00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:15,120
You hear a huge rumbling sound, and then up out of the ground you see this claw

3
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:19,280
and head of this monster as it emerges up from the storage room down below.

4
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,600

13
00:01:06,320 --> 00:01:09,439
We hope to see you over there. And now fuck it, let's play!

14
00:01:16,159 --> 00:01:21,760
Bizard, knowing where the stables are, you're going, I assume, the most direct route there, yes?

15
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,719
Yep. Okay, knowing how

16
00:01:24,719 --> 00:01:28,960
Alydin moves to the city, are you going the most direct route there?

17
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:39,280
I think yes. One, because it's the middle of the night, streets are empty. Well, streets were

18
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:48,719
empty, and like her main concern is that she's got like a whole bunch of smaller than her

19
00:01:48,719 --> 00:01:54,000
kids and a scary thing in the basement. Like we're fucking getting out into the public eye.

20
00:01:55,439 --> 00:01:58,480
Stranger danger, and we want to be around some grownups.

21
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:04,560
Okay, great. So we see Alydin in front, Tally playing caboose, ushering these kids out.

22
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,480
Come on, everybody, let's go, let's go, keep it up.

23
00:02:07,359 --> 00:02:14,560
You just gotta, and I, I, Alydin kind of like falls back a little bit and grabs

24
00:02:15,199 --> 00:02:20,560
a couple kids like by the arm and like hauls them up on her back piggyback style,

25
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,640
and I'm like, carry them, Tally, carry them.

26
00:02:22,640 --> 00:02:26,240
You see Tally picking up one of the, a couple of the smaller kids.

27
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:26,960
Football star.

28
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:32,240
Yeah, like just trying to like drag them. Tally doesn't have a lot of muscle mass as it is,

29
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,560
like just trying to do what you're doing.

30
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:35,920
We're underfed children.

31
00:02:35,920 --> 00:02:42,080
You make it down the street, and then you hear from a couple different points in the city,

32
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,160
you hear this howling call that I've been describing so far.

33
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,600
You hear that up in towards the direction you're going,

34
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:56,160
but more importantly, from where you're coming, you hear it louder and it like echoes out,

35
00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:00,080
like you turn and you look and you see that there are a couple street lamps,

36
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:07,280
and it's almost like there's this, this wave effect that's happening around the light as you

37
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:14,640
hear this sound, and then as you turn back and rush forwards, you round a corner knowing that

38
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:18,319
this is, you know, you're heading down towards the magic closet.

39
00:03:18,319 --> 00:03:20,879
You run square into the chest of Bazaar.

40
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,599
There's, there's a monster.

41
00:03:25,599 --> 00:03:26,560
There's a monster.

42
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:27,280
There's a monster.

43
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:27,599
I know.

44
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:29,360
Come on, let's go.

45
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,240
And I turn around and I say, follow me right here.

46
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,759
Come on, all of you.

47
00:03:33,759 --> 00:03:36,400
And I make sure that I am actually behind them.

48
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,240
And Alydin, you know where to go.

49
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,319
Alydin takes off with a kid on her back.

50
00:03:41,039 --> 00:03:42,080
Come on, you guys.

51
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:42,719
Yeah, we're coming.

52
00:03:42,719 --> 00:03:43,280
Okay, come on.

53
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:44,080
I'm ready to go.

54
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:44,480
Let's go.

55
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:45,920
Okay, let's go.

56
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:46,480
Do we turn?

57
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:47,840
Or what do we do?

58
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:48,640
I can't care anymore.

59
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:49,439
Use your strong light.

60
00:03:50,879 --> 00:03:55,120
As you make sure that you're behind all these kids, you look back down towards

61
00:03:55,120 --> 00:04:00,960
where the stable is and you hear like this crunching noise coming from that direction.

62
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,360
You can't see a creature yet.

63
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:04,400
You hear the howls.

64
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,080
You've heard the howls as you've been running this far so far.

65
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,439
But you hear another one coming directly from the stable.

66
00:04:11,439 --> 00:04:14,480
I'm going to be backing up as the kids.

67
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:18,560
I imagine I can walk as fast backwards as kids can run forward.

68
00:04:19,199 --> 00:04:21,680
So yeah, I'm keeping an eye on our six.

69
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:27,439
Alydin, you're making a run for the magic closet.

70
00:04:27,439 --> 00:04:30,879
Every tally, holding everybody as much as they can.

71
00:04:30,879 --> 00:04:33,600
Bizarre, you're hanging back a little bit.

72
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:38,160
You're passing by different side streets and you see military and guards flooding

73
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:45,200
with torchlight and having their weapons drawn and are rushing around your position.

74
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:49,280
You round a final corner and you see the magic closet up in the distance.

75
00:04:49,280 --> 00:04:55,200
Bizarre, you see these guards running up from you're kind of down the main street there.

76
00:04:55,200 --> 00:05:01,280
You see them rushing over the bridge and as you turn back to look down the direction

77
00:05:01,280 --> 00:05:09,120
you come you see this shadowy hulking figure coming around the corner on all fours

78
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,680
and these beady red eyes turn and look at you.

79
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:19,360
And then it turns away as it sees that there are several soldiers coming up behind

80
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,600
and like bolts into an alleyway.

81
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,440
Instinctively Bizarre would just launch off a shard of ice

82
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,200
from his wrist trying to like hit it as it rounds the corner.

83
00:05:29,199 --> 00:05:31,039
Well that's a nat one.

84
00:05:32,079 --> 00:05:33,680
So a three.

85
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,199
Oh my god you freeze its butt.

86
00:05:36,879 --> 00:05:43,759
So it takes eight cold damage and it will have disadvantage on its next weapon attack

87
00:05:43,759 --> 00:05:47,599
before the end of its next turn so I don't think anything's going to come of that but

88
00:05:47,599 --> 00:05:52,560
as he does Bizarre's going to point it out to the to the militia or to the military people

89
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:57,279
and say off from the stable ran down that way look for the frost trail.

90
00:05:57,280 --> 00:05:58,080
Will do thank you.

91
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:03,440
And they rush off after there's three of them following down your directions there.

92
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,360
Alydin you've made it to the front door of the magic closet.

93
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,680
I assume you've left it unlocked.

94
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,360
I think in his hurried state yeah he probably wouldn't have thought to

95
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,600
thought a lot he's like the danger of the town isn't going to be stealing my shit.

96
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:24,000
Like I mean though a town's on fire looters oh yeah right but if you were

97
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:29,199
if I was running to save some children I likely wouldn't stop to lock up the shop.

98
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:31,759
That seems logical.

99
00:06:31,759 --> 00:06:40,480
So Alydin like hoping that that's the case runs like full on and wrenches the knob

100
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:46,160
as she hits the door and hoping it's going to swing open into safety.

101
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,120
And it does so.

102
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:51,759
Stumble into it and then get inside and the kids pile in behind you followed quickly

103
00:06:51,759 --> 00:07:00,319
by Bazaar who shuts the door locks it and as you look out into the street Bazaar you see

104
00:07:01,039 --> 00:07:07,199
more military pounding on doors as they're walking through and they're blocking off streets.

105
00:07:11,519 --> 00:07:17,039
Cav you're making your way to the bridge and on the side you're on the noble side

106
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,040
you see a squadron of soldiers.

107
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:23,600
It's relatively quiet otherwise on this side but you do have visibility quite

108
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:28,960
clearly to the other side where you see another squadron of soldiers

109
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:33,280
barring people from the artisan district from crossing the bridge.

110
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,560
Just imagine him like power walking making my way downtown

111
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:45,360
walking face to face I just I look like I have somewhere to be so they don't bother.

112
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:47,920
Exactly you just look like you're on a mission.

113
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,480
You've got the white cap and your nightgown.

114
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,400
Oh my god are you still in your jammies?

115
00:07:53,759 --> 00:07:54,800
Only time will tell.

116
00:07:54,800 --> 00:08:03,920
Didn't say he changed so there are four guards on one side there are six guards on the other

117
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:08,240
side they don't appear to be letting people across from the artisan district.

118
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:13,199
Does Cav still think this is because of the heist because he knows nothing of this monster

119
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:20,560
I mean he definitely thinks it's still a possibility but he's been seeing people

120
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:25,599
running in every direction and something's going down somewhere and yeah no one seems

121
00:08:25,599 --> 00:08:30,800
to be really hassling him so he's less inclined to think it's about that but still

122
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,000
in the back of his mind is like there's a possibility.

123
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:40,960
Basically from your place to here you would have heard similar howls

124
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:47,360
coming from over the river so nothing as loud as what's been described from people

125
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,280
who are directly surrounding these creatures but you would have heard that echoing across

126
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:58,400
the river a nature check could attempt to place it if you want to try that.

127
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:03,360
Sure well it's a four before any bonus so it's probably not.

128
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,360
Definitely hear it definitely get a sense that it's some sort of creature or animal

129
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,840
but don't make the connection that it could be the same creature or creature type that

130
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,759
came from those those tunnels.

131
00:09:13,759 --> 00:09:18,720
I guess I'll just go towards the guards that are guarding the bridge.

132
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,960
Hi um what is happening?

133
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,560
Sir you need to get back into your home.

134
00:09:25,279 --> 00:09:29,039
Oh well okay I don't really I okay long story short I'm hearing like a.

135
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,320
Down to the military barracks then we need to get you safe.

136
00:09:33,039 --> 00:09:35,519
I see you're pointing at me yep no problem.

137
00:09:36,079 --> 00:09:39,039
Um okay which direction that way for the barracks.

138
00:09:40,319 --> 00:09:43,840
He looks dumbfounded that you don't know where the barracks is but it's

139
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,879
yes lights over there go that way.

140
00:09:48,879 --> 00:09:54,799
Okay can do thank you they start to like turn that way and walk away a little bit

141
00:09:54,799 --> 00:09:59,039
until he's like not watching me anymore and then I try to find a place to like get out of sight.

142
00:10:02,079 --> 00:10:03,120
Roll for stealth.

143
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,200
I mean I really don't want to go to these barracks.

144
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,560
Yeah no that's fair so you're trying to get across the river.

145
00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:13,759
This is the only bridge across the river.

146
00:10:13,759 --> 00:10:19,919
However there's a dinghy that's tied up real old there's a dingy one paddle.

147
00:10:21,759 --> 00:10:26,639
Yeah you move away from the guards enough that they believe that you're

148
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:31,360
going where they've told you to go but then you have a moment to kind of duck down

149
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:36,800
in the embankment to see if there's another way across and as you get down through this brush

150
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,480
first what's your passive perception?

151
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:42,080
Passive perception is 14.

152
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:48,000
Okay that's probably enough so you get down the the embankment and you look over to the

153
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:53,519
other side of the city and you see just droves of people being moved to ships

154
00:10:53,519 --> 00:10:58,639
being moved to the docks being moved away from a the bridge but also the city on the other

155
00:10:58,639 --> 00:11:06,080
side. There are military on there escorting people down but on the rooftops behind this

156
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:14,000
group of people you see this shadowy creature like leap from one the top of one building

157
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:18,399
over a street and crunches down on top of the next building.

158
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:23,039
You get down to the bottom of this embankment and suddenly some memory comes back because

159
00:11:23,039 --> 00:11:27,439
not only do you see this small fishing boat but you remember being out on it.

160
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:32,400
It's Bench's small fishing boat. Do you try to use it?

161
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:33,440
Absolutely.

162
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,800
All right let's hop in and make an athletics roll.

163
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,480
Roll for row row row your boat.

164
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:39,760
That is a 17.

165
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,520
Cav comes from a long line of seafaring half-elves.

166
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:48,880
Of course of course you push the dinghy out and hop in and it keeps the water out well

167
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:54,080
enough and you begin making your way you're moving down obviously with the with the flow

168
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:59,360
of the river but you seem to have no issue and you're not catching the attention of

169
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,080
any guards on either side at this moment.

170
00:12:02,879 --> 00:12:09,120
We'll be right back. It's the middle.

171
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,759
Welcome to the middle everybody. How are you today?

172
00:12:11,759 --> 00:12:12,560
I'm good thanks.

173
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:14,320
Yeah that's great.

174
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,600
Yeah yeah but also all the people listening.

175
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:18,560
All the people listening.

176
00:12:18,560 --> 00:12:20,240
Yeah you guys do it too.

177
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:25,919
It was an earnest answering of the question as she looked at me like yeah I forgot we were

178
00:12:25,919 --> 00:12:27,120
recording and it's okay.

179
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:29,440
Just hanging out.

180
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,320
Yeah just having a good time getting these episodes out here.

181
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,960
We're very happy to be back for season four.

182
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:36,480
Oh god so happy.

183
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,120
Yeah we've got high action high excitement.

184
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,600
Oh man there's some danger.

185
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,279
There's some real danger you know.

186
00:12:43,279 --> 00:12:45,600
Children are in danger.

187
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,560
They are I'm putting children in danger is what I'm doing.

188
00:12:48,560 --> 00:12:50,720
Holy shit what else is new.

189
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:55,200
We talk about it in the down time which didn't come out after last episode because we split

190
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,760
one big session putting it out for two episodes.

191
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,280
That'd be too many spoilies I think.

192
00:12:59,920 --> 00:13:04,640
Absolutely so in the down time which will come out basically right after this episode

193
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,600
if you want to join us at patreon.com slash dumb dragging cast.

194
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,600
We talk about the plan for next episode which.

195
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,120
That's right we're planning.

196
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:17,280
We're using our down time productively.

197
00:13:17,279 --> 00:13:22,879
Yeah absolutely 100% productively planning is happening in the down time.

198
00:13:23,919 --> 00:13:24,720
That's the word.

199
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:25,919
But that's not all.

200
00:13:25,919 --> 00:13:27,120
Yeah that's not all.

201
00:13:28,159 --> 00:13:28,959
Tomfoolery.

202
00:13:28,959 --> 00:13:33,679
We'll let you listen to the rest of this episode and then it will probably all make sense.

203
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:34,959
So come join us over there.

204
00:13:35,519 --> 00:13:40,480

We'll get you back to the episode.

210
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:50,320
You have a great week.

211
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:50,800
Okay bye.

212
00:14:02,560 --> 00:14:06,640
We'll cut back to Dace and Bonwyn.

213
00:14:07,680 --> 00:14:08,160
You've been.

214
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:09,200
Monster hunters.

215
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:10,400
Monster hunters.

216
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,720
You've been rushing through the streets.

217
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:19,920
Make an investigation roll with advantage for Dace being with you doing basically the same thing.

218
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:21,440
17.

219
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:22,560
So are we heading.

220
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:23,680
Towards the bridge.

221
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:25,600
Oh do they want to eat the rich?

222
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,040
You're kind of changing my mind about the monsters.

223
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:32,879
They did fuck up all my stuff though.

224
00:14:32,879 --> 00:14:33,920
What's their intention?

225
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:37,680
Tell me a lot to think about.

226
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:44,640
Yes so you are chasing after this creature and you're making your way towards the bridge

227
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:48,240
and you're getting closer and you're weaving through the streets trying to get a view of it.

228
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:54,960
Every chance you get just like line of sight on it it ducks over another building

229
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,720
and you lose it and have to rush ahead.

230
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:04,000
You make your way to like the intersection of like the docks and the bridge and immediately

231
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:09,279
you see that people are being barred from going on to the noble side of the city.

232
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,240
You see that they're being ushered down to the docks.

233
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,159
You see Cav on the other side of the river

234
00:15:17,039 --> 00:15:25,120
making his way slowly down this embankment and then like stumble upon a small little rowboat

235
00:15:25,759 --> 00:15:30,799
and then as you see that see all of this taking all this in this creature that you've

236
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:37,600
been chasing leaps across the street from where you are and like crunches down on a building to

237
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:43,920
your left which is making its way down towards the people who are being ushered down to the

238
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:51,040
docks. I had already started making my way towards the soldiers that were blocking people

239
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:56,560
from crossing the bridge as as soon as I saw that so I am keeping an eye on whatever little

240
00:15:56,560 --> 00:16:03,360
adventure Cav is having on the riverbank there but I'm already approaching them and I'm pissed.

241
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:10,560
Like what are you doing? There is a giant creature right there and you're just what?

242
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:12,480
Stopping us from crossing?

243
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,080
We're getting everybody to safety.

244
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,520
We're gonna move them out into the lake and everything's gonna be okay.

245
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,200
Do you know if this guy can swim?

246
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,760
I'm pointing up where the creature just landed like we don't know what the

247
00:16:23,759 --> 00:16:30,240
fuck this is. What are you doing? Your people are gonna die because of you right now.

248
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,200
He looks down at you and says we're following orders.

249
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:40,080
Okay but bear in mind you're gonna die too. You're also over here with us

250
00:16:40,639 --> 00:16:44,159
and that and however many more of those there are.

251
00:16:45,279 --> 00:16:47,200
And intimidation roll.

252
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,319
What if I made a persuasion?

253
00:16:50,319 --> 00:16:53,279
Yeah however you want to do persuasion or intimidation you're coming.

254
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:57,360
I'm not that intimidating but I am pretty persuasive so that's a dirty 20.

255
00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:03,759
Okay perfect looks down to you looks and sees the people moving to the docks and then

256
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:12,240
kind of all happening concurrently with the monster being actually visible looks to you

257
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:20,960
looks to the people the monster and then sees Dace running around the corner and he doesn't

258
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:28,000
drop his weapons but drops his guard and he nudges the guys beside him and they begin to

259
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,880
rush down towards the people at the docks as well.

260
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:37,039
Yes great idea help people get to safety instead of just blocking them from getting to safety.

261
00:17:37,039 --> 00:17:38,880
Have a fucking conscience.

262
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:45,840
Dace now on your position says look we'll deal with this later they're they're moving now

263
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:49,440
we need to stop that whatever whatever the fuck that is.

264
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:58,400
Amazing I do have this and I pull out this like crazy five pointed star thing and I like go

265
00:17:59,360 --> 00:18:04,720
and all these extra little blades pop out of it and it's like I mean it looks awesome.

266
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,960
It's unnecessary and I'm here for it.

267
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,320
Is it functional?

268
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:09,840
I mean all the blades are sharp.

269
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:14,880
Great love it bring it anybody anybody else you can get let's do it the guards are going

270
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:20,000
to be moving people we can get a few of them but we need to stop whatever that is.

271
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,680
How is Cav's boat adventure going at this point can I look to see.

272
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:31,680
At this point yes Cav has made it across and now it's the awkward one man stumble

273
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:38,320
to try and get the the boat on the riverbank so it's like continuing to move you can't

274
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:44,000
quite paddle it quite there absolutely you're unknown if you're still in your nightgown.

275
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:48,160
Cav just jump out come on we need your help.

276
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:53,279
Okay yeah got it yeah sorry it's yeah old times.

277
00:18:53,279 --> 00:18:59,119
Okay Cav is making his way up into the docks this creature's up on the building

278
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:07,759
so this creature moves on all fours it's got dark gray almost mottled black skin

279
00:19:07,759 --> 00:19:15,200
that looks like it's rolling up all down its body it's got these huge like four claws that

280
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:21,680
extend over the edge of this building it has these tusks that come out of the back of its

281
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:29,920
head and down around its chin these giant gnashing teeth and these red like huge red beady

282
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:37,680
eyes this is not a creature that you've heard of come across or seen in the wild

283
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:44,000
and it gives you the same spine tingling chill of the creature that you met at a distance

284
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:51,600
down in in the caves again at this time and as you're all rushing towards this building

285
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:58,000
trying to figure out how to attack where to attack what to do it lets out this howl in

286
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:04,799
this echoing 60-foot cone down towards all this group of people who are now trying to be ushered

287
00:20:04,799 --> 00:20:07,680
off ships and out of the docks and back towards the bridge

288
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:19,519
and they're going to need to make a wisdom saving throw which half of them do half of them

289
00:20:19,519 --> 00:20:24,799
don't what happened to the half that don't thought the soldiers were going to help them

290
00:20:24,799 --> 00:20:31,200
get on the boats and like get more organization yeah there's some have some of that happening

291
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,879
there's some trying to get them you know ones that are closer trying to get back to the

292
00:20:34,879 --> 00:20:39,440
bridge some trying to get onto the ship but there's a large group of them to get hit by

293
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:48,319
this mind-breaking howl so everybody in this cone who failed which is a considerable number

294
00:20:48,319 --> 00:20:55,519
of them all clutch their ears and drop to their knees and let out the cries of their own

295
00:20:56,079 --> 00:21:01,359
many of them scatter and some of them turn and look at this creature and you see

296
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:06,480
like the blood rush from their face as they are now panicking trying to get on these ships

297
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:12,960
that are being like rocked for the number of people that are on them and running away from

298
00:21:13,759 --> 00:21:17,680
back to the magic closet for a moment

299
00:21:19,519 --> 00:21:23,440
we're just chilling we're just chilling in the magic closet found a ouija board

00:23:31,519 --> 00:23:39,120
decision well i'm coming let's go head out the door lock the door behind me

323
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:45,040
and i start making my way towards where the screams are happening i'll cast mage armor along

324
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:49,840
the way because it seems like i'll need to be ready for that so i guess two potential ways

325
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:54,080
you could go down the street and out and back kind of come in from behind whatever's

326
00:23:54,079 --> 00:24:00,319
happening or you could cut through between the buildings and make your way down that way

327
00:24:00,319 --> 00:24:08,480
Alydin which way is faster this way but you're like kind of bigger so it might be that's okay

328
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:13,839
follow me and she like screws off two of you rush as you hear another howl

329
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:23,519
you also hear as you see lights down from the docks you hear a returning howl coming from

330
00:24:23,519 --> 00:24:31,839
further back in the city cutting back to Bonwyn dace and Kavlaran Kavlaran you've made it back

331
00:24:31,839 --> 00:24:38,559
up the hill towards Bonwyn and dace the three of you are together now arrows are flying Bonwyn

332
00:24:38,559 --> 00:24:43,920
you catch out of the corner of your eye you see Alydin pop out on the other side of the dock

333
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:50,559
but from between two buildings and then shortly followed thereafter by bizarre i call to them it's

334
00:24:50,559 --> 00:24:57,039
up there come here come here i i look to yeah i looked at bizarre make our way over the two of you

335
00:24:57,039 --> 00:25:02,639
weave through the masses of people that are and that are panicking and fleeing in all directions

336
00:25:02,639 --> 00:25:08,079
and the creature lets out another howl but certainly not as loud as that last one that

337
00:25:08,079 --> 00:25:15,839
you heard as bizarre and Alydin are rushing over to your location Bonwyn and Kavlaran

338
00:25:15,839 --> 00:25:20,879
you turn and you see on the other side of the main street where this one had hopped across

339
00:25:20,879 --> 00:25:26,399
you see the red eyes of another one of these creatures coming around the corner on street

340
00:25:26,399 --> 00:25:33,919
level and then from the far side of the dock you hear another crunch on a rooftop and there

341
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:39,440
are three of these creatures surrounding your location so you guys have a plan right

342
