --> 00:29:00,220
Not, not now.

488
00:29:00,220 --> 00:29:01,380
Okay.

489
00:29:01,380 --> 00:29:04,420
And it's just with my longbow.

490
00:29:06,940 --> 00:29:08,940
So it's seven piercing damage.

491
00:29:08,940 --> 00:29:11,940
So you loose this arrow and it flies.

492
00:29:11,940 --> 00:29:12,779
You're aiming for his foot.

493
00:29:12,779 --> 00:29:13,779
I'm just aiming for his foot.

494
00:29:13,779 --> 00:29:15,100
Maybe even right between his toes

495
00:29:15,100 --> 00:29:17,300
if I could be so accurate.

496
00:29:17,300 --> 00:29:19,420
Well, we'll say you hit the foot.

497
00:29:19,420 --> 00:29:22,980
But yeah, it goes right into the top of his foot

498
00:29:22,980 --> 00:29:25,460
and into the ground.

499
00:29:25,460 --> 00:29:26,300
Good, yeah.

500
00:29:26,300 --> 00:29:27,380
I don't really want him to move.

501
00:29:27,380 --> 00:29:31,019
Yeah, a good foot and a half at least into the ground.

502
00:29:31,019 --> 00:29:32,900
The ground's really wet at this point.

503
00:29:32,900 --> 00:29:34,259
Foot and a half.

504
00:29:34,259 --> 00:29:35,100
Oh.

505
00:29:36,580 --> 00:29:38,100
We're here all day, guys.

506
00:29:38,100 --> 00:29:39,380
So it goes through his foot

507
00:29:39,380 --> 00:29:41,100
and he lets out a scream and says,

508
00:29:41,100 --> 00:29:42,580
why did you do that?

509
00:29:44,580 --> 00:29:46,259
Because you don't know.

510
00:29:48,060 --> 00:29:49,060
I don't know what.

511
00:29:49,539 --> 00:29:50,740
Guys, get him.

512
00:29:52,300 --> 00:29:54,060
And we're to the top of initiative, which is you.

513
00:29:54,060 --> 00:29:55,180
Which is me.

514
00:29:55,180 --> 00:29:56,620
Oh, well. That never happens.

515
00:29:56,620 --> 00:29:57,940
I hate it.

516
00:29:59,940 --> 00:30:03,860
You've taken on a new energy ever since you were nine.

517
00:30:03,860 --> 00:30:08,060
So can I look around and see who I saw in the forest?

518
00:30:08,060 --> 00:30:11,180
Make a investigation check.

519
00:30:15,860 --> 00:30:16,860
Well, that's a 20.

520
00:30:17,820 --> 00:30:21,220
You see, yeah, you give a quick glance to the side.

521
00:30:21,220 --> 00:30:25,980
You see one archer for sure off to your right up in a tree.

522
00:30:25,980 --> 00:30:28,580
Was it Sterling archer or Mallory archer?

523
00:30:30,420 --> 00:30:33,140
Wasn't that good of an investigation check.

524
00:30:33,140 --> 00:30:34,940
Gonna have to get a little closer to find out.

525
00:30:34,940 --> 00:30:36,660
You see one archer off into the right

526
00:30:36,660 --> 00:30:39,260
and you see movement in the deck

527
00:30:39,260 --> 00:30:41,700
kind of down below off to the left.

528
00:30:42,620 --> 00:30:43,980
Okay.

529
00:30:43,980 --> 00:30:48,980
I decide to Eldritch Blast off to the right.

530
00:30:55,220 --> 00:30:56,660
Into the person in the tree?

531
00:30:56,660 --> 00:30:57,500
Yes.

532
00:31:00,380 --> 00:31:01,660
It's an 18.

533
00:31:01,660 --> 00:31:03,099
That will hit.

534
00:31:03,099 --> 00:31:07,059
Okay, so a beam of crackly energy streaks toward him

535
00:31:07,059 --> 00:31:08,500
or her or it, whatever it is.

536
00:31:08,500 --> 00:31:09,579
You got three beams though, right?

537
00:31:09,579 --> 00:31:12,259
I do have three beams, so I'm gonna roll three times.

538
00:31:12,259 --> 00:31:13,900
That is a 15.

539
00:31:14,820 --> 00:31:15,660
That 15 will not hit.

540
00:31:16,700 --> 00:31:19,420
That is a 20, not natural.

541
00:31:19,420 --> 00:31:20,259
Yes, that will hit.

542
00:31:20,259 --> 00:31:21,100
So you get two beams.

543
00:31:21,100 --> 00:31:22,259
Okay, so I have two beams.

544
00:31:22,259 --> 00:31:24,259
I'm going to, do I see two off to my right,

545
00:31:24,259 --> 00:31:25,380
one to my left?

546
00:31:25,380 --> 00:31:26,980
You see one archer up in the trees.

547
00:31:26,980 --> 00:31:27,980
There's the guy in front of you

548
00:31:27,980 --> 00:31:29,860
and you see movement from the trees

549
00:31:29,860 --> 00:31:31,900
lower down off to your left.

550
00:31:31,900 --> 00:31:34,340
All right, well, I'm going to hit

551
00:31:34,340 --> 00:31:39,340
with both Eldritch Blasts the person up in the trees

552
00:31:40,060 --> 00:31:41,980
because I kind of want to leave the other guy alive

553
00:31:42,019 --> 00:31:43,380
because I want him to know.

554
00:31:44,420 --> 00:31:45,660
Okay.

555
00:31:45,660 --> 00:31:49,779
I was like, ah, this is the crazy Amy playing D&D,

556
00:31:49,779 --> 00:31:50,620
I remember.

557
00:31:50,620 --> 00:31:51,460
I'm into it.

558
00:31:52,620 --> 00:31:56,660
So the damage on this guy is one D10.

559
00:31:56,660 --> 00:31:58,980
Yeah, one D10 force damage.

560
00:32:01,819 --> 00:32:05,819
Ah, two, ooh, and a nine.

561
00:32:05,819 --> 00:32:09,779
So 11 force damage to dude in tree.

562
00:32:09,779 --> 00:32:11,779
Please tell me to knock him from the tree.

563
00:32:12,619 --> 00:32:15,339
So both bolts fly from your hands and-

564
00:32:15,339 --> 00:32:16,779
They're purple.

565
00:32:16,779 --> 00:32:19,099
Both purple bolts fly from your hands

566
00:32:19,099 --> 00:32:20,819
and strike the archer

567
00:32:20,819 --> 00:32:23,500
and you hear him yell out

568
00:32:23,500 --> 00:32:27,220
as an arrow goes flying up into the canopy

569
00:32:27,220 --> 00:32:28,579
on the other side

570
00:32:28,579 --> 00:32:31,019
and you hear crackling branches

571
00:32:31,019 --> 00:32:35,339
as he falls to the ground and takes another

572
00:32:37,460 --> 00:32:40,379
two damage as he hits the ground.

573
00:32:40,379 --> 00:32:41,220
So it's 11.

574
00:32:41,940 --> 00:32:43,379
Yeah.

575
00:32:43,379 --> 00:32:46,220
The guy out in front, it is his turn, Davey.

576
00:32:46,220 --> 00:32:47,139
It is Davey's turn.

577
00:32:47,139 --> 00:32:48,180
Bring it, Davey.

578
00:32:48,180 --> 00:32:50,139
And he looks down at his foot

579
00:32:50,139 --> 00:32:52,819
and he's trying to figure out how to pull.

580
00:32:54,180 --> 00:32:56,579
He's just making motions towards his foot.

581
00:32:56,579 --> 00:33:00,180
He's trying to figure out how to get this

582
00:33:00,180 --> 00:33:03,660
out of his foot and you see him break it off.

583
00:33:03,660 --> 00:33:05,059
Okay.

584
00:33:05,059 --> 00:33:06,460
Oh yeah, he's not pulling it either way.

585
00:33:06,460 --> 00:33:08,339
I know, I was gonna question his sanity

586
00:33:08,339 --> 00:33:09,180
at that point.

587
00:33:09,180 --> 00:33:10,900
You see him break it off

588
00:33:10,900 --> 00:33:13,940
and lift his foot up over the last bit

589
00:33:13,940 --> 00:33:17,420
and he's, oh, God, you guys are terrible.

590
00:33:17,420 --> 00:33:19,220
And he pulls and draws his sword

591
00:33:19,220 --> 00:33:20,940
and begins rushing the carriage.

592
00:33:27,539 --> 00:33:28,700
It's the middle time.

593
00:33:29,580 --> 00:33:32,220
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo.

594
00:33:32,220 --> 00:33:33,060
It's middle time.

595
00:33:33,060 --> 00:33:34,860
It's middle time.

596
00:33:34,860 --> 00:33:36,820
Welcome back to the middle, everybody.

597
00:33:36,820 --> 00:33:37,700
This is where we tell you

598
00:33:37,700 --> 00:33:38,980
about all the crazy cool things

599
00:33:38,980 --> 00:33:40,860
we have going on in September

600
00:33:40,860 --> 00:33:44,019
has been a wild and crazy.

601
00:33:44,019 --> 00:33:45,299
It's been a wild ride, you guys.

602
00:33:45,299 --> 00:33:46,140
It really has been.

603
00:33:46,140 --> 00:33:47,700
Yeah, it really has been.

604
00:33:49,059 --> 00:33:52,740
First off, let us tell you to stop slamming doors

605
00:33:52,740 --> 00:33:54,900
as soon as I start talking.

606
00:33:54,900 --> 00:33:57,620
You could have waited to talk as you saw me

607
00:33:57,620 --> 00:33:58,460
trying to pull my dice away.

608
00:33:58,460 --> 00:34:00,099
No, because you start moving as soon as I start talking.

609
00:34:00,099 --> 00:34:00,940
That's not true.

610
00:34:00,940 --> 00:34:02,900
First off, let me tell you

611
00:34:02,900 --> 00:34:05,500
about all of the cool new Patreon tiers.

612
00:34:05,500 --> 00:34:07,019
And by me, I mean all of us.

613
00:34:07,019 --> 00:34:07,860
All of us.

614
00:34:07,900 --> 00:34:09,539
Because we're a group.

615
00:34:09,539 --> 00:34:11,820
We have new Patreon tiers.

616
00:34:11,820 --> 00:34:13,059
And we want you to go check them out,

617
00:34:13,059 --> 00:34:15,700
Patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast.

618
00:34:15,700 --> 00:34:18,539
We have a whole ton of new exclusive content going on.

619
00:34:18,539 --> 00:34:19,380
Like what, Tom?

620
00:34:19,380 --> 00:34:22,140
Tell us, give us a little hint, hint, nudge, nudge.

621
00:34:22,140 --> 00:34:22,980
What's some of that?

622
00:34:22,980 --> 00:34:24,220
Is that sweet goodnesses?

623
00:34:24,220 --> 00:34:26,900
Exclusive content up the yin yang.

624
00:34:26,900 --> 00:34:28,740
Let me tell you that much.

625
00:34:28,740 --> 00:34:32,180
We have what, 20 plus hours.

626
00:34:32,180 --> 00:34:33,780
I'm sure we've got to be close to 30

627
00:34:33,780 --> 00:34:34,620
by the end of this month.

628
00:34:34,620 --> 00:34:35,460
Yeah, there we go.

629
00:34:35,460 --> 00:34:37,380
We've got all sorts of bonus content for you

630
00:34:37,380 --> 00:34:38,820
in the Patreon tiers.

631
00:34:38,820 --> 00:34:43,220
And you can get in on that for as little as $2 per month.

632
00:34:43,220 --> 00:34:44,099
That's all it takes.

633
00:34:44,099 --> 00:34:46,740
That show you get at $2 a month, Tom runs.

634
00:34:46,740 --> 00:34:48,140
Oh, that's the one.

635
00:34:48,140 --> 00:34:49,460
That's the one.

636
00:34:49,460 --> 00:34:52,780
Yeah, we do a game called The Side Scrollers,

637
00:34:52,780 --> 00:34:55,180
that IDM where Russ, Amy, and Carla

638
00:34:55,180 --> 00:34:57,300
play three completely different characters.

639
00:34:57,300 --> 00:34:59,220
Same world that we're set in,

640
00:34:59,220 --> 00:35:01,780
but nothing to do with the other timelines

641
00:35:01,780 --> 00:35:03,320
that we got going on.

642
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:05,780
Trust me, we just played two episodes coming up.

643
00:35:05,820 --> 00:35:09,340
It has nothing to do with anything that we have going on.

644
00:35:09,340 --> 00:35:10,180
Nope.

645
00:35:10,180 --> 00:35:12,460
No, it is out there, man.

646
00:35:12,460 --> 00:35:13,460
But very fun.

647
00:35:13,460 --> 00:35:14,820
And we want you to go check that out.

648
00:35:14,820 --> 00:35:17,940
At the $5 tier, we got some other bonus stuff.

649
00:35:17,940 --> 00:35:19,500
What do we got over there, Carla?

650
00:35:19,500 --> 00:35:21,860
Well, more bonus content.

651
00:35:21,860 --> 00:35:26,220
We are just giving you too much of us, maybe.

652
00:35:26,220 --> 00:35:27,040
Couldn't be.

653
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:27,880
Couldn't be too much.

654
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:28,700
Couldn't be.

655
00:35:28,700 --> 00:35:31,740
Dumbgeons Down Time, where we kind of do

656
00:35:31,740 --> 00:35:35,380
a quick little recap about each episode

657
00:35:36,180 --> 00:35:38,059
about what we thought about it,

658
00:35:38,059 --> 00:35:39,820
how funny we think we are,

659
00:35:39,820 --> 00:35:42,059
how much we cried, you know, whatever.

660
00:35:42,059 --> 00:35:42,900
All that usual stuff.

661
00:35:42,900 --> 00:35:43,740
Lots of emotions.

662
00:35:43,740 --> 00:35:44,619
All that usual stuff.

663
00:35:44,619 --> 00:35:46,740
So that comes out every week.

664
00:35:46,740 --> 00:35:48,579
And then all the other stuff

665
00:35:48,579 --> 00:35:51,180
plus other extra bonus episodes

666
00:35:51,180 --> 00:35:54,460
and you get early access to our new podcast.

667
00:35:54,460 --> 00:35:55,380
It's coming soon.

668
00:35:55,380 --> 00:35:58,700
It's called Facing Fate, so just five bucks.

669
00:35:58,700 --> 00:35:59,700
Plus all the stuff that was

670
00:35:59,700 --> 00:36:01,579
in that $2 tier as well, of course.

671
00:36:01,579 --> 00:36:03,860
There's a whole bunch of other great stuff.

672
00:36:03,860 --> 00:36:06,260
We even put, one of the biggest feedback

673
00:36:06,260 --> 00:36:08,340
was that people wanted to play games with us.

674
00:36:08,340 --> 00:36:09,160
And you know what?

675
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:10,780
We're doing that this month.

676
00:36:10,780 --> 00:36:11,740
It's very exciting.

677
00:36:11,740 --> 00:36:15,220
Arguably one of our most or the most exciting tier,

678
00:36:15,220 --> 00:36:18,579
I think, is our $100 tier,

679
00:36:18,579 --> 00:36:22,780
which is our high in the sky tier, if you will.

680
00:36:22,780 --> 00:36:27,620
And you get to play in a monthly two hour max,

681
00:36:27,620 --> 00:36:31,760
one shot with at least two cast members,

682
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:33,460
one DM and one player.

683
00:36:34,059 --> 00:36:36,500
The audio will then be released to the community

684
00:36:36,500 --> 00:36:38,500
as an extra monthly episode,

685
00:36:38,500 --> 00:36:41,820
but just ultra special because we get to play with you

686
00:36:41,820 --> 00:36:44,500
and we have someone playing with us this month.

687
00:36:44,500 --> 00:36:45,340
Oh my God.

688
00:36:45,340 --> 00:36:46,500
Yeah, it's gonna be really awesome.

689
00:36:46,500 --> 00:36:47,500
Oh my God.

690
00:36:47,500 --> 00:36:48,659
You know who you are.

691
00:36:48,659 --> 00:36:50,780
It's super exciting, but there's room for more.

692
00:36:50,780 --> 00:36:52,659
So you can come play too, if you want.

693
00:36:52,659 --> 00:36:53,780
There are, yeah.

694
00:36:53,780 --> 00:36:55,740
There can be how many people?

695
00:36:55,740 --> 00:36:56,579
Four.

696
00:36:56,579 --> 00:36:58,699
There can be four people who join us.

697
00:36:58,699 --> 00:37:00,699
One thing to clarify with that tier

698
00:37:00,699 --> 00:37:02,940
is that you don't have to sign up with it

699
00:37:02,940 --> 00:37:03,900
for every month.

700
00:37:03,900 --> 00:37:06,059
We understand that it is a very expensive tier.

701
00:37:06,059 --> 00:37:07,500
That would be lucrative.

702
00:37:07,500 --> 00:37:10,059
We've had many, many questions as to, you know,

703
00:37:10,059 --> 00:37:11,700
how long do I gotta stay?

704
00:37:11,700 --> 00:37:14,099
You pay for a month, you play a game,

705
00:37:14,099 --> 00:37:16,380
and then you can drop down to a lower tier

706
00:37:16,380 --> 00:37:18,139
wherever you're more comfortable.

707
00:37:18,139 --> 00:37:19,940
So if it's a special treat or it's something,

708
00:37:19,940 --> 00:37:22,260
if it's something you wanna do for the rest of forever.

709
00:37:22,260 --> 00:37:23,099
Sure.

710
00:37:23,099 --> 00:37:23,920
We won't stop.

711
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,920
God, I will play with you every month.

712
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:27,840
In the game.

713
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:28,679
In the,

714
00:37:29,679 --> 00:37:32,380
in the sandbox, which wherever.

715
00:37:32,380 --> 00:37:33,340
No.

716
00:37:33,340 --> 00:37:36,380
We will play a game with you every month,

717
00:37:36,380 --> 00:37:38,180
if that's what you want.

718
00:37:38,180 --> 00:37:39,079
That's what we want.

719
00:37:39,079 --> 00:37:40,740
Patreon.com slash dumb dragon cats.

720
00:37:40,740 --> 00:37:42,500
Go check out all those sweet new tiers.

721
00:37:42,500 --> 00:37:44,500
Lots of other great cool stuff up there.

722
00:37:44,500 --> 00:37:46,539
Now some other things that we've got going on

723
00:37:46,539 --> 00:37:49,460
in Edmonton, which is where Amy and I are.

724
00:37:49,460 --> 00:37:50,900
There's this thing called Edmonton Expo,

725
00:37:50,900 --> 00:37:52,780
which is like our Comic-Con here.

726
00:37:52,780 --> 00:37:54,140
And we're gonna be playing a live show there

727
00:37:54,140 --> 00:37:54,980
all four of us.

728
00:37:54,980 --> 00:37:56,460
Wow.

729
00:37:56,460 --> 00:37:58,019
If you don't speak Russese,

730
00:37:58,019 --> 00:38:00,460
that he means we are gonna be playing a live show

731
00:38:00,579 --> 00:38:03,300
and Tom and Carla are going to be coming to join us.

732
00:38:03,300 --> 00:38:04,139
Yeah.

733
00:38:04,139 --> 00:38:05,340
That's what I said.

734
00:38:05,340 --> 00:38:07,780
Some people's ears don't reach that register of.

735
00:38:07,780 --> 00:38:08,619
Sorry.

736
00:38:08,619 --> 00:38:09,740
But the dogs listening will love it.

737
00:38:09,740 --> 00:38:11,220
Yeah, the dogs are really into it.

738
00:38:11,220 --> 00:38:14,320
We will be in Edmonton doing a live show

739
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,340
on Saturday, September 21st.

740
00:38:17,340 --> 00:38:18,659
At 12.45.

741
00:38:18,659 --> 00:38:20,699
We would love to see you there.

742
00:38:20,699 --> 00:38:22,740
We are so excited to see each other

743
00:38:22,740 --> 00:38:24,619
and play a game around the table,

744
00:38:24,619 --> 00:38:27,780
but it would be extra dope if you were there.

745
00:38:27,780 --> 00:38:28,619
Sure would be.

746
00:38:28,619 --> 00:38:30,699
Do you wanna try to record the content?

747
00:38:30,699 --> 00:38:32,179
We are going to record the content.

748
00:38:32,179 --> 00:38:34,099
We are going to record the content.

749
00:38:34,099 --> 00:38:34,940
So if you.

750
00:38:36,339 --> 00:38:37,179
No, go ahead.

751
00:38:37,179 --> 00:38:38,000
No, you do it.

752
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:38,839
You really wanna say it.

753
00:38:38,839 --> 00:38:39,679
You do it.

754
00:38:39,679 --> 00:38:40,500
No, you wanna say it so bad.

755
00:38:41,539 --> 00:38:44,099
So if you aren't able to come and see us,

756
00:38:44,099 --> 00:38:45,940
we will get you that audio

757
00:38:45,940 --> 00:38:49,659
and it will be like you're experiencing it with us there.

758
00:38:54,179 --> 00:38:55,859
Well, now you can talk.

759
00:38:55,859 --> 00:38:57,400
God damn it.

760
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:00,240
Yeah, so we got that live show going on

761
00:39:00,240 --> 00:39:01,160
which is gonna be super sweet.

762
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,240
But then it was also announced this week

763
00:39:03,240 --> 00:39:06,079
that the new podcast of from Wizards of the Coast

764
00:39:06,079 --> 00:39:07,639
that's starting next week.

765
00:39:07,639 --> 00:39:08,480
And guess what?

766
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:09,320
We're a part of that too.

767
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:10,160
Yeah, we are.

768
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:10,980
Episode two.

769
00:39:10,980 --> 00:39:12,559
We are episode two.

770
00:39:12,559 --> 00:39:15,079
Come with us on a trip into hell.

771
00:39:15,079 --> 00:39:17,019
As far as the relay goes,

772
00:39:17,019 --> 00:39:19,480
I don't know what they call that second position.

773
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:21,000
It's not the anchor.

774
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:22,559
It's the second.

775
00:39:22,559 --> 00:39:25,119
I think it's probably just the second position

776
00:39:25,119 --> 00:39:27,500
in that seven podcast relay.

777
00:39:27,500 --> 00:39:28,339
Yeah.

778
00:39:28,339 --> 00:39:29,159
Right.

779
00:39:29,159 --> 00:39:30,799
Second position, but not second fiddle.

780
00:39:30,799 --> 00:39:31,639
So that's gonna be released

781
00:39:31,639 --> 00:39:35,480
on the Dungeon Delve podcast RSS feed.

782
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:37,380
I'll link it down in the description.

783
00:39:37,380 --> 00:39:38,219
Check that out.

784
00:39:38,219 --> 00:39:39,199
There'll be seven episodes

785
00:39:39,199 --> 00:39:41,440
along with podcast North by North Quest,

786
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,319
How We Roll, Royal Nerd Theater,

787
00:39:43,319 --> 00:39:45,799
Dungeon Drunks, Red Moon Role Playing,

788
00:39:45,799 --> 00:39:47,119
and The Broad Swords.

789
00:39:47,119 --> 00:39:49,539
And it was organized by Victoria Rogers

790
00:39:49,539 --> 00:39:50,960
of The Broad Swords

791
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:54,440
and Daniel Kwan of Asians Represent.

792
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:55,840
We're very excited to be part of that.

793
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:57,880
Ours is episode two.

794
00:39:57,880 --> 00:39:59,519
And no, I can't tell you any spoilers

795
00:39:59,519 --> 00:40:01,000
because I don't want to spoil the content.

796
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:02,159
So you just gotta listen to it.

797
00:40:02,159 --> 00:40:03,000
But it's fun.

798
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,240
But it's so much fun.

799
00:40:05,240 --> 00:40:07,380
Anyways, we've talked you in your ear off for too long.

800
00:40:07,380 --> 00:40:10,920
So get back to that episode.

801
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:12,119
Hope you're not crying too much.

802
00:40:12,119 --> 00:40:13,079
Sorry.

803
00:40:13,079 --> 00:40:13,920
Not sorry.

804
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:16,679
Bye.

805
00:40:16,679 --> 00:40:17,519
Bye.

806
00:40:17,519 --> 00:40:18,360
Bye.

807
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:19,720
Flint, it's your turn.

808
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:22,400
And how close is he?

809
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:26,800
How far away did you guys stop from him?

810
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:29,800
I would say pretty close.

811
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:31,760
20 feet, somewhere in that neighborhood.

812
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:32,599
Sure.

813
00:40:32,599 --> 00:40:33,920
Yeah, then he's within 15.

814
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:35,120
He's moving towards.

815
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,599
I'm gonna do that really cool thing in kung fu movies

816
00:40:39,599 --> 00:40:43,160
where the hero just like slowly approaches

817
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,360
and you're like, oh, I'm gonna do that.

818
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:46,200
I'm gonna do that.

819
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:47,039
I'm gonna do that.

820
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:49,239
And you're like, oh, no.

821
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:50,759
Something bad's gonna happen.

822
00:40:52,679 --> 00:40:56,960
So yeah, I'm going to swing my axe.

823
00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:01,360
Oh, I guess I'm using my moist tongue long sword

824
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:03,119
since it's back in my possession.

825
00:41:03,119 --> 00:41:04,480
Yep.

826
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:07,159
I'm gonna, under my breath, say moist

827
00:41:07,159 --> 00:41:08,980
because it's still embarrassing for Flint

828
00:41:08,980 --> 00:41:11,079
when he has to say it out loud.

829
00:41:11,079 --> 00:41:14,119
But is it really intimidating if you're walking slowly

830
00:41:14,119 --> 00:41:16,840
towards him and you just go moist?

831
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:18,640
All right, yeah, you know what?

832
00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:19,480
Let's do it.

833
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:20,320
Roll with it.

834
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:21,800
Changed opinion on this.

835
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,280
As Flint slowly walks towards this man,

836
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:26,880
he just kind of, not super loudly,

837
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:28,400
but looks him right in the eyes.

838
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,880
He's walking towards him and just says moist.

839
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:32,720
And then like.

840
00:41:32,720 --> 00:41:34,920
Which kind of stops him in his tracks

841
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,920
and he's like, what?

842
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:38,840
Yeah.

843
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:41,960
Hey, don't kill him all the way dead, okay, Flint?

844
00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:42,800
Okay.

845
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:45,760
Okay.

846
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:47,840
Can do.

847
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:51,760
Russ, I would like to not kill him all the way dead

848
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:53,000
if at all possible.

849
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:54,200
Non-lethal damage, got it.

850
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:55,440
Yeah.

851
00:41:55,440 --> 00:42:00,200
Okay, so first attack is a 24.

852
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:01,280
Yeah.

853
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:02,400
Yep, that will hit.

854
00:42:04,079 --> 00:42:05,440
It's 14 damage.

855
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:06,600
Oh, plus there's cold damage.

856
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:07,880
Hang on here.

857
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:12,880
14 plus an eight, so 22 damage.

858
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,079
Eight of which is cold.

859
00:42:16,119 --> 00:42:18,400
Okay, so you strike into,

860
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,480
you move forward slowly,

861
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:25,360
stupefying Dave with your moist.

862
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:30,360
And strike into his arm and shoulder there.

863
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:36,239
And the skin, it becomes blackened from the cold damage.

864
00:42:37,279 --> 00:42:40,639
And he's like, ah, that's not a big guttural, ah.

865
00:42:42,759 --> 00:42:44,880
And he drops to a knee.

866
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:46,960
He's still fighting the good fight?

867
00:42:48,079 --> 00:42:49,559
Well, I mean, he's dropped to a knee

868
00:42:49,559 --> 00:42:52,280
and he's got a pretty big open gaping flesh wound,

869
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:57,200
but he's still alive because of non-lethal damage,

870
00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:58,240
but still conscious.

871
00:42:58,240 --> 00:42:59,079
Okay.

872
00:43:01,039 --> 00:43:05,360
Next attack was only a 14.

873
00:43:06,519 --> 00:43:08,720
14 will not hit.

874
00:43:08,720 --> 00:43:10,200
Goes off of his armor.

875
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:11,920
And third attack's a 21.

876
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:13,920
That will hit, yeah.

877
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:14,760
Okay.

878
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:23,360
So that is six and another six of cold damage.

879
00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:25,200
So 12, all said and done.

880
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,200
At this point, Thea puts her feet up,

881
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:30,880
like up, you know?

882
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:32,000
Like if she were at a desk,

883
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:33,800
her feet would be on the desk.

884
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:35,519
I'm not sure how that works at a carriage.

885
00:43:35,519 --> 00:43:37,840
Also, is Tiny pulling our carriage?

886
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:39,840
Because I really feel like he would be.

887
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:40,680
You tell me.

888
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:42,240
Yeah, he is.

889
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,600
So yeah, absolutely Tiny is pulling your carriage.

890
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:49,600
Jared, the other two, Buttercup and Tiny, Buttercup, and.

891
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:52,320
Clip clop, Russ.

892
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:54,240
Clip clop, clip clop.

893
00:43:54,240 --> 00:43:56,600
I didn't prepare for the horses to come back.

894
00:43:58,200 --> 00:43:59,480
Sure, we don't need all three,

895
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:01,400
but I say we have all three anyway,

896
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:02,800
because it's nostalgia.

897
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:07,800
Also, probably wanna give Buttercup back to Jared.

898
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:09,880
You strike again into Davey,

899
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:14,880
more blackened, like frostbitten wound along his other side.

900
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:19,160
And he drops his longsword into the mud

901
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:20,880
and he looks up at you and says,

902
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:22,640
okay, okay, we're sorry.

903
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:27,960
You hear where the archer fell,

904
00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:29,800
kind of a groaned, oh, oh.

905
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,160
As you hear somebody trying to stand up.

906
00:44:36,119 --> 00:44:40,199
Flint, you catch an arrow in the back.

907
00:44:40,199 --> 00:44:42,519
Oh, I guess they're not sorry enough.

908
00:44:42,519 --> 00:44:44,079
From off to the left.

909
00:44:46,199 --> 00:44:50,359
And you're gonna take seven piercing damage as this,

910
00:44:50,359 --> 00:44:52,599
oh, no, that was a crit 20.

911
00:44:52,599 --> 00:44:57,599
Sorry, that is 16 piercing damage

912
00:44:57,839 --> 00:45:00,519
as this goes straight through your shoulder.

913
00:45:00,519 --> 00:45:02,719
Okay, I'm gonna down that by three

914
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:04,519
because of my heavy armor mastery.

915
00:45:05,199 --> 00:45:09,239
You've taken the bolt and then you hear,

916
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:11,239
coming off to the left there,

917
00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:14,799
heavy footsteps and a guttural call

918
00:45:14,799 --> 00:45:19,799
as a man with a ax comes running out towards you.

919
00:45:20,639 --> 00:45:25,639
Swinging, that's going to be a 23 to hit.

920
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:27,279
Oh, yeah.

921
00:45:29,119 --> 00:45:33,879
That's gonna be 14 slashing damage to you.

922
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:35,920
I will take 11 of that.

923
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:40,360
There you have an axman, Davey, in front of you.

924
00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:42,440
Thea's chilling like a villain behind.

925
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:43,400
Chilling like a villain,

926
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:45,519
although you have seen the arrow kind of go through,

927
00:45:45,519 --> 00:45:46,920
well, not kind of.

928
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:47,760
Come out and go through.

929
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:48,840
I'm watching still.

930
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:50,640
And we're back to the top and it is your turn, Thea.

931
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:52,960
You didn't close your eyes when you kicked your feet up.

932
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,079
That does sound like something I would do.

933
00:45:55,079 --> 00:45:59,360
So I hop down and I walk out

934
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,440
and as I do so,

935
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:05,720
is there a way I can like prepare a spell

936
00:46:05,720 --> 00:46:07,960
and make it look fucking super cool?

937
00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:12,880
Like, think like Storm in X-Men,

938
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:14,480
like how she would raise up off,

939
00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,679
her eyes would go white, things would get weird,

940
00:46:16,679 --> 00:46:18,079
you know shit's about to happen,

941
00:46:18,079 --> 00:46:19,240
but it doesn't quite happen.

942
00:46:19,240 --> 00:46:21,079
Okay, tell me what you do.

943
00:46:21,079 --> 00:46:21,920
Okay.

944
00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:23,320
So tell me what you wanna do

945
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:26,200
and then we'll just figure out how it, yeah.

946
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,679
Because I'm really going for an intimidation tactic here.

947
00:46:28,679 --> 00:46:31,759
Okay, so we'll go for an intimidation move,

948
00:46:31,759 --> 00:46:36,159
but you're using a spell before you release it.

949
00:46:36,159 --> 00:46:37,000
Exactly.

950
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:38,599
I'm gonna use call lightning.

951
00:46:38,599 --> 00:46:42,039
So I'm going to take a page out of Flint's book

952
00:46:42,039 --> 00:46:44,239
and I'm gonna walk forward creepily.

953
00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:45,639
Actually first, because okay,

954
00:46:45,639 --> 00:46:47,119
here's what I'm imagining, right?

955
00:46:47,119 --> 00:46:48,239
So we've got like,

956
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:53,919
poor Newlar's body in the back, the carriage.

957
00:46:53,919 --> 00:46:56,079
We've got Tiny in the middle,

958
00:46:56,079 --> 00:46:57,400
the two other like,

959
00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:00,199
seemingly itty bitty ponies to either side, right?

960
00:47:00,199 --> 00:47:03,799
Well, I hop up and I walk on top of Tiny.

961
00:47:03,799 --> 00:47:05,840
So I'm huge and I'm up there, right?

962
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,480
And so I put my hands out to the side

963
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:10,319
and because it was already raining

964
00:47:10,319 --> 00:47:12,639
and very scarily like,

965
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:16,400
you know, outside, I'm gonna call lightning.

966
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:20,319
And so I'm going to create a storm cloud right above us,

967
00:47:20,319 --> 00:47:24,239
like all the scary booming, crashing,

968
00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:25,799
you can see it all.

969
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:28,400
And I look down at them and I say,

970
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:32,960
I will give you one chance to surrender

971
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:35,039
to the decimators of dragons.

972
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:42,000
Make an intimidation roll.

973
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:44,400
I have to fucking roll after all that?

974
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:45,240
Yeah.

975
00:47:45,240 --> 00:47:46,080
It's like a one.

976
00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:47,440
They're like, I'm not scared of you.

977
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:48,280
You're fine.

978
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:50,640
It's a one.

979
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:51,960
They're not scared of me.

980
00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:53,800
I would also just like to say.

981
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:56,840
You didn't say anything.

982
00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:58,120
It's an audio podcast.

983
00:47:58,120 --> 00:47:59,440
Well, some people are watching.

984
00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:00,840
I just showed my shirt.

985
00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,480
It is the doomed and determined shirt

986
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:05,400
with a D20 fold with ones.

987
00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:07,680
Go to our T public store to get that one.

988
00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:09,480
Yeah, get one of those.

989
00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,720
If it represents you as much as it represents me.

990
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:16,320
Oh, well, okay.

991
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:17,160
Plus your intimidation.

992
00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:18,480
You don't get a natural one.

993
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:19,320
Like that doesn't count for.

994
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:20,160
Oh, okay.

995
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:21,200
Fine, it's a three.

996
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:22,039
Okay.

997
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:26,960
They see you and you see kind of a hint of fear

998
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:29,239
and then they're like, we can take you.

999
00:48:30,279 --> 00:48:31,920
And you don't scare them at all.

1000
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:33,519
All right, well then.

1001
00:48:33,519 --> 00:48:34,960
Whose turn is Donnie going on?

1002
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:36,960
We didn't determine that.

1003
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:38,759
Cause Donnie's got to go on a turn.

1004
00:48:40,599 --> 00:48:42,679
Should Donnie go on my turn?

1005
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:44,920
Sure.

1006
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:46,480
Hey, no, wait a minute.

1007
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:48,400
You get three turns.

1008
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:49,440
I want Donnie.

1009
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:50,279
Okay.

1010
00:48:52,039 --> 00:48:53,679
Right now we're fighting over like custody

1011
00:48:53,679 --> 00:48:57,360
of like a poor orphaned child.

1012
00:48:57,360 --> 00:48:58,440
There's a stats there.

1013
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:00,880
So what do you want them to do?

1014
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:02,840
Okay, well, while I'm being scary,

1015
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:04,279
I'll say, oh, I don't scare you.

1016
00:49:04,279 --> 00:49:05,360
Well, maybe he will.

1017
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:11,440
He is going to flat forward and use weakening breath.

1018
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:18,039
Cause I mean, in the back of our minds,

1019
00:49:18,039 --> 00:49:19,400
we know we're good guys,

1020
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:23,320
but these guys are being dill holes.

1021
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:26,320
And while I prefer not to kill any of them.

1022
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:27,160
Sure.

1023
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:28,160
I obviously couldn't intimidate them.

1024
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:30,240
So who are you targeting?

1025
00:49:30,240 --> 00:49:32,360
If you're targeting the two guys on the ground by Flint,

1026
00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:33,559
you're going to get Flint as well.

1027
00:49:33,559 --> 00:49:35,320
Oh, well, I don't want him to get Flint.

1028
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:36,400
So maybe he's just going to,

1029
00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:38,039
he's just got to fly and bite.

1030
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:41,079
He's going to bite Axeman.

1031
00:49:42,720 --> 00:49:43,559
Okay.

1032
00:49:43,559 --> 00:49:44,400
I'm not going to use that.

1033
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:46,280
The one that rolled a one.

1034
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:48,160
Well, that only rolled a six.

1035
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:50,599
Plus six is 12.

1036
00:49:52,159 --> 00:49:53,000
Nope.

1037
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:53,839
12 does not hit,

1038
00:49:53,839 --> 00:49:57,639
but I'll give you another intimidation roll on that.

1039
00:49:59,679 --> 00:50:02,279
With Donnie's, what's intimidation?

1040
00:50:02,279 --> 00:50:03,199
Charisma.

1041
00:50:03,199 --> 00:50:04,480
Donnie gets a plus three.

1042
00:50:06,399 --> 00:50:07,839
17.

1043
00:50:07,839 --> 00:50:09,879
As they don't seem phased,

1044
00:50:09,879 --> 00:50:14,079
which is ridiculous by your call lightning.

1045
00:50:14,079 --> 00:50:18,759
Out of the carriage comes a medium sized gold dragon

1046
00:50:19,799 --> 00:50:22,360
and he flaps his wings up in the air,

1047
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:26,920
flies forward and basically swoops by the ax,

1048
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:28,920
which sends him stumbling backwards

1049
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:30,239
and he falls into the mud.

1050
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:31,279
He's now prone.

1051
00:50:31,279 --> 00:50:33,920
Davey as well falls backwards.

1052
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:38,679
And you hear from off in the trees, holy fuck.

1053
00:50:38,679 --> 00:50:41,199
And you hear footsteps.

1054
00:50:41,199 --> 00:50:43,480
One kind of scaling down a tree.

1055
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:47,119
The other one begins booking it into the woods.

1056
00:50:47,119 --> 00:50:50,400
So it is Davey's turn.

1057
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:51,920
Is it not my turn?

1058
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:52,760
You already went.

1059
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:53,840
Yours was called lightning.

1060
00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:55,039
I didn't use it.

1061
00:50:55,039 --> 00:50:55,960
Well, you were intimidating.

1062
00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:57,559
I thought that was it.

1063
00:50:57,559 --> 00:50:59,039
No, if they weren't scared of it,

1064
00:50:59,039 --> 00:51:00,440
I was going to burn them with it.

1065
00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:01,280
Oh, fuck.

1066
00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:02,360
Okay.

1067
00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:03,880
I thought we were just jumping backwards

1068
00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:05,519
at Donnie there for a minute.

1069
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:08,800
I thought you were done your stuff.

1070
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:10,679
No, cause if it didn't scare them,

1071
00:51:10,679 --> 00:51:13,320
I was absolutely going to use it.

1072
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:15,039
Okay, so what do you want to do?

1073
00:51:15,039 --> 00:51:17,200
Well, I'm going to call fucking lightning.

1074
00:51:17,200 --> 00:51:18,039
Okay.

1075
00:51:19,720 --> 00:51:22,000
Oh, it just happens.

1076
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:23,280
That's nice.

1077
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:25,039
So who are you aiming for?

1078
00:51:25,039 --> 00:51:27,600
I am going to,

1079
00:51:29,240 --> 00:51:31,960
oh, God, I don't want to kill anybody.

1080
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:37,280
There's no, with magical damage, there's no-

1081
00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:38,320
I can't hold back.

1082
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:39,519
Aim for the ax, man.

1083
00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:42,760
He's falling prone.

1084
00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:45,160
He hasn't taken any damage yet.

1085
00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:46,000
All right.

1086
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:50,280
So I point to the ax, man,

1087
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,800
and a bolt of lightning flashes down,

1088
00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:56,120
and he's not near anybody, is he?

1089
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:57,240
No, he's fallen prone,

1090
00:51:57,240 --> 00:51:59,400
so he's like 10 feet away from Flint,

1091
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:01,320
five to 10 feet away.

1092
00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:03,960
So you must take a dexterity saving throw.

1093
00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:04,880
Nope.

1094
00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:05,720
Good.

1095
00:52:05,720 --> 00:52:06,560
That's like a six.

1096
00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:07,400
So 3d10.

1097
00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:08,520
Also, if you're prone,

1098
00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:11,600
I would imagine you would have like disadvantage at best.

1099
00:52:12,039 --> 00:52:12,960
I rolled a two.

1100
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:16,279
If you're outdoors in stormy conditions

1101
00:52:16,279 --> 00:52:17,279
when you cast the spell,

1102
00:52:17,279 --> 00:52:19,679
the spell gives you control over the existing storm

1103
00:52:19,679 --> 00:52:21,039
instead of creating a new one,

1104
00:52:21,039 --> 00:52:22,360
and under such conditions,

1105
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,199
the spell's damage increases by 1d10.

1106
00:52:25,199 --> 00:52:27,639
Canonically, there is a storm going on.

1107
00:52:27,639 --> 00:52:28,719
4d10.

1108
00:52:29,679 --> 00:52:30,519
Suck on that.

1109
00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:33,839
He's going to suck on that lightning.

1110
00:52:33,839 --> 00:52:34,759
He's going to suck.

1111
00:52:34,759 --> 00:52:36,480
I'm going to put my rod of lightning

1112
00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:37,599
right inside of his mouth,

1113
00:52:37,599 --> 00:52:39,039
and he's going to suck on it.

1114
00:52:39,039 --> 00:52:40,799
I apologize, listeners.

1115
00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:41,680
No, not really.

1116
00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:42,519
No, you don't.

1117
00:52:42,519 --> 00:52:43,360
Not really.

1118
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:48,039
Okay, here we go.

1119
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:56,320
That is 14, 17, 19 lightning damage.

1120
00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:01,240
I was expecting like 32,

1121
00:53:01,240 --> 00:53:02,840
but that was pretty still good.

1122
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:05,760
Your call lightning comes down

1123
00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:08,880
and like hits the chest plate

1124
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,119
of this axed warrior,

1125
00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:18,160
and it goes out into all of his limbs,

1126
00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:23,440
and he is now seemingly unconscious on the ground.

1127
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,680
There's smoke coming up from his chest.

1128
00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:28,720
You're uncertain if he's alive or dead.

1129
00:53:29,720 --> 00:53:30,640
He is in a dark place.

1130
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:32,119
It is Davey's turn,

1131
00:53:32,119 --> 00:53:35,480
and he sees all of this happen,

1132
00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:37,599
and he's fallen backwards into the mud

1133
00:53:37,599 --> 00:53:39,079
with Flint standing over top of him,

1134
00:53:39,079 --> 00:53:41,400
and he's like, okay, okay, okay.

1135
00:53:43,159 --> 00:53:44,000
You're good.

1136
00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:46,079
Don't hurt me.

1137
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:47,759
Last time you said that,

1138
00:53:47,759 --> 00:53:49,639
my buddy got an arrow in the back.

1139
00:53:49,639 --> 00:53:53,000
Yeah, I know, but didn't you hear them leave?

1140
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:54,599
There was only the two of them.

1141
00:53:57,679 --> 00:53:59,199
It's like I don't even have a weapon anymore.

1142
00:53:59,199 --> 00:54:00,480
I'm sorry.

1143
00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:01,920
Jump off the horse and go,

1144
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:05,239
you better not be related to Nulara Moonbrook.

1145
00:54:06,119 --> 00:54:06,960
Who?

1146
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:08,559
Good.

1147
00:54:13,159 --> 00:54:15,039
Wouldn't that be fucking awful

1148
00:54:15,039 --> 00:54:16,519
if I just like killed her?

1149
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:18,839
Would be less than ideal.

1150
00:54:18,839 --> 00:54:20,639
I mean, that would be kind of a dick move

1151
00:54:20,639 --> 00:54:23,480
for me to, anyways.

1152
00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:25,400
Sender brothers, whoops.

1153
00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:27,279
So where's your boss, friend?

1154
00:54:29,759 --> 00:54:33,960
You want to know where the boss is, do ya?

1155
00:54:34,639 --> 00:54:35,480
Mm-hmm.

1156
00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:40,400
Well, what if we just decided to say

1157
00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:43,079
that none of this ever happened?

1158
00:54:44,039 --> 00:54:47,480
I go on my way, and you go on your way.

1159
00:54:53,240 --> 00:54:54,079
I don't know.

1160
00:54:54,079 --> 00:54:56,480
I don't know, Flint, if he's learned his lesson.

1161
00:54:57,800 --> 00:54:58,920
I mean, let's see here.

1162
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:01,639
Arrow through the knee, or arrow through the foot.

1163
00:55:01,639 --> 00:55:02,480
Foot, yeah.

1164
00:55:02,519 --> 00:55:05,079
And a couple slices on the old chest.

1165
00:55:05,079 --> 00:55:05,920
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

1166
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:06,760
Yep.

1167
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:09,519
I mean, he's pissed himself, so.

1168
00:55:09,519 --> 00:55:10,559
Yeah, that's awkward.

1169
00:55:10,559 --> 00:55:12,480
I thought the rain would hide that.

1170
00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:13,400
It didn't.

1171
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:14,400
But, yeah.

1172
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:19,719
We are Flint and Thea and Nulara.

1173
00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:22,039
You owe your lives to us.

1174
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:27,400
Now in more ways than one.

1175
00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:32,400
Wait, you're Flint, Thea, and Nulara.

1176
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:34,320
Fuck.

1177
00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:37,960
Okay, yep.

1178
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:41,240
My boss's name is Axel, Axel Morelli.

1179
00:55:42,679 --> 00:55:47,679
And, and his headquarters is in Hellgate, Dell.

1180
00:55:51,559 --> 00:55:53,480
Kind of corner high forest.

1181
00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:58,119
Well, we're gonna tell you what.

1182
00:55:58,119 --> 00:56:00,400
If you see us coming to the compound,

1183
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:02,599
you get the fuck out of there,

1184
00:56:02,599 --> 00:56:04,800
because we're not gonna spare you again.

1185
00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:07,360
I'm not even gonna be at the compound.

1186
00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:08,200
Oh, good.

1187
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:09,800
Then get the fuck out of here, then.

1188
00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:13,240
Okay, okay, yep, yep, yep, okay.

1189
00:56:13,240 --> 00:56:14,639
Let's say something inspiring.

1190
00:56:14,639 --> 00:56:16,240
Honest living, motherfucker.

1191
00:56:16,240 --> 00:56:17,599
Yeah, yeah, okay.

1192
00:56:17,599 --> 00:56:18,440
Go.

1193
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:19,280
He.

1194
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:21,240
And take your smoky friend with you.

1195
00:56:21,240 --> 00:56:25,280
He, he, he scrambles up and out of the mud.

1196
00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:27,480
You see him move for his long sword.

1197
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:28,320
Nope.

1198
00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:29,160
Nope.

1199
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:31,000
You're gonna leave that there.

1200
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:32,160
Nope, that's, that's fair.

1201
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:33,000
That's ours now.

1202
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:33,840
That's understandable.

1203
00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:37,039
Okay, come on, come on, come on, come on, Benson.

1204
00:56:37,039 --> 00:56:38,920
Let's, let's go.

1205
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:40,559
He see him kind of drag his friend

1206
00:56:40,559 --> 00:56:41,480
and reach for a pulse.

1207
00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:42,800
He's like, he's dead.

1208
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:45,800
Maybe, maybe I could leave him here?

1209
00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:47,840
No, you take him with you.

1210
00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:49,080
It is your fault.

1211
00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:50,680
He's dragging him as you're saying this.

1212
00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:51,760
He's like, yeah, I got it.

1213
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:53,240
Bury him somewhere.

1214
00:56:53,240 --> 00:56:54,920
Okay, thank you.

1215
00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:57,519
Flint, I totally killed that guy.

1216
00:56:57,519 --> 00:56:58,639
I didn't mean to.

1217
00:56:58,639 --> 00:56:59,760
It's okay.

1218
00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:01,599
I mean, they kind of had it coming.

1219
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:04,119
Yeah, a little bit.

1220
00:57:04,119 --> 00:57:06,880
Plus that fucking cool lightning show thing you did.

1221
00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:07,720
I was intimidated.

1222
00:57:07,720 --> 00:57:08,559
I liked it.

1223
00:57:08,559 --> 00:57:09,720
Thank you.

1224
00:57:09,720 --> 00:57:10,559
Good God.

1225
00:57:12,720 --> 00:57:16,240
You pack yourselves back up, tend to your wounds

1226
00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:18,519
and head back on the trail.

1227
00:57:18,519 --> 00:57:21,119
It's another few hours.

1228
00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:24,320
Anything you need to do.

1229
00:57:24,519 --> 00:57:26,440
Anything notable that you guys want to discuss

1230
00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:31,440
before you get to the Moonbrook branch,

1231
00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:34,519
for lack of a better term.

1232
00:57:34,519 --> 00:57:36,519
Question, Russ, what was the name of that place

1233
00:57:36,519 --> 00:57:38,440
that the boss was in?

1234
00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:40,200
Helgate Dell.

1235
00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:43,200
Because I mean, maybe this guy's been hassling

1236
00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:45,200
New Lawner's family and we need to go take care of him.

1237
00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:46,039
We'll find out.

1238
00:57:46,039 --> 00:57:46,860
Maybe.

1239
00:57:48,559 --> 00:57:51,519
Would you say we're traveling for another four hours?

1240
00:57:51,519 --> 00:57:52,360
Sure.

1241
00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:57,240
I go into a trance at that time with the help of weed.

1242
00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:59,599
So no talking whatsoever.

1243
00:57:59,599 --> 00:58:00,440
Got it.

1244
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,280
No, yeah, I go into a trance.

1245
00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:06,480
I respond with mm-hmms and I gain back my spell slot.

1246
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:11,200
Short rest if you're so inclined there, Flynn.

1247
00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:13,280
I don't need it, I'm fine.

1248
00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:14,120
Barely got it.

1249
00:58:14,120 --> 00:58:15,960
I just wanted my spell slot back.

1250
00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:16,880
Cool, okay.

1251
00:58:18,519 --> 00:58:20,360
I mean, I'll give you an extra 15 minutes

1252
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:21,720
if there's anything you want to discuss

1253
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:23,140
before you get to.

1254
00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:27,280
I mean, I don't know.

1255
00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:31,720
I think we're both in the same boat, I think.

1256
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:35,560
Flynn, do you know if they sent a message ahead?

1257
00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:40,200
Does her family know we're coming?

1258
00:58:42,040 --> 00:58:43,720
I'm gonna say that yes.

1259
00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:44,840
We'll flash back to Leosin.

1260
00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:49,300
Leosin says, we're sending message ahead

1261
00:58:49,300 --> 00:58:50,560
before your arrival.

1262
00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:52,720
Cut it, it's fine.

1263
00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:53,840
Okay, good, because I really didn't want

1264
00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:54,800
to be the one to break the news.

1265
00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:56,680
Yeah, I didn't want to have to show up

1266
00:58:56,680 --> 00:59:01,600
and present our cargo for that.

1267
00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:03,920
Oh God, don't call her cargo.

1268
00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:05,800
Next time, say angry bees.

1269
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:07,880
What are you hearing back there?

1270
00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:09,000
Angry bees.

1271
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:10,300
Angry bees, of course.

1272
00:59:10,300 --> 00:59:12,360
That makes way more sense.

1273
00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:13,380
Yeah.

1274
00:59:13,380 --> 00:59:15,600
All right, I'm just gonna sit in silence

1275
00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:16,960
for a minute here.

1276
00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:21,040
You round a final bend that opens up

1277
00:59:21,079 --> 00:59:23,119
into a larger clearing.

1278
00:59:23,119 --> 00:59:25,320
You've seen from a little while ago,

1279
00:59:25,320 --> 00:59:28,960
smoke kind of rising, not like serious smoke,

1280
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:31,599
but like smoke from smoke stacks for fires

1281
00:59:31,599 --> 00:59:33,239
and that sort of thing.

1282
00:59:33,239 --> 00:59:34,920
And you come into the clearing

1283
00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:39,400
and you see a couple people tending to some

1284
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:44,400
of the crops surrounding the compLex, the area.

1285
00:59:46,460 --> 00:59:50,880
And they hear your carriage and look up

1286
00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:55,880
and you see a noticeable drop in their posture,

1287
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:00,680
in their body language.

1288
01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:06,860
And the two come to meet you on the trail

1289
01:00:06,860 --> 01:00:07,840
and they say,

1290
01:00:14,559 --> 01:00:17,320
haven't had many people through here recently

1291
01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:22,320
and it's, are you Flint and Thea?

1292
01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:24,280
Yeah.

1293
01:00:24,280 --> 01:00:25,100
Yes.

1294
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:27,320
Of course.

1295
01:00:29,160 --> 01:00:30,920
I'm John Zick.

1296
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:33,960
This is Rulin.

1297
01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:42,240
We received word that what you're doing here

1298
01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:50,320
is not something that you can do on your own.

1299
01:00:56,320 --> 01:00:57,760
Come, come with us.

1300
01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:02,760
And they lead you up the road and into the community.

1301
01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:08,000
People begin to come out of their houses

1302
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:10,320
as they see you come.

1303
01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:16,320
And it's,

1304
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:22,320
the brothers, John Zick, Rulin, Grun, Fabrier,

1305
01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:29,680
Belour and Verrez all help you unpack the carriage.

1306
01:01:33,140 --> 01:01:38,140
Taking good care of the casket that was packed

1307
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:44,440
and more or less hidden beneath some other things

1308
01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:49,440
in case of somebody coming in, looking in.

1309
01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:56,639
They pull the casket out and take it to a building,

1310
01:01:56,639 --> 01:02:00,700
kind of to the back of their community.

1311
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:08,159
Rulin comes up to you as this is all happening

1312
01:02:08,159 --> 01:02:09,679
and he says,

1313
01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:14,680
the message didn't really have much

1314
01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:22,560
in terms of what happened.

1315
01:02:27,440 --> 01:02:32,440
Were you two with her when she died?

1316
01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:36,200
We were.

1317
01:02:36,200 --> 01:02:41,200
She fought bravely.

1318
01:02:48,080 --> 01:02:48,920
Good.

1319
01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:58,240
She said she'd be back.

1320
01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:03,880
She's just hoping under better circumstances, I guess.

1321
01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:17,240
Come, we'll make a meal.

1322
01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:24,080
And there's been talk of a burial ceremony

1323
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:27,840
next to our parents.

1324
01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:32,059
We'll do that later.

1325
01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:35,679
After everybody's had a chance to say goodbye.

1326
01:03:36,679 --> 01:03:37,519
I hug him.

1327
01:03:38,679 --> 01:03:43,679
He kind of goes a little stiff at your hug.

1328
01:03:44,559 --> 01:03:46,519
I hug him a little tighter and then I say,

1329
01:03:46,519 --> 01:03:48,920
Mular wasn't much of a hugger at first either.

1330
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:53,480
No, she isn't.

1331
01:03:53,960 --> 01:03:55,400
Wasn't, was she.

1332
01:03:56,840 --> 01:03:58,280
He returns the hug.

1333
01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:05,400
And leads you to a communal house

1334
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:09,619
where everybody's kind of preparing a meal.

1335
01:04:10,960 --> 01:04:15,719
You sit down with all of Mular's family.

1336
01:04:17,199 --> 01:04:21,079
Some of the kids come up and start showing you

1337
01:04:21,079 --> 01:04:22,740
different things of theirs.

1338
01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:25,880
Like kids do.

1339
01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:26,960
Look at this rock I found.

1340
01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:27,800
Kids totally do.

1341
01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:28,619
Yeah.

1342
01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:32,000
That's what kids do, it's fine.

1343
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:32,880
Cool rock, kid.

1344
01:04:37,079 --> 01:04:40,320
They make a meal, everybody sits down.

1345
01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:45,320
It's a pretty somber occasion, obviously.

1346
01:04:46,719 --> 01:04:48,800
There's not much chatter that goes on

1347
01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:51,240
until the end of the night.

1348
01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:53,079
All the kids are being put to sleep.

1349
01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:59,480
And everybody's tidying up and you're sitting with John Zink.

1350
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:07,240
And he says, we hadn't seen much of Nulara

1351
01:05:08,639 --> 01:05:11,000
until she was able to come home,

1352
01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:14,780
which was amazing.

1353
01:05:16,679 --> 01:05:21,679
She mentioned how much she loved the two of you.

1354
01:05:24,240 --> 01:05:29,240
And how you were, how you were family to her.

1355
01:05:34,159 --> 01:05:39,159
Thank you for making sure she wasn't alone.

1356
01:05:43,079 --> 01:05:46,280
We're sorry, we couldn't do more.

1357
01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:51,280
She told me that it was going to be something

1358
01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:57,080
that was hard won and hard fought

1359
01:05:57,080 --> 01:05:58,600
and that there was a chance

1360
01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:00,400
that she wasn't going to come back.

1361
01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:07,720
So, in some way, I was prepared for this day.

1362
01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:12,240
In other ways, you can't, you can't, you just can't.

1363
01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:21,040
But don't, don't be sorry.

1364
01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:26,000
You were with her until the end,

1365
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:28,480
fighting beside her, being with her.

1366
01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:38,280
It's really, she wasn't meant to stay here.

1367
01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:43,280
She was meant to be out there adventuring, fighting,

1368
01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:48,880
doing right and the outcome, as hard as it is.

1369
01:06:56,880 --> 01:07:00,680
It's what she, it's what she wanted

1370
01:07:00,680 --> 01:07:05,680
to see the world, the country free.

1371
01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:11,400
I raised my glass, I assume we have glasses.

1372
01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:13,800
There's no way anyone's doing any of this sober.

1373
01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:16,240
No, I wouldn't have to think so.

1374
01:07:16,240 --> 01:07:19,240
I raise my glass and I say to Nulara,

1375
01:07:20,280 --> 01:07:21,360
she saved us all.

1376
01:07:23,559 --> 01:07:24,400
Here, here.

1377
01:07:25,440 --> 01:07:28,680
He raises his glass as well and takes a big swig.

1378
01:07:31,119 --> 01:07:33,400
So I could never ever ask before,

1379
01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:36,400
but any good embarrassing stories?

1380
01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:43,119
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

1381
01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:00,720
The songs Nowhere Land, Lost Time, Blue Feather,

1382
01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:03,960
The Machine Thinks, and At Rest are by Kavin McLeod

1383
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:06,280
