Speaker 1: Wow of a bunch of woo girls out here.
Speaker 2: And woo who party girls.
Speaker 1: All right, everybody, it's us. We're back on a strange day.
It is currently a Tuesday, which we don't normally play on,
but we're trying to make up for having a game missed,
which also means if you're watching this on YouTube, it's
probably tomorrow. This probably came out way quicker than normal,
so hey, what's up. Make sure you catch us again
this coming weekend. We missed the last day of last month,
and we're here now for session forty nine. It's all
of us. Look at us. Look how cute everybody is.
We have a few things to announce. You keep looking
at them, keep looking how cute they are, each one
of them. I got some stuff to announce real quick.
Heckn uh some in some stuff I want to draw
attention to, even though I think these nerds wouldn't take
the time to say that they did it.
Speaker 2: Uh I.
Speaker 1: So three gentle Sins finished done. We're waiting on one
art piece and then we're gonna try to get it
up onto drive through. Expect that to go up kind
of near the end of the month is probably when
that's gonna be uh hecking what else. I'm gonna get
my announcement out of the way first. I got Normally,
I don't fucking announce my voice over stuff in these,
but I want to announce this one. I am playing
the Flash officially in a thing that is licensed by DC.
Go check my Twitter if you want to see it.
It's for toys.
Speaker 3: But on the.
Speaker 1: Flash logan, I'm away so long to say I've watched
the Flash officially in a thing, but I did.
Speaker 3: It's so cool, so talented.
Speaker 1: Justice, I'm gonna make him say a thing that's gonna
blow my thing out of the water. But for this
specific moment, I was the Flash in an official DC
property very briefly, and I'm very happy about its.
Speaker 4: Yeah, a toy company, like oh yeah, just like I
don't know, one of the biggest toy companies.
Speaker 1: Crazy ever, just really funny for me because I was
also DC abridged flash back before they like finished up
and stopped. So it's really cool for me to be
like I went from doing fucking fun silly like I'm
the Flash and parody things to I'm the Flash in
a in a basically a long commercial but still whoa elevated.
Speaker 3: Fan baby, it's so sad.
Speaker 1: Whoa uh. We're also again before I handed this off
to specifically Justice. I also the next Splash book we're
working on. It's called The Periprismatic Tempest. It is about
the pariprismatic gods Insomnis Domino, which are the elemental ones.
You can read more about him in Liar's Guide in
the Lesser Gods section. It's gonna be about the elemental planes.
Same rules for donating as before. That'll be going on
for the next three months, after which we will consider
how we want to go about maybe making a compendium
of all these Splash books, Slash expanding none the Slash
doing it like a kickstarter for something. I don't know.
We have other kickstarters to fulfill, but I know people
have been asking us to do that, so we might
do that. Zegaltaz is also really coming along. I got
all the spaceships and that done and stuff, and the
Best yeary part, which is the biggest part, is basically done.
We're mostly getting art for it, so that is also
I think it's not gonna be done like this month,
but it's on its way, and that's really exciting. With
that said, Justice, please talk about your super cool thing.
Speaker 5: Hi, guys, it's me Sege, it's your boy.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I finally got the ability to announce I voice Seed Senior,
half of the new character ins Endless Zone zero.
Speaker 6: Yeah it does.
Speaker 5: You're a hot man, and I'm very excited and been
saying really nice things. It's so nice. It's very cool.
Everyone thinks I'm Dad.
Speaker 7: Should have.
Speaker 8: Some people who are like, who's Seed Senior?
Speaker 4: It's the father of the foot fetish on a seg.
Speaker 1: When you mentioned that to me before, I didn't get it.
And then I saw a cut of all the shots
and I was like, oh my god, it is nothing
but feet, nothing but feet on this guy.
Speaker 7: I'm sorry about my daughter. She doesn't like to wear shoes.
Speaker 9: Autism be like that autism awareness, All right, At least
I made her were she's on a segue.
Speaker 7: She will not have dirty feet, not in this house.
Speaker 4: No no, no, we will not the vinyl.
Speaker 7: If you're going to sit inside the cockpit, we don't
have clean all right.
Speaker 1: Isn't that so almost enough to make me want to
play endless? I'm already dealing with I'm already dealing with
one gotcha game?
Speaker 2: Right now, you got more than one. Once I voice
in my gotcha, I will play that gotcha.
Speaker 1: I agree that that was stipulation. Now I have to
open the game again in a spiritual sense. That's why
I'm playing Zendless. I just I'm not officially the character,
but they put Archer in it, so I feel like
I'm in the game. Uh, logan, Oh, he's he's maxed,
he's maximum level, got all his traces. Uh, he's fucking
e sixth. And also, if I get his light cone
twice more, I will have fully super imposed his like cone,
which is also maxed out.
Speaker 4: Yephilar, you have it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I went from not caring about Starrail to really
caring about Starrail real quick. But yeah, another another personal thing.
Actually I've been People might notice I've been counting days
on Twitter. I am two weeks in to no Red
Bull and no sugar drinks of any kind, just water,
and it's been rough. But I'm a heck and I
am feeling pretty good about that. And that's been a
big thing for me. Anyone that knows me knows I
have a major problem. I was drinking like almost five
hundred calories in Red Bull a day. I was drinking
two of the big ones a day. But I have
been trying to get all that out of my system
and I'm doing pretty good until Aaron tricked me. So
there's asterisk gone. Today we went out for curry and
I just haphazardly ordered a can of coke and drank
while we were eating.
Speaker 6: So, oh, that's fine.
Speaker 1: I know they're still good days.
Speaker 7: You're fine.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna let myself have any like I could
have a tiny Red Bull days until like a month
has gone by. I know, I know, I just I was.
I just really wanted the streak to be like pure
and I don't think it's rue into anything, not at all,
but like Aaron can attest to it. When I at
the end of the meal, I looked at the can,
I was like, oh, fuck, damn it. I totally didn't
think about it.
Speaker 8: Just well, actually, you know, you can't get it at restaurants.
I was gonna say, like, get diet caffeine free, because
that's what I do with pepsi, caffeine free diet PEPSI.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm trying to. Just like I'm trying to, I'm
basically doing water and gamer SEPs that's that's all I'm
doing right now.
Speaker 8: I love me the fizzy I do.
Speaker 1: I miss it. I missed the carbonation.
Speaker 2: Do gamerps unfuck their throne presence again? Because last time
they tried to charge.
Speaker 10: Me one hundred and twenty fucking us a d like
all together for one dub and I was like, that's.
Speaker 2: That's not right.
Speaker 10: Yeah, because there's like sixty bucks and then they're like,
you need to pay sixty more and I was like, no.
Speaker 11: No, I don't.
Speaker 1: Oh the fund. To the people asking why the pair
of the favorite Soul is read in the Paraprismatic Checklist,
it's because we will not be doing favorite Soul for
this book, probably because all of the Paraprismatic gods have
favorite souls already in Lyra's Guide, so I'm not going
to be introducing a new god for this book, so
be weird to do a new favorite soul. So unless
people really fight me on it, no, it's been read
because it's not an option that said. Hecking cool things
all around. I think really fucking being Zendless is goddamn
wild justice.
Speaker 7: It is.
Speaker 1: It's so cool.
Speaker 7: I'm very cool.
Speaker 1: I'm very happy I finally get to announce my flash thing,
because even though it's not in like an actual animated show,
I'm still like that flash.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, people have been telling me they think it did
real good and that makes me feel real good good. Yeah,
now I get thank you for being so nice and
building me up. Now we get to do D and
D where you then go back to hating me, which
it will be good. Maroon likes it when you guys
hate me. Mmm, all right, does anybody else have anything
they want to talk about before we get started today?
It might be a shortest game people at home, doesn't.
Speaker 7: It's pretty good.
Speaker 1: It's just really stylized, and I love this thumb.
Speaker 10: It's such a departure from our average thumbnails in a
really fun way.
Speaker 2: I really like it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it did really good with the white shadow.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
Speaker 8: It's it's nothing too big, but uh. On Sunday i
recorded my demo reel with with Hayden, and I'm really
really looking forward to seeing where that goes and then
putting it in everyone's face obnoxiously.
Speaker 10: I would love it if you and we can't get
too deep into this or anything, but I would love
it if you send that Melanie's way, because I know
that they probably still want.
Speaker 2: I think you'd get along with mal super well, yeah.
Speaker 7: We could.
Speaker 1: We could push that toward our age once it's done.
Speaker 7: Melanie also, it is a big deal I agree to Yeah,
I agree period.
Speaker 8: I know I have a demo, real voice actor.
Speaker 7: You've always been one.
Speaker 2: You can show. If that doesn't qualify you, then nothing does.
Speaker 1: You're so I mean, this is going to be really
irresponsible for me to say, Anna, but that means that
you're farther along with your demo reel than I am.
And I just said that I'm playing the flash and
the thing. So it is that you have I've been
I've been going on vibes and vibes is away es.
Speaker 8: I've mostly been just like, can I show you what
I do, like right now.
Speaker 3: What I have right now.
Speaker 1: I'm just quick, very fast story before we before we
get to actual game with Melanie's great. I love Melanie.
When we were submitting to Melanie, because I didn't have
a new demo reel, I did send one that was
like fucking a decade old, but I maybe cut a
bunch of my parody stuff up and put it together
and like made like kind of a visual reel out
of it. And I did say that it was like
the dramatic parts of our parodies though, and I didn't
say it was in a bridge series. And I sent
it to them and I was like, if they don't
notice by the time they have, then who cares. Oh
I need just for them to see that I'm good.
And they were like, oh, you do so much anime
and I was like mm hmm, sure do yeah, but yeah, no,
fucking super big deal. You're getting that done.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm just really excited because like I've always been
scared of getting one and then me like, wow, I
sound like shit, so like it's Hayden is absolutely wonderful director.
Speaker 11: I had so much fun recording with them.
Speaker 4: Mm hmmm, like they are the best.
Speaker 8: They were just like we're done, and I'm just like, wait,
we're done, Like yeah, we're done.
Speaker 11: I'm like it hasn't even been an hour.
Speaker 12: And they're like you're good and I'm like, oh, oh addition?
Speaker 1: What all right?
Speaker 2: But wait?
Speaker 7: We finished the session faster.
Speaker 1: All right, heck, And I'm I'm excited to hear when
it comes out. Does anybody one last run through? Does
anybody else have anything else I want to talk about
before we get going or are we good to go?
Speaker 2: I think we're good.
Speaker 1: I think happen when I when I, when I switch us,
when I switch us to the screen that has the reactives.
Y'all are in charge of your own reactives today? Is
am I in for any surprises?
Speaker 4: I don't think.
Speaker 1: Is anybody gonna have like a giant fucking chibi anime
head behind everyone else's has me art.
Speaker 7: I can change it right now, it will swap.
Speaker 1: But don't do that.
Speaker 7: Do you want me to be a hot woman? I
can be a hot woman right.
Speaker 1: Now, yes, but not now. I'm gonna switch it. Then
I'm switching it. Click, Okay, here we go. I trust
all of you. I trust all of you. It's all good.
If anyone's wondering why I'm freaking out about this, it's
because the discord reactives changed how everything works, and it's
not what I want it to be anymore. It's not
useful anymore, yeap. It It undid all the useful things
and has added nothing that I think I like.
Speaker 4: So it takes a second to look through it.
Speaker 11: It actually it actually is. It just looks different. I
I've been on it for a little bit. It just
looks different.
Speaker 1: But it just doesn't. It doesn't. But before I don't
I don't anger too much on this. Before it was
very clearly laid out in such a way that you
could click a group and it's like, all right, this
is a group. Anything I changed in this one done
like it was, even if you can still do that,
which I've figured out. It was so easy to visually
understand before and it's not now. Yeah yeah, but that's
I probably need somebody to take me through it and
show me how to use it again, because I've been
kind of in GOI mode. But that said, we're gonna
get into game. We're gonna do game, and I'm gonna
real quick.
Speaker 7: I'm just gonna.
Speaker 1: Put us over on this one because we got some
new music. It's another thing. By the way, anyone who's
a backer for the Zagalta campaign, we're getting pretty close
to releasing the gg's soundtrack. I want to wait until
a few more things are used in game, but we're
getting pretty close to putting out like the soundtrack as
a soundtrack. It also for those that aren't weren't Zagalta backers,
we're also going to put it on iTunes and we
will be basically fine with people using it in their
games and on streams, as long as you give us, like,
as long as you give proper credit to that nineteen
and whatnot, give attribution, and we're cool with it. Somewhere
in some way that said, Hm, I'm gonna roll a
die and someone's gonna tell me what happened the last time.
Speaker 13: Huh No, come on, Yes, no, I don't know you.
Speaker 6: We met him with cag They met him with cag.
Speaker 4: Yes. And also Tennessee came for the water and was
like us, and we were like worried. They didn't like one,
and he gave us. He gave us. As been back,
we fought more of those terrifying monsters that fought us
alongside the stimulacrum. But this time we survived by the chin,
by this hairs on our.
Speaker 1: Chinny chin chin, by the chin of our hairy hair hairs.
Speaker 4: Yes, you say it better than I do.
Speaker 1: No, I don't.
Speaker 4: I digress. We survived, all things considered. In fact, we
did better than survived because Desmond also came back. So
we survived plus one. One person went from being dead
to being alive, and Lilia was a menace. That's pretty
across the board.
Speaker 11: Every game always.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's everything that happened.
Speaker 11: I'm trying to not leave you hanging. I wish it
was better at helping you.
Speaker 4: I appreciate it. I mean at that point, I think
we're continuing downwards, right am, I forgetting any major At
the end.
Speaker 1: Of last game, we exited as you guys were all reunited,
Desmond was in fact brought back. They were their body
was returned to you by the corpse, the animated corpse
of Tannistain who had been puppeted by Gotham to retrieve
and to presume Desmond's body so that magic could be
used to fix it. And then, in accordance with the
throne ARCon that you guys have had brief contact with
that wants you to go and free It's subordinate, they
used their magic from Afar to restore Desmond to life,
and Desmond is aware of the situation and certain stipulations
that seem to be going with that. So Desmond had
briefly mentioned that he knows what he has been brought
back to do, which is the same thing Lawrence has
been asked to do with that. You guys ended last
session watching Desmond come back you guys left the river,
you were in fact attacked by several dark energy elementals,
some of Ethicus's creations that he's been using idomancy to
bring into being. You guys headed further down with Desmond,
and you guys would have made camp at the end
of the last game. I'm going to bring up the calendar.
I'm going to put it forward by like a day,
and I believe that I'm gonna put you guys forward
like eight hours because you were resting. I'm going to
go into your stuff. I'm going to hit the button
what rests you. I'm gonna give everybody a long rest
as you guys go into the next day and to Saturday,
the eighth of December.
Speaker 4: Saturday, Oh my god, And it's not a Saturday. That's funny,
that's wild.
Speaker 1: It's the middle of winter.
Speaker 11: Do we have winter Fest? Like crimbis?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 1: There?
Speaker 2: What is there?
Speaker 1: Well, if you want to know about holidays that exist
in Solemnestamina, you know, you can always open up Lybra's
Guide to Retia, which has a whole section based on
with calendar days. I'm doing it right now.
Speaker 11: That's amazing.
Speaker 1: One second, because I don't remember all of them. Did
you know that there's a there's a variety of them.
There's a second. December thirtieth does have a holiday on
the Sorry it's heck in it's technically the thirty first,
but it has There is a holiday each year. It's
called New Light because it's when the aar flips around.
Speaker 4: Not old light.
Speaker 10: Light.
Speaker 1: We don't want old We don't want old light. We
got to get that out.
Speaker 12: Are there are there any kind of decorations or festivities
that happened.
Speaker 4: For New Light?
Speaker 1: Uh? You know there would be depending on where you are.
I mean yeah, though to be fair, be there would
be lights. I mean this year there's not going to be.
Speaker 11: I want to know what we're missing.
Speaker 1: New Light is a is a holiday that happens once
a year. That is a holiday where that is where
you celebrate transition and planning and spend time with those
you love. Battles are postponed, rivalry set aside, peace offerings
are made to one another. Historically, Insomnis Domina during this season,
even wars have been known within places like Sermon Way
to suspend the hostilities in reverence for the year to come,
except for ones that are really bad and where they
don't care, but let's not focus on them.
Speaker 3: If the exactly we.
Speaker 11: Would be like Gotham, My man, it's Christmas, it's.
Speaker 1: New light, this clean you have you know the fucking
Snoopy and the Red Baron song. Yes, about like the
fucking cessation of combat during what was it World War two?
So you have a version of that song. But it's
Ethicus having like Christmas dinner with everybody. But anyway, it
is December. I was about to say, and I released you,
and then we got into this whole thing. If you want,
if you guys want to go into the holidays, there's
a whole bunch of them. It's not exhausted, but you
can go into Lyra's Guide Torettia to look at the
holidays and such. We previously went on a bunch of them,
like the Night of Blind Queen's was featured very heavily investige. True,
that's when the sort of dam caused problems.
Speaker 4: Usually Fenders is busting it down during that season.
Speaker 1: That's no, that's not that one. That's the Emerald sky.
Speaker 4: That you're right, You're right.
Speaker 1: Blind Queens is when there's no move unds, when both
moons are eclipsed anyway, you guys find yourself making camp.
Desmond has returned. Desmond is still weary. I release game
to you, guys. You may do as you wish. You know,
there's at least a couple more days of travel ahead
of you before you get down to anywhere near darkland. Lilia,
could you, as we enter into game, could could you
please roll me a wisdom check?
Speaker 8: Yeah, wisdom check. It's just the abilities right, Yeah.
Speaker 2: The left side b.
Speaker 10: Good old fashioned, do you know better for for a
dirty nineteen which so dirty.
Speaker 1: As you have proceeded down, Lilia, there is a faint
nostalgia to the trip you're taking. You know that you
basically took this trip once before, ten years ago. You
can't clearly remember any of the places that you're going to. Uh,
but you have no don't die. There's a dying man
in the background of the caves. But there's a faint nostalgia.
You feel as if you've walked some of these tunnels before.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's like nostalgic. Oh no, Lilia.
Speaker 1: Just to remind everybody, Lilia knows that when Suon first
came to Gilligan's, Pitt and their father, who was still
a diver, at that time, came down here with them.
He was trying to find the temple that is in
Darkland back then, and then they gave up at a
certain point because things happened. Lilia was on this trip
once before a decade.
Speaker 8: Probably I've walked these tunnels before. What's that I've walked
these tunnels before.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, memory of this place.
Speaker 10: You're right, I vaguely know.
Speaker 8: Maybe when you say that it was bad, when you
say the feeling of nostalgia, has it been ten years
since she's been in this tunnel.
Speaker 1: In this gone this specific way you are. You're down
past the point, and people normally go down whenever they're diving,
because when people like usually go down, they usually go
down to kind of like scenic areas, to some of
like the underground rivers or down to the hollyards because
or like other more scenic places. Usually going down this
far people only do it whenever they're like monster hunting,
or they're like looking for specific things, or like a
company from town is looking for a new like vein
to mine or.
Speaker 2: What have you.
Speaker 1: So you don't usually come down this far for tourist
based purposes, which is most of your diving yeah, so
you these tunnels, though they feel nostalgic to you, you
wouldn't have you know, you wouldn't have been in these
specific ones since then.
Speaker 8: Okay, okay, we we shall proceed.
Speaker 1: Do you guys settle into rest for the night, with
Desmond having returned.
Speaker 12: Hogging demon the entire night, not letting them grow before
it is gonna.
Speaker 2: Die like a koala.
Speaker 10: Mm hmm.
Speaker 12: I'm not suffocating you bigger than you.
Speaker 8: I try to bust something, as you said earlier about
the dishwaster, but but it's finished out ahead.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 11: I'm not like, I'm not exclusing you or anything something
smaller than you. I just.
Speaker 2: Child muscles.
Speaker 11: I really missed you.
Speaker 6: I'm strong.
Speaker 11: I was carrying lilya before I missed.
Speaker 1: You so much.
Speaker 10: You carried Lily Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 11: That's right.
Speaker 2: Expect that.
Speaker 10: I didn't think you were capable of that.
Speaker 12: What you're trying to say, Desmond, I'm getting damn, No,
I did it. It was It was very mainly Scar
was carrying Pepper and I was carrying Lilli.
Speaker 11: It was great.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like that just logically I would have
went the other way around. But good job.
Speaker 11: I mean, oh, I see that's right. Yeah, I'm a
I'm a gentleman.
Speaker 4: Lay it like that that.
Speaker 2: Makes me think you would be a gentleman.
Speaker 11: But no, I'm just really happy you're all the good
damn it.
Speaker 12: You guys don't normally say nice things about me, so
I was just really happy about.
Speaker 4: It about you.
Speaker 11: Yeah, okay, you're saying nice things to me, then go.
Speaker 4: That way, doesn't.
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 11: Are you okay?
Speaker 2: Also?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 11: Yeah, Pepper, you're right. It is always nice when people
say nice things. I'm sorry that I'll cut you off
the task. Desmond how he was feeling. I'm so sorry
that wasn't very GENTLEMANLIAMI no.
Speaker 4: I need to apologize. I mean I did. I'm too
curious for the answer to even if my point is true.
Speaker 2: M answer to what question?
Speaker 11: How you're feeling? Do you feel okay?
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm I'm combat ready if that's what you're worried about.
Speaker 11: No, I'm worried about my friend.
Speaker 12: I want to know if you feel like Desmond, like
you kind of you kind of died and came back.
Speaker 11: I want to know if you're okay.
Speaker 10: It was an experience and it's weird, but you don't
got to worry about that. I'll be fine.
Speaker 6: What do you mean?
Speaker 11: It was weird? What happened?
Speaker 2: I'm dying is happening? Odd? I don't know. There's nothing
for a bit. Then there was stuff.
Speaker 3: What stuff?
Speaker 2: Wouldn't you like to know? Whether? Boy?
Speaker 11: Yeah, that's why I'm asking.
Speaker 2: Too bad because I ain't telling Damn was you got
the gist of it? Anyways? I know you had to
talk with some of them.
Speaker 11: Yeah, was there like did you like see like a
red headed angel?
Speaker 2: Yeah? They showed up at one point.
Speaker 11: Oh did they? Did they talk to you?
Speaker 2: I don't think so, that's the one you're talking about
that was a little strong up.
Speaker 12: I mean none of them talked to me, really. I
think they all just kind of pointed.
Speaker 10: They encourage information. I don't know if I would call
it speaking, but I understand, oh.
Speaker 11: Mama, really riddily and pointy.
Speaker 4: I think all that type of stuff is really in
pointy and implication heavy. And if you see this vision,
you must in part by this therefore.
Speaker 11: But yeah, like it really seemed like I had to
like go to the temple to like save you.
Speaker 2: Well, we have to go there. I mean that's part
of the.
Speaker 11: Bargain, right, I don't know, I just kind of guessed stuff.
Speaker 2: Oh oh good job.
Speaker 11: Oh okay, but.
Speaker 12: Like I we we didn't go there yet, and we
we got you back, So why do we have to
go to the temple if we already have you back.
Speaker 2: Well, they told me I gotta go fix that as
part of the deal.
Speaker 11: Oh okay, then yeah, we gotta do that.
Speaker 7: Don't mess with deals, bro, I mean we're gonna go
anywhere with.
Speaker 1: Tag in the corner with like a fire lit and
it's like fade being ominously like illuminated by it looks
over to you. You just see his face over the
flames of it. For Celestial has given you a part
of a bargain before you've done something for them, it's
best not to cross them.
Speaker 12: Oh no, yeah, no, absolutely, I'm just making sure I'm
doing the correct thing.
Speaker 11: I'm just so confused, but I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 8: I'm pretty sure we are also here because something in
the temples that he needs to get. So you can
also say the pits, So.
Speaker 7: By the way, we've got to go there also the vines.
Speaker 4: Ship fairy na.
Speaker 1: In regards what it is the Celestials want you to do,
My people used to have a phrase that they would
say in regards to how confusing celestials were. A phrase
you're meant to say to them if an angel is
ever to ask you what to do something for them?
Are people say mug doug, that ancient phrase that means
I understand.
Speaker 12: Oh okay, what the heck it's a sign of acknowledgment.
Speaker 2: I know that's aaron.
Speaker 14: Yeah, okay, so we have to say mug dug to
these fairy angel creature things.
Speaker 2: No, we're gonna shoot the ferry. Mug doug to the angels.
Speaker 11: Okay, all right, interesting, mm hmm.
Speaker 7: I'm not making any more deals with the Last Jewels,
all right.
Speaker 8: That's fair.
Speaker 2: I mean it's weird.
Speaker 8: You didn't even ask for half of the deals.
Speaker 11: It's true.
Speaker 9: Mine feels more like coercion, but like, we're not going
to go there right now.
Speaker 10: You're going to sign up for deals with anything I
think out of our plane. I mean it's more, uh,
they need something and they got you.
Speaker 8: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: They have something you want, so and your carrot and
a stick or whatever it is.
Speaker 1: Usually so you saw I uh, we saw the vision
that told you there's some redheaded celestial that's up my
temple back in my well, my not my temple, but
my town, and uh you have to kill it.
Speaker 10: No guardian spirit. I guess each temple has a some
one of the U.
Speaker 2: I guess it's like an idolos. I think I'm using
that right.
Speaker 1: Uh, there's an arkon there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, not much into.
Speaker 10: But they, uh, they oversee the protection and everything going
on there, the facilitation of it all. And I guess
that the one in the Last Latch temple has been
subjugated mm hm. So until we can free them, I
gonna on a leash for that, along with some other stuff.
Speaker 1: When I was still young, the brief period where Darkland
was I hadn't been overrun yet, we did have a legend. Well,
I guess it was a substantiated one. But the temple
we're headed to it was a definitive part of our town.
It wasn't as removed as the other ones are from
different areas, and we were very aware that there was
an agent of the divine that was within it. It
was an angel of the Blade. I believe they referred
to it as a sewer Darkhan. We considered it to
be a sort of warrior spirit. It stands to reason
that when our town was overrun, it would probably have
fought back if something was abusing the temple. But if
another Arkhan is telling us to destroy it or save it,
it's been there bound for it must be near two
hundred years at this point.
Speaker 4: Gosh. The only thing worse than that is getting stuck
in the wall. H m hm.
Speaker 1: I that would be terrible to be stuck in the wall.
Speaker 10: Luck unlike anybody, I mean, you die right away. Anyways,
you don't often hear about.
Speaker 1: It's not the kind of thing that you often hear about.
We're all about in jokes today.
Speaker 4: I think I thought you'd like that one.
Speaker 1: Trying to manifest another character in the campaign right now
is what we're doing.
Speaker 6: Here.
Speaker 12: They would help so much right now, Oh god.
Speaker 4: I mean might have behind to me. We need all
the hands we can get on.
Speaker 10: This, so we're gonna do anything to keep that lunch
temple functional. Ideally, then I feel like they'll be instrumental
in that. Either way, it works with my intentions perfectly,
because as far as I understand, the thing keeping it
stuck there is the ferry or one of the shoot
in the first place.
Speaker 4: You uh.
Speaker 1: So un has been present and you see them like
generally paying attention their they're gaze shifting to people as
they talk. They don't seem to chime in, but you
do get like a general lot of thinking going on
from from so Un during this whole thing. Very loud
silence coming from him, and.
Speaker 4: Jeez, you can smell the smoke coming up from him.
Someone's process or power. Two problems with one bullet.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it might be better to visualize this
as defeating, not killing.
Speaker 4: Right, it was a turn of phrase, but yes, defeating,
not murderfying or what have you.
Speaker 7: It's more like damage mitigation. At a certain point.
Speaker 1: We have to repel them from here.
Speaker 2: You should have some.
Speaker 1: Insight by this point, you all understand that I know
things that.
Speaker 2: Are to be.
Speaker 1: It is my understanding that I don't believe that this.
You see them stop and they stumble over their words
and they kind of go inward. I doubt the circumstance
where we can kill it will come up. So we
need to sever whatever control it has here and send
it back to where it came from.
Speaker 7: Sorry, well, do we have a plan.
Speaker 11: That's what I was gonna ask, Why gow do we
do that?
Speaker 1: We need to see the state that Darkland's in. If
it's using the colindrite that's there to facilitate itself. Then
it's probably got defenses set up. I was originally trying
to find this thing so that I could research it
and learn more about it, and then I didn't know
about Darklands specifically and its state of being. But my
plan was always to antagonize this thing and find out
if it's connected to another issue that I've been looking
into for my friends. If we do find it, we
just need to come to understand how it's connected itself
to this place. Once we do that, we have to
sever it. And if we do, hopefully that will also
open up all of your memories.
Speaker 4: That'll be good, and those memories won't change anything. As
I feel like the one person who doesn't have such memories,
I should chime in and mention that I whatever things,
and if Terry is covering up, it's not going to
change nothing. Y'all still made it to who you are, Okay,
well good.
Speaker 10: I want to own my tragedies and want them taking
things from me. I have an idea what happened anyways,
I just kind of get a headache if I think about.
Speaker 2: It too hard.
Speaker 1: When I tried to tell Lilia about specifically what happened
before they weren't able to hear it. So I think
that memories that I think you were able to talk
freely about the fact that your memories have been changed.
But I think that if you actually hear about the changes,
it's still strong enough to block them out.
Speaker 2: Right, now you can tell me about those changes at
least too.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
Speaker 8: No, it's not your fault.
Speaker 2: I'm people you like to help them.
Speaker 1: That's true. You see a brief, very intense reaction from
something to that and then a quick recession and to
be like, I guess, yeah.
Speaker 8: Don't worry, that's what iver care is for.
Speaker 3: No, it's true.
Speaker 4: No, I was just I know that while we were
before the terror, they're stronger memories.
Speaker 8: That nothing everything.
Speaker 4: I advocate, But that's I'm circling back to my previous point.
Speaker 11: Selfish, I just didn't want to get you off not
but you don't want to go home.
Speaker 4: I'm on track still. My point was that the memories,
if I'm remembering from what Soon and others have said
during our time down here, that the memories being held
back or hidden are bit more intense. So I just
figured we go over the you know, if whatever comes back,
we can all talk about it.
Speaker 2: It took you a bit, but it came to you.
Speaker 4: I always find a way.
Speaker 2: Are strong memories, but I think everyone'll be fine. Mm hmm.
I don't know exactly what I've lost, but I'm taking
it back.
Speaker 1: M hmm.
Speaker 4: I just figure out said. Since I taking a shine
into y'all or whatever.
Speaker 2: You're weird.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're weird.
Speaker 4: Come from the guy.
Speaker 3: I'm kind.
Speaker 1: I do need to warn you.
Speaker 8: Oh sorry, No, you go for you go for there,
you go for there?
Speaker 1: You okay, Okay, she's weird.
Speaker 3: I do.
Speaker 1: I do need to warn you all that when we
do finally confront Neftaria, for my own reasons my involvement,
I'm not going to not be involved, but I will.
I will have to minimize my interaction with them.
Speaker 4: Uh huh, No, soon I thought we had it because
we were gonna get held from her deer.
Speaker 1: No, you'll have my help, I absolutely absolutely will. I'm
not going to abandon.
Speaker 8: You, you promise.
Speaker 1: However, it's important that things play out the way that
they would have as if I wasn't here, So I
need to make sure that you all take the lead,
and I'm only supporting you once we get close to
it anyway.
Speaker 2: Wouldn't you always have been here?
Speaker 1: That's complicated.
Speaker 8: Okay, he's the ninety's main character status.
Speaker 1: Do you know you see them like look down at
the fire and you see them swallow their words and
then look at you, Desmond, very hauntingly. Do you understand
how degrees and time work?
Speaker 15: No?
Speaker 1: Okay, and he looks back down at the fire.
Speaker 2: I know some people have degrees at the college. Well,
that means.
Speaker 4: Time is time. Sorry, continue.
Speaker 1: Time is fragile, it always has been, and there are
many paths that it can take.
Speaker 2: You're from the future.
Speaker 1: No, not technically, Okay. I have friends that I want
to meet again someday.
Speaker 2: Okay, I hope that for you.
Speaker 1: I was affected a long time ago by the actions
of people who have yet to meet me, people who
will reach across time and affect my life as it was.
And I know that's confusing, but I've encountered a group
of people who transcended time and saved me from a
situation I was trapped in. I want to meet them
again someday. However, there are certain things that I was
made aware of because I acquired knowledge from them when
I met them. I know how certain things should be
surrounding them, and so.
Speaker 2: You need the time to be the same for them
to have helped you.
Speaker 1: Time is difficult, and it flows differently depending on who's
looking at it. But time is like a series of
many rivers. It's flowing water that can split off onto
different paths. But if you think of one timeline as
a single channel that comes off of a river, degrees
of time are small alterations that can be made that
don't divert and become an entirely new one, Streams of
water that flow off and then flow back into the
same timeline. If I want to meet the same versions
of my friends that I met, the same ones who
are going to one day meet me, then by the
time I bump into them, I need to ensure that
I have remained on the same line that they'reon, that
they're on the same river of time that I am.
If I cause too many changes in the world that
we live in, if I alter the conditions under which
they were forced to act, even if they're not directly
related to them, then I may end up meeting different
versions of them, and I owe it to them to
find them again and meet them. So I want to
investigate some things that have to do with them. Neftaria
affects them. They don't know it yet, but they do.
But I don't want to preemptively remove myself and meet
a different version of them. And I know that indirectly
they're motivated by some things that happen here. People that
they know were affected by these events that have happened
here in Gilligan's pitt And if things are changed too broadly,
then the versions of them I meet won't be the
versions that helped me. I need to stay on the
same path, which means when the time comes, I will
need to rely on all of you to do what
you feel is best, like what you would do if
I wasn't here, and I will support you on that,
hoping that I stay in the same river of time.
Does that all make sense?
Speaker 11: I'm really long.
Speaker 8: So if I'm understanding this from from a storybook perspective,
oh please, Yeah, Saton comes from another timeline and he
wants to meet his friends from a previous back in
time time. That's why he's here.
Speaker 1: So you know, so some you know how time explaining?
Speaker 8: Okay, So, so he's from a different time back in
time time, So he's in our time because that's where
his friends are at. But if we interfere too much
with this timeline, then the friends in this time won't
be his friends anymore. So he's trying to keep everything
in the street and arrow so he can see his
friends again the way they're supposed to be. So if
we're all supposed to die, we're all supposed to die.
Speaker 11: Oh no, that's no, that's not right.
Speaker 12: Because I kind of understood that, but I still had questions.
Speaker 1: My point is to answer Desmond asked in thetory of
those who are going to meet me, I don't know
if I was here the first time around. It stands
to reason that I wouldn't been. But if I can,
if I can make sure that I don't cause any
major changes until I meet them again, until after they've
met me, rather then in theory, I could always have
been there.
Speaker 2: Scary predicament to be in.
Speaker 1: That's why i'd keep to myself. I've lived a very
very long time, but I've had to make sure that
I don't cause history to deviate. I've been mostly trying
to collect information from my friends.
Speaker 10: I hope that you meet them soon because it feels
like you're can't choose to do anything.
Speaker 2: Changing too much.
Speaker 8: But theoretically, if something really major happens to the Pits,
that isn't already what's happening. If we were to save
the pits, are we making it harder for you?
Speaker 2: Okay, it's too late for that.
Speaker 3: Anyways, that's a really good question.
Speaker 1: Though I don't know exactly what the fate of the
Pits were. I the information that I got was that
this place was known as a place where some tragedy occurred.
My friends had only heard about it secondhand through other
people that they knew. I don't know the exact details.
I don't know who survives. I don't know who makes
it out, And it's possible that even if there are
survivors that were unaccounted for before, as long as this
place is seen as a tragic place, then it might
not change history. My hope is that even if people survive,
I apologize for how morbid this is going to sound.
My hope is that what has already happened with the
cult attack will make this place count as the tragedy
I heard it was. Because it's not as if this
place is going to not be talked about once news
gets out, not.
Speaker 2: The picture done.
Speaker 8: Yeah, theoretically, no one has to die for what happens
to the Pits to still be considered a tragedy. This
is still a pretty big area. People go here for
vacations and stuff. It'll all be gone. Yeah, and even
if it wasn't, no one's going to want to come back.
Speaker 2: Between the church and.
Speaker 10: The man HQ, we got a collective of maybe a
few hundred, if even survivors.
Speaker 2: It's not exactly.
Speaker 10: A positive tale, and rebuilding seems like a fool's err.
And especially with those vines, I imagine most people will
leave the Pits once we get out of here.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I feel most people wouldn't like the idea of
underground living. If you can just be trapped.
Speaker 2: Like this, that's fine.
Speaker 10: Actually wanted to bring that up, but with what you've
been saying, I'm not sure if you'd be able to help.
Speaker 2: M hm oh.
Speaker 10: I got to get this kid to his family, dad, brother, Yeah, I.
Speaker 1: And oh, right, by this point, you you've mentioned before
you had mentioned that it was Quintus Vowler built that
you're looking for, right.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I I was given some new information about that.
I mean, I can still find him, but I just
I apparently according to some sources, uh, he's he's not
my dad, he's uh, he's actually my brother.
Speaker 1: Oh lucy.
Speaker 2: And I come to realize that I wasn't there for
this part. So I guess I just learned that while
I was dead. Oh yeah, I don't know why they
bother do.
Speaker 1: Inclu because one of one of my friends that I
am trying to find is Quintus valor Bild.
Speaker 11: You're friends with your friends with my brother. That's kind
of cool.
Speaker 1: Well, no, he didn't meet me. He won't meet me
until we meet.
Speaker 2: That's how things work.
Speaker 1: Well, it's that it hasn't, It hasn't is going to
happen already, I understand.
Speaker 2: I think I don't.
Speaker 1: I became aware of him because his friends had shortly
before they met me. He was separated from the group
of people I'm talking about, and I I'm relatively certain that. Well,
I don't want to confuse you with more. I knew
that telling you about my life would be very confusing.
But I'm going to make a statement, and it's going
to be kind of wild, and I it's probably best
if we don't dig too much into it. But one
of the reasons why when I heard you were looking
for Quintus Vowlerbilt, I didn't get directly involved is because
by the time I'm going to be able to interact
with him, He's going to be in hell.
Speaker 6: What the fuck?
Speaker 11: What do you mean he's what do you mean he's
going to be in hell?
Speaker 6: Does he die?
Speaker 4: A piece of ship law to that.
Speaker 1: This is about the effect I mentioned. No, he didn't die,
The soul wasn't taken. He didn't make a contract with
any dove. Well, he technically did make a contract, but
as he did in a way.
Speaker 9: I am not the only one that's not surprised by
literally any of this he did.
Speaker 4: Friends, Li has been scribbling in her notebook the entire time, like.
Speaker 8: He did hell of his choice of his own being.
Speaker 1: To save the life of his friends, he allowed himself
to be held in hell.
Speaker 11: And cross across my friends.
Speaker 1: My friends don't manage to get him back themselves, then
as soon as I am able to act, as soon
as the period where they would have met me has passed,
m then I'm going to go get him myself.
Speaker 8: I was going to say, what, but I guess traversing
across time as friends.
Speaker 1: He sounds frankly, just x Mark right here.
Speaker 12: Is not always a bad thing, like like Lilia said,
is a noble sacrifice.
Speaker 8: Sacrifice for the sake of his friends, and his friends
now traverse time and dimension to save him.
Speaker 11: Yeah, that doesn't sound look an annoying God, there's.
Speaker 8: Not a lot. I'm the serial numbers.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's good that. I guess he's not a piece
of shit.
Speaker 1: He's a very good.
Speaker 11: He's a good person. Okay, like that.
Speaker 10: I guess the upshot is, I was gonna ask for
your help in getting this kid to him, but it's
inact that's complicated.
Speaker 1: I don't want to take Lawrence to Hell.
Speaker 10: Oh like near him, you know, you don't have to
go to the hell part. He's already here.
Speaker 1: If he's not the one that you're looking for now,
then I.
Speaker 2: Mean I was gonna take him to that away first,
Well I was.
Speaker 6: But if a family, yeah, I just like to meet him.
Speaker 11: I'd like to go wherever they are.
Speaker 2: You don't get to go to hell.
Speaker 8: And maybe, and maybe maybe they can have a a
very bombastic dramatic clash as when they look into each
other's eyes. Quintus valor Beilt looks at Laurie and says
he looks like me, but younger. You know, no, that's
just you know, think more about that later.
Speaker 2: That would be so great.
Speaker 8: Escape scribbling note, But yeah, it was just it was
a it was a really good story I spun for Laurie.
But you know, you can just change a couple of
things and still happen.
Speaker 2: He's going to punch you out.
Speaker 8: It's work.
Speaker 11: In Lily's story.
Speaker 12: I also got like big and strong, and but that
was when we fought, and it was it was so good.
Speaker 6: I was just carrying Lily. Are you just said how
strong I was?
Speaker 11: Pepper tried to tell me to do it, but it just.
Speaker 1: I think I've realized the more that I talk about myself,
the more it's not good for any of you.
Speaker 12: It's interesting, it's interesting, you know, like you around, but
I am so many notes.
Speaker 4: The idea of it means that like maybe there's a
magic that in a jecks.
Speaker 1: If it helps to make sense of why I'm in
my predicament, I come from a place that was removed
from time, as you understand it, m in some time,
my friends, the highest standard, they will be pulled into
that same place. They will resolve a problem that was
cost there, and they will save me from that place.
But because I was pulled into it from the from
this material plane a long time ago. Whenever they return
from that place where I was trapped, they will return
to the future where they came from. But whenever I return,
I will return to the point in this world where
I left. So I will return many thousands of years ago. Oh,
so I have had to be cautious if I wished
to meet them again about what I affect, which has
not been hard because I had four warnings about a
lot of things, a lot.
Speaker 11: Of specifically four warnings.
Speaker 1: I knew everything that they knew about this land's history.
I have had to deal with the thought that if
I could have, in theory, I could have stopped wars,
I could have saved people from great tragedies. In theory,
I bought have stopped the end of the Semonian Empire.
Speaker 7: Hindsight's twenty twenty.
Speaker 9: You can always look back, but looking forward is a
little bit harder. You didn't know those were going to happen.
We don't change things, We keep moving.
Speaker 2: Hain't that for you?
Speaker 1: I'm very close.
Speaker 2: It's unrelated.
Speaker 10: I uh, I treated you unkindly when we met, and
I should apologize for that, did you? Yes, I kind
of wanted to shoot you. If that didn't come across,
then I get sorry for telling you that I at
least mentally was treating you unkindly when I met you.
Speaker 1: That's okay, other people have tried. I would understand what
Telling you about my past would have been complicated, and
telling you about your situation where we met would have
resulted in you not being able to understand.
Speaker 10: You stressed a little more Coohoolian than most Elves here,
and UH had a bit of war left in me.
Speaker 1: Oh you are involved, right, You're a soldier from the
Industrial War. Yeah, which means even though they don't dress
quite like me anymore, you must have imagined that I
was one of the people you were fighting against.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Or about you, Well, it's different.
Speaker 1: But it is true that I come from Cahulas, But
I come from a Cahulas that no longer functionally exists.
Its culture and society have changed. Even for Elves, many
generations have passed. I I am not so much a
member of I too think years Yeah, after I escaped
from where I was, I left as a child with
some aid from h let's just call them a friend,
a benefactor. I was able to allow my body to
age to the point that you see it as now,
But I actually don't age. I'm in cable like no number.
The exact numbers kind of lost to me. I am
older than both the first and second ages.
Speaker 6: Huh.
Speaker 1: I know that I have been around for at least
five thousand years, but after so long, those things start
blurring together. That's why staying here for ten years didn't
really register to me. When you all had brought up
that I had been here for a decade, kind of
felt like the blink of an eye to me. This
also might help you understand why I came here a
decade ago. I had heard there was a tragedy that
was going to unfold in Gilligan's Pit. I tried to
get here long before it would happen, do my investigation,
and then leave so I wouldn't be involved with it.
But I guess I overstayed.
Speaker 4: I think there are people at this fire who would
object to that statement.
Speaker 10: I guess when months are minutes, it's easy to lose
track of time.
Speaker 8: Yeah, pretty convenient that you stayed as long as you did.
Speaker 16: Yeah, I'm happy you did Ripples in your time pond
or whatever it is.
Speaker 10: I appreciate your help getting Lord at least close Hell jacent.
I don't know, lock him in a trunk or something
once you get close.
Speaker 1: And I'm very uncomfortable about any discussion about taking this
child too or near.
Speaker 10: He don't take them to Hell, just you know, take
them somewhere nice follow So rather.
Speaker 1: One of the archdukes of Hell is going to be
after Quintus if they get out through any means they shouldn't.
So that's okay.
Speaker 2: We should probably just find your dad. You should probably
do that. Your brother will show up eventually.
Speaker 1: I think I should stop giving you information.
Speaker 4: I'm sure they do.
Speaker 11: I know I want more information. No, you don't, I do.
Speaker 2: I think it's that like you do until you have it,
and then you don't.
Speaker 1: Because if we keep talking, I'm going to tell you
about the fact that he's also involved with the Crystal Queen,
and that's a whole other problem.
Speaker 8: I don't know what that means.
Speaker 1: I don't don't think I know what that means.
Speaker 2: I think I've heard that name before. Yeah, No, I
know about them.
Speaker 1: Here from the strike lens you Pepper.
Speaker 4: Yes, fake takes place.
Speaker 2: They're dating.
Speaker 4: No more troublesome folks keep joining her cause there's.
Speaker 11: Your cause.
Speaker 4: That's complicated, cold, making everything frigid. Sorry, literally, don't laugh.
It's terrible job. Oh no, don't make me beat some
sense in you.
Speaker 1: Boys. Certainly you will certainly never have anything to do
with any of you. You can rest assured about that.
Speaker 12: Okay, there's just something my brother's dating.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 11: What what I.
Speaker 2: Assumption?
Speaker 11: Yeah?
Speaker 1: No, his best friend did some things and stole from her.
Speaker 11: His best friend is taking the Oh wait, no, you
stole from her?
Speaker 4: Okay, No, whoever it is, I've gotta talk to them
about plunging a deg deep.
Speaker 11: Into plunging a dad.
Speaker 6: You're what.
Speaker 4: I want her gone. She is a horrible politician from
my land. People are going missing. I don't know what's
going on, but there's killing.
Speaker 1: Wouldn't be simple, I know.
Speaker 2: That's why nothing about the strike lands is simple.
Speaker 4: I'm just trying to get us out of there before
whatever is on the horizon happens. I don't know, it's
just I can feel it changing. People are getting crueler.
People are not how they used to be. I mean,
the strike lands were always hard.
Speaker 2: You're a family's still stuck there.
Speaker 4: Right, yeah, or maybe they're not at this point.
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 4: Ox told me that they were moving forward with things,
but especially down here, I don't really get connection to him,
especially with what's going on.
Speaker 2: You can get any word to them.
Speaker 10: It might be time to press the advantage there because
I feel like you've done more than enough and they
tell a part of us to here.
Speaker 2: Uncle.
Speaker 10: You called them them them yes, pretty easily enough. Feels
weird that the place they're from can't do anything about it.
Speaker 4: I have to succeed first.
Speaker 2: It seems stupid.
Speaker 10: I feel like you've paid your share at this point,
pretty stuck in here with us.
Speaker 4: So stupid or not, they have their checklist.
Speaker 2: I feel like they didn't know what they were sending
you up for.
Speaker 4: I didn't know either. There's no preparing for this, and
they sent me so. Like the Gut said, if they knew,
they would have sent someone else, not ann me.
Speaker 1: Penetrating the thorns from the outside would be really difficult.
Regardless of whoever it is you're talking about. I'm sure
that their major issue is probably more along the lines
of the fact that if they are trying to help.
We need to give them an opening.
Speaker 4: We talked about it, me an ox. I don't know
once we deal with the thorns how long I will
have two make sure things ends are tied up.
Speaker 10: You're walking out of here if I can help it.
I left you in a bad spot once. I'm not
going to do that again.
Speaker 4: Sorry about that, A bad spot I'll put you in. Hey, now,
let's not.
Speaker 2: And PoID fingers later.
Speaker 10: I just feel like, even if you die in the
line of duty here, if they count that as failing,
it seems a bit bullshit.
Speaker 2: I'm have to fight your uncle.
Speaker 6: That would be.
Speaker 4: No whatever happens, I mean, they have to.
Speaker 10: You did your duty, and you know you're stuck here
either way when you're lose, you did what you were
told to do.
Speaker 4: You that much is true. Yeah, but they have a
way of measuring things up and seeing if the scales
are matched.
Speaker 2: That is why I don't think wizards you're fine, but
other wizards.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that statement means a lot to me, but would
make everyone else really mad.
Speaker 2: That's why I don't care if I'm add.
Speaker 4: Hmhm wee.
Speaker 2: You hear that?
Speaker 4: Go on, get get It's just like gotten into Pepper's rations.
Speaker 6: No, oh those three rappers.
Speaker 11: Oh my god, he's eating the mushrooms. No.
Speaker 4: At this point, I'm just glad there aren't any rugs nearby.
You should have seen what he did to one of
my sisters.
Speaker 11: Oh god, mm hmm.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna say that.
Speaker 6: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: No, don't worry about it.
Speaker 10: I was fighting the urge to make a bad joke. Oh,
but there's a child present, and that would be inappropriate.
Speaker 11: I want to know, no.
Speaker 8: Privacy.
Speaker 10: Oh no, I mean that's past the time now. If
I've made it, it would just be weird.
Speaker 11: Mm hmm.
Speaker 8: Mostly, Oh okay.
Speaker 2: Why it's you seemed disappointed?
Speaker 8: I mean I think I think it just makes things
even more awkward to say to say you were going
to say something when now you're not going to say
it because it's not the right time to say it anymore.
But now everybody obviously to say it, you should say
it anyway to say it.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's okay not to say things.
Speaker 8: I guess you're right now you're not.
Speaker 11: God damn.
Speaker 8: Well, my pen is having a heyday. It's been a
long time since I written in here.
Speaker 11: Yeah, you got a lot of weird info, Yeah, a
lot of a.
Speaker 4: Lot of sketches. Give them.
Speaker 1: I've given you a lot of cryptic information. So to
make up for it, maybe I could offer one piece
of positive information. It seems to me that if somebody
like Ethicists were to succeed in what they're trying to do,
which is to take control of the great power that
is in Agony's throat to use idomancy, it seems to
me that I would have at some point heard about it.
But my knowledge of events that are are to come,
they don't include anything about Ethicus succeeding. So whatever happens
here in the pits, Ethicus's legacy dies with it. Surely,
perhaps that means that you all succeed the job.
Speaker 2: Scarne.
Speaker 11: Yeah go.
Speaker 2: What because preemptively Yeah, I imagine.
Speaker 8: You're a Yeah. According according to whatever tragedy befalls here
has nothing to do with Epicus.
Speaker 1: Good job for going to have killed Ethicus.
Speaker 7: Oh so I still get to do my thing.
Speaker 1: I can also hopefully help with that.
Speaker 7: Oh hell yeah, funnel blow is mine though.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 4: I've got some words for the guy, but I'll leave
the shooting and.
Speaker 7: Words. No arrows.
Speaker 4: Well, they're more lacks spills, But I gotta say words
for my spills. Not got bone to pick with him
and show him.
Speaker 7: Oh me too, trusts me. I have a lot of them.
Speaker 4: No luck for the shop.
Speaker 7: One of those bones turned into a bluetooth speaker that
a god speaks through.
Speaker 4: You know, you'd think it would be a tooth.
Speaker 1: Jesus the screen ghost staticky, it's real.
Speaker 4: I mean, of the things that you're supposed to retrieve
all the people to either I don't know.
Speaker 10: I didn't ask earlier after I went over and uh me,
and I think it's disappeared. Uh is Leona doing any better?
Speaker 4: M we Well, I failed to stop.
Speaker 6: One of them.
Speaker 4: They took her. We failed all the way fullheartedly. I
tend to do.
Speaker 11: What are you keep saying stuff like that?
Speaker 4: Because it's matter of fact, if I had, if I
had managed my second banagement, she would have been removed
from the situation.
Speaker 12: Okay, but I feel like you really shouldn't think about
things like that.
Speaker 11: Think about all the things that you did. Well.
Speaker 2: Have you been to therapy, dude?
Speaker 12: I can say it to other people, I'm not saying
it to me. Also, I've watched her do good things
it sucks that.
Speaker 10: You're pretty good at self affirmation and stuff. They tried
to get me to do that after coming back.
Speaker 11: And oh, I don't know. I did work for me
very well. I just I like Peppa.
Speaker 6: I don't like you.
Speaker 4: I can appreciate you trying to celebrate my tiny victory.
I get one of whatever, relatively, Laurie. I have to
be realistic to some point do things to say.
Speaker 11: Doesn't matter.
Speaker 10: If you tuck her means he needs her for something,
so you can still we can still help her.
Speaker 2: Or somewhere.
Speaker 4: Whatever you need us to do. Eat your dirt, Eat
your dirt? What is that supposed to mean?
Speaker 2: Eat your food?
Speaker 4: You can't just I don't know.
Speaker 2: I can't make it alone.
Speaker 4: No, it's all you're gonna ship it right here.
Speaker 2: Uh what what?
Speaker 4: You're the one who said eat your dirt?
Speaker 10: What I suppose you're gonna throw a back o wet
oatmeal on his back back?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's no good.
Speaker 4: You get grows on me.
Speaker 2: Come on, I can make berries.
Speaker 8: Berries are nice.
Speaker 1: You can make berries. Yeah, sorry, I zoned out a
while ago, around the time when we were talking about
time being fucking stream. You can make.
Speaker 2: Food, Oh, sort of they're.
Speaker 1: Just if you can make food, then make food.
Speaker 2: Cats good berry Oh.
Speaker 4: Oh oh, this is that make berry magic you were
talking about when you were like very.
Speaker 10: Very good, it's very delicious.
Speaker 2: Berries.
Speaker 1: They're just berries.
Speaker 2: Tell you if they're a good and built magic berries,
you only need one.
Speaker 10: Granted there's ten of them, and there's less than ten
of us, so you can have more than one.
Speaker 11: What happens if you eat more than one?
Speaker 2: You get fat?
Speaker 4: Oh berries make you fat?
Speaker 2: Fat?
Speaker 10: No, no, it doesn't, it doesn't do anything. It's just
a berry. At that point, I don't.
Speaker 4: Want to think about that.
Speaker 2: They're all right, yeah, you'll go ahead, Everyone their berry.
Speaker 1: And then yeah, and then everybody ate their berries.
Speaker 8: How do they taste?
Speaker 11: The taste like.
Speaker 2: Dirt good berries?
Speaker 10: So they'd be berries that Jasmine would be familiar with.
And we're in Sermon Way. What's just remind me again,
so I don't fuck this up. We're in just and
Funkers numbersone. Sermon Ways in the south end and is
a colder climate.
Speaker 1: Southeast pretty cold, but also like pretty foresty, think like
and it's cold New Zealand.
Speaker 2: It'd probably be kind of like blackberries.
Speaker 10: That sounds right, Yeah, yeah, maybe these small little kind
of bulbous It almost look like an individual bunch of grapes,
each individual berry, little teeny tiny ones, and uh, they'd
be a mild sweet with kind of a weird deep
back in flavor to it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, very floral.
Speaker 6: Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: If you're able to make like a suit of these,
like a whole bunch and prepare them, would you be
able to distill these into like hunger rectifying good wine.
Speaker 10: All the bears lose their magic after a day, but
they don't have a ways.
Speaker 2: So if you.
Speaker 10: Could make good berry wine, I'm pretty sure that exists,
but you'd probably you wouldn't like fill you up. You
could probably finish it with some regular bears, or you
can be like a mead and then if you set
at the end with a regular one you like honey,
honey and good berries.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it'd be wuld be all right?
Speaker 8: I thought I wouldn't what I would kill for a
honeybeer for a honeyberry right now?
Speaker 2: In order, you'd need bees.
Speaker 1: Who's ever seen one of those?
Speaker 2: Frankly, I don't think they exist.
Speaker 1: Bees really.
Speaker 8: Exist.
Speaker 1: I've never seen one.
Speaker 8: They're like a little fuzzy buzzy thing and they kind
of look they kind of look like a potato like
potato shaped, and then they have little little wings, and
then they have little legs, and they're fuzzy. They have
little fuzzy butts. And you would think that, you know,
with the laws of aviation, that they would not be
able to fly, but they look like this.
Speaker 1: You just have to look as made up as his
time is a river thing.
Speaker 2: By big meat to conceal their true brewing methods.
Speaker 8: No, you just gotta you, you just got it.
Speaker 1: For about two hundred years, I've not once seen a.
Speaker 2: Bee like cave spiders or something.
Speaker 8: No, they don't come from cave spiders.
Speaker 6: They come from bees.
Speaker 8: That's why honey has to be imported, has to be
not know.
Speaker 1: It's great.
Speaker 10: First stop. When you get out of here, you gotta find.
You gotta find some bees pick their honey straight from
the source.
Speaker 1: What the fuck does that mean?
Speaker 8: They tend to fight.
Speaker 2: Bees can fight. They punch in your face.
Speaker 8: Now they sting you.
Speaker 2: Oh that sounds awful.
Speaker 8: Yeah, they work. They work like a little army, and
when you try to go for their honey, they attack
you because they have a queen that they defend with
their lives. Because they love her.
Speaker 2: That's good.
Speaker 8: She looks like she looks like this, She's like, huh.
Speaker 1: Honey.
Speaker 8: So what she does is she has all the babies,
which makes more soldiers. So she's like the mommy of everybody.
And the honey is what is used to feed the
babies and then it it is the longevity of the colony.
Speaker 1: So the purpose of a bee is to be born,
to go out and find the means to make honey
so that the queen can solely give birth to more
bees who eat the honey for the sole purpose of
growing up, to go and find more honey to make
smaller bees. Did they do anything apart from they create?
Speaker 8: They create an everlasting, long, numerous empire, and we eat
their honey.
Speaker 4: They they're they're pollinators that yeah, we need them for
flowers we don't like. So a lot of the times
we have to do our pollenase in ourselves in the
strack lands because lack of bees, because lack of water.
But it it's allegedly what they do.
Speaker 8: What they do, they're little fuzzy, they're little fuzzy butts,
go into the flower, they get all the flower biddies
and then they go to the next flower and they
spread those flower babies.
Speaker 4: They're like like like the humming birds.
Speaker 1: Everything on the surface sounds.
Speaker 10: Do they make bees wax by like crushing bees? Because
now they make wax?
Speaker 8: Well, bees wax is something different entirely, but it is
good for candles.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they use it for bows too, wax o strings
with it.
Speaker 6: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: I just figured it was a company that made it.
Speaker 8: Just like the bees are very, very integral to the
ecosystem on the surface Desmond. If we didn't have bees,
we wouldn't have, like, god knows how much of the
plants on the surface we need bees.
Speaker 11: Are you really passionate about bees? I didn't expect this.
Speaker 8: I'm a petal night.
Speaker 4: Yeah, my god, we're on pollinator duties. So we got
to use their tails to use to get the pollen.
The cross.
Speaker 1: Your powers grown using bees.
Speaker 8: I mean, flowers are because of bees. And I was
really obsessed with flowers when I learned what the hell
I was.
Speaker 2: Sorry.
Speaker 10: I just really got to rewind here because I feel
like we missed it. But pepper rubs their but flowers
tell you.
Speaker 11: Guys would touch your butt.
Speaker 10: I just out on the image really that it makes
me smile that's nice.
Speaker 2: That seems peaceful.
Speaker 1: Anythink I'm going to.
Speaker 2: I hope you rub your.
Speaker 1: Soon too.
Speaker 4: Your soupans duid. It's fun.
Speaker 8: I really wanted to know if other people saw the
flower print.
Speaker 11: Oh, the flower print.
Speaker 8: The flower prints, the flower princes.
Speaker 2: That's him, isn't it. He's points it soon?
Speaker 11: Is he be?
Speaker 4: M hm?
Speaker 8: No, okay, no, no, you keep.
Speaker 2: Going your prints whenever we're not around him.
Speaker 11: You are you talking about?
Speaker 6: How like you and banner eyelashes upset?
Speaker 2: She doesn't her eyelashes when you're not around. That's when
you are around.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought she that all the time.
Speaker 4: Then then she looks.
Speaker 2: I just thought you always had something in her eye.
Speaker 11: Dude, didn't you guys like go on a date like.
Speaker 8: Yeah, you did, and then it was ruined by the
freaking call.
Speaker 11: Yeah how you acting like you didn't know that you
like him?
Speaker 1: So like, dude, you likes you. No, I'm unfortunately I'm
not literally her prints. She she doesn't remember going on
that mission with me.
Speaker 4: I think she remembers the date and the government.
Speaker 10: Princes are what we make of them? Is that wise?
Just no, whatever, I'm going to shut up.
Speaker 11: No, I like that, and I could be a prince.
Speaker 2: You are a prince, aren't you.
Speaker 6: And our pay.
Speaker 11: By a prince.
Speaker 10: Your brother is like a knight for a country and
he's like on the government or something.
Speaker 11: So yeah, you make me look at night.
Speaker 8: Though you don't have any claims any throne because he
was he was created out of wedlock.
Speaker 1: There's no single there's no single.
Speaker 10: Okay, so you're not like a prince prince, but you're
like as princely as that country can be. So there
you go here, prince.
Speaker 12: If I go to the land away and everybody's cool,
then I guess I could be a noble.
Speaker 1: Technically was.
Speaker 4: Yeah huh, Well, walking around with non existent wind in
your locks, I figured as much locks.
Speaker 1: The place I talked about that I was stuck. That's
outside time. I was the prince of that place.
Speaker 8: See, you only said that you were a spoiled brat,
not that you were a prince.
Speaker 4: Pepper's looking.
Speaker 1: Technically I was the lord of it, prince, I guess,
but I was raised as the prince of that place.
Speaker 10: Well kind of the same thing anyways, right, mm hmm,
more prince duke. I count all those silly titles. Oh,
there's just all forms of the same thing of I'm
Richard in charge.
Speaker 12: No, well, god, I'd love to be rich and charge.
Speaker 1: It wasn't that great?
Speaker 11: What's so bad about it?
Speaker 1: Thousand?
Speaker 2: I feel like you're making them uncomfortable.
Speaker 6: I'm sorry.
Speaker 8: I didn't mean to be already explained.
Speaker 11: Listen.
Speaker 12: It's really confusing with the with the timey wymy timeline stuff.
Speaker 8: I'm sorry I didn't Okay, I'm gonna be looking at that.
Speaker 1: I think we should probably go to sleep.
Speaker 12: I didn't mean to upset you, and I'm I'm sorry
if I overbearing with a lot of questions.
Speaker 11: It's very easily confused.
Speaker 1: It's just my story is a long one. You don't
need to worry about hearing all of it.
Speaker 8: I saw a lot of pages.
Speaker 11: Like in old seriousness. It sounds like it'd be interesting.
Speaker 2: More.
Speaker 1: Yeah, tomorrow we should be able to get close to
dark one. We should rest and prepare for that.
Speaker 8: Yeah, mean weill LOLLI are writing a notebook, thankfully for me.
That thing that Laurie said went right over his head.
Speaker 4: Luckily nothing.
Speaker 11: Everyone is to ignore Laurie to my benefit.
Speaker 8: He didn't hear ship.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and if he did, he's being polite about it.
Speaker 8: Fucking so, and that's I remain undiscovered for another night.
Speaker 11: Sure, bitch, say.
Speaker 2: Creature like thirty one. We've been married this whole time.
I'm starting to think he suspects I like him.
Speaker 11: Absolutely joke. Me and Spence have well keeps being like
fucking carry I think you have a shot with him,
and I'm like, I don't know. Man.
Speaker 8: She's sitting with her notebook, just being like, God, it's
been so long since they've written in you, it feels
like forever.
Speaker 2: Hell yeah, all right, well good night.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 11: You know I've been clutching Desmond this whole time. I
have not like of him. I'm still continuing. Yep, there's
gonna be life from now on.
Speaker 2: Bedroom.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you might help with his especially with everything he's
been through.
Speaker 11: Golly fine, I'm not taking my eyes off of you
while I do it.
Speaker 4: You might not take his eyes off of him. But Mom,
Laurie's leaving earshot.
Speaker 11: I'm never leaving earshot. I'm not putting my bed roll
down right next to his bug unless do you do
you want me to leave your shot? Do you want
to discuss something privately with Desmond Pepper? Go over there?
Speaker 6: If you are, we are we going to be bedrolling
in groups.
Speaker 2: Also, why are we putting them by the fire because
mine's wet?
Speaker 11: It was gonna be like where where are we right now?
Speaker 2: You can't put the cave?
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 11: Why am I not doing my sick little hut?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 11: I got my sick little hut. You'll want to get
in my little clubhouse.
Speaker 4: Are you get a ritual cast?
Speaker 11: Yes, I am. It's the only thing I can fucking
ritual cast.
Speaker 1: As you prepared to cast your hut, and there is
a silence that falls over everybody.
Speaker 2: Is they prepare to sleep?
Speaker 1: Soon looks up with a worried look in their eyes.
You see them like glance around very quietly. Well, yeah,
mm hmmm, I have an important question.
Speaker 8: Yeah, do you want to talk about it some where else?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 1: Okay, where's bagel?
Speaker 8: Bagel? Bagel still up on the surface.
Speaker 1: We didn't bring bagel, do you miss?
Speaker 7: Did we not bring bagel?
Speaker 1: I don't think we bringed bagel.
Speaker 11: I can't remember if we brought bagel.
Speaker 1: You guys definitively bagel went off to do their own thing,
and you guys didn't fetch them.
Speaker 8: I went, well, when when when when Lilia went? When
Lilia and scarn went to go check on her family.
Wasn't Bagel there?
Speaker 1: I believe Bagel was with the fam and Begel just
never came with And you guys are gotten to fight
and Bagel wasn't there. But I wanted to draw attention
to the fact that my understanding is that Bagel did
not come on this journey.
Speaker 3: I can do my.
Speaker 11: If we didn't.
Speaker 8: If we didn't think to bring Bagel, it's because we
thought maybe it might be too dangerous.
Speaker 10: For there's no Bagel makes sense the plan. It's was like,
it'd be better to leave him where he can help
the survivors.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's like a He's like a comfort dog.
Speaker 10: All of the like kids and traumatized people of the
pits are just hugging.
Speaker 2: A big cat bar.
Speaker 4: Rated kaffy bar of blanket, the rhino kay baraka, you're
telling me?
Speaker 8: Are you telling me you miss Bagel?
Speaker 1: Saton?
Speaker 8: I liked Bagel, you say, liked like he's not up
there still. You can go see him when we're all
done with this.
Speaker 2: That was the tragedy.
Speaker 1: My knowledge of future events contains no legacy of Bagel.
Speaker 8: So are you telling me Bagel dies?
Speaker 2: I don't know, Probably not probably not.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I was trying to be funny.
Speaker 8: The kids really like Bagel. M Yeah, and I think
I think they the survivors in the church also like Bagel.
And I think I think I think Bagel is done enough.
Speaker 4: Hm.
Speaker 8: You get, you get, you get first picking just.
Speaker 11: Just like Pat Pat Saloon's shoulder.
Speaker 8: Like you get, you get first pickings. You can have
all the time with Bagel you want.
Speaker 1: When we get back, They genuinely smile and like, I'm
going to be excited to see Bagel again.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm sure you Sure you are, buddy, I'm sure
you are, buddy.
Speaker 1: You like Bagel, don't.
Speaker 8: I love Bagel. I gave Bagel his namesake.
Speaker 1: I liked it when he wrote around on Bagel.
Speaker 8: It was a very fun memory.
Speaker 2: That's why I like Bagel.
Speaker 8: Yeah, so we've got good memories attached to Bagel, and
then we can have many more memories with Bagel when
all this is all said and done.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so.
Speaker 8: You can stop pouting now.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm smiling about Bagel.
Speaker 8: You've been pouting this whole time. No, absolutely.
Speaker 2: The most personality.
Speaker 6: Goddamn, you've been pouty this whole time.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's just how I look.
Speaker 8: No, because you've smiled a total of three times since
we've come down for the pets. Most of the time
it's been pouting, and your smiles have been very brief.
I've been watching.
Speaker 1: Well, I've got a lot to worry about.
Speaker 8: Yeah you do.
Speaker 1: Or not?
Speaker 8: Actually, we'll be fine.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you don't have to worry about anything.
Speaker 4: We'll be fine.
Speaker 7: That's not possible for me.
Speaker 1: Always got something to worry.
Speaker 8: About then, hmm. Then, uh, what's a good way to
word this. I've got to have something in my notes.
I've got something I've written motivational quotes before. Don't worry
about it. It will all be all right. And when
you don't believe in yourself believe in me who believes
in you?
Speaker 1: That their eyes widened a bit.
Speaker 11: That's beautiful.
Speaker 4: M m.
Speaker 8: You believe in me, right, yeah? And I believe in you.
Oh m hm, So I can't believe in you.
Speaker 1: If you don't believe in me, then this relates to
missing Bagel.
Speaker 6: I could if you wanted to.
Speaker 8: I mean, if you don't believe in me, who believes
in you, then how are we gonna get to see
Bagel again?
Speaker 1: I'm going to see Bagel again?
Speaker 8: Then, believe in me, who believes in you, and stop
outing so much.
Speaker 1: It's important to focus on the small things sometimes mm hmm.
Otherwise you miss over right.
Speaker 2: Up front of you a little bit. He's like, man,
this guy just can't pick up signals.
Speaker 4: H m hmm. If you do go on vacation, you
should find some trouble, specifically trouble closer to where I am.
Speaker 1: Vacation. I've spent the entirety of the current age's history
avoiding trouble. I'm tired of vacation.
Speaker 4: So I was telling Desmond, not you. Oh, I'm sorry,
you should get a vacation to every wich toke vacations.
Speaker 6: See that.
Speaker 10: If you can find her, we need to get him
to Nobility Land. That'll be a fun place. And I mean,
once you're done here, your family is gonna be in.
Speaker 2: That's stupid. Schools gonna be wizards.
Speaker 12: I'm gonna go over here in peace so the Pepper
can talk to Desmond by herself.
Speaker 11: I feel like she wants to tell him.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, yeah, I'm just gonna get out of here.
Just buy talk about yourself.
Speaker 8: Let's go talk about how great Bagel is.
Speaker 1: I feel like, now you think all I'm about.
Speaker 2: Is Bagel away.
Speaker 1: Makes you happy so high like bagel into the distance,
comforting and has no expectations.
Speaker 7: Scarn is over on the other side, reading a book.
There's like glasses.
Speaker 1: Sitting down whichever whichever scroll he's going to be tomorrow.
He's just like investigating, like.
Speaker 8: He's just he's just laying like bugs bunny, just on
the side there, licks his finger, turns the page.
Speaker 11: Anything.
Speaker 4: One time, Pepper and Laurie definitely took her and stacking
things on Scarn's head to not his, to him not
noticing as he studied away.
Speaker 7: The transfer both ways. But I go into a transwater Lawrence.

Speaker 11: Making a painful Yeah, Oh it's meat, that's cool, hell Y.
Speaker 10: All right, Well, they're pretending to not listen. I don't
know why they did that, and they should probably come back.
Speaker 7: But I.
Speaker 10: Don't think I was giving vibes that we needed to
talk alone. Oh actually I do, come.
Speaker 4: With me, just prepping to say something like, oh but sure, yeah.
Speaker 6: What's.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take pepper off just a little bit of ways. Okay, so.
Speaker 8: Wait, they left the tenth this time.
Speaker 11: Yea, it's okay. Look I have to stay in here,
but they left, So it's good. That's's what we wanted,
that we wanted.
Speaker 6: You guys, just nosy.
Speaker 8: Heard a thing or two faces the opposite direction the
entire time.
Speaker 11: I don't think what's going on, damn it.
Speaker 7: And with his glasses at the bottom of his nose,
looks over his glasses.
Speaker 4: Like my point is, I.
Speaker 1: Think about bagels so seldom that I didn't even notice
he was gone until now.
Speaker 8: Ah, poor boy, you're not really helping the samurai with
autism accusations on his life.
Speaker 4: Like, for real, we have representation here in that nineteen.
Speaker 1: Thank you very the term that we quietly used in private.
He's a spectrum samurai.
Speaker 11: Yes, yes, of course, yes, that's better.
Speaker 2: He just doesn't get people on this level, that's all.
Speaker 11: Baby. AnyWho. Yeah, we're not listening at all.
Speaker 2: So once I get them, you know, decently enough away it's.
Speaker 4: Work said I needed to Tabasco takes bots.
Speaker 2: He does. Okay, that sounded like a lie when you
said it.
Speaker 1: I don't know what.
Speaker 4: I think. I just when I get a little nervous.
Speaker 2: Oh, I see, Sorry, I'm kind of a downer. So
I get that, and I'm going to keep being that
in Sorry. Uh, I need your help because I don't
think soon is going to be able to.
Speaker 6: Sure.
Speaker 4: I don't know why you're trusting me out of everybody,
but Sure.
Speaker 10: Got our family to look after and sort of scarn
and I mean you do too, But once they're at
your magic school or whatever, they'll be safe and you
might have a bit of free time.
Speaker 4: Him also sounds like I I appreciate that you seem
to see me in a much brighter lut than a
lot of folks, but I am basically a grunt to them.
You know that, right? This was like getting getting the milk.
Speaker 7: Oh.
Speaker 10: So, I feel like you're up for a promotion. I
don't know, like obviously it's not the army or nothing.
Speaker 4: But.
Speaker 10: Gesticulates to the area around them. I feel like you've
earned a couple of stripes. Uh, you know, Big Wizard
Club or No. I need to get LORI to his family,
and I don't really know how to do that. His
mom might be around or something.
Speaker 2: I don't know. He said something to that effect, but.
Speaker 10: I'm not going to go forward with the expectation that
they're going to be in any state to have, you know,
care for him.
Speaker 1: And h.
Speaker 2: I don't think that I'm going to be around.
Speaker 10: Once all this is done, and so since I won't
be able to, I need to put that on someone else.
And you seem like the person for the job, if
you'll help.
Speaker 4: You speak about it so definitively. It's it's not like
they gave you a sign that that's not possible. Right.
Speaker 10: The kid doesn't know, but that at least what I understand.
I'm closer to something like a guardian spirit than I
am a proper alive Desmond.
Speaker 2: I'm not anything cool or actually spiritual. It's still just me.
But I think once we get.
Speaker 10: Everyone outside those vines, I'm pretty sure once me at
the border of the town, that's going to be me.
Speaker 2: Give me a chance to fix this. I'm really sorry
about running off after Leona like that. That was impulsive.
I put you in the kidden danger and that's on me.
Speaker 4: I get it. You care a lot about her. I
know you took a shine into her. Yeah, it's only
natural to want to help you that, you know.
Speaker 10: I just want to get you all out of here.
Town's done so much else to do, right, I suppose not.
But sorry, I'm okay, I'm being a fucking downer.
Speaker 4: It's not your fault. It's how things ended up.
Speaker 10: Just don't tell the kid if you could, I don't
think he could take that right now. And hopefully if
his mom's down there, maybe this will.
Speaker 2: Be a non issue.
Speaker 4: It will always be an issue.
Speaker 2: Oh, Like you know, I don't have to put you
in a bad spot.
Speaker 4: No helping Laurie wouldn't be a bad spot by it
by any means.
Speaker 10: It's just.
Speaker 4: No silly, It's just stupid stuff.
Speaker 2: And I figured like it. He's kind of on a
I feel like he's on the edge of a cliff
or something.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I feel like i'd crush him. He's got to get
a win here. And he's too young for all of this, certainly.
Speaker 4: I don't know why such things have to happen to
those so young, those so kind, for that matter.
Speaker 2: I mean, he's a prodigy. He's gonna do just fine.
Once he's out of here.
Speaker 4: He's probably better fit for what I'm doing than I am.
Speaker 2: Nah, barts can't be wizards.
Speaker 4: I've always appreciated your faith in me, but you're smart.
That doesn't get you very far if you don't got
the juice for it. Here, I am being selfish, getting
my hope stuff that we would get to play again
after finding out you actually had fun and there or two.
Speaker 10: Maybe I don't really know exactly what my timeline looks like.
So at your patty cake in.
Speaker 2: Well, you can.
Speaker 4: Patty cake right, I'm not a.
Speaker 2: Overst in games.
Speaker 4: Well, I'm sure there's plenty that you can still learn,
and I have lots to teach, and maybe things won't
be the way that you think. Maybe there will be
a way. Call me hopeless for that.
Speaker 2: I won't be the pessimist here. I'll let you be
the optimist.
Speaker 4: Oh, are those of the rules that we're playing today?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 7: I think, And then.
Speaker 4: I'll hope for what's best. Not my usual angle, but
I can work with it.
Speaker 2: Are you not a million pessimist?
Speaker 6: Mm hmmm, mm hmmm.
Speaker 4: It's more like try and despite being damned but knowing
likely results, I do a lot to not get distracted,
As you might say, I grow weary of that. How
many distractions find their way?
Speaker 2: I uh, yeah, it starts walking.
Speaker 6: What mm hmm.
Speaker 4: That's got your tongue.
Speaker 10: And I'm just I don't know what words to use
because I don't words good and you're using a lot
of big ones. That's not true. Distraction was the biggest
word in that sentence. I just don't have anything useful
to say.
Speaker 4: You seem to be back pedaling or disarmed.
Speaker 2: Maybe I'm just appreciative of your help.
Speaker 4: Ah, you make it easy to help. Choices be damned.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. True.
Speaker 4: Excuse me, tobasco cheese. I don't know if that sneeze
came through.
Speaker 2: That was big.
Speaker 4: It's tiny dragon big sneezes.
Speaker 10: I should get some sleep, and the kid's gonna freak
out if I'm gone for more than a few minutes.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 10: Also, I can't see anybody anymore, but I feel like
they're all staring at us from inside that hut.
Speaker 6: Oh ah.
Speaker 4: Likely definitely Scarn's nothing Scar.
Speaker 2: He's just lying out in the dirt over there.
Speaker 6: There.
Speaker 4: I can see. I just know Scarn, And even if
some juicees happened, and he's gonna be reading his book.
Speaker 3: Okay, coming back, coming back, your we got we got.
Speaker 1: Anything like straw but luxurious, so it's nice to ride
around on. He just likes bagel.
Speaker 15: God, damn it, I understand him in ways that I
previously hadn't I saw when we get back, you me
making a bagel saddle.
Speaker 7: Cool? Cool, Yes, we're besties.
Speaker 11: Damn.
Speaker 7: Let's see how it is male friendships everybody.
Speaker 11: That is absolutely how it works.
Speaker 1: Only one thing, and it's disgusting. Cut to riding a
giant cappy bara.
Speaker 10: That's the best way I've ever bonded with anyone is
digging a giant hole at the beach and swimming, but
just digging a big hole.
Speaker 4: Yes, gosh, a man after my own heart.
Speaker 6: I also love digging.
Speaker 4: Sometimes you just want to go out into the wilderness
and come back with a big stick.
Speaker 1: I guess, well dig the idea everybody. With everybody turning
in for the night and us circling about two hours
and us having started our game very late, so being
very late for a bunch of us, this was definitely
the first mansion mansion game we've had in quite some time.
Long time, I think with everyone preparing to head off
on what could be maybe if you make good time
the last day of travel. I think that that's where
we're gonna stop for this week. Although I say that,
but we will be back on Saturday, so.
Speaker 2: Not really for this week.
Speaker 8: Oh man, you guys get two billion's graves in one week.
Speaker 11: Damn, it's so much brave.
Speaker 2: That's got to be worth five gifted sounds.
Speaker 1: That's worth five gifted sound. September Bagel would like five.
Speaker 7: Three gifted, fifteen gifted.
Speaker 1: I don't want to keep anybody at home that's maybe
further east than us up too long to night, worry not,
I refuse.
Speaker 7: I almost walked into the bodega and picked up a Celsius.
Speaker 1: Largely mean our viewers as well, A lot of them
are going to be pressing the normal times.
Speaker 7: Oh yea, that's true with that.
Speaker 1: Savy, I don't want to be too abrupt, but it
is also super late, and I actually would like to
maybe pop outside and take a little bit of a walk.
But before you know, fucking midnight rolls around, So uh
will come today's thumbnail not at all indicative of today's game.
I gotta say they were around. They're doing some spooky stuff.
Speaker 2: They were eating popcorn while being like, do you think
who's gonna get it?
Speaker 1: I can, I'm gonna.
Speaker 11: Lose.
Speaker 8: Is gonna need fucking landing lights because goddamn he does
not know where he's going.
Speaker 4: We're both struggling.
Speaker 1: So everybody at home, we will see you guys. Uh,
we'll see you guys on Saturday for more.
Speaker 6: Oh good bye, everybody, We all love you.
Speaker 1: Stay sad Stopper
