let's see bunya Tyler not but oh my god? Who's that? Tyler?
Tyler? What happened last time? Didn't like you? Diddy? Did that?
Didn't you? Yeah? Okay U a little bit? Okay, tim?
What happened last time? What happened last time? What happened last time?
Let's see we we left the city. Uh we made sure that a
lady Noam didn't leave without the explosive potatoes that she had. Uh oh yeah,
yeah. The old lady that kept all that was the line with explosive
potato with explosive bombs that she thought with potatoes yep. And then when we
left, we decided. We traveled for a bit and made camp. None
of us really opened up to each other, and then our navigator went off
to take a bath and then got promptly attacked by a a water elemental,
which we went and went to go rescue her. And we tried to make
him leave us alone, but he just said no and decided, so we
ended his life and alone and behold, we went back to the camp and
uh. And then she also talked to I'm forgetting names right now, I'm
sorry, and about who's like what she was, and how they're the same,
how she could teach him. Yeah, she gave him an option to
be like, hey, I could show you if you like, what you
can do, but you're gonna have to obviously devour souls to do it.
Yeah, and and and there we're gonna yeah, you get you get Okay,
I'm gonna start actually giving people stuff now. So Tyler, last week,
since she did that, you get five temporary hit points. And she
did the uh that last week and tay if you get five temperary hit points
for today as well, all right, let me get my character sheet because
it's not for some reason, So whoever does the whoever does this, from
now on, we'll be getting five temper hit points for the episode, so
that would be that could be used in obviously combat or whatnot, but not
every episode is gonna have combat. So if you don't get to use the
five extra points, oh well, but you have them there just in case
combat arise, because you never know what's going to happen in the world of
Avatira, or you get poisoned that too, or you get poisoned if you
get any poison damage is taken in any way, those five points will be
taken before, of course, as temporary points work, so we pick up.
Of course, we're as you can see the players the map that beholds
you not be on the screen as well, or the watchers at home.
There's thirteen days left to get to well in the morning, it'll be thirteen
days left to get to the next harbor city to get the pirate ship or
it'll be taken. So yeah, thirteen days left, and you guys are
on the singing planes about a good days away from the Skull Harbor, and
you're close. You're not too far from the Singing River, one of the
major rivers that flows through the island, but you're about maybe like a half
a day's walk there, and there's also a town along the river called Song's
Mouth, which you could reach. Did we passed by any road signs leading
to any of the other cities? No? No, not no, not
to Asthmar or New Crest Hill. No interesting, Okay, no, I
know it's a little sush, a little fish. But yes, so you
guys went between two small towns, but you never really got any into intalation
into it. You never saw any signs that leading to them. So y'all
kept going. Y'all are almost at the Singing River, which the closest down
to that would be Song's Mouth, So that would be the next that would
be the closest town to y'all if y'all end up going down that route,
which I'm sure Scarlett, oh, we'll be like, oh my god,
let's go to a town and like, I don't know, gets some of
my food or something, you know, who knows. Crazy. Yeah,
So that's totally not weird, Like what's gonna happen? So many things could
happen, like, oh my god, so I think where we left off,
that's not weird at all. No, I'm I'm not being suspicious at
all. I am a pure angelic being of goodness and happiness. I've never
done anything, and I've never done anything corrected or evil in any way,
or done anything to play. You know, my things have been nothing but
cheery and jelly beans and love an infection. Sorry, sorry, you're lucky
at that. Our viewers can't even see us, because if they can see
us, they would just see what a mess we are. Sorry, I
I choked on water and uh uh tuberculiar losis. Tuberculiar losis. Wow,
that's a new one. Had add to my list of diseases to give y'all
what shut the fuck up? Anyway? So we pick up right where we
ended because Tama never gave Scarlet her answer. Scarlett has offered you, Tama,
a way to learn and uh to learn how to get more abilities,
to unlock these abilities as well as teach you how to use them. Did
you take up her offer? As in like, do you want to learn
how to steal souls? And munch on them. Well, I mean those
are conversation lasts up. So she was just like, you know, she
was offering to show you how to unlock these abilities as well as teaching how
to use them. And also there might have been ahead of the powering souls
potentially, but like, they're not going to vow your group's souls. Mm
hmm, never doubt that would be too suspicious. Don't be suspicious, don't
be suspicious. Then she harry problems that she's not going to de vour anyone's
souls in the grove because I mean her at or she's obviously has goals for
this getting to getting too said ship, because she's not going to vow anybody
here well in the group anyway. But unless she gave you an offer to
unlock new abilities that you could get to take up her offer of being under
taken under her wing to learn more about your kind that your home hasn't taught
you for whatever reason. Oh you had to twist and knife deep. Yes,
Also, so probably isn't into this kind of thing. And I'm like,
if it'll help me get back, and she smiles and she's and of
course you did tell her that you while you were going back, right,
I think it's all right. Vengeance. She smiles, and she says,
I will happily help you, and these abilities will could be very useful for
you on your journey back home. And they're bringing upon vengeance if you desire,
and she kind of looks out on that a nice smile. It's almost
kind of twisted like and very like, oh my god, I'm gonna teach
this this, this nopie a thing or two. I'm won't watch them flourish.
Oh my god. So that happens and everyone else, you guys are
surrounded by the fire. Scarlet looks over you Tom and be like, okay,
you can go ahead and go to sleep, sleep for the night.
I will watch over the camp for the night while you while you all are
sleeping, because she obviously she's like as old as I am, and you
will soon find out after a certain point you don't really need sleep anymore.
So you're more welcome to go to go to bed like your crew, and
I will watch over the camp for everybody, all righty then and then I
go back to you know, go to sleep. Okay, See you walk
back to the fire where everyone else is at. Are you all, is
everyone else asleep or is there still like a few of you awake, or
what's happened before y'all sleep? I think, oh Katie would probably still be
awake. Mm hmm. Okay. Free, after thoroughly drawing his fur,
curls up on the ground near the fire and falls asleep. All right,
so Fred goes asleep. Davy, as soon as I get my like all
the water out of my hair and stuff, I will also go to sleep.
Okay, all right, so Davy will go say, I imagine Davy
goes over the Free and just kind of burrows herself in his fur. Yeah.
Yeah, So Davy and Freed are sleep great, love that Talma.
Do you guys sleep right away? I stay up to ponder what gotten myself
into for up about a few minutes, and then I go to sleep.
Okay, okay, quote you go to sleep? All right, So everyone's
asleep except for our blood hunter, Kayden. Yeah. So Kayden, we'll
start we'll start with I'll start with you. So Kayden, you are what
are you doing starting at the fire looking at the night sky? Uh?
You see thinking about you? See Kayden, He's he's in his skivvies just
trying to get warm, waiting for them to dry. He kind of he
feels, is it is it cooler air? Is it still warm air?
Uh? It's it's dropped down in temperature as the night goes on. It's
probably like a good oh what sixty it's it's it's kind of it's cool,
but not like cold cold mm hmmm. Uh yeah, just kind of listens
around, kind of get an idea of its surroundings. Mm hmm. See
exactly where we you are mm hmm. Then he kind of looks in the
fire a little bit, just almost as if like someone is just blindly watching
TV just for no reason. He just kind of looks at the fire,
and then he twiddles his little pendency carries with him. Okay, roll me
wisdom, save what roll me a wisdom? Safe please, uh don't worry,
it's fine, okay, tie sign yeah okay, oh yeah, okay,
uh huh okay. So yeah, and we'll go with the first one.
Eight okay, cool, all right. So Asture, just gazing into
the fire, you kind of zone out. You just see the fire and
then everything goes dark. Everything around you vanishes, just pitch black darkness.
You don't see the little cliffs side, the kind of that your guy's gonna
kind of camp down in. You don't see your fellow travelers as well as
scarlet. You're surrounded by darkness and you look up and the only thing lighting
everything around you is just the moon, a nice pretty moon. And as
you kind of glance up at the moon, you hear your name being called,
and you look down on the because you're kind of like a little plateau's
this grass, nothing from miles, just flat land, and you see your
wife in front of you, very distraught. She runs up to you and
she's just and she grabs a hold of grabs a hold of your clothes,
and she's like, I'm glad, I'm glad I got hold of you.
Kayden, Is everything okay? You about to be in danger? I came
to warn you now so you can prepare yourself for it. Preparing myself for
what terrors beings of No? And she's like no, she's looking dead ass
fear in her eyes, like you haven't seen her this serious about something in
a long time, Like this is dead serious, and she's and she stares
right, She's like, there are things are you were going to come across
things that are un speakable that shouldn't be. And I have a tear.
You're gonna have to kill them? Well, you know me, I have
the skills and I got your faith, so how can I lose? She
smiles, smiles a little bit of relief. She's like, good, there's
gonna be five of them. You're gonna have to kill each and every one,
not just for your sake, but for the realms. Can I call
on you to do that? If it means protecting you, then I don't
see why I can't. And she lets out, oh all it to me,
Oh my God, like a little tear to my eye. And she
has a soft smile on her face. She's like, I'm counting on you.
And she lets go, and she starts walking back towards the moon.
And you see her walk back, and you're stell in this weird vision like
land. And as she goes further and further away, you notice the sky
starts turning red and the moon starts dividing itself into eight different moons in a
circle. Then each moon, each of the eight moons had a different phase
of the moon. It goes I can go play a circle like the cycle,
and in the middle of it. You see something big. You don't
know exactly what it is, but looks like some kind of construct comes through
in between the circle of the moons. You hear a small you hear a
chuckle coming from your wife in the distance, and you kinda and everything kind
of gets phazy. You hear a loud ringing in your ear, and then
you jump back to where you are at the fire with your compatriots around you,
and it leaves you kind of with an unsettling feeling. But that is
overrun by now you have a mission to defeat these terrors that you're going to
come across for the realm, because you don't want to disappoint your wife.
Oh of course, don mhm. But those eight moons kind of tacking your
brain. Okay, since you're back at the camp with the fire, and
what do you do now? You still sees Scarlet kind of just sitting at
the front, kind of just wiggling her foot, watching the night sky,
and you see everyone to sleep around you and the fire still going mm hmm
mm hmm, yeah, h m hm. Is Scarlet still around? Yeah,
she's still awake. She's at the front of So you guys are in
like a little concave of on this little cliff, so there's like a little
big old circle cut out of it basically, and she's at the front of
it, towards the road, kind of watching the night sky, keeping guarded
over everybody has as they sleep. Mm hmm. I walk over to her
mm hmm m. And she noticed notices you, and she's like, well,
take a seat if you like. She cant I choose you to sit
next to her or whatnot? Have you decide if you ever so choose to
thanks, And she looks back out at the road and she's like, I
can't sleep. I guess you could say that. Yeah, And how long
have you been on this island? Hm? Hmmm. I don't know.
I've lost count of how many years I've been here. I've been here for
quite some time. Yeah, uh, I have to be Frank of Olden
here for about about a year mm hmm. But I had no idea what
I was doing. I was get a license. I get a get a
hunter's license, and then I marry this beautiful girl. And then all of
a sudden she takes me all the way over to this place, and you
know, this is crazy. It is what it is. Hm. Hmm,
seems like fate h more of a not some I'm not. I'm not
describing my wife as a ball and chain. It's just more of that if
you call it fate. Fate has a funny way of showing itself as a
ball and chain. Well, maybe she brought you here for a particular reason.
I mean, I've heard rumors about hold On, so it's a little
funny. So I've heard rumors about her and her sisters. A trust me,
I've heard plenty of rumors about her about her sisters. What kind of
rumors, Uh, Well, that they just so happened to be, you
know, witches, or they happen to be ancient beings that represent time themselves,
you know, the the or they happen to be like the bubble,
bubble, toil, trouble and Hecita, hecate, hecta and all that interesting
theory rumors. No, she's she's cute, she's demure, she's calm,
She calm, she's like her eyes twinkle like stars in the sky. She
has a beautiful smile that can turn any stone cold heart into just a pure
red bleeding muscle. She she had she just doesn't. She just knows a
way to help me kind of like see a bigger picture. I don't know
how she does what she just does mm hm hm hm and the interesting and
then when I when she gets a little jealous, she does, she gets
a little beastly sometimes and she she she definitely likes to show who really wears
the pants and the relationship. But it's cool. Mhm mm hmmm, d
m all over the table. I'm surprised. I liked the idea that you
didn't either. You gave me the idea that she didn't tell him about any
about the three like that, like that a lot. Take that as you
will. That works for me. Okay, so so at to that point,
Charlotte Scarlett, Charlotte's Garlett kind of lasts laughs to herself because she,
I mean, she obviously knows your she knows your wife. She's on her
for a while, her sisters, and she's like, wow, that that
would just be crazy if they were. If they were it's all powerful,
which is that the that your these rumors claim to be. And she turns
her head and she's just like, yeah, no, I will say.
The weird part about it is that they have succuby employed in the inn.
I know t flings are a thing, uh huh, and I know that
demons are a thing. But the fact that succuby are willing to be employed
by them that are not just te fling folk that I know how they got
that happened. It was some literal deal with the devil or something. She's
just like, I don't know. I wouldn't say deal with the devil.
From what I know, those three gave those succuby and some incubi in their
home and protection, from what I'm told, So they like to offer up
their services to help around the tavern, that particular tavern and help them run
it make money. And then of course the sisters obviously have their hands in
other taverns and stuff around this island as well as many many others if you
have not been told, But they kind of spread their money around or walk
around to other to the others that they own with the help of the suckuby
and incubi. Yeah, that's the one thing I really like about her is
her charity, his heart. She always she always happens to see some stray,
hopeless or homeless animal that's sick or whatever. And I mean animal in
the like a figurative sense. Mm hmm. Happens she just cares for them.
Mhmm. I mean how she meet you. I would like, if
we're going to do that, I need some whiskey first. M And on
that note, you do you end up staying up the rest of the night.
Westcarlotte kind of just conversating a little bit. I do want to I
want us to ask for something, go for it. So you're familiar with
this place, right, mm hmmm, Like I said, I've been here
for quite some time. Yeah, I would say, yes, I I
am very I'm familiar with this place. I'm sorry. I can understand that
you were conning up for a little bit. Now, she says, I've
been here for quite some time, so yeah, I would say I know
this place pretty well, all right. And you've heard of maybe like myths
or legends or stories of all that imagine of course, okay, and potential
signs of a ending world or something like that, or I wouldn't say world,
and except for you know, the myth of the creation of Avatra and
how this place was created outside that nothing like a few, like a nothing
that results in a future doom. Okay, Now, I've heard that fairy
tale too. Oh, but what do you know about, say, unmentionable
horrors with a red moon that splits into eight different moons smaller ones. Uh
huh. She's like, hmm, what do you know about that? Or
if you've heard anything like that before? What kind of horrors are we talking?
Like? Kind of scary stuff we're talking here? Uh dm mm hmmm.
Uh can so Bradley doesn't remember a little bit exactly what you said,
but I said, yeah, so you would disclose to her that if she
has any information on like the on five terrors, because that's what she told
you about five different terrors, horrors, things of unimaginable fear, five of
them. So you relate that information to her five unmentionable abominational horrors, five
on this island. Well, well, over the table, sorry, over
the table. I was clarifying five yes, five unmentionable horrors, but specifically
five yes. Five. Give me a second to write in my notes please,
mm hmm. Can I can write and talk? Okay? But uh,
back on the table. Yeah, five unmentionable horrors followed by a big
red moon that's splits into some eight smaller red moons, but specifically five unmentionable
horrors. Hmmm, well, I mean there are legends of horrors being and
like the void or legend of a realm of these of those things, but
on this island, I haven't heard anything of that nature on this island.
Five is a bit strange. And she kind of thinks about it for a
second, and she's like, the only thing that mentions five beings or of
that name of not I want to say that nature, because there are more.
There are heroes, not horrors. There's a legend of five heroes that
are the key of holding back a potential threat. Now the threat and that
story was vague, but there's five heroes that are the key to holdtel holding
back this she puts air quotes threat. Again, the story is very vague.
But that's the only thing I could think about. Let's talk about anything
about five is those heroes? Okay? Just curious. And the moon nah,
I don't know anything about the moon and splits into eight and you said
different in each moon shows a different phase of the moon over the table.
D's what happened, Yes, broke up into eight different, eight smaller moons,
and each of the moon shows a different phase of it. Yes,
yeah, they each different. No, I don't. I don't know anything
about that. Huh. Weird. And how'd you find out about this?
I just read it some more? He mm hmm. Interesting, yeah,
really weird that there was some crazy old fermit outside the with a sign saying
the doom is the doom is near? Do me near? Okay? Uh,
yeah, that's so I know. Just begin your brain mm hmm,
she said, And she just ponders and things and over. It's like five
unlabitable terror horrors. All right, fine, yeah mm hmm okay. Uh.
So do you after you're up for a while still, you know,
chat and do whatever? Start up to night sky whatnot? Do you stay
up or do you go back to sleep? I head back to go get
make those and put them all uh and I offer to take the next one,
and she's like, no, don't worry about it. I I'm I'm
good. I will be more than happy to stay up, stay up all
night. And have you got have you guys sleep? You need the energy
more than I do. You positive? All right? So I put my
clothes back on the rack, and then I take off my underwear and then
I finally go into my sleeping head. Bet hey, wait, hey,
that's that's just how it is, all right. So you do all that
and then you go to sleep, and you sleep peacefully for the rest of
the night. Now onto you other three. You all are not so lucky
to sleep pacify for the rest of the night. Who wants to go first?
Mighty mon? Who wants to go first? Never mind? Let me
vote. So Freed, you are up. Time to put the boy in
the put the dog in the pound. Mm hmm. So Free do you
go to sleep and you sleep a peaceful dream of I don't know what what
would Free do to a bone? Run around chasing the bouncy ball? I
don't know. Surprisingly is dreaming about sailing the seas he's familiar with and brings
him it actually, despite his past, it brings him comfort. That works,
all right. So as you are sleeping, as Freed is sleeping about
being on a pirate ship, you open up the door to like, say,
you're going to the captain's quarters, and you're and you knock on the
door and whatever captain and then said dreams like come in. You open the
door to go in, and when you open the door, you walk in,
not looking and you don't. And you walk into this humongous library.
Let me go ahead and move you over. Your character will be at the
at the bottom right hand corner of the map. So you walk in,
and you're in this huge library that looks old, that has fires lit torches
all over the place, and you see towering walls of nothing but books,
and this place looks old and almost kind of out of this world. Uh,
you do get a sense that not necessarily you, but you get a
sense of something familiar about this, about this place. You can't quite put
your finger on it, but you're like, I know, I haven't been
here, so you kind of brush it off. And yeah, you're in
this humongous library. What do you do? All right? And everything seems
so real. Freed looks around and shock, he calls out, Captain Davy.
You hear nothing but like footsteps in the distance because somebody's walking. They
get closer and closer. And if you look to the look ahead of you,
and you see it opening between two bookshelves. As this man walks,
this young what looks to be a young man, probably like late twenties,
He walks into a view from the corner. He walks around and he's looking
at his faces in a book and he lowers the book and he looks at
youses. Oh hm hmm. I wasn't expecting you for a while. You
were, you were expecting me? Yes, please sit sits it and he
waves his hand in the chair, moves back for you to sit on.
Please take a seat, uh Free in a very dog like fashion, like
lowers his head, sniffs the arab it and then slowly like walks towards the
chair and he waves his hand. Another chair flies out and he sits in
that, and in the chair scoots him in as well as you. When
you sit, he's like, so I fine. I called you here today
too. Oh gosh, well my manners, Freed, is it? Yeah?
Would you like a drink? Food of any kind? However? Do
meat? Free? Uh Freed looks around and he's like, isn't this a
dream? How can we drink? Mm? The world's a very mystical place.
A lot of things happen that seems strange. As he kind of waves
his hand and a big old jug of need appears in front of you.
Huh okay, so Free drinks the meat. Okay, you started drinking the
need and the need tastes real, like you're actually drinking it, like you're
actually here, very vivid what you think is a dream. And he's it's
down. He sits back down in his chair, or this man's back down
in his chair as books kind of fly about him like someone's looking through kinfolipto
pages and stuff. He's like, you see, I called you here because
I have a job for you if you're willing to accept it. Okay,
all right, see He's like, so you see, you and me have
a connection that exceeds this world realm that we live in. Two of us
shouldn't be here. What do you mean, Oh? How do He's like,
how do I make this as simple as possible? It's like, God,
how would I over the over the How would I explain this? There
shouldn't be back on the table. He's like, there shouldn't be two of
us here. I don't know. He's like, I don't know how else
to explain without about overwhelming you, freed, it's quite dangerous that two of
us are here at the same time. All you need to know right this
very second is that we are both connected to something far greater than we can
comprehend. And the fact that there's two of us here connected to it.
It's not good for either one of us. So and as Charon moves out,
he gets up. We're going to fix this problem. But I need
you to find something for me. And what is that? A book?
A book, he nods, Not just any book, A book of good
and evil, two books that were combined as one many a millennia go,
or at least it feels like a millennia ago. A book that I created
when I came to this realm after quite some time. I took a book
and evil, a book of good and evil, and formed into one.
Now due to reasons I'm not going to disclose, I have lost said book
and to do what needs to be done, I need it, and you
are not too far from it, really, and he smiles, Yes,
Freed, you are near this. This book is on the island you are
located on currently, and I don't and I'm not going to tell you exactly
where it's at, but it will make it self known to you because you
will come across it. All I asked you to do is take the book,
protect it and bring it back to me on your long journey. Don't
worry about locations or anything of that matter. We will cross paths at some
point we are destined to. But I asked you to go get the book.
Okay, how will I know when I found it? You will.
I'll make itself known. You see, the book is connected to you and
me. Well, who are you? M He turns around as books are
flying about flat around. He stops and turns to you. I go buy
many different names, but you can call me hm. You got ponders a
minute. Oh, I haven't used this one a while. You can call
me harbinger, harbinger. Yes, so freed, I'm going to send you
back. You're going to be dreaming about lovely things tonight, and remember to
get the book when it makes itself known to you. Until once you get
the book, I will be seeing you in the future and in the foreseeable
future. So take care of yourself and take care of it. Okay,
like lovely He claps his hands. I will be watching and books start flying
about as pages of and you kind of check back into your dream that you're
in the doorway and you see the captain that you were walking in to talk
to, whatever captain may be, Davy whoever, and your dream continues on
from there, all right, So you go continue back into your lovely,
lovely dream and you have fabulous changes for the rest of the night, some
of the best dreams you've had in white sometime now going over to the person
who I guess you're fine housekeeper. Oh God, oh God, oh God.
Hi, I know that's in two days anyway, So Davy you move
on to you, and so you are. You are asleep, dreaming of
what Davey'd be dreaming about right now. Mm hmm. The Seven Sees probably
just sailing, Yeah, sailing fucking around doing god ye sail, singing some
shinty something, drunken sailor pirate ship, Oh God, singing drunken sailor cool
so as you're singing drunk and sale when you're with your imaginary dreamed up crew,
it's sail in the seven sail sailing whatever. How many seas are on
this realm, Future Devin, you'll find out, you'll know exactly how many
there are because I trust you, I believe in you. I'm not trying
to stress you off, Future DEVI. And you got this. You close
your eyes so like you're in the middle of but now you close your eyes
for a dramatic moment you open them and your ship is gone, and you're
just floating in what looks to be the void of space. You don't see
your crew, you don't see your ship. You just see nothing, and
you're just floating there with barbecue sauce and your titties. There was so yeah,
you're floating. You're just floating in space. What you're doing, how
you reacting? What say be saying's thinking? She kind of just like looks
around and and she goes, oh, right, anyone there, and she
like like kind of like frog swims to see if she getting Yeah, you
just walk like hello, and you just you just hear, child, there's
no need for any of that from a disembodied stops who is there? Who's
there? As you see in front of you, you see seven little purple
lights that come up from the depths of this void that start glowing and spinning,
And then for a split second, you see what looks to be a
person and as this as he's nine, as he's eight sorry, eight eight
points of purple light formed together, you see what looks to be a very
large, uh female figure that you recognize, big lady, big spa.
You recognize her as, Oh god, what was her name? Oh ship?
What the fuck? Oh god? Hold on, I did not misplace
her name. I have her name, I do. I do have her
name. She has, she has, she has one funk? Where was
it? Now? Hold up? Okay? Uh Nfania, the goddess of
creation, the god that you've worshiped since you were a child, you were
raised on She has presented herself to you. It's been a hot No,
this is the first time you've seen her in quite some time, because last
time you saw you were a child. So this has been no. So
she's like no slok screen. But she it's the first time you've seen her
since you were a child. No, a child? Gosh, how do
you what? What was her? What was the name? Yeah? Yeah?
If like ni Fani? Yes, okay, like she like she just
gasps, I love you, I love you. And Nafani looks like she's
forming out of the void itself or she has You don't really you don't see
her legs because the outfite she's wearing kind of bleeds into the lads into a
nebula's floating around the void. And her hair as long as hell. It
hangs on at different point. It's almost kind of like a web in a
sense, hangs on these nine different lights that you saw that formed when she
made her entrance. Sorry eight sorry eight eight different round spherical lights that her
hair is kind of hanging on as it and her hair kind of moves and
flows like if there was wind flown about. She's like, thank you,
child. She's like, I have summoned you here because I have a mission
for you, if you choose to accept it. Dear child, I know
it's been quite some time since I've communicated with you, but I've always been
watching, I've always felt you. And she smiles. She said, yes,
So I have a very important job mission for me that I need done,
and I've chosen you to see this through if you choose to accept it.
So she kind of raises up her hands and she kind of points her
hands out as the star's point form beside her, these little images of two
humanoid figures I see, like a silhouette of a male figure and a female
figure. I need you to release two beings for me, one known as
the Witch and one known as the Aventa. They are currently trapped on the
island due to wrongdoings and evil magic. And I need you to release them
for me, for the benefits of the world. Where on the island.
They're spread throughout, but they're going to be along your journey as you travel
to get your ship. They're all along the way. And she kind of
gets closer, and she shrinks down to your level, and she grabs a
hold of your hands, and she says, Davy, this is the prophecy
that you've been waiting for, the prophecy that you kept hearing as a child,
that something a prophecy will be known to a faithful follower of mine.
This is it. You are parts of the prophecy to bring in a new
age for Evatira me. Yes, yes, Fate has chosen you for the
prophecy to bring this world realm even to a new age of prosperity and the
start that you need. Release the inventor and the witch. Right, Okay?
Then and she just she nods, she nods her head. Mm hmm.
You could ask how I was like, she's she's kind of just like
baffled the doorman, And she's like, uh, you're wrapping her head around
everything I need wrong on this? Oh, so so how do I go
about that? Then she kind of lets out a say, so, oh
my god, I fucking oh. No, I didn't talk about the five
or A did I? No? I did not, No, I did
not. Future Devin, listen back to where you were talking about this prophecy
to fuck yourself up a little bit, because because it was part of the
prophecy, oh, to release two that were along the way to your ship.
Cool, got it? Because I can't remember I mentioned the five told
me about five horrible abominations, but as far as they were with their names
or anything, you didn't say much. Okay, Actually you just said five
unmen stunning, stunning, So five unmentionable haws horrors, hauses. God.
Okay. So she's like, so, what's all the only thing you have
to do is destroy five keys, the five things that are keeping them sealed
away. Okay, yes, yes, And what do these keys look like?
You will know when you see them. I the keys are going to
be located along your journey. You're gonna be you and your crew, your
group of patriots are gonna be drawn to them. Naturally, You're gonna come
across them on your journey. You're gonna know. You will know when you
see it, and all you have to do is destroy all five and release
the inventor and the witch. And that is the first step of fulfilling this
prophecy. Okay, m h got it right. She's because she's designing questions
child, right? So, uh, I get maybe maybe so I know
that you're always watching, But how how do I get a hold of you
if like I need help or anything like that, or guidance or you just
pop up in my dreams all the time? Glad you asked, dear child,
she hold our hand? Could you give me your hand, your arm
for a second to hold out my hand? Sorry? Mm hmm, thank
you love. So she takes you your right arm, and halfway up the
arm, she raises her hand on it and your hand, and as she
rubs her hand across your arm, you feel a sense of static, almost
like someone's like shocking you. But it's not painful. It's just a weird
feeling of stag electricity for some reason. Or when she rubs across your arm,
and when she lets go of your arm in her hand comes back to
her side, you look and you see a tattoo that's formed on your arm,
a tattoo of a tree. And she's like commune with that tattoo,
and I will answer the call for guidance, for questions, anything of that
nature. I'll be there just looking at the tattoo. So cool, and
she says, And as you go on your journey, after you do the
first step and you continue on, as the prophecy continues, your tattoo will
change along with it, unlocking other secrets, other gifts I've given you,
I'll be giving you. Thank you, she does, You're very welcome.
Now I'm gonna go a hands on your back to your dream. But remember
I am always watching and I am counting on you, dear Davy, And
she sinks into the void. As the void comes up cond of like a
like a title, like an ocean wave, and when it water hits your
face. You're on the edge of the ship, on the top, on
the end of the ship, and the water splashes you in your face as
your crew is yelling at you, what are you doing, Coptera? Do
you want to fall a dive yet? Yeah? And then your dream continues
along your travels and you're look at you and you're look at your right arm,
and your tattoo is still there. Cool neck, and that is h
Davy. So we've done Davy and uh Freed and last and of course we
did Kayden and last but not least Tama. Mm hmm. You're up next.
So Tama, as you are sleeping, you are in a place of
Okay, does Tama dream? I imagine all creatures dream? Well, I
mean, okay, is he having a dream right now? And if so,
what type of dream would you want him to have? That's a good
question. Okay, yes, he is dreaming because he's getting the amount of
required to have dreams. Okay, his round sleep, he could would he
be dreaming about either of the gods that he worships? Mm hmmm mm hmm.
You're like, oh, yeah, no, I didn't put that in
here. Gona dream about this, I'm like, damn it. Okay,
all right, So he's dreamed about the gods. Yeah, Like he's dreamt
of Winter for following the oath, and then sometimes he dreams of Soul because
it's new. So it's a battle. It's like a hug of war between
do revenge for good and do revenge for not good? For the balance of
things. Ah, okay, Well, you're having your normal dream and everything
goes to darkness as you are taken to a realm of in between. You
see stars, You see a large tree around you, below you, above
you, you see branches. You see what looks to me like galaxies and
stars and that you've never seen. Of course, you know that this world
is Avatra, but you've never seen it in this way. But you're in
between a bunch of the branches floating as you see come into view. Will
first bring in Soul, God, the primorial goddess of darkness and death.
She comes to She stands on your left and on your right. She's there
in front of you, by the way, so on the left, and
when your head to the left, in front of you, she appears.
And to your right, Winter, the primoridal deity of light and life,
appear before you, and they kind of look at you. Winters looking at
you with worry, while Soul's looking at you with kind of a neutral reaction
on her face. So I just want to point out, so, so
here kind of looks like a little bit thinner, yeah, and Winter looks
like snow white with less clothing. I mean not really the clothing is not
as skimmy, but like the look of the snow white look, and that's
why I wanted to go for it. Not necessarily she's not her altbat,
not that skimmy like. The middle is all sealed off, so she has
like a typical look of like snow white. But for contact, ladies and
Gentzy haven't listened to the lore of a materia. Please listen to that because
primorial deities will be explained more in detail. But to too long didn't listen
of it. Souls the Dark the primary goddess of darkness and death, and
she looks more on the like serious, not that she looks like she'd be
evil, but as you would hear in that episode, just because she's the
deity of darkness and the embodiment of darkness and death doesn't necessarily mean she's evil,
if that makes sense. And on to his right is Winter, which
is probably one of the guss of life and light, and she's also the
While Soul is known as the mother of monsters, Winter is known as the
mother of mortals, so she would look more human than Soul would. Soul
would look more demonic and more creepy looking, while Winter would look more like
a human. Now context, again, these characters are more were inspired by
fairy Tale characters. Obviously, Winters was the inspiration from snow White as well
as Soul was the inspiration from Maleficent. In that nature again, I explain
all that in more greater detail, as well as the other gods and the
pantheon and whatnot in the lower episode, which will be a few episodes back
and the Void Onnica playlists back on the table. So you see Winter and
Soul standing before you, and they look at you with different emotions. When
You're looking with the pace of worry, while Soul has like a very neutral
look on her face, and they have summoned you here from your dream to
discuss what happened with Scarlet out. Winter starts and she says, so you
found another one. You're kind yeah, out of the blue. This was
most unexpected, And Soul's like that, there is nothing that's unexpected. Everything
happens for a reason. You were destined to come across one of your kind.
And when she's like kind of looks to her sister Souls the oldest,
Winter's the youngest. So Winter looks over the Soul and kind of almost kind
of rolls her eyes. They don't really get along, obviously, being the
being the physical embodiment of opposite things, but they have to work together,
so it's very it's very complicated between the two. So so not so Winter
says, so are you going to so you're going to take up or offer
and learn more about learn more about your kind as well as what abilities you
can learn. Are you sure you want to take down that go down that
path? Oh? Yeah, I mean why not? Cousin involves killing others.
You know, I had to slay quite a few people when I was
with the Order of Vengeance, right, and so I was like, oh,
we are well are But when said to you, as you would know,
life can exist without death. It's part of the balance of things.
Remember, I can't exist without you, and you can't exist without me without
one without one or both of us, plant problems will arise and she looks
over and she's like, yes, but there's no need to kill senselessly,
Like she's like scar that, like that nine TLD Beast is offering how are
you gonna And they both look at you and they say at the same time,
how are you gonna keep balance? Well, that's certainly a tough question.
Yeah, he's signing, just like, oh, well, what have
I got myself into, Oh god, this is off the table. This
is gonna be fun to enter to play out on some tough choices. Oh
imagine, if you will, a Ben Tan when he's talking to what alien
is Alien ten, where you're talking to those two voices and he has to
communicate with them to do anything, get anything done? Yeah, Alien X.
Yeah, that's the vibe. That's the vibe I'm making here between these
two because he's tied to both of them. To give a little backstory of
Tama, he grew up in like a hunting tribe or clan, so he's
quite familiar with killing for survival mainly there's like woodland critters or just big game
quarry. So moving up to killing more rules for the sake of vengeance,
it wasn't that big of a leap, Yeah, but it was just like
should I Like the whole point of the order of vengeance is basically like,
these people have been wronged and your job is to avenge them. It's like,
oh sweet. And he was fine with this idea until you know they
were misappropriating funds and I was like, oh, you guys are not as
good as I thought you were. Maybe I shouldn't work with y'all, and
that's why you left. And then now we have this opportunity of you can
just kill anyone you want if you feel like it. Mm hmm. But
there these two guys are addressing to you, since you're tired to both of
them? How are you going to not how are you going to keep?
Like? Are you going? How are you gonna go about kill? You're
gonna kill as sense as in people are doing to kill people who deserve it
and devour their souls. So they're basically kind of just gauging how are you
going to gauge the situation, because then from here that's going to dictate which
God appears to you play the end of player. So depending on how you
gauge the situation, how he would gauge the situation when he starts doing that
will depend on which God will show will appear to him when he calls upon
them, or if you choose an answer that satisfies both of them, they'll
both appear to you, so you'll have access to both of them. But
it just depends on how you go about doing this. If you dive into
this venture of learning more about your kind as well as the sucking the souls
of mortals. So there's a way to get both of them when you communicate
with both of them, or one won't re appear. Depends what you choose
to do, and each one will have their different aspects and effects and stuff,
so that will affect his character in some way potentially. But anyway,
so they both look at you. How are you going to keep the balance,
because you've kept the balance for I mean, you haven't gone off and
killed or anybody for vengeance yet you talk about it, you think about me.
Actually, I haven't done anything of that nature yet. So you do
have access to both of them currently as you start your journey. But they
both look at Jim Legs. So how are you going to keep the balance
or are you going to pick one of us over the other. I'm sure
I could maybe only go after those who really deserve to die. No,
those are making the world a much worse place than already is. They both
look at each other. Both gods look at each other. It's allys like,
so you're saying, so you're saying kill people that deserve it, that
are better off dead for the world. Well, yeah, it seems like
the most atra they're both looking at each other and they're and souls like,
so kill the ones that deserve it, and Winter goes kill the ones that
deserve it, but also save in the inosence that they'd be afflicting on if
they stay alive. And they'll kind of pause, look at each other and
then look back at you, and Winter ago says, we will see how
this plays out. There's gonna be what they call it, Oh God,
not tests off the table. I'm not looking for tests. I'm looking for
the word trials. There's going to be five trials for you to prove to
us how you go, how are you going to go about doing this?
Five events are going to happen that will affect your connection to us, How
you reacting kindly with these five individuals will determine what happens next. And they
and they kind of and when they say this, they go back and forth
like soul, we'll say some of the words, while Winter finishes the sentence.
Is that a weird dynamic almost kind of like twins, but they're not.
And then what happens next? Uh So when they finished that, they
finished that, same said, there'll be five trials that will I'll determine what
happens next, and they kind of when you say, what happens next,
what happens after that? Oh no, no, no, oh no,
they said, they said that that was that was the what they were going
to say. There's five trials, uh, kind of determine what happens after
that, if depending on what you do, depends on who if we both
are still around, or if only one of us is good. And then
they look back at you after they say that, then I suppose I could
do a salute and a bowel. As for what the order would require you
to do, I would do my best to preserve the balance and spare the
innocent and slay the guilty, slavy protecting the ansence, slaving, slaying the
slaving, slaying the guilty, slaving. I did slaving. It's a slang
slaying the guilty. Both of them will accept that answer, and as you
know, Tama, they both accept that, but they both don't like it,
because soul wants death regardless if it's anoswer or not, while winter is
like preserved life if possible. So the fact that you say I'm gonna preserve
innocence but kill the guilty, soul will still get death, while Winter will
still get life, not necessarily from you killing the guilty, but from you
killing the guilty that will save the save everyone else from that guilty from that
guilty person party. So it works in both favors. They don't like the
answer, but they will take it because they both want it their way,
because that's ain't burger king, but they think it is with multiple choice options.
And it was like, write the essay and I'm like, I put
on the so I guessed correctly. Then at least I'm assuming I guess correctly
for what I'm trying to do. Okay, So as you bow, soul
vanishes into the darkness almong she came, but Winter Sto does not vanish as
quickly as her older sister did. Would. She looks to me, she
says, these trials are gonna be very They're gonna be things that you've never
handled, things you've never seen before. And she kind of just pauses.
She's kind of smiles. She said, I'm curious to see what happens from
him with you, and she smiles, and she vanishes in a bright light
that fills the room. And then you go back to your dream. Whoever
dream that may be and off the table. No, Tiff, they do
not know what you know what they do not These gods, the primary guys,
do not know anything about you know who's this's and you know what's its?
Because I because I want, I want to say, what was that
concerned? Now they see these trials, They just see these monsters. They
don't know exactly behind the scenes ship anyway anyway, because I want to make
sure that you're like cool. Everything's still motion anyway anyway. So after your
you go about to your dream, Tama. You all wake up at the
same time, and it's morning. The sun's still dark out. Well the
map well well the map is, but like it's funny suns out. The
Birth of Chirping, La la la. You see some random bitch in the
distance, you know, I mean you see winter but yeah, the Birther,
the Birth of Chirping. You're all awake and Scarlett is has everything pact
ready to go, and she's like she has food cooked. She has some
fish that she has saved from yesterday, as well as some rabbits and bode
and she's like, well, eats up. We got a long journey ahead
of us today. And she looks to you all. Uh thanks. Kadene
gets up out of his gets out of a sleeping pad, skin all just
walks over. Wow, grab some coffeees like to everybody's like, hey,
how's it going? But as naked? Right? Yeah? Oh natural?
Well as if nothing's wrong? So you see us what six foot man?
Mm hmmm, six foot man, but ass naked in front of you all.
Please put some clothes on. Why it's through in the morning. Let
me have this and I would like to still have my eyes intact Freed.
Freed wakes up, rolls over, sees. Oh my god, I'm terrible
names k Kayden sees. Kaden is like, oh it's optional. No,
no, no, no, I like him. You don't have to look.
I'll just walk over here, I guess. Sorry, my sorry that
my body is such a repellent to your eye sight. Ah ca, I
just avert my case. Yes, it'll make you feel any better. I'll
just sit down on my pad and just put this blanket off. I just
don't want to see your dangly bits, okay, mm hmm, not really
think something that's appealing to me mm hmmm hmm. And for the record,
Free doesn't take off his pants. Sorry, mm hmmmm, just very comfortable
about it all. So, so as everyone do eat their fill, get
back up and get ready to go on your amazing journey the endeavors below.
All right, So y'all finish, y'all eat your food and drink your drink
and get nice and kind of spend some of the morning just relaxing a little
bit and packing up yourself ever so slowly as you all get up and you
go about your way. Now this journey, oh god, what do I
have your advertise? Yes? I do. Cool. So as you continue
on the path, you all walk for a good couple hours. So when
we woke up with like nine, we jumped to about twelve noon. As
you guys are coming up walking up this walking down this straight path, winding
through some woods and some prairies and some fields. You've been like in a
field with very few trees for quite a while, kind of following in the
road in the trail. As you come across along this trail, you see
a bunch of nights that are further down the way, and some of these
nights are carrying what looks to be the dead. There's like a group of
them they're like leaving what looks they're leaving the opposite direction, walking towards you,
head in the opposite direct, head in the opposite way. But they
all look banged up. Some are missing pieces of their armor, some seeing
their helmets. There are others on stretchers that are listening what looks to be
limbs and chunks bitten out of them. It looks like they've they've gone through
hell and beyond, and they're pretty distraught, and they're just talking amongst themselves
and getting the fuck out of here or whatever they came from, getting the
fuck out of there and taking what they can and leaving. There's about fifteen
to twenty of them, and then and all the ones, i'm the ones
that are at the worst on the stretchers, missing limbs or whatnot. Is
about ten of thems, about half of them or so are in a critical
or not so good condition, while the others are kind of just lifting off
the injured and carrying them off. Pet toward jall heading the opposite direction behind
y'all. That you notice them before they notice you. What do y'all do?
Heading toward us? Heading toward us. They're heading towards you, but
they're like walking down the opposite direction you're going. So they're like heading towards
you. Ton't walk obviously they're gonna be walking past you, but they're like
heading from the direction you're coming. You're head into. They're coming from the
direction you're heading too. That makes sense. Yeah, yeah, So they're
carrying the dead. They're carrying the dead. There's some that look like they
could be dead, while they're also carrying around and helping the injured of them
and the ones that are still healthy anyway, and they're you just hear them
talking retin and raving about getting the fuck out of there, save what we
can. Everyone else has fallen. What are we going to tell the captain?
We'll be going to tell the queen all conversation of that nature. Do
I get the sense we should probably go approach them? Wow? Do I
get the Do I get the sense that they're talking about of a battle or
more of something they fought, something they fought and it's terrified them. Yes,
okay, something got it all right? Uh hm hmm. I'll I'll
let the group know. Uh, hey, do you mind? Have asked
them some questions? You guys don't have to come with me if you don't
want to But I'm just gonna ask them something. I'm not going to stop
you awesome, Sure, go ahead pretty fast, see you walk. So
you walk up to them, mm hmm, it's about five, it's about
it takes a few minutes to walk up to them. She's kind of hollering
ass like. So you walk up to them and they're like, they're all
kind of the ones in the front kind of stop and the others kind of
bumping into all right, what's the hold up? Why do we stop?
I speak to the one that seems to be in charge, or I just
I'm just gonna, uh, I just want to ask in some questions.
Is basically. So I just quickly introduced myself and be like, hey,
my name is Kayden. I'm a hunter, and it seems that you fought
some and do you mind if I ask you a couple of questions? What
you thought? They're all kind of looking at each other. Do you want
to ask us questions about what happened to us? I pull out my pendant
that's basically the the that the one that each hunter carries, and then they
would know what that is. And they're kind of looking like their skin kind
of goes pale, and they're all kind of staring at each other, and
the one in front that's kind of leading them, uh, says you best
turn around and get as far away from here as possible if I were you.
Why what's wrong? What did what came upon? You? Give me
the details? Description, characteristics? Unspeakable too. From the deep it came
from the river. Oh, now there's like down and they pointed down the
road down there is the town of songs mouth at them at the river,
at the Singing River. We barely escaped with our lives and we lost majority
of our crew a group due to a monster. Okay, good monster,
like good monster, good right, okay? But what kind of monster did
it come from the river? Was it amphibious? Didn't seem reptilian? Was
it unmentionable? Was it fleshy? Was it furry? They all kind of
just look at each other and they're almost like kind of baffled on to how
to answer. They're like they had ones like, uh, I can't even
explain it. It had control of the whole town, okay, had its
clause talents whatever they were inside every living thing there. The town itself was
almost like it was alive. So are we speaking metaphorically had its claws on
people or was it or we're talking like legitimately, like something was using their
appendages to actually come in contact with people's brains to manipulate them. Any details.
So the guys like there's something in that church that is controlling anything with
the pulse in that town. It distorts the people and they become part of
it. Got it, kill for it, act for it, and the
thing inside of the church. I can't even wrap my mind around it,
even put it into words. Did you see it? And if not,
it's okay? Yet before it says yes, his body kind of tenses up.
He starts kind of shaking as he falls back to the ground. His
body starts convulsive. Oh that's not good. I a roll back in the
back of his head. He starts coughing up what looks what like blood as
he's convulsing. Yeah, I go I immediately get down and I try to
pull him on his side so that when he's coughing up whatever it is,
it's coughing out and he's still he doesn't choke on it. Essentially, I
think, oh, go on, sorry, h no, I mean,
like I do think I'm or something. And I don't know if you want
to roll for that or if he's just too preoccupied. But you can roll
stealth if you like, Well, what's your passive prod? Passive? What
passive perception? Passive perception? I just still like I still like walk up
kind of like quietly and I go, so what you learn? Oh and
you see the night on the floor convulsing violently? Yeah? Can I get
some medical and like I try to do some immediate just trying to figure out,
like can I do a medicine check to see essentially what's going on?
I know he's convulsing. I know he's coming up blood. I have him
on his side that is, he's not joking. I really use the medic
right now or somebody that knows the medicine wrote me a mass and check if
you can figure out as he's panicking, like what's happening as just mom,
Yeah, as he's panicking, he turns around and goes OI healing, boy
you can heal? Yeah? Right, maybe what's wrong with him? Try
and help him out? All right? On my way? Damn that doesn't
work. Yeah, I know, I have know do what's going on with

lovely lovely night. Check out for either how many how many hip points of

Night convulsing terrors, something unimaginable town or the monster. They're all connected.
It's all weird and creepy blood gore terror. Night is convulsing, Like I'm
Matt like id roll back of his head, like like, how you want
me to convulse? Because I could convulse with like two seconds. Give me,
give me a fucking minute, I'll fucking convulse. I'll give you a
wig and outfit and RuPaul's drag race runway, go ahead and convulse. Oh
fuck yeah, lip SyncE for your life. Convulse for your life. She's
serving mentally ill. So this night's convulsing and uh that would you roll for
meds and check of five? Probably? Yeah? I have nobody what's going
on with him? Okay? All right? So you're like, I don't
know what's going on about him. I am going going on with him.
I'm just gonna hold him on his side. Make sure he's not coughing up
blood. Make sure that he's not choking to death on his own blood.
Huh. All his tongue. Make sure his tongue doesn't go into the back
of his throat. Oh yeah that, oh girls ship. He doesn't bite
his tongue either, does it. I'm holding up I'm holding open his mouth.
I'm holding open his mouth animalso like holding him in a position to where
he's not like like does nobody on yours. I'm looking at the rest of
the I'm looking at the rest of the guards. I'm like, does nobody
on the team know? It's like, is nobody madic? Come on your
guys dying that they stand there frozen? What eyes rolled back in the back
of their head. They're standing like statue. He's like stiff as a board,
eyes rolled back at the head. Do you look closer. You're kind
of shaking, not convulsive like he is, but their body is kind of
quivering and like like shaking almost like a vibration and talma. As you're trying
to lay hands and heal this night, you notice you're taking so you take
off his armor, his chest plate, and you lay hands on his like
his chest. And as your hands are on his chest, you feel something
moving inside of it. Oh, like something kind of comes up, moves
under your hand and then goes right almost like a bump, like something is
slithering in there. You feel and you feel that. And and Bradley as
Kayden has is Kaidan trying to make sure his tongue isn't by his tongue.
It's more like I'm holding the mouth open. How yeah, how with my
hands? Okay, your hand is in his mouth. I have one hand
on his top jaw and the other hand on the bottom jaw, and I
just holding it open. I'm just seeing it with my hands. I'm like
really struggling here. Okay. So as you have his mouth open using your
hands, open his mouth, you see something black kind of slithering in the
back of his throat. You see it kins slither up. How how can
I see it if I'm like on his side and I'm just holding the mouth
open. I'm like, I'm not. You're not. Oh okay, So
you're not even looking in the mouth. No, I'm just just holding it
open, it open, yeah, okay, okay. Cool. So you're
holding it open, so I would assume your thumbs are around their teeth holding
it open. Right. No, So it's just the finger. So it's
the fore fingers and the thumbs are just on the outside. Okay. Yeah.
So like, okay, so the four fingers on each hand, one
cupping the top jaw to stay open, and the other one is cupping the
bonjo open, almost like how you would force an It's like how you would
force a mouth open, is what is what I'm doing? Yes, But
you gotta grip around the teeth to be able to do that. You can't
describe it. Lets do that? Yeah, okay, your fingers are their
teeth. That's why I've been asking. You have your fingers in his mouth
around his teeth. Yes, yes, okay, okay, So yeah,
the four fingers around on his teeth, keeping his mouth open. He feels
something slimy kind of slap against your fingers from his mouth and does not feel
like a tongue. Oh no, oh shit, oh no, I let
go as immediately I'm like, oh ship. As you let go and you
kind of fall back, you see something black kind of kind of slither out
of his tongue and quarrels back and and his mouth closes. All you saw
of it was black, slimy. And there's a black residue on the ground
next to his next to where his face was lying. Oh my god,
can I do an immediate nature check? Sure? Hold on. My reasoning
is and I have this, uh, I have it? Okay. Because
of my hunter's bane, I have advantage on intelligence ability checks to recall information
about any Faye fiends or undead is it is considered a fay fiend or undead
No, okay, so just a regular old nature check. Yes, just
a good old huh wow. You're like, I have no idea what the
funk that was, but it was, It's natural. You're like, the
only thing you can compare it to is like, is that like some type
of lench or something not lunch leech? Yeah, that's the whither you can
think of, like a leech or a slug or something or something. You're
like, you're like, Nicholas Cage, what you got in there, shark?
What can I do a nature check on this thing? Sure? You
up there with us when it happened. No, you see nothing. You
you don't know what the fuck it is? Slim you know, sure,
everybody, I'm right there. Everybody can do an age check, yup,
go for it, can do an athletics, the chest compression through something.
Oh never mind. So you you see as because you're okay, So you
see the thing coming out of its thing coming out of its mouth as well
as you saw the thing the chest move up kind of like something was slithering
in his chest. You see that as well. And the only thing you
could compare it to is that it's like a leech some kind. But you've
never heard obviously, you never heard of a a leech, because it looks
like a leech, like a very weird looking We never heard of a leech
doing ship like this being's burrowed inside someone's body Like that great, You're just
like, what the fuck? Yeah? I uh, I see the nature?
What's going on with the knights, and I see what's going on with
this guy. I'm like, I newly get up and they start drawing weapons
and be like and I till everyone. I was like, I don't like
what's going on here? You better get ready? Uh? Toma, are
you still? Are you trying to do compressions? I was? But then
I was like, well, seeing the nature check was past. I'm still
doing the lay on hands things and I'm still waiting for results on that.
Okay. So as you're trying to delay on hands, you could feel whatever
is going on with the body. It's rejecting the magic. It's pushing back.
You can feel it like you never felt something reject obviously reject healing magic,
but this whatever is going on here, it's not. It's rejecting the
mattress and magic kind of bounces back. It doesn't absorb into the body,
It kind of flows off the body. If that makes sense. It's very
weird, makes no fucking sense at all. No one rejects the healing power
of God. All these things are it's saying, no, God, I
don't want it. And as it's rejecting the magic, your hands are still
on its chest. You feel something hit against the rib cage, almost like
it's trying to bust out of it. So it's test. So you feel
the pressure of something hitting it, and you feel and it's chest kind of
its chest rises from it's like, and you feel and you see it and
it hits your hand and you see and some blood flies up because it's cracked
the chest, the rib cage. As he's taking what's the last time?
When was the last thing everyone heard? You're basically describing the scene. Something's
busting out of the ribcage. Something. When it does physically bust out the
ribcage, you see this leech like thing come up out of the chest kind
of looked at y'all, and it goes back and slithers on up the chest
through the neck. It's opened its mouth and you can see it kind of
sliding like in and out and then goes up to the brain. As you
can feel something crushing on the ends like it sounded like a muffled crushing sounded
like the brain and the night slowly kind of very twisted, and coltortally stands
up, kind of pushes h rolls rolls away from Tauma and stands kind of
get this arm down trying it's like a calf trying to stand up for the
first time. It's like someone has a controller that they never played this game
before, but they're trying to move around, and it stands up as his
body tries to straighten out, and you just hear the bones just crackling as
blood is just like spewing out as it's as they're trying to move the body,
but the bones are popping out because they're obviously not knowing how to how
to fucking operate a human body, a moral body. The blood is like
spliers of blood. Can I make an attack role against the head? Sure?
Roll mea D twenty with me I attack roll a H Seriously, what
is with these rolls? Damn? So you try to hit it, but
because you feel like you see you're running towards it and your race are sort
of hit it. You're like, I got this and the and the creatures
the person the night is back cracks and lies straight back almost like folding like
a piece of paper like, and it completely misses as it stands right back
up, and it opens its mouth as all of them open their mouth at
the same time. Life will summer as these tendrils come out of its mouth
and all the others of all the orfices eyes, those ears mouth as they
explode out the body. And you see these black would almost look like in
the shape of like starfish, like you know how you see starfishing ocean have
the longated arms. They're almost kind of almost kind of technically, but I
mean it's the starfish with it's like elongated arms. I kind of move around
the they're not shape. So they slap onto the floor as the carcasses of
the knights there are there, and they all kind of scurry off in different
directions. What the fuck just happened? I have no idea. Davy,
you all saw those, right, yeah, Davy Tama, you all look
at the sense that you need to go and kill these things, Okay,
respective deities are like you hear a voice of just like kill, uh,
Davy, you hear the voice, you hear your God's voice. Kill them,
kill them, kill them, and Tama. You hear the two voices
of the two gods. It's like basically they're talking to you saying like,
these are not natural. Kill them. And they're both telling you this.
So that's weird. They're both telling you these things are not natural. Get
rid of them, right, Okay? So I they ran off, right,
they started running off in different directions, Tyler, How does Toma react
to that? Well, there's a little flabber gash that that hands did nothing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I suppose I throw a dagger at the
nearest one. Okay, roll me a oh, okay, work, okay,
work. So it's twenty one twenty one does hit. So you throw
a dagger at it, right, So you throw a dagger at it and
it sticks into one of its arms, nailing it into the ground, and
you hear it start like screaming agony, and it's a lot like scream just
trying to get the nut, trying to get away from you. What do
you do? You know, I didn't think I could get this far.
Fair, that's fair, that's fair. I didn't think we're gonna get this
far either. That's fair, that's fair. So to recap yes, all
of these nights, yes, all these and they're running, uh the whatever
it was. And then the starfish like pitch black tar like creatures burst out
of the bodies like alien style, and they're all scurrying in one they're all
screwing in different directions like daisies. And as you look upon them, after
that, you nailed one down in the ground, you look up and you
see the others. They're all heading towards the river now, which is ahead
of you. Okay, I'm gonna scarlet and like do something. So she's
just been back there doing nothing, you know, she's because she's with us.
She's in the back. She's going to what the fuck? And she
looks and he's like there's something and she's like, and what the fuck do
you want me to do? She's like, what do you want me to
do? I've never seen anything like this, one of them that. As
one of them runs away, I'm gonna cast shatter at it, shatter.
Okay, all right, me, you don't have to roll for shatter,
do you? Right? No? I guess don't you remember a constitution saving
a throw of twelve? Yeah? This guy roll a con say god it
nineteen Well, what passes. So when you fire it, its like one's
trying to run away and explodes in front of it behind you and take tam
Yeah, so you explode behind it. It takes one of it's legs off.
It kind of flies in the air and then right into the river.
You're not too far from the river, so kind of and then lands on
the river. As the others get to the river. You do have that
one that Tauma nailed to the ground that couldn't escape Garlas, just like Flabercuys.
She's just like what the fuck. She's like, uh, this,
these don't live on These are not whats going on? This is not normal.
She's like, I don't know what those are and she's pointing to that
things out what the fuck that is? It's still squirming, Yes, it's
still squirming. You hear like these lot these like little shrieks coming from it.
How how big would you say? It would be? Like as big
as my hand or is slightly bigger. Like if it were to attach to
your face, it would wrap around it attached to what your face? Oh,
the face hugger, size of the face hugger? Yeah, nice sized
face hugg Yeah, yeah, does anyone have small box or some sort of
sack or something. No, but I haven't. No, I'm sorry,

around my hand, King Roy and oh wait a minute, wait a minute,
hold on? Can I make a Can I make a box? Can
you make a box? Do you have an ability to make a box?
As an action? You can create one non magical item of your choice in
an unoccupied space within ten feet abew. The maximum value of the item is
sixty gold pieces and it lasts for two hours. How am I ruling these
rules? H alright, So you're trying to form you're trying to get it
into a box. The creator God, what are the rules on this?
Like a saving for that? There is no I can just make it?
Did You're trying to get trap of creature? I mean I could just make
a box, not around it. But I can make the box, and
then I would say it would be strength, okay, contested strength. Okay,

put it on Yeah, okay, all right, so cause that's it?
Uh strength Saint rolls? Am I doing it? Or whoever is taking care
of it whoever, whoever wants to put on the box, if you want

box you think you got it, You're like, I got it. And
then the box kind of just move that kind of flings it up your arms,
gohu, and the thing cuts off slot kind of like it moves its
leg right out of the dagger, cutting its leg off as it jumps up
into the air and attaches tries to attach itself to Kayden Cayden's head. Kayden,
roll me a dexterity strength strength saving throw hold on. I was gone
through a little bit. What happened? A thing got out of its box
that Davy tried to put it into by free free trying to put the starfish
abomination into a box, busted out and now it's lunging at you. Please

Yeah, so you're rolling a strength saving throw because the thing busted out
of the box and lunging at your face? Is it lunges? Can I
strike at it before it tries to like hit him in the face? Uh?
Sure if you like? Was the sixteen hit? No? So you
almost hid it and kind of grazes it a little bit, but slips right
past your weapon, your rapier as it latches onto Caden's face. What and
wraps? What? Wait? What? What did you just say? Because
I didn't understand anything. You just said. What was the last thing you
heard that Tiff was stabbing something with their rapier? That was it? They're
trying to think the starfish did not get caught in the box, right what?
Oh my god? Yeah, so the star fish, we're trying to
put the face hover in the box. It broke out of the box.
It lunged at you. You failed the deck staitor sink save and as it
was lunging at you. So as it was lunching at you, Davy tried
to swipe at it with her rapier and she failed to hit it. And
now it's on your face. You failed with a sixteen to hit. Yes,
yes they did. Okay, yay, I love rolls. I need

Okay, black out? But then you then you no one's trying to
get it off me, great, olive, It's kind of happened early fast.
I was like, do we have a moment to interject? Yeah,

doing it, you think anymore? You can all try most certainly who's helping
or who's trying to pull it off? I will okay me too. Do
we just roll a string saving throw over that? Or do we have the
athletics? One of you asked the role the strained saving or athletics, and
then the other helps will be advantage. So which one of y'all wants to
roll it the strength check or athletics? I'll do strength. So what you're
saving roles, you are your saving roles, your strength checks. You're all
grabbing on each arm and you're trying to pull it off of his face.
