Hey! They're girlfriends!
Hello everyone, and welcome to Songwoven, Ira Brin Dawnbreak.

(00:44):
Namaste.
Deep breath, everyone.
Deep breath.
Now, we are going to go around the table and introduce ourselves, starting with Jenny Sherard,
and my advice is to ensure that no harm or turbulence comes to anyone within this room,

(01:07):
is that we do everything nice and calm.
Hi, I'm Jenny, and I won't be calm.
I refuse to be calm, because I'm playing Velora Avaleya.
Harsh energy.

(01:29):
I will have to counterbalance you throughout this entire Odeal.
Next up on the line.
Next victim, please.
Hi!
Hi!

(01:50):
Hello.
My name and purpose?
What's your purpose?
I don't know!
That's a really big question.
That's a really big question.
What is my purpose?
You know, I came to the conclusion a while ago that sometimes your purpose is just to
live.
No, just to live.

(02:11):
For me.
Yeah.
For you.
I'm playing Lucia.
I'm really concerned by this intro.
It's giving cult, it's giving brainwash.
What is your name?
We are from Emma Yelling, it's so gay!
So gay too!
It's so gay!
It's so gay!
You know, Jimmy being like, everyone calm.

(02:32):
My name is Emma?
I already said my name, and I'm playing Lucia.
Hello everyone, I'm Tim Notran, welcome to Iron Man Dawnbreak.
Hello, welcome back!
Oh my gosh, it's October!
Take this episode.
The leaves are coming in, the pumpkins are a-growing.
What is the whiplash?
Pumpkin season is here, and people are cutting shit up, it's awesome!

(02:58):
Hope everyone's having an awesome, cooler time, because it's been so hot.
Over here.
Not here.
Yeah, not over there.
It's been cold?
It's gotten a little cold.
It's been pretty cool.
Cool.
Not cold.
It's been nice out, I've been cool.
Not cold, it's been nice out, I've been spending all my breaks outside at work.

(03:24):
Very nice.
Cucumber temperature.
Cucumber temperature?
Yeah, cool.
As a cucumber.
My god, Tim.
I'm still a little traumatized by that intro, I'm not gonna lie.
Yeah.
It was scary.
We're gonna have to get past this.
It felt a little cult-y.
You're gonna have to get past this.
It felt a little, it was giving cults, it was giving, what's the-

(03:46):
It was giving hope, it was giving calm, it was giving-
There's no hope!
There's no hope!
It was giving follow what I say.
Not very demure.
Follow my-
Not very demure, not very mindful.
Did you?
I didn't know this, but Scientologists get you by offering you a free personality test,
and that shit would work on me, because I love personality tests.

(04:07):
Me too.
Damn, yeah, I wanna be evaluated, damn it.
Yeah, damn it!
What do the Scientologists think of me?
What do they think?
I'm like, a personality test?
Yeah, what am I?
And they're like, you're now a Scientologist, surprise!
You're a Scientologist!
That's what they get you!
Hey!
Hey!
What's your address?
I'll send you some notes.

(04:30):
This cult shit's so easy.
Like I, listen, listen, that's, Christmas is coming, my biggest fear is cults.
Oh, it's not-
It's not-
It's a very Scientology Christmas.
It's not happening, okay.
Wait, should that be our next Christmas one-shot?

(04:51):
We have the same setting, but Scientology setting?
You know, the crazy thing about all of this is that, you know in the beginning of time,
Glowr came down from the heavens and put the people here.
I watched, my Scientology knowledge comes entirely from South Park.

(05:16):
No!
JT, not that kind of research!
Our brave mod is gonna do field research with the Scientology.
Please don't.
Please do not.
Please don't.
I'll just watch documentaries, you don't have to, I'll do the heavy work.
Please, please don't.
If you are gonna go in, I do wanna go in with you.

(05:39):
You want me to do a Scientology inspired campaign?
Here at Songwulven, we do our research before we go into shit.
I'm scared.
I'm scared.
But-
No, don't, no JT, don't do it during your lunch break.
Literally the next building down, JT?

(06:02):
I'm jealous.
Why are you jealous?
I kinda wanna, I kinda wanna, never mind, you know what, we'll talk later JT.
But, what we do have on our plates at the moment is-
Dindindindindindee.
A5B.

(06:24):
A5B.
Kind of Dindindindee.
Kind of Dindindindee.
Kind of Dindindindee.
It's Indie adjacent.
Ajudicant.
Ajudicant.
But what we definitely do have in front of us is a Titty RPG.
Titty RPG.
Titty RPG.
Titty RPG.
It could be progressing that way.

(06:46):
Also, on the side note of Titty RPG, Happy Bi-Visibility Months to all.
Ooh, yep.
I'm alive, I'm right here.
This stream is so queer.
Woo!
Speaking of, perhaps, some bi-ness, some queerness going on, why don't we do a recap?
Girlfriends!

(07:07):
Girlfriends!
There are a lot of girlfriends!
We met the hottest girls in school last time.
We met the hottest girls in school!
I'm just saying you haven't met all the girls yet.
And that's all that matters, so I guess we can start in the open.
We met so many girls!
So last time, the commoners got moved out of their dorms because there is mold inside.

(07:30):
And Lucia is rooming with someone in the little housing district.
She's rooming with a third year from the Golden Moose House named Samara Eppert.
I forget, she's an older woman!
Yeah, she's a third year, and she's a bodyguard to the leader of that house.
And she is tall and hot.
She's hot, she's soft, but she's everything I want.

(07:57):
She's stoic, but you know that she's the softest, sweetest.
If a duckling hurt its foot...
She was so gentle, yeah.
Yes, if a duckling rolled over its little webbed foot, she would do everything in her power to ensure that duckling got safely to the pond with a snack.
That's the vibe.
At the same time, she could snap my characters back in half.

(08:19):
Like a bendy stick.
But you'd like it.
And I'd think her, and I'd like it!
Like a goddamn glow stick!
And I would love it!
Thank you for using me as your trying man.
But not only that...
Another girlfriend.
Meanwhile, Valora was handing out a bunch of cake from her wedding cake-sized cake that her mom gave her as a surprise.

(08:46):
And met Saga Dondarius, who is the leader of the Black Boar's House in a second year.
And super cool, super relaxed.
Literally girlfriends.
They're actual girlfriends.
It is the most queer interaction, the most sapphic interaction this stream has ever experienced, was between those two characters.

(09:07):
I don't know, I still think the Samara one might have...
She put the hand on the wall behind you.
Fair butt, butt, butt!
As in, sapphic interactions are all about subtlety.
And this is trouble, you and that trouble.
It's all about, mm-mm, devious flirting.
She called me trouble as a nickname.

(09:29):
This is the most passionate recap we've had.
And then some other stuff happened, I guess.
Oh, there was this really, really dope showdown.
Where Jenny and Tim and their incredible TTRPG goodness, Todd Cadwallader, can suck a dick.
He's a little bitch, and he's mean.

(09:51):
And Valora said, I'ma put your ass in your place.
And she was able to very respectfully and kindly cut his shit out.
So he definitely did not respect it at all.
I just embarrassed him, though.
But yeah, we did that because it hasn't been said outright in-game,

(10:16):
but there seems to be reasons that the nobles at least know about,
is that he shoved the new leader of the Blue Wolves, Vesper.
Yeah, and there's some weird stereotypes going on there, too.
Because there's some rising tensions between their region,
which is the northern region of the kingdom, Aurora.

(10:38):
But yeah, it hasn't been spelled out in-game yet, I think.
But I know, because I played future games, so I know exactly what this conflict is about.
So I'm sure it'll come out very soon.
And yeah.
So I was like, yeah, don't mess with them.
And he was like, you don't tell me what to do.

(10:59):
And he tried to grab me and didn't work.
And then I teleported him into the air and he got pissed off.
And then he tried to take over the suit.
Subgolmet, guys!
Oh my gosh!
Subgolmet!
Thank you for the gift, Suggs.
I wonder who our anonymous gifter could be.
I wonder who it is.

(11:23):
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, guys.
I didn't think we'd actually get it, so I didn't actually plan anything if we did.
What do we do?
What do we do?
What happens?
He's a jolly good fellow.
He's a jolly good fellow.
You burst out into song.

(11:44):
Any song, every time.
Now everyone kisses.
I don't know what happens.
It's time to mark off my dating sim bingo card, please.
Yes, yes, yes.
Also, bear traps have been stepped on and the school bell has been rung.
Oh my god, that's right.
I ran into a random man who made me a little nervous who was just leaving out a lot of bear traps.

(12:08):
His name was Bell.
Oh, that's right, Bell.
Bell with the bear traps.
Also, it's very funny.
Chat is like, this is the only episode Emma remembered.
I wonder why.
And you're not wrong.
You're not wrong.
Looking at Samara's muscles like, I can do, I can read a whole page on this.

(12:32):
I made so many clips from the Samara section and I could have just done the whole thing because Emma's reactions are so funny.
Like, you'd already had a full meltdown before she'd even said anything to you.
And then the second she said something to you, you just were like, oh.
Also, also, like Dragmire said, like, big and small, the biggest and the smallest.

(13:00):
I would ship David and Goliath.
I would ship David and Goliath.
What if David and Goliath were lesbians?
But what if David and Goliath were lesbians?
Fine, I'll fucking write, I'll do it right.
I think, I think, I think our, oh, we can't, it's copyrighted.

(13:22):
I'm like, we can't have good luck babe play during the show, can we?
It's copyrighted.
I can sing it.
H-O-T-T-O-G-O, you can take us hard to go.
I've never heard this song before.
Chaperone, Chaperone to me.
Chaperone, Chaperone.
These are new words.

(13:44):
What do we do when we hit our sub goal?
What happens normally with other streams?
Copyright claim going through to us.
We did get a copyright claim on our last episode, but only in the prequel music.
Yeah, and it's a thing that we've used for a while, so weird.
And you know, we pay for our music, so it's kind of annoying.

(14:05):
Weird, weird.
But you know.
We do things right.
But we changed that song, and speaking of songs, we have our own song now because.
We do have our own song.
Shay Sherard.
We have our own song.
We're going to get it on YouTube.
Yeah, we have to make a really cool intro.
Oh, Kate.

(14:27):
Kate?
Oh, Kate.
Kate, our beloved artist.
Who has.
Make our animatic.
Made all of our character art on stream, and she is absolutely amazing and we love her to absolute death.
I'm going to commission her to draw all of our girlfriends now, too.
If if she was standing between us, she would be in immediate danger because we would squeeze her to death.

(14:52):
Poor, poor Welsh woman.
She has no hope.
She'll be she'll be she'll be within vicinity of us, and she's gonna be like, I'm in danger.
Do you think Kate can sense that we're talking about her right now in her dreams?
That she's probably sleeping because of time zones.
I think she I think yeah, I think she just feels the love and she's like, oh, no, not them.

(15:15):
Shoo, shoo, shoo, shoo, go away, go away with me.
It's like, all my dreamcatchers are spoiled because of you guys.
Yeah, lots happened last episode.
I love your keyboard.
Wow.
Thanks.
I was just holding it.
I was just holding it because I wanted something to hold in my hands.

(15:36):
But now I do my journal, my journal.
Yeah, exactly.
I just need something to do with Carbohydrate.
My favorite color.
I guess I'll also say I got a new keyboard just because Emma showed up.
It's so much fucking heavier than my previous keyboard.
I like the pink keys, though.
It's aluminum.
So it's very heavy.
Oh, and you have an aluminum one.

(15:57):
Is it clicky clacky?
Oh, it could crack.
It is.
That's very satisfying to my ears.
Mine is a...
ASMR stream time.
Oh, sorry, not aluminum, aluminum as the...
Aluminium.
I actually used to say it was weird.
At first when he was like, yes, it's aluminum, I'm like, what?

(16:19):
These are words.
You made that up.
I don't know.
Is that a real word?
You made that up.
You made that word?
That sounds unreal.
Unreal.
So as we're going to work together, our perceptions of reality need to line up.
Don't make up shit.
Don't make up shit.
All right.
Tim ASMR when...
I don't know if you know what you're asking for, Dragfire.
Did you not watch the beginning of the stream?

(16:43):
No, that was a scary meditation app intro.
And everyone, with that said, we're going to go ahead and jump into yet another
session of our Brynn Dawnbreak.
Now it's like a jazz radio station.

(17:04):
Oh, I should bring out the jazz intro again.
The jazz intro.
You're tuning in.
I watched...
I'll just say...
I watched that back the other day.
I have no memory of doing that.
I was watching a stranger delete the show.
Because I remember when that was happening, I was just shooting off at the hip.

(17:26):
It was just fucking insane.
Wait, chat.
Chat goes, I didn't like that at all.
And then chat goes, I will pay you to never do that again.
I don't see the payment.
Where are the money at?
Where are the money at?
Okay.
Focusing.

(17:47):
Focusing.
Guys, we're serious.
We're in our sub goal.
We have to be serious now.
All right.
We come back in, in the...
It says, in the throes of a busy mess hall, fresh off of the encounter of Todd Catwalliner.

(18:09):
Now, now we're just going to go ahead and lift off exactly where we...
Where we last left off.
The two of you in this sort of like...
In this sort of mild victory lab with the looks of approval of people within the mess hall.

(18:30):
As the morning continues and you find yourself well inside of the...
Well inside of the hustle and bustle of the morning.
I just...they're messing with the tokens on the map in front of me.
Sorry, I forgot you can see that.

(18:54):
Making her dance.
So, you hear from...there's just zooming around everywhere, getting shapes.
Okay, I can't be distracted.
So, geez, at some point the sort of like...

(19:16):
The buzz of the mess hall, which has now become absolutely full.
Sites of like...the site in front of you is dotted with people of many uniforms in their different houses.
As more and more people are starting to get properly prepared for the academic year to come.

(19:37):
The buzz is cut through as you see a man...
A man led by a few...they just did like a thousand laps around the map.
Sorry, I should stop.
A young man walks in wearing...seemingly like an apron, a workshop outfit, heavy thick sort of brown gloves, goggles placed atop his forehead.

(20:14):
Flanked behind him is another individual in silver armor, whom you've seen to be around campus security.
And you hear...
Hey everyone, got a quick announcement.
It says...Mirage arenas are now open.

(20:35):
It says...it says don't ever come at once. They're only open to third years.
And he just goes...oh, and the training college seems open at the bottom.
Thank you.
And it just walks out. You see people at that announcement are like...get up and they start running.

(20:58):
People push each other, people get tripped. It's like nope, I'm getting there first.
She turns to Velora.
We're not third years, but should we...everyone's running, I'm confused. Should we run?
Well, you know, I do think it'd be a good idea for us to get...I mean, I kind of want to spar with you.
Because I haven't seen what you can do.

(21:20):
Yeah, yeah, let's spar! I'm ready to do that. I'm so pumped. I know how to punch people in the face.
It's okay. I just want to know where you're at.
Okay. I don't have anything.
Because I don't want to tell you to do anything tomorrow that you can't do yet, you know, or like...or hold you back when you could do more and stuff.

(21:42):
Listen, I'm here to protect you, right? So you tell me, you give me what to do. I will study it, I will learn it.
I might not have cash, but I've got heart and spirit. And I will make sure that that is accounted for and that people are going to be...
people are going to be intimidated, but also interested in us.
Because they want a nice intimidation, a friendly intimidation.

(22:06):
Well, let's...I think...I think you'll do really good. But let's just see where we're at right now.
Yeah, let's do that! Let's do that.
Alright.
Spring's up.
Spring...springing up, the two of you, beginning to mount off on your own business, have disconnected with this sort of rabble today and begin to be guided towards where the...

(22:39):
towards where all the...where all the hubba bubba's going on.
Pick up Phantom who was waiting outside the mess hall for us the whole time.
He has obstinately refused food the whole time people have offered him.
Aww, Phantom.
As you are...as you make your way down the entirety of this mountain, you do eventually see it in front of you.

(23:06):
A sort of...it's a sort of like a wealth of structures in front of you. You see a sort of amphitheater-like...sort of like arena.
Where you do see like people are setting up this sort of like dummies and like racks with weapons and like...there's a huge chalkboard where they're writing down like sword tournaments and dates and such.

(23:32):
And beyond that, there is a large circular structure that is very reminiscent of like a coliseum of sorts, directly in front of you, where you see the wealth of people are going there in droves.
You...as you approach, you sort of get the sign that like, oh, this is a very organized thing. People can get their own private sort of training fields and this and that.

(24:08):
But you see people are awfully excited about the Mirage training fields, the Mirage arenas.
As you...as you eventually get to your turn, the lion has moved fast. You see a man, the young man standing in front of you, a man of fairly large...fairly large build.

(24:37):
Sort of like jet black hair and sort of like a ponytail. His...you see his shirt's like halfway down. He's wearing a white dress shirt, which is showing off his toned, very toned, very powerful arms.
I feel like this is for Dragmire.
Here it is. Here he is. Short stubble. Oh, actually, we can share.

(25:12):
Short stubble. He does have like, like, like kind of like slight bags under his eyes. But you see he makes the effort to like, to like give the respect to you. His eyes widen as you come up.
And he just goes, names?
Velora Avaleya.

(25:33):
Lucia, retainer of Velora Avaleya.
I'm just gonna let them know, Lucia.
That's fine.
He says, oh, leader retainer.
He, you see he pats the clipboard with the pen for a second before he just goes,
Well, since you're leader retainer, you do have permissions to go towards, to take up one of the Mirage Ruiners if you want.

(26:03):
Oh, and what are those?
They're your training fields, but they're amped up by the latest magical talents provided here by Erebron.
You can summon, you can basically summon illusions of enemies and whatnot to practice against.

(26:25):
Oh, cool. Yeah, let's do that.
All right. I'll write you down.
I really do not recommend fighting the dragon.
There's a what?
Yes.
And he just goes, he goes, what are the illusion mages will be joining you shortly?

(26:48):
And he points away for you to go.
Wait, it's turned super Laura.
This is an illusion of a dragon and like refraining it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, so it'd be a one.
It's a real one.
Because why would there be a real one, right?
Thank you.

(27:11):
He flexes his butt.
I'm just kidding.
The training field is that way.
I've always wanted to fight a dragon, though.
Not today, not today, not today.
How big are they?
I mean, how big are she looks?
Phantom.
How many phantoms is a dragon?

(27:33):
Oh, like probably like 100.
Like just like, you know, like a full grown dragon.
Yeah, like they're huge.
They're massive, like many building sizes.
That's what I've always heard.
I think we should quit.
I don't know if we'll have to fight a dragon.

(27:55):
It's just, you know, it's probably just like a fun thing for the illusion stuff.
It's just okay, okay, okay.
It'd be super cool.
Yeah, yeah, no, it'd be really cool.
Because that's what you do at war school.
You fight creatures that are buildings tall.
Eventually, with a nervous energy sort of like inside you, you reach the sort of letter numbered place that you're supposed to enter.

(28:26):
You enter into this roofless sort of like training ground.
You see that there is like turf in front of you, a pavilion with like multiple weapons of like multiple different like calibers and make.

(28:49):
There is plenty of space here. I would say it's like legitimately like a hundred by one hundred.
No illusion made yet though, it seems.
Well, so you were learning how to use a dagger, but you also know magic.

(29:11):
Yeah, I definitely have magic.
That's what I've got.
That's what I do.
I played a little bit with the crossbow.
It was just when my dad and I would go like kind of like looking for, you know, little snacks here and there like a little squirrel.
That's great.
Yeah, so I can do that.
I've just never shot a person, but that's okay.

(29:33):
I mean, shooting person, I'm sure is very similar to shooting an animal.
I mean, yeah, more or less.
And you know, here like there's maybe like tons of healers and stuff.
I mean, you're a healer.
Yes, yes, that's true.
That's true.
And I said that my cloak also is supposed to deflect missiles.

(29:58):
So wow, wow, that's wild.
I know, right?
So yeah.
So we're okay.
So what are we doing?
You see that a phantom comes back from the weapons rack going towards you, Lucia.
And he just he has like a weapon in his mouth.
He just drops at your feet a mall, a big two handed hammer.

(30:23):
She doesn't want to look rude.
So she goes, wow, phantom, that's exactly what I wanted.
Thank you so much.
And she goes to pick it up and I think it's a little too heavy.
So she's like, all right, wow.

(30:44):
Awesome.
I'm so pumped.
It's going to be great.
Okay.
Why don't we get well, whatever you what are you most confident with?
She's looking at phantom looks to look for Laura looks to phantom books to Valora.
It's this one.
It's definitely this one.
Oh, well, he gives you a side look.
Valora.

(31:08):
She's like, um, phantom.
Severn Moby, like, like, go put it back.
Phantom comes over to you and just gently leans up and the weight of the world is lifted off her shoulders and goes to put it back.

(31:31):
Is he so ginger and like, and like making an effort to like straighten it out and everything?
Just a boy.
He's so smart.
Well,
I use a, you know, I usually I usually fight with a glaive, but I know how to use a lot of different pole arms and I also know how to use a crossbow.

(31:58):
Yeah.
Uh, do they have those over there?
Yeah.
Crossbows.
Okay.
So do you just want to do you just want to fight me like anything, anything goes like I, I can hold back a bit, but I just kind of want to see what you can do.
Sure.

(32:19):
Yeah.
Yeah.
Let's let's lock and load.
As she picks up a light crossbow and her hands are shaking and sweating because not only has she never shot a person, now she has to shoot the person she's supposed to protect.
In training Timmy too, do we do this, do we do the thing where you don't spend like your resources?

(32:44):
Yeah.
Okay.
And we've done Iriprin stuff before.
It's like it recovers after the fight and stuff.
Got it, got it, got it, got it.
Um, so is it like an actual like are they blunted or are they actual like bolt like sharp bolts?
They are training weapons.
Okay.
They are foolproof.
They are meant to be, like here is a school full of some dumb kids sometimes and we do not want them, we want to minimize the risk of them piercing an organ.

(33:18):
And then aliving each other before graduation.
Okay, so she will go take her.
How far can she go?
She'll go, um, this range so I'll just take a hike back there.
Wherever you want to start, we can start wherever.
Um, I won't ride Phantom right now.

(33:39):
Phantom, you can stay.
So I'll give it a shot.
How far is crossbow, what's their range again?
I have a heavy crossbow on my sheet.
My heavy crossbow is 100, 100 without disadvantage.
But, light crossbow is 80, 80 feet, 80 feet, 320.

(34:01):
Oh, okay, 80 feet.
Okay, so she'll go and I'm sure it's, you said it's large, like I'll go as far as I can, like 60, 60, 50, is that far enough?
Yeah, certainly.
Okay, cool.
Um, so, uh, she'll go, okay.
Here I come.

(34:22):
She moves up a crossbow.
Just shoot at her.
This is terrifying.
This is a nightmare.
This is going to be awful.
You guys come ahead and just roll initiative then.
I'm letting her go first because I can tell she's really, really nervous.
I don't want to like shake her.

(34:44):
So are we rolling initiative or?
Okay, we'll have you roll your attack first.
Okay, roll my attack, but it's 11.
It's 11.
11 would miss.
She goes, it's just a warm up, just a warm up.
No, no, no, you haven't done it in a while.
You said that.
Yeah, exactly, right.
You're welcome to use your magic if you're more comfortable with that too.

(35:05):
Yeah, sure, sure, I can do everything.
It's fine.
She loads another.
So do you want to say that crossbow would just like, it just kind of.
That is way below my AC.
It's stuck into like the freaking, you know, wood paneling.

(35:31):
Yes, you kind of like fumble for your next bolt.
Okay, all right.
So secondly, your turn now, right Jenny?
All right.
I will not take the dash action, but I will start to move towards her.
So I move 40 feet towards her.
She comes closer.

(35:52):
She goes, why are you moving?
We're sparring, remember?
If you just want to practice shooting, it's fine.
We could just get targets out.
No, no, it's okay, it's fine, it's fine.
Are you sure?
Yeah, I'm fine.
She couldn't get close to me.

(36:15):
Phantom covers his ears.
Is that the rest of your turn?
That's my turn.
I just use my movement.
Lucia panics the fuck, because yet again, she's just shooting tiny animals that normally don't come after her.
So she uses her 30 feet to sprint back and go, okay, okay, come on, come on, this is it.

(36:40):
This is the shot.
All right, here we go.
And lights up the shot.
Just shoot again.
That one hits.
21, 21.
21 hits.
Flora, do you want to describe how this one in particular hits you?

(37:05):
No, I think she actually isn't really expecting.
Like she is trying not to go too fast.
She's very speedy and she did not run as far up as she could have to her.
And so she's a little surprised it hits.
But that's it.
She goes, yeah, we're done.
We're done.

(37:26):
Well, we know.
I mean, I wouldn't be out yet.
I mean, we could be.
We could be done.
You're not done yet.
Oh, crap.
And she goes to ready another bolt.
Okay.
For my turn, I'm going to dash action to get within 10 feet of her.

(37:48):
That's my whole turn.
She approaches you so fast.
It's like a horror movie.
She is very, very fast.
Why are you moving so quickly?
This is inhuman.
I mean, I'm very human.
I know you are.
Oh, you're Aeon Mark.

(38:09):
Crap.
I think.
Now that she's got a little confidence under her belt, she's like, okay, I could I could fire that right.
She's going to shove her crossbow back onto her back and go, okay, well, let me at least try to make this hard for you.
And she's going to guiding bolt.

(38:36):
Okay.
You are.
I'm in 10 feet, but my weapon is reach.
So you do have disadvantage.
Oh, okay.
Never mind.
Good point.
Attack.
Oh, that's right.
Oh, shit.
Never mind.
Good point.
Good point.
Just letting you know, because you can probably tell.

(38:59):
I don't know if we see again, but you know, maybe no, no, absolutely fucking can't.
Oh, shit.
What should she do?
Actually, J.K., we're going to scratch that.
Okay.
Bonus action.
She's like, okay, I've never done this before, but we've got to pull out all the stats.

(39:24):
Okay.
And she's going to bonus action spiritual weapon.
And it's going to be a large apple tree like the one that they saw in the in the grove.
The grove of a dunes temple.
So I will cast that then see.

(39:51):
And I'll.
Yeah.
For my attack.
All I have are.
I only have cross bolts.
Yeah.
And that's going to be a big attack on the same turn.
Right.
Can it?
Okay.
Then I'll I'll have that swing.
That swing.
18 misses.

(40:12):
Oh, okay.
So like one of the it's either like one of the limbs of the apple tree, you know, tries
to knock you and it completely misses, goes overhead.
And do you want to use your action?
The problem is that she could slap you.

(40:38):
Do it.
Do it.
You hear a voice.
You're the wind.
Do it.
The wind slap her.
You can take the dodge action as an action.
So I have to say, am I allowed to I'm allowed to dodge.
For some reason, that was that was only a rogue thing.
I don't know if it's an A5B, but it is maybe the can be.

(41:01):
But you can dodge as an action.
You can dodge as an action.
Okay.
Point.
I'll do that.
I'll dodge Bob and weave baby.
All right.
Then I am going to I even check my maneuvers.
I don't think she wants to go all out there right now.
Thinking that she needs to hold back.

(41:27):
But just to get a feel for it, I'm going to take.
No, I'm not.
Well, no, I'm not.
Okay.
So disadvantage.
I'm going to attack you with my blade.
14.
Miss.
And then I'm going to do my pole arm savant bonus action with the backside of it.

(41:54):
That's my bonus action.
Jesus.
Oh, shit.
20 total.
Oh, yeah.
It does hit.
Okay.
You take two.
Legending damage.
Point.
Because it's just the back of the weapon.
So she misses with the with the front and then just turns it around and hits.
Are you okay?
Good.

(42:15):
I think that gives her a little bit of a nosebleed.
And now she's anime style like.
I was really.
It's.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Your nose is like.
She's never gotten hit before.
She's never had to do combat.
So this is like her final stand.

(42:38):
Okay.
So two points.
Awesome.
Okay, cool.
That's my trip.
I'm going to do my bonus action.
I think she's going to spiritual weapon it.
Yeah.
It just happens automatically, though, right?
You can do it as your bonus action can make an attack.
Right.
It's not in your spell slot.
You still have a spell up.
Right.

(42:59):
Sorry, guys.
I haven't played a cleric in a very long time.
I know clerics.
They're my favorite.
Jenny knows all the tanks.
So Apple Tree is going to swing at you again.
21 does hit.
Nice.
That will be casting at.
Yes.

(43:20):
Level two.
And points of Apple damage.
Apples are.
Oh, does it?
Yeah.
Oh, no.
No, no.
Good job.
Good job.
Good job.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
And for her action.

(43:41):
Wait, it's concentration, though, right?
No, it's not.
It's not.
It feels like a concentration spell and it's not.
That's so OP.
Yeah.
It was awesome.
But not in Baldur's Gate 3.
It's not.
It's not very good in Baldur's Gate 3.
But in this, it's good.
Okay.
I just said that to make Timmy mad.
That's it.
Because I go, eh.

(44:04):
I think she automatically, reactively goes to cast Healing Word on you.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Don't.
Oh, sorry.
No, no, no, no, no.
Right, right, right.
And instead, she's going to go, okay, well, here I go.
And she, oh my god.

(44:26):
That just reminded me of a fucking Fire Emblem thing.
You know how they do the character select?
Here I go.
I will get the victory.
I will get the victory.
I am Ferdinand von Eyre.
I've got this.
Right, exactly.
I think she goes to aim her crossbolt, but because there's so much magic swirling in

(44:50):
the air, and yet again, her adrenaline is pumping because she's never actually had to
fight with anyone, I think the bolt on her crossbow bolt is going to turn into a guiding
bolt instead.
Disadvantage unless you back up.
Oh, good point.
I don't think she knows to do that yet.
Yep.
But they will be at disadvantage for sure.

(45:13):
Let me go.
Yeah.
15 misses.
15 is a miss.
And yeah, I think she just with the glaive just kind of hooks the crossbow with the hook
on the glaive, just enough to push it off the way and move where you cast the spell.

(45:37):
Oh!
All right.
That's great, Valora.
You're really good at this.
She's like, grr.
You're doing really good too, actually.
We're doing a great job.
It's a good team.
And since she got pretty hurt last time, she is going to use, if it's at the end of your
turn, if you want to use your movement.
That's it.
OK.
She's locked in with you.
I'm going to use my dangerous strikes maneuver, which costs one action point.

(46:04):
Do I have my points?
Yes, I do.
They're there.
OK.
One exertion point.
It just increases my crit range by one.
Now that I have normal, it's just a normal attack.
And I rolled a crit because of that.
I'm going to go die now.

(46:26):
And so you take 25.
I'm down.
I rolled max on it.
I'm down.
But you might also be charmed because that's my effect I get.
That was pretty cool.
I'm fucking wiped out.
I had 19 hit points.

(46:47):
She was feeling the hurt, so she took her stance really firmly and went straight in
with that.
And then after realizing that that was a lot, she's like, OK, are you OK?
Are you OK?
He's fast out.
He has knocked cold.

(47:11):
She had 19 hit points left.
I will say a lot of times when we do it, you can do it for fun.
But when we do training ones, we don't actually knock people too unconscious.
Oh, OK, got it, got it.
It is kind of funny, though, if she's unconscious.
I think it's funny.
I think we see this intense moment where they're locked, right?
Glaive versus Crossbow, and you've got a little blood, and she's like, give it all you got.

(47:37):
Knocked out, down.
OK, I need to.
Phantom comes close.
He has a medical kit that he got from the emergency.
He has a first aid kit.
He's like the Saint Bernard's.
Ocsoon Phantom, Ocsoon Phantom, Benzvelk.

(47:59):
Good, good, good.
And she starts helping.
How many am I back up?
You can basically be functionally back to full if you wish.
Back to full, awesome.
I think she...
Whoa!

(48:20):
Sorry, I didn't mean to hit you that hard.
Am I dead?
No, no, no.
Have the gods claimed my soul?
Laura?
Did I do good?
You did really, really good.
I'm sorry, I hit you really hard there.
Laura, Laura.
He puts a hand on you.
Are you sitting next to her?

(48:41):
Yeah.
Hand on your shoulder.
That was incredible!
As she grabs you and pulls you closer.
I've never felt so alive!
I guess you really are cut out for this then, so I was going to have to tear you.
Is that what training is like?
Let's go again.
Come on!
As she holds her soul.
Are you sure you're ready yet?

(49:02):
I'm ready.
Oh, wow.
Hello!
You hear?
An amazing show to both of you.
Oh, um...
Wait, wait, wait.
Hang on.
You see from the Observer's Arena...
You see a pallid young adult individual.
Pallid young adult individual.
Sort of like...

(49:24):
You recognize immediately, Lucia, the robes they are wearing.
It is like...
Oh.
You've seen them around.
These robes are hung up with your...
You've seen these kind of robes in Arnolda's closet before, but basically they were some kind of rank.
Something that he was before.

(49:46):
So you can tell this person is a ministry cloth.
They have...
They have seraline hair that's tied up and neat braids around and a nice bun sitting on top.
And very slender figure, kind eyes and a really relaxed smile.

(50:09):
They're evil.
Bright blue eyes.
I know it. They're evil.
Ministry, it's implied.
And they...
You see that they just clap very politely.
And they go...
That was a very fine show.

(50:31):
From the both of you.
What would be the title I would use with this bishop? What would it be?
What would the priest... What would I call them?
Aspirant.
Aspirant. Yeah, go for it, Jenny.
This person is young, it seems.
Oh, thanks.
Are you the mage?

(50:53):
Oh, my apologies, no.
Oh.
Well, I'm Valora.
Hello, Aspirant.
And she bows, curtsies awkward, very uncomfortable, and goes, I apologize.
I was merely practicing our combat.

(51:15):
Not that I'll do a lot of it, but you never know.
Especially in these...
You see that their eyes kind of drift up almost admiringly to the spiritual weapon apple tree.
And smiles at that.
It's still there? It didn't go away when I...
Yeah, it doesn't go away when you go unconscious.
Really?
Yeah, it sticks around.

(51:36):
Oh.
Yes.
It says, the tomb.
And they just go, I too have the Mother of Spring within my heart.
Is she your goddess?

(51:58):
They just bring their hands together, just goes, it is comforting to have another one who follows underneath her here.
Oh, my God, wait.
So she's...I don't think she's ever met, right?
There's not many who have followed her, right?
Yeah.
What's your name?
Oh.
It says, apologies for my rudeness. It says, my name is Solanasi Beausoleil.

(52:27):
Solanasi Beausoleil. That's a big name.
Yeah, I typed it out.
It goes, but please, if it is a mouthful, you can call me Sol.
I think Lucia is so pumped, and she sprints up to them and just goes, wow, wow, okay, you worship with your tomb?

(52:56):
That's wonderful. I haven't met...there's not a lot of us. There's not a lot of us.
And so, is your spiritual weapon? Does that look like that?
She points to the tree. Did you know that there...did you worship at her altar the other day? Did you see?
Yes.
She kind of...she said hi to me.
Of course.
She's full on like...
This person is like meeting all your energy, like a mom receiving an excited child.

(53:19):
Yes.
They just go, I know who you are, Lucia. I am a student and observer underneath head executor Orier Verluin.
Oh.
You know Orier?
Yes. I'm one of her observers.
Wait, what? You're a student here?

(53:41):
Yes, I'm a third year here.
Wow, that's so cool.
Are you in our house?
They nod with a smile.
And then she's going to, you know, bring Ballora up and go, well, this is your house, so I'll let you do the intro and she'll step back.

(54:04):
Oh, well.
That's alright. You can call me Ballora, like I said. It's nice to meet you.
And they just go, I hope I'm not intruding on anything. I was just informed of...I was informed greatly of your presences and was told to go make acquaintances.

(54:31):
I'm glad you did.
Yeah, it's really nice to meet you. It's nice to meet more people from our house and that you guys have something in common. That's awesome.
Lucia peeks out from behind Ballora and goes, we're trying to make alliances.
Would you like to join us?

(54:52):
No.
We're training?
Oh, my apologies. I do have...I was just told to make acquaintances, but I do have other errands to attend to, but it's been an absolute honor meeting the both of you.
Because Lucia, you see they reach their hand out towards yours and their hands are so soft as they gently cup around your hand.

(55:19):
Two hands clasp around one.
There's something about this person that just feels like air, that just feels like spring right in front of you.
And they just go, I swear, I will protect you with everything that I have.

(55:49):
She looks confused, she goes, that's...I'm the right sister to her.
I said Ballora.
Now you know what it feels like.
Oh, it's weird.
You are Lucia, are you not?
Yeah, but no, no, no, I'm the retainer. I am her retainer. She's our house leader.

(56:15):
Well, of course, but you are also under significant consideration.
Am I? Looks at Ballora.
Yeah. You're my second in command.
You are the retainer, and you are under considerable protection by the very Ministry.

(56:39):
Oh, right. Oh, yes, yes, thank you. Thank you so much. Yes. Yes, thank you. I can use all the protection I need.
If you didn't see back there.
Not many who walk underneath the tree, the apple tree of a dune, come to this academy because the very thought of war goes against maintaining youth.

(57:06):
But perhaps, but perhaps you have come here with the same thought as I, that we are here to help others, help others enjoy the fruit that fall from the tree to maintain others youths.
Yeah, you know, you bring up a great point like youth and war, a concept that sends a lot of young people off to their dooms and death doesn't really, you know, integrate a lot, but that's something we can table for another day.

(57:39):
It is something that happens. Yes.
Nevermind. I'm gonna say that.
They just go.
But please be rest assured that both of you are under considerable, considerable protection.

(58:01):
Suppose if you are very special individuals.
While I appreciate that.
Um, it just goes. And if it is anything.
This.
I have significant combat experience underneath the head executor.

(58:25):
I have seen my fair share of skirmishes and I have, and I have slain my fair share of heretics.
Heretics.
Nods.
Smiles.
Heretics.

(58:47):
Looking.
Emma is looking up the exact definition because.
Because of wood.
Contrary.
Person who's uncool.

(59:08):
She goes.
Oh, are there.
Like.
There are other.
Of course.
There are many who would.
Not only stray, but speak.

(59:29):
Of the grave.
Who would cast stones at the names of.
That of the Asatru.
And act violently against the people that the Asatru protects.
Why?
But if the gods.
I wish I was able to tell you.

(59:51):
That is why we're here.
Well, it sounds like you're very experienced, so I look forward to getting to know you better.
Yes.
I should leave you both to your training now.
Thank you, Sol.
Of course.
May you walk in the goddess's light.

(01:00:12):
And may you as well.
Let us pray together sometime.
That would be wonderful.
I love an open air prayer.
I haven't been quite the while with someone else.
It'll be fun.
And then they walk away.

(01:00:34):
Well, that's that's cool.
We might another.
Have another follower of a dude in our class.
Who are these heretics?
Would speak illy of the gods.
They're so ungrateful of them.
Well, I mean.

(01:00:55):
Just speaking is, you know, not really.
Very heretical, in my opinion, I guess it's different to the ministry, but.
You know, people who would.
You know, who would worship perhaps.
Dark gods of other pantheons and.

(01:01:16):
Try to hurt people as a result of their music.
Yeah, I get that.
Now that's really, really what's up.
I'm going to kill you as you see suddenly appearing beside you.
You see a large man with scars on his face.
Mohawk.
He has a Tomahawk and he is approaching.

(01:01:38):
So little girl, get ready to die.
Oh, you're the illusion person then.
I know he was a lucy.
You're not losing.
That's so cool, though.
Oh, my God. You're so creative.
Wait, wait, what is cool?
What?

(01:01:59):
The only thing the only creative thing I'm going to do is I'm going to rearrange your face.
Idiot.
Wait, I thought a loose, loose.
Three majors were supposed to be a lot more.
It moves to attack you.
What the hell?

(01:02:26):
You are struck.
And it genuinely hurts.
It feels like a Tomahawk has gone through your skin.
What the heck is wrong with you?
And she's going to spiritual weapon on the tree branches to whack him in response.
Go ahead.

(01:02:52):
For Timmy's favorite number, 26.
That's my favorite number.
I'm going to kick your ass.
I'm going to kill you.
Just goes back hands.
One of the three just fucking throws an apple right exploding apple.

(01:03:14):
Whopping willow.
Whopping willow.
Not a weeping willow.
Whopping willow.
Okay, go ahead and describe your epic attack that does don't even roll damages.
Don't even roll damage?
Go ahead.

(01:03:37):
Bob, what's the Bob Ross rule?
Every happy tree needs a friend.
Did you see Chad?
I think Lucia is still confusingly like, wait, from what I learned of illusory mages, they can be kind of nerds.
They just kind of sit in the library all day.
And then she gets shot.
She goes, what the heck is wrong with you?

(01:03:59):
And the tree, like the limb back hands him from behind.
You see as the tree back hands him, his neck twists to the back completely around like an owl.
Oh no.
And then he explodes and gore.
You're so strong.

(01:04:22):
She's screaming.
She's screaming.
You are covered in blood and viscerals.
She starts openly weeping.
I don't even want to kill him.
Lucia, it's fake.
It's fake.
It's fake.
It's an illusion.
You didn't actually kill anyone, Lucia.
The head rolls up between your feet.

(01:04:46):
You killed me.
No, no, no, no, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
She's already having a hard time.
She falls to her knees and just big tears.
Studio Ghibli tears are wiping it.
I'm so sorry.
You deserve to live.
The blood and viscera begin to disappear slowly as the body disappears and you're clean.

(01:05:10):
I should have never come to war school.
And then you hear, sorry.
As you look up to see the buff individual who had jot your names down standing at the
gate now.

(01:05:31):
Dragmire's boyfriend is the illusory wizard.
Oh, and thank you for subscribing.
Sending a little gift sub, Dragmire.
Oh, you're crazy.
Dragmire.
Propitizing children is always a 10 out of 10.
You see the buff individual now instead of a clipboard, he's holding a book.

(01:05:55):
And he's wearing, he's wearing like small glasses.
Takes it off.
He just goes, just wanted to simulate a surprise attack.
Do the bodies really do that?
No.

(01:06:16):
Do they die?
Not normally.
Sorry about that.
I don't want to blow anyone up, Valora.
No, you don't have to.
You're a healer, but you're really strong.
But not trying to do that.
Okay.
So don't worry.
I don't even know my own strength.

(01:06:39):
It's like still solving it.
If it makes you feel better, people typically don't explode when they die.
I will be more careful when I use my illusions in the future.
Do the heads roll and talk to you too and make you question every choice you've ever made?
If it affects you enough.

(01:07:00):
Oh no.
No, they don't.
I should be I should be a bit more ginger when it comes to you and your psyche.
They don't.
It's limited to the to the third years for today.
Because of the trauma.
I get the feeling that'd be way too much hazing of all the first years were in here.

(01:07:24):
If you want very fair.
If you want, I can simulate you killing a person for the first time.
So it is easier if it ever happens.
My name is Lance, by the way.
Hello.
Nice to meet you, Lance.
Christ.
You're really creative.
Hello, Lance.

(01:07:47):
Are you a teacher here?
No, I'm a student.
What?
She looks at this person who looks like a grown ass very much older adult man.
The six, seven tall, extremely buff.

(01:08:08):
He's apparently a wizard.
He's a wizard.
He's apparently a wizard.
He's a wizard.
He's a nerd by default.
So, oh, Dragmire, can we share, please?
He just goes.
My name is Lance Redfield.
I am one of the senior members at one of the artificers guild here.

(01:08:31):
I am also one of the chair members of the illusory wizard club.
And I am going to graduate here.
I'm part of the Crimson Griffins.
Oh, nice.
You're super accomplished.

(01:08:52):
That's awesome.
Yeah.
Thanks for that.
It's good training.
I guess I should get used to killing someone in cold blood.
Well, not necessarily in cold blood.
That's what it will have to be.
You can't kill with love.

(01:09:18):
You don't necessarily have to kill anyone at all, Lucia, you know.
I'm not saying that it would never ever possibly come up, but you are a healer.
Sometimes a healer's got to do what a healer's got to do.
She like kind of steps up and, you know, marches over to the tree, puts her hand on her tree, goes, OK, I'm ready for my first kill.

(01:09:47):
You don't have to be.
Maybe not today.
Yeah, maybe not today, Lucia.
She's fully traumatized.
Not something you have to rush into.
And you kind of already did, you know, with the Explodee one.
And you know, that's the worst it's ever going to be.
Lance, have you had to kill someone?
She's just kind of, I'm not sure if you'll allow this to him, but she wants to climb up her illusion tree and just curl into it.

(01:10:12):
He just goes, a lot of people, a lot of first years do tend to ask that.
And then he goes, are you OK?
When he sees you fully curl into the tree.
She's like a little squirrel, like hiding in the branches of the tree.
She's like, well, I just wondered.
Valora, have you ever had to kill anyone?

(01:10:35):
Not a person.
Monsters.
Different.
Different. OK.
Do we have to kill anyone in school?
No, you're not required to.
Sometimes if the circumstances are dire and you you are not expected to kill anyone, but do know that the situations do get.

(01:11:02):
They vary in danger and circumstance.
The classmates die, Valora.
Not that's not a typical thing.
No, I can't say that it's never happened, but it's not.
I like everyone we've met.
Well, that's why we're practicing because we're going to learn how to keep people safe.

(01:11:28):
It's a good point.
You'll slowly climb out of the tree once you make that.
And, you know, I wanted to tell you that, you know, you did a lot better than I expected from the way you had talked about your experience, because.
I mean, I don't know that much about magic, but like you seem to be really good at it.

(01:11:51):
I even though you said you never cast that one before, but I could tell if it had hit me, it would have probably taken me out right there.
See, like this kind of like anime I shine, you know, just like and rosy cheeks as she goes, and she's like right in front of you all of a sudden.

(01:12:12):
Yeah, yeah.
I'm serious.
But like, I think you're really good at this stuff.
I think it might feel a little overwhelming when we get to the mock battle and there's a lot of people around and stuff.
So I think you'll I think you'll hold your own weight really well, though, I think.
I just think if we keep you protected and back, I think we'll have a really, really smooth sailing.

(01:12:41):
And I think you will help us win a lot.
She gives you what she can't even stop herself.
She wraps her arms around you, gives you a big squeak, big tight hug.
I'm going to keep you so, so safe.
Oh, I'm trying to hug back, but you've got my arms.
And then she says, for me, I'm a goblin.

(01:13:06):
That's what goblin approach is.
She goes, she goes, ah!
And she goes to kick it.
Roll to kick.
What would that be?
I don't think I have an unarmed.
Like strength and proficiency?
Yeah, because I don't have an unarmed attack.
Strength zero.

(01:13:27):
Strength.
Let's try to roll that.
So at a nat one, which is she panics, goes to kick it and pulls her hamstring as she lands flat on her fucking back.
Get parried, loser.
Oh no.
I stab it.

(01:13:54):
The crit is gone.
So wait, I'm sorry.
That's cinematic right there.
That's fucking poetry.
It just, it just, it just, it just dead.
It just go, and you see blood starts to come out and then he does, and you see Lance goes, no, no, no, no.

(01:14:17):
And the blood just goes back in the body.
Well, anyways, Lance, you know, I checking on Lucia who just messed up her leg.
Ain't dirt.
I'm like, you know, I know you just got here and this is all really, really, really cool.
And I really want to spend more time here, but maybe, maybe we're done for today.

(01:14:38):
But I appreciate you so much.
You are really good.
Wow.
Well, thank you.
Have you ever come here again?
Have you ever come here again?
I'm typically around four to five.
That's, that's my duty after after school.

(01:15:00):
You can request me if you want.
Oh, I bet you're real popular though.
I have to get in line, huh?
He just kind of shrugs, but I'm right.
I'm definitely right.
Well, maybe get here quick.

(01:15:22):
If you really want, if you really want to see me, we'll just have to do that.
Thanks, Lance.
Of course, you like to farm an ally as she's on her back going from the ground.
Would you like to farm an alliance with us for the mock battle?
We've got to find D'Vorah for that.
Ah, crap.
Her room's right next door to mine, you know.

(01:15:43):
Oh, that's a good idea.
She slowly pulls herself up.
Here, here, here, phantom, phantom, phantom.
Phantom just comes over with a medical kit in his mouth.
I shove her on top of phantom.
Oh, thank you.
Okay.
She kind of flops over like a wet noodle.
That goblin really took it out of me.
You see phantom just kind of like throws the medical bag up.

(01:16:08):
Throws the medical bag up and it lands like directly on your head.
She takes it and she starts like wrapping her leg and finding the icy hot.
And you guys head out.
Yep.

(01:16:30):
And as you guys head out, you hear, you do hear, yeah, you guys better run from me.
You killed him?
Oh, I'm, I already put the crossbow back.
I'm alive again.

(01:16:51):
Hallucinary wizards.
Eye twitches a little.
And now you have a vendetta.
I've already made a vendetta against the whole class again.
Yes, it's true.
He doesn't count as a deadpan receptionist.
I don't think he was like deadpan, deadpan.
Is he a deadpan?
Yeah, no, I don't know about that.

(01:17:12):
No, I don't think it counted as a deadpan receptionist.
I was like, wait a second.
I'm looking at my bingo card.
Is he our deadpan receptionist?
I don't think he is.
I would not classify.
No, it's a totally different type I'm thinking of.
All right.
Heading out.
Where you guys headed next?

(01:17:34):
Well, we do need to find the other leaders because we wanted to talk to, I mean, it'd be nice to meet them.
Now we're missing a few, right?
You said D'Vorah we need to talk to?
We need to talk to D'Vorah and Brimstone.
Brimstone, what houses are they from?
D'Vorah is the Crimson Griffins leader.

(01:17:56):
She's a first year also.
Oh, good.
Brimstone is the Golden Moose leader and he is a third year.
And Lucia, you know that Samara is the bodyguard of Brimstone.
Laura, I think I failed you in this alliance making thing.

(01:18:22):
What do you mean?
I don't think it's possible.
You've made an enemy.
I have.
With who?
My roommate.
I thought you said that you things were going okay with your roommate.
I thought they were, but I think we're enemies now.
What happened?

(01:18:45):
You just have to duel to the death, I guess.
Right.
Who's your roommate?
Samara.
Samara.
S out of T.
She doesn't know who that is.

(01:19:06):
She's Brimstone.
What's his name again?
Brimstone.
She's Brimstone's bodyguard.
I see.
Yeah.
Anyway, we're going to prove that we're the better house no matter what.
It's fine.
It was never our plan to make an alliance with the Golden Moose anyways.

(01:19:27):
Really?
Remember we talked about going with Elvia the first years.
That's right.
The wolves and the Crimson Griffins.
Oh, that's right.
Yay, our plan still worked.
Okay, so blue wolves, crimson griffins, and she's taking on a little notepad as she's
seriously writing this down.
You know, she's just kind of looking at Phantom 2.

(01:19:48):
I wonder when I'll run into Marcellus again.
She still owes me that race.
Oh, the boy from the dance.
As she starts to doodle now.
Yes, the one boy of many from the dance.
The one that you danced a lot with at the dance.
Actually, I didn't dance with him that much.

(01:20:10):
I danced with, I danced with Garvey's sister and competed with him.
Oh, well then you just got to whoop his butt.
Yep, I will.
Easy.
So.
Do you like to do that now or after we make alliances?
Well, if I see him, maybe if he's not busy, but yeah, I guess we could go maybe we should

(01:20:36):
go to my dorm and see if D'Vorah's gotten in yet.
Yeah, because we've got to make an alliance with the Crimson Griffins, the blue wolves.
That's it.
Yeah.
As you're already making your way up.
A sight hits you already, Valora.
Oh, no.
Making the rounds, patrolling, eyes vigilant and about.

(01:21:00):
Your father.
Who sees you?
Ignoring him.
All right, let's go.
Valora.
Yes, master at arms.

(01:21:21):
You've done a satisfactory job standing up to Todd Kedualader.
Could have handled it better, to be honest.
But it was handled.
I don't think any.
I don't think it really accomplished anything except for that I had to do it.

(01:21:47):
Todd would give you further obstacles in the future.
Yeah.
If it ever gets to or bearing.
It is my duty at my certain arms to ensure that pieces restored.

(01:22:11):
Well, I'm going to do my best to deal with it.
He's looking at Lusia.
Lusia is literally just sitting awkwardly, respectfully on Phantom's back, just looking between them.

(01:22:34):
Both.
And this goes against the reiterates.
I believe you've done the right thing.
Okay.

(01:22:55):
That's all.
All right.
And you walk away.
See you later.
Would you pull up your Sir Pallavi your night is also there.
Oh, and just kind of like, yeah, it's kind of like, been observing.

(01:23:17):
Hey, we're drawn.
My lady.
How goes your nighting and serving.
And working.
Most exciting day of my career so far.
We do have to go.

(01:23:44):
All right, then I guess I'll let you go keep having fun.
I'm on the top floor if you ever if you're ever looking for me Rudra.
Got it. And then Eric immediately is like,
just come Sir Pallavi walks away.

(01:24:09):
I wanted to ask her about that.
I said, Oh, Lucy, I want to ask her about that other night who she didn't like.
I can't do that in front of my dad.
The other night she didn't like. What do you mean? Yeah, you know, remember when we got here on the airship.
There was a couple sessions back.
You find her name.

(01:24:32):
I did not pick that up.
Sir, I'm Ari. There we go. I couldn't hear you. You cut up.
Sir, I'm Ari. Sir, I'm Ari, who was with my dad when we arrived. Oh, and Rudra was like, Oh, I like them.
Yeah. I wonder what I wonder what.

(01:24:54):
I wonder what their deal is. Me too.
But I will get to talk to Rudra properly eventually.
Oh, you're really I mean, you really like her the more you get to know her too.
She seems like Ori. I like Ori a lot.
Oh, well, that's good.

(01:25:19):
I don't know where you that well, but Rudra comes across kind of like
kind of unfriendly and stuff, but she's actually really fun.
Oh, Ori is very, very helpful.
Always looking out for me, but could definitely kick anyone's butt.

(01:25:40):
Yeah, the Rudra is good at that part, too. Yeah, I definitely see that for sure.
So, OK. So we're talking with
Vora first, or should we go check in on the guy that you stood up for?
I can't remember his name. We can go see.
They're all like, let's see if any of them are in the dorms, because we're all in a line.

(01:26:04):
All the leaders are up there and there. Oh, that's very convenient.
Yeah, I'm neighbors with Saga Dondarius and D'Vora.
Usaga again? Oh, she's the she's the Black Wars leader we met.
With some, you know, her retainers, Lucile.

(01:26:28):
Oh, oh, she's the one that called you trouble.
Yeah, I was I was handing out cake last night.
My mom sent me this really big cake. I don't think I told you.
She sent me this really big cake and but only one plate and a fork.

(01:26:49):
So I was just handing out little pieces to people and then she comes up and cuts herself a big slice,
takes it in her hand and stuff and is all like, oh, that look on your face.
You look like trouble or something. And then.
And she is clutching her pearls if she had them.
She shook kind of cakey hands and yeah.

(01:27:13):
How bold of her.
Yeah.
He sounds pretty male in the school so far.
He's nice to talk to.
By this point, you are approaching the you're approaching the dormitory in the noble dorm.

(01:27:34):
That phantom fly up to the top.
Well, let's just look. I think I left my my window unlocked so that I could have phantom flyers both up to the perch.
Oh, yay.
And then we can fly in the window.
Weeeeee.
I don't know if Lucile got to Sivola or his room.
No, I haven't seen any of their dorms.

(01:27:57):
I don't know if we had phantom.
I know we had phantom when we flew up to the window, but like entering through like, oh, this room, this room is a different aura completely through a window.
I'm kidding.
So do we go. So you guys are we in the room now? Yes.

(01:28:20):
Yes. As she goes over and like kind of runs her your hand on your like thousand count thread bear, you know, she puts her face along it and just kind of stretches her body along as she stretches out.
This is a my goodness.
You're pretty so soft.
They really did it up.

(01:28:41):
It's really nice. And look, that's like a diorama of my city.
What?
She pops up and goes over runs over. It's like a little are there dolls? Can we play house with it?
I guess we could make some.
Yeah. And then you can make a little mini you and a mini of your mom and then one of phantom and then me.
Maybe not your dad. And then we can just go around and play.

(01:29:03):
Yeah.
It's gonna be really cute.
So pretty.
She's just kind of like ticking it all in.
And then you guys hear a soft a knock, not necessarily against your door, but against the wall that the door is on.
She opens up the door.

(01:29:26):
You step out to see on your directly on your right side, you see a young young woman with bright red bright red hair, sort of like milk's made braid currently neat, organized, carrying a bunch of books and like underneath underneath her arm.

(01:29:55):
Backpack full of like you see just the sort of items. Everything is so neatly organized about her, but she has her forehead firmly pressed against the door.
And she has sort of like a dejected look.
The dejected sort of like outlook, it seems.
You need some help.
Oh, um, I just walked up surprise webs and forehead.

(01:30:20):
And she looks at you, her eyes are like a bright light crimson red. It's like, it's like, it's like looking into like a gem, basically.
She just goes, Oh, um, sorry, I didn't mean to, I didn't mean to bother you.
You're not you're not.
I just um,

(01:30:44):
I just got my key and I dropped it somewhere.
No, get into your room.
Um, well, I'm sorry for being rude. My name is um, let me introduce myself first. I am D'Vorah, L'Agostella.
And you are looking for you.

(01:31:08):
Yeah, we were, but I'm the Laura Avonlea.
Yeah. Oh, um, she she puts down books gently, bagged down like, just just like, you know, putting things down like very gingerly walks over to you and like, cups her hands together and bows her head.

(01:31:29):
Um, it goes, it's good to meet a fellow leader.
Yes, it's really good to meet you too.
And this is my retainer.
Hello.
And she and while they've been introducing, she heard her key was missing. So she, Lucia took one of the coins out of her pockets and has cast the light spell on it and kind of like a flashlight.

(01:31:51):
She's on her hands and knees looking around with the light spell for her key.
Hello, Lucy.
I'm her retainer. Goes back to hands and knees looking on the floor for the key.
Oh yeah, let's find that thing.
Oh, your pockets. Here, let me hold the books.

(01:32:12):
You can leave that there. Um, you guys are so, you guys are so, so helpful. Thank you so much. But I think I can go ahead and look at it on my own.
We've got something down here as she's kind of, you know, you see the light. She's under like, are there any like tables or anything in the hall or?

(01:32:33):
There is. Yeah. Like, there's a little runners on them. Exactly. She's under the runner and you see the light flash up. Nope, it's just lint.
Crows crawls back out.
You do, you do, you do feel like there's like a little slight movement.
There's an animal down here. As she goes, crawls back under. And you crawl back under, you pull up like a little piece of carpet and you see a mouse just go.

(01:33:01):
You, you give the key back right now.
I think that's just a mouse, Lucia. Oh, good point.
I'm watching you.
Runs away.
D'Vor, just watching Lucia like just scientifically fascinated.

(01:33:29):
Man, the people in the silver lions are unwell.
Your Tina's very spirited.
That she is.
No, seriously, seriously, you check your pockets. Yeah. Oh, it's fine. I can.

(01:33:50):
Her eyes, her eyes light up for her eyes light up for a moment. And she just begins, you see her fingers kind of like frog through the air for a moment and you see strands begin to like appear like below as she begins to feel like the strands in the air.
As her hand wanders, she just kind of like feels multiple.

(01:34:13):
She begins to feel like multiple errand strands that just appear wherever her hand goes. And she just goes.
She just goes, I've heard a while she's doing this, she's focused on the spell. She just goes, I've heard much about the both the both of you.
This is especially about you, Valora. Aventlea, you built like, you're like a, your family's like really important for like the infrastructure of the whole kingdom.

(01:34:46):
Well, I've heard a lot about the Lodgestilas also.
Yeah. Um, Mark says, Mark of the Scribe, but like bookkeeping, bookkeeping, all kinds of like writing and lore keeping and things like that.
Um, oh, I think she plucks one of the strings. And you guys hear like this fan, fantisimal like chord, like ring, like very slightly through the air. She just goes, that is where my key is.

(01:35:23):
How far do you think it is?
Give me one second.
Oh, it's,
it's really close.
She looks in that direction.
As you look at that, as you look in the direction, you see that there is like a faint, faint image of something directly behind Lucia.

(01:35:49):
What are you looking at?
She goes to, so she can grab it.
Um, will you go to grab it?
Yeah.
Um, make a perception check for me.
Okay.
20 total.
That's good.
20 was the DC.

(01:36:11):
Whoa, that's a high DC.
You walk up and your vision should have already adjusted to like the plane room in front of you.
But you see this faint image
of something begin to sort of like coalesce. You don't know how you did not see this person or felt them, but you see Vesper Valka.

(01:36:34):
Just immediately you jump and Lucia has not noticed at all.
What's wrong? What's wrong?
Is it the mouse?
Oh hi, it's Vesper.
Hello.
Vesper.
I didn't see you there. Wow.
You hear directly behind you, Lucia. Hello.
She screams again.
You scream and Vesper jumps.

(01:36:57):
You see he slash they.
They are now wearing like the uniform.
You saw them like wear like the wolf fur earlier.
Now they're wearing the uniform.
The wolf fur has apparently added a ton of bulk.
This person is this person is slender, petite, shorter than you, shorter than you, Valora.

(01:37:23):
Small, a bit on the smaller like skinnier side.
Like it is a completely new impression of what he what he was wearing earlier and what he looked like.
Big robes and stuff.
Yeah, ghost white hair holding a key in his in his hand.

(01:37:44):
Oh, you found it.
Oh, yes, I found it on the stairs on the way up.
Hello to you all.
I was wondering if one of you have dropped this.
Yes.
Yes. Oh gosh, thank you so much.
You're you're Renata Reyes.

(01:38:09):
Oh, no, I'm Vesper Vanga.
Renata Reyes had rejected her, rejected her position of leadership at the school and I have taken up in her stead.
Is that normal?
See it chirps out.
No, it's not.
It's just circumstances.

(01:38:31):
Oh, OK, sorry. Continue.
Back to being quiet with her and dibs the light on her coin.
I'm.
Yes, I'm Devora, our logistella.
Nice to meet you.
Yes.
Likewise.
For it seems like we're all destined to be neighbors.

(01:38:52):
Yeah.
Is that true with the other leaders as well reading the other nameplates?
Mm hmm. There's Saga there.
And Brimstone's down here somewhere.
And the other goes, if I could be honest, this is a little.

(01:39:14):
This is this is this does things.
This sues out the nerves a little bit.
I mean, being next to, you know, the I have a lot to learn from you from you guys.
Um.
So, um, thank you again, all of you so much.

(01:39:35):
Again, I apologize for the trouble.
Oh, they just happened to find your key that wasn't much trouble, was it?
This.
Hmm. I can't believe like, like Vanga so quiet, I didn't hear them there at all.

(01:39:56):
Yeah, me neither. You were just there.
Oh, I didn't want to intrude on the conversation.
So I waited until it was time and then Lucy screamed.
You hid really well and she does herself off as she stands up.

(01:40:19):
Yeah. Oh, well, we wanted to talk to both of you.
I mean, all the leaders really, but especially you two.
But here, do you want some help with your with your stuff?
Oh, no, no, no, it's OK. But seriously, it's just that outside.
We can put like, no, it's OK. We can talk.
We can definitely talk. We could work and talk.

(01:40:40):
If you want. I like the sounds of that.
You have a mini dollhouse in your room, too.
Well, I haven't been inside the room yet, so she let's see, let's see.
As she goes up to the door and starts to open it.
Let me put the key in there.

(01:41:01):
She she opens up, she opens up the door and you see that there are banners of like
what that you can recognize, Valora banners of like multiple, like esteemed magical
like a magical academies.
One of them has a crown on top of it called the Solivagant Academy,
which, you know, is a premier magical academy.

(01:41:26):
There is a prosaic mosaic, not prosaic mosaic, like glass art of of like what's
what seems to be Devora.
And on top of it is a plaque that says.
The wildfire of Stravae.
Wow.

(01:41:47):
Fancy titles. The wildfire of Stravae. She had and she does have a sort of like
a mini I forgot what they're called, like dioramic sort of like like a model.
She have a she have a dollhouse, too.
Yes, she does.
She is running over to see what it looks like.

(01:42:08):
You you run over the whole city looks like like it looks like a castle.
It's a walled in sort of place, tall spires.
You see that you see that this one is actually this one.
This one's pretty special in that there are actually like little mini rain clouds,
dark like stormy clouds hanging overhead.

(01:42:29):
Like like there's magic to it.
She gasps as she kind of like peers in between the city.
Is it always raining in your city?
It is a little gloomy.
She smiles as she sees it.
And she just she goes, I think I know exactly what they want me to do.
And she kind of like circles a finger at it.

(01:42:54):
You see the clouds clear away, replacing it with like snow.
And you see you see that the entire place becomes covered and like it becomes snowdusted.
Oh, that's so cool.
Well, I'll admit that's a little flattering, but I'm also a little distracting if I do want to commit to my studies.

(01:43:20):
Doesn't it snow at your house, too?
Oh, yes, very much so.
It says the weather is so arduous that we often have to learn how to wield a sword before we wield a pen.
Because of that, we have gathered many special abilities that make us the hearty people that we are.

(01:43:43):
What do you do for your jams, though?
My jams?
Yeah. Oh, it's cold. How do you make your jams from the berries?
Hmm. We we do not create jams.
Some places can get it imported pretty easily, especially from I mean, some from Arnador, some from Conica.

(01:44:09):
Poor people. And she puts her hands on on Vesper's shoulder.
You have you need jam. It's OK. You're safe now. I'll get you some. OK.
You stay here. Thank you for keeping me safe.
Yes. And you talk with Valora. I'll be right back.
Poor, poor thing.
Lucy, it's really OK. I feel like you should be here, too.

(01:44:32):
Yes, no jam. She was first to Valora.
There's plenty of jam at the school, so I think they'll...
No, no, they don't have it like I do.
Do you want me to show you something that...
Do you want me to show you a particular skill that I've acquired while I was while I have while I grew up in Aurora?

(01:45:01):
Yes, please do.
They step back from you, Lucy, and they they they gesture.
They they gesture to take your hand.
Oh, are we going to dance?
She puts her hand in there.
She gently takes your hand and then bring like pulls you closer.

(01:45:23):
Oh, and like guides your hand up towards their neck.
What is happening?
You can feel the pulse points of their heart.
What in the romcom is this?
Just completely like and you can tell Valora that they don't think they're doing anything like this is like, you know,

(01:45:44):
they're not very socially.
They don't understand that this is a little affectionate.
And you feel the light beating of their heart from the neck.
Yes, that's your pulse.
Do you feel that?
Yes.
All right.
Name a number from zero to 100.

(01:46:09):
It can be zero if you wish.
Twenty two.
And you feel the heartbeat slow.
Well, as the slow their breathing.
What are you doing?

(01:46:30):
This is bad.
And no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
This is you're going to die.
No, this is medically on bad bad bad.
And then they just go, oh, let me bring it up.
You feel it complete control.
Wait, wait, wait.
Let me see.
Let me see.
Can I?
Okay.

(01:46:51):
Any number?
Um, looks at Lucia.
Um, well, a hundred.
That's really bad.
Oh, uh, oh, okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Like what's normal for you?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.

(01:47:12):
I don't know.
What's normal?
What's the normal heart rate, Lucia?
The resting heart rate should be about 60 to 90.
Okay, 60, 60.
Oh, a little bit.
That's much higher than my resting heart rate.
Oh, you mean?
Um, wow.
Wow.
That's, that's, wow.
Dvor, Dvor, Dvor is like, I know so much magic, but like I've never seen anything like

(01:47:41):
that before.
Here.
What?
Okay, I'm sorry.
Why do you learn how to do that?
That's the why.
Why?
It was how I survived out in the, in the blizzards.
And I suppose that is why I am quite hard to detect at times.

(01:48:04):
Oh, you just like literally stop your heart.
Nods.
Here.
Um, takes, takes your hand, brings it up to the neck again.
And you see that they become still.
They close their eyes and you feel the heartbeat completely slow to a stop.

(01:48:28):
Okay, that's, that's really terrifying.
That's actually really terrifying.
You can stop.
You can stop.
Breeds.
This is, this is so bad for your health.
This is, this is so dangerous.
She's a cleric, so.
Oh, my apologies.
No, no apologies necessary.
I just don't worry.
I'm going to ensure that we, that we work, have some great cardiovascular health exercises

(01:48:56):
integrated into your morning routine.
Oh, I've done plenty of those.
Yes.
Yes.
You're going to do more.
I don't know if like, if like a person who can fully completely control their heart rate

(01:49:16):
needs to do more exercise.
It's not right.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
It was very nice to meet all of you.

(01:49:37):
If you ever need help with anything, like anything at all, but I am, she, she points
at the, the, the banner says, Salivian Academy.
Says, I was the very top prospector graduated from Salivian Academy a month ago.
Well, a month ago.
Whoa, you just don't stop.

(01:50:02):
She, she not, you see that when you said that she like, she was like actually very proud.
You okay.
So you just like had it lined up just right to come straight here.
Not exactly.
Um, well, after I graduated, they didn't approach me and I had accepted because, um, I couldn't

(01:50:25):
possibly turn down a, I possibly could not turn down an offer from Lord Moonglave himself.
Wait, so you were-
It's not enough.
Lord Moonglave's on the bingo, but I said, I said specifically that, oh no, wait.
I said beyond brief mention of Lord Paramount status.

(01:50:47):
So I think that counts.
No!
Cause they didn't just say he was Lord Paramount.
They were talking about him.
Back off your bingo square.
You can beg it.
Not a bingo spot.
So, um, uh, uh, Alessio goes, wait, so you were selected based on your academic ability?
Um, yes, I suppose they have seen great promise in me.

(01:51:10):
I was one of the very few, I apologize.
I don't want to seem like I'm bragging.
And she's, she just goes, I, I just, um, was very dedicated to my work and I was one of
the very few people who had mastered more than two schools of magic at the academy.

(01:51:35):
More than two?
I don't mean that as a brag, it's just- No, you should brag.
You've earned it.
It's very rare, but other people have done it.
What?
Seriously, brag?
And she goes, um, evocation, illusory, um, let's see, transmutation.

(01:51:56):
Three!
And?
Wait, that's four!
She gets really like, like, she gets really like flustered.
No, you're incredible.
As you know, Lucia just grabs her by the shoulders and goes, you should be so proud of yourself.

(01:52:17):
Oh, um, blushes a little bit.
What other schools of magic?
Oh, um, evocation, illusion, transmutation, conjugation.
Oh, and?
Five!
Abjuration.
That's like all of them almost, right?

(01:52:39):
Well, there is eight and-
Just necromancy.
I wouldn't say I have mastered, uh, I haven't, I haven't mastered, uh, you know, abjuration.
I did miss a, I did, I did miss one of the questions on the exam because I was running

(01:53:00):
too fast.
One!
She was going too fast.
Oh my God.
I'm, but missing one question doesn't mean you haven't mastered it, right?
I mean, they did give me the mastery rank, though, um, it didn't score as higher as,
it didn't score as high as the other ones.

(01:53:22):
Um, it is rare for, like, for graduations to master even one score.
I, I keep bragging.
I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry.
No, I told you to brag.
Oh, you should, you've earned it.
Okay, um, I mastered five.
Not if you don't want to, but like, yeah.
Okay, I just don't want to seem like I'm, I'm very humbled to be here.

(01:53:43):
I'm so, I'm so, I can't wait to work with all of you for the next three years.
Um, I will, I will try my best to be an invaluable ally to you all and thank you so much for
helping me today and helping me in the future, I assume.

(01:54:04):
Of course.
Well, we'll talk about working together the next few years.
What if we worked together tomorrow?
She says, looking at both of them.
Oh, right.
Um, she pulls out this planner.
Uh, oh Jesus.
You see, you see, she snaps her finger at a little wormhole shows up.
She pulls out a planner from it.

(01:54:25):
Um, and she just, she just flips through.
The planner is full.
Um, already you haven't, we haven't even gotten like the school itinerary yet.
I figured out the next few months of like, you know, I had to square out my free time
and maybe find some clubs to attend.
Uh, and I'm hoping I can fill that out when I do attend clubs.

(01:54:47):
Hopefully three, I think three is a sweet number.
Um, three clubs?
Well, whatever, you know, calls to you.
Yes, certainly.
Um, I, I am the, I am the number one national, uh, the number one national, uh, champion
of dragon chess.
I'm bragging again.
Oh wow.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

(01:55:08):
But tomorrow's the Mac battle.
Yeah, that's exactly.
We were thinking that's part of why we wanted to find you guys as well.
The black boars won last year and all of us first years are in a convenient little line.
I wondered if maybe you guys wanted to help get up the upperclassmen leaders houses first.

(01:55:33):
Oh, is- is colluding- colluding okay?
Of course! An alliance!
It's not like- okay.
I'm just academically honest and I just want to make sure that there is no like-
It's not cheating. It's not cheating.
It's not cheating. Okay.
This is part of- I mean this is part of commanding, you know? If anything, I think it would give us higher marks, just following the assignment more closely.

(01:55:58):
What do you think, Vesper?
Vesper goes, I wouldn't say this is particularly cheating as well. We are getting our first taste of war, after all.
Uh, and they go, and I do believe that it would be a good show of cooperation.
Yeah.

(01:56:19):
This is something that we are here to engender.
I agree.
Very well.
Plus it won't be as scary if there's more of us together.
I mean we'll have to turn on each other eventually for the mock battle, but-
See his eyes go wide!
But to start?

(01:56:40):
Um, D'Vorah just goes, I- ooh, okay, um, closes planner, puts it in the wormhole, pulls out the one that has a silver lion and sign on it, and just kind of flips through.
And you see this one that says, Valor Avalaya.
Oh, I haven't run anything- I've written a few observations down, like, for your family and stuff, but like, we're making alliances.

(01:57:09):
That's about me!
Oh, yeah, of course!
She's writing about her in front of her! This is fucking wild!
This is fucking wild!
I'm just organized, is all.
Yeah, I can tell. Um, I'm starting to feel bad about just putting your books on the empty shelf, um, now.

(01:57:31):
Oh, no, it's okay, I- if it's anything, I can fix it.
Yeah, I was gonna say I definitely did it wrong then.
No, you did it your way.
There is no one that way.

(01:57:52):
Oh my god!
I'm so sorry!
Why are you apologizing? There's nothing to apologize for.
Well, I hadn't thought about it beyond that because I wanted to talk to you guys first, and you know, it's kind of short notice, but I think we'd do better to band together against the people who have a little bit more experience.

(01:58:18):
Yeah, and how much fun would it seem, regardless of which house it is, to see a first-year win?
I suppose I would- would not mind conjuring up a underdog story.
That's kind.

(01:58:39):
I will accept your alliance.
Fantastic.
If it's okay.
Of course.
And, uh, and you see D'Vor just goes, oh, I didn't know, okay, like, I didn't know like my room would be like on the very first day would be the stage of like, of like a conspiracy.

(01:59:10):
I don't know if I'd call it that.
Aren't we are conspiring the very definition of conspiring to go up against to go up against our allies.
We're alliancing, and technically, we're aligning.
They're not our allies tomorrow.
Plus, like, don't you think the upperclassmen are going to pick on us anyway?

(01:59:33):
Saga Dondarius, the Black Boar's leader, she's super confident because she beat the third year Silver Lions leader last year, and as a first year.
And, um, well, I think we've got to show her that she shouldn't get too comfortable.
And the same for Brimstone, who I haven't met yet.

(01:59:56):
So, well, his bodyguard, this bodyguard thinks she's pretty something, so they think they're going to win, too.
Oh, um, I've heard Brimstone go to the Moose book and Brimstone had attained an injury a few months prior.

(02:00:17):
Pretty significant back injury, but I like I don't know if he's around, but like it is almost the opening ceremony.
Samara, Samara, Samara Eckbert.
I have here. Oh, wow.
I've written here that she's known as Fort Samara.
I could see that you see her eyes are narrowed.

(02:00:40):
Um, and I'm going to take down and Vesper goes, forts are meant to be infiltrated and taken out from the inside.
Excellent point, Vesper.
And she goes, I just have to do mind games to take her down.
I have this knife.

(02:01:06):
Apologies. You see the mic disappears.
You don't know where they put it.
Well, how many do you have on you?
Just curious. Oh, pose out, pose out pants.
You see that there's there are like on each of his on each of his legs are five like knives and they're each like rogue.

(02:01:27):
Yeah, they're each like handcrafted.
You can see that they're not of uniform make.
Um, and then he pulls up his sleeves and you see there's like one underneath like both of his wrists.
Geez, Vesper.
Twelve.
And they're not like poke you with them all up your legs like that.
How do they not like poke you all up your legs like that?

(02:01:51):
Oh, proper technique.
Oh, you must be really good at infiltration.
Yes, I can go in.
I can go inside just about anything.
Deep inside.
Stop, stop, Vesper.
Vesper, Vesper, Vesper, you poor sweet summer child.

(02:02:16):
They don't know what they're saying because they are very socially not.
Well, hold on.
If Vesper is really good at being sneaky, Valora is really good at knocking people down.
She knocked me out with one shot.
She's not good.
And if you're really smart, she points to D'Vora.
Maybe we can come up with a plan or strategy that will play to everyone's strengths.

(02:02:43):
Yeah.
What do you guys think?
Do you think we should target one house at a time as the three of us or.
Spread out.
D'Vora goes, I got to admit, a battlefield strategy isn't something I'm really.

(02:03:08):
I'm not too familiar with yet.
But what I'm guessing is if we try to attack all of if we if we try to attack one of them all at once, then the other one's just going to I feel like fall in with the other one.
And we're going to be dealing with the second and third year team.
That's true.

(02:03:29):
And even if they don't, then they're going to be perfectly healthy while we're all licking our wounds a little bit still.
Not if I have something to do about it.
I'm the healer, by the way, she does her shoulders off with there's none.
There's nothing on it, but she just she's trying to put on a show.
People with trees.
That too, when in doubt, I am a healer.

(02:03:52):
That makes sense.
You have a very soothing voice.
And who says this?
A Vesper and they mean it.
Okay, Lucia is she's she's she's a little dim, so she's going to go, you know, I can see that.

(02:04:13):
I can really appreciate that.
I've been told that, you know, my voice just like loves babies to sleep sometimes.
Just I can hear that.
Yes.
Oh, my God.
Poor Vesper.
You're so innocent.
I love Vesper.
I love them.

(02:04:35):
The Vorgos.
Maybe we could still use the number of games, but I think one of us should go after one.
And if you want use the number games against one of them, the perhaps, you know, we could split.
We could split the field.

(02:04:56):
I think that's really smart.
It does put one of us in a bit of a bind.
Maybe I mean having to go one on one against one of the houses.
Maybe one of us, maybe one of our houses, I don't know if you'd think this is totally unwise, though, for this house, though, is one of our houses can kind of split and support both battles.

(02:05:24):
Until they're both gone.
Hmm.
That makes sense.
I'm afraid I'm not too familiar with people in my house yet.
I don't have a retainer.
Oh, no.

(02:05:45):
What do you mean?
Oh, well, this is my first time really stepping into the school and they didn't have time to properly set a retainer for me.
And I actually how all of how all of this played out.
I didn't know this was happening.
I would have said no if I knew, but apparently I had taken the leadership position from a third year here.

(02:06:11):
Oh.
Uh oh.
Which I didn't mean to intrude.
I just I'm just I just believe I don't know my battlefield situation as much.
I'm sorry.
That's true.
I mean, all of us are, I mean, going to be working with people we don't know.
And that's that's true.

(02:06:36):
Well, what do you think?
What do you think, Vesper?
I think, you know, I maybe there's a stereotyping, but I know in general, most of the time, fighters from Kanaka are tend to be more on the melee side and whatnot.
And I mean, and also there tends to be a lot more mages from the Crimson Griffon's house from Stravai.

(02:07:05):
It seems like they might actually I mean, as far as I know, mages are the best equipped to deal with that.
Maybe it wouldn't be as uneven.
Actually having the Crimson Griffon's focus on the Golden Moose first.

(02:07:26):
And your force says and your mind forces will pincer attack the Black Boars.
Mm hmm.
Exactly.
Yes.
And then we'll finish up quickly and then we'll assist.
I believe that is sound.
I know that puts a lot of weight on you, D'Vorah, but.

(02:07:49):
And she doesn't have a retainer.
It's really all right.
I'll find a way to persevere.
You know, I've.
Can you loan out retainers?
She turns to Velora.
Can she have one for hire?
Well, I mean,
I mean, technically, right.

(02:08:12):
It's very possible that your retainer, her retainer is in her house already.
She just hasn't picked someone yet.
You want us to help you pick someone?
Oh, that takes time.
You know, I mean, usually she's kind of glancing at Lucia.
I'll figure.
She looks like she's like this.

(02:08:35):
You really speak Lucia.
I would definitely.
I just don't want you to be alone because I don't know.
Velora can handle herself, but I would be sad if I was a leader on my own.
I'm still figuring everything out.
And you know, we're just in the feeling things out phase of everything.
So.

(02:09:00):
I feel like everything is going to be fine and that I will give it my all.
And I will be doing my best to try and win.
Of course.
As we all should.
I guess I guess after we defeat the if we do defeat the black boars and the golden the golden moose,

(02:09:25):
I suppose it becomes a free for all between all of us.
Yes. Well, I suppose we'll figure that out as we come to it.
I think so.
But you can't you can't like negotiate or something or negotiations in war, can't we say pause now we're going to negotiate?

(02:09:51):
I guess technically, but I think it goes against the spirit of this particular battle.
And that's what goes.
I will do my best to not shed blood of any of my you are all my allies, my friends, my.

(02:10:14):
We are all in this together.
I must refrain, I believe, from using some of my strength because I am very accustomed to delivering lethal, lethal blows.
Oh, yes, we're not trying to actually.
Grievously harm anyone, of course.

(02:10:37):
That is a relief.
I've never killed anyone before and I don't want to.
Silence.
The four goes, I don't think we have to do that.
No.
Especially not for a healer.
Oh, you're a healer.
Oh, you said that earlier and Vesper said you had a soothing voice.

(02:11:03):
I know, right?
Oh, OK.
And Vesper just going, it's very sing song.
It just goes, there are birds from my from my region that sound much like you.
Do I sound like home?
Certainly, yes.

(02:11:25):
Ah.
So, OK, that's the plan.
We're going to go to the forest.
So, OK, that's the plan.
If we're all in agreement.
I think that's that sounds good.
Great.
I'll do my best.

(02:11:46):
I like that idea.
And Vesper goes.
Well, there is there is some relief for me here for the very start of it all.
The the silver lions and the blue wolves are working in direct tandem together.
And I think that's fantastic.

(02:12:07):
Yes.
I'm not not to exclude you, Dvorab, but like I did talk to Todd.
I can't say we probably got anywhere, but I talked to him and I told him that.

(02:12:28):
I'm not putting up with that.
Not not from a perspective of his as his leader, because he already told me that he wasn't going to listen to me as a leader.
So I said, I'm.
Not going to let him do it.
Treat people like that as a person.

(02:12:49):
And.
I don't think we got far, but I tried the nice way.
So just know I'm not I'm not going to do nothing if he keeps acting this way.
OK.
You are an exemplary leader that.

(02:13:10):
Obviously, I have much looking up to do.
Thank you.
Why?
The mock battle, you can hit him first.
You deserve that.
To be fair.
I promise I will not decapitate him.

(02:13:33):
Wow, that's yeah.
Thank you.
That is my solemn vow.
Fantastic.
The war goes.
Does that happen often?
I have done it before.
Yes.
Um.

(02:13:56):
Oh, Vesper, you make me nervous.
You're very skilled, Vesper.
I'm so glad we're friends and not enemies.
Yeah, that 100 percent.
I agree.
Until we until we have reached a favorable conditions tomorrow, then I am afraid we will be in the same boat.
Until we have reached a favorable conditions tomorrow, then I am afraid we will be that I am afraid we will be enemies and I will have to strike you down thoroughly.

(02:14:27):
That if you will have to strike first.
That says that is a very rare case, but I wish you the best of luck.
I'll hand you your luck right back because I think you're the one who's going to need it and she pokes them on the shoulder.

(02:14:48):
Banser.
You won't even see us coming.
I'm going to kill you.
Oh, no.
I apologize.
This is Banser, correct?
That's a little intense, but it is pretty funny.
No, good.
Good.
You're going to kill me.

(02:15:09):
All right.
I will.
Um, bend you from top to bottom and slice you directly in half.
And I'll slice you directly in the other half.
Are you sure you are able to do that if I hang you from your innards?
Okay, I don't know if I can keep going down this line, but you're really cool.

(02:15:33):
Wave your, wave your head, wave your decapitated head on a stick in front of your weeping mother.
Okay, Vesper, Vesper, we're all done now.
Oh, apologies.
Oh, no, no, no, you're nothing to apologize for.
Devorah is wide-eyed.
What the fuck have I done?

(02:15:57):
And I mean, this goes without saying, but it goes without saying, and she is saying this mostly for Lucia.
Cause Lucia's like, side-eyeing you heavily.
She was, we obviously aren't going to let any of the black boars or golden moose know about this arrangement.

(02:16:22):
No, and if there would be some information leak, that would be in direct conflict with the Alliance.
Flicks it both Vesper and Devorah.
You have my loyalty.
I swear to the blizzards of my homeland.

(02:16:43):
I, and I swear it on my, my name.
Yeah, good.
And I swear it on mine.
Puts out her hand to shake, well, both like crossed.

(02:17:05):
And then they shake their, they each shake their hands too.
Very well.
We have an accord.
I'm feeling a lot better about tomorrow then.
Those third years aren't going to see us coming.

(02:17:31):
They're really not going to see them coming. She's just pointing at Vesper.
Oh no, they won't even hear them.
Yes.
And you see both of you make perception checks.
God.
They're literally just standing there and then they're going to disappear itself.
14.

(02:17:54):
Me four.
30.
Jesus.
You, you're holding their hand.
You just see Vesper hold their breath.
And then you kind of blink a few times and you see that like the form of them is like shimmering.

(02:18:15):
Wild.
How does that work?
That's not how hiding works.
That's not how hiding works.
That's not how physics works.
She squeezes the hand to make sure they're still there.
She's like, oh, you just, they just like, it just makes sense when they show up.
It's like, it feels like they were blending in.

(02:18:37):
Huh?
Wow.
Thumbs up, correct?
That is a positive sentiment.
Yes.
She thumbs up.
Well, you're both absolutely fantastic.
We talented, I can tell skilled.

(02:19:00):
Mm hmm.
Um, and, uh, I'm looking forward to everything.
Is that your, is that anyone's wyvern right out window?
Oh yeah.
You guys want to, you guys want to meet him?
That's phantom.
You see phantoms peeking like side eyeing.
Here on my, in my room, we can go through the window and we can get onto his perch if you want to meet him.

(02:19:25):
Oh, is that okay?
Yeah.
Does that, what are the, what's the weight limit set by the, the building authority here?
I mean, if they, they plan for a wyvern, they probably gave a lot of extra, like how those regulations normally work is they add a lot of extra weight room because wyverns can vary in size a lot.

(02:19:46):
So like it's probably safe for all of us.
Certainly.
If not, he'll catch us.
Okay.
Here.
She goes to, she goes to exit the room and opens her door.
Phantom retreats back to the perch acts like he wasn't listening.
Here's a dollhouse in her room too.
As I see it, shoddles after Valor into the room.

(02:20:09):
Opens the window.
Um, Vesper goes, is something wrong with your leg?
Lucia.
Leg?
Oh, she, oh, she leans down and just gives it a just a little pat.
I'm good.
I got into this really, really tough.
Feds down, thumb against the center.
You're touching my leg!

(02:20:31):
Surging pain throughout.
Ahh!
And in relief.
Oh, okay, wow.
Oh.
Oh, thanks.
That was traumatizing, but thank you, Vesper.
I was, uh.
Traumatizing.
Yeah, just a little, but it's okay, it's okay.
Thank you so much.
What does that mean?

(02:20:53):
I think it's something you have a lot of, but we'll go into that another day.
No, it's like.
Um.
She's going to, and, uh, adds thanks.
Um, she'll go, she'll just go.
Like the blizzards from your home and she'll druidcraft a little bit of snow to fall onto

(02:21:16):
his, onto his head.
Um, there is that, there is that look of like, slight smile of like, uh, like you see comfort.
Because.
That's very nice, Lucia.
Can't wait to see your home.

(02:21:38):
And your dollhouse, she says as she goes and runs over to where, um, the floor is with
Phantom.
Um.
You spend the, you spend the moment, uh, all of you sitting outside on the perch.
Uh, Vesper seems very comfortable, uh, out on the very top of the building and Davorah

(02:21:59):
is like, oh, okay, I'm just going to put my hand here and just going to move forward.
I'm just going to be really careful.
I'm going to be really careful.
Okay.
Yeah.
Um, there's, there's a lot more room out here than it looks like.
Okay.
Yeah.
She's like halfway out and there's so much room.
She's, she's really nice.
I hate heights, so I feel this on a deep level.

(02:22:20):
There's only eight stories.
Oh yeah, just a little fall.
On top of the mountain.
That would kill us.
That would kill us on impact with that fall damage.
That's typically a harmful amount for many people.
Oh, I mean, I guess I haven't fallen from, well, I'm pretty good at falling, but also

(02:22:43):
like phantoms really good at catching.
So until you go on his back, it's incredible, but you have to make sure that you put on
your seatbelt.
In my homeland, there are many perilous chasms that would spell certain death.
If you were to fall into one, this is not a perilous chasm.
Yeah.
Nothing to worry about.
Okay.
Comforting.

(02:23:04):
Great.
Plus phantom helped fight a Yeti on the middle of a perilous chasm.
So wow.
A Yeti.
Yeah.
Um, this goes, we are says looks at looks at phantom and goes, then we are says, then
we are warriors and blood together.

(02:23:27):
You are a phantom and I am a ghost.
Yeah, you know, I actually almost named him ghost because he was gray.
Um, when I says, okay, so basically, um, we had like, we had like a bunch of Pegasi who
we just sent to, um, the super rich dude in Conica and he decided to send them all back

(02:23:52):
and in the whole convoy, they, there was also this hatchling wyvern and I don't know where
it came from.
We were going to send it back.
I snuck it in my room.
I was like, I like six or seven.
And um, because he's like, have his color and he's gray.

(02:24:13):
And I was like, when he flies in the sky, he'd look like a ghost.
I wanted to name him ghost, but I was learning about synonyms in school and learning how
to use a thesaurus.
So I looked it up and I chose phantom as his name.
So he's almost a gray ghost too.
Um, um, completely like legitimately, like they were like, like, like Vesper was a 100%

(02:24:41):
like in rapture.
Just love that.
Um, they, they go up to phantom.
It just goes, may I holding out a hand?
Um, and then pets phantom and they just go very, very soon you will be able to hunt eight

(02:25:02):
yetis in one day.
You're not all supposed to be up there.
Um, you hear from below.
I'm sorry.
It's not a big deal.
Devorah.
Oh, oh, Lucia scrambles down.

(02:25:25):
It really doesn't matter.
They wouldn't put this here if they weren't cool with us standing on it.
And then Devorah just goes, Oh, I just like, um, you know, I just smacked her arms, just

(02:25:48):
don't want to be.
Yeah.
My dad.
I don't know what to do with my dad.
Just pretend like we can't hear him.
It's too high up.
I know you can hear me, valora.
Why I realize it's so high up here and there's wind.
You did not lose your hearing.
What?

(02:26:09):
What?
I'll talk to you later!
He goes, the others have clearly heard me.
See, it is back in the room.
She's retreated, she's hiding.

(02:26:29):
The whore is hiding with you.
They have a really weird relationship, I'm not gonna lie.
She just quietly took the whore.
Um...
And just goes,
I know you can hear me, multiple people should not be out on that perch.
Oh my god.

(02:26:51):
It is a gift given to you by your mother, do not destroy it.
Can't hear you.
Then I suppose I should come up there.
Hey Lucia, can you lock the door?
Uh, yeah!

(02:27:12):
She quickly locks the door.
The door is locked now!
The whore goes, is he coming up here?
It's who? The whore just told me to knock the door.
Opens up book, she turns invisible.
No!
No, wait! Wait, where'd you go?

(02:27:36):
Alright, I guess we've met him anyways.
I just don't want him to think I'm going in because he said so though.
Should I hide?
Oh my god, no!
Everyone's fucking hiding!
Should I hide?
I...
It's not a big deal, it's just my dad, stupid.

(02:28:00):
Is it more convenient?
No, I actually would prefer he...
He didn't think I was doing what he said, to be honest.
Oh, alright.
Like I was ready to go back inside to be honest,
but now I just want to stay out here and sit on the edge and dangle my legs or something and have a nice long conversation.

(02:28:22):
Okay, you see that they put away the huge woofer?
The whore goes, I cannot get into trouble, I cannot get into trouble on my first day.
You're the whore in the room.
Dora, I can't even see you, I don't even know where you are, I'm just talking in air right now.
I am talking to you, I just can't see you.

(02:28:50):
Knock on the door.
Valora.
Oh, he came up.
I guess I'll go talk to him.
Goes climbs through window, unlocks door, opens.
What were you saying?
You can't have multiple people out on the porch.

(02:29:14):
Why not? What's the weight limit?
Let me talk.
No, I asked what's the weight limit.
Multiple people should not be out on it, it is a safety hazard.
But multiple people ride on phantom all the time.
It's so sturdy, it's fine.

(02:29:36):
I'm not talking about a place that you invite others to.
You want to enjoy the heights to go to the cliffside cafe.
It's perfectly safe.
But thanks for your concern, Master at Arms.
And I don't believe I'm breaking any school rules by doing it, since you know using the facilities that the school gave you.

(02:29:58):
I am concerned for your safety.
I would be doing this with anyone else.
You shouldn't be concerned, because there is nothing to be concerned about.
But thank you for being so diligent.
I promise nothing's going to go wrong, Master at Arms.

(02:30:20):
Anything else I can help you with?
Laura.
Don't be dismissive of me when I'm just trying to show concern for you.

(02:30:42):
I didn't dismiss it. I mean I did, but because it was stupid. So...
You can't talk that way to your father.
And even then, it's not proper etiquette to speak that way to the Master at Arms.
Alright, well maybe it's...

(02:31:05):
Maybe that much is true, but also like, you're wasting my time.
There's nothing unsafe happening.
Okay?
My apologies, Lucia.
Hi.

(02:31:26):
There were two others in here, weren't there?
Umm... those were illusions.
Deception with disadvantage.
Also, thank you for following Folsom, I think.
Hello Folsom! Thank you for following.
Who you? Welcome! Who dis?

(02:31:49):
Rand?
Oh! That's actually not bad!
19 and 16.
28.
Oh Jesus!
He has plus 12 in sight? Eugh.
Ooh, lords!
I hate him.

(02:32:11):
Nice!
Valor, please do not...
They have much to learn from you, you have much to learn from them.
But be careful with the others.

(02:32:32):
But be careful especially with the blue wolves.
I don't think there's anything to worry about with the blue wolves, dad.
You know there is tension between...
Sure, and the people here are good people, as far as I've seen.

(02:32:55):
You cannot be sure of that.
I'll make my judgments of people as I meet them.
And not based on what some...
What one clan and maybe a few others are doing right now.
Because not everyone in Aurora...
Like I shouldn't look at all these people there who aren't involved with that, who are here serving the king directly.

(02:33:20):
I can't believe you would say that.
And you didn't say that, but...
What you're implying.
I'm just advising you to exercise caution. That is all.
Shouldn't I have that caution with anyone then? Couldn't anyone turn against the king?
From any region?

(02:33:42):
Enough, Valor.
No, no, no, no. Why are we painting everyone who comes from Aurora with such a broad stroke there?
This is the worst place for them to be right now if they're a part of that.
I'm gonna return to my duties.

(02:34:04):
Oh, I bet you will.
Can't answer a basic question.
Oh, Jesus.
When are you going to grow up?
Still not answering.

(02:34:25):
Basic question.
You know, it's your job to keep them safe too. Even if they're from Aurora.
It is.
And it is also my job to keep you all safe.
I just don't think you're going to be that much better than Todd if you're starting off looking at them like they're...

(02:34:51):
like they're treasonous.
I'm going to return to my duties now.
Okay. Go, have fun.
Looks over the room. It just goes...
It just goes...
Why do you have that shag carpet? It's dirty.

(02:35:15):
They put it here.
Already messy. You look... It's a wolf fur.
I know it's the wolf fur.
Is he under it?
Yeah, he is a wolf fur.
Oh my God. Best fur! I love them!

(02:35:37):
Little dork! Just a little dork.
Her father leaves.
Sorry you had to hear that. Especially you, Vesper.
The wolf moves up and they take it all off.

(02:36:02):
I understand that there is many hurdles to overcome.
But that is the responsibility I had. That is the one truth that I had accepted that I would have to overcome once I had come here.
Sure, but it's not fair to you.
And it's not fair for someone like my dad to be holding that against all of you from the beginning.

(02:36:32):
Perhaps that is true.
But the undeniable truth of that is that it is happening.
And that it must be overcome.
Unfairness and injustices are everywhere within the world.
I wish above all that none of these maladies were here to plague any of us.

(02:36:56):
But we can accept that the world is what it is and we will instill our will in every way we possibly can to make the world a better place.
Well, that's a good way to look at it, I guess.
Will you join me in changing the minds of the masses, perhaps?

(02:37:22):
Of course. I mean, you should know.
Yeah, I'm... I'm down for that.
Pulls out a knife.
Oh.
And he... you see, they just go, oh!
Don't cut your hand! Don't cut your hand!

(02:37:46):
Um... what's the way the knife...
I'm having fun with it.
Oh, I was going to carve an animal to share a meal together and... um... sew together our promise.
Oh. Well, that's... I would love that.

(02:38:08):
I suppose this can work as well. I'm not familiar with... um... holds out a pinky.
Oh, um... takes pinky.
No bond stronger than that right there.
I have to cut off your pinky now?
No!

(02:38:29):
We just do this, Link's pinky.
Thank goodness.
Um... and... Devora goes...
Are you okay, Devora?
Visibility goes away.

(02:38:51):
She's... she's sweating... just... bad.
See, that wasn't too bad, now was it? You're getting in trouble. Win-win.
I'm sorry, Valora.
Oh, you didn't do anything wrong.
I just... can't help but feel bad.

(02:39:14):
Oh, well... don't worry about my dad.
Like... he's on to people for stupid shit all the time.
When you say shit, she just... she just...
What?
You okay?
Oh, I just... yeah.

(02:39:40):
You're... you're something else, Valora.
He's pretty cool.
I suppose I should get back to my room now.
And uh...
Oh yeah, I'll let you unpack.
Get everything ready, but... thank you again. Everyone.
Thank you. I'm excited for tomorrow.

(02:40:03):
And we're gonna win...
All of us at first, and then one of us is gonna win, but I feel like there's still like a victory there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, even if one of us wins, it's still a win for the first years.
First years tonight.
Yes. But I have every intent of winning the whole thing.

(02:40:29):
Thumbs up to Vesper, because Vesper likes the thumbs up thing.
Vesper also gives a thumbs up, and then just goes, your head... a stick.
Okay...
Hell, I'm never gonna let that happen, so...
Your body coming from the top of the wyvern...

(02:40:55):
She makes the thumb go down to the ground.
I was spent tonight thinking of a retort.
Good.
Have a good day.
You too.
Bye, Vesper.
Goodbye, Lucia.
They both make their exit.

(02:41:17):
Well, that was productive.
You okay?
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm used to dealing with my dad.
Yeah, I've noticed.
And I'm used to dealing with you. I'm kidding.

(02:41:41):
You just... you can't let him take an inch on any little thing, because it's never enough for him.
You just have to shut him down.
And... yeah.
And so, I hoped that he understood that we weren't going to be doing that here, but...

(02:42:04):
Who am I to get my hopes up?
So, I'll just keep dealing with it.
Well, seasons change, people change. You never know, there's still time.
Well, that's for the... that's a nice way to think about it.

(02:42:30):
Well, um...
It sounds like Brimstone's not going to be here until tomorrow.
Gotta go...
Yeah.
Either we can go relax, or look around, or go get some dinner soon, or...

(02:42:55):
Yeah, maybe check in with the rest of our house.
Talk to them about tomorrow, right?
Yeah.
I mean, we're gonna win this, right?
Absolutely.
It'd help to know what everyone else can do, right?
I think it's a good idea, we should go around and really get to know people today.

(02:43:16):
Also, I don't know if you noticed, but when it came to making the truce, I didn't say anything.
But when you did...
When you did, I felt you were very helpful.
Oh no! Oh, I meant to... no, sorry. What I meant to say that is that I can still kick their butts.

(02:43:39):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That was good. That was very strategic.
Yes, exactly!
Making them think we're friends.
Yeah, but you know, even though we are friends...
We are friends.
We are friends. We are friends.
But they're not gonna see it coming. They're gonna be like, oh, you see, heal me! I'm your ally!
And I'm gonna be like, just kidding, it's time for the Silver Lions to take over!

(02:44:03):
Witness valor.
Witness valor! Right here, right now!
Ah!
Oh boy, we're so screwed for tomorrow, let's go talk with the others!
We're not screwed, we're gonna win.
Yeah, we're gonna win! Yeah, of course! Ha ha! We're gonna win!

(02:44:27):
Don't climb out window again, we're fancy.
Um...
As you climb out the window that time, you see that the neighboring window is open
and immediately sticking her head out as soon as you make...as soon as she's waiting to ambush you.

(02:44:49):
You see...no trouble.
Oh!
Lucia flies back in!
Hey! What's up?
Why is Blush hiding?
Um, yeah.
Lucia...
I'm working on making our dolls!

(02:45:11):
For the little diorama thing of the city.
Oh, and have voodoo dolls to help you win?
That's a good idea!
Lucia, do you know anything about voodoo dolls? That's like a religious thing, right?
What?!
Okay, never mind, I was really off base.

(02:45:33):
Suck a laugh!
She just goes, what are you doing over there? Plotting?
No, not really. I mean, how much can we plot? We don't even know our house.
Mm-hmm. Making allies with all the other little pipsqueaks.
Well, I did meet D'Vorah.

(02:45:55):
Mm-hmm.
But...
What's your read?
Oh, she's like...okay.
She's...I can tell she's a goody two-shoes, because she was terrified of my dad yelling at us up here.
Um, but she's like...
I think you would need to do something about that.
She's like...she's already had her schedule booked out for like two months.

(02:46:18):
And she's...and she's mastered like five or six schools of magic.
Insane.
Hmm. So, as soon as the school year starts, she's already going to be graduating, is what you're telling me, right?
Yeah, basically. I mean, she just graduated a month ago from Solivian Academy, so...

(02:46:43):
Busy gal.
Yeah.
Really...really cool. Really sweet, I think.
Oh, and Vesper's so funny. Like, really, really nice.
They were trying to trash talk me, and they just said like,
I'm going to kill you. And then they started getting more and more detailed and gruesome about it.

(02:47:04):
They said they were gonna like string me by my innards.
So I love them already.
Alright, first years are showing up.
You're pretty confident you're gonna win, right?
Who's to say?
Willing to bet on it?
Maybe.

(02:47:25):
Okay. What do you want if you win?
When I win.
Let's see...
Hmm.
Gives a brief glance over to Phantom.
Hi Phantom.
Ruff.
When I win.

(02:47:50):
After I have you...
After I have you back deep in, you know, the muddy battlefield and...
That confident look on your face is all...
Is all flustered and all,
Is all flustered.
You realizing what ex...
You trying to figure out what exactly happened.

(02:48:11):
I want you to clean yourself up.
Take me a... take me a lap on Phantom.
A date. She just asked for a date.
Fair.

(02:48:33):
And?
And when you lose...
Oh, confidence. That's cute.
I want you to take me out on a date.
AH!

(02:49:06):
Oh my god!
Well, that's not very fair.
Now I almost want to lose.
Oh, do you?
Well, maybe that's part of my tactic.

(02:49:33):
Holds out a hand across the outside of the window.
She takes it.
Yes.
I hope you win then.
I'd love to take you out on Phantom 2, so.

(02:49:55):
But I intend to win.
People tend to do everything.
Look at that smoke on your face.
So natural.
I didn't get to grab the mirror yet.

(02:50:17):
I think there is equal satisfaction in seeing you beaten before me.
Well, you can dream about it, I guess.
Because I don't think you're going to see it anytime soon.

(02:50:42):
You can dream about me.
Wow.
Anyway, you still in there, Lucio?
Where'd you go?
The second she's, her date, she sprinted out of the room.
She's gone.
Oh, she's like, she's like, she left, left.

(02:51:02):
She goes, you know, Tata's got the good idea.
Maybe you should be a little scared of me.
Maybe but I'm just not.
I'm frightened of you.

(02:51:24):
Good.
And this guy, and she gives a little hand sign that tells Phantom to bare his teeth.
Aww.
Well, you know, I've had an uncle that's really got me used to all this stuff, so I'm a big

(02:51:55):
fan of animals.
Oh, yeah.
Maybe after and maybe after the mock battle, whatever happens, you just come to my room.
I'll show you some songs in the guitar.
Oh, no.
Oh, I'm learning.

(02:52:17):
No, don't play guitar at her.
That sounds fun.
All right.
And maybe it'll help lift your spirits afterwards.
Oh, from being so downtrodden after seeing your cute little face all beaten up.

(02:52:42):
That's what you think.
I should let you have the disillusion for now.
It's going to be devastating tomorrow.
I'll see you tomorrow.
See you around, Trouble.
Sorry, when you said I'll play guitar for you, Chad says anyway, you're so wonderful.

(02:53:20):
I still love you.
I'm so proud of you.
You guys have seen in my past videos what Foi really is like when she is sitting in the

(02:53:50):
queer femme experience. You know, everyone makes the jokes about getting a U-Haul for their first or second date.
That's them! That's them!
That's literally them! I'm like, there's the U-Haul! There it is!
It's outside!
I so rarely play characters who are this bold or this willing to be forward about stuff that I just heard.

(02:54:12):
I've never heard of- I've also- I think that's why I'm like, I've never heard any of Jenny's characters,
and we've been at like, what, four or five games together that have ever so directly stated romantic intentions.
Wild!
Like, the closest might be like, Emeline, but even she's very dancey around it too.

(02:54:32):
No! Emeline! Emeline, you didn't know until like-
She waited a long time, yeah.
Until it was like, no, actually my feelings are real, and everyone was like, whaa?
I think it's also because like, you know, like,
like, we're very like, demi also, and so like, all my characters almost are, and I'm just like, she's-
No, no, no, I have a character who is at a school and wants to go meet people and have fun and have dates and stuff, so there we go.

(02:54:58):
So, so they go! They go! They go!
And this is the one game where I was like,
Make it all these bitches hot! Let's do this!
Everybody's hot! It's part of the- It's literally part of the mechanics of this game!
You need to date! Go on, date!
Okay, Rachel, our kids from the future come back to help us fight.

(02:55:20):
Oh my god!
No. No, no, no, no.
Fire Emblem, Awakening, and Fiend.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
The children rise up.
My 50 NPCs, you're asking me to make 25 other ones.
There's- I'm like, honestly, the romance chart, there's gonna be like, it's gonna be like lines here and there.

(02:55:43):
The pent- the love pent- pentagons and whatever.
And Todd's over there.
And Todd is all the way over there, off the fucking board.
Yeah, you're- I ship you a therapy buckaroo.
See, he can ship with fucking therapy. Todd can fucking eat shit.
So, Lucia, you run away.
Oh, I- the moment she said, and you're on a date, Lucia's like, I'm leaving.

(02:56:07):
Like, it was- she didn't know.
Did she scream too, like that?
Or did she just have to step up?
I think she- no, that was- oh, no, that was Emma.
I- I think- I think Lucia-
She's a-
No, that was fully Emma.
Emma?

(02:56:30):
Lucia- Lucia- Emma screamed, Lucia ran.
That was- that was the- that was the-
Okay.
She sprinted back to her room.
You gotta- you gotta separate the art from the artist sometimes.
Gotta separate the art from the artist sometimes, guys.
My action was better than I imagined it could've been.
Yeah.
Because- because it's just- I- I- it's just- yeah.

(02:56:55):
I just-
So, as you're sprinting down outside of the building, going outside-
I'm fucking out, I'm going-
Aerith is still there.
Your daughter's going on a date! No, I'm kidding.
No running in the halls.
You see- you see outside the sun is starting to set.

(02:57:19):
And I'll turn off Saga's theme.
That's her theme song!
She's a pretty one.
You- breathing as you-
And as you're- as you head out, you see Lucio, like- like holding books, like looking- glancing at you, like sideways.

(02:57:41):
Hi, Twinsy! As she sprints past.
We're not twins.
But hello.
You eventually make good distance away from the dorm- away from all of that.
Whatever's going on there.
That's- that's- that- she doesn't- she doesn't know about dating.

(02:58:05):
That's- that's for foreign countries.
That's uncomfortable. That is- that is- that is- that is land and a world she has never traversed.
Hi! Someone brought you to your side immediately?
Yeah, no kidding!

(02:58:27):
As you see familiar faces kinda like-
I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
Kinda like approaching, like, hey!
I mean, is it?
It's- oh, the- the- you saw- you first saw him as the- as the front runner, the store runner for the- Anna's Emporium.
You see the red- the red hair.

(02:58:51):
Um, Eddie- Eddie.
Eddie- Ann.
Oh! Oh, Eddie, right.
She goes- she goes- catching her breath.
Hi! Oh!
Um- You look like you're out of breath.
I am, hello.
Can I interest you in this, uh, revitalization motion for silver?
No, it sounds like a scam, thank you.
It's not a scam.

(02:59:15):
No, thank you.
Are you alright?
I- yeah, I'm good, I'm good.
Wipes the sweat off her forehead.
How are you?
Well, I'm do- Is this as well?
Hmm?
Is this going well?
Yeah, absolutely.
Awesome.

(02:59:37):
I was actually coming here to look for someone to help deliver something into a fawn real quick.
To who?
Oh, it's a, um, it's an apothecary.
Um- Oh!
It was because it's something from us and we're a little late.
Me and my sister are kind of like hunkered down here with something over at the greenhouse, so, um, do you know anybody who can, like,
just, you know, sprint down the mountain and head over to the fawn?

(03:00:03):
Looks around.
Well, I was supposed to go meet with my other house members, but, well-
But you can do this, is what you're saying.
She does not absolutely-
She completely misses that he's leading her into this task completely.
Well, I mean, not.

(03:00:25):
I mean, not.
I'm sure-
I can give you the revitalization potion for free.
We can discuss rates.
How does seven silver pieces go?
Wait, so I have to pay for it still while I'm doing this task for you?
No, I'm paying you.
You see?

(03:00:47):
No, no, no, I want the- I thought you were getting the potion, though.
Oh, I'm also giving you the potion as part of it, yeah.
Oh, give me five of those potions and I'll do it.
Persuasion check.
Listen, we've got a mock battle tomorrow.

(03:01:09):
You really gotta win now.
We really have to win now.
I'm afraid those potions are- they dictate a lot more value than just, you know-
It's a lot of effort that goes into these things made from our local- made from our local potion maker guild.
Three.
Two.

(03:01:31):
Two.
Two and a medkit.
So you've been paying attention to our promotions because you do get a free medkit.

(03:01:53):
I'll take it.
Alright, deal.
Deal.
So, you are a lifesaver and here is- here are- here is the sack.
It's full of stuff.
You need to take it to a place called- it's called the Bee's Honey or something like that.
Let me look at my list.

(03:02:15):
Bee's Honey.
Take it to the Bee's Honey.
Bee's Honey.
Flips it over her shoulder that she remembers the name.
Bee's Honey.
You got it.
I'm down for you.
Now it's- Jake said Bee's Honey.
Bee's Honey.
Alright, thank you again.
Hey, once you're done with that, come back to us for your payment.

(03:02:37):
Bee's Honey.
Bee's Honey.
Bee's Honey.
I'm running you down.
Um, write it down.
It's spelled the B's like the letter B apostrophe S space honey.
Cute.

(03:02:59):
That's cute.
That's adorable.
I love that.
This music is fun.
Come check out my store.
Come let me swindle you.
Come on.
I want all your money.
We're gonna get a bingo here.
I know it.
Timmy knows which one I'm thinking of.

(03:03:21):
Uh.
I don't know.
Um.
Gives you the sack.
Alright.
Thank you again, Lucia.
See ya, Frankie.
Eddie.
Freddy.
I literally just- okay.

(03:03:43):
Frankie.
I like it.
Honey, knees, honey, knees, honey, knees.
I literally wrote it down.
And you're heading out?
Yeah.
Okay, I will say this takes an entire trip.
Oh no.
You'll be heading out.
Out of the academy.

(03:04:05):
All the way past the fields.
Into the town.
Oh no.
Me and my melora's looking for Lucia who ran off.
Sprinted.
Well, listen, we need the two health potions.
And the med kit.
So I'll take it.
So are you gonna go off?
Yeah.
Gonna get us some shit.

(03:04:27):
Um.
So Lucia, you are
ready to bring this shit
home.
As you begin to- oh god.
When it gets dark,
it is properly lit.
But man, there's so much mountain to go down.
Ah!
Um.
And you do hear someone.

(03:04:49):
Like there's a student just go, slow down.
No time!
He flies down.
You're gonna
hurt yourself.
I don't have time for this!
She's still taking time.
Cause you're supposed to have a meeting
with the rest of their house.
So she's trying to get it all done.
Um. As you rush down,

(03:05:11):
Lucia, knowing that like, even
full sprinting, this entire
thing could be like, hours.
Um. Oh no!
Um.
Cause you still have to search for the place.
It's a pretty big town.
Ah shit, do I take this task?
Velora, you're
looking for Lucia?
Uh huh. Pink hair, pink hair.

(03:05:33):
Flying on fandom.
And you do walk by
two students, one of them goes like,
my hair kinda looks like cotton candy.
Where?
What?
Where'd she go? The cotton candy?
You can't actually eat it, that's her hair.
No, I know, I know.
Oh, okay.
Um, she sprinted

(03:05:55):
out that
way, and then talked to somebody,
and then sprinted
all the way down the stairs.
Why is she sprinting? Okay, well, um,
thanks.
Shooosh, fly.
With fandom.
This is actually appropriate to how I
game, I never, my characters never walk.
I always, I'm like, I always have them

(03:06:17):
sprint everywhere. You want to get done. You need the
toast. You need the, exactly.
If there is a jump button, then every
NPC's gonna be like, why is that guy
sprinting and jumping everywhere
like a fucking madman?
Correct, correct.
Um, as you, as you
begin to head out with, uh,
as you, as you begin to head out with, um,
phantom, you need to fly to chase

(03:06:39):
after that fleeting image
of Lucia,
who is, for some reason, sprinting
down the fucking mountain.
Hahahaha.
Um,
you do, uh, you do see,
uh,
you do see, uh, coming
across you guys, ah,

(03:07:01):
later, ducking me, are we?
Hm?
You see Marcellus.
Oh!
Hey Marcellus.
While I made it was very
impress, it was very impressive
you standing up to Cat Wollater like that,
um, I don't
necessarily,
I don't necessarily appreciate

(03:07:23):
the, the, I
didn't notice that there was a little bit of avoiding
me. Avoiding?
No, I was looking for you.
Well, before I was looking for Lucia, who
sprinted out of my room
randomly before we were gonna go
looking for the other silver lions.
And now she's running down the
stairs. She shouldn't do that,
that's not really safe.

(03:07:45):
Yeah, we've heard the mock battle too,
no less.
I haven't- Well,
it seems like we have to win now.
Yes, of course.
We are going to do that.
They keep talking
about each other.
I'm not meaning to.
It's so funny though!

(03:08:09):
It's so funny.
Because they're completely like, whew!
Her brain just moved fast because she's also
trying to think of going to check on
Lucia.
Um, yes,
we are going to, we are going to win
the mock battle.
I do trust in your leadership that much.

(03:08:31):
But I think, um,
once I make sure Lucia's-
Lucia, yes, correct.
Lucia, yes, you were talking-
You were talking about Lucia.
Oh, yeah, well-
Yes.
Well, once I make sure Lucia's-
About Lucia, yes,
you can go first.
No, no, you go first.

(03:08:53):
No, you.
No, no.
No, you were talking to me about how you're going to lose.
Okay, but you were talking-
No, I was not talking about that.
I made no claim that I was going to lose.
That's where you were going though.
They even compete in conversation!
Huh?
They even compete in conversation!

(03:09:17):
You go first.
No, you go first.
No, you go first.
Perhaps I can-
I should get to the point because-
Ha. Anyways-
Oh, ha? Like you want something?
Nevermind.
Okay, seriously, I need to check on Lucia.
But-
You don't have anything going on tonight, do you?

(03:09:39):
I don't.
Oh, well, do you want to add
a little, um,
scheduled loss
to your plans tonight?
Hm.
Hm.
A scheduled loss, indeed, but
not for me.
Hm.
I don't want to know- I wouldn't know who then.

(03:10:01):
Anyways, do you want to come with me for-
Oh, yes.
I will come with you, however.
Oh, cool. Um.
Here. Unless he has Maximus
with him. Like, here, hop on.
Hm.
Um, uh, as
he hops on, you see, uh,
you see
accidentally, um, Phantom's

(03:10:23):
tail kind of like- kind of like
waves into his face, like, oh!
Hello!
Careful, Phantom, I'm not strapping him in.
Unless you want-
Unless you want to. You're experienced
at flying, though, so I'm not too worried about you.
Oh, no, I can keep you safe if you wish.
Okay.
Come on!

(03:10:45):
Look for a little pink dot.
Her hair is
quite vivid.
It makes it really easy to find her from the air.
This is greatly to our benefit.
Yeah.
It's getting dark, though, but
still.
Um.
As you get to the- as you get to the bottom,

(03:11:07):
uh, Lucia,
um, you do see
that there are a few, like,
you see, uh,
what the fuck is the name?
Um, you see that there is a, um,
a few wagons down at the very
bottom. Um,
they weren't there- they weren't there in the morning,
but you have a feeling that they're out there when people
are more out there free, and there's a- there's a small fleet

(03:11:29):
of them, and it says, Javix
Cab Service.
Um, hello,
excuse me!
Um, you see
a, s-
a man, sallow,
in face, cheeks,
kinda like pushed in,
kinda like looks towards you, his eyes
deeply sunken, he's wearing, like, a cap,

(03:11:51):
and he just goes,
hello.
Hi!
Need a ride to Lafond?
Uh, I
need to go to the Keys Fleas.
No.
Hop in.
Thank you!
That's not a real place that he's letting you in.

(03:12:13):
Oh no.
He just goes,
uh, and he just goes,
do you have anything?
Um, as you hop into this
wagon with plush chairs,
um, and it's nice,
um, you do see, like, there's, like, a service
like list, like the price and stuff,
um, and you see,
you see Irobrin students get, like,

(03:12:35):
free rides, basically.
Oh, cool!
I didn't bring any money, so that's good!
So what place did you,
what place did you say again?
Uh, the Keys Fleas.
You, uh,
you have anything where it's spelled?

(03:12:57):
Uh, yeah, right here.
Hands over the paper.
I know this place.
He gives the paper back.
Awesome! Not the Keys Fleas.
You're not from around here, are you?
No, sir, I am from a small town

(03:13:19):
that I have in my notes,
if you give me one second.
I,
I'm from, uh,
a village bordering on a lore
and an era.
Oh.
So,
you're a Taurus then?
Nope, I am a student!
I am a retainer of the Silver Lions

(03:13:41):
and of Valora Avonlea,
the house leader.
I see.
Um, as the,
What's up with the music?
Am I getting kidnapped?
He holds the reins, and he just goes,
No!

(03:14:03):
He looks back, and he just goes,
The doors are locked for your safety.
Okay, thank you.
And the horses move.
You don't mind if I smoke, do you?
Um, I don't mind for myself,

(03:14:25):
but for your own personal health,
let's talk about how many,
how often do you smoke a day?
Enough
to keep myself calm.
So, I just go,
I turn into
a not so nice person
when I'm not calm.

(03:14:47):
I understand that.
So, but I do want to advocate for you
that what you're experiencing
and why the smoking probably calms you down
is because it's all linked to
somatic breathing, right?
So, there are other things like
herbal, um, pipes,
stuff that doesn't require the, um,
the addictive properties of other...

(03:15:11):
Just not really good for your lung health,
but, you know, kudos to you.
So,
what do you have in that bag of yours?
A package.
Okay.
Yeah, I'm just delivering
something for some potions.
I need some health potions tomorrow,

(03:15:33):
because we have the mock battle.
Mock battle?
Yeah, have you heard of it at the school?
Yeah,
I've heard of it.
Yeah, by the way, I'm Lucia.
Lucia.
Lucia.
What's your name?

(03:15:57):
When you ask the name,
you just continue to drive.
Sorry.
Can you say that one more time?
What's your name?
Casper.
Casper.

(03:16:19):
Casper.
Casper.
There was once a tale told in my village
about a friendly ghost named Casper.
about a friendly ghost named Casper.
Did he look like me?
Did he look like me?
She peeks around.
She peeks around.
Not really, but...
His head, like,

(03:16:41):
there's almost like a creaking sound effect
when he turns back towards you.
His eyes are so intense.
Um, a little bit.
I'm sure you're very friendly.
He turns to the front,
and as he does that, you feel
a bump in the back.

(03:17:03):
a bump in the back.
Did you hear something?
Did you hear something?
I did. Yeah, do you...
Is there something back here?
You know,
sometimes the road gets a little bumpy.
sometimes the road gets a little bumpy.
I get that.
I get that. It just felt like really loud,
like there's something...

(03:17:27):
Is there something else back here?
Is there something else back here?
I wouldn't worry about it.
I wouldn't worry about it.
Can I look?
Make a stealth check first.
Make a stealth check first.
Am I actually getting kidnapped?
I thought he was just being silly.
Am I actually getting kidnapped?
Am I actually getting kidnapped?

(03:17:49):
Am I actually getting kidnapped?
18.
18.
Isn't this the Brando music?
Isn't this the Brando music?
I keep winning.
Shit!
That was a high roll for me.
As you move to look,
you catch the
intense, zeroed-in

(03:18:11):
look as he's
side-eyeing you.
I just want to make sure that
I just want to make sure that
nothing got hit, you know?
To keep hitting big bumps.
You're a curious kid, aren't you?
I am. I am a follower
of a dune, the goddess of
spring and youth and vitality herself.
So I'm just naturally curious that way.

(03:18:33):
Take a hint from me.
You ever hear
You ever hear
the saying, curiosity killed the cat?
the saying, curiosity killed the cat?
I have, but I'm not a cat.
I have, but I'm not a cat.
You might start looking like one.
Really?

(03:18:55):
Oh, I've heard about that.
Druids, I do know a bit of
druidic magic, and she just
flower petals in the air with druidcraft.
I don't know how to do
a full animal
transformation. The smoke blows away
the druidcraft.
You a noble kid or something?

(03:19:17):
You said you were from a
small village.
Nope, not a noble at all.
Are you?
Would I be
would I be driving cabs if I was?
I don't know.
I tend to think that some nobles
have a really sad life.

(03:19:39):
You see that
the tension sort of softens
at that.
Really?
Yeah. That was what it took?
Yeah, legitimately.
Why do you say that?
They got everything that they can want.
Well, yeah,
I mean materialistically, right?
And she's kind of like

(03:20:01):
her feet are kind of, as she's sitting on the
bench, her feet are kind of kicking and
swinging on the edge.
Realistically, but
there's so much pressure.
Like, you don't really get a choice.
You know?
I kind of have to do
what, you know,
is dictated in there.
I don't, I

(03:20:23):
it's just, I don't know, it seems kind of
sad and low. Plus, plus
as she peeks out from, you know,
peeks out behind him.
Plus, you don't know if people are friends with you
because they actually like you
or because they need something from you, you know?
Yeah.
Guess I can understand that.
Yeah.

(03:20:47):
Because
the people who got everything, though,
they tend to cause
a lot of suffering.
They do?
I'm not gonna waste your time, kid.
We're almost to your location.
No, no, it's okay.
And she's kind of like coming up behind her

(03:21:09):
I'm here to help.
But yeah.
Thanks for riding with
Javik's Cab Service.
Sorry for the deer in the back.

(03:21:33):
Apparently I didn't do a good enough job.
Oh.
Yeah.
Some of us.
We gotta hunt
or I'll keep.
The next time, just try to shoot it right in the head
because that's what will kill an animal quickest.
That way it won't suffer and be in much pain.

(03:21:57):
Got it.
Thanks for the advice, kid.
Thanks for the advice, kid.
Thank you, Casper.
Pops down.
Door's unlocked.
Thank you.
Is the door unlocked?
It is.
Pops out with her package.

(03:22:19):
Till next time.
I wanna move to Florida
so I can be closer to Disney World.
What's a Florida?
What's a Florida?
One of the
one of the nine hells.
What else?
Circles of nine hells!
What else?
Here's Avernus

(03:22:41):
and then Florida.
Detroit, which is part of Michigan.
Apparently.
Apparently.
My dad does not know that Chicago is not a state
of the art.
My dad does not know that Chicago is not a state
or Detroit's not a state.
Really?
English is like a language, isn't it?
My siblings who were born in Las Vegas

(03:23:03):
but were raised in Kansas
and didn't know much about it because they were foster kids
they thought that
Las Vegas was a state.
Listen, I get it.
Yeah.
I can understand the confusion.
You make your way out
of the wagon
of like what the fuck happened?
Asper's my friend.

(03:23:25):
I don't care what anyone says.
He gave Lucien
no reason to be afraid.
And you walk out into the bright lights
of Hefann.
People bustling.
Life thrumming.
There's people around everywhere.
Smoke, spice, fills the

(03:23:47):
air as your
lungs and
nose are
assaulted with like
the smell of like street food being
cooked and
you're allergic to street food.
No, just many spices in the air.
This place is

(03:24:09):
this place is thriving.
It is like one of the most busiest places
that you've seen outside of Ayurveda already.
This is
comparable to the city of
Tukor when it's like rush
when it's like rush time.
But there's no like high rise buildings that are way
taller than you. It's mostly just
pretty low down.

(03:24:31):
Pretty humble stuff.
Velora
flying from above.
Make a perception check.
I'm not thinking
she could have gotten that far.
Well, you said she was
sprint. Well, that's suppose.
I rolled a seven.
Well, I'm going to go ahead.
Well, I can roll a plus two because of my

(03:24:53):
personal skill. I saw you.
And I rolled one
better than you.
What the fuck, Marcellus?
Look, there she is.
He points. And so that's
enough. The eight's enough.
An eight's enough but not a seven.
I have decided.
There's no way.
I have decided for comedy

(03:25:15):
sake.
Like, why are you looking
over there? She's over there.
I'm glad we covered both sides
then since I got this side.
We make a good
team. That was the most
unfair DM decision I've ever
made because I had the DC
in my head.

(03:25:37):
And when I saw the guy
one over you, I was like, that's a DC
actually. That counts.
That counts.
His body did not beat
the DC.
He wouldn't have beat me if I didn't go first.
Because his special, his
personal skill is that when he sees someone

(03:25:59):
do a skill, he rolls.
He gets one. Oh, stop.
That's obnoxious. He gets a bonus.
Which is why he was copying me the whole
time. Yeah, he gets a plus two
to the roll. If you see somebody
else do it during the course of the day.
So wild.
So you would have rolled one lower than me.
I could do it. It's literally that character.

(03:26:21):
I hate him.
Todd's off the shit. Todd's
moved to the
bottom of the shit list. We got a new top
10. Marcellus is like a fun
one to kill though. Todd, it's like, no,
it's on site. Maybe we shouldn't kill
Marcellus.

(03:26:45):
Maybe we shouldn't
off our butts so early, so early
on.
You feel, you are just about to
spot before you see Marcellus's finger, goes like
oh, there she is.
Flies down.
And before you know it, Lucia,
you are descended upon by a

(03:27:07):
gray,
gray figure. And you see
Lucia.
Hi, Phantom.
Why were you running? What's wrong?
How did you get so far?
Oh, that was my friend Casper.
So I have a
package. She holds up the package.
Because in exchange, I would

(03:27:29):
get two potions and a healing
kit and I need all the supplies that
I need, that I can possibly get
for tomorrow's mock battle.
Oh, wow.
Okay, yeah, that's, that's very
resourceful of you. Where are you
delivering it? Uh, the keys,
please.
I haven't heard of...

(03:27:51):
The both of you look up and around to
like, you and Marcellus
look up and around and you see that she's right
next to the bees, honey.
But that's not anything
close to what she said, so I'm still looking
around.
Um, I've never
heard of a place like that.

(03:28:13):
Well, I don't know. This is where
my slip of paper dropped me off.
What's the slip of paper?
Here, hands it to you.
Bees, honey.
Oh. It might
occur to you that maybe,
yeah, maybe some commoner
don't know how to read.
I don't know.

(03:28:35):
Wait, um,
do you...
Lucia, um, yeah,
no offense. Um,
there's nothing wrong.
There's nothing wrong if you...
There's
something wrong if you can't.
But, um, do you know how to read?
Oh, yeah,
I know how to read. Sure!

(03:28:57):
I said there's nothing wrong if you can't. Why did you
say sure?
How many fingers am I holding up?
That's
insensitive. I know how to count.
Oh! Sorry.
Three.
Cheese.
Yeah, I can read.

(03:29:21):
Insight check.
Lucia,
if you want,
you can make a persuasion
or a deception.
You can make your strong
character choice right now.
I rolled a net 20, 24.
She's lying.

(03:29:43):
It's a fucking deception!
I love watching
in front of me
Emma Romasko
making a decision,
improv-ing it right now,
in, what, like the eighth,
seventh episode, that
hey, I got
an idea.

(03:30:11):
I don't know what fucking Foddly's
is. I don't know any of that shit.
Why would I fucking need to know how to read?
The gods will give me
whatever I need.
Lucia, you're more,
I think you're more acquainted with the
actual ancient language of,

(03:30:33):
that you pray to and read,
like, you know,
the, like, the North
Bible. It's like Latin. She's only,
she only knows Latin, essentially.
I can read.
Oh, yeah, right.
It's
totally okay if

(03:30:55):
you can't, because
we should work on that.
Yeah, I mean, but like, who
really needs to know how to read?
Well, at school.
Her eyes
go wide.
You're acting like you just realized
that.

(03:31:17):
We'll do our work together, okay?
Gods.
And we'll work on it.
I'll also help the best
I can.
Really, Marcellus? Of course, you're my
classmate.
Aw, that's kind of you.
It's, it, it truly is
the bare minimum.

(03:31:39):
That's
a fair point.
But people tend to learn pretty fast when I try to
teach them things. I do lots of training
for our employees and stuff, so.
Well, perhaps I can- But I appreciate the help.
Well, perhaps I can observe
what you do, and perhaps I can
add on to it.
Yeah.
Yes.

(03:32:01):
I'm sure you do great at adding on to it.
Yes.
Okay, I should really stop
because I've just gotten into the habit
because it's really nice of you.
I apologize. I'm very sorry. No, no, no. I apologize.
I've been very rude.
No, I do not accept- Yeah, you have.
No, I do not accept your apology.
I do not accept
your apology?

(03:32:23):
I vehemently
refuse your apology.
Oh my god.
Alright, well this is the place, so.
Yes, it is.
Woohoo!
Let's go get those potions, am I right?
I feel like they've known each other for years.
I feel like they've known each other for years.
It's-

(03:32:45):
It's absolutely childhood
rivals.
It's so strong, such a strong
relationship already.
I didn't even notice that-
I hope it doesn't get deleted from the game.
Oh, freak.
Emma said like, oh, they're talking
about- I didn't even notice that. I was like, okay, now we're
gonna really do it.
And Dragbyre is like, it's like they're already married,

(03:33:07):
correct. It's adding-
the triangle has fully formed.
Oh, here. Let me get
that for you. Opens the door for the both of you.
Why was- what a
gentleman. Thank you, Marcellus.
Yeah, okay.
Thanks.
She looks back.
Leans in as you move-
as you walk by, the Lord goes,

(03:33:29):
notice how I made it to the door first.
Oh, I
wasn't trying, so-
Oh.
I noticed.
Yeah.
Shall we?
Alright, so who did you bring this- who do you need to bring this to?

(03:33:51):
Just- just in here?
You walk into this apothecary,
um,
a little assortment of, like,
um,
assortment of pots
and such in front of you. This- this place has sort of like a cute
kind of like
a cute aesthetic. You see little,
um, you see that
there is like a small, like,

(03:34:13):
woven cauldron,
and on top of it is like a
a wool bee
with like a little witch's hat, and
That's so cute!
And next to it is like a little, like,
like a little ladle.
Um, the place is
very well appointed. It's presented
nicely. Um-
Hey, Lysia, the bee makes the potions here.

(03:34:35):
What?!
She sprints over and looks at the bee.
Um,
and you hear
coming from the back,
he goes, well, that is
the namesake of this place.
Um,
walking-
walking from the back,

(03:34:57):
um, the door opens.
Uh, as you see,
um, coming out of the back
rooms of this humble place, I would say the front of the place is pretty
cramped. It's like not- not too big.
Um,
but, uh, it seems to me there's
much more space in the back.
Uh, as this
as this woman walks out,
long, black hair,

(03:35:19):
uh, also,
you've seen a lot of pale people today,
but this person's also, uh,
uh, this person's also pale,
little- little freckles,
uh, has glasses on,
a gentle smile.
What are her teeth like? What are her teeth like?
Can't see that. Uh,
There are a lot of vampires in this town?
Is that why? Bingo, bingo, bingo, bingo, bingo.

(03:35:41):
It's a bingo.
It's a bingo that only Timmy and I
would know. I'm convinced
it's her. She, um,
she goes,
hello, you lot.
Anything you're
anything you're interested in
as of now?
Actually, something

(03:36:03):
should be of interest to you!
And she held out her package. Delivery!
Oh, from Honor's Emporium?
Yes! From, uh, Teddy.
Teddy!
Hmm.
Alright, so Nick- says nicknames.
He does make a lot of friends.
Thank you.
I've been waiting for this one.

(03:36:25):
He goes, and I suppose
I'll have to
just give my payment.
Here you go.
Um,
hands you ten platinum.

(03:36:47):
Are you trying to make the sound of a bee?
No longer a bee.
Like, very quickly, not
became a bee. Yeah, she's really creative.
Has she ever held platinum before?
Man,
probably not.
Give it to Valora.
Oh, um,

(03:37:09):
thanks for looking at this, too.
Um, what's your name again?
Oh,
my name is Luca.
Knew it! I knew it!
I knew it! I knew it!
Oh, who- oh, Luca Camion!
Oh, I'm sorry.
Oh, who- oh, Luca Cameo
is on the bingo. Wait, but who is Luca?
What is the deal? She was from the

(03:37:31):
Irobrin game that takes place ten years later.
She is a vampire who I killed.
And she's been a cameo in the other
Irobrin game, too. That's why I put it on.
Oh, she's evil?
Yeah, she is.
She is so
bad, she stole my friend's blood,
and was experimenting with it, and
she had- She's evil-knevel!

(03:37:53):
She had tons of, like,
of, like,
ghouls and vampires, like,
children she starved to death that turned them dead.
What the fuck?! And stuff.
Yeah.
Well, get us the fuck out of here.
Spoilers. Um,
so, a person
who you see who didn't do
any of that, uh,

(03:38:15):
as far as you know.
Nah, I don't know anything. I go, thank you for your delivery!
Someone in the chat goes, she's a girl boss.
Ha ha ha ha ha!
This is not the girl boss we want or need!
I held her in the sunlight.
It was so cool.
Oh, Jesus.
So he goes, thank you so much for your service, and
hopefully we look forward to working with you in the future!

(03:38:37):
Um, can I
ask you to come to the-
If it's alright for bonus payment for all of you,
I'll pay you a little bit extra.
If you can help sort some of the stuff-
This stuff is labeled, it should be easy,
but I'm just on a little bit of a time crunch here.
What do you need me to do?
Oh, just um,
put the stuff where it's-
you should see like there's an assortment of stuff back there.

(03:38:59):
Just group the items, just like, sort my stuff for me if that's okay.
Oh, like, file it away.
I can do that real quick, yeah?
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, well, we can help.
Yeah, of course.
He goes,
Flora Avonlea!
Oh, yeah.
That's me.
Nice to meet you.

(03:39:21):
It's nice to meet you too.
Says, you are unmistakable.
Heh, well,
aw man, this is my retainer.
Bye!
Pleasure.
He goes, what are you doing
delivering supplies?
Well, I struck up a deal
with Freddy, and I need

(03:39:43):
as much health potions as I
can for tomorrow's mock battle.
So now it's like we're kind of getting
stored up.
Hmm.
I hate
to be the
sort of adventurous
here, but
if I could set you up with a few
potions myself

(03:40:05):
of my own making,
would you perhaps
tell your friends all about
what you got, where you got them from?
Oh, like you want me to like be like
a commercial?
Yes.
I can do that, yeah. You have the voice for it.
Thank you so much!
You do have the

(03:40:27):
voice for it. Waaah!
Yeah.
Everyone just loves my
voice so much! It must be so
soothing! One more thing.
Yeah.
One more thing.
I have
healing services here as well.
I do
tend to people

(03:40:49):
and if anything would happen, you have, of course,
all the way up there.
You know,
all the health in the world and
everything for you, but
if you ever have anything, perhaps
more specialized and you want a more personal
look to it, then
feel free to come here.
Well, Lucie is very skilled with that stuff
too, so

(03:41:11):
always good to know who to go
to when it's needed.
Alright, I shouldn't keep you any
longer, but thank you again
for doing this for me.
Does you want to know who that
guy is? She points at herself.
Oh, hello!
Yes, I must-

(03:41:33):
Yes, I must say this. I held the door.
I held the door!
Oh, is that an official role of door holder?
Well, that would be
the best at it.
Yeah, he is the best at holding
doors since he's good at staying behind
people and watching
them walk away.

(03:41:57):
Because I had already gotten
to the finish line and I don't feel
the need to
brag because I lost.
Whatever, dude.
Whatever makes you feel comfortable.
I feel like there's something here. This is not going to get
in the way of organizing
a few things in the back, is it?
No, no, let's do that organizing real quick.
She says looking at

(03:42:19):
Marcellus.
I can certainly do that.
I might be able to finish it
before he gets very far, but
show us
what you need to organize.
I sincerely doubt that because have you seen her hair?
What do you mean about my hair?
I'm kidding.

(03:42:41):
No, what did you mean, though?
Walking to the back.
No, you're just trying
to distract me. I get in front of him.
I think Valora has great hair.
I think so, too, trying to get
in front of Valora.
I have high movement speed.
Okay, alright,
everyone, let's stop.
Make a content

(03:43:03):
athletic or acrobatics check.
Acrobatics,
I can't roll lower than a 10.
And I get expertise,
I think.
I think, I think.
Where the heck does it say?
Yeah, expertise on acrobatics checks.

(03:43:25):
That was lower than a 10,
so I get to add, I rolled a 10
plus 2, so 12, but
then that's 5 short of 10,
so it's
12 plus 5 is 17.
He rolled a 16!
Yes!
Okay, I'm sorry,
this is weird, like the dice are clearly trying

(03:43:47):
to tell a story with these two,
and it's really fucking weird.
It's really weird.
It's really weird.
You get to do the door for us.
He just goes, ah!
Just trying to get through.
Luca hands.
Because they're too focused on getting to the door.

(03:44:09):
Luca hands you the supplies,
Lucia.
Uh, thanks guys,
can you, okay, alright, whatever.
And she's just gonna go, just gonna start talking to us.
Oh my, I apologize for
Valora.
Okay, both of you get away from me!
And she's gonna go over to her own
corner, cause they're both
being weird.

(03:44:31):
Okay, no, no, no, let me help, let me help organize.
Yes, I will also assist.
Well this obviously
goes here, and
I should've moved her away a little bit while I'm like
pretending to look for something.
Trying to push you against me as well.
As
they're competing, and
Lucia, you're just in the back.

(03:45:01):
Um,
you see the door to the storm room
is closed, it's not locked. It's not locked.
Um, it's not anything,
nothing suspicious is happening.
This is the second time you've had to aware
that the doors aren't locked
off the room I'm in. We can't get too suspicious
of her cause we can't kill her right now
because she dies in the future.
Um,

(03:45:23):
I think the only thing Lucia's suspicious about is that
she's like, I'm a really good healer, and Lucia's
like, well you haven't met me, babe.
As, um,
as the two
of them are kind of like
shouldering each other and trying to like, no, we
they're competitively
organizing, which is a thing
you didn't know was a thing. Um,
you hear the bell

(03:45:45):
ring to the door open.
And
Lucia as you are
um,
Lucia as you are
sitting next to the door,
we're gonna take a very
quick, very very quick
like five minute break.
Five minutes to get water.
Very quick.

(03:46:07):
Because suddenly
Tim has to run.
Real quick
because this is
what is happening to me.
Okay, everyone will be right back.
This is really unprecedented. The game's almost over,
but we'll be right back.
Okay.
Hello, everyone.
Welcome back.

(03:46:29):
I'm alive.
It's okay. Everything was okay.
I just had a biscoff cheesecake earlier.
Um, and
it was knocking on the door.
It was asking for
it was asking for dividends.
Oh,
anyways,
very close.
So close to the end. I was

(03:46:51):
like, I gotta go.
We're this close.
You hear
the bell to the
the front door
to the store open.
It rings.
Um, you hear
hello, welcome to
Metis.
Um,

(03:47:13):
you, um,
Metis?
Uh, for
if
do you think Lucia has done
studies on like the roster at all?
Like, at least what the who like the
the faculty are, the important people,
you think?
No.

(03:47:35):
Not if she can't really
read. Um,
oh, yeah, forgot about that.
Um,
This choice that I
made
is gonna bite me in the ass.
You committed so hard. I love that.
Love that for you.
Um,
you hear

(03:47:57):
Metis.
And you hear
another voice go,
um, hey, Luca.
You, um,
you alone right now?
I mean,
I, and then you see
through like the small glass
porthole to the door.
Um,

(03:48:19):
woman comes up to Luca
and just full on leans in
kisses her full on.
I'm scared for this woman.
Black hair, uh,
black, uh, black hair,
um,
uh, black hair, um,
a little
a little on the

(03:48:41):
shorter side.
She leans out.
She's just
sorry. Um, I just
Oh, she's charmed by the vampire.
I just really needed to see you.
You, um,
you smell like alcohol.
Uh oh.

(03:49:03):
Yeah, I
I'm just nervous.
I don't know if I can do this.
If I could teach these kids.
Oh, Jesus. She's having
a professor breakdown.
You got this.
You're brilliant.
You know that?
If,

(03:49:25):
if I was successful,
I wouldn't be at this
job.
Hey,
we'll talk later.
Okay.
I got the leader
and the retainer of the
Silver Lions in the back right now and also their door boy.

(03:49:47):
Oh, um,
yeah, you didn't let me answer if
I was alone. You just said.
Oh, um,
I'm so sorry.
Um,
yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Um,
I'll talk to you

(03:50:09):
later.
You can stop by my place later if you want.
Give you some pointers.
Jesus.
Sorry, hit the microphone.
Jesus goes.
I gotta go figure out my lesson plan.

(03:50:31):
I got a big.
I got this huge prodigy
as the leader.
All right.
Well, I'll see you around then.
Yeah, it's really good seeing you.
Yeah,
it's really good seeing you.

(03:50:57):
Walks out.
You saw that.
Let me see.
Oh, wow.
Done. I did more. I did more.
No, I did. No, I did. No, I definitely did.
I counted. No, I was counting too.
I was counting more.
Oh, really? What was your number?
How much do you count?

(03:51:19):
Who's the prodigy leader?
Uh,
what?
Which one of the leaders
is a prodigy?
Oh, D'Vorah.
That, well, from, I mean, if I had to guess.
Vesper seems really talented too.
Are we assigned like a faculty

(03:51:41):
member?
Yeah, we have, um, we met our teacher
yesterday, remember?
Lambert Grantham?
That's right. No, no, that's the wrong
No, Lambert Grantham. No, that's the right name. It was right.
Okay. Well,
there was just a professor in there
who was fishing
shop lady. And she
was drunk.

(03:52:03):
Oh. Oh.
Well, I mean, that's none of our business,
is it? Really? No,
but I'm just telling you. Well,
thanks.
What was her name?
Uh.
You heard Metis.
Oh. Metis.
Oh.

(03:52:25):
Yeah, that's the Crimson
Griffin's teacher,
I think. Yeah, she seems really
stressed out.
Hmm.
I wonder why.
I suppose the
I suppose the regulars of Ivar Brinn
are more
heavy on those running the
place more than anything.

(03:52:49):
I've just never thought a professor
would be scared of the students.
You think she's
scared of the students?
Well, not the students, but like, responsibility.
You said she didn't think she was
like, she was worried she wasn't good enough or something.
Hmm.
That's wild. I never thought a professor
would ever think that, you know?
Well, you know, people

(03:53:11):
people can have doubts
no matter what their station is and
no matter how long.
I mean, it even comes from my mom sometimes.
You know, she doesn't let it control her
usually, but I see it sometimes.
She makes a little mistake and she
thinks she's all of a sudden like
the worst lord to ever
grace our family name or whatever
and she's absolutely not.

(03:53:33):
You know?
I see that too in my parents.
Up and above nights.
People always
acknowledge the little
chips in their armor. It's just a very human
thing to do.
But it's up to us to
rise up to the occasion.

(03:54:01):
Yes, sir!
Anyway, are you guys done?
Lucille, who put more?
Well, I suppose if your retainer can decide, then

(03:54:23):
I think my house is cleaner though, at least.
Oh, is it?
Oh, really? Oh, that's
sloppiness right there you can't notice?
No, mine...
Yours
isn't even like... that's not all lined up evenly.
It's like you
rushed to do it.
Well, I couldn't help but...
You're right.

(03:54:45):
You're right, you're right, you're right, we should go.
You're right, you're right, you're right.
See his anime
little symbol is booked.
I'm not sure if it's
symbol is booked.
Whoever won the race
wins this too.
And what...

(03:55:07):
Quickly, watch the door.
Give me a free victory then.
I should be saying that...
Opens the door.
Oh, thanks.
Thank you,
Marcellus. You're welcome.
Certainly.

(03:55:29):
It is what somewhat of my station
would do.
What does that mean?
I'm being chivalrous.
I am expected to be a knight after all.
Well, then I'll do it too.
Certainly.
Certainly.
And Luca goes,

(03:55:51):
everything got organized? That was very
quick.
Oh, potions please.
I have them for you here.
And hands each of you
a small sack.
Thank you.
Add two lesser

(03:56:13):
healing potions to your inventories.
Yeah, heck in the heck yeah.
Our first
brand sponsor.
What do they call it? What are those called?
Sponsorships?
Brand deals?
Brand deals? Like when social media
people get like promo stuff?
You know what I'm talking about?
Uh-huh.

(03:56:35):
What are they?
Like the boxes.
Yeah, merch? No, not merch.
What's it?
It's like a promo
box or something.
Enter this promo code.
A something kit.
Yes. A media
kit? Media kit.

(03:56:57):
Yep, media kit.
No, that's not what I'm thinking of too.
No, maybe it is.
I think it is. I don't know
that's real because I'm just
hearing words I've heard before.
Yeah.
You guys get what I'm saying though.
We got you. We got you.
You got me. We're all confused.
We're all confused.

(03:57:19):
Marcia was like, well, some must another.
Bitch.
Bitch!
You little bitch!
Look at us. Thank you.
Thank you all again.
Thank you.
Have a good day now.

(03:57:41):
And
you too.
Another thing too, but
you know, people are always in need of blood.
So if you ever wish to donate
any, of course, not now,
but if you ever wish to donate any,
just let me know.
Keep it in mind.
Thank you.

(03:58:03):
Have a good night now.
I'm currently killing
so many people right now.
I was going to say
Lucia already is like, I'm the better
healer here, bitch. I'll give
the blood to people.
Lucia, Lucio, Luca.
The holy trinity.

(03:58:25):
We need to wait for Luco and then
we got it.
Luco completes the square.
The lot of you head outside.
We're phantom awaits.
Marcellus goes,
I suppose all that's

(03:58:47):
willing to do now is that
we conquer
tomorrow's mock battle.
We're gonna win. We have to.
We made an alliance
with the other first year leaders.
That's going to help us
thoroughly.

(03:59:09):
Mm-hmm. So
between us, we're attacking
the black boars first with the help of
the blue wolves.
And not to state the obvious
here, but
perhaps we should hold
off on, we should
hold off on the race until there are better
lighting conditions because the sun has

(03:59:31):
set.
But I'm sure you have something to
say something about that for certainly.
Well, what we really
should be doing is talking
to the rest of our class
about tomorrow
for when we eventually beat
the other first years.
Well said. You're right.

(03:59:55):
She's
already sitting on phantom
strapped in while they've been arguing.
Alright.
Oh my god.
Let's go.
God damn it.
Shut up.
I can't stand

(04:00:17):
you too.
What? What are we doing?
We're not doing anything.
What's the matter?
Yeah, what's wrong?
Speak up.
Fly phantom!
Fly!
Phantoms like this.

(04:00:39):
He says it too.
You start flying back.
Taurus, I'm a friend.
Huh?
Since when do you know Draconic?
No.
Every writer and word throw away knows
Draconic.

(04:01:03):
I think
Yeah, well, this thing is a little
over it. Just a little bit.
I have stress hiccups from these two.
As phantom
as you ride on phantom
as phantom
rides off back towards Iorbrin
as we

(04:01:25):
prepare to spend our second night here
we will open up
the next game
at the ensuing opening ceremony.
And
the coming of
the mock battle.
Keep them up.
The win.
And that's where we're going to stop the session for now.
Yay.

(04:01:47):
A lot happened.
Thank you Timmy.
A lot happened. Yes, thank you Tim.
Well done.
So I need to make friends.
I need to go back to find Casper.
He's my friend.
He's my friend.
Lucia makes the craziest
friends when Valora's not around.
Yes, it's almost like she doesn't have her.

(04:02:09):
Street smarts with her.
Wow.
Alright everyone, join us again
next week for
a lot that's going to happen.
See if
Valora earns her date.
See if
Valora earns her date.

(04:02:31):
See which date
Luvora will end up going up on.
Which date? Do I take her out or does she take me out?
I guess we both lose.
Or does she and
Marcellus go out? Cause those two just want
a fucking kiss at this point.
I hate you.
I hate you too. It's one of those.
I hate you more.

(04:02:53):
