What you are about to hear will contain violence, disturbing imagery, adult themes,
and may leave you hungry for power and blood. Proceed at your own
risk. On the second day came or return and call his children to the
meeting place on the site of the first city. He will reckon them sitting
on his basalt throne. As the knights get colder in Manchester, so the
lives and the lives of inhabitants become harder. The White Horse five vampires decide
what they're going to do that Oh god, I mean, obviously it's not
what we had hoped or had in mind, but it's one way. The
way I see it, it's only those two break the mask, raid or
this insane ritual. But that's up the lake. Do you think it's possible.
I think it's it's possible. Yeah, But it's a bad fucking idea.
Yeah, it might be. I feel like both ideas are bad ideas.
Maybe No, Yeah, mask gray is breaking is Okay, No,
it's I don't I don't know. It would put us in a lot of
danger, which up ends the world less. All I'm saying is, if
we get a bigger dog to fight the dog then we're gonna need a bigger
dog for that, and a bigger dog for that ways the fucking end.
Yeah, bigger dog, bigger leash, and we don't hold that leash any
other option we lose. I mean imges no, but I mean not just
breaking the mask grade, I mean really breaking the mask great, letting the
mortals know we exist and that we're real, not just a fantasy that just
helps the hunters. There'll be more hunters. We would have to leave.
We'd all have to go into hiding, right, Yeah, i'd fuck.
I don't just slaughter every mortal, you see, Not every mortal is gonna
want us dead. Maybe the majority, though, well fucking mortal is gonna
kill me. Be honest, well fucking mortal is gonna kill any of you.
Enough mortals and they can do anything. I imagine there's enough of us.
Is this just how it's gonna be? Want Well, I don't know
yet, but I just is this just how it's going to be for the
end of time? We just sit here in the in the shadows, hiding.
We we have to. I don't know if we do. We were
human. Once they detest us, we're just beasts to them. Worse than
worse than beasts? Rightfully, so too? All eat them? I mean,
yeah, but give a cow an option? Look good? Maybe those
aren't the only two options. What can the majores do. They can l
be with the first option, which is the ritual. They can help locate
her, that's something. Yeah, right, So if we locate her,
maybe we can destroy her on our own rather do it with help. I
don't think we can do it on our own. I don't like any of
these options. I'm I'm hiding again as it is. I mean, do
you like to go fucking heid anymore? Though? I don't know that I
care? So what happens when we break the masquerade? Oh? Hell breaks?
Yeah, all hell breaks loose. It's all over social media. The
news people freak out. A lot of us horse eye balls, the lab
balls. All right, calm down, We don't know that the horse would
fall exactly, you know, I'm i'm it's just like any progress. Really,
a lot of us are going to get slaughtered until change happens. This
isn't breaking the masquerade. This is literally this dismantling. Yes, everyone out
in the open, yeah, everyone equal? Yeah, I can tears that
we might have the right to vote. Do you think it's possible for everyone
to actually be equal vampires and mortals? I hope. So. I don't
know if I could tell you the number of times people said that over the
years. Grimshaw, you're kind of quiet. Ah, well, either way,
I'm probably going to carry on Hyde and so, Yeah, and the
ritual. What happens with the ritual again? It takes a couple of days,
and you know, we we probably bring back the original vampire, he
most powerful vampire. And I'm no longer sure why we should do that.
Well, how do we know he? It won't be on her side?
He it brings about end times. God, if I think it's all sound
like end times to me. Yeah, well, least one of them is
the end of an era. Yeah, look at this. You had to
clear this place out. I don't know why, because everybody in this place
has a phone, and on that phone is a camera. It's only a
matter of time before the masquerade is torn down for all of us, anyway,
And if we tear it down on our own terms, okay, we'll
wait. They're talking as if the cameralla's gone already. You tear off the
mask doesn't mean they won't simply take control of things their way. Maybe they
put everyone in cages. That's when I nobody would phony gain. Wait,
the Camilla puts people in cages, it's better than I'm hunting them, better
than everybody having phones. What if we make it worse? We could,
that's a very real possibility. How much choice does a gay well? Letting
all the mortals know we exist and we promise we don't mean you harm.
This is how we've been living. Yeah, I don't know. Hospitals,
blood banks, clothes. I just there's a lot of ways they could make
it very difficult for us. Yeah, and that's going to happen. They
close the more we need to feed on that. No, I understand that,
but that's that's my point. We come out there, they're going to
be afraid, and they're going to strike first probably, and then we'll have
no option but to respond, and that will completely validate their fears entirely.
Don't be scared of you, dad, We're outnumbered by a lot. Humans
don't suffer predators. They kill them off. There is no fucking way humans
could wipe us out. Tell that to the jerks. What if we like
glamour every politician. That's a good idea. There are ways for us to
get in a controlled demolition. So much organization, right, that's done?
Break it. Yeah, it's exactly what the vesture are all about. No,
it's not, uh, and it's not to control them permanently. It
would be to keep everyone calm as the situation unfold. What worldwide? Buttcha?
All right? I don't know. It's takes planning, and we don't
have that sort of time. Darius doesn't think we do anyway. She's apparently
is getting stronger by the hour the more time we give her strong as she
gets. And the majors can do nothing else but assist with the ritual?
Do they have no other use? They might? We have to tell them,
what do you think is going to happen if we pull a fallen angel
down to earth? Anyway, that masquerade is golden. That's my concern.
My concern is that this is the one opportunity for progress and we're not gonna
take it. We've got a crazy vampire running around wanting to slaughter thousands.
Potentially we're going to raise another one. I don't know how we're gonna be
able to cover that up. And also it's possible that now is the time
to come out and say you've got criminals, and we've got criminals as well.
We're the same as you. Not all of us want to slaughter all
of you. I don't know, but we need to eat you to live.
I don't eat them and tastes like shit. It's plenty like me.
Yeah, you know, there's a whole subset of people on the internet that
would very much love for this to be a reality and would hand themselves over
to be fed on just saying throwing it out there, it's real. That's
me, it's the President of the United States on that website. Who the
fuck knows? Maybe just the poope. Yeah, definitely. You don't think
anybody's going to disagree with that. But it's a master of needing that crystal
ball though. Yeah, because there's going to be a storm before the calm
either way. But the question is who comes out in charge, not whether
eventually it balances out. Just give them the fucking tooth, right, But
again, it's not I don't think we can control the fallout. We don't
eat or just simply I'm gonna whip off the mask you you say, we
don't need to. But if we end up creating a ship ton of venture
camps and they just turn all the mortals into cattle, I'd say that was
worse, possibly not worth it. If we whip off the mask and this
few days of yours just uses it to gain greater power, you're just passing
over the crown. I can give you a third option if you'd like.
If my vote counts for anything, why not you all see a black man
in a very sharp suit and an arm in a sling walk out from the
kitchen. He's holding a mobile phone. The third option is that you let
few days continue what she wants. That's not a fucking option. And what
does she want? I think she wants this entire country to be hers,
and then she's probably going to get rid of a few old enemies. She
wants to haven't the country. Who the fuck are you? Okay? My
name is Vasa Jones, trimare Primigen and you Darius reached out to me via
my sheriff. Yeah, he do you? He was at the fucking meaning
why he was? I was, yeah, I remember it's your lucky day,
ha ha yeah, all right, lucky day? All right? I
have and I'm assuming this made you're talking about is not a blood mare which
I have the sympathetic link that you might need to take down three days.
So you're just spying on us now and we're supposed to what what link?
I know whose blood you need? Yes? So do we? No?
No? Do you no? I know where this is going? Were you
all about? And sorry? Do I know you? No? You don't
keep talking? M If you don't need my help, I can leave,
I said, keep talking. Mm hmmm. I have traced three days is
bloodline two? And I'm just going to tell you is this fucking important or
what? Yeah? It might be, why if you need it, aren't
you Lionel's laptop. I'm in the privileged position of holding in my hand a
garbage excuse for the entire Tramair to turn on Lionel. I know he didn't
burn down the shantry, the entire Tramair, all two or three of you.
A ha ha a. So there's definitely not an entire network of chantries
around the country, around the world that would be ridiculous, and you'd call
on them for what's happening here in Manchester, not if I don't have to.
If you break the masquerade, we have a problem that they have been
contained before. No matter how much damage you do, not everyone will believe
you. Why I've recently been informed that my search for something has not borne
fruit. There are other ways of reaching Golconda and the hermetic materials owned by
this cult. The silver Moon would be perfect payment for me, don't you
think? What do you want to? They perform some semblance of magic,
as do I. What are the materials that they have? Books? Notes?
God, I'm not here to threaten you. I'm not here. Give
me your phone. He drops it on the table. I pick it up,
and I put in my fucking phone number. Okay, I'll text you.
I texted myself from his phone. But we know we need to talk.
It's nice to meet you again. M M. Maybe knock next time.
We'll go through the front door. My bar of course, me going
through the front door, very subtle. And he turns around and walks through
a wall, working to Mia. No fuck that, I won't oay,
So I'm gonna tell me what the fuck he's on about with his blood.
Well, I assume he meant just your I don't think he meant your blood
exactly, Grimshaw. Unless you know something we don't I know his blood that
every second tremor so you've ever met has been after me blood for something or
another. Yeah, I don't think he was talking about you. That's why
I try to give it. I bet somewhere along the line he will.
Well, we're not gonna that's not an option, Grimshaw. You're not a
tradable commodity, not to you. Well, we're with you, so you're
not going to be traded while we're with you. What is his blood?
Door? Just k various? What's happening? You got a ventru and a
tremor in front of you. Which one of you, Keillen first went through?
Stupid fucking question right, Well, for me, it made a tremor.
It don't work with them all because they fucking eat us and they find
us and they hunt us more than anybody else. Yeah, they use their
blood various rituals and stuff. It's very powerful that ship run through his face.
I wonder if that's how the mortals will feel when we step out of
the shadows. I mean probably it's probably not going to change life as we
know it for decades, one hundred years, two hundred years, but maybe
there's a chance that in the future, a vampire will sit next to a
human on a bench and have a conversation and not immediately want to kill each
other. What's the fucking difference except to make some of us all that week?
Wait? Who is that guy? You said he was the lap dog
to the prince? Yeah, he was in the meeting with Lionel. So
what does he stand to gain? He wants the prince? Then, that's
what I wanted to know. Well, it sounds like you're a blood pinotta.
Did he come for you? He said? Do I know you?
So? I don't think so? Right? Want so he wasn't talking about
you? Soon enough, you will, Look, I won't let him land
on you, right right? That's nice? But what if you're all dead
or it comes down to nice? Well, that I can do. I
wonder if he can help with the ritual. I don't think we should do
the ritual. Are there any more like you with your blood that you don't
like me? Are there any There must be precks? There's always a prick,
Hi. Probably is there a way to find them? And the majors
do it? Probably they always find us one way or another. Okay,
Well, maybe there's a start. Maybe we don't fucking need Can you do
that, sir Blake can M Sorry, that's okay, I don't. I
don't know. I've never tried. You doubt you could trace someone's blood.
The magic is very different. But I think a couple of you know,
the last place you saw Salubrity, Oh, the caterer might know. Oh
she's a fucking nightmare. Yea more than three days, a greater nightmare than
that. We keep talking eith. Yeah, she just I've seen Salubrity with
her before, so she might you know, she might know some information.
I wonder if there's a way that I could ask her about it without obviously
talking about up sort of the plan or anything like that. You just I
don't know. Well, I mean, she stands to lose a lot.
Maybe she would help. I don't want her anywhere near Grimshaw. Does she
know about him? No, No, we're gonna keep him stay that way.
Okay, So he's stays behind. I can go by myself. You
sure, yeah, okay, I'm sure. Okay. Doesn't she stand to
gain from this? Imagine all the wolves, all the walls are torn down,
Bambaris can't feed in secret, no more. It might be she might
not see it that way either. It depends on what your understanding of how
she applies her power is. M. Where's the shot? Do you know
where to find her? Yeah? Should be, she should be at the
AEC right now. You want to go alone? Yeah? Yeah, I
can do that. You're sure it's better if I do it this way.
She knows that she has eyes everywhere and around that place, and if she
sees me rocking up with you guys, kind of blows cover or whatever the
information I'm trying to get. If you think so, I'm okay at hiding
question, why exactly do we need to know about where the other salubrit are?
Again, we don't need to know about where the other salubrity are.
We need to know whose blood we need from, you know? Yeah?
Okay? Tuat here? What did he say he wanted promise silver moon bolt
shit, important documents, information journals, probably a totem or two, I
don't know, whatever they have he wants it. The Camarilla being the Camarilla
treating us like if we you know, one time I want an option,
there's no ship. Yeah. Well, unfortunately we're on the losing side and
happened for a very long time. Yeah, well, let's let's see what
faith can check loose. All right, Okay, everybody thinks on it.
Yeah, we don't have to make a decision right now, but we need
to make sure it's the best one we can make. Okay, if you
get in trouble, we'll just call us. Yeah, of course, I'll
meet you back here if you Yeah, all right, thanks. I guess
we'll just fucking sit around. Well, I mean you could come up with,
you know, more pros and cons of these decisions, and then I
don't know, go over it again when I get back. Would be of
use you just uh, you just come back in that case safe, you
know, exactly where you can find the Kyra. I nod at Darius to
like follow her. I don't want her go in completely by yourself. I
want to just follow behind and give her back up in case she needs it.
I wish I do just sit in the fucking club. Yeah you want
me to go? No, you shouldn't go nowhere near there. No,
it's a it's a blood club. You shouldn't go, right. I'm pretty
good at hiding hers. I get the idea this year. Not Darius.
Well, I wasn't sending him to hide I was just standing him, sending
him to be outside for her, you know, just in case she texts
you. You're right there, going out in the park nearbyos I mean,
yeah, I mean, I don't know. I don't want to piss her
off here, didn't want him there, So maybe just nearby. Yeah,
that's all I mean, just in case she needs it. She's done talking,
you can escort her home. All right, Yeah, I go my
phone. Okay, thank you, waitress. Takes about a fifteen to twenty
minute walk through Manchester to the AEC Club. It's getting cold. You see
fewer and fewer people, a lot fewer than you expect walking around the city
center. Make it into like the trendy part of the center where like all
the posh bars are and the jewel of the center is the AEC. Is
there anything you do before you go inside? Ah? No, I just
kind of maybe I look around, just to see if the street is clear.
I don't know if there's anything weird on the street itself. M yeah,
a WITS plus awareness role please awareness plus wits. Oh Dan three,
that's uh, yeah, you noticed that everything seems safe. But there's silver
Moon graffiti very close to the club. And more scribbles of you put bell
around the witch elm okay, okay, yeah, I'm just gonna walk in.
You walk in much like the rest of the town. Very quiet in
here, a couple of people, maybe mortals, just having a nice night
out drinking. You look every direction, every entrance is covered by one of
the Gatora's gooms. Okay, she's on the Does she see me come in?
I think she's probably having a conversation with one of her people, so
she doesn't see you come in. Okay, hey, yeah, I'm going
to go out to the balcony go meet with her. Yeah. She turns
around and immediately dismisses this guy. How are you, my dear? Hello,
I'm fine. Could I take a couple of minutes of your time?
Do I talk about something? Of course? Of course, come with me.
You come with me. She leads you to her office, closes in
the door instantly cuts out all of the sound. Have you heard about this
badias thing? Mmm? Yeah, yeah, I didn't really see it coming,
but no worries. That's surprising. Well, you see I'm clearing out
pretty soon. Oh yeah, oh yeah, h what why when my mission
seems to have been a failure as no more family here for me to gather,
and I've had an invitation from small friends. My family has a mission
now, can I ask what it is? Certainly it seems that old blood
is stirring in other places as well. We have to return to the homelands.
I have to protect a person who made us, Okay, but we
have time for that, you know, Kindred moves slowly. I'm not going
anywhere anytime soon, and I certainly won't leave without letting you know what's going
on. Okay, Yeah, I mean, do you think that this half
few days person is going to like what do you think is going to happen?
She'll kill lots of people, she will command the camilla across the country,
and well, who knows. I've not lived for several thousand years,
so whatever is in the mind of an ancient, it's beyond me. Do
you think she's a god? If she thinks she's a god, then good
luck to her. Do you think she'll take over? Oh, without a
doubt. Someone doesn't kill her, But I don't know of any other vampire
is quite as old as her. I mean, does it have to be
someone as old? Like? How does someone kill a vampire, that old
m I've had practice. What you do is you wait until the sun's up,
just is it breaching the horizon, and you say that first shod of
light. You have to push against the desire to go to sleep, and
then you take as many people as you need and you go to where they
sleep. Then you drink them or set them on fire, or put a
tree through their chest. Say, there's nothing quite like the blood aged a
thousand years. How many times have you had the opportunity to experience that?
Just once my pack we we killed a very old Arcadian in London. This
was much before your time, but I found opportunities in the Camarilla. Do
you like working with them the Camorilla? No, they're very stuck up.
They have almost no sense of right and wrong, although that's one of their
better qualities. I have a weird question for you. Of course, it's
really weird, though I don't know. Well, now you have me intrigued.
Remember when we went to the basement, I swear to God I saw
someone down there. Yes, you will have not only the prisoners, but
a collection collection. Huh see, I'm h I think I might be trying
to build a collection of my own you know, so you are interested in
the family business. I got wind of this, uh, this name,
and I just can't get it out of my mind. I was curious if
you knew who they were just the name Harry. M hmmm. I don't
know why. I just how does that come into your mind? It's the
craziest thing. I just had this dream. I just dreamt of this person
and I just knew their name was Harry, and I thought I needed to
find him. You know, it's just hard to explain, but just that
feeling of just needing to find him. Would you like to make manipulation subterfuge
role? Please? Oh? Four successes. That's very good faith. Forget
your old life. You're part of my family now. I know who Harry
is and I would never hold anything from you, but I need to know
that you're by my side. Can I just take an out of game second?
Yes, you absolutely can. Oh, okay, do you have any
questions for me? Oh? Yeah? Like I know her well enough and
I know me well enough. What does it mean when she says by my
side exactly? I mean I feel like I know, but I would just
like the clarification. She is clearly implying that she wants you to be part
of her TI meets your family. Yeah, and the fact that she's asking
now definitely implies that if you find out more about your past, that may
not be a possibility. Oh okay, is there something you don't want me
to know? Of course not, I just think that it is. I
don't want to lose you. Why do you think you'd lose me if I
just know? I don't know where you came from. But Harry betrayed me.
He had made a deal with me and we were going to take down
the Camilla. The Tremaire was going to be great. But last year he
had a change of heart. I found him, So I will let you
talk to him if you want. I don't believe everything he says. Celibria
hunted for a reason. Okay, okay, I'm very sorry. I am
very protective of my family. You know that. Yeah, yes, yes,
of course you don't have to apologize. But I think I think i'd
like to talk to him. I will do what you say and not believe
everything he has to say, but I think I need to know. Of
course. Would you like a drink? Ah? Yes, sure, Okay,
Yeah, She reaches behind her and takes out a okay, one of
those insulated bottles, very nice and shining and chrome with a screw top,
and she hands it to you and moves the you know, filing cabots,
opens up the secret ladder to her basement, and she begins to calm down.
Yeah, I'll follow her, of course, after a little bit.
You're in this day Ark dungeon once again. There's no one in the prison
cells this time. You do remember rows and rows of bodies hanging from the
walls. We don't have any lights down here. That's not a problem for
you, that's all right, please m hmm. She leads you to one
end of these rows of bodies. See that there faces are about five feet
off the floor, and they're hanging upside down in Each of them has a
tap out of their mouths. You get to the end of the row and
you immediately recognize now he's face hanging upside down. Mobile. I can't really
talk to him like that, can we? Seems like your problem, faith,
I'll give you some privacy. Okay. She turns around and begins to
leave. I walk forward and kind of crouch down, Harry, Yeah,
don't get a response. Can you realize that he has a tap out of
his mouth as well. Can I take it out? Yes? How would
you like to do that? Oh? Is there a way that I can
analyze? Like is it connected to some sort of vein? If I pull
it out, then it will kill him? M hmm. Wits investigation.
Oh this blood smells really good, just very fresh dripping from the tap.
Ner hunger increases by one as you investigate. This piece of metal has been
flesh crafted into his body. If you pulled that out, it would hurt,
but he wouldn't die. Ocock cock cool. Can I gauge how much
time I have down here? Like? Should I get an impression that I
had I had one hour? Or how much time do I have? I
think your impression is you have as long as you need. I would like
to flash craft this tap out of his mouth. Of course, I don't
know what the role for that is. But you can resolve plus protein,
I believe, mm hmm. Yeah, do the rawse check and oh oh
sorry, that's fine. I do the RAS check as well, and oh
you go one hunger up. Okay. You do have a flask of blood,
okay, but whether you use it is up to you I need to
quickly check the what you need to succeed on for this, but I think
two successes should be enough if you've got all the time. I think it
just takes a long time to do. That's the only Yeah, okay,
yeah, it does. You begin to mold the flesh around this piece of
equipment. As soon as you do, wakes up and begins to yell with
pain, which is very difficult with a piece of metal in your mouth.
H M, I'm I'm sorry. Uh, I just want to talk to
you. I'm sorry. Ah, I'm just trying to get this out.
And after half an hour, very carefully removing miss you can then unhook him
from the wall and lay him on the floor. Oh thank you. Yeah,
you realize that he can't see anything in the darkness. I know you
can't see me, but I think you know me. Maybe maybe? Uh?
Oh my name is Faith Somerton. Oh no, no, Faith,
who turned you? Ah? No? I I think I get it now.
Oh, I'm sorry, I don't really remember who you are. That's
okay, I remember you. Oh we had some good times. Is there
any light? Is there any way I can conjure light? I don't know
any light here? I don't think there is. I think last time the
coacher was here, you remember her having a candle. Okay, I'm assuming
I don't have a candle. You search around quickly, you can find a
candle okay, okay, okay that she must have had from previous visits.
Okay, yeah, okay, I light the candle, bring it over.
Oh my god, it is you. Ah, I face, I'm really
sorry. I didn't. I didn't know that. You don't have to apologize
to me. A coacher is fucking see. I I didn't expect her to
do this to all these people. So look, I gotta get you out
of here somehow. I don't really know how. I don't I don't know
if she'll let you do that. What am I going to do? Leave
you here? It would be best for you. I wouldn't blame you.
Fuck shit. There's only one entrance, obviously, we have to literally walk
through her office. M Yeah, how did you get safe haven once?
Yeah? Me too, I've been hiding. You're asking me how I got
here. Yeah, we've all been hiding. Found a pretty good place for
it too. And I made a mistake. I went outside and I shouldn't
have in the case of a family. Did you find it find the others?
No, that's well hidden. I don't know. I don't ah h,
I don't know how we know each other. I just know that you
were going to help me at some point. I don't really remember a lot.
Okay, okay, yeah, I can tell you. I can tell
you. Do you remember us meeting? I remember you guiding me somewhere?
Yeah? Yeah, that was it. You were basically out or by yourself.
You'd escaped from this cult, and I found you and I brought you
back, and you weren't doing well, so I gave you some of my
blood and it helped and well, and then we survived for a bit.
Yeah. Yeah. Does he have three eyes? He has three eyes?
Right? Does he have three He doesn't have three eyes? Okay, okay,
do I say he's just a human? Am I sensing that he's just
a human. No, he's definitely a vampire. Okay, it doesn't have
three eyes. Ah. What what did you do to betray her? She
said you betrayed her? Yeah, m I had a chat with a friend
and she helped me realize that it was not the best path to destroyed.
I don't know how old you are, but there's an entire clan of blood
Majores that hate me, and uh, we were gonna we were going to
destroy them together. We're going to trap them, burn their place down.
She got half the plan done and I didn't follow up on my end.
Okay, Ah, they've risen a god out there, so kind to figure
out what to do? Uh? You know who know how to deal with
something like this? Yeah? Uh? Jean, friend of mine, She
sorted the ship out last time I was last year, last time I was
here walking around, not hanging upside down? Ah? Where can I find
her? Who were hiding together in Victoria archers? I don't know if you
can talk to her though, Okay, I mean we can try. Yeah,
she's she's not conscious. She is in torper. She's in torpor.
Uh yeah, uh uh she's dead. Almost. Don't kill a vampire.
How do you how do you save someone from torpor? You're right? Oh,
you feed them a ship ton of blood? What's what's a's like?
A is there a I don't know, like a number for ship ton?
Is there like a ship ton of blood? Uh? It's not your science,
it's no, it's I don't know how old she is it's going to
be a lot. Okay, okay, Well, we gotta fight like a
fucking god an I guess whatever that means. Yeah, yeah, few days.
Do you know a named few days? No? No, okay,
okay, Sorry, listen, I'm sorry. I don't want to come down
here and interrogate you. I want to get you out, but I don't.
I don't know how if I try, she'll kill us both or we
both end up being the recipient of tap mouth. Yeah, but listen,
now, I know that you're here, and I think some serious ship's going
to go down in the city, like some serious ship, and I don't
know how the ac I don't know how this place is gonna hold up.
I'll come for you if I can. Okay, I'm sorry, Okay,
it's okay, faith, Uh fuck okay? You know uh you know a
man named John D? Yeah? Fuck? Yeah, yeah, I know
a man named John D. You've not forgotten everything then, I just remembered
it. He killed me, That's what I hear. And somebody called me
a spy. I don't know who's I a spy for. Do you know
you offered to help me find out who killed my sire? Okay? I
did it. You helped, Okay, but I wouldn't have worked without your
help, and I was kind of hoping you'd make it out alive, but
not like this. Yeah, she's my sire, so yeah, I knew
there was a reason she was Kevin grabbing bodies all over town. I'm really
sorry. You don't have to apologize. Oh my god, No, I'm
I'm sorry. I think I have to go now unless there's anything else,
not that I can think of. But Okay, I trust you, so
it's safer for you to leave. She'll just put me back off something I
don't know. I have a friend who might need to might also be hiding.
He says that he knows your name. What's his name, let's just
say he's of the Yeah, yeah, I think kind of what you mean.
Yeah. I In that case, I feel like maybe another time we
can talk about it. It's good to know I'm not online. No,
I'll come back for you. Stay safe, Yeah, okay, mush,
I will see you later. Don't worry about me. Yeah, okay,
Okay. I slowly get up and sort of back out of the room.
I'm leaving, but I don't really want to. But I kind of know
that I have to. So he rests his head against the wall and looks
like he's calming himself, and you climb up the ladder. Did you say
anything to the caterer? Thank you for that? It was interesting. You're
welcome child. Is there anything else you need from me? No, I
don't think so. Just I think this person who they raised is very dangerous,
so take care of yourself. Be careful. I am very careful.
Can I actually like, can I get a read on her insight plus composure?
Okay for successes. I think the emotions you're getting from her that she
is extremely dissatisfied with what you've done, and it's probably in the back of
her mind thinking about that thing she asked you to do. Go and get
Sophia, I am. I also just wanted to say before I leave that
I met with Sophia. I go on, Well, I'm planning on still
talking to her again. I'm planning on. She was very resistant at the
time, but I feel like I can talk to her again. I just
wanted to let you know I've said you to a task. If you don't
complete it, they consequences, my patience run out. You're either part of
my family or not. What's the task brings fear to me? Mh dead
or alive? I understand, get up, I leave its faith leaves bac.
I think she feels every single Kindred's eyes on her, and that would
be a very good place for a break. We return to the White Horse
after a very chill conversation with the kra and some new information. What's everyone
else been doing while the other two are ut? I think I've been trying
to convince these two that I don't think our best shot is to someone someone
more powerful that we can't control. Okay, then what's our other option?
Because you don't want to break the masquerade? Either's let's just kill her?
Yeah? I know that you You just managed to kill your sire, but
this she is so much more powerful than your sire, will have more help.
Yeah? Who I mean? You? You said Darius is really powerful?
Yea? And what's gonna happen when Darius sees her? I hope to
god he'll be fine, but he might not. You think he'll cave?
No? I don't, but it's a possibility. What about the dogs?
Didn't you all get your asses handed to you last time? Yeah? Absolutely?
Uh? What do you mean? I couldn't even look at her.
Oh yeah, it doesn't she have the prince and all the venturous put to
someone up? Yeah, I h I really don't think it's an option.
M We're gonna need help outside of us, and it's either breaking the masquerade
or it's summoning somebody else. Those are only two options. It feels like,
well, I mean maybe maybe the caterer head. I don't know.
Yeah, what's the kid in? Oh that was fast fast, It's been
fucking hours. Yeah, well I thought she'd be gone for a day or
two. I didn't know honestly after that, meaning it's frankly a miracle.
I'm even back, so okay kidding what happened? Yeah? I mean,
like, sure, we have this god who needs to be killed, but
stay with me, now, what if instead we kill the caterer because I'm
pretty sure she's going to kill me pretty soon. Also, Harry's in her
basement. I told him i'd get him out. Harry. Yeah, the
Harry, My Harry, you're Harry. She has a full on what was
it? What were you talking about? The venturu and like cattle, she
has taps coming out of their mouths. Everyone's hanging upside down all right,
where it's some fucked up shit clubb rs the AEC right, yeah yeah,
all right? Can we take her just? I mean, she's Scott,
she has so many people working for her. She's just it's she's a full
I don't know, all right, catch me up? The fuck is Harry?
Why is he important? Okay? Uh? Yeah, here's what happened.
I met Harry. I was able to talk to him. He told
me that he had betrayed her somehow. He was looking for revenge, but
then he talked to a friend and they said no, don't do it.
So then he decided they were going to burn down, burned down a building
of some blood magesh I'm trying to think there was a lot. They're the
ones that on the chantry. I think that was the the plan that they
were doing. But he said that he didn't uphold his end of the plan
and that's why she has him. He also said that he also said that
there was a very powerful vampire in Torpor at the moment named Jeanne. Uh.
I was trying to figure out who could help us, and he mentioned
this, Uh, this person, I don't really so we'd have to find
out another powerful person. I don't know, but he's right. Let's go
fetch him and then we'll ask him ourselves. You think today, I mean
yeah today, right now, I'll piss it off though. Who gives a
ship? I don't care. I'll break him out myself. If you want,
I'll sneak in Grimshaw. We'll help you. I'm down. You want
as well, whizy to you. He's a salubriy. He didn't have a
third eye. Mm hmm. I don't always have like a full on eyeball
like mine. But nothing, Yeah, there was nothing there. I could
it have been removed? Well? I mean she did. I'm m forgive
me everyone. Uh. The taps are a part of the body. Taps
what caprison? Yeah? I had to undo her handy work in order to
get it out. How did he smell? How did he smell? Oh?
I have a I have I still have his blood, right, I
still have a vial of his blood? Is that correct? I hand it
over. If you were assuming that the caterer was cruel enough to give you
a bottle of the person you were about to save blood, then okay,
no, it's because I I had the tap, right, I was like
holding on to it, and yes, you absolutely do have a vial of
his blood. Okay, okay, I hand it over to Grimshaw. The
fuck is this his blood? You fucking took a vial of his blood.
It came out with the tap. It wasn't me, it was part of
you kept it, boy, I forgot I had it. She wasn't going
to drink eat it. I didn't drinking eating each other, That's what.
And that's very different. I pop it and I'm give it a smell of
my own whether I can figure out from this vial if this is Salubrey blood
or not. Just fucking taste it. It does smell surprisingly good. It
is definitely vampire blood and not mostel blood. Mm hmm, Lizzy, I
think you're gonna have to do stid boy, And I put the lid back
on the vial and put it in a pocket. Okay. So you want
to bust in there and and break Harry out, Well, you want to
carry you want to trap? Yeah, it could be a trap. You
want to take care of the caterer. All of a sudden thought, you
were kind of I don't know, buddy, buddy, Well, she's my
sire. Uh yeah, and she very good character so far. No,
it's okay. Sorry, what if that's not? Harry Grimshaw said he could
sneak in. Maybe he can tell I think just fucking someone tasted right now?
Yeah? Could you? Does it? Lake can be a celebris for
us to break him out? Well, no, I'll go and get it
out. But you can not him then it's probably a trap for me.
Yeah, you shouldn't. He had way to the information. I can,
I can. I can work through this. You just tell me why suddenly
you want to turn on your sire. I glance at Beth and then back
to the waitress again. She gave me a mission, okay, to get
Sophia the sheriff, either kill her or bring her into the family. Okay,
and I didn't do either of those things. Okay, what is there
still time kill you? Well? Originally it was all about make your own
decisions. But now since I've talked to Harry, I can tell that she
I mean, she told me to get out, so she's never spoken to
me like that before. And listen, you go into her baby, it's
the most fucked up shit you've ever seen in your goddamn life. And I
okay, teris now Okay, I'll flush shape. I'll literally make your mouth
into a tap and hang you upside down for an eternity. How about that?
And then we'll see that's okay, great, just normal. I guess
I just don't see a way do we need Harry. It's not about whether
or not we need Harry Daris. I told him, I we don't know
where this gene is. How strong is this gene? I have no idea.
He said she was a friend, Josh, I just want to make
absolutely sure. He did say she was the friend, right, yeah,
okay, I just want to make sure before I start spounting that up.
Said she was old, she was a friend. When I told him that
an ancient had been risen, he suggested her. So, I mean she's
old, she's lit a lot of blood? Oh much, God, three
days need like four thousand, she's that old. I have, Well,
a caterer is sitting on a lot of bad. I was just thinking that
if we want to fucking do this, why don't we do it? If
we want to get Harry out, why don't we just use all the blood
at the fucking a e C and raise a god, A god raised the
friend. That's how fucking old is she? I do even know if what
you're saying is true? And who is this gene? And who does she
work for or belong to? Do you even know what clan she is?
No? I don't. But she was friends with Harry. And if we're
trusting Harry, why are we don't even know who he is? Addie,
I don't know. She'll give me the while. No, please, What
does it matter if he's salubri or not dearious, because then we don't know
if we can trust what he said. If he's a salubery, he's a
good chance. It is right, he's got a point. He's in her
basement, not giving you a taste of his blood. It's very moorish.
He's not doing it to get his rocks off. He's doing it to find
out if he's the person you're looking for. It's like a pinky drop.
And then when he finds him and we're trying to bust him out, and
Darius decides he wants a let him sip more. I want to read a
fucking salubriy I do it right now? All right, all right, sometimes
you don't have a fucking choice. Give it the light again. She does
weird shit? Can you tell what does that mean? I don't. I
don't know. I've seen you do magic, you do mental shit. You
must be able to tell whose blood this is or what blood it is.
Let's let's just say for a second that it's not Harry. It doesn't take
away the fact that the caterer wants me fucking dead now, probably, and
that she's sitting on it to get you to raise this gene for her.
Maybe jeans. Yeah, it's possible counter weapon for feet is isn't that it's
a big bad smeat so? Or maybe it's a big tremare and this other
effectors coming in here trying to get us all riled up. Well, no,
she tried to burn down the fucking chantry, then I'm sure she wouldn't
summon a tremare. Also, why would she be tricking me and us?
First of all, she didn't even know that we're in us. Second of
all, who are we to even be on her radar, on anyone's radar?
That's kind of our deal, right, is that no one knows about
us, and no one gives changed. When somebody burned a building down,
didn't she all change? These were the ones that affect her plays off.
Yeah, all right, what's the other option? Vampire renters breaking the mask
plade and nobody wants to do that. Yeah, we either summon a really
old vampire or we'd break them out great and get the hunter's help. I
know someone in the vampanthers. Okay, but I thought everybody was on the
same page except for Darius and I about that would be a bad idea.
Is it possible that this is a trap for years? Yeah? Maybe?
Who the fuck is the Sophia person? Can't we just pick her up and
take her to the caterer and then all's well a metha Okay, I gave
her a phone. Okay, she's meant Oh that she's not fucking crazy,
strong or nothing. Great, we can just pick her up for you,
drop her off at her doorstep. Then you guys are tight again, right
Yeah? And then I mean, anyway will not give her more strengths.
I don't thinks so. And Sophia doesn't want to be a part of the
family. If that's the plan, then wouldn't she's one of you? No,
then that means that she was. That means this isn't a trap,
which means my boy, Harry is down there being bled every second. Sheriff
drop her off and you you'll get Harry. I'll get in there and without
anyone seeing me anyway, didn't Vasa say you met my sheriff? Yeah?
He did. What are you thinking? Well, if if they really did
burn down the chantry then and Vasa was willing to help us anyway. Yeah,
but if we give his sheriff, no, I'm saying the opposite.
I'm saying we get Assa and his shriff's help to take down the A C
Pree Harry. I could just fucking boon a. See. Yeah, but
we want to get Harry out, and there'd be waste of all that blood
if we're not going to try to summon Jane with it or whoever? Can
you do it today? Lake? Did you start the ritual now? If
we try to go bust them out, Yeah, I've got a stockpile we
would probably use. We still don't know this at the club too. Yeah,
but if we're gonna trust, we have to pick someone. We have
to make a decision. We still don't know if it's I think it's a
pretty safe assumption that it's Harry. Let's just take faceword. Okay, in
a direction took. Look, look, look, make a deal with me.
We summon this fucker and it's not who we think it is, or
they don't want to help us or whatever. We can still break the masquerade,
all right, So we summon the friend, then the old friend,
and if that old friend isn't good enough, I don't really want to summon
Kine, but that's still another option. But if this plan fails, we
fucking break the masquerade and we take care of the ship. All right.
All right, let's get a lot of blood. I've got a fair bit.
How much do you think? Yeah? Uh, do I know?
What I know? I have any idea? Also? Would I know?
Because I've been inside that club a couple times. We were also inside her
warehouse. Yeah, the waitress knows that there's probably about thirty people lining the
walls of the basement, and then probably a stock of various blood bags,
and plus everybody who's in the in the club. Yeah. Look, just
because they eat, they doesn't mean they aligned. She's the only food shop
in fucking town. When the fuck do you care? Every vampire matters?
You fucking told me that fack the friend beck it let's just fucking take the
place. Yeah, all right, you're a fast he's fucking strong. Even
if it's a trap, We've got whatever the fuck Lake is now. Yeah,
she's a fucking beast. I whip out my phone and I'm going to
text uh vasa. Uh. I think I say found who burns your chauntry?
I'm sure you already know. Oh no, And then I say we're
gonna throw a party with a winky face. I want to come question mark.
I think you get I think you get a message back being saying be
more specific. Christ's sake takes all the fucking fun out of it. Oh,
I don't want to say, we're going to take out the caterer.
Yeah, fuck it all right, Uh caterer wants your sheriff dead. We're
gonna take out the caterer. You want in? There's probably a big pause,
and then I'm in fuck yeah, wow okay. But it is followed
by a message that says, what do I get for my help? I
will at that moment tell everybody what's happening. You're like, all right,
he says he's in, but he wants something in return. The fucking wants
something done. Yeah, how about help with feet is not just our problem?
Do we need his sucking help? Yeah? I think so. You
asked him if he was in he said, ay, doesn't he get something
out of it already? Yeah? Help with fetus? Also America every time?
Yeah, you know what? Fuck that? Okay? So then I
text back, uh the laughing cry face emoji, and then I say,
uh, she wants you dead. She burns your chauntry, she wants your
sheriff dead. She is a thorn in the ventury side, a thorn in
the camarilla side. Need I go on be there at seven? And then
I just done. You don't get a reply. Yeah, anything, we're
helping him? Yeah, yeah, okay, let's go. It's just a
fucking camarilla. You've got to get something for me. Yeah, fucking pricks.
All right, let's fucking roll. Wait, how do you roll?
What the fuck do you do? All I'm seeing you do is fucking cry
in a corner and now have a panic attack. Do I need to protect
you? Or can you do something? I pull out my bretta and just
wiggle that and say I got this, that's all right, I'm my name.
Then all right, hey we disappear, So maybe just disappear when we
get there. Yeah, I'll tell you where to find Harry. I'll give
you more information you lost create a distraction. I can hope I can come
with you because you might need help get him out. All right, there's
no other reason why you want to go. Kid, I can't make you
invisible. You know you can go fucking invisible. Well, I can kind
of hide real good. All right, there's a difference between ideen and going
invisible. Let's just say it's then can we just narratively say that I go
suddenly very quickly, and I'm sure to all of you it looks like I
am now invisible, but that is not the case. Like if if anyone's
not fully paying attention, like those of you who are, know that she's
over the other side of the bar, but she's definitely not where she was.
She's hidden. She's invisible. Oh man, GM question yes, uh,
like mechanics question. If I were to if I were to vicissitude myself
into looking like a totally different person, yes, would the caterer be able
to recognize me as me? That would probably essentially no, unless you go
up and talk to her, Okay, and then like you'd have to pretend
to be someone else, which would be a harder test, but visually you
would just look I would just look like a rando. Okay, okay,
I have my ways of becoming invisible. Right, Well that's good. Okay,
So anyone who can't be invisible speak now you know. Yeah, that's
all right, he doesn't need to be invisible. Okay, So what's the
plan here, darres. You're gonna go in, stir up some ship,
start a distraction, and then we come in or what? All right,
sounds good to be I'm gonna stop buying get party hats. Yeah, I
believe way to Yeah, I think it'd be pretty good. Yeah, okay,
I'll be back and then I just immediately am like gone before I Yeah,
and can I use an ability to come back quickly? Or or can
I just go get party hats and come back If you want to like do
this instantaneously, that's going to require a rascheck, but like, yeah,
otherwise I can just go and I'm back in like two minutes or something like
that. All right, I won't rouse for it since we're about to go
into battle, but yeah, come back with some fucking party hats and fucking
what are those poppers and ship you know what? You find a corner shop
nearby the the horse, and there's just this bored looking guy and he's like,
got a party corner with rappers. Yes, perfect, I do exactly
that. I get the I get the Yeah, I get the party hats
and I get streamers and all the like poppers and bullshit. Yep, h
m hmmm. I would like to change are we we're doing like the preparent
right now? Right? So I would like to start changing my appearance.
Yeah, okay, you no time pressure here, so the difficulty is zero.
Okay, great, So yeah you get change. Yes, you get
a number of changes equal to your role. And you also need to dor
rass check okay, grass check. First, you don't get hungry, okay,
and you make three significant changes to yourself. Okay, what do you
look like now? I'm a brunette. Now I m hmm. Maybe change
my height, so I think maybe I'm taller. And I'm gonna give myself
a like a like not a prominent nose, but a very different looking nose,
like I feel like a nose really face. Yeah, so I'm gonna
give myself a pretty different looking nose on the breath and well no, because
the hair and then the height and then the nose is three. So yeah,
and then I'll probably just like browse or hair, I'll probably just draw
my brows into a different way, like into a different shape, and then
I don't know, do my makeup to be slightly different. Would you like
to make any preparations for a fight or anything like that? Like you can
change where your physical dots are you make yourself stronger or more dextrous, or
by moving one dot or yeah, let's say one dot between them if you
want to be more dexterous or yes, so sorry, just quickly mechanically,
which dots can I change over? Like I can take out strength, dexterity
and stamina? Yeah, oh yeah, you can make yourself ugly now and
add one dot to strength stamina. Okay, well I'm going to do that.
I'll do that. That also helps with the ext for not a bit.
Yeah, okay, Patre looks uh the waitress? Sorry, oh yeah,
looks very different, like yeah, it's she's she's changed shape entirely,
still looks me. Do you get taller? Normal? I did? Now?
They grow up? Does anyone want to do anything else? Before you
go around by the entrance. Do we want it to be crowded or not?
The a C Club people are scott that if they don't want to fight,
That's not what I'm asking. Do we wanted to be full of mortals
or not? Okay, okay, then I'm not going to do the thing
I was gonna do. All right, cool, I am ready to go
when you are. All right, everyone, Yeah, let's fucking go.
Let's go. I think everyone just makes their ride directly to the ae C
Club. Yep, Oh boy, it's really quiet. Everyone notices the same
thing, just like last time. You're all going in the front door.
Either before we go in, I step away from everybody and I will unseen
passage. Yep. All that requires is aroused. Check you do get hungrier,
and even though no one knows where and they wouldn't be able to find
grim, sure you will smell the slight tinge of blood on the air.
And then I wipe it away from the iron cast it into a dream.
Yep. That was the sound of it being cast into the dream. All
right, I'll go in. Yeah, okay, wait, I fucking put
a party hat on him. There you go. How do I look fucking
sparkling, and I'm gonna walk up to the bouncer on the door. Oh
yeah, you walk up to the bouncer and this guy's like, hey,
can I see your ID? I grab his face and I throw him through
the door. Mm hmm, strength plus brawl? Is he kindred? No?
Okay, you make an entrance for yourself. Darius burst through these doors
of glass and words and metal, and you see him roll halfway across the
dance floor. Does anyone want to dance? It's my fucking birthday. There's
one guy that everyone else would recognize. But yeah, he steps off.
It's like, the fuck you doing? I remember you? Darius? Why
are you here? You're gonna go get you a fucking bitua Ah, let
me fucking help you. And I throw him up the stairs more throwing.
Yeah, that's a strength rule. He is kindred. While this is happening,
I'm gonna ask uh faith, I'd like to throw him. How the
fuck do I get to Harry? Okay? So through her office there's this
bookshelf. Yeah okay, and I relay how the caterer opens up the bookshelf
and goes in and it's completely black down there. So you've got to bring
some sort of light or something, because otherwise you won't see. He's at
the very back on the left, right on the right. Okay. And
does he know we're coming? No, he doesn't know that we're coming right
now. But I told him I would get him out, so okay,
hopefully he believed me. But okay, keep everybody distracted up here. Okay.
And the man lands against the kterurer's office door, and then you see
her pop out, looking furious. What the hell is going on occurring?
Yes, okay, it in Darius. Are you here the party? Oh?
Yeah? And I pick up a barstor throw it at her. Okay,
She like, are you trying to hurt her with this bustle? No,
I'm just trying to piss her off, to be honest, but I
am. I am literally throwing a bastool at her. Okay, you throw
a barstool like rockets, She dodges, and then you watch as she begins
to burst the seams of her jacket and grow in hulking out and yeah,
she transforms in like ten seconds from a normal looking woman to this monstrous hulk
beast with huge claws and kind of pop marks like the if anyone has tripped
phobia, you know what I mean? Her entire skin gets that formation as
it seems to harden, and she jumps off of the balcony and puts a
dent in the dance floor. May I use my super speed to try to
get to where she told me to go? And down and downstairs? Yes,
you can, distracted, do a rouse check, you get hungrier,
do a dex athletics to see if you can get up there, just like
bounce past people faster, fast enough to get through. Okay, And should
I just use my super speed ability? I think that's a rouse check.
You're check. So basically you just do the dex athletics and more. I'll
see how far you get. Five successes. You get to the caterer's office
door, where you're supposed to be, But that is when you are blocked
by the guy who was thrown up here. What the fuck are you doing?
And he's gonna he's gonna go for you. That's fine. Are you
gonna try and get around him? You're gonna try and fight him? What's
there? Yeah? I would like to well, because I'm I'm assuming that
I show up and he's surprised to see me since I went so quickly,
and if he's lunging at me, there are stairs behind me. Yeah.
Uh, it's not directly behind, but you're basically on the edge of the
balcony. You greatly. Yeah, I want to. I want to use
my speed and his momentum to throw him off the balcony. Okay, that
sounds like a strength athletics role to me versus his tack role. May I
argue you decks instead of strength because I'm not strong, but I'm fast since
I'm using his tik comen Oh my god. Okay, Well, and see
how he does oh wow, Yeah, suddenly he has he has like a
horrid like bony, mottled claw hand and he swipes out you clumsily. You
don't hurt him, but you do hoist him up from his belt and flip
him over the edge. Cool, Darius. A dude lands near you,
I'd like to catch him and use him as a bat to hit the You
can try like to. Yes, she just landed on the bottom floor right
amidst all of us. Caterer. Yeah, the care raid is okay,
and so did this dude sort of Yeah. Yeah, that's let's say strength
for all minus two for dude usage. Okay, do I get plus one
because it's kindred attacking a kindred? Yeah? Yeah you do so minus one?
Yeah, minus one three, seven successes various. You know what it
feels like to be run over by a train. M Her face squarely meets
your jaw and you go from vertical horizontal class a bunch of follows through.
Yeah, and you take seven minus three. There's four, you take two
superficial damage. Oh shit, it wasn't going to be fun. Yeah,
you take three. Let's say three. Let's go with three because she is
very strong and has weapons. Yeah. I don't know what you're here for,
Darius, but let's dance love. I don't even know why I am
you, doesn't really matter. Let's go. You always look tasty to me.
Ah, you look like shit, though, I'm a goddamn gorgeous fucker,
and I will end you. As she charges out at Darius, everyone
who is, everyone who is sneaking, Let's do that a bit. Next,
I am calmly weaving my way through whoever is around, and around people
and up towards then all this stuff is going on, and then I'm walking
up Connie's like blitzed up there, but probably the same path, right,
Oh yeah, yeah, she's she's already and sure there day Winsory is.
I'm following, but like few steps behind, like it just kind of moseying
my way because I want to help keep an eye on the door when these
guys are down there. I'm completely oubfiscated by the way you are. Yes,
I am not following you. I am walking on my own way.
No idea. Why just happens to be in the same direction. It is
in the same direction. I'm guessing you'll both go to going to Skater's office
in that case, to uh not bump into anyone and give yourself away.
Grim. Sure that sounds like a deck stealth since there is the breaking Yeah,
i'd say so, right, I get this. We've got a speciality
in breaking in. See. He thinks that oh people can do is run
fast and fight and stuff. But I'm a proper spy who I can find
things. And that's just been completely fucking useless to him. Right, he's
a deck stealth. I did and plus one, Oh shit, yeah,
you weave your way around the Caser's hulking form and various other goons and Lackey's
trying to like surround Darius and like block important exits that sort of ship.
And you make your way up to the top of the balcony. Faith,
how are you getting h I am kind of just keeping an eye on the
fight that's going on and kind of just circling and keeping I'm trying to stealth,
but I'm a person who was not invisible, so I have to do
it like a much more ridiculous way where I'm actually trying to pay attention to
who can see me and all that stuff. That sounds like the same role
the ends that stealth, unless you have other ideas, No, I don't
think so. I'd like to just get up up to the uh to the
office and then keep an eye So I yeah, I'm not fighting anyone on
my way there. Well, three successes. You manage to take an opportunity
when people have like left the staircase alone to start running up. You are
up there, but you've given yourself away, okay, given myself away,
and that people can see me or given okay, it doesn't seem to have
given away any indication that they know that you are face Okay, good,
okay, cool, Like what are you doing? So I followed Darius in.
So when the keterer lands down here? Uh, did she just kind
of land like right in front of us, right in front of Darius on
the down floor. Yeah, okay, so if she is within my reach,
I'm sorry. I'm just imagining this skeletal, horrific figure with fucking party
hat on and I'm dying. Wait are we all wearing parties? Yeah?
I got party hats for everybody. Yeah. Yeah, I wouldn't have cared.
I just would have put the hat on. And I'm clearly made up
like a skeleton. This this you know, can see my mask and you
can see some makeup, so you know, maybe I go to clubs like
this, who knows. But at any rate, I will pull my wrist
up to my face and with my right incisor slice along my wrist and pull
some vita in my right hand and rub it all over both of my hands
and lunge for the caterer to grab her with both of my hands and attempt
withering spirit. Dare victim channeling raw entropy that decays the spirit and cause the
severe damage, possibly preventing the victim's return as a wreath if they are obliterated.
Let's see how that goes. This is going to require two roles,
okay, one for you to grab onto her and then touch Okay, yes,
yeah, I don't have to like hold her. Okay, I'll give
you an option. Then it's still have to do the role. Yeah,
you still have to do the first role, but you are if you lose,
you still succeed in touching her because just the like fingertip types, but
you will take damage if you lose. Gotcha. Okay, So what's my
first role? Dex athletics. Okay, one success. Okay, let's see
what a kater has to say about that. You take two superficial damage.
Okay. As she's not paying attention to you, you are not supposedly the
oldest vampire in the room, but she does notice that you're kind of creeping
up on her and just kind of backhand you with these huge claws of hers.
But that's enough. You see the hand coming and you just put your
hands out. Yep, what is your role versus hers? I haven't looked
at this power, right, so this is my oblivion power. It is
not a ceremony, so it's an oblivion power. Cut hands in DTA tauch
a victim channel raw entropy decays the spirit. So yeah, I guess it's
my oblivion. I guess you decide oblivion plus what. Oh okay, I've
got a stamina plus discipline queued up as if that's what I rolled last time
for one of these. But I'm not sure if that is what I do.
Hithering spirit a bit. But you do resolve plus oblivion, and she
does resolve plus a cult or fortitude. Okay, resolve plus discipline. Here
we go, modifiers zero, here we are, Oh five, success is
nice. Let's see what the caterer gets. Three, she's gonna she's gonna
get three or less? Come on, come on, come on? Will
it into existence oblivion? Okay, let's say. Yeah, I know what
her dice pool is for this. Definitely, there we go. Oh bit,
shut up? Oh wait, I'm so sorry. This is like Josh's
characters that he made. But she did threatened kitten. It's she's an NPC.
Yeah, okay, but I know what that, Josh, I know,
I know what that means. I definitely haven't enjoyed playing the ker It's
fun. She's been amazing. Two seasons of Oh no, no, I
feel sad to me I will use that of the entire Josh cinematic universe.
Yeah, it's a shame that you won't get to do that thing with her
in the next episode. But it's fine. What I'm joking. She was
gonna eat. Yeah, So I think she goes to shove me, and
my hand grabs on to her elbow and slides off. I get pushed back,
so she succeeds in me not you know, attacking her, but I
touch her and just ribbons of like dark purple and black start swirling around coming
from me, wrapping around her as she is encased in whatever the fuck this
awful shit is that she just tangled herself up by threatening faith, do one
last thing, do a browse check. SHO, got it. If it's
a one or a ten, bad things will happen. But no, you
get hungrier, Okay, So I just want to let everyone know exactly what's
just happened. She does two points of aggravated damage per march in I'm going
to get the ktra to do her first ever reroll so she doesn't immediately Dune
Lake is O P What the fuck is? What? Dude? Why?
I understand now why she's like why don't we just go fight the fucking few
days. It's fine, I get it now, Yeah, because she feels
like a jacket. Why don't you just tell your sire ye? Come on?
Why not? It makes sense, It's all the right is on an
animation of just like walking through lots of people, and as she walks past
them, they just turned to the dusk. Yeah yeah, okay, so
the k tra does not immediately look like a hollow husk of a woman.
However, everyone notices and she starts to like slouch and move slower and like
she's starting to develop hollow eyes and uh like a deathly pallor this whatever the
fuck just happened, whatever Beth just did. The caterer is now in a
lot of trouble. We should go back to Connie. Okay, I would
like to descend this ladder as quickly as I can. I will pull out
the bookcase, like super quick. It's just hidden under there. You pull
up a thing. It's not locked. Okay, I descend down. I
pull out my phone, use my phone might to navigate around to exactly where
she told me he would be. Do I see a lot of people down
here, A lot of like vamis you see like forty people hanging from the
walls or all you do is catch glimpses from this rubbish light you've got,
but like there's definitely old blood smelling here, and like they have a faint
groan of the victims hanging from the wall. But in your light, you
do see a guy who stands up, you Harry, Yeah, yeah,
okay, great, your rescue's here. Have a party hat. I just
put a fucking party had on him through the bars if I can. Oh,
he's not he's not even in a thing. Okay, yeah, here,
have a party hat. I just to stick a party hat on him.
I'm like, we're busting you out courtesy your new friend Faith. You
ready. He just stares at you, gobspa. I'll take that as a
yes. Okay, Can I get any of these otherfuckers out here? How
long would that take? It's can you flesh craft them? Can you take
the taps out of their mouths? They're not gonna last? What if I
what do you mean? They're not gonna last if I take the taps out?
If they're gonna die. So they're gonna die if you do that,
Like if you pull them off the hooks, like these people have been here
for months that week, they can't move themselves out. Oh. I just
had a terrible thought, Harry, and I know we just met, But
what if what if we put the caterer in her entire staff down here and
then they could nurse themselves back to help. What do you think? I
don't think I'm in a position to have an opinion on this. You're always
in a position to have an opinion. All right, let's go. That's
fucking insane. Okay, great, awesome. Then that means it's a good
plan. Do you want to can you walk? I'll be fine, Okay,
you don't look fine, No, I will be there, okay,
and then I'll sort of guide him kind of out a little bit. Do
I run into Grimshaw now, because now I have to wait for Harry to
keep up. Yes, you absolutely run into Faith and Grimshaw. Oh,
Faith is at the door. I think I think I was up at the
door. Yeah, and I can't see Grimshaw. So unless Grimshaw says anything,
if I'm at the I'm at the top of some stairs. Yeah,
yes, I probably wouldn't myself, to be honest. Yeah, okay,
I think can make it to the to the office, and you see,
like Connie has already moved the ship out of the way. There's a hole
and floor. I continued to remain. I don't know what's going on with
the cater and I don't really want her to know there's another Salubrity in town.
Yeah, it's honestly my choice here, but I say that she's got
this hand. Alder will double check that Harry is a Salubray, but I
think I probably I don't know if that's possible for me to do, but
he doesn't. She said he didn't have three eyes, and usually we have
three eyes, even if there's a third eyes, something like mine is just
almost a duplicate eye, right, that doesn't way do you remember that it
took some time for you to get your third eye. Oh, he's just
a baby. He hasn't completed his thing yet. Okay, potentially that's where
your mind was would go. But otherwise, there's no indication that this guy's
a Slubray. I haven't gm really quickly how just out of curiosity. I'm
assuming I know that the Camarilla have ways of you know, when mortals find
out about shit, they can cover it up fairly well. What would happen
if, for example, the police were to come and see everything in this
basement. Would it get covered up? Would these people get saved or killed?
It's a fifty to fifty. They'd either get moved so they could be
used somewhere else, or they would be killed. Those are the only two
options you can imagine. The camera rella would not let these people live freely.
I record the downstairs before I tell Harry to go up the ladder.
I record everything downstairs on my phone and I keep it and then I'll go
up the stairs. Right, Okay, Yeah, it takes a bit for
you to climb up this ladder, especially with Harry in tow. So let's
go to faith. Yes, I've run attention to yourself and someone you recognize
as one of the Katerra's uh kids coming at you big stick with a big
stick yep questions like a night stick. Yeah, okay, question for you.
If I were to I'm trying to figure out what I can do while
still not looking like myself. If I obviously be like transformed into some sumeatsy
bullshit with like my hands and stuff away, they would know that it was
me. Right. There isn't like a ton of other sweet see like walking
around never never heard of any other sweet see. Okay, is there anything
around me? Like a chair or like, because they're like a anything?
No, like weapons? Yeah? Probably up here? Yeah okay, yeah,
I'll just grab the nearest thing I guess that I could use as a
weapon, and then you grab that You're gonna try and beat the crap out
of this guy. Yeah, I guess, so you have other options.
You could run away or something. Oh well, okay, well maybe I
hold on. This is the hardest day. How do I, uh,
what if I Here's the thing what I'm thinking about is if I walk into
the office, the guy's just gonna follow me, and we're trying to get
someone out of the office. So I think in that case, I will
grab a weapon and then just start backing away from the office and then kind
of like disc leading him away from from that place. Yeah yeah, okay
dexterity plus subterfuge okay, oh fuck yeah, uh no, nothing. He
like you managed to keep him at bay with the legs of this chair,
and you like turn around and he like advances towards you, but he's not
going towards and you've made space they will be able to escape without problem.
Okay, at least down the stairs because the caterers at the bottom. And
she is going to try and kick the shit out of Lake. Uh not
if I've got anything to say about it, go for it. Uh yeah,
she can see that. That's what she's going to try and do.
Hit me like a freight train. I'm going to hit like the entire fucking
station, and I'm going to rouse and I'm going to punch you so hot,
so hot. Success with my lethal body it doesn't work on Kindred.
But do you want to use your potents? Oh? Is it? Which
is the potence one? Yeah? You still need the rowse check and you
can add your potens dots as extra damage if you succeed. Okay, yeah,
Strength Strength brawl plus one one. Have you rolled anything else this campaign?
I'm interested to know. Yeah. I hold mathetics once and I don't
one. Well done. Then means he's doing what he needs Do Can I
reroll three of those? You absolutely can. If he rolls anything else,
he has to lose hit points, he takes aggravated damage. If he uses
like any of the mental traits, he takes one aggravated damage. Yeah.
The caterer is going to come at you. You four or five? Uh
yeah, she's not interested in being held back. She does look very hungry.
H m hm uh oh uh you would. Yeah, you try and
like cause any damage and you impact onto this hard carapace essentially. Okay,
yeah, do you wanna do something about not getting murdered? Mike? Yeah,
So the characher is coming at you. Yeah, if she's coming at
me, I will got two options here. Let me weigh them briefly.
Uh huh. I'm gonna hide from her. I am a sort of a
paper tiger here, so I'm going to shadow cloak so I can seal my
presence and make myself more frightening. And it adds to dice to my stealth
check. Oh hell yeah, okay, so yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna
try to hide. What Yeah, do a X stealth plus your two?
Gotcha X plus a modifier of two mm hmm. She's gonna see if she
can find you. There we go. Holy crap, I don't spent that
XP Moore. Yeah you did, and it paid off because just barely you
melt into the shadows and she she absolutely would you know that just from the
kind of love tap. She gave you a terrified of her and reality,
and you see her writhing around, swinging arms wild to try and get you.
Just yells into the dark corners of the club, fucking Shadow Weaver,
I'll get you. I know where you live. You doing. I'm right
here, I thought you. Later you couldn't say I'm not making a sound.
I am doing everything I can to be. No one knows where Lake
is gone. Yeah, everyone who wants to get past the caterer and out
of here, because I think Darius. At this point, you realize that
Connie and uh Faith are at the top of the stairs making their way down
past this person that Faith is tied up with, trying to distract until everyone's
done. Well, how fucked up does she look? Uh? Not at
all? Okay physically aside from this gaunt, hungry look she has on her
Okay, boy, okay, I don't know Grimshaw's there to take Harry out
though, right, It's just me and to reveal myself. Yeah, that's
fine. I just want to make sure that I know I'm the only one
that can take him out of here. I can't help with this fight.
Probably know he's around though, Yeah, but I'm not going to call out
to him. I don't want to reveal that he's here. Okay, yeah,
I will, yes, I will roll to try to get by.
Yep, that is ex athletics. Actually, I will ask Harry, do
you want to get out now? Or do you want to help help?
What? I want to leave? All right, Well, we're taking out
your captor here and her sire high faith. Hi, I'm I'm gonna I'm
gonna just say revenge in the way, and I want to leave. Okay,
yeah, all right, cool, I'll take him out. You stay
here, Yeah, okay, I will try to do that. Hi.
Oh okay, now, Okatra has been tied up with a lot of stuff.
Oh, she's gonna be so pissed when she seeses me. Yeah.
Uh, you get passed. She's wildly flailing and you're too fast for her
other lackeys, so you like basically pull Harry the whole way across the uh,
the whole way across the dance for like you're almost at the door.
Okay, I'm going to stay and help her because she doesn't really have any
options. Either the caterer goes or the cater is going to come back for
her. So let me give you an address and she can go to and
you can be safe. And I will give him the address to the white
Horse, I handed to him. Can you wait for us there? Wait
for you there? Got it? Easy? Got it? Yeah? Take
my bike, it's that one right there. And then I pull my keys
out and I'll toss in the keys. You know how to ride? Are
you okay? I'll figure it out here. Great, he's safe, and
then I immediately go back in to help. I really want to roll for
riding. Yeah, I'm going to try and trail him. I probably won't
let him ride on a bike. That was his response. I was gonna
introduce myself to him outside. He's on the bike. You could definitely hop
on there with him. Oh no, no, I brought my car.
Oh okay, okay the whole time I've had a car. I'm not one
of these fucking psychos on a bike. I've got a nice car. Dude,
watch him around, Oh grim short, you're following him outside? Do
a do two roles for me? Wits awareness and wits or wits help for
skate? All right, with awareness and we skate. Okay, you didn't
the restaurant, I was scrolling and click which bob the skate is ooh four?
Okay, so you notice that same guy who was just in the pub,
that's Jones standing across the street. Fuck, we did contact him,
right? So yeah, h and am I still here? Am I assuming
you showed yourself while we were doing the bike? Are you going to drive
him? Or have I already fucked off? I didn't think we were outside
when you had that conversation. I wouldn't have it inside. Oh okay.
So at this point, Harry and Grimshaw's about to leave on vehicles, and
this is versus Grimshaw's wits up for scape ill done. Thank god, he
doesn't see you. I drop it, though, you drop it because Harry,
you know, on a bike? Yeah okay, you you know that
he's not noticed you un until you drop it. Yeah, I'm looking at
any better first. But then I speak to unless that's fucking blows over and
eat. He's not going to blur over. And like people I speak to
to Harry and say a nice Tomata, I'm Grimshaw, and uh, just
leave the keys, that's mine. I point to her. Cool, let's
get the fuck out of here. Yeah, I probably don't decent, but
like affordable. I changed cars every year. Oh wow, I think that
was last year. I've got an ALDTDRS in black. At the moment,
I probably dress something. He already knows exactly what he's dying to know what
another's happened about. Brad, come on, Yeah, RSA would be nice
as well, but again probably two years ago. And yeah, I point
to my car and I yeah, I mean as soon as he sees me,
he would see my third eye as well. I want to move towards
my car while watching Vasa. Is he not doing anything? Is he alone?
Vassa is alone, and he seems to have split attention between what you're
doing, which he's noticed, but he's not paying attention to fully. He's
just kind of glancing over at you, making sure you're not going to come
at him or something stupid. But he is deadly focused. And you can
see his hands move, moving in like strange circles in the air. You
see little flecks of blood. What that means? Blood magic? I can't
maybe I have any I I have no idea what he could possibly be doing.
Do you have any dots in a cult one? Oh? Yeah,
intelligence occult? Then just see if you want to know figure out what's yet
he's actually doing. Yeah, I just in case he's up to something that
was going to fucking blow up the club or something. I don't know what
he's up to, but uh on success, it's blood magic maybe Okay.
I am going to say to Harry as he's getting into the I unlock my
car, and as he's getting in the passenger side, I say, do
you know who are the Sheriff's lap dark is a tremor bastard? That is
Sophia is Sofia here? No? No, no a man, thank fuck
for the well that man over the world. Yes, I know that guy.
Can I leave? Well? Wait, why is he doing blood magic?
It's never a good thing. I just throwing my keys. You know
where you're going? He throws you Connie's case. Yes, Connie told me
to leave that way and not that way, so he doesn't know where you're
going. Okay, And then I run back into the club. You run
back into the club where I'm assuming the caterer is facing down Darius. All
of that faith, yeah, like fighting still just in case something needed.
Okay, Well, in that case, the caterer wants to take out Darious
right now, everyone else what do you want to do? I like to
shoot her. Yep, absolutely, so I would like to take the hit
so everyone else can get an opening. Can I do that? Yes?
That sounds like a stamina athletics roll to me. I will rouse because I
rarely want to make sure everyone else can do what they can do. Hungry.
Okay, yeah, you get your extit shoe dice three dice? I
think what what? What was overruning sy athletics plus stamina plus three for being
a old bastard? You mean Darius? Right? Sure? Oh good god?
Yeah, if you want? How many three? Can I read all?
Three? One? Two? Okay, that that will work. You
do have a ten in there, so it could be could be a crip,
never know. Okay, two more successes, so you got four versus
the caterers six, Darius. She's not playing around anymore. You take the
hit and you kind of grab onto this hue like a foot across now with
claws on the end, and she just grabs your shoulder where you've braced and
it crushes into your bones. You take for superficial damage. Yeah, I
definitely shout out in pain, but hopefully that gives everyone the open opening.
Beautiful all right, Connie, do your shot? Can I shoot more than
once? Since I'm lightning fat? You can if you use your ability Okay,
which one on erring aim or the other one? Actually, you can't
shoot more than once, but you can use un airing name to essentially fire
off a volley and do a bunch of damage being able to doe Roger,
Roger, doll, dodge roll, make Roger, Pa, he's back down
the white Horse, down the white Horse. Okay, uh, oh my
god. Yeah, so, and I don't know. I know that guns
do extra damage, but I don't. Yes, your guns is plus three,
which is nice, happy a long time. You do four superficial damage
to her? Fuck? Yeah, no, you do three. She is
armored, damn it. How do we remove that armor? Is there a
way to strip that down? You could do some sort of cold shot to
basically tear it off of her or something. Okay, I'll do that next
time. Then, okay, got it. I'd actually like to shout at
Connie when I come running in. Yeah it as soon as I come running
in and try and figure out what's going on, and Connie is still on
the ground floor. Did you go upstairs again or now? Everyone's on the
dance floor, on the dance This is all happening within party hats within me
able to shout at them range, even though there's probably something. Yeah,
well, I'm basically the moment I walked in the door, I pulled out
my gun because I don't need to be up close to do it. So
we can just say that. You walk in and shout at me if you
want. If you're just inside the door anyway, my door or the other
door, you mean your door, the entrance door, right, oh,
then I will run in and immediately you take a shot and I probably jump,
and then I grab you and say, your man's outside the TRAMERI bastard.
Okay, it's something love magic. I don't know if he's helping or
not, but okay, okay, are you going with Harry? He's gone,
he stayed. Yeah, okay, thanks, I'll go outside. I'm
gonna go talk to us. I'll go with her because I don't think I
can do much here, all right. I don't think me shooting cracker little
bullets the wholk is going to help much. When you have Darius and the
literal embodiment of death, well you know, yeah, so I will step
out. Yes, you and Grimshaw step outside? Then, Faith, what
are you doing here? I'm gonna be stupid. I think I would like
to use eyes of the Serpent to make her to catch her gaze and keep
her gaze and keep her from doing anything else, so that I hold her
while these guys do their thing. Isn't that what I did by taking the
hit? Yeah, I'm curious about that too. He allowed. Yeah,
Darius gave you an opening to do whatever you want with essentially Okay, okay,
so you'll you'll get an advantage to do this because she's not moving around,
because she's currently using Darius as a rag doll, like holding on.
Okay in that moo. Yeah, in that case, I would like to
Vicissitude meet some weapons. I think like at this point, staying hidden,
there's nothing that I can do, Like, I can't, I can My
only powers are Sumititi powers, so like I can't do anything of use or
value in this fight, and I feel like we're already here, we're here
to end it, right, So okay, so yeah, may I roll
for that? Yes? Please? That's your protein and resolve, I think,
yeah, Rose, yes, okay, free successes, you grow claws
yeah, I believe you will have to take one point out of one of
your physical attributes to achieve this. I'll take out dexterity. Okay, is
there anything else you would like to do? It also comes at a cost
of a physical dot. Yeah I will. I will once again, like
make my skin hard like leather so that it's hard, harder for uh for
me to be scratched or injured. And I'll take that out of stamina.
Okay, that does decrease your health, just so you know it's reducing stamina.
Oh okay, then maybe I will do yeah, I'll do that.
I'll still do that. I'll take you do have armor, so I think
this reduces any damage you take by two okay, awesome, an extra two
okay, brilliant, and you do two extra damage because of the claws go
nuts. What are you doing now? Strut? Yes, okay, I'm
yeah, I'm gonna jump forward. Oh well that's one. Can I spend
the willpower? You cannot because you have three hunger dice. You can do
a rouse check. I'll let you do that if you want. Okay,
extra dice. Oh thank god, you get hungry. Roll roll to extra
dice. Okay, I just want to let you know that I'm at four
hunger right now, so I don't know how that impacts my ability to do
things. Makes you very sensitive to frenzy two D ten two extra successes.
Let's see how this does. Kterra is in trouble because of Darius's Oh it's
a at Okay, so I think I never remember what I'm supposed to do
on matches. So let's say that you get in there and yeah, you
manage to like start scratching at her. Her hide is basically impenetrable. You
know, you're like cutting away at it. You do very little damage.
Okay, Okay, is there anything you'd like to say to her? No?
No, no, yeah, okay, that's it for me. Okay,
I think there needs to be a deciding role to finish this off.
Who would like to make it Goarabie Lake. She's going to destroy her with
death magic? Yeah, like this, this is the position you're in if
you do not win something against her, She's in impeccable condition and will escape.
I'm basically I acted like a chew toy, so everyone else can do
stuff to her while she just tries to kill me. Mm hmm, yeah,
so these guys are not making any headway on her. That much obvious
from my vantage point here. Pretty much, I think I will go in
Okay, if I'm cloaked, can I move up to her in my shadows
unseen and touch her again? I would just like petch her angle or something.
Basically, I think yes. That would require a stealth check to get
around to her, though, because she knows she knows I'm here somewhere.
Yes, Okay, so I get plus two to my stealth still from being
in shadow gluk because she's being distracted by Darius. That was the whole p
So it's good. It's good to okay, Okay, So stealth plus you'll
have to remind me. Uh, let's do stealth plus dexterity if you're trying
to sneak up on her. Yeah, I'm trying to sneak up on her.
So I'll do stealth decks plus two plus two and you can do a
rouse check if you want an extra two dice, which might be the time
for it. Okay, so roll this and then rouse check. Yeah,
and then two extra dice. Let's see, very goods check. Here we
go, nice, okay, great to d turn being essentially pinned down,
so she is at a disadvantage from Darius and previous turns. But if she
wins this, she's going to get the fuck out of hair. Like she
gets the cre she looks rather like absolutely starving by the way. She's like
completely losing control. But as soon as she sees your shadows start to creep
in from the outside to mask where you're coming from, she keeps Darius like
and he hits a wall like halfway up and just fucking bolts and basically puts
a hole in the back wall. She is not interested in whatever you did
to her happening again, and all you hear as she runs away our yells
of you fucking traitor. You're not in my family anymore, and that means
one day I'll come back for you. As she's slowly getting quieter and further
away, it's not quite as intimidating as I might make it seem. Uh
yeah, I think all of you. I don't know if this is an
important thing to do, but just for history, everyone put a three dot
enemy in there. She didn't see me though, right, well, she
absolutely saw you. You're not invisible, You're just really fast. Oh yeah,
that's true. I did, everyone but Grimshaw. Ye, everyone but
Grimshaw put a three dot enemy in your floors, the infamy floor. Anyway,
she probably already vaguely knows who I am and wants as a Yeah,
wants me dead. I don't know exactly how that works, but I certainly
won't add it. Thank you very much. Yeah. Outside, Okay,
now, Connie, Grimshaw and Vasa. I'm doing the thing where I'm like
two feet behind Connie as she walked forward to make sure that she leads this
conversation, and there's crashes and things happening from behind us across the street.
We did what we needed to do. Your turn. I've been helping from
out here. Well, thank you very much doing what She won't be using
any of her abilities anytime soon. Fuck, okay, I much worse just
escaping. Wait she escaped? He points behind you. She got out the
front door. No, she went out the back. But it is there's
there's no doors anymore because a person right you just straight through the open doors
at the very back, demolished brick and mortar. Well fuck, okay,
you have taken a thorn out of my sight. Like you said, is
this where you give me the name m M. I expect delivery of the
silver Moon goods in the next few nights. But do you have a shopping
list of exactly what you're looking for? I can absolutely hand that over.
I have nothing if not effective. He pulls out a pad and starts writing.
Yep, he's so fucking weird man. Okay, and oh yeah,
his arm's still in a sling, so this is awkward for him. You
want do you want me to write it? And you just list them off
for me? He doesn't reply to that. I just take the pad then,
and the pen and I just all right go on, takes the pad
back and finishes his work. Look, I know you may be enjoying your
time in Manchester, but I am betting on you, at least hurting fee
days. So when I tell you that I've traced her bloodline down ten generations
to a thin blood called Kai Vesta, then you had better use that information
effectively. Okay, it's pure happenstance. Yeah, Sophia gave me the plot,
right, thank you? Good luck? Is that it? Yeah?
But where the fresh is this Kai? We'll figure that out. I suppose
he was right. I can tell you where he is as well. Oh
ship, Yeah, full of surprises, no offers, no, nothing,
was holding a lot of information for someone who's put a bet on us.
Couldn't have been much of a bet. You're not worth much to me.
And he looks at your forehead, Well maybe you are. I step in
front of him, but I facking thought, hmm, very protective. I
have no use for a Slouberry right now. Maybe one day. But I
tracked the carnage he left at our safe house through a bunch of dead vampire
hunters. What the vampire hunters have him at their little hide hole near the
university? When since when this was a few weeks ago? Now? Oh?
What a mess? Fucking Christ? Goodbye bye. He walks down in
Alloway. Oh and then he's gone. I don't know where the fun I'm
supposed to drop this ship off when I get it, Oh, Darius,
what are we going to do with this tin blood ship? Like a fucking
truck? Jesus Christ, kitten? Are you all right, Beth? Yeah,
I'm fine. Well yeah, you're never gonna fucking believe this. But
the blood we need is your fucking boy Kai. What? Yeah? Kai
is a descendant a fucking feet Yeah, and and now when you say,
boy, he who's part of our crew? I suppose, right, Darius,
he's rolling with you, right, had a horrible feeling there that this
was your son. He's not a son. He's a dickhead. I thought
he was dead. Well, so about that he didn't he didn't. Fuck
off, Darius. The hunters have n't. Josh, what time is it?
It's getting very close to sun up? Way or fucking Heidi hole,
I don't know. It's at the bottom of the list. Oh Jesus Christ.
Uh here address, it's nearly Could I get there in time? M
you would be risking sunrise, no doubt about it. One morning sight anywhere
near the lab they're hideout. Uh no, Okay, So we couldn't make
it back there in time. That would probably be No. The lab is
north of the river and the university is south of the city. Okay.
What does this mean? It means it's his blood that we need if we're
gonna, I don't know, use it in the original right magic shit like
option a summon gene or whatever. Well, that's a different option, right,
That's what we got all of the blood in the club for for this
gene. So we gotta we gotta take that blood. But Kai's blood can
raise them, can we? Odd? Uh yeah GM clarification just because I
am confused. I assumed that Kai's blood would help us raise another god.
But is Kai's blood going to help us fuck up her in some way?
I assumed it was Kai's fuck her up? Yeah, I think I would
suck her up. Kai's blood is the link to Free Days that you need
to do some sort of magic mm hmm, either against her or as a
connection to the locator spell or whatever. Vampires that are even older than Free
Days, and if you choose to go with ah someon older vampires than Few
Days. Lake is very much aware that it may not bring a physical being
into existence. It will beckon old vampires to wherever the source of their blood
is opposed to, you know, the other way around. It's what I'm
going to pull a vampire in this Wait what, No, you want to
give away our element of surprise. They've had him for fucking weeks. There
is I know him? What? Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You
know this guy, you think your friends, Yet he's had your boyo for
weeks. He ain't your friend. There's no way he knows. Well,
this should be interesting ten fucking years. Go ahead the car. I call
Williams stack m. It's an old phone number. You're not entirely sure if
it will work. You wait five rings and you hear it, pick up
no sound Hello? Is that your Darius? I like that? Are you
doing? I thought you'd died in Cardiff? Nah? No, had a
little bit of a rebirth. Actually, mm hmmm, why are you calling
me? Ah that I'll find you. I'd like to meet you. That
makes my job even easier. You've got something I want? What could that
possibly be? Aside from fire and stakes? I don't want to and give
it to you anyway. You can fucking try, but I will. Where
are you near the university. There's a an old community center abandoned. I'll
see you tomorrow night. Then not tonight, Oh you don't have time.
Shame tomorrow night, I won't be alone. Good? What the fuck was
that element to surprise? You're gonna tell him exactly when we're arriving, Yes,
and where he was and we already know where he is there is what
the fuck? I owe him this? You owe him a fucking heads up?
Yeah, all right, so you call him and you say, hey,
I'll arrange for tea tomorrow at whatever time, But it's not the time
that we're gonna go rescue your boyo. So I guess you guys gotta go
down fucking Kai. Will I go meet him? I don't fucking know we're
gonna go meet him? Wait what type of vampire hunters? Or these?
Are these good or bad? Or professional? Or nah? The silver Moon?
They're fucking nut jobs, right, so they know they're shit because they're
just mortals and they're hard. Can it be for us to slip by them?
They do? Useing HM, then the same job as Harry. You
create a distraction and we'll try and get your boy out. We could use
them, sure he wants me dead, but when you want very powerful v
bio dad, I thought we were all on the same page. That's breaking
the masquerade. They fucking know, they know, but the whole world doesn't
know. And if we ask them for help, that's what we're doing,
the whole world for help. We can just tell him where if the days
will be next to distraction in a fight, and what happens if they blast
that shit on the internet. That's what I'm trying to tell you, Darius.
If we side with the Hunters, which I don't know if I want
to do yet or not, I could still be on board with that,
then the whole world knows. But it's a decision we need to make together,
and we all need to decide. Look, we don't have to side
with them. You can't have your cake and eat it too, Darius,
If you don't mind, I think we should maybe get out of here.
Yeah. Fuck, there's going to be police, and then the son's coming
up, and I kind of want to see what happened with Harry. Yeah,
I told you the horse is ok Yeah, Connie her own case.
He took my car instead. Okay, yeah about that? You want to
let these people go? Or what can you do it? In the club?
I'm looking at Faith. Oh do you only care about amusement? I
can go do that. It'll take me a while. It took me a
long time. Maybe I could just I'll just go and I just walk in,
I go back into the club. How much time do we have before
sunrise? Will she be able to get this done if she stays here at
the club for the day. With the day, I'm willing to do that.
Yeah, I can stay if you need. Yeah, she walking because
I don't think we know that. I don't think we know it's gonna take
you all night or all day. Rather, I don't know. I'm gonna
go back to the goddamn white horse because I think she's coming back. I'm
sorry, I don't know that you're gonna stay there. Yeah, I mean
I like I walked off. Oh yeah, I would probably go and check.
All right, right, we'll see you back in your horse. You
all diverge parts. And I think that's a really good place to end tonight
because the next week you have a very important decision about who you talk to,
who you make friends with, whether you raise a god. See you
next week if we want to, because that was a perfect way, bye
bitch, Yeah, you know, shout out destroyed. So next week,
do I have to do half of my face up as ki? That all
you can? You can have a conversation with yourself. That's what's going to
happen here. And I have to become a blonde again for next week?
Right? Ah? Sure you can't. I mean it's up to you.
You can be whatever hair color you want. Ah, well, you're a
SEMITSI I don't know what you're talking about. No, she's talking about Oh
yeah, she's right, Okay, impossible haha. Yeah. Who wants to
do the favorite bits? I know what mine is do it. I would
like to give my ex Peter Muguls but casually doing a critical success Laureal hair
drop in the background and I did not miss that ship. No one mentioned
it, no one reacted to it, and see anything chat. But I
was like, that's the best thing that's happened in two seasons of this show.
I didn't see it. I only saw the before and the after,
and I was like, whoa, Yeah, that's all right, that's my
XP. Cool. If I give my XP to Lake for just fucking yeah,
that was life she hulk the end of a Cara. She's terrifying.
Yeah, yeah she is. I'd like to give my XP to the Dice
for not letting my favorite NPC die. I'd like to take XP away from
Josh for turning this William into someone who hates me. Now, that's fair
enough. He doesn't hate you. He just thinks you should die and you're
evil, that's true. That's the difference. My XP goes to Mergs and
I think she's going to need it. Spending the night here at this club
and it goes to mergs or a lot of the moments with Harry, but
especially the one where she realizes she is going to have to fuck off and
just go back upstairs and it's not her easiest decision, and that that really
played on your face there can felt that's good? Yeah, thank you.
Yeah, that was some. There were a couple of moments where I was
like, I need like a full week to process and I need to make
a decision like right now. Yeah cool, I'm giving my XP to Grimshaw
for coming back. That was exactly what I was going to say. So
just take it twice, Brad, because that was so awesome. Nice.
Yeah twice. On that note, who's gonna shout out yeah because you want
to interest? Right? Yeah? Yeah, I'm really fucking busy. I'm
making a Leech video game based on season one or the characters from season one,
at least not the plot. It should be a right. Yeah.
It's available in the next couple of days, depending on whether I finish it
or not. Link to that. Not yet yet, it's not ready,
but when it is ready, we'll do table story dot TV slash Leech game.
Hell yeah, link. You're right to it. Yeah, and that
is. It's basically single payer visual novel among us, which sounds stupid,
but it sort of works and I'm surprised. Yeah, I'm really enjoying it.
You have a video that kind of shows a little bit of it.
There's a link to a video on Strange Adventures in the everything the description where
Yeah, but in the meantime, those watching the live show go to YouTube
dot com slash Strange Adventures. Mm hmmm, you'll get and for everybody else,
no after care tomorrow, but we will have a finale one on Monday
after our final show next week. That's what I can. It's a horrible
feeling. I have to play all of my characters next week. Yeah,
