Episode Transcript

Will (00:00):
Nother realm is a narrative driven tabletop role

(00:02):
playing game podcast. For thisseason, we're using the Dungeons
and Dragons five e rules. Kinda.
Sometimes the language on thispodcast can get a little spicy.
But if that doesn't bother you,my name is Wil. And I play six

Bruce (00:20):
divers and I'm the voice of Archie.

Fraser (00:22):
I'm Fraser and I play Mark bark smooth.

Tanner (00:25):
And I'm your game master tenor. And this is what happened
on the last episode of Notherrealm. The Neverthere There I am
dorm loud The Revenant whatprison? Do you hold me in?

Bruce (00:41):
I open it and I just think of Marburg and I reach and
grab the first thing and pull ashard as I can.

Tanner (00:46):
Dorm loud tries to reach out for you and pull you back
but you are flung from the bagtoo quickly and pulled out.

Fraser (00:53):
You know, don't go in there. 10 out of 10 would not
recommend.

Will (00:57):
I'm sorry, I forgot that you don't know who Zeek is.

Fraser (00:59):
I remember everyone that I had forgotten when they got
eaten by the entity.

Tanner (01:04):
If you are looking for access, I might actually have
something for that. A man by thename of tallest Java,

Will (01:13):
Archie. Where's that rain?

Bruce (01:14):
Next time we leave town i'll give it to you but let's
keep it where it is for now justin case. Oh shopkeeper decides
to ask questions. You've stolenfrom

Tanner (01:22):
the wrong people. I want to know if you've heard of the
Court of Justice.

Bruce (01:29):
Yeah, the boogey man behind all the things that
caught people can explain.

Fraser (01:34):
Six you tell him

Will (01:37):
young Dinsdale.

Tanner (01:38):
Oh yeah, sorry. Yeah, yeah. What's up, man? Your
brother died?

(02:21):
Ha

Will (02:29):
yeah. Young Young Daniel will never have a younger
younger. Why? Why D? We got wegave him a nickname before he
died. Tragically. But I mean,that was like his. That was his
only dream was having a cut ofhis own. I mean, like

Bruce (02:52):
well, sometimes dreams are just viciously ripped out
from underneath you. So youshould probably come to terms
with the fact that yourbrother's dead.

Will (02:59):
Yeah, he's dead. He Wait.
He kind of smelled like I'mmaking all the luck. No, do not
do it. i This is

Tanner (03:11):
this is so much information right now. It makes
you feel better. Yeah.

Will (03:16):
I got a guy in half it did it. That does? Yes. I probably
would make me feel better if Iwasn't like in shock. Wait,
maybe? Look, I'm I'm not thebest at this sometimes. Is is
it? Do you want details? Orshould I just say he passed

(03:37):
away? Quietly. Do I want detailsof my brother's death? And then
oh, my brother. Daniels dead.
Young Daniel.

Tanner (03:49):
The daddy was my dad's Daniel is dead oh, what
do I do with my hands?

Bruce (04:04):
I lightly smack him across the cheek. Alright. Look,
Rob. You got to man up. You'rethe man of the house now because
your brother's dead.

Tanner (04:14):
But that is still alive.

Bruce (04:16):
He's old all right. He's older can't do what he used to.
So now you need to man up andtake care of your household
focus on now.

Will (04:22):
Here's a suggestion. Yeah.
What if you have a kid and namehim young Daniel the younger
Well, that might be good

Tanner (04:33):
because right now my my dad is just Daniel. You can't be
Daniel the elder without ayounger so I don't know. Maybe

Will (04:42):
Archie, Mark Mark. I'm not sure what else to say.

Bruce (04:48):
We don't want to go to your six. Let's go. I think

Fraser (04:52):
too much.

Will (04:53):
I hope you have a nice life. Young David Dinsdale
Dinsdale, Denzil

Bruce (04:59):
boy He didn't he's not young Daniel and I walk off

Tanner (05:02):
oh my god

Fraser (05:06):
heartless

Will (05:09):
Oh, well, nobody could be young Daniel. He was great. Now
he's dead and I walk we justleft

Tanner (05:18):
Mark. Mark Mark You gotta save this. Are you gonna
save this cavalcade ofruthlessness? I

Bruce (05:23):
tried I tried but he wasn't listening so

Fraser (05:27):
so a wizard blew some shiny sticky napalm on your
brother and then a more powerfulwas a little on fire. Good luck
kidmagic and wizards and sorcerers
bright

Will (05:52):
shiny sticky navel I think we did good. Well
handled gentleman. We should.
Maybe we can make this into ourcareer after we do. Kill the
smoke. I don't know what ourquest is. Honestly. Yeah,

Fraser (06:12):
people can just hire us to go around and give bad news.
They don't want to tell people

Will (06:17):
we seem to handle it pretty well. I think he's having
a They call this the grief griefsession.

Tanner (06:24):
I've skipped the first three stages and now I'm mad
What is its grief? Anger orbargaining? I don't remember.

Bruce (06:35):
I thought it was initially it was a denial,
denial.

Will (06:40):
Denial, bargaining anger grief acceptance. Something like
that. Something like that sevenstages so we're missing a couple
Alright, so you guys

Tanner (06:51):
you guys fuck off I guess and leave leave the young
once potential wizard nowinitiate in the quarter jesters

Bruce (07:06):

to use the quarter jesters tomurder magic users?

Tanner (07:12):
Yeah, well, so a win win.

Bruce (07:17):
Was it we basically just created the Witcher world where
they don't like people who canuse magic.

Tanner (07:21):
Yeah, this is the seed.
This is the seed that does that.
You're welcome. Author of TheWitcher Henry Cavill. Henry
capital is good for all right.
So you guys go back to the edge.
You get a good night's sleep andget ready for the next day. So
currently, the quest is meet upwith the Queen's advisor in

(07:43):
drawers didn't mill before youguys left outward enterprises,
Bates said he'd put togetheryour traveling supplies so that
we don't have to worry about allthat and pack up your horses.
Everyone has their own horsenow. Stable grandpa was a
frickin gentleman. So you guysare all packed up and ready to
head out of Leylen? Is thereanything in particular you'd

(08:04):
like to take care of before youstart your trek?

Bruce (08:07):
out of character?
Question? Yeah. Was I supposedto receive something to contact
the quarter jesters? Ah, no.
It's

Will (08:14):
kind of they'll contact you sort of thing. Okay. No,
don't call us. We'll call you.

Bruce (08:20):
Yeah, one of them call you to murder don't call us to
ask to murder. Yeah.

Will (08:24):
Yeah. And you got, you know, a very discreet bunch of
people. All three of us aresuper discreet. And we're just
scraping by Yes.

Tanner (08:33):
Never Never let a single bit of information slip them
metallic.

Will (08:37):
Yes, yes. Yes. Yes. Why metallic? are you pointing out
somebody specific?

Tanner (08:42):
No, no, no, I'm just saying that everyone has a
certain amount of metals intheir body. That's just how you
know,

Will (08:48):
true. Yeah, true. True.
True. True. True. True. True.
True. Yeah, iron. You am IronMan. I got it.

Bruce (08:54):
Okay, me an Iron Man. Me

Tanner (08:56):
am Iron Man. Alright, so anything else you guys you're
leaving Leylen This is a fartrek, you'll be a couple of
days. The better part of a weekactually tracking over two
drawers in Mill since isdirectly north of the capital of
Velia. You'll be crossing ariver if you're going straight
as the crow flies West. You'llbe crossing over plains

(09:18):
potentially through the darkspur thicket to get to draws to
mill otherwise you can cut downstay on the roads go through
Grineer paths above Hill home,hit the Capitol and then go
north into drawers did mill butI think last time we discussed
you guys didn't want to do that.
Especially since the Capitolmight be more aware of at least
one of you.

Bruce (09:41):
I don't know what you're talking about. Who's this voice
in the sky accusing thingsoverseas? Ah, fucking.

Will (09:48):
I don't know. He sounds dumb.

Fraser (09:50):
I can't trust him.

Bruce (09:51):
I immediately get further away from these two.

Tanner (09:54):
Good call. It's a really good call.
Oh that the voice in the skywill remember For that,

Will (10:01):
oh no. Tell Tale, please.
Um, okay, so back to that out ofgame just as a point of
discussion. I think we decidedto stay away from the towns
because of seeing your Archieand his reputation.

Bruce (10:16):
I don't know. We're talking player characters
referencing.

Will (10:22):
So yeah, I think we're gonna go take the road less
traveled. Alright, cool.

Bruce (10:28):
So I have again, I have question. Yeah, I asked him to
put a asked alias Finch. Alias.
Thank you. I can't remember hisfucking name. I asked him to put
like a handy dandy thing tocover the lower half of my face
on my on my. You gave your masksomething? Okay, cool. Thank
you.

Tanner (10:47):
Your mask matches the color of your suit. Fantastic.
It's basically like a bandana.

Bruce (10:53):
So I'm basically now highwayman. So what you're
telling me pretty much I turned26 And I go freeze. That's not
his accent at all. It's very

Will (11:02):
six completely freezes. I got to work. Alright, let's

Fraser (11:07):
go. Another question real quick. Didn't didn't we
develop some sort of alternateidentities?

Will (11:12):
Yes. You are all given.

Tanner (11:15):
Alternate identities you're given, like, basically
missed fantasy passports. does.

Fraser (11:21):
Does anybody remember what mine was? I know. It was
very silly. It was fucking

Tanner (11:24):
stupid. Steve. Ralph Ralph. Ralph Ralph.

Bruce (11:30):
Okay, I thought when I wanted Ralph Ralph, but he said,
Ralph, see, it doesn't matter.

Tanner (11:36):
I'll Stevens or something. Yeah, I don't know,
Steven, probably. I'll listenback. And if you get it wrong,
then I'll punish you in thefuture. Sweet. All right. Okay,
you guys have your newidentities, you have some masks,
you have all this stuff thatyou'll need, which means you're
re upped on your hand axes, andany crossbow bolts that you

(11:57):
might need. You're fully rested,and you're ready to head out
level five bastards to the west.
across the plains. You leaveearly in the morning when the
sun is just rising, the weatheris perfect. A little mist there
it clears as the sun continuesto trace across the sky. The
trip is going to take you a fewdays. So your trek begins on

(12:18):
your horses. I'll ask you acouple of questions about how
you're traveling but beyondthat, you know any conversations
you guys want to have with eachother this is a good time for it
until we get to a point wherewe're resting so what what's
your traveling speed andtraveling order? Who is upfront
along your trail and searchingfor the correct direction who's

(12:41):
basically doing the navigationnot me anyone with good survival
skill?

Fraser (12:49):
I actually have navigators tools on me.

Tanner (12:54):
Oh, and those are for the sea but yeah, they

Fraser (12:59):
are technically for the sea I suppose.

Tanner (13:01):
But I think I think you could if you know how to
navigate via the stars or signsin on the sea you could probably
understand a little bit abouttraveling overland if you don't
know

Fraser (13:12):
how to get where you need to go.

Tanner (13:13):
Yeah. Probably is isn't really completely unrelated.

Bruce (13:17):
No, it's not it's the same fucking constellations.
Yes, guy.

Tanner (13:21):
I figured as much and no, it's not. Yeah,

Bruce (13:23):
I mean, unless there's trees and then you can't see
this guy and

Will (13:26):
then right that's the problem. You typically on land
you just follow the big burningball in the sky. Oh, I

Bruce (13:33):
was gonna follow the you know roads. But yeah.

Tanner (13:35):
Oh, you guys aren't taking the roads. If you go
straight West, no road, you'recutting across the plains.

Fraser (13:40):
All right, let's head away from the sun.

Tanner (13:43):
So yeah, you guys, you guys know which way the sunrises
in the West. So you guys, Ithink you have pretty good
heading and understanding whereyou're gonna go. Um, Mark, Mark,
you'll be up front since youhave the most experience
navigating. I'm just going todictate so we can get on with
this travel throughout the day.
You guys have a very pleasantday of traveling. A bit of a

(14:04):
breeze. But the sun stays toyour backup until noon and
doesn't get very warm throughoutthe day. It's a it's very
pleasant traveling so far.
You're keeping the horses at anice trot or canter. whichever
one's faster. And you're justyou're just heading over the
plains. And then later in theday, you know the sun begins to

(14:27):
crest over the sky and set inthe West as you continue on your
travels. After a long day oftravel. You guys have the option
of setting up your camp orcontinue through the night if
you really wanted to. It's up toyou. So what are you doing for
your travel plans for thisevening?

Fraser (14:45):
Are the horses need a break?

Will (14:46):
Yeah, I feel like doors is needed right? We need a break.
I'll set up my century postwe'll set up a campfire died My
ass hurts.

Fraser (14:54):
Let's stop here.

Will (14:56):
David Hasselhoff pounding your ass

Tanner (14:59):
Wow. Wow

Fraser (15:04):
let's keep going

Tanner (15:07):
but it takes one point of exhaustion from that oh

Bruce (15:09):
shit fucking a we'll

Will (15:11):
have time to go to sleep for you guys, I don't sleep.

Tanner (15:16):
Alright so you know as far as campsites go, you want to
find someplace potentially forthe horses to drink water had
nice, you know patch of grassfor them to graze upon. So
whoever wants to and I'mguessing it's probably going to
be Fraser if you're the onesearching around. I need someone
to roll survival for me to seeif you can you find a good place
to camp out. Oh,

Fraser (15:38):
does anybody have better survival than zero?

Will (15:40):
I haven't played three.
Three years. So

Fraser (15:44):
let me let you do that.

Will (15:45):
Don't worry guys. I'll find a good place to sleep. 11

Bruce (15:52):
Okay, great. That's not a great place at all. Go over
here. I'm going to 16

Tanner (15:57):
Oh, nice. Okay.

Fraser (16:00):
Everybody else is rolling. All right, go for it.
I got an 18 Actually no, this

Bruce (16:08):
guy seems to know what he's talking about. Yeah,

Will (16:11):
I think he's right.

Tanner (16:13):
So six with absolutely no knowledge of of actually
traversing the lands or nomemory of how to do it properly
or what organic beings need justpicks out a plot of grass that's
out in the open no covering noprotections knows nothing,
source of water, anything likethat. Archie you from this

(16:36):
vantage point where six pointsout you find a place that's
farther off like you hear in thedistance the trickling of water
and see a place where a breezeis cutting over a portion of a
stream. But this area is prettyexposed. If anyone was going to
find you through the night. Markbark you didn't see often the
further descent that there's anoutcropping of stones out and
along this little stream whereyou can kind of post everything

(16:57):
up create a bit of a lien to andeveryone can sort of hide behind
that post your horses up andstuff a bit of water. So you
guys set yourselves up for thenight. Build a campfire. Is
there any discussions that youwould like to have while you're
here? Considering this will bethe first of four days of
travel?

Will (17:16):
Mark Mark? Why were you in prison? Just curious more than
any

Bruce (17:23):
prisoner Trust me I know prisoners.

Will (17:26):
How are you in the county jail? Of Arcus

Fraser (17:30):
well see I stumbled into town and came across the mayor
and he seemed to have somethings that I wanted so I
murdered him oh

Will (17:44):
I Yep. Are you are you fucking with me? Maybe Okay,
Archie seems like you got somestuff in common with Mark bar

Bruce (18:01):
Hi, I'm not a murderer everybody I have killed deserve
to be killed.

Will (18:06):
Did he deserve to be killed Mark bark?

Fraser (18:09):
I mean he had kind of a shitty face oh my god

Tanner (18:20):
a team of the most dislikable?

Bruce (18:24):
Excuse me voice in the sky on plenty likable.

Fraser (18:29):
Let me ask you a question metal man. How did you
become a metal man?

Will (18:35):
I have no clue. I just stares at you.

Fraser (18:39):
What a story.

Will (18:42):
I wish I had more information. I'm actually one of
the things I'm going to belooking for. I'm looking for
brother Ganzel. Oh and CantelliI think they have information
mostly can tell you because aguy I don't know if he's dead or
not. Anyways, Argo Malka whoused to be my partner. Am I

(19:05):
saying this right, Archie?
Partner? Yeah, I suppose.

Bruce (19:09):
Absolutely. Definitely your partner.

Will (19:11):
I think I think the pictures showed him being my
partner. My name used to beJason and I was very cool. I was
super cool. As Jason, which ismy name now. Hold up my little

Bruce (19:22):
badge thing that we do on calls Jason. Jason was a fucking
douche.

Will (19:26):
I don't know he's seen.
Oh, yeah. That was that onetime. And I don't think he knows
where babies come from. I don'tknow where babies. Where do
babies come from?

Fraser (19:38):
Six. I'm going to teach you a new skill. It's called
embellishment. You can just makestuff up when people ask you
things to make the story moreinteresting. It's about the
story. So next time someone asksyou make up something exciting.

Will (19:52):
Oh, I'd like to give that a try. Ask me again.

Fraser (19:58):
600 you become a metal man.

Will (20:02):
I have no clue spaceship spaceship spaceship Jason.

Fraser (20:13):
Go on.

Will (20:15):
big elephant.

Fraser (20:19):
Okay, already better.

Will (20:24):
It put a magical hat on my head. Now made of metal. I did
it.

Fraser (20:33):
You still have some work to do, but that's sure as a
start.

Will (20:37):
Look, I'm not very good at lying.

Fraser (20:41):
It's not lying. It's fudging the truth for the sake
of a good story.

Will (20:46):
Sounds like a lie how you will? Out? Hey, would you like
to play a game of chess? Andopen my chess board? I haven't
opened it a long time. Wehaven't had a chance to rest.

Fraser (21:06):
Sure.
What are the rules? What was indon't you?

Will (21:11):
This one moves like this guy.
And this one moves like this

Bruce (21:17):
guy really killed my

Will (21:20):
the goal of this is to capture my king or your king.
And then you win. Yeah.

Fraser (21:28):
Too much to remember.
And I flipped the

Will (21:33):
they're all magnetized.
It just closes my chessboard.
i Oh, you're saying it was justit's always in you. You get
pulled out. You just flip itout? Oh, yes. Yes. Thanks so
much.

Tanner (21:46):
They put play chess in your guts. All right, guys.
Chest, your chest and yourchest. Chest. Chest. Chest.

Bruce (21:55):
Chest. Chest, chest, Chest.

Tanner (21:58):
Chest, your chest.

Will (21:58):
I call this my chest Chest.

Tanner (22:02):
Chest, Chest. Chest.
Nice. Chestnuts. Open fire. Youall go to sleep. You get? Yeah,
well, you go to rest mode.

Will (22:10):
Excellent. Mark Mark.
Don't sleep.

Fraser (22:14):
Don't sleep that go into a four hour trance.

Tanner (22:18):
The four of you shut the fuck up.

Bruce (22:23):
There's only three of us.

Tanner (22:26):
Oh, I said four of you.
I'm sorry. The six of you. Shutthe fuck up six of us.
The three of you and yourhorses.

Will (22:35):
And what do we do with Aaron as your by the way? You
left him asleep? In

Fraser (22:42):
Yeah, asleep in the in the Yeah, he's gotta

Bruce (22:44):
say fine.

Will (22:45):
I would say he's gonna wake up confused but he already
is. at all time. He wakes

Fraser (22:50):
up confused every day.

Tanner (22:52):
If you wake up confused every day, but you accept it.
Are you actually confused? Mm

Will (22:58):
hmm. Phil okay. What are we what happened?

Bruce (23:00):
Yes, but you've just gotten past

Will (23:03):
denial. A Grief Hill?

Tanner (23:06):
No of no drugs. Grief from no drugs. Okay. Yeah. Who's
the who's the plug in town?
Shit. Yeah, the night goes off.
With that. I wanted to saywithout a hitch, you guys you
guys rest through the night thesunrises and nothing seems to
happen through the night. Whichis good because no one posted up
the garden. So

Will (23:26):
what are the challenges since Frasier hasn't traveled
with us yet? What's happening isTanner has a random encounter
table that he is rolling a dicefor landing on good stuff if
every time you see a roll ofdice. This is because Frasier is
a newer player he has

Bruce (23:40):
we could have died. Yeah, we need to know. Yeah. So

Fraser (23:43):
it was like he would tour
the weather. I got an idea thathe rolled for the weather. And
then he rolled for whether ornot we encountered somebody and
then he rolled for whether ornot our night went well. And he
has not gotten lucky.

Tanner (23:55):
Oh, I have guys. Yeah. Let's see. I want to
kill you guys. So alright, um,you guys wake up the next
morning. The sun rises. It is alittle overcast today, but not
enough to where it hinders yourtravel. So you continue heading
off towards the west. Is thereany sort of I mean, you had a
campfire conversation. I imagineas you guys travel, you just

(24:17):
keeping a lookout for anyonethat's going to approach you.

Will (24:22):
Yeah, and at this point, I'd be like, Archie, there's
something I need to tell you.

Bruce (24:26):
I am listening.

Will (24:29):
I made a pact with death to get into the bubble. To save
Mark bark and confront Zeke.

Fraser (24:36):
Why did you do that?

Will (24:38):
Ah, I needed to get into the bubble. I didn't know of a
better way. I tried to tell himI didn't have a pin. He didn't
believe me. Or he gave me a pin.
So no, I

Fraser (24:49):
meant why did you need to save me? You don't even know
me?

Will (24:54):
Oh, I like you. As you help, Archie. My best friend and
me You're part of the big wolfbuddies. Brigade brigade. You're
part of a wolf brigade. You havea horse. His name is David.

Fraser (25:16):
He's a good fellow.

Will (25:17):
His name is David. Yes.

Tanner (25:19):
Young David Dell.

Bruce (25:22):
And now he's dead.

Will (25:23):
That was Daniel. Okay, whatever. But I just thought you
should know. Because the warningwas if he calls me I have to do
what he says. I don't know whatthat's going to be.

Bruce (25:36):
probably die.

Will (25:38):
Perhaps. I kind of already died, I think. Or how would my
soul be in this? Don't Don'tapart myself on the chest body.

Fraser (25:50):
Weight. Do you have a human soul in your metal body?

Will (25:54):
Yes.

Fraser (25:57):
Like you were once a real human.

Bruce (25:59):
Yeah.

Will (26:02):
Versus Oh yes, I was.
Jason. And I hold up my cardagain.

Fraser (26:11):
Fascinating.

Will (26:14):
How does die happen? I don't know. And that's what I'm
trying to figure out. Argo does,but he couldn't tell me because
we got swallowed by giant smokethat you've seen now you've
seen,

Fraser (26:26):
like what we saw in Arcus?
Yes. That's what I Where iswhere is he now?

Bruce (26:34):
Well, you know, this summarizes all right, so we get
to all of my black smoke. Hedidn't. He didn't do what he
did. He did.

Will (26:44):
Well, he he started fighting. He started fighting
death so that Archie and myselfcould escape. He said I was too
important to be stuck here. Andtold me to find Cantelli that's,
I guess that's what I'm tryingto do.

Bruce (26:59):
Because Ganzel was an a, quote, fucking thief.

Will (27:04):
Oh, yeah. That's exactly the words out of his mouth,
actually.

Fraser (27:08):
Do you know where to find Cantelli? No. Wow.

Will (27:17):
I'm just hoping to run into him. I suppose I'm asking
everyone. Well, I was untilAugust. That was crazy.

Tanner (27:25):
Six as you think back and like, think about the
memories that you're having andtrying to think of your past.
And even just the recent past,that familiar feeling washes
over you. And kind of that, thatslight headache that persists.
The last time you had a visionas one begins to come over you

(27:47):
once again. This time, as yourvision comes back, you look down
at your hands, and again seethat they are flesh. And you
look at nearby tools and seeyour reflection. You are in the
body of Jason, your former self.
But you realize that you are ina you're in a lab environment.

(28:11):
And as you're looking betweenyour test files, you're not
really able to make out what anyof them say it's not your focus
in this moment. The thing thatyou do end up focusing on is
experimentation notes forexperiment, four to seven,
three. And experiment four toseven three says that there are

(28:36):
two options that you can use toachieve results. The first is to
test it on the same way thatyou've been going about a lot of
your tests, testing them oncadavers, dead specimens, but
you predict that greater resultswill be found. If you test it on

(28:58):
a live specimen. And these livespecimens, you have a couple of
different options. One is theblue one. One is 100% of Willow.
So Google O is on there. That isOption A. Option B is really is
just yet. Just one. Option B isa canary. Option C is a fantasy

(29:22):
chimpanzee. If you guys want tomake up a name for that, you can
go for it. I'll leave that worldbuilding up to you. Fraser
Fraser, do you want to come upwith a name for fantasy
chimpanzee?

Fraser (29:38):
A fantasy chimpanzee? A shed

Tanner (29:45):
a Chad Chad. The third option is a Chad. And the fourth
option is you've noted down anaddress of a young street girl
that you know no One will miss.
So you have two main options andthen four sub options on
Category B. So again Wow,

Bruce (30:07):
you both are terrible human beings.

Tanner (30:11):
These are your options and you have to pick one. So
first off, I need you to rollany dice on odds you pick option
one on evens you pick option two

Will (30:26):
that is a two

Tanner (30:29):
okay, now I will let you pick on this portion.

Will (30:34):
So those guys are looking old character here how unlikable
do we want to make Jason

Tanner (30:41):
building on this experiment? You know that as you
read down this list, the resultsare greater you will get better
results the closer you get to ahumanoid as you're trying to
think through this you can'trecall you six cannot recall
what this experiment absolutelywas. You just know that the

(31:01):
greatest result would be with ahumanoid but you have the option
here. This I will give you someinsight will have an effect on
things beyond this vision.

Will (31:13):
Well my my internal monologue is telling me that I
should probably just choose thishere. Bird
Oh, but if I if I don't get theresults I'm not going to meet my
quota. And then I'll have totalk to oh, I don't want to talk

(31:37):
to her. Oh boy. We shall Argoalways helps me through this.
Oh. What was that girl's nameagain. It's better that she
doesn't have a name. I know whatI have to do.

Fraser (31:57):
God What a douche.

Tanner (31:59):
You choose option D

Will (32:00):
right? Absolutely choose option D Deez Nuts

Bruce (32:05):
D for douche.

Tanner (32:07):
Okay, you choose this option. You know what you have
to do? The vision begins to fadeand with this last tickle of
realization this one lastconnection before it's gone
completely. You hear the screamsof a young girl and then I need
to give you I need you to giveme a dexterity saving throw

Will (32:30):
a dexterity save Yep. Oh be that's an eight.

Tanner (32:36):
You begin to fall off your horse and end up hitting
face first to the ground whichcompletely brings you out of
your days as you're back in thebody of six and around your
friends.

Will (32:51):
I thought Bravo I heard Oh yeah. Oh maybe we should keep
writing which deck Yes, I'm goodnow. Thank you for your concern.
I

Fraser (33:06):
way way way way way way we're not just gonna gloss of
what just happened. What did yousee?

Will (33:10):
Oh heatstroke I believe overheating you're

Fraser (33:15):
learning that embellishment thing I see.

Will (33:17):
Oh, no. Get back on the rise.

Fraser (33:22):
You're a terrible liar.

Will (33:24):
Yeah, okay. Yeah.

Tanner (33:27):
All right, the three of you continue on for the rest of
the day it ends up in theweather changes a little bit
more. It's sprinkling light rainbefore you start to find it look
for a place to make camp for thenight. Six is abnormally quiet.

(33:49):
Still waters above all else, ascreen that echoes across the
expanse and cold beatingdarkness. It's not the power
emanating from the heart thatcauses our Go Malka to reach
into the golden cage. It's theintrigue of it. It's the
ventricles that connect tonothing. It's the atria, the

(34:10):
atrioventricular valves, thepulmonary veins that all seem to
operate as if this organsupplies some life giving ink to
something. It's the absoluteaudacity of this place of death
to hold this unexplainablemonument of life. The shadow
creatures that climb outside thegreat tower quickly approached

(34:31):
the top. Soon they begin beatingagainst the Crystaline windows
all around Argo. But the soundof splintering glass does not
pull him from his trance. Hemoves his hand closer until he
feels the biting cold on hisfingertips. As the windows
shatter and the shadows pour inour goes hand closes around the

(34:54):
heart. memories begin to rushthrough his mind with every
quickening pulse. See, thump. Achildhood desk covered in
drawings of dragons andsorcerers thump. A young lover
basking in the lazy warmth ofthe summer sun. Thump. A speech

(35:14):
given at a graduation ceremony,diploma in hand, thump, a drink
with a moustache friend after aday of difficult decisions.
Thump. A once in a lifetimediscovery in a palace of white
stone, thump, a pool of crimsonbeneath the throne of Attoria.

(35:37):
Thumb, a spark of magic to sealthe dissipating remnants of a
soul. The shadows viciouslywhirl around our go with each
heartbeat. They crash againstthe gray stone walls. Finally,
they impact with such violentforce that the stone and glass

(35:59):
explode outwards, exposing Argoand the heart to the gray sky of
the drift in an instant deathmaterializes, they stepped
towards Argo as stone and glasscascade into the water far
below. And it over our go nowcaught and I will let you leave

(36:22):
the drift. What is it? It isnothing of consequence to you.
But it is of great importance tome. It is my heart. Why is it
here? Locked away? There aresome answers you need not know.

(36:49):
Please give it to me. Argo looksdown at the black heart and
tightens His grip. And if Idon't, death brings a hand to
their chest. Their fingersgripping into the shadowy cloak.
Then you risk your unbecomingthe renewing of your soul into

(37:13):
pieces so small that they couldnever pass into all else. I
don't think you should bethreatening me right now. Argos
squeezes the heart harder. Hefeels the veins struggle to work
against his grip. It is not afeat I would enact upon you.

(37:41):
Fear the power of this place.
Not me. Death takes anotheruneasy step forward and extends
an open hand.
Please.
Here you wanted me to come hereand retrieve this, didn't you?

(38:04):
You were barred from this place.
That's why you didn't follow me.
That's why I am lonely human candeter you with mortal magic and
escape. Why? Why do you need it?
Argo begins stepping backtowards the nearby edge
overlooking the water below.

(38:25):
Death lurches at Argo but Argois ready. He digs his fingers
into the heart causing blackblood to trickle down his hand.
In the same moment he turns anddives off the edge as he falls
towards the water his mindfocuses on one thought power
over death

Will (38:59):
Well, is it this exciting adjacent flashback and an Argo

Tanner (40:20):
Alright, once again, night two, I'm going to need you
guys to roll them survivalsagain. Now in terms of doing
individual roles, you guys canbasically use help and give each
other advantage if you're ifyou're all just going to let one
person do it. So it's up to you.
I like I like

Fraser (40:41):
everyone, guys when I have another who can find the
best camera

Will (40:46):
two plus three and I say guys, it's definitely right here
and it's, it's literally it'sliterally on rocks.

Fraser (40:54):
All that shit spot.
Here's a pretty good one.
I got a tin.
Okay, just even.

Bruce (41:00):
Yeah, I feel it last time it was proven I'm not very good
at this. So I'm just gonna letthem take care of it. Okay, so

Tanner (41:06):
yes, I was points. Six points out a pretty rocky
segment that if you try and layout your bed rolls, it would be
very uncomfortable. Mark barkfind something moderately better
once again at no cover butaccess to water for the horses a
little bit. So you guys are ableto set up you don't really have
a place to keep you coveredthroughout this plane. So you

(41:28):
know the fire could berelatively easily spotted.
I'll get out I'llannounce the option this time.
Anybody looking out anybody? Oh,and I don't think for sure

Will (41:40):
I do not sleep. So yeah, sentry mode.

Bruce (41:45):
I douse the fire before we go to sleep. All right.

Tanner (41:49):
You make sure that the embers are out. The only light
that's being cast around is fromsix his eyes as he keeps an eye
on the flowing grasses aroundyou.
Oh boy. Eventually, we hit thetable. Eventually, six, you hear

(42:09):
something off in the distance?
It sounds like it sounds likemusic. Okay, so how far away are
we talking?
You can go ahead and rollperception to see you can.

Will (42:35):
Nat 20

Tanner (42:37):
Wow, very, very nice on a very plus inconsequential
roll. All right.

Will (42:44):
I just love that too. I don't ever you know, kid you

Tanner (42:47):
you think that it's probably about 400 yards away
from you. And at this point ifyou kind of look off in that
direction. You can see theflickering of fire light.

Will (42:57):
I use my binocular eyes.

Tanner (43:00):
No

Bruce (43:02):
he's done with your shit.
Just

Fraser (43:05):
know.

Will (43:06):
He doesn't even tone it anymore. No No buts. Just know.

Fraser (43:12):
Mark barks eyes open quickly as he awakens from his
trance hearing the sound of thedistance and says
six. Did you hear that?

Tanner (43:19):
Oh yeah, cuz you just go into trance do Yeah, he

Will (43:21):
does. Yes, I did hear it.
It is. It is exactly 400 yardsaway. 432 exactly if I'm being
exact.

Fraser (43:34):
That is oddly specific and a great skill. Should we
wake Archie?

Will (43:40):
Ooh, how sneaky Are you?

Fraser (43:44):
I've been known to be a sneaky fellow. When I need to
be.

Will (43:49):
I'm also very sneaky.

Fraser (43:51):
I doubt that.

Will (43:55):
You know, that's probably

Fraser (43:57):
all right. How about this, your eyes would probably
give away your position in thedarkness. I have dark vision.
I'll go scout and see what's

Will (44:07):
okay. You know the password right? The secret word?
Alcohol. Correct. Just yell it Ican hear you. Gotcha. Gotcha.

Tanner (44:23):
So, you're gonna go out to scout the disturbance off in
the distance.

Will (44:28):
I'll, I'll wake or G at this point. And to say, Archie,
Mark bark is going to scout thatmusic. Do you hear the music?

Fraser (44:43):
Mee Mee Mee Mee Mee Mee Mee Mee

Will (44:44):
man, you're such a heavy sleeper. I'm envious. I wonder
what it's like to sleep. Iforgotten.

Tanner (44:52):
Creepy. All right, Mark bark. I need a stealth roll from
you as you attempt to sneak upon this and disturbance this
music and I'm good

Will (45:03):
Nat 20 nat 20 nat 20 nat 20 Oh, that's

Fraser (45:06):
an eight plus three.

Tanner (45:08):
Okay 11 So you you begin to walk towards this disturbance
you're able to follow it both bysound and by seeing the fire
lights in the distance. At thispoint the night is clear the
rain that was happening earlierin the evening has dissipated.

(45:28):
And you can see the clear starsin the sky your approach and
crouched down to try and get tothe level of the grass and
you'll eventually see fivefigures you can't quite make out
what they are but they It seemsstrange dancing around a large

(45:51):
fire. They are singing andplaying instruments. flutes and
small drums and dancing aroundseems like they're trying to
they're currently in the processof making up some some song. It
is in the common tongue so youare able to understand you know
their silly rhymes and thingsthat they're trying to make. But

(46:13):
as you're approaching I need youto go ahead and roll a wisdom
saving throw for me. Oh shit

Fraser (46:24):
it's a 14

Tanner (46:27):
Okay, at the camp six.
Your light attempts to rouseArchie gross. What? Rounds
rounds rounds

Bruce (46:42):
I stopped you my dick.
Wow

Tanner (46:49):
that's not non switch.
Okay. To reduce you it's it'sbeen probably five minutes. And
you have not heard anything backfrom Mark Mark.

Will (47:02):
Archie. Kind of kind of shake Archie. Alright. We may
have a small issue. Divinesmall. Mark bark went to
investigate that over there withthe singing is the singing so
going on?

Tanner (47:21):
Yeah, you can hear it very lightly.

Bruce (47:24):
Why do neither one of you just leave enough alone? Then we
wouldn't be in this fuckingposition. He says he sits up
like the undertaker.

Will (47:35):
Well, I didn't want a we thought maybe it was a danger.
He's been gone for about fiveminutes. I'm starting to get
worried that something'shappened.

Bruce (47:48):
All right. I'm gonna get my sayings.

Will (47:50):
I'll lead the way. Or maybe I should stay behind you.
Are you? Are you sneaky Archie?
We don't typically do sneakguess we'll find out.

Tanner (47:59):
Okay. I don't know why I'm whispering the two of you
leave the horses in your othergear that you wouldn't carry
with you behind and begin makingyour way over to towards the
singing. So go ahead and rollstealth six. It's going to be a
disadvantage for you because ofyour armor.

Will (48:15):
Oh, I'm in medium armor.

Tanner (48:17):
Yes, you are. What type of media mama Are you in? Scale
male that gives youdisadvantage. Damn. And

Fraser (48:23):
you're also made of metal so

Will (48:25):
yeah, I feel like I should just have natural disadvantage
anyways,

Tanner (48:29):
but I could give that I really like it.

Will (48:31):
Yeah. Nicky boy,

Tanner (48:36):
you said he didn't say scale right? I did a double the
only that is this. Yeah,

Will (48:40):
the only thing the only thing that I'm going to switch
my armor to is heavier armor. Soyeah, yeah. All right, first
one's a 14 plus zero. Second oneis a 15 plus zero 14.

Tanner (48:52):
Very nice. Okay. And Archie

Bruce (48:57):
23. Wow. Okay,

Tanner (48:58):
very nice. All right, the two of you begin to approach
and at this point, you can startto see glimpses of figures in
shadows as they dance around thefire nearby. What you see is six
figures. A few of them have abit of an odd shape, but they
are all humanoid. And they areall dancing and singing and

(49:20):
playing instruments around thefire. As your approach, I need
you to roll wisdom saving 14

Will (49:31):
That's a 3.69.

Tanner (49:35):
Okay, the two of you are entranced by the music and you
stop you're sneaking as you getcloser and closer feeling the
rhythm as they're building thatsong. Build up inside you and
you're just you're just into it.
You start moving with the beat,and you eventually catch up to
everyone at the fire what yousee. First off you notice Mark

(49:57):
Mark, Mark Mark, how do youdance in a bit of sort of wild
trance?

Fraser (50:05):
Oh in a very very sloppy like, imagine a sea drunken
sailor kind of shimmying his wayaround the poop deck.

Tanner (50:14):
Oh so 100% How Captain Jack Sparrow just walks.

Fraser (50:18):
Oh sure, yeah, okay, that's pretty good. Yeah, yeah
just like how he Sasha yeahsession.

Tanner (50:25):
So you see that the the next things you guys notice, are
for Seders that are playinginstruments, just marching
around this fire singing,knocking back these jugs of
alcohol and one human female whois dressed in plain robes who is
just dancing along with themsinging along and passing the

(50:49):
drinks around to everyone. Markbarks and she went up here
first. I need you to go aheadand give me a constitution
saving throw as you knock backsome of this alcohol

Fraser (51:01):
Ooh, that's a one

Tanner (51:04):
wow, okay. What happens for you? I have noted Alright,
that'll have some sort of effectyou can feel the alcohol wash
and you it's very strong. And itstarts to take hold you can
definitely feel good in thismoment. liquid courage going
through you.

Fraser (51:23):
Have I noticed six and Archie Walker.

Tanner (51:26):
What you've noticed finally is them coming in to the
rhythm and dancing around.
Everyone welcomes them in thesaders do and they begin passing
around the drinks.

Fraser (51:36):
Six Archie, I thought you'd never make it to the
party. Welcome.

Will (51:43):
Mark bar. This is great.
Music.

Fraser (51:48):
Archie I've never seen you so loose

Bruce (51:50):
Archie's just grumpily shimmying. Very grumble ation.
All right.

Fraser (51:59):
Yeah, he's dancing, but he hates it.

Tanner (52:00):
The drink jug is passed around. The Seders drink it the
woman hands it over to you guys.
So I need everyone to give me aconstitution saving throw with
this one.

Bruce (52:11):
I took the floor germaphobe so I don't I have a
12

Will (52:21):
Oh my god.
I rolled a one TKO by party.

Bruce (52:31):
Gotta have high constitution. 17

Tanner (52:33):
Oh, nice. Okay. All right. Mark bark and six. Mark
Mark, you don't seem to feel anymore effects of this wash over
you. It's still a good groove.
You're keeping that buzz withthis next bit of drink? Six.
Even though you're a Warforgedyou can feel the alcohol take
effect. It is loosening you offyou have you feel like you could

(52:56):
you could go out and you couldkick a bull in it could kick you
back and you'd be fine. I don'tknow why that's what I went
with. But you know what I'mgoing for?

Will (53:06):
Yeah, that is great.

Tanner (53:09):
It's a little bit more than a buzz. At this point. The
the Seder is finally kind ofhave a song put together and you
can hear it being sung. They'vegot at least the first verse.
And the first verse goes Oh,whoa, the world feels vast and
wicked to those without themirth of Seder born of hoof and

(53:32):
horn, and blessed with lengthand girth, and they all just
laugh and loud and the drinksget passed around again. It's
good so I need you guys to rollanother constitution saving girl
please.

Fraser (53:46):
Jesus. were three or four Wow Who is?

Will (53:57):
Or two time to be drunk.

Tanner (54:00):
I want to get Archie.

Bruce (54:01):
A tan at a 10

Tanner (54:05):
oh A 10 a 10 Okay, one zero. Yeah. All right, Archie,
this alcohol is not taking ahuge effect on you what it has
done is it's it's given you thecourage you're familiar with the
courage all the booze you'vebeen around and running. Be like
yeah, this is this is the pocketthis is the pocket you want to
stay in that will that will makeyou feel like you can accomplish

(54:29):
anything and give you thecourage to go through with it.
But you know if you push muchfarther beyond this it's it's
super diminishing returns allright. Um, so after this round,
the Seder start up again withthe next part of their song.
They sing. Oh, whoa, the worldfeels vast and wicked, and yet
we danced till dawn to see thestars that burn so far fall

(54:52):
crashing to the lawn. And atthis point, no chuckles because
there's no dick pun. as well itwasn't even upon they're just
straight up

Will (55:05):
somewhat their girth Yeah,

Tanner (55:07):
I'm funny and clever

Will (55:10):
tenor almost.

Tanner (55:11):
So without without the interruption of the laughing
there they go through with thenext verse. Oh whoa the world
feels vast in Wicked, but now weseek the truth of some small kin
that dwells within the homewithout a roof. And at this
point, the drinks go aroundanother time. So everyone, go
ahead and give me give me thoseconstitution saving throw,

Will (55:33):
come on, not oh two.

Fraser (55:37):
We're both gonna get 20 00 17 plus 290. Very nice.

Bruce (55:42):
14,

Tanner (55:43):
eight plus 311 11. Okay.
All right, everyone, but six,you stay in the same sort of
state of abbreviation. As youwere in before the alcohol
doesn't take too much effect onyou and you're just enjoying
your time. Six, however, you arevastly approaching, being unable

(56:06):
to really operate your limbscorrectly. You're so drunk,
you're flailing around, and youtry and sing along with this.
But your speech is slurred. Andthen the saders sing the last
verse of the song. And now webring the anthem sing all ye
lowly and wicked, the stars arewrong. So sing along doubt in

(56:30):
the dark spur thicket. And theytake another swig of their jug
and all four of them pass out.
The woman looking at you three,and at the Seder is on the
ground, just looking veryconfused, trying to keep the
JUGS from falling over and thealcohol from spinning. At this

(56:52):
point you you you threebasically are no longer
entranced by the music andyou're aware of how drunk you
actually are. Archie, you havedisadvantage on persuasion and
deception and advantage againstbeing frightened. Mark bark you
have disadvantage on savingthrows, and you can't dash or

(57:13):
move more than 10 feet in thesame direction. So your drunk
ass has to zigzag. You also havethe same effects as Archie but
disadvantage on ability checks.
And go ahead and roll me one ofyour hit die. So I believe you
have a D eight.
I got a four add 14temporary HP. i Sorry, add four

(57:33):
temporary HP. To what to yourtotal HP. So whatever your HP is
at 40 Okay.

Fraser (57:45):
Okay, it's for HP for being drunk or HP for being
drunk.
Six words like that in reallife.

Tanner (57:50):
Yeah, it'd be nice huh?
Six year along with all thestatus effects that Mark bark
has, you have disadvantage onattack rolls and you have damage
resistance. So you everresistance to physical damage?
Dope?
Yep.

Will (58:07):
I'll roll my d8

Tanner (58:10):
five. Alright, cool. Add five to your HP. So the three of
you are pretty, at least fromtipsy to wasted your time
standing amongst for pestoutsider who are lying on the
ground and one rather confusedlooking woman who is trying to
pick up the alcohol jugs. Whatare you doing?

Will (58:34):
Are two or two? Oh, my bar. I think I think I will give
these guys a coin. So what hedoes is he takes out a coin from
his from the bag the given tohim by St. Sebastian, and walks
over to the saders and puts iton a Seder. Okay, while it's

(58:58):
sleeping,

Tanner (58:59):
you put it in a Seders palm and he closes up his hand
and the coin does not seem totarnish. There's a little a
little chime on the wind. As hegrasps it.

Will (59:13):
I really leaned down and tried to whisper in his ear.
Take good care of the coin.

Tanner (59:21):
Okay. Eat and respond.
Seders for anyone who doesn'tknow kind of shorter humanoids
with horns and herbs.

Will (59:32):
Gumball scene line which in the water yeah,

Tanner (59:35):
Mister Mister.

Will (59:37):
I forgot his name Mr. MC

Tanner (59:38):
buckles. I can't remember

Will (59:40):
his name. Yeah, okay. Mr.

sure. I didn't really leave withany of my gear.

Bruce (01:01:34):

Fraser (01:01:39):
out as Archie's pulling his collar.

Will (01:01:41):
Oh, ours. Because well, kind of

Bruce (01:01:45):
hey, yeah, you don't have to let me grab your collar. I
mean, you can do whatever youwant to do. So don't expect.

Fraser (01:01:50):
I'm too I'm too fucked up to resist it.

Tanner (01:01:53):
Okay, okay. All right.

Bruce (01:01:56):
hate being the designated hiker.

Tanner (01:02:00):
Okay, so you guys, head back begin to head back. Though
the woman does call out to you.
Mark bark in says it'll be agood time. I promise. And I need
you to give me a wisdom savingthrow.

Will (01:02:19):
Oh shit oh, no,

Fraser (01:02:27):
it's a three.
Zero,

Tanner (01:02:30):
you. You really, really, really want to go with her.

Fraser (01:02:34):
I look over at Archie wait until he's kind of fiddling
with six trying to keep him upright? And he loosens its grip
on my collar. And Iget a phone call from me and I
SWAT himand run like one of those like,
like, like I'm thinking about. Irun

Will (01:02:52):
in a zigzag pattern. And

Fraser (01:02:56):
I stumbled through the forest in a zigzag pattern as
quickly as my drunken legs cantake me all right,

Bruce (01:03:02):
Archie Huff's RT Huff's.
He goes, because he's drunk. Hisinhibitions are lowered.
Alright, I've had a fuckingknock on this and he takes her
fucking hand axe and he justwings it

Fraser (01:03:13):
at the woman Holy shit.
Okay

Bruce (01:03:20):
okay, 14,

Tanner (01:03:21):
okay, you throw this and because of your shouting, it
startles her. She sees the axefly towards her and ducks
underneath it and just runs offinto the distance into the
night.

Will (01:03:36):
problems often does that. alleviate a mark
barks thing?

Fraser (01:03:41):
God dammit, Archie that was that. That could have been
my girlfriend.

Bruce (01:03:51):
Okay, mate and women and veils is no way to get a girl.
You How did I lose weight? Whydo I only have the vibe? I just
had my other one in my hand

Fraser (01:04:02):
but you have to miss she was kind of cute.

Will (01:04:07):
Modbar girlfriend

Fraser (01:04:12):
you have a girlfriend?

Will (01:04:19):
Yeah, is

Fraser (01:04:21):
her name? Yeah, Archie.
Clever joke.

Will (01:04:27):
I really like pansy. She got metal legs like me.

Tanner (01:04:34):
The three of you settled down for rest and get yourself
set up in your drunken state.
I'm going to say while you cango into your normal, you know
sort of trance state, bothMorbark and six, it is going to
be greatly hindered currently.

(01:04:56):
So the three of you rest up Youprepare for the rest of the
night.

Bruce (01:05:01):
Oh, Archie is not going back to sleep. He's Oh, he's

Tanner (01:05:03):
up. Okay. All right.
Yeah.

Bruce (01:05:05):
Is that okay? He's already he's up. He's angry and
he's up. He's angry and he'shalf lit, but he's not lit
enough to pass out. So like,we're just, we're just he's just
fuming, right fucking get soangry.

Tanner (01:05:18):
This will impose for the next day a point of exhaustion
on you.

Bruce (01:05:22):
Yeah, that's fine. I've dealt with that before. Okay.
All right.

Fraser (01:05:26):
A technical question real quick. What is the point of
exhaustion do

Tanner (01:05:29):
so is that all about point of exhaustion

Bruce (01:05:32):
is make you bad at everything.

Fraser (01:05:34):
Oh, okay.

Tanner (01:05:35):
So exhaustion in FFIV.
Disadvantage on all abilitychecks, for the first level of
exhaustion is not good. Alright,so yeah, you guys are going into
the night.
60 you rest?

Will (01:05:55):
Yeah, I don't think Sentinel should work. If I'm
being honest. Like, you alreadycompleted powers down.

Tanner (01:06:02):
You are one point away from being passed out from that
little drinking bit. All right.
Yeah. So you you go into sleepmode. Mark bark. The poll is
great. You are it's been about45 minutes since you've you've
been pulled away from from theparty.
From the Seders. What do you do?

Fraser (01:06:26):
So aren't you still awake at this point with me?
Right? Yep.

Tanner (01:06:30):
Okay, you can tell you're starting to sober up
some. You know that so isArchie. But you are still not
fully sober. Oh, Archie, all

Fraser (01:06:43):
of this. All of this drink really has got the the old
bladder quite tense. I'm gonnago relieve myself.

Will (01:06:53):
Alright. You go do that.
Okay.

Fraser (01:06:57):
And I get up and I walk I follow him.
All right. Some privacy. Please.
Have you know manners?

Will (01:07:07):
You can turn around. Okay.

Fraser (01:07:12):
I turned around and kind of like you know, do a little
little shimmy. Like I'm kind ofworking with it or something.
Not too much. Not playing withmyself. But you know,

Bruce (01:07:21):
now look mod bog. I'm perfectly sure you'll take a
will take care of yourself. ButI had a brother. His name was
Bob and we got to lit in thefucking bushes one time. And he
passed out and fell in the flockand river and he died. I'm not
leaving you alone. Okay.

Fraser (01:07:37):
I can't I can't go if you're talking. Could you
actually NP shy? Could you justjust turn and face the other
direction for me, please?

Tanner (01:07:46):
Yeah, do that. Okay, thank you. Thank you.

Fraser (01:07:49):
I look back over my shoulder just to make sure he is
actually turned around.
And a hall s okay.

Bruce (01:07:56):
I hear him I would imagine

Tanner (01:07:58):
in his in his drunken state. It's not. It's not
completely subtle.

Bruce (01:08:04):
I'm just gonna do

Will (01:08:08):
my Rizal take a shape. I follow him.

Bruce (01:08:11):
Okay. Which is easy, because my walking speed is
faster than

Fraser (01:08:14):
him. Yeah, and I'm very much still running in crescent
moon shape. Tracks.

Tanner (01:08:19):
Um, you guys make it back over towards the Seder
party zone. And when you dowhat's what's each of your HPs
please, is 4842. Okay, whathappens since we'll go with the
lowest first is Mark barkimmediately falls down. After

(01:08:46):
you hear this. Whispering on thewind. So you fall down and you
are asleep? Unconscious. Youfeel it kind of affect you
Archie, but you do not fallasleep from it. You remain
standing as Mark Mark collapsesto the ground.

Bruce (01:09:08):
Hey, pick Mark BARDA.
Okay. And I go back to Cam.
Okay. by dashing, okay. Whichmeans that I'm moving at 80 feet
per second. Okay, so make surewe're clear that I'm getting the
fuck out. You're

Tanner (01:09:24):
gonna get the hell out of dodge. I got it. Yeah. Did I
hear that? Did

Bruce (01:09:27):
I hear the whispering?
Oh, yes. Okay, yeah, I'm moving.
I'm moving Latin camp.

Tanner (01:09:32):
You make it back to Kansas at my lord down. The moon
is high in the sky. And it isdark. Otherwise, there are
shadows moving across the landjust because of the way the
grasses are moving in the treesnearby.

Bruce (01:09:48):
You said I'm sober, right? Yes, you were so I close
my eyes. And I stopped using myvision to sense

Tanner (01:09:53):
okay. All right. How do you what do you do with Mark
bark when you get back to thecamp?

Bruce (01:10:00):
I set him next to six.
All right,

Tanner (01:10:02):
it is just you posted up. Next you're dead Ember fire.
Syncing off into the distance.
The way in which you hurt.

Bruce (01:10:13):
My axe is John. Awesome.

Tanner (01:10:15):
All right, cool. Go ahead. What is your passive
perception please? 18 Okay, allright. You don't sense anything
approaching but you do get ashiver up your spine Mark bark,
you begin to have terriblevisions nightmares. And though

(01:10:40):
you're asleep under magicaleffects you are receiving no
benefits of the rest from this.
I need you to roll one D 10. Forme that's a 10 Okay. You Your
hit point maximum is reduced by10. And your temporary hit

(01:11:03):
points are gone. So whateveryour hit point maximum is
subtract 10 That was what 40something.

Fraser (01:11:12):
So that's like a permanent change or that's just
for now.

Will (01:11:17):
Okay, that is a for now change.

Tanner (01:11:20):
Archie as you're standing here for the next hour.
You don't notice anything otherthan Mark bark behind you.
Shifting. Sweating. You canobviously tell he's having
nightmares behind you. Andanother hour passes. And another
under your watch. Andeventually, from the east. The
Sun begins peeking up over thesky. And everyone else wakes up

(01:11:45):
in the warmth of a beautifulsunrise.

Bruce (01:11:54):
And I'm just standing there like a fucking Sentinel.
Ah you guys wake away you guyswake up to me just standing
there was my XL. My eyes closedlike a fucking psychopath.

Will (01:12:07):
I don't know how this is possible. But I feel like shit.

Bruce (01:12:12):
Because you got trash last night.

Fraser (01:12:14):
Do you drink a lot of alcohol? Where did you even

Will (01:12:17):
put it? Oh, yeah. Right here and open my belly and pull
it bog bla bla bla I pull uppull my release valve at the
bottom and piss. I had a penis.
Okay. Wow. Not for that though.
I don't know. I have. I haveorganic parts. They need some.

(01:12:42):
They can do stuff with that. Idon't really need to drink. But
it was fun. I had fun. I think Idid the robot. Start mimicking
the moves I was doing lastnight. Give me a Performance
Checklist to you don't do itwell. Okay. To be expected. Or

(01:13:04):
to just turn around you guys.

Bruce (01:13:05):
Have you both away? You almost died last night.

Fraser (01:13:09):
What? I almost died of being love stricken with the
woman you dragged me away from?

Bruce (01:13:16):
Probably wanting a woman?
I don't know what it was but Iknow what

Fraser (01:13:19):
you are a cock block.

Bruce (01:13:21):
That keeps you alive. I'm alright, well

Will (01:13:24):
being that Archie. You saved me yet again. I owe you so
much. I don't remember beingsaved

Bruce (01:13:32):
seems to be a common trope that some of us go
wandering off making baddecisions while other others are
not conscious.

Will (01:13:41):
Yeah, I do remember briefly. Marburg you have a
girlfriend. I would have had agirlfriend. Well, do get them
there. What

Bruce (01:13:52):
you two have a lot more in common than I thought. You
both did make terrible fuckingart decisions when I'm asleep.
Huh, hustling my axe. I did hackup. We got places to be. I did
fall for a girl on a puppy.
Archie is grumpy. She was very

Will (01:14:07):
pretty. Oh, yeah. She was dead though. Huh? Yeah.

Bruce (01:14:13):
That fucking a lot in common there. This one was
fucking dead too. I don't knowwhat it was. I just don't just
assume it was probably some kindof supernatural entity.

Will (01:14:22):
I mean, it definitely was when he had a roll of

Fraser (01:14:23):
wisdom siren or something. I

Will (01:14:25):
don't know. Archie's good.
He has really good intentions.
It probably wasn't a girl.
Probably. Was she hot?

Fraser (01:14:37):
She was kind of cute.

Tanner (01:14:38):
She was very plain.

Will (01:14:41):
What do they call those

Bruce (01:14:42):
very plain,

Will (01:14:44):
drunk goggles. Drunk vision. beer goggles.

Tanner (01:14:48):
All right. You guys, you guys get up on your horses. Six
and Mark bark. You guys are hungover. It's not gonna have any
lasting effects. As you youhydrate and prepare but it is it
is just very uncomfortable withevery clop of a hoof. As you
ride, Archie, you, you suffer nolasting effects of the alcohol

(01:15:12):
from last night. Other than theexhaustion from staying up all
night. So you do have a point ofexhaustion on you and will have
disadvantage on

Will (01:15:21):
all stability roles,

Tanner (01:15:24):
split disability roles, which is fun. So you continue on
to the west, eventually passingby this very brambly and sort of
dark old forest that exists tothe north. It looks like a pain
in the ass to cross and you seea dwarf hacking away at it out

(01:15:50):
front just grumbling as you guyspass by. Stop.

Will (01:15:56):
What? What was the woods?
What was the woods they said wewould have to pass through or go
by Darkspear thicket. Ah, yes, Ibelieve that's dark for ticket.
Maybe we should say hello.

Bruce (01:16:11):
Last time we said hello.
We all drank through the nightand now I'm fucking tired.

Will (01:16:16):
Oh, yes, you do look tired. I do want to get to this
place that we're going that onespot that will grumble grumble,
grumble tired grumble

Bruce (01:16:26):
grumble tire. Yeah,

Fraser (01:16:27):
kind of feeling like shit. I say we just keep going.

Tanner (01:16:31):
I yeah, I agree. Leave the dwarf to his work. Fair
enough. All right, you guyscontinue west eventually.
The day is Blustery and it is abit slower going because the
wind is coming pretty fast fromthe West but you're able to make

(01:16:54):
pretty good time despite it andend up finding a decent spot for
the night to settle down intoit's well protected you've got
water for the horses and enoughfood to get yourself through the
night. So you are all wellrested after this. The next
morning you wake up with thesign and you no longer feel the
effects of the alcohol and yourexhaustion is gone

Bruce (01:17:20):
so much fucking better.

Will (01:17:23):
Does Marburg still have minus 10 HP? He does Yep.

Bruce (01:17:28):
Oh rough like his character probably would notice
that he's feeling weaker

Tanner (01:17:32):
but yeah Mark Mark you you do awake noticing that you
still feel drained.

Fraser (01:17:39):
Yeah, yeah, he didn't say he was feeling like shit
sir.

Will (01:17:41):
Yeah. All right, it's

Fraser (01:17:43):
not feeling too hot.

Tanner (01:17:44):
So you guys continue on for your last day of travel. The
grasslands here the plane is alittle less wild the the grasses
and so tall and you're makingyour way to the west and
eventually off in the distanceyou see a pretty large forest
and as you get closer and closeryou notice a small town perched

(01:18:06):
right up on the other side of ariver on the edge of this forest
and you can hear the sounds oflumber being chopped down the
felling of trees some shaking asthey fall down in the forest and
bird scattering off in thedistance but you're you're
making your way towards thistown that you assume is Dresden
mill.

Bruce (01:18:26):
I thought you're gonna say you come up on a small tour
of chopping wood and

Fraser (01:18:30):
yeah we're just gonna do a whole you know whole repeats
the end you find yourself in thecourtroom in the gallery of a
courtroom or away with

Tanner (01:18:40):
all right you guys just continue on into the town
onwards and upwardsall right yeah. Cool you guys
you guys continue on towards thetown eventually you come up to
the river you do what any of youknow what river This is a mark
bark you might if you if youwant to if you want to think you

(01:19:02):
know and roll for it you can

Fraser (01:19:06):
oh I definitely know what river This is okay, I go
ahead go ahead give me a

Tanner (01:19:12):
it's an intelligence this do history or survival
whichever one you're better at.
I'll get I'll grant that'sbetter. It's survival. Yeah,
great. That's probably negativeso let you know about the
watershed. Oh, that's a net 20Wow. Okay, now this this is the
iron side river you know, thisis how they get quite a few

(01:19:33):
things down into

Will (01:19:38):
the capital city of Velia.

Tanner (01:19:42):
It's comes directly down from iron Dale. Of course,
Archie you know Irondale butthis, this is how they get both.
A lot of a lot of their goodsdown into into Velia And towards
the hook swarm Palace. The bigthing that's on here that you're

(01:20:03):
going into drawers and mill foris crowns wood, which is a very
hardy, very tough tree, verytough, very tough type of wood.
And you know that they wouldfloat it down from here to get
it into the city. But nearby isa very well maintained bridge
that comes from a road that goesnorth to south leads down into

(01:20:25):
the main city. So it goescrossed. But this is a is a very
humble town. Most of the housesare small, but well made, you
can see the logs the crowns woodthat are used there, this dark
sort of burled wood that areused for the main foundations of
most of the buildings here.
There's a few shops and storesbut most of it is really just to

(01:20:45):
feed the workers and supply youknow tools. You got your
blacksmith and a couple otherthings. The there's a temple in
town. You can see it has theshield crest of Roderick on it.
But everything here is veryutilitarian. It is all just to
service the crowns wood, whichis also the name of the forest

(01:21:10):
here. And yeah, so you guys walkinto town and what are you
looking for?

Will (01:21:18):
Crowns wood. Okay, yeah, you see it is right there. The
edge of town I guess I guess thefirst order of business guys.
Just so we're all on the samepage. We're trying to find to
last Jabra.

Fraser (01:21:37):
Tallest,

Will (01:21:38):
tallest, tallest. Java job. So

Bruce (01:21:44):
why are you so bad with names?

Tanner (01:21:46):
Well, I don't know. I do my best. No, but it's like every
name. I get yours. Right are TWhat about mine? Marguerite you.
Bark Bark?

Bruce (01:22:02):
Something so how can I use maybes only maybe it's
there's like, you know, youstore things in crates. Maybe
his head's only got so muchstorage.

Will (01:22:11):
I do have a limited amount of memory. Well, now that's
cannon.

Fraser (01:22:17):
RAM is one of the easiest upgrades.

Will (01:22:20):
Ah, that's a goat.

Bruce (01:22:22):
There you just go steal one from the

Tanner (01:22:24):
shaders that passed down.

Will (01:22:27):
Oh, no, I had the opportunity. I was too busy
doing the robot. Do it again.
Give me a performance check.
Please. Ooh, 70 minus one. Thattwo that I got was minus one. So
it was real bad. Oh, yeah. Okay,so this is the 60s.

Tanner (01:22:41):
This is way better. It's actually, you know, even though
you're not professional dance.
It looks like robot do.

Will (01:22:49):
I was hungover when I was doing the last one. Yeah.

Tanner (01:22:51):
Well, you were drunk. So So you were hungover? That's
right. Yeah. Okay. All right.
Cool. All right. So you guys areyou guys are in town. What do
you what are you looking for?

Bruce (01:22:59):
I assume there's got to be somewhere to stay or
something. Right? Yep,

Tanner (01:23:02):
there is an in in town.
You could see it pretty clearlyas you enter from the bridge. It
is just simple. It's a twostorey building made of the same
wood as everything else here.
But with like a plastered frontof this kind of light colored
clay on that you would probablythink would come from the nearby
river. The sign above it says

Will (01:23:27):
sawing wood which is a metaphor for sleeping. Yeah,
someone logs sawing

Tanner (01:23:34):
logs. It's solid. Yeah.
Okay, then it's calling sawing.
Sawing logs.

Will (01:23:37):
Yeah. That's pretty good.
That's clever. I hate puns.

Bruce (01:23:44):
But it seems to be the only end we have as an option so
he's probably gonna check inthere.

Will (01:23:47):
I agree. Well, let's get rooms we only need to stay with
Archie. But other than that, Iwill ask a roundabout Jabra,
Java, Java, just as informationit is pretty it is. Sunset it is
sun the sun is setting.
Beautiful sunset. Oh, is itactually Java? No. Tala, Sc,

Fraser (01:24:12):
Java, Java, I get an order to L L. ISK, J a BBA

Tanner (01:24:20):
Tollisk Xhaba, Java,

Fraser (01:24:25):
Java, Java, Java on a plain J shell. The J or not.

Will (01:24:31):
So it's an x H. file.

Bruce (01:24:34):
You guys think he wants Han Solo?

Tanner (01:24:36):
Nice. Nice. Good.

Bruce (01:24:39):
I think he's gonna freezes and Carbonite.

Tanner (01:24:42):
I like did you guys draw parallels that I don't even
think of when I make thesenames. It's very

Will (01:24:45):
fun. Your name to Java how like, the hood? Java with Java C
sharp, Java. X eight put thewrong and fastest on the wrong
syllable job Java the set up ofthis thought, Okay, please stop.
Okay. Hello. Hola Hola. Hola

Tanner (01:25:03):
started it. Alright, so you guys, you guys make your way
to the in song logs.
How do you open the door?

Bruce (01:25:11):
I punch it. Okay.

Fraser (01:25:13):
We wait I have a new idea. I have a new idea.
I reached out Turn the doorknoband open the door

Tanner (01:25:20):
like a sane person. Man it opens right up. It's
beautiful. See how easy that is?
That involves turning motions.

Fraser (01:25:33):
Which is way simpler than just striking something.

Bruce (01:25:37):
Oh, man. Have you seen me start things? Pretty simple.

Fraser (01:25:42):
Yeah, people who are good at things do make it look
easy.

Will (01:25:47):
Exactly. There's there's this

Tanner (01:25:50):
child just staring up at you because you've turned the
door handle and you justlistening to your conversation
as you talk about how to opendoors.

Will (01:25:59):
This is how you do it. I punched the door right the child
doors you roll a dexterity safe.
Wait, hold on. Oh,

Tanner (01:26:10):
he definitely moves out of the way of the door as you as
you punch it open the rest ofthe way like a kid.

Will (01:26:20):
