01:30.368 --> 01:31.449 [Riv (DM)]: What the fuck? 01:31.489 --> 01:35.133 [Riv (DM)]: Just fucking with you from last time. 01:35.934 --> 01:40.879 [Riv (DM)]: No, so you went and finally went to the meeting. 01:40.859 --> 02:07.862 [Riv (DM)]: In the Miriel's Rest, the graveyard, and it turns out it was the girl Nia that you had rescued some weeks earlier from the goblin dungeon who revealed herself to be none other than Valania Miriel, the daughter of the current governor of Val Miriel and, I guess, descendant of the long line of royalty who, through some, you know, 02:07.842 --> 02:16.313 [Riv (DM)]: Some ability of her ancestry, it was able to open a secret passage into the keep where you were led and you met the governor, Tarlous. 02:17.955 --> 02:28.568 [Riv (DM)]: He took you through, after some convincing from his daughter that you were not, you know, that you were not distrustful, he took you through his plan of 02:28.818 --> 02:36.900 [Riv (DM)]: Forming a rebellion, an actual organized rebellion rather than a, you know, just a chaos from the population. 02:37.601 --> 02:45.342 [Riv (DM)]: A formal rebellion whereby uniting the old, the kingdoms of old, 02:45.322 --> 02:50.650 [Riv (DM)]: Get representatives or leaders from each location spread around the continent. 02:51.151 --> 02:55.337 [Riv (DM)]: Try and bring people together so that we could actually form a proper rebellion, an organised rebellion. 02:55.838 --> 03:05.473 [Riv (DM)]: And so he laid out the locations and some information he'd gathered of those places where you could go and try and talk to the people there. 03:05.453 --> 03:12.548 [Riv (DM)]: He gave you also a box of sending stones, one tied to another peer that he has. 03:13.931 --> 03:22.348 [Riv (DM)]: Each sending stone will hopefully be given to a representative so that they can arrange a meeting or a gathering or something like that. 03:23.577 --> 03:25.360 [Riv (DM)]: I think that was basically where we left off. 03:25.460 --> 03:35.018 [Riv (DM)]: You left the keep, you headed back to Riv's Watch, the tavern that you're currently staying, and pondering where to go next. 03:36.019 --> 03:42.170 [Riv (DM)]: So, if you like, we can start that evening at the tavern, or we can start in the morning. 03:42.511 --> 03:43.333 [Riv (DM)]: What do you guys want to do? 03:43.353 --> 03:44.134 [Riv (DM)]: What are you feeling? 03:47.776 --> 03:51.061 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'm up to discuss that night, that evening. 03:51.081 --> 03:51.622 [Riv (DM)]: Cool. 03:51.642 --> 03:58.293 [Riv (DM)]: So why don't we say you come back into River's Watch and there's no one awake at this point. 03:58.594 --> 03:59.575 [Riv (DM)]: The tavern is cleared out. 04:02.580 --> 04:04.403 [Riv (DM)]: Probably honestly no bartender at this point. 04:05.705 --> 04:10.654 [Riv (DM)]: You can head back up to one of your rooms or something like that and meet together together. 04:13.138 --> 04:14.560 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, sounds good. 04:26.875 --> 04:28.457 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Just about to adjust that a little here. 04:37.886 --> 04:38.327 [Riv (DM)]: Alrighty. 04:43.432 --> 04:46.275 [Riv (DM)]: So Lacer was there something specific you wanted to discuss? 04:48.017 --> 04:49.038 [Lacer (Kai)]: I wanted to go to... 04:49.058 --> 04:52.461 [Lacer (Kai)]: I wanted everyone to go to meet up in Val's room. 04:52.981 --> 04:54.548 [Lacer (Kai)]: Or whoever's room sharing with Vale. 04:55.050 --> 05:00.535 [Lacer (Kai)]: And we just wanted to discuss the events of the evening and what to do in the morning. 05:00.555 --> 05:02.383 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Yeah, why did you try to kill his dad? 05:03.207 --> 05:04.308 [Lacer (Kai)]: I didn't know. 05:04.328 --> 05:06.130 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'm so sorry, Erendor. 05:06.371 --> 05:07.252 [Lacer (Kai)]: I didn't know it was your dad. 05:07.572 --> 05:13.079 [Lacer (Kai)]: I just saw it was a very suspicious old man that came to our table. 05:13.639 --> 05:15.201 [Lacer (Kai)]: And you didn't recognize him at first. 05:15.261 --> 05:16.082 [Lacer (Kai)]: I didn't know who he was. 05:16.883 --> 05:17.444 [Lacer (Kai)]: This is true. 05:18.245 --> 05:24.152 [Lacer (Kai)]: I thought he had ulterior motives, especially when he pulled out some fidget thing and 05:24.892 --> 05:25.773 [Lacer (Kai)]: You flicked it at your face? 05:25.813 --> 05:27.074 [Lacer (Kai)]: I thought something was gonna happen. 05:27.114 --> 05:27.895 [Lacer (Kai)]: I was gonna say... 05:28.676 --> 05:31.639 [Lacer (Kai)]: I was gonna cast a spell, like, as soon as something happened. 05:31.659 --> 05:32.580 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: You poisoned him before that! 05:35.343 --> 05:36.684 [Lacer (Kai)]: Well, he seemed to know. 05:36.724 --> 05:42.110 [Lacer (Kai)]: He seemed to know, even though I did it with very... Did anyone see me do it? 05:42.490 --> 05:43.931 [Lacer (Kai)]: Like, attempt to... 05:46.134 --> 05:48.556 [Riv (DM)]: I think you really badly failed your stealth check from memory. 05:49.377 --> 05:52.300 [Lacer (Kai)]: No, I'm pretty sure I did a good stealth check. 05:52.853 --> 05:54.094 [Riv (DM)]: Actually, you're right. 05:54.615 --> 05:54.915 [Riv (DM)]: You did. 05:55.676 --> 05:55.937 [Riv (DM)]: You did. 05:56.037 --> 05:58.099 [Riv (DM)]: So I don't think the rest of you would have actually seen it. 05:59.501 --> 06:02.344 [Riv (DM)]: You would have found out because Jarek saw it. 06:02.865 --> 06:06.890 [Riv (DM)]: Because he's a master spy and he said it on his way out. 06:06.930 --> 06:09.072 [Riv (DM)]: He said, next time you try to poison me or something like that. 06:09.132 --> 06:10.694 [Riv (DM)]: Like, you know, good try. 06:10.714 --> 06:11.155 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yes, yes, yes. 06:11.335 --> 06:11.916 [Lacer (Kai)]: I remember. 06:14.939 --> 06:17.342 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: Yeah, you rolled like a 20 or something, didn't you? 06:17.845 --> 06:19.769 [Lacer (Kai)]: Oh, 19 or something like that. 06:19.789 --> 06:21.071 [Lacer (Kai)]: I rolled really pretty high. 06:22.995 --> 06:23.495 [Lacer (Kai)]: Something like that. 06:23.616 --> 06:23.936 [Lacer (Kai)]: I don't know. 06:23.956 --> 06:24.758 [Lacer (Kai)]: I have to scroll up. 06:25.900 --> 06:27.483 [Lacer (Kai)]: I know I rolled decent. 06:28.184 --> 06:30.809 [Lacer (Kai)]: Anyway, my mistake. 06:31.751 --> 06:33.394 [Lacer (Kai)]: I won't try and make another again. 06:36.159 --> 06:36.399 [Lacer (Kai)]: Good. 06:37.982 --> 06:41.068 [Lacer (Kai)]: But next time I might try and gaslight him, you know? 06:46.128 --> 06:49.373 [Lacer (Kai)]: This evening, very, very interesting. 06:50.014 --> 06:53.499 [Lacer (Kai)]: The young girl and her father, you reckon we can trust them? 07:02.373 --> 07:03.474 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: The father, maybe not. 07:03.675 --> 07:04.716 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: The girl, sure. 07:06.379 --> 07:07.821 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, I agree, I agree. 07:08.242 --> 07:12.388 [Lacer (Kai)]: Something feels vaguely suspicious. 07:15.187 --> 07:17.676 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: A man in a powerful place with magic stones. 07:19.241 --> 07:20.225 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: Wanting more power. 07:21.007 --> 07:23.215 [Lacer (Kai)]: Actually, that's a good idea. 07:23.335 --> 07:25.744 [Lacer (Kai)]: Can someone identify what these stones actually do? 07:25.764 --> 07:27.289 [Lacer (Kai)]: I have no idea what they are. 07:37.090 --> 07:38.973 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Who has the power to do that? 07:39.253 --> 07:42.318 [Lacer (Kai)]: Who's got Identify spell? 07:42.358 --> 07:48.648 [Lacer (Kai)]: Can that be ritual cast or anything? 07:48.668 --> 07:49.229 [Lacer (Kai)]: It can, yep. 07:49.249 --> 07:50.531 [Lacer (Kai)]: Dondar, would you do the honours? 07:50.551 --> 07:54.597 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Yeah, I can go mumble to myself in a corner for a while. 07:57.962 --> 08:02.389 [Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, while you're doing that, I'd wanna cast Goodberry. 08:03.365 --> 08:07.871 [Lacer (Kai)]: And I pull out my Herbalism pouch. 08:07.931 --> 08:17.644 [Lacer (Kai)]: Out of my Herbalism pouch, I pull out a Mortar and Pestle, and I take two berries and I start crushing them while Dondarr's doing his ritual cast. 08:17.664 --> 08:17.884 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Oh no! 08:18.745 --> 08:22.370 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Well, yeah, whatever. 08:22.490 --> 08:27.938 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: I have the, um, I have the Pearl, so I can just do it instantly. 08:27.958 --> 08:28.438 [Lacer (Kai)]: Oh, you can? 08:29.179 --> 08:30.381 [Lacer (Kai)]: Okay, I do the... 08:30.401 --> 08:32.764 [Lacer (Kai)]: I crushed my good berries anyway. 08:33.436 --> 08:38.810 [Riv (DM)]: So you would, um, if you want to cast Inslee, you just got to spend a spell slot. 08:39.191 --> 08:40.334 [Riv (DM)]: Otherwise it would be 10 minutes. 08:42.520 --> 08:43.342 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Oh, okay. 08:43.382 --> 08:44.706 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: 10 minutes then, sure. 08:44.806 --> 08:45.067 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah. 08:45.929 --> 08:47.513 [Riv (DM)]: So what you, what are you doing with your herbalism kit? 08:48.252 --> 08:53.119 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'll pull out the mortar and pestle from the herbalism kit. 08:53.440 --> 08:55.182 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'll describe to you what I'm trying to do. 08:55.202 --> 09:08.342 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'm trying to grind or get the juice out of the good berries and then dilute it and see if I can make a light healing potion that lasts like a day, that heals like 1 HP. 09:08.983 --> 09:12.268 [Lacer (Kai)]: Just think about good berry but in liquid form. 09:12.248 --> 09:14.852 [Riv (DM)]: So, I mean, that's essentially what Goodberry is, right? 09:15.313 --> 09:17.155 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah. 09:19.018 --> 09:20.721 [Lacer (Kai)]: Instead of eating it, you can drink it. 09:21.842 --> 09:23.245 [Lacer (Kai)]: But it only lasts 24 hours. 09:23.966 --> 09:24.366 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, cool. 09:24.406 --> 09:25.448 [Riv (DM)]: I mean, that's exactly the same. 09:25.508 --> 09:26.349 [Riv (DM)]: So, that's cool. 09:26.449 --> 09:27.070 [Riv (DM)]: I like the idea. 09:27.150 --> 09:30.596 [Riv (DM)]: Why don't you roll me... What do you want to roll first? 09:30.616 --> 09:34.662 [Riv (DM)]: Like a nature check or a medicine check? 09:34.682 --> 09:35.443 [Lacer (Kai)]: I don't know. 09:35.703 --> 09:39.589 [Riv (DM)]: Whatever you want me to roll, I'll roll. 09:40.733 --> 09:41.118 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah. 09:42.051 --> 09:42.720 [Riv (DM)]: Why not? 09:42.740 --> 09:43.673 [Riv (DM)]: Roll Mason. 09:49.964 --> 09:51.405 [Riv (DM)]: Alright, 13. 09:52.086 --> 09:55.630 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, I mean it's fine, you can squeeze a berry into a little vial. 09:58.052 --> 10:07.561 [Riv (DM)]: You've figured out there's some like additive from your kit that you could add to it to make it last a bit longer and the magic from the good berry itself wouldn't dissipate. 10:08.262 --> 10:15.229 [Riv (DM)]: And yeah, you can have a vial that you can drink for one HP. 10:15.209 --> 10:17.031 [Lacer (Kai)]: Cool, that actually works. 10:17.132 --> 10:20.636 [Lacer (Kai)]: I was wondering if the magic would just, like, dissipate after I crush the berry. 10:20.656 --> 10:23.981 [Lacer (Kai)]: I mean, just, it's cool. 10:24.101 --> 10:24.421 [Riv (DM)]: I like it. 10:24.501 --> 10:24.982 [Riv (DM)]: It's a cool idea. 10:25.122 --> 10:27.365 [Riv (DM)]: It's for flavour. 10:27.385 --> 10:27.786 [Riv (DM)]: Alright. 10:28.026 --> 10:30.830 [Riv (DM)]: You're gonna have to get, um, vials, though, if you wanna keep doing it. 10:31.571 --> 10:31.851 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah. 10:32.432 --> 10:36.858 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'm sure someone's got a spare old potion vial they've drank. 10:37.018 --> 10:39.141 [Lacer (Kai)]: I think I've got one somewhere. 10:39.161 --> 10:40.502 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: No, I crush it and eat the bottle. 10:40.683 --> 10:41.504 [Lacer (Kai)]: You eat the bottle? 10:42.785 --> 10:43.326 [Lacer (Kai)]: No, I'm not. 10:46.057 --> 10:51.144 [Lacer (Kai)]: I see why you take that slashing damage every day. 10:54.568 --> 10:54.808 [Riv (DM)]: Cool. 10:55.309 --> 10:56.250 [Riv (DM)]: Over to Kiwi. 10:56.771 --> 10:58.814 [Riv (DM)]: How do you imagine your ritual looks Kiwi? 11:02.238 --> 11:03.079 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Or identify? 11:03.339 --> 11:09.988 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah. 11:12.955 --> 11:16.279 [Lacer (Kai)]: I think what Riv's trying to say is how do you cast your magics? 11:18.222 --> 11:20.265 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Well, all of my magics. 11:20.285 --> 11:22.488 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Probably it would be specific to identify. 11:22.508 --> 11:34.443 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: I imagine hands towards my head, kind of new X-Men Xavier style. 11:35.985 --> 11:39.570 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Hands towards my head, head down muttering. 11:40.327 --> 11:45.418 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: But, you know, maybe walk in circles while I do it, maybe stand still. 11:45.438 --> 11:45.739 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: You know? 11:46.882 --> 11:55.922 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, so your hands to your head, your Akeen sigil that is embedded in your forehead kind of starts glowing a bit and becomes more pronounced as the magic takes hold. 11:55.902 --> 12:00.252 [Riv (DM)]: And you start to slowly, over the 10 minutes, uncover the magical properties. 12:00.733 --> 12:02.477 [Riv (DM)]: So these are sending stones. 12:03.519 --> 12:06.566 [Riv (DM)]: They allow the user to cast the sending spell through it. 12:06.687 --> 12:10.555 [Riv (DM)]: So if you pick up one of the stones, you can find the right place on it. 12:10.596 --> 12:12.139 [Riv (DM)]: You have to turn it over and there's like a little 12:12.119 --> 12:23.490 [Riv (DM)]: Indentation, where you can put your thumb or finger, press in there, and the, you know, bit of purple energy will sort of spider its way around the stone, and you can speak into it. 12:23.970 --> 12:34.080 [Riv (DM)]: And anyone at the other end who has the stone will hear it, will hear what you're saying into it. 12:34.100 --> 12:35.942 [Lacer (Kai)]: Ah, that's pretty cool, pretty cool, Dondar. 12:35.982 --> 12:37.563 [Lacer (Kai)]: How many of these stones have we got? 12:37.583 --> 12:40.827 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: We have six, didn't we? 12:41.167 --> 12:41.367 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yep. 12:42.511 --> 12:43.072 [Lacer (Kai)]: Six. 12:47.576 --> 12:48.577 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Why didn't you give us three? 12:49.559 --> 12:50.259 [Riv (DM)]: He gave six. 12:50.279 --> 12:51.380 [Riv (DM)]: I gave you six. 12:51.481 --> 12:52.402 [Riv (DM)]: One per destination. 12:53.503 --> 12:54.604 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: He gave us six. 12:54.624 --> 12:55.445 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: He has six. 12:55.465 --> 12:57.367 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: He has the other pair. 12:57.387 --> 13:01.111 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Oh, he's got the other set. 13:01.151 --> 13:01.471 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Gotcha. 13:01.752 --> 13:05.255 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: We've got one end of the cup that's attached to it. 13:06.296 --> 13:11.522 [Lacer (Kai)]: So we keep one and then we have to go to five other places. 13:12.312 --> 13:14.054 [JC (Ryo)]: No, we have six to give out. 13:14.074 --> 13:15.155 [JC (Ryo)]: We don't have one for ourselves. 13:16.056 --> 13:16.557 [Lacer (Kai)]: Oh, okay. 13:16.897 --> 13:18.259 [Lacer (Kai)]: So we're kept out of the loot? 13:18.279 --> 13:19.019 [Lacer (Kai)]: That's kind of shitty. 13:19.039 --> 13:22.403 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: But we can use one of them ourselves until we give it away. 13:24.145 --> 13:28.050 [Lacer (Kai)]: Still kind of shitty. 13:28.070 --> 13:30.793 [Riv (DM)]: JC, you had a comment in the chat. 13:32.294 --> 13:32.695 [JC (Ryo)]: Yeah. 13:32.975 --> 13:35.818 [JC (Ryo)]: Dondar, could you see if this does anything? 13:36.098 --> 13:37.520 [JC (Ryo)]: I'll give him the dice I can count. 13:40.283 --> 13:41.965 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: This is the dice that was thrown at... 13:42.400 --> 13:43.481 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Someone's head, or?

14:01.681 --> 14:04.204 [Lacer (Kai)]: Adds it to the pile of things identified. 14:04.224 --> 14:06.146 [Lacer (Kai)]: That's less fireballs! 14:06.206 --> 14:07.187 [Lacer (Kai)]: Are we gonna sleep soon? 14:08.148 --> 14:09.049 [Lacer (Kai)]: It's morning. 14:09.552 --> 14:10.254 [Lacer (Kai)]: Wait, is it morning? 14:10.294 --> 14:11.136 [Lacer (Kai)]: I thought it was still night. 14:11.959 --> 14:13.724 [Riv (DM)]: I think it's like 2am, probably. 14:14.887 --> 14:18.397 [JC (Ryo)]: I thought it was morning because you let us long rest at the end of the last episode. 14:20.382 --> 14:22.127 [JC (Ryo)]: Oh yeah. 14:22.394 --> 14:24.858 [JC (Ryo)]: Hence the long rest, long rest, long rest in the chat. 14:25.198 --> 14:25.699 [JC (Ryo)]: Okay, well good. 14:25.719 --> 14:28.163 [Riv (DM)]: I mean, we're just time-travelling at the moment. 14:28.303 --> 14:29.846 [Riv (DM)]: This is previously last night. 14:32.951 --> 14:35.795 [Riv (DM)]: So yes, you can identify the dice. 14:37.418 --> 14:46.292 [Riv (DM)]: Looks like simple dice, but it hasn't weathered much, even though it was sitting out on a gravestone in Miriel's rest. 14:47.099 --> 14:50.488 [Riv (DM)]: You determine that it has a little magical enchantment on it. 14:51.029 --> 14:54.899 [Riv (DM)]: When you roll it, you can think of the number that you want to show up and it will show up. 14:56.162 --> 14:58.428 [Lacer (Kai)]: Oh my god, it's freaking loaded. 15:00.353 --> 15:01.215 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: This is Rio. 15:02.759 --> 15:04.483 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: We're never going to stop you gambling now. 15:05.189 --> 15:08.253 [JC (Ryo)]: I'm not that much of a gambler, though. 15:08.273 --> 15:09.615 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: Sorry, is it really gambling? 15:12.258 --> 15:14.061 [Lacer (Kai)]: I mean... That's a fair point. 15:15.383 --> 15:17.385 [JC (Ryo)]: I do like- I need to buy some cards. 15:17.485 --> 15:19.128 [JC (Ryo)]: I do miss my cards. 15:19.188 --> 15:20.229 [JC (Ryo)]: I like playing with cards. 15:20.730 --> 15:22.332 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: We're never gonna stop you thieving now. 15:24.555 --> 15:27.679 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Not that we could to begin with. 15:27.699 --> 15:32.445 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: I'm not a thief. 15:32.465 --> 15:33.787 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: A borrower, then. 15:33.847 --> 15:34.588 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: You're a borrower. 15:36.323 --> 15:38.165 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: You just haven't given anything back yet. 15:39.986 --> 15:41.628 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: I have bought everything I needed. 15:43.530 --> 15:45.191 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: And taken a few you didn't need. 15:46.112 --> 15:50.496 [JC (Ryo)]: I've been taken from those that...

17:26.404 --> 17:28.047 [Lacer (Kai)]: I finished making my potion. 17:29.569 --> 17:32.113 [Lacer (Kai)]: In the morning, what do we want to do? 17:32.514 --> 17:33.355 [Lacer (Kai)]: How do we want to proceed? 17:37.469 --> 17:41.133 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Well, we've got a few loose ends to tie up around here, I believe. 17:41.193 --> 17:44.437 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: There's something about a mine to the north, I believe it was. 17:46.980 --> 17:47.721 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Mission for the Griffins? 17:47.861 --> 17:49.403 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I honestly can't remember. 17:49.423 --> 17:50.304 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, something like that. 17:50.384 --> 17:57.872 [Lacer (Kai)]: That sort of ties into if we head to Val Noren, heading north that way might be a win-win, same direction. 17:58.813 --> 18:04.540 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Well, I've got a feeling we'd have to do the job and then come back to get paid because I can't see 18:06.241 --> 18:08.405 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Val Noren paying us for a work in Val Miriel. 18:09.767 --> 18:10.368 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yeah. 18:11.190 --> 18:16.800 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: But it probably wouldn't hurt just to tie up a few lists down here and just get a lay of the land. 18:17.742 --> 18:19.525 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, true, true. 18:19.545 --> 18:23.292 [Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, do we need to get anything in the morning before we head off?

21:31.319 --> 21:41.333 [Riv (DM)]: I think, um, Kai, you probably don't need to because you, your passive wisdom will see this anyway, but just for anyone else who wants to, feel, feel free to, um, 21:43.355 --> 21:46.358 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Oh, who's the... Wow. 21:47.620 --> 21:54.367 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: If I can find my stats... 21:54.387 --> 21:55.669 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: Apparently I've not woken up yet. 21:57.531 --> 22:02.416 [Riv (DM)]: Erindor's mind is reeling from the, um, from the revelation last night. 22:02.436 --> 22:07.702 [Lacer (Kai)]: I think you're still, yeah, you're still ecstatic that your, you know that your mum and dad are still alive. 22:08.323 --> 22:10.305 [Lacer (Kai)]: That's, that's amazing. 22:10.325 --> 22:10.425 Yeah. 22:11.047 --> 22:11.608 [Riv (DM)]: Alright, cool. 22:12.609 --> 22:22.463 [Riv (DM)]: So for the people, Kai, and the other people that rolled above like 12, you notice there are a few other patrons spread around now in the tavern. 22:22.664 --> 22:28.813 [Riv (DM)]: Some other early risers, looks like there might be a few regulars, some older chaps coming in who maybe always visit. 22:29.233 --> 22:34.000 [Riv (DM)]: But you do notice off to the side, and not like a dark corner, and they're not like 22:33.980 --> 22:41.006 [Riv (DM)]: Leaning together, whispering under their breath, but it kind of looks like they're just having a little conversation that they're hoping to kind of keep to themselves. 22:41.627 --> 22:42.848 [Riv (DM)]: And you hear a few snippets of it. 22:43.248 --> 22:48.173 [Riv (DM)]: You hear one of them just say like, Oh yeah, there's going to be another gathering today. 22:49.234 --> 22:51.076 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, the guy says, What do you mean?

23:02.870 --> 23:04.072 [Riv (DM)]: Nah, come on, come on, you should come. 23:04.432 --> 23:05.013 [Riv (DM)]: It'll be great. 23:05.714 --> 23:08.799 [Riv (DM)]: The people are really starting to get engaged and excited about it. 23:10.521 --> 23:19.955 [Riv (DM)]: And then it kind of trails off into stuff maybe a bit too quiet as they realise that people could hear them. 23:25.083 --> 23:25.423 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Ooh, exciting. 23:29.850 --> 23:30.531 [Lacer (Kai)]: Plaza. 23:34.308 --> 23:51.354 [Riv (DM)]: But with that, if you like, you can head out of the tavern or anything else you want to do. 23:52.396 --> 23:55.721 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Head into a trapper shop, aren't we? 23:55.881 --> 23:58.745 [Lacer (Kai)]: Actually, I'll go up and ask Lyla. 23:59.707 --> 24:01.750 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'll go, what's happening at the plaza today? 24:03.755 --> 24:05.598 [Riv (DM)]: Catch her in between serving some drinks. 24:05.938 --> 24:11.627 [Riv (DM)]: She looks around and smiles at you, recognizing now a familiar face that you've been staying for a while. 24:12.749 --> 24:14.231 [Riv (DM)]: She says, the plaza. 24:14.291 --> 24:15.172 [Riv (DM)]: Which plaza do you mean? 24:16.314 --> 24:16.975 [Riv (DM)]: You've got a bunch around. 24:19.038 --> 24:20.040 [Riv (DM)]: The main one? 24:20.180 --> 24:22.804 [Riv (DM)]: The big one? 24:23.245 --> 24:25.408 [Riv (DM)]: She laughs a little bit. 24:26.688 --> 24:30.196 [Riv (DM)]: Probably the main one that most people go to is called Serenity Plaza. 24:30.576 --> 24:31.779 [Riv (DM)]: It's just further up. 24:31.819 --> 24:36.970 [Riv (DM)]: It's near the Lena's Bridge itself, but I'm not sure if there's anything going on there. 24:36.990 --> 24:46.030 [Riv (DM)]: It's mostly been transformed into a marketplace these days, but often it's kind of treated as like the town square, you know, the announcements and 24:47.258 --> 24:55.452 [Riv (DM)]: Boxes to stand on so people can announce their passions and whatnot, but with the Empire these days, I guess things might have started to die down a bit. 24:56.593 --> 24:58.837 [Riv (DM)]: People being too afraid to speak out. 25:00.680 --> 25:02.042 [Lacer (Kai)]: Good to know. 25:02.163 --> 25:04.807 [Lacer (Kai)]: Which way again was the Serenity Plaza?

39:18.487 --> 39:20.829 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: I thought you said higher than a 10 or lower than a 10? 39:20.849 --> 39:21.990 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, higher or lower. 39:22.151 --> 39:22.471 [Riv (DM)]: I don't know. 39:22.491 --> 39:23.011 [Riv (DM)]: We'll go higher. 39:23.112 --> 39:23.392 [Riv (DM)]: Whatever. 39:23.552 --> 39:24.933 [Riv (DM)]: You get a deck of cards. 39:24.953 --> 39:26.635 [Riv (DM)]: Pay up one silver. 39:27.577 --> 39:28.579 [Riv (DM)]: Actually, silver's probably too much. 39:28.919 --> 39:29.761 [Riv (DM)]: Go like five copper. 39:33.207 --> 39:34.128 [Lacer (Kai)]: They're golden. 39:34.148 --> 39:36.392 [Lacer (Kai)]: They're gilded cards. 39:36.412 --> 39:39.117 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: How many coppers are in a silver?

40:09.661 --> 40:09.922 [Riv (DM)]: This. 40:10.823 --> 40:12.626 [Riv (DM)]: He does actually have. 40:15.309 --> 40:20.837 [Riv (DM)]: This was one of the ones that I had written down in his inventory. 40:21.398 --> 40:23.761 [Riv (DM)]: So, yeah. 40:23.902 --> 40:26.305 [Riv (DM)]: He can lead you over to the side. 40:27.550 --> 40:30.133 [Riv (DM)]: And point one out to you, let you play with it and it shows you. 40:30.153 --> 40:34.058 [Riv (DM)]: So it's like this little golden rod. 40:34.078 --> 40:40.186 [Riv (DM)]: It's probably about maybe half a foot, half a foot long, maybe slightly more than half a foot, six or seven inches. 40:41.047 --> 40:46.074 [Riv (DM)]: And at the top of it is a little button that you can click. 40:46.434 --> 40:48.397 [Riv (DM)]: And as soon as you click it, it just sits there. 40:48.417 --> 40:54.925 [Riv (DM)]: It's like you can no longer move it and you can even let go of it and it'll just stay floating in the air. 40:57.925 --> 41:02.192 [Riv (DM)]: You can do a one-armed pull-up. 41:04.275 --> 41:07.660 [Lacer (Kai)]: And a little pull. 41:08.181 --> 41:09.082 [Lacer (Kai)]: Looks expensive. 41:09.743 --> 41:10.525 [Lacer (Kai)]: Dare I ask? 41:12.167 --> 41:19.198 [Lacer (Kai)]: Before you do that, I cast, vocally, I cast command on the shopkeep and I ask, Discount? 41:21.461 --> 41:26.329 [Riv (DM)]: Sorry, what does that do? 41:27.018 --> 41:29.181 [Riv (DM)]: Oh, sorry, you're casting command. 41:30.623 --> 41:33.548 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yep, but because it's a vocal, I don't have to do any hands. 41:33.688 --> 41:36.652 [Lacer (Kai)]: I just yell out, discount as command. 41:38.555 --> 41:41.099 [Riv (DM)]: Okay. 41:41.239 --> 41:50.453 [Riv (DM)]: As you kind of call out the spell, the magic from your patron takes hold, your spell immediately fizzles and the guy's head snaps in your direction. 41:52.496 --> 41:54.038 [Riv (DM)]: What are you doing? 41:55.199 --> 41:58.343 [Riv (DM)]: And now he tenses up as he immediately countered your spell. 41:59.624 --> 42:01.366 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'm just projecting my voice. 42:01.686 --> 42:04.149 [Riv (DM)]: Any discounts? 42:04.470 --> 42:08.154 [Riv (DM)]: Don't try and play tricky with me, young lad. 42:08.374 --> 42:09.776 [Riv (DM)]: I've been in the business very long. 42:10.777 --> 42:17.004 [Riv (DM)]: If you want to buy items fair and square, then please, but any of that nonsense and you'll be out. 42:19.847 --> 42:20.768 [JC (Ryo)]: It's already mad anyway. 42:21.423 --> 42:22.304 [Riv (DM)]: I walk out. 42:22.404 --> 42:22.945 [Riv (DM)]: I walk out. 42:22.985 --> 42:23.786 [Riv (DM)]: You know what? 42:23.806 --> 42:24.407 [Riv (DM)]: I walk out. 42:24.427 --> 42:25.308 [Riv (DM)]: I walk out. 42:26.629 --> 42:27.510 [Riv (DM)]: He turns to the rest of you. 42:28.632 --> 42:29.293 [Riv (DM)]: Not good, guys. 42:30.634 --> 42:32.336 [Riv (DM)]: I'm starting to not like what I'm seeing here. 42:32.356 --> 42:34.979 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I apologize for that. 42:36.181 --> 42:40.967 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: You understand in certain adventuring companies, everyone's trying to get a bargain one way or another. 42:43.490 --> 42:43.870 [Riv (DM)]: Fair enough. 42:44.030 --> 42:45.072 [Riv (DM)]: Well, do you want this? 42:46.473 --> 42:47.495 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I am definitely interested. 42:47.515 --> 42:48.696 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: It's a handy tool to have. 42:51.629 --> 42:52.090 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Alright. 42:52.490 --> 42:53.191 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Let me have a look at that. 42:53.231 --> 42:55.874 [Riv (DM)]: That's a common magic item, right? 42:55.894 --> 42:56.916 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I think they are. 42:56.976 --> 42:57.617 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: It depends. 42:58.037 --> 43:00.140 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: And there's like sane and insane prices. 43:01.281 --> 43:07.569 [Riv (DM)]: Well, we've been going with just the prices from Dungeon Master's Guide, so I have common listed. 43:07.629 --> 43:13.036 [Riv (DM)]: He'll give it to you for 200 gold if you want it. 43:13.056 --> 43:13.296 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Done. 43:14.959 --> 43:18.463 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'll even give him 250 as an apology for my 43:19.793 --> 43:20.494 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Comrade. 43:21.075 --> 43:21.415 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Fair enough. 43:21.456 --> 43:22.337 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Comrade of rudeness. 43:23.479 --> 43:24.300 [Riv (DM)]: I appreciate that. 43:24.400 --> 43:27.024 [Riv (DM)]: Just, um, maybe next time you come and don't bring him. 43:28.146 --> 43:31.751 [Riv (DM)]: It's a bit early in the morning to be drawing on such magics, in my opinion. 43:31.971 --> 43:35.857 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, I'm sort of like, stretches his arms a bit, clicks his fingers. 43:36.779 --> 43:37.480 [Riv (DM)]: It's a bit of a shock. 43:40.604 --> 43:42.167 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Quite a good reaction time there. 43:42.547 --> 43:44.991 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: You've obviously done a little bit of work yourself. 43:45.477 --> 43:52.245 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, I've been around and trust me, you'd be surprised how often I get people coming in here thinking that I'm just a little shop owner. 43:52.766 --> 43:55.029 [Riv (DM)]: Surely he can just get rolled over. 43:55.049 --> 43:59.534 [Riv (DM)]: I practice, I protect my wares and where do you think all these magic items come from? 43:59.574 --> 44:02.718 [Riv (DM)]: Not just anyone can make such things. 44:04.440 --> 44:04.801 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Fair, fair. 44:07.084 --> 44:13.071 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Are you able to source rare and unusual items or is it just more of the... 44:13.861 --> 44:16.025 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Let's say more common, less common items. 44:17.287 --> 44:27.865 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, I mean, I've got a few things on hand at the moment, but it's, as I'm sure you're probably aware from your travels, magic items are hard to come by. 44:27.885 --> 44:35.378 [Riv (DM)]: I can, if there's anything specific you want, I can ask around my contacts and see maybe they would have them and get them ordered over. 44:35.418 --> 44:38.383 [Riv (DM)]: It really just comes down to what you're looking for. 44:39.173 --> 44:40.655 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yep, that's fair, fair. 44:41.917 --> 44:45.342 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: We're probably not in town for long, but we will be doing a bit of operating in the area. 44:45.362 --> 44:46.384 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I just thought I'd keep an eye out. 44:47.385 --> 44:47.506 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yep. 44:47.526 --> 44:47.786 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: There you go. 44:48.507 --> 44:50.149 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Obviously anything to get the edge. 44:54.075 --> 44:54.156 Yep. 44:54.176 --> 44:56.619 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: Do you have any magic rings? 44:58.602 --> 44:59.383 [Riv (DM)]: Magic rings? 45:00.124 --> 45:02.047 [Riv (DM)]: I've got a few. 45:03.730 --> 45:04.491 [Riv (DM)]: Probably nothing... 45:05.473 --> 45:07.155 [Riv (DM)]: I mean, I've got a bunch that are probably not... 45:07.878 --> 45:11.488 [Riv (DM)]: Particularly interesting to you, just little trinkets and silly little toys. 45:12.431 --> 45:13.915 [Riv (DM)]: But I do have one here. 45:14.115 --> 45:14.757 [Riv (DM)]: I'll be right back. 45:15.018 --> 45:19.049 [Riv (DM)]: Heads back, behind again to the place where probably more valuable things are. 45:19.530 --> 45:20.453 [Riv (DM)]: Comes to the front. 45:20.753 --> 45:21.294 [Riv (DM)]: Little box. 45:22.035 --> 45:22.556 [Riv (DM)]: Pops it open. 45:22.756 --> 45:25.760 [Riv (DM)]: Very, very nice looking sort of silver platinum ring. 45:27.202 --> 45:28.524 [Riv (DM)]: This is a pretty little thing. 45:29.686 --> 45:32.890 [Riv (DM)]: Check this on and it will make you more dexterous. 45:33.070 --> 45:37.317 [Riv (DM)]: It'll make you be able to be more resistant to certain elemental effects. 45:38.618 --> 45:39.399 [Riv (DM)]: Very, very nice. 45:41.102 --> 45:41.763 [Riv (DM)]: Bit pricey though. 45:44.667 --> 45:45.208 [Riv (DM)]: How pricey? 45:48.112 --> 45:48.192 [Riv (DM)]: Hmm. 45:48.212 --> 45:50.355 [Riv (DM)]: Eyes you up a bit. 45:51.196 --> 45:54.280 [Riv (DM)]: Eh, probably a few thousand gold. 45:56.262 --> 45:58.284 [Riv (DM)]: Just a touch out of my price point, eh? 45:58.965 --> 46:02.329 [Riv (DM)]: I had a feeling, but if you like, I could hold onto it. 46:03.531 --> 46:04.131 [Riv (DM)]: Put your name on it. 46:05.453 --> 46:06.234 [Riv (DM)]: Maybe come back for it. 46:09.438 --> 46:10.459 [JC (Ryo)]: How many are we talking? 46:11.400 --> 46:12.141 [Riv (DM)]: Oh, I've just got the one. 46:12.161 --> 46:13.523 [Riv (DM)]: These are very, very rare. 46:14.244 --> 46:15.105 [JC (Ryo)]: No, no, price. 46:16.146 --> 46:17.187 [JC (Ryo)]: How many thousand gold? 46:17.386 --> 46:20.991 [Riv (DM)]: I couldn't part with it for any less than about $6,000. 46:33.169 --> 46:37.335 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: Look, I wouldn't stop you getting the coin if someone else pays for it. 46:42.310 --> 46:42.931 [Riv (DM)]: Fair enough. 46:43.953 --> 46:46.797 [Riv (DM)]: Well, I mean, as you can imagine, such a price point. 46:47.679 --> 46:50.263 [Riv (DM)]: Not many people are going to be coming around for such a thing. 46:50.343 --> 46:54.910 [Riv (DM)]: I was very lucky myself to actually come across it, but yeah, it is what it is. 46:58.095 --> 46:59.678 [Riv (DM)]: Where did you come across it? 47:00.316 --> 47:05.282 [Riv (DM)]: Oh, it's just, you know, I have a group of, I've got a group of friends and connections from all across the continent. 47:05.582 --> 47:16.654 [Riv (DM)]: We keep in contact and often trade items or, you know, if someone has been adventuring and exploring ancient ruins from the old world, they bring back trinkets. 47:16.835 --> 47:21.019 [Riv (DM)]: This one, I believe, was found up in the ruins north of Val Aran. 47:22.581 --> 47:23.302 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, that's right. 47:23.722 --> 47:27.066 [Riv (DM)]: And my friend brought it over and I exchanged something. 47:31.315 --> 47:37.543 [Riv (DM)]: Most of the magic items these days, these powerful ones at least, yeah, found in the ruins. 47:38.043 --> 47:44.451 [Riv (DM)]: The people of old had powerful magics that we can kind of barely comprehend these days. 47:51.961 --> 47:54.664 [JC (Ryo)]: Erindor, how much you got? 47:54.884 --> 47:57.588 [JC (Ryo)]: How much do you want to spend on this thing? 47:57.608 --> 47:59.550 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: Ah, nah nah, it's all good for now. 48:03.496 --> 48:04.036 [Riv (DM)]: Well, all good. 48:04.217 --> 48:06.338 [Riv (DM)]: I'm sure it'll be here if you ever wanted to come back. 48:06.359 --> 48:10.582 [Riv (DM)]: Um, just for reference, metagaming, it is a, it's a ring of protection. 48:10.722 --> 48:11.503 [Riv (DM)]: I'm sure you might have gathered. 48:12.224 --> 48:14.185 [Riv (DM)]: Plus one to AC and saving throws. 48:16.327 --> 48:20.010 [JC (Ryo)]: Yep. 48:20.031 --> 48:21.912 [JC (Ryo)]: Oh, so it's not plus one to dex, okay. 48:21.932 --> 48:22.353 [Riv (DM)]: No, no. 48:23.033 --> 48:28.378 [Riv (DM)]: I was saying it makes you more dexterous because a ring isn't gonna make you, like, physically more strong. 48:28.438 --> 48:30.980 [Riv (DM)]: It's like, you know, lets you dodge things or something. 48:31.000 --> 48:32.001 [Riv (DM)]: At least that's how I imagine it. 48:34.681 --> 48:44.813 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Any items that add to your ability mods are usually legendary and incredibly expensive if you can even get them. 48:44.833 --> 48:44.973 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah. 48:46.415 --> 48:47.956 [Riv (DM)]: Pretty busted. 48:47.976 --> 48:51.240 [Riv (DM)]: That's the Belt of Giant Strength that most people get in the later levels. 48:52.161 --> 49:03.034 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: The other one is the Manual of Quickness of Action, which is like, it gives you plus two to your dex permanently, but it can only be used once a century. 49:05.984 --> 49:06.705 [Unmatched Speaker]: Oh, wow. 49:07.045 --> 49:07.306 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah. 49:08.147 --> 49:09.689 [Riv (DM)]: Very cool. 49:09.709 --> 49:14.555 [Riv (DM)]: It's like ancient, ancient lore item sort of thing. 49:14.575 --> 49:14.675 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah. 49:14.695 --> 49:14.916 [Riv (DM)]: Cool. 49:14.956 --> 49:26.350 [Riv (DM)]: Well, I guess while the rest of you guys are pottering around inside and having a bit of back and forth, Kai, you step out onto the street, take a deep breath, and just kind of ponder. 49:26.370 --> 49:34.641 [Riv (DM)]: And as you're taking a moment, you hear a voice over your right shoulder that says, 49:34.621 --> 49:35.422 [Riv (DM)]: I enjoyed that. 49:35.782 --> 49:36.222 [Riv (DM)]: Very good. 49:40.787 --> 49:42.228 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'll turn over my shoulder. 49:42.248 --> 49:42.728 [Lacer (Kai)]: Did I see anyone? 49:43.149 --> 49:46.552 [Lacer (Kai)]: Nope. 49:46.572 --> 49:47.593 [Lacer (Kai)]: It's you. 49:49.234 --> 49:50.335 [Lacer (Kai)]: Always watching that. 49:53.278 --> 49:55.440 [Riv (DM)]: Alright. 49:56.581 --> 49:57.382 [Riv (DM)]: Everyone else happy? 49:57.502 --> 49:58.763 [Riv (DM)]: Finished with the shot? 50:00.444 --> 50:02.787 [Unmatched Speaker]: Mhm. 50:02.807 --> 50:03.227 [Riv (DM)]: Awesome. 50:04.186 --> 50:06.931 [JC (Ryo)]: Do you have anything archery related? 50:09.675 --> 50:11.559 [JC (Ryo)]: Quiver, arrows, anything like that? 50:14.283 --> 50:16.968 [Riv (DM)]: I don't think so. 50:17.148 --> 50:20.254 [Riv (DM)]: Not so many weapons here, I'm afraid. 50:23.379 --> 50:28.708 [Riv (DM)]: But like I said, if there's anything specific you were wanting to help for, I can try and put some words out. 50:32.266 --> 50:34.028 [JC (Ryo)]: Just something to put my arrows. 50:34.248 --> 50:36.211 [JC (Ryo)]: I need a quiver, I guess. 50:37.733 --> 50:38.313 [Riv (DM)]: Ah, a quiver. 50:38.574 --> 50:39.074 [Riv (DM)]: That's interesting. 50:39.314 --> 50:47.424 [Riv (DM)]: I do seem to recall, actually, one of my friends found a quiver that you never needed to actually draw the arrow from. 50:47.825 --> 50:52.871 [Riv (DM)]: You could just pull back from the arrow string and the arrow would appear immediately in the string itself. 50:54.072 --> 50:54.813 [Riv (DM)]: Probably very handy. 50:55.194 --> 50:58.037 [Riv (DM)]: I think, I don't recall who had that. 50:58.743 --> 51:02.488 [Riv (DM)]: But if you like the sound of that, I can put out some words and see if I can get it brought over for you. 51:05.792 --> 51:07.454 [JC (Ryo)]: Is he in this town? 51:07.474 --> 51:08.115 [JC (Ryo)]: I don't think so. 51:11.419 --> 51:19.790 [JC (Ryo)]: Well, we've got some travelling to do, so maybe find out if you can pass on where it is, and then if we're going that way, otherwise maybe I can have you get it here. 51:20.471 --> 51:21.072 [Riv (DM)]: Alright, well... 51:22.148 --> 51:26.815 [Riv (DM)]: Let me just go and see if I can trace down exactly where I heard it. 51:27.957 --> 51:28.658 [Riv (DM)]: Go and find some notes. 51:29.760 --> 51:33.526 [Riv (DM)]: It was at Val Aerie, I believe. 51:37.732 --> 51:43.882 [Riv (DM)]: Look for the magician there. 51:44.563 --> 51:45.885 [Riv (DM)]: Name is Aiden. 51:45.905 --> 51:50.552 [Riv (DM)]: He runs a store, I believe, last I spoke to him. 52:04.994 --> 52:05.635 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Alright. 52:06.978 --> 52:15.435 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: If we come across any interesting items near our travels, are you in the acquisitions business as well, or are you mostly just selling? 52:16.757 --> 52:23.391 [Riv (DM)]: It depends on the item of course, but yeah, I'm always interested to either trade or potentially purchase, depending on the value. 52:25.495 --> 52:26.597 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: We'll keep an eye out. 52:27.033 --> 52:32.098 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: So we'll be holding anything super useful for ourselves, but there's always a little bit left over. 52:33.059 --> 52:33.600 [Riv (DM)]: Excellent, yeah. 52:33.800 --> 52:50.917 [Riv (DM)]: No, of course, I mean, my business is basically driven for at least some of the higher items, driven by adventures like yourselves, going and exploring the old ruins, so please do, keep your eye out. 52:50.937 --> 52:53.720 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: You heard anything that's going on in the city? 52:55.441 --> 52:56.162 [Riv (DM)]: All sorts. 52:56.716 --> 52:59.019 [Riv (DM)]: People are frustrated. 52:59.619 --> 53:01.902 [Riv (DM)]: People are excited. 53:01.922 --> 53:11.433 [Riv (DM)]: The Empire is cracking down as always and cutting people who, you know, cutting down the voices of the people that are speaking out. 53:12.174 --> 53:12.935 [Riv (DM)]: What else is going on? 53:12.975 --> 53:13.275 [Riv (DM)]: Gosh. 53:14.557 --> 53:16.619 [Riv (DM)]: The governor has hardly been seen much. 53:16.659 --> 53:18.221 [Riv (DM)]: He's been reclusive. 53:20.964 --> 53:22.766 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah. 53:22.786 --> 53:24.208 [Riv (DM)]: Anything specific or? 53:25.437 --> 53:26.198 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: What about the governor? 53:26.518 --> 53:27.259 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: What do you know of him? 53:27.780 --> 53:28.841 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: What kind of a man is he? 53:30.743 --> 53:32.044 [Riv (DM)]: A lot of the people in the city like him. 53:32.305 --> 53:38.632 [Riv (DM)]: He's very, well these days at least, he seems very stoic and serious. 53:40.714 --> 53:44.478 [Riv (DM)]: It was only a few years ago that he was in much better spirits, it seems. 53:44.498 --> 53:52.727 [Riv (DM)]: I'm not sure exactly what happened, whether there was more pressure from the Empire or some tragedy in the family, but I'd say 53:53.247 --> 53:54.791 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, maybe three or four years ago. 53:56.495 --> 53:57.457 [Riv (DM)]: Just became a lot more cold. 53:58.319 --> 54:02.509 [Riv (DM)]: Stopped addressing the people so often and kept himself more. 54:03.732 --> 54:07.460 [Riv (DM)]: But from what I can tell, he's always been a very fair man, very generous to the citizens. 54:08.282 --> 54:11.610 [Riv (DM)]: Hence the strong support that he still has, even though he has 54:13.126 --> 54:21.456 [Riv (DM)]: Well, I guess what it seems to be just a figurehead for the Empire here, right? 54:21.476 --> 54:22.538 [Riv (DM)]: I'm sure it must be frustrating. 54:22.798 --> 54:24.420 [Riv (DM)]: He comes from a line of royalty. 54:24.981 --> 54:28.185 [Riv (DM)]: The original settlers and rulers of the city. 54:28.205 --> 54:34.613 [Riv (DM)]: Now to be dictated to by people who come from different cities altogether. 54:35.314 --> 54:35.954 [Riv (DM)]: Must be frustrating. 54:38.598 --> 54:38.978 [Riv (DM)]: Indeed. 54:40.840 --> 54:41.361 [Unmatched Speaker]: Thank you. 54:45.425 --> 54:51.532 [Riv (DM)]: Alright, well, unless there's anything else I really should get back to the points to the notes on this table. 54:52.013 --> 55:00.724 [Riv (DM)]: Trying to figure out the reason for why, I don't know, certain stars disappear in the middle of the night. 55:08.072 --> 55:08.293 [Riv (DM)]: Cool. 55:09.534 --> 55:12.698 [Riv (DM)]: Alrighty, you can head out of the store. 55:15.614 --> 55:17.376 [Riv (DM)]: All good. 55:17.396 --> 55:18.698 [Riv (DM)]: Cool. 55:18.718 --> 55:19.699 [Riv (DM)]: Where to next, team? 55:23.823 --> 55:31.032 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Dondar mentions to Rio, you can have the cards if you can get them from me without me seeing. 55:36.718 --> 55:37.099 [JC (Ryo)]: Okay. 55:39.882 --> 55:40.963 [JC (Ryo)]: Can I walk back inside the shop? 55:41.872 --> 55:48.378 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: I would like to... just... have a general idea as to where the cards have been kept. 55:52.201 --> 55:53.883 [Riv (DM)]: As in like, where Dondar is keeping them? 55:53.903 --> 55:55.184 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: Yep, where Dondar is keeping them. 55:55.785 --> 55:57.086 [Riv (DM)]: Roll a perception, it would have to be a real good one. 55:57.446 --> 55:58.187 [Riv (DM)]: Unless you... 55:58.207 --> 56:00.429 [Riv (DM)]: I guess you could have been watching him when he first bought them. 56:05.594 --> 56:06.475 [Riv (DM)]: Probably, yeah. 56:06.515 --> 56:10.258 [Riv (DM)]: I think Dondar would have had his back to you or something, so you're not completely sure. 56:13.276 --> 56:14.458 [JC (Ryo)]: Can I walk back inside the shop? 56:14.618 --> 56:17.423 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, man. 56:17.443 --> 56:22.311 [Riv (DM)]: As you come in, you have to duck for a second as one of these levitating objects goes flying through the doorway. 56:22.932 --> 56:23.473 [Riv (DM)]: He looks up again. 56:23.493 --> 56:24.295 [Riv (DM)]: Oh, sorry about that. 56:25.757 --> 56:26.999 [JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, it's okay. 56:30.665 --> 56:32.248 [JC (Ryo)]: Sorry, just one last thing. 56:32.288 --> 56:35.333 [JC (Ryo)]: You sold my dwarf friend a deck of cards. 56:35.373 --> 56:36.415 [JC (Ryo)]: You got any more of those? 56:37.424 --> 56:42.631 [Riv (DM)]: Uh, yeah sure, there's stacks of them back here. 56:42.651 --> 56:45.114 [Riv (DM)]: Just like, chucks one to you. 56:45.595 --> 56:46.356 [JC (Ryo)]: Can I buy five? 56:46.536 --> 56:47.197 [JC (Ryo)]: Can I buy five? 56:47.838 --> 56:50.041 [Riv (DM)]: Sure, just give me like, two silver. 56:51.903 --> 56:52.884 [Riv (DM)]: Done. 56:59.894 --> 57:00.494 [Riv (DM)]: Alright. 57:00.535 --> 57:01.776 [JC (Ryo)]: I'll walk out, I'll walk out. 57:01.916 --> 57:03.659 [JC (Ryo)]: Thank you, thank you, I'll walk outside. 57:04.560 --> 57:04.680 [Riv (DM)]: Great. 57:06.635 --> 57:12.242 [JC (Ryo)]: I'll just give everyone a deck of cards except Dondar. 57:12.262 --> 57:12.542 [JC (Ryo)]: Amazing. 57:12.562 --> 57:16.807 [JC (Ryo)]: And then hold my two decks of cards up and go, um, yeah, sure, whatever. 57:19.090 --> 57:20.812 [JC (Ryo)]: I'll just start walking off towards the Grey Griffin. 57:22.034 --> 57:22.594 [Riv (DM)]: And off you go. 57:23.836 --> 57:26.179 [Riv (DM)]: It's funny, I am holding a deck of cards right now in real life. 57:29.102 --> 57:29.443 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: It's funny. 57:31.065 --> 57:31.666 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Dondar grins. 57:33.287 --> 57:34.549 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: We made him pay for something. 57:36.588 --> 57:37.369 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: That was the plan. 57:37.429 --> 57:41.075 [Riv (DM)]: That's funny. 57:44.060 --> 57:44.902 [Riv (DM)]: Cool. 57:44.922 --> 57:45.783 [Riv (DM)]: Alrighty. 57:47.286 --> 57:49.730 [Riv (DM)]: So we had trappers or green griffin? 57:49.810 --> 57:50.291 [Riv (DM)]: Where are we going? 57:53.216 --> 57:55.499 [Lacer (Kai)]: Looks like we're headed to green griffin. 57:55.519 --> 57:56.000 [Lacer (Kai)]: Looks like. 57:56.301 --> 58:01.249 [Lacer (Kai)]: Since Ryo's already started walking off. 58:01.269 --> 58:01.870 [Riv (DM)]: He's gone. 58:02.795 --> 58:03.216 [Riv (DM)]: Alrighty. 58:04.297 --> 58:04.818 [Riv (DM)]: Cool, cool, cool. 58:04.878 --> 58:13.248 [Riv (DM)]: So, across the city, um, starting to wake up now, people coming out of the shops, starting to open up the doors and stuff like that. 58:13.488 --> 58:17.994 [Riv (DM)]: We can even, we can even chuck on a bit of, a bit of city music. 58:18.434 --> 58:24.262 [Riv (DM)]: Um, across the Great Bridge, um, the water itself is quite, quite clear this morning. 58:24.983 --> 58:26.084 [Riv (DM)]: Sun's sparkling. 58:26.344 --> 58:32.532 [Riv (DM)]: And over to the other side of the city where you find the Green Griffin up on the Military Way, um, 58:35.853 --> 58:37.642 [Riv (DM)]: Would you like to Hinsight, I assume? 58:37.662 --> 58:40.416 [JC (Ryo)]: I don't know. 58:41.380 --> 58:42.807 [JC (Ryo)]: Rio's like run off already. 58:42.848 --> 58:43.551 [Riv (DM)]: What's Rio down? 58:44.527 --> 58:47.751 [JC (Ryo)]: Yeah, I'm just gonna go inside, wait for these guys. 58:48.352 --> 58:48.573 [Riv (DM)]: Cool. 58:49.013 --> 58:54.761 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, as you head in, you recognize Porter, Porter Hale, from the last time that you were here. 58:55.042 --> 58:58.366 [Riv (DM)]: Big dude, thick beard, grey hair. 59:00.048 --> 59:03.974 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, I mean he just nods to you as you come in, but he doesn't turn away from what he's doing. 59:04.875 --> 59:07.699 [Riv (DM)]: You wait for the rest of the group, they come in with you, and you're inside. 59:14.986 --> 59:15.669 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: How do you put it? 59:16.452 --> 59:22.096 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: You had to go on organising a meetup with the runner of that mine job. 59:23.261 --> 59:25.249 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Ah yes, of course. 59:25.533 --> 59:27.637 [Riv (DM)]: Yep, well, let me give you the details. 59:29.600 --> 59:32.606 [Riv (DM)]: Gets up from the table, finds a note. 59:33.728 --> 59:35.531 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, this looks like the one, here you go. 59:36.072 --> 59:39.138 [Riv (DM)]: It just lists out like an address, the name of the guy. 59:39.158 --> 59:45.088 [Riv (DM)]: He is expecting you, so probably go and see him sometime before the afternoon, I'd imagine. 59:45.509 --> 59:49.937 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, they should cover it, I think. 59:54.220 --> 59:55.602 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: We've obviously been here for a while. 59:55.762 --> 59:59.168 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Does anything about the job seem a little... fishy? 01:00:00.250 --> 01:00:00.810 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Scratches his beard. 01:00:01.992 --> 01:00:04.877 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I mean, you said there's a few groups that have gone up and disappeared. 01:00:04.917 --> 01:00:09.645 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: That's usually an indication that there's more going on than just a simple goblin problem. 01:00:10.526 --> 01:00:10.947 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Exactly. 01:00:11.948 --> 01:00:14.372 [Riv (DM)]: Definitely would suggest caution. 01:00:15.061 --> 01:00:17.604 [Riv (DM)]: I believe... yeah, this is where things start getting a bit tricky. 01:00:18.205 --> 01:00:20.929 [Riv (DM)]: I believe the Empire themselves sent a party. 01:00:21.249 --> 01:00:24.073 [Riv (DM)]: Obviously, it's... they probably invested in the mine themselves. 01:00:24.754 --> 01:00:30.421 [Riv (DM)]: But if the Imperial soldiers themselves didn't come back, then... probably dangerous. 01:00:30.802 --> 01:00:34.967 [Riv (DM)]: And even more suspiciously, why have they come to us now? 01:00:36.389 --> 01:00:38.031 [Riv (DM)]: But, I guess... 01:00:38.011 --> 01:00:46.365 [Riv (DM)]: Maybe they just don't want to, maybe they don't have the people, maybe they don't have the soldiers left, maybe they just don't want to risk their own men anymore, and that's why they are turning to you guys, but hey, that's what we get paid for, right? 01:00:47.487 --> 01:00:50.292 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Well, that and the fact that we're just playing better than the soldiers. 01:00:50.953 --> 01:00:51.774 [Riv (DM)]: Ah, of course, of course. 01:00:57.664 --> 01:01:02.753 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: So, is this an Empire contact that's doing the job, or are we doing it for a private at this stage? 01:01:05.855 --> 01:01:06.977 [Riv (DM)]: That is a tricky question. 01:01:07.498 --> 01:01:14.911 [Riv (DM)]: As far as I'm concerned, and I will stick to this story, this is not an Empire sequestered job. 01:01:15.873 --> 01:01:17.736 [Riv (DM)]: I would probably turn such thing away, personally. 01:01:18.417 --> 01:01:19.920 [Riv (DM)]: Unless they really put their boots down on us. 01:01:20.381 --> 01:01:26.752 [Riv (DM)]: No, we're working directly with NORAC, and that's what our books will show. 01:01:27.814 --> 01:01:28.335 [Riv (DM)]: But... 01:01:30.205 --> 01:01:40.795 [Riv (DM)]: I would be lying if I said that I wasn't slightly suspicious that, well I wouldn't say suspicious but kind of expectant that he has ties to the Empire itself. 01:01:41.595 --> 01:01:45.038 [Riv (DM)]: I mean, private citizen owning a goldmine in this environment? 01:01:45.599 --> 01:01:46.159 [Riv (DM)]: Very unlikely. 01:01:47.040 --> 01:01:47.421 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Good call. 01:01:48.762 --> 01:01:55.448 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: And one who has the resources for goldmine but not enough resources to pull in a large party. 01:01:55.888 --> 01:01:57.750 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Mmm. 01:01:57.770 --> 01:01:57.850 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Mmm. 01:01:58.927 --> 01:02:02.170 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Smells like expendable to me, but we'll see what we can do. 01:02:05.173 --> 01:02:07.716 [Riv (DM)]: You know what you're getting yourselves into. 01:02:08.477 --> 01:02:11.620 [Riv (DM)]: This is why we are the reputation that we have. 01:02:11.720 --> 01:02:13.782 [Riv (DM)]: We have the best working for us. 01:02:14.623 --> 01:02:16.645 [Riv (DM)]: But just be careful. 01:02:16.905 --> 01:02:18.927 [Riv (DM)]: Don't go into a suicide mission unprepared. 01:02:19.868 --> 01:02:21.109 [Riv (DM)]: Here, come over here. 01:02:21.650 --> 01:02:26.655 [Riv (DM)]: He sort of gestures to take you into a more secluded area of the building. 01:02:30.466 --> 01:02:31.948 [Riv (DM)]: Alright, this is gonna sound like a weird question. 01:02:33.289 --> 01:02:35.651 [Riv (DM)]: Your feelings about the Empire itself? 01:02:39.896 --> 01:02:40.997 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Uh, we've had our differences. 01:02:41.037 --> 01:02:43.259 [Riv (DM)]: Okay. 01:02:43.279 --> 01:02:44.220 [Riv (DM)]: I'll read between those lines. 01:02:46.502 --> 01:02:48.684 [Riv (DM)]: One of the things that I found interesting about this particular job... 01:02:50.466 --> 01:02:53.770 [Riv (DM)]: Potentially got a bit of a... opportunity? 01:02:53.790 --> 01:02:55.511 [Riv (DM)]: I might say? 01:02:58.174 --> 01:02:59.055 [Riv (DM)]: Can I just look at you? 01:03:00.757 --> 01:03:02.138 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Hmm. 01:03:02.158 --> 01:03:06.662 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: You're saying there's shipments that are unaccounted for? 01:03:06.702 --> 01:03:11.366 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Sure someone will be interested in recovering? 01:03:11.387 --> 01:03:14.269 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Or are we talking more of a permanent solution? 01:03:15.871 --> 01:03:16.411 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Either or. 01:03:16.471 --> 01:03:22.837 [Riv (DM)]: I mean, let's just say, you know, I'm sure we've all heard. 01:03:24.058 --> 01:03:24.819 [Riv (DM)]: We've heard the talk. 01:03:24.919 --> 01:03:28.722 [Riv (DM)]: We've heard the talk of the town. 01:03:29.242 --> 01:03:40.354 [Riv (DM)]: An endless supply of wealth would be quite a boon for, let's say, certain factions that might be so inclined to not align with the Empire. 01:03:40.394 --> 01:03:46.200 [Riv (DM)]: I'm just throwing it out there. 01:03:46.421 --> 01:03:58.033 [Riv (DM)]: If you do see an opportunity to try and play this in a way that could leave us advantaged and the Empire disadvantaged, we could have a bit of a win here. 01:04:00.545 --> 01:04:02.849 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Well, we'll definitely keep our eyes out. 01:04:03.970 --> 01:04:12.003 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: There are obviously all sorts of complications with offloading and maintaining something like that, but who knows. 01:04:13.665 --> 01:04:16.409 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: For all we know, we could get out there and it's full of fucking balrogs. 01:04:18.432 --> 01:04:22.939 [Riv (DM)]: Oh god, we can hope not. 01:04:22.959 --> 01:04:23.700 [Riv (DM)]: Balrogs. 01:04:25.684 --> 01:04:29.269 [Riv (DM)]: Well anyway, best of luck to you. 01:04:30.515 --> 01:04:31.357 [Riv (DM)]: I'm sure you'll be fine. 01:04:33.222 --> 01:04:35.347 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Just a question on the side. 01:04:35.548 --> 01:04:40.761 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Is this a thought line that's common in the Griffins or is it a bit more isolated? 01:04:42.445 --> 01:04:46.971 [Riv (DM)]: Look, we are officially neutral. 01:04:47.551 --> 01:04:48.933 [Riv (DM)]: We just, we're here to make money. 01:04:49.253 --> 01:04:57.944 [Riv (DM)]: We help the land by ridding it of monsters and citizens that can go nowhere else to get their problems solved. 01:04:57.964 --> 01:04:58.505 [Riv (DM)]: That's what we do. 01:04:59.426 --> 01:05:04.572 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: But... Be those monsters beasts or men? 01:05:07.133 --> 01:05:12.620 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: That's not surprising, a group of independent contractors are naturally going to have a rather independent mindset. 01:05:13.962 --> 01:05:17.406 [Riv (DM)]: The Empire has certainly made things more difficult, especially over the last few years. 01:05:19.749 --> 01:05:32.466 [Riv (DM)]: I would say, I can't speak for the rest of the guilds, but I imagine none of them are particularly impressed with this current state of things and 01:05:34.555 --> 01:05:41.364 [Riv (DM)]: More or less would be willing to try and, should we say, bend the wind in a different direction? 01:05:43.467 --> 01:05:47.773 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Well, between you and me the wind is currently blowing. 01:05:47.813 --> 01:05:50.117 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Seemed like it. 01:05:55.344 --> 01:05:57.627 [Riv (DM)]: Maybe it's just a matter of trying to direct that wind. 01:06:01.133 --> 01:06:04.298 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Or getting your sails set and riding it when it comes. 01:06:06.501 --> 01:06:06.862 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Indeed. 01:06:06.882 --> 01:06:11.929 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'll give him a little nod. 01:06:14.233 --> 01:06:19.581 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Grab the details of our totally not pious fire contact. 01:06:23.387 --> 01:06:23.527 [Riv (DM)]: Cool. 01:06:23.767 --> 01:06:23.948 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah. 01:06:24.248 --> 01:06:29.436 [Riv (DM)]: It just directs to an address on the Royal Way. 01:06:31.357 --> 01:06:32.239 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Vaelway. 01:06:32.299 --> 01:06:34.022 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Not suspicious at all. 01:06:36.688 --> 01:06:38.111 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yeah, I mean, he owns a gold mine. 01:06:38.151 --> 01:06:46.127 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: He's obviously doing pretty well for himself. 01:06:47.429 --> 01:06:51.357 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Is it on the way to Trappers, or are Trappers on the way to it? 01:06:53.682 --> 01:06:55.845 [Riv (DM)]: Not really, no. 01:06:56.486 --> 01:07:01.111 [Riv (DM)]: So trappers stay on the current way that you're on. 01:07:01.232 --> 01:07:03.935 [Riv (DM)]: Just head down towards the docks and it'll be down that way. 01:07:05.337 --> 01:07:08.401 [Riv (DM)]: The royal way is back the way you came. 01:07:08.982 --> 01:07:14.068 [Riv (DM)]: But hey, we can hand wave it so we can just say you are there if you want to go to one or the other. 01:07:14.489 --> 01:07:15.670 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Are we still walking around? 01:07:15.690 --> 01:07:17.192 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Is that where we are? 01:07:17.172 --> 01:07:19.094 [Riv (DM)]: You're currently in the Green Gryphon Guild. 01:07:19.114 --> 01:07:20.195 [Riv (DM)]: We're in the Green Gryphon. 01:07:22.037 --> 01:07:28.524 [Riv (DM)]: And it's starting to, yeah, getting probably, I don't know, close-ish to midday, maybe 10 or 11-ish. 01:07:33.288 --> 01:07:39.755 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: During the hand wave of travel, can Dondar do another perception check for anyone following us? 01:07:40.916 --> 01:07:44.440 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Yeah, sure, go for it. 01:07:44.460 --> 01:07:46.622 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Following or noticing us more than usual? 01:07:48.779 --> 01:07:49.861 [Lacer (Kai)]: Oh, my luck is gone. 01:07:50.442 --> 01:07:53.326 [Lacer (Kai)]: Do I notice Dondar looking around a bit too much lately? 01:07:55.730 --> 01:07:56.211 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, sure. 01:07:56.271 --> 01:07:56.651 [Lacer (Kai)]: Why not? 01:07:56.952 --> 01:07:57.292 [Riv (DM)]: Why not? 01:07:57.353 --> 01:07:58.715 [Lacer (Kai)]: Roll a perception check. 01:07:58.935 --> 01:08:01.840 [Lacer (Kai)]: I just want to see if Dondar's like being hyper paranoid. 01:08:01.860 --> 01:08:02.961 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'm not doing it. 01:08:03.041 --> 01:08:05.846 [Riv (DM)]: Insight or perception check, whichever you feel like. 01:08:06.667 --> 01:08:07.629 [Riv (DM)]: Let's go with insight. 01:08:07.729 --> 01:08:08.911 [Riv (DM)]: Go for it. 01:08:08.931 --> 01:08:13.538 [Riv (DM)]: It's got to be a good roll because, you know, looking around at the city isn't bad. 01:08:16.100 --> 01:08:17.021 [Riv (DM)]: Cool. 01:08:17.041 --> 01:08:17.322 [Riv (DM)]: Oh boy. 01:08:17.842 --> 01:08:24.110 [Riv (DM)]: I would say that you did notice Dondar kind of specifically looking around, looking around over his shoulder. 01:08:24.130 --> 01:08:29.036 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Dondar, notice! 01:08:30.418 --> 01:08:33.562 [Riv (DM)]: Did Dondar notice me like that? 01:08:33.582 --> 01:08:34.823 [Lacer (Kai)]: Oh my god. 01:08:34.843 --> 01:08:37.306 [Lacer (Kai)]: No, because... No, I'm joking, I'm joking. 01:08:37.326 --> 01:08:41.472 [Lacer (Kai)]: Nah, I put my hand on Dondar's shoulder and go, what's gotten you riled up, Dondar? 01:08:41.612 --> 01:08:43.474 [Lacer (Kai)]: You seem quite paranoid lately. 01:08:46.829 --> 01:08:48.631 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Those people at the tavern. 01:08:50.693 --> 01:08:56.760 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: It seemed too convenient to be talking so excitedly about something happening tonight. 01:08:57.521 --> 01:08:58.803 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: It sounds like it would involve us. 01:09:00.525 --> 01:09:02.807 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: I'm paranoid. 01:09:03.288 --> 01:09:04.009 [Lacer (Kai)]: Us in what way? 01:09:04.029 --> 01:09:04.850 [Lacer (Kai)]: We haven't done anything. 01:09:06.351 --> 01:09:06.712 [Lacer (Kai)]: Not yet. 01:09:09.135 --> 01:09:15.121 [Lacer (Kai)]: With Dondar reminding me about the tavern people, I do a perception check. 01:09:16.423 --> 01:09:16.583 [Lacer (Kai)]: Alright. 01:09:20.393 --> 01:09:25.038 [Riv (DM)]: Um...

01:27:23.040 --> 01:27:25.043 [JC (Ryo)]: Does anyone... 01:27:25.063 --> 01:27:27.848 [JC (Ryo)]: Sorry if you said it already, I was half-dazed out. 01:27:29.971 --> 01:27:32.535 [JC (Ryo)]: Does anyone know what it looks like or what type of tracks it leaves? 01:27:33.877 --> 01:27:42.250 [Riv (DM)]: The people that encountered it, all they said was that it was huge, looked kind of like a lizard, a big lizard. 01:27:43.208 --> 01:27:47.476 [Riv (DM)]: But it was dark and so they didn't get a good look at it. 01:27:47.797 --> 01:27:51.704 [JC (Ryo)]: We came from there and I encountered a beast that was very large. 01:27:51.885 --> 01:27:53.147 [JC (Ryo)]: I thought it was a large bear. 01:27:54.650 --> 01:27:57.395 [JC (Ryo)]: It gave me the impression that it was a large bear anyway. 01:27:57.415 --> 01:28:01.082 [Riv (DM)]: All these people say this thing was the size of a house, so maybe it was something different. 01:28:02.311 --> 01:28:06.682 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, I saw a shadow one night, but it didn't come close, not close enough. 01:28:07.304 --> 01:28:11.735 [Riv (DM)]: Oh, if you've been in those woods already, then I guess maybe you are cut out for this. 01:28:12.477 --> 01:28:14.683 [Riv (DM)]: All manner of monsters and creatures can be found there. 01:28:16.233 --> 01:28:22.065 [Riv (DM)]: But this is the biggest one, the most exciting one based on what you've been talking about. 01:28:22.105 --> 01:28:22.726 [Riv (DM)]: Scales. 01:28:23.187 --> 01:28:23.447 [Riv (DM)]: Big. 01:28:24.449 --> 01:28:25.010 [Riv (DM)]: Adrenaline. 01:28:25.331 --> 01:28:25.852 [Riv (DM)]: Excitement. 01:28:26.894 --> 01:28:29.099 [Riv (DM)]: Sounds right up your alley based on what I'm hearing. 01:28:29.740 --> 01:28:30.341 [Lacer (Kai)]: Sure does. 01:28:31.042 --> 01:28:33.347 [Lacer (Kai)]: Anything north-north of you by any chance?

01:57:28.352 --> 01:57:35.421 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Definitely not standard procedure, but I guess gold mines going offline is not also standard procedure either. 01:57:35.840 --> 01:57:37.265 [Riv (DM)]: No, no indeed. 01:57:37.666 --> 01:57:42.280 [Riv (DM)]: And I tell you what, it has certainly been a huge cause of angst in my life lately. 01:57:42.321 --> 01:57:43.926 [Riv (DM)]: Yum. 01:57:44.046 --> 01:57:45.310 [Riv (DM)]: At this point he's sat back down. 01:57:46.420 --> 01:57:49.903 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Several parties have already gone in, including an Empire contingent. 01:57:50.644 --> 01:57:51.164 [Riv (DM)]: Aye, of course. 01:57:51.204 --> 01:58:03.936 [Riv (DM)]: Well, the first time that I alerted the powers that be, as you might say, that we'd missed a few shipments, they were not very pleased and they immediately sent some people to go and investigate. 01:58:04.196 --> 01:58:05.217 [Riv (DM)]: Soldiers, I was told. 01:58:06.398 --> 01:58:10.001 [Riv (DM)]: Best of the bunch, but well, they never returned either. 01:58:10.822 --> 01:58:12.203 [Riv (DM)]: A second group was sent. 01:58:12.223 --> 01:58:14.385 [Riv (DM)]: This would have been, gosh, 01:58:14.365 --> 01:58:16.714 [Riv (DM)]: Nearly about three weeks ago, I think. 01:58:17.215 --> 01:58:18.119 [Riv (DM)]: No return from them either. 01:58:18.159 --> 01:58:23.920 [Riv (DM)]: At this point, things are starting to become, well, odd, to say the least, but also 01:58:25.908 --> 01:58:26.669 [Riv (DM)]: Well, anyway. 01:58:27.710 --> 01:58:28.490 [Riv (DM)]: We don't need to talk about that. 01:58:28.530 --> 01:58:40.240 [Riv (DM)]: However, the Empire has refused to give any more of their soldiers or men to lend in this matter and so they have tasked it to me to uncover the mystery and get the mine operational again. 01:58:42.542 --> 01:58:43.523 [Riv (DM)]: So I guess that's where you come in. 01:58:44.584 --> 01:58:47.527 [Riv (DM)]: Who here is proficient in insight? 01:58:48.948 --> 01:58:50.149 [Lacer (Kai)]: I am. 01:58:50.169 --> 01:58:51.750 [Riv (DM)]: Roll an insight check please, Kai. 01:58:54.533 --> 01:58:54.953 [Lacer (Kai)]: Insight. 01:58:59.438 --> 01:59:01.581 [Unmatched Speaker]: Alright. 01:59:02.803 --> 01:59:14.339 [Riv (DM)]: As this sort of initial conversation has started, you notice every now and then he puts his hand up to his mouth to like, you know, absently sort of scratch his cheek and then he chews on his fingernail a little bit. 01:59:15.200 --> 01:59:19.827 [Riv (DM)]: You can see his jaw clenching and unclenching and he's sort of like looking around a bit shiftily. 01:59:20.208 --> 01:59:21.670 [Riv (DM)]: This is a very stressed man. 01:59:23.913 --> 01:59:25.355 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'd just say you seem nervous. 01:59:26.497 --> 01:59:27.538 [Riv (DM)]: Well, I mean, can you blame me? 01:59:29.172 --> 01:59:30.313 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yes and no. 01:59:30.694 --> 01:59:32.736 [Lacer (Kai)]: You know, it's kind of out of your hands, you know? 01:59:33.657 --> 01:59:36.800 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, well, that's why I've apparently hired the best, right? 01:59:37.481 --> 01:59:42.106 [Riv (DM)]: We need to get things up and running again because, well, things won't be good if they don't. 01:59:44.909 --> 01:59:47.051 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm assuming the mine had guards. 01:59:47.231 --> 01:59:48.773 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Gold mines don't go unprotected. 01:59:48.813 --> 01:59:49.533 [Riv (DM)]: Of course. 01:59:51.796 --> 01:59:54.419 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Any information about the size of the contingent that you had defending it? 01:59:57.121 --> 01:59:57.762 [Riv (DM)]: Let me think. 02:00:00.374 --> 02:00:04.480 [Riv (DM)]: There would have been a few dozen miners themselves, and I would say... 02:00:06.903 --> 02:00:15.935 [Riv (DM)]: I can't remember the exact numbers, I usually leave that to Nihlus to figure out the exact workings, but I believe it would have been half a dozen to a dozen or so soldiers armed there at any given time. 02:00:20.061 --> 02:00:22.304 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm assuming they're all trustworthy and vetted men? 02:00:23.185 --> 02:00:23.566 [Riv (DM)]: Of course. 02:00:24.787 --> 02:00:25.388 [Riv (DM)]: Paid directly. 02:00:25.448 --> 02:00:28.913 [Lacer (Kai)]: Mm. 02:00:29.939 --> 02:00:31.261 [Lacer (Kai)]: Is Nihilus around? 02:00:33.505 --> 02:00:34.426 [Riv (DM)]: Well, you just saw him. 02:00:35.348 --> 02:00:36.590 [Riv (DM)]: Oh, okay. 02:00:36.710 --> 02:00:38.633 [Lacer (Kai)]: Oh, your butler guy. 02:00:38.653 --> 02:00:38.874 [Riv (DM)]: Yes. 02:00:40.016 --> 02:00:41.638 [Riv (DM)]: The one who apparently can't close windows. 02:00:42.980 --> 02:00:44.884 [Lacer (Kai)]: Well, not very reliable, I see. 02:00:45.685 --> 02:00:47.488 [Riv (DM)]: I've brought it up with him many times. 02:00:48.810 --> 02:00:49.952 [Riv (DM)]: Maybe he does it to spite me. 02:00:53.538 --> 02:00:54.900 [Riv (DM)]: Interesting relationship you have. 02:00:56.399 --> 02:00:57.681 [Riv (DM)]: I haven't described him as well. 02:00:57.961 --> 02:01:02.987 [Riv (DM)]: So he's wearing very, like the house, gaudy and ostentatious clothing. 02:01:03.908 --> 02:01:05.250 [Riv (DM)]: He's not a very attractive man. 02:01:06.892 --> 02:01:09.636 [Riv (DM)]: He has money and he's bought nice clothes. 02:01:09.656 --> 02:01:16.264 [Riv (DM)]: He has a nice haircut that he probably has a barber do up every morning. 02:01:17.493 --> 02:01:22.440 [Riv (DM)]: It's the look of someone that is clearly trying to be noble without being noble. 02:01:24.103 --> 02:01:27.288 [Riv (DM)]: He's, you know, he's got in with the Empire. 02:01:28.049 --> 02:01:30.312 [Riv (DM)]: He's done whatever he could to try and get to this position. 02:01:30.632 --> 02:01:38.404 [Riv (DM)]: And I guess if you put the pieces together, the stress may be coming from a fear to lose it all. 02:01:43.953 --> 02:01:50.583 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Maybe we need everybody to speak with Nihilus if he has more of an understanding of the guards and the patterns there. 02:01:53.388 --> 02:01:54.249 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, of course. 02:01:54.710 --> 02:01:56.212 [Riv (DM)]: Would you like me to ring for him? 02:01:57.534 --> 02:01:57.955 [Riv (DM)]: That would help. 02:01:58.856 --> 02:02:00.699 [Riv (DM)]: Picks up a little handbell on the table. 02:02:01.180 --> 02:02:01.761 [Riv (DM)]: Ding ding ding. 02:02:01.781 --> 02:02:07.530 [Riv (DM)]: You hear some rapidly approaching footsteps as the butler, Nihilus, walks in. 02:02:09.063 --> 02:02:09.924 [Riv (DM)]: You rang, sir? 02:02:09.944 --> 02:02:10.245 [Riv (DM)]: Dondar. 02:02:10.966 --> 02:02:12.509 [Riv (DM)]: Dondar makes the door blow open again. 02:02:15.353 --> 02:02:17.897 [Riv (DM)]: I guess he would have opened the door. 02:02:17.957 --> 02:02:21.844 [Riv (DM)]: And so do you do it as the door is beginning to open? 02:02:22.044 --> 02:02:23.046 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: As the door is opening, yeah. 02:02:24.789 --> 02:02:29.777 [Riv (DM)]: Nihilus nearly falls flat on his face as the door opens up faster than he was actually pushing it. 02:02:30.438 --> 02:02:31.740 [Riv (DM)]: Now, that was not me. 02:02:31.760 --> 02:02:33.703 [Riv (DM)]: I just closed all the windows, sir. 02:02:33.683 --> 02:02:36.928 [Riv (DM)]: Can you roll a stealth check for me? 02:02:36.968 --> 02:02:38.971 [Riv (DM)]: Surely Prestidigitation has like components. 02:02:47.362 --> 02:02:49.105 [Riv (DM)]: Okay, it's actually not that bad. 02:02:50.727 --> 02:02:54.493 [Riv (DM)]: I'm just looking at the components. 02:02:54.693 --> 02:02:56.616 [Riv (DM)]: It is verbal and semantics. 02:02:56.636 --> 02:02:59.660 [Riv (DM)]: You need to like mutter a word and move a hand gesture. 02:03:01.222 --> 02:03:03.285 [Riv (DM)]: Hey, I'll just do a Hail Mary. 02:03:05.223 --> 02:03:05.884 [Riv (DM)]: No modifiers. 02:03:08.048 --> 02:03:08.328 [Lacer (Kai)]: Nope. 02:03:08.348 --> 02:03:09.650 [Riv (DM)]: No one sees anything. 02:03:09.670 --> 02:03:11.694 [Riv (DM)]: Nihlus, there must be another window open. 02:03:12.555 --> 02:03:14.057 [Riv (DM)]: Obviously, look at what's going on out there. 02:03:14.779 --> 02:03:15.640 [Riv (DM)]: Doors banging open. 02:03:15.740 --> 02:03:18.044 [Riv (DM)]: Gosh, maybe we need to get the hinges fixed as well. 02:03:18.705 --> 02:03:29.302 [Riv (DM)]: Anyway, these fine gentlemen from the Green Griffins had some questions for you, I believe, just to do with the logistics of the camp there and the mine itself. 02:03:29.322 --> 02:03:30.123 [Riv (DM)]: Of course, sir. 02:03:30.143 --> 02:03:30.644 [Riv (DM)]: Happy to help. 02:03:31.145 --> 02:03:32.327 [Riv (DM)]: What questions do you have? 02:03:32.780 --> 02:03:35.967 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Just doing some pre-investigation. 02:03:36.208 --> 02:03:42.382 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Obviously if the mine's gone offline then the guards must be either out of action or absconded. 02:03:42.843 --> 02:03:45.810 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Some numbers, trustworthiness, how reliable are they? 02:03:47.782 --> 02:03:48.623 [Riv (DM)]: Well, okay. 02:03:50.386 --> 02:03:57.276 [Riv (DM)]: There are usually anywhere between 10 and 15 at any given time, soldiers that is, guarding the place. 02:03:57.376 --> 02:04:04.727 [Riv (DM)]: There's a, I don't want to say village, there's an encampment built at the entrance to the mine itself that stores the 02:04:04.707 --> 02:04:11.054 [Riv (DM)]: You know, the information for the offices and the bunkings and the sleep for the people that maintain a fairly permanent residence there. 02:04:11.675 --> 02:04:15.959 [Riv (DM)]: And then within the mine itself, there is quite an industry at this point. 02:04:15.999 --> 02:04:19.063 [Riv (DM)]: There are many mine carts and tracks that the miners use. 02:04:19.363 --> 02:04:23.528 [Riv (DM)]: Of the miners, there's, I believe at this point, a few dozen. 02:04:24.048 --> 02:04:27.492 [Riv (DM)]: When last I looked over the roster, there were about 30 there, I believe. 02:04:27.472 --> 02:04:35.319 [Riv (DM)]: Just good citizens of the Empire, men and women who have volunteered or are being paid, I should say, to work. 02:04:35.880 --> 02:04:47.190 [Riv (DM)]: In terms of the trustworthiness, of course, all of them are vetted and of utmost trust for such a valuable and important operation to the Empire. 02:04:47.351 --> 02:04:48.412 [Riv (DM)]: Can't just put anyone out there. 02:04:50.754 --> 02:04:57.360 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: The guards, are these experienced former soldiers or just available swords? 02:04:58.370 --> 02:05:01.814 [Riv (DM)]: No, no, they are, for the most part, supplied by the Empire itself. 02:05:02.034 --> 02:05:05.898 [Riv (DM)]: Obviously, we have to spend a bit of the actual employ. 02:05:06.518 --> 02:05:15.427 [Riv (DM)]: But, no, they come from the standard Imperial barracks, if you would. 02:05:18.871 --> 02:05:21.954 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Been any suspicious actions around the mine? 02:05:22.475 --> 02:05:23.876 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Any information coming out? 02:05:23.936 --> 02:05:24.256 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Word? 02:05:24.316 --> 02:05:24.917 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Whispers? 02:05:25.657 --> 02:05:26.458 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I think that's just it. 02:05:26.478 --> 02:05:27.199 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: End of patrols. 02:05:27.679 --> 02:05:30.723 [Riv (DM)]: It's been a completely smooth operation for years now. 02:05:34.388 --> 02:05:38.373 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: While they are talking, I would like to use my mage hand. 02:05:39.194 --> 02:05:42.658 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: While having it come in invisible, just slam the door. 02:05:43.339 --> 02:05:50.728 [Riv (DM)]: Alright, so you like kind of grab it from just like one of them, or I guess you could probably only do one of them, right? 02:05:51.509 --> 02:05:52.390 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: Yeah, just one. 02:05:53.078 --> 02:05:55.382 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: You grab that and just like pull it. 02:05:55.402 --> 02:05:59.089 [Riv (DM)]: At this point, they both kind of stop. 02:06:01.914 --> 02:06:03.276 [Riv (DM)]: Something odd is happening here. 02:06:03.296 --> 02:06:04.378 [Riv (DM)]: I don't like it. 02:06:04.899 --> 02:06:07.043 [Riv (DM)]: I go, it's haunted. 02:06:07.364 --> 02:06:08.286 [Riv (DM)]: The house is haunted. 02:06:08.306 --> 02:06:09.448 [Riv (DM)]: I think it might be time for you to leave. 02:06:09.608 --> 02:06:12.994 [Riv (DM)]: I'm very concerned. 02:06:13.531 --> 02:06:21.606 [Riv (DM)]: And I'm of a mind that you might be pulling some prank on me, so unless you have any other questions, please feel free to have Nihlus lead you out. 02:06:22.528 --> 02:06:23.650 [Riv (DM)]: Yes, of course, sir. 02:06:23.871 --> 02:06:24.752 [Riv (DM)]: Please ride this way. 02:06:24.792 --> 02:06:29.281 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'll linger a little bit as they're leading you out. 02:06:29.301 --> 02:06:29.481 [Riv (DM)]: Alright. 02:06:30.202 --> 02:06:36.855 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'd like to ask, any tracks, abnormal tracks in and out of the mine? 02:06:37.747 --> 02:06:38.588 [Riv (DM)]: I don't know. 02:06:38.608 --> 02:06:38.928 [Riv (DM)]: I don't know. 02:06:38.948 --> 02:06:39.669 [Riv (DM)]: I haven't heard anything. 02:06:41.330 --> 02:06:42.652 [Riv (DM)]: Please, leave. 02:06:42.812 --> 02:06:44.433 [Riv (DM)]: I really need to get back to this. 02:06:44.994 --> 02:06:46.676 [Lacer (Kai)]: That wasn't very helpful at all. 02:06:48.698 --> 02:06:51.100 [Riv (DM)]: Yes, well, I mean, that's why we pay you good money, isn't it? 02:06:52.521 --> 02:07:00.068 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yes, but we came for important information and it appears there was no information whatsoever. 02:07:01.930 --> 02:07:05.914 [Riv (DM)]: Well, if we had the information, then maybe we wouldn't need to contract out of the Empire. 02:07:07.936 --> 02:07:09.378 [Lacer (Kai)]: Fair points, fair points. 02:07:12.382 --> 02:07:14.025 [Riv (DM)]: The rest of you are let out and Vale lingers. 02:07:15.948 --> 02:07:19.172 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'll just turn to him and say, how well do you trust your man? 02:07:19.192 --> 02:07:22.417 [Riv (DM)]: My man? 02:07:22.958 --> 02:07:23.619 [Riv (DM)]: You mean Nihilus? 02:07:24.220 --> 02:07:24.440 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yes. 02:07:25.001 --> 02:07:28.746 [Riv (DM)]: Oh, he's been with me since I was a teenager, with my life. 02:07:30.349 --> 02:07:32.151 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Would you trust him with a mine full of gold? 02:07:32.191 --> 02:07:34.635 [Riv (DM)]: What are you implying? 02:07:36.353 --> 02:07:38.404 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: You have a very significant import operation. 02:07:39.892 --> 02:07:40.737 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Smooth sailing. 02:07:41.139 --> 02:07:44.035 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: He's in charge of the guards, he's in charge of hiring the workers. 02:07:45.162 --> 02:07:48.265 [Riv (DM)]: I mean, obviously I oversee things. 02:07:48.545 --> 02:07:55.752 [Riv (DM)]: I put my signature to things and I ensure that the, you know, higher level decisions are made. 02:07:55.812 --> 02:08:03.619 [Riv (DM)]: But these day-to-day matters, logistics, making sure that people are fed and paid, I don't necessarily need to get into the details of those. 02:08:04.099 --> 02:08:05.420 [Riv (DM)]: But I'm across most of the things. 02:08:06.381 --> 02:08:07.402 [Riv (DM)]: At a high enough level at least. 02:08:09.244 --> 02:08:10.325 [Riv (DM)]: No, don't you worry about Nihlus. 02:08:10.465 --> 02:08:13.768 [Riv (DM)]: He is loyal to me directly. 02:08:15.925 --> 02:08:16.465 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Very well. 02:08:16.726 --> 02:08:17.566 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Just something to consider. 02:08:18.507 --> 02:08:20.028 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Operations like that don't disappear. 02:08:20.109 --> 02:08:23.912 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: We're talking 40-50 people as well as two military contingents disappearing. 02:08:24.792 --> 02:08:29.757 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: That doesn't happen without some sort of involvement. 02:08:29.777 --> 02:08:31.338 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: And I'll step out and rejoin the party. 02:08:32.539 --> 02:08:32.859 [Riv (DM)]: Alright. 02:08:34.160 --> 02:08:37.323 [Riv (DM)]: Nihlus leads you through the house and back down the stairs. 02:08:38.584 --> 02:08:40.266 [Riv (DM)]: Gets to the front door and holds it open for you. 02:08:43.869 --> 02:08:45.510 [Riv (DM)]: And you can head back out onto the street. 02:08:48.207 --> 02:08:50.970 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Just eyeballing Nihilus. 02:08:50.990 --> 02:08:55.676 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Does he seem flustered at all other than the door shenanigans? 02:08:55.696 --> 02:08:58.860 [Riv (DM)]: The trauma of ghosts in the house. 02:09:00.922 --> 02:09:01.603 [Riv (DM)]: No, I don't think so. 02:09:01.763 --> 02:09:03.225 [Riv (DM)]: Roll an insight check. 02:09:03.625 --> 02:09:07.970 [Riv (DM)]: Let's just see if you can pick it up. 02:09:07.990 --> 02:09:09.372 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, it's not bad. 02:09:10.820 --> 02:09:22.132 [Riv (DM)]: There is a undercurrent of stress similar to his Master's in the sense that clearly the Empire is putting pressure on these people to get things up and running. 02:09:22.473 --> 02:09:23.514 [Riv (DM)]: They aren't giving them resources. 02:09:23.554 --> 02:09:24.975 [Riv (DM)]: They have to sort this shit out for themselves. 02:09:25.656 --> 02:09:28.059 [Riv (DM)]: He's holding it in better than the Master is. 02:09:29.941 --> 02:09:35.987 [Riv (DM)]: He's more used to needing to dignify himself, you know, conceal his emotions. 02:09:36.107 --> 02:09:38.610 [Riv (DM)]: But you do catch that he also has a touch of stress. 02:09:39.071 --> 02:09:40.472 [Riv (DM)]: It doesn't seem... 02:09:40.452 --> 02:10:07.945 [Riv (DM)]: Like malicious like it doesn't seem like a stress in a different way other than um you know what what norak was feeling if that makes sense okay i'm just trying to get a read on if there was anything that again i don't think so for the first time in history the butler didn't do it when val meets up with us i'll go that was a wasted time 02:10:08.870 --> 02:10:10.511 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Oh, we got some information. 02:10:11.893 --> 02:10:23.703 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I was expecting some sort of detailing with a gold mine, but we're dealing with something that can wipe out a dozen guards, 40 miners, and two military contingents. 02:10:24.824 --> 02:10:26.085 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: That's information we didn't have. 02:10:26.145 --> 02:10:28.147 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: This is not a small game. 02:10:29.188 --> 02:10:29.968 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: It's a lot of people. 02:10:32.911 --> 02:10:32.991 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Mmm. 02:10:33.011 --> 02:10:35.473 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: A large operation or something very nasty. 02:10:37.134 --> 02:10:37.915 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Sounds like fun. 02:10:40.662 --> 02:10:41.883 [Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, I look up at the sky. 02:10:41.944 --> 02:10:43.766 [Lacer (Kai)]: How high is the sun? 02:10:44.827 --> 02:10:46.048 [Riv (DM)]: It's a bit past midday now probably. 02:10:47.410 --> 02:10:48.491 [Riv (DM)]: It's getting towards afternoon. 02:10:52.456 --> 02:10:55.800 [Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, should we sleep on it and head out in the morning? 02:10:56.160 --> 02:11:01.727 [Lacer (Kai)]: Or should we head out this afternoon? 02:11:01.747 --> 02:11:03.229 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'd like to get a look at it in daylight. 02:11:03.349 --> 02:11:07.113 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Either we camp out or in the morning. 02:11:07.253 --> 02:11:07.834 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'm happy either. 02:11:10.126 --> 02:11:12.469 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'm just pulling out the map. 02:11:12.549 --> 02:11:17.695 [Lacer (Kai)]: How far is it from here to the mine in terms of travel? 02:11:18.756 --> 02:11:19.837 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, probably take a couple of days. 02:11:21.039 --> 02:11:21.659 [Lacer (Kai)]: Couple of days? 02:11:21.679 --> 02:11:23.521 [Lacer (Kai)]: Oh, then we might as well head out far. 02:11:23.561 --> 02:11:28.847 [JC (Ryo)]: Does this mine look like there's a path the whole way? 02:11:28.988 --> 02:11:30.990 [JC (Ryo)]: Like, could we get some horses or something? 02:11:31.230 --> 02:11:31.871 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Is there a road? 02:11:32.632 --> 02:11:34.514 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: You just thought there would be one, right? 02:11:34.994 --> 02:11:37.197 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: For an empire. 02:11:38.172 --> 02:11:38.753 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Goldmine. 02:11:39.013 --> 02:11:40.735 [Lacer (Kai)]: Since I've got the map, I'm looking out. 02:11:40.835 --> 02:11:51.565 [Lacer (Kai)]: Looks like there's a road from here to Lighthaven, which is close to the Darkwood, so I'm sure there's a follow the road up partially and then break off the road to get to the mine. 02:11:54.669 --> 02:11:57.972 [Lacer (Kai)]: Should we quickly grab some horses and head out? 02:12:06.020 --> 02:12:08.162 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Um, that'll probably make things a bit quicker. 02:12:11.332 --> 02:12:20.305 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Did we have horses or cart? 02:12:20.325 --> 02:12:21.246 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I honestly can't remember. 02:12:22.288 --> 02:12:23.009 [Lacer (Kai)]: We had a cart! 02:12:23.069 --> 02:12:24.190 [Lacer (Kai)]: We had a cart! 02:12:24.210 --> 02:12:25.192 [Lacer (Kai)]: What happened to the cart? 02:12:26.233 --> 02:12:27.515 [Riv (DM)]: As far as I'm aware you still have it. 02:12:28.176 --> 02:12:32.462 [Riv (DM)]: It is being held for you at the River's Watch. 02:12:32.965 --> 02:12:36.249 [Riv (DM)]: And I should probably ask you to pay a bit. 02:12:36.970 --> 02:12:39.213 [Riv (DM)]: Do you want to just cross off like a gold? 02:12:39.393 --> 02:12:41.416 [Riv (DM)]: I think I said it was like five silver per night. 02:12:49.947 --> 02:12:50.568 [Lacer (Kai)]: Yeah, I'll do it. 02:12:50.668 --> 02:12:51.009 [Lacer (Kai)]: I'll do it. 02:12:51.469 --> 02:12:58.939 [Lacer (Kai)]: We're kind of rich. 02:13:02.429 --> 02:13:03.370 [Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, it is done. 02:13:03.410 --> 02:13:07.114 [Lacer (Kai)]: Shall we head back to River's Watch? 02:13:08.135 --> 02:13:09.657 [JC (Ryo)]: Wait, what time of the day is it? 02:13:09.717 --> 02:13:11.779 [JC (Ryo)]: It's like still mid-early afternoon. 02:13:11.799 --> 02:13:13.240 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, sort of like nearing afternoon. 02:13:14.902 --> 02:13:18.906 [JC (Ryo)]: I mean, if it's going to take us a couple of days to get there, why should we lose half a day? 02:13:20.067 --> 02:13:21.349 [JC (Ryo)]: We have the horses, we have the cart. 02:13:23.110 --> 02:13:25.853 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: Yeah, head out and make some progress. 02:13:25.873 --> 02:13:26.474 [Lacer (Kai)]: Head out and camp. 02:13:28.816 --> 02:13:31.339 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: And see what mischief can be found on the road. 02:13:33.968 --> 02:13:35.870 [Riv (DM)]: Just trying to remember. 02:13:37.892 --> 02:13:38.173 [Riv (DM)]: What? 02:13:38.693 --> 02:13:39.174 [Riv (DM)]: Oh, there we go. 02:13:39.374 --> 02:13:39.795 [Riv (DM)]: Oh, look at this. 02:13:39.815 --> 02:13:40.996 [Riv (DM)]: I actually wrote it down in my notes. 02:13:41.036 --> 02:13:41.597 [Riv (DM)]: Holy shit. 02:13:42.938 --> 02:13:44.840 [Riv (DM)]: You purchased two horses and one wagon. 02:13:50.947 --> 02:13:51.768 [Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, cool. 02:13:51.788 --> 02:13:55.833 [Lacer (Kai)]: Let's head back to River's Watch in Europe. 02:13:55.853 --> 02:13:56.734 [Riv (DM)]: Cool. 02:13:56.754 --> 02:13:57.094 [Riv (DM)]: Alrighty. 02:13:57.855 --> 02:13:58.896 [Riv (DM)]: Crossing across the city. 02:14:00.563 --> 02:14:01.685 [Riv (DM)]: Heading over the bridge again. 02:14:01.725 --> 02:14:13.743 [Riv (DM)]: As you get to the other side of the bridge, you notice there are like, kind of, not like crowds forming, but there appear to be, you can see groups of people heading up the road a little bit. 02:14:14.163 --> 02:14:17.689 [Riv (DM)]: A few people sort of like tugging on each other, come on, come on, it's starting I think. 02:14:18.510 --> 02:14:26.622 [Riv (DM)]: And people are kind of like, you can kind of just tell there's a flow of people heading in a direction up past the bridge. 02:14:36.946 --> 02:14:40.418 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I'd like to find a vantage point to watch from a safe distance. 02:14:43.890 --> 02:14:47.121 [JC (Ryo)]: How far ahead is this, uh, Riv? 02:14:47.141 --> 02:14:49.048 [Riv (DM)]: Um, it's, I mean, it's just kind of... 02:14:49.197 --> 02:14:52.802 [Riv (DM)]: If you look on the main road where you are, it's just kind of up the road. 02:14:52.983 --> 02:14:55.987 [Riv (DM)]: It's not like there's any particular place of people gathering. 02:14:56.347 --> 02:14:58.851 [Riv (DM)]: You can just kind of see people out rushing in a certain direction. 02:14:59.773 --> 02:15:10.328 [Riv (DM)]: Up, you know, I could say I guess up ahead of you and to the right you can see there's an alleyway, more of like a road that heads in further into the city and people seem to be heading up that way. 02:15:19.471 --> 02:15:20.332 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Turn to the party. 02:15:20.453 --> 02:15:30.409 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Couldn't hurt to get a feel for the temperature of the people here, but probably best not to get too involved. 02:15:30.429 --> 02:15:34.355 [Lacer (Kai)]: Do I see any high points around overlooking this location? 02:15:35.857 --> 02:15:37.139 [Lacer (Kai)]: That we can easily get to? 02:15:37.720 --> 02:15:39.343 [Riv (DM)]: It's the buildings themselves. 02:15:39.964 --> 02:15:43.690 [Riv (DM)]: But other than that, yeah, probably not. 02:15:44.571 --> 02:15:46.795 [Riv (DM)]: Are they public or do we have to... 02:15:47.585 --> 02:15:49.027 [Riv (DM)]: They're pretty public. 02:15:49.228 --> 02:15:49.949 [Riv (DM)]: It's daytime. 02:15:50.029 --> 02:15:53.214 [Riv (DM)]: It would probably be a bit weird to just start climbing buildings in the middle of the day. 02:15:55.718 --> 02:15:56.940 [JC (Ryo)]: Let's get a bit closer. 02:15:56.960 --> 02:15:59.124 [JC (Ryo)]: If you guys want to get up high and have a look, I can sort that out. 02:16:02.009 --> 02:16:03.271 [Lacer (Kai)]: Alright, let's-a go. 02:16:03.311 --> 02:16:07.618 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Let's-a go! 02:16:08.543 --> 02:16:12.949 [Riv (DM)]: Alright, you can sort of like follow away along, keeping a bit of distance from other people. 02:16:14.171 --> 02:16:22.383 [Riv (DM)]: Up the road into that turnoff that you saw, you can see there's a cairn which is used in the city to indicate, you know, road signs and building names and stuff like that. 02:16:22.403 --> 02:16:29.213 [Riv (DM)]: It's a structure, it's like a kind of like a stout pillar of stone with an engraving on top of it. 02:16:29.513 --> 02:16:34.160 [Riv (DM)]: And this is a sign that says Serenity Plaza pointing in the direction up the road. 02:16:34.761 --> 02:16:37.605 [Riv (DM)]: And now looking up alleyway you can see there are just, yeah, 02:16:37.585 --> 02:16:41.773 [Riv (DM)]: Dozens of people in small groups here and there just kind of like all starting to head in that direction. 02:16:44.458 --> 02:16:47.845 [Lacer (Kai)]: As we're heading, I look at the people heading in the same direction. 02:16:48.205 --> 02:16:49.849 [Lacer (Kai)]: How are they feeling? 02:16:49.929 --> 02:16:50.690 [Lacer (Kai)]: Are they happy? 02:16:50.710 --> 02:16:51.352 [Lacer (Kai)]: Are they angry? 02:16:51.372 --> 02:16:52.113 [Lacer (Kai)]: Are they anxious? 02:16:54.157 --> 02:16:54.958 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah, interesting question. 02:16:54.999 --> 02:16:55.780 [Riv (DM)]: Roll insight. 02:17:04.045 --> 02:17:05.606 [Riv (DM)]: Gosh, your insight is pretty good, isn't it?

02:54:13.406 --> 02:54:15.449 [Riv (DM)]: So action surge was for movement. 02:54:15.630 --> 02:54:18.535 [Riv (DM)]: You attacked normally first. 02:54:19.392 --> 02:54:19.853 [Riv (DM)]: Okay. 02:54:19.873 --> 02:54:20.413 [Riv (DM)]: No, it makes sense. 02:54:20.433 --> 02:54:24.720 [Riv (DM)]: So it's sort of like you've just threaded another action in between your first and your second attack. 02:54:24.840 --> 02:54:24.980 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah. 02:54:25.000 --> 02:54:26.963 [Riv (DM)]: Your second attack is from your first attack. 02:54:27.043 --> 02:54:27.483 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Okay, cool. 02:54:27.544 --> 02:54:27.904 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: No, good. 02:54:27.964 --> 02:54:28.365 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Makes sense. 02:54:28.385 --> 02:54:32.030 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I've basically just used an action to increase my movement speed to 60 feet for the turn. 02:54:32.210 --> 02:54:32.771 [Riv (DM)]: Yeah. 02:54:32.791 --> 02:54:33.953 [Riv (DM)]: And to be fair, we could have just done it. 02:54:33.973 --> 02:54:35.815 [Riv (DM)]: You could have done an action surge at the beginning. 02:54:36.015 --> 02:54:36.536 [Riv (DM)]: Anyway. 02:54:36.556 --> 02:54:36.817 [Riv (DM)]: All right. 02:54:36.837 --> 02:54:39.240 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Excellent. 02:54:42.089 --> 02:54:44.171 [Riv (DM)]: Oh, two. 02:54:44.191 --> 02:54:45.332 [Riv (DM)]: Ten just misses. 02:54:45.793 --> 02:54:46.253 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Just misses. 02:54:47.755 --> 02:54:49.497 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Yep. 02:54:53.761 --> 02:55:00.808 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Every time I get to this character sheet, I'm going to wrap my head around where things are. 02:55:02.630 --> 02:55:10.678 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: I will Bardic Inspiration on what we got up next. 02:55:13.544 --> 02:55:14.385 [Lacer (Kai)]: Donda. 02:55:15.968 --> 02:55:16.689 [Lacer (Kai)]: Does that have a range?

02:59:28.762 --> 02:59:58.482 [Riv (DM)]: He would have he would have gotten around down this way to just avoid your um your like he has to leave your combat range and he's still like kind of within it if that makes sense um cool so that brings us to the end of his turn well he's turned his back to me anyway yeah um and it is engaging him yeah yeah all right uh sorry so when can i apply a bonus action whenever every time on your turn you can yeah 02:59:59.879 --> 03:00:01.341 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: And that's separate from my action? 03:00:01.861 --> 03:00:02.122 [Riv (DM)]: Correct. 03:00:02.142 --> 03:00:02.542 [Riv (DM)]: Yep. 03:00:02.803 --> 03:00:07.889 [Riv (DM)]: But you can only use it for abilities and features that are bonus action features, if that makes sense. 03:00:11.012 --> 03:00:11.092 [Riv (DM)]: Yep. 03:00:11.113 --> 03:00:12.815 [Riv (DM)]: Oh, and just a quick note on that as well. 03:00:12.955 --> 03:00:23.447 [Riv (DM)]: So if you use a spell that consumes a spell slot with your bonus action, you can only use a cantrip that consumes... You can only use a cantrip for your main action, so you can't use both. 03:00:24.348 --> 03:00:25.650 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: Interesting. 03:00:27.419 --> 03:00:34.495 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Oh, these fun things. 03:00:34.916 --> 03:00:35.196 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Yeah. 03:00:42.412 --> 03:00:45.900 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Are there any areas, um, up high that I can see?

03:01:36.835 --> 03:01:41.622 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: If the spell says the spell ends when you use an action? 03:01:43.593 --> 03:01:46.958 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: When you use your action, does a bonus action count? 03:01:47.338 --> 03:01:48.800 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: You don't use a bonus action to move. 03:01:48.860 --> 03:01:51.023 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: You have action, movement, and bonus. 03:01:52.365 --> 03:01:53.287 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: You've got three things. 03:01:53.527 --> 03:01:54.849 [Vael (Vaeleran)]: And you interact with an item. 03:01:56.771 --> 03:01:57.873 [Riv (DM)]: Which spell are you thinking, dude? 03:01:59.295 --> 03:02:03.221 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Well, I want to use Witch Bolt and then jump away with Misty Sip. 03:02:03.241 --> 03:02:06.445 [Riv (DM)]: So there would be two level pills. 03:02:06.728 --> 03:02:08.490 [Lacer (Kai)]: What's your cantrip attack spells? 03:02:10.693 --> 03:02:14.758 [Lacer (Kai)]: You only can use a cantrip and then Misty Step away if that's what you're going for. 03:02:15.198 --> 03:02:16.039 [Riv (DM)]: Yep. 03:02:16.059 --> 03:02:20.365 [Riv (DM)]: So because Misty Step consumes a second level spell, you would only be able to use a cantrip for your main action. 03:02:20.705 --> 03:02:26.092 [Riv (DM)]: So what you could do is you could Misty Step and then cast Frostbite as a cantrip against them. 03:02:26.432 --> 03:02:28.695 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Oh yeah, so I can only cantrip, right? 03:02:28.715 --> 03:02:28.835 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Yeah. 03:02:29.496 --> 03:02:32.039 [Deathmouse (Eryndor)]: You can use one spell slot per turn. 03:02:33.661 --> 03:02:34.542 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Ah, gotcha, okay. 03:02:35.787 --> 03:02:39.293 [Kiwi (Dondar)]: Then yes, then I shall do that, essentially. 03:02:40.956 --> 03:02:43.440 [Riv (DM)]: I will Misty Step. 03:02:44.582 --> 03:02:46.846 [Riv (DM)]: Misty Step is big distance, I think. 03:02:46.966 --> 03:02:48.269 [Riv (DM)]: It's like... 03:02:48.289 --> 03:02:49.390 [Riv (DM)]: It's up to 30 feet. 03:02:49.431 --> 03:02:49.931 [Riv (DM)]: 30 feet, cool. 03:02:49.951 --> 03:02:50.713 [Riv (DM)]: Are you going up?
