Thank you for listening and enjoy. We return to the bluestone minds south of
Uma, and you guys have just encountered a very large dudge creature, a
construct, part clockwork, magical drone, and part ice elemental golumn. It
is embedded within a wall of ice frozen Fred Frostendrede, a huge sort of
fifteen foot tall creature at the moment, isn't really doing anything other than every
few seconds, let's say, every sixth it is expelling this sort of flash
freeze in the area around it, and that area is growing every time he
does it. In response to you, guys, while you are moving around
this icy cavern, attempting to turn off the lights that are on his chest,
he's got four lights that were lit up that had sort of runic properties
that were matching ruins that are on the ground. Now, one thing that
I noticed between sessions that wasn't happening last way, but should have been happening,
is that you can see his health bar on the map for a reason.
When you turn off one of those things, it drops, and use
that meta information however you want. There are three of these things on the
floor. Wait, no, you got the second one right. That was
the last thing you did, right. And then he expelled a sort of
burst of frozen energy as Thrack imbues energy into one of these runs that are
on the floor that correlate with the runs that are on his chest, and
then Thrack and Gilden found themselves frozen in place, their feet caught within the
ice below them. Cyrus and Sea are just on the outside of where this
sort of area of effect is striking. And it is Sea's turn as we
continue this combat, very well, I shall in that case run forty feet
in Sorry on rule twenty. Is there a way of showing you where are
moving and then moving there at the same time? I forget if there was
there is, I can't remember what it is. It's like alt and shift.
What are you doing right now? Might be all one shift as whack
Stephen when we need him? Where is whack Stephen when we need him?
But it's okay, well no, by the next right, So five ten
fifteen forty. So I'm going to move in here, and then I am
going to move a further forty feet around towards this this glyph that I saw
earlier in this direction. So again I'm going to I believe you step of
the wind so I can dash as a bonus action. So five ten fifteen
twenty twenty five thirty thirty five forty, and then I'm going to attack this
guy using my action. This monodrone in front of me. Yes, okay,
So seeing this creature, I'm going to pull out my staff and I'm
going to actually, no, I'm going to use my action to patient defense
because I've just noticed that there are several creatures in front of me, and
so instead I adopt my ready stance again, and I await their approach.
It is the monodrone turns. Let's see here, Yeah, I think,
let me see what. I'm having all sorts of computer problems today, So
bear with me. Every literally going to be every single turn while we tell
you this. M mm hmmmm mmm mmm. How far away you from these
ones? I don't think they're bothered by you. Right now, that one's
going to attack you with a little javelin twelve versus or I see, missus,
and another one is going to come at you with a ranged attack sixteen.
Now you have a patient defense, so that's with disadvantager correct eleven missus?
Okay, two missus. The other two kind of just shift around while
they guard their glyph. I think this one's going to move a little closer
to you, but all the way up and that'd be the end of their
turn. Is Cyrus's turn? What I am going to? Yeah, move
forward to there because I would like to see where I am. Okay,
I am? How is everyone? Okay? Oh, Thrac is not doing
well? Huh. Brag and Jilden were hit by a sort of burst of
cold. Yes, that's right, but children is uh? How is children
looking compared to Thrac? Right? It's like a bear. Yeah, okay,
I am going to past. Oh actually, just let me see sixty
feet for healing word. I think that's definitely enough. Yeah, I'll cast
healing word on for rat m hm hm level two. Oh really okay nine
healing damage or you thrack and then uh, I think that is it?
That's it? Oh? Actually sorry, I will also cast Shield of Faith
on thrack for my bonus action. Okay, Shield of Faith gives you a
plus two bonus to your ac is a little shimmering field appears to surround you,
and that brings us to you. Children's turn. Now, let me
remind myself of what frozen thread is up to here. Yes, you are
just frozen in place the ice around your feet. This isn't a you can
you can do one of two things. You can either destroy it or you
can make a strength check to break through, to break free with an f
not t H Did I get frozen or did I say that? Oh?
I don't know, so I don't think you hit me. You know what
I was going on? I put a little symbol above your head that you
were frozen, but I don't know. I don't know what that was for
because Cyrus also has it and she shouldn't, don't think so I'm not sure
what that is. Actually, did you do a spell? And is that
abuff that was bond which I actually forgot to use when I was trying to
not be frozen. But that's all right, ages ago, way too late,
okay, So inspiration, Yeah no, that's not how inspiration works.
Inspiration I use in real life to get favors. Oh right, that's how
you get inspiration in my campaign, isn't that right? Lea? Mm hmmm,
m m hmm. Really do do now? Save? I'm looking,
I can't remember to say this was it was a deck save. I think
I think you you didn't take any You didn't take damage like you took damage,
but I took half. That correct, that's true. Bear, it
was the bare dexterity saved on the bear. So yes, you just made
it. Yeah. So it's just threat that's frozen, sick, none of
it. None of us can remember anything that happened last week, anything that
happened over twenty four hours ago. It's gone gone broken, it's been recorded
over on your your chest. It's our brains, all right. I am
fair and I will run down here. And it's forty five movements. So
how can I get around this? Ben? I'm trying to figure out if
I can get to this thing or not. I don't think I can though
I think I'm just short. No, you've always been short, good to
know, all right, Well, in that case, I will use a
bonus action to dash and deliberately try and get the opportunity attack from this guy
as I go past and go to the symbol that you will that you will
get. Let's say, in fact, I might do I get too,
because I'm so big I get Do I trap both of these opportunity attacks?
I think you do excellent? I think I think why not? Here we
go two attacks coming in a four and a nineteen. All right, nineteen
deals two piercing damage to you as you run past, and a little sort
of little spike comes out from one of these little monodrones as they strike you
as you go past. Okay, you have a bonus action still if you
want a bonus action, I moved my flaming ball, which is still up
at the other end of the map burner, right, yeah, okay,
okay, round to thrack. Okay, So i've I can either do a
strength saving or I can try to break it. Correct, you can either
try and break the ice around your ankles, or you can make a strength
saving throw. Uh yeah, I think I'll do the stra I think he
just tries to rip his feet out of the ice with his own strength.
I don't think it is a saving throw. I think it's just a strength
check. I'll let you use athletics if one. Okay, excellent, Wow
that is a four. Yeah. Yeah, you do not break free from
this thing. That is your action, do I? Okay? Yeah?
I think I underestimate how like how frozen I actually am, and I think,
oh, just walk my way through this and just grip my feet out
of the ground and instead, if it's all right with you, I'd like
to take something like that's a terrible role. I'd like to take some something
bad here, like do I trip and hit myself in the face. I'm
sprawled on the ground. Yeah, you could probably do that thing. Because
your legs are stuck in place. You just kind of fall backwards really awkwardly.
Okay, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna impose any sort of damage on
you for that, but we can say you're prone. Sure, yep.
I'm laid out on the ground now trying very hard to break myself. I'm
probably stabbing at the ice now with my staff. That's my turn, Okay,
Rosen Fred Now you see now that you're much closer to this creature,
that the the sort of red light that sits within this creature that's sort of
providing it its arcane ability, pulses a few times, and then once more
it attempts to flash freeze you. Let's see, yea or not? Okay,
hold on, you might get lucky. I guess not. Okay,
I don't know what's going on right now. This and there's some sort of
bizarre issue with my computer where just nothing is working. All right there it
is tick that ten minutes ago. Okay, uh, let's see, uh
Brack, cyrus Sea and Jilden. Please make me a dexterarity saving thrown for
those with the emboldening bonds still on that you can add you can roll a
defour an add the number onto saving throw. Thanks. I am not close
enough. I don't think. I'm not going to say, okay, you
have disadvantage track because you're restrained. Oh excellent, okay, oh nice?
Cool? What's there? What's their DC? The DC is fifteen okay,
yeah, and not definitely getting performed by moone oh oh half because I brother
yea, thank yeah, clerk will help you here. Uh okay, Cirrus.
You're all to sixteen? Yeah, hmmm, I wonder Cyrus. Yes,
there is a tingling oh in your on your feet, I think,
okay, and you teleport oh what ah, thirty feet in any direction.
You may choose what any unoccupied space. Okay, I don't want to leave
brack along. I would recommend bankwards because the ice is sort of like pushing
out away from frozen thread. Okay, great, you will take no damage
from this. Just as the ice is pushing outwards and this cold gust of
arcane air rushes outwards, Cyrus just sort of naturally shifts, disappearing from the
spot that she was standing in and appearing just on the edge of where this
gust of cold strikes. You can increase your intelligence or charisma score by one
if you would like. Okay, okay, I think there is a moment
there where we hear tracks thoughts. As he's prone on the ground frozen,
he sees Cyrus disappear and reappear thirty feet away, and it's like a zooming
of just his eyes and confusion on his face. How did she do that?
Does she know how to learn spells too? I've got to ask her.
And then agony as he is blasted with how much damage? Let's find
out who made the check here, who didn't? Seventeen seventeen so you got
eleven? Was seven? Okay, so this was seven y eight cold damage
thirty seven damage to the two that that failed their check. Jilden, you
take half, obviously, thrank you can take half as well because of the
cold, the vest whatever you know, what is it called the yetti cloak?
Yeah? See ya, Okay, all of a sudden, I was
one second I was doing well. The next day I'm not doing so very
well at all. Right, not a drone in front of you is destroyed.
It freezes over, caught in the wave of cold, and is immediately
bliterated. I see, but the one just ahead is not correct. Okay,
then I'm gonna trudge along to this monodrone here and attack it with my
stuff. We're a fifteen to hit. A fifteen will hit ten points of
blooding damage and then swing it again. Well, it already comes around,
you strike it with the staff and it just turns to dust in the air.
Okay, all right, it looks like children's doing all right over there,
So I'm going to well, I'm no longer in bad form, I've
been not that a bare form. Even better, it means you can now
deal with that cliff. There's all that in my mash to plan. So
I'm going to run here thirty five feet to these creatures. Yeah, and
I'm going to use my second attack. Oh crap, which is going to
be nine. Nine is a mess yep. And then the cliff mind a
gliff, I found it. I'm going to go ahead, and I guess
because that was a failure, I'm going to pull out one of my healing
potions that I purchased, and and like that with my bonus action. Okay,
I don't think I was told exactly how much that healing potion healed for
it. Is it just a normal healing potion? Correct? Yes, and
it's two D four plus two I think. Okay, it's going to be
eight. Yeah, So all right, bring me up to a square ten
hit points right now? Okay, yes, just in time to be struck
a couple of times probably. Maybe. Let's see as these these two that
are around you attempt to strike you with their little javelin arms of fourteen and
a nineteen A fourteen misses in nineteen hits. Okay, it's going to deal
two piercing damage to you as you rush between these two monodrones and they just
kind of they're just whirring and striking these little just little daggers really, but
they attempt to cut you with them. One of them finds purchased slightly.
It is then a background to Cyrus's tone. Yeah, can I quickly do
some testing because where I'm standing right now, I cannot actually see you frozen
fed. So if I move fifteen forward and I see him, I'm going
to give him a little bit of light because okay, he have a couple
of little lights on him. Okay, tell me if you can see him
now. I can see him now from where I'm standing. Cool Brack is
not doing souper well, which is not great. Okay, Uh, I
am going to man. This is hard because I welcome to being a cleric.
I do not want to cast spells because otherwise people will die. I
will cast sacred flame at him, okay with five five? Yeah he uh.
You see this sacred flame strike. It breaks some of the chips of
ice off of him, but you get the sense that it does almost nothing
to him. He seems to be sort of covered in an invincible block of
ice right now. Okay, okay, and then I am going to use
my bonus action to cast healing word on track at a moment level two.
I think it's best. Okay, eleven healing or eleven healing. Okay,
that's it for me, Thank you. Okay, brings us around to Gilden.
Okay, we're trying to disrupt this the lyph in front of me.
Yes, you need only use an action to sort of imbue this thing with
arcane energy. You can choose to enhance it or turn it off. Yes,
I choose to turn that glyph off. Yes, and you do so.
The how does Jilden do is because we synthract to it twice? I
think that non childing she well, I lick my finger and run it a
little bit on my cheek and then run it down the edge of my staff
and swirl it around the glyph until the glyph just dissolves in its work.
Yeah, it does so. The well, I guess those of you that
can vaguely see frozen f you see chunks of ice break off from him suddenly
and fall to the ground at the foot of this crature, and underneath you're
now seeing that there's the sort of ice that was covering him and sort of
holding him into the wall is breaking off, and there's this sort of clockwork
drone, just an enormous version of one of these worker drones that you've seen
in much smaller form around sitting underneath this. A few sort of lights glowing
from the arcane properties that are keeping this thing going. But yeah, you
chunk off the You've sort of done a huge amount of damage to the ice
that's sitting on top of him, but there's still some on there holding him
in place. All right. I used my bonus action to move my sphere
and I move back out into the hall, trying to see if I can
spot if Sear is close to the other glyph, or if I can even
see it at all, which I can't be vision is very limited. Right,
Well, there you go, you answered your own question. It's thanks
turn. Okay, I think we see if anyone's looking, we see Drag
a little frustrated and he uh, I think when he got hit with another
wave of frozen stuff, Like he's got one hand now frozen to the ground
as well, and he's just kind of kind of stuck like he is stuck
there, and he's sort of brows and just tries to break through. Like
there's not a lot of thought going on here. He's just going to try
to brooch strength. Yeah, yeah, breaking the ice around your feet,
breaking as you rip your legs upwards and out of the ice and free yourself.
You're I presume that you're no longer prone, but you're also no longer
restrained by the ice. Okay, I'll take the I'll take the prone disadvantage
there, which that's my move speed and half right thinks I move here,
yes, actually, hold on, I have to think about this for a
second. I'm actually going to roll. That's all right, but we have
that's true. I'm just going to do a okay, yeah, that's what
I do, all right in a wisdom save for fifteen for audio listeners.
I don't know what it means to be then, but that's what he did,
okay, And that's the end of ten. Yep, I see my
time. All right. Let's see if you can survive another wave. Exsterity
saving throws please from Cyrus Thrack and jildren A three from Thrac at fourteen from
Children to Fail. So far you'll been you are actually close enough to me,
go ahead and roll with the four. Say that that's true. Yeah,
in fact, you don't even need to roll it. You can for
the fun, but you will make it if you will with the experience.
Too far, good bond, Yeah, I'm too far. I'm serious.
Yeah, you need to be thirty feet away right, Yeah, and I
rolled the three for audio listeners, so it doesn't Okay, Jilden, you
make it serious and thrack. You will take a full and out of this
damage here thirty two freezing cold damage as another pulse of frozen energy. This
sort of shock wave pushes out from frozen Fred here. And also that gets
larger. The radius of this grows larger with every turn. Okay, let's
see I took half that just for burgo any YouTube commenter commenters in the future.
Yeah, let's do that. My health just went down to seven and
not negative or whatever. Yeah, Fielden takes half as well. Serious,
I think you just take the full amount unless you have some ability that against
cold. No, I don't think so. Okay, it is sears turn
after frozen Fred. Okay, I am going to continue to trying to defeat
these creatures down here. I don't think it wise to just try and take
care of the glypt first. So I'll attack the green monoitorne first. Yeah,
or a twenty one hit? Pretty one hits the twelve points of blooding
damage. Yep, you explode it and destroys the monodrome. Right, multi
attack, so I attack the second one. Love that you have multi attack
like a creature. Would I am a creature, not extra attack? Okay?
Yeah? Wait eleven? Sorry an eleven misses. Then I'll use flurry
of blows to punch it instead brunning a key point to use my unarmed punch
it. Okay. That means you can move an extra band in a ship
in Star Wars. I think I'll spin like a year almost thirteen we played
a week ago. We did, but we didn't get these all missed,
all missed, unfortunately for missus. This last monodrame buzzing around your head.
This strange little creature glyss boy, I'm on the glyph. Well, why
haven't anything about it? I'm preoccupied. Does an eighteen hit you? As
he says, I'm preoccupied. This thing stabs you for three piercing damage.
I'm preoccupied. There's a little, tiny, little flying droid creature behind you
with a little spike sticking out of it, and it stuck you in the
bum cheek, I said, not only hoping that our work would appear in
the fan art channel a cartoonish. Okay, it is Cirrus's turn. Yeah,
I'm going to survive another way, I know. Can I table talk
a bit here? Okay? Yeah, Like I I actually don't think we're
gonna survive another wave. Okay, I don't. Yeah, it's possible of
us will go down, but I think we can do it. Okay,
So I have to, Like, what I'm thinking of is running in.
I need to see I'm so sorry, I need to see exactly thirty feet
running in getting off a beacon of hope, which would allow everyone to gain
advantage on wisdom saving throws and death saving throws and regain maximum number of hit
points from any healing and then hitting us with a mass healing word but that
is just like to keep us up. I'm not doing any other damage to
frozen Fred and so well we come anyway until this cleft's gone. So yeah,
that's my assumption at least is there, Like, can do we have
a concept of how big the radius is based on what we've just last witnessed
on the last round. Um yeah, I think give me a perception a
survival or an investigation. Check. Okay, goodness me, it's getting pretty
far. It's looking at to be about sort of sixty feet or so.
It definitely seems to be reaching out at least about this far, maybe a
little more. It seems to be growing. I think you guys would be
aware of that as well. I can't see where Jilden is. I can
only kind of see where Thrac is. Can you guys run from the radius
from where you are or where you still in it? I think actually,
in fact, I think Thrac would probably shout to you and say, fine,
git back, get away from it, all right. In that case,
that's what I'm going to do. Okay, And oh I can still
see him. I can't do any damage to him because of the glyphs,
but I can still kind of see Thrac. No, and I'm too far
to do anything else. Okay, Okay, I think that's it for me.
Thanks, Okay, Jilden is your turn? All right? I moved
my sphere ever closer it is now. Actually I ram him with it,
because why not? I don't think it's gonna need damage, but I'm gonna
run them anyway, so I would have to make a deck save. I
believe the hell is a ram. No, just the sphere and ram into
all the sphere is doing it. Yeah, yeah, I run the cinder
creature. I thought you turned into a ram. It was hilarious because it
was something that Denky's character could do in Oracles Rest, like three years ago.
He could turn into a ram and just run at stuff and hit it
with his head. It was even funny because it was a Kenko all right,
I just got consort of time travel back to that point. Yeah,
I think. Yeah, it strikes the eyes. You do see some of
the ice crack and chip off, but it's just clearly not doing anything.
It's almost like it hits a sort of magical force field more than more than
hits the ice itself. Okay, in that case, I the ice is
very clearly sort of magically enhanced. Could I choose to make a bonus action
as an action? No? Oh, I might find out tomorrow that you
can, but I'm pretty sure you can't. Okay o, No, you
can't very well, very well. I will take Cirrus's advice and and run
thirty feet in this direction, trying to find wherever boy see it is good
good, all right. I don't even know if I'm far enough away,
but I don't think Jordren would have seen anyway how for his area of effect
was she just keeps getting hit by a cold Yeah, that's happened, egg,
Okay, swag, it's your turn, thanks, m right, So
I'm gonna move there, and that's my turn. That's uh. I just
dash sixty feet as far as you can out of the area. The does
the flaming sphere have like any sort of a c or HP or anything like
that. No, it's just my concentration. Yeah, I don't know when
like d n D, but in boulders Gated does boulders Gated does never run
into it. This is a lot. That's why my boulders Gate. No,
honestly, Baldersgat has been the most useful thing ever, because most players
do generally understand a lot more about D n D. It's just sometimes they
have confused a boulders Gate role. But the payoff has been brilliant. Look
at mugs. That's what a bonus action is. She keeps looking for a
starian. You'll be here somewhere. None of you are affected by the cold
this round, Thank God for that. It does grow a little larger radius
and it is sears term. Okay, I will what will I doing?
Okay? So I see my compatriots coming, I see the the or expanding,
and I know what that thing is capable of doing. So I guess
do I have to be standing inside it to be able to to diffuse it?
No, you can be within five feet. Okay. In that case,
I suppose I will do just that. Then I'll try and diffuse the
the glyph to my southeast. Yeah, how does see her do this?
So there's this monitoring right behind me as and I see it, you know,
flitting about trying to you know, poke me in the ass. I'm
going to spin around and then close my eyes, palms together, channel my
key and then press my hands as hard as I can open on the floor.
And there's a small pulse and it kind of makes the ground shift,
and as it does, the glyph dissipates. It does the the eyes that
is sitting over cross and Grave breaks off for a moment. It looks like
he sort of falls inert, But in fact, you activate round two.
You have freed him from his feed or frozen. He no longer has he
no longer has really much ice sitting over him. He's just this sort of
very large looking clockwork magical drone. There are like pulsing parts of arcane energy
moving through him. He seems to be somewhat kind of reminiscent of those sort
of ancient columns that you might recognize from just any fantasy thing that has columns
in it, but with some sort of clockwork and mechanical elements to him as
well. The creature doesn't really have a face or anything like that, but
it's sort of it appears to be sort of stumbling forward as the ice breaks
and somewhat sort of scanning the area around it. Fred is freed, and
I need to put him back into the turn. I'll like, oh god,
what was his thing he went after? I think he was a seven?
He went after you, right, thrack? Yeah, okay, frozen
Fred, So it's free. It is still your turn. Free. Ah,
Yes, I don't have I use my action to diffuse the glyphs,
so I don't have any way of attacking this thing now with a bonus action,
So I am going to I suppose use my action now to would it
be table talk? Would it be dumb to drink my last potion? Now?
O douse, it's never done, they're not. You would also know
that thrack can magically produces, but they're not super rare for us. Okay,
well, in that case, I should then use my bonus action to
consume my potion. And that was remind me again, DM, Sorry,
what was one healing potion? It was like a two D four plus two
two D four plus two. Yeah, thank you. Okay, I want
to move eight moving on your time. I'm not moving there, okay.
On and drone is going to try and stab you again or thirteen? I
think that's a miss. That's a miss. Yes, okay, Cirrus,
your turn is moving around in front of you. Let me give him a
little bit of lines, a different token. Perfect I am. I'm like
scared that he's moving around and he has a radius. I don't know if
the radius is still in effect here, right, and we won't know until
his turn, So I think I'm gonna do the worst thing. Oh gosh,
if I just run away in this other direction and try to loop around
and catch you guys, at least it's gonna take a long time. Maybe
I can't hug this wall because the thing I sing there, I don't know
what to do. Well, I at least I can try and hit him
now with literally anything. What is my guiding bult here? One hundred and
twenty feet that's good, Okay, I am going to attempt to hit this
thing for the guiding bolt, okay, fifteen missus who Okay, maybe it
does hit it, but you just see it strike like a piece of sort
of composite armor on this thing. You see this guiding bolt flash of light
strike this thing. The creature kind of like moves a little and it's pushed
a little bit, but clearly didn't do any sort of significant damage to it.
Maybe leaves a scorch mark on this kind of old, ancient looking rusted
composite metal. Yeah, okay, and then I'm gonna run a little bit
further back youre, just in case, and try to like hug this wall
for the best of my ability. Okay, Yeah, that's it. Jilden
hmm. Okay, I think I don't have much in a way of options
here. I will be the sacrificial lamb run towards it. Okay. Oh
gone As a bonus action, I will pull this flameous feedback and ram it
once again into frozen fruit. To you if it will do any damage now
that he is no longer ice called, which is a deck save. If
it lies all right, decks save a seventeen, we'll succeed and take half
damage, which will be two fire damage, so worthwhile. I'm so glad
that he's on my bonus actions to keep this up. I honestly don't know
if you know whether it does do any damage. That's a m a far
life from him. Horrible options, horrible Okay, in that case, I
just go and then I'm going to cast entangle underneath him, which is a
strength saving through rights the strength save seventeen. Can you start one with seventeens
please, it's really get in my way my plans. Well, in a
twenty foot square starting from the point within range, so I would start it,
I suppose between he and I. So yeah, this whole sort of
lock between he and us would be an entangled mat of beads. Okay,
let me see if I have a square thing to put down there. I
although it's probably pointless actually because I think it doesn't. You don't have to
do a recheck upon its turn. I think it's just it just goes and
then disappears. It's just one check, I think, when you cast it,
and then that's okay. Well eh, she'll just throw their arms with
the other. He keeps moving forward, all right, Frank, okay.
I sort of looked to see her and say, Who've got this? And
then I run thirty feet away from him, towards the greater rand, greater
friend. A greater friend would say, A greater friend, and let's see
you in at the distance, and I am going to cast by a ball,
a big one. So I think Thrack sort of like plants his staff
and with his hand he is the binger gun thing again and light starts gathering
at the end of whose finger, and it fires out from it towards frozen
thread and smashes into Now. Last time we did this, we I believe
underestimated how big the because it's rate. It's twenty foot radius, which means
it's forty by forty feet. He does a kamea mayor. It's massive,
so I don't know if there's anything that can catch on fire, and a
forty foot forty foot radius a spirit mayor, Yeah, it's more like it's
actually more like a spirit bumb Actually, oh my god, it's actually my
character. So I get to favorite hope I want. Well, you can,
you can launch the fireball like behind him. I think you know what
I think does happen? Tell me where this lands? You tell me?
I think it hits him square and face. Okay, so it does,
but it hits here, and so it's going to be twenty foot this way
in twenty twenty foot that way. Yeah, all right, Well, okay,
I don't think anything sets on fire. This whole place is like covered
in layer upon layer upon layer of ancient ice. It probably does melt a
bunch of it away, it melts some of the remaining ice that's on frozen
Fread, but it doesn't. Yeah, it doesn't like catch everything on fire
in the room. So it will just do whatever damage needed to do twenty
nine fire damage. Unless he makes he does not. He does not damage
twenty nine fire damage. This you can tell does do damage to him.
As this strikes frozen Fread, you see chunks of ice come off, but
you also see just bits of him flying backwards as well, chunks of wood
igniting in the air, metal falling off of him, and yet this absolutely
deals damage to him to get him with that fireball. Okay, anything else
right, Nope, that's my turn. It's his turn. Let's see if
I can refresh you're the flash phrase now, Nope, you are very lucky.
Let's see if he can Where can he go here? The area here
is difficult terrain, So he has half the area here is difficult ter rain
from the truth entangle. Yeah, oh okay, how far two in front
of foot in front of him. Okay, so that's going to cost him
forty to get there, so he can get to year and then he can
get Wow, it's fair. Yeah, that's horrifying. Actually, yeah,
he starts moving towards the area that this fireball came from. Eventually, yeah,
you see this fifteen foot mechanical gollum appear in front of you. But
that's where he gets. He's still ten feet away from you. He's not
quite within your range, and you're lucky. He doesn't have any sort of
like ranged ability outside of his flash phrase, which is not recharged yet.
So it is sears turn. Okay, I am going to try and get
rid of this monitor now with my staff swinging around for an eighteen to hit.
Eighteen definitely hits you, all right, as I whack it round the
back for eight points to sorry five points of blushing damage and you destroy the
final monodrone in the area. Okay, then I'm going to try and suppose
move my forty foot distance here and then there's not much I can do now,
But maybe instead i'll there got forty foot then instead, that's better Cyrus.
Yeah, man, this place is big. Okay, I'm gonna run
forward. From my distance, I can't see anyone. The only thing that
I can do is try and set out another guiding bolt. So I'm going
to do that. Gosh, that's a nine another miss. I think it
just strikes again, the same sort of composite armor on his back. Yeah
nothing, okay, okay, uh sorry, Just give me one second to
see if there's literally anything else that I can do. No, if you
don't know everything that you're going to be doing exactly on your turn, then
you're out of the campaign. Oh no, we all know that we've all
met that guy whack Stephen say min So that would be Maya. Maya will
have Maya. If Maya was the gym, he would have calculated every possible
variable of this combat before you'd have rolled initiative. So I do have an
alternative battle NEP with all your character hookings, whole week between sessions, calculating
your very exactly what was going to happen could have gone. Your one second
has been over for a long time. I know. I don't think there's
anything else I can do. So that's it, I guess, all right,
Jilden mmmmmm mmm yeah he What does he look like to me? Does
he look like he's made of metal? Yeah, predominantly metal, bits of
stone and wood and ice, and then sort of gems arcane gems floating around
in his middle. All right, then I'm gonna hop backwards a good twenty
feet and then I'm going to cast heat metal again checks over that um and
that will be a what is it? Brain? I'm saving through? Please
con save a eighteen? Just stop. It's getting really nice. Yeah,
does it do anything on? I mean, you're going for strength and conn
on all of these spells as well, which I know. It's all I
got. It's all I got. Okay, was it heat metal? Okay?
Yeah, heat metal. So we can't drop the object because it is
the object. We had a discussion last time, so it can't asked dis
avantage in attack rules and ability checks until the start of my next turn.
I don't think it takes any damage, Okay, Okay, So in that
case, then I'm going to use my bonus action to world shape into a
brown bear again, and that is the end of my tourne for now.
Oh okay, I now understand what this spell is. This is not an
object. This is a creature. I think I consider it to be a
large sue of harmor mascuaraining is a creature? Yeah, no's so that's that's
what the terminology is there. I'll let you control zee that. I'll let
you redo this move and you've got it last week with the other one.
But I now realize what you're trying to do because I'm reading this spell properly.
Yeah, so that's the key word in there is object and this isn't
an object. So you can only really do that on like you know,
swords and tried harder. It could be an object if you hit it hard
enough, it will turn into an object, multiple objects eventually. Okay.
That case then will cast moonbeam instead, so that would be a consave,
which you already did so half as much damage. Two do ten half so
five radiant damage and you're doing the moonbeam. Yes, bring that spell mark
or over. I don't have to make a save. You already did it
as a consave. But yeah, all right, there you go. You
should go to move that around. That is a concentration. H do you
lose your file? Yeah? Used entangle and everything and I lost them and
dropping my concentration on all these sports. Cool. Yes, the moonbeam will
be right in front of it between us, and yes, the rest of
it is the same. I will be a bear still a boy boy?
Okay, So it takes five damage from that, yes, okay, anything
else in your time, not just a bear? Ope? Uh a rack.
Yes, I I believe I'm going to cast magic Missile and I'm going
to cast that level two so it does an extra dart, so instead of
three darts, it's four coming out of the top of my staff. Uh,
which will be a total of a bus six is fourteen damage routine damage?
All right? Yeah again, like these these spells are doing damage to
this creature. Bits of him are falling off. He looks very old,
much like all of the other little drones that have been in this place.
They're kind of these ancient rusted things that are falling apart, being held together
only by the arcane nature that put them together in the first place. But
he's still moving around, he's still coming for you. Okay, I will
then run away, run there, Okay, worries from it, he says,
let me see if I can recharge the flash freeze all okay, okay,
So moonbeam, what was the rule of moonbeam when a creature as the
spell for the first time on its turn or starts its turn there, so
that would have been So that's its damage taken. So next we already did
it. Yeah, all right, it's going to come after you then,
jild And I think since you are closest now, that is going to it's
just running at you, and it's just going to attempt to slam into it.
A nineteen and a twenty two against your ac Okay, first, I'm
going to hit you for twelve bludgeoning and three cold damage. The second one
will hit you for two bludgeoning and four cold damage. That is a lucky
one. It rolled double ones on its attack. And yeah, I think
we just see like Jilden kind of move this thing just rushes and collides with
Jilden's shell, sending her kind of pin wheeling. Yeah, you're a bear
still, Yeah, I redid my I redid the better exception last time.
Okay, okay, great, perfect, I mean you still have a shell
there. Yeah, that's true. Qureeens of my own HORRIFICI mutated grotesque version
of a bear top. How doubt you? Definitely no doubt about it in
my mind. Okay, see your turn. Okay, I am going to
run up to it, so five, ten, fifteen, twenty feet to
run up to it like that, and then I'm going to what do I
want to do? Either attack it or attack it? I think, so
I'm going to attack it with my quarterstaff striking down on the creature for twenty
three to hit. Twenty three will hit for ten points of blusting damage.
And then I am going to well attack it again, I suppose with my
extra attack the twenty four to hit twenty four heads for a further seven points
of blushing damage. Okay, I'm also going to move it five feet to
the northeast because I have the crusher feet. So with this blush, with
this blushing attack, I've kind of like knocked it kind of off kilter,
and it's now moving away from me, okay, and it moves five feet
back from you, like yeah, yes, okay, Yeah, it kind
of stumbles backwards. Maybe it collides with that ice wall that's sitting there behind
it, one that was drawn up at the beginning of this fight. Okay.
I'm then also going to be an idiot, and then I'm going to
use my flurry of blowers and press the attack. Okay. So that's going
to be two more unarmed attacks. So sixteen to hit, sixteen hits or
seven points of blushing damage, okay, and twenty two to hit and his
five extra points of blushing damage. Yeah, solid set of strikes. I
think this is just like legy strikes all over the place here. And then
there's chunks of this thing falling down as Sear pushes it backwards. It's still
standing though, still going. I regret pushing him back until the very last
moment, but that's my okay serious, It's like the worst thing ever to
have your cleric to be completely separated a million miles away from everyone. Yeah,
So I am going to uh book it. I'm gonna dash sixty feet
to get there. Here, and I still can't see anyone, I presume.
So that's it for me, and let's go for the best. Does
your loon beam give light? Does a moon beam give light? It does
admit light? I mean I can I can see. I can see you
on the map like it's lit. But I I'm assuming that because this wall
is here and you guys are behind a pillar that I can't see. Yeah,
really, you probably can't say through this there is no dynamic lighting on
that. But do you know what I can make it so that there is
just for your Ah that work? Or did that just make a yellow line?
Oh, don't see it. I don't see anything. I don't see
a yellow line. I'm done either way. It's children's turn. Okay,
all rights, my bonus action too. This moonbeam, which we agreed we
could do as well shaped last week. And then I step forward and I
will multi check this creature. Show me a bite and a claw teck,
that's a fourteen and a nineteen the nineteen hits. Yes, okay, sorry,
I was just thinking about something. Yes, check, it's eleven slashing
eleven slashing. Ah, your claws considered magical. Yeah, I'm a magic
bear. I mean you've magically turned into a bear. I don't know if
it means you're a magical bear. Hm hmm. Actually that's a good point.
I'm actually be a rule about us at a specific level you do so
you are magic? No? Okay, yeah, this is only doing half
damage. You can tell because it's just you're you're hitting this thing and you
can feel the arcane energy that's pulling this thing together, kind of granting it
some sort of resistance to your strikes as you smash this thing. Pretty rude,
yep, I guess so I mean you came in and work him up.
He was having a nice little slate, all right. At the end
of your turn is thanks, right, I will do another magic missile all
this time. Just stay at level one. Three more darts come out of
my staff hitting or eleven damage A true eleven Yeah, chunks of this thing
flying off, but it's still going okay, and I will move Yeah,
okay, in dear turn. End of my turn. Okay, let's see
if I can recharge. Oh, we'll hang on first. An that's true.
It does need to make a consave. It's eleven. Oh it doesn't
make okay, there's fourteen radiant damage enough chunks of this thing break off from
it. It's kind of just like completely freaking out, sputtering, falling apart,
and then another wave of this flash freeze strikes all of you. Everyone
needs to make me a deck save. I've moved out of range of getting
the bonus as well, would have actually out. I think it's story.
Well, can I stretch a little bit? Can I reach out? You
do that? You do the thing that you know, like runners do when
they're just about to get over the line, and they do that lean forward
and put their arms back. You do that into the flash phrase as it
happens, Dexter, he's saving Thrower. He got off his cold. No,
so it's terrible news. Okay, great, you make it, see
him makes it. Brown Bear makes it, but Fractor is not. So
Frank will take Actually everyone will take half, won't they regardless? Right?
Oh, I just had the option to take a quarter instead. Thirty one
points of cold damage as this thing bursts into a wave of cold damage for
everyone else, So fifteen for every here, everyone takes fifteen cold damage.
Oh this is not good. You down, yep, I'm down. You're
down? Yeah, see us down. You're fine. Kiln fine, so
I go. I think, yeah, so I get hit by this blast
and it looks like Thrac is about to collapse. And then I think he
drops his staff for a second, and like he starts growling, and he
looks up with rage in his eyes. And fortunately he's an orc, so
he can use relentless endurance. When you are reduced to zero hit points but
not killed, that right, you can drop to one hit point instead.
Yes, it's right, you get to neo this ship. He's still up.
I believe I'm frozen in plays. I think no, everyone made their
checks. Oh no, you find that you are. Yeah, you're restrained.
You're frozen in place. But I can still do actions. I just
can't move right. Okay, mm hmm, so sorry. This is entirely
my fa them so sorry. I'd say it's frozen threads. Yeah, yes,
how worry a lot more still? Okay, Oh, it's it's Sea's
turn. Now hold on before you do anythings, yeah, holding, please
hold the line. Everything's going so slowly on my computer. I don't know
what's happening to it. I'm just I'm just happy the stream is still going.
I'm gonna find it. It's doing a Windows update. So this is
our death saves working cure. Oh you don't get to roll it. Someone
else gets to roll it for you. You can pick Jill and you get
the pressure. Anyone need to die anyway, he get one night for see
Cyrus. Who would you like to roll your death out rock? Okay,
right, okay, if he bears, it's just come. If I'm running
away from him when you need to do most Oh my god, natural one
means you take two fas s. I'm a bit distracted now, thrancted.
If you are, by the way, speak to myself again on this is
all my fault. I was so dumb. I was so dumb I should
have I don't know. I mean like I I made a key mistake here
on all of those turns that I was like running away and doing nothing else.
I should have been healing my goddamn self, and I didn't because I
was like my spells over. Yeah, Jilden, it's your turn. Okay,
who do I have next to me? I have to Okay, can
I see thereg I can't. I don't know why I keep asking these questions.
I don't know what you can see is accurate? Yeah, yes,
you know where he is vaguely because he's been firing spells at you from back
behind you somewhere. But then I continue to stand in front of him,
and I do not use my bonus action to move the moonbeam. And I
will use my bonus action to cast healing word on see you next to me?
It wasn't directly next to me, so I shouldn't get advantage a disadvantage
even Uh so that's won before. Actually, why don't I just do this
the lazy way? Am? I put so much effort and a rolling and
I could just do that seven healing. Okay, see you use awaken.
You're sort of on your back. There is still this enormous creature above you.
There's a bear, but you're probably very cold. But you're up well,
you're prone, but you're a And then I will use primal savagery to
attack the creature. The sixteen The hit sixteen does hit sixteen acid damage?
How do you destroy it? Had six age left? Yeah, I actually
get my claws up underneath the steel plates, so this thing and rip it
up from the bottom up. Where's all the plates tearing and corrugating. I
revealed the inside of this creature it explodes because they all explode, and it
sort of rains down this sort of sparkling dust as the arcane energy from this
thing is expelled in an explosive manner. Gems and bits of metal and wood
kind of raining down around you guys as this thing kind of falls apart.
Yeah, okay, we still have one last piece of business to deal with
here. Yeah, rack anything you want to try and do? What am
I going through right now? Yeah? I mean Cyrus can still die right
now, So it's your time. M Okay, I'm going to try to
break free from the ice that's rosen me okay, man athletics check natural all
twenty three. Break you break the I think I break. I don't even
start. I just immediately start running towards where our last source. I can't
see her, but I think I feel, yeah, ok, feel and
pain. That's cool. And I just start immediately running towards her. So
I don't have my action right, that was my action, right? So
I get as far as yeah, and I'm shouting where serious Cirrus. I
haven't seen her at the age. I don't know what she is, so
yeah, I'm not too sure, I say, with my back on the
ground. Can I just reclining? I guess I owe you one total bear,
total bear. I guess I'm going to go where I last saw her
with half my movement, which is twenty, so that's going to be here.
I found her. She's around the corner. Is she okay? No?
Got chair. I can't. That's my turning out of the movement.
Cyrus, who would you like to roll this death side? If they roll
anything under a ten, he will be dead. Uh yeah, God damn
it. That's safe. Is not attached to any existing stat Yeah, it's
just all I'll do it. Oh God, I'm gonna say thrack because he
felt me. He did the last one. He was feeling me. He
was running towards me. I feel like the connection is there. And yeah
he corled that one again. Right, yeah, how would be up?
Said no? Okay. As I'm running boards, I'm reaching out with my
bond to her through cura and I feel slip away. Roll of four.
Okay, you are out of combat. I get to the corner. You
make it to a lifeless What do you mean she's gone? Come on,
wake up, come on, let's work for We can't do it without you.
What's your hair putting her? What what do you mean? What was
I helping her? I was on my way to her. Just let her
die in front of you, in front of us. Come on, I
would start frantically going through my alchemy satul and casting a spell to create a
health potion. I wouldn't know what else to do. Is that anything you
can do? Yes, it's a spell. Okay, Yeah, and you
summon up a health potion. H I try to. I get down on
my knees and I pull her my lap and I try to give her the
health potion. Yeah, I mean it definitely doesn't work. The liquid just
runs down the sides of her mouth, spills across her chest, doesn't take
effect. Don't do this. Come on, who's gonna see that? My
remarks of their clumsy mountain god? Come on, wake up. This isn't
funny. Come on, come back dad. I start shaking her quite virulently.
Actually, come on, wake up. Why won't she wake up?
Threk? Why won't she wake up? It's gone nut. She was just
alive. To remove my my magic staff, the one I got from the
child of her god angel, and I'm going to place it by her.
I suppose she's on her way to them or past them, or whenever.
I suppose this is only right but a cure, that's not how. We
can't do it without her. She's part of this. It's the brand on
my throat. Can I see Cyrus's mark? I'm not sure where her it
was. I believe it was on chest. It's an arm. Yeah,
if I can see it, I would touch it, and in fact probably
start doing some very rational things at that point, once I realized so she's
lifeless, start holding her arm and then pressing it to my brand, and
trying to put the brands together. Come on, something Hester, work something
in Hester. How can you be called for a higher purpose and then be
allowed to just die? It doesn't work like that. None of it works
like that. Something does happen. You feel significantly weaker, all three of
you. All three of you actually do feel something within your selves. You
can discern, however you want this to feel for yourselves. But it now
only requires two failures for you to die on a death save all three of
you, rather than three. I didn't sign up for this, really,
well, what did you sign up for? I never remember signing it?
All for you? It's just the only way can we not go back.
Somebody who can, somebody can help her. I'm sort of it. I've
seen I've seen things before. I've seen so many things. I've so sorry
off just remembered some thing. Okay, could you use your bullshit? Might
be absolutely awful, But I still have one more charge of my i'm or
ship. Is it too late? I don't know. You tell me.
Wow, it says in the spell. I can use it after I've seen
the results. Is there a time limit? It's it says second level you
can magic legs limited control of the flow of time around a creature as a
reaction after you or a creature you can see within thirty feet of you makes
an attack role, an ability to check, or a saving throw, which
I think is a death saving throw. Right, you can force the creature
to reroll. You make this decision after you see whether the role succeeds are
failed yours. I'm going to allow it, okay, Right, So I
realize this, and I realized that there's a chance here. Two maybe maybe
she can grip to life. So I just give her another chance. And
so I'm holding her now, and I whisper in her ear. Try again,
and fifteen we're all of fifteen. Okay, as you say that we
see the sort of world around you, distort. The three of you go
back to the positions you were in thrack kind of running forward, jild and
screaming, see a watching and seeing serious but not being close enough. However,
before this spell tags hold, I want to just jump too, cious
for a second cirrus. As you do feel the life sort of leave you.
You get struck by this cold. You're sort of thrown into a I
suppose you're just thrown backwards and then suddenly there is nothing. There's just a
sort of expanse of nothingness for a moment. You are caught between multiple worlds.
Here this isn't. This is a strange feeling because you've entered a sort
of state of undeath for a moment. The version of you that we would
see would have multiple heads. Some of those heads would have far more draconic
features, almost snout like on some of them. Some of those heads would
be far more elven less scales. There is sets of energies around you,
one that you recognize to be the energy of Worial, and a newer energy
in your life, one that you would recognize as the elven forest, another
one that is a more dangerous energy that you would recognize from the learning and
Kingdom. In all of these different energies, you can feel a sort of
an element of home and an element of strangeness. You are simply wandering at
this point, naked, alone and on a sort of sea of nothingness.
Your footsteps eventually become heavy. The longer you walk, the more your feet
begin to drag, and you recognize that the world, the plane that you're
on here is sort of filling with a sort of a thick water, and
as it's rising and rising and rising, it's becoming more difficult for you to
walk of the energies you feel, and of several others that could possibly be
here in which direction do you think you would have gone? Is my father's
energy here? Is it individual energies or location base? It's more, you
know what I think it probably is. I think it can be up to
you as to where you think that energy is. I think it is here.
Yeah, I'm walking towards him, but I feel uneasy because I feel
like I should be walking towards warrial. Okay, There's a strength, but
a sort of fierce wildness that comes from the energy that belongs to your father.
I think as you move closer towards that energy, we see these heads
grow more scales. We see these heads start to snap and buy to each
other, and there becomes a sort of chaotic feeling within you. But then
as you move there is a a pull, another energy, dragging you backwards
from the direction in which you first came. Do you engage with that energy?
Does it feel familiar? I'm going to say it does feel familiar,
but it feels more familiar in the sense that it feels like that the energy
that you use to cast some of your spells, the healing spells, and
even some of the sort of necromantic spells that you might have access to blight
and stuff like that. That sort of energy of life and death is what
that feels like. That's the type of familiarity you'd feel from it. And
do I remember how I got here at this point? Roll me a D
twenty eleven, very vaguely, some memories and flashes an idea of a life.
I think you have a sense of self. Okay, maybe not.
The specifics start to move. So as I'm walking towards this other energy that
is making the heads of myself more and more chaotic and sort of violent and
aggressive. I stop, and I start to walk backwards towards it. I'm
still facing my father's energy, but I'm starting to walk backwards. And does
that soothe that chaos? I don't think it does. No, I think
you've taken that on. Yeah. Yeah, I walk towards this new energy,
away from my father, but I am walking backwards towards it. Something
in this endlessness sees you. Something manifests in front of you, a kind
of impossible figure. Darkness upon darkness. The energy that you're heading towards has
headed towards you as well, and it finds you. As the water around
you continues to rise. As you begin to sort of struggle to move even
in this water, this energy speaks and says, well, what do we
have here? Then? Tell me your name? Child, Sara's mace hurt.
Do you remember your life? It's far but yes? What was your
purpose in this life? Heira? Yes, this is a word familiar to
me. Now would you like to serve me in undeath? A strange question.
This energy that is the life and death that is pulling me, now
that it's reached me and is close to me. Do I have a sense
of Barrack or Jilden or Seer in it? Uh? Roll me another D
twenty, I guess two. I don't think you have a sense of any
thing right now. I don't know if you can tell. Yeah, okay.
One other question. When I look down at my naked body, do
I still have the symbol on my arm? Yeah? I look at it.
No, I do not why I can return you to your body,
to your life, to your purpose. M Oh god, oh no?
Does this? Do I have any inkling? But I would be able to
return without this deal. I guess for that one you can roll me a
although you roll me an intelligence check with disadvantage, okay, because the intelligence
is hard to come by where you are at twelve? Uh. You recall
there being ways that people can be brought back from death that isn't necromantic in
a way. There are spells and healing locations. There are angels out there
that can do this kind of thing. If your body is brought to that
and reconnected with your soul, then maybe, but it seems it's unlikely,
but it is possible. This figure is shadow, shadowy and frightening. Ah,
how afraid is serious of death very then, Yes, our afraid is
serious of life marginally less than this figure is pretty frightening. Who are you?
I am Mondrial. This is a name that you would need to roll
me a history or a religion check with disadvantage to try and recall. Okay,
history or religion, go for religion with disadvantage. Seven name means nothing
to you. Great, What would you have me do? This world is
a confusing one to me. I have ought to remain in it. I
understand your struggle. I would have you serve under me. You can continue
with your life your purpose, though you will no longer be a cleric of
the mountain. You would be a cleric of mine. Okay, do I
have memory feeling about Wrial and my being a cleric of Wrial? Give me
another religion check with disadvantage? Yes, very much, sir. I think
that is one one of the clearest memories you have right now. Yeah.
No, No, you have had everything taken from you, your entire life,
and now that life has been stricken from you. Also, why why
do you wish to wade into oblivion? Because there's a right way to be
alive, and I chose my right already I will not forsake him, not
even for myself. Child. I was born into a world that rejected me,
not at first, but eventually. Can you imagine how it feels to
understand one singular thing so completely, to know something so fully, to have
a singular purpose. My purpose was simple life and death, and then one
day to have it all taken from you. Perhaps it would be as if
I were to pull the very beating heart from your body and the pulse in
blood from your veins. What would you give to feel again relief? At
this moment, you suddenly snap awake. There is no memory of anything that
just happened, because you just went back in time. You're clinging to life
as the three other members of your party are looking down at you. What
did you do serious to bring her back? What did I What did I
do when I get to her in time and all the potion? Oh yeah,
slapping her in the face. He was slapping you, that's right,
I think. Well, I think actually while I was running to her,
you know, I failed the role the first time, and I think I
didn't realize that I had any sort of will over it. And I think
I I think I gave a little bit of myself into like trying to help
her hang on this time. I tried more the second time, so I
think that's what saved her. But then yes, I would run over to
her and give her a post which is healing the licksir, it's two D
four plus two. It is just a regular he went potion. There you
go. They got to you in time. There's probably just a healing potion
all around your mouth as you're sort of choking awake, but they've brought you
back from the brink of death here just before you sort of breathed that last
breath and then went on that journey instead. You are sort of recovered.
Vaguely. I think all of you probably feel awful, but for the time
being, you're in a sort of safe environment. There's nothing in here.
You've killed everything, and you can take a moment to recouperate. Come on
now now it's not the time for sleeping and I walk away. Oh you're
fined. Why do you be fair? Mhm sorry, m hum I am.
I kind of like get to my knees and uh, how much healing
did that potion give? Me? Uh? To D four plus two?
Roll at two D four plus two you were your head was in my lap
and I was like feeding the potion too, so it's yeah, it's probably
all over here. And yeah, okay, I yeah, I get to
my knees and I'm incredibly weak, but I I cast a mass healing word
on all of us. Uh yeah, which heals everyone for eight points of
healing and damage. It's just stop that. Just just settle on yourself.
I found a ladder behind the big guy. But perhaps you will want to
rest first. Yes, we we we all should rest. Say if I
must, I could probably do with it. Sit down. I have a
question for you, because I went back in time and that interaction did not
happen. I do not have that chaos right, correct, everyone still has
three death saves as well. And yeah, that entire thing didn't happen.
Interesting, Okay, I'm assuming that I am the only one that saw her
die. Yes, you recall this side of the event and rewound it.
So what have we learned the next time? Then I grabbed her shoulders and
I bring her head to mine and I say, back, you're back.
Now you are gone. I I grab his arms. It's that you strack,
You're back. What do you mean by she's back? I completely ignore
him. He's just not he doesn't exist. I'm used to it. I'm
just yeah, I'm right from from Afar. I don't think Thrack has ever
uh been like this ever? Right, I've known you. Yeah, so
I I just I hold him back and I yeah, our heads together.
We have a nice little moment. Yeah, and I look very awkward and
just shot away. Okay, a little bit forlorn. In fact, I
think I moved to the other side of the static bind actually, just let
them have them, all right, just here, Okay, I'm forehead too,
worhead with you as a friend. Yeah, I don't know what just
happened, but apparently we are now okay, man time check. Yeah.
No, I'm just like, I'm holding your shoulders and like, thank you,
and I I think I am like, okay, m hm, yes,
I think so. I'm sorry for earlier in the day. I'm sorry
for shouting at you. Uh yeah. He I think he grabs your armor
a little bit tighter, and you can feel the strength in his arms as
he sort of maybe pulls it a little too hard, and he gets an
intense look in his eye, and he says, you've caught remember to take
care of yourself so you can take care of us all find the strength to
do that. It's pretty uncharacteristic. He seems almost a little angry, but
not fall or angry. It seems like he's struggling with some something and inside
of him, I promise, I promise, I will. He lessens the
grip on your armor and sort of sets you back down and pats you on
the shoulder and stands up. Good God. I think he sort of go
to the comfort of a spell book and starts looking through. Hello. This
