00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,719
Looking for Dumbgeons and Dragons? Well, you found the right place. We'll begin in a moment.

2
00:00:06,879 --> 00:00:12,320
We see a picture of this quaint little home with a white picket fence sitting in the

3
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:19,600
middle of an open field. That house begins to shake back and forth and sound emanates from

4
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:26,400
it and windows smash. We see fire pouring out of those windows. Inside we see Bonwyn rushing

5
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:33,120
room to room lighting anything she can on fire as Bizard walks down the seemingly endless hallway

6
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:39,520
being chased or at least slowly cornered by more and more of these instrument monsters that

7
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:46,719
have come to life. Upstairs Kavlaran you've knocked down Alydin's parents and Alydin you

8
00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:53,120
sit up in bed and throw your legs over and go to stand up and you stumble and fall forward.

9
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:58,400
Kavlaran make a dexterity saving throw please or no not a saving throw because you're not in

10
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:05,600
danger. Make an athletics or make a don't let the child hit the floor. Gotcha.

11
00:01:06,719 --> 00:01:14,400
Operation continue saving Alydin. She didn't even expect to see me here.

12
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:20,240
Right and then she totally wasn't even stoked when I busted in the door like what the fuck.

13
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:27,919
Oak would have been so happy to see me. Maybe it's Kavlaran the heroic, Kavlaran the magnanimous,

14
00:01:27,919 --> 00:01:32,399
like now it's a whole different thing. He's saving people. Kavlaran the ever giving.

15

throughout your stay in this ethereal home um but you feel like walking is difficult

29

at this moment like you're trouble grasping at things I think I'm as you go no you go ahead

30
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:18,560
uh I was gonna ask like Russ uh is there anything like is Alydin saying anything like mumbling and

31
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:28,480
coherently or just quiet or will Amy take it away Amy is Amy is still in full control she

32
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:34,240
just is losing yeah so yeah sorry I think I'm gonna just need a little help or like a sec

33
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:40,000
I don't I don't want to stay can I can you help me get it I need to get out yeah we have to get

34
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:47,200
out of here 100 kid uh let's get out let's do it desperate to know if Alydin lets that kid

35
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:51,600
pass because she's in a weakened state or points it she does she lets it go

36
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:58,879
oh wow okay it's not the time it's not just maybe not but I'm filing it away yeah

37
00:03:59,039 --> 00:04:06,159
you only get so many thank you something calves not used to a big check mark for the knocking

38
00:04:06,159 --> 00:04:12,319
down the parents and rescuing but like a small negative for the kid yeah Alydin will remember

39
00:04:12,319 --> 00:04:20,639
this you're on the list condescending twice on the third time it doesn't go over well for

40
00:04:20,639 --> 00:04:26,879
anybody okay um and you russ you mentioned I saw a glint and I thought it was in music box

41
00:04:26,879 --> 00:04:32,719
or did I just fill in the the background yeah so uh just to reset that part of the scene so on

42
00:04:32,719 --> 00:04:37,600
the dresser there is a music box that is continually playing it has been for as

43
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,920
long as you've been in the space um below the dresser it looks like there's a broken

44
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:48,319
floorboard and something metallic caught your eye underneath this floorboard okay and that's

45
00:04:48,319 --> 00:04:54,959
below the dresser yeah like yeah it's like the the leg of the dresser is like on top of it

46
00:04:54,959 --> 00:05:01,519
a little bit like kind of leaning in a little bit yeah all right um as I as I catch Alydin

47
00:05:01,519 --> 00:05:06,639
and say that we should get out of there um I take a bit of a closer look at the

48
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:12,959
parental figures I guess do their music boxes like kind of match the one that's on the

49
00:05:12,959 --> 00:05:20,240
dresser like their music box heads uh like design wise just if they have like any

50
00:05:21,199 --> 00:05:28,879
yeah um yes there are definite similarities like in the style of of wood that appears to be

51
00:05:28,879 --> 00:05:36,400
making up whatever the head structure is um a lot of the engravings and carvings along the

52
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:43,759
side appear very similar to the smaller box and they both have the same spinning uh we say

53
00:05:43,759 --> 00:05:48,400
ballerina yeah we both have the same spinning ballerina and as you've knocked them down

54
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:56,160
all three do have the same winding mechanism just obviously larger in scale okay um as I see

55
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:02,320
this on the two I knocked down and on the dresser I like with my other free arm that hasn't caught

56
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:08,240
Alydin I want to like pull the dresser over and like throw it to the floor sort of thing

57
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:15,600
okay uh make a strength check please you're fucking trashing my room absolutely

58
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:22,640
actually even though Alydin spent all the day before just just trashing the room just

59
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:28,960
trying you can't be a touring musician so he's well familiar with destroying hotel rooms thank

60
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:35,920
you yeah uh oh and you said strength yes please 16 okay uh yeah you pull Alydin out

61
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:42,400
of the way and throw this down um which um drawers start to to pour out but yeah

62
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:47,120
crashes down to the ground that leaving that floorboard open if that's what you were

63
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:51,440
yeah I was kind of wondering if the floorboard like springs open at all like it was holding it

64
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:57,040
down or kind of what's going on yeah like pulling it forward like it even cracks into

65
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:02,800
the floorboard more and then the leg itself pulls it up uh like splintering the floorboard

66
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:07,680
which does appear secured closer to the wall um but yeah splinters it open so that you can

67
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:16,319
see further inside um and it looks like there is a how musical is how um would he know what a

68
00:07:16,319 --> 00:07:20,240
tuning fork is or do you want me to describe it as Kavlaran would see it if he doesn't know

69
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:25,280
what a tuning fork uh Kavlaran thinks it's like a fancy hot dog roaster yes exactly

70
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,720
just a really short one yeah just like a really small one yeah like a travel size yeah

71
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:35,600
so yeah the small and he's gonna grab it okay what are you doing I think like this

72
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,760
caught my eye I think we should take it well then I'm like you know I like shiny things I'm taking

73
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:45,360
I kind of lean that awkward thing where he's holding me up by my arm but I'm reaching in

74
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:51,920
the opposite direction like like an a-hole um and I want to pick up which I'm assuming the music

75
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:58,160
box that fell off of the dresser didn't break no no of course it didn't I want it landed

76
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:04,080
actually pristine on the bed which was just equidistant from where the dresser had fallen

77
00:08:04,639 --> 00:08:07,519
it is made of wood there's a lot of fire in this house yeah I'm

78
00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:13,759
I assume I can smell that smoke yeah yeah I think we need to take this stairs yeah

79
00:08:15,279 --> 00:08:22,079
uh okay you grab the music box you grab the tuning fork um do you want to kill them before

80
00:08:22,079 --> 00:08:29,039
we go I just wasn't expecting that yes I don't know I think we should just go

81
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,800
oh okay

82
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:38,639
disappointing fine another strike

83
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:51,519
jump back into initiative order downstairs bizarre this hallway is not ending and now everything

84
00:08:51,519 --> 00:08:58,000
that was in the hallway so all of the violins the trumpets um the cello is still trying to

85
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:03,600
track down Bonwyn so yeah the trumpets and the violins are like climbing the walls and the

86
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:10,000
floors making their way towards you you still have mage hand holding your tuning fork down

87
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:15,039
closer to the door my my mage hand's just gonna move to me and I'm gonna take possession of

88
00:09:15,039 --> 00:09:21,039
the actual tuning fork uh and before striking it or I'm not gonna strike it this time how

89
00:09:21,039 --> 00:09:25,840
many how many violins are there I think we said three there are three violins

90
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:33,200
perfect then I am going to uh I'm going to take my blade and I'm actually gonna like

91
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:38,800
run the uh run the tuning fork along the edge of it creating a spark and using that to launch

92
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:46,560
scorching rays cool and uh so I'm gonna do a do a ray at each each one okay love it well

93
00:09:46,560 --> 00:09:54,080
roll that that's a 12 to hit on the first one 24 on the second and 15 on the third

94
00:09:55,040 --> 00:10:02,879
all three of those hit beautiful the first one takes 10 damage second one takes

95
00:10:03,759 --> 00:10:09,360
eight damage and the third one takes nine damage that seems like a lot that does seem

96
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:18,480
like a lot of damage yeah scorching rays go um and like um all three of these violins as they

97
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:26,320
are their strings are moving them down the hall like they light on fire and like continue

98
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:30,800
to move their way down the hall towards you that was my action I still have blades ongoing

99
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:38,240
uh I am going to I'm gonna stand my ground okay yeah I'm gonna stand my ground and wait

100
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:43,200
right where I am okay Bonwyn you're in the dining room uh the cello is making its way

101
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:48,879
down to this this doorway that you are in there are no more egresses you've reached like the end

102
00:10:48,879 --> 00:10:54,960
of end of the house as far as you're concerned um so dining room table there are three chairs

103
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:03,280
looks like it was set for a another set for a meal um there's a sideboard in this room a

104
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:10,320
window outside which as you look out it is um like pitch black night like you can see the

105
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:18,000
faintest wavings in the trees um and as you look into those trees you see the moonlight

106
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:23,280
glint off of the mannequin children that are all lined up along the tree line what about

107
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:30,160
those guys they're made of wood too oh what have I done stay there you turn back and face

108
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:39,120
the cello and um the table is set make and what are you better at investigation or perception

109
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:45,919
oh probably neither let's see um investigate oh definitely investigation okay roll investigation

110
00:11:45,919 --> 00:11:52,000
please roll perception something looks off 23 okay yeah something looks off and you're

111
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,879
looking and there's there's perfect table setting for two of two of the three settings

112
00:11:56,879 --> 00:12:01,919
the final one where there should be a fork you see a tuning fork which I think you know

113
00:12:01,919 --> 00:12:06,000
in asking cav that question valid but Bonwyn would know because you could have made them

114
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:11,360
could have made them yeah I get a lot of magazines with all kinds of different

115
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,519
metal working in it so I've seen lots of different projects yeah so you see where

116
00:12:15,519 --> 00:12:20,480
on this third spot there is a tuning fork where the fork would be normally placed

117
00:12:21,519 --> 00:12:26,159
cool and cello straight out the door in front of you kitchen on fire

118
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:32,960
well my main plan was light everything on fire and I've done that I came here to

119
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:39,280
save Alydin and light some fires and I haven't found Alydin so you also would have heard

120
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:43,280
bizarre's first attempt at the tuning fork down from the front entry like

121
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:47,360
well that's what I was gonna say like I have been presented with a new thing to do

122
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:54,560
so I think I would I would um do that and maybe just uh like I said I have that that

123
00:12:54,560 --> 00:13:00,000
little hammer so I would take it out and like you know try and get get a good ring off

124
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:05,200
that tuning fork all right off a piece of metal so you run you run over rush over to the table

125
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:10,879
not run it's not a big room so you rush over to it grab it and and make it ring make an

126
00:13:10,879 --> 00:13:21,679
arcana or performance check please 10 same better than what I did same as I had previously

127
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:28,320
described for bizarre so you strike it and this note rings out and it's like visually like

128
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:35,760
there is a um expansion of energy that comes out from this which is unlike anything you've

129
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:42,000
ever seen look at all the house around you none of this is normal everything is yeah it

130
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:47,040
moves out into the space and and as it moves out into the space like you see the cello be

131
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:53,360
pushed back and against the wall and then it sucks back into the tuning fork and finishes

132
00:13:53,360 --> 00:14:03,919
its ring how far is the cello from me uh and it's like between me and the door obviously

133
00:14:03,919 --> 00:14:07,759
because it followed me in there yeah it was coming into the door so like you pushed it

134
00:14:07,759 --> 00:14:13,919
back out into the hallway so um let's say like 15 15 feet because this is okay so it's always

135
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:21,600
space yeah what would on when do everything's on fire she tried the tuning fork

136
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:32,160
she's trying to see like what else have I got here oh how about this guys it's a classic oh

137
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:39,120
it's a classic oh the cello's back in the hallway yeah so you're alone in this space really

138
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:45,360
the only person can you just duck down when the cello comes and looks back in it's going to be

139
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:51,679
like oh she's not here oh yeah that's actually hilarious i'm going to open the window okay

140
00:14:51,679 --> 00:14:59,360
and then i'm gonna i'm gonna duck under the uh the table i don't know how this thing sees

141
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:05,759
if it just senses me i don't know sure but um for now because in case it like wanders away

142
00:15:05,759 --> 00:15:09,679
i don't need to engage with it i might just be able to like sneak out behind it

143
00:15:09,679 --> 00:15:16,559
i don't know what it's gonna do it's fine it's fine i got you yeah okay so cello knocked back

144
00:15:16,559 --> 00:15:25,200
out you're going to go slide open the window uh make a stealth roll stealth check i am actually

145
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:30,319
good at that so that's a 19 okay cool so you are hiding under the table the table has

146
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:37,920
a tablecloth on it um so yeah it provides you a little extra cover but that is a good roll so

147
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:42,879
we'll check in when the cello gets back around and that's where you are holding for now

148
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:49,680
yeah i think so because i definitely like clearly saw something happen with the tuning fork so i'm

149
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:57,520
just gonna try that again got it unless something else crazy happens which seems likely

150
00:15:57,519 --> 00:16:00,720
some weird weird shit happening okay weird shit going on

151
00:16:03,279 --> 00:16:05,519
welcome to the middle everybody thanks for being here

152
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:16,720
hey this banjo man he's he's kind of scary he's definitely a thing i don't like him i don't you

153
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:24,079
know what amy i don't like him either i don't say that a lot no but i do not like him or

154
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:31,280
this song that i i literally just imagine poor Alydin has been hearing the same like

155
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:38,960
how am i not taking psychic damage right how am i not just bat shit crazy like it would

156
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:43,440
i guess you would eventually just tune it out probably because that's what we do as humans but

157
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:48,960
my goodness well and as a child though repetition is something that that's right you know see i'm

158
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:53,920
more into early banjo man this new stuff yeah that's fair before he signed to that major

the episode and we'll talk to you very very soon love you bye love you bye trumpets turn

176
00:18:35,279 --> 00:18:40,240
they are have stopped moving the trumpets they're close enough so they are going to

177
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:46,799
let out that same ear-splitting swell and burst so can i get a constitution saving throw from you

178
00:18:46,799 --> 00:19:00,799
bizarre this is a problem no no violins that's a five yes okay in a 30-foot cone this swell and

179
00:19:00,799 --> 00:19:08,480
burst of compressed air flings itself towards you uh you're going to be shot backwards 10

180
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:16,640
feet and take four thunder damage as you are knocked back uh make a dexterity saving throw

181
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:23,440
to avoid being knocked prone all right that's a 21 okay so yeah you managed to stand your

182
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:29,920
ground but yeah you have been moved back 10 feet the violins that are on the walls also

183
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:37,039
had to save against this because it covered everything the fire that you lit extinguishes

184
00:19:37,039 --> 00:19:42,159
on them but they are tumbled forward and two of them break apart um and you see their their

185
00:19:42,159 --> 00:19:48,000
strings trying to like reach for the parts and pull themselves back together um one the final

186
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:55,279
one is like crawling now on the ground towards you piano stuck in piano room uh we're not

187
00:19:55,279 --> 00:20:01,200
going to worry about that uh however it is the cello's turn piano had to be built and

188
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:05,759
airlifted into that room yeah i think the piano was assembled in that room right like how

189
00:20:05,759 --> 00:20:13,920
wide is the door yeah the cello moving itself back into the room um you hear it like stomping

190
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:18,799
it's on its foot and like the strings are like holding it's propping itself up as

191
00:20:18,799 --> 00:20:26,160
it moves into the space and over to the window it's going to turn back into the room

192
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:33,120
and let out a deep vibrating note all creatures within 30 feet that's you Bonwyn must make a

193
00:20:33,120 --> 00:20:40,080
wisdom saving throw but with advantage right because my because my earplugs nice with advantage

194
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:48,080
uh sorry you said wisdom wisdom yeah okay that one was a 15 and that one was also a 15

195
00:20:48,159 --> 00:20:56,799
so it's a 15 so you are under this table you've got the the tuning fork in hand um the cello lets

196
00:20:56,799 --> 00:21:04,639
out this deep vibrating note that shakes the bones in your body and even though you have your

197
00:21:04,639 --> 00:21:12,319
your ears plugged like you feel this what can only be described as like a paralyzing

198
00:21:12,319 --> 00:21:19,359
nostalgia come over you and you feel a sense of dread for a moment you see visions flash quickly

199
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:25,679
of childhood homes and loved ones and all these places where you feel safe and then they all

200
00:21:25,679 --> 00:21:33,919
crumble splintered into wood and churning darkness but you saved so all of that disappears

201
00:21:33,919 --> 00:21:41,759
as you come back to the space Alydin upstairs Kavlaran has you by the arm but in like a nice

202
00:21:41,759 --> 00:21:47,599
way in a supportive way yeah yeah of course you've got the two parents behind you door in front of

203
00:21:47,599 --> 00:21:52,720
you chaos sounds like it's coming from downstairs did you guys find cedric

204
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:56,640
which one was cedric again

205
00:22:00,559 --> 00:22:06,079
i mean you gotta be true to character right no i i don't know i i don't have all you kids

206
00:22:06,079 --> 00:22:14,319
look the same i'm sorry i'm just leaning into it now i love this like awkward uncle

207
00:22:15,519 --> 00:22:22,799
never been around kids i don't really know how to act around kids i love that it's so good

208
00:22:24,079 --> 00:22:31,119
that's awesome Alydin kind of gives him one of like these what like look at him just like

209
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:39,280
cedric has a very unique appearance you don't yeah i don't think tom was actually

210
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:48,960
face blindness so it's totally fun yeah no i love it i love it you're never gonna find gorsh

211
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:55,280
again no gorsh was he doesn't have but blindness but he doesn't he has face blindness he

212
00:22:55,279 --> 00:23:00,079
remembers those cheeks and he would recognize that tight peach yeah all right

213
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:11,519
whoa this is a scary place sorry nope if i took one thing away from the business

214
00:23:11,519 --> 00:23:20,799
yeah it was more gorsh more gorsh gorsh spin-off episodes yeah um okay so she's just gonna

215
00:23:20,799 --> 00:23:28,480
blow right past that and we'll also sorry we'll also bump Kavlaran up to yours because you guys

216
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:32,879
are kind of together so it doesn't really make sense to have you do something but he's supporting

217
00:23:32,879 --> 00:23:40,960
you so two of you collectively can kind of figure out what you're gonna do cool who who's

218
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:48,799
here uh we uh bazaar's here Bonwyn's here i'm here you're here and we all gotta go she like

219
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:57,279
like brightens up significantly to hear that somebody else yeah anybody anybody am i

220
00:23:57,279 --> 00:24:00,799
preferred anyone else could have said fucking ignatius at this point

221
00:24:02,079 --> 00:24:09,440
i mean um but yeah she definitely brightens up hearing that um bazaar and Bonwyn like she's

222
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:15,839
you know like yeah these two don't know each other that well like this is what being cared

223
00:24:15,839 --> 00:24:23,039
for looks looks like so okay we have to leave because this place and it'll it'll put you to

224
00:24:23,039 --> 00:24:35,919
sleep and the and nothing is right and i i can't leave you can't leave not yet okay but maybe

225
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,000
maybe

226
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:46,400
something burning oh yeah that's probably uh yeah well um yeah we we need to go is the

227
00:24:47,039 --> 00:24:54,400
the short story there right she she nods and is like okay yeah okay all right what's the best

228
00:24:54,400 --> 00:25:02,160
way out of this place she she looks back at cav and is like front door i only came in i've

229
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:08,720
never gone out okay cool we'll try the front door let me start hustling towards that door russ

230
00:25:09,360 --> 00:25:14,240
okay so you're gonna go you're gonna make your way down the stairs you can make it to the bottom

231
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:19,840
of the stairs and part way down the hallway which is back towards the door as you get down

232
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:24,080
there Alydin you're now seeing a lot of this for the first time uh Kavlaran more things

233
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:30,400
are on fire um naturally be weird of less i mean i would hope more things were on fire

234
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:35,040
yeah as you get to the base of the stairs looking down to your right you see these

235
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:41,920
instrument creatures these trumpets like moving along the ground vile one single violin moving

236
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:49,920
down but also the shadowy outline of who you recognize as bizarre who is an inexplicably

237
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:59,360
long way away from you in this space you see into the dining room um make a perception

238
00:25:59,360 --> 00:26:05,760
check you see me i was gonna see with my tuning fork and my lit torch under the table

239
00:26:07,120 --> 00:26:16,640
cello didn't see me he just guessed 17 and i've got a plus zero okay i was uh 15 after uh after

240
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:21,280
bonus all right so neither of you see Bonwyn because you rolled a 19 i believe yeah yeah but

241
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:27,280
you look into the room and you see this cello figure um on the other side of the room and an

242
00:26:27,279 --> 00:26:34,000
open window um the kitchen's on fire the dining room's on fire um you're halfway down the hallway

243
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:38,960
but that's as far as you can get this turn is there anything else you want to do uh well i

244
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:49,839
think at seeing bizarre uh Alydin would go bizarre good good she's safe run just fucking

245
00:26:49,839 --> 00:26:54,639
run wait was that you with the tuning fork you mean this hot dog roaster

246
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,920
that's hilarious but not right now there's a time and a place

247
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:08,399
and now i'm hungry damn it it's actually bazaar's turn now so that

248
00:27:08,399 --> 00:27:17,200
works out we can just flow into that uh yeah seeing Alydin like i i'm very very angry and

249
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:21,920
upset in this like encounter like i really want to find this fucking this dude but he

250
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:29,600
disappeared so like bazaar's pissed in his own way so like he is going to push forward just

251
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:34,400
walking right past that poor little violin on the ground not even getting it the time of day

252
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:41,200
and he is going to push towards that uh that mess of trumpets and other bells and give two

253
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:48,960
attacks to it and then move past it okay like just going in yeah brutal attacks love it

254
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:56,799
see that is an eight on the first one and a 20 unnatural on the second and the dirty 20 will

255
00:27:56,799 --> 00:28:05,200
hit yep dope all right and that's going to be seven slashing damage cut it up yeah your blade

256
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:10,480
cuts down through them lets out this muted horn sound as it's knocked against the wall

257
00:28:11,279 --> 00:28:15,039
the other one and as you continue to move past it because i assume you're going to

258
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:22,720
use your full movement yep yep it doesn't really have like a effect it yeah no that's not going to

259
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:32,000
work uh so yeah you you're able to insult you insult you hey fucker that's what i imagine

260
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:37,359
when you're like slashed at the trumpet that's totally all i was picturing too

261
00:28:40,319 --> 00:28:42,240
all right so there's going to be a lot of trumpet falls

262
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:50,880
uh and you can make your way um i mean you walk what feels like 30 feet but you've been backing

263
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:56,160
up for some time but by the time that you reach that distance um you find yourself at the base

264
00:28:56,160 --> 00:29:01,680
of the stairs and unless there's anything you can do it's Bonwyn's turn since cav showed

265
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:06,400
showed me his i'm gonna show him mine and be like i have a tuning fork too found one as

266
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:12,560
well Bonwyn from under the table you see um Kavlarne and Alydin rush down the stairs that was

267
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:19,519
going to be my first question was if i saw them amazing cello still in the door uh cello moved

268
00:29:19,519 --> 00:29:26,000
behind towards the window so yeah you've got a clear shot to the door like hey where did she

269
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:31,280
go where did she go i don't know why i did a violin thing just so you guys could see it

270
00:29:31,279 --> 00:29:35,119
anyway you're it's a very tall person playing it it's right

271
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:46,240
um i am just gonna like book it for my friends like Alydin i'm so happy that she's there and

272
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:53,599
we found her and she appears to be like whole and i'm probably just gonna run up and hug her

273
00:29:53,600 --> 00:30:01,600
here i'm sorry i do not ask but i'm just so happy to see her i'm into it and then i will

274
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:08,720
try to hit that tuning fork again so you're all four of you are back together now

275
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:13,200
gangs all together again you're you pull out your tuning fork like let's

276
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:20,560
like oh yeah so we all have them out now in our hands so let wind yes i know that's what

277
00:30:20,559 --> 00:30:26,240
i was gonna say like this is an initiative order but can we like yeah yeah yeah kyle tip to tip

278
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:33,039
with the tuning fork cheers like uh so yeah you rush out uh you've got your tuning fork

279
00:30:33,039 --> 00:30:37,759
the trumpets of what's left of the trumpets have turned around the violins are piecing

280
00:30:37,759 --> 00:30:44,079
themselves back together i drop my burning torch on them they run past cello is like

281
00:30:44,079 --> 00:30:48,879
getting ready to make another one of these blasts and you hear the stomp of the piano

282
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:54,640
in the other room as it's on fire trying to just make its way out the poor fucking piano

283
00:30:54,640 --> 00:31:01,040
god it's just trapped in there i know i can't think about it too much or i'll feel guilty

284
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:08,160
about this evil piano that i lit on fire but it's crazy the banjo man made me evil i just

285
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:13,680
know this is really good pay that's what you see around you that's what's happening around you

286
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:18,080
three of you have these tuning forks out what are you gonna do with those

287
00:31:18,079 --> 00:31:23,119
i didn't work the first time mine didn't work either but i probably yeah i think that i have

288
00:31:23,119 --> 00:31:27,839

295
00:32:10,799 --> 00:32:18,639
still hovering on the monsters yeah you strike each of these three tuning forks and the energy

296
00:32:18,639 --> 00:32:27,359
wave amplifies and rings out and you you feel the entire house shaking this wave passes by

297
00:32:27,359 --> 00:32:33,839
each of these monsters that begin to vibrate and fall apart and collapse and just become

298
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:40,480
lifeless instruments as this music fades into a soft melancholic tune

299
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:50,000
as the final instrument shatters or falls silent you hear the front door burst open

300
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:56,320
and stumbling in is the banjo man as he staggers in his fingers twitching as if

301
00:32:56,320 --> 00:33:02,880
struggling to keep playing and he says no no no no the song's not over yet his voice cracks

302
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:11,440
almost pleading he screams out in frustration gripping his head as the discordant magic

303
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:19,920
begins to fall apart the clearing that you are in begins to tremble as the banjo man's hold

304
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:28,800
on this dreamlike realm begin to weaken a window of glowing golden light bursts

305
00:33:28,799 --> 00:33:34,559
open behind you on the opposite side of the banjo man in the space between worlds

306
00:33:36,079 --> 00:33:40,399
Alydin you're the first one to see it because of how we're all kind of standing here

307
00:33:41,519 --> 00:33:48,159
everything around you at this point everything around everybody begins to disappear the house

308
00:33:48,159 --> 00:33:57,440
disappears the parents the illusions all gone and Alydin as you look back and see the banjo

309
00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:05,360
man for the first time yet have this odd recognition of him all of you see his eyes

310
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:12,960
flicker with something unreadable is it regret rage perhaps despair the silmarillion the

311
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:23,840
silmarillion and then his bones begin to crack his arms begin to extend his strumming on the

312
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:33,600
banjo becomes fractured and this these notes begin to vibrate and move and in this new form

313
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:42,079
with his monstrously long limbs and sunken in eyes and jagged sharp teeth wings begin to

314
00:34:42,079 --> 00:34:49,039
sprout from his back he digs into the ground beneath him and charges towards you pushing you

315
00:34:49,039 --> 00:34:54,800
towards this glowing window as the energy that surrounds him is moving towards you

316
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:09,279
