00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:03.399
<v Speaker 1>Well, well, well, look, who's back again for more inner

2
00:00:03.480 --> 00:00:07.839
<v Speaker 1>galactic chaos. Welcome to episode two of The Insentiment ser

3
00:00:08.279 --> 00:00:12.640
<v Speaker 1>The Awakening Beneath the Ruins. I'm your resident cosmic guide,

4
00:00:12.880 --> 00:00:15.880
<v Speaker 1>the one and only Sir Recapalot, here to get you

5
00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:19.199
<v Speaker 1>hyped for what's about to go down. And trust me, folks,

6
00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:23.000
<v Speaker 1>you're not ready for this one. Our heroes Rylex and

7
00:00:23.079 --> 00:00:26.079
<v Speaker 1>Salmont are heading deeper into the bad lands. You know

8
00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:29.679
<v Speaker 1>that place where shadows creep and sanity checks out?

9
00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:30.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

10
00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:34.799
<v Speaker 1>That one. But wait, it gets better. There is a

11
00:00:34.840 --> 00:00:38.920
<v Speaker 1>mysterious ruin filled with secrets older than the stars. And

12
00:00:39.079 --> 00:00:43.799
<v Speaker 1>let me tell you those secrets. They're not whispering, they're shouting.

13
00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:48.840
<v Speaker 1>Spoiler alert, it's probably not friendly. Will Rylex finally embrace

14
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:52.359
<v Speaker 1>his destiny? Will Salmont figure out that carrying the team

15
00:00:52.439 --> 00:00:56.359
<v Speaker 1>is not the same as carrying emotional baggage, and most importantly,

16
00:00:56.679 --> 00:01:01.520
<v Speaker 1>what ancient force is stirring beneath those ruins. Buckle up, friends,

17
00:01:01.560 --> 00:01:06.719
<v Speaker 1>because this episode has everything, high stakes, ancient mysteries, and

18
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:09.400
<v Speaker 1>just the right amount of what the heck did I

19
00:01:09.599 --> 00:01:24.799
<v Speaker 1>just witness? Ready, let's dive in this place.

20
00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:29.439
<v Speaker 3>It feels alive and yet so empty.

21
00:01:29.560 --> 00:01:32.840
<v Speaker 4>It's a good reminder, Lex, a reminder of what we're

22
00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:33.439
<v Speaker 4>fighting for.

23
00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:37.439
<v Speaker 3>Do you think we'll find what we're looking for? Or

24
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:39.079
<v Speaker 3>will it find us?

25
00:01:39.719 --> 00:01:43.560
<v Speaker 4>Don't be scared, Relex with my covenant band will handle

26
00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:44.680
<v Speaker 4>whatever comes our way.

27
00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:50.000
<v Speaker 5>Salmont, Look at that? Is that the White House? It's real,

28
00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:52.840
<v Speaker 5>It's more than real. It's a relic of what we're

29
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:53.359
<v Speaker 5>fighting for.

30
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:55.519
<v Speaker 3>I think the President's still home.

31
00:01:55.879 --> 00:01:58.280
<v Speaker 4>If they are, they always an explanation for this mass.

32
00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:01.159
<v Speaker 4>I mean, where are the tax dollars going? Rylex? What

33
00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:01.519
<v Speaker 4>is this?

34
00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:03.640
<v Speaker 6>Sorry?

35
00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:06.000
<v Speaker 4>I didn't mean to You're like a bull in a

36
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:07.599
<v Speaker 4>china shop. Be careful.

37
00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:09.120
<v Speaker 3>We the people?

38
00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:13.039
<v Speaker 4>Is this a constitution or what's left of it?

39
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:17.520
<v Speaker 3>They must have believed in something bigger than themselves.

40
00:02:17.199 --> 00:02:20.039
<v Speaker 4>Just like us. Come on, let's keep moving.

41
00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:23.400
<v Speaker 3>Do you think we'll ever know what really happened here?

42
00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:26.840
<v Speaker 4>Maybe, but it won't change where we're going.

43
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:32.159
<v Speaker 3>It's kind of sad though, all this forgotten.

44
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:35.120
<v Speaker 4>Not forgotten, just waiting for someone to remember.

45
00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:39.800
<v Speaker 7>With the White House fading into the distance, they continued

46
00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:45.120
<v Speaker 7>their journey. The beacon pulse steadily, it's rhythm, guiding them

47
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:48.280
<v Speaker 7>ever forward into the unknown.

48
00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:07.199
<v Speaker 6>This is a mistake, Ryles and Salmont should never have

49
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:11.840
<v Speaker 6>been chosen. They are weak and unworthy of this task.

50
00:03:12.919 --> 00:03:17.639
<v Speaker 8>Your grievances are noted, Quinterras, but the selection was not

51
00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:19.039
<v Speaker 8>made slightly.

52
00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:24.520
<v Speaker 6>Not made lightly. Look at me. I have dedicated my

53
00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:30.879
<v Speaker 6>life to Islama, mastering its secrets, perfecting myself despite my flaws,

54
00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:36.400
<v Speaker 6>and you choose them children with no grasp of what

55
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:40.199
<v Speaker 6>is at stake. I am the one destined to lead,

56
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:45.199
<v Speaker 6>the one destined to rise above. You kept me here

57
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:49.240
<v Speaker 6>in jew You chose to let me remain because you

58
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:51.000
<v Speaker 6>see what I am capable of.

59
00:03:56.879 --> 00:04:03.400
<v Speaker 8>Quinteras. You are indeed unique. Your determination is commendable. But

60
00:04:03.560 --> 00:04:07.680
<v Speaker 8>it is not will alone that guides the beacon's light.

61
00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:14.039
<v Speaker 8>It is purpose, unity, and the unseen threads of fate.

62
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:22.040
<v Speaker 6>Fate. Don't lecture me about fate. I am more than fate.

63
00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:26.920
<v Speaker 6>I am the next great beacon of Hilma. I will

64
00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:33.879
<v Speaker 6>rival King solomonte himself. Do you hear me? I will

65
00:04:33.879 --> 00:04:36.000
<v Speaker 6>surpass the Founder's legacy.

66
00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:41.199
<v Speaker 8>The founder, King salomonte knew that greatness is not achieved

67
00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:47.639
<v Speaker 8>through ambition alone. It is through sacrifice, humility, and understanding

68
00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:52.639
<v Speaker 8>what lies beyond one's own desires. You would do well

69
00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:54.360
<v Speaker 8>to remember.

70
00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:58.560
<v Speaker 6>That and yet it was his ambition that made him

71
00:04:58.639 --> 00:04:59.959
<v Speaker 6>a legend.

72
00:04:59.720 --> 00:05:04.040
<v Speaker 8>And it was his humidity that ensured his legacy endured.

73
00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:09.759
<v Speaker 8>Be cautious, Quintus. Greatness without wisdom is a flame that

74
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:12.279
<v Speaker 8>consumes everything it touches.

75
00:05:13.439 --> 00:05:18.720
<v Speaker 6>They will fail, and when they knew, you will see

76
00:05:19.079 --> 00:05:23.360
<v Speaker 6>the truth. I am Hiloma's future.

77
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:27.879
<v Speaker 8>The future is not for you to decide, Quintius. It

78
00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:31.360
<v Speaker 8>is for you to serve. Remember that.

79
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:33.959
<v Speaker 2>Alone.

80
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:40.480
<v Speaker 7>Once more, box pulsed softly, its vast intelligence processing the

81
00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:42.759
<v Speaker 7>threads of what.

82
00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:43.680
<v Speaker 2>Was to come.

83
00:05:57.360 --> 00:06:03.600
<v Speaker 9>The jeez, they are saying, to the tune of a song,

84
00:06:06.279 --> 00:06:09.959
<v Speaker 9>and the wind is gently ringing the bell, The rings

85
00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:12.839
<v Speaker 9>the morning, the welcome of the dawn.

86
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:35.000
<v Speaker 7>The Ohio stretched before them like a graveyard of memories.

87
00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:39.879
<v Speaker 7>Once teeming with life, it was now a wasteland of

88
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:48.800
<v Speaker 7>crumbling buildings, cracked highways, and nature reclaiming what humanity had abandoned.

89
00:06:50.279 --> 00:06:52.720
<v Speaker 3>It's hard to believe this used to be a city.

90
00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:56.120
<v Speaker 4>People lived here, worked here, laughed here.

91
00:06:57.000 --> 00:06:59.639
<v Speaker 3>Now it's just gone, like everything else.

92
00:07:01.040 --> 00:07:03.399
<v Speaker 4>Stay alert. This place isn't as empty as it looks.

93
00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:06.160
<v Speaker 5>You think the ghosts of Ohio we are gonna jump

94
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:06.920
<v Speaker 5>out and get us.

95
00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:11.720
<v Speaker 4>Not ghosts scavengers, wild packs, things we haven't even thought

96
00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:21.439
<v Speaker 4>of yet.

97
00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:25.439
<v Speaker 8>Soon someone will.

98
00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:30.240
<v Speaker 2>Welcome of the dog.

99
00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:35.639
<v Speaker 3>Do you think this is what it'll all look like someday?

100
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:40.079
<v Speaker 4>Everything? I mean, maybe if we fail.

101
00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:44.639
<v Speaker 3>We're trying to fix something we didn't even break. It

102
00:07:44.680 --> 00:07:45.600
<v Speaker 3>doesn't seem fair.

103
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:48.800
<v Speaker 4>It's not fair. But that doesn't mean we get to stop.

104
00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:51.720
<v Speaker 7>The weight of the mission pressing down on both of them.

105
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:56.360
<v Speaker 7>Sam once a gaze was steady, but the tension in

106
00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:58.720
<v Speaker 7>his jaw betrayed his own doubts.

107
00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:06.800
<v Speaker 6>The warm days.

108
00:08:09.639 --> 00:08:15.720
<v Speaker 9>They are not forever gone, That the does rings, and

109
00:08:15.839 --> 00:08:20.839
<v Speaker 9>that the summer rains. The ball before beloved the dogs comes, bling,

110
00:08:21.040 --> 00:08:34.679
<v Speaker 9>rings them on the down they lad is calling.

111
00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:41.879
<v Speaker 5>Do you ever feel like like we're being watched every second.

112
00:08:44.320 --> 00:08:47.919
<v Speaker 3>Some month? Do you ever wonder if we're chasing a

113
00:08:47.960 --> 00:08:50.840
<v Speaker 3>ghost something that isn't even real?

114
00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:53.799
<v Speaker 4>I wonder about a lot of things, but not that

115
00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:56.480
<v Speaker 4>we've seen too much for this to be a ghost.

116
00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:58.519
<v Speaker 4>It's real, Ryles, and so are we.

117
00:08:59.279 --> 00:09:04.000
<v Speaker 7>The roads stretched on their shadows, long and distorted under

118
00:09:04.039 --> 00:09:08.600
<v Speaker 7>the fading sun. With every step, the silence grew heavier,

119
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:13.519
<v Speaker 7>broken only by the occasional groan of a collapsing structure.

120
00:09:14.679 --> 00:09:18.799
<v Speaker 7>Or the distant cry of some unseen creature. As the

121
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:21.960
<v Speaker 7>night descended, they set up camp by a river. The

122
00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:26.919
<v Speaker 7>fire cast flickering shadows across their faces, and the stars

123
00:09:27.000 --> 00:09:33.600
<v Speaker 7>above burned brightly, silent witnesses to the unspoken tension between them.

124
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:38.840
<v Speaker 3>Do you ever miss it? The way things used to be?

125
00:09:39.759 --> 00:09:43.279
<v Speaker 4>Every day? But missing it won't bring it back. All

126
00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:45.080
<v Speaker 4>we can do is keep moving forward.

127
00:09:47.279 --> 00:09:50.799
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes I feel like I'm not strong enough for this.

128
00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:55.039
<v Speaker 4>You are, You're stronger than you think, Rylex, I see

129
00:09:55.080 --> 00:09:55.639
<v Speaker 4>it every day.

130
00:09:56.480 --> 00:10:00.879
<v Speaker 7>The closeness between them grew heavy, their breath mingling in

131
00:10:00.919 --> 00:10:05.600
<v Speaker 7>the cool night air. But before either could speak, a

132
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:07.960
<v Speaker 7>growl shattered the moment.

133
00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:13.000
<v Speaker 4>What was that stay close to me?

134
00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:17.480
<v Speaker 7>From the shadows emerged a wolf dog, high bred creature,

135
00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:25.399
<v Speaker 7>its glowing eyes locked onto them with predatory intent. It

136
00:10:25.559 --> 00:10:31.480
<v Speaker 7>moved with terrifying grace, its low growl vibrating the beast lunges,

137
00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:35.559
<v Speaker 7>a feral snarl erupting as it pins Rylecs to the ground.

138
00:10:36.720 --> 00:10:40.799
<v Speaker 7>Calls tore into the earth around Drylys. As he struggled,

139
00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:45.320
<v Speaker 7>His cries of fear mingled with the creature's snarls. Some

140
00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:47.360
<v Speaker 7>to wasted time.

141
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:51.200
<v Speaker 4>Hold on, I've got you.

142
00:10:51.600 --> 00:10:56.000
<v Speaker 7>The covenant Man activates a humbuilding to a deafening crescendo,

143
00:10:56.120 --> 00:11:01.440
<v Speaker 7>before releasing a blinding surge of energy. As silence fell,

144
00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:07.240
<v Speaker 7>somewhat rushed to Relex's aside.

145
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:07.600
<v Speaker 4>Are you okay? Did it hurt you?

146
00:11:08.559 --> 00:11:11.919
<v Speaker 3>I'm fine thanks to you. I don't know what I'd

147
00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:13.000
<v Speaker 3>do without you.

148
00:11:14.559 --> 00:11:16.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, you'll never have to find out.

149
00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:20.480
<v Speaker 7>For a moment, they sat frozen in the dim light

150
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:25.440
<v Speaker 7>of the fire. Their eyes were inches apart, and in

151
00:11:25.480 --> 00:11:29.399
<v Speaker 7>the silence, their eyes spoke with their words could not.

152
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:36.559
<v Speaker 7>Relex reached up his hand, brushing against Salmon's cheek. The

153
00:11:36.639 --> 00:11:43.519
<v Speaker 7>distance between them disappeared as they kissed, tentative at first,

154
00:11:44.440 --> 00:11:48.919
<v Speaker 7>but growing deeper with each pressing second. It was a

155
00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:57.120
<v Speaker 7>kiss that held everything fear, oh love, and the promise

156
00:11:57.200 --> 00:12:02.919
<v Speaker 7>of the future they would fight to protended under the

157
00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:08.240
<v Speaker 7>stars amidst the chaos of their world, Rilex and Salmon

158
00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:13.559
<v Speaker 7>found a moment of peace, and in that moment they

159
00:12:13.639 --> 00:12:17.759
<v Speaker 7>knew they would face whatever came next together.

160
00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:25.759
<v Speaker 10>It's gone saved, it's gone making.

161
00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:56.879
<v Speaker 7>Their journey led them southward through the rolling hills of

162
00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:02.840
<v Speaker 7>Kentucky and verdant valleys of Tennessee. Each step a bridge

163
00:13:02.879 --> 00:13:07.159
<v Speaker 7>between the past and the present, a path littered with

164
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:12.519
<v Speaker 7>silent tributes to a world that once thrived. They moved

165
00:13:12.600 --> 00:13:18.000
<v Speaker 7>through ancient forests and along winding rivers, the glow of

166
00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:23.919
<v Speaker 7>their beacon slicing through the echoing darkness, while the stars

167
00:13:23.960 --> 00:13:27.240
<v Speaker 7>above offered faint, eternal guidance.

168
00:13:27.919 --> 00:13:31.000
<v Speaker 5>You think this is what Huck and Jim saw, a

169
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:33.679
<v Speaker 5>sky like this with nothing but the river and the

170
00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:38.279
<v Speaker 5>trees around them. Huck Finn, I can't believe you're bringing

171
00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:41.360
<v Speaker 5>that up now. What we had to read it in school.

172
00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:46.039
<v Speaker 5>It's a classic. You didn't like it, It was all right,

173
00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:48.159
<v Speaker 5>but you know it's funny how you always liked the

174
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:49.919
<v Speaker 5>stories where people run away from home.

175
00:13:49.960 --> 00:13:52.279
<v Speaker 3>I guess I thought it sounded freeing.

176
00:13:53.399 --> 00:13:59.120
<v Speaker 5>Now look at us, not running away, just running maybe,

177
00:13:59.120 --> 00:14:00.799
<v Speaker 5>but surrunning together.

178
00:14:02.799 --> 00:14:08.559
<v Speaker 3>This place is massive. It's like stepping into another world.

179
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:10.080
<v Speaker 4>It kind of is.

180
00:14:10.600 --> 00:14:13.279
<v Speaker 5>This place has been here for millions of years, long

181
00:14:13.320 --> 00:14:18.600
<v Speaker 5>before us. Makes everything we're doing feel small.

182
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:22.879
<v Speaker 4>Not small, just part of something bigger. You think old

183
00:14:22.960 --> 00:14:25.240
<v Speaker 4>Huckleberry ever ended up in a place like this.

184
00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:29.679
<v Speaker 5>Not unless someone added a cave chapter. I don't remember.

185
00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:35.639
<v Speaker 5>But he was always searching, wasn't he for freedom for

186
00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:36.519
<v Speaker 5>something better.

187
00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:39.840
<v Speaker 4>Maybe that's all any of us are doing, just searching.

188
00:14:40.320 --> 00:14:43.159
<v Speaker 3>Do you think we'll find it that freedom?

189
00:14:43.440 --> 00:14:46.279
<v Speaker 4>Think we'll find something. Might not be what we expect,

190
00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:47.519
<v Speaker 4>but we'll find it.

191
00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:52.039
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes I wonder if I'm strong enough for this.

192
00:14:52.279 --> 00:14:54.840
<v Speaker 4>You are. You don't even see it, but you're stronger

193
00:14:54.879 --> 00:14:56.000
<v Speaker 4>than anyone I've ever met.

194
00:14:56.159 --> 00:15:00.919
<v Speaker 3>You really think so? I know. So what's that?

195
00:15:01.320 --> 00:15:06.679
<v Speaker 4>Looks like an amusement park? Dolly would guess this is

196
00:15:06.679 --> 00:15:08.039
<v Speaker 4>where we're stopping for the night.

197
00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:12.960
<v Speaker 7>The park wasn't just a ruin. It was a memory,

198
00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:17.559
<v Speaker 7>a fragment of a world they were fighting to protect.

199
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:22.919
<v Speaker 7>The bus was a relic of the old world, its

200
00:15:23.039 --> 00:15:27.320
<v Speaker 7>rusted exterior blending into the overgrowth that had claimed the

201
00:15:27.360 --> 00:15:33.240
<v Speaker 7>amusement park. Inside, the worn seats and faded upholstery told

202
00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:40.159
<v Speaker 7>stories of countless journeys long past. Now it was their refuge,

203
00:15:41.159 --> 00:15:45.200
<v Speaker 7>a fragile barrier against the wilderness that pressed in on

204
00:15:45.440 --> 00:15:52.080
<v Speaker 7>all sides. The beacon rested between them, its rhythmic pulse

205
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:57.679
<v Speaker 7>the only thing breaking the stillness. The kiss they had

206
00:15:57.720 --> 00:16:03.039
<v Speaker 7>shared lingered unspoken in the air, an invisible thread tying

207
00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:04.480
<v Speaker 7>them closer together.

208
00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:09.360
<v Speaker 5>You think this place was fun back when it wasn't

209
00:16:09.600 --> 00:16:11.200
<v Speaker 5>this Dollywood.

210
00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:16.480
<v Speaker 4>I bet it was wild, rollercoasters, music, fried food. Probably

211
00:16:16.519 --> 00:16:17.639
<v Speaker 4>the kind of place you'd hate.

212
00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:20.600
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, and what kind of place would you think?

213
00:16:20.639 --> 00:16:21.120
<v Speaker 4>I'd like?

214
00:16:21.240 --> 00:16:27.320
<v Speaker 5>Something quiet, boring, a library. Maybe you're not wrong, but

215
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:33.720
<v Speaker 5>I don't know. There's something about this place now. It's sad, yeah,

216
00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:41.799
<v Speaker 5>but it's still beautiful. It's weird, isn't it feeling happy here?

217
00:16:42.480 --> 00:16:47.679
<v Speaker 4>It's not weird. It's rare, and rare things are worth

218
00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:48.159
<v Speaker 4>holding on to.

219
00:16:50.080 --> 00:16:54.080
<v Speaker 7>The Next morning, the sunlight streamed through the tattered sheets

220
00:16:54.200 --> 00:17:00.360
<v Speaker 7>covering the windows, filling the bus with a soft golden glow.

221
00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:06.319
<v Speaker 7>Salmont stirred first, his hand brushing the beacon as he

222
00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:10.519
<v Speaker 7>sat up. The other side of the bus was empty.

223
00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:11.279
<v Speaker 4>Rylex.

224
00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:17.039
<v Speaker 7>Salmon's heart raced as he searched. He found Rylex in

225
00:17:17.079 --> 00:17:21.480
<v Speaker 7>the chapel, seated in the front pew, bathed in the

226
00:17:21.519 --> 00:17:25.960
<v Speaker 7>kaleidoscopic light streaming through the shattered stained glass.

227
00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:30.279
<v Speaker 4>You can't do that, Rylex, Okay, you can't disappear like that.

228
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:34.319
<v Speaker 3>I didn't disappear. I just needed a minute.

229
00:17:34.799 --> 00:17:37.480
<v Speaker 4>A minute. You scared the hell out of me.

230
00:17:38.359 --> 00:17:41.440
<v Speaker 3>Were you scared for me?

231
00:17:42.119 --> 00:17:44.400
<v Speaker 4>Of course I was scared for you. I don't know

232
00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:45.880
<v Speaker 4>what I would do if I lost you.

233
00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:52.519
<v Speaker 3>Salmont, You're not going to lose me. I'm here and

234
00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:54.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm not going anywhere.

235
00:17:56.680 --> 00:18:01.279
<v Speaker 7>That night, Salmont led Rylex to the heart of the park.

236
00:18:01.920 --> 00:18:04.559
<v Speaker 3>Salmont, seriously, what are you doing?

237
00:18:06.039 --> 00:18:07.119
<v Speaker 4>You'll see just.

238
00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:13.119
<v Speaker 7>Trust me, his hands covering Rylex's eyes. The air buzzed

239
00:18:13.240 --> 00:18:20.559
<v Speaker 7>faintly with energy, the park's dormant systems stirring to life.

240
00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:22.319
<v Speaker 3>You got this thing working.

241
00:18:23.519 --> 00:18:31.000
<v Speaker 4>Took me all day, but yeah, I remember the days.

242
00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:37.160
<v Speaker 7>They rode it over and over, their laughter breaking the

243
00:18:37.200 --> 00:18:41.119
<v Speaker 7>stillness of the park like a beacon of life. For

244
00:18:41.240 --> 00:18:46.119
<v Speaker 7>a few hours, the weight of the world lifted, and

245
00:18:46.160 --> 00:18:49.839
<v Speaker 7>they were just two young men chasing joy in the

246
00:18:49.960 --> 00:18:56.759
<v Speaker 7>ruins of the past. The ride slows. They're breathing soft

247
00:18:58.000 --> 00:19:01.480
<v Speaker 7>as they look out over the park from the top

248
00:19:01.559 --> 00:19:02.200
<v Speaker 7>of the track.

249
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:06.680
<v Speaker 3>This feels like how it should have been.

250
00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:10.200
<v Speaker 4>Maybe, but this right now is ours.

251
00:19:21.279 --> 00:19:26.119
<v Speaker 7>Wrapped in blankets in the safety of the bus, they

252
00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:33.160
<v Speaker 7>fell asleep, side by side, their breathing steady and synchronized,

253
00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:51.119
<v Speaker 7>but the park was not asleep. The surge of power

254
00:19:51.279 --> 00:19:58.119
<v Speaker 7>had awakened something deep within, and from the shadows eyes

255
00:19:58.319 --> 00:20:08.319
<v Speaker 7>watched the laughter, The light the life. They had disturbed,

256
00:20:08.480 --> 00:20:19.920
<v Speaker 7>something that had been restless for centuries. They have awakened

257
00:20:20.160 --> 00:20:24.519
<v Speaker 7>something that should have remained sleeping.

258
00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:41.880
<v Speaker 2>And you see them, God, and you smell them.

259
00:20:42.160 --> 00:20:42.839
<v Speaker 5>It is time.

260
00:20:44.839 --> 00:20:48.799
<v Speaker 2>They have got to take what is ours. They are

261
00:20:49.000 --> 00:21:00.359
<v Speaker 2>unworthy and we will eradicate them from our lands.

262
00:21:02.440 --> 00:21:05.799
<v Speaker 1>And there you have it, folks, another whirlwind adventure in

263

<v Speaker 1>good old fashioned danger. Did it leave you breathless?

00:21:18.519 --> 00:21:19.559

298
00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:53.279
<v Speaker 8>But it gets old.

299
00:24:56.440 --> 00:24:59.680
<v Speaker 10>It's hard to take one on your iPhones.

300
00:25:03.640 --> 00:25:08.480
