21:54.458 --> 21:56.180
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, cool as, we're live.
21:57.582 --> 22:00.405
[Riv (DM)]: Actually, give me one second, I should probably close the door.
22:01.487 --> 22:02.508
[Riv (DM)]: Behind me.
22:11.860 --> 22:17.767
[Riv (DM)]: Otherwise, partner running around in like, you know, home clothes probably doesn't want to have all that displayed on the internet.
22:20.090 --> 22:22.373
[Riv (DM)]: Good.
22:23.078 --> 22:24.543
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, sweet.
22:24.643 --> 22:25.526
[Lacer (Kai)]: Demonetized.
22:25.787 --> 22:29.520
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah.
22:29.540 --> 22:30.001
[Riv (DM)]: 100 degrees.
22:30.804 --> 22:32.650
[Riv (DM)]: So, the bloody nails, eh?
22:33.220 --> 22:36.063
[Riv (DM)]: Our group of adventurers and rebels in the making.
22:37.204 --> 22:49.018
[Riv (DM)]: While waiting for the Mawbreakers, who are an elite sailing guild, to complete analysis of the Skyreach schematics, you took on a few mercenary jobs in the city of Camaar from the Green Griffin Guild.
22:50.700 --> 23:00.831
[Riv (DM)]: The current one that you were doing was to find the missing wife of the local alchemist, the cobblestone alchemist, and the woman's name was Teresa.
23:00.811 --> 23:08.003
[Riv (DM)]: You travelled to a nearby mining village of Phaelon where it was known that she would go to find, to gather the ingredients.
23:09.104 --> 23:22.106
[Riv (DM)]: Spending a night in the village you heard from the locals some folk legends about the legend of Sela the Brave, a young girl who had gone missing many decades ago, now rumoured to be a spirit roaming in the woods.
23:23.207 --> 23:27.274
[Riv (DM)]: Turns out that her twin sister, Sela's twin sister Tara,
23:27.254 --> 23:38.476
[Riv (DM)]: Still lived in the village and after meeting with her to gather some more information you headed out into the woods thinking that there may be some connection between the spirit and the disappearance of Teresa.
23:39.358 --> 23:49.397
[Riv (DM)]: Searching a while along a jagged rocky location called the Tumbler's Crag you found some evidence of a trail and heard some unusual sounds deep inside.
23:49.765 --> 23:55.535
[Riv (DM)]: Which lead you to an opening to a cave deep inside the crag itself.
23:56.276 --> 24:04.571
[Riv (DM)]: Inside the cave you found another one of these weird sort of cracks in space itself which Dondar detected was radiating very strong necromantic energy.
24:05.332 --> 24:12.465
[Riv (DM)]: There was a tiny humanoid skeleton holding a silver amulet on the ground and when investigated and picked up
24:12.445 --> 24:19.051
[Riv (DM)]: We're attacked by a bunch of different ghosts, including one that looked like a small ghostly girl.
24:20.973 --> 24:22.835
[Riv (DM)]: The fight kicked off.
24:23.435 --> 24:28.460
[Riv (DM)]: A bunch of you immediately fell unconscious after hearing some shrieks of terror.
24:29.100 --> 24:41.592
[Riv (DM)]: And you also heard and found another woman in the cave with you who had fallen unconscious, but you were able to stabilize during the fight so that she wouldn't die.
24:42.179 --> 24:43.628
[Riv (DM)]: And that is where we are picking up.
24:44.212 --> 24:46.245
[Riv (DM)]: So, looking around.
24:46.265 --> 24:48.257
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, let's get some music going.
24:49.655 --> 24:57.782
[Riv (DM)]: Looking around at the few people who are still standing up, some of you, you can see blood coming out from your eyes, out from your ears, even your fingernails.
24:58.083 --> 25:00.445
[Riv (DM)]: Those of you who aren't wearing gloves, you can see blood is coming out of it.
25:00.965 --> 25:07.391
[Riv (DM)]: Some sort of internal, you know, wounds being inflicted from the shrieks themselves.
25:08.872 --> 25:19.662
[Riv (DM)]: Vaeloran, the fighter in your group, is lying on the ground unconscious and the woman in the back of the cave is just like back to a wall, just holding herself.
25:19.642 --> 25:20.984
[Riv (DM)]: What would you like to do?
25:21.024 --> 25:28.934
[Lacer (Kai)]: Um, I would like to go down to Valorant and stabilize him.
25:30.276 --> 25:33.681
[Riv (DM)]: So Valorant is already stable, I believe you had done a medicine check.
25:33.701 --> 25:34.101
[Lacer (Kai)]: Oh, he's stable.
25:34.121 --> 25:34.942
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, yeah, I've got it.
25:34.962 --> 25:35.383
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, I've got it.
25:35.403 --> 25:36.364
[Riv (DM)]: You just stayed true.
25:36.384 --> 25:39.328
[Unmatched Speaker]: Okay, uh...
25:39.348 --> 25:40.109
[Unmatched Speaker]: Uh, is anyone down?
25:41.251 --> 25:43.714
[Riv (DM)]: Just Valorant.
25:43.734 --> 25:44.635
[Unmatched Speaker]: Are you down, JC?
25:45.436 --> 25:46.858
[Unmatched Speaker]: No, I think I've got a little bit of health.
25:47.399 --> 25:47.539
[Riv (DM)]: Yep.
25:48.397 --> 25:56.867
[Riv (DM)]: Um and also another note is a couple of you have been uh had your strength scores reduced um from the some of the ghosts who were draining your energy.
25:57.028 --> 26:03.175
[Riv (DM)]: I think that should currently be in your character sheet but I've got your originals so we can update them when you fix it.
26:03.335 --> 26:05.258
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah I don't think I have the natural strength.
26:05.278 --> 26:10.104
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yeah Riv it's just opening my character in D&D Beyond is getting me to 11 HP.
26:11.045 --> 26:11.485
[Riv (DM)]: Bizarre.
26:11.525 --> 26:12.767
[Riv (DM)]: How much health have you got in D&D Beyond?
26:13.895 --> 26:16.598
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Strange.
26:16.678 --> 26:17.900
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'll figure that out afterwards.
26:18.420 --> 26:18.941
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yeah.
26:18.961 --> 26:20.303
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: And I was saying 11 and 10 DB.
26:20.343 --> 26:21.504
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm auto-transferring it.
26:24.527 --> 26:24.888
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
26:25.008 --> 26:31.956
[JC (Ryo)]: Which one's Valorant?
26:32.597 --> 26:36.882
[JC (Ryo)]: Seeing Valorant down, I'm going to walk over to him and tap him on the shoulder and cast Cure on his.
26:38.144 --> 26:40.487
[Riv (DM)]: Okay, because you are a ranger and you can do that.
26:42.329 --> 26:44.391
[Riv (DM)]: Cool, go ahead and roll the healing.
26:45.652 --> 26:46.834
[JC (Ryo)]: I can't move my character though.
26:47.374 --> 26:48.876
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, game is paused, don't worry about it.
26:48.896 --> 26:50.938
[Riv (DM)]: We can, yeah, bear in mind it.
27:01.870 --> 27:05.434
[Riv (DM)]: Before you play any healing, Vale, can you please roll me a d6, Rio?
27:07.439 --> 27:08.731
[Lacer (Kai)]: Oh, I forgot about that.
27:08.771 --> 27:11.779
[Lacer (Kai)]: There's the freaking magical space crack thing.
27:12.923 --> 27:14.365
[Riv (DM)]: Mmm.
27:14.385 --> 27:15.146
[Riv (DM)]: Rift.
27:15.166 --> 27:20.194
[Riv (DM)]: So you, as you lean forward to touch him, normally your hand would glow this green colour.
27:20.795 --> 27:31.410
[Riv (DM)]: As you start pulling on these arcane energies to fuel your healing, this crack behind you starts, you know, angrily making this noise, this crackling hissing sort of a sound.
27:31.891 --> 27:37.219
[Riv (DM)]: You look over your shoulder and you see this kind of pulsing black and the energy that would normally glow around your hand almost gets stripped away.
27:38.160 --> 27:41.665
[Riv (DM)]: Valeran, you suffer a death saving throw as you take five damage.
27:46.100 --> 27:46.761
[Riv (DM)]: Jesus.
27:47.621 --> 27:48.202
[JC (Ryo)]: What the hell?
27:48.222 --> 27:50.124
[JC (Ryo)]: I've never tried to...
27:50.144 --> 27:51.966
[JC (Ryo)]: I thought this was supposed to help you heal someone.
27:52.006 --> 27:52.906
[JC (Ryo)]: I've never done this before.
27:54.848 --> 28:04.397
[Lacer (Kai)]: I think it's the area where we need to get away from this rift of sorts.
28:05.378 --> 28:06.960
[Riv (DM)]: That's Dondarmy.
28:06.980 --> 28:14.487
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: So what we're going to do now, we will... Technically Riv, that's two death saving throws because I took damage while unconscious.
28:14.770 --> 28:15.631
[Riv (DM)]: Nah, just a single one.
28:15.712 --> 28:17.074
[Riv (DM)]: It's only two if it's a critical hit.
28:19.037 --> 28:23.705
[Riv (DM)]: Which would happen if it was a melee attack when you're unconscious.
28:24.005 --> 28:28.273
[Riv (DM)]: It would be an automatic critical, but since it's just like, yeah, magic damage, it's just a single one.
28:28.934 --> 28:30.777
[Riv (DM)]: We're going to go into initiative, actually.
28:30.837 --> 28:34.483
[Riv (DM)]: We'll just continue using the original initiative because it's still up there.
28:34.463 --> 28:42.814
[Riv (DM)]: Because it is now a time-sensitive thing since Vale has failed a death saving throw, so... We'll go to Erendor.
28:43.735 --> 28:46.118
[Riv (DM)]: Erendor looks around.
28:47.379 --> 28:48.501
[Riv (DM)]: Let me just check his inventory.
28:51.064 --> 28:54.368
[Riv (DM)]: He just kind of opens his hands and says, I can't do anything.
28:54.889 --> 28:56.170
[Riv (DM)]: And it will be Dondarr.
29:00.996 --> 29:01.557
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Oh shit.
29:03.560 --> 29:03.880
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Um...
29:06.813 --> 29:09.317
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Well, as we've established, I cannot heal.
29:10.278 --> 29:16.287
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Am I able to drag anyone away from the rift?
29:16.307 --> 29:17.949
[Riv (DM)]: Yep, you could try and move him.
29:17.969 --> 29:22.375
[Riv (DM)]: You could move at half feet, half distance.
29:22.395 --> 29:24.338
[Riv (DM)]: Like half your movement distance, if you wanted to try and drag him.
29:25.560 --> 29:27.162
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Okay, yep.
29:28.664 --> 29:31.909
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Sorry, I've forgotten who everyone is on the
29:33.661 --> 29:35.202
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, so this'll be Vael here.
29:36.203 --> 29:36.483
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
29:37.364 --> 29:39.546
[Riv (DM)]: So you could go... You've got 25 feet, is it?
29:39.606 --> 29:49.134
[Riv (DM)]: So you could go 10 feet to there, and then you'd probably get to... Yeah, like, you'd probably be able to drag him like a square or two, basically.
29:50.336 --> 29:51.216
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Is that helpful?
29:51.657 --> 29:52.257
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Try to do that?
29:53.158 --> 29:53.558
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Up to you, man.
29:55.040 --> 29:56.241
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Where is the rift?
29:56.261 --> 29:56.781
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Is it up here?
29:57.201 --> 29:59.644
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, rift is sort of up in this sort of back part of the cave.
30:00.144 --> 30:01.405
[Riv (DM)]: Up here.
30:01.425 --> 30:03.567
[Riv (DM)]: Sort of like floating above where the skeleton is.
30:06.719 --> 30:07.080
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Oh.
30:07.841 --> 30:08.422
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Oh, I see.
30:09.804 --> 30:11.147
[Riv (DM)]: Um, yeah, sure.
30:11.407 --> 30:11.668
[Riv (DM)]: I think.
30:12.068 --> 30:12.309
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
30:12.329 --> 30:13.130
[Riv (DM)]: So why don't we just go like this?
30:13.251 --> 30:15.414
[Riv (DM)]: So you drag them square down here.
30:16.216 --> 30:16.837
[Riv (DM)]: That's good.
30:16.857 --> 30:17.578
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
30:17.598 --> 30:19.542
[Riv (DM)]: Um, Kai, your go.
30:19.562 --> 30:20.003
[Riv (DM)]: What are you doing?
30:21.806 --> 30:28.778
[Lacer (Kai)]: Um, I would like to get a bag.
30:29.298 --> 30:50.023
[Lacer (Kai)]: From my like a pouch and I call out to Erendor to um since I saw him do his glowy hand thing ages back in the previous previous city to see if he can move um Salah's bones into the bag
30:52.653 --> 30:56.437
[Riv (DM)]: Do you mean to, like, so you want him to do a mage hand to pick them up to put them in the bag?
30:56.698 --> 30:57.879
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, yeah, but I don't know that.
30:58.760 --> 31:00.883
[Lacer (Kai)]: I've only seen him use his glowy hand thing.
31:00.923 --> 31:04.747
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, well he says, I think it's a Kendra thing.
31:05.468 --> 31:06.569
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, he says he can do it.
31:07.590 --> 31:16.301
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, I prepared my bag already, and I, would you say her bones are here, or like near this fence?
31:16.701 --> 31:17.882
[Lacer (Kai)]: Or were they there?
31:18.123 --> 31:19.144
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm gonna move up closer.
31:20.846 --> 31:21.006
[Unmatched Speaker]: Alright.
31:21.830 --> 31:26.257
[Lacer (Kai)]: So, yeah, I've prepared a pouch ready to take the burns with us.
31:27.379 --> 31:27.639
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Cool.
31:29.402 --> 31:31.024
[Lacer (Kai)]: Vale, roll the saving throw.
31:32.907 --> 31:34.570
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: You know, if I roll a one here, I'd die.
31:37.374 --> 31:39.377
[Lacer (Kai)]: Oh shit, can I...
31:39.397 --> 31:41.120
[Lacer (Kai)]: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
31:41.140 --> 31:46.588
[Lacer (Kai)]: Could I still... Could I... Second diff save.
31:54.635 --> 31:55.076
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
31:55.837 --> 31:56.518
[Riv (DM)]: Not dead yet, right?
31:57.059 --> 31:58.642
[Riv (DM)]: Kai, was there anything else you wanted to say?
31:58.662 --> 32:00.164
[Riv (DM)]: Because you hadn't done your action yet.
32:03.550 --> 32:08.858
[Lacer (Kai)]: If I move there... Would you say I collected the bones already?
32:09.119 --> 32:10.962
[Lacer (Kai)]: Or was that an action to collect the bones?
32:10.982 --> 32:12.424
[Lacer (Kai)]: You could use your action to collect them.
32:14.407 --> 32:20.457
[Lacer (Kai)]: And it'd be another action to run out and stabilize Vale, right?
32:23.069 --> 32:23.630
[Lacer (Kai)]: You know what?
32:23.650 --> 32:24.631
[Lacer (Kai)]: I can collect the bones later.
32:24.911 --> 32:26.273
[Lacer (Kai)]: He can mage hand the bones to me.
32:26.453 --> 32:29.016
[Lacer (Kai)]: I move here and I stabilize Vale.
32:29.236 --> 32:29.457
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
32:29.497 --> 32:30.378
[Riv (DM)]: Roll a medicine check.
32:32.680 --> 32:33.141
[Lacer (Kai)]: Okay.
32:41.191 --> 32:41.711
[Riv (DM)]: Oh no.
32:44.194 --> 32:47.098
[Riv (DM)]: You're pounding on his chest but it doesn't seem to be working.
32:50.542 --> 32:50.882
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright.
32:51.352 --> 32:53.596
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Kai, Kai, come on, come on Kai.
32:53.616 --> 32:56.982
[Lacer (Kai)]: No, I just like, the rift is gonna mess up my heals.
32:58.585 --> 33:00.308
[Riv (DM)]: I'll just um, yeah.
33:01.129 --> 33:04.936
[Riv (DM)]: Have a think about everything, all the things you've got available to you.
33:05.717 --> 33:09.384
[Riv (DM)]: All the tools you've got, you've got items, you've got spells.
33:09.404 --> 33:11.788
[Lacer (Kai)]: Actually I've got a potion, I can down a potion.
33:11.928 --> 33:15.655
[Lacer (Kai)]: I can pour a potion from my inventory to...
33:16.951 --> 33:21.517
[Riv (DM)]: But you have done your action, so you'll have to do that on your next turn.
33:22.258 --> 33:23.579
[Lacer (Kai)]: You know, do you have any potion?
33:23.699 --> 33:25.642
[Lacer (Kai)]: Oh wait, can I drop a potion?
33:25.882 --> 33:26.723
[Lacer (Kai)]: Rio, what are you doing?
33:28.566 --> 33:38.738
[JC (Ryo)]: Well, since I was already standing next to Vale before Dondarr dragged him, I should be more than within range to take a potion out of my belt and pour it down his throat.
33:38.758 --> 33:39.820
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
33:39.840 --> 33:41.021
[Riv (DM)]: Have you got a potion on you?
33:41.742 --> 33:42.103
[JC (Ryo)]: I do.
33:43.584 --> 33:44.546
[Riv (DM)]: One potion of healing, alright.
33:45.006 --> 33:46.468
[Riv (DM)]: Roll your potion healing.
33:55.865 --> 33:56.666
[Riv (DM)]: Pour it.
33:56.686 --> 34:01.974
[Riv (DM)]: The liquid, you know, you have to open up his mouth and gently pour it in to try and make sure as much as possible goes in.
34:01.994 --> 34:04.898
[Riv (DM)]: A second goes by.
34:05.760 --> 34:06.521
[Riv (DM)]: Two seconds go by.
34:06.561 --> 34:08.784
[Riv (DM)]: They feel very, very long seconds.
34:11.128 --> 34:16.776
[Riv (DM)]: And then his chest raises and, Vael, you do heal eight points.
34:17.778 --> 34:21.303
[Riv (DM)]: Seems that potions do not get effective here.
34:22.985 --> 34:23.346
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
34:23.847 --> 34:24.167
[Riv (DM)]: Lovely.
34:26.594 --> 34:27.716
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I saw the light twice.
34:27.736 --> 34:30.740
[Riv (DM)]: That was very close.
34:32.222 --> 34:41.375
[Riv (DM)]: As you sort of look around Vale, you see you've got your friends, your companions gathered around you looking concerned in the taste of some liquid on your mouth.
34:43.318 --> 34:44.620
[Riv (DM)]: Roll a wisdom saving throw for me.
34:57.458 --> 35:09.813
[Riv (DM)]: You look up at the faces of your companions but you don't recognize anyone.
35:10.133 --> 35:17.222
[Riv (DM)]: You're sure that you knew these people but suddenly you are now convinced that these people actually mean you harm.
35:17.462 --> 35:23.449
[Riv (DM)]: They are the ones that just nearly killed you and they're leaning over you to finish the job.
35:23.429 --> 35:39.090
[Riv (DM)]: You get this flash in your mind and everything goes black and for a second you just see a vision of now slightly familiar rows of a thousand men in matching grey clothes either side of you, thrusting forward and training regiments.
35:40.532 --> 35:48.303
[Riv (DM)]: The vision disappears and looking up you see a bunch of people that mean to do you harm.
35:48.543 --> 35:49.044
[Riv (DM)]: What are you doing?
35:49.184 --> 35:49.825
[Riv (DM)]: It's your turn.
35:51.610 --> 35:57.581
[Lacer (Kai)]: He's prone though.
35:57.601 --> 35:59.124
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm prone, I'm just seeing what I have.
35:59.945 --> 36:05.976
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm pretty depleted I think after that fight.
36:05.996 --> 36:09.983
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: My sword's probably not handy, so I am just going to punch the nearest person.
36:10.865 --> 36:11.927
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, which one are you bunching?
36:14.411 --> 36:15.373
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I would imagine...
36:19.792 --> 36:22.295
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Kai was trying to stabilize me, so he's probably the closest.
36:23.437 --> 36:25.540
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, I think they'll probably all get around you.
36:25.580 --> 36:26.280
[JC (Ryo)]: I just finished pouring a drink.
36:26.301 --> 36:27.622
[JC (Ryo)]: I just finished pouring a bottle there, you tell ya.
36:27.642 --> 36:28.864
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, you can take it back.
36:28.944 --> 36:34.291
[Lacer (Kai)]: You're gonna suck me off.
36:34.311 --> 36:37.515
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I don't know if I have an armed attack on my attack list at the moment.
36:38.356 --> 36:39.538
[Riv (DM)]: Just roll a d20.
36:40.018 --> 36:41.841
[Riv (DM)]: Is that plus your strength mod?
36:41.861 --> 36:42.762
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yeah, yup.
36:46.910 --> 36:49.453
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Um, so that's... Oh, it doesn't hit.
36:49.653 --> 36:50.093
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: It's four.
36:50.594 --> 36:51.234
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: So, seven.
36:51.875 --> 36:52.836
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Eyes are still blurry.
36:52.856 --> 36:53.677
[Riv (DM)]: So, three in a row.
36:53.977 --> 36:57.601
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, the blood coming from your nose and your eyes is sort of blocking your vision a bit and you swing wide.
36:57.661 --> 37:08.211
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: No, I don't have any bonuses.
37:09.613 --> 37:10.774
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Probably just Scrabble back.
37:11.755 --> 37:11.955
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
37:13.353 --> 37:14.334
[Riv (DM)]: Best as I could.
37:14.354 --> 37:20.644
[Riv (DM)]: Yep, so you can use half your movement to get up from prone, or if you want to stay prone, I guess move half your movement away.
37:21.926 --> 37:24.329
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Probably stay prone, about the same.
37:24.349 --> 37:24.489
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Cool.
37:24.509 --> 37:27.494
[Riv (DM)]: If he moves away, does he get an attack of opportunity?
37:27.714 --> 37:30.558
[Riv (DM)]: Well, if the rest of you want to, you can take an attack of opportunity on him.
37:33.002 --> 37:34.825
[Lacer (Kai)]: No, it's alright.
37:34.845 --> 37:37.909
[Riv (DM)]: Can I use Hypnotic Gaze on him?
37:38.800 --> 37:39.942
[Riv (DM)]: When we get to your turn, we could, yeah.
37:40.643 --> 37:44.629
[Riv (DM)]: But it's a reaction at the moment, so it would be, yeah, it would be... Oh.
37:44.649 --> 37:45.089
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
37:45.109 --> 37:45.189
[Riv (DM)]: Bye.
37:45.550 --> 37:47.293
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Yep.
37:47.313 --> 37:47.513
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Okay.
37:49.135 --> 37:49.896
[Riv (DM)]: Rio, you'll go.
37:49.936 --> 37:50.417
[Riv (DM)]: What are you doing?
37:51.979 --> 37:55.364
[Riv (DM)]: So, like, you were, you just poured your potion into your friend's mouth.
37:56.586 --> 38:01.514
[Riv (DM)]: You saw life come back to him and just darkness filled his eyes as he looked at you in hatred and anger.
38:04.278 --> 38:05.259
[JC (Ryo)]: Valerans, I'm sorry.
38:05.539 --> 38:07.963
[JC (Ryo)]: This first time I've tried to heal, I thought that would get you up.
38:10.812 --> 38:19.973
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: If the words mean nothing, then it's just silence and readying my weapons.
38:22.980 --> 38:23.221
[JC (Ryo)]: Cool.
38:23.682 --> 38:25.286
[Riv (DM)]: Any movement or actions, Rio?
38:28.353 --> 38:28.473
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: No.
38:29.295 --> 38:29.395
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Okay.
38:30.455 --> 38:39.807
[Riv (DM)]: Erindor is going to be, he was watching this from afar, he's going to run forward a bit and just sort of yell out, hold him down, restrain him guys, we need to, you know, disarm him.
38:40.648 --> 38:42.590
[Riv (DM)]: Just kind of yell out, I think he probably can't.
38:44.973 --> 38:46.255
[Riv (DM)]: Oh yeah, he could probably get down here.
38:46.996 --> 38:49.098
[Riv (DM)]: He's going to just clamber around beside you.
38:49.238 --> 38:55.707
[Riv (DM)]: Oh hey, sorry, let's, let's make sure we... Yeah, he can still get there, very cool.
38:56.307 --> 38:58.470
[Riv (DM)]: And he's just, I guess, going to try to grapple you.
39:00.172 --> 39:01.273
[Riv (DM)]: With a Athletics check.
39:01.774 --> 39:15.150
[Riv (DM)]: This will be a contested so feel free to roll Athletics to... Alright, he tries to grab you but you kind of kick his arms away.
39:15.711 --> 39:18.354
[Riv (DM)]: He's trying to grab you around the legs and he's unsuccessful.
39:19.435 --> 39:21.117
[Riv (DM)]: Bringing us to Dondarr.
39:24.117 --> 39:27.664
[Riv (DM)]: Um, yeah, so can I use Hypnotic Gaze on him?
39:28.045 --> 39:28.586
[Riv (DM)]: Absolutely.
39:29.989 --> 39:34.158
[Riv (DM)]: So you gotta run up?
39:34.178 --> 39:37.404
[Riv (DM)]: Uh, I don't know if she knows the range.
39:38.567 --> 39:38.847
[Lacer (Kai)]: Five feet.
39:38.867 --> 39:40.831
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, you gotta be within melee, yeah, so you gotta move up to him?
39:41.132 --> 39:41.232
Yeah.
39:42.241 --> 39:47.369
[Lacer (Kai)]: Would that be... if he's casting it, is it at disadvantage if he's at melee or it's not?
39:47.869 --> 39:51.214
[Riv (DM)]: That's for ranged attacks, like ranged spell attacks.
39:52.536 --> 39:52.917
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, cool.
39:52.977 --> 39:55.320
[Riv (DM)]: Make a DC 13 wisdom saving throw, Veleran.
39:58.004 --> 39:59.807
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm so good at wisdom saving throws.
40:03.292 --> 40:06.477
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, you are charmed by Dondar.
40:07.115 --> 40:20.213
[Riv (DM)]: All of a sudden, despite thinking this group of people around you are their enemies, this one guy, you know, maybe he was a friend actually, he seems alright, and you are unable to move and very confused and dazed.
40:22.336 --> 40:22.937
[Riv (DM)]: Call Kai.
40:25.160 --> 40:26.903
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, let's make this easy, shall we?
40:27.083 --> 40:32.330
[Lacer (Kai)]: I cast Command at first level on Valoran.
40:32.350 --> 40:34.253
[Riv (DM)]: What are you going to command him to do?
40:35.532 --> 40:37.013
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm gonna...
40:37.514 --> 40:40.297
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm gonna... Let's see.
40:42.939 --> 40:45.261
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm gonna tell him to Rubble.
40:47.183 --> 40:47.403
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright.
40:50.647 --> 40:51.868
[Lacer (Kai)]: That's my action, right?
40:52.108 --> 40:52.628
[Lacer (Kai)]: Can I...
40:52.648 --> 40:55.211
[Lacer (Kai)]: I can't run up bonus action, try and grapple him, can I?
40:56.012 --> 40:58.054
[Riv (DM)]: Grapple would be a full action, yeah.
40:58.594 --> 41:01.157
[Riv (DM)]: Cool, so DC 14 was some saving throw, Valoran?
41:01.277 --> 41:01.557
[Riv (DM)]: Man.
41:04.051 --> 41:04.472
[Riv (DM)]: Nope.
41:05.293 --> 41:07.217
[Riv (DM)]: This time he does save, actually.
41:07.237 --> 41:09.501
[Unmatched Speaker]: I know, he makes it.
41:09.701 --> 41:10.022
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
41:10.963 --> 41:17.174
[Riv (DM)]: I mean, to be fair he is already prone on the ground, but he will be able to choose his actions next turn regardless.
41:18.016 --> 41:21.402
[Riv (DM)]: Valeran, top of your turn, make it with some saving throw for me.
41:29.279 --> 41:37.794
[Riv (DM)]: Another flash, your mind goes blank and in front of you there's a woman kneeling, tears in her eyes, she's pleading for you.
41:38.155 --> 41:41.481
[Riv (DM)]: Flash and it disappears and once more you're surrounded by enemies.
41:41.722 --> 41:46.029
[Riv (DM)]: What are you doing?
41:46.049 --> 41:48.013
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Fighting my way out, that's what I'm doing.
41:48.736 --> 41:50.519
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Isn't he still...
41:50.680 --> 41:53.525
[Lacer (Kai)]: Wait, is Veil possessed?
41:53.685 --> 41:54.787
[Riv (DM)]: Oh true, yeah, sorry.
41:54.807 --> 42:01.400
[Riv (DM)]: So he is, you cannot take actions, you are incapacitated by the charm of Dundar.
42:02.262 --> 42:05.147
[Riv (DM)]: Nonetheless, the vision still comes to you.
42:05.508 --> 42:07.251
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, cool, so we'll go straight to Rio.
42:11.551 --> 42:14.195
[Riv (DM)]: You can see Dondar's standing in front of... DM.
42:14.515 --> 42:15.216
[Riv (DM)]: Yep.
42:15.236 --> 42:22.907
[Riv (DM)]: He's leaning over Valerian's body and like his eyes are sort of locked and you can see like this magical glowing energy coming from the corners of Dondar's eyes.
42:22.927 --> 42:25.411
[Riv (DM)]: DM.
42:25.431 --> 42:27.694
[JC (Ryo)]: Why don't you let me hang onto your swords, buddy?
42:28.074 --> 42:30.758
[JC (Ryo)]: And I'm gonna just walk up and try and take your swords off you.
42:31.514 --> 42:39.584
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, so I think his sword would probably still be on the ground beside pretty much where you were because he wouldn't have picked it up after falling unconscious.
42:40.645 --> 42:42.207
[Riv (DM)]: So you can grab that sword if you want from the ground.
42:43.488 --> 42:45.010
[JC (Ryo)]: But does he have any weapons on him still?
42:45.972 --> 42:47.794
[Riv (DM)]: Just a shield strapped to his arm, I think.
42:48.074 --> 42:50.577
[Riv (DM)]: And do you have that giant greatsword on your back?
42:50.597 --> 42:51.338
[Riv (DM)]: Do I have the greatsword?
42:51.458 --> 42:52.580
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, greatsword on your back.
42:53.521 --> 42:58.787
[JC (Ryo)]: Well, seeing as how the sword's not in his hand and he's walked away from it, I'll try and take the greatsword off him.
42:58.902 --> 42:59.763
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, cool.
43:00.364 --> 43:06.995
[Riv (DM)]: He's incapacitated, so as an action you can easily just pull it from the sheath and you can take his greatsword.
43:07.015 --> 43:07.275
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
43:07.495 --> 43:08.858
[JC (Ryo)]: And then I'll take two steps away from him.
43:09.559 --> 43:11.081
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
43:12.884 --> 43:13.845
[Riv (DM)]: Erendor's gonna look around.
43:15.087 --> 43:15.488
[Unmatched Speaker]: Let's see.
43:19.194 --> 43:21.337
[Riv (DM)]: He's gonna say, alright guys, what's the plan here?
43:21.357 --> 43:26.445
[Riv (DM)]: Do we need to get him away from, I don't know, what do you reckon?
43:28.400 --> 43:30.623
[Lacer (Kai)]: I don't know, is he possessed or anything?
43:30.643 --> 43:31.525
[Lacer (Kai)]: I have no idea.
43:31.565 --> 43:34.890
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Maybe he needs the bones?
43:37.093 --> 43:37.574
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: What's the...
43:37.594 --> 43:37.994
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I don't know.
43:39.236 --> 43:39.997
[Lacer (Kai)]: Or is it the locket?
43:40.138 --> 43:43.282
[Lacer (Kai)]: Because remember, Val was the first one to touch the locket.
43:44.504 --> 43:44.644
[Lacer (Kai)]: Who?
43:45.966 --> 43:46.727
[Riv (DM)]: The locket's over here.
43:47.549 --> 43:51.475
[Riv (DM)]: On the ground, by the way.
43:51.495 --> 43:51.775
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
43:53.662 --> 43:55.404
[Riv (DM)]: Iryndor is helpless in this situation.
43:55.424 --> 43:58.648
[Riv (DM)]: He doesn't know weird possessions or magic.
44:00.390 --> 44:02.573
[Riv (DM)]: Dondar, it's your go.
44:02.853 --> 44:06.278
[Riv (DM)]: You can use an action to continue the charm if you want, or you can do something else.
44:08.300 --> 44:10.463
[Riv (DM)]: Can I attempt to destroy the locket?
44:11.764 --> 44:18.673
[Riv (DM)]: I think you would have to move out of range and so the charm would break, but yeah, you can totally do that if you want.
44:20.695 --> 44:24.243
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I don't know anything about this magic world.
44:25.065 --> 44:26.008
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: It's a Harry Potter thing.
44:29.155 --> 44:34.227
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I mean, what do you guys think?
44:34.508 --> 44:38.738
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Do we discuss things during a combat phase?
44:39.815 --> 44:43.702
[Riv (DM)]: Generally, you can use a free action to call something out.
44:44.023 --> 44:45.706
[Riv (DM)]: You wouldn't be allowed to have like a big back and forth.
44:46.247 --> 44:55.605
[Riv (DM)]: I'll sort of allow it here because it's a little bit, you know, it's not technically a combat, so you can have a quick conversation if you want.
44:56.627 --> 44:57.469
[Riv (DM)]: Well, yeah, just...
44:58.917 --> 44:59.938
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: We destroy the locket?
45:02.501 --> 45:03.562
[Lacer (Kai)]: That's not a good idea.
45:03.802 --> 45:04.723
[Lacer (Kai)]: Actually, hold him first.
45:04.763 --> 45:10.430
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll put Valorant to sleep and we'll carry him out or get him to a safe space so he can recover.
45:10.650 --> 45:16.656
[Lacer (Kai)]: And we need to check up on Lady as well that we found in this cave system.
45:17.537 --> 45:23.764
[Lacer (Kai)]: Not quite sure if it's safe or anything, but as long as we can lock him out, he should be okay.
45:24.925 --> 45:27.208
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I'll continue Hypnotic Gaze then.
45:27.228 --> 45:27.388
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
45:28.668 --> 45:31.573
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, I like to cast Sleep.
45:31.874 --> 45:35.681
[Lacer (Kai)]: Since he has very low health, he should be able to get knocked out very easily.
45:35.721 --> 45:38.647
[Lacer (Kai)]: Let's see, where's my Sleep spell?
45:49.146 --> 45:49.727
[Lacer (Kai)]: Uh, okay.
45:49.847 --> 45:50.368
[Lacer (Kai)]: That's fine.
45:50.429 --> 45:51.250
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll do it there.
45:58.942 --> 45:59.964
[Riv (DM)]: Creatures you choose.
46:00.044 --> 46:00.725
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, cool.
46:00.745 --> 46:02.487
[Riv (DM)]: So you can pick him specifically.
46:02.507 --> 46:04.190
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, I'm choosing, yeah, just Vael.
46:05.031 --> 46:13.063
[Riv (DM)]: It should just work automatically, but feel free to roll the damage if you want.
46:13.083 --> 46:13.464
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, cool.
46:14.946 --> 46:21.075
[Riv (DM)]: So while Dondar is leaning over Vael, release your magic and Vaelran just limps to the ground.
46:22.758 --> 46:23.459
[Riv (DM)]: Breathing heavily.
46:24.661 --> 46:25.422
[Riv (DM)]: I'm conscious again.
46:27.545 --> 46:29.908
[Lacer (Kai)]: Is sleep unconscious?
46:31.630 --> 46:31.910
[Riv (DM)]: Kind of.
46:31.930 --> 46:33.252
[Riv (DM)]: It's the same idea.
46:33.372 --> 46:37.096
[Riv (DM)]: It's the same status would apply to it, but he doesn't have to make death saving throws.
46:38.297 --> 46:41.761
[Riv (DM)]: Valeran, as the magic washes over you, another vision comes to your mind.
46:41.802 --> 46:49.771
[Riv (DM)]: There's a woman or some figure running in front of you, just too far away from reach, constantly, no matter how fast you try and chase after her.
46:50.231 --> 46:51.713
[Riv (DM)]: Someone you care about.
46:51.693 --> 46:58.881
[Riv (DM)]: All of a sudden this big black cloak comes from the side and envelops her, completely blocking this person from view.
46:59.401 --> 47:07.950
[Riv (DM)]: The figure and the black cloak sort of stiffen and you hear a scream that fades away into the distance and then everything goes black.
47:07.970 --> 47:10.573
[Riv (DM)]: All right.
47:10.593 --> 47:12.195
[Riv (DM)]: So while veteran sleeps, what are the rest of you doing?
47:15.098 --> 47:18.882
[Lacer (Kai)]: I would like to check the...
47:19.165 --> 47:22.488
[Lacer (Kai)]: I want to check Valoran to see if he's okay.
47:23.169 --> 47:29.355
[Lacer (Kai)]: Like, any visual signs of his, like... Because he's not acting himself, which was really strange.
47:30.897 --> 47:31.637
[Riv (DM)]: Sure.
47:31.838 --> 47:34.120
[Riv (DM)]: Would you like to roll... What are you looking for?
47:34.140 --> 47:37.523
[Riv (DM)]: Are you looking for medical damage, or...?
47:37.603 --> 47:43.229
[Lacer (Kai)]: Not medical, but, like, normal, like, health in such a way.
47:43.289 --> 47:46.472
[Lacer (Kai)]: Like, sort of, like, abnormalities to, like,
47:47.515 --> 47:52.684
[Lacer (Kai)]: Skin, I wanna like open his eyes, see if his eyes are...
47:52.704 --> 47:52.884
[Lacer (Kai)]: Eye?
47:53.164 --> 47:54.066
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, singular eye.
47:55.348 --> 47:57.532
[Riv (DM)]: This probably would be a medicine check, so yeah, feel free to roll it.
48:06.426 --> 48:07.388
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Alright.
48:08.149 --> 48:11.194
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: How long have we been, how many days has it been since we came off the ship?
48:13.823 --> 48:19.952
[Riv (DM)]: It's been probably a week and a half, maybe nearly two weeks, I would say.
48:20.252 --> 48:21.694
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, about two weeks.
48:22.395 --> 48:24.378
[Riv (DM)]: I could tell you exactly after the session if you want.
48:24.478 --> 48:25.800
[Riv (DM)]: I've been roughly plotting.
48:27.803 --> 48:32.950
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Just thinking in terms of the medicine check, how badly bruised I would still be.
48:32.990 --> 48:34.532
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Probably
48:35.187 --> 48:36.569
[Riv (DM)]: Probably still green.
48:37.711 --> 48:45.962
[Riv (DM)]: He's got a few fresher scratches on him that he received in the most recent fight from the fights of the Ghost and their claws.
48:46.643 --> 48:49.868
[Riv (DM)]: There are some patches of black skin that don't look very healthy.
48:50.349 --> 48:56.217
[Riv (DM)]: I think Rio has a similar sort of thing where the Ghost drained energy from him.
48:56.197 --> 49:02.905
[Riv (DM)]: Still got some really, really old damage to his body, which you just recognise from after travelling with him for a while.
49:03.526 --> 49:11.016
[Riv (DM)]: But there doesn't really seem to be anything specific that stands out to you that would be potentially causing this sort of change of behaviour.
49:12.397 --> 49:17.184
[Riv (DM)]: He seems pretty healthy, other than the, you know, physical damage.
49:19.066 --> 49:19.426
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright.
49:22.711 --> 49:23.892
[Lacer (Kai)]: I look around to...
49:25.525 --> 49:28.639
[Lacer (Kai)]: The Erendor.
49:29.884 --> 49:33.420
[Lacer (Kai)]: And ask, um, you called out to restrain him.
49:33.460 --> 49:35.147
[Lacer (Kai)]: Do you know anything about this?
49:37.237 --> 49:38.118
[Riv (DM)]: I wouldn't have a clue.
49:38.920 --> 49:42.405
[Riv (DM)]: I just didn't want him to hurt himself or any of us.
49:42.545 --> 49:43.567
[Riv (DM)]: It seemed like the best idea.
49:44.568 --> 49:53.723
[Lacer (Kai)]: I guess if he wakes up while we're transporting, maybe it's best if we kind of like tie his hands together, at least, so he wouldn't hurt any of us or hurt himself.
49:54.684 --> 49:55.065
[Lacer (Kai)]: Agreed.
49:55.085 --> 49:56.727
[Lacer (Kai)]: In case he has an episode or something.
49:57.549 --> 49:57.709
[Riv (DM)]: Yep.
49:58.263 --> 50:09.996
[Riv (DM)]: I've got some rope in my pack and Erendor will reach into his inventory and pull out his rope and go ahead and start tying up Valoran's arms and feet behind him.
50:16.323 --> 50:21.409
[Lacer (Kai)]: After that, I want to call out, I just want to call that into the cavern and just go, Teresa?
50:21.910 --> 50:22.330
[Lacer (Kai)]: Teresa?
50:25.214 --> 50:25.654
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yes?
50:27.592 --> 50:29.037
[Lacer (Kai)]: Are you okay?
50:30.844 --> 50:31.687
[Lacer (Kai)]: What were those things?
50:33.935 --> 50:36.865
[Lacer (Kai)]: I think there were some ghosts or something.
50:38.230 --> 50:39.053
[Lacer (Kai)]: Are they all gone now?
50:41.412 --> 50:43.295
[Lacer (Kai)]: For now, for now, yes.
50:44.157 --> 50:47.422
[Lacer (Kai)]: Do you want to come up and see us?
50:47.483 --> 50:52.071
[Lacer (Kai)]: We were sent by your husband down at Camaar.
50:52.151 --> 50:54.775
[Lacer (Kai)]: He was very worried, so we came looking for you.
50:55.637 --> 51:01.547
[Lacer (Kai)]: Just happened to stumble upon this hole in the ground and we were attacked.
51:02.050 --> 51:02.871
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, Thane sent you?
51:03.252 --> 51:04.815
[Riv (DM)]: I'd hoped he would.
51:05.716 --> 51:06.077
[Riv (DM)]: I'll try.
51:06.117 --> 51:07.600
[Riv (DM)]: I'm feeling pretty weak.
51:08.802 --> 51:13.610
[Riv (DM)]: You can see she stands up from the side of the cave, tries to push herself up, but she sort of collapses.
51:13.791 --> 51:21.144
[Riv (DM)]: She looks like probably been down here for a day or two, starving and just surviving on water and rations.
51:22.807 --> 51:24.109
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, she's not in the best shape.
51:30.502 --> 51:34.786
[Riv (DM)]: But she starts slowly trying to make her way over to you, keeping her hand on the rock wall as she wanders over.
51:35.286 --> 51:37.588
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, and you can see her now a bit better.
51:38.329 --> 51:47.277
[Riv (DM)]: She also has these sort of tears of blood coming from her eyes and ears as she was also inflicted by the stream.
51:48.739 --> 51:58.888
[Riv (DM)]: But very, very small frame, long black hair that reaches down to, you know, pretty much to her lower back, white skin, big green eyes.
52:01.670 --> 52:04.393
[Lacer (Kai)]: Uh, it's also a good... Oh yeah, go ahead, go ahead.
52:04.413 --> 52:05.694
[JC (Ryo)]: Actually, stop, stop.
52:05.714 --> 52:21.491
[JC (Ryo)]: Uh, Riv, seeing as how Favoured Enemy Humans I have advantage in remembering, uh, the advantage on wisdom to track and intelligence to recall information about them, did you just say green eyes?
52:22.552 --> 52:26.216
[Riv (DM)]: I think so, yeah.
52:26.256 --> 52:31.221
[JC (Ryo)]: Okay, going off my notes, that's brown eyes, so... Oh, let me go and have a look.
52:32.804 --> 52:33.945
[Riv (DM)]: I totally could have just said it wrong.
52:34.125 --> 52:35.026
[Riv (DM)]: Oh yeah, brown eyes, sorry.
52:35.106 --> 52:36.608
[Riv (DM)]: I was looking at the NPC below.
52:37.970 --> 52:40.793
[Riv (DM)]: Okay, well I was going to say... Short, long black hair, kind brown eyes.
52:41.093 --> 52:41.774
[JC (Ryo)]: Demon alert!
52:43.175 --> 52:51.945
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, I want to just go off my memory and just make sure that this is actually, you know, that matches the description that we were given to by the hubby.
52:51.965 --> 52:52.866
[Riv (DM)]: Nah dude, you're totally good.
52:53.046 --> 52:54.407
[Riv (DM)]: You called me out and I was wrong.
52:55.388 --> 52:56.470
[Riv (DM)]: Thanks for checking on it.
52:56.490 --> 53:01.495
[Riv (DM)]: You're right, it is not a different woman trying to get you.
53:04.006 --> 53:08.913
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, I just got a big list, a big page, and I was just looking at the bullet points and I just went on to glance over and I saw the green one.
53:08.933 --> 53:11.297
[JC (Ryo)]: I don't know, you're right.
53:11.317 --> 53:14.121
[JC (Ryo)]: I was just waiting for it to be... Yeah.
53:14.141 --> 53:14.842
[JC (Ryo)]: To not be her.
53:15.003 --> 53:16.144
[JC (Ryo)]: Ghost burst out and...
53:17.807 --> 53:18.267
[JC (Ryo)]: Someone else.
53:18.408 --> 53:19.429
[Riv (DM)]: It definitely looks like her.
53:19.449 --> 53:20.931
[Riv (DM)]: It was the description that was provided to you.
53:21.172 --> 53:21.753
[Riv (DM)]: Seems to match.
53:22.654 --> 53:24.096
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
53:24.116 --> 53:24.837
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, I like your notes.
53:25.158 --> 53:25.538
[Riv (DM)]: It's good.
53:25.558 --> 53:26.159
[Riv (DM)]: Keep me honest.
53:27.581 --> 53:31.868
[JC (Ryo)]: Oh, I could also roll an Intelligence at advantage to see if I remember right.
53:31.888 --> 53:31.988
Yeah.
53:33.892 --> 53:44.931
[Lacer (Kai)]: Um, do you two wanna go and check out on Theresa and see... see how she's doing while I go over Valoran's body?
53:44.951 --> 53:55.950
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, I'll walk over to her and help her if she needs it.
53:57.432 --> 53:57.672
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
53:58.273 --> 54:01.097
[Riv (DM)]: I would just... Kai, you would know this since you're familiar with the spell.
54:01.257 --> 54:02.679
[Riv (DM)]: The sleep spell lasts for a minute.
54:04.100 --> 54:04.241
[Riv (DM)]: Mm-hmm.
54:04.261 --> 54:06.163
[Riv (DM)]: So it's probably been half of that.
54:07.344 --> 54:08.246
[Lacer (Kai)]: Okay, it's been half a minute.
54:08.406 --> 54:08.967
[Lacer (Kai)]: Okay, so...
54:11.610 --> 54:12.731
[Lacer (Kai)]: I go to everybody.
54:13.152 --> 54:14.974
[Lacer (Kai)]: Vael will wake up very soon.
54:15.014 --> 54:21.062
[Lacer (Kai)]: He might do something stupid, but if he does, I will...
54:21.082 --> 54:22.624
[Lacer (Kai)]: I will grapple him.
54:22.784 --> 54:23.625
[Lacer (Kai)]: That's what I'll do.
54:24.247 --> 54:24.608
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
54:24.628 --> 54:25.629
[Riv (DM)]: So, I mean, he's tied up.
54:25.769 --> 54:28.573
[Riv (DM)]: Are you just sort of going to hold him or... Yeah, yeah.
54:28.593 --> 54:29.695
[Riv (DM)]: ...carry between him or something?
54:30.396 --> 54:30.757
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
54:32.539 --> 54:32.720
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
54:32.840 --> 54:33.381
[Riv (DM)]: And Theresa?
54:35.163 --> 54:39.650
[Riv (DM)]: She looks like she needs an arm, basically, to support her out of here, but she's okay otherwise.
54:40.832 --> 54:41.332
[Riv (DM)]: Just very weak.
54:43.576 --> 54:46.961
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: How do we get out of here?
54:46.981 --> 54:48.002
[Lacer (Kai)]: Probably the way we came.
54:48.283 --> 54:50.406
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'd like to ask...
54:52.057 --> 55:05.956
[Lacer (Kai)]: Erendor to use his mage hand to put the amulet or necklace in with the bones in the bag without touching it, carrying.
55:07.158 --> 55:09.841
[Riv (DM)]: Erendor nods at you and clicks his finger, holds out his hand.
55:10.202 --> 55:16.571
[Riv (DM)]: It becomes silvery and that familiar hand now flies out, picks up the locker from the ground and just deposits it in the bag.
55:18.694 --> 55:20.556
[Unmatched Speaker]: Alright, I'll just add that to my inventory.
55:20.596 --> 55:21.237
[Unmatched Speaker]: A bag of
55:22.617 --> 55:25.616
[Unmatched Speaker]: It would be a silver locket.
55:26.844 --> 55:28.695
[Unmatched Speaker]: With the bones, right?
55:35.982 --> 55:37.384
[Riv (DM)]: Okay, are we moving?
55:37.424 --> 55:37.925
[Riv (DM)]: What are we doing?
55:37.945 --> 55:39.967
[Riv (DM)]: So I guess I'll just quickly describe that.
55:40.007 --> 55:45.094
[Riv (DM)]: So up above the cave in the roof there's the same hole that you came down from.
55:45.574 --> 55:49.680
[Riv (DM)]: I think you'd used the rope, so the rope will still be there dangling.
55:50.200 --> 56:00.213
[Riv (DM)]: And then at the back of the cave there is another entrance which sort of snakes its way into the darkness somewhere which you haven't been yet.
56:00.233 --> 56:03.137
[Riv (DM)]: I'll give you all like an action and then Valoran will be waking up.
56:07.353 --> 56:15.103
[JC (Ryo)]: I look at Kai and go well we can't go back the way we came with him asleep and this one barely able to move.
56:15.123 --> 56:18.407
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm gonna wait till Val wakes up and see what happens.
56:18.467 --> 56:35.048
[Lacer (Kai)]: Do you want to bring Theresa over and we'll once we'll see what happens when Valoran wakes up and then we'll see if we slowly proceed down the cave because it's going to be difficult to if Valoran is like no.
56:36.817 --> 56:39.039
[Lacer (Kai)]: Fighting us still, it's going to be difficult.
56:39.099 --> 56:39.419
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah.
56:46.566 --> 56:46.866
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
56:48.207 --> 56:49.469
[Riv (DM)]: So you go the round anticipating.
56:50.309 --> 56:50.530
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah.
56:50.570 --> 56:58.117
[Lacer (Kai)]: Well, actually, while that's happening, I can give Theresa a good berry I crafted from the day before since they last 24 hours.
56:59.037 --> 57:00.519
[Riv (DM)]: She takes it gratefully and starts eating it.
57:01.760 --> 57:03.381
[Riv (DM)]: And you can see a bit of strength returning to her.
57:04.903 --> 57:05.203
[Riv (DM)]: All right.
57:06.652 --> 57:13.102
[Riv (DM)]: You feel a bit of motion squirming between your arms as you're carrying the bound body of Valoran as he starts to wake up.
57:15.165 --> 57:19.211
[Riv (DM)]: First thing you see, Valoran, is blackness.
57:20.313 --> 57:23.698
[Riv (DM)]: Even though you're sure your eyes are open, just a black void.
57:24.067 --> 57:29.578
[Riv (DM)]: And a now very familiar slender white hand is reaching towards you from the darkness.
57:30.399 --> 57:45.028
[Riv (DM)]: Purple orb clutched, long fingernails, sort of sparkles of light energy radiating, glowing from it, pulsing towards you, getting closer and closer until your whole vision just goes white and your eyes properly snap open.
57:45.008 --> 57:50.176
[Riv (DM)]: And you look around and you see the rest of the Bloody Nails, the friends and companions.
57:51.258 --> 57:55.144
[Riv (DM)]: And you do have memory of fighting them before, but you have got no idea why.
57:58.970 --> 58:00.633
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: What the?
58:00.653 --> 58:01.174
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Fuck me.
58:02.175 --> 58:04.459
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Okay, that must have hit me harder than I realized.
58:06.422 --> 58:08.105
[Lacer (Kai)]: What the hell just happened, Valeran?
58:08.706 --> 58:11.370
[Lacer (Kai)]: You went off the rocker for a moment.
58:12.397 --> 58:14.680
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I have no fucking idea.
58:14.700 --> 58:16.862
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: It seems to be par for the course lately.
58:20.427 --> 58:24.271
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, maybe we need to have a chat after we get out of this wretched place.
58:25.613 --> 58:28.717
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Maybe I need to get a bloody helmet on my head so I don't get smacked so bloody hard.
58:32.461 --> 58:36.486
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I was going to suggest we test him, but it seems... Are you back?
58:36.586 --> 58:38.809
[Lacer (Kai)]: Are you you?
58:39.143 --> 58:41.246
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Don't know if I know how to be anyone else?
58:41.827 --> 58:55.486
[Lacer (Kai)]: Well, I guess... We weren't un- we were unsure that when you woke up you may be still in that state, so we had to tie your hands up together so that you wouldn't hurt us or yourself.
58:56.588 --> 58:58.851
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That's a- that's a perfectly smart call.
59:01.915 --> 59:02.336
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Alright.
59:02.356 --> 59:05.841
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That said, it is gonna make it a bit hard to climb out of here with me hands tied.
59:07.463 --> 59:08.745
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Alright, Erendor.
59:09.788 --> 59:10.850
[Riv (DM)]: Erendor will untie.
59:11.190 --> 59:15.817
[Riv (DM)]: He pulls out his dagger almost instinctually, going to cut it, but then realizes, wait, this isn't my rope.
59:15.977 --> 59:16.858
[Riv (DM)]: He puts his dagger away.
59:17.960 --> 59:18.681
[Riv (DM)]: Starts untying it.
59:20.663 --> 59:21.144
[Riv (DM)]: And you're free.
59:24.529 --> 59:27.393
[Lacer (Kai)]: So it looks like Val seemed generally okay.
59:27.413 --> 59:34.323
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'd like to also do a health check on Theresa after she has consumed the Goodberry.
59:35.444 --> 59:36.065
[Lacer (Kai)]: Cool.
59:36.085 --> 59:38.749
[Lacer (Kai)]: See if she has any broken arms or broken legs or anything.
59:39.353 --> 59:43.626
[Riv (DM)]: Sure, um... Yep, just roll another medicine check then.
59:47.690 --> 59:48.511
[Riv (DM)]: That's a pretty easy one.
59:49.211 --> 59:50.092
[Riv (DM)]: Oh yeah, same roll.
59:51.513 --> 59:54.656
[Riv (DM)]: She doesn't seem to have any proper physical damage to her.
59:55.096 --> 59:59.580
[Riv (DM)]: It seems she's stumbled, but she landed okay, so maybe a little graze on one of the legs.
01:00:00.021 --> 01:00:02.863
[Riv (DM)]: But she hasn't got any broken bones, she hasn't had any permanent damage.
01:00:02.883 --> 01:00:06.466
[Riv (DM)]: It doesn't seem like the ghosts came after her and actually harmed her.
01:00:06.607 --> 01:00:12.091
[Riv (DM)]: She's just extremely weak, she hasn't eaten for a couple of days, and her water canteen is empty.
01:00:12.312 --> 01:00:17.376
[Riv (DM)]: So she's probably had a day left to live, essentially.
01:00:17.356 --> 01:00:21.563
[Riv (DM)]: You got her, and she's looking much better after having the good berry.
01:00:22.885 --> 01:00:27.893
[Riv (DM)]: I suppose they've got a very good boost in energy and nutrition or whatever.
01:00:28.834 --> 01:00:29.155
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah.
01:00:29.996 --> 01:00:32.420
[Lacer (Kai)]: Cool, cool, cool.
01:00:32.460 --> 01:00:39.111
[Lacer (Kai)]: While I'm checking her up once over, I'd like to ask, how did you come to this location, Teresa?
01:00:40.610 --> 01:00:47.802
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, well, I mean, I come out here every couple of weeks just to look for ingredients to restock the alchemy store, but
01:00:49.013 --> 01:00:52.660
[Riv (DM)]: This time, I guess I wandered a bit further than I normally did.
01:00:54.643 --> 01:01:00.674
[Riv (DM)]: And I started hearing strange sounds and it might have just been my imagination, but I was sure that I saw...
01:01:01.495 --> 01:01:01.796
[Riv (DM)]: I don't know.
01:01:02.517 --> 01:01:03.479
[Riv (DM)]: I don't even really know what to call them.
01:01:03.499 --> 01:01:03.880
[Riv (DM)]: Spirits?
01:01:03.920 --> 01:01:04.300
[Riv (DM)]: Ghosts?
01:01:04.381 --> 01:01:05.523
[Riv (DM)]: Are they even real things?
01:01:07.045 --> 01:01:08.488
[Riv (DM)]: They are very real.
01:01:08.688 --> 01:01:09.911
[Riv (DM)]: We just...
01:01:09.931 --> 01:01:10.752
[Riv (DM)]: Apparently.
01:01:11.913 --> 01:01:23.632
[Riv (DM)]: And yeah, I got spooked and I heard some sounds behind me and just started running and running and I clambered up some rocks and then all I knew was I was slipping and falling and I was like, yeah, there's no way I could get out.
01:01:24.273 --> 01:01:31.965
[Riv (DM)]: This tunnel here, and she points to the cave entrance at the back, if you go down there, it's just blocked off.
01:01:32.886 --> 01:01:39.557
[Riv (DM)]: I wasn't strong enough to move any of the rocks to get out that way, so I just sat and prayed that someone would come find me.
01:01:41.950 --> 01:01:44.573
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, I guess today is your lucky day.
01:01:44.593 --> 01:01:51.462
[Riv (DM)]: I will be eternally grateful for this.
01:01:51.722 --> 01:02:04.718
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, while you're here, with your knowledge of herbs, do they grow herbs down here by any chance, or can we find herbs that are kind of rarer, since this is a very odd location?
01:02:06.453 --> 01:02:10.359
[Riv (DM)]: She kind of looks around the cave.
01:02:11.080 --> 01:02:16.409
[Riv (DM)]: I mean, there are a few, like, mushrooms and roots and stuff like that in this cave.
01:02:16.789 --> 01:02:17.951
[Riv (DM)]: I've already checked them out, trust me.
01:02:19.053 --> 01:02:23.099
[Riv (DM)]: The red ones, they're poisonous, so I wouldn't use those if I were you.
01:02:23.280 --> 01:02:24.642
[Riv (DM)]: And the roots are just normal tree roots.
01:02:26.164 --> 01:02:27.406
[Riv (DM)]: Nothing useful here, unfortunately.
01:02:27.706 --> 01:02:29.109
[Lacer (Kai)]: I hint Erendor, you hear that?
01:02:29.349 --> 01:02:32.153
[Lacer (Kai)]: Poisonous mushrooms.
01:02:32.174 --> 01:02:33.135
[Lacer (Kai)]: Rose's eyes at you.
01:02:34.887 --> 01:02:36.489
[Riv (DM)]: You calling me an assassin, Kai?
01:02:37.090 --> 01:02:40.514
[Lacer (Kai)]: No, no, I'm saying they could be of use later on, you know?
01:02:40.554 --> 01:02:44.219
[Lacer (Kai)]: Like, it's always good to have some extra stuff.
01:02:44.379 --> 01:02:49.386
[Lacer (Kai)]: Actually, can I go harvest some poison mushies now that she's identified them for us?
01:02:50.147 --> 01:02:50.848
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, you can grab a bunch.
01:02:50.868 --> 01:02:52.450
[Riv (DM)]: How many do you want to take?
01:02:52.470 --> 01:02:53.431
[Lacer (Kai)]: Maybe like ten?
01:02:53.751 --> 01:02:54.633
[Riv (DM)]: Put ten in a bag?
01:02:55.374 --> 01:02:55.714
[Riv (DM)]: Go for it.
01:02:57.989 --> 01:03:01.855
[Riv (DM)]: You can add team, they'll be the red flytrap mushrooms I think, right?
01:03:01.875 --> 01:03:04.459
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, I don't know what they are but...
01:03:04.479 --> 01:03:07.704
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm just saying red poisonous mushrooms.
01:03:07.724 --> 01:03:09.767
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll need to get them ID'd later, I want to learn it.
01:03:12.891 --> 01:03:13.172
[Lacer (Kai)]: All good.
01:03:13.953 --> 01:03:15.736
[Lacer (Kai)]: I look around to the, um, to the group.
01:03:16.537 --> 01:03:18.540
[Lacer (Kai)]: Anyone want to take a point?
01:03:19.301 --> 01:03:20.723
[Lacer (Kai)]: What are we doing from here?
01:03:26.356 --> 01:03:28.279
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Well, we need to find some way out of here.
01:03:31.844 --> 01:03:34.187
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: We can't go that way, we need to go back out the way we came in.
01:03:35.309 --> 01:03:36.811
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Ropes should still be dangling.
01:03:42.338 --> 01:03:45.803
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Does our friend seem well enough to climb the rope?
01:03:45.823 --> 01:03:46.845
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Well, we could pull her up.
01:03:52.593 --> 01:03:53.494
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I think.
01:03:57.254 --> 01:03:59.817
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I think we could just climb out.
01:04:05.142 --> 01:04:05.803
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, no problem.
01:04:06.204 --> 01:04:13.051
[Riv (DM)]: I think with the rope, I think what you don't even have to make an athletics check or is it you make athletics with advantage?
01:04:13.271 --> 01:04:13.832
[Riv (DM)]: I can't remember.
01:04:14.533 --> 01:04:16.835
[Lacer (Kai)]: I think it's athletics with advantage.
01:04:17.035 --> 01:04:17.316
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah.
01:04:17.856 --> 01:04:19.418
[Lacer (Kai)]: Since it's a magic rope.
01:04:20.559 --> 01:04:20.779
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
01:04:22.681 --> 01:04:23.262
[Lacer (Kai)]: Let me just...
01:04:26.144 --> 01:04:27.126
[Riv (DM)]: Check the rope.
01:04:27.707 --> 01:04:28.368
[Riv (DM)]: What does it say?
01:04:29.790 --> 01:04:31.634
[Riv (DM)]: Why do you all make advice?
01:04:38.786 --> 01:04:47.922
[Lacer (Kai)]: Like, worst case, we can climb up and then someone can lash the rope around, um, magically lash it around Theresa and then we'll haul her up to a bus.
01:04:50.186 --> 01:04:51.308
[JC (Ryo)]: That is a fine word.
01:04:53.465 --> 01:04:56.069
[Riv (DM)]: Yep, I think we don't need to necessarily roleplay this.
01:04:56.089 --> 01:05:04.021
[Riv (DM)]: You've got a rope of climbing and you've got plenty of time so we can say that you spend a bit of time and climb up.
01:05:04.201 --> 01:05:08.968
[Riv (DM)]: You can figure out a way to lash it around Teresa's waist and pull her up behind you.
01:05:10.010 --> 01:05:13.936
[Riv (DM)]: And yeah, and you find yourself up on top of the crag now.
01:05:14.757 --> 01:05:16.840
[Riv (DM)]: Wind is still blowing, still misty and foggy.
01:05:18.811 --> 01:05:21.334
[Riv (DM)]: Time is probably a bit before midday.
01:05:23.297 --> 01:05:27.442
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, probably sort of mid-morning-ish since you'd left quite early in the morning and only travelled for a couple of hours.
01:05:32.027 --> 01:05:37.354
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Should probably set course back to the village and punch on before it gets worse in the weather.
01:05:38.776 --> 01:05:39.016
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Cool.
01:05:40.858 --> 01:05:41.719
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright.
01:05:43.922 --> 01:05:44.523
[Lacer (Kai)]: Okay, cool.
01:05:44.623 --> 01:05:45.564
[Lacer (Kai)]: Can I...
01:05:45.925 --> 01:05:47.907
[Lacer (Kai)]: Since Theresa's a little lady, right?
01:05:48.967 --> 01:05:50.530
[Lacer (Kai)]: Just from your perspective.
01:05:50.751 --> 01:05:55.701
[Lacer (Kai)]: Not like a halfling or a gnome, but yeah.
01:05:55.761 --> 01:06:02.655
[Lacer (Kai)]: On the shorter side, you reckon I could transform into a panther and carry it on my back and then smell our way back since
01:06:03.142 --> 01:06:04.004
[Lacer (Kai)]: I've got Keen Smell.
01:06:04.244 --> 01:06:05.046
[Lacer (Kai)]: Make it faster.
01:06:05.146 --> 01:06:05.487
[Lacer (Kai)]: Travel.
01:06:05.808 --> 01:06:08.053
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, you could totally do that if you want.
01:06:08.093 --> 01:06:08.654
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll do that.
01:06:08.755 --> 01:06:11.000
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
01:06:11.340 --> 01:06:15.590
[Riv (DM)]: The wild shape will last for an hour, so you guys better book it if you want to try and make it in time.
01:06:15.650 --> 01:06:16.893
[Riv (DM)]: I guess you could burn another wild shape.
01:06:17.895 --> 01:06:21.002
[Lacer (Kai)]: I've only got the one because I used it for Chalice.
01:06:21.423 --> 01:06:22.365
[Riv (DM)]: I've only got two a day.
01:06:23.560 --> 01:06:24.422
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, cool.
01:06:24.522 --> 01:06:27.548
[Riv (DM)]: It'll take a bit over an hour if you guys are all booking it at a fast pace.
01:06:28.489 --> 01:06:42.075
[Riv (DM)]: Teresa will point the way for you because she's pretty familiar with these woods so you won't need to make nature checks and Rio as well being very comfortable in the woods will remember the way back so about an hour and a half goes by and you can beeline it for the town.
01:06:42.680 --> 01:06:44.222
[Riv (DM)]: There are a few people wandering around outside.
01:06:44.282 --> 01:06:49.550
[Riv (DM)]: The fog is sort of still pouring down over the mountains and just blowing gently through.
01:06:50.151 --> 01:06:54.758
[Riv (DM)]: The village looks very kind of, kind of like cozy and inviting, I suppose.
01:06:54.778 --> 01:06:58.824
[Riv (DM)]: It's like a little hideaway in the middle of this like desolate mountainous terrain.
01:07:00.165 --> 01:07:00.346
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
01:07:01.107 --> 01:07:08.097
[Riv (DM)]: So what do you want to do in the village?
01:07:10.456 --> 01:07:12.298
[Lacer (Kai)]: I think everyone should get cleaned up.
01:07:13.179 --> 01:07:23.308
[Lacer (Kai)]: Cleaned up after that because we literally just fought some ghosts, booked it out of a cave and ran all the way back to town.
01:07:23.328 --> 01:07:31.256
[Lacer (Kai)]: I think we need, I think we need a break and I think I need to patch up, help patch up Valoran.
01:07:31.336 --> 01:07:32.357
[Lacer (Kai)]: He seems pretty battered.
01:07:34.319 --> 01:07:34.539
[Lacer (Kai)]: Cool.
01:07:34.559 --> 01:07:38.583
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: So do you guys want to take a... Yeah, could we find Valoran?
01:07:38.603 --> 01:07:39.264
[Riv (DM)]: Sorry, you carry on.
01:07:39.304 --> 01:07:39.484
[Riv (DM)]: Sorry.
01:07:40.983 --> 01:07:47.952
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Could we find Valoran a priest or a cleric to address his condition?
01:07:51.196 --> 01:07:52.378
[Lacer (Kai)]: Is that an option in this town?
01:07:53.159 --> 01:07:54.781
[Lacer (Kai)]: Let's take a rest.
01:07:54.821 --> 01:08:07.096
[Lacer (Kai)]: Let's go back to the hotel and rest up a bit and then we'll discuss at late lunch or something like that.
01:08:07.116 --> 01:08:07.317
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
01:08:07.517 --> 01:08:08.458
[Lacer (Kai)]: You had me at lunch.
01:08:10.649 --> 01:08:14.449
[Riv (DM)]: So yeah, you'll probably be arriving back at town mid-day-ish.
01:08:14.716 --> 01:08:23.288
[Riv (DM)]: Again, you can head to the Redleaf Inn, the same warm, cosy interior that you had seen and stayed at the night before.
01:08:24.770 --> 01:08:39.311
[Riv (DM)]: You don't see the man, the Damund, the guy you had met, who sort of runs the back end of the tavern, but Ania, the woman who is at the bar, she's there, she's wandering around and serving the old customer who's in the thing at the moment.
01:08:39.792 --> 01:08:41.955
[Riv (DM)]: Would you like to take a short rest now, spend an hour?
01:08:43.927 --> 01:08:45.228
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, I think it'd be good.
01:08:45.468 --> 01:08:46.109
[Lacer (Kai)]: I think it'd be good.
01:08:46.349 --> 01:08:47.190
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm pretty spent.
01:08:47.670 --> 01:08:49.332
[Lacer (Kai)]: All my spell slots are set for 1.
01:08:49.973 --> 01:08:51.154
[Lacer (Kai)]: Level 2 slot is burnt.
01:08:51.994 --> 01:08:52.215
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
01:08:52.235 --> 01:09:06.227
[Riv (DM)]: So yeah, just... Short rest won't get your spell slots back, so make sure you click the right one, because it wouldn't be a long rest here, unless you want a day, but... Yep, feel free to click short rest and you can do your hit dice to regenerate your health.
01:09:09.911 --> 01:09:12.313
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Sorry, how long are we resting here?
01:09:14.605 --> 01:09:17.869
[Riv (DM)]: A, um, so short rest will be one hour.
01:09:20.092 --> 01:09:21.313
[Unmatched Speaker]: How many hit dice can you roll?
01:09:23.556 --> 01:09:26.539
[Riv (DM)]: You can roll as many as you've got available for your class.
01:09:26.559 --> 01:09:29.523
[Riv (DM)]: If you click the short rest thing it should say how many they're available.
01:09:29.924 --> 01:09:31.505
[Riv (DM)]: It should, I think it's four at this level.
01:09:31.966 --> 01:09:34.389
[Riv (DM)]: So you should have four D10s or is it D8s?
01:09:35.650 --> 01:09:37.272
[Riv (DM)]: No, I think the range is a D8.
01:09:37.292 --> 01:09:38.374
[Riv (DM)]: I have four.
01:09:38.434 --> 01:09:39.535
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I have four D8.
01:09:42.639 --> 01:09:42.739
Cool.
01:09:49.317 --> 01:09:52.222
[Riv (DM)]: Again, you guys can remove the temporary hit points as well.
01:09:55.046 --> 01:09:57.210
[JC (Ryo)]: Have we got our strings back?
01:09:57.230 --> 01:09:57.671
[Riv (DM)]: You don't.
01:10:05.924 --> 01:10:06.425
[Lacer (Kai)]: That's cool.
01:10:07.246 --> 01:10:08.148
[Lacer (Kai)]: We've got half a day.
01:10:10.572 --> 01:10:11.393
[Lacer (Kai)]: Would you say...
01:10:12.925 --> 01:10:17.390
[Lacer (Kai)]: This town is half a days away from Camaar?
01:10:18.151 --> 01:10:18.571
[Riv (DM)]: Yep.
01:10:18.591 --> 01:10:19.272
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, it's about half day.
01:10:19.592 --> 01:10:22.195
[Riv (DM)]: If you try and book it, you could get there a little bit quicker.
01:10:25.919 --> 01:10:31.445
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: If we're taking a short rest, just at the end of it, I'll just do a quick run over with people's gear.
01:10:32.246 --> 01:10:38.132
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Make sure everyone's good, so everyone gets seven temporary HP from Inspiring Leader.
01:10:41.135 --> 01:10:41.235
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
01:10:41.255 --> 01:10:42.156
[Riv (DM)]: I'll add it onto Erendor.
01:10:44.043 --> 01:10:51.333
[JC (Ryo)]: I obviously return Val's greatsword back in the cave once he shows that he's him again.
01:10:51.353 --> 01:10:58.083
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: No, he would have recovered all that sort of stuff, so yeah.
01:10:58.343 --> 01:11:03.390
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, okay, while we're doing invents, I'd like to give the bag of red mushrooms to Erendor.
01:11:07.156 --> 01:11:08.017
[Lacer (Kai)]: Here you go, Erendor.
01:11:08.257 --> 01:11:10.320
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm sure you'd find a good use for this later.
01:11:11.785 --> 01:11:16.513
[Riv (DM)]: Erendor, again, cocks and eyebrows and he's like, what, the shady guy with a dark hood?
01:11:16.713 --> 01:11:19.317
[Riv (DM)]: You just assume he's going to be the one that wants to make all these poisons?
01:11:20.179 --> 01:11:21.040
[Riv (DM)]: No, you're like...
01:11:21.260 --> 01:11:23.945
[Riv (DM)]: I'm just joking, of course I want these, and he chucks them in his bag.
01:11:26.769 --> 01:11:28.152
[Riv (DM)]: So like, you want to give them all to him?
01:11:28.973 --> 01:11:30.956
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, I'll give him eight.
01:11:31.317 --> 01:11:32.960
[Lacer (Kai)]: I want to keep two, just in case.
01:11:34.342 --> 01:11:34.502
[Unmatched Speaker]: Alright.
01:11:43.493 --> 01:11:50.761
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, while Val is doing an equipment check with all of us, I'm guessing we're all together, right?
01:11:52.643 --> 01:11:53.144
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yep, everyone's here.
01:11:54.485 --> 01:12:06.278
[Lacer (Kai)]: I just want to go by, I think it's Salah's, no, Tara's house, and give back her lost sister's remains before we head off.
01:12:09.397 --> 01:12:12.001
[JC (Ryo)]: I'll join you on this to go there.
01:12:13.362 --> 01:12:14.284
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
01:12:14.424 --> 01:12:19.751
[Riv (DM)]: Picking your way outside, down the lane, and you find a house quite far down at the end on the right.
01:12:21.554 --> 01:12:34.832
[Riv (DM)]: Knocking on the door, you hear footsteps come over and the door just cracks open just a couple of inches again, but upon recognising you, you see the old face of the woman cracks into a smile and says, Oh, you've returned, you've returned.
01:12:34.852 --> 01:12:35.693
[Riv (DM)]: How did it go?
01:12:35.733 --> 01:12:37.716
[Riv (DM)]: Did you all make it back?
01:12:38.995 --> 01:12:44.021
[Lacer (Kai)]: Just, we got lucky, we got lucky, and everything sort of fell into place.
01:12:45.443 --> 01:12:52.090
[Lacer (Kai)]: Your sister, well, she's, she doesn't walk the earth with us anymore, but... You saw her?
01:12:52.110 --> 01:12:55.034
[Lacer (Kai)]: Saw what was left of her.
01:12:56.055 --> 01:12:56.776
[Lacer (Kai)]: Come in, come in.
01:12:56.896 --> 01:12:58.838
[Lacer (Kai)]: She opens the door wider and ushers you inside.
01:13:01.862 --> 01:13:05.526
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, I go in and sit on one of her shabby stalls.
01:13:07.717 --> 01:13:23.258
[Lacer (Kai)]: Well, we stumble across a cave and we happen to be looking for our friend on another quest here and we happen to come across the locket you were talking about that your sister always had.
01:13:23.478 --> 01:13:34.353
[Lacer (Kai)]: So I take out a pouch, a larger pouch containing the bones and the locket of... Is it Sarah?
01:13:35.494 --> 01:13:35.935
[Lacer (Kai)]: Sarah, yeah.
01:13:37.062 --> 01:13:48.422
[Lacer (Kai)]: And I pass them to her, and I say, the locket may be possessed, so just be careful.
01:13:49.870 --> 01:13:55.217
[Riv (DM)]: Um, as you start, as you say this, and as you start opening up the bag and you pull out the locker, you can see her hands go to her mouth.
01:13:55.738 --> 01:14:00.003
[Riv (DM)]: And she sort of inaudibly gasps, um, and her eyes sort of well up with tears.
01:14:01.044 --> 01:14:06.431
[Riv (DM)]: And she says, oh, I just, I never believed that I would ever see this again.
01:14:06.471 --> 01:14:10.056
[Riv (DM)]: And she holds out her hand and grabs the locker from you, um,
01:14:10.036 --> 01:14:13.625
[Riv (DM)]: Warning about possession, just completely ignored.
01:14:15.350 --> 01:14:19.722
[Riv (DM)]: This has been something that's been haunting her for pretty much her entire life since she was a young girl.
01:14:19.762 --> 01:14:24.855
[Riv (DM)]: And she opens it up and just sort of smiles a bit.
01:14:25.426 --> 01:14:31.752
[Riv (DM)]: She turns around and shows you, and inside it's sort of like an etched engraving.
01:14:32.213 --> 01:14:35.816
[Riv (DM)]: You know how artists would etch into steel, like a picture.
01:14:36.157 --> 01:14:41.842
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, so it's a really, really nicely detailed etched engraving of two people, a male and a female.
01:14:42.463 --> 01:14:44.145
[Riv (DM)]: And she says, these are our parents.
01:14:45.406 --> 01:14:52.733
[Riv (DM)]: Salah carried this everywhere with her since it was the only thing we had to remember them by since we lost them when we were young girls.
01:14:54.012 --> 01:14:55.393
[Riv (DM)]: Thank you for returning this to me.
01:14:56.955 --> 01:14:58.056
[Riv (DM)]: She sort of nods at the bag.
01:14:58.497 --> 01:14:59.017
[Riv (DM)]: What's in there?
01:15:00.539 --> 01:15:02.901
[Lacer (Kai)]: Bag is Salah's remains.
01:15:03.262 --> 01:15:09.768
[Lacer (Kai)]: I think you should put it to rest with the rest of your parents if they're buried around here.
01:15:09.788 --> 01:15:18.437
[Lacer (Kai)]: I didn't want to leave them behind because they were in a cave with some strange necrotic magic.
01:15:20.259 --> 01:15:23.142
[Riv (DM)]: She reaches out and just sort of wordlessly grabs her hand.
01:15:25.957 --> 01:15:27.739
[Riv (DM)]: You'll never know what this means to me.
01:15:28.780 --> 01:15:29.721
[Riv (DM)]: My appreciation is...
01:15:31.023 --> 01:15:32.204
[Riv (DM)]: I...
01:15:32.224 --> 01:15:32.564
[Riv (DM)]: Thank you.
01:15:34.887 --> 01:15:36.429
[Riv (DM)]: This has been the only thing holding me to this town.
01:15:37.650 --> 01:15:37.930
[Riv (DM)]: I will.
01:15:38.431 --> 01:15:41.094
[Riv (DM)]: I'll bury her with my parents and... Who knows?
01:15:42.255 --> 01:15:42.776
[Riv (DM)]: I'm still young.
01:15:43.316 --> 01:15:43.877
[Riv (DM)]: Maybe I'll leave.
01:15:44.057 --> 01:15:45.378
[Riv (DM)]: Maybe I'll go and explore the world a bit.
01:15:46.480 --> 01:15:49.483
[Riv (DM)]: See if these old legs can actually get me anywhere.
01:15:51.944 --> 01:15:54.088
[Lacer (Kai)]: Sounds like a good adventure.
01:15:54.469 --> 01:15:56.914
[Lacer (Kai)]: Just be wary of the north, I'd say.
01:15:58.737 --> 01:15:58.917
[Lacer (Kai)]: Oh?
01:16:00.500 --> 01:16:06.793
[Lacer (Kai)]: Just heard bad things going north, so probably wanna not go that way if you do decide to go out.
01:16:08.516 --> 01:16:08.656
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
01:16:09.117 --> 01:16:09.658
[Riv (DM)]: Keep that in mind.
01:16:13.686 --> 01:16:13.906
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright.
01:16:13.986 --> 01:16:14.307
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
01:16:15.434 --> 01:16:16.896
[Riv (DM)]: I'll leave her to her thing.
01:16:17.958 --> 01:16:18.319
[Riv (DM)]: Very nice.
01:16:18.359 --> 01:16:24.769
[Riv (DM)]: And so yeah, you leave her sitting at the table, just sort of distant gaze, staring out the window, turning the locket in her hands over and over.
01:16:24.809 --> 01:16:34.605
[Riv (DM)]: Returning back down through the street, do you want to head back to the inn and collect all the rest of the guys, or anything else you want to do?
01:16:34.765 --> 01:16:36.488
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, I want to meet up with the guys, yeah.
01:16:37.349 --> 01:16:39.332
[JC (Ryo)]: Um, is there any shops or anything in this town?
01:16:40.291 --> 01:17:10.180
[Riv (DM)]: There is a um there's sort of like a miners repair shop you know the sort of place where they would outfit with pickaxes and packs and stuff like that um there is a exchange building which would be the only place of trade probably where miners would be able to um you know trade gems or or valuable minerals and metals like gold and silver um for coin or just to you know leave it there for trade whenever merchants or traders might come through but there aren't isn't there's no like abundance of like general stores and weapon stores and stuff like that
01:17:10.750 --> 01:17:13.876
[Lacer (Kai)]: If you want to check it out, Rio, we can.
01:17:14.276 --> 01:17:17.603
[Lacer (Kai)]: I wouldn't mind picking up a chunk of obsidian if they have it.
01:17:18.845 --> 01:17:20.688
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, let's just have a look.
01:17:21.089 --> 01:17:21.950
[Lacer (Kai)]: Have a quick squeeze.
01:17:22.772 --> 01:17:24.094
[JC (Ryo)]: You do the talking though, yeah?
01:17:25.818 --> 01:17:31.909
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm only looking for one rock of obsidian, but yeah, okay.
01:17:31.929 --> 01:17:33.231
[JC (Ryo)]: Can you ask for healing potions?
01:17:33.291 --> 01:17:34.834
[JC (Ryo)]: I just don't like talking in shops.
01:17:35.860 --> 01:17:36.541
[Lacer (Kai)]: Right.
01:17:37.122 --> 01:17:37.963
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, no problem.
01:17:37.983 --> 01:17:39.124
[Lacer (Kai)]: I don't guarantee anything.
01:17:39.144 --> 01:17:41.307
[Lacer (Kai)]: This is a mining town after all.
01:17:41.467 --> 01:17:42.849
[JC (Ryo)]: Just ask for me, just ask for me.
01:17:43.470 --> 01:17:44.671
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, alright.
01:17:44.811 --> 01:17:45.532
[Lacer (Kai)]: Let's get cracking.
01:17:46.293 --> 01:17:46.433
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
01:17:47.094 --> 01:17:48.316
[Riv (DM)]: You can head inside.
01:17:48.436 --> 01:17:51.159
[Riv (DM)]: It's quite a dark building on the inside there.
01:17:51.740 --> 01:17:55.725
[Riv (DM)]: They haven't done a lot to try and spruce it up and make it like a really warm place.
01:17:55.705 --> 01:18:05.737
[Riv (DM)]: There is one dwarf behind the counter at the back who's just sort of, he's got like a monocle on and he's combing through a few rocks and stuff like that on the table.
01:18:06.157 --> 01:18:06.898
[Riv (DM)]: No one else inside.
01:18:06.918 --> 01:18:10.943
[Riv (DM)]: And as you enter he looks up and says, Welcome, welcome.
01:18:11.303 --> 01:18:12.184
[Riv (DM)]: What can I do you for?
01:18:12.204 --> 01:18:13.806
[Riv (DM)]: You got anything to say?
01:18:15.448 --> 01:18:16.870
[Lacer (Kai)]: Not particularly.
01:18:17.811 --> 01:18:18.551
[Lacer (Kai)]: Good afternoon.
01:18:19.753 --> 01:18:19.873
[Lacer (Kai)]: Hello.
01:18:21.136 --> 01:18:28.788
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm after a piece of, like, roughly, I don't know, a baseball-sized piece of obsidian?
01:18:29.368 --> 01:18:30.650
[Lacer (Kai)]: Do you guys have any of that?
01:18:31.852 --> 01:18:32.753
[Riv (DM)]: Obsidian?
01:18:34.436 --> 01:18:34.516
[Riv (DM)]: Hmm.
01:18:34.917 --> 01:18:36.800
[Riv (DM)]: Don't see a lot of that around these mountains.
01:18:37.140 --> 01:18:37.821
[Riv (DM)]: Let me go and have a look.
01:18:37.981 --> 01:18:40.565
[Riv (DM)]: You trading anything for it, or are you bringing gold?
01:18:41.346 --> 01:18:42.348
[Riv (DM)]: Uh, gold.
01:18:42.368 --> 01:18:43.430
[Riv (DM)]: Gold, I suppose.
01:18:43.990 --> 01:18:45.513
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, we'll be right back.
01:18:45.533 --> 01:18:47.395
[Riv (DM)]: And he heads off back into a room.
01:18:48.177 --> 01:18:49.759
[Riv (DM)]: He has some clinks and some clatters.
01:18:50.515 --> 01:18:52.719
[Unmatched Speaker]: While we're left alone, is there anything on display?
01:18:53.380 --> 01:18:54.241
[Unmatched Speaker]: Anything out?
01:18:54.261 --> 01:18:56.646
[Unmatched Speaker]: I'm gonna steal shit again.
01:18:57.307 --> 01:18:58.589
[Riv (DM)]: It's a very basic room.
01:18:58.669 --> 01:19:01.875
[Riv (DM)]: It's not like a jewellery store where they just display gems.
01:19:02.556 --> 01:19:08.406
[Riv (DM)]: The only thing that would potentially be valuable would be, you know, the piles of rocks that he's got on the counter that he was just looking at.
01:19:10.970 --> 01:19:15.358
[JC (Ryo)]: Just anything on the counters that might be useful in general, not just expensive?
01:19:16.418 --> 01:19:22.275
[Riv (DM)]: In the quick time that is passing while it goes back, why don't you roll a perception check?
01:19:23.098 --> 01:19:23.198
[Riv (DM)]: Sure.
01:19:23.218 --> 01:19:24.943
[Riv (DM)]: What the frickin' hell are you?
01:19:30.357 --> 01:19:37.334
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, so the rocks themselves, they look like they might be little veins of silver flowing through them.
01:19:38.998 --> 01:19:48.501
[Riv (DM)]: They would have to be refined, but you can see the odd speck shining through, so you gather that it's probably a recent sort of excavation of silver ore.
01:19:48.481 --> 01:20:14.235
[Riv (DM)]: Um the only other thing you sort of notice that looks valuable on the counter would be like there's like a little metal implement um off to the side that looks like it's kind of like a mini pick something that you'd imagine some jeweler or um miner would use to sort of scrape away excess stone from from ore um it looks it looks nice well made probably worth anything that's not on like not not the counter he was on is there anything else in the shop like onto the side or anything like that hmm
01:20:15.076 --> 01:20:22.108
[Riv (DM)]: I mean, there's like a couple of stalls against the side where people might sit while he's working.
01:20:22.589 --> 01:20:26.997
[Riv (DM)]: There's like a cupboard over to the back with just like a couple of old books and stuff in it.
01:20:27.017 --> 01:20:31.144
[Riv (DM)]: A couple of those like really, really, you know,
01:20:31.124 --> 01:20:34.788
[Riv (DM)]: In like old taverns and stuff, they would put up ancient like skis and like cross them.
01:20:34.889 --> 01:20:36.711
[Riv (DM)]: There's a couple of like big skis up against the wall.
01:20:37.392 --> 01:20:39.294
[Riv (DM)]: Nothing's really sticking out that's looking valuable.
01:20:39.814 --> 01:20:42.017
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, I'm not looking at anything.
01:20:42.097 --> 01:20:43.439
[Lacer (Kai)]: Steal a store for Dondar.
01:20:44.100 --> 01:20:45.742
[JC (Ryo)]: I was so fucking tempted to do that.
01:20:45.942 --> 01:20:49.386
[JC (Ryo)]: Alright, yeah, all good then.
01:20:49.446 --> 01:20:49.847
[JC (Ryo)]: Never mind.
01:20:50.247 --> 01:20:53.571
[JC (Ryo)]: I'll just stand at the back and just wander.
01:20:54.968 --> 01:21:02.916
[Riv (DM)]: The dwarf comes back around to the front and he is holding a sort of an egg-sized chunk of black, some black looking gemstone.
01:21:03.717 --> 01:21:06.099
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, this is the last one we got in the store.
01:21:07.781 --> 01:21:09.963
[Riv (DM)]: I'll give this away for about 10 gold.
01:21:11.164 --> 01:21:12.846
[Lacer (Kai)]: Oh sure, alright, easily done.
01:21:13.767 --> 01:21:17.030
[Lacer (Kai)]: While you're at it, do you sell any healing potions?
01:21:20.373 --> 01:21:23.136
[Riv (DM)]: Does this look like the sort of place that you'd buy healing potions?
01:21:23.352 --> 01:21:24.735
[Lacer (Kai)]: Um, sometimes.
01:21:24.855 --> 01:21:26.177
[Lacer (Kai)]: Miners get hurt all the time, hey?
01:21:27.119 --> 01:21:27.841
[Riv (DM)]: Fair enough, fair enough.
01:21:28.522 --> 01:21:31.768
[Riv (DM)]: No, sorry friend, just I deal in gemstones and metals.
01:21:33.672 --> 01:21:34.573
[Lacer (Kai)]: Metals, you say?
01:21:34.614 --> 01:21:39.523
[Lacer (Kai)]: Well, just quickly, do you have any, like, powdered silver?
01:21:40.024 --> 01:21:42.128
[Lacer (Kai)]: Like, is this a silver mining town?
01:21:43.671 --> 01:21:44.813
[Riv (DM)]: Of course, yeah.
01:21:45.214 --> 01:21:46.356
[Riv (DM)]: Just in front of them.
01:21:49.306 --> 01:21:53.694
[Lacer (Kai)]: And I get maybe 50 golds worth of carded silver.
01:21:54.395 --> 01:21:55.537
[Riv (DM)]: Of course, no problem.
01:21:55.838 --> 01:21:57.641
[Riv (DM)]: And he once again heads back.
01:21:57.962 --> 01:21:59.605
[Riv (DM)]: While he's behind, do you want to steal a window?
01:21:59.625 --> 01:22:02.390
[Riv (DM)]: No.
01:22:03.973 --> 01:22:09.002
[Riv (DM)]: Easy enough, he can also find you a little nicely tied up pouch of silver dust.
01:22:10.535 --> 01:22:12.077
[Riv (DM)]: So you said 50 golds worth?
01:22:12.097 --> 01:22:13.159
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, 50 golds worth.
01:22:13.440 --> 01:22:14.882
[Riv (DM)]: Cool, no problem, so yeah.
01:22:15.403 --> 01:22:16.805
[Lacer (Kai)]: Total 60 golds.
01:22:16.865 --> 01:22:20.471
[Riv (DM)]: 60 golds you can add an obsidian gem and a patch of silver.
01:22:21.252 --> 01:22:23.856
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, alright, thanks doing business with you.
01:22:23.896 --> 01:22:26.280
[Riv (DM)]: No problem.
01:22:27.141 --> 01:22:27.682
[Riv (DM)]: I'll be seeing you.
01:22:28.744 --> 01:22:29.525
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll see you around.
01:22:30.166 --> 01:22:30.346
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright.
01:22:31.368 --> 01:22:33.231
[JC (Ryo)]: I just wave as we walk out.
01:22:33.932 --> 01:22:34.893
[Lacer (Kai)]: Walk out with a stool?
01:22:36.235 --> 01:22:37.858
[JC (Ryo)]: No, no, no, I didn't steal anything.
01:22:38.125 --> 01:22:40.848
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, I'd like to make a quick dash for the inn, yeah.
01:22:41.468 --> 01:22:41.568
[Lacer (Kai)]: Cool.
01:22:41.588 --> 01:22:46.012
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, as you walk out you just see him go back to his work, he's scraping away, gets a ball with the little implement.
01:22:47.494 --> 01:22:47.854
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, cool.
01:22:48.515 --> 01:22:49.416
[Riv (DM)]: Making your way back to the inn.
01:22:49.576 --> 01:22:53.940
[Riv (DM)]: Are the rest of you guys up to anything while these guys are doing stuff?
01:22:57.664 --> 01:22:58.685
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Sleeping.
01:22:58.705 --> 01:22:59.565
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Just chillin', the lights on?
01:23:00.106 --> 01:23:00.887
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Sittin' and thinkin'.
01:23:01.227 --> 01:23:01.547
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Chillin'.
01:23:02.508 --> 01:23:03.429
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Eatin', drinkin'.
01:23:03.889 --> 01:23:04.470
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Yeah.
01:23:04.906 --> 01:23:06.488
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Wondering if they brought me a stool.
01:23:09.333 --> 01:23:09.894
[Riv (DM)]: True.
01:23:12.237 --> 01:23:16.964
[Riv (DM)]: So for some food, it'll be three silver per person if you want to cross that off.
01:23:18.767 --> 01:23:22.232
[Riv (DM)]: Unless you wanted to have, I don't know, brought your own rations or something.
01:23:22.252 --> 01:23:24.836
[Riv (DM)]: But yeah, why don't you all cross off three silver for a modest meal?
01:23:27.140 --> 01:23:30.745
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, and Kai and Rio, you can join the rest of your friends in the Red Leaf.
01:23:35.990 --> 01:23:42.978
[Riv (DM)]: Theresa, you can see she's sitting by a window and looking out and says, um, weather seems to be turning better.
01:23:43.319 --> 01:23:45.902
[Riv (DM)]: Maybe we should get on the road if we want to get back to Camaar before nightfall, yeah?
01:23:47.744 --> 01:23:48.906
[Lacer (Kai)]: I agree.
01:23:49.266 --> 01:23:49.807
[Lacer (Kai)]: Everyone else?
01:23:52.610 --> 01:23:53.351
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Mmm, yes.
01:23:55.413 --> 01:23:57.376
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yep, we don't want to get stuck up here in Snowdin.
01:23:58.257 --> 01:23:59.178
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: As long as we're all good to travel.
01:24:00.760 --> 01:24:03.383
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, I'm feeling better after the food.
01:24:04.404 --> 01:24:05.085
[Riv (DM)]: Thank you, yeah.
01:24:08.204 --> 01:24:09.427
[Riv (DM)]: All righty then.
01:24:12.635 --> 01:24:14.279
[Riv (DM)]: So, racing on out.
01:24:15.502 --> 01:24:23.462
[Riv (DM)]: This music seems a bit more dramatic than it needs to be, won't we?
01:24:23.662 --> 01:24:25.545
[Riv (DM)]: It's an easy travel back.
01:24:26.466 --> 01:24:28.069
[Riv (DM)]: The weather does end up clearing.
01:24:29.010 --> 01:24:36.562
[Riv (DM)]: You come up out of the valley and clear the fog blanket that was covering the village and the forest.
01:24:36.582 --> 01:24:40.868
[Riv (DM)]: And looking around you can see the peaks of the mountains up behind you poking up through the clouds.
01:24:40.968 --> 01:24:41.709
[Riv (DM)]: It's kind of beautiful.
01:24:42.450 --> 01:24:45.515
[Riv (DM)]: And then ahead of you you can see the ocean some miles away.
01:24:46.256 --> 01:24:51.424
[Riv (DM)]: And just in the distance you can make out sort of the city.
01:24:51.404 --> 01:24:59.259
[Riv (DM)]: So travelling for a few hours, about half a day, you arrive at the gates of Camaar as the sun is beginning to set in the afternoon.
01:25:00.782 --> 01:25:08.256
[Riv (DM)]: Coming on down to the main gates, you can see familiar guards now sort of waving people through, checking a few people.
01:25:08.957 --> 01:25:14.307
[Riv (DM)]: Anything you want to do before you get to the gates or are we carrying on through?
01:25:17.375 --> 01:25:23.409
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm tying my gold purse tight within my armor.
01:25:23.429 --> 01:25:23.970
[Lacer (Kai)]: Fair enough.
01:25:23.990 --> 01:25:28.040
[Lacer (Kai)]: I've got PTSD.
01:25:28.661 --> 01:25:34.354
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Six Eyeball at the gates, are we seeing any sort of escalation in guards compared to earlier?
01:25:35.195 --> 01:25:38.519
[Riv (DM)]: It does look like there are a couple more than there were before.
01:25:38.680 --> 01:25:39.381
[Riv (DM)]: Nothing alarming.
01:25:39.401 --> 01:25:42.064
[Riv (DM)]: It's not like a whole regiment, but there might be a few more.
01:25:42.184 --> 01:25:47.972
[Riv (DM)]: It's like the whole city, most people feel, you get the feeling that there's just sort of this sense of tension.
01:25:48.032 --> 01:25:51.217
[Riv (DM)]: Everyone's like kind of, something's on the wind.
01:25:51.257 --> 01:26:00.409
[Riv (DM)]: So people are taking a bit more care and you imagine that maybe the captain of the guard has decided to post a couple more people just to make sure nothing too dramatic breaks out.
01:26:00.760 --> 01:26:03.443
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: They're not doing spot searches, they're just...
01:26:03.463 --> 01:26:03.723
[Riv (DM)]: They are.
01:26:03.863 --> 01:26:06.286
[Riv (DM)]: Occasionally they'll stop the odd person and search their bags.
01:26:06.826 --> 01:26:08.949
[Riv (DM)]: You can see this as you're kind of coming down the road towards the gates.
01:26:10.530 --> 01:26:13.494
[JC (Ryo)]: As I see this, I'm going to say, hey guys, can we hang on a second?
01:26:13.574 --> 01:26:14.915
[JC (Ryo)]: I'm just going to double back and get out of sight.
01:26:17.658 --> 01:26:19.740
[JC (Ryo)]: Can I get out of sight of all the guards?
01:26:20.201 --> 01:26:24.265
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, like the scattering of trees and forests and rocks and stuff like that.
01:26:24.926 --> 01:26:27.088
[Riv (DM)]: You can find a tree or a big boulder to get behind.
01:26:27.642 --> 01:26:28.464
[JC (Ryo)]: Yep, sweet.
01:26:28.544 --> 01:26:37.286
[JC (Ryo)]: Go behind, cast this and make myself look human and just normal traveling clothes, nothing special.
01:26:38.449 --> 01:26:40.634
[JC (Ryo)]: All my elven features gone completely.
01:26:41.456 --> 01:26:43.922
[Riv (DM)]: No problem.
01:26:43.942 --> 01:26:44.183
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
01:26:45.833 --> 01:26:47.416
[Riv (DM)]: So cool, heading on down to the gate then.
01:26:48.177 --> 01:26:55.028
[Riv (DM)]: A guard approaches you as you get closer and then kind of stops and says, ah, right.
01:26:56.250 --> 01:26:58.473
[Riv (DM)]: We're told to expect you guys.
01:26:58.814 --> 01:27:00.437
[Riv (DM)]: Go on, carry on ahead.
01:27:01.859 --> 01:27:03.201
[Riv (DM)]: Let me make my first roll for the night.
01:27:05.510 --> 01:27:11.938
[Riv (DM)]: He doesn't seem to realize that Teresa is a bit out of place and so he doesn't stop her to ask questions and you can all make it through the gates.
01:27:14.340 --> 01:27:21.469
[Riv (DM)]: Getting back to Camaar, you can see Teresa is a bit more energized and she sort of starts heading off in the direction of the apothecary.
01:27:21.889 --> 01:27:26.175
[Riv (DM)]: You guys following along or do you want to do anything before she goes?
01:27:26.195 --> 01:27:33.323
[Lacer (Kai)]: I think we should follow her so we can complete this job we were done because I'm knackered, you know?
01:27:33.370 --> 01:27:59.597
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah so heading on up to the south side of the city up the um a few nice sets of stairs into the nicer part of town up along that that top lane along the um on the hill there um you go past the emporium which you've been to a few times and towards the end of the lane the cobblestone apothecary um yeah and heading on in um you see Theresa just sort of like book it as soon as she gets inside and um as you come in after you can see Thane was
01:27:59.577 --> 01:28:04.762
[Riv (DM)]: The man was just sort of sitting at the counter, just twiddling his thumbs, just looking stressed, as stressed as you last saw him.
01:28:04.782 --> 01:28:08.646
[Riv (DM)]: But she, breaking through the door, runs over to him and just sort of jumps into his arms.
01:28:09.147 --> 01:28:09.988
[Riv (DM)]: Big hug.
01:28:10.008 --> 01:28:14.973
[Riv (DM)]: And they just sort of catch up and he's like, oh, you know, what happened?
01:28:14.993 --> 01:28:15.393
[Riv (DM)]: What happened?
01:28:15.473 --> 01:28:16.294
[Riv (DM)]: I missed you so badly.
01:28:16.314 --> 01:28:18.016
[Riv (DM)]: And, you know, they have a quick little reunion.
01:28:18.056 --> 01:28:22.340
[Riv (DM)]: As you guys start filing in behind, she gestures something like that.
01:28:23.001 --> 01:28:23.501
[Riv (DM)]: These are the ones.
01:28:23.561 --> 01:28:24.342
[Riv (DM)]: They saved me.
01:28:24.362 --> 01:28:24.983
[Riv (DM)]: They were heroes.
01:28:25.083 --> 01:28:27.205
[Riv (DM)]: And he nods and goes, well,
01:28:27.185 --> 01:28:28.530
[Riv (DM)]: They certainly are.
01:28:28.570 --> 01:28:30.055
[Riv (DM)]: They fulfilled their bargain.
01:28:30.376 --> 01:28:32.865
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, my friends, come in, please, please.
01:28:32.885 --> 01:28:34.933
[Riv (DM)]: You don't know how grateful I am.
01:28:35.876 --> 01:28:38.646
[Riv (DM)]: And he sort of explains that he had
01:28:39.706 --> 01:28:41.408
[Riv (DM)]: Pulled out all the stops to find her basically.
01:28:41.568 --> 01:28:46.134
[Riv (DM)]: He hired the mercenaries, he went to the Green Griffins and brought her back home safely.
01:28:47.396 --> 01:28:51.241
[Riv (DM)]: He looks at you and says, alright, alright, as agreed, quickly, let me just...
01:28:51.261 --> 01:28:55.326
[Riv (DM)]: He's frantically just sort of trying to sort everything out in his mind, a bit overwhelmed.
01:28:55.786 --> 01:28:58.710
[Riv (DM)]: He runs to the back of the store and pulls out a potion.
01:29:00.392 --> 01:29:05.258
[Riv (DM)]: This one has like a liquid that's sort of like a dark brownish, sort of goldish colour to it.
01:29:05.699 --> 01:29:08.262
[Riv (DM)]: And he says, now this...
01:29:08.242 --> 01:29:14.269
[Riv (DM)]: Only got one of these, but it all should be just perfect for people in your line of work.
01:29:14.730 --> 01:29:17.713
[Riv (DM)]: Drink one of these, and you'll be as strong as a giant.
01:29:18.074 --> 01:29:19.535
[Riv (DM)]: So, please, take it.
01:29:19.976 --> 01:29:20.777
[Riv (DM)]: I hope it serves you well.
01:29:22.199 --> 01:29:23.120
[Riv (DM)]: You don't know how grateful I am.
01:29:24.421 --> 01:29:25.923
[Lacer (Kai)]: I think you need one of those, Vale.
01:29:26.223 --> 01:29:27.365
[Lacer (Kai)]: Like, every time we go out.
01:29:29.487 --> 01:29:31.009
[Lacer (Kai)]: Jesus.
01:29:31.327 --> 01:29:34.211
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm trying to remember what the potion giant strength is.
01:29:34.231 --> 01:29:36.834
[Riv (DM)]: This will be hill giant strength, so it'll be plus 23.
01:29:36.854 --> 01:29:39.578
[Riv (DM)]: Sorry, it sets you to 23.
01:29:41.280 --> 01:29:43.663
[JC (Ryo)]: Did you say plus 23 or sets you to 23?
01:29:43.683 --> 01:29:44.705
[Riv (DM)]: Sets you to 23, sorry.
01:29:46.948 --> 01:29:47.689
[Lacer (Kai)]: Plus 23.
01:29:54.999 --> 01:29:58.363
[Riv (DM)]: Cool, so whoever wants to grab that, feel free to add a potion of hill giant strength.
01:30:00.301 --> 01:30:01.643
[Lacer (Kai)]: It's all yours, Val.
01:30:01.843 --> 01:30:04.587
[Lacer (Kai)]: I never go and... No doubt.
01:30:04.707 --> 01:30:05.528
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll chuck it in for now.
01:30:05.968 --> 01:30:07.931
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, that doesn't do much for me.
01:30:08.612 --> 01:30:10.054
[JC (Ryo)]: I mean, I'm feeling really weak.
01:30:10.074 --> 01:30:15.460
[JC (Ryo)]: I could use a strength boost, but...
01:30:15.481 --> 01:30:16.302
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Probably not good for now.
01:30:16.342 --> 01:30:22.770
[JC (Ryo)]: Need to look at Longtown to fix that.
01:30:23.331 --> 01:30:24.452
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, that messed me up.
01:30:25.597 --> 01:30:33.645
[Lacer (Kai)]: While you're at it, Thane, do you have any basic books on herbalism?
01:30:33.845 --> 01:30:38.089
[Lacer (Kai)]: Like plants, local plants, stuff like that?
01:30:40.812 --> 01:30:43.014
[Lacer (Kai)]: Maybe even beginner potion making?
01:30:44.655 --> 01:30:46.157
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, are you interested?
01:30:46.177 --> 01:30:48.719
[Riv (DM)]: Do you want to start practicing alchemy?
01:30:48.739 --> 01:30:49.660
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, I would like to.
01:30:49.680 --> 01:30:53.764
[Lacer (Kai)]: I would like to practice alchemy as I
01:30:55.870 --> 01:31:07.213
[Riv (DM)]: So a book like this if you want to start learning a new proficiency you can find them and it'll take a bit of time to start reading and practicing them but yeah we can talk about that.
01:31:08.756 --> 01:31:14.267
[Riv (DM)]: The book would probably normally be like 50 to 100 gold but he he's honestly just gonna
01:31:15.226 --> 01:31:18.309
[Riv (DM)]: You know, place it into your hands and just take it, please.
01:31:19.390 --> 01:31:20.231
[Riv (DM)]: It's the least I can do.
01:31:20.571 --> 01:31:23.274
[Riv (DM)]: And, hey, more aspiring alchemists out in the world.
01:31:24.375 --> 01:31:26.838
[Riv (DM)]: It seems like it might be just what we need.
01:31:27.518 --> 01:31:31.162
[Riv (DM)]: So, yeah, he's hopefully happy to give you this.
01:31:31.382 --> 01:31:35.066
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, so why don't you add a book of basic alchemy or something like that?
01:31:36.287 --> 01:31:36.728
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, great.
01:31:36.748 --> 01:31:37.108
[Riv (DM)]: Thank you.
01:31:38.289 --> 01:31:38.569
[Riv (DM)]: All right.
01:31:40.912 --> 01:31:42.393
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, damn, I should have made you roll a persuasion check.
01:31:42.613 --> 01:31:42.894
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, well.
01:31:44.315 --> 01:31:45.216
[Riv (DM)]: You got it now.
01:31:45.837 --> 01:31:51.446
[JC (Ryo)]: While we're here, how about some basic supplies?
01:31:53.389 --> 01:31:54.792
[Riv (DM)]: Of course, what sort of potions are you looking for?
01:31:56.394 --> 01:31:57.777
[JC (Ryo)]: What have you got?
01:31:57.837 --> 01:32:01.703
[JC (Ryo)]: Obviously potions are healing, they're always nice, but what else is there?
01:32:02.408 --> 01:32:03.850
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, we've got a couple of potions of healing.
01:32:04.752 --> 01:32:12.805
[Riv (DM)]: Pulls out a little crate, like a milk carton where you would have your, you know, your four glass bottles of milk.
01:32:12.825 --> 01:32:15.509
[Riv (DM)]: So four basic potions of healing would be up for grabs.
01:32:15.529 --> 01:32:17.873
[Riv (DM)]: They're 50 gold each if you want to buy as many as you want.
01:32:19.135 --> 01:32:19.616
[Riv (DM)]: What else we got?
01:32:19.636 --> 01:32:22.120
[Riv (DM)]: He's got a potion of invisibility.
01:32:27.088 --> 01:32:28.450
[Riv (DM)]: Hill Giant strength he gave.
01:32:32.513 --> 01:32:36.437
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, that's kind of it.
01:32:38.899 --> 01:32:41.501
[Riv (DM)]: It's not like there's like just massive stocks of potions on the wall.
01:32:41.521 --> 01:32:49.168
[Riv (DM)]: Potions are pretty expensive usually and normally made to order other than a few of the little basic ones like potions of healing.
01:32:49.248 --> 01:32:56.054
[Riv (DM)]: So yeah, if you want to buy, you can buy up to four potions of healing for 50 gold each and a potion of invisibility.
01:32:57.095 --> 01:32:59.938
[Riv (DM)]: Let me just check that, how much it actually costs.
01:33:04.154 --> 01:33:05.199
[Riv (DM)]: It's probably like 500 gold.
01:33:08.213 --> 01:33:13.438
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, potion of invisibility is quite expensive.
01:33:14.988 --> 01:33:16.771
[JC (Ryo)]: A potion of healing would be nice.
01:33:17.051 --> 01:33:22.920
[JC (Ryo)]: Any chance of a bit of a discount after we just, you know, help save your partner?
01:33:22.940 --> 01:33:25.043
[Lacer (Kai)]: Persuasion check.
01:33:25.323 --> 01:33:31.012
[Lacer (Kai)]: Since we've finished the quest, was there, I thought there was additional gold or did we get paid already?
01:33:32.714 --> 01:33:35.438
[Riv (DM)]: You sort of talked about either gold or potion of healing.
01:33:35.478 --> 01:33:37.081
[Riv (DM)]: Sorry, the potion of giant strength.
01:33:37.161 --> 01:33:38.142
[Riv (DM)]: Giant strength, right.
01:33:38.302 --> 01:33:41.367
[Riv (DM)]: Okay, gotcha.
01:33:45.177 --> 01:33:45.417
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
01:33:46.238 --> 01:33:49.141
[Riv (DM)]: I mean, these are sort of the last potions I've got.
01:33:50.523 --> 01:33:58.631
[Riv (DM)]: Tell you what, I'll give you all four for, shall we say, like, 180 gold.
01:34:00.553 --> 01:34:07.100
[Lacer (Kai)]: That's a good discount, considering you weren't very good at persuading.
01:34:07.120 --> 01:34:09.443
[JC (Ryo)]: That is really good, but I'm only after one.
01:34:09.543 --> 01:34:10.864
[JC (Ryo)]: How about one for 45?
01:34:16.514 --> 01:34:19.637
[JC (Ryo)]: Works out the same.
01:34:19.797 --> 01:34:20.958
[Riv (DM)]: He's trying to get rid of all of them.
01:34:22.820 --> 01:34:29.927
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, with a 10, it's probably a bit too low.
01:34:29.947 --> 01:34:34.912
[JC (Ryo)]: I look at the rest, I'm like, does anyone want to go for quarters or... Go for quarters.
01:34:35.032 --> 01:34:37.635
[JC (Ryo)]: I only want one.
01:34:38.156 --> 01:34:39.577
[Lacer (Kai)]: You know what, I'll do a persuasion.
01:34:39.617 --> 01:34:41.519
[Lacer (Kai)]: How about all four for 170?
01:34:42.620 --> 01:34:44.682
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll do a persuasion check.
01:34:45.590 --> 01:34:46.111
[Lacer (Kai)]: Go for it.
01:34:46.591 --> 01:34:47.492
[Unmatched Speaker]: Bartering with a guy.
01:34:47.512 --> 01:35:00.088
[Riv (DM)]: I greatly appreciate what you've done for me and my family, but you have to understand I'm trying to run a business here.
01:35:00.148 --> 01:35:02.811
[Riv (DM)]: I'm trying to make ends meet.
01:35:02.831 --> 01:35:07.357
[Riv (DM)]: A lot of my supplies have been already taken by the military.
01:35:09.199 --> 01:35:11.682
[Lacer (Kai)]: We understand.
01:35:15.172 --> 01:35:18.537
[JC (Ryo)]: Alright, and is everyone all good here?
01:35:20.320 --> 01:35:21.762
[Lacer (Kai)]: Mhm.
01:35:21.782 --> 01:35:25.007
[Lacer (Kai)]: Well then, we're glad Theresa is safe and sound.
01:35:25.067 --> 01:35:26.509
[Lacer (Kai)]: She was barely injured.
01:35:28.552 --> 01:35:32.238
[Lacer (Kai)]: And we'll get out of your hair.
01:35:34.862 --> 01:35:37.085
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, well, once again, thank you very, very much.
01:35:37.205 --> 01:35:42.934
[Riv (DM)]: And I'll be sure to mention to the Green Griffins just how superb you completed the contract.
01:35:44.956 --> 01:35:50.602
[Riv (DM)]: Hopefully they will appreciate the boost in reputation.
01:35:52.385 --> 01:35:53.446
[Riv (DM)]: I hope so too.
01:35:54.387 --> 01:35:55.088
[Riv (DM)]: Have a good evening.
01:35:56.429 --> 01:35:56.750
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
01:35:57.771 --> 01:35:59.232
[Riv (DM)]: You can head out of the store.
01:35:59.413 --> 01:36:01.955
[Riv (DM)]: So, evening is coming quickly.
01:36:02.016 --> 01:36:04.198
[Riv (DM)]: Is there anything else you guys want to do in the city?
01:36:04.218 --> 01:36:08.183
[Riv (DM)]: Any other shops you wanted to bounce to quickly before?
01:36:09.104 --> 01:36:10.305
[Lacer (Kai)]: Well, anything, really.
01:36:11.483 --> 01:36:13.886
[Lacer (Kai)]: I don't know about the rest, but I would like a bath.
01:36:14.266 --> 01:36:19.632
[Lacer (Kai)]: It's probably starting to get pretty late in the day.
01:36:20.733 --> 01:36:22.475
[JC (Ryo)]: Can we get a bath at the inn?
01:36:23.396 --> 01:36:23.977
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
01:36:23.997 --> 01:36:25.198
[JC (Ryo)]: Or is there a separate bathhouse?
01:36:28.962 --> 01:36:29.723
[Riv (DM)]: Was that a question to me?
01:36:29.743 --> 01:36:30.664
[Riv (DM)]: Oops, don't smell.
01:36:30.684 --> 01:36:31.685
[JC (Ryo)]: Sorry, that was to rip you.
01:36:32.286 --> 01:36:38.713
[Riv (DM)]: At the inn, there would have been basic facilities that you probably would have used the last time you stayed there.
01:36:38.894 --> 01:36:41.136
[Riv (DM)]: So yeah, you could have a bath at the inn.
01:36:45.031 --> 01:36:45.772
[Lacer (Kai)]: Umm...
01:36:46.052 --> 01:36:47.354
[Lacer (Kai)]: I don't know if there's a spell to learn.
01:36:48.456 --> 01:36:48.756
[Lacer (Kai)]: Sorry.
01:36:48.796 --> 01:36:51.279
[Lacer (Kai)]: No, no, it's cool.
01:36:51.299 --> 01:37:01.313
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, as we're walking down to the inn, I'd like to ask everybody, when do you want to go see the Mawbreakers in the morning tomorrow?
01:37:01.994 --> 01:37:05.819
[Lacer (Kai)]: Like, it's been a couple of days already since we've done all these extra jobs.
01:37:07.401 --> 01:37:10.245
[Lacer (Kai)]: How would you like to prepare the next day?
01:37:13.955 --> 01:37:15.898
[JC (Ryo)]: What's her name?
01:37:22.207 --> 01:37:29.878
[JC (Ryo)]: Would it be worth trying to find Gemma tonight to find out what's going on?
01:37:29.898 --> 01:37:31.761
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I mean, tonight, tomorrow, it's all the same.
01:37:32.982 --> 01:37:37.549
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, I think she'd be staying at the inn.
01:37:44.363 --> 01:37:44.703
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah.
01:37:46.466 --> 01:37:49.690
[Lacer (Kai)]: Do we know if Gem is staying in the city since we've been out and about?
01:37:50.991 --> 01:37:51.572
[Riv (DM)]: You haven't seen her.
01:37:51.932 --> 01:37:54.676
[Riv (DM)]: You haven't checked in with them since the first day that you arrived.
01:37:55.857 --> 01:37:56.899
[Riv (DM)]: But she was at the inn.
01:37:56.959 --> 01:37:59.462
[Riv (DM)]: She sort of pointed you out.
01:38:00.023 --> 01:38:01.765
[Riv (DM)]: Pointed the inn out to you guys to come and stay.
01:38:02.566 --> 01:38:03.407
[Riv (DM)]: The lion.
01:38:04.929 --> 01:38:09.915
[Riv (DM)]: But yeah, since that first night, you haven't gone to say hi to her, so you don't know where she is.
01:38:14.367 --> 01:38:19.873
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, let's check the line and ask the barkeep there.
01:38:20.714 --> 01:38:26.621
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm sure they would know since she stays there often.
01:38:26.641 --> 01:38:31.446
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, let's see if we can find her first before we ask, but yes.
01:38:35.331 --> 01:38:35.731
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
01:38:35.751 --> 01:38:35.972
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
01:38:37.113 --> 01:38:39.075
[Riv (DM)]: And Kiwi, you wanted to learn a spell?
01:38:41.317 --> 01:38:45.362
[Riv (DM)]: Uh, yeah, Dondar needs four hours to learn Misty Step.
01:38:45.723 --> 01:38:46.624
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, gotcha gotcha.
01:38:46.724 --> 01:38:48.667
[Riv (DM)]: I'll copy it into his, uh, book.
01:38:48.687 --> 01:38:52.852
[Riv (DM)]: Sorry, I thought you meant, like, pop into the, um, the magic shop to buy a new spell or something, so.
01:38:53.032 --> 01:38:57.799
[Riv (DM)]: Cool, yeah, nah, if it's just you want to learn a new one then you can do that overnight when we, if you rest.
01:38:58.519 --> 01:38:59.461
[Riv (DM)]: So, all good.
01:39:00.402 --> 01:39:05.368
[JC (Ryo)]: Also, my guy wouldn't know when the, uh, hour's almost up and the spell's about to fade, yes?
01:39:05.388 --> 01:39:06.410
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
01:39:06.430 --> 01:39:08.893
[JC (Ryo)]: Are we near there yet or not yet?
01:39:09.160 --> 01:39:11.345
[Riv (DM)]: Nah, you probably still got about another half an hour.
01:39:13.610 --> 01:39:19.943
[JC (Ryo)]: If it's about to fade, I want to try and get on my own so no one sees me shimmer back.
01:39:20.906 --> 01:39:22.950
[Riv (DM)]: Get down to another dark alley, it always goes well.
01:39:23.386 --> 01:39:26.069
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, no problem.
01:39:26.509 --> 01:39:28.432
[Riv (DM)]: It probably will take another half an hour-ish.
01:39:28.832 --> 01:39:31.375
[Riv (DM)]: The city isn't massive, but it's decently large.
01:39:31.835 --> 01:39:38.302
[Riv (DM)]: So probably just before you get to the inn, I would say, you might want to pop into an alley and recast it.
01:39:38.322 --> 01:39:42.627
[JC (Ryo)]: No, just so it drops and I can then just walk out.
01:39:42.647 --> 01:39:43.568
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, cool.
01:39:43.588 --> 01:39:44.309
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, no problem.
01:39:44.689 --> 01:39:47.592
[Riv (DM)]: All good.
01:39:47.612 --> 01:39:48.213
[Riv (DM)]: All right, cool.
01:39:48.533 --> 01:39:49.535
[Riv (DM)]: So heading on up to the inn.
01:39:52.157 --> 01:39:52.718
[Riv (DM)]: Heading straight in?
01:39:55.060 --> 01:39:59.706
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, I'm heading straight to the barkeep and getting a drink.
01:40:00.907 --> 01:40:01.869
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, sweet.
01:40:01.969 --> 01:40:09.879
[Riv (DM)]: As we get in, would you like to roll a perception check to see if you can spot the rest of the caravan crew?
01:40:11.901 --> 01:40:13.083
[Riv (DM)]: Can I get others to help me?
01:40:13.844 --> 01:40:15.005
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, you can all have a quick look around.
01:40:18.149 --> 01:40:20.913
[Lacer (Kai)]: Roll at advantage?
01:40:21.874 --> 01:40:24.257
[Riv (DM)]: You can, or Ryo can also roll separately.
01:40:25.199 --> 01:40:26.283
[Lacer (Kai)]: We'll do a double roll.
01:40:26.303 --> 01:40:26.765
[Lacer (Kai)]: How about that?
01:40:26.865 --> 01:40:27.307
[Lacer (Kai)]: Double roll.
01:40:27.468 --> 01:40:28.170
[Lacer (Kai)]: Go for it.
01:40:28.532 --> 01:40:30.479
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
01:40:31.643 --> 01:40:32.406
[Riv (DM)]: I see everything.
01:40:32.868 --> 01:40:34.213
[Riv (DM)]: You do.
01:40:35.780 --> 01:40:38.403
[Riv (DM)]: There are an average number of people here tonight.
01:40:39.765 --> 01:40:45.572
[Riv (DM)]: This time of the evening it sort of fills up with a few locals from the town who just want to come over and get a meal and a drink.
01:40:45.992 --> 01:40:52.260
[Riv (DM)]: And there are also some sort of faces that you might have recognised from a few nights earlier that were also staying at the inn as well.
01:40:53.701 --> 01:40:56.725
[Riv (DM)]: But you don't see any of the Fine Gold Caravan crew.
01:40:59.438 --> 01:41:05.866
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, I go up to the barkeep and order two meads.
01:41:07.949 --> 01:41:09.050
[Lacer (Kai)]: And I go to the barkeep.
01:41:09.771 --> 01:41:12.294
[Lacer (Kai)]: Have you seen the Feingolds around lately?
01:41:13.416 --> 01:41:17.221
[Riv (DM)]: The woman, Mistress Siren, that you recognise, yeah, she's familiar now.
01:41:17.821 --> 01:41:23.809
[Riv (DM)]: She was sort of distracted just helping another customer and she looks over at you as you say this and goes,
01:41:26.118 --> 01:41:29.165
[Riv (DM)]: You were the ones that came in with the fine golds originally, yeah?
01:41:30.026 --> 01:41:34.055
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, we were helping them clear some goblins on their way here.
01:41:34.095 --> 01:41:44.177
[Riv (DM)]: She kind of just pauses for a moment, looking at you guys.
01:41:46.739 --> 01:41:47.741
[Riv (DM)]: Come with me.
01:41:47.761 --> 01:41:51.947
[Riv (DM)]: She sort of just like points to you and just asks you to come with her.
01:41:53.550 --> 01:41:55.513
[Riv (DM)]: Try not to look too suspicious about it.
01:41:55.533 --> 01:42:01.202
[Riv (DM)]: Just sort of like, oh, why don't you just sort of come and help me with something back here and if you follow?
01:42:01.242 --> 01:42:09.135
[Lacer (Kai)]: Does Rio or Vale notice that I...
01:42:09.723 --> 01:42:14.834
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, I do go to follow, but I quickly look back to Ryo.
01:42:15.435 --> 01:42:16.417
[Lacer (Kai)]: He would have elf eyes.
01:42:16.517 --> 01:42:17.800
[Lacer (Kai)]: He would be able to see me, hopefully.
01:42:17.840 --> 01:42:20.004
[Riv (DM)]: It depends what the rest of you guys are doing.
01:42:20.024 --> 01:42:24.233
[Riv (DM)]: Have you taken a table to have a drink, or are you just sort of milling around, waiting?
01:42:24.273 --> 01:42:26.598
[Lacer (Kai)]: Actually, hold up.
01:42:27.800 --> 01:42:28.862
[Lacer (Kai)]: I take the two mates.
01:42:28.882 --> 01:42:29.524
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll be right back.
01:42:29.844 --> 01:42:30.386
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll be right back.
01:42:30.426 --> 01:42:31.107
[Lacer (Kai)]: I just gotta...
01:42:31.643 --> 01:42:34.026
[Lacer (Kai)]: Drop off a drink that I owe one of my mates.
01:42:35.107 --> 01:42:36.109
[Lacer (Kai)]: She just nods.
01:42:37.070 --> 01:42:39.112
[Lacer (Kai)]: So I head back to the table with Val.
01:42:39.212 --> 01:42:41.976
[Lacer (Kai)]: I go, you're going to need one of these to clear your head maybe.
01:42:45.420 --> 01:42:49.665
[Lacer (Kai)]: The barkeep wants me to check something out with the flying golds just quickly.
01:42:49.685 --> 01:42:52.068
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll just be headed out the back.
01:42:53.710 --> 01:42:55.212
[Lacer (Kai)]: Just keep your eye around.
01:42:55.432 --> 01:42:57.275
[Lacer (Kai)]: Something may be going down.
01:42:58.056 --> 01:43:01.600
[Lacer (Kai)]: It's kind of unusual, but I'll be back.
01:43:02.288 --> 01:43:12.198
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That puts me on high alert, and I instantly start checking out the rest of the patrons, looking for anyone who's looking like they're drinking, but not actually drinking.
01:43:12.659 --> 01:43:18.825
[Lacer (Kai)]: Spread the word too discreetly to the rest of the team, and I head back to the patron.
01:43:19.386 --> 01:43:22.069
[Riv (DM)]: Do you want to roll a position check, Valerian?
01:43:25.512 --> 01:43:26.153
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: In my one eye.
01:43:31.398 --> 01:43:33.000
[Riv (DM)]: Not terrible.
01:43:33.020 --> 01:43:33.801
[Riv (DM)]: Not terrible.
01:43:34.581 --> 01:43:36.503
[Riv (DM)]: Doesn't seem to be anyone super suspicious.
01:43:38.365 --> 01:43:40.588
[Riv (DM)]: There are a couple of people glancing your way as you came in.
01:43:42.850 --> 01:43:47.335
[Riv (DM)]: But there doesn't seem to be anyone like, you know, glaring at you with a hood or anything like that.
01:43:48.136 --> 01:43:49.777
[Riv (DM)]: Like Strider in the corner of the inn.
01:43:51.459 --> 01:43:53.381
[Riv (DM)]: Kai, you follow Mistress Sirin.
01:43:53.661 --> 01:43:55.563
[Riv (DM)]: She's sort of waiting for you outside the kitchen door.
01:43:56.104 --> 01:43:59.127
[Riv (DM)]: She opens it and just sort of dresses for you to come in.
01:44:00.862 --> 01:44:01.624
[Riv (DM)]: Thank you.
01:44:02.386 --> 01:44:03.328
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, she follows on after you.
01:44:04.932 --> 01:44:14.996
[Riv (DM)]: Once out of sight, she says, um, the Feingolds, um, friends of mine, really, they've stayed with us for quite some time, so I do trust them.
01:44:16.038 --> 01:44:17.301
[Riv (DM)]: Um...
01:44:17.281 --> 01:44:21.568
[Riv (DM)]: They left quite abruptly the other day and they asked me to give you this.
01:44:22.569 --> 01:44:31.683
[Riv (DM)]: And she goes over to a cabinet, reaches to the back of it and pulls out a folded bit of parchment with a stamp of wax on it.
01:44:34.347 --> 01:44:35.088
[Riv (DM)]: And she hands it to you.
01:44:36.370 --> 01:44:37.352
[Lacer (Kai)]: I accept it.
01:44:38.233 --> 01:44:40.116
[Lacer (Kai)]: Do you know anything about this?
01:44:41.513 --> 01:44:43.035
[Riv (DM)]: No, she didn't say anything.
01:44:46.098 --> 01:44:48.120
[Riv (DM)]: You guys aren't up to any trouble, are you?
01:44:48.300 --> 01:44:49.081
[Riv (DM)]: Or you're not in trouble?
01:44:49.541 --> 01:44:50.442
[Riv (DM)]: It seemed a bit odd.
01:44:50.462 --> 01:44:52.024
[Riv (DM)]: They've always been quite straight with me.
01:44:52.464 --> 01:44:54.727
[Lacer (Kai)]: Not really.
01:44:54.847 --> 01:44:58.371
[Lacer (Kai)]: This may be one of our special quests that we are doing.
01:44:59.211 --> 01:45:02.755
[Lacer (Kai)]: It's nothing major, really.
01:45:03.436 --> 01:45:04.116
[Lacer (Kai)]: Please, please.
01:45:04.757 --> 01:45:05.558
[Riv (DM)]: The least I know the better.
01:45:05.918 --> 01:45:06.559
[Riv (DM)]: I just want to...
01:45:06.826 --> 01:45:09.849
[Riv (DM)]: I run an establishment here, you know.
01:45:09.869 --> 01:45:13.453
[Riv (DM)]: I'm happy to help and host, but the less I know the better.
01:45:14.313 --> 01:45:14.934
[Lacer (Kai)]: I understand.
01:45:14.974 --> 01:45:16.976
[Lacer (Kai)]: Thank you for passing this on.
01:45:17.757 --> 01:45:22.902
[Lacer (Kai)]: We'll give you a heads up if anything does turn into Ori, but I don't think so.
01:45:22.922 --> 01:45:25.144
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, well.
01:45:27.366 --> 01:45:27.667
[Lacer (Kai)]: All good.
01:45:29.008 --> 01:45:29.689
[Lacer (Kai)]: Thank you so much.
01:45:30.589 --> 01:45:36.175
[Lacer (Kai)]: I stow the parchment away in my pouch so it's not seen.
01:45:38.703 --> 01:45:38.923
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Cool.
01:45:43.930 --> 01:45:50.638
[Lacer (Kai)]: I head back to the table where Vael is and I go, is everyone around?
01:45:50.658 --> 01:45:56.305
[Lacer (Kai)]: Ryu and Dondar and Erendor.
01:45:57.287 --> 01:45:59.750
[Riv (DM)]: Yep, unless anyone has done anything else.
01:45:59.790 --> 01:46:00.891
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, I assume everyone's here.
01:46:01.952 --> 01:46:03.875
[JC (Ryo)]: I've just made sure I've got my back to a wall.
01:46:04.235 --> 01:46:07.900
[JC (Ryo)]: Hopefully we've picked the table so I can have my back to a wall so I don't have to worry about anything behind me.
01:46:08.842 --> 01:46:22.737
[Lacer (Kai)]: I might just vaguely say Pine Gods are out of town at the moment, but we should get some rest once we've finished eating, and maybe meet up in Vale's room, or Dondar's room, anyway.
01:46:22.757 --> 01:46:30.486
[Lacer (Kai)]: Maybe Dondar's room, since he needs to learn some stuff.
01:46:30.506 --> 01:46:35.932
[Lacer (Kai)]: I guess I need to go back to Barkeep and pay for... Do we want double op rooms?
01:46:36.672 --> 01:46:37.313
[Lacer (Kai)]: Two op rooms?
01:46:40.364 --> 01:46:42.067
[Lacer (Kai)]: Or does everyone want individuals?
01:46:43.610 --> 01:46:44.432
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Double up safety.
01:46:45.193 --> 01:46:47.337
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, let's double up.
01:46:47.357 --> 01:46:48.579
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll pay for it.
01:46:48.619 --> 01:46:49.501
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll head to Barkeep.
01:46:49.521 --> 01:46:54.551
[Lacer (Kai)]: We'll need... Can we get a 3-better and a 2-better since our party's 5?
01:46:55.332 --> 01:46:56.955
[Lacer (Kai)]: Or is it double-double single?
01:46:57.695 --> 01:47:08.030
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, you can get a room with three, so there'll be like a bunk, so two bunks and then one by itself, one single, yeah, and then there'll be another room with two singles in it, that's fine.
01:47:08.591 --> 01:47:09.192
[Riv (DM)]: That'll be great.
01:47:09.573 --> 01:47:10.935
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, eight silver each.
01:47:12.297 --> 01:47:16.222
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, so that's, I'll take off 16 silver off my thing, I'll pay for it.
01:47:17.144 --> 01:47:20.449
[Lacer (Kai)]: Cool.
01:47:20.469 --> 01:47:20.669
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright.
01:47:24.775 --> 01:47:26.858
[Lacer (Kai)]: I guess, is everyone finished eating?
01:47:27.344 --> 01:47:29.862
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Mm-hmm.
01:47:29.882 --> 01:47:33.608
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Don't need to roleplay a male.
01:47:36.170 --> 01:47:38.132
[Riv (DM)]: Cool, so you're heading on upstairs to the rooms then, is it?
01:47:39.553 --> 01:47:40.034
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
01:47:41.015 --> 01:47:42.216
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
01:47:42.936 --> 01:47:44.618
[Riv (DM)]: Did you all want to gather in one room?
01:47:44.638 --> 01:47:45.879
[Riv (DM)]: Was it Dondar's room or something?
01:47:46.239 --> 01:47:52.365
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, I wanted to gather in Dondar's room while he's learning his Misty step.
01:47:52.746 --> 01:47:52.926
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
01:47:53.346 --> 01:47:55.568
[Riv (DM)]: So who's going in which room then?
01:47:55.808 --> 01:47:56.509
[Riv (DM)]: Who gets the bunks?
01:47:58.010 --> 01:47:59.051
[Riv (DM)]: I don't mind going bunk.
01:47:59.232 --> 01:47:59.872
[Riv (DM)]: Bunk is fine.
01:48:04.236 --> 01:48:04.436
[Lacer (Kai)]: Cool.
01:48:05.177 --> 01:48:06.058
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I don't mind.
01:48:08.637 --> 01:48:09.378
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: That's in bottom right.
01:48:10.159 --> 01:48:13.084
[Riv (DM)]: Sweet, and then Vale and Erendor can be in the other one with two singles in.
01:48:13.785 --> 01:48:14.566
[Riv (DM)]: Sounds good.
01:48:14.586 --> 01:48:14.967
[Riv (DM)]: Alrighty.
01:48:16.108 --> 01:48:23.740
[Riv (DM)]: So, in the room of the bunks, you make your way in and sort of...
01:48:25.843 --> 01:48:29.288
[Riv (DM)]: This is a very nicely furnished inn.
01:48:29.649 --> 01:48:32.734
[Riv (DM)]: It's not like a super wealthy aristocratic one, but very, very comfortable.
01:48:33.775 --> 01:48:37.581
[Riv (DM)]: Couple of nice bunks, desk to sit at, wardrobe, all that sort of stuff.
01:48:38.101 --> 01:48:38.983
[Riv (DM)]: What would you like to do, Kai?
01:48:40.227 --> 01:48:45.000
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'd like to close all the curtains in the windows and lock the door.
01:48:45.381 --> 01:48:45.823
[Lacer (Kai)]: Lock the door.
01:48:47.066 --> 01:48:48.029
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, yeah, no problem.
01:48:48.049 --> 01:48:50.435
[Riv (DM)]: There are, like, wooden shutters, I think, on the outside.
01:48:50.476 --> 01:48:52.802
[Riv (DM)]: You can close those and slide a curtain across.
01:48:54.065 --> 01:48:55.106
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, everybody.
01:48:55.126 --> 01:49:03.577
[Lacer (Kai)]: The mistress of the inn left a sealed parchment with me from the fine gods.
01:49:03.617 --> 01:49:05.980
[Lacer (Kai)]: They left very hurriedly out of town.
01:49:06.000 --> 01:49:13.710
[Lacer (Kai)]: I do not know why, but I'm sure this parchment will explain a lot, and I
01:49:15.091 --> 01:49:19.899
[Lacer (Kai)]: Unstowed the parchment that I hid in my pouches and laid on the table.
01:49:19.939 --> 01:49:30.417
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, so it's just one letter you can see with very nice scripted handwriting and this is what you can read.
01:50:03.978 --> 01:50:07.141
[Lacer (Kai)]: Interesting.
01:50:13.126 --> 01:50:16.009
[Lacer (Kai)]: Lady in deep black cloak.
01:50:17.350 --> 01:50:20.033
[Lacer (Kai)]: Well, that's something to keep our eyes out for.
01:50:23.796 --> 01:50:31.883
[Lacer (Kai)]: I guess we have to keep our wits amongst us and not stand out as we need to meet up with the Mawbreakers.
01:50:32.724 --> 01:50:33.765
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm whispering this.
01:50:36.530 --> 01:50:38.031
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Hmm.
01:50:38.051 --> 01:50:42.535
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Well, it was only a matter of time before we had some follow-up.
01:50:42.555 --> 01:50:50.442
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: If they hadn't got anything here from Darmouth in a couple of days that we've been here, I would be sorely disappointed in the competence of the Empire.
01:50:52.264 --> 01:50:56.007
[Lacer (Kai)]: Guess we've been lucky since we've been out of town a fair bit lately.
01:50:57.148 --> 01:51:00.151
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: If I'm honest, I'm actually surprised things haven't really popped off.
01:51:03.193 --> 01:51:03.273
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Hmm.
01:51:03.293 --> 01:51:05.035
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Must be trying to keep it a little bit down low.
01:51:08.727 --> 01:51:14.898
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, knowing this, how do we want to approach... how do we want to plan about tomorrow's activities?
01:51:16.541 --> 01:51:18.906
[JC (Ryo)]: Hmm, so do we head to... what's it called?
01:51:20.469 --> 01:51:22.212
[JC (Ryo)]: Farhaven, or do we go find Darak?
01:51:24.737 --> 01:51:25.037
[Unmatched Speaker]: Darak.
01:51:25.959 --> 01:51:29.105
[JC (Ryo)]: Hmm.
01:51:29.125 --> 01:51:31.950
[JC (Ryo)]: Darak's the one that's organising the thing in the...
01:51:33.938 --> 01:51:42.145
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yes, we did accept to help them, you see, we can't just bail on them now, you know what I mean, and chase the Finegolds to Farhaven.
01:51:42.886 --> 01:51:43.546
[Lacer (Kai)]: Maybe...
01:51:44.027 --> 01:51:46.689
[Lacer (Kai)]: The Finegolds are drawing heat, they're drawing attention away.
01:51:47.310 --> 01:51:53.315
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, so we don't want to bring attention back to them if we follow them to Farhaven.
01:51:55.157 --> 01:51:58.700
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Sure, we'll meet them up at Val Miriel if we end up there at some stage.
01:51:59.981 --> 01:52:02.443
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: We just need to know the status of the...
01:52:03.875 --> 01:52:06.518
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: The plan, assessment, what's going on?
01:52:07.860 --> 01:52:08.200
[Lacer (Kai)]: I agree.
01:52:08.601 --> 01:52:12.265
[Lacer (Kai)]: Let's, I guess, let's have a good rest tonight.
01:52:13.827 --> 01:52:20.255
[Lacer (Kai)]: Don't stress, but we'll keep our eyes open because it feels like shit will go down sooner or later.
01:52:25.721 --> 01:52:29.005
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright.
01:52:29.125 --> 01:52:33.190
[Lacer (Kai)]: How's that Misty Step book going, Dundar?
01:52:35.262 --> 01:52:38.106
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Wow, if you could stop talking, I'd let me concentrate.
01:52:39.408 --> 01:52:40.089
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm so sorry.
01:52:41.131 --> 01:52:42.874
[Lacer (Kai)]: We're whispering, we're whispering.
01:52:46.319 --> 01:52:47.401
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: How much did it cost again?
01:52:49.724 --> 01:52:52.669
[Riv (DM)]: It is 50 gold per level of the spell.
01:52:53.550 --> 01:52:56.274
[Riv (DM)]: This is a second level spell, and it's not enchantment, right?
01:52:56.314 --> 01:52:59.920
[Riv (DM)]: It should be... What is Misty Step?
01:53:02.650 --> 01:53:05.034
[Unmatched Speaker]: Check D&D Beyond, I can't remember.
01:53:05.194 --> 01:53:05.955
[Riv (DM)]: I can't remember either.
01:53:09.821 --> 01:53:10.482
[Riv (DM)]: Conjuration?
01:53:12.225 --> 01:53:12.285
[Riv (DM)]: Hm.
01:53:12.305 --> 01:53:12.626
[Riv (DM)]: There you go.
01:53:13.206 --> 01:53:15.150
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, so it'll be 200 gold.
01:53:15.270 --> 01:53:16.992
[Riv (DM)]: Sorry, 100 gold since it's two.
01:53:17.513 --> 01:53:18.294
[Riv (DM)]: That's the second level spell.
01:53:19.316 --> 01:53:21.560
[Riv (DM)]: So you've got 175 golds worth of paper.
01:53:21.580 --> 01:53:28.250
[Riv (DM)]: So yeah, just cross it off and you're good to go.
01:53:28.330 --> 01:53:30.193
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Do I add that in D&D Beyond or here?
01:53:30.899 --> 01:53:31.840
[Riv (DM)]: Change it here, yeah.
01:53:32.260 --> 01:53:35.764
[Riv (DM)]: Change your, um, that flying paper or whatever you've got in your inventory.
01:53:35.904 --> 01:53:38.627
[Riv (DM)]: Just modify that and it'll sync up with D&D Beyond later.
01:53:39.688 --> 01:53:41.090
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, I meant adding the spell.
01:53:41.690 --> 01:53:42.371
[Riv (DM)]: Oh yeah, cool.
01:53:42.431 --> 01:53:43.292
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, add it to this one.
01:53:47.736 --> 01:53:50.419
[Riv (DM)]: Um...
01:53:50.439 --> 01:53:51.500
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
01:53:51.520 --> 01:53:53.222
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
01:53:53.242 --> 01:53:53.583
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright.
01:53:53.823 --> 01:53:54.664
[Lacer (Kai)]: Anyone else?
01:53:55.024 --> 01:53:55.945
[Riv (DM)]: Yep, anything for the night?
01:53:56.330 --> 01:53:58.553
[Lacer (Kai)]: Just pop out and go for a bath.
01:53:59.254 --> 01:54:01.778
[Lacer (Kai)]: Use the local washer for the grime.
01:54:01.858 --> 01:54:03.640
[Lacer (Kai)]: So much travel, so much combat.
01:54:04.161 --> 01:54:04.682
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, no problem.
01:54:05.022 --> 01:54:08.407
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, you can find facilities inside the inn if you want, or you can go and find a bathhouse.
01:54:09.749 --> 01:54:10.170
[Riv (DM)]: Either way.
01:54:10.190 --> 01:54:11.532
[Riv (DM)]: Just use the inn facilities.
01:54:11.972 --> 01:54:12.493
[Riv (DM)]: Yep.
01:54:12.513 --> 01:54:14.796
[Riv (DM)]: Either way, you can get all nicely cleaned up.
01:54:15.237 --> 01:54:20.024
[Riv (DM)]: Clean out your gear, have a nice relaxing evening before you call it in.
01:54:20.705 --> 01:54:22.087
[Riv (DM)]: So much better, nice and clean.
01:54:22.628 --> 01:54:22.928
[Unmatched Speaker]: Yeah.
01:54:24.950 --> 01:54:28.816
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Staggered Watch tonight.
01:54:28.837 --> 01:54:29.297
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alrighty.
01:54:31.581 --> 01:54:33.705
[Lacer (Kai)]: We're not on red alert, but we're definitely on yellow.
01:54:35.948 --> 01:54:37.171
[Lacer (Kai)]: Sounds good, sounds good.
01:54:37.611 --> 01:54:38.593
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll take first.
01:54:40.997 --> 01:54:41.898
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'll take the second.
01:54:43.000 --> 01:54:49.371
[Lacer (Kai)]: And while I'm doing that, I will, during the sub, generally have a squiz at the alchemy board.
01:54:51.545 --> 01:54:55.849
[JC (Ryo)]: I'll take the third and seeing as how after the first two I should be done anyway, so.
01:54:57.271 --> 01:54:57.992
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
01:54:58.012 --> 01:54:58.252
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
01:54:59.673 --> 01:55:10.344
[Riv (DM)]: Vaeleran, if you're up first, roll a position check.
01:55:10.364 --> 01:55:11.265
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
01:55:11.405 --> 01:55:11.585
[Riv (DM)]: Quiet?
01:55:12.086 --> 01:55:13.467
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, it seems quiet.
01:55:14.028 --> 01:55:16.510
[Riv (DM)]: You start hearing the people down in the end start to leave.
01:55:17.892 --> 01:55:21.315
[Riv (DM)]: But nothing else seems to happen out of the ordinary tonight.
01:55:23.270 --> 01:55:25.253
[Riv (DM)]: Next up would be Kai.
01:55:25.814 --> 01:55:27.738
[Riv (DM)]: You said you wanted to start reading the book.
01:55:28.379 --> 01:55:30.582
[Riv (DM)]: Do you want to just roll a straight Intelligence check for me?
01:55:39.177 --> 01:55:41.160
[Lacer (Kai)]: I have no idea what I'm reading.
01:55:42.541 --> 01:55:43.443
[Riv (DM)]: It's quite a dense book.
01:55:44.806 --> 01:55:45.448
[Riv (DM)]: Lots of jargon.
01:55:45.909 --> 01:55:53.165
[Riv (DM)]: You know, as a droid you're used to more feeling the spirit of the natural world around you.
01:55:53.726 --> 01:55:55.410
[Riv (DM)]: Whereas this is a lot more technical, scientific.
01:55:55.851 --> 01:55:56.633
[Riv (DM)]: So it's a bit confusing.
01:55:56.773 --> 01:56:01.123
[Riv (DM)]: But you start picking up the odd word that looks familiar after reading a few pages.
01:56:05.677 --> 01:56:06.017
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
01:56:06.037 --> 01:56:07.459
[Riv (DM)]: Roll Obsession check.
01:56:08.640 --> 01:56:16.047
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'd like to constantly cast... tap myself and cast Guidance.
01:56:16.067 --> 01:56:16.147
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yep.
01:56:16.167 --> 01:56:17.748
[Lacer (Kai)]: And I would go Perception.
01:56:23.253 --> 01:56:25.515
[Lacer (Kai)]: Wait, does that... that's already added a d4?
01:56:25.696 --> 01:56:27.958
[Lacer (Kai)]: Mm-hmm.
01:56:27.978 --> 01:56:31.381
[Riv (DM)]: It, um... Yeah, I think it did.
01:56:32.282 --> 01:56:32.562
[Riv (DM)]: Maybe?
01:56:33.622 --> 01:56:34.785
[Riv (DM)]: No, I didn't.
01:56:34.845 --> 01:56:36.007
[Riv (DM)]: That's just a rolled 4.
01:56:36.027 --> 01:56:41.780
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, so you've got your Wisdom is plus 4 and your Proficiency is plus 2, so you need to roll a d4.
01:56:41.841 --> 01:56:47.213
[Riv (DM)]: You can, when you collect the skill, you can add a mod, so you could type 1d4 to the mod and it will automatically do that.
01:56:48.275 --> 01:56:49.538
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, cool.
01:56:51.222 --> 01:56:51.422
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
01:56:52.604 --> 01:56:53.445
[Riv (DM)]: Again, nice and quiet.
01:56:54.186 --> 01:56:57.531
[Riv (DM)]: Basically no noise now down from the bottom parts of the tavern.
01:56:58.012 --> 01:57:04.141
[Riv (DM)]: The odd creaks of wood as people move around every now and then outside in the other rooms, getting up to the loo or something.
01:57:06.405 --> 01:57:08.107
[Riv (DM)]: Nothing too stressful.
01:57:08.808 --> 01:57:08.909
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
01:57:09.209 --> 01:57:13.435
[Riv (DM)]: And last one will be Rio, I suppose.
01:57:14.156 --> 01:57:15.058
[Riv (DM)]: Feel free to roll the session.
01:57:19.104 --> 01:57:19.204
Okay.
01:57:23.048 --> 01:57:24.550
[JC (Ryo)]: She's 12.
01:57:24.570 --> 01:57:24.810
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
01:57:26.391 --> 01:57:37.623
[Riv (DM)]: In this watch, as you go to sleep, Kai, just sort of pondering the dense text of the alchemy book that you're trying to just run through in your mind.
01:57:41.627 --> 01:57:46.992
[Riv (DM)]: Bit restless, bit sleepless as you're lying there in the bed, looking up at the ceiling above you.
01:57:47.773 --> 01:57:50.676
[Riv (DM)]: I don't know if you're top bunk or bottom bunk.
01:57:50.892 --> 01:57:51.953
[Riv (DM)]: Top, top.
01:57:52.134 --> 01:57:52.614
[Riv (DM)]: Okay, cool.
01:57:52.674 --> 01:57:53.956
[Riv (DM)]: Top bunk.
01:57:56.459 --> 01:58:10.857
[Riv (DM)]: The roof above you starts to become transparent as you're sort of locked in, staring above, and it just almost starts fading away, revealing the night sky and the stars shining and poking through the black void.
01:58:11.998 --> 01:58:18.486
[Riv (DM)]: Moon off in the distance, far below you, far below your line of sight as it's picking up over the horizon.
01:58:18.466 --> 01:58:29.117
[Riv (DM)]: And once again, as has happened a few times now, you feel yourself lifting up through the ceiling, passing straight through it, and just the world dropping beneath you as you're sort of flying and flying and flying.
01:58:31.004 --> 01:58:51.004
[Riv (DM)]: The globe, the orb, the blue orb beneath you surrounded by stars and black and the moon just a constant fixture in front of you just shining brightly this massive perfectly full round moon form of this female figure starts to once again appear in front of you.
01:58:52.587 --> 01:58:56.531
[Riv (DM)]: Coalescing into an unfamiliar form that you've seen a few times in your visions.
01:58:57.632 --> 01:59:06.059
[Riv (DM)]: Very tall, slender, long, long silvery hair that stretches all the way down and wraps around her feet and just sort of dangles beneath her in the void.
01:59:06.560 --> 01:59:14.527
[Riv (DM)]: Very, you know, flimsy, wispy, silky, white clothing, barely concealing any part of her body.
01:59:15.127 --> 01:59:19.271
[Riv (DM)]: And she kind of looks at you with open arms, ready to say something.
01:59:19.812 --> 01:59:22.594
[Riv (DM)]: And a strange expression crosses her face as she sort of like
01:59:22.574 --> 01:59:44.041
[Riv (DM)]: Cocks an eyebrow and she starts to say something to you like she holds up a hand almost in a warning to say something to you and then immediately something just like lightning flashes through your mind and you're wide awake instantly and the rest of you also wake up instantly from your bed.
01:59:44.641 --> 01:59:47.485
[Riv (DM)]: Erendor feels this burning
01:59:47.465 --> 02:00:15.514
[Riv (DM)]: Like from underneath his pillow is the dagger of warning that he pulls out has triggered and you look up not surprised by the fact that there are people standing in your room um with weapons drawn and one of them kind of seeing your bolt up instantly not being surprised just swears like curses under his breath and looks around at you jumping up and why don't we take a break there and we'll come back
02:00:19.780 --> 02:00:22.484
[Riv (DM)]: So, we'll see what happens with that.
02:00:23.785 --> 02:00:26.609
[Riv (DM)]: Give you guys like, what do you want, like 15 minutes or something?
02:00:27.390 --> 02:00:27.710
[Riv (DM)]: Have a drink?
02:00:27.810 --> 02:00:29.372
[Riv (DM)]: However long you need.
02:00:29.413 --> 02:00:30.554
[Riv (DM)]: How much time you need, Riv?
02:00:32.456 --> 02:00:36.762
[Riv (DM)]: No, I'm good to go, but yeah, don't want to drag for too long.
02:00:36.782 --> 02:00:37.103
[Riv (DM)]: Question.
02:00:37.123 --> 02:00:37.323
[Riv (DM)]: Yep?
02:00:38.384 --> 02:00:40.106
[JC (Ryo)]: Is this it right at the end of your shift?
02:00:40.146 --> 02:00:42.109
[JC (Ryo)]: Would it be like four hours done, or?
02:00:43.304 --> 02:00:51.853
[Riv (DM)]: It would be probably mid your shift so I don't think any of you would have had a long rest yet technically.
02:00:52.293 --> 02:00:55.116
[JC (Ryo)]: I only need four hours though that's what I'm asking.
02:00:55.156 --> 02:00:59.460
[Riv (DM)]: Cool yeah and so the first couple of watches I think you'll be alright then if you were doing your trance.
02:01:00.582 --> 02:01:01.923
[JC (Ryo)]: I can hit my long rest button.
02:01:02.163 --> 02:01:02.624
[Riv (DM)]: Go for it man.
02:01:03.565 --> 02:01:06.748
[Riv (DM)]: I've recovered nothing because I couldn't sleep.
02:01:06.768 --> 02:01:10.932
[Riv (DM)]: Only the full-blooded elf I think would have recovered by this point.
02:01:12.616 --> 02:01:13.820
[JC (Ryo)]: Alright, yeah, I need to stretch.
02:01:13.880 --> 02:01:15.405
[JC (Ryo)]: I've got a stupidly sore back.
02:01:15.425 --> 02:01:15.827
[Riv (DM)]: All good, man.
02:01:16.308 --> 02:01:16.469
[JC (Ryo)]: Sweet.
02:01:16.489 --> 02:01:17.873
[Riv (DM)]: Let's take 10 or something.
02:01:18.134 --> 02:01:21.385
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, we'll come back in about half an hour and, yeah, see what happens.
02:01:21.566 --> 02:01:22.930
[JC (Ryo)]: Alright, cool.
02:02:37.936 --> 02:23:06.220
================ Session Break ================
02:25:35.240 --> 02:25:45.470
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, I just switched the live stream back on, so let's go.
02:25:45.510 --> 02:25:50.696
[Riv (DM)]: Valeran and Dondar, you're in a room, and the other three are in the other room.
02:25:51.536 --> 02:25:55.440
[Riv (DM)]: You've all been alerted and woken up by this weird pulsing feeling.
02:25:55.480 --> 02:26:02.968
[Riv (DM)]: You're not sure what caused it, but you are certain that there are people currently trying to do you harm while you're sleeping.
02:26:03.472 --> 02:26:12.363
[Riv (DM)]: Um, and eyes lock open, see a couple of people in your room, and as soon as this happens, there's people that are in your room.
02:26:12.984 --> 02:26:14.806
[Riv (DM)]: Um, you can't make out many features of them.
02:26:16.008 --> 02:26:18.531
[Riv (DM)]: Hoods up, black hoods, like a black covering across their face.
02:26:19.172 --> 02:26:20.373
[Riv (DM)]: Um, dark sort of leather armor.
02:26:20.754 --> 02:26:24.759
[Riv (DM)]: Um, they kind of look around, and so there's one in each room, I should specify.
02:26:25.299 --> 02:26:28.163
[Riv (DM)]: Um, so they don't necessarily like to see each other, but...
02:26:28.143 --> 02:26:34.691
[Riv (DM)]: Seeing you wake up, they swear and will immediately book it and just dive out the window.
02:26:36.193 --> 02:26:36.833
[Riv (DM)]: What are you guys doing?
02:26:38.996 --> 02:26:40.998
[Riv (DM)]: I can't sleep in the window.
02:26:41.038 --> 02:26:43.141
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
02:26:43.161 --> 02:26:45.143
[Riv (DM)]: I think sleep is like a...
02:26:45.163 --> 02:26:45.944
[JC (Ryo)]: Which room is this in?
02:26:46.645 --> 02:26:47.226
[Riv (DM)]: Both of your rooms.
02:26:47.386 --> 02:26:49.088
[Riv (DM)]: You would have had one person in each room.
02:26:51.194 --> 02:26:52.896
[Riv (DM)]: So the sleep spell goes off.
02:26:52.996 --> 02:26:54.417
[Riv (DM)]: Do you have spell slots left?
02:26:54.457 --> 02:26:56.760
[Riv (DM)]: I have a level 2 left.
02:26:57.260 --> 02:26:57.740
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
02:26:57.760 --> 02:26:59.522
[Riv (DM)]: The sleep spell goes off.
02:27:03.146 --> 02:27:04.047
[Riv (DM)]: I can see them right?
02:27:04.087 --> 02:27:06.229
[Riv (DM)]: Because I've got...
02:27:06.249 --> 02:27:09.312
[Riv (DM)]: They've booked it and just dived straight through the window head first.
02:27:11.114 --> 02:27:14.037
[Riv (DM)]: And you're up on like the second story of the inn.
02:27:15.238 --> 02:27:20.543
[Lacer (Kai)]: I was going to poke my head out and cast sleep since it's AoE as they land.
02:27:20.995 --> 02:27:22.917
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, cool.
02:27:22.937 --> 02:27:25.159
[Riv (DM)]: So you want to run over to the window and cast a sleep spell out?
02:27:25.780 --> 02:27:25.940
[Riv (DM)]: Yep.
02:27:26.200 --> 02:27:26.441
[Riv (DM)]: Sweet.
02:27:26.521 --> 02:27:28.843
[Riv (DM)]: Roll a perception check first to see if you can spot them.
02:27:30.485 --> 02:27:34.088
[Lacer (Kai)]: Is it with advantage because I can see in the dark for 300 meters?
02:27:35.049 --> 02:27:36.571
[Lacer (Kai)]: No, it's just not disadvantage.
02:27:36.771 --> 02:27:39.894
[Riv (DM)]: Are the rest of you guys doing anything while this is happening?
02:27:40.615 --> 02:27:47.222
[JC (Ryo)]: Can I smack off a hunter's mark before they get out the window?
02:27:48.350 --> 02:27:49.531
[Riv (DM)]: Hunter's Mark is an action, eh?
02:27:49.752 --> 02:27:50.572
[Riv (DM)]: Or a bonus action?
02:27:51.634 --> 02:27:52.394
[Riv (DM)]: Bonus.
02:27:52.414 --> 02:27:53.275
[Riv (DM)]: I think they would have been...
02:27:53.315 --> 02:27:55.958
[Riv (DM)]: They would have been out the window first, probably.
02:27:57.040 --> 02:28:00.203
[Riv (DM)]: But you could run over and look for them to see if you want to cast it while they're out.
02:28:01.084 --> 02:28:02.165
[Riv (DM)]: Yep, alright.
02:28:02.185 --> 02:28:03.547
[Riv (DM)]: Cool, so you're running over as well to have a look.
02:28:03.567 --> 02:28:04.928
[Riv (DM)]: You can also roll a perception check.
02:28:06.470 --> 02:28:11.235
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: In my room, I'm moving towards the window but shield up so I can just T-hole.
02:28:11.688 --> 02:28:13.750
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: In case return arrows come through.
02:28:14.311 --> 02:28:16.333
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: As I glance out to see what the hell's going on.
02:28:17.174 --> 02:28:18.515
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Cool.
02:28:18.535 --> 02:28:18.776
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Alright.
02:28:21.018 --> 02:28:24.542
[Riv (DM)]: I suppose I can't fire hideous laughter at one of them?
02:28:26.764 --> 02:28:33.031
[Riv (DM)]: You'd have to shoulder one of the guys at the window out of the way probably to get a good proper look.
02:28:33.171 --> 02:28:34.673
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: There's only one guy at the window, right?
02:28:35.274 --> 02:28:40.159
[Riv (DM)]: So they've both dived out and then Kai is standing at one window and
02:28:41.320 --> 02:28:41.901
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, sorry.
02:28:42.201 --> 02:28:43.443
[Riv (DM)]: You were in the other room with Velerand, yeah.
02:28:43.624 --> 02:28:46.869
[Riv (DM)]: So, you would be able to go to the window and roll a perception as well if you want.
02:28:48.992 --> 02:28:49.834
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
02:28:49.854 --> 02:28:52.779
[Riv (DM)]: Go for it.
02:28:57.747 --> 02:28:58.047
[Riv (DM)]: All right.
02:29:00.237 --> 02:29:06.786
[Riv (DM)]: So, what you guys see, you can see two figures, they've separated on either side.
02:29:06.826 --> 02:29:11.332
[Riv (DM)]: There's an alleyway out, there's like the back part of the inn, and they've separated going different directions.
02:29:13.134 --> 02:29:20.524
[Riv (DM)]: Kai, you do see one going to the left, the dude that was in your room, and Donda, you see one going right to the other room, the one that was in your room going to the right.
02:29:20.504 --> 02:29:24.290
[Riv (DM)]: So, given this, what are you guys doing?
02:29:24.310 --> 02:29:25.032
[Riv (DM)]: You're casting your spells?
02:29:25.733 --> 02:29:35.529
[Riv (DM)]: So they would have double dashed, so they're probably 30 or 40 feet away at this point from the inn as you've taken time to get out of bed, run to the window.
02:29:36.290 --> 02:29:37.973
[Riv (DM)]: So, 30-40 feet away.
02:29:37.953 --> 02:29:38.634
[Lacer (Kai)]: That's cool.
02:29:38.774 --> 02:29:42.678
[Lacer (Kai)]: I have a 90 feet sleep spell, so I would cast it at second level.
02:29:42.979 --> 02:29:43.860
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright.
02:29:43.880 --> 02:29:45.642
[Lacer (Kai)]: To hit one of them.
02:29:45.742 --> 02:29:46.222
[Lacer (Kai)]: Just the one guy?
02:29:46.603 --> 02:29:48.325
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, because they're apart now, right?
02:29:48.425 --> 02:29:51.709
[Lacer (Kai)]: They've already double dashed, so I've only got 20 feet sphere.
02:29:51.729 --> 02:29:55.153
[Lacer (Kai)]: Correct, yeah.
02:29:55.233 --> 02:29:56.214
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, I'm gonna roll.
02:29:57.235 --> 02:29:57.515
[Lacer (Kai)]: Go for it.
02:30:01.560 --> 02:30:02.982
[Riv (DM)]: I'll have to place it, okay.
02:30:04.503 --> 02:30:06.105
[Riv (DM)]: You can just click the template, I think.
02:30:06.125 --> 02:30:06.846
[Riv (DM)]: Don't worry about it.
02:30:10.302 --> 02:30:11.264
[Riv (DM)]: I just roll damage?
02:30:11.604 --> 02:30:12.686
[Riv (DM)]: Yep, roll the damage.
02:30:13.467 --> 02:30:14.890
[Riv (DM)]: It's just to see how many hits plinks.
02:30:17.314 --> 02:30:23.704
[Riv (DM)]: Okay, the spell goes off and you center it perfectly on top of the guy, but he just keeps on running.
02:30:26.669 --> 02:30:27.150
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Dondar.
02:30:27.170 --> 02:30:31.057
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Sorry, so they're greater than 30 feet away from me?
02:30:32.479 --> 02:30:34.943
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, probably roughly 30 or 40 feet away.
02:30:36.188 --> 02:30:38.751
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Is it 30 or is it 40?
02:30:39.612 --> 02:30:54.747
[Riv (DM)]: Okay, so they've got 60 feet of movement, so they would have been diving out of the window say 20 feet or so of movement to like dive out the window and land below and then of the remaining 60 maybe 40 feet away, yeah.
02:30:56.149 --> 02:30:56.950
[Riv (DM)]: So we'll say 40.
02:31:00.794 --> 02:31:03.917
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: So I don't think I can do anything without attempting to kill them.
02:31:07.525 --> 02:31:11.791
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Um, but then again, why not?
02:31:11.811 --> 02:31:17.780
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Uh, can I fire, um, uh, Firebolt, Cantrip?
02:31:17.800 --> 02:31:18.481
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah man, go for it.
02:31:22.347 --> 02:31:23.589
[Riv (DM)]: Um, Dwarves have Nightvision, yeah?
02:31:23.970 --> 02:31:24.691
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, they must do.
02:31:24.711 --> 02:31:25.111
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
02:31:25.272 --> 02:31:26.293
[Riv (DM)]: Cool, so roll an attack.
02:31:31.353 --> 02:31:31.614
[Riv (DM)]: Right.
02:31:32.876 --> 02:31:39.329
[Riv (DM)]: The Fireball lashes on down the street, sort of lighting it up as it goes, but just smashes against the stone above his head.
02:31:39.609 --> 02:31:44.138
[Riv (DM)]: He sort of like ducks instinctively, and they are booking it towards the end of the alleyway.
02:31:45.060 --> 02:31:45.321
[Riv (DM)]: All right.
02:31:45.481 --> 02:31:51.673
[Riv (DM)]: The rest of you guys, what are you doing?
02:31:53.138 --> 02:31:58.744
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Did we have enough time when we woke up to get a look at them other than just being shapes?
02:31:59.805 --> 02:32:05.311
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, so you would have seen dark black hoods up, black face covering and black leather armor.
02:32:07.453 --> 02:32:08.274
[Riv (DM)]: Very nondescript.
02:32:09.795 --> 02:32:11.117
[Riv (DM)]: Clean or aged?
02:32:13.719 --> 02:32:17.323
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, like a bit on the rough side, not like immaculate.
02:32:21.472 --> 02:32:27.641
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: They ran when we woke up, so...
02:32:27.661 --> 02:32:35.813
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'll probably just yell out hole so the party doesn't go chasing off down alleyways after characters that are potential bait.
02:32:39.538 --> 02:32:40.459
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
02:32:41.861 --> 02:32:44.024
[JC (Ryo)]: I'm assuming with my perception I didn't see them.
02:32:44.385 --> 02:32:45.266
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, not quite.
02:32:46.808 --> 02:32:48.711
[Riv (DM)]: We weren't sure exactly which alley he would have run down.
02:32:50.480 --> 02:32:57.707
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, I take note of the one that I was casting sleep on and the direction he went off to, but I do not chase.
02:32:57.847 --> 02:33:03.352
[Lacer (Kai)]: I go to unlock my door and meet up with Valorant next door.
02:33:04.133 --> 02:33:05.694
[JC (Ryo)]: Okay.
02:33:05.974 --> 02:33:09.117
[JC (Ryo)]: I stop him from doing that, grab two swords and say, let me go first.
02:33:11.099 --> 02:33:11.499
[Riv (DM)]: Alrighty.
02:33:14.122 --> 02:33:14.282
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
02:33:14.302 --> 02:33:14.883
[Riv (DM)]: Open up the door.
02:33:15.683 --> 02:33:16.484
[Riv (DM)]: Look out into the hallway.
02:33:17.005 --> 02:33:17.585
[Riv (DM)]: Perception check.
02:33:18.186 --> 02:33:18.546
[Riv (DM)]: Rio?
02:33:26.474 --> 02:33:27.455
[Riv (DM)]: Seems empty.
02:33:29.578 --> 02:33:32.362
[Riv (DM)]: Can't see any dark shadows lingering or loitering.
02:33:34.244 --> 02:33:43.377
[Lacer (Kai)]: As you look, poking your head out, I would like to tap Rio on the shoulder and give you Vigilant Blessing.
02:33:52.068 --> 02:33:52.249
[JC (Ryo)]: Cool.
02:33:53.150 --> 02:33:54.832
[Lacer (Kai)]: And maybe some Guidance as well.
02:33:54.892 --> 02:33:56.194
[Lacer (Kai)]: How about that?
02:33:58.638 --> 02:33:59.539
[Riv (DM)]: Okay.
02:33:59.559 --> 02:34:00.480
[Riv (DM)]: Out into the hallway, Rio.
02:34:01.221 --> 02:34:01.941
[Riv (DM)]: Looking left and right.
02:34:05.985 --> 02:34:06.786
[JC (Ryo)]: Look left, right.
02:34:07.427 --> 02:34:08.307
[JC (Ryo)]: Assume I see nothing.
02:34:08.768 --> 02:34:08.928
[JC (Ryo)]: Yep.
02:34:10.670 --> 02:34:14.774
[JC (Ryo)]: Go to the room with that, um, Valoran and Dondarrion.
02:34:15.494 --> 02:34:18.077
[JC (Ryo)]: Knock on the door and go, we were ambushed, you guys okay?
02:34:19.959 --> 02:34:21.500
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I open the door.
02:34:21.901 --> 02:34:23.002
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Had a go at us as well.
02:34:24.243 --> 02:34:28.307
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: They weren't too committed but they ran but we've definitely been made by somebody.
02:34:29.772 --> 02:34:32.735
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Quick look for the party.
02:34:34.137 --> 02:34:34.597
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: What do you think?
02:34:35.058 --> 02:34:36.019
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Thieves or something more?
02:34:38.902 --> 02:34:42.806
[Lacer (Kai)]: From what they look like, just black hooded figures.
02:34:44.007 --> 02:34:45.048
[Lacer (Kai)]: Not quite sure.
02:34:45.088 --> 02:34:47.911
[Lacer (Kai)]: They didn't look very well dressed.
02:34:48.272 --> 02:34:49.053
[Lacer (Kai)]: Could be thieves.
02:34:49.393 --> 02:34:50.374
[Lacer (Kai)]: Could be anyone really.
02:34:50.534 --> 02:34:52.757
[Lacer (Kai)]: This is a town of thieves, right?
02:34:52.777 --> 02:34:57.822
[Lacer (Kai)]: There's more than one thieves type of group around.
02:34:58.426 --> 02:34:59.648
[JC (Ryo)]: I'm thinking Thieves.
02:35:00.248 --> 02:35:07.178
[JC (Ryo)]: Assassins, wouldn't they try and get their job done?
02:35:09.981 --> 02:35:11.063
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Have they taken anything?
02:35:13.506 --> 02:35:14.688
[Lacer (Kai)]: That's a good question.
02:35:14.708 --> 02:35:24.521
[Lacer (Kai)]: I head into Val's room and then with everybody, lock the door and check that everyone has their possessions.
02:35:25.282 --> 02:35:25.382
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
02:35:25.402 --> 02:35:26.323
[Riv (DM)]: Roll investigation.
02:35:34.876 --> 02:35:35.877
[JC (Ryo)]: Everyone or just Kai?
02:35:36.958 --> 02:35:37.699
[Riv (DM)]: You can if you want to as well.
02:35:41.422 --> 02:35:47.547
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Did you say that when we woke up we thought they... we knew they were going to do us harm?
02:35:48.949 --> 02:35:50.870
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, they had daggers drawn.
02:35:50.930 --> 02:35:58.817
[Riv (DM)]: The power of the dagger, like the Dagger of Warning that Erendor carries, you don't really know how it works.
02:35:59.738 --> 02:36:04.022
[Riv (DM)]: The only thing that happened to you was you woke up and you're convinced that there was someone about to do you harm.
02:36:05.302 --> 02:36:08.346
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: So not only thieves.
02:36:12.691 --> 02:36:15.615
[Riv (DM)]: You guys can have a quick look around, put yourselves down, check your positions.
02:36:15.835 --> 02:36:20.400
[Riv (DM)]: Ryo and Kai has a quick look through the room as well, checking, you know, each other's bags and stuff.
02:36:20.801 --> 02:36:22.963
[Riv (DM)]: Doesn't seem like anything is missing.
02:36:22.984 --> 02:36:29.251
[Lacer (Kai)]: There must have been some sort of thief or something because I locked the door before we went to sleep so they must have picked it open.
02:36:29.652 --> 02:36:30.312
[Lacer (Kai)]: You guys too?
02:36:30.332 --> 02:36:31.334
[Lacer (Kai)]: Probably came through the window.
02:36:32.155 --> 02:36:34.077
[Lacer (Kai)]: Oh no I closed the windows as well.
02:36:36.925 --> 02:36:38.967
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: They smashed through the windows when they went out.
02:36:39.949 --> 02:36:41.150
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, that's true.
02:36:41.771 --> 02:36:43.934
[Riv (DM)]: Wooden shutters that you can see are ajar.
02:36:48.359 --> 02:36:53.705
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm in favour of displacing just in case we are on yellow alert and that just pushed it to red for me.
02:36:55.808 --> 02:36:56.829
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Can we get out of the city?
02:36:57.870 --> 02:36:58.511
[Lacer (Kai)]: I don't think so.
02:36:58.952 --> 02:37:01.535
[Lacer (Kai)]: Let's just head straight to the Mawbreakers at night, hey?
02:37:02.396 --> 02:37:05.700
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Maybe indirectly, but let's just move and see if we're followed.
02:37:07.233 --> 02:37:17.171
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, in that case, Vale, with your good eye, everyone group around, I will share with everybody Eyes of the Night.
02:37:21.599 --> 02:37:21.799
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
02:37:24.108 --> 02:37:39.337
[Riv (DM)]: So just to clarify the long rest rules, you can have up to one hour of non-rest, I suppose, before the long rest becomes invalidated.
02:37:39.357 --> 02:37:43.906
[Riv (DM)]: So if whatever you plan to do now takes longer than an hour, then you wouldn't be able to rest.
02:37:45.569 --> 02:37:46.791
[Riv (DM)]: So just something to consider.
02:37:54.871 --> 02:37:56.293
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: We can't stay here.
02:38:02.659 --> 02:38:04.101
[Lacer (Kai)]: So, what's the plan?
02:38:08.846 --> 02:38:10.268
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Personally, I'm in favour of moving.
02:38:10.308 --> 02:38:15.193
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: This area is compromised.
02:38:16.074 --> 02:38:17.836
[Lacer (Kai)]: Let's make... Alright, we can.
02:38:17.936 --> 02:38:20.018
[Lacer (Kai)]: You've got any idea where we should go?
02:38:21.854 --> 02:38:26.420
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Either the Mawbreakers or to the Child Thief hideout.
02:38:28.803 --> 02:38:30.385
[Lacer (Kai)]: Is that more than an hour from here?
02:38:30.846 --> 02:38:32.188
[Lacer (Kai)]: If we walk it through the city?
02:38:32.809 --> 02:38:35.312
[Lacer (Kai)]: Or I guess if we're moving fairly quickly?
02:38:35.352 --> 02:38:37.635
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Better alive than not rested.
02:38:41.040 --> 02:38:47.388
[Riv (DM)]: Um, so... Let's have a look.
02:38:47.408 --> 02:38:47.929
[Riv (DM)]: Um...
02:38:51.082 --> 02:38:52.585
[Riv (DM)]: You're pretty close to the wharf.
02:38:53.387 --> 02:38:56.874
[Riv (DM)]: You'll be able to get to the Mawbreaker's compound in probably 20 minutes.
02:38:57.876 --> 02:38:58.558
[Riv (DM)]: Pretty, pretty close.
02:38:58.578 --> 02:39:04.109
[Riv (DM)]: The, um, the cub, the den of, what do you call them?
02:39:04.871 --> 02:39:07.977
[Riv (DM)]: Oh boy.
02:39:07.957 --> 02:39:12.562
[Riv (DM)]: The Veiled Cubs, jeez, they are probably pushing it.
02:39:13.222 --> 02:39:19.989
[Riv (DM)]: You took quite a twisted route the last time you got there, so it's a decent further into the old city.
02:39:20.510 --> 02:39:27.597
[Riv (DM)]: It might be an hour, might be a little bit more, might be a little bit less.
02:39:27.617 --> 02:39:28.658
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: We're gonna head for the docks.
02:39:29.699 --> 02:39:34.984
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: 20 minutes to the docks if we play it carefully and we're watching our trail.
02:39:35.004 --> 02:39:37.086
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: It might take a bit longer.
02:39:39.125 --> 02:39:44.816
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm just, I don't want to lead whatever's going on directly to the docks, but it is probably the safest place to retreat to.
02:39:44.856 --> 02:39:49.405
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, let's do that then.
02:39:49.445 --> 02:39:49.545
[Unmatched Speaker]: Okay.
02:39:51.610 --> 02:39:56.720
[Riv (DM)]: Um, so, I assume you don't want to take Main Streets, try and book back alleys and stuff like that?
02:39:57.501 --> 02:39:58.483
[Riv (DM)]: Or do you want to go Main Streets?
02:40:00.792 --> 02:40:03.956
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Probably a bit of a mix, just so we can watch our trail.
02:40:04.917 --> 02:40:05.018
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Cool.
02:40:05.038 --> 02:40:06.119
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I don't know if we're being followed.
02:40:06.820 --> 02:40:11.306
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, and going carefully, Eran can make a stealth check if you like.
02:40:12.187 --> 02:40:16.192
[Unmatched Speaker]: Mhm.
02:40:16.212 --> 02:40:17.033
[Lacer (Kai)]: I would like to...
02:40:18.395 --> 02:40:18.715
[Lacer (Kai)]: Okay.
02:40:22.761 --> 02:40:24.623
[Riv (DM)]: Clunk clunk clunk clunk clunk clunk clunk clunk clunk.
02:40:28.822 --> 02:40:29.484
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
02:40:29.845 --> 02:40:31.029
[Riv (DM)]: Natural 20 from Dondar.
02:40:32.373 --> 02:40:33.917
[Riv (DM)]: Dondar's a stealthy dwarf.
02:40:37.307 --> 02:40:38.511
[Riv (DM)]: It's my stool.
02:40:39.453 --> 02:41:00.136
[Riv (DM)]: It's always kind of thrilling, these like early early morning adventures I suppose tinged with a bit of stress and anxiety around not knowing whether or not you can sleep or rest safely in the city but you know there's kind of a chill to the air and you can't help but be a little bit excited about it.
02:41:00.537 --> 02:41:08.025
[Riv (DM)]: The tinge of blue is slowly rising on the horizon as morning is approaching a few hours from now.
02:41:09.220 --> 02:41:10.122
[Riv (DM)]: Making way through the city.
02:41:11.024 --> 02:41:15.615
[Riv (DM)]: You take a little bit longer than what you would normally do if you were just booking it straight there.
02:41:16.096 --> 02:41:23.334
[Riv (DM)]: But you make pretty decent time slipping into the odd alley and being very careful to watch your back.
02:41:24.557 --> 02:41:27.263
[Riv (DM)]: But yeah, eventually you make your way down to the harbour.
02:41:29.352 --> 02:41:32.780
[Riv (DM)]: Haven't seen anyone in pursuit that looks suspicious.
02:41:33.762 --> 02:41:42.724
[Riv (DM)]: There's the odd early riser starting to, you know, open up their market stall and stuff like that, but no people in black leather.
02:41:44.107 --> 02:41:46.332
[Riv (DM)]: Coming down to the compound,
02:41:46.312 --> 02:41:54.583
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, you can see the familiar big stone walls that lead into the Mawbreaker compound with the gate out front.
02:41:55.625 --> 02:42:04.176
[Riv (DM)]: There's just like one person sitting on a seat, sort of back, leaning up against the stone wall as you approach.
02:42:10.945 --> 02:42:15.231
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I feel like we followed an American this morning.
02:42:15.391 --> 02:42:16.032
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: We're not here yet.
02:42:19.066 --> 02:42:21.028
[Riv (DM)]: Uh, sorry, did you say this to the guy?
02:42:21.248 --> 02:42:22.189
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, the guy.
02:42:23.250 --> 02:42:28.455
[Riv (DM)]: The guy kinda like, um, sits up a bit and shakes off a bit of sleep that he probably shouldn't have been having.
02:42:28.916 --> 02:42:33.520
[Riv (DM)]: Um, kinda looks at you a bit like, ugh, who the hell are you guys?
02:42:36.784 --> 02:42:38.605
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Uh, he knows who we are.
02:42:40.668 --> 02:42:40.868
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Who?
02:42:44.251 --> 02:42:44.591
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Barak.
02:42:45.432 --> 02:42:46.153
[Riv (DM)]: The big fella.
02:42:46.893 --> 02:42:48.855
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, friends at Barrack.
02:42:49.496 --> 02:42:52.419
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, just stay here.
02:42:52.459 --> 02:42:52.920
[Riv (DM)]: Give me a moment.
02:42:53.781 --> 02:42:56.063
[Riv (DM)]: And he kind of gets up, closes the game.
02:42:57.765 --> 02:43:00.428
[Riv (DM)]: Leaves you waiting outside for a bit.
02:43:00.449 --> 02:43:01.089
[Riv (DM)]: Couple minutes going by.
02:43:01.109 --> 02:43:01.289
[Riv (DM)]: Eyes out.
02:43:01.990 --> 02:43:02.291
[Riv (DM)]: What's that?
02:43:03.292 --> 02:43:03.872
[Riv (DM)]: Eyes out.
02:43:03.892 --> 02:43:04.293
[Riv (DM)]: Scanning.
02:43:04.513 --> 02:43:05.214
[Riv (DM)]: Yep.
02:43:05.494 --> 02:43:07.156
[Riv (DM)]: Feel free to roll position checks if you like.
02:43:08.197 --> 02:43:10.360
[Riv (DM)]: Here's the couple minutes going by.
02:43:10.380 --> 02:43:12.242
[Lacer (Kai)]: I tap Rio and give him some Guidance.
02:43:15.547 --> 02:43:16.268
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, nice.
02:43:17.629 --> 02:43:18.270
[Riv (DM)]: I saw that 20.
02:43:18.730 --> 02:43:19.031
[Riv (DM)]: Hell yeah.
02:43:20.733 --> 02:43:25.418
[Riv (DM)]: I am on high fucking alert.
02:43:26.459 --> 02:43:29.662
[Riv (DM)]: That perception check, you don't see anyone watching you.
02:43:30.143 --> 02:43:41.855
[Riv (DM)]: Although you do, being down on the dock, you do seem to remember the last few times you've been down here, there were a few people that kind of seemed to have noticed you.
02:43:41.915 --> 02:43:43.377
[Riv (DM)]: So you wonder, hmm.
02:43:45.297 --> 02:43:46.060
[Riv (DM)]: Doesn't seem familiar.
02:43:46.441 --> 02:43:47.505
[Riv (DM)]: Wonder if there is any connection.
02:43:48.669 --> 02:43:52.624
[Riv (DM)]: But anyway, for now, there doesn't seem to be anyone else that meets that description, so...
02:43:54.224 --> 02:44:20.721
[Riv (DM)]: A few minutes go by and gate swings open and the same guy who's dressed in sort of like a shaggy chain with fur around the neck and, you know, around the wrists and stuff like that, kind of Viking-esque, Barak, the big man himself, comes out like shaggy hair, looking all scruffy, probably just been woken up, and he comes out and goes,
02:44:20.701 --> 02:44:21.041
[Riv (DM)]: Wow.
02:44:22.182 --> 02:44:23.163
[Riv (DM)]: Bit early, wouldn't you say?
02:44:23.964 --> 02:44:24.545
[Riv (DM)]: Come on, come in.
02:44:25.466 --> 02:44:30.391
[Riv (DM)]: Taking in the situation, realizing this is a bit out of ordinary, just ushers you in quietly without any other comment.
02:44:31.692 --> 02:44:36.196
[Riv (DM)]: And you can follow him inside into the main hall of the, um, of the Mawbreaker's compound.
02:44:37.518 --> 02:44:45.605
[Riv (DM)]: Once you're inside, he kind of turns to you and, um, just says, well, I suspect there's a story to be told here.
02:44:45.626 --> 02:44:49.189
[Riv (DM)]: Are you guys all right?
02:44:50.620 --> 02:44:55.605
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Fortunately, we had some dark visitors in the night.
02:44:57.207 --> 02:45:01.352
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: On top of the fine golds, I'm sure you're aware that they've moved on.
02:45:01.372 --> 02:45:03.154
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I imagine they passed message on to you as well.
02:45:03.875 --> 02:45:05.997
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, a couple of days ago actually, they came and saw us.
02:45:08.299 --> 02:45:14.186
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I have a feeling we may be compromised, in which case things are probably about to get a bit heated here in town.
02:45:16.228 --> 02:45:18.771
[Riv (DM)]: Scratches his big long red beard.
02:45:20.033 --> 02:45:21.095
[Riv (DM)]: Nice in the night, eh?
02:45:21.936 --> 02:45:24.080
[Riv (DM)]: You haven't made any enemies since you've been in the city, have you?
02:45:24.761 --> 02:45:27.325
[Riv (DM)]: There are certainly cutthroats around.
02:45:30.150 --> 02:45:34.376
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Maybe one or two, but nothing that would really pin us down like that.
02:45:34.396 --> 02:45:37.902
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: And given our unique situation, probably better to be safe than sorry.
02:45:39.284 --> 02:45:39.645
[Riv (DM)]: Indeed.
02:45:41.195 --> 02:45:44.559
[Riv (DM)]: Well, you're most welcome to stay here in the compound if it makes you feel safer.
02:45:44.600 --> 02:45:51.809
[Riv (DM)]: Um, be that as it may, considering current events, I doubt that we'll be staying here for much longer.
02:45:51.869 --> 02:45:53.852
[Riv (DM)]: We are nearly ready to go.
02:45:53.872 --> 02:45:56.696
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That's very good news.
02:45:57.737 --> 02:46:01.902
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Um, coming in, I've noticed we used to have a few watchers around the dock.
02:46:01.983 --> 02:46:03.665
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm not seeing them at the moment.
02:46:03.685 --> 02:46:07.590
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Is that early morning or is, um, a bit thin out there today?
02:46:09.950 --> 02:46:15.689
[Riv (DM)]: Um, just for my benefit, you're saying this to Beric asking about like the, the more Breaker watches?
02:46:16.512 --> 02:46:22.693
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Well, just like you were saying with the, the Nat 20, I've seen people out on the docks before, but I'm not seeing them at the moment.
02:46:24.209 --> 02:46:33.903
[Riv (DM)]: Well, let's just say certain parts of the dock seems to attract certain less reputable people.
02:46:35.065 --> 02:46:41.794
[Riv (DM)]: This time of the morning, not much business to be done, but who knows what sort of people will be out there on the average day.
02:46:41.814 --> 02:46:45.660
[Riv (DM)]: You say people have been watching you on the docks before?
02:46:46.619 --> 02:46:52.386
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: There's always eyes on the dock, but yeah, just making sure.
02:46:53.627 --> 02:46:58.133
[Riv (DM)]: Well, something I would know about, although, like I said, plenty of different factions here in the city.
02:46:58.814 --> 02:47:03.099
[Riv (DM)]: Could just be you stepped on the wrong toes without even knowing it, and they've been sort of following you or watching you.
02:47:03.119 --> 02:47:05.382
[Riv (DM)]: That makes sense.
02:47:06.183 --> 02:47:07.284
[Riv (DM)]: We thought they were your boys.
02:47:08.786 --> 02:47:09.467
[Riv (DM)]: Ah, no, no.
02:47:10.127 --> 02:47:11.970
[Riv (DM)]: Trust me, my boys aren't that subtle.
02:47:12.350 --> 02:47:13.892
[Riv (DM)]: If they were watching you, you would know about it.
02:47:15.290 --> 02:47:20.395
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Speaking of, might be an idea just to pop the guard up.
02:47:22.437 --> 02:47:25.319
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Get them a little bit more awake and ready just in case.
02:47:28.462 --> 02:47:31.105
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: We've got followers from Darmouth.
02:47:32.927 --> 02:47:36.450
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Like I said, the city's probably about to warm up.
02:47:37.111 --> 02:47:38.132
[Riv (DM)]: That's a good point.
02:47:38.152 --> 02:47:40.174
[Riv (DM)]: You don't think you were followed, do you?
02:47:41.154 --> 02:47:42.816
[Riv (DM)]: Or do you have reason to believe?
02:47:44.973 --> 02:47:55.644
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Well, given the Fine Golds spotted a follower, and it was only a matter of time before word came, the Empire's not that incompetent.
02:47:55.664 --> 02:47:56.825
[Riv (DM)]: You think they were connected to you?
02:47:57.726 --> 02:48:03.612
[Riv (DM)]: Gemma seemed to suggest that they were more likely to be associating with her group.
02:48:05.413 --> 02:48:07.295
[Riv (DM)]: Would they recognize you, or...?
02:48:08.376 --> 02:48:09.898
[Lacer (Kai)]: Probably not, probably not.
02:48:09.938 --> 02:48:14.102
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: There was a lot of overlap there, who knows.
02:48:15.719 --> 02:48:16.180
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
02:48:16.821 --> 02:48:17.021
[Riv (DM)]: Well.
02:48:18.443 --> 02:48:19.584
[Riv (DM)]: It's a good suggestion either way.
02:48:20.245 --> 02:48:24.711
[Riv (DM)]: In the time we have left, I'll be sure to make sure we keep a few extra eyes out.
02:48:27.135 --> 02:48:27.375
[Riv (DM)]: Anyway.
02:48:28.196 --> 02:48:32.582
[Riv (DM)]: Come, you look like you definitely need to close those eyes.
02:48:32.983 --> 02:48:35.827
[Riv (DM)]: Looking a bit dark like you've had a few long days.
02:48:36.548 --> 02:48:38.150
[Riv (DM)]: I'll show you to some quarters.
02:48:38.350 --> 02:48:40.713
[Riv (DM)]: They won't be pretty, but eh, serviceable.
02:48:41.094 --> 02:48:42.756
[Riv (DM)]: And then we can discuss in the morning.
02:48:44.474 --> 02:48:45.235
[Riv (DM)]: Sounds like a plan.
02:48:46.296 --> 02:48:47.197
[Riv (DM)]: Much appreciated.
02:48:47.998 --> 02:48:48.839
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
02:48:48.859 --> 02:48:56.166
[Riv (DM)]: And he leads you back on through the longhouse to a, I wouldn't say cozy room, but serviceable.
02:48:56.266 --> 02:48:57.728
[Riv (DM)]: There are a few sort of bunks scattered around.
02:48:57.768 --> 02:49:01.432
[Riv (DM)]: It's kind of like more like a barracks sort of a room than a hotel.
02:49:01.632 --> 02:49:07.258
[Riv (DM)]: Stone walls, straw beds, but serviceable and you can complete your long rest.
02:49:07.398 --> 02:49:10.441
[Riv (DM)]: So feel free to smash your long rest button.
02:49:11.863 --> 02:49:12.844
[Riv (DM)]: Feels right at home.
02:49:14.545 --> 02:49:14.926
[Riv (DM)]: True.
02:49:18.371 --> 02:49:18.592
[Riv (DM)]: Alright.
02:49:20.935 --> 02:49:22.358
[Riv (DM)]: The morning comes by and you wake up.
02:49:22.758 --> 02:49:24.942
[Riv (DM)]: It's a bit cold in here, not the best insulation.
02:49:25.242 --> 02:49:32.574
[Riv (DM)]: The warmth seems to be soaked up by the stone walls, but unless you come out and open the door, and there's a bit of movement.
02:49:33.015 --> 02:49:34.978
[Riv (DM)]: A few people have, you know, woken early.
02:49:36.481 --> 02:49:38.063
[Riv (DM)]: You can see a couple of people you recognize.
02:49:38.123 --> 02:49:39.085
[Riv (DM)]: There's...
02:49:40.347 --> 02:49:44.633
[Riv (DM)]: There's an older dude who kind of looks, you know, similar sort of stature to Barrack.
02:49:44.693 --> 02:49:53.006
[Riv (DM)]: He's just pacing through the, he's coming out actually of the room, out onto the, through the doors outside.
02:49:53.406 --> 02:49:57.332
[Riv (DM)]: And yeah, what would you like to do this morning?
02:49:57.392 --> 02:49:58.774
[Riv (DM)]: Heading straight to see Barrack?
02:50:04.883 --> 02:50:05.444
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Sounds good.
02:50:05.564 --> 02:50:07.367
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: See where we're at with plans, I guess.
02:50:07.887 --> 02:50:09.069
[Riv (DM)]: Cool.
02:50:09.770 --> 02:50:10.911
[Riv (DM)]: It's a bit uncomfortable.
02:50:11.132 --> 02:50:13.816
[Riv (DM)]: A few people kind of look at you like, who are these guys?
02:50:13.896 --> 02:50:22.488
[Riv (DM)]: But you can walk like you sort of belong and head to the back room where you had met Barak before and go on in.
02:50:22.508 --> 02:50:23.389
[Riv (DM)]: And yeah, he is there.
02:50:24.511 --> 02:50:25.853
[Riv (DM)]: Giant man over a table.
02:50:26.033 --> 02:50:31.261
[Riv (DM)]: The table looks almost like a children's table or something compared to his stature.
02:50:32.703 --> 02:50:35.327
[Riv (DM)]: But he looks up as you come in and says, excellent.
02:50:35.587 --> 02:50:36.949
[Riv (DM)]: All right, well.
02:50:36.929 --> 02:50:38.272
[Riv (DM)]: Shall we get to business, eh?
02:50:40.015 --> 02:50:42.379
[Riv (DM)]: Please, please follow me, we've got much to discuss.
02:50:43.261 --> 02:50:54.482
[Riv (DM)]: And he leads you back out of the room and down another long corridor towards the back of the room and stares the head down into a basement.
02:50:54.462 --> 02:51:22.731
[Riv (DM)]: Maybe like a story or two down below you get the feeling that you're now below the docks themselves and there's a door at the bottom that opens up and it looks like at one point might have been a wine cellar or something some sort of basement or storage facility there are still a few barrels like up against and racks up against the wall but it has been transformed into you can what you could only describe as a war room there are like big sketches like
02:51:22.711 --> 02:51:27.176
[Riv (DM)]: Pinned up against the wall with bits of string and stuff like that, connecting a few things.
02:51:28.117 --> 02:51:32.563
[Riv (DM)]: There is a big table in the centre of the room with just papers flung everywhere.
02:51:32.923 --> 02:51:43.195
[Riv (DM)]: At the back of the room, kind of curiously, there are a couple of tables with a few wooden structures, sculptures, almost like a little model.
02:51:43.916 --> 02:51:46.559
[Riv (DM)]: Can't really see too many details from this side of the room.
02:51:47.260 --> 02:51:49.663
[Riv (DM)]: But there is a dwarf at the table.
02:51:50.572 --> 02:51:59.890
[Riv (DM)]: Who's just, he's sort of poring over a few documents, sort of lost in thought, as, um, Beric leads you down into the room and says, Gromdahl!
02:52:00.410 --> 02:52:02.113
[Riv (DM)]: These are the men I told you about.
02:52:02.133 --> 02:52:06.320
[Riv (DM)]: I think they might be able to solve that little problem we've been having.
02:52:06.761 --> 02:52:08.544
[Riv (DM)]: Please, come in friends, come in.
02:52:08.644 --> 02:52:16.658
[Riv (DM)]: And he helps you usher in and Gromdahl comes over, looks at you and he's got a classic short dwarf.
02:52:16.678 --> 02:52:23.650
[Riv (DM)]: He's got curly bronze hair, bit bald on top, beard not super long.
02:52:23.630 --> 02:52:33.526
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, he's wearing just classic linens, no armor or anything like that, but he's got very strong sort of calloused looking hands like a workman's hands.
02:52:34.288 --> 02:52:38.555
[Riv (DM)]: And he comes over and says, alright, well then, shall we get to business?
02:52:41.059 --> 02:52:46.448
[Riv (DM)]: How much do these guys know about what we're doing?
02:52:46.428 --> 02:52:49.292
[Riv (DM)]: And Beric says, they know enough.
02:52:49.452 --> 02:52:50.774
[Riv (DM)]: We've been through the high level.
02:52:51.555 --> 02:52:53.538
[Riv (DM)]: They were the ones, in fact, who actually brought these.
02:52:53.878 --> 02:52:57.583
[Riv (DM)]: And he gestures to the parchments in front and Grumdal nods.
02:52:57.964 --> 02:53:04.032
[Riv (DM)]: Alright then, any questions up front before we get into it?
02:53:05.194 --> 02:53:06.175
[Riv (DM)]: He looks at you.
02:53:08.956 --> 02:53:15.825
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'll look around all the maps in the War Room and back my knuckles, feeling very, very comfortable in this situation.
02:53:19.049 --> 02:53:21.893
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: From what I gather we're looking at a demolition job, in and out?
02:53:23.315 --> 02:53:23.415
[Riv (DM)]: Aye.
02:53:25.418 --> 02:53:25.939
[Riv (DM)]: Pretty much.
02:53:27.060 --> 02:53:30.044
[Riv (DM)]: And that's the bit that we need to talk about.
02:53:31.486 --> 02:53:36.853
[Riv (DM)]: Beric holds up a hand and just says, just before we get to that,
02:53:38.217 --> 02:53:43.882
[Riv (DM)]: So, of course, primary objective here, so just so we're all on the same page, is to destroy Skyreach.
02:53:44.806 --> 02:53:45.308
[Riv (DM)]: However,
02:53:46.688 --> 02:53:57.061
[Riv (DM)]: Something we need to consider is there are hundreds, potentially a thousand slaves currently working imprisoned there on the structure itself.
02:53:57.822 --> 02:54:01.026
[Riv (DM)]: I plan to save as many of these people as possible.
02:54:02.368 --> 02:54:03.349
[Riv (DM)]: They don't deserve to be killed.
02:54:03.569 --> 02:54:05.111
[Riv (DM)]: They don't deserve to be left out there stranded.
02:54:05.391 --> 02:54:14.042
[Riv (DM)]: And I guess if we consider it from a selfish perspective, the more people there are to spread the story, well, the better that would suit our cause.
02:54:14.342 --> 02:54:16.425
[Riv (DM)]: Wouldn't you think?
02:54:16.658 --> 02:54:17.920
[Riv (DM)]: Plus a few extra recruits.
02:54:19.162 --> 02:54:19.382
[Riv (DM)]: Indeed.
02:54:20.423 --> 02:54:29.476
[Riv (DM)]: So the idea is that the Albatross, that's my ship, will go out ahead and prepare the strike force.
02:54:30.598 --> 02:54:41.653
[Riv (DM)]: We'll be followed by several other Moorbreaker ships who have been leaned down in terms of the crew ready to assist with and transport as many people out as we can.
02:54:41.633 --> 02:54:43.077
[Riv (DM)]: Assuming all goes well.
02:54:43.980 --> 02:54:44.602
[Riv (DM)]: Destroy the bridge.
02:54:45.685 --> 02:54:46.267
[Riv (DM)]: Get the people out.
02:54:47.611 --> 02:54:48.554
[Riv (DM)]: Be as if we were never there.
02:54:49.035 --> 02:54:51.764
[Riv (DM)]: Apart from the smouldering ruin of the Empire's grand design.
02:54:51.784 --> 02:54:51.844
[Riv (DM)]: Ha.
02:54:52.626 --> 02:54:52.867
[Riv (DM)]: Well.
02:54:54.231 --> 02:54:54.492
[Riv (DM)]: Anyway.
02:54:55.274 --> 02:54:55.575
[Riv (DM)]: Um.
02:54:57.243 --> 02:54:58.385
[Riv (DM)]: He has a wry smile.
02:54:59.407 --> 02:55:04.735
[Riv (DM)]: You get the idea that this has been on his mind for quite some time and it's all coming to a head now.
02:55:06.098 --> 02:55:06.979
[Riv (DM)]: He gestures to Gromdal.
02:55:08.121 --> 02:55:09.563
[Riv (DM)]: So please, why don't you fill them in?
02:55:10.304 --> 02:55:17.697
[Riv (DM)]: And this Gromdal reaches through the stacks of paper and starts pulling up to try and find a specific one.
02:55:18.458 --> 02:55:19.359
[Riv (DM)]: No, that's not the right one.
02:55:20.321 --> 02:55:20.842
[Riv (DM)]: Ah, here we are.
02:55:21.182 --> 02:55:24.027
[Riv (DM)]: And he pulls up a page for you all to see.
02:55:26.167 --> 02:55:42.943
[Riv (DM)]: It's sort of like a pencil drawing and you can see there are some additional like sketches and stuff that he's added to it and a few off over one side of the page there's like a few calculations and stuff like that and he says well this is it this is basically the the key part that you need to look at
02:55:45.016 --> 02:55:47.098
[Riv (DM)]: I've, um...
02:55:47.118 --> 02:55:50.382
[Riv (DM)]: I've done a few calculations and, well, some simulations.
02:55:50.602 --> 02:55:53.605
[Riv (DM)]: Any gestures over his shoulder pointing to what?
02:55:53.625 --> 02:55:54.707
[Riv (DM)]: A bit closer now, you can see.
02:55:55.167 --> 02:56:02.555
[Riv (DM)]: Um, it's almost like he's built these model structures of the viaduct itself, um, from wood to almost sort of test.
02:56:02.575 --> 02:56:07.060
[Riv (DM)]: Using, you know, using the schematics he's tried to recreate it so that he can test it to, um, try and find the weak points.
02:56:07.761 --> 02:56:09.083
[Riv (DM)]: Um, he says...
02:56:10.484 --> 02:56:13.167
[Riv (DM)]: There's a bit of a flaw in their designs, um...
02:56:14.294 --> 02:56:20.281
[Riv (DM)]: I think that there are three places that we need to hit it with some sort of explosive.
02:56:21.583 --> 02:56:23.465
[Riv (DM)]: And I should bring the thing crumbling down.
02:56:25.207 --> 02:56:29.572
[Riv (DM)]: And he will sketch on the map a few places.
02:56:30.994 --> 02:56:33.717
[Riv (DM)]: Here, here, and right here.
02:56:33.757 --> 02:56:40.065
[Riv (DM)]: Now these two columns, one out from the middle that I've crossed,
02:56:40.754 --> 02:56:44.243
[Riv (DM)]: They appear to be hollow, if we have anything to go by on the designs.
02:56:44.564 --> 02:56:46.689
[Riv (DM)]: There are some sort of stairs leading all the way up.
02:56:47.411 --> 02:56:51.862
[Riv (DM)]: That could be a way in, and an excellent place to put the explosives.
02:56:53.526 --> 02:56:55.371
[Riv (DM)]: Now this middle one, that's a bit more tricky.
02:56:56.549 --> 02:57:01.316
[Riv (DM)]: It's not good enough, I don't think, to do it on top of the bridge itself.
02:57:01.336 --> 02:57:19.924
[Riv (DM)]: It has to be underneath, and he takes you over to the structures, and you can see one of them, he's done some manual damage on the two outer centre pillars, I suppose, and then tried to break the top part of the bridge itself, but it hasn't collapsed.
02:57:19.904 --> 02:57:25.513
[Riv (DM)]: Whereas another model he points to, you can see it has completely sort of crumbled in on itself.
02:57:26.014 --> 02:57:27.877
[Riv (DM)]: And he points to this one and says, see this one.
02:57:28.618 --> 02:57:34.208
[Riv (DM)]: I found that if I applied the damage to the very bottom of the bridge, it just fell apart.
02:57:35.089 --> 02:57:43.583
[Riv (DM)]: Now the key thing is, the time that it takes for it to tumble is going to depend entirely upon how much damage we actually cause.
02:57:44.542 --> 02:57:47.507
[Riv (DM)]: Too much and it might all come down at once, taking you with it.
02:57:47.527 --> 02:57:51.494
[Riv (DM)]: And not enough, it might stand for long enough for the bloody Empire to repair it.
02:57:51.654 --> 02:57:53.397
[Riv (DM)]: So, bit of a fine balance.
02:57:54.699 --> 02:58:00.188
[Riv (DM)]: I've tried to figure out exactly how much we need in the
02:58:01.180 --> 02:58:23.205
[Riv (DM)]: Walks over to the corner and um just like in one big sweeping motion pulls this cloth off a um a big sort of I guess pile of something um revealing a big stack of gunpowder kegs you can tell because they are sort of like you know like look like a normal bear keg but they've got red like crosses through them and you know do not touch sort of symbols on them.
02:58:24.637 --> 02:58:28.162
[Riv (DM)]: I reckon about three of these on each location should do the trick.
02:58:29.824 --> 02:58:31.806
[Riv (DM)]: But you know, with these things, it's imprecise.
02:58:32.347 --> 02:58:33.028
[Riv (DM)]: Bit of a gamble.
02:58:34.610 --> 02:58:37.874
[Riv (DM)]: Now, this is what we have to do.
02:58:38.155 --> 02:58:39.356
[Riv (DM)]: How we do it is the question.
02:58:39.556 --> 02:58:41.899
[Riv (DM)]: And that's something that we're hoping you can help us figure out.
02:58:43.401 --> 02:58:44.102
[Riv (DM)]: So what do you reckon?
02:58:44.263 --> 02:58:46.025
[Riv (DM)]: What are your initial thoughts on how we could do it?
02:58:47.847 --> 02:58:48.989
[Lacer (Kai)]: These kegs are pretty big.
02:58:49.369 --> 02:58:50.611
[Lacer (Kai)]: Hard to transport.
02:58:51.352 --> 02:58:51.572
[Riv (DM)]: Aye.
02:58:53.138 --> 02:58:56.681
[Riv (DM)]: They're probably 20 or 30 pounds each.
02:58:57.422 --> 02:59:01.126
[Riv (DM)]: One person could probably strap like two to their back.
02:59:03.047 --> 02:59:05.590
[Riv (DM)]: But carrying three for a single person might be a bit tricky.
02:59:07.952 --> 02:59:09.353
[Riv (DM)]: They're not like massive wine barrels.
02:59:09.373 --> 02:59:11.115
[Riv (DM)]: They're more like beer casks, I suppose.
02:59:13.857 --> 02:59:17.081
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: initial thoughts?
02:59:17.101 --> 02:59:19.102
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Give me a hundred good men in a week.
02:59:19.323 --> 02:59:22.926
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: We could probably do it, but I don't think we got either of those.
02:59:23.699 --> 02:59:24.521
[Lacer (Kai)]: Actually, yes.
02:59:24.742 --> 02:59:26.546
[Lacer (Kai)]: What's the timeframe we're looking at?
02:59:30.136 --> 02:59:30.456
[Riv (DM)]: Barak?
02:59:32.281 --> 02:59:35.028
[Riv (DM)]: Barak just sort of scratched his head.
02:59:37.755 --> 02:59:40.442
[Riv (DM)]: Well, I don't know if there's really...
02:59:41.890 --> 02:59:47.000
[Riv (DM)]: We're not really against the clock here unless for whatever reason they might have caught on.
02:59:47.761 --> 02:59:50.326
[Riv (DM)]: But it will take us a while to get there.
02:59:50.567 --> 02:59:57.781
[Riv (DM)]: We'll need to be going by ocean in order to get the, you know, the sleeves out.
02:59:59.464 --> 03:00:01.047
[Riv (DM)]: Take a week-ish to get there probably.
03:00:04.064 --> 03:00:08.612
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, I pull out that letter that we got from the original ship.
03:00:09.213 --> 03:00:12.658
[Lacer (Kai)]: So we need to destroy Skyreach before it's completed.
03:00:13.480 --> 03:00:15.223
[Lacer (Kai)]: They want it completed before winter.
03:00:16.565 --> 03:00:18.368
[Lacer (Kai)]: How much time between now and winter?
03:00:20.151 --> 03:00:23.536
[Riv (DM)]: Well, you tell me friend, when do the seasons even change?
03:00:25.460 --> 03:00:26.942
[Riv (DM)]: I guess you could say it's already winter.
03:00:27.323 --> 03:00:29.346
[Riv (DM)]: Maybe winter is a few weeks away.
03:00:32.600 --> 03:00:37.004
[Lacer (Kai)]: So at most we only have a few weeks, right?
03:00:37.025 --> 03:00:37.645
[Riv (DM)]: Let me have a look at that.
03:00:38.746 --> 03:00:39.867
[Riv (DM)]: Barry says it with a Scottish accent.
03:00:41.089 --> 03:00:43.791
[Riv (DM)]: He takes a look at the letter and what does it say?
03:00:43.811 --> 03:00:49.477
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: It just says it must be... Fire to complete before winter is not an option.
03:00:49.497 --> 03:00:50.218
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Before winter is not an option.
03:00:53.561 --> 03:00:53.922
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yeah.
03:00:56.144 --> 03:00:57.365
[Riv (DM)]: Chances are they will be very...
03:00:57.385 --> 03:00:59.147
[Lacer (Kai)]: They have a timeframe, so...
03:01:00.680 --> 03:01:03.083
[Lacer (Kai)]: We need a set sail soon, hey?
03:01:03.123 --> 03:01:06.287
[Riv (DM)]: This is certainly new information.
03:01:06.447 --> 03:01:13.055
[Riv (DM)]: I would say, I mean, they must be wrapping it up any day.
03:01:13.075 --> 03:01:18.802
[Riv (DM)]: I wonder if that means there'll be more or less defense.
03:01:21.064 --> 03:01:21.625
[Riv (DM)]: Who knows?
03:01:22.938 --> 03:01:24.460
[Riv (DM)]: I mean, there's no time to waste, I guess.
03:01:25.562 --> 03:01:27.865
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: It's also the question of how complete it is.
03:01:28.606 --> 03:01:33.873
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: You can base your models off the drawings, but the drawings are a complete setup.
03:01:33.893 --> 03:01:36.577
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: It can be very well not fully built.
03:01:36.957 --> 03:01:37.058
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Aye.
03:01:38.980 --> 03:01:39.341
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That's true.
03:01:41.764 --> 03:01:44.948
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Do we have any estimates on guard strength?
03:01:45.389 --> 03:01:47.392
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: You're talking upwards of a thousand prisoners.
03:01:47.412 --> 03:01:51.898
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: You're going to need a lot of bodies to keep them in line, not to mention guarding logistics transport.
03:01:53.684 --> 03:01:55.586
[Riv (DM)]: Materials in and out.
03:01:56.307 --> 03:01:56.447
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
03:01:57.308 --> 03:01:59.471
[Riv (DM)]: The information wasn't specified in here around that.
03:01:59.791 --> 03:02:03.956
[Riv (DM)]: We can only assume that they had hundreds of people working on this.
03:02:05.077 --> 03:02:07.320
[Riv (DM)]: But there's no way to tell, there's no specific numbers.
03:02:07.560 --> 03:02:09.783
[Riv (DM)]: We can assume there will be some military presence there.
03:02:10.664 --> 03:02:14.368
[Riv (DM)]: What we can tell you is at the base there are encampments on either side of the river.
03:02:15.490 --> 03:02:18.153
[Riv (DM)]: This middle column, it points to...
03:02:19.815 --> 03:02:20.856
[Riv (DM)]: Uh oh, don't do this to me.
03:02:21.983 --> 03:02:24.946
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, I need to do a quick reload because I cannot ping.
03:02:28.711 --> 03:02:29.612
[Riv (DM)]: No, my immersion.
03:02:30.112 --> 03:02:37.941
[Riv (DM)]: Alright, he taps here and says the river flows between these and the middle two columns are in the water itself.
03:02:38.782 --> 03:02:43.027
[Riv (DM)]: These outer columns, there is some sort of outpost at the base of each.
03:02:43.127 --> 03:02:46.911
[Riv (DM)]: We assume this is where they keep the prisoners down beside the river.
03:02:47.572 --> 03:02:49.594
[Riv (DM)]: There will be quarries down there.
03:02:49.574 --> 03:02:51.737
[Riv (DM)]: That they'll be using to actually mine the stone itself.
03:02:52.398 --> 03:03:00.389
[Riv (DM)]: And then there will be some machinery, some engines that they're using, elevators to lift the stones up.
03:03:01.250 --> 03:03:04.775
[Riv (DM)]: Or possibly they're even getting the slaves themselves to carry it up the stairs.
03:03:05.856 --> 03:03:06.437
[Riv (DM)]: Impossible to tell.
03:03:07.979 --> 03:03:15.109
[Riv (DM)]: But we think if we can, that would probably be the place where they would be, down the bottom.
03:03:18.397 --> 03:03:26.192
[Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, I pull up the map that we had purchased in... Where was it?
03:03:26.593 --> 03:03:27.174
[Lacer (Kai)]: In Darmouth.
03:03:28.998 --> 03:03:32.625
[Lacer (Kai)]: And I ask Barrick, do we have a...
03:03:34.208 --> 03:03:49.078
[Lacer (Kai)]: Approximate location of where this bridge is being built in relation to the map and our way of approach is by sea, so which path will you be sailing up towards it?
03:03:50.510 --> 03:04:01.567
[Riv (DM)]: Grondahl responds and says they don't have the exact location written down on the notes, but just judging by the terrain, I was able to piece a few things together.
03:04:03.470 --> 03:04:08.657
[Riv (DM)]: If you come back over to the map, I can activate it for you guys.
03:04:10.741 --> 03:04:11.762
[Riv (DM)]: He taps here on your map.
03:04:12.924 --> 03:04:18.272
[Riv (DM)]: It's got to be right here, which means the bolts will need to go a day or so up the river.
03:04:20.767 --> 03:04:27.397
[Riv (DM)]: Probably beach them on the riverside somewhere, go the rest of the way on foot.
03:04:27.417 --> 03:04:35.389
[Riv (DM)]: Just long enough to be out of vision, but not too far that the prisoners can't make it back.
03:04:39.255 --> 03:04:41.819
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Let's see... Is there a naval... No, go ahead.
03:04:41.839 --> 03:04:47.087
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Do we know if there is a naval blockade before or after the bridge?
03:04:49.090 --> 03:04:49.170
Hmm.
03:04:49.471 --> 03:04:52.515
[Riv (DM)]: Not that we've seen before over the previous months.
03:04:54.438 --> 03:04:59.104
[Riv (DM)]: They clearly have been not trying to make too much attention, I suppose.
03:04:59.745 --> 03:05:02.529
[Riv (DM)]: If they had a blockade, then people would be wondering what was going on.
03:05:03.410 --> 03:05:07.575
[Riv (DM)]: But it wouldn't be unwise to have some sort of defense.
03:05:07.776 --> 03:05:08.657
[Riv (DM)]: It's tough to tell.
03:05:10.820 --> 03:05:15.746
[Riv (DM)]: I mean, who would be foolish enough to sail up a river anyway into the Aeolian chasm of suicide for any boat?
03:05:16.728 --> 03:05:19.191
[Riv (DM)]: Well, suicide is what we do best, I suppose.
03:05:23.423 --> 03:05:28.110
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: So, we're dealing with an unknown force in an unknown location.
03:05:30.493 --> 03:05:37.123
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: We need to take down a bridge with an unknown amount of explosives and get out an unknown amount of people.
03:05:40.007 --> 03:05:41.749
[Riv (DM)]: Sounds like an adventure, eh friend?
03:05:44.353 --> 03:05:49.721
[Lacer (Kai)]: I just chuckle, it's like so many unknowns.
03:05:49.761 --> 03:05:51.844
[Lacer (Kai)]: We'll do what we usually do, play it by ear.
03:05:55.688 --> 03:05:56.249
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Um...
03:05:56.269 --> 03:06:00.880
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm just thinking...
03:06:00.900 --> 03:06:13.731
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Us sneaking in would be better coming from upriver, because it is easier to be stealthy on water, going with the flow than paddling against it.
03:06:17.491 --> 03:06:28.045
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Potentially we would go, thinking out loud here, we would go overland, insert north of it and come down the river while the boats go around and land on the south.
03:06:30.248 --> 03:06:36.597
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Also getting people out is going to be easier sending them downriver than sending them up.
03:06:37.066 --> 03:06:45.038
[Riv (DM)]: If you suggest this outline, Barak will say, uh, we considered it.
03:06:45.879 --> 03:06:48.403
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, you can try it if you want, it'll be difficult.
03:06:48.684 --> 03:06:52.289
[Riv (DM)]: The Aeolian chasm up in those parts is extremely rough terrain.
03:06:52.850 --> 03:06:58.078
[Riv (DM)]: Getting anywhere down from the cliffs to the river itself would be, ugh, itself.
03:06:59.257 --> 03:06:59.778
[Riv (DM)]: A nightmare.
03:07:00.018 --> 03:07:01.980
[Riv (DM)]: That is why they are building the bridge in the first place.
03:07:02.821 --> 03:07:08.888
[Riv (DM)]: Also, we have to assume that there's one of the most defended parts of the structure itself.
03:07:08.908 --> 03:07:11.612
[Riv (DM)]: They don't want just anyone wandering up to the structure.
03:07:12.713 --> 03:07:23.546
[Riv (DM)]: The river, well, people probably less likely to be coming from the river, but from land, you know, travelers just exploring, miners, I'm sure they've blockaded the top part.
03:07:24.827 --> 03:07:25.568
[Riv (DM)]: That's fair, that's fair.
03:07:27.573 --> 03:07:32.640
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Any potential assistance on this or are we just going in with a small team?
03:07:34.422 --> 03:07:43.675
[Riv (DM)]: Well, I assume that it's not likely to be able to be done by a single group, all three parts.
03:07:44.275 --> 03:07:47.940
[Riv (DM)]: So I had sort of assumed we might decide to split.
03:07:48.681 --> 03:07:50.644
[Riv (DM)]: I could have a few of my men go up one side.
03:07:52.210 --> 03:08:02.761
[Riv (DM)]: You could go out the other side and, I don't know, we figure something out, but the middle part of the bridge, that's the tricky bit.
03:08:04.403 --> 03:08:09.008
[Riv (DM)]: That's really where I was hoping that people of your expertise might have some ideas.
03:08:10.369 --> 03:08:14.434
[Riv (DM)]: It's not really something that my men would be, you know, accustomed to.
03:08:16.015 --> 03:08:17.577
[Riv (DM)]: What is the scale of the bridge?
03:08:18.569 --> 03:08:22.316
[Riv (DM)]: Based on these designs, it's gotta be massive.
03:08:22.516 --> 03:08:23.538
[Riv (DM)]: Hundreds of feet tall.
03:08:24.239 --> 03:08:25.622
[Riv (DM)]: I'd say three or four hundred at least.
03:08:28.487 --> 03:08:34.137
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: So from the surface to below the bridge, how many stories could that be?
03:08:35.961 --> 03:08:36.301
[Riv (DM)]: Several.
03:08:36.982 --> 03:08:37.844
[Riv (DM)]: Potentially dozens.
03:08:38.545 --> 03:08:40.088
[Riv (DM)]: Let's just say you wouldn't want to fall.
03:08:44.405 --> 03:08:48.370
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I mean to the underside of the bridge on the surface.
03:08:49.251 --> 03:08:49.471
[Riv (DM)]: Right.
03:08:51.654 --> 03:08:56.300
[Riv (DM)]: Probably... Oh, it can't be more than 20 or 30 feet.
03:09:02.587 --> 03:09:07.313
[Riv (DM)]: Maybe a bit more, but we're not talking 100 feet just for the top part.
03:09:08.895 --> 03:09:09.636
[Riv (DM)]: Standard sort of bridge.
03:09:12.552 --> 03:09:24.081
[Lacer (Kai)]: With your testing, does it list what materials they'll be using to create such a grand, massive bridge?
03:09:24.702 --> 03:09:31.332
[Riv (DM)]: They're mainly using the stone from the gorge itself.
03:09:32.274 --> 03:09:44.172
[Riv (DM)]: Like I said, they've got huge quarries there that they've been carving away, so I can assume they've got a big mixture of chunks of rock and small pebbles, mortar being used between the bigger and smaller pieces.
03:09:44.592 --> 03:09:44.732
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
03:09:47.977 --> 03:09:49.039
[Riv (DM)]: Unlikely to be any wood.
03:09:53.930 --> 03:09:56.353
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: How do they transport their stone?
03:09:58.616 --> 03:10:06.847
[Riv (DM)]: To get it from the ground level to the top, we assume that they've been using some sort of elevator.
03:10:07.087 --> 03:10:07.888
[Riv (DM)]: What is an elevator?
03:10:08.649 --> 03:10:15.718
[Riv (DM)]: Some sort of pulley system where they'll have a structure up on top with ropes and counterweights that allows the heavy stones to be lifted.
03:10:18.533 --> 03:10:20.356
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: And from the quarry to the stone?
03:10:20.717 --> 03:10:21.238
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: To the bridge?
03:10:22.540 --> 03:10:27.308
[Riv (DM)]: Well, I guess that's what the people are for, right?
03:10:27.328 --> 03:10:27.448
[Riv (DM)]: Ah.
03:10:38.586 --> 03:10:43.174
[Lacer (Kai)]: While pondering this, I asked Barrack, does the Mawbreakers have any
03:10:44.588 --> 03:10:52.719
[Lacer (Kai)]: Experience spellcasters that could use destructive spells to assist in damaging this structure.
03:10:56.064 --> 03:10:58.527
[Riv (DM)]: We did sort of consider this.
03:10:59.368 --> 03:11:01.992
[Riv (DM)]: None of my guys are really spellcasters.
03:11:03.634 --> 03:11:05.577
[Riv (DM)]: Bunch of crazy hooligans, honestly.
03:11:06.318 --> 03:11:08.100
[Riv (DM)]: No time spent noses in books.
03:11:08.981 --> 03:11:13.768
[Riv (DM)]: One thing that would be nice would be a way to communicate between the different groups if we were to split up.
03:11:14.879 --> 03:11:22.117
[Riv (DM)]: You know, magic would be a good way to do that, but yeah, unfortunately we don't have, we're sort of lacking them on our side.
03:11:22.158 --> 03:11:25.125
[Riv (DM)]: We could try to, I guess, hire someone in the city.
03:11:27.080 --> 03:11:30.163
[Lacer (Kai)]: I think the less people that know the better for now.
03:11:30.203 --> 03:11:42.517
[Lacer (Kai)]: We're low on time and to find someone of suitable nature in such short notice would be very suspicious, especially as coming into the city.
03:11:42.777 --> 03:11:46.621
[Lacer (Kai)]: We did notice that there were more guards than usual.
03:11:46.661 --> 03:11:52.227
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, the city has been a bit on edge.
03:11:55.885 --> 03:11:59.530
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Still thought our alchemist could do a bit of work.
03:11:59.591 --> 03:12:03.056
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: If I had a potion of invisibility, that could get one charge in place.
03:12:05.279 --> 03:12:06.020
[Lacer (Kai)]: Well, that's true.
03:12:06.200 --> 03:12:06.661
[Unmatched Speaker]: That's true.
03:12:07.462 --> 03:12:08.784
[Lacer (Kai)]: So, some arrow invisibility.
03:12:10.547 --> 03:12:10.928
[Lacer (Kai)]: Okay.
03:12:12.250 --> 03:12:13.952
[Lacer (Kai)]: I pull out my clicking candle.
03:12:14.433 --> 03:12:19.360
[Lacer (Kai)]: If we go by night, I can click this candle to give some sort of signal.
03:12:20.061 --> 03:12:22.585
[Lacer (Kai)]: You can see I snap my fingers.
03:12:23.257 --> 03:12:24.418
[Lacer (Kai)]: Mmm, I like it.
03:12:24.438 --> 03:12:27.021
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Getting the charges in place is one thing, detonating is another.
03:12:29.083 --> 03:12:33.809
[Riv (DM)]: Gromdal says, ah, no worry there, this'll do the trick.
03:12:34.029 --> 03:12:37.913
[Riv (DM)]: And he just shows you he's got like just bundles and bundles of fuse.
03:12:39.495 --> 03:12:42.859
[Riv (DM)]: Stick one of these in the keg, wind it as far as you need and just light it.
03:12:47.944 --> 03:12:50.667
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm guessing a flaming arrow would do the trick too, right?
03:12:51.688 --> 03:12:53.230
[Lacer (Kai)]: And I look at Ryo.
03:12:56.062 --> 03:12:57.684
[Lacer (Kai)]: Or an Invisible Servant.
03:12:59.126 --> 03:13:00.547
[JC (Ryo)]: Or a range issue.
03:13:00.567 --> 03:13:03.351
[JC (Ryo)]: If the charges are on the outside and not the inside of the tower, yes.
03:13:05.053 --> 03:13:06.815
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I think there's more of a range issue, but yeah.
03:13:07.956 --> 03:13:12.282
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: The longbow can reach out and touch from a long distance.
03:13:12.642 --> 03:13:13.663
[Riv (DM)]: Sorry, let me...
03:13:16.847 --> 03:13:19.130
[JC (Ryo)]: Sorry, my map was taking forever to load.
03:13:19.150 --> 03:13:20.712
[JC (Ryo)]: I didn't see where you pinged on the main map.
03:13:22.434 --> 03:13:23.996
[Riv (DM)]: So this is where the structure's being built?
03:13:25.017 --> 03:13:25.838
[JC (Ryo)]: Ah, that one, okay.
03:13:25.918 --> 03:13:26.018
[Riv (DM)]: Yep.
03:13:26.588 --> 03:13:29.991
[Riv (DM)]: I just made the blueprints active so you guys can switch to it whenever you want.
03:13:30.252 --> 03:13:31.733
[Riv (DM)]: Sorry, I forgot about that.
03:13:34.055 --> 03:13:35.157
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: How tall are we looking here?
03:13:35.177 --> 03:13:36.218
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That wasn't mentioned before.
03:13:36.338 --> 03:13:37.299
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yeah, a couple of hundred feet.
03:13:37.819 --> 03:13:38.940
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Like, four land-eye probably.
03:13:38.960 --> 03:13:39.761
[Lacer (Kai)]: Making huge.
03:13:40.182 --> 03:13:40.862
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah.
03:13:41.463 --> 03:13:41.863
[Lacer (Kai)]: Very big.
03:13:42.784 --> 03:13:47.929
[Lacer (Kai)]: Do I notice that there are cables in the two middle pillars?
03:13:49.050 --> 03:13:51.453
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, it's just sketches, yeah.
03:13:52.634 --> 03:13:56.578
[Riv (DM)]: I just like sketches like measuring distance and calculations and stuff, yeah.
03:13:57.942 --> 03:14:02.166
[Riv (DM)]: I thought they were like support cables, like getting them together.
03:14:02.527 --> 03:14:06.491
[Riv (DM)]: It's basically the main stone structure of the classic viaduct shape.
03:14:09.594 --> 03:14:14.059
[Riv (DM)]: So yeah, I guess to sort of recap... Oh no, all good.
03:14:14.079 --> 03:14:17.182
[Riv (DM)]: Sorry, Karim, you want to say something?
03:14:17.202 --> 03:14:19.104
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: None of our casters have Fly yet, do they?
03:14:21.046 --> 03:14:21.327
[Lacer (Kai)]: No.
03:14:23.209 --> 03:14:24.490
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm groundbound.
03:14:26.107 --> 03:14:30.193
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I was considering Levitate, but did not choose it.
03:14:32.076 --> 03:14:34.620
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: It's a long way up.
03:14:34.640 --> 03:14:36.944
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Well, if you start from the top, it's only a short way down.
03:14:38.386 --> 03:14:41.050
[Lacer (Kai)]: We do have a rope, don't we, Mir?
03:14:41.792 --> 03:14:43.054
[Lacer (Kai)]: That may help.
03:14:44.095 --> 03:14:46.439
[Lacer (Kai)]: How long is our rope?
03:14:46.459 --> 03:14:47.220
[Lacer (Kai)]: Six feet.
03:14:47.875 --> 03:14:55.085
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: When you first mentioned it was underneath my brain, has anyone seen BBR, the Bollywood movie where they do the... No, sorry.
03:14:55.706 --> 03:14:56.567
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'll link the thing.
03:14:57.629 --> 03:14:58.050
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: General.
03:14:58.630 --> 03:15:01.735
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I don't know why my brain went this way.
03:15:01.755 --> 03:15:04.339
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I would expect... And now people are talking about rope.
03:15:04.579 --> 03:15:06.782
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: My brain is just going, no, don't, don't do it.
03:15:06.942 --> 03:15:07.884
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That's a terrible idea.
03:15:09.887 --> 03:15:13.932
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I would expect a bridge under construction would have a lot of scaffolding around it.
03:15:16.636 --> 03:15:17.157
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I agree.
03:15:18.841 --> 03:15:21.644
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Honestly, it'll be a case of laying our eyes on it and seeing what we can do.
03:15:21.824 --> 03:15:23.386
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: It's just a case of preparing beforehand.
03:15:23.946 --> 03:15:29.672
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I definitely think the invisibility potion is a free placement.
03:15:30.713 --> 03:15:31.574
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Well, near enough to.
03:15:31.614 --> 03:15:40.763
[Lacer (Kai)]: Grondor, do you plan on laying the charges during the day or by night?
03:15:42.865 --> 03:15:46.789
[Riv (DM)]: Let's be clear, friend.
03:15:47.073 --> 03:15:51.938
[Riv (DM)]: I build things, I don't blow them up, so...
03:15:51.958 --> 03:15:52.959
[Lacer (Kai)]: Turn to Barrack.
03:15:54.020 --> 03:15:58.825
[Lacer (Kai)]: Is it a night mission or is it a day skirmish?
03:15:59.226 --> 03:16:00.767
[Lacer (Kai)]: Gotta be night.
03:16:00.787 --> 03:16:01.808
[Riv (DM)]: Well, agreed.
03:16:02.449 --> 03:16:10.638
[Riv (DM)]: Night is probably best, but again, it's not exactly the sort of thing that we're experts at, so we will take what you say into consideration.
03:16:12.159 --> 03:16:13.941
[Riv (DM)]: Personally, I feel like night makes sense.
03:16:17.347 --> 03:16:21.471
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Evening would be best to get as many away as possible.
03:16:22.672 --> 03:16:22.912
[Riv (DM)]: True.
03:16:23.213 --> 03:16:24.854
[Riv (DM)]: It's likely to be less people on guard at night.
03:16:26.776 --> 03:16:26.976
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Wow.
03:16:27.237 --> 03:16:33.363
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: The old dawn and dusk get people while they're changing shifts and less alert.
03:16:34.484 --> 03:16:37.407
[Lacer (Kai)]: Since these are mostly humans, hopefully they're guiding.
03:16:38.187 --> 03:16:40.029
[Lacer (Kai)]: There's no way to draw on this, is there?
03:16:41.350 --> 03:16:42.251
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, you should be able to.
03:16:42.311 --> 03:16:44.974
[Lacer (Kai)]: Try to, but it won't let me do the draw thingy.
03:16:46.203 --> 03:16:48.446
[Riv (DM)]: Hmm, is there a system?
03:16:48.486 --> 03:16:51.791
[Lacer (Kai)]: You've got a pencil drawing tool.
03:16:53.614 --> 03:16:55.977
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: The pencil just does white and changes the colour.
03:16:56.618 --> 03:16:56.958
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, okay.
03:16:57.038 --> 03:16:59.422
[Riv (DM)]: The little cog at the bottom, Configure Drawing?
03:16:59.442 --> 03:16:59.622
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yeah.
03:16:59.842 --> 03:17:01.064
[Riv (DM)]: You can change your stroke colour.
03:17:05.631 --> 03:17:06.672
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Hmm, I can change it.
03:17:07.574 --> 03:17:10.017
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: It doesn't change the actual colour.
03:17:10.182 --> 03:17:15.087
[Riv (DM)]: Um, you need, yeah, you make sure you click configure default to like lock it in.
03:17:15.407 --> 03:17:15.888
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, okay.
03:17:15.908 --> 03:17:16.128
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
03:17:16.388 --> 03:17:17.770
[Riv (DM)]: And then, um, then you're good.
03:17:20.733 --> 03:17:22.655
[Riv (DM)]: It won't, um, update the previous thing that you had put on.
03:17:24.016 --> 03:17:28.300
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: So just looking at it, my thinking is the central one is the risky one.
03:17:29.581 --> 03:17:36.088
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Now that should probably be done with stealth, probably invisibility and whatever we do need to do to wrap around.
03:17:38.954 --> 03:17:42.379
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: The other two, because the pillars are hollow, you said, with stairwells.
03:17:42.639 --> 03:17:44.362
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That's right.
03:17:45.383 --> 03:17:48.067
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: They're going to be the ones that we split force and do messy.
03:17:48.227 --> 03:18:02.467
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: But my initial thoughts is assault forces, which are up there, place the charges, and then we have a stealth team coming over the top somehow to do that one.
03:18:03.949 --> 03:18:05.772
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm guessing that's where we come in.
03:18:07.220 --> 03:18:10.748
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: These stairs though, there must be some internal structure to the bridge.
03:18:13.975 --> 03:18:17.924
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Well yeah, all the pillars are hollow.
03:18:18.164 --> 03:18:19.868
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Just these two, just these two.
03:18:21.392 --> 03:18:23.777
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: And this is where the water runs.
03:18:26.373 --> 03:18:29.197
[Riv (DM)]: Yep, so the two crossed pillars are the only hollow ones.
03:18:29.638 --> 03:18:34.926
[Riv (DM)]: They've got a spiral stair, not like a perfect spiral, you know, a stair that winds its way up.
03:18:35.707 --> 03:18:45.643
[Riv (DM)]: There are supports, you know, every now and then there'll be like a landing, so there might be, you know, half a dozen landings up and there are sort of structures of support inside each landing, just to keep their integrity there.
03:18:47.445 --> 03:18:51.451
[Riv (DM)]: The place that Gromdahl thinks is the best is on one of these landings, sort of halfway up.
03:18:52.173 --> 03:18:54.456
[Riv (DM)]: The other pillars are completely stone.
03:18:54.436 --> 03:18:59.788
[Riv (DM)]: And yeah, at the top, I should probably...
03:19:02.013 --> 03:19:29.252
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah at the top like the there'll be like a there's a miniature sort of just a small sort of building like this that sits on top sort of tucked behind you can't quite see in the drawing and i couldn't make it work but yeah miniature sort of a you know like a guard post sort of thing up on top there um as you come out watchtower yeah not not like a really tall tower like this um but yeah just like an opening yep does our druid have flying yet
03:19:31.257 --> 03:19:33.659
[Lacer (Kai)]: Our druid is on a personal mission.
03:19:35.020 --> 03:19:35.701
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Aren't you part druid?
03:19:36.301 --> 03:19:39.444
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yes, I'm only a second level druid.
03:19:40.125 --> 03:19:42.627
[Lacer (Kai)]: Can you wild shape into anything that flies?
03:19:43.027 --> 03:19:45.529
[Lacer (Kai)]: No, unfortunately I can't.
03:19:46.710 --> 03:19:50.333
[Lacer (Kai)]: That's well outside my skill.
03:19:51.755 --> 03:19:54.377
[Lacer (Kai)]: I can crawl up walls as a spider, that's what I can do.
03:19:54.417 --> 03:19:57.680
[Lacer (Kai)]: That's a possibility.
03:19:58.981 --> 03:20:00.302
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That's a long climb, but...
03:20:04.501 --> 03:20:08.385
[JC (Ryo)]: Slightly impractical in spite of carrying explosives though.
03:20:08.405 --> 03:20:09.305
[Lacer (Kai)]: Everything you're carrying is...
03:20:09.325 --> 03:20:10.607
[Lacer (Kai)]: They wouldn't expect it, right?
03:20:10.727 --> 03:20:13.029
[Lacer (Kai)]: If it's at night time, they would not expect it.
03:20:14.270 --> 03:20:17.353
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Everything you're carrying goes into a pocket dimension, so that's not an issue.
03:20:19.535 --> 03:20:19.655
[JC (Ryo)]: Mhm.
03:20:19.675 --> 03:20:25.280
[JC (Ryo)]: My mistake.
03:20:25.300 --> 03:20:27.682
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm tempted to send someone sneaky.
03:20:28.423 --> 03:20:32.567
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Sneaky in one way or another up to tag the underneath one.
03:20:34.032 --> 03:20:39.561
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: While we send aggressive forces on the pillars, but...
03:20:39.581 --> 03:20:46.472
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: So how many of these kegs do we have per location to place?
03:20:48.094 --> 03:20:48.335
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Three.
03:20:49.677 --> 03:20:52.001
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Three per... Three, I don't care.
03:20:52.221 --> 03:20:55.246
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: So we'd need to send two to do the central, at minimum.
03:20:59.132 --> 03:21:01.035
[JC (Ryo)]: So you're thinking me and Eredor do one?
03:21:02.922 --> 03:21:10.829
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, as you're pondering Grumdal just asked if you put any thought to how you might attach the kegs to the underside.
03:21:12.391 --> 03:21:14.193
[Riv (DM)]: You don't want to just hold them and then light them, right?
03:21:16.054 --> 03:21:16.295
[Lacer (Kai)]: No.
03:21:17.175 --> 03:21:18.036
[Lacer (Kai)]: If only we had web.
03:21:19.378 --> 03:21:21.880
[Lacer (Kai)]: I can turn into a giant wolf spider.
03:21:23.582 --> 03:21:25.684
[Lacer (Kai)]: I'm sure I'd be able to spin some web for you.
03:21:26.464 --> 03:21:28.306
[Lacer (Kai)]: Does a giant wolf spider have web?
03:21:28.706 --> 03:21:30.448
[Lacer (Kai)]: I have
03:21:31.137 --> 03:21:35.950
[Lacer (Kai)]: Webwalker, Websense, Spiderclamp.
03:21:35.970 --> 03:21:38.837
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I don't suppose any of your ships have a catapult?
03:21:43.490 --> 03:21:44.111
[Riv (DM)]: Barret glass.
03:21:45.455 --> 03:21:46.277
[Riv (DM)]: Unfortunately not.
03:21:48.586 --> 03:21:52.491
[Riv (DM)]: Probably couldn't get close enough anyway, the river gets a bit rough and rocky up there.
03:21:53.372 --> 03:22:00.181
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Maybe after this you might want to reconsider, cause uh, should say you guys are going loud and um, your ships are about to become warships.
03:22:01.042 --> 03:22:02.524
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Believe me friend, we've thought about it.
03:22:04.827 --> 03:22:08.092
[Riv (DM)]: Gromdal says, I was um, I mean take a look at this.
03:22:08.512 --> 03:22:13.058
[Riv (DM)]: And he sort of rolls one of the gigs over and you can see he's got um,
03:22:13.612 --> 03:22:27.171
[Riv (DM)]: On the top and the bottom of the keg, there are these two little holes that look like they've been sort of manually cut, and he holds up a hammer and like a metal stake and says, I was sort of pondering this myself.
03:22:28.253 --> 03:22:33.139
[Riv (DM)]: I suppose you could try and hammer them directly in, so I tried, you know, I cut these holes.
03:22:34.642 --> 03:22:43.534
[Riv (DM)]: In theory, if you had enough hands free, you could just hammer them in.
03:22:49.454 --> 03:22:52.218
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Still, it has to be on the underside, even as a spider.
03:22:53.860 --> 03:22:56.724
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Spider can climb on the roof, but the moment they swap out, they're gonna fall.
03:22:58.527 --> 03:22:59.348
[Lacer (Kai)]: That's true.
03:23:01.130 --> 03:23:04.796
[Lacer (Kai)]: I can get them up there, but I can't do anything else.
03:23:06.278 --> 03:23:11.865
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: If we can get a rope all the way around the bridge, we could climb down it to the underneath.
03:23:12.627 --> 03:23:16.232
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Well, the climbing rope just eats, like, grips, doesn't it?
03:23:17.153 --> 03:23:17.233
[Unmatched Speaker]: Mhm.
03:23:18.412 --> 03:23:22.817
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: So you could use the climbing rope just to, like, grip either side and use it as, like, handholds.
03:23:25.119 --> 03:23:28.723
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: We are also talking to a fleet of seamen.
03:23:29.885 --> 03:23:30.525
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: They have ropes.
03:23:31.767 --> 03:23:33.769
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Surely we can get a rope to go all the way around.
03:23:34.590 --> 03:23:35.511
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: If that were an option.
03:23:36.652 --> 03:23:37.053
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Oh yeah.
03:23:37.073 --> 03:23:41.818
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: It always takes just one guard on top, though, to see it and go, why is this giant rope?
03:23:41.838 --> 03:23:44.301
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I don't know.
03:23:44.321 --> 03:23:46.603
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: The magical rope sounds quite gonna help.
03:23:47.024 --> 03:23:48.385
[Riv (DM)]: And this Earendal pipes up and says,
03:23:49.208 --> 03:23:52.251
[Riv (DM)]: You know, there's a spell I've been wanting to try for a while.
03:23:54.313 --> 03:23:55.254
[Riv (DM)]: And he just sort of smiles.
03:23:56.496 --> 03:23:59.699
[Riv (DM)]: You know, the... bang, people go flying.
03:23:59.719 --> 03:24:04.184
[Riv (DM)]: I always wondered what that would be like from someone, if someone was up on a tall building.
03:24:07.187 --> 03:24:08.768
[Riv (DM)]: And... he sort of smiles to himself a little bit.
03:24:10.830 --> 03:24:18.118
[Riv (DM)]: Just a comment I remember Deathmouse said the other day about how he wants to blast someone off a structure with, um, Thunderwave.
03:24:21.440 --> 03:24:31.392
[Lacer (Kai)]: Maybe we'll keep this plan B. I could, if you want, Erendor and I could sneak up and plant the three charges at the top.
03:24:33.114 --> 03:24:35.837
[Lacer (Kai)]: We may need some sort of diversion or something.
03:24:36.758 --> 03:24:43.306
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Well, if we do, how many men can we steal from Barak to push this?
03:24:46.810 --> 03:24:48.472
[Riv (DM)]: Do you mean to like come with you and your group?
03:24:49.173 --> 03:24:49.573
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yeah.
03:24:50.009 --> 03:24:51.231
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, for them to plan the other side.
03:24:51.251 --> 03:24:52.994
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: You said you were willing to push one up.
03:24:53.114 --> 03:24:56.740
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: If you can send one tower and we push the other or we split.
03:24:57.802 --> 03:25:07.478
[Riv (DM)]: Yep, so they are planning, well, what we're planning on doing is taking some of the crew from
03:25:08.453 --> 03:25:31.018
[Riv (DM)]: The other ships so that those other ships are leaner therefore allowing them to carry more passengers and then we can concentrate more of our more working men um on the on the main ship to help with the infiltration now bear in mind remember we're not soldiers we're not necessarily expert fighters but there are hard-working ladies and a few of us
03:25:30.998 --> 03:25:41.191
[Riv (DM)]: Um, have a bit of familiarity with the blade so we're not necessarily that useless but don't expect a, you know, 100 man fighting force but we could probably land a few strong men.
03:25:41.551 --> 03:25:45.977
[Riv (DM)]: Um, I'm sure we could have half a dozen or more go up either side.
03:25:47.699 --> 03:25:51.724
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That'd be enough if we moved up the party.
03:25:54.100 --> 03:25:56.142
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Mm, potentially that could be a distraction.
03:25:56.363 --> 03:25:59.386
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Depends on how heavy the guard is at the camp, yeah, each camp.
03:26:00.407 --> 03:26:03.691
[Riv (DM)]: Aye, that's, that's one of the key things, isn't it?
03:26:03.711 --> 03:26:07.155
[Riv (DM)]: How many do we need to subdue the prison camps?
03:26:07.576 --> 03:26:09.097
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: And how many can we distract?
03:26:11.901 --> 03:26:12.041
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Mm-hmm.
03:26:12.061 --> 03:26:21.812
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Do you have much of a plan for how to inch, to gain the trust of the workers and shepherd them out without a mass panic?
03:26:22.670 --> 03:26:23.553
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: That's a good point.
03:26:23.573 --> 03:26:26.262
[Lacer (Kai)]: Mass panic may actually be in our advantage.
03:26:26.523 --> 03:26:32.443
[Lacer (Kai)]: That might be the thing, the distraction, you know, if it's timed correctly.
03:26:35.073 --> 03:26:35.674
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Very good idea.
03:26:35.714 --> 03:26:37.796
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: We don't have any idea where the prison camps are.
03:26:37.816 --> 03:26:40.038
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Are they at the military camps at each base?
03:26:40.058 --> 03:26:41.279
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Or have we got nothing?
03:26:41.299 --> 03:26:44.642
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: We'll need to scout it out before we arrive.
03:26:44.982 --> 03:26:50.107
[Riv (DM)]: Based on the diagrams, it looks like the camps themselves are pretty close to the base of the tower.
03:26:50.147 --> 03:26:51.388
[Riv (DM)]: They don't want them too far away.
03:26:52.109 --> 03:26:56.353
[Riv (DM)]: So you can imagine they're probably, you know, within this area somewhere down here.
03:26:59.516 --> 03:26:59.636
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yeah.
03:26:59.656 --> 03:26:59.896
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: So...
03:27:01.798 --> 03:27:02.599
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Okay.
03:27:02.731 --> 03:27:15.003
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: we have a stealth team find some way to the top to place the charges underneath using the help of the grippy rope and whatever else they can use.
03:27:17.045 --> 03:27:19.327
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Bottom teams assault the worker camps.
03:27:20.228 --> 03:27:22.770
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: It'll cause a distraction, maybe get us a few reinforcements.
03:27:23.751 --> 03:27:25.433
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: It is going to result in civilian death.
03:27:26.414 --> 03:27:28.536
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That might be the price we have to pay.
03:27:30.322 --> 03:27:34.266
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: And while that distraction's going on, an assault team goes up each tower.
03:27:35.267 --> 03:27:37.069
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: A and B places the charges.
03:27:38.110 --> 03:27:39.111
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: And then we run the fuck away.
03:27:41.513 --> 03:27:42.954
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That's about all I got.
03:27:46.198 --> 03:27:49.060
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Are we dealing with too many unknowns here to get too detailed?
03:27:50.522 --> 03:27:52.023
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Are we able to time the charges?
03:27:53.324 --> 03:27:55.907
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Do we know the burn rate of Fuze, etc.?
03:27:55.547 --> 03:27:55.907
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: ?
03:27:57.018 --> 03:27:58.860
[Riv (DM)]: You can sort of judge it.
03:27:59.320 --> 03:28:02.523
[Riv (DM)]: Every few meters correlates to, you know, half a minute.
03:28:03.884 --> 03:28:07.868
[Riv (DM)]: I should mention though, they don't necessarily all have to go off at the same time.
03:28:07.908 --> 03:28:15.494
[Riv (DM)]: They could be spread depending on, you know, whatever is most convenient.
03:28:15.514 --> 03:28:19.237
[Riv (DM)]: I guess just one thing to bear in mind, as soon as one goes off, the jig will be up.
03:28:20.559 --> 03:28:26.704
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: The longer that goes on, then the more chances there are for things to get out of hand.
03:28:35.898 --> 03:28:40.386
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: If anything goes wrong, do you have any more explosive?
03:28:42.069 --> 03:28:43.711
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: As a plan B?
03:28:45.434 --> 03:28:47.157
[Riv (DM)]: Oh, we can bring as many as we need.
03:28:48.380 --> 03:28:54.530
[Riv (DM)]: We've been slowly stockpiling it, trying to keep, you know, trying not to attract too much attention, but we've been stockpiling it over time.
03:28:57.575 --> 03:28:59.138
[JC (Ryo)]: How big are these cakes again, sir?
03:29:00.232 --> 03:29:04.721
[Riv (DM)]: Imagine like a bear keg, like those ones you buy from the supermarket.
03:29:04.741 --> 03:29:07.246
[Riv (DM)]: It's like sort of aluminium, large sort of bear keg thing.
03:29:07.466 --> 03:29:08.127
[JC (Ryo)]: Those five-litre ones?
03:29:10.893 --> 03:29:21.193
[Riv (DM)]: It's sort of like, I would imagine it being like a bit over a foot tall and then maybe half a foot radius or something like that.
03:29:22.928 --> 03:29:28.187
[Riv (DM)]: So it's not like a big wine barrel sort of thing, it's more of like a, yeah, hand-sized keg?
03:29:28.207 --> 03:29:28.950
[Riv (DM)]: I don't know.
03:29:28.970 --> 03:29:32.242
[Riv (DM)]: I'll send you a picture, if you like, over the, um, on Discord.
03:29:32.262 --> 03:29:35.132
[JC (Ryo)]: I don't know, just trying to figure out how many each person could carry.
03:29:35.264 --> 03:29:38.728
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, like, one person carrying three would be a bit of a struggle.
03:29:38.908 --> 03:29:40.029
[Riv (DM)]: You wouldn't be able to do anything else.
03:29:40.350 --> 03:29:45.055
[Riv (DM)]: But you could probably, like, strap two to your pack and then maybe carry one in front of you or something like that.
03:29:45.235 --> 03:29:46.797
[Riv (DM)]: But then, yeah.
03:29:46.817 --> 03:29:48.779
[Riv (DM)]: You wouldn't be able to, yeah.
03:29:48.799 --> 03:29:54.025
[Lacer (Kai)]: The only person I know who can carry three keys in our party would be Erendor with May Enchant.
03:29:55.546 --> 03:29:57.428
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Yeah.
03:29:57.448 --> 03:29:59.170
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Only we still had that giant wolf.
03:30:02.454 --> 03:30:03.415
[Unmatched Speaker]: Feels bad, man.
03:30:05.352 --> 03:30:05.933
[Unmatched Speaker]: If only.
03:30:10.378 --> 03:30:12.101
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Um...
03:30:12.121 --> 03:30:12.741
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Shaped Stone?
03:30:13.983 --> 03:30:14.664
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Has anyone got that?
03:30:15.585 --> 03:30:17.107
[Lacer (Kai)]: No, unfortunately not.
03:30:17.127 --> 03:30:19.911
[Lacer (Kai)]: I have Shaped Water.
03:30:21.092 --> 03:30:22.914
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I have Stone Cunning, but that's it.
03:30:23.816 --> 03:30:28.942
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Seeing the ways of making handholds once you get to the top.
03:30:28.962 --> 03:30:34.269
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Honestly, the two towers are the quote-unquote relatively easy.
03:30:34.309 --> 03:30:35.190
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That is just...
03:30:35.660 --> 03:30:38.143
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Face tank, smash and grab, whips in, blow it.
03:30:38.964 --> 03:30:57.645
[Lacer (Kai)]: What happens if we go with one of the teams say on B and we face tank with them and then we push up all the way to the top and then to the middle one and blow that first before retreating the way we came and then blowing on our way out as we get to the base of B. DM.
03:30:58.927 --> 03:30:59.667
[JC (Ryo)]: Just an idea.
03:30:59.928 --> 03:31:01.870
[Lacer (Kai)]: It's like an up and down.
03:31:03.132 --> 03:31:06.717
[JC (Ryo)]: With the Roper climbing, I could probably get underneath the central one.
03:31:06.737 --> 03:31:07.718
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, that's what I was saying.
03:31:07.918 --> 03:31:08.599
[JC (Ryo)]: Affix it there.
03:31:09.340 --> 03:31:11.723
[JC (Ryo)]: And affix it where I could probably hit it with a flaming arrow.
03:31:13.045 --> 03:31:17.771
[JC (Ryo)]: And then on the way back down, hit A or B and do A and B with timers.
03:31:22.597 --> 03:31:25.381
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: That was the only thought I had for dealing with it being underneath.
03:31:25.401 --> 03:31:27.063
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: How much weight can a Roper climbing hold?
03:31:27.944 --> 03:31:28.505
[Riv (DM)]: Heaps.
03:31:28.525 --> 03:31:29.486
[Riv (DM)]: 3,000 pounds.
03:31:30.307 --> 03:31:31.789
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Okay, so it could easily support
03:31:32.073 --> 03:31:37.102
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: The Rope of Climbing could lash the three kegs in place.
03:31:37.422 --> 03:31:39.145
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: You wanna sacrifice it?
03:31:39.846 --> 03:31:43.012
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I mean, it's an easy solution.
03:31:43.032 --> 03:31:50.144
[JC (Ryo)]: I'm more thinking using the Rope of Climbing to get up there and then use a couple of pythons to use the normal rope to attach these to the bottom of the bridge.
03:31:50.685 --> 03:31:52.188
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Provided there's something to attach it to.
03:31:53.109 --> 03:31:55.313
[JC (Ryo)]: Is there any reason- It's a bridge made of stone, yes?
03:31:55.613 --> 03:32:00.642
[Lacer (Kai)]: If I bring water, I can freeze the pegs.
03:32:01.363 --> 03:32:07.574
[JC (Ryo)]: If the bridge is made of stone, I should be able to get some pythons in between the stone slabs and use that to hold the weight up.
03:32:08.055 --> 03:32:10.118
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yeah.
03:32:11.200 --> 03:32:14.366
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Rope of Climbing is definitely how we get the kegs in place.
03:32:15.107 --> 03:32:16.710
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I don't really see any other realistic option.
03:32:17.635 --> 03:32:24.132
[Riv (DM)]: Um, Rio, how, sorry, remind me what you mean, like when would you shoot the arrow at it?
03:32:24.152 --> 03:32:25.175
[Riv (DM)]: And how were you planning to climb up?
03:32:25.195 --> 03:32:26.157
[Riv (DM)]: Were you climbing up from the bottom?
03:32:27.661 --> 03:32:30.529
[JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, if we climb up from the bottom to place the kegs on the central one.
03:32:30.770 --> 03:32:30.970
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah.
03:32:33.953 --> 03:32:34.774
[Riv (DM)]: And then you like shoot it.
03:32:35.535 --> 03:32:39.621
[JC (Ryo)]: And fix them in a way that I'd be able to shoot an arrow at it afterwards.
03:32:40.882 --> 03:32:42.545
[Riv (DM)]: It's a long way up.
03:32:43.065 --> 03:32:47.331
[Riv (DM)]: I think with your longbow, what's your longbow range?
03:32:47.411 --> 03:32:48.413
[Riv (DM)]: It's like 600 or something.
03:32:48.433 --> 03:32:51.497
[JC (Ryo)]: 150 no disadvantage, 600 disadvantage.
03:32:51.637 --> 03:32:53.239
[JC (Ryo)]: But he's a sharpshooter so he doesn't have disadvantage.
03:32:53.419 --> 03:32:54.561
[JC (Ryo)]: I don't have sharpshooter yet.
03:32:55.098 --> 03:32:58.325
[Riv (DM)]: It's probably in range.
03:33:00.088 --> 03:33:01.852
[Riv (DM)]: It would be a good shot.
03:33:02.273 --> 03:33:05.880
[Riv (DM)]: It would be high AC probably, but definitely in range.
03:33:07.063 --> 03:33:11.031
[Riv (DM)]: I guess one thing to bear in mind, this is all water.
03:33:11.011 --> 03:33:29.408
[Riv (DM)]: Raging River might be a bit difficult to get out there to start climbing up or even to shoot from because if you're shooting from here it's probably like this distance from out here is going to be quite far but you can't just stand directly underneath and shoot up because it's that's why i'm asking for the rangers yeah how high up how far is the bank
03:33:29.506 --> 03:33:30.908
[Riv (DM)]: Yep.
03:33:30.928 --> 03:33:32.029
[Riv (DM)]: Need to do some Pythagoras.
03:33:32.810 --> 03:33:36.514
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, I can't give you the exact numbers because video game...
03:33:36.614 --> 03:33:40.539
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: If we were to bring physics into this for a second...
03:33:40.559 --> 03:33:41.020
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Please do.
03:33:41.100 --> 03:33:42.361
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: I'm just talking ballpark distances.
03:33:43.463 --> 03:33:46.066
[Lacer (Kai)]: Dundar can fireball it.
03:33:46.747 --> 03:33:47.327
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Dundar could.
03:33:47.888 --> 03:33:54.636
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Could we bring more explosives and blow holes from the top of the bridge?
03:33:55.915 --> 03:33:57.646
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: And just drop more in.
03:33:58.633 --> 03:34:00.384
[Lacer (Kai)]: Place as we go, chain explosive.
03:34:01.068 --> 03:34:02.095
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: As we go, yeah.
03:34:03.020 --> 03:34:09.827
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: Why is an explosion in the open underneath the bridge greater than an explosion within the bridge from the top?
03:34:09.847 --> 03:34:12.851
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Blowing out the keyhole or the keystone, I guess is the idea.
03:34:14.833 --> 03:34:16.154
[Kiwi (Dondar)]: But you can blow that out from within.
03:34:16.534 --> 03:34:19.438
[Riv (DM)]: Crumbdale says, you could try and blow your way down.
03:34:20.939 --> 03:34:23.021
[Riv (DM)]: The key thing is knocking out the bottom of the thing.
03:34:23.682 --> 03:34:32.031
[Riv (DM)]: If you stacked up a lot of gunpowder, you could blow all the way through down to the bottom from the top, but you would need a lot and also
03:34:32.011 --> 03:34:36.957
[Riv (DM)]: The other thing to bear in mind, like I was saying, too much damage and it'll all come down while you're still up there.
03:34:42.424 --> 03:34:43.805
[Riv (DM)]: So it's definitely a possibility.
03:34:45.187 --> 03:34:51.855
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: With the rope of climbing idea, we don't need JC to go up there and do it.
03:34:51.875 --> 03:34:57.041
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: We could send someone up in spider form carrying a couple of kegs because it goes into a pocket dimension.
03:34:58.483 --> 03:35:00.145
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: And they could have the rope with them to
03:35:01.036 --> 03:35:03.278
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Hold them in place while they're placing the kegs afterwards.
03:35:11.547 --> 03:35:19.375
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: The idea would be we have a spider form and maybe someone very sneaky with a potion and invisibility going up the inside.
03:35:19.395 --> 03:35:21.317
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: It'd be a very big climb.
03:35:22.878 --> 03:35:24.620
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: It'd be a very dangerous climb.
03:35:24.640 --> 03:35:29.625
[Lacer (Kai)]: I think the only person suitable would be a look over to
03:35:30.719 --> 03:35:32.381
[Lacer (Kai)]: What's Erendor?
03:35:33.223 --> 03:35:40.312
[Lacer (Kai)]: I think that Mage Hand will come in handy a lot if we're doing such... and he's got a high... high dexterity.
03:35:40.913 --> 03:35:42.095
[Lacer (Kai)]: It's a hell of a climb though.
03:35:42.996 --> 03:35:45.580
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Even with the rope existing.
03:35:46.020 --> 03:35:49.205
[Riv (DM)]: Do you mean to use my Mage Hand to pass the rope down to you or something?
03:35:49.225 --> 03:35:53.030
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: We need two people to get there because one person can't carry all the cakes.
03:35:54.973 --> 03:35:55.494
[Lacer (Kai)]: Exactly.
03:35:59.920 --> 03:36:00.000
[Lacer (Kai)]: Hmm.
03:36:03.119 --> 03:36:07.695
[Riv (DM)]: Well, bunch of good ideas.
03:36:08.738 --> 03:36:34.628
[Riv (DM)]: I how about we call it for the night here um yeah you guys can think about it and chat about it in the discord and whatnot um and yeah there are a couple of things we're gonna get to but it's all good we can do it next time and yeah you can i'll leave um this um these blueprints up so if you want to jump in and have a look at any point have a chat about all good but yeah take a week or two to think about it and chat with each other and then um yeah we can
03:36:36.177 --> 03:36:37.118
[Riv (DM)]: Pick it up next time.
03:36:38.019 --> 03:36:38.760
[Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, sounds good.
03:36:39.161 --> 03:36:40.763
[Lacer (Kai)]: Sounds good.
03:36:40.783 --> 03:36:42.345
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Planning is always a challenge.
03:36:43.026 --> 03:36:43.707
[Riv (DM)]: I love it, dude.
03:36:44.067 --> 03:36:44.788
[Riv (DM)]: I absolutely love it.
03:36:45.529 --> 03:36:47.392
[Riv (DM)]: It's one of the most fun things to do in the game.
03:36:48.133 --> 03:36:50.616
[Lacer (Kai)]: And then you still have to roll to see if it works.
03:36:50.696 --> 03:36:52.478
[Riv (DM)]: And then we turn it up.
03:36:52.498 --> 03:36:53.900
[Riv (DM)]: Then we turn it up and it all turns to shit.
03:36:53.920 --> 03:36:54.101
[Riv (DM)]: Yep.
03:36:55.142 --> 03:36:56.884
[Riv (DM)]: The, like, week's been planning.
03:36:57.505 --> 03:36:59.988
[Riv (DM)]: Absolutely shitshow.
03:37:00.008 --> 03:37:04.294
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I think the worst I've ever had in a campaign was we were doing a raid on an orc camp.
03:37:05.405 --> 03:37:08.268
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: And going over the... We had it all planned out, it was perfect.
03:37:08.328 --> 03:37:10.571
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: We went over the fence, made a tiny bit of noise.
03:37:11.813 --> 03:37:14.536
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: And so we got the guy that heard us, but somebody heard that.
03:37:15.237 --> 03:37:16.658
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: So we got him and then somebody heard that.
03:37:17.259 --> 03:37:23.927
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: And by the end of the fucking camp, we were down three people and we'd killed 50 fucking orcs.
03:37:23.947 --> 03:37:30.274
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I shit you not, there was just a pile of corpses on the side of the screen from the guys we cleared and it was just a mess, it was a shitshow.
03:37:31.996 --> 03:37:33.378
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yeah, good times, man.
03:37:33.398 --> 03:37:34.399
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Things go badly.
03:37:37.400 --> 03:37:38.041
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: Oh well.
03:37:39.102 --> 03:37:39.463
[Unmatched Speaker]: All good.
03:37:40.864 --> 03:37:47.953
[Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm gonna need to brush up on my World War 2 history, play some more post-scriptum to deal with Arnhem Bridge.
03:37:48.374 --> 03:37:49.335
[Riv (DM)]: Yep.
03:37:49.355 --> 03:37:50.817
[Riv (DM)]: How much explosive do we need?
03:37:52.619 --> 03:37:55.123
[Riv (DM)]: Yeah, there are a few solutions.
03:37:55.423 --> 03:37:57.145
[Riv (DM)]: I'm excited to see how we go.
03:37:57.966 --> 03:38:00.910
[Riv (DM)]: I will switch off the thing.
