00:09:13,360 We're good. 204 00:09:14,639 --> 00:09:18,959 So you see quite clearly with your dark vision, 205 00:09:18,959 --> 00:09:24,879 you see big gouge marks of what looks like claws. 206 00:09:24,879 --> 00:09:26,799 Now, looking at the, you know, 207 00:09:26,799 --> 00:09:29,600 thinking of the drawing that Bizard gave you, 208 00:09:30,560 --> 00:09:35,120 these line up very similarly with what you saw in that drawing 209 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,879 and what you've heard of the Howler. 210 00:09:36,879 --> 00:09:40,560 They have four predominant claws 211 00:09:40,560 --> 00:09:42,240 that would be able to make these marks. 212 00:09:42,879 --> 00:09:47,120 And as you look down into this ladder shaft, 213 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:52,000 it looks like this creature is able to scale the wall. 214 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,240 Like it's not using the ladder itself, 215 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,440 it's scaling the stone beside it. 216 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:58,240 Oh, hell no. 217 00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:58,740 Okay. 218 00:09:59,759 --> 00:10:00,720 Terrifying. 219 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,159 Glad I haven't lit my torch yet. 220 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,759 Well, you're going to be horrified in just a second. 221 00:10:05,759 --> 00:10:10,080 I pull out, I reach into my tunic 222 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:16,159 and I pull out a many pointed star amulant from around my neck 223 00:10:16,159 --> 00:10:19,120 and I channel my holy power through it 224 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:24,720 and I will use my eyes of night. 225 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,759 I will expand outward my ability to see 226 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,080 up to four wing creatures within 10 feet of me. 227 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:36,000 So that's going to be Cav and Bizard and Bondin and Bench. 228 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,840 All of you for the next hour can see 229 00:10:41,039 --> 00:10:45,759 up to 300 feet in clear color in the dark. 230 00:10:46,399 --> 00:10:47,120 Damn. 231 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,360 So basically now like the lights just got flipped on. 232 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:51,919 Oh, shit. 233 00:10:51,919 --> 00:10:52,319 Cool. 234 00:10:52,319 --> 00:10:53,360 Wow, that's very cool. 235 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,200 You should have warned his penance. 236 00:10:55,759 --> 00:10:57,120 It's awfully sudden. 237 00:10:57,919 --> 00:10:59,600 I told you I could do something about this. 238 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,879 Yeah, look at these claw marks on the wall. 239 00:11:02,879 --> 00:11:03,360 I don't- 240 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:07,759 That's not a spell I've seen. 241 00:11:07,759 --> 00:11:08,399 What is that? 242 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:09,759 What did you do? 243 00:11:09,759 --> 00:11:14,000 Oh, that's just a little blessing from my goddess. 244 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:15,840 So that's the power of divine magic. 245 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:17,120 Oh, very interesting. 246 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:18,320 Very interesting indeed. 247 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:18,820 Okay. 248 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:23,200 It's honestly kind of surprising that you guys can manage to not have this 249 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:24,560 and still function. 250 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,840 But for the next hour, you can see like I see 251 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,240 and hopefully that will aid us in this little journey. 252 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:31,760 I would say so. 253 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,480 So with that in mind, Bondin. 254 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:35,920 Yes. 255 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:37,440 I need to be able to watch your back. 256 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:38,560 Yes. 257 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,920 Do you want to put a leash on me? 258 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:42,420 Okay. 259 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:43,840 Yes. 260 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,520 Do you want to attach a leash to my backpack when I go to the grocery store? 261 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:48,160 Sure. 262 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:48,880 With my mom. 263 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:49,380 Yeah. 264 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,320 Let me tie that onto you. 265 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,240 We can pull you back if you get into true trouble. 266 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,680 I'm going to be your guard here. 267 00:11:57,680 --> 00:12:01,600 You're going to be going down first because you're the quietest and the smallest. 268 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:02,960 Okay. 269 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:03,600 It's going to be great. 270 00:12:04,159 --> 00:12:04,659 Okay. 271 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:06,879 And I have rope in my backpack. 272 00:12:06,879 --> 00:12:09,919 So I'm going to tie it on. 273 00:12:09,919 --> 00:12:10,399 Okay. 274 00:12:10,399 --> 00:12:11,200 And this is your end. 275 00:12:11,759 --> 00:12:12,080 Okay. 276 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,720 We harness the boy up with some rope 277 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,759 and then I'm just going to hold one end to it and be like, you've got this kid. 278 00:12:17,759 --> 00:12:18,259 Okay. 279 00:12:20,399 --> 00:12:21,919 Can I go down the ladder now? 280 00:12:21,919 --> 00:12:22,639 Absolutely. 281 00:12:22,639 --> 00:12:23,139 Yeah. 282 00:12:23,519 --> 00:12:24,019 Okay. 283 00:12:24,560 --> 00:12:26,639 I start climbing down the ladder. 284 00:12:26,639 --> 00:12:27,139 Okay. 285 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:32,399 Bondin's going first, followed by Penance, I assume. 286 00:12:32,399 --> 00:12:35,200 Because you've got the leash on Bondin. 287 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:35,680 Mm-hmm. 288 00:12:35,680 --> 00:12:36,399 I'll go second. 289 00:12:36,399 --> 00:12:36,879 Sure. 290 00:12:36,879 --> 00:12:37,200 Great. 291 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:38,240 Great, great, great. 292 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:39,440 Who's following behind? 293 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,519 If he's not immediately eaten, I will follow. 294 00:12:41,519 --> 00:12:41,919 Roger that. 295 00:12:41,919 --> 00:12:44,639 How long is the leash that is tied to Bondin? 296 00:12:44,639 --> 00:12:45,440 I'll go third. 297 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:46,399 Desire to go through. 298 00:12:46,399 --> 00:12:46,879 Okay. 299 00:12:46,879 --> 00:12:53,279 So it is the standard rope in my backpack, which is 50 feet. 300 00:12:54,399 --> 00:12:58,560 So I can climb down 50 feet and look around for y'all. 301 00:12:58,560 --> 00:13:03,680 Should I roll perception or acrobatics for climbing down a ladder? 302 00:13:03,680 --> 00:13:05,360 You can climb down the ladder, no problem. 303 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,480 I would roll stealth, though, to see how quiet you're being. 304 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:10,740 Okay. 305 00:13:11,919 --> 00:13:12,419 10. 306 00:13:13,039 --> 00:13:13,759 That's with a plus too. 307 00:13:13,759 --> 00:13:14,720 This is going to go great. 308 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:15,220 Yeah. 309 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:16,960 This is going to go so great. 310 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:17,440 This is going to be so great. 311 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:22,720 So you're going to go, Penance, are you going to allow Bondin to go the full 50 feet? 312 00:13:23,680 --> 00:13:24,180 Yep. 313 00:13:24,180 --> 00:13:24,680 Great. 314 00:13:24,680 --> 00:13:25,180 Okay. 315 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:26,960 Cool. 316 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:27,460 Yep. 317 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,440 Unless I see something about to happen, I'll pull him back at that point. 318 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,639 But this is my old canary in our coal mine here. 319 00:13:35,279 --> 00:13:36,639 Send the boy down. 320 00:13:36,639 --> 00:13:37,139 Amazing. 321 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,360 Okay, so Bondin, you're going to go down. 322 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:40,800 I'm pink and shiny like a worm. 323 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:44,639 Bondin, you're going to go down. 324 00:13:45,519 --> 00:13:46,879 Penance, you're going to see them. 325 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:51,440 They, you know, maybe continuously look back up at you and back down. 326 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:56,560 And once you kind of reach the edge of that rope, there's still a ladder below them. 327 00:13:56,560 --> 00:14:01,760 So you would all have to, or at least you would have to proceed down the ladder for Bondin 328 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:03,520 to be able to reach the next floor. 329 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,240 Can I see the bottom of the ladder? 330 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:12,320 Yes, there's probably about another 25 to 30 feet below you before you'd be able to see out. 331 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:14,400 Okay, but I can see the bottom. 332 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:14,960 Yes. 333 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:15,460 Yeah. 334 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:17,520 And there's nothing moving down there? 335 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:18,880 Doesn't appear to be, no. 336 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:19,680 Okay. 337 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,080 I continue on with Penance behind me. 338 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,120 Yeah, I'll go the whatever distance. 339 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:30,000 I'll start descending a little bit down to make sure that the rope can keep going. 340 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:30,560 He can keep going. 341 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:31,060 Sounds good. 342 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,920 Okay, so yeah, Bondin, you make it down. 343 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,280 Penance behind. 344 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,520 Is everybody else hopping onto the ladder? 345 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:38,880 Are you going to wait for a call? 346 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,240 Oh no, I'll hop onto the ladder. 347 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,400 Yeah, I'll hop on. 348 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:43,920 They're blocking your exit, Penance. 349 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:44,720 I'm just saying. 350 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,560 I feel like that's against the rules. 351 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:52,400 I don't remember which module, but don't you want them to like, you know, make sure for safety 352 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:52,900 reasons? 353 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:55,040 It'll be fine. 354 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:55,840 It'll be fine. 355 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:56,320 Don't worry. 356 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,680 They're not, they're not one of them works in as a bureaucrat. 357 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:04,880 You shouldn't say it's a dirty thing. 358 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,640 Well, apparently not very stealthy, so you should be able to hear me up the ladder. 359 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,480 I was going to say this conversation is happening over 50 feet. 360 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,680 So like, if I can hear you, everyone can hear you. 361 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,840 It's a stage whisper more than anything. 362 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,279 With a stealth of 10. 363 00:15:21,279 --> 00:15:27,120 So I hit the bottom of the, so I get to the bottom of the ladder and I jump off 364 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:28,159 and I look around. 365 00:15:28,159 --> 00:15:29,039 Yeah, you look around. 366 00:15:29,039 --> 00:15:31,360 So you have one direction to look. 367 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:35,360 You can look down the cavern, similar to the one that you just exited up above. 368 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:41,200 At the end of that cavern, which you can't tell the exact distance, but it's 369 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,320 give or take 75 to 100 feet down. 370 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:53,680 It looks like it branches off and rounds a corner, but you see a very dim glowing light 371 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,600 from down at the end of this corridor. 372 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,600 Can I roll? 373 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:01,759 I don't know if that's insight. 374 00:16:01,759 --> 00:16:04,160 Like I want to know what color the light is and like. 375 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,840 Yeah, it looks bluish and purplish. 376 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:09,440 Okay, pennants. 377 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,320 Okay, so I'm here at the bottom. 378 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,080 I'm here at the bottom and there's a long, there's a long hallway. 379 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:20,240 And then there's a choice that we're going to have to make because there's two branches 380 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,800 to this path and there's a blue and purple light. 381 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:23,440 What do I do? 382 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:25,360 This wasn't in your book. 383 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,120 Wait for the rest of us. 384 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,360 Well, for the rest of us, I'm assumed climb down too. 385 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:31,840 As long as you don't see anything down there. 386 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,440 So that's moving. 387 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:34,160 Nothing's moving. 388 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,080 When eventually we reach the bottom, I will in a sort of 389 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:42,960 soto voice hushed say now what's important with monster hunting is that you

00:21:10,880 Really be filled with that disdain. 510 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:15,440 And you're not really going to get why Kyle's character is having the effect. 511 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:19,840 He is on Amy's character if you haven't listened to previous seasons. 512 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,600 So please listen to them all. 513 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,840 They're very fun and quite silly. 514

blue-purple light. 540 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:25,440 And as you get down to the end there, so everybody else is 50 feet back still, I presume. 541 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,400 That's why I'm yelling left or right, left or right, left or right. 542 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:29,680 Which way do we want to go, guys? 543 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:32,559 What do you see? 544 00:22:33,039 --> 00:22:33,839
