[396.5s] Having been let down
[398.2s] By Lex comes along and does he does like a really cool air guitar riff with his fingers and then like
[406.5s] shreds down the the dais off in the other direction like he's some sort of like
[412.0s] Power skateboard guy and it's like flipping you the cowabunga on his way out. Is he on a skateboard remains to be seen
[419.3s] It's a Stuart little is what it is

[427.7s] Perseus runs off through the feet of the undead
[431.7s] Nair to be seen again in this episode or ever don't say that to us. He'll find a way
[439.0s] Not if I delete the character sheet
[442.1s] It'll still be in the campaign. I'll been spacing time to do it too. Damn it. What do you do?
[447.8s] Can I cast a spell at the undead? Let me say yes, you can
[453.1s] There are still hundreds of undead
[456.8s] Well, what else am I gonna do there is a bridge and a blade and an exit
[463.7s] off the dais towards the back of the cave
[467.1s] So yes, you may cast a spell. I think I'm gonna cast a spell so that we can make our escape
[474.2s] Okay, the spell is called wall of light
[477.3s] So a huge wall of bright light. I'm gonna make sure that clockwork dragons on this side of it
[484.3s] We're all we're all close enough together
[486.7s] Yeah, huge wall. They need to
[489.6s] make a con save
[492.3s] Every creature in its area, which is 60 feet by 5 feet thick
[497.8s] Dang. Okay. So basically you're blocking off a whole thing with a dais. Yeah
[503.5s] okay, cool thick wall of
[506.8s] Radiant light so thick what happens when they don't make it. Okay. Well, they're gonna be
[512.8s] It's it really murder if they're already dead. Yeah, they're gonna be blinded for one minute
[518.7s] Okay, we go to our resident crime expert
[523.2s] 12 plus 9 and take 21 radiant damage. Oh, yeah, baby
[529.9s] undead love just just just lighten them up even in it and if
[535.4s] We for some reason are still here and
[539.4s] They get another turn then they're just gonna keep having to keep eating that damage. Got it. Okay
[545.8s] lip-synchy cast wall of like
[548.5s] Huge wall is built quicker than any Trump administration could ever
[555.4s] Was possible Wow
[559.4s] Yeah
[564.7s] Like cool
[571.7s] Couple reference me
[575.0s] It's a little newer than that you're right I take it back it was very modern the the undead army comes up and crashes into it
[582.3s] they're
[583.4s] Incinerated by this radiant heat as they slow and are waiting on the other side as you
[591.6s] now I'm gonna now I'm gonna
[594.0s] Try and exit while they are blocked by a wall of radiant light lip-synchy turns and runs down
[602.9s] Oh my god, where's night hunter up with you is is she
[609.2s] Last I said all of you were up there
[611.8s] Okay, I did establish off the top that all of you were up there
[615.4s] So whether you were in the last episode or not
[617.1s] Maybe she made her way up because she realized that the undead look different than the people on top of the dais
[621.9s] Yeah, maybe you did some like Elia jumps and flips, I'm sure she taught me a thing or two
[630.8s] Sorry, I need to make connections gotta we should probably all go. Hmm
[636.4s] Come on. Oh, yeah. Come on. Y'all. What are you even doing back there?
[639.5s] I tried to do a hop on wanna hop on everybody hops on the back of the clockwork dragon
[644.7s] And then looks at big and then looks at the and then looks at the doorway and realizes the clockwork dragon is not
[650.3s] Gonna fit through the guys. I'm not gonna fit through this door. You got you got to get off
[653.6s] I mean I brought you over the bridge
[656.3s] Did I I mean it was it was a fun idea? Okay, I
[660.7s] See a wild shapes back into herself. What's the range on wall of light Carla?
[667.1s] 120 feet okay. I think I can keep it going for for a bit. Okay, awesome you all
[675.0s] Vorunax I'm gonna point them to the way that I came in whatever way that was said
[680.7s] Take care of yourselves. I can stop these for a little while get out of here save yourselves
[686.3s] You are saviors upon the land some of you I recognize from art. Although you look a little bit older than your depictions. I
[693.9s] Won't think anything of it
[695.2s] But know that Vorunax can be trusted and I will save you this day even if it cost me my life
[700.6s] Oh, no, that that's not necessary
[704.2s] Holy unnecessary sir. No, it's my holy charge. It is
[709.6s] so not
[712.1s] We we've come from the feet. Is it too early to drop this bomb? Is this in an appropriate time?
[718.8s] You're all still in the army. Yeah, we know
[721.5s] Appropriate time and I'm gonna turn I'm gonna do channel divinity and pretty much any undead within 30 feet of me need
[727.8s] To make a wisdom saving throw or be frightened for a minute or
[732.2s] okay, any of them within 30 feet of me or frightened of me and also a part of a
[737.3s] The aura of conquest means that all frightened creatures within 10 feet of me have their speed reduced to zero
[743.5s] And take psychic damage if they if starting the turn within my aura dang
[749.3s] Okay, so you'll you'll get up. You'll get a perimeter of some 30 feet
[754.0s] Who are on the opposite side of the
[756.4s] The wall of light but you won't get that 10 foot thing because nobody's that quite that nobody's within right now
[761.1s] Okay, cool
[761.9s] Well, they can move forward if they want to but they can't cuz they're frightened as Vorunax is doing his like whole leg
[767.6s] I got this and night hunter walks up and goes does this guy we need to have him. Yes. Yeah. Yeah
[776.1s] me okay, we
[778.1s] Night hunter walks up and like scoops him
[782.3s] Like she wants to she wants to whisk you off your feet
[787.0s] I think Vorunax is like kind of just
[791.9s] Behind yeah, yeah, I know I'm not even gonna resist cuz I'm just like what did what is going first a dragon now this
[799.2s] I don't know understand what's happening. Just that is okay. You understand later. Okay this way
[805.1s] Yes, as long as you don't think we need to stay and then stop these nefarious creatures
[809.4s] It's fine. No, we should just go. Okay would go that way you all tear across the bridge and through this tunnel cave system
[818.2s] Vorunax giving
[820.2s] What directions he feels he has
[823.8s] Vorunax make a
[825.7s] Probably a survival check to know if you can navigate the cave. That's a 22
[831.6s] Okay, you could make your way back to Thelonious his office or
[838.3s] You could I mean you could pretty much make your way anywhere. You want to go. Where do you want to go?
[844.2s] I probably would take them just toward the surface like
[848.9s] Out
[850.0s] Okay, just away you were moving through these tunnels with Vorunax giving you direction as you hit kind of that 120 foot
[858.3s] area you hear
[862.0s] We're gonna say you hear like an audible like snap and were as the wall of light goes out
[868.8s] and then the sound of the undead pick up again and they are
[873.2s] 120 feet but you hear them cramming their way through the tunnel system behind you it takes probably a good 10 or 15 minutes of
[883.1s] frantic running and
[885.1s] Making your way through these caves. I have to put you down now. We are going too slow
[889.7s] Okay, I can definitely walk but it has been five minutes. You are good. Yes. Yes
[895.2s] Thank you for the ride
[898.1s] before you make your way back out to the surface of
[902.4s] This
[903.7s] Underdark entrance you exit into this rocky
[908.8s] mountainous region and it's kind of this this foggy misty
[914.8s] Dampness to the air you hear echoing back from down the halls. It's gotten quieter
[920.1s] Like obviously some of them have split off down other passageways that you did not go down
[926.4s] But you still hear the echoing of the Thelonious army in the caves behind you
[932.0s] But you do have a moment to stop and take a breath
[935.9s] Okay, how big is the mouth of the cave that we came out? We'll say like the tunnel system itself was probably
[942.7s] 15 feet across at the widest and then it as you exited it exited into this much larger
[948.8s] Cavern before you came out into the open. Do you guys think we should like
[953.5s] barricade off the
[955.0s] The exit of that cave or should just keep running into the distance for our knocks
[960.0s] You have a safe house around here anywhere like I know I found myself down in that situation
[968.8s] Realized I had trailed somebody that was a little bit more powerful than I than I had anticipated
[974.3s] He's a tricky bastard. I tried to stop them and
[978.5s] You know make sure that their undead wastes were not brought upon the land
[984.1s] Really?
[985.2s] Yes, he looks around at the others like
[988.5s] That seems a little
[991.1s] That's not what I expected you to say. All right, um, we're all full of surprises
[997.0s] What would you expect me to say?
[998.8s] You know, I don't know cuz I don't know you that well
[1001.5s] But I think that maybe we can block up that entrance somehow and then find a place where we can all kind of chat
[1009.4s] You know and kind of get to know each other and to talk about you know, what's up our
[1017.1s] Destinies and stuff like that. I
[1020.6s] Mean, she's not even around to hear it
[1023.0s] I'll tell her later. Yeah
[1025.1s] Yes, I guess let's block up this hole and keep those
[1029.1s] Treacherous undead from reaching the surface and harming any people
[1035.4s] Mm-hmm. Yeah
[1038.8s] Okay
[1046.1s] Oh
[1054.0s] How do you want to block this game I know this is what I'm trying to can can I eldritch blast it and
[1060.0s] Cause rubble to fall or maybe the whole cave system to class. I don't care
[1064.0s] I was gonna ask the exact same question
[1066.0s] Should we do it together just to wreak as much havoc on it as possible? You can certainly you can certainly give it a go
[1071.6s] Okay, I'll give it an eldritch blast as well
[1074.7s] Oh
[1078.4s] You know what neither does night hunter so she'll just watch with Flynn
[1081.7s] You know what just stand beside one person's hand and then it's like you have it's like you're wearing like the Iron Man glove
[1089.3s] Flint you want to move my hands around make it really feel like you're into it. I would love to it's a cavern wall
[1099.7s] Stationary large wall. All right roll to hit the side of a barn
[1105.1s] Last
[1106.7s] 20 damage make that 20 37 Wow and 20 so 57
[1113.6s] 23
[1114.7s] 23 so it's a 60 80 80 damage. Look at you three rocking and rolling with your Eldritch blast
[1124.1s] Man Flynn is just in in awe. They're all different colors too, right?
[1128.7s] Yeah moving those hands around out. What color are yours the color of my scarf, which is like
[1134.8s] light
[1136.0s] effervescent bluish greenish cool cool cool cool chartreuse with a core of black
[1141.6s] mmm, uh
[1143.4s] I think like let's say like a Barbie pink. Not what I was gonna say
[1149.7s] Okay, so we got like green chartreuse and a pink it's like 4th of July happening over here
[1156.2s] There's bright colors everywhere Jubilee from the X-Men. That's it. Yeah
[1160.6s] If the cave begins to crumble and boulders begin to fall and as you see coming down the hallway the faces of
[1168.4s] Some of the undead with their weapons drawn and the this hideous groaning and screaming
[1174.4s] They run out and get crushed by this massive boulder which stops completely covers the entrance
[1182.6s] Well done
[1184.7s] Wow felt good
[1187.6s] Inspiration for everybody
[1189.9s] Especially Flint really what?
[1192.7s] Because of the good hand movements. That's right. Yeah, that's fair. It's like, you know the spell
[1197.5s] I do not know what inspiration does it's been so long since have you that
[1201.9s] Gives you at your choice a an advantage to a role. Okay, I thought it was I got to
[1208.7s] Change a part of the story. No, that's the plot points. We got rid of those
[1213.2s] Because you guys started to use it for garbage
[1225.1s] Some sort of game story mechanic in our hands and having it go bad
[1232.9s] It's a bold move
[1234.7s] Armies stopped you're in the in the in the in this cab open cavern of this mountainous
[1241.4s] Entrance to the underdark tunnels which you've now sealed off there. Do we go now?
[1246.5s] I was just gonna ask that same question as my head. I was going to ask where you actually came from because
[1254.4s] You were not there and then you were well, technically I am here by accident
[1260.0s] I was not supposed to come with this crew. I am glad I did though
[1263.9s] I feel like I took care of a lot of things down there
[1266.6s] May not have seen but I was swinging my ex around like crazy, but the faster that we could wrap this up
[1273.6s] Maybe we could find a way to get back home so I could see Elia who I did not get to say goodbye to
[1279.0s] Where's home?
[1280.6s] well, I
[1282.4s] Mean, it's a it's it's really simple or very complicated
[1287.5s] Shall we walk? I'll talk
[1289.7s] Yeah, maybe we should walk and talk and kind of
[1292.8s] Um
[1294.1s] so and I'm kind of looking at the others like are we just we just diving into which is gonna
[1302.7s] Uh
[1304.8s] So, um, maybe we should start by introducing ourselves. I'm lips. Thank you. Ah
[1312.8s] Lip-synchy, it's a pleasure to meet you. It is so great for the first time to see you. Yes
[1319.0s] I'm Flint fire beard. Oh, I've heard the name heard the name your reputation precedes you and

[1349.5s] By various different paths, we are all here being heroes. Yes
[1355.1s] Yes, we are. We all have chance to be here. Oh

[1361.7s] like this energy

[1379.6s] Reception plus 1030. Oh, I didn't yeah, that's right. That's role of the night
[1385.4s] With all the awkward pleasantries going on. Sorry. I'll let like Flynn. Give me his to 14. Perfect
[1393.2s] With all the awkward pleasantries going on thea you're first to hear it, but then everybody else. Here's a to this loud
[1398.8s] beating of
[1400.4s] wings coming from high up above you
[1404.4s] You
[1405.6s] Thea you first to hear it you quickly turn and you look and you see the silhouette of what looks like a very
[1412.6s] large dragon swooping down towards you as everybody else turns and looks and
[1419.5s] Coming through the fog is an explosion of this dragon's breath weapon
[1425.6s] Everybody make a dexterity saving throw dragon
[1430.4s] I
[1431.8s] Think the 20 would have been better rolled on the dexterity saving throw. No, the perception was perfect
[1444.4s] Chlorine in the water more
[1450.6s] 20 22 23 with my plus three Vorunax and lip-synchy are
[1456.7s] going to take
[1458.4s] Six the dynamic do the dynamic duo are going to take 67 acid damage
[1465.0s] Everybody else. Oh, I'm so sorry. I did not roll for Nighthunter. I'm playing two characters. Someone needs to remind me
[1470.6s] Oh, well that that is not not that's not appropriate. Well, you got you got inspiration, right?
[1477.1s] Oh, I forgot to give her inspiration. Yeah, then I'll use it. Oh

[1485.0s] 67 for the full damage
[1487.6s] 30. Oh wait, Carla is technically within 10 feet of me and gets a plus four because of an aura
[1493.0s] So okay
[1494.4s] So Carla would say air lip-synchy would take half which would bring it to 30
[1499.1s] 33 for those who who saved as this dragon now swoops down behind you an acid begins bubbling at your skin as you
[1507.0s] Disperse and run the role for initiative. Heck. Yeah, just a little dragon fight to start things off a Ross

[1819.8s] Which is you Carl? I'm so sorry and becomes deafened for five minutes. So you're wandering around like what?
[1828.0s] skin boiling
[1830.8s] Fuck I'm so sorry, but that's it. That's it
[1836.1s] For this round and each round I maintain concentration the storm produces different effects on my turn
[1842.0s] So after I I did this and then I go I'm I'm just I panicked. I'm sorry and I and I

[2101.7s] episode now
[2108.7s] I'm going to
[2111.5s] Let's all just do stupid right
[2114.1s] What's in your nine?
[2116.6s] Just looking at cuz that's what I wasted one level cell. I
[2121.9s] Am going to cast psychic scream
[2125.6s] Okay, I mean sounds right. I can't hear anything
[2128.8s] No
[2131.5s] So I need you to make an
[2134.2s] intelligence saving throw just the dragon not anybody else
[2139.6s] I wouldn't blame you if it was anyone within 5,000 feet actually the dragon and Amy. It's a 21
[2151.0s] You're gonna take 7d6
[2153.7s] Psychic damage see now this sounds like a ninth level slot. I didn't know what the fuck this was, but it's not and you won't be stunned
[2161.8s] You would have been where that would have been great. He would have fallen to the ground
[2165.5s] But I still take the damage Kate you that's half damage it was
[2169.1s] Roll full just in case you get higher and then divide by two. Where am I? God damn does
[2175.5s] Sorry, I have to open. I have to open a different character cuz that one is not really mine
[2180.4s] That's why I don't have any dice on it and I don't have enough
[2186.8s] Yeah, it's for it's 14d6 now, but if Russ rolled more damage you take hits cuz he rolled 55
[2193.8s] She's gonna show shit do you fan?
[2196.4s] 42 is what I say you take rest is great. I'll take rest mine. I rolled 55. It's a dragon
[2202.2s] I would like half of 55. Okay half of 55. So 27. Yep. Love it
[2208.1s] And then I'm also going to are we like I don't know that there's any cover we can take but if there is
[2215.4s] There's like rock, you know rocky owl coves
[2219.2s] The mouth of the fucking cave that we've loved his first jazz album
[2223.7s] So
[2230.0s] Yeah, there are different alcoves along like the the widening path there there is no like cover
[2235.9s] there is the the cavern behind you, but I will say out loud that that's a dead end and
[2242.2s] Big enough for the dragon to get into we go to the cavern
[2247.1s] Got it
[2249.7s] Maybe just not speak for the group
[2254.7s] Bar Barnaux
[2257.1s] Barnaux, can you you do something? I can't
[2261.7s] Can you and
[2263.9s] I I do the same like
[2266.9s] Punching acting out motion. Don't do it as hard as I did though. I hurt my hand. I was very aggressive
[2272.9s] Y'all remind me I'm trying to actually remember I did say Varnaux his name earlier, right?
[2278.0s] Good, I actually don't know that you did
[2280.2s] I actually don't know that you did either like I think you just said nice to meet you
[2284.3s] I don't think you said your name. Oh, maybe
[2287.9s] Barnaux is a helper or
[2292.7s] Yeah, just making sure you spoke in third person you did weird
[2296.1s] You didn't say his name out loud though as you were trying to turn turn all the undead as and get them to run
[2301.2s] Yeah, before you're whisked away. Yeah
[2303.7s] Ever ever so gracefully. Mm-hmm. I still don't know these people that well
[2309.1s] This is Barnaux's internal monologue. Yeah, which I do. There's a dragon there
[2314.7s] You like dragons, too. This is kind of their fault. They're the ones who like a cult of dragons
[2320.3s] so
[2322.1s] I'm gonna use my action and
[2325.4s] I'm gonna do this thing
[2327.3s] We're gonna just step into the shadows and it's called
[2331.5s] One with the shadows when I am in a area of dim light or darkness
[2334.8s] I can use my action to become invisible until I move or take an action or reaction
[2339.0s] So I'm gonna step into one of those alcoves and do that
[2342.7s] Okay, let's say he's a bit was staring at him yelling and was like
[2348.2s] Classic bar
[2352.1s] Should it alright that that one's on me I should have known that's what I'm gonna do that'll be my action. So
[2358.7s] I'm just gonna I'm just gonna live with that decision. Yeah. Oh, he has two fucking actions. Sorry
[2364.4s] Sorry, your second action was running away
[2367.7s] That's right. I got to keep concentration. Okay, Barnaux is forgoing. I feel like
[2374.2s] Well, my action is becoming invisible. Yeah. Yeah, but you're you're disappearing
[2379.2s] So there's no real drive in narrative for you to push it to somebody else
[2383.3s] So I think the dragon is gonna go make sense sense got
[2387.5s] mind
[2389.0s] Spikes or whichever one that was by lip-synchy
[2392.9s] Psychic screams psychic screams screaming saw Thea accidentally cast this storm
[2399.5s] You pressure. Yeah
[2401.9s] Hasn't really seen Flint do much of anything. Not a real not a real, you know, Flinton night hunter not real
[2409.9s] Problems right now. He's going to try and recharge his breath weapon, which
[2415.5s] Maybe tell you if they do or not when our flesh starts melting off. He'll let us
[2420.5s] The day giveaway, yep, cuz you'll be dead everybody make a wisdom saving throw. I don't want to
[2428.9s] 22 for see ya. I hate rolling for two characters right now. Oh zero bonus for night hunter. Hey, okay
[2435.4s] Wisdom you say yes, please 18 for
[2439.7s] 17 she's just here to hit things
[2443.5s] She's really good at it. Okay, flint and night hunter who aren't on the dragon's radar are
[2449.6s] Both frightened. Ah
[2453.3s] So you are frightened for one minute. Oh, this thing is so scary a
[2458.8s] Creature can repeat saving throughout the end of its turn ending the effect on itself and a success
[2464.3s] So you you basically have to run away?
[2467.1s] And it has that night hunter's worst nightmare
[2470.9s] I know yeah, no ancient black dragon like Jeepers the two of you is on your turns begin to
[2478.8s] It is your I'll say night hunters turn
[2482.3s] Affected by this fear. I do not understand this feeling inside of me, but must get away from dragon
[2489.1s] Dragon you are so scary. She yells in draconic and runs 40 feet in the opposite direction
[2496.8s] And can she now roll to you can roll to save yet. Do it get another 20 believe
[2504.5s] Well, that's a 16, so you're still afraid
[2507.7s] I'm gonna be afraid forever flint. I'm gonna be a hundred
[2511.0s] Billion feet away from you guys by the end of this thing flint almost at the same time you see night hunter beginning
[2516.9s] To bolt you also must run away
[2519.4s] Perfect sounds like a plan you following a close behind night hunter
[2523.2s] Don't make it quite as far because I think you only have 25 feet with your little dwarf
[2527.6s] Well, he's a little little itty-bitty dwarf and then you can also make a saving throw
[2532.3s] Wisdom perfect
[2534.4s] Well, it was a four, so we'll just we won't even bother adding the bonus for that okay night hunter and flint are booking it
[2541.1s] Away, dragon answer. What did you say to the dragon?
[2544.7s] You're so scary. I know I
[2550.5s] Understood that little less scary now
[2553.9s] Let's go back to see ya see here's the dragon say I know
[2558.9s] and goes
[2560.8s] Excuse me. Why are you doing this? Yeah, excuse me. Mr. Dragon. Hi
[2565.3s] Thea Amastasia here with the favor and free press
[2569.1s] Like soars around and lands on a perch and looks stares down at you. I
[2575.6s] Am the guardian of this cavern
[2581.0s] You are in my territory
[2584.0s] Leave now or perish
[2587.4s] Okay, okay
[2589.2s] What
[2593.1s] You see you like this this welling of
[2596.9s] Energy in its chest at the what? Oh, no, she's just deafened. She just can't hear she just can't hear but she's definitely gonna do
[2604.4s] Five. Oh fuck with the county. God damn it was guys. Let's wrap. Let's go
[2610.1s] Hunters already had that way. Let's we're leaving. Bye. I mean did we run the right way
[2614.2s] Is that the way that we were supposed to be going who cares?
[2616.7s] We're gonna follow you guys cuz I don't want to we're gonna run our Vorunax will step out and be like, okay
[2623.3s] I assume you're like
[2625.0s] Semi-close to me and I'm like, oh god. Jesus. No
[2628.7s] Let's go
[2630.1s] Yeah. Yeah, we I think we run
[2633.3s] Mm-hmm. And what a waste of a ninth level spell slot. Thanks, Russ
[2637.5s] Run as fast as you can. I'll give you a little bit of a head start
[2643.2s] What?
[2644.5s] You begin running and your conic I yell rude. Are we doing a chase with the dragon? There's no chickens to throw
[2652.1s] What exactly what are we even gonna do? What are we even see james over there? Oh
[2657.3s] My god, we killed
[2660.7s] We we well unless they go out the way that we came in
[2665.5s] And actually they could cuz all the undead followed us so there's hope for james and
[2670.6s] Sorry
[2672.1s] Flanks, they're very familiar with the Underdark. That's right. They do tours
[2676.6s] They're fine back at you know, the office just through the pamphlet stand. Yeah
[2682.6s] But there's surprise supplies. They got a home key. Just like here. There's a crossover in the works
[2690.3s] I'd listen to that you run off as this dragon is like taunting you from behind
[2695.9s] And you make it to this the edge of this forest line that's down a ways down this mountain
[2702.3s] flint and night hunter are there first and
[2707.3s] Everybody looks behind you expecting to see the dragon
[2711.6s] Toying with you it swoops up into the air and careens down near you and then flies back towards the mount
[2720.1s] elders blast
[2722.1s] I
[2724.3s] Can do it
[2725.8s] Whoo, okay. Well wasn't that fun wasn't that fun?
[2729.4s] Okay, I just want to formally apologize
[2732.6s] and
[2733.8s] I just mouth story
[2736.5s] To lip-synch II because I think
[2739.2s] You're deaf and for how long five minutes. Okay. We'll say it's like loose
[2744.9s] You know, it's kind of water through a you know through the window
[2749.1s] Underwater kind of vibe right now still it's still hard to hear but
[2753.4s] Yeah, I'm really sorry about that. I panicked. I actually haven't practiced that spell before it was brand new
[2759.1s] it's just it wasn't a good representation of
[2763.3s] Anyway, y'all have an act for attracting the attention of dragons. It seems we should have named should have a different name
[2771.3s] Yes, that was
[2774.3s] Exhilarating to say the least so okay
[2778.5s] Are we like in a clearing you made it to a forest like the edge of a forest?
[2783.3s] So there is canopy cover around you and you're in like the thick of a forest
[2787.1s] We're not in the thick but like on the edge of a forest. I think we have a lot to discuss. Oh, I mean
[2793.2s] I'm out if y'all have some things to discuss then by all means I'll stay
[2798.9s] No, no, no, um, I think we we specifically need to talk to you
[2806.9s] To me
[2809.1s] Why would you why would you need time?
[2812.0s] No, no that I'm sure you're mistaken. I'm just a local folk hero for a small town. Nothing more. Nothing less
[2821.9s] He's so oh
[2824.1s] You're really humble
[2826.9s] Thank you. I appreciate it. This guy's nice
[2831.0s] I've been told I've I'm friendly at that times and you know, so friendly
[2836.1s] I mean, I guess if there's something that I could help to do such, you know renowned heroes then
[2842.7s] Then may I be at your service? I guess. Oh
[2848.9s] Well, I'm that's
[2851.9s] that's
[2853.2s] awfully massive you I I
[2856.3s] Wonder and I kind of start like digging in my bag
[2861.3s] Just just looking for something
[2863.9s] Night hunter is really confused at this moment because it is her understanding that that
[2870.6s] we all know that he is evil and that we're here to convince him to
[2878.1s] Join us and he's not gonna want to do that and she's standing there
[2882.4s] like this so the social niceties that are going on is very like
[2887.9s] Confusing to her and she pipes up and she goes
[2895.3s] Listen we need you to to take your big stick and and and to stop being evil and the fight the orcas with us
[2903.0s] Why are we saying the things that he is so nice and he he is he helpful. What is
[2912.1s] Orcas I'm afraid I don't follow
[2914.9s] He has wand of orcas doesn't know orcas. Oh, that's no that's I I mean
[2921.4s] I took it from somebody that worshiped orcas
[2924.4s] I thought it looked like a frightful presence kind of thing and I figured, you know
[2928.9s] I protected my town and I shall claim the wastes of of battle
[2934.5s] This was my prize
[2937.9s] Assaulting night hunters intelligence. I found it
[2942.4s] Vorunax does this
[2944.4s] Does this mean anything to you? You see Vorunax like snap and he goes. Where did you get that?
[2951.0s] Who gave you that width and he starts rifling through his own bag and you see him pull out the same
[2957.3s] carving
[2958.5s] well, my
[2960.5s] Very good friend and longtime colleague
[2964.3s] you
[2966.3s] Gave it to me to give to you
[2968.6s] To tell you that you should help us
[2974.6s] So
[2976.6s] Where are you from?
[2981.6s] Well, how did you get that you got the future? Yeah, we we got it from you in the future
[2989.3s] Preposterous I I know it sounds hard to believe but we were we were very close. We worked together
[2995.6s] We were we were very close. We worked together. We kind of took over the whole world together actually
[3000.9s] But now we decided we don't want to do that anymore and we're kind of yeah
[3005.0s] You guys were kind of a big deal
[3006.5s] We we really we had this cool thing where we'd go in the airship and we'd just drop undead down
[3012.0s] Anyway, that's that sounds sick
[3014.3s] It was we did that
[3016.4s] Yeah, i'm i'm making I mean that sounds horrible
[3018.9s] What a terrible thing to do to the world making the bad part sound cooler
[3022.8s] I guess than I should but what we want to do now is not
[3027.7s] Help orcas and the world because if we end the world, that's the end of
[3033.6s] us and also
[3035.7s] What about that thing about how he?
[3040.1s] The the person that that destroyed your town
[3046.5s] And orcas just showed you what you wanted to see and said that it was
[3051.3s] Uh said that it was the gods who killed your family
[3054.8s] um, and
[3056.3s] Yes, you don't have to tell me my own history. I know you killed my family
[3059.7s] Well, no, but you see we we do have to tell you because because
[3064.5s] Future you already knows
[3066.8s] Oh, oh
[3068.8s] Oh and orcas kills you
[3071.6s] Yeah, sorry, I don't know who you think you are but uh that
[3077.3s] That is mine and he goes over and he snatches the uh
[3082.1s] The the carving away from you. No, you can't you have to believe me. We're very good friends
[3088.6s] It snatches it from your hand upsinky and Vorunax. There's like this
[3095.2s] For you
[3097.9s] There's
[3099.0s] Clearly a spell that's activated as soon as you touch it
[3103.3s] And the world around you goes dark and you hear the sound of
[3113.3s] What you tell me what's what do you hear the sense what's one of uh Vorunax's
[3118.7s] earliest memories
[3120.5s] That probably would have been stored
[3123.6s] By them by the spell that you put on this item
[3128.5s] I think one of the first memories, uh
