That's all my notes.
Speaker 5: I really like.
Speaker 1: Human And also we ran into.
Speaker 6: Desmond's boss balls. Yeah we talked really pretty Yeah that's true.
Speaker 1: They were stunning.

Speaker 1: That makes them even more stunning.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, I get it.
Speaker 2: I'm ride in front of that sleigh. We both have

Speaker 4: We haven't moved for this entire amount of time.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, each other, not Jesus, Jesus.
Speaker 1: I've never been happy happy.
Speaker 2: Nothing brings me joy.
Speaker 1: Yes, two boys, tiny, sad human.
Speaker 2: Laurie.
Speaker 3: Yep, nothing's ever gonna be my notes that just said
big big, but like you know, I.
Speaker 2: Try, alrighty mm hmmm mm hmm okay, okay. So the
very last thing that happened was you guys went to
Hoggins House. Sounds like a restaurant. You guys went to Hoggins.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 2: You found his records after searching for it for some time,
you broke in using tabasco. Uh, and well you found
out that there's no one. Just happened, Just do it
just happened?
Speaker 1: What? Oh you have to sneeze to take up your
son of a bitch? Oh your trap sneeze? Oh no, what.
Speaker 2: Pineapple? But I want to sneeze.
Speaker 1: It does one of two things that makes it go
away or sneeze.
Speaker 2: You guys went to hog He went to Hoggins House.
You went inside. You found his journal on a shelf
that was hidden behind a crude family portrait. The children
turned out to not be there for the reason. You
can't be certain. You guys got the notes which you have,
which indicated primarily two things of major interest. One that
these people have been congregating and were seen going to
the old mctrawe estate, one of the homes of a
former governor who used to be on the board but
no longer is, which is in the underloft pit. The
other thing you found out was that he had captured
and interrogated one of their members who was in a
shed behind the home. Who knows what's happened to them?
Who knows where they are, who knows what's going on?
Who is to say? Really? As you guys were leaving,
Lilya spotted a shadow moving amongst the houses, pointed it out,
and immediately several of you, most notably skung and took
off running to confront them. And as they turned a building,
they drew their weapon, aimed it at their pursuer, and
they saw that it was one of the undertow captains,
the Captain of Desmond, the mannequin like, white skin icy
horned Hattislin Layuna. Captain Leyuna, who stood knee to the
ground revolver pointed up towards Scarns as he sat longbow
pointed down. And it is in this situation that we return.
And just so I have something to throw on the backdrop,
I'm gonna just go ahead and share this. Here the map.
Here the map, and then onto the background goes the map,
so we can kind of see where we are a
little bit.
Speaker 12: Can you also share a.
Speaker 6: Boss?
Speaker 2: Ladies are a woman whose name I just said, Leona? Yeah, Leon,
I can do that.
Speaker 6: Oh swoon.
Speaker 1: You are a child, Yeah you are ten. No Carrie swooning,
but I just swoon.
Speaker 10: Listen if the lady reciprocates, yeahated when you swoon.
Speaker 1: But god, listen, I'm a hitting on everybody. I'm a
hit on them again.
Speaker 2: A moment of tension, we hear the tensile sound of
a a bowstring being pulled, the click of a hammer
being held back on a revolver. The rest of you,
what are you doing as he's getting into this momentary situation,
this little leducation, What were the rest of you doing?
Speaker 12: Yeah, I'm probably the same.
Speaker 1: I'm hanging over I miss and I'm gonna mute because
Barry's Morgan.
Speaker 2: You say, Devin, Jasmine, Devin, I didn't quite hear what
you said.
Speaker 13: Yeah, Yes, I'm catching up. I have small feet.
Speaker 1: Okay, Oh okay, I'm hanging.
Speaker 6: I'm following, but I'm sending to Bascar Basco further ahead.
Speaker 2: Okay, and Lilia Hopp.
Speaker 1: See that the sound on the soundboard is very appropriate.
Speaker 2: For running with digit mind walking sound effects exactly. There's
a moment between two of you. See her eyes Scarn
are shifting slightly moving, not with a nervous energy, but
with an uncertain energy as she seems to try to
track exactly what it is you're doing. She has not
immediately gone to shooting. She seems to be trying to
figure out what you're going to do as a first move.
Speaker 4: MM. I mean at this point, who are you? Why
are you tracking this house?
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm Captain Layuna of the Undertow and I'm not
tracking this house. I was watching you.
Speaker 4: How can I trust that's true?
Speaker 2: How can you trust that I'm a captain or how
can you trust that I was tracking you?
Speaker 4: How can I trust you the captain?
Speaker 2: I'm sure the Desmond would explain it to you, seeing
as how he's traveling with you.
Speaker 4: Desmond, Captain.
Speaker 2: Desmond, you have explaining to do. I suppose I do
rather than focus on why I'm trailing all of you.
Why are all of you trying to break into a
residence's home? Or should I say, why did you break
into one?
Speaker 14: I did object to that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, me meet me too. Yeah.
Speaker 4: At this point, I don't think I need to be
like holding her down. I just your at a captain
of the undertow. Yeah, I'm gonna disengage.
Speaker 2: At this point, you lax your arrow, pull back. She
stows her gun, raises up from the kneeling position that
she's in, takes a step back. Her hand stays on
the gun. However, of course, I'd like an explanation as
to what you're doing.
Speaker 15: Well, we were sent on a mission to find We
were sent on a mission to go find some people,
and after not finding them, we thought we were going
to we thought we'd investigate a little deeper.
Speaker 4: Led us to this house. We're just looking for leeds
at this point.
Speaker 2: I was recently traveling. As soon as I got back,
I found out that one of the governors had gone missing.
And I'm not sure where the orders came down from,
but I was given orders to tail people who were
coming back from the tunnels.
Speaker 1: That's who we were looking for.
Speaker 2: For you.
Speaker 1: No, we were looking for the governor.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 13: Orders came down to tail people coming back from the tunnels.
If we can trace that back up the line, it'd
be good to know who gave those orders. We we
went down to the hollowyard looking for Governor DERMONTI. We
didn't find anything, but we ended up encountering a strange
situation with an undead and some others who were stealing
corpses from the hollowyards, you know the cases.
Speaker 2: I wasn't aware that it was all of you until
I started trailing you, and I saw you were the
ones to come back. But the nature of my orders
seemed to imply that there was some suspicion that a
group that was sent to find Dermante was a cover
for those that took him. Why were you in that
person's house?
Speaker 13: He ended up dying chasing down the people who kidnapped
or rather when I stole his wife's corpse. And we
have reasonability that those are the same people who have
been stealing the corpses around the hollow yards.
Speaker 2: Do you have any kind of proof of this?
Speaker 14: I have his notes. You're welcome to look at them.
Speaker 2: They put their hand out, I wasn't aware that so
many bodies had been taken from the hollyards until I
got there myself. It wasn't the case before the last
time I was there. That assuming that you have them
still held out. She takes the records the means reading
them as she speaks out loud. I was there on
personal business with a friend of mine.
Speaker 14: We just missed you. I think you left her earlier
in the day.
Speaker 2: I was suspicious about that fact. I had found out
about your mission of being sent down there, or rather
that a group was sent down there when I returned,
but I thought it was strange that I hadn't bumped
into you on the way back. The tunnels are spans
of I suppose.
Speaker 13: A hollowkeeper was under the impression that the yard was
declared full, and that's why members of the undertow have
been coming in and directing unknown assistance in exhuming bodies
and taking them out.
Speaker 2: That's ridiculous.
Speaker 14: It's his tale.
Speaker 13: And we have a letter with a governor's seal on
it to accompany it, along with some other documentation, and
gave us to cap Bro and he's passing it along.
Speaker 2: Dendron. We'll find out soon then, the governors are probably
going to speak about it. If the implication is that
one of the governors might be involved in this, any
information that gets back to them could be used or hidden.
This seems to be implying that Hoggins, she glances up
at the house, tracked them into the underloft pit.
Speaker 13: And whatever you found there killed him.
Speaker 2: The old Mctroth's date people generally avoid that place.
Speaker 14: A bunch of old fairy tales around that spot.
Speaker 2: A good place to set up a base, I suppose,
although if you're trying to carry dead bodies in there
for storage, as seems to be these people's m o
be somewhat difficult. You'd have to walk it right through
the center of the pit.
Speaker 4: Is in it right next to the house of uplifting
it is.
Speaker 13: It's an orphanage. Oh, not just that you'd have to
walk right past the underloft.
Speaker 2: It's a bold place. It's a good place to hide,
but going to and from there would draw a lot
of attention, depending on when you did it, and depending
on if there was another way in Mctrauwe was a
bit of an eccentric.
Speaker 13: So I would think there might be some tunnels connected
to it. And we just don't know about somehow he
got there, was taken somewhere else and ended up at
a hollow yard that's almost two days away. And he
wasn't exactly a quick shambler.
Speaker 2: I was briefly apprised of the situation going on here.
Hoggins has been missing for quite some time, long enough
that one of the reasons I was staking out this
area is his children ended up going to the Undertow
to try to find out where their parents were, and
after an unsuccessful investigation, they were moved to the house
of uplifting until their parents came back.
Speaker 4: It's another kids, all right.
Speaker 13: Unfortunately, I don't think their parent is.
Speaker 14: Going to be returning in a terim soon.
Speaker 2: If they are going to the old mctraw's state, that
implicates old man mctraw he still lives in there.
Speaker 14: It definitely points their in his direction.
Speaker 2: Unless there's any objections, I'm going to take what you found.
I'm going to run it up the chain of command,
and I'm going to see if I can get permission
to raid the old mctrath's state.
Speaker 14: I see no reason why that he is unacceptable.
Speaker 2: In the meantime, Undertow soldiers undertow guards have fallen under suspicion,
and I'm still not entirely certain this isn't something of
a smoke screen. So for the time being, Desmond, I
would like you to consider yourself off duty at least
until we can clear that you weren't involved in what's
going on in the hollow Yards.
Speaker 13: Oh, feel free to look into it, but I'm pretty
well documented as to where I've been.
Speaker 15: I think we fought these guys. I don't know if
he would fight his own allies.
Speaker 2: It's not as if I have bodies as proof. I
only have your word to go on. We'll need to
send people to the hollow Yards to verify what happened.
That's going to take some time, the better part of
a week for people to get down there and back.
We'll probably also want to wait until the governors can
have their meeting or Dendron calls for one. You can
consider this off your plate. Their eyes move rather coldly
to each of you.
Speaker 1: Eh, hello, so how you doing?
Speaker 2: You have a protege something like that. They turn and
they walk away.
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, she likes me.
Speaker 14: You flirt with my captain. I'm going to throw you
in a lake.
Speaker 1: Well, it just kind of makes people want to do
it more.
Speaker 14: You want to be thrown in a lake?
Speaker 1: No, I just you know she's off limits.
Speaker 4: Oh pretty intense, boss, you've got there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like it.
Speaker 14: Shoes to be more sociable.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 10: There's just a little urge to just like give Laurence
the littlest tug of the ear, just.
Speaker 1: Like, no, but but she's so hot though.
Speaker 9: You're too young.
Speaker 12: How do you have a perception of this at your age?
Speaker 6: Didn't she's just coming up from behind Lilia. Shouldn't it
be like still.
Speaker 5: Kind of like playing with like sticks and why you're
like a night or a warrior, not freaking getting in
between the sheet beauty in the world.
Speaker 1: And also play with sticks if I want to.
Speaker 3: Also, you guys keep being like why aren't you playing
with sticks and dirt?
Speaker 1: Why can't I have toys?
Speaker 5: He know, that's freaking You give a guy a stick
and they're like, yeah, sometimes.
Speaker 2: An you're not wrong.
Speaker 7: Sticks are but like yeah, oh my god, you get
a stick and lack a hoop ship.
Speaker 5: Like skarn if I gave you a big stick.
Speaker 4: What is my bottle but a big stick? Ow you? Okay?
Speaker 5: Exactly like scar plays with a big stick all the time.
Speaker 6: I'm glad we all heard that, right, you hear what
you want to hear. So are like, we're not done
with this, right, Yeah.
Speaker 15: I don't think I'm just gonna drop this out of nowhere.
Speaker 4: Doesn't I have no idea.
Speaker 13: What to do right now?
Speaker 6: This is all right?
Speaker 4: Oh, come on, you can't just drop this out of nowhere.
Speaker 13: My captain officially took me off the case.
Speaker 15: I don't know, You're just you're just gonna follow every
You're not at least a little bit interested. Come on,
we fought, We fought eldridge horse.
Speaker 6: And Pepper thinks back to the eldridge horse she summoned
to tear them all apart.
Speaker 12: Well, I don't know if that's the problem.
Speaker 6: It's not chewing on my damn shrugged Tabasco, all right, No,
when he's nibbling on my freaking neck and ears you
little stinker and just kissing him on the face, which
I'm sure he hates.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you bitter animal handling.
Speaker 1: Grab I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna get this Pepper.
Speaker 6: Pepper preemptively grab uh Tabasco's stinger, just seeing Lawrence's I
just don't want him to get stung because I feel
like Lawrence will Lawrence can take a bet.
Speaker 2: Well, you're getting slightly better. He still really hates you though.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna get you. We're I'm gonna get him.
Speaker 13: It still was probably one of the worst things that
could have happened here there, But I feel like it
was one hundred percent improvement on last time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a little better.
Speaker 3: If it keeps getting a little better, it'll be okay.
Speaker 6: You didn't even tug that hard at my hand with
the stinger. The stinger is what you gotta avoid.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, that that that's the scary part of
the Bosco. I'm gonna get you, a little man. We're
gonna be best friends, you.
Speaker 6: Know, all right.
Speaker 2: It reels up and you see its chest puff up
a little bit, and she goes and like its neck
curls back, and then it just lets out a at
you in the tiniest little bit of smoke comes out
of its throat toward you.
Speaker 12: That was really good, Tabasca.
Speaker 6: That was like, that was like.
Speaker 9: He's working on it. He hasn't gotten to a flame yet.
Speaker 6: But.
Speaker 1: Potential fire at me, Well, he.
Speaker 9: Ain't got no gaass so it's fine.
Speaker 1: I hope he doesn't smoky.
Speaker 3: Blanks, smoky bank smoky blanks.

Speaker 2: Towards you with just like an eyebrows crunch, like.
Speaker 9: All right, you don't have to like it, Okay, Okay.
Speaker 1: I hear you.
Speaker 6: I I literally hear you in my head. All right,
thank you, thank you. Basco.
Speaker 1: Has he breathes fire before? Has he ever done it?
Speaker 6: He tries, but like, okay, before it was just like
you would hear, like in his throat and then like
litle papa smoke. But this papa smoke's getting bigger. So
I don't know. Maybe he's cooking some.
Speaker 12: Stuff in there.
Speaker 6: I don't know about dragons.
Speaker 3: Okay, huh uh, I mean I feel bad, but for
my own safety, I kind of hope he doesn't improve.
Speaker 5: Huh m hmm ah.
Speaker 16: Hold on, I'm gonna look at her bag really quick

are talking, Yes, you guys all hear a very clear
purfo coming from up above you.
Speaker 19: Oh I look up, you look up and you see
it on top of the house that you guys chased
later to the side of sitting on top of the
roof with its tail sort of flitting back and forth.
Speaker 2: There is is what looks like a common looking white
house cat just looking down at all of you. We're
just about ten twelve feet upish and just tilting its
head a potato.
Speaker 1: Wait, oh you know this cat? Its name's Potato.
Speaker 14: Yeah, that's potato. That's potato.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, no, But who is this cat?
Speaker 14: Oh? I don't know.

Speaker 1: The street cut no.
Speaker 13: Problem, blunks to somebody, chill cat, it's a cat.
Speaker 6: Tater, you want to come down here?
Speaker 2: You see it's eyebrows like furl as if that annoys it.
Speaker 1: Is with all these angry as.
Speaker 6: Good Can I squint at this cat? Is this a
familiar you do?
Speaker 2: The cat squints back?
Speaker 12: I will?
Speaker 6: Are you yelling at the cat?
Speaker 3: I know I was just saying, mew with the cat?
Speaker 2: Did it disappears back on to like further on top
of the roof.
Speaker 14: Have a good day of Potato.
Speaker 4: What are you doing, Potato? Why are you here?
Speaker 14: Are you interrogating a cat.
Speaker 4: Yes, why are you here?
Speaker 2: You're here just a distant like further up.
Speaker 4: Nice?
Speaker 5: Understand my cat in system has failed me yet again.
Speaker 2: Oh no, we have likes for that.
Speaker 14: You could just adopt one.
Speaker 5: No, I would want one. I want one to adopt me.
Speaker 6: When they choose you.
Speaker 9: It's not always the best thing.
Speaker 14: Won't you to live in the dropping edge?
Speaker 4: Like?
Speaker 13: I don't know how many cats wander over that way?
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 14: You should hang.
Speaker 13: Out uptown or downtown. There's probably more cats over there
than there would be in the dropping Edge.
Speaker 6: I will.
Speaker 4: All right.
Speaker 2: Jesus gets on motorcycle.
Speaker 1: Long show man.
Speaker 6: Sick made a soundboard.
Speaker 2: Pulls top on a motorcycle, sunglass on his forehead, Yeah,
pushes them down.
Speaker 9: Now, that's a cool.
Speaker 14: Potato goes hard.
Speaker 2: License plate on the back of the motorcycle. That just
says T A t r ZS.
Speaker 6: Oh my god, I knew that was his nickname.
Speaker 1: That what's sick?
Speaker 9: So heavy metal?
Speaker 13: There's a fatter one named Guy Peririe.
Speaker 2: Beautiful?
Speaker 1: Okay, it's very good. God?
Speaker 6: Are we are we like basically at Desmond's place at
this point?
Speaker 1: Sure?
Speaker 14: I put my stuff, I mean.
Speaker 2: Three houses away, so you're good. You went basically like there.
Speaker 3: Helly, once we get there, I'm like super like making
myself at home because I've been here like a lot,
like going to like getting myself a drink.
Speaker 9: And like to look back in here, I'm kind of boring.
Speaker 14: Uh, there's not a whole lot.
Speaker 6: I don't believe on the.
Speaker 13: Walls, there's uh, there's like a couch and the roofs
are a bit tiny because he doesn't really need the
extra space.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I think Scorn in here.
Speaker 13: Scarn definitely would have an experience akin to Dumbledore's. Yeah again,
you know when Double Dore went to Middle Earth, I
thought that that franchise got much cooler, and then they
just decided to change.
Speaker 2: Is a wizard precisely when he means to, Yeah he
is is a Gandalf experience with you, for sure.
Speaker 14: Yeah. A lot of old furniture, a lot of stuff
that looks.
Speaker 13: Like it's either he just got it from like his
parents or something else, and he just never decided to
upgrade it because it still works.
Speaker 6: Right scuccio for Laurie.
Speaker 2: By the bat that looks like this.
Speaker 14: It allows me to live.
Speaker 1: I keep telling him you should decorate more.
Speaker 13: I mean not here that.
Speaker 1: That is true. Busy man married to his job. Real shame.
You only can find a nice lady treat and right
decorate this place.
Speaker 14: One of life's greatest mysteries. I suppose, m M.
Speaker 1: I agree.
Speaker 13: Anyways, I just literally wanted to put my cloak away
because I'm not working unless you guys want to just
stay here.
Speaker 4: I mean like I got my own.
Speaker 14: I don't mean like I don't want to kick you out.
Speaker 13: I'm just saying, like, if you wanted to talk or
do anything, we could do it here.
Speaker 14: We can go to the wolf.
Speaker 4: Ah.
Speaker 13: I have no plans.
Speaker 1: If we want to talk about secret stuff, wouldn't it
be better to talk about it here?
Speaker 13: Probably unless you're loud enough that the neighbors here you,
in which case it wouldn't be very secret.
Speaker 6: I will do my best, but make no promise.
Speaker 1: Yeah, doesn't. How much do you like trust your captain implicitly?
Speaker 14: Okay?
Speaker 13: I've worked with them, I mean the entirety of my
career with the Undertow and before that, I've seen her
face around town for.
Speaker 14: Basically in my whole life.
Speaker 13: I mean, i think I'm older than her, so you know,
whenever they decided to show up as a functional human
being or person. Weird we say that before you think
about it.
Speaker 2: Humans are known for their functional behavior and as such
are the standard for functional human industrious folks.
Speaker 6: They're humans.
Speaker 2: They're also known so well for their compassion ergo the
phrase humansanity. Your human humans so compassionate in general, So
kindness and not being the source of the industrial anyways.
Speaker 6: Oh the normanity.
Speaker 2: Okay, So I want to be the mortality how me?
Speaker 3: I don't want to like upset you or anything, but like,
do you think there's any chance that she's like in
on what's going on?
Speaker 13: Are we talking about my personal feelings? Are we're talking
about looking.
Speaker 1: At the facts, looking at the facts.
Speaker 13: Looking at the facts, I wouldn't rate them off factoring
and how I feel.
Speaker 14: I feel it's unlikely.
Speaker 16: Mhm.
Speaker 1: So we know that someone or multiple people in the
undertow doing stuff.
Speaker 14: That's correct.
Speaker 1: My berry scratching at this looking door.
Speaker 13: That's the neighbor's dog. I'm trying to throw them into
the sun. Unfortunately we're underground.
Speaker 20: I like potato much more than I like them.
Speaker 15: They were going, They did say they were going to
take it to their higher ups.
Speaker 4: How to us the word they are then.
Speaker 13: I mean, if you're asking me that again, I have
a level of there's only a few responses I can
give you. I trust the Undertow. If we're looking at
throwing that up the chain, the right people should see it.
If there are wrong people now probably also see it.
But as an organization, the Undertow is here for the
good of the pits.
Speaker 2: How like.
Speaker 1: Bad could this be? If it's like really high up?
If the higher ups are involved in this.
Speaker 13: I mean, clearly they have access to a governor seal,
so that lets them get through some doors that are
a bit harder to open. Outside that, I mean, the
worst has already begun to show itself. If they can
access under to a uniforms and masquerade is official business,
they can basically walk under people's very noses and it
would be unlikely anyone would find out.
Speaker 14: Up till now.
Speaker 13: Of course.
Speaker 21: That's the case.
Speaker 1: Is there anything we could even do?
Speaker 6: Well, aren't we still employed by the to look into
the stuff with the governor? I know we got four
days off, but that's still our job with them, right.
Speaker 13: If we're literally speaking, you were contracted for the dive
and that job is ending. However, I'm off the case,
specifically in regards to the missing corpses, so I could
look into the governor, right, although I'm also because she
told me to consider myself off duty, so there's.
Speaker 4: Off duty, doesn't hobbies.
Speaker 14: I'll just have to.
Speaker 13: I can't act in any official capacity, which is unfortunate.
Speaker 3: But like you can still work on investigator is like
a civilian.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I mean we're going to be looking into
other stuff, so I.
Speaker 13: Mean I can't wear to look away either. Yes, it's
I'm in quite the spot.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 6: What will you do?
Speaker 13: I mean, not look into the mission bodies, and I
will look into the mission governor.
Speaker 6: Ah. I guess that's a victory in some ways.
Speaker 13: That way, I'm doing kind of what I was told,
and that's.
Speaker 14: The right way to do things.
Speaker 6: Yes, all right, okay, you'll take kinda all right, all right,
well I agree. Interesting mm hmm.
Speaker 15: Well how do you go about that? Honestly, I'm more
concerned about the kids. I want to see how you're doing.
Speaker 13: I mean, I have no problem doing a not even
as a member of the under twe but as a neighbor.
I'd love to pop by check on them.
Speaker 4: That wouldn't be official business at.
Speaker 12: All right, no, wha, what would it?
Speaker 6: I like, flick scarn, it's don't if I'm burn out up,
but I'm pay Okay, I'm just saying, if you say
it might be.
Speaker 13: Off neighbors Okay, it's not official.
Speaker 6: We're on the same page, were you neighborly.
Speaker 1: Well, neighbor well check we're talking about the House of Uplifting.
Speaker 6: So, but there's obviously it's not a one person job.
I mean, not a full Greek job.
Speaker 4: You okay, buddy, you look a little tense, you're looking.
Speaker 1: A little No, I'm fine, so no, I'm fine. Yeah,
uh yeah, I've gotta.
Speaker 3: You gotta go to the House of Uplifting and check
on the kids.
Speaker 6: Well, is that something we all gotta do? I mean,
we could probably research more than one thing at the
same time. I could look into the missing governor slashed,
this whole necromancy nonsense.
Speaker 3: It sounds really important, and like you maybe need help.
I could I could help Pepper do that?
Speaker 6: Yeah, of course I do.
Speaker 12: Yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 6: Like wrap my arm around and put them into a
little headlock because you sit next.
Speaker 12: Take the skirt with me.
Speaker 9: Oh my god.
Speaker 6: I give them a little hug afterwards.
Speaker 1: You hell yeah, I can.
Speaker 6: I can maybe look up that and lack uptown see
what research research I can stir up.
Speaker 14: What do you think you're looking for?
Speaker 6: Well, on account of this pit being I mean it's big,
but I assume if anyone's looking into necromantic means, they
got to get at the supplies for that from somewhere.
Are they outsourcing? Might be able to look into some
of the shops around here, see if any of the
components for spells or stuff are going missing or being bought.
Speaker 9: Who's buying them? Are they buying them in bulk?
Speaker 13: I was canvassing like that across the entire pits is
going to take a couple of days at least.
Speaker 6: All right, Tabasco, stop scratching at the door.
Speaker 14: Cabasco made that noise.
Speaker 9: He's very talented, very impressive.
Speaker 13: Honestly, my frustration with the neighbor's dog turned into amazement
at your thing.
Speaker 9: Pseudo dragon.
Speaker 6: Yeah, just call them dragon, little dragon. He's my dragon. Well,
I probably wouldn't be doing it all in one a
big area. I mean, I would be doing it all
the way up to the Uptown area on my way back.
Speaker 13: The only other option you really have right now or
strongest lead is the olden Cross.
Speaker 6: State Where where's about that on the map right the house?
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 9: It's I like, nudge lor it ain't good about us.
We can go there.
Speaker 13: Yeah, look, there's a magical barrier that keeps you inside
or anything.
Speaker 1: We got this. I love that got my buster.
Speaker 5: Sorry, I probably shouldn't keep my papa hanging actively taller
than me.
Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean I don't want to keep you.
Speaker 5: I still do have to ask Papa about those grades whatever.
That weird dude was lingering there and seems to be
hinting something funny. I should probably ask Papa.
Speaker 12: M m, hey, yeah, follow the weird gullie.
Speaker 5: I mean I could also just, you know, go into
the church of Kara Gosh bust in the door myself
and say, hey, you very attractive priest.
Speaker 13: He's only about but ten fifteen minutes away if you
want to stop.
Speaker 5: I mean I could, but.
Speaker 1: Like maybe have information.
Speaker 6: Yeah, we got at answering questions when we were there.
Speaker 5: I doubt he wouldn't answer me over there either.
Speaker 14: Sure, he's weird. Also, he might not be back m
not too.
Speaker 5: He might alse just not be there, and then he's
gonna feel weird. You'll then he'll come in and he'll
be like, were you waiting for me? And I'll be like, no,
I wasn't dubid.
Speaker 1: I mean, or you could go intimidation tactic and be like, yeah,
it was.
Speaker 5: Oh do I look intimidating to you, Lauren?
Speaker 3: I mean you could, like, I believe that you could
be intimidating if you wanted to be.
Speaker 1: I think you could be anything you want to be.
Speaker 5: Violence is not allowed in Karra Goosh's panctuary.
Speaker 3: Okay, but but she isn't violence.
Speaker 6: It's implies insit, Yeah, insight and violence.
Speaker 1: But you know, do what we want to do. I
don't know what I know. I will consider it cool.
Speaker 14: Oh, potato.
Speaker 1: Born berry and sore and are both in here.
Speaker 3: And so when you're trying to climb the blankets on
my fucking wall, and I'm like, I'm trying to be
child animals, potato sounds a lot of plans like which
which leads to me, that's more important.
Speaker 6: Well, aren't we gonna lack put her hands together in
the center go thirty two one break and then like.
Speaker 1: Sure, we want Lillie to be by yourself.
Speaker 13: I mean, we could take a look at the house
of uplifting, check in on the kids if you want
to talk to your dad after that. It's getting a
little late. It's around dinner time now. I think it's
like four three or four. Yeah, we're getting close to
it by the time you get back, assuming we started now, you'd.
Speaker 14: Be getting on in the evening.
Speaker 13: Hmm. We could either shave it for tomorrow or you
could meet afterwards and take a look at the night.
But if we're going to check on those kids, we
should check before it gets too late. I'm sure they
have all lights out policy after a certain time.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm not going to let stuff keep hanging.
Speaker 13: So and the old mccross state is going to be
the old mccross state.
Speaker 2: Fortraw forever withdraw mctraw, draw raw.
Speaker 13: Okay, I should correctly my apologies, old man mctrawe wherever
you are.
Speaker 14: I think he's alive.
Speaker 4: So I hadn't explained to him like he's dead.
Speaker 14: That would be now he could be dead.
Speaker 3: Actually, that would be bad that it's him in a
fucking Scooby Doo mask.
Speaker 1: He's in a zombie mask. We're like, well it was
old ma'am.
Speaker 2: Fraud the entire it's all tax evasion. Everything is all
tax evasion.
Speaker 1: Fucking new it, bitch.
Speaker 6: Goddamn.
Speaker 12: Read it.
Speaker 3: So Brey right, So, so me and Pepper are going
to try to research what potentially could have happened with
the governor and the nec romance are going on, and
you guys are going to go to the House of
Uplifting and then talk to lily Is dad and then
we're all gonna have dinner and sleep like meet back here.
Speaker 13: I just don't understand what you guys are looking into.
Like there's no books you can crack. You could go
to stores and ask. But being honest, if I was
running a store and he said, who's been buying all
this stuff and you weren't a remember the undertow, I'd
be a little suspicious. I mean, especially after a captain
lightly indicated that they might be investigating not just me,
but probably everyone with me under the assumption that we
might be kidnapping bodies from follow yards.
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, uh Me, Pepper and LILYA go and talk
to Lily's dad about the grave things, and that dog
calms the fuck down and Scarn and Desmond.
Speaker 1: You guys go to the House of Uplifting a check
on the kids.
Speaker 12: Hey, sounds okay to me.
Speaker 13: If you guys want to figure stuff out, I mean
you'll be walking the same way anyways. If you said
you're heading towards uptown, right, mm hmmm, that'll be oh yeah,
it's about equidistant for.
Speaker 14: Lily to get home.

to get up to as far as Low Market. And
as you go through Low Market and you pass by
a large effectively just a large market complex. It's the
closest thing you could find to like a supermarket or whatnot,
one large building in which there are a great many
of smaller stores. As you're passing by the outside, going
around the outside of it, you do hear calling out

plenty of times. We have a very you're new here,
I take it we have a lot of halflings and nomes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like to get a few extra inches.
Speaker 2: I personally myself am relatively okay with my my diminutive stature,
but certainly I'm sorry. I do need to get to
the heart of the matter, glor I understand you've been
doing some work with the Undertow or for the BBTA lately.
I is what I've picked.
Speaker 1: Up technically both.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I did some asking around and I found out that
you'd gone down.
Speaker 1: Into the pit expert skills.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Well, like I said, I'm technically working with
both seeing somewhere I want to go.
Speaker 1: So who needs my expert skills?
Speaker 2: Well, I can'd come by your house a few times
to see how your mother was doing, and I was
trying to bring supplies normally I know that she's been
too sick to answer the door, but no one had,
and I got worried. I was this close to going
to the Undertow to find out if something had happened.
Speaker 1: No, you don't need to worry about her. She's she's
doing good.
Speaker 3: I I made sure one of our neighbors Billiam her Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Billiam, Yeah.
Speaker 3: I made sure that he would check in on her
while while I was gone, and he kept me.
Speaker 2: O, how nice William.
Speaker 6: He's great. Yeah, yeah, William Boffman love that guy. Yeah,
upstanding folk.
Speaker 2: Hm joke. That's like a nickname you have from Okay. Certainly,
the chances of you randomly yes in the last name
of a person we've decided is reels very low. Sorry
for not yes, had Certainly.
Speaker 9: I didn't know this person was real.
Speaker 12: I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: I thought you were.
Speaker 6: Pepper might have been trying to help you, brother, I
appreciate it. Save offman, I am cookie. That is a
that is a guy from a complete different count my bed.
Speaker 1: You travel around so much for Vonnegut.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh my god, I'm talking about right. Yeah good, yeah, yeah,
he's been checking in a moment.
Speaker 2: She's doing.
Speaker 1: She's still pretty sick, but she's she's doing.
Speaker 2: How long has it been now? She's been unwell for
quite some time. I must say things are falling apart.
Ever so well, not falling apart. I don't want to
put that kind of pressure on on on her, but uh,
the shop could certainly use her help.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's really, really talented.
Speaker 3: She feels terrible, like you know, like emotionally because she's
not there, but also you know, physically because she's sick. Yeah,
but she's so excited to get back on her feet
and get back to helping you.
Speaker 2: Oh, well, she should be concerned primarily with getting better,
not with getting back to work. But I do appreciate
her gusto. She always was such a go getter.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's great.
Speaker 2: Is there anything I can pass along that might make
things easy? I could send buy some food. I could
maybe send up to the clinic and try to get
some medicine. What was it that was wrong with her again?
Speaker 1: Oh, we're still not entirely sure.
Speaker 3: It's it's a bunch of different symptoms, and that's why
it's really hard for her to get better so quickly.
Like you know, like one day she's got like low energy,
and then like the next day it's it's like her
energy is fine, but then she'll have fever.
Speaker 1: Her it's hard to pin down.
Speaker 2: Has has she been to c Kyberium yet? Not yet? Excellent? Well,
not excellent. But if that's hers, I could head to
the southwest of clinic and maybe I could ask them
if they could make a home busy.
Speaker 1: No, she doesn't want to worry anybody.
Speaker 3: And and like I said, like just me and me

but it is contagious, so we want to have as
few people there as possible.

Speaker 1: Murrae is just really kind.

Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: What does her mom have?
Speaker 3: I don't know, like I said, or symptoms keep changing,
so we don't know, but I'm sure should be better soon.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we should go see your dad.
Speaker 5: Okay, Yeah, you're right all right this way.
Speaker 2: So are you guys heading as far as uptown or
are you just circling around and going straight back to
uh dropping edge?
Speaker 6: I mean, personally, I'd like to go up to uptown
and do a lookie Lou. I know I understand that.
I mean, I understand that they might be on their
toes a little bit with the undertoe investigation going on,
but I've got my own ways to figure in this out.
Speaker 10: Yeah, we can take the longer route and go through
the through uptown and everything.
Speaker 26: Okay, wait, I'll take it like an extra half an
hour ish Okay, up town Pepper.
Speaker 12: You've been living in upcount Pepper.
Speaker 2: Really really squished that in, really nailed those nailing it up.
Speaker 6: Never really wonder Upper Pepper. Why all right? Come on, y'all, alright.
Speaker 2: You guys, You head up through the downtown pit, the
pit that is, the large cave like entrance to the
lower areas. At this point, you can see sunlight, though
it's they wouldn't be getting dark or anything. You see
sunlight pouring in through the large entrance of the same
place where the cave opens up. You head towards it
and you emerge outside. It is on account of the
fact that it's currently oh wait, actually no, it would
probably be starting to get a little bit dark as
of this this point, because it's evening ish November, you
guys would be getting a little bit dark at this point.
The sky is a little bit dark. As you head outside,
there's some frost on the grounds. There's like still green
trees and such surrounding the area, but you see on them.
There's there's a very light frost to everything outside and frost.
It's the slightest little bit cold. It's actually much warmer
in the caves. As you guys what would you like
to do in uptown? Sorry?
Speaker 6: Uh, we talked about stores before and you were like, oh,
there are a lot of them. We should talk about
this at some point.
Speaker 2: Sure, I would like to.
Speaker 12: Talk about it now, could we cond we talk about that?
Speaker 2: Now?
Speaker 9: Are there any like magic stores?
Speaker 6: Or I should vest something at the red Store scene
if they were seeing cell any fabric similar to the
undertose because it could be manifest But I didn't do that,
so we're not gonna.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So shops and whatnot that are in Uptown are
mostly like knickknacked places and tourism based places.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 2: There's a little theater where occasionally there's performances put on. Uh,
there's general like there's that there'd be a story go
to for like hunting Gear and the like.
Speaker 6: Glory should perform there at the theaters the Buck Theater.
Speaker 13: Hilariously, if you're looking into textiles, you'd want to Maurice.
Speaker 2: I know, so soon?
Speaker 6: Can't we go back?
Speaker 12: Can we do?
Speaker 6: Hey? Hey, gang, I just had a great idea about
some questions I think we should do.
Speaker 3: Maybe if you want to talk to Maurice more.
Speaker 6: Not today, we don't got it. We don't today.
Speaker 3: Kid, I mean I already talked film like, he's probably
gonna ask me more questions later, So if we talked
him today, it's probably fine.
Speaker 2: I'm switching.
Speaker 6: You want, there's like one hundred one thousand percent that
there are no stores up here that would sell anything
questionable or to look in the uh so kind of
places that would sell the semantic components for necromantic spells.
Speaker 2: So somatic components are physical movements? You mean material components? Theself? God?
Speaker 1: You you bet? I do? That's the one I get them.
Speaker 12: I get them fucking mixed up all the time.
Speaker 2: So hard to say, because you know, this is still
Rettia and magic is not selling people practice super duper
duper openly. But it is better here because we're basically
as far away from the academy as we can possibly
get here. So let me answer your question. Uh So,
there's not really a lot of places that are like
the magic shop. I'd say, if you wanted to find
out if people are like getting the things that you'd
use for necromancy, I would need you to roll in
our ConA check to see if you had a strong
understanding of what you were looking for.
Speaker 6: Sure, yes, I would be looking for not like the
claw of evil and destiny, but more like those things
that kind of looks like, oh you need like a
piece of string for this spell that brings someone back
and like eats everyone. That's fucking weird. Okay, uh ourcna,
our canna. Let's roll that is, there's a five.
Speaker 2: Based on what you can Most of the components for
necromancy are the things necromancy is being done on, things
like grave dirt and clay from grave sites and bodies
and such.
Speaker 6: I thought I would have thought of something by the
time we.
Speaker 12: Got up here.
Speaker 2: You hear a sound now that you're backing uptown, you
hear a sound coming from a little bit down the road. No,
as you guys, no got a sound as you guys
are outstanding. You see the bridge, the large stone bridge
that crosses over the river that flows into Gilligan's Pit.
You see standing on one of the parts of the
railing of it, just looking over you see here distant
from the same white cat.
Speaker 6: Oh god, damn, Hey, hey that.
Speaker 2: Kid, dude.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know you following us?
Speaker 6: It's just a stupid cat. Why would it be following us?
Speaker 5: We have nothing to offer it as far as I know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't like or anything. It's not like looking
for us to give it trades.
Speaker 5: Where's the cat again? Relative to it?
Speaker 2: To us, it's like twenty thirty feet away from you, guys,
on on the railing of the bridge. That's right, if
you have the map, open map bridge okay.
Speaker 6: Or maybe the owner is not like next to Desmond.
Maybe they live up here and the cat just likes
to travel the tunnels. You ain't ever seen those slack
cat run around the tunnels. I've seeing it plenty.
Speaker 5: It'd be dirty.
Speaker 3: I mean, there's also definitely magic that lets you turn
into animals. And Asman's captain said, he was because I
said she was following us, and she turned into a
cat and is following us, and she's still following us.
Speaker 1: And she's his cat. I think I'm onto something. You guys,
it's your crush.
Speaker 6: What are you gonna do?
Speaker 1: I don't have a crush.
Speaker 6: Calm down, you're all like she's had.
Speaker 5: Said you.
Speaker 6: Shouldn't.
Speaker 1: Why not?
Speaker 7: That's the first part, all right, whatever, Laura.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try to approach this cat.
Speaker 6: Logan, Oh yeah, roll another animal handle.
Speaker 1: And that you Laura?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 6: Dad?
Speaker 2: Oh fuck? Do you approach the cat's eyes follow you.
Its head doesn't turn, it just its eyes follow you,
and then it blinks and it looks straight ahead again.
Speaker 1: What was her name again?
Speaker 2: Leon?
Speaker 6: Leona, Leona, Yona. Cat?
Speaker 1: Look at me, Cat, look at me, cat, Potato, look
at me?
Speaker 6: All right, tatter? I got this Tato blink twice? If
you are not a cat, is that what you want
me to do?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah? You become aware of how of the fact
that this cat, apart from just now when it was
looking at and then away from LORI, that it does
not seem to blink.
Speaker 1: It's on.
Speaker 3: I wish you guys stop lying.
Speaker 12: Cat.
Speaker 1: I know you're an undertone member.
Speaker 12: It's just a step a cat.
Speaker 9: You gotta let it go, Laurie, it's.
Speaker 2: Just distinct inside.
Speaker 1: Oh, Chris, you have no modern part of this either.
Speaker 2: Fuck me.
Speaker 1: That's a seven.
Speaker 2: Cats cat.
Speaker 1: Cats be catten. Can we closed it?
Speaker 25: Can?
Speaker 1: Can we close the distance between us and the camp?
Speaker 2: I mean those two I think have approached.
Speaker 3: It, approached it along with them.
Speaker 10: I'm just gonna try to pet it.
Speaker 2: It sits, it remains almost perfectly still. It seems indifferent
to being pet.
Speaker 1: Make a cat check.
Speaker 10: Well, no, she's gonna be petting it, and then she's
gonna grab it by the scruff, so its cat deactivates.
Speaker 1: A genius.
Speaker 2: You do. Oh my god, Its head kind of tilts
up a little bit, its eyes lock onto pepper, and
it just lets out and irritated.
Speaker 6: Oh oh, I don't know if potato lacks that potato
can't feel a thing. No, I'm definitely sure that adult
cats holding them that way is like really bad for them.
Hold on and I'll like running over and polite like
try to. If Lily resists, I'm gonna be like, I
can't help. You can't, but I'm gonna try.
Speaker 2: I can.
Speaker 5: I can support him from from this from his bottom
while holding them there, but crazy, you grab him from
here from the scruff.
Speaker 1: I wish I had a way of a spell match.
Speaker 5: Chat that's a sixteen three nineteen.
Speaker 2: As you're doing it from the intensifies, it gets into
a small ground. As you guys are talking about it,
it just you see what looks like an uncharacteristically intelligent
sigh followed by this, release my neck. Let's go of
me please?
Speaker 10: Okay, And you weren't just puts down, put down, cross
his arms?
Speaker 27: Okay, whatence talk?

You are wrong. It points one of its it's pause
towards the door. Lawrence Laurie, Right enough, you weren't just

a cat. I deserved by the stroy of.
Speaker 5: My neck because you look suspicious.
Speaker 6: I tried to mm hmm.
Speaker 5: If you if you're supposed to be a sweet little
cat digging around and digging around in the pits, you'd
at least be dirty. Any person is thrown enough to
disguise themselves, A cat would know at least that much.
Speaker 2: Not disguised as a cat.
Speaker 5: And are you actually a cat?
Speaker 13: Notatural business?

attention earlier than the tiny one called me a vegetable.

up my operation here.

that move forward your investigation, because while you've been gone,
I have been using my feeline hours together and to

Speaker 2: In my time, we would practice a particular skill called memory, and.
Speaker 5: I I try.
Speaker 6: Do you know how hard it is to remember everything?
Speaker 2: I'm gonna write it down somehow, considering your current situation,
I suppose it's maybe a little bit obvious. Did you
find it hard to memorize things?
Speaker 6: Okay?
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, you read read your pad? Read it?
Speaker 6: Fine?
Speaker 9: You want the stuff about okay, I'll just dive into it.
Speaker 6: Right.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 9: We were down there and there was this guy who
he looked like he.
Speaker 6: Was in like this coholian attire. It was. Once we
got down into the pit, so we met the pitmasters
and old Goblin nothing nothing to know. But this guy
in this Coolian clothing, he was saying something about like
Agony's throat and how it flows, but it's not water.
Speaker 2: Agony throat and it flows, but it's not water. Sounds like.
Speaker 6: No, I mean, okay, it sounds like drip first to you.
Speaker 9: But like I was thinking, what flows like water?
Speaker 6: It's our con uh. Magic?
Speaker 2: Well could be it is true that magic flows through
the earth through ley lines.
Speaker 16: Uh.
Speaker 2: And we already knew that those here were a bit
gunked up. That's the reason you're here.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I know.
Speaker 2: Yes, this Coholian fellow he says that says he has
some understanding of the strange flow of magic.
Speaker 6: I mean, that's what I took from it. He was
talking to like me, and that big lie fella Scarn.
Scarn didn't seem to know what he meant, so I
figured it was I don't know for me, and he
might somehow in his strange Coholian ways, like know what
I'm up to you and like look at me with
his Coolian eyes and be.
Speaker 2: Like, oh he knew why you were here.
Speaker 6: He dressed everyone like that. I mean he knew, he knew, Like, yes.
Speaker 2: But the rest of your team is remarkable. You are not.
Speaker 12: No, No, they're pretty remarkable from.
Speaker 2: An objective, So they are not. They're they're just doing
their thing.
Speaker 6: You failed to mention that all these people got their
freaking magic from like good sources. Lily have fucking met.
Speaker 12: Up with a prince probably and he gave her magic magic.
Speaker 6: Yeah, salt flowers deep in the pit, that's not normal.
Speaker 2: That's a pedal light. It's like a cleric, but with
fewer duties.
Speaker 6: Like I didn't know that. I thought it was weird. Okay,
that's not one of.
Speaker 2: Them your situation. It's perfectly organic.
Speaker 12: Okay, yes, I know I know that much.
Speaker 6: I'm just saying, did he.
Speaker 2: Say anything else about the flow of magic in this place?
Speaker 6: That's not that? I need to make it safer?
Speaker 2: And where can I find him?
Speaker 6: I don't know he was visiting like Lilia's family graves.
She even seemed concerned about it.
Speaker 2: I will find him and I will find out what
he knows.
Speaker 6: Please do I.
Speaker 9: I've been trying my best, but shit, ex I'm not
good at this whole line thing.
Speaker 6: Like I know, that's like the story of time. But
I'm absolutely shit at it. I'm trying to keep the
suspicions off of me, but that.
Speaker 9: What do I say to them, especially when a cash
shows up looking for me that.
Speaker 2: Talks well, I mean, as far as any of the
particularly sensitive information goes. The curse of acceptance is will
prevent you from speaking anything you shouldn't speak about to
begin with. So I'm not terribly worried about you talking
about anything you shouldn't be I know, but that's what
I'm saying.
Speaker 6: That's almost curious in itself. I start talking and explaining
what I'm doing, and then my tongue tries to shove
itself down my throat. That's a little bit, it's suspish.
Speaker 2: Well, that is the cost of being part of the college,
I know, and that is.
Speaker 9: A price I am willing to pay you it all is.
Speaker 2: Enough about all of this. You'll sort things out for
those people, or you won't. We'll deal with that later.
What I'm concerned about doing what we came here to do,
so I have something to report back in I know.
I know is that the end of what you know
is that all you found out when you don't know
suspicious spooky force. Absolutely not.
Speaker 6: No, I'm getting it to it.
Speaker 9: There were freaking necromancers down there.
Speaker 4: Well that's something, Yeah, that sure is.
Speaker 6: I thought, I don't know, when I've read about people
starting up reviving folks, I figured that that was just
something that happens elsewhere.
Speaker 2: I think a piece of information I found.
Speaker 6: Yeah, oh, they might be pretending to be undertow folk.
Speaker 2: Suspicious.
Speaker 6: I don't know if that helps your information.
Speaker 2: It's a lateral move, huh. There is a large estate,
previously unguarded one that has a strange feeling surrounding it.
It is in the what do they call it, the
underlock pit close to where you are, a large building.
As I've been looking around and trying to see what
people are up to, trying to see if there were
any strange individuals around, I noticed that there are some
strange robid men who are going going to and from
a place that I have come to know is called
the old mctroy State.
Speaker 6: I think my friends were talking about that too.
Speaker 2: Well, your friends found it out worse than me. I
found it out better.
Speaker 9: Well okay, yeah, sure, excellently.
Speaker 6: Yes, you did a good job. I'm not saying that,
I mean we're no. Those robes you're talking about, were
they like the ones that Desmond was like hay mistakingly putting.
Speaker 2: Not the undertoe.
Speaker 15: No.
Speaker 2: Ones that seem to have a vague religious meaning. But
I couldn't see any kind of religious symbols on them,
so I could not identify them.
Speaker 9: What color were they? Do you have a color?
Speaker 2: Great? Great? Greenish and black, greenish and black, greenish and black?
Speaker 6: Oh the symbol.
Speaker 9: Wouldn't No, you said you didn't see it. I'm not
gonna add Was it like a skull?
Speaker 6: Did it lack?
Speaker 2: Have you seen something?
Speaker 6: Did we see something? I think we did? Didn't we?
I swore.
Speaker 14: Like a bunch of ems from what you're thinking of?
Scarn Has.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Oh, I pull out my sketch. I pull out my
cartography kit, and I do like a little bit of
a pepper drawing of uh the emblems that we be?
What did you say they were?
Speaker 2: Aaron?
Speaker 9: You said it so sustinctly that scarn Has.
Speaker 6: What is that?
Speaker 14: I didn't describe them?
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, I know, I know. What
are they like?
Speaker 6: What's the do hickey?
Speaker 9: The object itself?
Speaker 6: Is it like a badge?
Speaker 13: I believe there are badges yeah, imagines is therein clasps
kind of thing?
Speaker 6: Could I could? I remember what these badges looked like?
And sketch went out for ox. Yeah, sure, I know
what you saw was like vague and stuff, but lack
any information helps like something like that.
Speaker 2: I recognize this good, Okay, it is something. I don't
know what it is, but I've seen it before where
where I don't remember?
Speaker 6: Oh then.
Speaker 9: Were you No, of course you were underground when you
saw it.
Speaker 2: No before this?
Speaker 6: Oh really?
Speaker 9: Yeah okay, and you can't remember either, all right.
Speaker 2: I'm not My memory is not terribly clear. I was
likely just never informed, right right, right? Okay, I mean
if I kind of know, it means Sorrel is bound
to definitely know.
Speaker 6: Oh my god, please ask him, I will, I I am.
I need his guidance, Like, hey, Sam, I am, I'm
struggle busting.
Speaker 2: Well. I don't want to ask him to take his
attention away for too long. I won't ask him to
buzz in, but I will send him. I'll send him
a description and ask him if he knows anything.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yes, please do and tell him that I'm like
doing like awesome, like I'm I'm Please don't please don't
say anything about like I can't even say it.
Speaker 5: So.
Speaker 2: It sounds to me like you made some progress. I
only have good things to relate. I won't tell him
that you're traveling with scruff grabbers.
Speaker 6: I didn't know scrubs were.
Speaker 12: Grabbing your scrub.
Speaker 2: Good for formal friends in the future, not to touch me.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they do that again. It might stretch out.
Speaker 4: Attire of this form.
Speaker 6: No go line like wait, what the fuck am I saying?
Being a cat should be awesome? Go line like some
sunlighter do something.
Speaker 2: I'm planning to now that we've made these discoveries. I
plan to lounge, take in the remaining sunlight for the day,
and once the moons are high and the magic is strong,
I shall contact sorrel and then at a later date
relate whatever he says back to you.
Speaker 6: All Right, I'm just saying I bought you that feather
pillow for a reason. If I don't come home and
see it all ripped up, I'm gonna know you're not
living your best line.
Speaker 2: I can, but I will rip up the pillow.
Speaker 6: You. Please don't shout that it's beloved God anything but
that his ears.
Speaker 2: Cow down right right?
Speaker 1: Oh my god?
Speaker 9: Okay, we need Maybe I'm not so bad to.
Speaker 2: Keep our cover when you leave here, I need you
to scream. I am not a cat as if you'd
lost your fences.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I can do I can do that for you,
all right.
Speaker 2: It's embarrative that people think you are the weird one.
Otherwise my ability to do recon will be compromised.
Speaker 6: I am doing a great job of doing that on
my own.
Speaker 2: Dude.
Speaker 6: Oh, I probably shouldn't call you, dude, ox ox Alia.
Here's a guy here named Billiam and I thought it
it was so bad.
Speaker 1: It was so bad.
Speaker 6: I thought it was a fake name. It's a fucking
real is bad? Is it all right?
Speaker 2: Fair?
Speaker 3: I've never met a billion I mean me fucking either,
and some kind of help the poor kid.
Speaker 6: Also like, I don't want to ask too much of Sora,
but could he look into like I don't know, like
magic illness I've never heard of, like big ones, but
like it.
Speaker 2: I'm only going to ask him to take time out
of answer the one question. I think I was busy
with a great many things. I know, I know that
more things than you could wrap your tiny mortal mind around.
Speaker 6: Oh, he tells me some of the stuff he's looking into.
Speaker 9: Comhoensible.
Speaker 6: I get it, all right, I'm gonna try to meet
up with my friends and patch up the big fucking
hole in the ship that this was. But you you
enjoy your sunlight, all right? Like wrap out of the window.
It's really nice. I usually have to close like most
of the blind.
Speaker 2: I need no advice in choosing where I lounge.
Speaker 6: Okay, well just look where the dentists and you fucking
find it.
Speaker 2: Find it on my own, be gone from here.
Speaker 9: You have a good I'm going No, I'm not a cat.
Speaker 2: I am not a cat.
Speaker 6: I am not I'm and as I'm walking by, I'm
like exclaiming this, and every time I'm like done with it,
I look dead inside and then I pick it back up,
and I'm like.
Speaker 2: The other two of you. As you guys walk away,
where are you like headed? What are you going to do? Ohgan?
Speaker 1: Do you have fun being a drunk blend of Tim
Curry and Matt Barry?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Why is he the worst? I didn't I didn't know
what to expect, but he's the worst. Bastard man, bastard cat.
Speaker 1: Excuse me just walking with Lilia?
Speaker 5: Yeah mmm mm hm, that was weird.
Speaker 6: Cat.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't trust it me neither. Yeah, it's really weird, but.
Speaker 5: I kind of trust Pepper more. So if she says
it's just fine, then we can't really do anything but
believe her. Yeah, especially if you got that defensive.
Speaker 1: It's true. You know, sometimes people need secrets. That's okay.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe if we become better friends and she trust
us a little bit more, maybe she'll want to share.
Speaker 1: But that's her call.
Speaker 5: Yeah, everything with time. Yeah, patience is a virtue, Young Laurie.
Speaker 1: Huh, Okay, I'll try to try to be more patient
about stuff.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe maybe maybe maybe cool off a little bit
on making moves on everything. You know too, you're still throwing.
You're still a throwing boy.
Speaker 2: You're right.
Speaker 1: They're just only pretty girls, so many.
Speaker 5: Pretty girls, and it's so hard to resist.
Speaker 9: But you have to hold on or you'll eat fast
and you'll be throwing away your huge.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 6: Play with four sticks.
Speaker 1: Six are so brad right, Like I I want to
try to be a grown up and I want to
be cool and I I want to be like my dad.
I want to be strong and brave and like all
ladies like me. I want him to think I'm cool.
I want to get to meet him.
Speaker 5: I mean, that's a fair goal. I can kind of
respect that. But at the same time, the faster you
make yourself want to grow up, the more you're gonna
regret it when you're an adult. You're gonna be like, man,
I had all this time to get into all this
trouble and not actually have to take responsibility for it.
And now I'm an adult and I have to do taxes.
Speaker 1: That does sound terrible.
Speaker 5: Mm. So the faster you grow up, the quicker you
have to do you texting.
Speaker 1: That does sound terrible.
Speaker 3: But also the the more I flirt with ladies, the
sooner i'll probably get my first kids.
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna keep shooting my shirt.
Speaker 3: Hold are you again, I'm said, I mean, you want
me to be however old you want me to be
a baby.
Speaker 5: Your nats haven't even dropped yet.
Speaker 1: I've been thinking about my dad's No. I'm so sorry.
I can't go back get it. Sorry, I'm sorry, that
was inappropriate.

She's like, I'm gonna get you know what, dinner's ready,
Let's go crazy.
Speaker 2: We're here oh, are you guys heading all the way
back to Lilia's place?
Speaker 1: I guess so, I guess.
Speaker 2: So, all right, you guys head all the way back
meeting her there? I don't, I don't. I don't know
that she does. Whoops, don't worry. She knows.
Speaker 1: They work at the Beyond and below and that's like
right next to my house. That's true.
Speaker 2: Hell yah, so Peper, just curious if you were to
head back and they are gone, where would you go?
Speaker 6: That is a excellent question.
Speaker 1: They just started talking and then walking. We're like to
get out of here, and we were like, sure, thing
didn't make any get a plan.
Speaker 5: As uh.
Speaker 6: Okay, okay, look, go to a couple places to say,
guys and look around.
Speaker 12: I probably would end up heading.
Speaker 6: Tow like genuinely to the oh nuts and butts? What
was that place's name?
Speaker 9: And beyond yeah, blow and beyond that one?
Speaker 2: That right, you'll eventually find your way over there. Then
in that case, Lily and Lawrence, what do you guys
continue to do? Uh hmmm?
Speaker 5: Just making their way honestly, yeah.
Speaker 10: Lia trying to explain to Lawrence that he's only ten
and he should like he needs to be a teenager.
Speaker 1: Before he starts wanting women.
Speaker 5: You're at an age where girls should still be gross.
Speaker 1: I like him though, they're really pretty. My mom told
me that my dad's kind of a ladies man. I
want to be cool like my dad. I want my
dad to think of cool.
Speaker 5: Even know where your dad is.
Speaker 1: Least I've heard he's in a place called like the
land Away. It's like really far away. Mm hmm, yeah, yeah,
my mom told me his name is Quintus Valor Built.
Speaker 5: Quintus Valor Built.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Den, he sounds super cool.
Speaker 5: I mean, Valor Bilts is a really cool sounding name.
And don't even have Valor right in it.
Speaker 2: Yeah right, h m hmm.
Speaker 1: I think he's a knight. I don't want to be
all strong and afraid of like him.
Speaker 5: He's a knight.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hm hmmm.
Speaker 5: Where would we find where I would to find a
knife by the name of Valor belt.
Speaker 1: Oh yes, he goes a little over like doing brave things.
But yeah, hmmm. Most I've heard the land Away?
Speaker 2: Mm hmmm.
Speaker 10: Has there been even like the chance that she's run
into people from quote unquote the land Away?
Speaker 2: The people might come here every and now and then
for like tours and purposes, the land Away is a
country to the north.
Speaker 25: Hmmm.
Speaker 5: We've had a couple of those. I mean, hm, hmm.
Did I ever see anyone I can ask them about
the land Away and if they've heard of any Valadilt family.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like this the symbol symbol and I'm important to
like the thing on my shoulder. I'm like, this is
like what's like on on like the flag and like
their armor and.
Speaker 6: Stuff like it's this ready, Okay, yeah, I gotta go

but it's the idea. Yeah, okay, Yeah, I haven't seen
any coat of arms of a lion. H I could
keep my eyes field and you know, keep you and
your mom in for him. Is your mom looking for him?
Speaker 1: Really appreciate that? I mean she's not super looking for him.
Speaker 3: Like I just kind of like asked about my dad
and she told me who he was, and I was like, well,
how come he's not here.
Speaker 1: That's not very brave. And she was like, well, you
had to go do night things and take care of
the land.
Speaker 3: Away, and like the Restaretia and like it's so I
was like, oh that makes sense, don't I can't be
selfish and want my dad to be here to take
care of me when he's got to, you know, take
care of everybody.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but don't Night have knights are able to have families,
and don't they reside in the same like territory is.

Speaker 2: My mom.
Speaker 5: Traveling Night That meant your mom.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's got to go all over the place to,
like you, help people.
Speaker 5: Wouldn't that just be a mercenary or a salse sword?
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. I'm just telling you what
what I was told him. Whatever writ in books about it.
Speaker 5: Does your mom have any trinkets of him? He's had
to have given her something if it had something going
on and something to remember and fawn over and think
of him a symbol of their everlasting love.
Speaker 1: Would she love you? I don't think you had anything?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean nothing he could pass, nothing to pass
down to his prodigy should anything happen to him.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't super know if he knows about me.
Oh so that's also why I want to be really cool.
Speaker 3: Like I want to show up and be like, hey,
what's up, and then like we could be friends. You'd
be like, I want you to be my friend. And
then I'll be like, hey, guess what great idea, a
great news bombshell, I'm actually your son. And then it'll
be like, oh, go way, I'm so happy you're my son.

But then you tried to come in. It was like, no,

have both names.
Speaker 25: I'm waiting.
Speaker 1: I'm waiting for this. Yes, I let me see.
Speaker 6: Just so stupid.
Speaker 3: I was thinking, thinking it's so funny.
Speaker 6: God, just the moment I can make it like Ooh,
he'll be another's william friend.
Speaker 1: There goes, give me the neighbor of this small child.
Speaker 12: There he goes, there he goes again.
Speaker 3: Sp That's why I wanted to be a bard, because
I thought that Quinn would love that I was a
bard like Miriam, because Miriam is his best friend, Marriam's barts.
I was likes his best friend, so you should like me.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I love little Lawrence. I want to bop them
on the head.
Speaker 1: Dude, I'm about it.
Speaker 3: That's that's the ender time I'm going for. Because there's
two bad right, One is beef and one is gravy.
Speaker 6: Yes, they're saying that Ox revins them of both combined.
Speaker 1: Oh okay. I thought they were like, what do you
mean you have a cat called beef gravy. I was like,
it's it's it's two cats.
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, and so is potato and ox. So I
don't fucking buy it. I rolled high on I rolled
high on that, but I didn't see. I didn't see
if Logan rolled behind the table.
Speaker 1: I don't know that's fair.
Speaker 9: I'm gonna need to interrogate this potato cat.
Speaker 3: You don't know about this potato cat arcane All the
stuff that I know about Quinn, Like I lur know
about Quinn is stuff that I read about him. I
doubt there's anything about Mariam in books, so I don't
think I know about Maria.
Speaker 9: It's just a funny aha, Yeah it is me.
Speaker 1: CARRY wanted to be a bar to be like.
Speaker 2: I hope he thinks I'm cool like.
Speaker 5: That.
Speaker 6: That's why I may have joking like Pepper wouldn't know
the significance of this be like, oh, yeah, doesn't a
nut need a bard? You know, most most Knights do
travel with bards because that's where their stories come from.
Speaker 13: Yeah, exactly, the bard hanging out with the hunters that
you know, someone in another country was being told about
them to the point they were idolized to a degree.
Speaker 25: Really right this?
Speaker 1: Yeah right, Like what the fuck? What do you mean?
Speaker 6: No, I need to meet this child immediately. They have
such a positive outlook on me. I need to get
showered by their compliments. I think that was pil Mariam.
Speaker 1: Why is Aaron babysitting all the valet builds? Yep, roller
got a babysit all the vallet belts.
Speaker 2: You Aaron.
Speaker 3: Turns out this stuff, Laurence Thread is just Quintus fan
fig written by his mom.
Speaker 6: I think you would notice if the pages are shoved
into a book.
Speaker 2: It's mean.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I actually like studied, Like fucking where is it
I read up about?
Speaker 9: Oh it's right by me the college, right yeah, the college.
Speaker 2: The college are drifting.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, in downtown right there?
Speaker 1: Written by my mom.
Speaker 2: Who else? Is everybody good to jump back in?
Speaker 6: Break is here?
Speaker 13: Right in?
Speaker 2: My phone is also ready.
Speaker 6: It seems I made it do that. You said my name,
and I forced it to ring.
Speaker 14: I believe you.
Speaker 6: I'm so magical and talented.
Speaker 2: I guess the two people that really mattered immediately Aaron
and Justice.
Speaker 3: All right, there we go, alrighty, let's jumpatient Shenanigans.
Speaker 2: Let's jump right back in hell? How you've changing the screen?
Speaker 4: All right?
Speaker 2: You two, So you two little guys, after you have
an existential crisis regarding exactly where you are. Scarn, you
guys are heading towards the underlocked pit to go towards
the uplifting Yeah, yes, okay, as you as.
Speaker 13: We passed by the Temple of Four, there's a small
brown cat that looks nothing like the other cat, and
he's like, oh I potato Wow, huh, never.
Speaker 25: Mind fucking.
Speaker 2: Okay. So as you guys had towards it, the how
as you approach, you take note of two things. You
you head in towards the underloft pit, you head up
the path, and you head towards one of the higher
plateaus that are within it, one of the ones that
overlooks most of the large crevice that makes up most
of this pit. H You see two places immediately as
you enter. One of them is the House of Uplifting,
a place you guys would be relatively familiar with. It's
a pretty large it's like a small school effectively, this building,
except it has certain religious symbols tied to it. In particular,
I'm gonna see them find a little little image here,
m hmm. In particular, it's got this emblem more crudely displayed.
I don't even know where i'd begin if I started
trying to describe this what looks to be an ornate
silver mirror, but instead of a mirror, it's split into
two different picnic table blankets. In the center. On one
side there's a gold coin, and on the other there
is there are two different nuts, and there's some wheat
and a ribbon tied to the outside of it. That's
what this religious symbol looks like. Right, Ope, I've accurately
described that.
Speaker 25: I don't know what.
Speaker 2: Is the symbol of foul cough body of the masses.
Pretty sure when I commissioned that image, I think I
described something a bit different, and I'm pretty sure that
has me. It was like I've taken some creative liberties,
and I was like, you sure did, and it looks great.
Speaker 13: What's neat is that if you make the window around
the symbol smaller, the ribbon and the wheat is slightly
escape its bounds to.
Speaker 14: Spooky.
Speaker 2: The other thing that you see is you, guys, see
the large, single floored but relatively impressive looking estate, the
old victraw state off beyond it, a place that's as
it's been brought up so much to you now draws
your attention. A place where there's several windows, many of
which are completely boarded up from the from the outside,
and the central large set of double doors also remain
firmly in place, firmly law. It is old, a bit weathered,
but evidently still in use. As you approach the House
of Uplifting, you.
Speaker 18: What what what?
Speaker 2: What is your approach? What are we doing.
Speaker 15: I don't think I should be the first one to,
you know, go straight up to the you know, the door.
I might intimidate the kids. I might just stand back
a little bit. You're you're the neighbor, you know the kids.
I think it might be best for you, Desmond.
Speaker 13: Yeah, sure, I mean there's tons of kids, and I
mean there's all sorts of people here. Basically, anyone's welcome.
Speaker 4: Understandable, and I'll see you know more about this side
of the town.
Speaker 13: And are the main doors open or are they closed
for the day?
Speaker 2: At this point they would be open.
Speaker 14: M stroll right on in stroll.
Speaker 2: The entrance to this place is a fairly large, fairly
large foyer of sorts. As you enter into it, it
feels kind of like a large waiting room. Most of
the inside of this place, at least at the front,
seems pretty open concept. You see that in front of
you there is a what looks to be a desk,
behind which you see there is a human man standing
relatively middle aged, unassuming looking human man who is turning
the pages of a book and appears to be writing
something down. And either side of this desk there are
these massive like ten foot wide archways that lead further
into the building as you approach. As your footsteps creak
along the wooden floor of this location, the individual raises
up his view towards you, then back down. He writes
something quickly, then closes the book, folds his hands over it,
and looks at you.
Speaker 13: May I help you, Hi, I'm just a local from
over in the hillbind pit. I wanted to check on
the Stanbird kids, see what they were doing.
Speaker 2: The Stanberg kids, let's see, yes, they would have come
in here fairly recently. May I ask why you wish
to speak with them.
Speaker 13: I'm a neighbor and I only recently found out about
their trouble, So I just want to make sure they're
doing all right, and if they needed anything, I'd like
to just extend that to them personally.
Speaker 2: Well, if you wish to talk to any of them,
I suppose I'm going to have to run it by
Masternalium just to make sure that that's all toward and okay.
But if you'll just give me a minute, I'd be
happy to fetch them.
Speaker 13: Thank you so much.
Speaker 2: They head off into the back, leaving you guys alone
in the front. This place is pretty minimalistic. You get
the sense they're not terribly worried about people stealing from it.
You hear the distant sound of some movement, kind of
the same level of noise you'd expect to hear if
you like walked into a school, well classes in session,
Like not the classes, but just the distant sound of
some activity going on inside. And I need to grab
a thing thing grab as you guys weighed about five
ten minutes and unless you occupy yourself with anything. Eventually
a woman comes out, a rather elderly looking gnome who
you take to be Masternallium. She has this wispy white hair.
She's wearing robes that are the same sort of checkered
green and yellow pattern as the religious symbol I showed before.
She comes out using a roughly hewn wooden cane, well
more of a more of a stick. It's more like
Morgot's heck and cane from Eldon Ring than it is
an actual cane. As they come out, one hand behind
their back, owl harnish, emboldened by the flame of adoption.
Now they come out, Hello ver, good to see you,
young men. I understand that you wish to speak to
two of the children that are currently staying here.
Speaker 14: That's correct.
Speaker 2: May I be so hopeful as to ask that you
well may be looking to adopt.
Speaker 14: Unfortunately, not right now. My job wouldn't permit that.
Speaker 2: Darn. I suppose it's just as well. We actually can't
offer up these particular children for adoption. We believe their
family may yet come back. Young Martha and Rodney. I
believe they've only been here a short time. If you're
not here to adopt, you explained it to my friend.
But may I ask myself, what is the nature of
your visit to the young stan Berts.
Speaker 13: I live a few doors down, and I've recently learned
about the difficulties that two are facing. It's one to
extend any hospitality I possibly could if they needed anything,
I can at least give them a hand, even if
I can't properly provide for the two boys.
Speaker 2: Wonderful, wonderful. That would bring a nice moment of levity,
certainly to the facility. They're currently in class with the
other handful of children than we have here. If you
would follow me, I can pull them out for a moment.
And she turns and begins very slowly walking back into
the facility. She eventually reaches a door. Again, not a
lot of doors here. It's very opens. The most of
the rooms that you find just have arches that open
up between them. She gets to the side you hear
the talking. Another Gnomish man looks to be a little
old balding, is teaching a handful of camping for eight children.
As she walks in, she taps on the side of
the archway with her cane briefly tells them that she
needs to borrow the standard children. Two children get up.
They look like they're roughly You would guess that the
two of them are no more than maybe seven and eleven.
And I shouldn't have said in that order, because it
makes it sound like a joke. Eleven and seven. As
these two children, these two brown blondish, brown haired kids,
both walk out. One of them takes the hand of
the other as they walk out, and they look a
bit timid. They look they look like they don't know
what to do with themselves, in that way that young
children often do around adults, unable to make eye contact.
They come out. You are walked a little bit away
from the door as to not interrupt what's happening, and
the master takes a step back, heads down the hallway,
doesn't go out of sight, but introduces you and allows
you to have your time with the kids, to which
they're like, I uh, the older one, I'm my name,
my name is Marth, and uh uh did we do
did we do something?
Speaker 13: Not at all? No, Hi, you probably seen me around.
I'm just from a few doors down. I know you
guys have been having a bit of a rough go
at it, so we just want to make sure you're
doing okay. And if the two of you needed anything,
you could maybe get it for you and bring it over.
Speaker 2: M hm.
Speaker 13: You know, you guys deserve a bit of a treat
if you're dealing with all this.
Speaker 2: The building already went and fetched clothes and stuff from
our house, and there's a lot here. Has let me
see them like bite their bottom lip briefly, as if contemplating,
and they look up at you. There hasn't been any
news about our dad coming back esther. He disappeared a
while ago, and I don't think he didn't tell anyone
really where it was going. He mentioned to us that
he was going to take care of some stuff about
mom's grave, and then spent a lot of time in
his study, and then he took off one night and
we haven't seen him. Do you maybe is he maybe
talk to you?
Speaker 14: I can't.
Speaker 13: I can't say for sure, but we've been looking into
where your father's been and he might have stumbled onto
something that might help the entire pit. I'm hoping for
as positive and outcome as possible.
Speaker 2: Okay, I don't I don't think there's anything. I think.
I think, Rodney, do you need anything? Twhich the younger kid,
who is avoiding making eye contact at all, just shakes
their head very briefly and very quickly as they look
down at the ground. I think that we're this place
is providing you.
Speaker 14: Got everything you need? Is there anything you know that
you might want? Something extra?
Speaker 13: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Our mom made us. The blankets here and stuff are
really nice. But our mom made us blankets that we've
had for a long time, and they didn't go grab
those for us. It'd be nice to have those.
Speaker 14: Yeah, I'll make that happen.
Speaker 4: Thank you.
Speaker 14: Mhm, what what was.
Speaker 2: I've seen you? But what was your name? And you
and you I don't recognize you, sir.
Speaker 4: I'm Scarren. Nice to meet you, kid, Nice, nice to
meet you. Too.
Speaker 2: You're so tall.
Speaker 4: Definitely, maybe you can get this tall.
Speaker 2: They smile briefly, and then it dissolves pretty quickly.
Speaker 4: Oh, they deprived.
Speaker 13: What do you guys get back to study. I'll get
those blankets down to you before tonight.
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you for coming. If you guys, if then
anyone in the neighborhood finds out about our dad, could
you'd come and tell us, even if it's anything, even
if it's just that he's going to still be gone
for a while, I'll.
Speaker 13: Be sure to tell you as soon as as soon
as we get the all clear and we know what's
going on.
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you so much personally myself, thank you, Desmond.
And they they're collected by They are collected by the
Master Nalium, who then sees you guys out and she
as you're walking out, she's like they have been wonderful children.
It's always very hard for the transition. In most cases
when people come here, we have some firm understanding they've
lost their parents, or their parents might have disappeared or
well left, but we usually know what's going on with them.
We we haven't given up hope that they're merely staying
here until their parents return until.
Speaker 13: Now that we have you on your own, I'll be
coming back tonight with some of their blankets and things
that they like extra.
Speaker 14: I think they're gonna have a hard talk this evening.
Speaker 13: It hasn't been officially reported yet, but I don't think
their father's coming back.
Speaker 2: And you intend to tell them that this evening?
Speaker 13: Yeah, if I could, I'd like to tell them myself.
Speaker 6: M M.
Speaker 2: If she looks back down towards the hall that you
guys came from, has has there been a body found?
Speaker 13: Yeah?
Speaker 14: I shot myself.
Speaker 2: Yes, Oh dear, I suppose there's never going to be
a good time.
Speaker 14: Yes, I figured I wouldn't ruin their studies or their day.
Speaker 2: We'll wait for you, make sure that when you bring
that back this evening.
Speaker 14: You said, what's five? Now, I'll try and be back before.
Speaker 13: Nine or ten.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 2: We will await your return, and we will make sure
that we are ready and on staff if they need
any additional care or support. In me aftermath, Oh goodness.
And we were so hoping that he had merely wandered
off or gotten lost in the caves.
Speaker 13: I'm not at liberty to talk about it, but he
has provided some critical information with an ongoing issue in
the pits, and if it wasn't for their dead then
we might be able to dead end.
Speaker 2: You're a part of the undertow I take it.
Speaker 13: I am, yes, off duty right now, but yeah, kind
of stays with you no matter what you're doing.
Speaker 2: Indeed, I won't take up any of your time. I
want to see you later tonight. I suppose sorry to
bring bad news at the House of Uplifting. We all
started bad news. It's where we go afterwards that matters.
Speaker 14: Yeah, I suppose that's true.
Speaker 13: Shall we shine?
Speaker 4: Let's get it going, all right?
Speaker 2: Do you guys head out? And I'd like one of you,
In fact, i'd like it to be justice to roll
me a D one hundred.
Speaker 30: Oh, jaga, yaga, brot me that D one hundred.
Speaker 4: They're not just do it?
Speaker 2: You did not. Oh you got this.
Speaker 1: I believe in you.
Speaker 4: Why is it not rolling?
Speaker 13: I don't know.
Speaker 4: Can you you can hear us? Yeah, I can hear you. Okay,
perfectly fine.
Speaker 2: Are you rolling it into the chat?
Speaker 14: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Like are you dropping it on the chat?
Speaker 18: Oh?
Speaker 2: There there is there is Oh I.
Speaker 4: Think it just rolled out. I think it just rolled out.
Speaker 1: Ah, yeah, it's done. That to me before.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, so I got a thirty seven.
Speaker 2: Though, as you guys leave and begin heading away, you
hear the a creek that only in old door could produce,
that only an old haunted mansion scooby doo door could produce.
Exactly you hear it. I was so tempted to grab
my soundboard and just for fun, be like you had
to do the heavy door. You hear, you don't, I can.
Did you hear the creaking of a door echoing out
through the caves and then closing, and the sound of
a latch, And before you can tell when you're looking
at you turn and you hear that it definitely came
from the direction of the old mctross old god damn mctra.
I literally was looking at it.
Speaker 1: Okay, McDonald's.
Speaker 2: We all know Old mctronald's had a towel your honor.
Speaker 6: Your honor is dyslexic.
Speaker 2: With a moot mood here and the moot mood there.
That's what they say in Japan. They what was that
I was saying? The other day? Er and I made
a joke while we were walking. I think it was
with you where I was like something went by us
and I was like, oh, it's a fucking it's a jeep.
They go one one in Japan. Here they go broom room,
but in Japan they go one one. Goddamn as you
know something like that.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I didn't problem.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't want to do that. Okay, you dragged
that from a while ago.
Speaker 13: Yeah.
Speaker 4: No, I just like clicked back into the screen and
it just grabbed and it was like, you want this, right.
Speaker 2: I'd say by this point, it's probably want to you
want to look at Lily, right, we'll probably about six
thirty for you guys by now.
Speaker 15: Oh uh yeah, I'm not gonna nod. I'm not gonna
ignore that. Uh hey, Desmond, you did you hear that
door close? It's the estate, right.
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean it's likely you want to place close enough.
Speaker 4: I I know you said that you're off duty.
Speaker 1: I mean, what if we you know, just checking it out.
Speaker 2: It'll be cool.
Speaker 14: Define checking it out.
Speaker 15: Okay, we we got to figure out what's going on
over here. At least maybe we'll hear something at the doors.
Speaker 25: I don't know.
Speaker 13: No, just a walk around, Yeah, let's give it a
walk around.
Speaker 4: No one can be mad at a couple of guys
just loitering. I mean they can you can.
Speaker 13: I do that all the time. But we can give
it a walk around. That's fine, that's not it's not
something that's prohibited by my lack of being on duty.
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go for it.
Speaker 4: Alrighty.
Speaker 2: I'd like you guys to roll me investigation checks and
perception checks both.
Speaker 14: Both and and.
Speaker 4: Oh justice, I love it. I'm not even looking at
him until I yep.
Speaker 14: The investigation was a six.
Speaker 13: To a five.
Speaker 4: Perception was a fifteen to seventeen.
Speaker 3: Okay, can I heal it with your perception and together?
Speaker 14: Fourteen on investigation?
Speaker 1: Together? Y'all are competent.
Speaker 2: Let's go together. You did one good investigation. Yeah, as
you guys scope around the area, as you walk around
the perimeter of it, the main things that you notice
is again no windows are open. Uh. You do notice
as you're walking around it that a section kind of
in the front right hand side of the estate there
is a terrible smell, a pungent rotting vegetables, rotting fruit
smell that escapes it when you're walking too close by
a window too. You can't quite tell what it was,
but specifically there something inside is letting off a horrible odor.
You also, as you pass by scarn from that particular
part of the building, you hear this almost this slimy
like and wood moving as you pass by, but it's
muffled and difficult for you to get any real sense
of texture from whatever it is as you pass by
the back. As you pass by the back, you discover
that there is another entrance in the back of the
right wing of this building. This building is built in
such a way where it's like one central area where
the main door is, and then it fans out into
these two large wings and has some central structure on
the middle of it, but since you're only seeing the
walls outside, it's hard to tell. It's like it's like
part of it has like a sealed gazebo like section
in the middle, but you can't see inside. As you
move around it, you find that the right wing has
another entrance in the back, which is also boarded up.
It looks older, it looks unused, and as you can
I need to walk around you find it just more
sealed windows and as you go by the left wing.
As you move around, you once again hear aside coming
a sound coming from the inside. You hear this low
rumbling like coming from the other side of one of
the uh, one of the walls. And finally, as you
pass background to the front scarn, you hear muffled voices speaking.
Speaker 6: You.
Speaker 2: You've remained very still for a moment, and you hear
muffled voices. And I'd like you to roll me another perception,
check to see if you can make out what they're saying. Okay, perception,
another perception.
Speaker 13: I believe in you. I don't believe in you. It
was a two two or four. No, I was so
close to an.
Speaker 2: I saw all you can make out. You hear two
voices speaking to one another, and footsteps as they seem
to move further in So from the other side of
like a boarded up window. As you get up close
to it to try to hear from it, the only
thing you catch is I suppose he's gonna have to
contact him tonight. Then is and then nothing?
Speaker 14: M all right?
Speaker 13: I want to know more.
Speaker 4: Yep ah, I must you do this to me?
Speaker 13: All right?
Speaker 2: Why must that be? Mister?
Speaker 13: Al right?
Speaker 4: Okay, so it's gonna have to contact him tonight. What
does that mean?
Speaker 15: I can't hear what they're actually saying in there, I
hear two guys in there. Somebody said something about having
to contact him tonight, and I don't know who him is.
I can't really play the I can't really play the
pronown game here.
Speaker 4: I don't know. I'm not hearing too much, but this
is definitely not a normal guy's estate.
Speaker 13: Old mctraws never I don't think they were ever normal.
Speaker 2: History check either of you if you want to know,
if you know anything about old Man mctraw, can I
tell you what it wasn't.
Speaker 14: That he had a farm.
Speaker 13: I got a seven people talked about them. I guess
I'll roll it history.
Speaker 2: Okay, So old man mctrawe was sorry, was back in
the day actually one of the co founders of the
Below and Beyond Agency. He was a well known explorer
who settled here, who became enamored with what laid below.
In particular, he thought that there was a bunch of
pre Simonian ruins, so just ancient old world ruins below
these caves, and he spent a lot of his later life,
which I guess he's still technically in searching and trying
to gather information on them. He used to be an
accomplished hunter, very well known for taking trophies from creatures
that he killed down in the caves. But in his
old age, when he became too enfeebled to go down
and explore, he settled in and became really big on
mapping and journaling and writing out stories about the things
that he claims to have seen, which got slowly more
and more and more absurd, to the point where people
stopped listening because most people started assuming he was making
things up and around then he became a shut in.
Speaker 4: Okay, understood, that is explained.
Speaker 13: Uh, okay, We're like, oh, slow down, mictros, throw him
out into the snow.
Speaker 2: He's out there raving.
Speaker 11: Love.
Speaker 1: That joke is so much, dude. That's all I think
is when Maurice shows up.
Speaker 2: As at some point I'll name cares bat whose name
is not used as a joke reference to a meme.
None of them are intended, all of them are happening. Continue.
Speaker 13: I hate that.
Speaker 4: In my notes, I just wrote down, settled in the
pits became a map otaku.
Speaker 1: Nice hell yeah, perfect notes.
Speaker 13: If they're talking about meeting people or messaging people, stands
to reason that they probably have to leave.
Speaker 6: To do it.
Speaker 15: That would be true. We did just hear some folks
go in. They have to get out at some point.
I don't want to stay waiting around here for that long.
Speaker 13: Though quite a steakout, granted I got a bound take well,
it depends the said tonight, and that could be anywhere
from now till tomorrow morning, So that is very true.
Speaker 14: I should really go home.
Speaker 4: I did tell my folks I said i'd be there,
but like this seems to be important.
Speaker 13: I can keep an eye on it. I'm going to
be back here later.
Speaker 15: I think that might be the best. I can steak
out until you get those blankets or the kids, and
then we can swap off.
Speaker 13: Sounds good to me. I'll be about hour and a half,
maybe a little longer. Kids might need some assurance. Granted
I don't know if they want it for me, but
that might take a second.
Speaker 4: I can wait that long.
Speaker 13: I guess.
Speaker 4: I can just stake this out, just to wait until
people show up. But I don't want to lose a
lead like this.
Speaker 14: Keep out of sight.
Speaker 4: I always do. Fades into the bushes.
Speaker 2: Holy shit, I've mastered the art of staying so perfectly still.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you'll never find me, goodbye.
Speaker 2: I can still see you damn okay uh other side
other people, you guys collectively are medium team medium team medium.
You guys are collectively at.
Speaker 6: The residents hell yah hm, I hope they're not doing
anything too serious.

Speaker 2: I just I just don't know if it's also going
to be on the recording, which is really all I'm
concerned about, like not the twitch. Yeah, well, we're gonna
have to go back and see. Tell you what, I'm
going to take a note here real quick about when
this last one happens, I can quickly reference it later.
Speaker 15: I will say it wasn't it only was happening at
least when I heard it, or like when I went
back to the clip part of it, it was like
when I was just screaming right, randomness, it wasn't content.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's content, but it's not important content. What content?
Speaker 2: But yeah, there you go.
Speaker 4: It's definitely content. Yeah, but trust me, I can make

Speaker 10: Like family stuff so like so like maybe like fancy
rocks found in the pits, souvenirs, certifications from the beyond
and below.
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just naming things off the top.
Speaker 6: Of my head, and I gotta yeah, so you doing,
You're doing absolutely great.
Speaker 2: If it looks if it looks at all to me,
like it's like if if from the outside it ever
looks like I have a lot of ship like this planned.
Sometimes it's like, uh, kind of it.
Speaker 10: Kind of like it kind of gives it kind of
gives like fantasy ish like hobble hut one hundred acre
wood kind of feel.
Speaker 6: There is any stuff?
Speaker 9: Is there any stuff with like little Lilia or young Lilia?
Speaker 2: There is one mind, there wouldn't be many portraits. Portraits
aren't the thing that like you get done yearly. That's
like a especially for like a lower like lower middle
class families in this age, there's like we have one
family portrait situation.
Speaker 6: You know, Yeah, the portraits one of the onions.
Speaker 10: Yeah, there's so there's like there's like a portrait with
like her parents and the oldest son, then a portrait
of like her with her brother, and then a portrait.
Speaker 1: With all of them.
Speaker 5: Okay to just the family kept getting Yet we weren't
expecting three to come out of her. We thought it
was gonna be one big one.
Speaker 9: Yeah, that's that's wonderful.
Speaker 2: As you guys, as you guys talked about this, you
see three small bunny humanoid bunny individuals of all the
same general size, but slightly different colorations, basically a pink
and a pinkish one and a yellowish one and a
bluish one. Because we're doing looney tunes, we run out
and like chasing each other, run out into the halls
and again like just doing as kids do. Uh, and
then into another room off in the background. Hi, go.
Speaker 1: What are they doing?
Speaker 5: Probably just playing around.
Speaker 6: Is fun.
Speaker 5: They're too young for you.
Speaker 6: Want to.
Speaker 1: Everybody's too old for me to.
Speaker 2: Hang out out.
Speaker 12: Hey if you I mean, I mean actually mm hmm, no.
Speaker 1: What are you thinking?
Speaker 5: No, you can't be you can't you can't be too
dashing and serenade my three little sisters.
Speaker 1: How old are they?
Speaker 2: I don't like this question. I don't like the context
of this conversation.
Speaker 1: Lily, Lily, please let's.
Speaker 2: Restart the campaign. I think we need to age up
Lawrence for a multitude of reasons. I think we need
to get ahead of some things.
Speaker 1: We're just gonna drop dowla mud. This was the youngest logan.
Will let me be.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna say.
Speaker 10: I'm gonna say that the freaking the freaking girls are
like seven or eight.
Speaker 2: Okay, your note here, let's make a little adjustment. We
just that just that they're young.
Speaker 1: I couldn't remember. I don't think I ever gave a number.
Speaker 6: It's just they're still young to be.
Speaker 1: They're young enough to still be rambunctious kids. Because I
didn't think we'd actually have a child in the party.
Speaker 6: Yeah, for God's sake, Laurie, you don't have to kiss
everything that moves or flirt with it.
Speaker 2: You just not with it. How do you know what's
gonna girl?
Speaker 1: Be friends with them?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 6: I think that that's a that is a manifucent thing.
Speaker 3: I think it would be great for here hitting on everybody,
and I should try to be a kid.
Speaker 1: And then there's kids around me. You know, you don't
want me to go hang out with them.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I really want to practice being a lady man. I
guess three girl, three triplets are one way to do it.
But they are my sisters, so I'll kill you if
you hurt them.
Speaker 12: Oh yeah, he's not even the same anything.
Speaker 1: He just won't anybody.
Speaker 6: I know. He can be a little bit of what you.
Speaker 5: Can be their friend, Laurie, it's fine.
Speaker 6: Yeah, this is what's causing the problem.
Speaker 5: For Here's here's what here's what happen. Here's what can happen, Laurie, Laurie,
You guys, can you guys? Can you can all grow
up together being the best of friends, filling trials and tribulations.
Maybe you'll build a treehouse altogether. The overgrowth is over there, and.
Speaker 9: Then I don't think we need a picture.
Speaker 6: Rat Now a front door.
Speaker 2: Open, beautiful front door opens and walks the familiar face
of cap is you guys here? I'm home?
Speaker 3: Everyone change Ah.
Speaker 2: You've all decided to come over here for the evening.
Oh but some of you seem to have taken off.
Uh is are scarn and Desmond. Not it's odd to
see young Lawrence and not to see Desmond. I suppose,
is what I'm not saying, that it's odd that you're
just with Scarn not where Iscarn and Desmond?
Speaker 5: I mean they went to do grown up boys stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, ass has grown up boys are ought to do?
Speaker 16: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I had a particular ladies.
Speaker 2: I see you've done a fine job of that. I'm certain.
Are you all staying for dinner?
Speaker 6: Is that okay?
Speaker 2: Absolutely it is.
Speaker 1: We don't want to impose. We're making sure we're not imposing.
Speaker 2: You don't don't quite have enough chairs to go around
for everybody. But if if you don't mind, uh, I
can cris.
Speaker 1: Cross apples are about him?
Speaker 2: I can.
Speaker 6: I'll figure some note.
Speaker 5: I mean, if we can. If we get Garn, if
we get Scarne over here, the girls can climb on him.
They love doing that.
Speaker 2: Oh, I am sorry. I was a bit later coming
home that I meant to. There was some extra roadblocks
associated with passing on all the information that you all
gave me. It took me a little bit of extra time.
I had to speak directly to Commander Dendron, and I
I haven't had to do that in a while and
he's a Oh he's a well meaning man, but a
bit intimidating.
Speaker 25: Mm hm hm.
Speaker 2: I suppose you'd have to be when you're the commander
of the undertow. I suppose you'd have to be that
sort of individual.
Speaker 1: Are you okay?
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm fine, absolutely. I'm just he's very tall.
Speaker 1: That's fair.
Speaker 5: I mean, as long as we're still doing our jobs. Though,
I don't see why he would be.
Speaker 2: Oh well, I wasn't frightened or worried. I just don't
like bringing the man bad news. I prefer to bring
people cheerful news.
Speaker 5: That's nice, that's fair.
Speaker 1: Other than that, how was your day been, sir?
Speaker 2: It's mostly been there, oh okay, and paperwork. How about
all of you? Have you been enjoying your day since returning?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've been a nice first day off.
Speaker 6: It's been excellent.
Speaker 1: Talking with your daughter. She's usually nice.
Speaker 2: Ge Pepper, have you found time to explore and get
to know more of our lovely town? Yeah?
Speaker 6: I got to wander all around it and you know,
feel the earth under my shoe, and mate, the people
I met I met, Maurice, your shoega and your clothing,
your clothing.
Speaker 2: Filla, Maurice, Maurice, Maurice.
Speaker 6: He does like the running thread, Oh.
Speaker 2: The following dreads man. Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes, I've
only ever been there a couple of times.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was in here the other night, raven about
a store.
Speaker 2: I don't remember that thing that you've made up, but
I I've only ever been there once, and it was
to get a tunic taken in for my wedding quite
a long time ago. He did a fine job.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was even a portrait raz here of it.
Speaker 2: Oh, look, single portrait and there there it is. Yeah.
Speaker 5: I mean, if you're gonna you're gonna go all out
in the wedding, at least get one portrait.
Speaker 1: It's true special day.
Speaker 2: I spent a lot of my savings whenever we moved
in here. I had intended only to be here for
some time. I used to be a bit of an
adventurer actually, and I was only here doing some work
as I was on the go. And then I was
convinced to stay by the best thing that's ever happened.
Speaker 5: To me, your ball and chain. He was quite a
ladies man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I supply, I suppose I did have a certain
magnetism to me, But I spent much of the money
I'd built up purchasing this home close to work as well,
and when it came time for our wedding, I did
spend quite a bit of perhaps maybe a bit too
much of our well.
Speaker 6: I mean, I'll tell you what, this pid isn't too bad.
I mean, if you just drop rock somewhere, you know,
make a place for yourself to say, in't a bad place.
Speaker 2: I don't regret it, and I have not regretted it
one day.
Speaker 13: Of my life.
Speaker 1: That's really sweet.
Speaker 6: That's just that is just beautiful.
Speaker 2: That said, Lilia, you said that you had some other
matter that you wanted to talk to me about.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but with every with other things going on, it
kind of slip my mind a little bit. But probably
sometime after dinner. That way, the little ones don't hear
it out because I don't want to startle them.
Speaker 2: Certainly, certainly, whenever Oh longer takes the more anticipation is
building him as excited as I am afraid.
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't think it's anything to be afraid of.
But are are you familiar with the that one weird,
really pretty guy from the Temple of CHERI gosh, Cash, Oh.
Speaker 6: That's who that's the hot priest, right, Sorry, I just
I just connected those two things.
Speaker 2: Oh are you are you? Are you referring you're talking about.
Speaker 5: So mm hmm, yeah, yeah, mister Saloon. I saw him
down there.
Speaker 2: He was he was by.
Speaker 1: Here's a little.
Speaker 5: I don't see why I wouldn't be Okay, you just
buy the family grave, asking me if I knew what
was there.
Speaker 2: It's just as far as I knew, you hadn't seen
him since since the dive, and I was worried that it.
If it did not enlist, if it did not bring
up any bad memories for you, then then that that's good.
Speaker 6: I was just worried at all.
Speaker 5: Why would it.
Speaker 2: I suppose you don't remember very well. No, the dive,
the dive that you said that you my last dive
ten years ago, the one that you came to have
met your prints on who.
Speaker 6: Do?
Speaker 2: I always imagined that you forgot. But that dive was
that we were hired by so Un to try to
go into the caves below so I and you got
lost and took a great deal time to find you,
and soon was involved in finding you. And it was
that event that that mishap that caused us to turn
around and give it was it was. It was a
worrying time for everyone, And I was just worried that
if you encountered him in the caves again that maybe
it would bring up memories that you maybe what as
pleasant as they could have been, you might.
Speaker 6: Need to worry more about her submit saloon making her
sol woon so nice?
Speaker 5: Okay, so okay, So I believe soon okay.
Speaker 12: So stoon Okay.
Speaker 5: I guess he was kind of familiar, and you know,
maybe for a moment I might have completely forgot of
his existence and thought he was my friends. But the
point being is that he was by the graves, and
he was asking me a bunch of questions about them,
like there's something aside there besides Grandmamma and Papa.
Speaker 13: What do you mean?
Speaker 16: Like?
Speaker 5: What do he say?
Speaker 1: What did he say?
Speaker 5: He was like, do you really not know what's down here?
Speaker 6: Lilia?
Speaker 5: Like have they not told you? Like I'm supposed to know? Yeah,
we're having this conversation now.
Speaker 2: On the only graves? Did he I'm a bit confused.
The only graves that I know of that are related
to us are those of your grandparents on your mother's side. Again, Yeah,
I was my grandparents are buried quite in a very
different place. There was one more near ours.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, and it's blank. I think I'm remembering if
it was it was blank.
Speaker 1: I think it was. Yeah, yeah, that's foot voting.
Speaker 5: And he kept asking me, like I should know what's there.
Speaker 2: It didn't have a thread on it like your next.
Speaker 1: No, I don't think, but you would definitely remember that, sir.
Speaker 5: But he said something along the lines. And the DM
can totally correct me if I'm wrong, But like, how
do you not, like you know, you don't know. That's
so odd that you don't know. They haven't told you,
Like I'm being kept out of the loop of something
that apparently I should be in the loop of. But
I didn't even know there was a loop in the
first place.
Speaker 2: I'm not familiar with another grave down there, and there's
certainly no one that would go in a grave for
our family. And the DM is not correcting you because
you're correct.
Speaker 6: Okay, good, thank god, I fucking remember. Hell yeah, family
that would be buried would be from her mother's set,
is what you're getting it.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's not the grandparents that are down there. Are
her grandparents on her mother's side. Is all I was saying,
because my wife lived in Their family have lived in
the pits here for generations, whereas I had only just
moved here my grandparents. My family is from a town quite.
Speaker 1: Far away, how far away, land far away, several.
Speaker 2: Months of travel, it's still still within chastam Funker somber Son.
They're in Chastam Funker's somber Son. There's a million things
I haven't done. Just you wait, just.
Speaker 12: I can't wait to see you.
Speaker 2: But no, they I didn't mean any It's not like
their graveside or anything, but the whole yards. We do
tend to group up graves based on families to make
visiting easier. Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: I mean, is it possible that something's going on that
is even.
Speaker 6: A mystery to you?
Speaker 7: Sir?
Speaker 2: If there's a blank grave there, then that is a
mystery to me.
Speaker 6: I'm gonna like lift one of Lily's ears and kind
of subtly whispered, this might not be the parent, ask.
Speaker 5: I guess they might have to have mama.
Speaker 12: Woo Golly, does some dinner smell just so good?
Speaker 1: Is that choice?
Speaker 6: Ox oxen and mushrooms? I have head oxen maybe like
three times.
Speaker 2: I'll prepare for time number four and it's going to
blow one three out of the water.
Speaker 6: Yeah gap, Oh, mister Capro, I'd like to see it.

One Woman Show, One incredible Hello.
Speaker 2: Bred Preterson becomes g Emerson.
Speaker 9: We've made too many jokes about that today. So what's
my safeboard?
Speaker 2: Is there anything you guys are doing until dinner happens?
Speaker 1: I don't think so.
Speaker 2: And then then so that takes about like a half
hour ish. I'm trying to keep my timelines consistent here
about a half hour. Is there anything you guys do?
You guys are so currently The others are a bit
farther ahead than you, timeline wise, because they said that
Desmond was going to come back there around like nine.
You guys are currently at about like eight ten. Pretty
late dinner, Frank, but you know sometimes that happens. Yeah,
dinner happens.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 2: The three triplets all sit at the table. They have
their little kind of booster seats, but not uh, there
is an open chair. You know, you do not that
there is one open chair that is not being used
by the family. So one of you consider the table, Pepper, it's.
Speaker 6: It's basically the kids table. You might as well.
Speaker 2: Then, just just so you know what's going on. And
that's Romero's chair, and he's currently not He's currently.

of dinner? Great my grandpa and grandma to insure the
sound the sudden sound of like of like silverware clattering, just.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, Sorry I pressed the wrong button. I
pressed my ut instead of.
Speaker 2: This God justice just coming out of nowhere. That's awkward.
Speaker 1: From what he was fucking removed from reality.
Speaker 4: That was awkward.
Speaker 2: Ship mushroom, more mushroom, These are right, all right, I'll leave.
I don't want to teleport anymore. I have a good one.
Speaker 14: Guys.
Speaker 1: It's truly incredible.
Speaker 2: It's like cable popping out of timelines in the New
X men fucking m Yeah, so you asked, there's a clatter,
and then your mother just looks surprised mostly and she's
an empty sorry a blank grave. Yeah, yes, our daughter
is worried that your family's grave site. Apparently there is
a blank grave that is nestled in among your grandparents
and there's no seemingly no name that is upon it.
And I have no memory of this.
Speaker 5: She sat to hit on me in front of Grandpa.
Speaker 2: Did what you didn't mention this? He did?
Speaker 6: What I lie.
Speaker 2: About? Which about? Which things? Did you lie? Look like?
Speaker 5: The saton doesn't even look like? And knowing? He Wow,
I can't speak how.
Speaker 2: Hang on me? But he is so.
Speaker 5: Beautiful.
Speaker 6: Yes, I can tell you what you can. You can
introduce him to the concept you might look.
Speaker 1: You got it, look like I know what a jpeg is.
Speaker 2: Sorry, I don't know anything about that. If there's I
don't remember there even being a I've been to visit
my grandparents grave every now and then, and I don't
remember there being a blank grave there.
Speaker 5: Hmmm.
Speaker 2: I'm pretty I have I'm pretty single minded when I'm
down there, though.
Speaker 6: Hm.
Speaker 5: He besides that one assignment that he asked you to
do Papa. He seems to know at least quite a
bit about our family.
Speaker 2: But how earlier she worked on I've only ever met
him the once he came to town. Apparently he was
new here at that point. He said that he had
some things to look for, but and only a vague
idea of where the expedition was. Very deep down it,
several layers lower than we normally go, but I was
The company would have normally said no to his request,
but I was young and adventurous, and I thought that
I could handle it. You were excited to come with
because you wanted to see what I did at the time,
and regretfully, I will admit I was perhaps showing off
a little bit, but he was new at that time.
He said that he didn't know anybody. He hadn't even
moved into the Kara Gosh's Sanctuary as he has now.
He said he didn't quite know what he was looking for,
but that he was looking for a abnormalities that were
down there. He said that he was looking for some
sort of overgrowth of some kind. Actually, now that I
think about it, he did tell me the basic idea,
but the details were so long ago that.
Speaker 5: They're a bit fuzzy really, Oh yeah, if I've seen
the flower field since, oh.
Speaker 6: The flower field, I need to track down this hot priest.
Speaker 2: Whenever you were down there, whenever we were down there,
there was the accident that separated us, and you had
your encounter with your prints, and we all searched for
you and feared you were lost. And it was actually
Sown who was the first one that managed to locate you,
that you met up with. And as soon as it
had happened and he saw how worried we were, he
called off the expedition, said that he felt terrible about
what had happened and that he didn't want to put
anybody else in danger. So we came back up. No
one was in the mood to try to disagree with
him or pursue whatever it was he was looking for,
and we wanted to make sure you were okay.
Speaker 16: But he.
Speaker 2: Visited. Actually he's been here since then. In the months following,
he would check in with the family to find out
what had happened, to ask how we were. And it's
difficult to explain, but he would always choose to come
at times when all the children were asleep, said he
didn't want to bother anybody. He just wanted to know
how we were. And it's not that his behavior changed.
You see, your father sort of puts a hand on
their forehead and like wipes their forehead with the back
of their hand. That's not just the strangest thing. He
just got more distant over time, and then eventually said
that he wished us well, said he was sorry, and
we haven't seen him since. That must have been eight
and a half nine years ago. For a time he
was actually got quite polite and familiar face, and then
just over time he seemed to drift away from the family.
Speaker 5: Hmmm. I then to see you tomorrow.
Speaker 2: You're going to go see him tomorrow, and I love
him tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Oh part is that the plane.
Speaker 9: That's my plan.
Speaker 1: Now where would you even find him?
Speaker 5: At the at the Sanctuary of Cara gosh, yeah, fair uh.
Speaker 1: For the record, I don't like him. Freaked me out.
Speaker 2: Bishop Lynellen. He are close friends, and so they've allowed
him to stay there for some time. I'm not even
sure what he does there. I think that he just
tucks himself out of the way and assists at the temple.
Speaker 5: Well, he told me, he told me ominously, you should
ask your father about what or whatever he was. He said,
So I've already done that and you don't know. I've
asked Mama and she doesn't know. So clearly I'm going
to go back to start and be like, okay, so
now explain.
Speaker 4: I have to.
Speaker 2: Maybe when I imagine that he became distant, perhaps what
I was imagining is that he became more evidently strange.
But he was always welcome here. And it's not that
he got rude. You see, your father like trying to
parse something out in his head, just drifted away.
Speaker 5: I suppose, don't worry Papa. When I go see him tomorrow,
I'll let him know that he is more than welcome
to visit the way he used to that for whatever reason,
if he thinks there's any animosity or hard feelings, that
he can come and know that there is no such thing.
Speaker 2: Very good. I would love for him to know that.
If he were to come over and say that he
wanted to see the family again, I mean, I'm always
willing to reconnect with an old friend.
Speaker 13: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Besides, you know, like you know, maybe if things work
got Mama, maybe who knows, they might even settle down.
Speaker 2: There's a brief like she's like mid bite on something,
and she.
Speaker 1: How old is this hot priest quote?
Speaker 2: He's, well, he's an elf. Yeah, an adult el doesn't matter,
no making making him. I would imagine at least over
one hundred years old.
Speaker 9: Mm hmmies huh, I mean, like how old? Young Lawrence.
Speaker 1: Just pointed out some stuff she pointed out to me.
Speaker 2: You know what they say about you know what they
say about dating with elves, that you you you have
to be half their age plus seventy that perfect.
Speaker 13: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know elves. I don't know things.
Speaker 6: What I'm saying, eat your damn mushrooms.
Speaker 1: We're burned in the cave worn.
Speaker 6: Yes, indeed they are. They thank you.
Speaker 5: This whole time, he kept talking like he knew something.
So at least I'll try to figure it out. And
if it turns out he was just pulling my leg
or just curious himself, I'll let him know that he's
still welcome here and maybe you can make a couple
of friends again.
Speaker 2: Is there anything else that you guys intend to accomplish
at this dinner apart from friendship and family?
Speaker 6: Is there dessert they got?
Speaker 2: Probably not? Okay, Dessert's kind of a special occasion thing.
That's fair. Yeah, that's the dessert is more mushrooms.
Speaker 1: Incredible and.
Speaker 9: Hey that ain't half a bed. Well, I mean, who knows,
maybe that will be where Scar meets up with us.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, the te Scarn, that's all. It's fun.
Speaker 2: Whipping back now, whipping back over real quick, just to
depart from here because I don't want to keep us
too too late today. Whipping back to the other side.
At this point, it's getting dark. The sun has effectively
gone almost entirely down, and Scarn, the moon root that
is up above is giving off a dull, amberish hue
at best. But it's getting to the time of the
night where it's not that hard for you to hide
because it's just dark. There's torches around, there's lights coming
from inside of homes, but for the most part, if
you're in one of the more open areas, it's just dark.
The best imagine twilight but inside twilight. Twilight but glow
sticks understandable as you, guys, are as you are staking
out the area, I'd like you to roll me another
perception check. Okay, we're at about eight thirty PM at
this point.
Speaker 4: What did you say in perception?
Speaker 2: Just perception perception check.
Speaker 13: Okay, cool.
Speaker 4: Rocking a twelve to a fourteen.
Speaker 13: Oh wait, that was a skill.
Speaker 4: Yeah that's correct, Yeah, okay, okay.
Speaker 2: That's true. Perception is only a skill. It was scared
as a skill. As you are waiting, at about eight
forty ish, some guesse something catches your attention. You've seen
people come and go you the old Mctross State is
also right across the way from the pay Night, which
is a gentleman's club, a ritzy gentleman's club. So yeah,
you've seen some people come and go as you've been
doing stuff, but they have mostly they mostly entered like
around the same general time, and it's mostly been quiet
since around eight. But at about eight forty you see
a small figure, must be a halfling or a gnome,
something of that stature, walking along carrying a pretty ornate lantern.
They have a robe very suspiciously pulled up over their body.
They're wearing a cloak that can have no intention other
than to hide their identity. Like it does not look
like a fashion statement. It looks like an attempt to hide.
They're holding a lantern out and behind them a similarly
robed eight maybe foot tall individual walks behind them, completely
draped in black robes and cloth, to the point that
you can't even see their face. You don't know how
they're moving. All you hear is this what catches your
attention from these two is a the light and be
this very heavy coming from the larger individual as they walk,
as they move toward the front of the.
Speaker 4: Old Mctrau's state.
Speaker 2: From where you are, you're like across the yard. You're
like somewhere between like the pay nite and the building
to the north of it. As you watch this in
the dark, you see them move over. You see them
go up to the door and they you hear a
distant knock on it, and after a moment it opens
and you see both of them enter into the estate,
the large figure having to crouch down to move in.
Speaker 4: It closes.
Speaker 2: Then you see a light coming from inside, like piercing
through the openings and the slats and the boards on
one of the nearby windows as it then goes out
and darkness overtakes the inside of the building.
Speaker 4: Okay, can I get a.
Speaker 15: Little bit close, like follow like outside kind of to
where I would possibly hear them?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can sneak over there. Roll me me two things.
Roll me a stealth check.
Speaker 4: If this will be odd, you're in darkness, you can
do it, I mean the stealth Yeah, so stealth check check.
Which let's go to A seventeen.
Speaker 2: You slip over, despite your very large form, you slip
over in the darkness. You slip over beside one of
the windows, one of the ones you could see more
light through, hoping that the boards being more SPREADU helps
you hear. Roll me a perception check with advantage.
Speaker 4: Okay, reception advantage? Oh ho was an at night?
Speaker 2: Can twenty one? You get beneath it and you hear
voices from inside. You do hear some shuffling, moving of clothes.
You hear the voice similar to the one you hear earlier,
just saying like, yes, things have moved a bit more
quickly around here than we had hoped that they would.
And then you hear another voice sounds a bit grumpier,
one that you vaguely feel like you might have heard
somewhere before, but you can't pin it down in the
same way that like what you might have heard like
your local government official on a radio once, but you
wouldn't necessarily know their name. You just hear, Yes, I
had wish things would stay quieter. If I must contact
them to get an update, things must truly have gone bad,
and not only that they're investigating. Now this can't go on.
I'll be inside the study. I need to talk to
them immediately. You hear shuffling, and you hear the closing
of doors.
Speaker 4: M he said, he'll be inside this study. Okay, anything
else that I can investigate? Or is that just what
we got right?
Speaker 2: Chile Justice thinks Desmond, you would be around this time,
coming like up into the underloft pit and heading towards
where he is to relieve him of his duty. Here question,
would you take stuff to the house first or would you.
Speaker 14: Yeah, I figure I would have.
Speaker 13: I'd go to the house with lifting and then relieve him.
Speaker 2: Beforehand for the sake of for the sake of delineation,
I imagine I did that. You do that, You go there,
you have a talk with them. They don't really know
how to take it. Just so you know, when you
tell the kids about their father, how do you tell them.
Speaker 13: He wants to kind of frame in the fact that
he died in a way that there's going to be justice.
Speaker 2: And that he.
Speaker 13: Was actively trying to stop bad people from doing things.
Speaker 2: Okay, do you tell them about the being turned into
an undead or do.
Speaker 13: You tell absolute Yeah, he wouldn't want that out to
anyone that's not already in the know.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 14: He he lets them know that he's been buried next
to where their mom was.
Speaker 2: As you say this to them and you take off,
you do as as soon as they seem like they're
trying to keep it together. The older sibling in particular
seems like he's trying to keep it together. And as
you're leaving, you do hear sobbing devolving into crying from
the rooms behind you as you leave. As you head
out to go and relieve Scarn of his watch uh
at this being about eight forty ish, Now you see
him kind of back pressed up against the front of
the old Mctroth State near the door, a bit off
to the left of the main entrance. As he appears
to be listening. You immediately get the sense something is up.
Speaker 13: You're sneaky?
Speaker 2: Are you saying that the assuption that you get close
to him? Yeah, okay, Desmond operates scarred beside you and
says you're sneaky.
Speaker 15: You have to be when you're trying to figure out
what's going on. I heard two guys go inside. It
looks suspiciously like us, Oh yeah, start good. Yeah, it's weird.
But I heard of these two voices, a guy saying
he's going inside the study, and that they.
Speaker 4: Definitely know that we're following. They know we're investigating them.
Speaker 13: But it makes sense if they're connected to the governorship,
they would have been notified a couple of days ago.
Speaker 4: You had any insight or any ideas, that's.
Speaker 13: All that's about it.
Speaker 14: You said, he's in the study.
Speaker 4: That's what he said.
Speaker 14: How many stories does these date?
Speaker 2: Just one? This estate is it's wide, but it's one story.
Speaker 13: Hm, you're trying to get close to it unless it's
in the basement. But it's a pretty shoddy spot to
put a study. You're not getting any route line. Then
what's the point, right, m Nothing we can do but
check it. We go around to the.
Speaker 4: Is there a study window?
Speaker 2: We can just go around so you guys wouldn't know
where we don't.
Speaker 14: Yeah, we'd have to just like listen point to point.
Speaker 2: I will say that you are aware that there was
a specific room they had like a long hallway leading
to like a sealed gazebo, like, but there are no
windows to speak of in that part of the structure,
and there's no doors or anything get in and just
solid wood between you and it. You would have a
hard time hearing through that.
Speaker 15: Yeah, you're not hearing through that, Sean the dark. You
said it's a gazebo type thing. Is it covered on
the top?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's It's just like imagine the shape of a
gazebo and then just imagine that's a room, oh god,
with with a hallway leading to the rest of the building.
Speaker 4: All right, I's thinking some you know, jumping on top. Actually,
all right, I'll figure this out.
Speaker 2: And you did say that they're doing it tonight with
their contact that they're doing tonight.
Speaker 15: Yeah, I got nothing else but the hold they just hold.
See what with what else we can find because we
don't know if they're theory yet.
Speaker 13: It depends on if they're meeting in person or if
they're contacting by ascending stones, letters, et cetera. If they're
connected to the governorship that have access to those things
the BBT.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
Speaker 4: What else can we do.
Speaker 14: Without breaking in? There's not much of an option.
Speaker 15: I don't want to just break into another person's house today?
Can we just keep staking out here?
Speaker 14: We can, but I don't think we're gonna learn anything
if we do.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's true. What do you think there would be
if they were to No? Would they meet? Here? Is
the only place we.
Speaker 13: Have, right, I have two suppositions. He might be contacting
them with magic, or there may be some sort of
tunnel system connected to the estate. H and I believe
that that tunnel system would lead out of the pits,
or at least into one of the nearby pathways that
they could use to quietly exit the pits. Agget's found
this place, and this is the last place he's documented
having been before we found him as an undead, So
that means he went in here and he came out
of zombie.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 15: So there's definitely something going on in here after all
the things I heard before.
Speaker 13: Regardless of whether or not mctrauwe knows exactly what's going on,
this place is being used as a some degree of
a base of operations.
Speaker 4: Definitely mm hmm.
Speaker 2: Hm.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I got nothing else.
Speaker 14: Got those pins?
Speaker 18: I do have those pins? Wait a minute, Yeah, we
would it be a good idea for us to just
you know, knock on this door, ask some.
Speaker 13: The front door had trunk maybe, so if we're gonna
try that, maybe you should do the talking this time.
I have I didn't do so good last time.
Speaker 4: Mm hmm.
Speaker 13: My whole shang.
Speaker 4: Sanguine them like.
Speaker 13: Something artifascium ecology and my where.
Speaker 4: Is it written?
Speaker 15: It's somewhere turnum sang artificium at collegiate al turn.
Speaker 14: Them turning right and then suup uh.
Speaker 4: Emoiate and more to it. Hey, I'm just going with it.
A dyslexia is crazy, No, I mean, you.
Speaker 13: Know, they probably some of them have speat rere pediments,
so we can just blend in with them.
Speaker 4: We'll figure it out.
Speaker 15: But we definitely need like a cloak or something, because
these guys seem to be pretty secret.
Speaker 4: You got anything, We can figure that out with.
Speaker 18: M hm.
Speaker 14: I left mine behind.
Speaker 13: So no, I'm only this game for this kind of
Shenantigan's because this place is a house of crime, and
so I feel like, you know, there's a I don't
mind lying criminals.
Speaker 15: No, I don't either. Oh, I guess we try and
get into the bank at this place to break in.
Speaker 2: Okay, if you guys are going to attempt to break in.
They're going to try to enter into this place.
