00:00:57,439 --> 00:01:05,200
very different as you kind of address Mannix they reach their hand up and touch the mirror

7
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:18,959
Mannix i'm i'm sorry i i know what it means to lose a loved one and i can't imagine how you

00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:34,719

17
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:30,560
since we don't have an end episode goal like we do in facing fate it's like it's just nothing

18
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:35,439
it's just a number it's it is it's just a number that one day we'll look back at and

19
00:02:35,439 --> 00:02:42,800
be like remember when we'd only done 50 episodes of this season we were so young and

40
00:04:52,560 --> 00:05:06,400
you're looking down at manic's as they turn to face you and say

41
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:15,600
what do you mean you're sorry for the loss of my daughter um i don't i don't know why

42
00:05:16,319 --> 00:05:21,520
it's it's okay i'm sorry it's okay we have to keep going the longer we spend here the more

43
00:05:21,519 --> 00:05:27,759
shangalar will play with our minds manic's turns and begins walking down the hall in the

44
00:05:27,759 --> 00:05:33,519
direction you were heading i also follow i mean i'm still kind of looking in the mirrors as we

45
00:05:34,399 --> 00:05:38,159
as we pass because how could you not i'm definitely having a glance as well

46
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:47,120
yeah you see those same images play over and over of thea in this more monk attire

47
00:05:48,079 --> 00:05:57,920
thea in back in the university older than she was when she was there but like she never had left

48
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:07,120
flint working hand in hand with his his family his father his sister down in the mines at

49
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:15,519
mithral hall and yen bull leading this charge of the calum port army across the land against

50
00:06:15,519 --> 00:06:23,199
an unknown entity across the way you follow manic's and you leave the hall of mirrors and it

51
00:06:24,159 --> 00:06:28,799
it's this as you were walking through it's this carved out hollowed out as if you're

52
00:06:28,799 --> 00:06:36,639
walking through a tree and as you leave the mirrors the tree begins to fade and morph

53
00:06:36,719 --> 00:06:41,039
into more of a rock facade

54
00:06:43,519 --> 00:06:47,519
and you see moisture begin to build up and the further you go

55
00:06:47,519 --> 00:06:55,199
moss and algae begin to sprawl across the ground and up the walls manic's is walking

56
00:06:55,199 --> 00:06:59,839
straight ahead and you see up ahead that light but it's getting nearer now

57
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:06,240
wow and it's glowing brighter into the opening at the end of this hallway

58
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:14,320
and it looks like it opens into a room should we slow down we should

59
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:22,880
so i i agree we must approach the light but let's not yes yes of course

60
00:07:22,879 --> 00:07:27,839
guys it's the weirdest fucking pyramid i've ever been in

61
00:07:29,279 --> 00:07:36,879
yes it's been i thought it would all be stone but instead tree mirrors and tree and the most

62
00:07:36,879 --> 00:07:42,480
beautiful bathroom i've ever seen i know it was that's really gonna stick with me it's

63
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:49,040
haunting it's a hauntingly beautiful i shall never see another one it's like ever again

64
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:53,920
are you feeling that kind of like feeling of loss and grief like there i suspect i will never

65
00:07:53,920 --> 00:08:00,000
see it again yeah i guess we'll just have to see what is at the end of this rock hallway

66
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:06,080
oh my god maybe it's another bathroom oh okay no but it's probably not so it's probably

67
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:12,480
not it's probably a monster we should be ready we should be ready does it feel like fluorescent

68
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:18,320
lighting like are we gonna look terrible in there i mean it looks like a dim uh like

69
00:08:18,319 --> 00:08:26,000
almost like a dancing light that shimmers with like this rainbow irradiance oh everyone's gonna

70
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,680
look in there never i thought maybe it'd be worry gone i thought maybe it might be like

71
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:39,519
the waiting room from beetle juice um yes uh i mean we didn't know what we were walking into

72
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:52,480
but shangular is prepared for many individuals and clearly wallace has taken some design

73
00:08:53,759 --> 00:09:00,879
liberties the man's a fucking genius though i mean this is the trick of of shangular it has not

74
00:09:00,879 --> 00:09:09,600
been frightening yet it has not been it it makes me more scared than if we had seen

75
00:09:10,159 --> 00:09:17,039
many fearsome creatures that's true i can kill a monster can't kill a creepy room filled with

76
00:09:17,039 --> 00:09:27,519
mirrors you okay am i okay yes why i don't know you just touched one so immediately i'm

77
00:09:27,519 --> 00:09:38,240
suspicious feeling energized as ever and ready to find our way to this lich okay

78
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:46,399
can i like ready in action if we open the door and something comes at us can i like

79
00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:51,840
oh there's no door is gonna end oh it's an open okay well if something attacks us through

80
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:58,800
the archway can i like ready if like a fireball in my hand sure yeah okay cool i want to do that

81
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,720
okay yeah we can say that you have that kind of prepped and ready to go is yeah

82
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:07,280
i can just hold fire no big deal sure yeah why not why not we live in a magical world

83
00:10:08,879 --> 00:10:13,519
fucking amistacia okay yeah you are decimators of dragons baby

84
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:23,360
baby anybody else want to say that they ready any particular item well i think i have my mace

85
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:28,399
of terror out but i think we just kind of have as we have been i don't i don't remember if i

86
00:10:28,399 --> 00:10:34,000
said it before but as we're walking through the scary lich's flying pyramid sure probably

87
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,120
yeah i'd assume you were like the sweetest and you have like

88
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:45,759
like your freaking terror stick i assume i have my moist tongue longsword out but not

89
00:10:45,759 --> 00:10:53,600
moistened yet yeah you don't want to pre-moisten it it's just a bit much yeah makes the floor

90
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:59,519
all slippery we're all slipping and sliding on it also slippery floor signs everywhere

91
00:11:00,399 --> 00:11:02,879
me right it goes against his aesthetic so

92
00:11:05,199 --> 00:11:12,079
um okay you've all readied your or you know you're ready to go as if something were to jump

93
00:11:12,079 --> 00:11:19,120
out at you um and you walk slowly towards this room and it's kind of takes a bend and and

94
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:27,360
goes into this like open uh more cavernous looking chamber and dim light dances in the air

95
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:32,960
and it shimmering through the colors of the rainbow and gently lighting the walls of this

96
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:40,320
cavern you see a few piles of bones and scraps of gear litter the floor throughout here but do

97
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:49,919
i see your true colors shining through do i see your true colors and that's why i love you

98
00:11:50,639 --> 00:11:54,479
please don't say us

99
00:11:54,479 --> 00:12:00,799
to let them show uh russ do i see anything in the pile of gear and

100
00:12:00,799 --> 00:12:06,879
bones and anything that looks of interest and also to clarify are these piles of human bones

101
00:12:06,879 --> 00:12:13,599
or like rib bones from the dining hall oh good good clarifying yeah um they do this is just

102
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:22,720
the bone room uh they they do look like um perhaps human or humanoid bones um everybody

103
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:29,279
i am assuming we've moved past the front entryway uh yeah carefully peeking around

104
00:12:29,279 --> 00:12:34,720
the corners being all sorts of careful i'm not losing all my hit points in the first

128
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:04,480
the colors are shining through the rainbow colors the colors are Glimering are the color

129
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:08,640
shining through the rainbow colors i don't know i've lost the description here this fucking

130
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:14,080
lights everywhere kind of like rainbow connection into the room yes yeah yeah yeah that's exactly

131
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:19,600
what you feel um you go and examine does it shine bright like a diamond like a diamond

132
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,840
we're in all the songs today you know what i feel like we've been missing out on certain

133
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:28,240
parts of this from our podcast lately you know we've been getting really and sometimes

134
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:33,440
you just need to add inject a little bit of silly back into it um you go into this

135
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:39,919
room and round this corner and the lights seem like they're coming from no particular

136
00:15:39,919 --> 00:15:45,279
location they're coming from everywhere like a disco ball somewhere yeah but you can't trace

137
00:15:45,279 --> 00:15:50,399
it back to anything you go look closer at the gear and at the remains that are in this

138
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:59,519
room and they do appear um human or humanoid as previously described and the gear is old

139
00:15:59,519 --> 00:16:08,720
and rusted you look through and there's um there's broken up shields there's blades

140
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:17,199
that seem to have been bent snapped bow um one of the figures is wearing um

141
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:24,400
um like full plate armor and has like this amulet around their um around their neck

142
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:32,160
nobody touch the amulet yes i think it seems like a bad idea to take from the dead in this

143
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:39,840
place oh well that and i like you know those things nine out of ten usually cursed so oh

144
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:45,120
but yeah yours is much more moral what what makes you say it would be cursed thea the

145
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:51,039
dude's dead didn't he well obviously wasn't lucky looks like a stab wound that killed them

146
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:57,600
how can you tell that he is but bones there is a blade sticking okay bones

147
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:06,240
fine well i mean you're you guys are good at magic is there a way to tell if it's

148
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:12,000
cursed or anything like that before we touch it i can tell if it's magical but i can't tell

149
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:20,720
if it's cursed so i'm just gonna leave it but manic's if you want to pick it up um

150
00:17:21,519 --> 00:17:27,839
i'll kill you if you go crazy if you want me to perfect love it uh let's see just offering

151
00:17:27,839 --> 00:17:35,279
that that you know it's it's a friendship thing right i mean flint you know well if

152
00:17:35,279 --> 00:17:46,720
you can detect if it is magical i can dispel the source of magic can you yes oh well hold on

153
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:52,319
and then it will just be pretty and then it will just be pretty yeah it's kind of like this

154
00:17:52,319 --> 00:17:57,680
this design that's like it loops around the corners on the outside and like feeds into itself

155
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:04,320
does seem pretty yeah um i don't know yen bull doesn't seem comfortable with

156
00:18:05,279 --> 00:18:11,039
sorry robbing the dead is that it's just this is a warrior i assume who came here to fight the

157
00:18:11,039 --> 00:18:15,440
lich that we are trying to fight and if there was weapons i would feel like we could take

158
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:23,360
those but just to take a piece of jewelry for no reason yes could be a family heirloom

159
00:18:23,360 --> 00:18:29,840
um could have been and you would find the family and track them down oh god i wish man

160
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:35,040
our list is so long and the steps we got to do that'd be so far down i'd be afraid that

161
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:39,760
it would get lost but if you want to track the family down like well i don't know if you

162
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,680
need a little side adventure after all this is over see how optimistic i am that this is

163
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:50,320
gonna go our way i feel like one i love your optimism two i'm a little worried about

164
00:18:50,319 --> 00:18:55,279
my whole city being destroyed i might be busy well what if this is something that could help

165
00:18:55,279 --> 00:19:07,359
us i just i just bend down and i go hey amulet magic and i cast detect magic it glows it glows

166
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:15,200
with a because you get the source of magic right i do believe it's a an abjuration school

167
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:23,920
of abjuration you can get a sense that it is perhaps a warding spell of some sort that has

168
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:35,600
been cast on the amulet at the same time as you ask hey you magic you get a strong glow

169
00:19:36,319 --> 00:19:42,000
coming from further into this room this room kind of wraps around a corner and the

170
00:19:42,559 --> 00:19:48,480
the lights that are all the colors of you know rotating through the colors of the rainbow

171
00:19:49,759 --> 00:19:57,119
as you ask as you cast detect magic the source of whatever this light is becomes apparent to you

172
00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:03,279
it's further and around this bend and it's like emanating brightly from the center or

173
00:20:03,279 --> 00:20:12,319
leading further into this room so only i can see this yeah um i say kind of absently

174
00:20:13,519 --> 00:20:20,240
yeah that that thing's like magic and i say but the light over here

175
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:29,920
and i start to wander toward the the bright light uh good good good magic uh like take it

176
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:35,039
magic or uh uh warding warding spell i mean that's

177
00:20:37,519 --> 00:20:42,800
that's good that's good magic usually unless it's warding against you um this light is

178
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:48,560
coming from over here manix reaches down and grabs it and no ill effect and picks it up

179
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:53,519
puts it in their satchel um i think i'm kind of following thea because the group follows

180
00:20:53,759 --> 00:21:00,799
further into this room it opens up into a wider chamber that immediately you see

181
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:07,119
thea you see the source of whatever is casting this this light throughout the room but around

182
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:17,359
it are several other creatures you see six zombies kind of shambling around the center where

183
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,279
you see the center of this light everybody else just sees the colors throughout the room

184
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:28,480
um but you see six zombies you see two uh zombified warriors they have like full plate

185
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:37,519
armor head uh gear they carry swords with them and there are two like flashing floating lights

186
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:45,599
also like just mindlessly shambling for lack of a better term around the center of this

187
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:52,400
wider chamber that you walk into and as you enter and see them it doesn't look like they

188
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:59,360
acknowledge you is there six normal zombies and then in plus two warrior zombies plus two

189
00:21:59,360 --> 00:22:09,360
unknown kind of floating right luminescent things so a total of 10 10 bogies things

190
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:19,600
okay um i whisper to my friends um there's something in the middle of the room creating

191
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:25,920
like what does it look like to me just a big bright light there's just a big bright light

192
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:31,680
in the middle of the room and i think it's you know how moths are drawn to a flame

193
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:38,560
i have i think that might be what's happening here considering we're standing here and

194
00:22:38,559 --> 00:22:43,919
nothing's attacked us yet the school because you're gonna get the school on that one

195
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:51,679
at least i'm not gonna get schooled that's right um but we don't see the creatures or

196
00:22:51,679 --> 00:22:54,960
we see the creatures but not the light yeah you all see the creatures but not like the

197
00:22:55,919 --> 00:23:02,000
but not the light source magic stuff yeah um and the school of magic is enchantment

198
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,200
for you detect magic

199
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,880
oh maybe i'll tell yen but well no i was just like usually i'm surrounded by people who don't

200
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:17,440
do magic so it's like it doesn't really matter yeah i mean manic says too like i could be like

201
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:25,359
yo flint it's enchantment and he'll be like cool i don't care um it looks like it's an

202
00:23:25,360 --> 00:23:33,840
enchantment maybe somebody else has been here before us and we are

203
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:44,560
you know reaping the benefits of their trap that is still set perhaps i can't imagine shangla

204
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:53,440
would have zombies and undead here and then not have them ready to attack us yeah they

205
00:23:53,440 --> 00:24:01,440
definitely look preoccupied is there enough room to like skate around these circling moth-like

206
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:08,080
zombies um yeah yeah you could walk by them yes i would like to do that um i would recommend

207
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:15,920
nobody touch them when you charm somebody it's just best you don't touch them flint don't touch

208
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:24,480
okay as you're as everybody's walking by let's do either an acrobatics or a stealth

209
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:30,000
as while there is room to walk by like they are kind of shambling around

210
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,320
you need to maneuver dodge and weave

211
00:24:32,319 --> 00:24:58,159
um you softly begin to move closer to them and intermingle with them and beyond where they

212
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:04,400
are walking you see through the light comes clear that there is another opening to another chamber

213
00:25:05,279 --> 00:25:12,160
as the three of you move past you hear a clang of armor and you look back over your shoulder

214
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:19,519
and manix has bumped into one of the armored zombies who takes a stumble closer to the light

215
00:25:19,519 --> 00:25:26,480
and then back and as manix tries to just kind of softly step away it turns and looks

216
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:35,039
towards you and begins to shamble with its sword raised towards manix roll for initiative

217
00:25:35,039 --> 00:25:41,599
is it just this one that has been disturbed just the one guys we try to try to kill that

218
00:25:41,599 --> 00:25:53,120
one but but don't touch anything else nat 20 i wasted it plus two 22 uh 11 hear my sadness

219
00:25:53,200 --> 00:26:00,400
17 all right thea you are up first okay maybe we can get manix to like lure it

220
00:26:01,360 --> 00:26:04,320
over to where we are so it separates from the group

221
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,760
that'd be great um

222
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:18,240
can i be like manix to like closer to the wall to get it closer to the wall so you are

223
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:25,680
saving your action until manix moves them because manix is next in the order but um i would like

224
00:26:26,559 --> 00:26:33,839
god i'm gonna you know what i'm just gonna do it um i whisper i bring out my oath bow

225
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:42,799
and i whisper swift death to those who have wronged me uh and i aim it at the head of this

226
00:26:42,799 --> 00:26:51,200
fucking zombie and what i'm trying to do is i'm trying to hit it um as it's shambling

227
00:26:52,159 --> 00:26:58,240
so that it's not going to fall like i'm gonna make sure there's no zombie directly behind it

228
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:04,960
you know like i'm not i'm trying to avoid a domino effect right so that's what i'm gonna do

229
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:08,640
so i'm gonna i'm gonna roll

230
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:24,799
as she says confidently i'm gonna roll um that's a 17 17 glances off the chainmail that this

231
00:27:24,799 --> 00:27:32,079
creature is wearing and goes into the back of one of the other zombies

232
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:40,319
and it turns and begins to shambles towards you as well um i have another turn okay

233
00:27:42,319 --> 00:27:48,720
how can amy make it work oh wait no i'm sorry oh god i just i just finished reading the paragraph

234
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:53,519
i have advantage on that role okay sorry because i knew my oath bow did something

235
00:27:54,159 --> 00:27:57,919
can we back it up just a moment is it if you name it as your enemy though yeah and how

236
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:04,320
often can you do that uh if it dies i can name another enemy so it's like a hunter's mark

237
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:10,960
essentially yeah yeah um when i make the attack against my sworn enemy i have advantage on the

238
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:16,400
role and my target gains no benefit from cover well that doesn't make any sense um

239
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:21,120
and if it takes a hit it's an extra 3d6 piercing damage

240
00:28:21,120 --> 00:28:30,080
damage okay that's better that's a 19 plus 7 so 26 that will hit so okay we rewind

241
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:36,720
the glancing blow doesn't actually happen and then the arrow strikes true into this creature

242
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:47,520
roll damage okay it gets 1d8 plus 2 and then 3d6 17 damage of the piercing variety

243
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:54,480
does it die no oh but at least it didn't hit the other one so you know that's does it fall

244
00:28:54,480 --> 00:29:00,799
or does it just no it just yeah it kind of goes into its chest breaks through the chain mail you

245
00:29:00,799 --> 00:29:07,200
hear the crunch of bones beneath it um and it continues forward it's manic oh no sorry i get

246
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:12,480
another turn all right because that was the advantage oh my god amy taking up all the turns

247
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:20,079
what is happening is this what it's like when i play yes okay that was a 9 plus 7 which

248
00:29:20,079 --> 00:29:27,680
doesn't hit but i get advantage oh my gosh 19 plus 7 again oh my rolls are great uh so that hits

249
00:29:29,599 --> 00:29:36,960
and it is 20 piercing damage tell me how you kill this uh this one goes straight through the

250
00:29:37,039 --> 00:29:46,480
eye the skull crunches inside of its helmet and you hear it like like break apart and fracture

251
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:53,759
as it falls to the ground and i yell manic's catch it manic's reaches out and catches it why

252
00:29:53,759 --> 00:29:59,200
am i catching it drag it away because if one trips on it that could stop their right thing

253
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:04,559
yeah sure it begins to drag it away not sure why i caught it and just dragged it but okay

254
00:30:04,559 --> 00:30:09,759
yeah yeah so it didn't fall into something damn it manic's just doing it doing it he drags

255
00:30:09,759 --> 00:30:18,240
it off to the side okay let's i was close and you leave the room i don't know does manic's

256
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:23,200
make it across without bumping into anything else he was like on the other side okay then

257
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:29,279
yes then yes okay you walk through the rest of this room you hear the zombies just rock back

258
00:30:29,279 --> 00:30:35,839
and forth as you enter this new chamber it's a dark kind of 30 foot hallway that narrows

259
00:30:36,399 --> 00:30:43,680
to a 10 foot um like 30 foot wide hallway that narrows to a 10 foot wide exit into

260
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:50,639
this room that you can see water lapping up in the center of um as you are about to enter

261
00:30:52,319 --> 00:30:55,759
sorry the water is in the center of the hallway the water is in the center of the

262
00:30:55,759 --> 00:31:01,759
room that you are about to enter okay so through the hallway into the next room you can see that

263
00:31:01,759 --> 00:31:08,480
there is a lake or a pond or some or a pool of some sort that is in the center of this darker

264
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,640
room that you are entering and from the light that you were seeing in the last one

265
00:31:13,279 --> 00:31:17,759
it takes a minute for your eyes to kind of focus and adjust as you enter into this darker

266
00:31:17,759 --> 00:31:25,279
chamber is there like edges around is there an exit on the other side like what can we see

267
00:31:25,359 --> 00:31:30,639
we just walk in and there's like water in the middle have you walked into you've walked

268
00:31:30,639 --> 00:31:35,839
completely into the room or are you still in the hallway i think we're just like peeking

269
00:31:35,839 --> 00:31:45,279
in okay um yeah you peek in and it it's more cavernous looking like dark rock black walls

270
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:56,000
um you see the the the water in the center um and it is just in the center there is a perimeter

271
00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:04,319
around um and there are like jut outs in along the side of the walls and within you see

272
00:32:05,039 --> 00:32:10,799
a shimmer of water kind of floating in place in each of these different jut outs that you

273
00:32:10,799 --> 00:32:17,839
can see um from your vantage point you don't see an egress you do see a wider opening

274
00:32:17,839 --> 00:32:22,559
often to the right but you don't know if it leads anywhere from where you're standing

275
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:31,759
um so on like the so like there's tidal pools on the fjords into the water is that what's

276
00:32:31,759 --> 00:32:40,799
happening like the in each of the the jet outs yeah um so um not really i might not have

277
00:32:40,799 --> 00:32:48,720
described that well so around the cavalry statues not not really more spheres um so these

278
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:56,559
alcoves hold these enormous globes oh i see so yeah they're suspended in in the air of each

279
00:32:56,559 --> 00:33:02,399
of these each of these alcoves that you see around from your vantage point you can see

280
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:13,679
three of those spheres and the spheres seem like they're made of water i see so can you

281
00:33:13,679 --> 00:33:24,639
guys swim pretty good or seems like there's definitely a monster in there right oh yeah

282
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:32,080
why else why else have a pool what's up with the water circles you can never trust a lich

283
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:38,000
to just have a pool because it is relaxing or a nice feature to have in your flow in your

284
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:49,120
flying pyramid just seems like only to keep a monster right so we don't want to disturb

285
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:57,360
this monster then i don't want to disturb the monster should we try to sneak around to the

286
00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:07,840
right where the it seems like perhaps there is an exit sure i mean we've already been detected

287
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:15,519
but i mean the least if we can just avoid some some combat water stuff is tricky it's wet

288
00:34:15,519 --> 00:34:19,440
oh and then you're wet for the rest of the adventure you're wet for the rest of the day

289
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:26,559
you are just soaking wet it's exhausting i i know shangalar knows we are here

290
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:34,800
yes but we don't know that all the creatures know we are here still a good idea to sneak

291
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:42,320
i think okay yeah i think that's a good call all right everybody as you enter roll a stealth

292
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:46,240
check i'm so stealthy

293
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,880
i'm not though because i only rolled to 12 so what i'm gonna do is i'm going to

294
00:34:54,720 --> 00:35:04,480
use one of my luck points i'm gonna roll again for disadvantage i rolled quite well

295
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,320
hmm you have disadvantage yeah i wear heavy

296
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:18,559
17 for me russ nice 20 for me oh god only 13 for me that's got a 12

297
00:35:20,159 --> 00:35:30,400
okay you enter and you see the pool a little more clearly it has sheer sides that like drop

298
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:38,639
off the water within 10 feet when you get there is lightly obscured it's kind of hazy

299
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:46,079
as you walk up to it you can't really see down into it you pass by which direction were you

300
00:35:46,079 --> 00:35:51,519
going around the pool sorry there was a right yeah bigger opening off into the right as you

301
00:35:51,519 --> 00:35:56,559
enter further into the room you turn and you see before you get to this clearing there's one

302
00:35:56,559 --> 00:36:06,239
of these large globes that is suspended in this alcove you see them more clearly now

303
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:10,880
the water's swirling around inside of it there's nothing in it that you can see

304
00:36:11,679 --> 00:36:19,759
it's just suspended there and as you get about 30 or 40 feet into this you hear a ripple

305
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:26,080
in the water oh shit i don't think we're sneaky enough you guys can we sneak faster

306
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:34,720
um sure yeah you can certainly try um everybody make a dexterity saving throw

307
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:41,120
guys my holes are on it 22 damn amy

308
00:36:41,839 --> 00:36:48,559
who am i it's been a while since i've rolled sorry 16 carla

309
00:36:52,559 --> 00:36:58,239
it was 12 for me i wasn't much better might have to retire this d20 it's doing me real dirty

310
00:36:58,799 --> 00:37:06,799
as you begin to move faster through this room all of the surfaces beneath you and the walls

311
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:16,240
begin to glisten they become slimy and wet um yen bull you slip and fall and begin sliding

312
00:37:16,240 --> 00:37:24,320
towards the open pool in the middle mannix does as well thea you see uh yen bull and mannix

313
00:37:25,039 --> 00:37:30,640
or you hear rather because you were quite stealthy and agile you feel like the ground

314
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:37,440
begin to get slick beneath you and you hear them slip and fall and begin to move like their bodies

315
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:48,319
are moving with momentum towards the pool oh god oh um hold on and i wild shape

316
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:53,680
into i don't fucking know a crocodile

317
00:37:55,440 --> 00:38:05,039
so i dive and mid-dive down i wild shape into a crocodile all of my possessions um doing that

318
00:38:05,039 --> 00:38:14,160
whole absorbs into my body thing um and i i belly slide which i assume will be much faster

319
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:22,399
than how they're sliding and i go to kind of stop like not stop them there's no stopping

320
00:38:22,399 --> 00:38:27,519
from getting into the water but i try to create a barrier between them and the water so that

321
00:38:27,519 --> 00:38:36,000
nothing can get them so you're like a surfboard sure yeah so yeah so you're you're

322
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:40,880
trying to stop them essentially from yeah make a dexterity check

323
00:38:43,199 --> 00:38:49,519
well that was a nat one so maybe i crush you to death not sure so sorry um okay so you

324
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:55,519
best intentions yada yada yada the the scales really tipped the other way my roles were

325
00:38:55,519 --> 00:39:00,559
ballin i'm just i don't know what happened carla changed her dice and now it's affecting

326
00:39:00,559 --> 00:39:08,559
you shit carla bring back your crappy dice i'm sorry with a nat one i think you run into

327
00:39:08,559 --> 00:39:19,599
rather than stop one of them odds it's mannex evens it's yen bull odds it's mannex so you

328
00:39:19,599 --> 00:39:26,400
rush into mannex pushing them further and into the pool with a loud splash sorry i think you

329
00:39:27,119 --> 00:39:31,840
you probably have enough momentum to follow them down in i do but we'll say that's the end

330
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:40,559
of your turn and it's mannex's turn and mannex sees these white tentacles almost

331
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:51,360
move through the water towards them and one of them grabs hold of mannex uh thea you're

332
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:56,320
able to see this as a crocodile it like wraps around their waist and two of them

333
00:39:56,320 --> 00:40:04,240
bludgeon mannex jesus and mannex is going to take some damage nobody sees really how bad it is

334
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:11,360
and they have to make a constitution saving throw which they do not do well at hopefully

335
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:12,320
they have a big plus

336
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:25,360
we're here in the middle nice to see you it's always nice to see you it's nice to just be

371
00:43:39,039 --> 00:43:45,199
like a plus eight to con that's right if his daughter's alive he's so strong so much better

372
00:43:47,119 --> 00:43:51,440
where is your constitution higher if your daughter dies because you've had to live with that and

373
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:58,480
grow like stronger as a person okay uh okay can i have my second turn now does hardship make

374
00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:02,800
us stronger let's have a philosophical conversation why here what doesn't kill

375
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:10,000
you makes you stronger stand a little taller um doesn't mean i'm lonely when i'm alone

376
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:17,760
so you're right kelly clarkson has taught me anything and she has so many things so sorry

377
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:23,680
could i have my second action we got all we got all hard up on me hitting mannex and i

378
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:27,519
didn't get to take my action is wild shape not an action it was i have two actions y'all

379
00:44:27,519 --> 00:44:33,519
you moved to to try to stop them from falling and that was i figured that was part of the dive

380
00:44:33,519 --> 00:44:40,159
okay i concede i yield the floor i do you know what i've only had one action for like the

381
00:44:40,159 --> 00:44:44,079
past four years so i'm really not gonna get your fill well i'm not gonna like

382
00:44:45,039 --> 00:44:50,639
be all hard up on it now flint you're up next so you see uh mannex and thea as

383
00:44:50,639 --> 00:44:53,519
crocodile go under the water and then it begins to like

384
00:44:54,400 --> 00:45:01,519
like waves begin to undulate across the surface of this across the surface of this pool

385
00:45:02,559 --> 00:45:08,239
all right do i see any more of these weird tentacle things uh you don't see the tentacle

386
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:12,559
things at all because they were seen under the water so mannex and thea were the only ones

387
00:45:12,559 --> 00:45:19,199
that saw that yeah all right it's just getting stormy for no reason i made a big splash

388
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:27,200
that is fair uh yeah i guess i'm going to uh turn my rod of lordly might into a ladder

389
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:35,600
and attempt to like throw it on over to yen bull okay by throw it you mean hold on to it on

390
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:40,640
one end and lower it down so she can like shift it on over okay um

391
00:45:41,199 --> 00:45:46,559
i'm just gonna fuck you down the hill into the water i gave you a ladder

392
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:52,960
okay is that all you're doing for your turn uh yeah i mean okay that seems like the most

393
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:57,440
pressing thing yeah okay you and uh yen bull it's yen bull's turn now so i guess you can

394
00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:06,239
coordinate what you're doing from above um i'm going to cast water walk on myself and my

395
00:46:06,240 --> 00:46:16,400
friends okay so they can walk on the water now as if it was harmless solid ground and um

396
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,520
do you have to be able to see or touch the person or is it just

397
00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:29,680
um six people within 10 willing creatures i can see are they fully submerged fully submerged

398
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:34,720
and we had established that it was obscured that doesn't i don't think that matters i

399
00:46:34,720 --> 00:46:40,240
think i'm still going to cast it on flint and i so that we can now go in the water yes sounds

400
00:46:40,240 --> 00:46:45,200
good well i mean amy turned into a crocodile she's doing all right i'm okay that's true

401
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:53,760
and i guess for my movement i am going to move um towards that ladder i don't know how

402
00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:57,920
near it is to me or or what the deal is with it it can be up to 50 feet long

403
00:46:58,559 --> 00:47:05,440
so it depends how far down you've slid i guess you said it was like a 14 foot drop

404
00:47:06,639 --> 00:47:11,840
oh yeah because you slid towards so you hadn't fallen into the water yet but yeah about 10 feet

405
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:18,720
down but yeah you're like moving have moved towards the edge so i yeah he's moving it

406
00:47:18,720 --> 00:47:24,480
towards you so you could reach it yeah okay yep then i'm gonna scramble up that ladder

407
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:32,800
sounds good um at the end of your turn um the uh a tail comes out of the darkness in the water

408
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:42,240
towards you that's a 15 to hit your crocodile yep um and you're gonna take 15 bludgeoning

409
00:47:42,240 --> 00:47:51,679
damage a lot of 15s going on here um and it's back to thea so you see this tail coming

410
00:47:51,679 --> 00:47:58,159
through the the murky water below you see these tentacles wrapped around mannax as they're

411
00:47:58,159 --> 00:48:08,879
um like panicking um you see like this dark silhouette of this creature huh i just want to

412
00:48:08,879 --> 00:48:14,159
chomp chomp on the tentacle that's holding mannax okay so that we can get the fuck out

413
00:48:14,159 --> 00:48:20,000
of here because now i'm down to four hit points because crocodile ain't too into buff

414
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:30,079
apparently okay uh so i'm going to use a bite action oh god amy's back you guys that was a six

415
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:38,480
guess who's back do back again okay um do i still have my second action because i'm still thea

416
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:45,920
and technically the amulet is still on me yeah okay cool oh there's a nat 20 all right oh damn

417
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:56,720
much better okay so um it is one d10 plus two so that's essentially two d10 plus two

418
00:48:57,599 --> 00:49:04,159
and then the target is grappled or does it crap i rolled a fucking one

419
00:49:06,159 --> 00:49:14,639
and a nine so that's 10 11 12 piercing damage and the target is grappled you need to do a

420
00:49:15,599 --> 00:49:23,119
dc of 12 on its turn on its turn uh sounds good yeah and until this grapple ends the target is

421
00:49:23,119 --> 00:49:30,559
restrained i mean the the tentacle is restrained the tentacle is restrained we'll say that the

422
00:49:30,559 --> 00:49:38,559
tentacle comes loose uh from mannax um and mannax begins to swim ferociously towards

423
00:49:38,559 --> 00:49:47,920
the surface um he's gonna try and make another tail swipe at you neat uh that's gonna be a 16

424
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:52,880
yep that'll do it 15 yeah that'll do it too so you turn back into thea i sure do

425
00:49:53,679 --> 00:49:59,679
i'm thea and you got this tentacle in your in between your teeth i bite down harder

426
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:13,519
um okay then um okay mannix manages to swim up and break the surface you hear a gasp

427
00:50:14,559 --> 00:50:20,799
from the water and the surface you see them kind of trying to swim towards uh the edge

428
00:50:20,799 --> 00:50:29,199
you're thinking go you bastard go it's the creature's turn okay flint make a wisdom saving

429
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:44,400
throw i would love to russ that is 15 okay you feel like a twinge in your in your psyche like

430
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:49,360
someone's trying to like knock at the door but they just can't quite get in like you're

431
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:53,760
familiar with this kind of feeling having borton there i think sure like you know there's

432
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:58,480
too many people in there also with the dream assault that he forwent

433
00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:06,000
mm-hmm yep in they um yeah they are unsuccessful but you feel someone trying to break in there

434
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:16,480
um and it is fucking psychic squid uh it's flint's turn uh perfect did yen bull manage

435
00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:20,800
to scurry up the ladder uh yes yen bull would have made it to the ladder and

436
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:26,800
scramble back up all right uh so maybe i'll leave the ladder out and i'll swing it on over to uh to

437
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:35,680
mannix see if they can climb on up okay we'll say that they are able to make it on their next

438
00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:43,920
turn okay um thea underneath as you kind of come back to your your own form um you

439
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:51,440
see this creature clearly as it swims past you and i'd like you to kind of

440
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:59,039
well i'll show you what you see and then um if you get up before they see it then you can

441
00:51:59,039 --> 00:52:08,720
describe it oh fuck no get out of the water get out of the water what is that such a big mouth

442
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:17,040
it's not okay nobody else sees it yet what do you do uh i i bled out a silent scream oh sorry

443
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:22,160
it's not it's not your turn but this is what you see um so flint you've moved your ladder

444
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:27,920
yen bull it's your turn uh well i still haven't seen the creature so i don't even know what's

445
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:35,520
going on and i can't see my friends down there i guess i can see mannix they're thrashing

446
00:52:35,519 --> 00:52:42,400
to try and get to the ladder flint flint hold the top of the ladder and i'm gonna go back down

447
00:52:43,119 --> 00:52:51,599
the ladder to try and help grab mannix okay um make a dexterity acrobatics check maybe

448
00:52:53,039 --> 00:52:59,440
go down a ladder well it's slippery sure yeah i mean climb down the ladder maybe a

449
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:04,559
maybe a dexterity check to try and grab them and then maybe oh okay i didn't think

450
00:53:04,559 --> 00:53:09,679
he was that close i see what you're saying yeah i mean they're within you know reachable

451
00:53:09,679 --> 00:53:16,159
distance if they were to reach for you stretch we're all just we're all just stretching and

452
00:53:16,159 --> 00:53:23,599
reaching uh it's not no no we're not doing a great job though because it's only a 12

453
00:53:23,599 --> 00:53:28,880
johnson and joanne mcleod if you want to come on to this podcast that'd be great

454
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:34,079
absolutely yeah with the zumba episode um so yeah you just kind of brush fingertips and they

455
00:53:34,079 --> 00:53:42,079
kind of dip back under um and then pop back up taking a big breath and it's anything else you

456
00:53:42,079 --> 00:53:48,880
want to do uh i don't think so i don't want to shoot any magic into that pool where my

457
00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:54,720
friends are all right back to thea add a thing i can't see um thea you see a tail swinging

458
00:53:54,720 --> 00:53:59,840
through the water towards you that's only a 10 to hit though so don't i have a turn before

459
00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:06,480
they have a turn oh shit okay well that doesn't yeah it kind of doesn't hit me anyways it blows

460
00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:11,840
by you and kind of sucks you up into this swirl of water and you get kind of tossed

461
00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:17,680
and turned now it's your turn cool well um it looks like i'm like in the middle of the

462
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:24,720
water essentially um does it can i see anything below my feet like is it just

463
00:54:24,720 --> 00:54:29,520
no it just keeps going it's a cavern okay cool i'm going to alter self

464
00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:36,160
as one of my actions i am going to adapt my body to an aquatic environment spreading gills

465
00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:40,560
and growing webbing between my fingers i can breathe underwater and gain a swimming speed

466
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:46,240
equal to my walking speed sweet so i'm going to do that sounds like a good strategy you

467
00:54:46,240 --> 00:54:51,280
know so i don't drown because i feel like you'd be like you're going to take some stress also

468
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:58,240
you haven't breathed in two rounds so i mean the crocodile yeah the crocodile had like extra

469
00:54:58,240 --> 00:55:02,400
breath holding capacity i don't think thea does she's a pot smoker i don't think that makes

470
00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:07,200
you have extra great lung capacity i don't think it hurts but i don't know if it helps

471
00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:12,320
so she's gonna do that so she um and this is the first time so she's kind of like

472
00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:16,880
looking at her fingers and like taking deep breaths and it's like then you see the face

473
00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:25,280
of this monster moving towards you and then things get real uh under underwater this thing

474
00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:31,280
is not taking any damage correct no it has i bit it okay you bit it i bit it fair enough

475
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:35,200
yeah it took don't you dare forget about that bite ross don't you dare forget about

476
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:41,760
that bite because i'm gonna cast toll the dead no i'm not this is a serious situation i'm not

477
00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:51,840
gonna get out of here i'm gonna cast blight on this dick on its dick no on this dick

478
00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:57,360
i don't know if it has a dick i haven't seen all that much of it right now just a lot of teeth

479
00:55:57,360 --> 00:56:02,800
and some tentacles and a tail apparently uh okay so necromantic energy washes over this

480
00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:09,120
creature of my choice as i put my hands out into the water i say a little prayer to a god

481
00:56:09,199 --> 00:56:14,079
that i don't know i don't think the is super religious but she's just like i've never cast

482
00:56:14,079 --> 00:56:21,920
a spell under the water let's see how this works and from her fingertips come a black inky

483
00:56:22,559 --> 00:56:27,359
cloud because normally it's like a black cloud that comes but it's a black you know when

484
00:56:27,359 --> 00:56:31,599
you're playing mario kart and someone gets the little squid it's like that fuck you up with

485
00:56:32,079 --> 00:56:41,839
exactly it's just like that except cloud here and and wraps itself around the squid and or thing

486
00:56:41,839 --> 00:56:48,719
whatever it is and the target must make a constitution saving throw before it drains

487
00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:57,039
the moisture and vitality from it oh neat okay cool okay so the target takes 8d8 necrotic

488
00:56:57,039 --> 00:57:05,199
damage 30 okay it didn't kill a good thing you rolled it well i didn't think it would

489
00:57:05,199 --> 00:57:09,840
it's taken like practically no damage as you said and this thing all that bite damage though

490
00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:17,440
like connects with its flesh and you see it like recede and turn black and it lets out

491
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:23,519
this hideous scream that sends shock waves through the water above you see like waves

492
00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:30,559
breach up and across the the top of the edge around the pool

493
00:57:32,079 --> 00:57:37,599
that's the end of your turn um yes because i turned myself into something and i did a spell

494
00:57:37,599 --> 00:57:43,519
okay manic swims it's like propelled with it and towards you yin bowl and you two begin

495
00:57:43,519 --> 00:57:48,079
to scramble up and as you reach the top of this ladder where flint is standing you see

496
00:57:48,079 --> 00:57:51,360
behind him one of these globes moving towards him

497
