Hi i'm Olma, Flynn, March, Ceallach, Shraya and i'm your DM Ethan welcome to Venture Forth
ah magic and light with thee this is sika shriver flynn and i'm your dm ethan welcome to
0:07
ventureforth [Music]
0:38
previously you all had fled from the city of solaris with a new friend in seeker a man who said that he could get
0:46
you guys a magical item that would be able to rid you of all magical tracking from the hollow guard um as you guys
0:54
ventured out of the city and you guys traveled up into the mountains where this
0:59
water was that secret says that has some magical properties where he could fill some necklaces give them to you guys you
1:05
guys ventured up this path into the mountain and came across a tree a seeming
1:11
temple to ildoria along this path you guys walked in and discovered a
1:16
massacre had taken place here some bodies had been burned some had been stabbed but all dead and all of
1:24
them seemingly harboring ghosts that were still haunting this area um caleb
1:29
went around and put some of those bodies to rest and you guys found another ghost upstairs that was sort of um in this
1:37
longing state and once shraya then put them to rest you guys yourselves took a
1:42
long rest and woke up the next morning so with that you guys have hopped up on
1:49
your horses you guys are heading up the mountain um shraya when you cast the um the the
1:55
spell to find the the algae in the pool of water um you would determine that it was a little ways up the mountain um
2:02
probably a couple hundred feet up um so not too far of of a trek but as you
2:09
guys are going at this mountain you guys are sort of weaving in this path between the trees these evergreen pines on
2:16
either side of you um leaving the temple tool duria in your rear view
2:21
you guys approach a much larger temple one that you guys hadn't seen before because it was
2:27
covered with all of these trees and obscured within them um you guys get the first little look of
2:34
the place that you guys are coming across with um these stones that are in the ground
2:39
these these carved stones that may have at one time formed buildings but over
2:45
the years over the centuries have sort of collapsed and just left these remnants but eventually after a couple
2:51
minutes you guys get to the much larger temple area and you guys can see that
2:57
this is a myriad of stone buildings here there's about five stone buildings here
3:04
and a majority of it has been collapsed um you can see scorch marks on the
3:09
outside of it and arrows that have been plunged deep into the sides of these walls and
3:16
evidence of a a large battle being taken place here so as you guys approach these
3:22
ruins what would you guys like to do um um who is this temple to now would i know
3:29
all of the gods um yeah seeker make a religion check for me
3:37
15 15. um you would know that yeah this is sort of a um spiritual gathering place for all
3:44
worshipers of the old gods um and you would know now looking at the structure
3:50
of this that there was probably like a majority of people out here but knowing the
3:55
followers of ildoria prefer the peace and the quiet of nature they sort of made their own thing that
4:01
was close but not too far away to still keep in touch um but this is sort of the
4:06
main area for all of the old gods in a very wise and sage-like way uh
4:13
seeker would relay all of that information so it's kind of like um
4:18
the the temple district in um uh
4:25
addersfeld uh yeah yeah sort of um these these buildings are much more these
4:31
these buildings are much older um and very like specifically built up high
4:36
in the mountains for religious purposes is it is it a wooded area or is it kind
4:42
of cleared more is there more is it more like man-made terrain
4:49
um yeah so looking around you can see that um the tree line pretty much stops
4:55
where this temple is is built it's been pretty heavily cleared out but you can see some
5:02
of the growth starting to come back into it and sort of take it over once again
5:08
and would i have heard of this kind of place just in my just from working in asheville and my
5:14
various pilgrimage is um make a religion check for me
5:21
that's a 10. attend most of your studies
5:26
would have been centered around ondale um while you did sort of study the
5:33
religious practices all over the world um this one is not bringing any bells for you
5:38
i believe we need a temple to we need to find
5:44
maybe a fount or pond or pool source of water
5:50
likely most likely for me
5:58
why for me if i might ask [Music]
6:05
well if you followed the law of the old gods the mir is the giver of
6:12
all things right is the uh the bacon above all
6:19
but uh that give her i don't know what bearing does that have
6:25
on these trinkets these necklaces she can block those that she reigns over
6:31
that's what i understand i can't say i think it has to do with how they were enchanted
6:38
why old magics two old gods
6:46
the mayor is good and just but and i'm sort of saying this to everyone
6:51
those that follow her or not so let's keep our words about us i
6:58
uh are there dead bodies here too make a perception check for me [Music]
7:08
22 uh 22. um looking around you are sort of inspecting the area and sort of just
7:15
up into the right where some grass has overgrown into the stone um just beyond that you can see a
7:23
body um over here
7:28
i'll walk that way does it look like are we still on horseback or are we have we
7:34
that's up to you i will hop off i was on somebody else's horse so you're on my horse of course yeah i hopped off
7:41
um over here guys and i'll walk that way um does the body when i get closer does
7:46
the body look like it's starting to decay or or kept like the ones in the in the temple this one is not decaying at
7:52
all um i think we need to do the thing
7:59
as the grave what are we looking at what is the range on that spell
8:08
a hundred thousand hang on confirm 60 feet 60 feet um you detect three
8:14
sources of undead within the within 60 feet of you and are they
8:19
inside this the the temple or yeah so at this point because the temple is mostly ruins um
8:27
it's not like rooms and buildings anymore it's mostly just open air
8:32
just like walls every once in a while um so yeah it's pretty much open air
8:38
and can we see then where this pool of water is that trio is searching for
8:44
um not at the same time current moment no okay
8:51
there's three of them maybe we should take care of them i think i think you should do this one first because it's
8:57
right here i'll uh follow alma's point is there is that what's the body look like
9:03
um the body has had its right leg completely blasted off you can actually see
9:08
um the right leg about four feet away from the rest of the body
9:14
um and where that leg is is it's all charred um and on on both pieces
9:21
uh it's charred okay i will uh uh
9:26
ex coco to tell the dead and scorch away the remainder of this body
9:36
one down one down home sent to the origin plates okay
9:42
okay oh man i'm glad we didn't sleep here last night
9:47
right flynn i don't like this place uh yeah but you're a brave
9:52
hunter well yeah yep are you guys moving on to the next
9:58
body um yeah treya do you do you have a way of figuring out where
10:03
that water is again uh i'm gonna say that uh shraya is has
10:09
been in the air on the way to this place um and just keeping pace
10:16
uh would you so i guess
10:23
okay i'll then i'm gonna i'm gonna swoop down yes sir
10:29
what is it um you um were able to find the water earlier
10:36
can you be a little bit more specific this time and and and figure out where the water is here did you see us from
10:41
above oh yeah or that could i have would i have seen it from up there or actually
10:47
yeah you would been able to see it pretty easily from above this is like a pretty big fountain in the middle of um
10:55
what you could see used to be a large temple but all of the walls and the the ceiling have completely
11:01
collapsed around it leaving just this um this fountain um standing in the middle
11:08
apologies i meant to come down here sooner but i was just transfixed by the the shape
11:14
that this temple's former glory had imprinted upon the land and i
11:20
imagine this was quite the quite the gathering spot in its day
11:27
uh and then i described the what i saw from the air and and all of
11:32
its splendor despite it being uh ruin uh that its innate uh beauty and composition uh and
11:40
also within that description i will mention where the water source is [Music]
11:46
okay um and he tells you guys it is um just a little ways ahead of you sort of through some of the
11:52
the collapsed temples well we have
11:58
three sources of one death three more or just two more now
12:03
uh two more sources at least close by close by yeah so
12:12
you know honestly with the scope of this place i actually kind of relief that it's so few
12:21
such a great such an enormous landscape to cleanse the curses of
12:29
i'll get up from where i was kneeled let's go to it
12:35
yes i'll follow close by then on me it's kind of fun i feel like a ghost
12:40
hunter yeah yeah let's get going i want to be here too much longer
12:48
ah it's fun bro flynn come on we're gonna hunt some ghosties and we're gonna
12:54
let their spirits go free make a note in your little box then yeah i bet you're i bet the the i bet
13:02
the the thing that we're not supposed to talk about i bet they'll be super impressed yeah
13:08
yeah you're right also who knows what kind of
13:14
place this could become once it's cleansed of its testaments to death perhaps a different
13:20
description for your book could be in order okay uh caleb you are you moving up to
13:26
the other two bodies i am okay and then i go i go one by one as
13:32
you release each of them
13:40
all right and are you guys moving up towards the uh the thing yeah we're getting good at
13:46
this now okay um can i get a marching order
13:53
uh pelican the lead pelican i'm behind him flynn at the point uh seeker would be
14:00
probably right there in the mix uh i'm gonna say i'd be
14:05
kind of up in the air like pivoting so that people are you know
14:12
we're guiding slowly toward the pool and uh okay yeah phone will be at the
14:17
back kind of grudgingly following all right um so you guys are walking
14:24
through and um you guys see around you guys um like
14:30
this what was at one point a beautiful garden with um these rose bushes sort of
14:36
trimmed into um little um like convenient walking areas um and you
14:44
could see the stone path beneath you that now the grass is just sorting starting to peek up from between the
14:51
rocks and and the gravel beneath you and as you guys are walking towards this
14:56
temple that shri had told you guys about you can see that the base of it was
15:02
actually pretty big this seemed like a decent sized temple at one point that is now pretty much just walls and the
15:09
ground floor you can see a giant um it appears to be like uh some sort of oak tree that has
15:16
grown right next to the temple itself and is sort of coming up over and
15:21
providing almost like uh like an organic roof over this portion of the temple and um
15:28
shading the area so as you guys walk up into
15:34
this temple itself you guys see the the pool of water right in front of you you
15:40
guys can see the fountain there that is no longer active water isn't isn't coming up and
15:45
and out of it the the water is stagnant and you can start to smell that algae that shrai had probably detected earlier
15:53
if you wouldn't mind giving me a moment i would [Music] see what i can find magical
15:59
and uh just keep an eye out and we'll go to ritual cast
16:07
detect magic unless anybody has any objections thank you time saver
16:12
okay so you sit down and you get your your things ready to ritual cast this
16:19
and right as you're about to get started you hear all around you
16:29
as all around you five ghostly specters rise up out of the
16:35
ground and i'm going to have everyone roll initiative for me
16:41
[Laughter] remember you have advantage yeah i still didn't do very well with
16:48
the advantage bet you didn't do worse than me
16:55

in towards you guys oh love it so
17:59
one of them is going to move up to flynn
18:06

22:43
i am going to [Music] uh touch my heart
22:50
i put my my palms my heart uh and uh uh
22:55
the the uh splash underneath my bandages
23:00
begins to uh glisten with uh orange light and uh it flows into my
23:07
heart and i pull open a rift uh uh adjacent to me as i as
23:12
i pull my arm across the air out in front of my my heart uh this
23:18
terror and the fabric of reality opens up and from it these these blue specks
23:24
begin to form uh and the the blue specks turn and burn
23:30
into ash and they form this long slender
23:35
sort of dagger uh and i say interference
23:43
and i cast spiritual weapons okay
23:50
uh this uh spectral dagger i think i can with my bonus action uh attack this uh
23:56
spirit in front of me yeah that's so cool
24:02
[Music] okay so that makes an attack roll
24:10
uh that is a 17 to hit that hits yeah
24:18
10 uh force damage as it slices and and the way that it
24:25
moves it um it's like the the the thing that remains is this slight tear that i've created
24:32
and this this slender dagger of orange the tip of it is this orange burning ash
24:38
and as it gets to the hilt of it it becomes blue and it kind of seems like these blue flakes as they're coming out
24:44
of this rift are turning orange from the exposure to this plane and this like
24:50
uh dagger slices through the air and then it kind of evaporates at the tail end of
24:55
its slice but this rift kind of remains as the presence of the spiritual weapon so
25:00
freaking cool very cool okay um next up we got shraya shrai you are
25:06
flying in the air what would you like to do uh as i see uh these ghostly
25:13
figures emerge uh and i look down to the party as these
25:19
figures are descending upon them uh i look around
25:24
and i let out this like just blood curdling screech as my chest
25:30
tills up toward the sky and my wings just spread out as wide as they can and all of a sudden
25:37
um uh with my hand with my free hand i thrust the
25:43
staff uh as very very high into the air and all of a sudden these little
25:49
wisps of mist just start uh going
25:55
uh coming from the horizon emanating up from the ground coming down from the sky and start forming this incredibly large
26:04
uh liquid like misty liquid mass that just gets darker and darker in color as more
26:09
pieces of wisp arrive uh and you hear this like crack
26:15
and rumble as suddenly bolts of lightning start raining down on the two spirits that are
26:22
behind uh the fountain as i cast call lightning
26:29
[Music] what ah all right um are you gonna need a roll from me on yeah they're gonna need
26:36

26:47
saves and a nine for the other one uh the nine does
26:52

30:58
yeah like right there okay that'll be it all right that is gonna be
31:05
it for seeker um next up on the initiative okay so we've got a couple of ghosts
31:12
coming up here um all right so the ghost the other ghost who was hit
31:20
by the lightning is going to disappear into the ground no
31:26
and with a whirling almost tornado like movement up here out of the
31:33
ground ah i am gonna need kellik seeker and flynn to all make dexterity
31:40
saving throws for me oh man as this thing spins like a tornado and um is
31:46
going to attempt to attack you guys all right dexter
31:51
we can do this guys [Music] roll to one reward i also rolled a one
31:57
but i am not a halfling yeah um so i got uh i got a 14.
32:05
10. oh gosh okay seeker and kellick
32:12
you guys both take [Music] four points of necrotic damage
32:18
[Music] hmm necrotic yuck
32:24
whirling tornado um actually uh spins and spins and spins and then kalec as
32:30
you turn around this tornado like lightning fast a hand reaches out
32:35
touches you and then recedes back into the tornado seeker you see the same thing a hand reaches out touches you and
32:40
recedes back into this tornado they don't like it they don't okay
32:47
they're just like hitting off of the shield that's still up that's the only point like that like
32:52
um [Music] so
32:58
alma the the ghost that you just attacked
33:03
is not happy about it it is going to recede into the ground and pop up right next to you nobody can see me
33:11
do uh do we get opportunity attacks when they do this disappear in the ground thing uh actually you would yeah so
33:17
kellick you get an opportunity to attack on that one get it spiritual weapon um do attacks when they leave range too i
33:24
don't know i think it's because it's just uh
33:31
that's how i wield it okay uh that is a 15 to hit for me um that hits and what
33:39
weapon are you using you better believe it's that radiant sickle boy hey
33:44
okay chop chop
33:49
uh so that is uh
33:56
it's so pathetic uh hang on oh yeah no no no okay
34:03
so that is two plus two is four plus two more is six points of radiant damage
34:10
okay ooh but radiant though that's right damage is damage let's see i slash it with the sickle and
34:16
the bolts of light flashes okay it took that damage did not
34:21
like it um okay it is still going to move towards alma
34:28
does it seem like radiant does like more damage or does it really reel in pain from it it does not
34:35
okay no um okay
34:40
oma uh yeah it's gonna it is going to uh
34:46
come over to you and i am going to have you make
34:51
a charisma saving throw oh okay
34:56
oh just a little little 19. okay and 19. um as this this ghost uh
35:03
comes into your space and completely fills itself into your body you're able
35:08
to repel the effect and not become possessed
35:16
no keep your hands to yourself all right um
35:22
and then uh the other one that's right next to flint is gonna try to uh go for it swipe and attack
35:28
flynn he already possessed though can't possess him
35:34
inside of his head that is gonna be a 19 to hit
35:40
with shield up still it does not hit oh okay i'm a magic boy
35:46
okay um and with that uh the shield just deflected the attack flynn what do you want to do oh yeah okay so shield
35:52
dissipates um i saw um secret attack and it didn't work so he
35:59
backed up and i'm like looking at these two ghosts like ah and i reach into the bag hastily and i
36:04
pull out some of this silver uh dust and rub it across my forehead as the the tattoo and the the dust glows and i
36:11
whistle high-low and uh it just stays glowing and like oh gosh
36:16
and then like i calm myself a little bit as i rub the dust over my forehead and it calms me
36:22
all right i can do this i can do this i can do this i look back up at both of them and just like a little smile
36:29
but i'm still a little nervous um as i stare at them and i cast protection from good and evil
36:35
on myself okay um oma what are you doing yeah so these
36:40
specters um if i throw something at them and it hits them do they do they just have like my sword just like in their
36:46
body still or did it like fall to the ground in front of them or like how is it how's that working shadow blade is there a shadow jet blade
36:52
just like in it yes yes if it's a magical blade it would stay stuck into
36:57
it yeah okay um i will um use my bonus action to call it to me
37:04
even though he's five feet from me okay and so the blade just like dissipates from inside of
37:10
um inside of the spectre and um reappears in my hand and i
37:18
i haven't ever used this up close i'm going to i guess do it and i try to
37:24
stabby stab the thing inside of me don't touch me
37:31
okay make an attack roll [Music] 15. uh 15 hits
37:39
um seven points of um psychic damage
37:48
seven points of psychic damage [Music]
37:54
and that's my turn i crashed back down and put my hands over my head
38:00
[Music] all right uh kellick okay
38:05
uh what are you doing i will uh i'm
38:10
kind of barely standing because i've taken a lot of damage to my soul oh boy i will
38:16
uh uh uh uh unwrap
38:22
uh my arm and uh and allow uh the the scar on my palm to
38:29
fill up with uh with ash from another realm and i will draw that ash
38:36
across my forehead and down my nose and say kanyo
38:42
and i will turn undead
38:48
and uh so each undead that can see or hear me within 30 feet must make a wisdom saving through
38:54
legit all of them they're all close they're all close yeah okay i will go
39:00
down the line
39:06
once again so that's going to be a sixth wave you're coming me i'll come at you
39:13
yeah does the 16 save uh it just it beats it beats it so it just saves
39:19
okay so it saves um a 22 yeah oh man
39:30
[Music]
39:40
and a 18. oh
39:45
yeah um so those two that failed uh must
39:51
spend their turns that for one minute uh they must spend their turns trying to move as far away from me as it can and
39:58
it can't willingly move to a space within 30 feet of me
40:03
get on out of your ghosts that's actually okay it can only use the dash action to try and escape from an
40:08
effect that prevents it from moving if there's nowhere to move the creature can use the dodge action
40:14
uh and so as this uh spell takes effect my entire body uh
40:20
this ash that i pulled down my my face this ash spreads to my entire body and
40:26
the normal orange glow is supplanted by a silver light the the orange is like it's it's
40:33
almost as though the orange is trying to overtake it but it can't and i'm just like this glowing silver creature
40:38
of whoa um all right next up shraya
40:45
uh so just mystified by everything that's happening on the ground below uh i
40:53
do they do they turn do they run right now or do they go on there it's on their turn okay cool and then i'll find out
40:59
i can still bonus action attack with my uh weapon so i'm gonna do that yeah
41:07
so are you attacking the one that's in between you and the fountain uh yes uh that's a dirty 20 to hit
41:14
hey yeah nice bunk it on the head uh eight points of
41:19
force damage okay nice as this as from the rift this
41:25
silver dagger slices right there okay all right now it's dry what do you wanna
41:30
so my body is gonna hover and just kind of statue like uh kind of being held in the air by this
41:37
energy just going to like pivot uh you see my body rotating uh calmly
41:45
uh when the staff is like above me facing toward the sky and as i start to turn
41:52
the storm cloud that was uh churning above the one area uh seems to just
41:58
gather all of its energy uh there's a crescendo and a crescendo of thunder until it just vanishes out of existence
42:06
and then appears again over the garden uh right on the fringe
42:12
of where uh the two ghosts flanking flynn are and
42:17
as and as another
42:22
that one was hard uh emanates out of my beak more lightning [Laughter]
42:29
more lightning will cascade down toward those ghosts
42:34
um what is the radius of the spell it's five feet so i'm going to position it in between
42:39
oh yeah the two okay
42:46
it's a five foot radius yes but if i i think if i were to position it toward uh where that
42:52
uh garden is that green space it would eat both of them without hitting flint
42:59
right i'm gonna say if if it's a five foot radius attack then it would only be able to get
43:06
one creature all right uh i'll i'll select the one that's closer toward the center of the
43:11
guard okay all right um that is uh dexterity for me
43:18
correct oh that's going to be a six yeah
43:24
nice and let's see take that damage let's see how much damage does that die again
43:32
uh it's weird i get these straight uh damage rolls um five six seven
43:40
uh 18 another 18 points of lightning damage as the lightning's just huge
43:46
like spins itself in this double helix form comes down on that ghost and then
43:51
just explodes as it hits it okay awesome um do you want to move anywhere
43:58
you're still up in the sky uh i do not want to move in okay
44:04
okay that is the end of your turn um the ghost that just got hit by this
44:09
lightning um is still going to try and attack flynn that's right so uh
44:15
when when it goes to swipe at me the these the two silver
44:21
dust lines on my forehead and my tattoo glow brighter and almost
44:26
blind it and it has disadvantage on my attack okay on its attack that is a 19
44:33
okay and then a 13. okay yeah so the it misses okay so this
44:39
is blinding light kind of shines in its eyes as it tries to hit me yeah okay
44:45
um then all right so the ghost right next to
44:51
kellik then is going to try to attack kellick again buddy [Music]
44:58
which ones are the ones that had to turn uh i think those are i'm sorry i forgot about that that's that's one of them oh
45:05
is that here as it really sounds it's trying to attack you it realizes it's weird
45:12
[Laughter] it i'm glowing silver get out of here disappears into the ground out of sight
45:20
you currently have no idea where it is he's too pretty attack of opportunity yes
45:26
get him uh that's an 11 to hit that hits ah oh
45:32
wait nice let's go dude uh so that is uh four
45:38
what is uh uh four points of physical damage and three points of radiant okay
45:45
all right um still disappears into the ground out of sight you do not know where it is
45:51
okay that is their turn seeker
45:57
all right seekers like kind of exacerbated and just breathing hard
46:03
kind of looking around seeing the numbers not liking it and we'll say
46:10
um it was just you clap his hands together
46:16
and say emika nisi
46:23
and cass very fire yeah you will get it okay i think it i think it should
46:30
hit all of them if uh they did my math um all of them except for the one that
46:36
just ran away oh yeah for that one does firefighter hit us too did the
46:42
other one use it's turn to run also you don't know it's not had its turn yet it hasn't gone yet okay yeah it wasn't true
46:48
if you were lumping them sorry i guess technically it does hit you yes every object uh
46:53
within the um within the cube
46:58
has to make a deck save throw or be i get to pick which ones
47:04
no how big is the cube it is a uh 60 foot range 20 foot
47:12
the the cube is a 20 foot of a 20 foot cube the range so
47:18
i guess what i would do is put it down that's enormous [Music]
47:23
so you would be able to get all of them that are clumped up around you guys you would not be able to get the one that is
47:29
near alma yeah then i'll get the one pumped up near us okay
47:34
so we have to make decisions they have to make yeah deck safe girls we do too uh
47:40
yeah here we go i'm good at those i think is kellik
47:45
within that i don't think so yeah if you put it just you could towards us more position is not within
47:51
right okay cool all right okay that is i'm good like i haven't been naturally
47:58
yeah yes natural one let's go let's go um he is a halfling ghost so he doesn't
48:04
okay
48:10
yeah okay and then
48:16
that's gonna be an 18. that'll that'll do two of them so two of them are now outlined in a thin purple
48:24
light and uh any attack role against an effective
48:29
creature object has advantage if the attacker can see it are those the two that are the two that failed are next to me right next to
48:35
flynn those are the two that failed the ones that are on me um the one that's on yeah that is correct
48:42
yeah the two that are right now i rolled a uh 19 for my deck okay so i
48:48
think i'm okay yeah i think you're good right okay cool okay and with that seeker would um
48:55
disengage from the one in between he and caleb
49:00
and move over in between the wall and the one
49:05
uh herring oma and say you don't get that today you get me
49:13

50:44
that is going to be 23 points of necrotic damage oh boy
50:49

51:05
run no no it's not no okay okay good this one um but the one that does need to run uh just got very fired um so it
51:14
is now bright and you guys can see it really well as it recedes back into the ground and runs away out of sight you
51:19
guys don't know where it is can i do a op on it well yes you can go for it um so as a warcaster uh i'm able
51:26
to cast a spell right yes so uh as i see it going down i think
51:32
about hitting it and i i quickly just uh rubbed my fingers together tap my sword really fast and i'm gonna do
51:38
booming blade on it okay uh so i'm gonna hit and i've advantage
51:44
uh both are good uh like 20 something yeah yeah okay
51:49
um so i roll one of these and one of these that's a lot of damage uh so that's
51:56
[Music] oh man hold on um 15 points of pokey damage
52:04
nice um and then it is in wreath in that
52:10
energy that booming energy and as it dissipates to run away it takes damage
52:17
okay it takes another five points of lightning damage as it recedes in the ground it just you hear you hear it just
52:24
and it emits that shock as it rips open the ghostly form
52:29
as it does wow um as you attack this thing um you're honestly not quite sure
52:35
as it like dissipated into the ground you're not quite sure if it dissipating in the ground was still it running away
52:41
or it dying uh
52:46
you're not quite sure so cool um that is their turn and then flynn you
52:53
got to go again yeah perfect this is great um so yeah after that happens um i
52:58
you know i look back to the other one silver powder uh across my eyes or across my forehead and i kind of that
53:04
smile grows a little bit more and i'm like all right
53:09
yeah these things aren't so bad and i turn over and i see uh kellik um
53:15
notice i'm assuming you look pretty bad i am yeah i am barely standing i noticed
53:20
that and i i i'm gonna run to help him and and attack this other one instead and if i could i'd like to put myself in
53:26
between i don't know if i can do that as a halfling but i'd like to try and interpose myself
53:32
and go after this one okay i think one gets a oh yeah okay so who would get an
53:38
opportunity to attack jason yeah so the same thing happens though as um as it reaches down to swipe the the silver
53:45
glows bright and attempts to blind right as it has disadvantage on the attack that's good because that would have been a 17 but instead it is a
53:54
six yeah okay yeah that misses awesome uh yeah i'm gonna run up like goody and even and i'm gonna attack uh
54:01
i'm just gonna do two regular spokes with my sword oh the first one is um
54:08
15. uh 15 hits yeah 15 hits okay that is uh
54:16
11 points of pokey damage and i'm gonna do the second attack on it uh uh

56:28
there to begin with this thing is obliterated
56:34

56:40
kind of looks over enough better and it's just what what do you have to be afraid of
56:51
oh man all right um now that these ghosts arrived have been dissipated what do you want to do

57:35
flint that's been scratched no i haven't been scratching i'm 100
57:48
all right well in that case this is me um i would say uh
57:54
and i will uh still uh put my hand against my heart once more and this time my eyes will flicker with uh uh orange
58:03
light as i cast false life on myself uh and restore
58:09
um uh 11 hit points nice okay uh or i think
58:15
they're not i don't think it's technically restored but it rather it gives me temp hit points gotcha you're not gonna heal speaker um not right now
58:24
if he goes down you can't heal him for my bonus action i will move the um
58:29
uh of my i will pull from i've had it on my heart in order to cast false life i
58:34
will then pull once more the uh the rift across the battlefield as it sort of
58:39
like sears its way across and the blade will cut out at this uh remaining get it
58:46
okay um all right and you have advantage because it's uh very funny
58:51
very cool yeah that advantage helped a lot yes awesome
58:57
yeah for real for real uh that is yeah that's a uh 20
59:03
yeah a 20 uh uh
59:09
oh sweet max damage uh that'll be uh 12 12 points of force damage
59:15
okay on our guy not down yet um next up shraya
59:21
so the one that's still closer to the center of the garden is still up how's that one
59:27
looking um it's looking beat up like you can tell it's struggling to keep its ghostly
59:33
form together okay that storm's still above us yeah it they lasted ten turns uh or ten
59:39
minutes i guess um so this final like
59:44
the staff itself like goes up into the cloud and disappears for a second and then
59:50
the cloud pulses uh purple pinkish color as another lightning bolt with you know
59:58
the same level of ferocity but just in a different color now like just rains down on this uh on this ghost
1:00:05
okay uh that's dexterity right yep that's a five
1:00:14
dexterous [Music] nice okay um
1:00:20
that's 22 points of lightning damage oh the lightning comes down and
1:00:27
it's like the ghost was there the lightning hits it the ghost is not there anymore
1:00:32
it is obliterated uh as as the as the ghost is obliterated
1:00:40
uh the wisps which are now uh this uh kind of
1:00:45
purple magenta color all start dissipating and the cloud slowly uh loses its form and all of the wisps
1:00:53
that form that are returning to all of their sources as i sort i
1:00:59
spring back into a less rigid form floating in the air and uh
1:01:06
come back to my staff materializing in my hands
1:01:11
okay all right um kellick how long does that uh turn undead spell
1:01:17
last i think it only affects the folks around when i cast it like it's an
1:01:24
active thing that happens but i uh so it's not like a field for example okay
1:01:29
so like do they have to spend their next like they can't come anywhere near you currently it lasts for one minute okay
1:01:36
on whoever it affects okay um then so we have a minute to find
1:01:41
their dead bodies right yeah okay we are right i mean so
1:01:47
we have like three like five like eight rounds left i will say right now we are out of combat
1:01:53
um immediately after combat uh i'll um i'm seeing a lightning bolt
1:01:59
destroy the one right in front of me that i just attacked um and all the crazy crap calactus did i'm gonna like
1:02:05
look at both of them just kind of like smile with a grin and be like you guys are awesome
1:02:12
and i look around everyone well let's get the water
1:02:18
uh let me see it here i i'll i'll move over to uh seeker and and and and pull him to
1:02:25
me and start getting stuff out of my medical bag um to address his his
1:02:31
wounds are they wounds technically then can i use the healing healer's kit on them um yeah you can see like where he
1:02:38
was um where he came in contact with these ghosts like some of the skin has begun to like decay
1:02:46
almost from this necrotic damage um so yeah it would definitely be something you could heal
1:02:51
okay that is uh you get 10 naturally plus additional hb
1:02:57
equal to your maximum number of hit die wow okay
1:03:02
awesome yeah i rolled i rolled max on it so 10 plus my maximum number of hit die
1:03:09
your number of hit die yep wow that's the that's fancy
1:03:14
how you feeling are you still down a little cause [Music] are you feeling better because i also
1:03:20
have some stuff if you're not i'm not i'm not
1:03:26
not perfect but i'm better i could use hold up and he'll search in his uh
1:03:34
in his pack and pull out a healing potion oh okay well you can use yours i i have some but it's fine whatever
1:03:43
um and get four points of healing on top of that
1:03:51
all right and then i will uh use eyes of the grave draw ashes
1:03:57
across can i find the sources of these these spirits that have come
1:04:03
upon us um yes so as you are casting eyes of the grave um you see
1:04:09
uh five um bodies that were originating where these ghosts came from um you can see two of
1:04:17
them over in the garden near these little like trimmed rose bushes and you can see two of them near or just
1:04:25
behind a couple of pillars um and then a third one or i'm sorry the
1:04:30
fifth one you can see is actually submerged within the fountain itself [Music]
1:04:38
well then one by one i'm going to attempt to lay these souls to rest
1:04:43
okay and i guess i'll start with the garden ones okay so you
1:04:50
dissipate the first one silence you dissipate the second one in the
1:04:55
garden
1:05:01
you come over to the next one over by the pillar you don't hear anything
1:05:07
you dissipate the next one over by the other pillar you hear okay
1:05:12
[Music] one last one in the fountain itself um
1:05:19
tough to see because of all the sort of algae and plant life that is accumulated over the top layer of the water um but
1:05:26
after looking around for a minute you can actually see like a body has sunk into the to the bottom [Music]
1:05:33
um is there what kind of fountain is this is this a fountain to familiar
1:05:38
um yes you can see a lot of like familiar symbology you can see a lot of like the tri-ring symbols um carved into
1:05:45
this stone um fountain it's one of those like two stage fountains where there's a
1:05:51
massive base that holds a bunch of water and then there's like a little um there there seems to be like a chalice sort of
1:05:59
four feet tall that pours water down into this main basin area
1:06:05
um how deep is this pole that i'd have to reach this uh
1:06:11
i'd say three feet okay the water's not flowing right yeah it looks like it needs to be purified
1:06:19
did we take that buddy out uh i mean if i can destroy it then
1:06:26
it's all the same isn't it i mean isn't it like sitting in the water and getting it all gross and stuff
1:06:35
i say we get rid of the water all together start fresh uh and i turned a secret is this the
1:06:41
water that we need i think so uh but it's probably corrupted right
1:06:47
it doesn't look good probably should find a way to make the fountain work again
1:06:54
come help me let's i'm gonna cast destroy water on this water
1:07:00
okay um how much water does it destroy because this is like a noise
1:07:06
like a 15 by 15 foot or like a 15 foot diameter up to 10 gallons this is much
1:07:12
more than 10 gallons oh okay you can see the water level goes down a little bit
1:07:18
what was that it's my best effort to replace in the water then
1:07:25
secretly looking for any kind of a switch or activation did uh caleb share
1:07:32
that there's a body at the bottom like looking intently at it
1:07:38
be trying to see if the body's maybe plugging a hole or
1:07:44
if there's like a lever anywhere we could activate make an investigation check for me
1:07:50
it was it was so good then it was so bad that's a one that's a natural one for a
1:07:56
total of six a total of six um you don't see any levers or anything um but you do
1:08:02
just notice that the algae is kind of pooling in weird ways it's kind of like a weird it's a weird
1:08:09
clumping pattern um and if i
1:08:15
try to destroy this body can i like if i'm casting all the dead on it
1:08:23
um are you gonna try and do it within the fountain itself um i mean if i can get up on the ledge
1:08:30
or the fountain and uh i can do it i mean it's not you get up on there and
1:08:36
you reach down and you prepare to cast it um but the spell like it seems to almost
1:08:42
like refract and dissipate over the surface of the water uh that's right
1:08:49
can you take a look at this this algae it seems strange
1:08:56
as i coast down and hear this remark uh i
1:09:03
reverently walk up toward the fountain uh okay
1:09:09
make a nature check for me great
1:09:16
ah nature i don't get any ah okay uh that's a nine on nature on the nature
1:09:21
nine um no like you're you're trying to look at this but um the like some of the
1:09:26
leaves from the tree right above you are sort of falling into it and and making the uh
1:09:32
the water move around a little bit and so you can't really get a good read on it um i'm gonna walk up to it
1:09:39
okay and i'm going to um [Music]
1:09:46
go over to where caleb has mentioned that the bot like implied that the body is
1:09:51
and i'm going to um
1:09:57
like stare at the water look up at the fountain and just kind of invest like look at it a little bit and
1:10:02
then i'm going to stick my hands into the water above the body okay and um
1:10:09
i'm going to move the water five feet away from the body
1:10:17
okay all right um and or attempt to yeah the water moves so you create this uh this little
1:10:24
area a dry pocket around the body does it expose it the body to the air
1:10:31
um yeah is that is that your aim homa yeah yeah yeah yes it does it does like like like parting of the water yeah um
1:10:39
yeah [Music] do we want to get it no i'll like run
1:10:45
[Music] again attempt to destroy this this
1:10:51
corpse to release it okay um and as you do uh the spell seems to take hold and uh
1:10:58
dissipate the body into the ether so it evaporates and is gone
1:11:04
yeah oh okay awesome hold down normal um
1:11:09
thanks seeker's gonna walk up to the pool
1:11:16
and um pull out one of the necklaces and see
1:11:21
uh what happens if he um dips it into the water okay um
1:11:27
so you dip it into the water and um the the water itself oma would have noticed
1:11:33
this too if she put her hands in the water um it's it's like it's cold like uh it's
1:11:39
pretty cold water you have to like get all the leaves and the algae and stuff away um but you you take some into the
1:11:45
necklace and it seems like normal water [Music]
1:11:54
something is missing something's not right missing well this
1:11:59
this place has been defiled by whatever standard uh familiar would keep most certainly
1:12:07
these walls should be immaculate so it's only uh i don't know how how we can restore it
1:12:16
but the fountain itself is you know there's been a corpse rotting away inside of it
1:12:23
um can we see where the fountain would have begun like where the source of the water is
1:12:29
yeah make an investigation check [Music]
1:12:38
uh 14. uh 14. um you don't see where the
1:12:43
the water would have originated it just seems like um in that chalice in the middle
1:12:49
probably the water springs up from in there and then comes out into the to the main basin um
1:12:55
but uh you do notice that like there's not a whole lot of you know the
1:13:02
practices of the temples of vermeer um and there seems to be a lot of like
1:13:09
shade in this area not really the light that that there
1:13:14
normally is how's the how's the ceiling looking how are they it's a tree the tree that's that's that's grown an open
1:13:21
tree that's grown over to create a roof for this
1:13:27
so um the seal the roof the previous roof did it look like there ever was a roof or
1:13:33
was it just an open air and pillars um you really can't tell there's just a
1:13:40
bunch of rubble around you it's very difficult to tell okay i mean depending on the layout of the
1:13:46
place this looks like a smaller uh temple than the one in outer south uh by a lot
1:13:52
but there would be all manner of uh lenses scopes
1:13:58
uh astral instruments to redirect the light to this central chamber uh
1:14:04
so at least a window um well can't we just cut down the tree
1:14:10
uh i'll look at the size of the tree but don't i don't know about that but uh
1:14:18
maybe move the branches a bit expose the water to the light yeah
1:14:24
tonight when he mentioned that there's like things that he used to turn the light or um
1:14:30
redirect it can i look around the room to see if there's something like that like mirrors and stuff like that that might they might be around uh yeah make
1:14:37
an investigation check and also just like what is around in here is it just the fountain and this
1:14:42
like or what's amongst the rubble that kind of thing yeah if i could while he's doing this i'm gonna climb the tree and start to peel away at least i'm just
1:14:50
gonna start to like clear branches i hold really low i rolled a four it's a bunch of rocks there there is
1:14:57
some glass on the ground but you can't tell what it would do where it would have come from is the glass like stained
1:15:04
glass it is could i pick up like a piece that i don't know
1:15:09
looks interesting just like maybe a smaller piece um yeah there's actually a couple different colors um there's like some
1:15:15
blue some red some green is there a specific color that you want um [Music] no i think i'll just pick up a few
1:15:20
pieces okay um so a few different ones maybe just to get an idea of what it looks like and i'll just kind of put
1:15:26
them in a cloth and wrap them up okay and i'll put them in my i'll pull out my little bag my little satchel and i'll
1:15:32
put it in my bag that i have all my other little macs in cool um oma you are trying to
1:15:39
kick these branches down clear some leaves out and yeah i'm gonna use my flames though i'm gonna use fireball to
1:15:45
burn the leaves away okay nice awesome um so you are burning these leaves away
1:15:50
you're actually clearing some some really good space pretty quickly and everyone who is down by the fountain
1:15:57
um sees as soon as the light actually comes through the tree and hits the
1:16:02
water the algae and everything and the dirt and everything in the water singes away and it becomes this crystal clear
1:16:09
um and as alma clears away more and more and more of the tree eventually the entire pool of water becomes this
1:16:15
crystal clear after all the algae has been singed away it's still so beautiful
1:16:22
i would like to now dip my hands into it and see if i feel anything
1:16:28
um it is still a little bit it's a little bit warmer but still like cool and
1:16:33
refreshing and um as you have your hands in there you can almost like feel a very
1:16:40
faint like pulsing like almost a heartbeat but very faint
1:16:48
let's try to keep [Music] the amount of light on this fountain to
1:16:54
a maximum as much light as we can manage i keep burning i keep burning i keep
1:16:59
burning i'd like to um just touch the surface of it with my my left hand
1:17:06
my left uh index finger okay as you do
1:17:13
you take one point of radiant damage i retract my hand right away
1:17:21
all right fair game then
1:17:26
it takes kind of a noted note of that and and it tries to
1:17:32
in the newly renewed water uh try to dip it that dipping in that necklace again
1:17:38
let's try again shall we all right and as you do um the all of
1:17:43
the tiny little intricate blue gems um or the the blue um
1:17:50
sorry the the blue chain links that are on the chains of this necklace um begin
1:17:56
to sort of pulse with this slight blue color as you you fill up each necklace
1:18:01
and you can feel them become empowered there we go
1:18:07
yes it works it worked uh not gonna lie i was
1:18:13
not not exactly sure who glad it did
1:18:18
i try yes does triad still have his hands
1:18:25
dipped in the water yes
1:18:30
if you close your eyes can you hear anything
1:18:35
uh i would like to close my eyes and attempt to commune with the uh
1:18:41
energy of this fountain i'm going to have you make a religion check
1:18:53
nope okay uh that's a ten that's a ten um you can sort of like you
1:18:59
reach in and and you listen and you don't hear anything
1:19:09
just faint rumblings whisperings
1:19:14
not that i can understand hi who knows if it's uh
1:19:22
thanks anyway for indulging me [Music] seeker you're saying about these
1:19:27
necklaces uh secrets like laying them out like along the
1:19:33
along the edge of the fountain in front of him and kind of whispering a
1:19:40
a prayer and incantation and as you say that kind of breaks his attention he says
1:19:48
well it would appear that we are successful and
1:19:54
i have we we have now
1:19:59
these necklaces which should protect you so i suppose we should talk about damon
1:20:07
haymon yes um well forgive me if i'm wrong
1:20:15
but it seems like in our journey here you did get some cool magical items
1:20:20
um because of things that we helped you kill so that seems like payment enough
1:20:28
yeah i do hold them now but i have not taken them we have not decided where they would go
1:20:34
oh and you all have some pretty
1:20:40
fantastic magical items on you already i don't have anything
1:20:48
it would seem you do little one almost a magical item author [Laughter]
1:20:54
yes yes as she made that that
1:21:01
gaspy thing disappear as if it was never there it almost killed me
1:21:06
i don't have anything though that i just make that that i don't have it and i like
1:21:12
well then i guess you can't give it what's your price seeker what do you think is fair
1:21:17
well uh so many necklaces work
1:21:22
that's something i can wear it ah that's so valuable item
1:21:30
oh uh name it uh you've seen what we have what we've come across
1:21:36
he looks at uh he looks at flynn that blade you have
1:21:44
tell me about it well
1:21:51
it's part of
1:21:56
the collective it's part of it's how i
1:22:02
learn train and study it's like the
1:22:08
most important thing we learn how to use this first before anything
1:22:14
um it becomes part of the person who wields it everyone is
1:22:21
unique you can scroll your name on it and i pull it out and i show it to him
1:22:27
and i show him the the markings all down up and down the blade and then i i revealed a tattoo on my
1:22:34
left hand which is just black ink and it's right on right up right above my wrist or right below my hand on the
1:22:39
inside and it matches the ones that are on the blade
1:22:45
and it becomes mine and uh
1:22:52
i kind of smirk a little bit
1:22:58
but you've helped us so much and i mean i have
1:23:04
a bow if this is what you want to take as payment
1:23:13
i'm okay with that oma overhears this and says ah but it bonded to you so no one else can use it
1:23:19
it's not as good if anyone else uses it because it's bonded to him and i'll give her it has its own emotions and it bonds
1:23:25
to the wielder so i don't know if it'll work as good for you i'll give her a look i've tried to use it it doesn't
1:23:30
quite work you know um if i can i would like to give her a wink
1:23:36
without seekers seeing it okay um make a
1:23:43
i'm gonna make this a just a sleight of hand check oh great and seeker what is your passive perception
1:23:49
13. sleight of hand yeah uh
1:23:54
13 so secret does not see the wink
1:24:01
i give her i need to roll anything for her i give her a wink little nod
1:24:07
i'm sure in time i've seen the things he can do i'm pretty sure i think you just need to
1:24:12
spend time with it that might be why it worked but you're bonded to it it has your name
1:24:20
on it nobody else can use it man hold the plate
1:24:26
sure and i hand it over to him you'll kind of weigh it
1:24:32
and wield it with it with a familiarity to such blades kind of kind of
1:24:38
pairing around and saying if you'd be willing to part with it this would be this would make you find
1:24:45
a fine payment uh we do have several other magical items that
1:24:52
i think we could easily split no i don't think so split them
1:24:59
yeah that seems like you're coming out with a whole lot and we're not coming out with like anything
1:25:05
and we did keep you alive coming here one you couldn't have done this without
1:25:10
us three four five we got the fountain working again
1:25:15
you wouldn't have even had the water if i didn't get the fountain working this was a team effort no you admitted
1:25:21
yourself that the necklaces wouldn't you weren't even sure if they would work
1:25:27
i but they did really don't know that yet did i did i catch this wink between omar and flynn
1:25:33
by the way what's your passive perception 18. yeah yeah you would have gotten it
1:25:38
all right um saker i'd gladly offer my own
1:25:44
uh circle in place of flynn's sword i don't uh don't think it's right to part in
1:25:51
iron light acolyte with their special named weapon flynn loves his
1:25:57
name on things so i can't bear to see him part with it it's okay i keep my second rebond to a new one
1:26:04
it's all right if this is what he wants and this is if this is all he takes i will part with
1:26:09
it it is important to me and it's very powerful we've also got the teapot
1:26:16
and uh that the dragon jaw necklace
1:26:22
yeah those are what's on the table right now unless there's something else that's caught your eye
1:26:28
well the blade what what did you offer bailey uh my cycle
1:26:37
uh that did radiant in this last fight yeah yeah yeah yeah it's a really nice the blade
1:26:43
has had my eye for some time where you are going i feel you will need
1:26:48
as much as you can and you take out the um take out the necklace
1:26:54
and say this is wondrous i i would love to find the rest of this but i fear i will not have time
1:27:01
and he'll put it he'll give it to his manchan and
1:27:07
uh hand it to oma
1:27:12
float it over tom say take this i'll put it in my bag
1:27:19
maybe your magic comes from something older
1:27:25
maybe we'll look back at flynn and say
1:27:30
if you were part with it if you can manage do not mean to encumber you i'll um pull
1:27:36
out my bow i think i'll be all right
1:27:42
you know i think it'll help what i saw in the battle earlier maybe i think it might have just been your weapon that's
1:27:48
why you missed earlier this is strange i don't miss normal
1:27:53
but maybe i need more range and then he'll look at uh
1:28:00
shreya and say this hold on and have his mage hand pull the
1:28:07
teapot out and say i'm sure i could
1:28:14
fetch something very nicely but i would prefer you to have it
1:28:21
and floated over to uh our our bird friend
1:28:26
and then caleb he would look at and actually walk over
1:28:32
and say
1:28:38
[Music] firstly curious i would like to know if
1:28:44
you can and i'll bow my head for him to put the
1:28:49

1:28:54
in anticipation nothing happens

1:29:41

1:30:17

1:30:23
watch out then seems like you're incapable hands yeah i'd say so
1:30:30
you don't want to take them with you [Music]
1:30:36
where are you going thaddeus are you not traveling with him i was under the impressionist
1:30:42
right now i'm going wherever the wind takes me i'm sort of hoping that eventually we
1:30:48
can get around to getting me some new uh arms and legs but you know i'm not
1:30:54
holding my breath for that how do you do you need to wear a necklace
1:31:00
that how does that even [Laughter]
1:31:06
um yeah that's that's kind of hey secret you have
1:31:11
you've got one more of those necklaces right yes here could you just give me give me
1:31:17
one second can can everyone just turn away for a sec can everyone just not go yeah i'll turn away yeah okay just give
1:31:24
me let me [Music] and a little a little side uh panel on
1:31:30
his head sort of pops open and there's there's just a little bit of a space there that you would be able to place
1:31:36
the necklace into [Laughter] yes for you i'll do this okay
1:31:42
like oh it feels weird oh okay i'm turned away and i'm like making
1:31:48
faces at flynn and try off like what is happening because we're not seeing this yeah
1:31:53
we're just hearing it okay it's okay i just gotta i gotta just real quick give me okay and then the panel closes
1:32:00
and uh yeah he's got the necklace inside of his head if you need to find the new body you
1:32:07
know i am the seeker i have some business and more things to
1:32:13
find but i'm sure i can help you if you'd be able to find someone who's able to do this but is going to be
1:32:19
discreet i would appreciate if you could send word um that would i would really appreciate
1:32:24
that i can i can do this we'll be on the lookout for such a
1:32:31
person as well yeah i think i just also want to say like that is it's up to you
1:32:37
i mean it seems like seeker could find you a body if you want to go with him get a body
1:32:42
you know feel free to if you want to stay with us you can as well it's your choice
1:32:49
well i if i'm not too much of a burden i like sort of having more hands around
1:32:55
um you know just i have a feeling i can find you all again
1:33:01
you're very skilled but not very discreet right i'm trying to teach them not to
1:33:07
make such a force but it's not him i mean you're called the seeker so you do seek people pretty regularly and um
1:33:14
seems like that's the kind of person who could find us i imagine even if we tried to hide you could probably
1:33:21
uh get the whereabouts of us it's slowly
1:33:26
slowly dawning on triad that that we are about to part ways and he is getting
1:33:32
more and more upset uh but holding it in kind of
1:33:39
shifting side to side and like resting against the staff looking away
1:33:45
stealing little glances at his hunting buddy from the day before
1:33:52
she she just comes over and says well you know
1:33:59
if he has to find you again it's me who will really do the finding
1:34:04
and then she kind of like buries her beak and her in her chest a
1:34:10
little bit plucks a feather and she's like
1:34:18
take this i'll reach out and grab it and hold it to my heart and say
1:34:25
i will carry it with me until we meet again and seek her
1:34:34
[Laughter] thank you for for
1:34:40
taking please take good care before me i know you will your presence
1:34:46
has been of the most incredible
1:34:51
occasion thank you of course you all are destined for good things i
1:34:59
think whatever that means right whatever it means
1:35:06
i think it means to protect and take care of each other
1:35:12
and do what you must
1:35:17
i will uh um extend a hand
1:35:22
uh to uh seeker and say
1:35:28
[Music] we are the agents of repair
1:35:35
folks like us get in we are the ones
1:35:43
i will fix all this make the world a better place
1:35:49
no matter what gods no matter what wars
1:35:59
it's upon us to rid the world of evil
1:36:06

1:36:12
and in your ear say [Music] all of that and
1:36:18
the world is here around us protect them we will meet again all of us
1:36:26
we will meet again if needed
1:36:32
and he will go back over to uh flynn say let's try this one more time
1:36:39
and he'll put his hands on your head and say a prayer
1:36:44
and he will give a vigilant blessing so for the next hour you get advantage on an
1:36:49
issue and then for those who don't have uh
1:36:54
night vision he's like i can't do much it is the middle of the day but in case
1:37:00
you need it here's some vision from an old god
1:37:05
that may or may not be good and give eyes of night to those who can't uh
1:37:10
we can't see in the darkness how long does that last uh eyes of night lasts uh an hour
1:37:19
[Music] and vigilant blessing lasts until you until i recast it or until you use it
1:37:26
okay for advantage and with that
1:37:32
uh seeker will and elder will
1:37:38
uh actually you've not seen it but elder would just land on his shoulder and
1:37:44
he will uh head down back towards the way you came and look for his horse
1:37:51
and uh head out all right and with that hi seeker
1:37:56
you guys see seeker hop on his horse with eldra on his shoulder
1:38:02
as he heads down the mountain slowly out of sight into the trees
1:38:09
and after a minute or two you can hear the clopping of his his horse
1:38:15
slowly begin to get quieter and quieter until you can't hear anything
1:38:21
and it's just the birds and the trees around you and the slight breeze that's rustling
1:38:27
you hear a mouse skittering over some of the rubble of this temple
1:38:33
so as seeker is now out of sight what would you guys like to do
1:38:40
put my necklace on yes yes do we we all got one right yes okay do we have does this count as an
1:38:46
attuned item um this is an attuned item yes
1:38:53
so we should spend some time and tuning into it put that on for sure
1:38:59
um well
1:39:04
where to now before we get too carried away i would
1:39:10
like to perhaps rinse off in this fountain it uh
1:39:15
it seems to have be having a good effect on my weary weary body
1:39:22
just don't ruffle your feathers on maestro let's hang out here for a bit
1:39:30
we've earned it if anyone would like to get married i can conduct the ceremony over and i
1:39:36
gesture to the altar at the front of the temple where there's there's three rings
1:39:42
and you can kind of see there's like an apparatus for where the rings could be drawn in closer together and apart
1:39:48
oh so now you mentioned that
1:39:54
i i give try a long look it's just like what
1:40:00
what is going on and then i will uh actually step outside of this this ruin okay um try you hop
1:40:07
into the fountain and um it's like right when you hop in it starts as like a tingling sensation um
1:40:14
and it's a little bit weird it's almost like your limbs have fallen asleep but then it dissipates after a second as you
1:40:19
realize that it's not your body that this is happening to it's all of the little pieces of like dirt that are
1:40:27
within your wings and and feathers are being singed away and after a minute um
1:40:33
after all the dirt and everything has been cinched away you're laying in this nice clean pool
1:40:39
ah it's even better than i thought this is probably the cleanest you've
1:40:45
ever been by the way so uh at when it seems like all of that
1:40:51
dirt has dissipated i'm i'm going to leap up in the air and let out
1:40:58
and just take off and uh and just have some fun up in the air
1:41:05
okay are you going anywhere specific outside
1:41:10
um [Music] i guess i would just go to the
1:41:16
i would just i would go just outside of this place and and just like if there's i'm assuming there's like
1:41:22
benches in that garden i would i would sit in one of the benches okay
1:41:29
um you doing anything yeah i'm going to go out i'm seeing kelly go out to chill
1:41:35
try having a bath it was a privacy and i'll go out and
1:41:40
hang out with um alec find him at the gardens and kind of sit down next to him
1:41:46
huh it's been a interesting day
1:41:53
seems like hopefully and i hold the necklace
1:41:59
hopefully we won't have to worry about hollow guard i guess for a bit
1:42:04
it's nice not to feel like we're immediately being
1:42:10
pursued that we can take a breath yeah well i've
1:42:15
been russian for some time now yeah
1:42:21
i mean what do we do next
1:42:26
well uh try to find
1:42:33
we've got to follow the threads of red wolf
1:42:40
but we also have to remember that alma's friend is in danger
1:42:48
right bastions of kaldor the greatest one of the biggest cities here
1:42:54
i mean while i did say they don't bother too much and i reach up and i grab one of the
1:43:00
horns they're getting a little annoying hi and they pulls a turret to us as well
1:43:07
yeah i don't know what's going to happen but getting rid of it might be a good idea first
1:43:13
i also do need to go back to addersfield check up on things
1:43:19
i had to turn this in and i reach into my backpack holding and i pull out the the head of the hook hoarder yeah
1:43:25
i gotta return this as uh to show him i did something cool and it's gross and smelly and i push it back in the back
1:43:32
pure i cleanse oh right right you're good so i pull it out and i show it like i do have to turn this back in
1:43:39
and i put it back in the back so i mean maybe we can kill two birds with one stone and
1:43:45
press these and turn this
1:43:50
in your possession is not demonic but might be worth trying a bath yourself in
1:43:56
there you think water i don't know uh it's unlikely
1:44:02
honestly because as far as i can tell these creatures aren't in direct
1:44:07
opposition to the light of the mirror right maybe i should do that
1:44:13
before i go in though do you think we're going to be leaving soon [Music]
1:44:18
the question is where to you know we have horses
1:44:24
i don't know maybe the next town over we can find someone to maybe take a look at these things if this doesn't work
1:44:29
uh do you have that map on you yeah i pull it out of the put on my backpack
1:44:35
lay it down uh in front of us on on the ground at the garden how far are you guys
1:44:40
from the entrance not too far just out in the garden yeah it's probably around the stream can i can i can i
1:44:47
hear you guys chatting about where to go next yeah i mean we're speaking at
1:44:53
like a normal conversation level it's not hush towns depends on if you can hear over uh
1:44:58
tria's splish screaming and flying around oh yeah i mean probably probably so
1:45:05
where you guys currently are in the mountains solaris is actually probably the closest
1:45:11
um city there is also another military outpost called blackdale um further south there
1:45:18
is the dakir ruins um which are not actively you know a city or anything
1:45:24
they're ruins and then if you cross over the mountain go across a river there is
1:45:29
the town of marstock [Music] right next to the gray forest at the base of the bartok rise
1:45:36
and i'll point at that on the map i mean that looks alright enough
1:45:44
yeah that would be i guess the easiest i guess we could just head there and
1:45:51
set up shop for a day or two and figure out where we want to go next it doesn't feel wise to
1:45:56
go to any more outposts military here they're pretty extreme
1:46:01
yeah especially with these things and i again point to the horns i don't really know if i want to go to an outpost
1:46:06
to try and fix these i think a city is probably a better bet um
1:46:15
um [Music] there any chance that we can go
1:46:21
to the capitol i
1:46:28
well
1:46:33
[Music] i wish i know what fate awaited your
1:46:40
fandom
1:46:45
uh why were you
1:46:52
i think i would stop at nothing to follow them i would
1:46:57
i think i would do the same yeah so
1:47:03
can we go [Music]
1:47:09
looking at the map if we're we're headed that direction yes yeah the uh
1:47:16
marstock would be on the way on the way towards the capitol how far away is the capital from where we are now
1:47:21
oh probably always yeah a long ways pretty much on the other side of the country
1:47:27
right oh jeez [Music]
1:47:35
yeah uh well we're in for it we go that way but
1:47:41
i can't let you do it all normal i don't want to do it alone because
1:47:46
when i'm with you i'm able to control my magic a little bit more and i haven't made any buildings explode so
1:47:54
to me it seems like for whatever reason you're helping me
1:48:02
so i i i want to go with you but but i do have to go
1:48:07
i'm in yeah yeah hi
1:48:13
even though you don't like seeker said uh
1:48:21
you all are the first uh
1:48:26
step the first uh the most immediate thing i can do to make
1:48:32
the world better i'll do it
1:48:38
i'll help you alma even though you don't know xavier
1:48:43
or what he did to be in chains we'll find that out
1:48:51
then we'll use our best judgment to know the right thing that's all we can do yeah
1:49:02
we know for certain that [Music] the organization that autumn and chains
1:49:09
might be under the same misguidance as the people that
1:49:14
carried out all of this and i gestured to the to the ruins around us
1:49:19
[Music] this kind of destruction i mean
1:49:24
i'm no fan of the old gods what
1:49:30
not warranted so to the capitol
1:49:35
to marstock and then the capital we could use a day off where are we on
1:49:43
the red wolf no what's we have any threads besides the hollow
1:49:48
guard um other than the cult right no
1:49:56
what kell gave us [Music] which was pantomime
1:50:03
to open the open dimensional doors yeah i mean pretty bad stuff but i i
1:50:08
mean we can ask i guess subtly
1:50:14
we also know from your letters that he was asked this his father ram was asked to stop
1:50:21
making keys by artemisia
1:50:27
who may or may not be artemisia you know we know a whole lot [Laughter]
1:50:33
never enough so uh we go get try and get out of here yes uh time is over the essence all
1:50:40
right good because um i'll hold my hand out
1:50:46
and i'll summon my sword back because i think there might be someone looking for us now ah and with that
1:50:52
we're going to end today's session
