[291.6s] The you are
[293.7s] knelt over
[296.7s] Nulara's body
[300.9s] Flint is standing stunned off a distance away
[310.5s] We see a
[314.0s] Couple quick flashes couple
[318.4s] Jumps of image from
[321.1s] Thea's face to flint looking away to the dagger on Nulara's belt
[330.3s] Thea grabs the dagger quickly and stabs it into the charred body of Nulara
[340.4s] Suddenly everywhere around you Thea is black
[351.1s] Wait
[353.7s] Your voice echoes off into the unknown beyond what you can see
[361.0s] Donnie
[364.4s] You begin to hear footsteps
[368.3s] Like someone walking in just a thin
[372.7s] puddle
[374.2s] Just like they're walking in water
[376.2s] You
[378.2s] Look around and you see coming towards you a very shadowy silhouette come into focus a
[388.9s] Couple more flashes and the the
[393.2s] person who you can tell
[395.9s] Kind of jumps in distance towards you quickly
[399.1s] Directly
[401.8s] Directly before your face you see Nulara. She's drenched wet
[408.3s] Eyes are sunken her compLexion is sallow and she grabs you and says
[421.4s] And you wake
[423.4s] Ah
[428.2s] What's uh, what's the problem I
[432.8s] Had that dream again
[435.3s] Again fuck. What is this the tenth time?
[439.4s] Feels like it
[442.6s] Maybe maybe there's something we can do to help her. Maybe this is prophetic
[448.4s] Or I mean maybe
[450.5s] Maybe we can do something to stop having this dream come up for you
[457.2s] Well, okay, yeah sure
[459.5s] but what what if it is prophetic and I stopped the dreams and and Nulara's soul is trapped somewhere or and
[468.2s] And we have a chance to help her but we don't
[470.9s] Well shit, you had to put it that way didn't you? Yeah, I did. Yeah, I mean, let's uh
[476.5s] Let's figure this out if there's a chance that we can help her out with whatever I mean we over
[482.5s] Yeah, we do and stop hogging all the blankets
[487.5s] Sorry, sorry, yeah dwarfs we get cold
[492.4s] Run chilly
[496.8s] You get up and start your day I assume you head back on the road
[502.3s] Last we saw you you were traveling towards water deep
[506.1s] That's still the plan
[508.6s] Sure. Yes
[512.2s] You hop back on the road and to this point you have passed many small towns all of which have been
[521.0s] Evacuated or just left
[523.8s] Because of the battle with the cult of the dragon
[527.4s] And you come upon one a large sign
[531.2s] Notes the town name of Fairhaven
[535.6s] And as you come in you notice that people have begun to return to this town
[544.6s] You see caravans coming up the road as you are coming up to it and
[550.7s] It looks like people are are
[554.7s] moving back in
[556.9s] Moving back in
[564.4s] It's a good sign
[568.4s] What do you think
[571.7s] What do you think happened here just more cult shenanigans
[577.8s] Probably people are trying to put back the pieces of their broken lives after everything that's happened
[584.1s] I think it's a good sign everything's returning to normal I guess
[591.5s] Should we see if they need a hand or anything or what's the plan here? Yeah
[600.4s] Side all up to a friendly looking caravan
[605.0s] You see a
[607.4s] Caravan filled with what looks like a couple families
[611.1s] And they're offloading some things into a house near the edge of this town
[617.3s] Can we can we help you out at all is there anything you need oh
[624.1s] Yes, I'm sorry, sorry were you were you with the caravan before
[630.3s] You're coming from the other direction. No, we're just we're just passing through on our way back to Waterdeep. Oh
[636.1s] of course
[638.5s] A lot of people coming coming back out this way
[642.4s] But but yes, of course
[644.0s] We've got to get some heavier boxes that you could that would be great if you could help you're speaking to a
[651.0s] human woman
[653.9s] Spout five feet dirty blonde hair kind of looks like she's in a
[663.0s] Bit of a tattered a tattered dress but
[668.9s] Appears that she's been putting herself together for this moment
[674.8s] Sorry, um, hi, I'm I'm Thea
[678.4s] Yes. Yes. Pleasure to meet you. Um, my name's Morgana. Nice to meet you. I'm Merlin
[688.2s] Flint Flint over here there Morgana
[691.5s] pleasure pleasure
[694.0s] This is my family is
[696.7s] She points out to a couple kids, that's
[699.9s] Gohman and Fowler in
[702.1s] My husband he's off helping some other other
[705.4s] Other families get their stuff moved in. How long have you been away from your home?
[711.0s] it's
[713.7s] Seems like a while now we went to Waterdeep once the cult started hitting smaller towns
[721.8s] so
[723.3s] It's been a couple months. It feels like
[726.4s] That you're happy to be back
[728.6s] Definitely. It's it's certainly a nice change
[732.9s] How about you two
[735.6s] Wait, don't I know you from somewhere?
[739.7s] No, probably not I mean we've been around
[743.9s] Like a deception check
[751.7s] 14 for
[756.7s] Well, I'm definitely not the flint fire beard from the song and then that's just decimator of dragons
[762.1s] That's not a percent. Not I mean that guy's a dwarf I hear
[768.5s] I'm clearly
[771.3s] Halfling
[773.8s] Clearly
[776.5s] No, really, I think I think
[780.7s] Hmm
[782.2s] you just look very familiar and
[785.0s] Like I've seen you on some big big poster somewhere
[790.5s] Big sign big banner. I've just I've been told I have one of those beards, you know
[795.7s] That's it. That's the beard
[797.9s] Wait, she comes in a little closer
[801.7s] Are you
[804.3s] This decimators of dragons
[808.6s] What's uh, what's left of us? Yep
[815.2s] I
[818.5s] Can tell you're you're trying to keep a low profile
[822.5s] Unsuccessfully sir, if you don't mind me saying you're wearing exactly the same outfit as I'll not think better
[827.4s] I mean, it's the beard. It's kind of a hard thing to hide. I gotta be honest. That's fair. That's fair
[832.3s] I'll I'll I won't I won't make a big deal out of it
[836.5s] But thank you
[838.2s] For everything that you you've done
[840.9s] I
[843.2s] Say any time but I really hope we don't have to do that. Yeah, I'd prefer if we didn't have to again that's for sure
[849.3s] It's fair. I pick up a crate and I go kitchen
[854.1s] Yes, please yeah, it's books but I'm sure we'll find we'll find a where it goes
[858.8s] You can read in any room the box marked kitchen books. They could be cookbooks could be
[865.7s] You go about helping
[868.4s] Morgana unload her boxes and you get you get everything all packed up and inside
[878.2s] Well, I guess I guess we best be off
[882.1s] Are you where are you headed
[886.7s] Back to water deep
[889.5s] Well, I'm just just be beware will not weary but careful
[894.6s] The roads are pretty packed with people moving back out
[898.9s] as you probably know the city was pretty
[902.5s] overloaded and now they're trying to get everybody relocated back to
[908.2s] If they have a town left back to their towns if not then to a neighboring
[914.9s] neighboring city or town
[916.4s] Well, maybe we'll take the backwards
[918.8s] That's a good idea
[921.7s] Of course
[923.4s] Okay. Well, it's pleasure. Thank you very much for for everything. Good luck Morgana. Thank you
[931.1s] Get back on our little
[934.5s] Wagon with tiny and
[939.7s] You make your way through this town and you see a
[945.3s] Look that
[947.3s] you haven't seen on
[949.8s] just
[951.1s] the
[952.9s] Common folk for lack of a better term but in quite a while
[958.6s] People of any village across Faerun you haven't seen a look of hope and
[966.6s] Happiness
[970.9s] It's nice isn't this nice it's nice I kNulara would have liked this
[976.1s] Who do you think we can talk to about this
[980.7s] Dream and the possible
[984.6s] Implications of it. Well, if we need any like real good gypsies or witches in the woods
[989.8s] I mean, I mean we have a bit of a track record with witches in the woods if you do recall
[994.6s] They always have some good insights to that kind of stuff
[997.4s] But maybe it'd be safest to keep that information and discuss it with someone once we get to water deep
[1003.8s] Can't remember who's there. I'm suffering from PTSD
[1007.9s] Maybe like do you think that arcane brotherhood knows anyone who delves in that kind of stuff?
[1015.6s] maybe
[1016.8s] can't hurt to ask
[1020.0s] As you exit the town make a perception check
[1025.7s] Well
[1029.5s] 19 oh I did even better. No, I got the same 19
[1037.1s] You get to the edge of town and back into moving into some forested area and you think you hear
[1043.1s] Cries of help from behind you in the town
[1046.5s] Do you hear that?
[1048.2s] And it's always it's always something isn't it? I was just joking, but it's it's a fucking witch. I'm just leaving
[1055.1s] Well, I mean usually they don't cry out for help
[1058.8s] Oh shit unless it's someone crying out for help because of a witch. Oh god. Okay. Well, let's go
[1064.1s] So we turn around and come back into the
[1067.1s] You quickly make your way towards where you hear the screaming and it's coming from the center of town
[1073.4s] This is woken Donnie
[1075.9s] He wakes up and hey what what's going on out there?
[1079.1s] and as you get in round the corner to the town square you see the ground starting to heave up and
[1086.7s] Coming up from it are monstrous centipedes
[1091.5s] Tremors where's Kavin Bacon they begin pouring out of the ground in front of you
[1097.3s] And roll for initiative. Yeah, we do
[1100.9s] And that's a four
[1103.1s] five
[1105.7s] Plus two that is a 17 for old flint
[1110.3s] Just like old times
[1113.1s] Sorry, you got a four. No, I got five. Yeah, how dare you Russ? I have a plus two to my initiative
[1119.5s] Lit you're up first. So you have in front of you
[1123.1s] Rough estimate you've got between 10 and 15 centimeters coming up and out of the ground you see that they're
[1129.6s] Surrounding some people on a far side of this square that you're in and there are people running in every direction around you
[1138.6s] Yeah flint pulls the sword out from behind his back and says things are about to get moist
[1145.7s] Cueing up his moist tongue longsword to do extra damage, and he
[1154.1s] attacks the the
[1156.3s] centipede closest to him
[1159.6s] Already with a 21
[1163.5s] Now the 21 is now the new one okay perfect
[1168.8s] It's opposite day. I should have gone first. It's russ is sassy today
[1175.9s] Sassa pants all right. Oh, I need to d6 this as well because I've activated the sword
[1184.2s] Okay, we got
[1186.0s] 15
[1187.6s] Slashing damage and then four cold damage so 19 damage in total
[1193.3s] Holy fuck you leap down off of the wagon into this this fray of
[1200.6s] Rithing and
[1203.6s] Wriggling
[1205.1s] centipedes
[1206.5s] But you launch yourself down into them, and you cleave through one entirely and into another one
[1215.7s] Perfect time for the second of three attacks via claps and is like
[1222.1s] Come on. Oh, that's not very good. That's a 12
[1225.5s] A
[1227.1s] 12 will not do it one sack one sack
[1231.3s] Blances off its natural armor. Let's have to go back over flints skills in shit here
[1237.9s] I know it's a one or two on a damage roll not an attack roll all right and
[1242.2s] one more attack
[1245.6s] And that is a 23 that will
[1252.4s] Okay, that is
[1255.9s] Plus eight cold damage so 17 in total
[1259.4s] The second one that you hit kind of turns to you and looks with its beady eyes as you strike into its face and
[1267.0s] It explodes back and out towards some running people. They're covered in centipede goop
[1274.1s] Sorry about that
[1280.1s] That's it for fun screams all right some centipedes across the square, and they are
[1285.8s] Corraling and cornering some towns folks, and they go to attack them
[1291.8s] Holy shit, there's bystanders now the stakes have been raised
[1296.8s] Stakes have been raised. I mean you guys can cleave through fucking anything, so I got to give you something to work for here
[1304.1s] You see one of them jump up and bite at one of these one of these towns people
[1310.6s] And they sustain some damage and make us
[1318.3s] And
[1319.3s] the one that bites
[1321.4s] Let's out a yell and falls to the ground as the centipede crawls over top of them
[1327.1s] Thea your turn
[1329.4s] How far am I from the centipedes that are crawling the people?
[1334.8s] Probably
[1337.0s] 50 feet I'm gonna cast eldritch blast at the one
[1343.9s] that one that's like furthest away from
[1347.7s] the people still in the group, but
[1350.9s] So that is
[1353.2s] Instantaneous an attack roll per each okay
[1357.3s] and I
[1360.9s] Get four beams. I'm at 17th level for beat 16th 16th level
[1367.4s] Oh 16 okay fine three beams
[1371.0s] I'm gonna roll all three
[1373.3s] Said beans and not beams. I'm gonna throw some beans
[1378.5s] Well here's a nat 20
[1381.5s] Here's a 19
[1384.9s] Here's an 11, but my attack bonus is a plus 7 so that's an 18
[1391.2s] All right, roll me some damage. Okay, it's going to be
[1395.0s] Oh
[1396.2s] Roll your double one for my double. So the double is 2d 10
[1403.2s] Force damage
[1405.8s] That's a six and that's a seven
[1410.4s] Which
[1411.9s] 13 for the where are you aiming each of these three all at one or at three different ones?
[1418.1s] I think it's gonna be three different ones. Okay, so the first one goes to
[1421.8s] The one that maybe bit the person sure well no isn't that crawling on top of the person right now
[1426.8s] I don't want to do that
[1428.8s] What if it hits the person maybe you're like a fucking sniper with these with these beams level level 16
[1435.3s] Yeah, okay, I'm gonna explode it on top of that guy, and he's gonna be fucking grateful
[1442.3s] And he is and you do it rains down this first bolt hits into that
[1447.8s] It's almost like goes up its butt
[1449.8s] It's almost like goes up its butt and like spreads like
[1456.5s] Nice there's Santa Pete's I gotta do something right might as well be but stuff behind as well

[1499.6s] I mean like that episode of Buffy. Yeah, we're gonna have to maybe a bit of a high water mark
[1505.1s] We'd have to hold on. Yeah, we have to try a little harder. Why would this just be interludes are for everyone
[1510.0s] Oh interludes are for this is where we try and get them to become patrons

[1639.5s] Shenanigans, I have one
[1641.9s] Sentence written on a piece of paper. You guys don't get to see what it actually said
[1647.3s] But it is the basis off everything. I'm working towards
[1652.1s] Intriguing
[1655.0s] Interesting let's start guessing let's start guessing is it an animal
[1661.3s] No sentence for us high heels pantyhose and other question mark
[1667.5s] Write this down sounds more like a shopping list, but alright
[1671.9s] Anyways, you're gonna figure out what that sentence is if you come join us Patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast if the game time

[1693.8s] Called facing fate
[1696.0s] Where we do indeed face fate we do and it's quite frightening and it is not D&D. It is
[1702.3s] Something other stuff. It is. Yeah, our first season is called Luna Corp and it's got you know, it's got some sci-fi
[1709.4s] It's got some thrills. It's got some scares. It's got some clip-clopping
[1715.0s] and hip-hopping
[1716.5s] I don't think it has either of those things. It has both of those things actually

[1968.9s] Folks
[1971.1s] That's right two of them are going to attack at flint that is double 19s
[1976.6s] Plus fours that's crap. That's double 23. Oh, yeah, that'll hit. Oh, yeah, and
[1982.4s] That's a natural 20 and a 15 for Thea a 19 for Thea
[1988.6s] Yeah, yeah. All right. Let's roll some damage
[1992.7s] Flint you're gonna take
[1995.7s] Six nine piercing damage and you must succeed on a Constitution saving throw. Is this
[2002.3s] Non-magic damage Russ. This is non-magic. This is centipedal damage and you said nine, correct? Nine
[2008.9s] All right. I will take six
[2011.1s] Because of my heavy armor mastery. Yeah, and then you said a Constitution saving throw you betcha
[2020.5s] that is a
[2022.4s] 17
[2023.9s] You are fine. Yeah
[2026.4s] Gotta love them plus four bonuses
[2029.9s] Thea you will take ten piercing damage and also must succeed on a Constitution saving throw
[2041.2s] Nine you failed but it's poison so you're fine. Oh, yeah
[2047.4s] Hey
[2051.0s] Back to flint
[2052.7s] Some of these centipedes have started that are on the outer edges have started to go into the town
[2057.6s] Is there still some that are around like townsfolk?
[2061.7s] Yes on the other side of the
[2065.9s] Square how far away from me are they?
[2070.0s] Approximately 40 feet. All right, I will
[2074.4s] Walk like I don't know
[2077.4s] 10 or
[2078.7s] 15 feet or so. How far do we have with the jumpy diamonds Ross was it 30 feet?
[2083.3s] 30 feet with the jumpy diamonds. Now if you walk I
[2087.0s] Will invoke two opportunity attacks against you
[2092.3s] To that just bitch you okay, you know what let's attack these two first and then maybe I'll go for a little walk
[2098.2s] In a jumpy diamond
[2100.8s] All right, first one coming at you that is a 27
[2105.9s] Just you know, you know
[2110.3s] All right, uh
[2112.3s] Seven plus nine is 16 damage
[2116.6s] That one that was getting all sassy and was like opportunity attack. Yeah, you just split hit skull perfect
[2123.3s] Have a scholar. It's exoskeleton
[2126.4s] Exoskeleton, let's go for the other one that would have been opportunistic against me. So I'm assuming there's two there were two
[2134.2s] Oh, that's a nat 20. I
[2137.8s] Mean you can roll it. I mean I gotta roll it just for the sake of I rolled in at 20 and you got to
[2143.4s] Roll it
[2144.4s] So that is 8 plus 715
[2149.5s] Followed by another 5. So that's 20 plus another 16. So that is 36 damage
[2158.6s] You know what you strike into this one and you hit it so hard
[2163.9s] It blinks out of existence
[2166.2s] No, not even that you hit it so hard and with such accuracy that its body splits in twain and
[2173.3s] Shoots off and does more damage to two that are farther away. Just like their legs like pierce into
[2180.8s] These other two centipedes and you've taken out four centipedes with this
[2185.8s] Just like I planned it
[2188.6s] And now I'm gonna toss the little jumpy diamond up in the air looking over towards where these town people are
[2196.5s] Where there's other centipedes attacking them and I'm going to arrive right over there
[2202.0s] And I'm gonna do a little more hackin and or a slashing
[2206.8s] All right
[2208.5s] Been wanting to use the jumpy diamond forever. I know now is the goddamn time
[2213.6s] That is a 26
[2218.7s] So that is 11 plus 6 so 17 damage there
[2224.0s] you get one right you kind of appear and
[2228.6s] Move to get this one right as it's about to jump at some towns people
[2234.0s] and
[2235.2s] Pin it to the ground with your sword
[2238.8s] excellent
[2242.1s] That is all for Flint's turn
[2244.2s] Well, that's it just take out half the centipede well I could action surge if you want me to try forth, but no no
[2250.2s] No, that's fine
[2252.4s] I
[2254.0s] Don't know you got a mr. Twelve turns
[2259.2s] It would have been the centipedes turns but now it's Amy's turn they got got so it's
[2264.8s] Thea's turn there are two centipedes around you and you see some
[2268.4s] Maybe three or four more going into the city or into the town Amy. I made it your turn quicker
[2273.5s] Are you happy? He's so happy
[2277.7s] Okay, so three or four more going back toward the town, yeah, but two are on you but two are on me, okay
[2285.2s] Well, I guess I am going to have to
[2290.4s] Do something about that I'm gonna do eldritch blast again
[2295.0s] Against the two in front of me and one that's heading toward the city. All right
[2301.0s] Well, then that one's only a 13
[2304.0s] 18 and 17
[2307.0s] All of those will hit
[2309.8s] All right, so for the ones that are on me one gets two damage. Yes
[2317.0s] Force damage another one gets four damage. All right
[2321.3s] And the next one is a one watch out. I'm a level 16 bitches. Calm yourselves down
[2329.6s] So your elders blast goes out and like
[2332.6s] Like vaporizes into the face of these centipedes who now their eyes shrivel up
[2337.3s] But they're just kind of riling around on the ground in front of you
[2341.1s] One goes off and fires into the back end of one and just kind of skitters it further into the town quickly
[2349.4s] Whoops
[2351.2s] Sorry, I'm you know that dream really got me
[2354.6s] Not at my best right now the centipedes that are they're just kind of spinning
[2359.2s] They're going to try to attack you but at disadvantage
[2363.7s] That's gonna be a 16 for the first time me. Yeah, they should always attack me with disadvantage
[2368.8s] I have my cloak of displacement on it got shredded. It got shredded by Tiamat. I don't remember that
[2379.6s] Fucking it's got duct tape on it
[2382.3s] It's got to be re-enchanted as shit. You haven't stopped down to do that
[2388.0s] So you get hit by one because the other one rolled an eight
[2392.5s] That's gonna be six piercing damage and poison but whatever
[2404.3s] Back to Flint so there are no more around you
[2407.4s] You too have seen some go in the direction of the city. You look back at Thea. She has
[2414.2s] Two that are just kind of spinning and trying to bite her but appear to have something
[2421.7s] You know optically wrong with them
[2424.4s] And there is the one townsperson who is knocked down to the ground and it appears to be unconscious
[2432.4s] All right, I guess I'll make my way over to Thea's crazy spinning centipedes of death
[2440.8s] Okay
[2442.7s] How far away are they from me?
[2445.5s] They you were 40 feet to get
[2449.0s] Across to the townspeople. So
[2451.7s] So somewhere in that neighborhood somewhere in that neighborhood. Okay, I'll make my way towards her
[2456.8s] But I can't get that far on one set of movement
[2460.6s] Oh, I guess I could dash
[2463.7s] That uses up one of my actions correctly. Yes. Okay, I will dash over there and I will attack
[2470.6s] The first of the two spinning centipedes possibly with disadvantage because they're spinning and therefore are probably harder to hit I
[2479.9s] Mean they can't see which would put them at a disadvantage
[2482.8s] So you would probably get advantage because they don't know it's coming because they can't dodge or anything
[2488.1s] I'm well first one wasn't had twice
[2492.9s] All right out of curiosity, I'm gonna roll the second one. All right, it was the 13
[2497.4s] See if that dice is broken too many gnats
[2501.4s] like he does I
[2504.2s] Mean I feel like I could save these for our other game and they would be more useful there than they are right here
[2510.0s] But you don't know what kind of use these these sense of feeds are well, that's true
[2514.3s] Okay, so 13 plus 4 is 17 plus 10 is 27 damage
[2520.9s] It's spinning very quickly
[2522.4s] But you kind of give one of these like you're watching it like your head's going around in circles and then you just
[2528.7s] You get it just like tracking it. Yeah. All right, and I guess second one that is a
[2536.7s] 15 on the attack roll Russ
[2539.5s] That will also hit. Oh, I was pleasantly surprised about that
[2545.0s] Ten and five fifteen
[2548.0s] This last centipede that you can see is also now dispatched centipede guts
[2556.8s] strewn across
[2559.0s] below your feet
[2560.8s] You look around and survey the situation. There's a giant
[2564.3s] Not a giant but a large hole where these centipedes came up
[2569.5s] You hear some distant calls distant screaming
[2573.9s] Sounds like maybe they've moved into other parts of the city as you had watched them go and there is a townsperson
[2582.4s] Unconscious
[2584.8s] You're not in direct combat anymore so you can do whatever you can I pick up this townsperson and like firemen carry them back
[2592.0s] into town
[2594.2s] Yeah, yeah, I mean technically you're in town but I can take them somewhere to and to perhaps a another group
[2600.6s] Sorry, I thought you said the centipede was like heading into town. Oh, sorry. No, I had you place like in town square
[2607.1s] Oh, okay. Perfect. Yeah, so you're in town. So like further in town. They're heading. Yeah. Yeah, sorry. They're going out into like
[2615.0s] Hit the mic they're going out into like the surrounding
[2618.8s] Suburbs, okay, you know as far as small town. Well that case
[2623.0s] I guess we can maybe just leave this person here if it doesn't look like there's any immediate danger
[2628.1s] Yeah, I think main
[2630.8s] Objective is stop other ones from doing more damage. Yeah. Oh, can we can I like put this person on the cart?
[2637.9s] Sure, you can I just get them off the ground that might be at least some form of
[2643.0s] protection if there's more centipedes to show up
[2645.5s] Donnie and kind of leans back in the back of the wagon. It's like yeah, you guys looked like you had it down
[2649.8s] I'll watch this this MOOC
[2651.8s] Yeah, thanks. Thanks for all your help Donnie
[2654.5s] You walk away and you hear him. He's like hey, hey buddy
[2658.2s] You got you got bit by a centipede now. You're gonna wake up to a dragon face when you wake up
[2663.1s] That's gonna be real exciting. Oh
[2666.0s] Boy, this was a good idea
[2668.2s] Because these people are not at all, you know
[2672.2s] Traumatized by the recent events. No, they haven't had any trouble with dragons
[2678.8s] It's gonna be fine. It's gonna be fine. All right, I guess take off after these other centipedes
[2685.1s] All right, you know the approximate direction, but as you follow
[2690.2s] you
[2691.4s] need to roll a
[2693.7s] survival check or
[2696.4s] Or nature nature or survival. I
[2699.6s] Will choose nature because I have a much better bonus in that one. Oh, I critically failed so it does not matter
[2709.2s] Are you going to attempt to do anything we're not in combat so you guys are together
[2715.1s] Fuck me
[2718.0s] It's going to be
[2722.4s] Well survivals plus four so how about an eight solid
[2727.8s] You begin walking and you kind of lose the path after a little while
[2736.4s] Okay, I'm not gonna lie I don't know where we are yeah, I've I've totally lost track of everything
[2742.1s] Should we retrace our steps
[2744.5s] Yeah, I guess
[2746.5s] Now you begin retracing your steps and you make it about halfway back to the town square when you hear a another scream
[2753.3s] off into your right
[2756.3s] Shall we run to the scream?
[2760.3s] Like you're already behind me see he's taken off
[2765.4s] Run we shall
[2767.4s] You make it there and you see a woman running out of a house
[2770.4s] And she passes you like running full-tilt doesn't stop to say anything. I think we're going the right way. I think so
[2777.9s] Let's get into that house over there
[2780.5s] You make it into the house and it's dark and shadowy make a perception check
[2787.4s] 14 to 13 flint you see
[2794.1s] Kind of the tail end of what you
[2796.8s] Think is centipede go down some stairs and just barrel on down those stairs
[2802.7s] Following quickly behind
[2804.9s] What are you doing? I've seen him murder like a hundred centipedes in like the last five minutes
[2811.0s] Okay, so I yell after him. I'm gonna make sure everyone's safe, and I go and I go upstairs to
[2819.2s] Go to like investigate the rooms
[2822.1s] Okay, so
[2824.1s] The rooms
[2825.6s] Okay
[2826.8s] You make it down to the basement and you roll a perception check
[2833.3s] Gladly good, sir
[2835.6s] That is a 15
[2838.1s] you get down to the bottom of the stairs and
[2841.6s] There are some some boxes kind of stacked up and you hear off and to the left
[2851.4s] The sound of a scent centipedes
[2854.1s] Feet am I is there stuff in the way am I able to see?
[2859.0s] It's kind of tucked away behind some of the boxes. All right, so I guess I'll
[2864.5s] Rip these boxes out of the way and get my sword ready in one fell swoop you do so
[2871.5s] Make a dexterity saving throw
[2874.9s] That is a 14 to centipedes jump out at you
[2880.4s] You nimbly throw your dice across the room perfect mission accomplished
[2886.5s] Nimbly dodge out of the way as you see their fangs fly towards your face. You're up first
[2892.8s] Okay
[2894.6s] It's a 26. Oh my god. Yeah
[2900.5s] That is
[2902.6s] 22 damage that time
[2905.4s] It's almost like you kind of backhand your sword as you catch it and splits it runs all the way down those one of them
[2916.9s] Second one 22
[2924.7s] 18 damages on that one
[2929.8s] Also dead also dead it didn't even turn around
[2933.8s] And you had you had killed it cut its head clean off as
[2938.8s] You stabbed this last one. You kind of take a quick look around the room and you see that there is a
[2945.1s] a hole in the dirt
[2948.6s] Off to where they were behind the boxes
[2952.3s] Does this look like a hole they were like trying to escape into
[2956.5s] Perhaps one could presume. All right, I guess I'll
[2961.4s] Inspect a gate this hole
[2964.5s] Roll an inspection
[2968.1s] He's the best investigator, that's right
[2971.9s] That is an 18
[2975.2s] It definitely looks like they were moving towards that direction you look down it it's
[2981.5s] You can't really see where it terminates, but you
[2985.8s] Get the sense and almost you feel kind of a draft coming back through it
[2992.0s] Leading you to believe that this hole leads elsewhere in the town
[2996.8s] Although not big enough for me to like climb in to I'm assuming
[3001.6s] No, not really not human size. Hey. No. All right. Is there any like
[3006.7s] Bookshelves or heavy things like maybe a filing cabinet because they had those things back then right? Definitely
[3014.2s] Maybe it's full of old tax returns and weighs a lot and I can like dump it in front of the hole
[3018.4s] So it can't be moved. I mean there are some pretty heavy boxes. Perfect. Let's do heavy boxes. Okay
[3024.9s] You do so back to Thea. What are you doing?
[3027.2s] I'm running up the stairs to go see if there's anyone upstairs who needs assistance. I want to get people out of here
[3034.2s] I'm on safety patrol because you know
[3037.7s] My fighting is a little iffy right now rubble on the double
[3043.6s] Video very nicely done. Yeah, it was good, right?
[3047.4s] You quickly run up and clear all the rooms. There's nobody up there
[3053.4s] You hear Flint's footsteps coming back up the stairs after a very short amount of time
[3058.6s] I slide down the banister and meet him at the bottom
[3062.2s] How'd it go? I?
[3063.9s] Mean seem pretty good
[3065.2s] I dispatched the two that I found and but there's like a tunnel of sorts down in that basement
[3071.2s] It obviously leads somewhere
[3073.8s] Man, they're gonna want to get that checked out like probably get an exterminator up in here
[3080.6s] Yeah, maybe I have a problem. Yeah centipedes are us or something. I know I think that's where you go to buy giant centipede
[3087.4s] Oh, right. Okay. Yeah, then probably not that store. No
[3094.4s] I don't I don't feel like chasing that lady down to tell her that her house is clear
[3100.4s] Just leave like a little note on the door
[3102.8s] Yeah, I mean I take take out a scroll
[3107.0s] And I and I write in bit like the penmanship is amazing, but I write
[3112.8s] Killed to this was after talking to Flint killed two centipedes
[3118.8s] corpses left in basement
[3121.2s] sorry for the mess
[3123.2s] might want to get that hole taken care of and I
[3127.7s] put it on her door as
[3130.4s] You pin it to the door close the door behind you ever so gently
[3136.6s] And head back out into the streets you begin to feel a rumble like a
[3143.4s] Tremored earthquake rumble course through the town
[3150.4s] Well, I can't that can't be good
[3153.2s] Glass begins to shatter in windows and people that were still around it begin to run out and into the forest as
[3162.2s] you see a
[3165.4s] Giant
[3166.6s] Centipede I said the last ones were monstrous, but these this one is huge
[3170.5s] It erupts up and out dirt and debris flies everywhere. It easily stands about 30 feet above you
[3179.7s] So we're talking like a dune level sandworm
[3182.4s] With its hundreds of legs it screams and looks down towards you

[3235.9s] It's me. I had tacos. Well, I mean
[3242.3s] I
[3243.8s] Actually think I've been incorrectly rolling my damage as in not giving myself enough because it says on my sheet
[3249.9s] 1d 10 plus 10 for the damage on this moist on long sword and I've been rolling 2d 10s
[3255.3s] So whenever I mean pretty close, but yeah, you should be doing 1d 10 plus 10. Yeah
