We're not just like and we're here.

You don't see anything else 66 00:05:21,780 --> 00:05:26,620 Any sign of life anywhere else in the tower just at the tip just at the peak 67 00:05:26,939 --> 00:05:30,019 What's the top of a tower called? Just know just the tip 68 00:05:32,019 --> 00:05:35,060 Exactly how to say that just for a second and then a second 69 00:05:41,500 --> 00:05:46,340 What's everybody's passive I know yours is 20 so you probably heard you would have heard things the loudest 70 00:05:47,300 --> 00:05:51,020 18 18. So you also would have been are we talking? 71 00:05:52,660 --> 00:05:54,660 Insider investigation perception 72 00:05:55,100 --> 00:05:58,700 9 so tall gear you wouldn't have heard it. I mean you played it 73 00:05:58,700 --> 00:06:04,900 Well, you wouldn't have heard it nearly as well as yen bull or the uh, so roll investigation at disadvantage tall gear yen 74 00:06:04,900 --> 00:06:06,900 Bull just roll straight. I 75 00:06:07,500 --> 00:06:10,700 Mean you have disadvantage on everything. So everybody just roll at disadvantage 76 00:06:11,219 --> 00:06:17,860 Even me, but you're at the level one levels. Okay, I'm giving this dice one last try 77 00:06:17,860 --> 00:06:22,980 This one failed me so many times the intention to really the spectrum 78 00:06:23,659 --> 00:06:25,659 19 and a one 79 00:06:25,659 --> 00:06:28,060 My first one was an 18. Oh what? 80 00:06:29,339 --> 00:06:34,019 And then a four what's what 14 plus what 20 20 81 00:06:34,579 --> 00:06:39,819 Plus 20. Well, no, sorry. What am I investigation? Oh, I thought we were rolling 82 00:06:39,860 --> 00:06:42,659 I thought we were selling passive perception. I'm so confused 83 00:06:43,300 --> 00:06:48,060 Four plus investigation. Okay is six. Okay, not as good as that 18 84 00:06:48,060 --> 00:06:54,819 I rolled I rolled a two and then a two so those are it's a four. I'm looking oh we can combine roles now 85 00:06:54,819 --> 00:06:56,819 Yeah 86 00:06:57,100 --> 00:06:59,860 Everybody gets a four and a four a two and a two 87 00:07:00,379 --> 00:07:02,620 So you definitely heard it coming from the city 88 00:07:02,620 --> 00:07:09,100 But now that you're looking and over top you can't you can't see for the life of you where this that shout came 89 00:07:09,100 --> 00:07:16,820 From there's no sign of like torch or anything like that and you can't see any distinguishable point where 90 00:07:18,140 --> 00:07:20,140 Where undead are like? 91 00:07:20,340 --> 00:07:24,460 Convening right like they're not trying you can't see where if they're like trying to surround something 92 00:07:24,460 --> 00:07:27,260 There's just so much movement down throughout the city. I 93 00:07:29,300 --> 00:07:33,740 Don't know if you can see something but all I can see are undead and I 94 00:07:34,540 --> 00:07:37,540 Feel terrible saying this but I think we just have to go 95 00:07:38,300 --> 00:07:42,740 How do we help people we can't even see them. This is their city if they know how to get safe 96 00:07:43,700 --> 00:07:45,700 They will get safe 97 00:07:45,700 --> 00:07:49,420 Guess so it doesn't it doesn't sit right with me. I heard them 98 00:07:50,500 --> 00:07:52,660 We got to keep eyes on the prize though 99 00:07:54,420 --> 00:07:57,860 Okay, yeah, we will hope they know how to get to the tower 100 00:07:58,379 --> 00:08:04,540 We will hope we can get to the tower as you make this decision to begin to move towards the tower 101 00:08:05,140 --> 00:08:07,140 You're closing in on 102 00:08:08,140 --> 00:08:10,140 it and 103 00:08:10,540 --> 00:08:15,180 Thea out of the I guess Thea and Yenbul out of the corner of your eye you see 104 00:08:15,780 --> 00:08:18,500 Like this the light swings through 105 00:08:19,060 --> 00:08:24,580 Once towards you are you trying to stay in the light or out of the light as it's passing by like because you're flying 106 00:08:24,580 --> 00:08:29,020 In the air is it proximity to the light? Are you trying to stay? 107 00:08:30,180 --> 00:08:34,620 Lowish to the ground are we noticing that we are being like 108 00:08:35,060 --> 00:08:40,580 Like flock of bats inundated by things in the air if we're not in the light 109 00:08:40,580 --> 00:08:42,259 Yeah, that's what I was gonna say to you 110 00:08:42,259 --> 00:08:48,100 Like it would kind of depend like is the light just lighting is it is it doing anything to the creatures? 111 00:08:48,100 --> 00:08:51,500 like I think we'd stay in the light if we felt like 112 00:08:52,220 --> 00:08:54,500 That it was that would help them 113 00:08:54,980 --> 00:08:59,379 But if they're not I think there's no reason to announce our present. We just stay below it 114 00:08:59,539 --> 00:09:03,460 Yeah, agree farther out into the city. You don't notice as many 115 00:09:03,580 --> 00:09:08,820 But when you get closer to the tower itself, there's almost like a dust cloud 116 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:14,300 Surrounding the top of this tower like and it and the light is cutting through it 117 00:09:14,300 --> 00:09:17,519 I guess dispersing it as it cuts through and then you see this 118 00:09:17,660 --> 00:09:23,460 This cloud move quickly in through this faint aura of light coming off the top of this tower 119 00:09:23,820 --> 00:09:25,820 So it does look like it's carving a path through 120 00:09:25,820 --> 00:09:31,980 So if you were to try and keep up with it and maintain that position and kind of like follow it sideways 121 00:09:32,019 --> 00:09:37,659 I mean, it's you've got the magic carpet which takes your direction. So you I would say you could do that. No problem 122 00:09:38,139 --> 00:09:43,360 If that's what you wanted to do. Yeah, I think so in that like does the light go 123 00:09:43,700 --> 00:09:48,420 Like is it going all the way around in a circle or in a half circle all the way around in the circle? 124 00:09:48,420 --> 00:09:51,779 Yeah, so how many points of light are there just one? 125 00:09:53,580 --> 00:09:59,379 Yeah to remind you how Luskin set up like the arcane tower is like in the center and then there's a river that 126 00:09:59,379 --> 00:10:01,019 splits the city 127 00:10:01,019 --> 00:10:07,460 So the tower is close closer to the coastline the river splits up the city. So there are two 128 00:10:08,220 --> 00:10:11,539 Sections of city on either side you're coming up from the south side 129 00:10:11,579 --> 00:10:12,100 Yeah 130 00:10:12,100 --> 00:10:16,699 So I think I mean we're going to kind of head just towards the tower 131 00:10:17,019 --> 00:10:22,159 Rather than trying to like do a huge spiral to stay in the light to go around the tower 132 00:10:22,159 --> 00:10:28,139 I think because otherwise if there's a chance that there are some good people in there 133 00:10:28,139 --> 00:10:30,860 It'd be great to just like get there 134 00:10:31,019 --> 00:10:37,019 You make your way and the closer you get you see this cloud of creatures and it's a mix of creatures 135 00:10:37,019 --> 00:10:39,659 it's some that you've seen before like the vrocks and the 136 00:10:40,139 --> 00:10:43,100 Hairy hand McBats. Thank you. Yeah 137 00:10:43,100 --> 00:10:49,879 Yeah, but others that you haven't seen of all different shapes and sizes and levels of disgust that are 138 00:10:50,740 --> 00:10:52,740 repelled by this light 139 00:10:53,179 --> 00:10:55,179 you're able to 140 00:10:56,100 --> 00:10:58,100 Thea and Yen Bol for sure 141 00:10:58,820 --> 00:11:08,100 Are able to see that this cloud as it cuts through and you're able to kind of see through like there's almost a 142 00:11:08,620 --> 00:11:09,740 a 143 00:11:09,740 --> 00:11:10,980 bubble 144 00:11:10,980 --> 00:11:18,019 That the swarm is trying to get through like there's some sort of level of protection around the top of the tower that they can't 145 00:11:18,180 --> 00:11:19,139 penetrate 146 00:11:19,139 --> 00:11:25,940 More than just the light that's carving them like it looks like they hit a point and then they they're trying to hit against this 147 00:11:25,940 --> 00:11:27,940 force 148 00:11:28,139 --> 00:11:34,420 It looks like there's some sort of force field around the top. Maybe like a protection spell. Yes, I see that too 149 00:11:35,940 --> 00:11:39,460 Do we see and we still can't see anything in 150 00:11:40,420 --> 00:11:45,220 You said there is dim light in the tower, but we can't see like there's no signs of movement 151 00:11:45,220 --> 00:11:47,980 I mean, there's so much happening around it, too 152 00:11:48,620 --> 00:11:55,460 It's it's faint and you only really see it as it like carves through and then it gets covered up by all of these 153 00:11:55,460 --> 00:12:03,460 Creatures you do see that the creatures like they're less down near the bottom and then they kind of they're swarming up and like falling down 154 00:12:03,460 --> 00:12:09,740 And then swarming up like their moths like they're drawn to where yeah, they're they're drawn to this location 155 00:12:10,100 --> 00:12:14,180 Have you been here before is there must be entrance? 156 00:12:15,139 --> 00:12:22,960 Down lower not everyone arrives on magic carpet. Should we go lower to try to enter the tower away from 157 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:30,120 All the creatures I think so if there if there's some sort of protection spell or force field or something above 158 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,240 We may not even be able to get through it 159 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:37,139 And I don't know if we want to put ourselves into the middle of that's warm 160 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,960 yes, I mean I've got something in my back pocket if we desperately need it, but I 161 00:12:42,879 --> 00:12:49,600 Prefer not to need it.

There are bridges that lead to the 179 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:25,920 Platform that this tower is is on there are spires that come up that look like trees 180 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:32,120 And it looks like a tree growing up out of the ground at the top of this tower is where that light is coming 181 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:37,560 Out of there's this room up top where this light is emitting out of and you see this dim light. There are not 182 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:39,840 many 183 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,840 easy looking entrances 184 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,680 It looks like some of these 185 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:51,080 Down on the grounds you see some of these branches for lack of a better term have 186 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:58,240 Broken off where they broke off from there's growth over top of where they snapped off 187 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,920 Down at the bottom. There is an entrance 188 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,680 but there are no it looks like a lot of the 189 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:12,200 Entrances windows or otherwise that would have appeared up top have been allowed to grow over 190 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,200 Within this tower that looks like the only 191 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,840 Now that we fully describe it for us. Good job 192 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,800 It looks like the only 193 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:28,640 Somewhat living thing in this vicinity that you've seen that hasn't been created by Thea 194 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,400 So the only entrance you see 195 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:36,759 aside from the 196 00:15:36,759 --> 00:15:41,019 Room dim light up at the top is the entrance down at the bottom 197 00:15:41,799 --> 00:15:43,759 Which is over ground? 198 00:15:43,759 --> 00:15:49,399 No, the answers down at the bottom is not all of the like if any branch is broken off or if there's anything 199 00:15:49,559 --> 00:15:52,360 So you see a door down at the bottom 200 00:15:52,879 --> 00:15:57,959 There are like falling flying creatures that kind of drop down to the ground and then shoot back up 201 00:15:57,959 --> 00:16:01,840 So but the swarm is not nearly as much and because it's on a platform 202 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:08,960 It is not like in a sea in the middle of a sea of undead because it is raised above that 203 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:13,800 Correct. Yeah, so the platform comes up out of like the mouth of the river 204 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,759 So the river comes together and then there's this platform in the middle 205 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:22,440 The closer you get you are able to see that the bridges have been broken. So the undead 206 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,280 If there are any over there are a few and far between 207 00:16:26,519 --> 00:16:31,560 They it isn't the sea that you see on at least on the side of the city that you are 208 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,680 And most of what you see is is 209 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,280 fallen flying 210 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,280 demon type creatures 211 00:16:39,759 --> 00:16:43,000 That are have injured themselves and just battering 212 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,280 and they're 213 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:49,379 Not doing great or there they get up and they start to fly back up 214 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,440 right 215 00:16:55,519 --> 00:17:01,600 Well, it seems sort of boring but perhaps we just go to the front door can't hurt 216 00:17:01,879 --> 00:17:06,279 There you went in doubt knock on the front door. Yes. Let's try this 217 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:13,200 So yeah, well well fly down towards the front door and see how friendly they are to 218 00:17:14,039 --> 00:17:17,559 Strangers. I mean, I'm a stranger also probably a stranger. I'm not 219 00:17:18,079 --> 00:17:20,079 I'm gonna need a stealth role 220 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,000 We'll make it a collective stealth role. It's a disadvantage 221 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,000 Obviously 222 00:17:28,799 --> 00:17:30,240 Eight 223 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:35,880 Twelve was your bad five was my bad one. Oh, wait 13. I'm on plus one 224 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,920 You haven't been seen by the swarm up above 225 00:17:39,519 --> 00:17:46,680 But as you get closer to this platform and you're you're zipping as quick as you can towards the door you hear 226 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:51,079 the the cries of these creatures begin to shift and 227 00:17:52,079 --> 00:17:56,119 A cluster of them begins to rush towards you 228 00:17:56,119 --> 00:18:00,519 How big is the swarm the swarm covers like the entirety of this tree? 229 00:18:00,519 --> 00:18:04,599 But a branch like a piece of it has broken off. So there are 230 00:18:05,839 --> 00:18:09,399 Probably a dozen creatures rushing towards you at least 231 00:18:10,079 --> 00:18:16,480 Question for your ass, please. Are these fiends? Yeah, they could be fiends at least some of them 232 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,480 I'm gonna bust out a skill 233 00:18:18,799 --> 00:18:25,200 How close to us are they like they're intercepting us? Yes, I am going to channel divinity 234 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,160 abjure the extra planar 235 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:33,599 So as an action I present my holy symbol and each aberration celestial 236 00:18:33,759 --> 00:18:39,519 Elemental fae or fiend within 30 feet of you that can hear me must make a wisdom saving throw on a failed save 237 00:18:39,519 --> 00:18:42,120 The creature is turned for one minute or until it takes damage 238 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:44,920 That's a nat one. Oh 239 00:18:45,259 --> 00:18:47,259 So it's not good 240 00:18:49,120 --> 00:18:54,160 Perfect, so it turns them. Yes. Yeah, I grab my holy symbol of 241 00:18:54,799 --> 00:18:56,799 tear and I 242 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,640 Like just point up at them and say 243 00:19:00,559 --> 00:19:03,400 Leave us be yeah. We'll say they disperse 244 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:09,900 But yeah, you you you grab your dick and throw it up at them or whatever 245 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,120 Just grab your dick and throw it up 246 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,480 Fiends out of there 247 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,240 Look I gotta try and make it light 248 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:29,680 Dick 249 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,440 Joke quotient. That's right. It has not been filled 250 00:19:33,799 --> 00:19:36,880 Very low. Well, we were making some just the tip 251 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:42,599 The tear symbol is a set of scales resting on a warhammer. So I think we could just change that 252 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,880 It's basically a deck and 253 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:52,640 Yeah, we'll say that okay. Yes that succeeds enough that they disperse 254 00:19:53,319 --> 00:19:59,920 And even you you even get some that are not part of the group that's coming towards you 255 00:19:59,920 --> 00:20:05,839 But even some of the larger swarm disperses and flies off into the darkness around you 256 00:20:06,279 --> 00:20:08,920 Which allows you enough time to get down to the door? 257 00:20:09,599 --> 00:20:11,599 You move towards the door 258 00:20:12,279 --> 00:20:15,900 Naturally, it's locked. Do I know the special knock? 259 00:20:16,900 --> 00:20:21,660 Because of you know the times I've been here the last time you came here you tried to break in 260 00:20:21,820 --> 00:20:26,580 Yeah, we broke in if I remember correctly good thing.

They weren't most of them weren't super 263 00:20:36,140 --> 00:20:38,580 Excited to have your group there if I recall 264 00:20:38,580 --> 00:20:42,900 Yeah, they weren't thrilled if I remember correctly, like my cough was your only real touch point 265 00:20:43,460 --> 00:20:48,259 But everybody else was kind of like yeah at that point they they didn't care too much 266 00:20:48,820 --> 00:20:54,940 But now that things have gone to pot. Maybe they'll be excited to see perhaps maybe look at us. We're not undead 267 00:20:55,660 --> 00:20:59,740 That's what I yell I knock on the door you knock on the door and yell look at us 268 00:20:59,740 --> 00:21:06,600 We're not undead.

So it'd be a straight roll. Could I also help which would then give him advantage 283 00:22:17,980 --> 00:22:23,700 I mean you can both say that you help but one person only gets to roll with advantage in this case 284 00:22:23,700 --> 00:22:29,220 It would be just a straight roll.

All right, well and he hands it over to yen bull 515 00:39:45,420 --> 00:39:47,420 To whom may find this letter? 516 00:39:48,619 --> 00:39:54,619 The arcane brotherhood is not lost this beacon of hope is meant to guide you to our location 517 00:39:55,579 --> 00:39:58,780 Finds the arcane brotherhood in ice wind dale 518 00:39:59,900 --> 00:40:01,900 There's refuge there 519 00:40:01,900 --> 00:40:06,860 A place where the undead have slowed and cannot keep up their unrelenting force 520 00:40:07,820 --> 00:40:10,059 Macoth the crimson. Oh shit 521 00:40:10,059 --> 00:40:12,059 I 522 00:40:13,099 --> 00:40:16,299 Assumed this dead elf was a person who wrote this 523 00:40:16,860 --> 00:40:21,259 Well, I I think we did the right thing by coming here to read the letter 524 00:40:21,900 --> 00:40:23,739 but now 525 00:40:23,739 --> 00:40:25,739 We have to leave here again 526 00:40:26,299 --> 00:40:28,299 Should we? 527 00:40:29,380 --> 00:40:32,960 Explore the tower more perhaps rest 528 00:40:35,139 --> 00:40:39,579 Resting is probably a good idea. I I'd bet dollars to doughnuts 529 00:40:40,059 --> 00:40:42,460 That the tower is empty for anything that we could 530 00:40:44,139 --> 00:40:48,299 You know salvage out of it. I I would imagine as they left they took anything of value 531 00:40:48,940 --> 00:40:55,579 And left enough power to send this light off for a while before it'll finally fail probably at some point 532 00:40:57,259 --> 00:40:59,259 Yes, I bet this fellow was 533 00:41:00,940 --> 00:41:06,619 The last one in the tower, uh, well, I I think I think resting here is a really great idea 534 00:41:06,860 --> 00:41:08,860 I also think maybe looking 535 00:41:09,579 --> 00:41:12,620 Throughout the tower to see if there's anything helpful 536 00:41:13,500 --> 00:41:19,900 Might also be a good idea.
