Arise, millions, and welcome to this Unmade Gaming production. Joined the crew
of the Defiant as they journey through the Third Horizon at the Mercy of the
Icons, trying to understand just what's happening to the mystics in this Coriolist campaign.
Void, the show you're about to listen to, was originally a live
stream actual play on twitch dot tv slash Onmade Gaming. Arise, minions,
and welcome to Unmade Gaming. We are here for another episode of Void,
where we're trying to figure out if you call it a numb pad or a
number pad because one of us is wrong and it's all of you. And
okay, never mind who has dartness points. That's all I'm asking. That's
for you continue talking, my key. There's certain things dots points you guys,
remember those three darkness points that she stole from us, Because listen,
there's points and it's numpad number pads. I give you ten. Yeah,
the ship and I say no. That being said, if you like whatever
the hell this is, which you must because you guys crowd fund today,
so thank you for that. But if you like what we do here and
do you want to support the channel, the best way to do that is
with the Patreon link down below. Join us get all kinds of exclusive behind
the scenes cool stuff, as well as the oh god, you guys already
done it, as well as the crump from bar in the right hand corner
of the screen, which is incorrect, and I have to fix that.
It's not it's a lie, which is incorrect. I will fix that.
At That bar serves two purposes. One is when that bar fills Dot gets
doing the house, she wants to us like pronounced it number pad. And
two, every single dollar that goes into that bar goes back to these wonderful,
amazing faces you see here before you again, especially point that being said,
that's it. That's all I got. I'm gonna tote dot. Joey's
not the words to be. I'm over here making its none of which say,
numb pad looks like they're not a wrong. Two Oh, I'd say
we start with Malik dying in space, but unfortunately Malak's busy. We're gonna
start with Tamir. But I feel like a short recap in which I will
take artistic liberty. Mike. Last week, the crew still floating amidst the
asteroid belt and the odicon system dealt with a bit of a hound problem.
They had on board tied to some very very nice gold icon statue missing its
head instead replaced with a gym. Through a strange series of events, they
air locked both it and the PO, which is out of the airlock system.
Unfortunately, to Mirror touched the idol and something happened because he is in
fact an artificer, and his physical body went into a strange kind of dreamlike
staces where it was breathing and all bodily functions seemed to be happening, but
his mind was elsewhere. They strapped him down and assured that nothing would happen
because they were very promptly attacked by some pirates the vultures I believe they were
called. Well, they wanted whatever was on board, but some daft flying
and some okay shooting. See what I did there, artistic liberty. Somebody
please clips soul space, I mean Paul Space. I'm sorry. So they
managed to escape, but with some help, of course, from the only
other pirate that they know, a rather beautiful one, which they also learned
is somewhat in some way related to Alia, and drama ensued at that point
they raced the pirates to the local portal station where they arrived, and we're
refueling very quickly and amongst their weight. In the refuel station, they received
a message from who and where we do not know, But tonight's camera does
not pick up with him. It picks up with Tamir, strapped to a
medical table alone in the defiant, but dot somewhat safely, at least from
what you can tell. You remember picking up the idol and not much more
before your feet find themselves underneath you. But strangely enough, it's not ground
that you see, but almost empty space, as if you stand on a
vast body of water and the stars shine both above and below. In front
of you is a planet. The last time you've experienced anything close to this
is when you're in a suit on magnetized to the outside of towels ship.
That's as close as you ever get to just being and floating through space.
But in this case you seem grounded even though there is no ground beneath you,
and the planet in front of you is Kua, big and vast,
green and blue, and there as it kind of comes out of the clouds,
small as if a toy you could pluck from the night sky Coriolis,
that beaming icon of the third horizon, and it begins it's orbital crests like
around the outside, coming back around, so that you could watch it make
its full loop around Coriolis. You hear screams, the ravage, sound of
dogs and hounds, a memory or a echo. Your hands have a gold
dust on them, a reminder of the icon that you picked up. Dude,
do anything, say anything? I think to mirror, holds up his
fingers with the dust and looks out and very clearly koa. And he just
kind of takes a look around before speaking, because like, like if if
he he's him, right, tell me when you tell me when tom Or
is not in a space suit, when he's not bundled up with shields and
armor, what does he wear when he's just to Meir? When he is
just to Meir? It's not much different from what he already has, like
from what he already wears, relatively like decently fitting clothes, very clean,
very like slated, no no like flourishes, no jewelry, nothing fancy.
It's kind of his brothers deal. His physical appearance isn't nearly as important,
right, and do you stand there, simple man, but you don't wear
a helmet or a space suit. There's maybe even a moment where your heart
races, because the natural reaction to not being in space is to choke and
to die. But none of that happens. And as you maybe dust your
hands or touch them or rub them, space kind of pulls it off of
your skin, and that takes up this kind of beautiful organic swirl into empty
space, and it kind of bolts ahead, and as it does, it
moves you through space and time in a rather odd way. Flying seems to
be a kind of childish term, but you are weightless in essence, taken
almost with it. As you pass through space and time, you come into
another system and you see a few things, planets, but there is somebody
else there looking a woman. She's made of starlight and purple emptiness. She
wears a robe and a shoulder piece that gives quite a lot of form to
the upper torso, and a giant gold head piece sits on her head,
not made of an intricate, beautiful, clean finish, but that of something
that is worked by hand, made of parts of another machine. She is
obviously very far off in the distance. If you wanted to roll you know
what, I'd let you roll science because you do portal stuff, so you
would know the systems that way instead of a culture check, So you could
roll that if you want to maybe figure out what system you're in. Yeah,
for sure, this one is definitely not cool. You're assured that you
are not there right and just based on like, you know, how many
sons are in this system? Exactly? All rights real science, UH two
success. Uh. You can see there's a portal station which tells you there
this is a system here, but there are a lot of ships, military
ships that seem to be sitting in and around uh this station portal specifically you
would know this system as you've never been. But it's you Haru. You
Haru sits on the opposite side of Basically, it's adjacent to uh Hamura.
It's the opposite side to Taoan, the opposite portal. What that makes sense?
There were two doors. This is that door. You all came through
the opposite door way back in season one. But something strange you and whoever
this other figure is witness a bright embering light comes through the portal. It's
not uncommon, you know what it looks like when a vessel ejects itself.
But this this is violent in some way and unnatural, as if time is
working backwards, and it spits the remains of a rather large freighter vessel out
of this portal? Are you here to see this too? Here? To
see this too? Here to see this too? Here to? The figure
doesn't turn quickly or even acts as if they are surprised by your presence,
but her head does rotate in your direction. She tips her head only slightly,
for the headdress itself looks like it weighs a ton, and she says,
you do not know who I am? Correct? Correct? Correct?
Okay, why do you assume you can ask such questions? I pullet shies,
shies to whom am I speaking? Am I speaking? Am I speaking?
MM? I'm gonna have you role for this one? Fear? So
many fears. I'm gonna have you role for this. This is This is
really a command role, though I would take a manipulation role. But it
is empathy based. This is about communication. Okay, so we'll just go
straight empathy because okay, okay, I mean, if that's the best,
that's what you gotta do, you know, all right, let me open
the sub so I to make sure no manipulation and no command. That's a
zero. Great again, she smiles, and this time as she does,
it's like she's drawing closer. The gold does still kind of embers and flutters
around you in space, but speaker more vast, And as she draws ever
closer, you begin to realize this insignificant size of yourself and devoid of space.
And she looks down upon you, and she simply says, you are
so new you follow the deckhand? Yes, yes, yes, yes?
Has he led you here? No? No, no, this does not
feel like his swear? How do you possess such ability's mortal? Could you
tell me? Could you tell me? Would you tell me? That is
not my job? If I my apologies, she says, if you must
know I come meeting someone else. You have interrupted our date. Forgive me,
I give me. I not mean to intrude, to intrude, just
when you are astral projecting through space. I assume it is very easy to
intrude. I am, I am, please please please excuse my ignorance.
I astral stream checking checking. That is how you are here, unless you
usually dream of such things. No, no, no, m Her head
dress begins to kind of move click gears termiza my disciples here, and she
almost moves space and you see a familiar figure tupit. She looks rather surprised
to have half a face that is a robot. Eyebrows raise, very surprised
to see you. To me her stupid, stupid, m you're astral projecting,
it appears, so I So I have no idea, how idea,
how just kind of out here apparently. And she looks up at this giant
woman and she says, I see you have met the machine. The woman
looks down and she says, ah, maybe another time. Two bit things
are in motion. The vessel has returned two bit nods and looks at you,
Tamir. The machine icon disappears. Yeah, yes, Michael, I'm
glad you're making that face. Stupid, says I am impressed that your abilities
are moving forward so quickly. I wish I could take credit to sa tu
bit, but bit, we've found them. I don't. I don't know
it had it had some powder to it? What powder to it? What
powder to it? It felt wrong, It felt so wrong, it felt
so off off and they off and they cannot stay credit for being here.
I have no idea what is going on? Very leave to see you in
the middle of the system. Are you okay? Are you safe? How
are you hearing? How are you heating? How are you heating? She
kind of lets you just like ask all of these questions. It kind of
like Tamir Dump, like Tamir Dozen. She stands there, very stoically in
a way, and she reaches out her hand and she kind of grabs yours.
Her metal fingertips touch your very organic skin, and she says, I
came to witness something. I told you that I had worked very very hard
at expanding my ideals around the icons, around worshiping them all instead of a
single one. Among my journeys and the stars, I found a sister to
the deckhand. She calls herself the machine, a woman of science and magics.
Occasionally these walks amongst the stars will lead me to something of import.
Today I assume it is that, and she points to this kind of I
wouldn't say it's burning, but it's still It's as if it has broke atmosphere
right, it's still hot. The metal on the outside still cools in space,
and it is right around the edges to me a roll, a perception
check or not a perception when it's observational observation, that's what it's fine.
I was looking for perceptionally too. I always want to say the wrong thing.
One. Okay, you can just barely see there's some writing on the
back end of it. You make out the letters. Oh, you make
out the letters. I have to get FI, I are h. I
believe is are the last three letters? I have to double check. But
you basically make out the last few letters of another of the of the like
full name that seems to be broken off. This is just the back half
of a ship. Yeah, just the back half of a ship. But
you don't make out a whole lot more than that. And there's a moment
in time in space when a ringing starts to happen, that ringing that starts
deep in your ear, as if there's water in it, or like your
jaw begins to lock up. It starts to ring out ever present, and
you can see two bit begins to struggle. Her eyebrows furrow, and she
begins to hold her head. She says, do you hear that? Yes?
What is it? Yes? What is this? She says? Wait?
And she reaches for a dial at the like deep in herd, and
you can hear it like click click click click click, And as it does,
her jaw drops open and you can see a speaker system like insets behind
her teeth. It drops down and she you can hear the sound of somebody
tuning into a radio. She begins to try to find this noise, and
it begins to come through a song strange and add at first, it doesn't
really create any rhythm or lyrical tonality that you've ever heard, but it it's
like the stars are singing, And as she continues to tune in, it
becomes clearer, and the kind of twinkling of stars turns into the sound of
children's voices. They sing and you cannot make out what they sing, but
it leaves you feeling sad. Has he heard this before? I'm gonna say,
yes, gives you that same sad feeling, I think him and Thal
did ye. She's Tubit clicks the dial and her draw kind of closes up,
and the speaker system reinsets in the top of her mouth, and she
says, the children they sing, they mourn, they mourn, they mourn.
It is much like a eulogy. But what is it that they mourned?
So a bit. I have heard this before, this before. Yes,
that's beautiful and ful and hunting as it is, seeing as it is,
seeing as it is. This is the song of the Emma Settle,
the Emi settle emissaries. Yes, maybe for tough for them, a requiem.
And you haven't realized it. But the two of you are simply walking
and before you know at your feet have carried you back to Kua. So
simple couple small minutes. And as you come into Kua, and you walk
around the edge of this massive planet, and you look over, you do
not see two bit anymore. In your hand is that of towels. She
looks over. She's trying to communicate with you hell, and he's like it
takes her hand, she holds it, and you know, maybe you squeeze
a little tighter. She doesn't go anywhere, And there's a bit of time
where she stops trying to communicate her empty words or light in her eyes,
and she simply sits with you, And something happens to me her. That
song begins to swell in the background, and he watch as coriole As breaks
in half, crumbling into one half explodes into multiple pieces into space, and
the other. It lights on fire as it begins to fall to the surface
of Kola. It burns like an asteroid, bright and beautiful, a falling
star. You can hear the sounds and screams. The children that sing don't
sing anymore. They cry and they weep. And when you look back,
Tal's gone. Tubit stands. They're holding your hand again. And she says,
this is what we were supposed to see. How this is? This
is this is a dream, dying, dying. This is no dream to
me. Just because you do not understand does not mean it is not real
or it's not meant to be. She says, this, this is a
moment in time that will happen. Can we stop it? Can we stop
all of the people, all of those people. We have to stop it.
You have to stop it. You have to stop any have to stop.
Yes, we must at least try. We already failed before. I
feel, before I feel I did not want to feel more than people again,
more than people again, more people. Tube looks out over the emptiness,
this burning peace of Corioli is still falling to the surface of Kua.
How do you stop? What is meant to be Tamir who determines what this
meant The beer is meant to beer is mentally She smiles. I do not
know the answer to that question the way I sought it for almost a century.
I must go, You must go. Are you still on Coriolist sung,
Correolist song? Yes? I will come there before this happens, before
this happens, before this. I already know this is your path. There
is a ringing for you and your party. A message has already been sent.
What will you do if we don't make it, do if we don't
make it, if we don't believe anything? What I would have done if
you had not known it was going to happen. Everything you have worked for
and have worked, everything that you've said, every you've said, everything you've
said, babies, many have made a sacrifice. War is coming. You
can feel it, which has already begun. Here there, the first horizon
is not knocking. They're waiting. Go. We've overturns, overturn overturns.
She says, I have no doubt, and she kind of touches you on
your third eye, and there's a very cool feeling that starts from the bottom
of your feet and works. It works its way up your body as bright
lights meet your eyes, not like that of stars and space, but like
that of fluorescence on a medical table. You're met with the smells of a
ship, of your ship, and there's a moment as you come to you
realize you are strapped to a table. Hello, oh ayah, Sally comes
over. They are not currently aboard the vessel. We have docked at the
local station, currently refoot fueling at fifty four percent. Thank you, Sally.
Could you me up? No, I have no arms or legs.
These are regular straps, straps. It's like who used belts straps? The
belt strap you can just simply roll a dexterity or an agility to see if
you can, like like wiggle the it loose. It was just enough to
keep you down. They didn't like, you know, this is not like
sutural level. He'll put the safety straps on you that they put unconscious unconscious
people that keep them in the table if the ship jostles, not like restraints.
Yeah you yeah, this is no Houdini act. Just oh, just
imagine dehydrated legs a beer. We're gone for hours, guys, guys,
drip on him. It only lasts for so long you because you were in
a coma on success. Okay, that's all you needed. It takes you
a minute, and how anybody work around it? It's kind of it's kind
of embarrassing. I imagine there's a like Oh, as you try, it
doesn't really work, and you kind of have to wiggle jiggle the bell and
finally you get it loose. It takes you about twenty minutes to get free
of the tape, but nobody was around to see it, so therefore it
didn't happen. He's gonna get out of the colms immediately. Uh where are
you? Tw all of you here over your like earpiece colms for the ship?
Where are you? On my way to go get the message? I
hit my ear comment thank the icons? Zero alive? All right? How
is your nap? Tomir? Horrific? You to come here immediately, please,
I'm getting a message. I'll be back soon. The four of you
walk up to a small like kiosk like hood kiosk to receive the message.
It's technically addressed to Tao Tuma and the crew of the Defiant, sent from
the judge himself, not the icon the one you've been working with. I
have to go find his name. I will read it you boop it open.
It is a video message from him, and he says, I'm glad
to see that you accepted my message. I request your presence on Coriolis immediately,
you and your crew. We have a special mission for you. One
I think you may take particular interest in. There's like a couple of boxes
that pubs like, how long will it take you to return to Coriolis?
One week, four weeks, eight weeks. That was probably gonna be closer
to four eight weeks, four weeks right now, I think you could make
it in less than four weeks. But okay, we're gonna say four weeks.
I don't want to. I don't want to make him think that we're
like Russian super fast or really close. We'll just say four weeks. For
four weeks yep, boops. He goes, well, your presence is required,
so the sooner the better. Please make sure to dock in the private
stations and I will meet you there. Use these codes as you come in.
I'll know upon your arrival, and a series of codes are lined up
on the screen. I'm sure which Malik takes great it's interest in and plugs
into the data pad for your rival. Yeah. One month if you take
the short route. One month if nothing goes wrong. I would like to
interject here we have we have a group ability. Do you know? Yes?
Well, what is this group ability? Tell us all it's quickest through
route where we can go take the quickest route and bypass a danger or something
like. I think that's what it is. Because we're blessed right here on
Unmade Gaming. This is why Mike showed up tonight. This is also why
you're nice to meet in the pressroom. Thank you for this kind of abrupted
all right? All right? Well yeah, so okay, knowing knowing what
towel does about where they are, I would have clicked the appropriate button the
yeah check yes or no? Four months? Do you like me? Yes
or no? Yes? Oh, I don't know, is there? Yeah?
And it's about this time because you've been here for a little bit.
You got your drinks and then you were approached by that Remember the boy who
came up and told you that you had a message. The main doors from
the docking bay to the kind of centralized hub public hub of this UH space
station open UH and of course it is. Oh no, did we already
see her? No, we did see we did? We did already talk
to she say so, then her and her crew exit. Okay, yeah,
So then after getting that message, straight back to the ship to maris
awake, Tyl has to check on him. Okay. So does anybody else
want to do anything on the station or more interested in headed home or head
back to this ship? No? I want to buy some noodles and food
and available some maybe rice cakes and some anything else other than veggie paste.
There's all kinds of things. I imagine there's a young kid who is actually
like the kitchen here or the mess here would probably be run privately by somebody
that's like hired a family that's hired by the consortium. Defeed, all these
people there cannot be more than five hundred people on this do being one of
that has just been exploded out of the giant asteroid? Do I have money?
Did you leave money in your quarters? Did Seuel have money before he
did? Yeah? Okay, on his personnel. If it was on your
person, it's gone. If it was on your person, it's definitely okay.
If it was in your room, you got it. I don't know,
if I was smart enough to put anything in my room like money wise
tew. I imagine you might go to see Tamror uh, but you maybe
stopped a little bit by Seoul or by the girl who drops to check.
There's like rice cakes. I imagine there's probably also rice balls and uh like
uh all kinds. I don't know. There's just good eats like vegetables like
hot steaming vegetis, veggies no pay east like real veggies. I look at
I'm like a fuck, and then I like, I like pull out like
I wouldn't. I so Soul wouldn't take care of his money, but he
definitely would have taken care of to taken care of his guns. So I'm
gonna pull out like a uh I forgot what it was. It's just like
a basic rifle. I call I like three of those, and I'm gonna
be like, do you take barter? Ten year old child? Ten year
old kid looks at you and kind of gasp a little bit, and you
see your dad go, hey, no weapons, I'm not immediately runs up
and liked his I'm gonna one second and then take gives it back to Uh.
So I got this. I need stuck up on our supplies. This
okay, and uh. The little girl kind of looks at soul like was
it not good? Was the food not good? No? No, no,
no no no no, no, no no no. That looks so
much. She's such a trouble baker. He's so good. The little girl
goes, I can get you supplied to Do you have a list? No?
No, child, here, Actually, if you can help, that
would be wonderful. Here's here's a small list. I'm supplies that we do
need. Uh, here's some money. Let me know if you need any
more. Okay. I lean forward to ali Ago. It's a perfectly working
gun. She's a child. I was about her age when I shot my
first one. She literally like just takes her hand and cuts his mouth and
then hands it was like, oh, you can set it off behind the
counter from my dad, okay, And she kind of like bustles off and
like she's like, oh, Alice is like you can have a little tree.
She's gone. She's gonna you hear the parapetraphee. She heads down to
what is kind of like a general store. I guess you could say where
you can get like basic supplies and then they'll sell you some food to fresher
food that won't keep us long, but you'll have some fresh food at least
to start the trip back. And there are a couple of people looking.
Here's the thing, this is not like the hammer Abbie station recoil is there's
not a lot of security here because this is like I could rob them this.
I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. This is
uh, this would be like outlaw territory. I mean, this is like
mostly run by by pirates. You do see a couple well armed guards,
about three or four, but that is all you've seen so far. He
checks. Wouldn't be the first time you pushed a kid rights. Listen,
he's learning leave them alone. At least this time. I offered a trade.
You know, Uh, bartering is a valid form of trade in Coriolis,
and I imagine bartering was all you could do in prison. So maybe
it's just you know, I'm gonna look at the alley. I was like,
was that not correct? You're gonna have a little chat when you get
back on the ship. I thought that was nice. Down there are certain
times and certain people that you do certain things with child is not a gun
person. I'm like, just I just go. I want to think this
entire entire campaign kicked off with Suel and Elite being mean to kids. We
all know how that that's why I wasn't mean. I offered Suel got a
tattoo. That was a start of how Suel got a tattoo. That kid
was an asshole. To be fair, that kid was a brat. You
were too grown, ass man. Listen, if you can't shy kid,
society is gonna parent them for you and they get shoe. Well you heard
it here. First, chat takes a village, I guess you are dick.
Takes a village kids. So it takes a minute, but people finally
go back to what they're doing. The guards may give you a couple of
eyes, but no real bad Intentio was right, Yeah, is there any
place I can sell my gun? Yes? You can absolutely go to the
general store and hawk your wei. Okay, because I have like three rifles
that are kind of useless and I'm broke it ship now, so I want
to like yep. So basically what happens is, Okay, the rest of
the crew, who's going hands raise If you're going to the ship, hands
raise if you're following Soul. Oh wait, I am Soul. Wow,
okay, the big ladies babysitting Soul great? Sorry, yeah, so it
is not signed up for this that Sul is like walking. She like it,
goes look for someplace to sell it. I imagine it's just like parent
walking like work. Yeah, and then so it's like, what are you
doing? Stop following me? What makes it worse is you're going to the
exact same place this kid is going to get your supplies for the show.
So the kid turns around to see you following them, she begins to pick
up her pace and her feet turn into a pit or pack like a run.
So okay. So Soul, not understanding the social que, assumes the
kid just wants to go faster, so he's gonna start running after her.
Now grabs Okay. Now I would say, well that depends how bad to
Seul really want to run? Would you? Would you let stop you?
He goes like a space and a heavy hand hits your shoulder. Soul,
Oh kids going fast? What the kids going to? Okay, it's okay.
Did to hire you to like babysit me? No, it just seems
come with walking a dot with you. I'm gonna like try to brush the
hand off, okay, and then I'm gonna be like, don't touch me,
and I'm gonna start walking at a normal pace. All he has on
the back. She's going to start poking you gently. I'm not I'm not
not even poking, like getting really close to your senses. You can feel
it. He's like more fucking not touching you. Though not touching you.
You don't have to go very far. You kind of go down in a
round a corner and you can see there's kind of an open front shop.
There's just a counter and a bunch of shit on racks behind this kind of
toothless man who's grinning as the child hands a list over your list. As
you around the corner of the kids, season goes and kind of draws back
a little bit. The grinning man looks at you, looks at the scared
kid, looks over at the two of you, and kind of furrows his
brownie says, can I help you? Yeah, I got a couple of
weapons here, a couple of guns or I want to see if you need
them. Maybe we can trade kind of short of burnt. Yeah, Well,
we don't get a lot of people hulk in guns out here, but
I dropped three rifles, two pistols, and a couple of grenades. The
kid at this point has backed up against with small piece of wall there is
and tried to make themselves like not seen because I see these look like they're
in good shape. Yeah, I just I just don't think I have a
really a need for them. You don't need need for them? Yeah,
And you can clearly see Seoul have like his accelerator rifles strapped to his back,
and like his pistol on his side, and are mercury sort just like
latch. A lot of firepower for one man. I thinks he thinks that's
not enough. Do you want him to not? I'll offer you one hundred
birr each for him. I look at allia, I didn't buy these.
Sounds like a steal the h okay, yeah, sure sounds good, sounds
good. His eyebrow raises. Uh if you don't question it, he kind
of smirks. He got the way better into that deal. Way hella better
into that. He puts a cred stick with a measly three hundred bird on
it, slides it over to you, sul takes it as if he just
made the biggest deal of his life. He goes, you ain't from around
these parts. I ain't seen you here for bye. Just turn around,
stops and looks some holly. And now who seems to be the responsible adult
in this situation? And about him, he's a little bit of anti social.
He had a lot of childhood, so okay, alright, Hell,
I ain't no excuse for being rude, anti social. I apologize for him.
Shush, you hate, no need to apologize. He just sold me
three riffles for the three hundred birth I'll make four. I mean I'll make
twice that much. Look at that, I help. Don't think over that?
Do you give it as a as a jested for a skidding your kid
your time? He looks over the kids, my kid? Well, I'm
want to suggest you take it easy throwing around steel like that aboard this place?
What we got? He goes, Look, it don't hurt my feelings.
But we got pirates hiding in every nook and cranny. So you want
to fire fight, you ask him for one, So fair enough, I'm
gonna suit this, get up with whatever here's on this list, and good
day to you. Folks, that's great if you don't mind. In addition,
can you give it them giving a little treat please? For me,
I feel like we have we give a god up on the foot with him.
Since you just sold me three riffles for three hundred bir I guess I'll
give the kids some treats. He reaches back. The kid kind of perks
up, eyes get kind of big. They remove the kind of banding that
was around the head, and you see this little girl. Her face is
kind of dirty from like kitchen soot and grease, and she smiles a little
bit. And he reaches in and pulls ope out a jar like a canister
and heat. It's a lit off of it, and inside of it you
can see these kind of glistening rocks, kind of crystal like, and he
pulls one out and sets it on the table. She looks very excited.
He goes, we'll go on, hey, nobody stopping you, and she
kinda snatches it up and pops it in her mouth very quickly, and it
sits in the side of her gum and like protrudes out. You know,
kids, when a little chipmunk likeke and all kind of just gets on like
down, squats down to her level when she goes, uh, sorry about
that. I hope this uh this means but even friends and kind of puts
her big hand. She removes this because she can't talk with this big piece
of candy in her mouth. She removes the from her mouth. It's kind
of like, you know, kids are all slabberry all the time, Mike,
don't make that face. They are kids slabberry all this time. Hair
and on the stream, I'm going to confirm this. I'm not Mike.
Yeah, I was about to say, like, I'm not. I'm not
denying that dot, I'm just saying that it's gross. He's not ready for
it. So there's like a little slabbery children with her, and she says,
just whatever you do, don't tell my dad. He doesn't like me
to have sugar rocks. Okay's gonna puts it back in her mouth. And
then she her very small hand grabs her very big hand and she kind of
binds her face so you can't really see that she's eating a piece of candy
again. And she looks up at the man who's like slowly boxing the things
that she's going to bring to you. Oh yes, and her hand sticky.
Yes, can I ask the shop owner how much the sugar rocks are?
Uh, you mean like all of them? Yeah, he goes,
you, well, it's going to cost you more than them raffles did.
Oh yeah, gets up, We're gonna go now, thank he goes,
no, No, I'll sell you the whole jar. You just had me
back that kridstick. It grabs, Okay, I throw on the kredstick.
Yes, he snatches it off. He says, all right, and he
slides the jaw are of rock sugar down to you. Though it's careful adult
hearts yourself. I'm gonna take one and but in my mouth to see what
it tastes like. It's a little like rock candy. It's kind of it's
very sweet. It's very hard. Obviously you're meant to kind of like suck
on it. But there's uh, there's a refreshing, almost like drinking sparkling
water type feel in your mouth. It it is, it's almost clean in
some way. It's like brushing your teeth but also eating a piece of sweet
candy. It's very strange cool. Yeah, I enjoy it. Yeah mouth
wash, Yeah, it's not it's not that sperimenting not like that. It's
more like a bubbly or like more like refreshing water or like cucumber water or
something like that, you know what I mean. Like it's guy, it's
really refreshing. So anyways, he he eat, yep, he slides you
the rest of the jar. You know it's yeah okay, And as Sudles
like finishes it, I'm gonna look at Alio. I'm like, do you
want one? It's got a jar? Kazy now all right, I'm gonna
throw Alia one. And then as I'm leaving, I want to put the
jar down next to the girl and leave for me. I just leave,
she says, like a big piece of candy. I don't want to talk.
Leave. She kind of likes over. I listed that looks at Seul
and kind of just smiles and walks out. She puts the whole thing in
her bag. She looks very she looks very sneaky right now, like dido
seek Okay. I just want people to know those rifles were illegally purchased when
I hand the syndeked thing, so I was just trying to get rid of
them. Yeah, it's a smart way to do it, don't You don't
want those numb Yeah, you don't want to be caught with them syndicate rifles.
Not gonna lie. I was, in turn really freaking out. And
then he left the candy for the kid and you're good. Yeah, and
what I think? Hope? Sorry? Oh no, go ahead, I
think all he's just going to all he's just going to say as till we
came out to it. You know, I know how to make those right.
I just leave. I just keep walking, keep and you keep walking.
But our camera cuts back to the vessel, where while all this candy
shenanigans is going on, twel and Malik have returned to check on Tamir.
I think he's still strapped to the bed. No, he's definitely not.
Nobody saw him strapped to the bed. But Sally no, he says that
too to tell ohh, I'm pretty sure that unless Tamir wants to be strapped
to the bed, he's probably going to figure out how to get out.
I didn't tie him very tight or anything. M gross after you, Okay,
I continue on, where do we find to me or when we get
to the ship. Yeah, I was gonna say what's we're up to?
Because they respond pretty quickly, and I would say they return within just minutes
of you sending out the call. Okay, he's plotting a route back to
Coriolis. That that's so, he's he's probably up at the bridge at his
station, plotting a route back to Coriolis. Okay, when when I get
back to the ship, I just hit the comms on the station and say,
hey's me or where are you up on the bridge? All right?
All right, well gool plotting a route Correolis. I'm guessing you seem a
smitch brisled. I think you're working with with patients speed mm hmmmm very much.
So what what what are you doing? Oh? Yeah, du tal
And Tamir's just going to kind of like rush up and hold her face and
kiss her, just a deep kiss. When uh, that's away? Well
that was nice? Was the occasion? Are you okay? No? I
saw something? Too many things? How did how do you do this?
This is supposed to happen to you, not not me? I was here,
but you were also there, Tamir samir AND's help put puts her hands
up on his face. Let's start from beginning. How about that? Okay,
Coriolis is going to be destroyed? I saw it break in two.
I heard the cries of its people. I heard the cries of the emissaries.
Well, okay, do all right? So I uh while you were
out, I tried to reach you and I saw Coriolis falling to cure But
oh you did. Okay, that's that's good. But also we have to
go back to Coriolis. Like now, yes, right now, what tal
kind of jumps forgetting? Oh yeah, oh rightlike uh huh yeah, well
we uh so we got we got a message. No, no, no,
no, go back to the I saw Coriolis explode or whatever the ship.
What uh that was? Basically it's right. I saw, yeah,
that's what's going to happen, and we need to go stop it. How
when did you see this? How are you together in the same place because
you weren't. That's not what So do you understand? H Sometimes there are
two particles, and those two particles, despite any distance, they rotate opposite
one another. My girlfriend is a monster in a jar. Let's feed that
up. What talentized abilities are connected? Uh huh. If she attempted to
reach out to me wherever I was, which was at cool for a moment,
she found me. Uh, huh. Okay, that's too much to
unpack. So well, it took a while you were gone for most of
it, or else you probably would have kind of seen it happening, not
see, but never mind, I've seen enough. Uh. So we're going
back to Coriolis. Yes, right, you know did to me like looks
the south for like confirmation? Yeah, we're going back to Coriolis. But
that's because that we were going back to Coriolis because we got a message from
our patron just now. That was the message I was picking up. Uh.
And they apparently have another assignment for us. Okay, so why assignment?
Why do you need to go back to Coriolis? I guess it's the
question me, Samir, Oh, because he saw it explode. We saw
it explode. Okay. Well, normally if you see an explosion, you
want to be away from it. But that's just rational people, I guess,
not our crew. M This is rational. This is there are forces
that are much greater than us that keeps sending us these messages, these signals.
If we ignore them, we cannot ignore this. Okay. So I
don't want to sound like a broken record here, and I don't claim to
know space magic but in roughly twenty seven days, the aforementioned monster girlfriend in
a can is going to literally explode. And he looks at the map.
That's about the same time we would yeah arrive at Coriolis. So maybe we
don't go there and explode Coriolis with the Genie canister. I was actually hoping
to do that before we left. We don't know where we need to go.
Good Alias still translating that book. We have no idea where it will
leads us to go. Maybe Aliyah will figure it out before we get to
Coriolis. We can only hope. What if it's in the opposite direction,
then we will go these seven days? What if we could bypass a portal?
Jump what I explain, Please, the portals are not what we think
they are. They do not operate the way that we know or expect them
to operate. They distort time. We could theory do what I saw the
White Butterfly do. I'd have to run the numbers. But if we could
get back to Coriolis in a significantly short of time, it may be worth
This is where you yell at him, Just pretend he's me, you know.
I wish it was that easy to yell at him. Morton both tamir
uh, So, I love you and I adore you, and I trust
you with my life. Are you sure that's a thing that's even possible.
I think I just saw an icon. It doesn't answer the question. Did
the icon tell you the secrets on how to do this? No? So
how does that help tell? Do you remember what they told you about the
voice in my head? Yeah, I'm sorry. You touched an evil space
junk that summoned monsters. Oh and then you passed out? Wait, and
then you had yeah yeah, no, no, I'll get to that.
And then you passed out and had magic space dreams, and now you want
a portal jump to save things aside, But like, can we not just
have dreams and fucking just go off and do whatever. By the way,
no touching things unless we know what they are. That's a new role on
this ship. Wait, but but tell I don't know what they are unless
I touched. Yes, yeah, then you passed out and it's summoned monsters.
Yeah, almost died. We almost died, but you don't. You're
okay, you look great. You look fine. Everybody else so your brother
tried to space us. It's great I space to the dogs. I believe
it is possible, because we're going to have to figure out how to do
this anyways, because war is already here. Why do we have to figure
out how to time travel? It's not time travel that makes me sound like
I've lost my mind. No, I know, I heard you say it.
Oh you could not understand Lake. You need to spend less time in
the gym and more time with the books. Maybe you need to spend time
in books. Did we hear the main door of the vessel open? And
that we hear that Seul and Ali come on bantering about probably how that did
not go as planned. We're in the bridge. We got noodles, great,
bring them up. You gather in the mess uh, you gather in
mess hall around warm noodles too, discuss and beer, warm noodles and beer
and warm beer as well, all because artistic liberty motherfuckers told you. Because
cousin numb pad, you're drinking warm beer today, okay, poor fantasy beer.
You. Hey, I'm gonna look at it. I'm gonna look at
Tamyror. Hey, you're awake. Ralio runs forward and then kind of just
basically like starts checking on him. And like are we all kissing? Basic?
No, no, no, just like looking making sure, like feeling
his pulse, making sure he's okay. He goes Jesus, that was a
lot quicker than I was expecting. He ran in there like he ran a
towel. They this big lady, just like I look at the league one.
Okay, before before you start talking about time travel in ridiculous theories about
whatever I have in trauble, No, I have things that are grounded in
actual fact. One we discussed alia. Where do we stand on the book
situation. I know it's been I don't know eight hours, but I'm hoping
you're a fat that's reader. Apparently we're going to Coriolis. Oh core,
Oh okay, yeah we can. I just say this clue pivots very quickly.
Yeah. There's a thing that we all yell at each other for.
It's not talking. And then we just keep not talking, and then we
just keep doing things. I just try to talk. You just don't understand
one ridiculous thing at a time. From upstairs, No, I'm sorry,
from the rooms, because mess is in the center of all of the rooms.
You hear something clatter inside of Malik's room on the other side of that
hallway instantly put my sword what the fuck? And then it clatters again,
as if somebody threw something against a wall, and then again when the fast
room. Hey, hey Aliyah, Yeah, that's cool, that's for you.
Uh okay, let's go, And then she runs upstairs. Good luck
you. Actually, what you do is you run like around the corner.
It's like a hallway that connects all four of the bedrooms together, and you
can hear something clattering about, as if a child is throwing a heavy toy
against the walls of his bedroom inside of Malik's chambers. Do we not help
her? Oh? Tiles were behind her. I could yell that last time
I tried to help. It's still kind of just stands like I get yelled
at a lot too. And I'll go, I'll go to Aaliyah. Do
you open the door? Yes, because she already knows when. Yeah.
When the door slides open, what you see is the canister. It seems
to levitate in some way and is flinging itself about the room. It's smashing
into the walls of the furniture. She oh, wow, what do I
do? I can I use some sort of mystic power? Or like a
mystic grab of some sort. You can just go grab it. Uh,
you can just go grab it if you want to grab it. Yeah,
roll me a agility check. I will take a dexterity I believe is what
that is. If you have any bonuses or benefits to your dexterity, extra
extra die. If not, it's so just roll a flat agility there goos.
Hey, Hey, it's surprisingly enough. You managed to kind of catch
it mid air. And as you do, it's it's like vibrating. Your
whole arm shakes as you hold it. I needed to roll a force check.
It's trying to like it's like a magnet pulling it the opposite directions.
Okay, yeah, okay, you you managed to hold it. But but
I would say anybody at the door, So Seul and Towel both standing there.
You can see Alia's hand like vibrating all the way up to like the
arm socket with whatever energy is pulsing through this this this canister, you know,
like darkness. Do you want some help? Al yah, I guess,
but okay, I will I will go up and try to hold the
can What kind are we doing exactly? Well? Whatever this is trying to
do we're trying to stop it. I'm trying and you and then you usually
like turn into the cannon. Just start with peace. Okay, okay,
interesting, roll a, this is an empathy check. I would take command
or manipulate, and manipulate always sounds like bad, but in this case it's
not. Shoot. I will attempt to seeing what she's doing, I'll kind
of try to help, but attempt to. There, so straight empathy,
just a straight upathy rules totally alright, nice because I have five in that
Hey, another success. It doesn't stop vibrating, but it is not trying
to pull away tow and all. You can feel actually a weightlessness to it.
It stops and if you remove your hands, it levitates in the center
of the room. It kind of stays isolated and put just now lightly like
the way a cell phone may vibrate, but it hovers right in the middle
of the room. Can I do anything? You sure can? No,
I'm asking can I do it? Unless you've suddenly just developed mystic powers?
Probably not? Thank you? Okay, Okay, I just slowly walked back.
Okay, is Malik there? Okay, No, he didn't come.
He gotta yelled at for trying to help time, okay, because he's also
an aspect Aliah. It turns to the canister and he goes, ty,
would you mind if I take this to my room? Sure? So I
want to say yes. I definitely want to say yes, But I'm also
a little bit worried because it seems like whatever is controlling in this is more
powerful than just one of us, seems to kind of take more than one
to do anything with it. Unfortunately, we would then have to find a
common place that both of us and possibly to meet if he's feeling well,
to be able to keep an eye on and keep a watch over well.
But at the same time, a commonplace would also mean everybody else would be
able to access, and more importantly, this would be able to access everybody
else. We could take it to the temple room, keep that door locked
so you're standing there by they're they're chatting, and this this literally, this
like thermos canister is spinning and levitating in the middle of the room. Rolling
observation. Okay, okay, okay, are you it's a it's a mean
observation. Okay, I failed all together. Well, sir, you should
see it. I want to give you a darkness point because I'm curious and
what I'm missing out here? Yeah you do, okay, all right,
cool, okay. You As they're they're talking about what to do, and
it's right there in front of them, but they're communicating with each other.
As it spins, you you kind of look it over. You have used
and maintained many a metal weapon in your day. I sure have you know
what whear and tear and cracking of metal looks like. As the canister spin,
something catches your eye. Ship the canister is becoming weakened. It seems
that it's cracking in certain places around the edge that it may not hold.
It's you don't know how much longer it has, but you can see that
like weakening of the metal around certain places, specifically the lid itself, and
then all of the kind of like red imbering light that is in it.
You can see it's like cracking outwards, as if the whole thing would swell
and burst. I like lean into the door a little bit as I watched
Tale and Alia. I don't mean interject. I know floating jars isn't really
my specialty, but I don't know if you know it's I feel like if
you guys, don't figure something out, that thing's gonna pop and you might
not be able to pop back. Just saying it looks and I like,
point at the crack. I'm like, I've seen a lot of you know,
metal debris crack destroyed that that kind of looks like it's about to snap.
Hearing that, Alia immediately like panics because we need to go take this
now. Yeah, let's we needed What do you know about the ritual?
Whatever needs to be done, we need to I've only gotten through the superficials.
I know that there's three steps. I know some of the materials that
are needed. I have not had any chance to translate the actual chance or
any of the actual verbal communication that needs to be done. I just know
the very basic process. I've been given eight hours. No, No,
that's that's okay. We uh maybe you and I can just put our heads
together and maybe get to mer in on it and see between the three of
us we can figure something out. Hey, aaliya, I don't is the
jar thing like magical or can we put some sort of metal around it?
Would that help at all? Da uh uh, I don't even know what
to tell you to roll for that, Like you could roll. You could
roll a mystic ability if you wanted to. And I'll see if you know
anything about it from mystic stampoint And then yeah, hey, okay, here's
the thing. It doesn't matter what container you put it in. You know
that the next trajectory is the gin bursting out of here, full gin,
right like, that's the yeah, you know what I mean time final stage.
And basically at this point we need to keep her away from a leak
completely. I'm just like making notes. I'm making I'm making notes. Yeah,
so she turns to uh, talent goes, where do we take this?
The one thing we must make sure is it does not reach Malik.
I'll tell you on the way. But we are at at the precipice.
We don't have much time, So no to the space medal. At this
point, it doesn't matter. Okay, well, let's let's get it to
the temple then, and I hit my comms Molik, you are not allowed
anywhere near this canister. That is an order. Did the brothers sit in
silence? Apparently, Malik did. Oh, I muted myself. It nailed
it. Yeah, No, they did not. They did not. As
soon as everyone ran off to go and do things. He like if if
if Tamir went to get up Molik would like put a hand out sit they
could need help. Yeah, yeah, not not important, I mean very
important. But also this is also important. Okay, what's up? How
do you know Tubit? I need details? How do you know Tubit?
Because she was on the spaceship that stranded me on the jump planet. She
works with Samina, the Dancer, works with the Dancer. Yes, she's
the one who told me about the canister exploding. How do you know her?
And what did she give you? I cannot tellue that information. Okay,
here's the thing. As the resident captain of keeping secrets on this ship,
whatever she gave you, whether it was information or something, I don't
know, Semina is looking for it. She knows you have it, and
if she knows you have it, other people know you have it. She
basically said, there's a target on your back. And if you're piloting back
to Coriolis, where I can only assume you met with Tupit and where Semina
works out of the majority of the time, other people there know you have
whatever it is. They also know what I got on XR. So if
whatever you got is tied to what I got on XR. Coriolis isn't the
best place. And also we have a very obvious drive signature. So if
people exire the book and the medallion I gave to Alia, I am not
certain to me her Aurora, Oh yeah, yeah, I'm paying attention.
Can can this be two way or is it just one way? Not?
Meliantribu heard that this book and to be explains the book? Oh how really
a book? It's like a collection? M. Yes, what can you
tell me of it? I don't know. I have not read it,
but it's supposed to have stuff in it, important stuff about religious stuffs from
the first horizon? M. Great, thank you? What it was?
I'm sitting right here. I think they are unrelates. Okay, well it
doesn't really matter because they don't think whoever they is, don't think that.
I don't really care who they are. I swore an oath. Uh huh,
I don't really care about the oath. People are hunting you, and
therefore this ship and everyone else on it tubit told you you would be hunted.
H yeah. The trick. The tricky is when you do crimes is
to not be found out about them, because then this happens, and if
we just walk into Coriolis with you being you, you might die. Something
about this whole dancer situation. Maybe when your brother brings it up, you
realize she was in fact stalking the stacks when she saved you from those There's
a good reason. There's a good possibility she was in fact looking for something.
Though why two bit was there when your brother was stranded is strange.
Yeah, that that part doesn't quite make sense. Look, I do not
trust the answer. I don't know if you missed. But she tried to
kill me I recently found out. Yeah, yeah, great, she's just
so very friendly. I M maybe watch out with that. Apparently also Alia's
sister, So good morning, welcome back to the ship. Samina is Alia's
sister. At this point, honestly, I'm just going to assume that everybody
is related to somebody turns into at this point. It might be a theme.
Yeah, I'm a coil scheme, you know. I'm trying to show
what all that means. But yeah, at this point, like everyone seems
to be interconnected. Point is you're wanted by criminals. I am wanted by
authority figures Malik at what point in our lives have we never been wanted.
I pretty much live in obscurity and anonymity. That's kind of my thing.
So for a while now until fucking this ship apparently but still the ship that
you made us all kind of you thinks happy. I'm aware of what I
did. I'm aware. Don't be upset with me. I'm not upset with
you. I'm just if Listen, every time I leave details out and then
get in trouble, you yell at me and then twe makes twel face at
me, and then I feel shamed. So because you're with be just shot
out. You're leaving details out, and people want you dead because of whatever
details you're leaving out. We can't We actually can't help you if we don't
know what you're hiding or protecting. That's the point, Aliah Taw. You
try to move this thing, Go ahead and try. I need a force
check from the both of you. You need a critical success fuck force wars.
Come on, baby. Yeah oh no, that's a limited fu.
Yeah yeah, limited pretty good though. I can't help, can I you
can if you want to try. Yeah, you need a forced check,
a critical success force check. All right? Me do I see them struggling,
because I'm only gonna like run over if I think they need help.
If we can't move it, talent really say, okay, it's like it
literally is like trying to push against this strongest magnet you've ever felt. All
right, fuck that shit. Can I use my judge's talent? Yeah,
so you can make it? What a critical success rate? Yeah? I
think I think your judge's talents only had attacks. But oh that yeah,
this is not an attack. Yep, Nope, can't do it. You
try, and there's all of you together, like, and you're putting all
of your body weight behind it, and at some point something has to give
and all of you slip and the whole jar like bolts across the room and
smashes into a pile of Malik's laundry. Oh thank god there was the wall.
Yeah, okay, well that didn't work. Oh my god, thank
god Malik's dirty. There's a very another loud bang that happens after a period
of silence for the brothers. It interrupts your conversation. Can we go have
the rest of our crew? Now? I guess great? You did your
tel come in over the commons and say that Malik is ordered to not not
be allowed near the canistar. Uh, yeah, you can stay here.
Then Tamy is gonna go. H now, rush with a little bit of
haste. Yeah, the quarter, I imagine you find it is the moment
like they might be digging it out of the laundry, but you can see
the canisters like on the floor, buried in Malik's laundry. You're not sure
what's happened. What can they assist them? Yeah, we can't move this
thing. We all three of us tried. It's it seems to be fighting
them in some way. I mean it would it be all right if I
asked Moleik to stay with you? Perhaps if we can't move this out of
here, then Molik needs to Actually that might just be easier. Sure,
great, head around the corner to get your brother. Yep, I wait.
I grabbed some clothes out of the pile and I throw it to me.
I said, there's his clothes for the day, aside from the one
he's wearing. Thank you, captain. Correct answer. You pick your head
around the corner. You see Malik still standing there. I'm guessing it didn't
take but thirty seconds a minute. Something's wrong? What is happening. Uh,
you're we're having a sleepover? What the fuck? You are not allowed
in your room? I'm sorry? What? M hm? Why am I
not allowed in my room? I'm I'm sorry. I tried, but I
didn't actually explain anything to him. I just don't thought that he was having
a sleepover. That does sound about it, right, But Malick, you
and I will talk later. I can give you more details, but as
of right now, you need to be as far away from this canister as
possible. In fact, if it, if it's all possible, until I
figured out how to uh fix this situation and perhaps bring back your girlfriend,
it might be better if you're not on the ship. No, I'm no,
I'm gonna I'm gonna be too that. Uh nope, okay, maybe
not off the ship, but as far away from this canister as this ship
allows you. Yeah, since we can't move the canister, we have to
move you. You have legs, you can walk fine. Yeah, I
turned to the towns. That was actually easier than I thought. Where do
to me? Or and Malik go? Just so that I know, I
mean, I think we're still just in the main Mesa, just in the
best haul. Okay, You're sitting there with a pile of Malik's dirty laundry
on a lot of confused faces. Here's your clothes. We're not done talking
about this. You being hunted and murdered thing. We're all being hunted and
murdered, Malik. I'm not. I'm pretty sure all yet, isn't?
That is not my story to tell. Camera cuts to taw Seul gathered around
dirty laundry and this canister that is still vibrary. You can hear it like
on the floor. I'm sorry for the record, Malik is the most well
dressed person on the ship. Why does he live in a frat room?
What's happening here? I say it was exact breast, say it was excessive
amounts of dirty laundry. Normal ass people have dirty laundry. I don't have
piles of copper. I don't mean a day of leaf pile size. I
mean, like you know, like yesterday's clothes were on the floor. Hamper.
It's a hamper. The shoot go straight to the There's a damn reason
why they canister ended up in clothes. I needed something at the wall because
they could have been against the wall hold on. Then things would have been
much different on. I have a very reasonable explanation. We were just in
a ship battle. But that's true. Yeah, that's true. You did
you didn't. Clothes got tumbled off of the bed. I'll take, I'll
take, I should I should probably check my room, the grenades everywhere.
There's a reason why we strupped to mirror to the table and pleasure. I
need to know what does Aliyah tow and Seul do. I'm staring at this
thing like damn. Well, first and foremost, Alia is going to tell
tell all the che's research at this point, at least what she has cleaned,
basically telling her about well, first off, there's three stages to the
gin and becoming the Gin and how you know she's now at the final stage,
but pretty much means she's kind of try to want to have sex with
the Malik to become complete, and there for the reason why she needs to
be as far away from Malik as possible, and also that through the process
he will die as well. What dog And I'm assuming I hear this right,
because I'm imagine it's very open. She also talks about the more like,
uh that there's a there have been some successful exorcisms in the past of
like trying to rip the demon from the body vessel and those kinds of things.
But it's always you know, that kind of stuff is lost into like
ancient text, which is what Ali has been trying to go through. But
from what you can tell, you at least know the kind of gin,
which is important. What the fuck I also mentioned like so from my research
so far that a few things that I have cleaned is that, like I
mentioned before, there are three stages as well to the exorcism with certain materials,
and she brings up a little shopping bag that I have tried to purchase.
Outside of this, we I can clean some of the setting in the
sense of just it can't. It doesn't have to be anywhere specific. It's
just that wherever it is that we perform it, we just we need to
make it ready. For example, there cannot be any form of things that
it can interact with, like musical instruments or pictures. The outside of that
we have to keep away. Like I said, Malik, you can be
there as part of it as a loved one, because that helps, because
she interacted with you and it was close to all of you in the crew
as well. I'm sure but having you around will help headed her and you
know, at least keep her grounded. I have some of the some of
the description's translated for the chant that we need to perform, but that is
as fart as I've gotten, so fart go. I guess if you don't
already have it on you, grab the book and let's start digging in.
I guess I gotta warn you. I was never the best studier, but
I'll help where I can. You've been doing very well so far. I
have full trust in you, and then pretty sure that you'll be fine by
yourself. Yeah, yeah, don't take too long, please, Okay,
I'll be right back. And then she runs out to go grab the book.
You got the book? You grab whatever the strange symbol beat it symbol
is. Uh, well, I actually, oh, there you go.
As soon as Alia leaves the room, I turned to school and I say,
his school. You just start stripping this room of stuff. I know
that Malik's going to be mad. Do it gently. I swear to every
icon. If you break anything in this room, I will break your face
and I'll like start taking down slowly into the hallway, just to kind of
get them out of the space. Chairs, anything that's loose. I see
Malik in the hallway as I'm just taking it stuff. Yeah, I imagine
the two brothers are there and mess and you hear the moving stuff out of
your bedroom. Malik. No, he stays in the mess room and it's
just disgruntled about when I get your help, and I try to get to
me to do too. If he's not busy, I'm not leaving the cap
come help them move stuff. To mirth, he calls, Tamir, you
don't have to tell us what it is, but I'm playing that card.
You tell her or I tell her? Or you never mentioned me keeping secrets?
Again? Tell who? And he motions in the direction of where Tal's
voice came from. I already told Tal. Does she know you're being hunted?
Did we have that conversation? I don't think we had that conversation.
Did we have that conversation? Nope? There you go. That could be
like a song. Did we have the conversation, nope, let's tell into
yours love song. Did we have that conversation, No, we didn't.
We did not see which other stuff going on that the right time? Okay,
I'll be interested in know what you told tew but we can get there
later. Your brother made it clear. Ali crosses the room over to her
chambers to grab something, clearly crosses back. The room is empty. There's
now a canister kind of hovering near the where the wall meets the floor in
a corner where the clothing was. I brought the book and then she like
puts it down and then also starts grabbing a couple of items from the bag
and let me see, let me double check a couple again to procede.
Okay, she grabs out some things like honey and water and puts it down
and takes the water and starts for us off just kind of like like what's
the word for this, cleans in the room, Yeah, kind of clensing.
Starting to cleanse the room a bit, sets it down. Okay,
I don't know how much time we have, so I think we need to
start now. And there's not a ritual, just like at least like reading
up on what else we need to do about it. And so if you
can just keep an eye on the canister while we look into the book.
Oh yeah, I have to say, I'm a little worried that we might
just have to go with it if it comes well. Either way, that
gin needs to be outside of the canister when you do it. If it
means we release it when we're ready or it comes out on its own,
we have to some timeime until then to at least figure out some more if
we can se who knows. Okay, well, all right, let's start
setting it up at least, and then we can kind of continue as we
know more. Okay, all right, preparation rich will look like I mean,
it's honestly not too much more. It's basically so from what I read,
there's three stages. Like I said, so, first stage includes removing
any distractions, which we've done like music, constituents, and golden jewelry.
Uh that. Then they also remove any pictures in the room, allowing for
angels to enter. That tells the client in the family that everything happens by
God's will and that he or she's merely a mediator. Also mentioned that other
forms of feelings, such as by sorcery or not, are not acceptable to
Islam. In the second stage, the healer determines if the client is possessed
or not and tries to enter a dialogue with the spirit. So that is
the next stage. We have completed stage one. You gotta talk to her.
Hi, you know, just an not just a nice little date.
You know, how are you doing? How's the spirit? What's going on?
What's good? But how did you like to achieve that? Alia?
I think at that point I Alia turns to Tall he goes talt you captain
two. We I cannot promise that we will be able to even translate an
additional sentence. More. It took me eight hours to translate what I have
so far. If you think we don't have time and we may need to
do it, we may just need to do it. I don't know.
I think if if that's all we can really trans late, then you might
just have to do it. Wait, do you have to talk to her
or the jin? Okay, I'll let you do that talking. We probably
will have to find out a way to restrain uh, the person the mater
because from the last himy I have her, she was a little more of
a wild child. I look at soul. Hey, Saul, I found
your job. Oh fuck, hey, you wanted to help, right,
Yeah, yeah, sure you can help. So you're telling me I gotta
pin down the demon. You gotta pin down the Morrow with the demon inside
of her? Am I able to even and I make the motion of like
touching, like can I even? Like I don't know what you should be
able to touch? Once you can tell? I mean it was she was
still corporeal. There was no like in corporeal in this that you could touch
her. The last time she like crawled on the ceiling for example, do
I do I need like some are like do I need a suit? At
you? I mean that's up to you. You don't really know what you're
going in for. Some restraints might be helpful. Are you doing this now?
Wait? In the next few minutes, probably okay, okay, okay,
the room wait, okay, Malik to me or Soul bolts past you.
Where are you going? I wanted my room to get my armor.
You go in, Soul you here still put his armor on. He comes
in, probably with being the dumb as it he is. I'm gonna rip
the curtains and like any bed sheets and just wrap myself, bind your hands
so that you can't be scratched in your neck, and like make sure that
you're like sure you're making this some more tactical, but realistically he just is
just wrapping himself because he'sn't okay? Can I just say that imagery I got
instead was like, are we bring Birke to a baby or something? Are
you having like sheets like like the modesty sheets? Also wrapping his head just
so you see, I'm guessing you get some kind of handcuffs or some kind
of restraints. I should have some chains for like like just gear and stuff
like that. Okay, so you grab some stuff to bind her. Yeah,
it's a mere bleak. Soul crosses back out of his room, fully
clad in armor, bound to the nines with restraints, chains and handcuffs and
hands? What is happening? Goodbye? And how you run past? What
the fuck is going on in the ship? I've only been gone for like
six months? What the honestly it was normal before you and Sue came back
on? Captain? What is going on? Do you need their help?
So we'll just blue and flew back. I opened the comps so everybody can
hear say, Okay, this is what's happening. The canister looks like it's
cracking. Obviously learned how to move itself. If Lamar breaks out, she
will try to seduce Malik and then kill him, turning herself into a full
demon. We're going to try to do the ritual to get this out because
I'm afraid that this canister is going to open whether we want to or not
anytime. Now, do you need my assistance? I mean that might be
great, but also you might want to stay with your brother. What's up
to you? Samir looks over to Malik. I fucking the more the merrier.
Nothing I can do. I guess I can stay here with you and
do what you let me. Yell at you for keeping secrets. Yeah,
is that going to make you feel better? No, I just go help,
go help. We're going to get their back, right, I mean,
man, who knows at this point? I really hope. So we're
going to get their back, and like I think Samir is gonna like do
that brotherly like tap to the face, you know, little jim slap and
take off and had had to meet up with the rest. You find the
rest of the crew staring at this container. Alie has a few things out.
The book is present, soul is bound to the nines and has some
restraints, and they seem to be unsure of what to do next. Mardie,
Okay, all right, uh, you know, okay, it's it's
so good. It's so good. I love your Paul. Uh and then
uh so at that point that turns the tamor kind of gives him an NodD,
turns the tath and goes, are you ready? If I got the
window? Do we do? I see that we're still audoiation? Oh y'all
still docked in part? Yeah? Look, I look at talent like captain,
Yeah, I don't mean it, interject and I point out the window.
Sally, what percentage are we on refueling? Refueling? Ninety six percent?
So do you want to wait until we're finished or T minus twenty minutes?
Oh? Yeah? Do you think we have twenty minutes before this thing
blows? It's not like it has a sticking time bomb on this, but
hopefully I should. I think we can manage twenty minutes. We have a
concept. Are you just gonna go float out in space? I can?
I can I artifice this? Can I artifice the item? Can I learn
more about the artifact itself and it's level of stability? The container? You
mean, the container? You can sure? Try? Go ahead, don't
forget your glasses and roll? Yeah, and your glasses go ahead and roll?
If you would like an artificer. Check yes, and I do,
thank you, thank you for I completely forgot that's in your head. You
get all this other built in tech and it's like, you know, you
get your cool other toys, and you forget that you're handy dad, your
drivers really good. Yeah. Yeah, let's let's go ahead and too mere
kind of like flicks a little bit there. As you flip through, you
see a couple of things. The energy wave kind of form this thing is.
It's like there's a small sun on the inside. You can see it
kind of ebbing and flowing and moving. There's a vast amount of energy being
trapped into something. Go ahead and get the roll and that's just like what
your eyeball see. Yeah, so that so that's a mistake to activate the
classic do I get? I get when you activate your glasses. I get
points too, don't know. I do believe you do. I get one
darkness point, at at least one darkness point because I'm used, because we'll
just say the one. I need to keep track of that because, by
the way, every time to me, I get very scared. Oh it
hasn't happened yet. It's fine, okay, all right, that's pretty good.
You I would say, you lay hands on the item, you can
feel its vibration and it's energy. But you kind of get close to it
and you close your eyes and you try to listen. Artifacts speak, That
is how you hear them. They make noise, they sing, they ring
out into the atmosphere, and you just have to find the right channel.
You have to listen, and everything around you souls chatter, aaliyah and towels.
Chatter begins to dissipate, like going underwater, and you kind of tune
into the sound of what's in this jar. You're crying, Maura crying,
and the heavy breathing of something beast you but breath nonetheless. But the container
itself has a long history and images kind of flash before your eyes. It
was never intended told a jin, it was something else first, It was
a container are created by someone and you can kind of see this ritual.
There are some mystics around. There's a body, a person laid out on
a slab, and they draw from this person life force, essence, and
through this group of people faces kind of shadow, shroud in shadow from the
hoods that they wear, they drop life into this container. You let that
life out. It's what brought Shoali back. But this container, it feels
like it's going to burst. It is or was not really meant for such
a creature, for such a thing, and it definitely wasn't meant for two
souls. It to me, Yeah, it's it's basically get a pop okay
to me? Or just like that now it needs to be now, this
was not meant to hold both be So and the jan Yes, we should
get started on it. Uh, let you man know what you want then,
and uh, I guess we opened the can Oh, I'll do it
all yet, you can just be ready. Let me not chip so what
I'm gonna prep myself. I don't know if there's like a role play version
of overall somebody. Uh do you close the door to the room? Oh?
Yes, that is locked. Okay, Malik, you hear the door
to your room closed for the first time since all of the happenings. I
opened the colms so he can hear what's happening in the room. You can't
be there, at least you can hear it. How when's the canister?
Yeah? Oh god, okay, to your surprise, when you first open
it up, there is almost an anticlimactic beginning from the jar spills, sand
pours out at your feet, and there's a moment where you might even look
into canister. It's empty and hollow, and nothing really happens, and all
of you look around, and then the sand begins to and it begins to
pick up inside of this space, making it difficult for all of you to
see as if a minor sandstorm and a form takes uh, well, a
form takes form right in front of you, that being that of Lamara on
all fours, rather feral. She still wears Malik's armor. It looks like
her except for the jet black eyes and the jaggie the teeth. There's a
scream of bloody murder that escapes from her mouth. And I'm going to give
you all a second to do something. I'm sorry, I'm a pounce on
a pounce on it. Okay, make a decks check or an agility.
I'll give you an agility. She is going to do the same with jin
stats. I just want you to know that bollocks, all right, I
failed say tell also try to try to help out with them. Well,
she felt hardcore too. You're up for a dexterity no pressure. Shoot,
I don't have dexterity. I have agility though. That's okay. You can
just roll flat agility. Okay, oh un success success from Tao. This
thing kind of like around soul stuls like trying to grab her. She's not
doing very good. They're kind of entangled. But it's tal that you managed
to like really get your arms around this body. Alia, Saul, you
see as Tao grabs her, what do you do? What do you do
with her when you kind of grapple her all the way around? I'm guessing
like pin her arms to her side. Yeah, I kind of pin her
arms to her side and just try to hold her as sturdy as I can
in front of Alia. Okay, you see something happen. This feral creature
what's Tao kind of binds her and feel and she feels like there's no way
out. Her face changes, it softens, her teeth no longer sharp,
her eyes blue and full and whelped of tears. And Lamar's voice rings out,
help me, Malik, they're hurting me, rings out over calms the
sound of your girlfriend, somebody's voice that you haven't heard in a very very
long time, followed by She's like, Malik, you need to stay away.
Please. Malik sits still at the table in the mess hall and he
pulls out his tablet. It sees the last screen that was on there,
which is a read receipt from the whoever makes for the guards on this space
station, and then he closes that tab, slides over a few things to
access the com station, and he slides the open communications to off and then
closes the scream What was the screams of your girlfriend go absolutely silent and instead
now they're muffled down a hallway behind a sealed door. She screams and she
screams. Eventually she gives up. Talent needs to make a force check to
hold continue to hold her. She's gonna make one against you. Holy gosh,
I wanted to praise icons, but I don't think that that will do
anything. Happened gonna go Ye. There's this moment where again Ali is soul.
You see it, it looks like Lamar. Well, Lee Seul recognizes
Lamar. She she cries and she weeps and she begs for Malik while while
Tau keeps her bound. And then when the calms go silent, it's like
she knows and there's blue eyes turned jet black again, as if someone dripped
ink right into them. Her teeth go sharp. She smiles a wicked grin,
and she burst free, knocking Tale backwards into a wall. There's a
wave of energy that burst forth out from all like all of you. Yeah,
she cleans up the ceiling. Okay, okay. She jumps in all
fours on the ceiling. Her head turns around backwards, now looking down at
all of you. Oh. Audio gets up and looks straight at the at
the gin, right into its eyes, and goes, if you can come
down, you can talk please. I know you have your own agenda.
The least we can do is at least have a conversation. There's no need
for force. Make an empathy check. You're trying to reason with the gin,
not just any gin either. God, please empathy. I have five
empathy points. You can you can reroll, you can totally reroll. I'll
take gold for it. Okay, yes, okay, okay. Oh and
yes, I know we still have a corruption bo y arm saving it.
Just just hold your works, just just hold hold your worses. Okay.
There's, like I said, a wicked laugh that pours from her head,
which is turned around almost backwards, and a voice comes out of Lamara's mouth,
though it doesn't mouth words. There's just a gaping hole filled with sound,
and that voice says, I see that someone has had experience with the
gin silly little mystics in over their heads. You've already lost, Lamara,
she's mine. Let us go and I'll let you live. You know that
this is not going to stop with just this one person. Can I at
least come down and reason with you? Let me come in. I want
to see him, just one look at him, that thing that she loves
so much. Am I a happening? Am I able to make a move
or is it like you totally can. She's a bit distracted right now talking
to Alia. How high is the ceiling? I mean it's your bedroom,
so yeah, so like I would say, at least seven to eight feet
like you have, Like Alia could probably what I would like. While she's
distracted with the conversation, I want to see if I can like kick off
the wall and use the momentum to like lock in her head and just try
to like pull her down off the ceiling into the land on top of her.
Okay, Hey, I'm gonna have you make another dexterity check. All
right, come on, so will you This is gonna be observation based to
see if she can see you jumping at her. Does that make sense right,
I'll make a roll right here, Oh fudge monkeys. Okay, Okay,
she doesn't, she's she's okay. She's talking, uh, you know,
head turned kind of around backwards, and she's looking right at Ali and
she's having this conversation, and you still hear her say, I just want
to see him, that memory that I so crushed out of her little mind
and ripped from her heart. I want to see him in flesh and blood.
And it's about this time that Soul gets kind of a running start and
parkours off the wall pargo Pargoer's operall and dives towards like jumps up towards the
ceiling and rips her free. The two of them go flying across the room
in a grapple and lands, the two of them like land on Malik's bed.
Kink, sorry can tell at that point, try to just help restrain,
like I grabbed the ankles and I need a few more force checks to
put her in restraints. Will say, is that for me too? M
M? Unless you want town to try to do it buy yourself. No,
no, no, I mean each of you to make a force check.
I got one one. Okay, she's going to try to sneaky peek
free. Oh god, uh, this is based on her strength. Okay.
She fas the two of them, her feet are kicking and wailing,
but the two of you kind of have her arms and you bind her to
what is basically the headboard of the bed or like the I have some I
have some hyper rope even better. You can see it gets tied around her
wrist. But as she's like pulling and snarling, and she's like, I
will kill all of you when I'm done, I'm gonna eat him piece by
piece, flesh by flesh. I will consume his bones and his meat.
Alia runs like as she's like uh, rushes forward and in her hands is
the water and the honey which she's mixing into her palms, and then she
puts it on her forehead, stays right into her eyes and goes not to
the demon, and she kind of wails as you put the Yeah, you
put the honey in the water, and she kind of screams out, Malik
that you cannot fail to hear a scream that breaches through the metal walls.
Such a shit head, Malik, I think, man, donna hit you.
I know this is my idea is deep dot. I'm gonna I'm gonna
put on I'm gonna put on my my, my, my, my GM
pants. Here for a second, what do I need to roll? Uh?
To avoid mind point damage? This is? This would be against your
will in that regard, right, and that what it is. So wits,
wits, That's what it is. Wits. So your mind points are
raised on your wits. Yeah, so I think this is actually more your
empathy. So would it be a manipulation check? Yeah, she's trying to
manipulate you. Okay, So I'm gonna roll that and see if I cannot.
Okay, they urged to okay. Yeah, so uh, I think
Malik gray his teeth and he picks up his ball of noodles and his warm
beer, and he like looks at the hallway that everyone kept running in and
out of, and then turns towards the stairs and walks towards the cockpit more
distance, and the camera then cuts again behind metal walls. She is wailing
and screeching. The some would call it succubus, others a demon jin different
words, same meaning. She rips at Lamara. You can see is Lamara
pulls on the hyperobic cuts into her wrists a little bit. She bleeds.
You can see. You can see in her chest what we would like into
a hand. Claws press against the inside out as it tries to rip her
open. This time, Lamar's screams, not the monster, Lamara, It'll
be okay. We're going to get you out. The physical pain. It
will go away. Her head turns to you. You see strong blue eyes
to mirror and she weeps blood and she swears movie. MR's gonna put his
hand over her chest like where her heart is. He's here, he's with
you. Hold on to him there, you'll be able to hold on to
him soon. A cruel laugh. Her eyes fell jet black again, and
you feel a hand from inside her chest press against yours on the other side
of fleshy skin. It to mirror like repects back by the way content warning,
this is a horror again. I would call this cosmic horror and possible
smooches if all goes well, what the box just said that in chat and
spooches. Yeah, yes, this would be that horror we talk about the
creature laughs and Welch's as Aliah more water. Honey, Ali is chanting,
tell us, allie, she's she's she's pressed her. Oh I don't know
the chats I chat try to read from the book. Yes, well,
she's pretty much whatever. She she doesn't know what she's saying. She's trying
her level best. But I'm just reading an ancient language, because that's what
this is. Some have you make a culture check to see can you can
you stay on the page. I imagine somebody's holding the book twel or to
me. Okay, there we go, yea, all right, why now,
yeah, that's okay. You're trying to read this thing. She is
like snarling and fighting, she's spitting, she's saying horrible things. She reminds
you that Lamar is already dead, that you can't save her no matter what
you do. No matter what you do, you can't save her. I
still am going to have you role a mysticability check. You failed your language
check, so you're gonna take a negative one to this role. Okay,
Oh I can help at all. I'm gonna have Ali make the first Well,
if you want to help Alia could basically negate the negative one and just
make a regular check. Is how the help would would manifest. Yeah,
twe grabs your hand, You feel that like strong brace connection to mirror.
Would you like to grab hands too? Okay, you can take a pleasant
one god ya? Okay? Plus one positive and myst come on? Yeah,
all right, one success. Something happens the three of you grab hands,
and Alia fumbles for just a second over her words, and and there's
a panic and the creature laughs, and then Alia finishes the page. Twe
flips it and something about whatever tall Alia finished forces this creature to bind,
and Lumar's back arches. The whole body comes up off of the bed.
The ropes are at their most tight feet now bound. I'm sure either soul's
holding them so she doesn't like float away. Basically as she's screaming and squelching,
and you can see the gin in her chest fighting, pressing, trying
to find a way out. You hear it break a rib as it smashes
against one side of her body. Lamar screams. The monster screams, you
have it bound. Now you have to rip it from her roll again like
how like physic? Okay, you feel like it's like for you because you're
you're the one, like I guess, maintaining this. You feel your hand
on her head and it's almost like whatever's in here has connected itself to your
palm. So I need another mystic power check because there's a possibility you can
actually pull this thing. You've seen this before, you think you've seen shorely
do it kind of yes, one success. You start to remove your hand
and you can hear her choking, now unable to breathe as this kind of
black, viscous smoke begins to pour out of the facial orphices, ears,
nose, eyes, mouth of Lamar, and he you begin to kind of
remove the gin from Lamar's body. Her body is shaking and quelching. She's
maybe not well or going to be well, But how how bad? How
mean? Do I want to be? Dot? Dot be mean? Okay,
do we have a corruption do what you want? We have a corruption
bar There's this moment as as Alia like sucks this black darkness out of Lamar
and her body was limp and falls to the bed three or four feet just
done. She bleeds from her eyes, from her ears, from her wrists
and Aaliyah, you hold before you this kind of undulating black cloud of something.
You don't have a container. You cleared this room. I need you
to make a witch check. Actually, I'm going to have all three of
you that are connected to this are going to make a witch check. That's
that is a bad idea. Oh nope, ah, yes, yes,
give me all four of you in this nd yep yep. So first of
all, the canister didn't break. Tal opened it so tack behind unstable.
You can't put it back. It's gonna burst open. That's what we learned
that canister has done to U. I want to give you another darkness point.
That's up to you. What I just say. One thing though,
like, uh that it can be any canister because surely put it in a
water flask the last time she put it in like a ceramic water jug.
Yeah, like so something that you carries something. So I will say this
soul is not like soul's not directly connected. So so you actually are not
going to take any damage. But you can see the three of them,
all three of you are going to take three points of damage to your mind
track, your mind points. It is difficult to hold an ancient. Oh,
I have a question no, no, it's the same questions. Oh
no, it's like our minds are linked or something. Oh no, So
when for the audience, When Tamir takes mind damage, so does Twel.
When Twel takes mind damage, so does Tamir. Oh my god, you've
got to be kidding me. So each of you take three, four each
other. So you take six total towels down. Tal goes limp to the
floor. Alia. This undulating ball is beginning to reach out. You can
see it. You're losing its containment, Tamir, Soul, Ali it is.
It is taking everything in you to just keep it right here. I'm
gonna yell at Alia, but what are you doing anything? Soul? Would
you like to go get a container? Okay? Clarification on container? Does
it have to be large? I guess technically not. It just needs to
be a container that contained. Is that's strong enough to contain? Decision?
No? No, let me just see if I have anything on me.
That's nope, I got bub kiss and find something. A mercury cell is
not be enough right, No, and it's probably full, it's not empty.
Uh, it's I feel like I should stay in the hold the Lemara.
So I'm can I look at it to say how amazing would it have
been if we can't put it in a Marcy cell? Just because now you
have a gin bullet? Can I if I look at ta mirror, does
he look okay? Like? Does he look movable? Like? Is he
to mirror? Is up? He's I mean, oh, not great,
but he is still up? He is fine? All right? Since I
seem fine because I don't think very concerned about I'm gonna I'm gonna like just
like just do everything I can to hold Lamara down, and I'm just gonna
look at Tamir and be like, run grab something so Lamara's body is limpus
can be oh, oh, there's like an undulating black ball of goop that
you pulled from Lamar's body that Tamir and Alia are now kind of containing.
It's about the size of a basketball, but they need something to put it
in, okay, And that if that's the case, I guess I'll there
there's no need for me, So I'm gonna probably just run get Lamar out
of here now, Okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna rag doll pick her up
and just run out with Lamar or Tao. I think I would take Lamara.
You're gonna take Lamara, not Tao. Okay, I think because Tamir
yelled at me. Would I mean we take both. You could make a
force check to see if you can grab them both. I'll try that.
I'll try that. You'll easily be able to get one. But if you
want to get to you just need a success. I'm gonna try to do
two to carry them both. Fuck, I'm giving you another darkness point.
I'm sorry, get them out of there. Mike just broke it down,
Like you don't even need to like force her out right. She's like at
the point where she can. She's not unconscious, she's just like, yeah,
she's having what is basically an anxiety or mental breakdown in some way.
There's like she's not like passed out. Towel's just she crumpled to the floor
in there again, is in like the fetal position, just kind of rocking.
So you grab maybe you grab Towel's arm to like help her up and
get her out, and you're able to toss Lamara over your shoulder as you
exit the room. Malik Seul rounds the corner with Lamara's body and Towel is
kind of being drug. I wouldn't say against her will, just she seems
to be struggling, tears just down her face. He looks at twel for
a second and then looks at like Seul, Seul. Do you look panicked?
What does Seul look like? I don't think so. I don't think
he'd be panicked. He's more because this is more of like orders, So
he's not really panic, but he's definitely not like yeah, medical bay,
Yeah he's he's He walks towards you like he drops whatever he's holding, which
would be the bowl of noodles and an open half drinking war real quick,
I would not be heading to medical bay. I just wanted to get them
out of the room. And as soon as they're basically out of the room,
I'm much drop them and look for a container. Yeah, you lay
Lamara down like this big main table and begin searching for a container. This
is a mess haul. There are various kinds of containers. I'm just pick
whatever is the closest. Hell. If it's tupperware, I'll grab topperware.
Uh, the closest container is a veggie mite can, a veggie paste can
that she oh it is it? Is open, but they just said container.
Okay, I don't think he's desk is it? Before I grabbed a
veggie and then get yelled at later on? Is there any other container that
has like a seal like a like a canister or yeah? Yeah, you
like, do you like swing open the fridge to find what is the essence
of Like milk in this case comes in like a container, like a bottled
container. I think, look, you jump all you dump all the Yeah,
it's kind of like a pickle jar, you dump all the liquid out
of it. I just pour it, pour it out as fast as you
can and exit as as I'm leaving one, I yell at my leak like
bodies, and then I just run. It runs around the corner, and
you're left with Tao, who, I imagine is what tell us what state
is talent. I was just got tears streaming from her eyes, and she's
just kind of standing there. That's it, she she It's it's a very
like almost the most blank look you've ever seen on her face. But also
I don't think you've ever seen her cry. Yeah. Uh. Malik walks
over uh and like picks up Lamara uh and then looks at at twel and
in probably equally disconcerting levels of like softness. He looks even says can you
walk? Come with me, and he starts to lead carry Lamara and lead
twel towards the trauma lab. Ohs, trauma Lab. We go. Soul
burst back in the room. Aliah, it's mere. I need you to
make another check to maintain a while Soul is gone. To get a container,
I need another mystic ability check in this case, Alia can take a
plus one from the help of Tamir to make it easy. Can can Tamir
reach out? Come on? Oh? Okay? Uh? What what when
you say reach out? I'm interested? What do you? What do you?
But he just accidentally went face to face with a new icon. You
did do you reach out to the machine? Yes? This this is for
Lamara. He would do anything for his brother. What do you say?
Time kind of stops, It slows down as you watch, kind of the
black tendril reaches out and Alias squishes it back in compressing this g gin into
a small ball about the size of a basketball or soccer ball. But it's
all very slow motion. As you reach out to to the machine, the
machine, the machine there might Quale qual what give me for the truthing once
again, and truthing it again and truth. But they need your help.
But they need your help, they need your free the soul, free the
soul Spanish Spanish, this being, this being, who would harms, so
many harms, so many harms, who would harm my brothers, har my
brothers. And then the return the ten ten. I will serve you,
I will serve you. I will serve you of your choosing, of your
choosing, of your choosing. There is an extended pause, and then her
voice comes through, loud and clear. First the clanking of gears. You
do not see her, but instead she places something in your hand. Her
voice simply says, once a follower of the deck, hand, now a
follower of the machine. Find the other followers to me. This is the
promise you make to me, and I will give you what you need to
contain this beast Stevia. Door central underneath Neopa, sorry, Neopatra. There
you will find life minded. There you will worship me. And as time
speeds up again and you watch Alila compress this ball of energy. Down in
your hand is a top shaped like a bottle stopper. And then the door
walks Soul as soon as he enters. Aliyah, you've watched somebody do this
before. You know exactly what it takes to cram as in into a container.
You've trained your whole life for this, and Alia spins and pushes it
forward. Soul, I need you to make a force check to stay on
your feet. Where's that button? Force? Force, force, source force.
It's all right, that's okay. It doesn't it doesn't fail. You
don't fail. It just knocks you off your feet. The force of Alia
throwing this black ball of gin. It into the container and knocks you backwards
and smashes you into the wall with the weight of the bottle as it fills.
This clear container fills with black liquid now literally velvet black and full to
mir Do you stop it? You muted? I need it. Yeah,
we at least whatever you said, we didn't manage toast test. There we
go. Now we got now we got you a loud and clear that's so
yeah. Uh the stopper in this hand. I still feel like time is
just sluggish with him at this Yeah, yes, absolutely, I would probably
agree. There's a lot to take in m hm. But just feeling that
physical item now in a hand that had nothing in it before hearing the voice,
the orders Tamira will go ahead and place the stopper. You. Soul
is kind of crammed against the wall as this black viscousness is like being sucked
down a drain and into this bottle, and you clam a slam this stopper
that fits absolutely perfectly into what is kind of an oversize It kind of looks
like an oversized milk bottle. And as you do, this beautiful green top
is kind of what it looks like, begins to merge with the glass.
It burns, and it kind of embers, and it even gets hot in
your hands. Soul, you may have to drop it as it hits the
ground, and as it does, it closes off the end of the glass
bottle, sealing it shut and reshapes it into an absolutely perfect glass orb It
sits hovering kind of just above the ground between Seul's legs, and it's filled
with this black, smokey viscousness. Holy shit, there's a quiet that falls
over the ship except for, of course, holy shit, which what I
want because that's so perfect. Sorry, but the camera cuts two. Malik,
Yeah, Malik leads twel into the trauma lab and gingerly places the unconscious
Lamara down and basically the exact same position that Tamir was just in, and
he like while he's doing that, he kind of like grabbed like the I
assume there's some kind of stool in there, and he kind of like slides
the stool over and just like looks to Tale while he's like grabbing cables and
whatever. He says, sit please, And as he's like getting Lamara situated,
he walks over to one of the containers, like one of the counters,
and again almost almost in normal Malik style, he kind of like looks
over his shoulder at Talel and like side eyeser and then opens the bottom drawer
and you hear like a as something inside the drawer opens and a light snap,
and then he closes the drawer and he hands her a piece of chocolate
and says, eat this, and then he goes back over to Lamara and
begins to continue to deal with Medic. First Bagamedic Carny check take A plus
one because you are inside of the actual label. Is the trauma lab a
plus three? I think it's a plus three? I wrote this down med
like super oh I do have a trauma We do have a trauma lab.
I think it's actually a plus two. Okay, if I remember correctly,
that sounds. That sounds good to me. Where is it? It's on
here? Yeah, I definitely have a written I just I was a goober
didn't put what the bonus was. I think it's a plus two. That
sounds that's my fault. This is for a towel. You said, this
is for twel failure. Tell the chocolate's good, but you don't feel better.
That's fine. That's how I can do being told to sit in a
chair. Tell just quietly goes over it, just nibbles on the chocolate and
still crying. Yeah, probably staring at lue. Mara's like limp body.
Her wrists, her ankles are all bleeding, her ears, her nose.
All right, I'm gonna roll for Lamara, I assume. Yeah, if
you're trying to tend her in some weight, I'm going to give you a
darkness point great, cool, cool, cool cool two success. Okay,
that is significantly better. You are able to run diagnostics on her. It's
the first thing. Diagnostics say, she is breathing, her heart rate is
a little low, and she's lost quite a lot of blood. She has
some major internal bleeding, a few fractured ribs, and uh yeah, that's
what you can kind of tell from this. You are able to patch her
wrist and stop the bleeding the wrist and the ankles and kind of you can
see that her nose has stopped, her ears have stoped. Most of that
is dry. Imagine you put her on an IV of some kind, like
a drip so dot, I'm gonna I'm gonna roll several more dice here because
we were fucking way off. How much were we on trauma laps plus four?
Oh damn yes, give me two more for twel and then two more
for Lamar. Yeah, so this is for twel no sixes, and then
for Lamar also no sixes. Okay, okay, So that's okay, that's
good to know. I actually, you know, let me, I'm gonna
put that right now on the plus four done bonus plus four. I'm writing
it down so we don't lose it. That's just crazy. She is very
weak, she's a bit emaciated. She's a lot thinner than you remember her.
It seems unkept and sold. Yeah. I think he's he's going to
do his best to take care of her in the same way like he was
doing too too Tamir, and like get her, uh situated. I'm trying
to figure out what the trauma lab actually has in it does what it has.
There's actually a pod that trauma labs actually there's a pod you can put
people in like that, Yeah, a medical pod. Yeah. So I
know that it has like one hundred treatments worth of stuff. Would that do
you think that would include? Because I know it has like TE doses and
M doses and that kind of thing. Do you think that would include,
uh, like universal blood? I would I mean I would say, so
you know, Lamara loves blood, That's true. She does have a weird
fascination with blood. Yeah, so I think he would He would reach into
another one of the like the lower cabinets, which is another cooler, and
pull out like a blood bag and in the same way, like he would
probably like hook that up and then the other side, much the same way
as he did to ta Mere a fluid bag, and then he would start
like, look, I think it would be like, because this is awkward
on every level, he would just start looking over twel But I think it
would just be awkward silence, just to make sure that she's physically okay.
Yeah, Malik's not good with feelings on a good day, so he can't
make you feel better, but he can make you physically not ill. So
I think once he has Lamara as best as he can get her, and
there's nothing else he can do except for weight, he like kind of looks
over twel and it's just an awkwardly quiet exchange. Yeah, there's like you
got to bind her ribs, you know, you would take like you you
see she's still wearing your arm or you take your armor off, and as
you finish up binding her wrist and getting her subtled, you see in one
hand clenched very tightly, like you almost have to pry her fingernails out of
her skin, is a small sliver of fabric. It's not any bigger or
larger than her hand, probably what's left of your scarf. It's worn and
fraight around the edges. You can see that the armor of yours that she
was wearing has he scratches all over it, as if she has been attacked.
You can see that she's got scratches on her body. You don't know
if they're from her, because she does have some DNA like under her nails,
or if that's from something else. Yeah, and then you're able to
kind of take a look at how does tell say anything while he kind of
looks you over, like checks your die eye diolation, you know, like
make sure there's some scratches or bleeding. As he starts checking over, I
think I wasn't injured. Yeah, right now? She all right, I
hope. So seemed to be successful. Where's everyone else dealing with it?
So brought me out because I was apparently useless. M She kind of just
sinks a little further and down on the stool, like she she's not a
big person, but she seems to shrink a little. Yeah, like Tale
is just curling into herself. At this point, I think he like pulls
out another stool and like sits at the side of the table where where Lamara
is and kind of faces uh twel uh and he's he I think he's holding
that that that scrap of fabric and he says, thank you, gotta take
care of my crew. Yeah, this is a little bit beyond that,
and you know it is mar Is just as punch a part of this ship
as you are as I am. Yeah, but rescuing me was inconvenient,
Rescuing Seoul was a little more than that, and rescuing her was way more
than that. So thank you, Malik. I know we don't get along,
but whether you like it or not, you're part of my family now.
So is Soul, so is Namara, so is all Yah, and
frankly, I'm madly in love with your brothers. So you're just gonna have
to deal with me. Gross uh. For the record, this is us
getting along. I guess it depends on your definition of getting along. There's
a several months I was gone. That's normal. I hadn't seem to me
here in months before we showed up on your ship. So it's either this
or nothing. Like Literally, Hell breaks the last piece of chocolate in half
and offers it to the leak. He takes the chocolate, Sea eats chocolate.
Now you're muted, but I'm sure it's awesome. Now you can clear
one point of stress. Perfect And at that when he when he puts the
chocolate in, his mom says, you know, I can't say for sure
about Tamror, but I prefer this eating chocolate. You being here. You
get on my nerves. But he's happier when you're around. Yeah, yeah,
I'll stick around. The camera cuts down to the Leak's empty bedroom.
Stuff still lines the hallways. But Aaliyah, Tamir and Seul, you all
have this globe, this this kind of crystal ball glass sphere that has this
imbering dark smoke on the inside. I'm gonna give you a chance to do
something and then we'll close out. Oh yeah, looks up and looks out
of there, because how could you have some tea here? How about you?
Fuck? Yeah, the three of you maybe go together this this strange
ball in hand, this crystal ball in hand. And as you make it
back to the mess hall, you hear the voice of Sally, captain and
crew of the Defiant. We have a visitor. It looks like Station security
is outside our main doors. Should I let them in? I'll go answer
the door. Don't let them until I get there, Copy, do not
let them in until you arrive. Right as you arrive at that door,
tw as slow as it is, the door slides open and there stands to
security officers. They carry guns, new guns, and one of them says,
are you tal Tuma? Unfortunately. I am sorry to disturb you.
I know fueling has just finished, but we got word that we are to
search every ship in the vicinity. There has been attack on a local prison
and we are looking for fugitives. We'd like to search the vessel please next
week, of course, because we're at time. Do they say that part?
They definitely do. Because we're at time, we have to do that
next week. Can we just leave it there? Man? Yeah. Void
