90
00:10:01,519 --> 00:10:06,559
the squirrels well we went in the water and we kind of we walked along the path i saw someone

91
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:14,000
in the trees last time excuse me what what like it was yeah as as everything was getting

92
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:23,039
a little bit crazy in the in the crickling creek right i saw something someone i think in the trees

98
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:54,480
climbing a tree it wasn't playing with noise it wasn't it's actually it's a bit sensitive

99
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:59,759
and i well yeah we don't like to talk about it it was fair enough sort of okay climb a tree

100

00:11:24,399 --> 00:11:33,279
ever with muscles glistening in this this high noon sun sully scales the tree quickly

104
00:11:33,279 --> 00:11:41,759

110
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:23,280
well they kind of yeah like a north northeast north northeast you see anything you

111
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:29,280
gravel oh is it how nimble are you up there i'm so fucking nimble what do you want to do

112
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:38,160
i want to look north northeast i suppose orient yourself with this imaginary landscape

113
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:43,040
that i'm building as we're as we're saying obviously the mounts are the north so i'm gonna

114
00:12:43,759 --> 00:12:49,839
you see the edge of the forest you see the rolling hills you see the there's a river that rushes

115
00:12:49,839 --> 00:12:56,000
through there's would you say a river runs through it a river runs through it yeah so

116
00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:06,240
we're looking for red hit when are we not he's hanging out with walter matthew and bill

117
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:15,440
mary but you don't see people or any humanoid guys i don't see anything going on up here

118
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:20,560
it's just like some birds and i see the mountain which looks just as far away as it always does

119
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,680
i don't have like a looky-loo i want to like look close at the mountain

120
00:13:27,680 --> 00:13:33,440
no sorry i probably got one yeah you're a fucking pirate there you go huffs it up the

121
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:39,360
tree it falls back down you want to try again that was that was a little sad

122
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:47,760
it gets part way up and falls back down okay once more you can do it oh i think it broke

123
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:54,320
oh never mind god damn it why don't you come back down then you can climb back up can i

124
00:13:54,320 --> 00:14:00,000
catch it with my mage hand before it breaks sure go for it okay i will cast my crab claw

125
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:07,360
isn't it always cast now because it is an extension of your no hand oh yes but i believe

126
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:13,039
if i want to like detach it and send it i would probably have to cast it fair enough

127
00:14:13,039 --> 00:14:19,440
right cool um you're gonna roll me a wild magic surge oh of course oh i haven't done that in a

128
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:27,279
long time uh it's a 17 uh yeah you're fine boo boring lame okay well you mean you could

129
00:14:27,279 --> 00:14:32,000
have just said you could have done that and sent it up there without me huffing it well i just

130
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:38,319
sometimes again just i'm feeling a little slow today involve yourself in the story here moot

131
00:14:38,319 --> 00:14:43,199
feeling a little slow today i woke up on the wrong side of the crickling creek oh the wrong

132
00:14:43,199 --> 00:14:50,000
side moot moot you genius maybe we gotta get on the other side of the crickling creek maybe

133
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:55,839
on this side it's the mirror world and everything doesn't work the same way as the

134
00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:02,320
other side and so maybe we have to go to the other side uh to uh have uh and our and with

135
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:08,960
the world and have it back yeah yeah what sully said did you make that out i mean they're

136
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:13,759
pretty high up but i do i do want to use the looky-loo quickly to see like is there

137
00:15:13,759 --> 00:15:18,480
movement on the mountain is there like you know like a you know like at the top of mount

138
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:30,000

139
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:37,680
landed in celestia's the the mountain uh extends up above the clouds so now it is like it is like

144
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:22,240

146
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:43,279
23 nice uh you see uh often to the side like uh a tiny like body drag marks like god really

147
00:16:43,279 --> 00:16:51,519
small like body like almost like there's two two portions of a carcass slowly dragged off in a

148
00:16:51,519 --> 00:17:00,399
way uh you see um footsteps down near the creek like a heavy movement down near the creek which

149
00:17:00,399 --> 00:17:07,359
you can equate to yourselves being down there you see a few um branches that look like they

150
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:17,119
were uh perhaps snapped off of a tree near the the creek um and when you look up it like

151
00:17:17,120 --> 00:17:23,600
there's there's broken um broken branches and twigs and stuff that has fallen and it seems to be

152
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:30,480
askew so with the footsteps down by the creek that are us are those ours from yesterday

153
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:38,320
it's like the footprints are persistent they appear to be so okay and so then presumably

154
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:42,960
the tracks of the person that moot saw would maybe also be persistent is that sort of where

155
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:48,400
the broken branches are based on moot's description yeah you could presume that

156
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:54,880
whatever he saw might have made those okay interesting interesting moot you said you

157
00:17:54,880 --> 00:18:02,559
saw someone over here yeah they may have left a trail you see these branches oh yeah well yeah

158
00:18:02,559 --> 00:18:07,680
they were in they were in the trees so yeah there must be more of those broken branches

159
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:13,600
can i look around is there a trail we could like try and track this person towards yeah yeah

160
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:19,840
you can absolutely just try and track them your survival rule holds okay um you make your way

161
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:25,200
sully are you still up in the trees yeah sully comes down he doesn't know what you guys

162
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:29,039
are doing so he comes down he's like all right there's two things that we can do we

163
00:18:29,039 --> 00:18:34,160
can go across the river and go to what could possibly be the mirror side of things or we

164
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:39,440
can do what a god said before and it's like maybe this is like the fe realm and we got to

165
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:46,080
walk away from that mountain and to get to the mountain so i think those are only two options

166
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:51,279
that are viable at this moment i came up with that myself at the top of the tree there has

167
00:18:51,279 --> 00:18:56,320
been like a one new development it's been a thing what what thing well a god maybe found

168
00:18:56,320 --> 00:19:01,920
some tracks or like oh well maybe a trail i think in a plan and you guys are down here

169
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:06,800
just doing a collaborating well it's hard to collaborate when i'm all the way up there

170
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:11,759
trying to you know see stuff well you were you were very impressive climbing that climbing

171
00:19:11,759 --> 00:19:16,800
that tree so quickly and the amount of yelling you did it was very prevalent i did a lot

172
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:23,440
of yelling you did yeah okay well tracks that's frankly it's that's a lot more

173
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:30,080
solid than what my stuff was you follow a goth and catch up with her as she is probably

174
00:19:31,039 --> 00:19:37,759
uh on her own accord um and a goth you're following these and you're you're kind of

175
00:19:37,759 --> 00:19:44,079
keeping an eye up and down trying to see where these tracks lead and they go up and over this

176
00:19:44,079 --> 00:19:51,039
this rocky hill that is off into the north northeast i believe was the directions that

177
00:19:51,119 --> 00:20:00,079
moot gave you um and they lead up and over um the the crickling creek which continues back up

178
00:20:00,079 --> 00:20:06,399
and into this so we are going into the mirror realm you come up to it let's say you cross

179
00:20:06,399 --> 00:20:13,039
over okay okay it all seems very scary it doesn't seem scary it seems like a crickling creek

180
00:20:13,839 --> 00:20:17,759
except that there was black goop in it yesterday is the only reason so i just

181
00:20:17,759 --> 00:20:22,159
yeah giving you the option so it comes up to this to the creek which is cutting through

182
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:29,359
and it looks like these tracks or the branches and movement looks like it crosses over to the

183
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:35,680
other side i'll i'll brave the mirror realm uh you cross over does everybody else follow

184
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:41,440
yeah okay everybody all all in line follows over this uh everybody's stepping through and

185
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:46,400
splashing over this little creek and walking into the other side which is very very similar

186
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:52,559
um just an aesthetic because you're just walking across a tiny creek it's not not not wild um

187
00:20:53,440 --> 00:21:00,640
and glim as you step in you hear from often to the right as far as where your directions

188
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:09,120
are um you hear like this this like slurp sound oh no guys i think it's i hear something

189
00:21:09,120 --> 00:21:16,480
it's happening again how how how wide how wide is this uh crickling creek it's not wide it's

190
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,880
can't be that wide it's a creek yeah it's a creek it's not a crickling river you guys

191
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:27,520
yeah no it's it's very it like sully was having to use a lot of river rocks in this creek

192
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:32,640
to be able to cover himself the way he was covering himself artistically yeah so i'm just

193
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:36,960
gonna go like double quick time like say like a zydeco kind of time just real quick quick

194
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:44,559
you run across and you're following these um you're following these tracks and you hear like this

195
00:21:44,559 --> 00:21:49,840
crunching noise no longer a crickling noise a crunching noise in behind you like trees are

196
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:57,680
falling in on themselves until you make it into this clearing as this last loud happens

197
00:21:58,319 --> 00:22:05,279
oh shit oh my god you look back and as you like feel like this this this blast of wind

198
00:22:05,279 --> 00:22:09,839
you look back and it appears like the forest is is pristine behind you

199
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:20,799
in the middle of this clearing is a is a hole that appears to have been dug or burrowed

200
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:30,000
and goes down into the earth how big what is the circumference of this hole

201
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:37,839
at the widest is probably about eight to ten feet and it looks like it narrows down to about

202
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:46,880
uh three and a half to four feet does it look like it comes to an end at like solid ground or

203
00:22:47,839 --> 00:22:53,279
is it like tunnel it looks like it's tunneled into the ground and do the tracks look like

204
00:22:53,279 --> 00:23:00,079
they are going into and descending into yeah yeah there's there's movement from from several

205
00:23:00,079 --> 00:23:07,200
directions implying perhaps that there is more than one creature all appear to have a similar

206
00:23:08,079 --> 00:23:15,680
shaped footstep though paw or like kind of a um more of a hoof

207
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:25,920
hoof slash claw hoof with claws hoof with claws in comparison to rex's hooves

208
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:33,600
smaller bigger same size smaller smaller okay yeah about probably a little less than half the size

209
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,840
okay can i just do like a nature check to see if that

210
00:23:39,759 --> 00:23:43,759
if i'm aware of a hoof with claws this sort of track yeah please

211
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:51,039
oh i guys i don't don't worry about it that's a five this doesn't look like it in fact it

212
00:23:51,039 --> 00:23:58,720
like it looks like if you weren't actively tracking something or just weren't really paying

213
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:03,680
attention you would think that there were two separate footprints from two separate animals

214
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:10,559
like on top of each other but that that doesn't make sense because why um i mean one was

215
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:17,759
obviously carrying the other but um you know oh they were like daddy daughter dancing with like

216
00:24:17,759 --> 00:24:23,039
it's got its feet on top of their feet and just the claws were hanging thanks for that

217
00:24:23,039 --> 00:24:30,000
amy i does this hole in the you said it was it was narrowest by how much you said it was

218
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,000
eight to ten feet in the biggest part yeah like three and a half to four feet so it's a fairly

219
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:41,359
sizable hole uh can i be so super sneaky and like stealth my way down there and peek in

220
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:46,720
you most certainly can roll for that and i will because you guys i'm stealthy as

221
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:52,880
fuck okay well i rolled a seven but i've got a plus 18 so 25 okay plus 18

222
00:24:56,240 --> 00:25:04,880
i said i'm stealthy as fuck i wasn't kidding level 20 with uh with no multi-class baby

223
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:11,279
it's like agatha's like so i think they went into the and where's yeah sully's gone

224
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:18,960
sully's disappeared hey where did sully go uh sully you make your way down silent as nobody even saw

225
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:24,960
me do it nothing they're all looking into the hole they didn't even see you they were looking

226
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:31,119
away like a goth turned to look back and then everybody was focused on a goth and turn back

227
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:35,920
you were gone um you make your way down into the hole and like you hear like the rumbling

228
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:41,680
of earth um not in an ominous way just that's the sound and the kind of the atmosphere

229
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:50,240
you hear you go down and this levels off and extends down quite a long ways

230
00:25:51,039 --> 00:25:55,039
and gets darker and darker the way you go it doesn't appear to be lit by anything

231
00:25:55,039 --> 00:26:02,240
natural you carry down i would say 40 to 50 feet before it gets too dark for you to see

232
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:08,480
anything from the light coming back and there are a couple splinters off and there are footsteps

233
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:14,559
that are going several different directions and you hear scuffling up and about about in the

234
00:26:14,559 --> 00:26:19,279
dark okay well i run back because i said i peeked into the hole but now somehow i'm

235
00:26:19,279 --> 00:26:25,519
50 feet into the hole so it escalated you didn't even see yourself go i had no idea

236
00:26:25,599 --> 00:26:33,519
was gonna do that um so i run back up and i go okay you guys uh so about like 50 feet or so

237
00:26:33,519 --> 00:26:38,720
down there it's real dark uh and there's a few different tunnels but there's for sure footsteps

238
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,480
going along the way but it got kind of creeped out because like there was no light down there

239
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:48,879
and stuff so and it's pretty small can i use my divine sense which will tell me if there

240
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:55,920
is a celestial fiend or undead yes you can great is there a celestial fiend or undead

241
00:26:55,920 --> 00:27:02,400
or any creature affected by the hallow spell answer damn it celestial fiend we want answers

242
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:13,440
and we want them now russ immediately no not not in the direction that you're going you do

243
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:21,360
get an odd not for anything in particular you get an odd sense coming from back towards the

244
00:27:21,360 --> 00:27:30,799
crickling creek but not in the direction of the whole and forward for you great well glim

245
00:27:30,799 --> 00:27:38,559
only moves forward so that's why forwards not backwards upwards not downwards and twirling

246
00:27:38,559 --> 00:27:44,000
always always twirling as you're trying to get this sense and maybe you articulate it maybe

247
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:51,119
you don't uh there's movement from inside the tunnel and you hear footsteps coming close and

248
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:57,679
then as you're as you're um standing around and perhaps talking amongst yourselves quietly

249
00:27:57,679 --> 00:28:02,879
you hear the footsteps stop and then you hear them start to slowly go back in so like we

250
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:09,680
could go in there and stuff or we can probably wait quiet out here and like like ambush

251
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:14,000
but i do think we just heard footsteps so maybe they know we're here true but

252
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:18,160
what if we pretend we leave home like make a big deal out about it like oh well we

253
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:25,200
later here we go guess there's nothing here what a big dumb hole there we go

254
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:35,200
i don't know if it worked how long do we have to wait here

255
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:41,360
i don't know like well you're the professional you were the drawest right

256
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:52,640
uh-huh a monsteteer you said that was a drawest that's what you draw stuff yeah we have to wait

257
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:58,560
and quiet for the animals to come so you can draw them like obviously that's part of it right

258
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:02,000
no i i drew naked people oh naturalist

259
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:07,920
get your own schtick

260
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:16,080
ah rude you got scooped this guy

261
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:26,240
so this might seem crazy but maybe whatever's in there could help us

262
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:31,440
oh for sure oh yeah no i mean they don't seem to be attacking us i mean unless it is the

263
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:36,400
thing that made the black goop happen but it kind of just like came up to the entrance and

264
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:41,680
then like yeah and i really should i really should have said to agoth for you specifically

265
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:47,040
that this was like an ambush of like aha you are what is down there could you help us please

266
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:53,759
not like uh like shoot them immediately as they come out oh that is a very good clarification

267
00:29:53,759 --> 00:30:04,160
that's on me so but now it's on you it's an important clarification yes i did say it now um

268
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:08,720
well sure uh it's a little crampy down there but i think if everybody were to

269
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:23,440
scrunch i don't know whose voice that was maybe we could just like give a like go a hello

270
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:29,200
oh yeah sure or sneak in i think you should do it you have the nicest voice

271
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:34,640
i mean that's it's just strong from all the practice from the the diaphragm breathing you

272
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:41,920
know you know exactly um okay well maybe you guys stay here in the trees in case like

273
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:48,720
50 scary things come out and attack oh fair enough okay okay okay uh so i'm gonna go up

274
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:52,480
to the hole everybody else is back in the trees as far as i understand it i would like

275
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:58,799
to be like on top of the hole like from the opposite end of the entrance to the hole just

276
00:30:58,799 --> 00:31:04,720
with my staff okay i wouldn't want to be so far away just ready yeah just like to whack a mole

277
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:10,559
if something come if more than one thing comes out and it looks menacing glim facing hole

278
00:31:11,119 --> 00:31:17,599
everybody else from approximately a little bit above the hole yeah yeah okay yeah downwind

279
00:31:18,159 --> 00:31:24,159
got it downwind uh are you in that group are you are you are you watching from the trees

280
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:30,480
uh i oh i guess we should have a little okay i'll watch from the trees okay

281
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:39,600
kalim you approach everybody surrounds hello hi we're just here we really we just need a little

282
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:48,960
bit of help if you wouldn't mind we're very nice uh moot you see before uh agoth and sully do

283
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,960
um a figure pop up immediately behind them

284
00:31:55,600 --> 00:32:02,480
and sit and then like leans over their shoulders what are we doing we're waiting for

285
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:09,759
something to come out of the hole oh okay excuse you did you sneeze what am i looking at

286
00:32:09,759 --> 00:32:21,839
um you see before you kind of a very satyr-esque um but not not in the traditional sense like

287
00:32:21,839 --> 00:32:28,640
there's a uh they're they're furry from like head to tail more bear-like on top uh with

288
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:34,879
like this more more teddy bear kind of features rather than like a grizzly or anything like

289
00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:43,440
lost boy yeah and then kind of the pan yeah and then kind of like the goat legs uh you know

290
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:49,840

356
00:40:08,240 --> 00:40:14,240
a zydeco sound to it which i kind of makes sense yeah the trees make that noise

357
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:23,440
did you eat the mushrooms too no i just sometimes i just you know whatever

358
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:28,240
so that guy's weird yeah who's this

359
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:45,280
so we just wait here he said maybe he'll come back i mean i feel like there's a really good

360
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:54,880
chance that they're just gone um but what were we gonna do i mean restrain him it didn't seem

361
00:40:55,280 --> 00:41:02,240
right no usually a good way to foster positive relationships with a potential guy he could take

362
00:41:02,240 --> 00:41:12,240
us anywhere it's almost nighttime normal night time or weird celestial night time

363
00:41:12,240 --> 00:41:18,720
that's only comes two hours later uh well it appears to be dusk and the sun is lowering

364
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:25,520
okay okay so we just make in camp here then are we do you think we're gonna wake up here we

365
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:31,680
gonna have to find our way back here this is uh how do we know i mean we cross the creek maybe

366
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:36,320
that oh that might have changed things did something i don't know he said that they

367
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:42,320
just go back to bed which i assume is in that hole there um and then the earth fixes itself

368
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:46,720
which is just you know talk about behind your head in the same i have a wild idea

369
00:41:46,720 --> 00:41:52,080
oh okay oh i would love to hear it what if we went into the hole i feel like that's kind of

370
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:57,680
going into somebody's house we can i agree but i think we should do it i think we should at

371
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:04,160
least ask if they just go back to their beds that's what he said right so maybe below

372
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:13,200
the dirt doesn't reset what there's only one way to find out i don't want to go first

373
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:22,000
i'll go is it too tight for a gas to get through how big is it how tall did we say a gath was oh i

374
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:28,720
don't know somewhere in the six foot range i would imagine but maybe more you you could shimmy

375
00:42:28,720 --> 00:42:34,320
down there racks definitely isn't going down there yeah yeah no the horse cannot he's not

376
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:38,880
yeah i mean we got we got racks across a bridge we're not getting racks into a

377
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:44,400
tunnel not in the tunnel glim is also about six and a half feet tall so yeah i would like to be

378
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:52,000
at the back because i don't want to be trapped in a tunnel if like these tall people somehow

379
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:57,680
get themselves wedged in there like you were somehow in between the both of them like no

380
00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:02,800
thank you yeah i i would like to be last like flamingons and i will bring up the rear yeah

381
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:09,680
we'll keep things safe back here you all shimmy in and you're you're just looking to to

382
00:43:10,720 --> 00:43:17,680
make camp under not looking for anything in particular people make camp in the quotations

383
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,680
uh yeah you go down murder everyone in their sleep

384
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:28,960
uh yeah you shimmy down and you it's very silent down there you

385
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:33,840
silly you don't hear the same as you kind of pause and listen you don't hear the same

386
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:38,320
scuffling going about you figure perhaps everybody's gone to sleep

387
00:43:39,599 --> 00:43:46,240
and as you're crawling you feel like this this tiredness just wash over you

388
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:54,800
and you're trying to to fight it off and you you feel your head hit the dirt below you all

389
00:43:54,800 --> 00:44:00,640
of you at slightly different times and then you wake up back in the clearing

404
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:34,800
the birds are chirping and from the center of your camp you hear a voice and says well you

405
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:41,519
guys left well what did nighttime came and then we were here just brought us back here

406
00:45:41,519 --> 00:45:45,440
oh this is a spot well it's a good thing i came back here yeah i just had to i just had to ask

407
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:49,759
everybody and sometimes like there's a committee that gets involved when there's big things

408
00:45:49,759 --> 00:45:54,400
happening and so you have to ask and then they have to run it by somebody else up the chain

409
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:58,239
and then they have to just pass it around and get approvals on it and then they come

410
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:03,199
back with revisions upon which we have to do and so did you guys not fall asleep oh no

411
00:46:03,199 --> 00:46:07,759
we fell asleep uh and then and then we picked up with a conversation in the morning and then

412
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:11,760
i was like ah it's about the time when they'd probably be moving down to the creek and splash

413
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:16,480
around in their nethers and uh now we're here so you want to go to the mountain

414
00:46:18,240 --> 00:46:25,520
yes yeah okay off this way and he zips and moves towards the mountain

415
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:32,160
yeah i was gonna say is he pointing towards the mountain or he was yeah okay all right then

416
00:46:33,119 --> 00:46:39,839
let's go uh you all pack up your things quickly and follow behind matamar and uh he takes you

417
00:46:39,839 --> 00:46:45,839
along the path that you took uh who knows how many days ago um leads you out of the forest

418
00:46:45,839 --> 00:46:55,119
and down through the foothills and you make it to uh uh make it to the river and you cross

419
00:46:55,119 --> 00:47:01,440
the river there's no need for a bridge uh this everybody can make it across it's not super deep

420
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:07,920
and it's okay um and he where you're following the path he diverges from the path

421
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:16,639
um and the the one side that you had followed previously wraps up and into another forest and

422
00:47:16,639 --> 00:47:21,039
he turns back after not saying anything for quite a while and he says if you if you go

423
00:47:21,039 --> 00:47:26,720
that way it just kind of just kind of loops and then brings you back sometimes you can get

424
00:47:26,720 --> 00:47:33,200
this way and is it's a little it's a little scary but i mean you all seem big and you

425
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:40,240
get those sharp sharp objects and you can probably uh we can get through it we

426
00:47:40,240 --> 00:47:46,480
sorry we got to stab someone well and maybe i didn't i don't know it's kind of like the

427
00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:52,240
it's kind of like the gloop in the creek uh and then sometimes other things reach out

428
00:47:52,240 --> 00:47:59,600
um we came down here a little bit uh at first and uh and sometimes some some of our some of

429
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:03,840
those people didn't didn't wake up the next morning in the same in the same spot so they

430
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:09,760
went somewhere huh why did they just like disappeared yeah i mean they got they got

431
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:13,440
pulled in and we're like oh it's the gloop it's like this creek we'll see you tomorrow

432
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:17,840
oh my god and you left them well your friend left you

433
00:48:18,240 --> 00:48:27,600
oh yeah and we will discuss that later however i mean you can't just assume that the put like

434
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:31,840
it is going to make you sound much worse mood because now these people automatically knew that

435
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:35,840
they would be like regenerating but i don't think you can live your life just not saving

436
00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:41,280
your friends just in case the one time that they don't come back yeah well that's something

437
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:46,960
we learned and then we just didn't come back here anymore okay so and this is also just

438
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:53,920
like this is a new thing like the river gloop or the creek like the yeah yeah i mean the

439
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:58,320
scary badness here where people disappear this is new yeah it wasn't wasn't always this way

440
00:48:59,519 --> 00:49:05,519
what used to be here uh what well just just rolling rolling hills and just nice

441
00:49:05,519 --> 00:49:12,240
beauty nice and and and right less squirrel funerals i mean there's been a few of

442
00:49:12,240 --> 00:49:19,200
those i don't know why there's been so many recently um that needs neither here nor there

443
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:28,560
um so i we go down into this this little this little break in the rocks here and then we can

444
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:37,840
pass through and that's your way out okay but just like there might be something bad in there

445
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:46,079
well i mean we're pretty okay with dealing oh yeah guys i mean we we've been around bad

446
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:55,600
way more than good yeah for like a decade so yeah tell me about it oh honey you have no idea i

447
00:49:55,600 --> 00:50:01,039
don't even want to tell you about it because it's so terrible oh yeah you should just really

448
00:50:01,039 --> 00:50:06,400
just hold close the ones you love and maybe try and save them if they like seem to be

449
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:11,760
getting attacked even if you think it's going to be fine enjoy the sun because yeah yeah and

450
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:17,920
the plants and the fresh air oh yeah right and that smell that's here yeah fresh water

451
00:50:19,519 --> 00:50:25,920
no not that smell like the like the fresh grass right right okay okay okay are you gonna are

452
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:30,639
you gonna come with us yeah sure yeah yeah yeah that was part of the plan as i would

453
00:50:30,639 --> 00:50:36,879
lead you down and we'd get through the through the crack in the ground and then lead you to

454
00:50:36,879 --> 00:50:44,879
the mountain and then get great i mean we're ready so okay great and bahamut's gonna be so

455
00:50:44,879 --> 00:50:53,920
excited to see you i'm gonna be so excited oh yeah bahamut well i mean i know him in my heart

456
00:50:53,920 --> 00:51:02,800
and i know him in the future but not it's a bit confusing but let's the short answer is yes

457
00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:11,200
do you know bahamut yeah well i mean he flies around she hasn't come down a lot recently

458
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:17,280
oh we've been trapped in this day for quite a while so maybe that has something to do with it

459
00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:22,000
has anyone been keeping track of how many dates you've been trapped in this day like

460
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:28,239
every time you wake up you like you know make a tally we did that for a while and then we got

461
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:36,320
bored bored at the data yeah hmm so it's a pretty big number yeah so it's been going on a while

462
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:44,960
it's higher than six but lower than four thousand nine hundred seventy two okay okay uh let's go

463
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:53,760
okay you all begin to walk down into this crevasse uh that breaks open and um there's

464
00:51:54,400 --> 00:52:01,039
as you get down into it like there's this immediate sense of like dread that washes over you

465
00:52:03,039 --> 00:52:10,480
oh guys feeling yeah yeah i mean for here it's really bad for here it's like a nine out of

466
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:18,159
ten but for future time i feel like this is like it's like a low three i agree yeah i mean

467
00:52:19,119 --> 00:52:25,599
right i mean it's bad i don't like it but it's like this would have been a great day

468
00:52:26,559 --> 00:52:33,679
three weeks ago yeah that is true i want to make sure that i just have my um

469
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:42,800
yeah weapons drawn my rapier of life stealing is in my hand oh fun everybody has their their

470
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:49,440
weapon of choice drawn then you're proceeding down in the sound of your footsteps is echoing

471
00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:58,160
off and down and you hear down at the end of whatever this cavern is and wherever this

472
00:52:58,159 --> 00:53:04,639
cavern terminates like this sound of like this almost like the bubbling of lava

473
00:53:07,199 --> 00:53:17,839
sound um which as as each like burble occurs like there's this tiny

474
00:53:19,599 --> 00:53:27,199
like high pitched whine that comes after it there's like these crackling noises that

475
00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:33,600
are moving along the stones and matamar is getting increasingly nervous the further you're

476
00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:44,800
walking in um the uh so we're getting towards the end there and it's where it's where the

477
00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:56,960
loop stopped for some people so we just go in there i guess wow all right oh okay

478
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,960
i mean is there going to be like a monster in here or something you're acting

479
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:06,320
yeah you're real sketchy like are you sacrificing us too then just hoping that

480
00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:13,520
with enough sacrifice that it's gonna make the day you know continue no i mean they did

481
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:19,840
talk about sacrifices part of the committee but reginald vetoed that uh pretty quick seemed

482
00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:26,400
like you guys were pretty pretty cool with what with you know the cool drawings and and the and

483
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:33,360
the green one was like uh at the holding the funeral service for that one squirrel's family

484
00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:39,920
uh it seemed like you really just got it um so if you can stop it maybe

485
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:49,039
maybe be good can i roll like an insight check on this report of the committee's decision

486
00:54:49,519 --> 00:54:55,279
please do yeah i don't see this in the minutes from the meeting at all yeah this

487
00:54:55,279 --> 00:55:00,480
original sounds pretty cool but i don't know about the rest oh dang that's a 19 on the dice

488
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:12,079
um plus nine yeah the darkest timeline does wonders so he does seem like openly nervous

489
00:55:12,559 --> 00:55:20,880
and and agitated but appears to what you can discern to be telling the truth as he understands

490
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:25,360
it it is an understandable nervousness about this horrible cavern and not a nervousness of

491
00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:30,400
like ah dang they're gonna figure it out any second yes all right don't worry we won't

492
00:55:33,119 --> 00:55:38,480
well you don't you don't have to come in with us if you're like you look very scared

493
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:45,440
do you do you have a weapon or my razor sharp wit oh dear do you have family back home do you got

494
00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:54,480
yeah yeah i mean you have those you have claws oh yeah i mean yeah yeah i could i could

495
00:55:55,280 --> 00:56:02,320
i mean and the wit yeah okay yeah um well let's okay let's go i did okay well it's your choice

496
00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:07,920
you don't have to feel like there's like one two three four there's five no i was with the weapon

497
00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:13,200
because i met you i was voted the one to have to lead you and then i'm gonna lead you it's part

498
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:22,240
of my job would you like to lead from behind me oh that's an option oh definitely okay and on

499
00:56:22,240 --> 00:56:28,880
your review we'll put that that you were just doing just a spanking good job spanking good

500
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:39,360
job all right love it okay no literal spanking please no i look at flamingands hey look we we

501
00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:46,079
know our lot we know our boundaries okay it's fine all right lead the way agoth agoth leads the

502
00:56:46,079 --> 00:56:54,720
way racks following everybody else kind of narrowing into this this this crevice and you get to

503
00:56:55,680 --> 00:57:02,000
what appears to be like a a wall in front of you and like there's this same black

504
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:07,920
ichor that you saw on the creek burbling up and out and it extends up um

505
00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:14,800
what do you do you proceed through do you what do you what do you want to do

506
00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:24,080
um glim can you sense anything off this goo yeah i'm gonna use my divine sense again

507
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:32,080
you get the same kind of vague feeling coming from all around you that you sensed back when

508
00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:37,040
you were trying to sense it at the hole it was often to the distance more towards the creek

509
00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:45,760
that same just eerie feeling but you don't sense a specific celestial undead

510
00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:55,760
uh being uh it's almost even like like there's this this like bubble around you that you can't

511
00:57:55,760 --> 00:58:03,840
sense beyond and it feels like it's it stops at whatever this this material is well i mean

512
00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:12,240
it's definitely something bad but i don't get like specific undead kind of vibes or but i

513
00:58:12,240 --> 00:58:18,000
don't know things feel weird like we're in kind of a bubble or something so we already know it's

514
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:26,800
bad it's bad i'm i'm gonna take uh one of my less cool weapons just just a plain old mace

515
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:35,760
i guess i'm gonna poke it when all else fails poke it with a stick yeah sacrificial weapon

516
00:58:35,840 --> 00:58:43,040
just in case you press the mace into up to and into this material and you feel like this this

517
00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:49,600
suction begin to pull it trying to pull it from your hand i'll hold on to it for a bit like just

518
00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:54,400
see like how powerful does the suction get i'm also like yeah i guess i could use a spear to

519
00:58:54,400 --> 00:59:02,480
really see like how far this goop goes but make a strength check all righty uh it's only a

520
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:09,679
14 uh it's it's pulled and you're trying to hold on to it and it pulls your hand in

521
00:59:10,960 --> 00:59:16,079
and you're now feeling that same suction onto your hand glim you notice a goth begin to get

522
00:59:16,079 --> 00:59:22,480
pulled into this this this material i will let go of the mace at that point i don't care

523
00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:31,199
about the mace that much it can have the mace okay well i mean this it's like this only one

524
00:59:33,039 --> 00:59:43,199
way to know for sure and uh sully runs and jumps into the black goo i thought it was gonna push me

525
00:59:43,199 --> 00:59:51,280
only one i totally thought sully was gonna push like our poor little satyr friend and i was

526
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:58,880
like damn oh no no okay sully you run at the wall and everybody sees sully run and you like

527
00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:04,400
i do a run and jump because i know it's going to be sticky i've been in this stuff before

528
01:00:05,599 --> 01:00:10,160
you know like the milk for the walls and you're in like the breakfast club pose at the end

529
01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:16,480
i am walking around the field yeah yeah yeah uh sully does that and gets slowly absorbed into

530
01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:24,240
this material he died as he lived so he's gone from sight recklessly as the burbling

531
01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:28,560
continues you see sully disappear into this acre

532
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:37,280
i'm not telling you anything yet i made my choice you did

533
01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:45,840
i guess it's just gonna shake her head sort of briefly think we maybe should have had a

534
01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:51,040
conversation about are we gonna try and damage this thing first or just go with it and just

535
01:00:51,039 --> 01:00:57,920
walk into it some more bug it yeah i think glim's same like i mean not the choice i would

536
01:00:57,920 --> 01:01:05,519
have made but can't just let my bud be in there so here i go around so i didn't like

537
01:01:05,519 --> 01:01:11,840
i'll like link arms with uh flamacans and we'll skip into the all right yeah the goop yeah

538
01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:18,880
okay here we go we're off to see what's behind this stupid ugly ichor as you all

539
01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:23,360
make your way through and in you get the same thing you hit like you don't hit the wall but

540
01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:30,400
you press yourself up against the wall and you slowly like morph through it until you each

541
01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:37,360
individually find yourselves in a dark space you all hear yourselves kind of coughing and

542
01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:42,720
spitting up whatever this is as it's tried to work its way into your ears and mouth

543
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:51,280
and it's dripping off of you now and it's a hot humid room when you hear the same bubbling like

544
01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:58,720
more um like quicker coming from the center of the room as you all pile around each other

545
01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:06,880
and try and stand up and wipe off what it what's all on you you see this giant

546
01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:16,800
giant vat in the middle of this room and inside the vat is this pulsating

547
01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:22,000
brain i was gonna say it's lord voltmore

548
01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:31,280
he's trying to get his body back this massive brain that begins uh emanating this like

549
01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:37,440
purple black light and these tentacles begin to lift up and out of this goo

550
01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:48,560
and from high up you feel the presence of different creatures or figures looming over top of you

551
01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:50,960
you
