The party tries to probe around the fortress of Karahai but without a solid plan everything they try seems to get foiled. Things get incredibly dangerous when spontaneity gets the better of their judgement.

SPEAKER_04 0:31

A life fulfilled. Not at the weddings, no, not at the funerals, not the victories, not the disasters. While you are waiting for the microwave at a red light, standing in a grocery store line, watching the ceiling, just praying for sleep, looking at passing scenery at a drive you won't remember once you arrive. Those tiny moments, those invisible moments. Moments to be ignored, now made unforgettable. The impossible does not announce itself before it shows its conglomerate head. Luckily for you, we do. Welcome to the odd box. Who here at the table has the singular best character quality?

SPEAKER_06 1:17

Scratches beard.

SPEAKER_03 1:30

It's it all builds to something. He's an incredible power to get things organized and driven that other people might think is a mental illness. It can be both.

SPEAKER_01 1:56

It's four steps forward, one step back, but everybody's still moving forward, so we're not going to complain that hard about it, I guess. Uh thank you. I'll take it. That's it. I'm the winner. No other answers necessary. Yeah. As the most competitive person to ever live, I will I like winning.

SPEAKER_02 2:14

So that's a positive character trait?

SPEAKER_01 2:17

No, the other one that life said was the positive character. Oh.

SPEAKER_02 2:20

And so you were just okay with it.

SPEAKER_01 2:21

This one has just lost me a lot of friends and you know, invitations and stuff.

SPEAKER_06 2:26

They weren't real friends. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 2:28

Yeah. They don't want to lose. They shouldn't invite me to places. So they stopped. Or they should just get good enough to beat you. Yeah, yeah. That's right.

SPEAKER_04 2:37

Why don't your kids play tetherball with you anymore?

SPEAKER_03 2:41

Mostly head injuries. Inquiries, investigations.

SPEAKER_01 2:48

They actually, we never, we never got I never got in trouble with playing tetherball with the kids.

SPEAKER_05 2:52

But um playing tetherball with the kids.

SPEAKER_01 2:58

But we've stopped playing tetherball because the kids figured out how to turn the tetherball into a trebuchet. Nice. And so now there's no rope. No, not. I mean, you should one man's X access.

SPEAKER_03 3:13

You're coming over in a couple weeks. I'll have them show you.

SPEAKER_01 3:17

We'll get you down there. They'll they'll be like, hey, stand in the field over there. You'll be like, right where? Right here? And they'll be like, yeah, just over a little bit. Here comes the flaming tetherball. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 3:26

Trabouche.

SPEAKER_01 3:28

So there's no tether ball down there anymore, I don't think. Actually, I think it's on the other side of the river. The neighbors have a tether ball with a rope, but no tetherball pole or anything.

SPEAKER_06 3:41

It's a start.

SPEAKER_01 3:42

Yeah. Yeah. It's a start. That's right. You can just put it on a tree. You know, I mean, tetherball, bam.

SPEAKER_06 3:51

Um, I'll also go with Kyle because he never says anything bad about anyone.

SPEAKER_04 3:59

And uh right now. I feel like I've heard him. I have definitely heard him.

SPEAKER_06 4:04

And he also doesn't typically take things personally.

SPEAKER_04 4:07

So yeah, but that's more of an IQ thing, not a you can see.

SPEAKER_01 4:15

It's like it's like insulting a cat. I don't know. You know what I mean? Especially if you're smiling.

SPEAKER_04 4:23

It's Kippley. I'm gonna go with Jeff.

SPEAKER_02 4:28

Huh? Why?

SPEAKER_04 4:29

Yeah, I always remind that. My mom was like, hey, don't uh worry about what other people think of you. And I don't think Jeff has ever thought once about what other people think of. I don't think he's capable of it. He's shoved that so far down. And I was like, man, I don't know if it's confidence or comfortability or whatever, but man, I could use a taste of it.

SPEAKER_01 4:48

Yeah. He does seem pretty self-possessed, which I really appreciate as a person who uh I mean that as a compliment, not as an insult. Uh like I don't like uh like social chameleons or people who will like be a different person in a different light because then I don't know how to deal with them. So like a lot of my very good friends going back in life have been frequently like the biggest assholes in the room. And it's like it's like I'm like, well, I like it. It's uh he's always like that.

SPEAKER_03 5:14

Yeah, there's very there's something very refreshing about somebody who will just call out the elephant in the room every time. Yeah, you know, it can be a little jarring at first, but then you come to find out that those people are just like doing everybody a huge favor. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 5:28

Well, thanks. I don't have anything good to say about you people. I wouldn't want you to lie now. Don't start now.

SPEAKER_01 5:35

It's the other side of that self-possessed coin. Uh-huh. Yeah. Part of it, real good. The other part, also good. Everything about it. Everything. No downsides. Kyle? Uh oh, it's my turn to nominate somebody. No, you can say yourself.

SPEAKER_04 5:49

I have the singular best quality because of what's your single best quality, Kyle. Everyone, I mean, you're winning this.

SPEAKER_03 5:55

He already did declare himself the winner. I did already declare myself the winner. Exactly. Bring it home.

SPEAKER_01 5:59

Does it have to be like a character quality? A character quality, like of the type of person they are. That's what that is.

SPEAKER_06 6:08

It is an IQ thing.

SPEAKER_01 6:13

We use character in a lot of different contexts, you know what I mean? I don't want to hear about Violet, not as class. Jokes on you, same person. Same person. Inseparable. I was gonna say who here's the best at pretending to be somebody they're not, and then I was gonna nominate that person, but it's probably me.

SPEAKER_03 6:32

I'm the I'm the most decorated thespian. Emphasis on decorated.

SPEAKER_01 6:43

See, decorated, another word we use a lot different ways. Um I'm gonna go with Courtney. Just because I'm gonna keep my reasons to myself. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 6:57

She has it, but you have to guess on what that quality is. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 7:01

So every time you do something for now. I wasn't gonna say it out loud.

SPEAKER_02 7:13

I mean, that is something a lot of people don't possess.

SPEAKER_04 7:16

You're telling me.

SPEAKER_00 7:22

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 7:27

I really appreciate that Courtney kind of like she likes she takes care of people, but not in like a doormat kind of way. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_04 7:34

I have seen that a lot.

SPEAKER_02 7:35

Like like she's a nurse or something.

SPEAKER_01 7:37

Yeah, you know, okay. That kind of vibe. Yeah. But not in a doormat kind of way. Some people will like uh give the shirt off their back when it's a really bad idea for them. Yeah. Martyrs. Martyrs.

SPEAKER_03 7:48

Yeah. Chronic people pleasers. Yeah. I'm a recovering chronic people pleaser.

SPEAKER_04 7:54

Courtney is not a people pleaser. She'll take care of you, but she will not make you happy about it. But you'll be fine. But you'll be fine.

SPEAKER_03 8:02

That's the difference between niceness and kindness. Yes. You know, you can be nice and be a shithead. But you can't be uh kind without helping somebody.

SPEAKER_04 8:15

Interventions aren't comfortable for everyone.

SPEAKER_03 8:16

You still have them every now and then. Yeah. Oh shit. Is that what this is? For two years, this has been an intervention for you, life.

SPEAKER_02 8:26

This is like hey, let him finish making that break before himself.

SPEAKER_01 8:31

It's finally happening.

SPEAKER_03 8:33

Like a Mexican standoff of intervention. Listen, I can stop T RPGs whenever I want.

SPEAKER_02 8:40

No, please don't. All of you are enablers. No, you're you're forget that's not what this one is about. It's about something else. We don't want you to stop. Yeah, that's the part that we need to continue on.

SPEAKER_01 8:49

We're all desperately hanging on to each other and trying to make sure this is. Oh shut up.

SPEAKER_04 8:54

I can't stop.

SPEAKER_03 8:56

Won't stop. Won't stop. Never gonna stop. Never stop, never stopping.

SPEAKER_02 9:01

See, if I quit, then that would mean that would make you a quitter. Yeah. That's why it took me so long to stop quitting to drink. Or however you say it.

SPEAKER_06 9:09

Didn't want to be a quitter. I'm not a quitter.

SPEAKER_04 9:20

Gonna beat this alcoholism by doubling down.

SPEAKER_03 9:22

Yeah. With both hands.

SPEAKER_04 9:27

You guys are kind of in the shit now.

SPEAKER_03 9:30

Mistakes were made.

SPEAKER_04 9:31

The relationships here at the table, some have strengthened from this conversation. Some have gotten worse. Just like your relationship with Raisho. As uh you guys realize he values his privacy and still hasn't entirely convinced himself to trust Haunties. Deciding you guys are drastically low on bone resources. You decide to mass desecrate a graveyard. And I mean you guys really pull your powers together here. Uh there's a pun in there with pooling your powers. And undead demanding to be restored back to life, you realize Pharasma is appalled that you would use her holy ground for your own ends. And because of your curse, you become paralyzed with what to do next. Deciding that you have to do something to return to the graveyard, only to find people already there working on restoring it. Bringing the question, would the world really be better off if he were to be restored? Maybe it is time, the Willowshore just fades away. The world's moved on. It's been 115 years. Fuck that. You leave a string of Juanas from the graveyard to Karahai.

SPEAKER_06 10:53

They'll put him back.

SPEAKER_04 10:54

Before making your way to the Fortress Pauper where you hope to sneak in. What is the hero point situation?

SPEAKER_01 11:01

Zero Zero Three. You know, do better, guys. This is one of the few times where I feel like three of us deserve zero hero points.

SPEAKER_00 11:13

Stop it, Kyle.

SPEAKER_04 11:18

You guys were uh sneaking in uh you wanted to go through the uh north gate.

SPEAKER_02 11:25

Right. North again.

SPEAKER_04 11:31

This gate is painted black. It's decorated with a painting of a jumping carp. A tiny clay statue of Abadar sits on the ground by one of the hinges. And the gate is closed.

SPEAKER_02 11:45

It's closed.

SPEAKER_04 11:47

Uh you guys have only seen this northern gate close.

SPEAKER_06 11:51

You said that there was um a patrol coming by, right?

SPEAKER_01 11:54

In the upper ring, upper rings.

SPEAKER_04 11:56

Yeah, so the on the second floor on this outer wall of Karahai, uh as far as you guys know, it goes the entire circumference of the fort and uh through these small slits and uh very tiny windows that again only probably RE could fit through. Uh you do see people walking past this north side, right where you guys are at. Uh no rules necessary at this point, but if you were to make a move either closer or even further away, there is a chance that you were seen. So you guys kinda like freeze up right now.

SPEAKER_02 12:28

How close are we to the gate at this point? 30 feet.

SPEAKER_03 12:30

Okay. I am going to go try to try the gate. Let's just open it. Yeah, Pops is gonna try the old idiot test.

SPEAKER_06 12:40

I should wait for them to pass by though.

SPEAKER_03 12:42

Oh, sure. Well, I'm you know, I was just gonna call it a sneak roll. Uh but yeah, he's watching, looking for an opening.

SPEAKER_04 12:49

Pause, pause, pause, and then yeah, go ahead. You don't see anyone.

SPEAKER_03 12:53

Stealth roll, that's 16 on dice plus stealth 19 for a 35 plus 136. You uh don't no one no alarms go off. You're inside one of the guards.

SPEAKER_00 13:07

I do have to get out of there.

SPEAKER_03 13:11

And uh is it I I walk up to the gate and do I see any sort of locking mechanism of any kind? Is it like bars that drop down? Is it like a door that swings open? Anything you can do from the outside to open it? Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 13:24

Uh you see just like uh basic handles on the front, uh horizontal handles made of iron. Uh you don't see any standard locking mechanism. You pull on it and it is locked.

SPEAKER_03 13:38

Maybe barricaded. Perhaps. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 13:42

Well, son of a bitch. I thought we could just walk in.

SPEAKER_03 13:45

I'll uh I'll sneak back to the party.

SPEAKER_04 13:49

And we'll roll that check over. Roll for it? No, we'll roll the check over. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_02 13:54

Um I got confused. You said roll. Yeah. Well, I could throw a cart through it, but that's definitely gonna kill the element of surprise.

SPEAKER_03 14:05

Maybe we should try the gate on the east.

SPEAKER_01 14:08

What about can you guys use magic for illusion? To open the gate? No, make play to scare everybody.

SPEAKER_06 14:15

We could do that, but then what? It only takes a few seconds and then it would cause chaos and it would probably everyone would be on alert.

SPEAKER_02 14:22

Right. And then we run away. Well, I I thought we were going in. Oh, okay. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. We are trying to scout out inside the fort now. We haven't been the fort now.

SPEAKER_01 14:32

I forgot we were scouting.

SPEAKER_06 14:33

Are you feeling okay?

SPEAKER_01 14:35

Well, I'm a little nervous about what happened to my nose that you made me that fell off earlier.

SPEAKER_06 14:42

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 14:42

Violet bonded with it. The fake nose. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 14:46

And the fake mustache. I don't know why you put the mustache. The mustache tickled.

SPEAKER_01 14:49

I didn't like the mustache. Every time I breathe in and get in my nostrils.

SPEAKER_06 14:52

You insisted I put it on.

SPEAKER_01 14:54

I thought it would be cool. It was pretty cool. Sankers got mustache. He looks very handsome.

SPEAKER_06 15:00

So why don't we continue around the wall and we'll try to find a way in. Even if it's through the western gate, maybe we can go invisible, sneak in or something.

SPEAKER_02 15:10

Let's go east first. Okay. Okay. So because that one is the western is definitely going to be the most patrolled, I think. So maybe just kind of wake make our way around. I guess this is kind of where we burnt the east wall, is kind of where we burnt down the lumber storage. It was sort of in this direction. Southeastern. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 15:30

So I guess we'll We're gonna make our way around the fort looking for an open gate. To the east gate. East and then south, then west. Trying to keep a respectable space.

SPEAKER_04 15:42

You guys move to the east. Give me stealth check.

SPEAKER_03 15:46

Follow the leader. How much do I get again? Was it 13? That's a natural two on dice plus stealth 19 for a 21.

SPEAKER_06 15:53

I think it's 12.

SPEAKER_03 15:54

I got 22 then.

SPEAKER_02 15:56

27?

SPEAKER_06 15:57

Got a natural one.

SPEAKER_02 15:58

Oh nice.

SPEAKER_06 15:59

Uh that's gonna be 15. She starts crying again. Then she trips.

SPEAKER_01 16:10

She trips on the corner like a brace that's supporting a pallet that's propping up a bunch of clay jars.

SPEAKER_03 16:16

Stop crying, you're going to make me cry. Foo, love it.

SPEAKER_01 16:20

Throw herself down the water.

SPEAKER_04 16:23

From your stupidity. You hear footsteps coming from the upper ring as people are like rushing over. I think I heard something. Should we raise the alarm? No, send out a patrol. And the eastern gate opens up and people begin like banning out.

unknown 16:48

Fireball.

SPEAKER_03 16:49

Yeah, I have an idea. I have an idea. And uh pops pops uh triggers passion. He moves he moves a little bit away away from the group, but then he uh he triggers passion in front of the guards coming out of the gate and uh and he he says to the the crowd Gugopti will curse you and then he flies away.

SPEAKER_06 17:22

So passion is when you turn on fire.

SPEAKER_04 17:25

Yeah, can you paint a picture for everyone uh like so I can like close my eyes and see what's going on?

SPEAKER_06 17:31

You don't want to picture passion.

SPEAKER_03 17:32

Pops Pops runs over in front of the the guards and and he lights up blue propane flames and uh great glowing eyes and and uh a curse is upon you all in his best scary voice that he can do. And then uh and then he lifts up off the ground, he triggers the flying and he lifts up off the ground and then he uh the the the idea is to try and lead everybody away.

SPEAKER_04 17:58

Give me an intimidation check.

SPEAKER_03 17:59

Okay sixteen on dice plus intimidation zero for sixteen. Plus one plus one, seventeen.

SPEAKER_04 18:10

They just begin launching arrows at you as you're flying away. Okay and uh the rest of you that are still around can hear them. I knew there were spirits around. Where did they come from? I don't know. But we must begin the exorcism. We must banish these spirits. Yes. By tomorrow morning we will be ready. Make sure all the shrine maidens are aware. Make sure the enforcers tighten up their patrols that we won't let them get away with this.

SPEAKER_06 18:37

How many are there?

SPEAKER_04 18:40

Six fireball.

SPEAKER_01 18:43

Before you fireball, can I run out real quick?

SPEAKER_06 18:45

Ari's going to start like going into her pocket to get the fireball. And she just flings that at him. Reflexes.

SPEAKER_04 18:55

Everyone roll initiative.

SPEAKER_01 19:00

That's not bad.

SPEAKER_06 19:01

Do uh minus two to life and me.

SPEAKER_01 19:06

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 19:08

Spirits didn't like them talking about banishing him.

SPEAKER_04 19:15

Violet.

SPEAKER_01 19:16

Yeah. Uh sorry. Uh 23. 19.

SPEAKER_04 19:22

Ari.

SPEAKER_06 19:23

25.

SPEAKER_03 19:24

Pops. 31 minus 2 for 29.

SPEAKER_02 19:30

Gardas wasn't ready for any of this. He's just like, where the hell is Pops going? Looking up in the sky as Ari flicks the pearl into the group of people.

SPEAKER_03 19:50

Oh, the shrine maidens are so fast.

SPEAKER_04 19:53

Ari, you get the surprise round as uh they're all kind of like trying to chase Pops away. Uh so Pops, you are like a f full turn, 150 feet away, sort of thing. Okay. And uh I have to roll reflex saves.

SPEAKER_05 20:08

Yep.

SPEAKER_04 20:14

Okay, for the two in front. 34?

SPEAKER_06 20:19

Pass.

SPEAKER_04 20:21

Uh 28.

SPEAKER_06 20:23

Pass.

SPEAKER_04 20:24

Crimson guy in the middle. Uh 22.

SPEAKER_06 20:28

Fail.

SPEAKER_04 20:29

The three Shy mains left or right. 20.

SPEAKER_06 20:35

Fail.

SPEAKER_04 20:36

30.

SPEAKER_06 20:37

Pass.

SPEAKER_04 20:39

32.

SPEAKER_06 20:41

Pass. Um, so the ones that passed take nine, and the ones that failed take 19. And then I rolled three hours for my cooldown. Reload. Cooldown.

SPEAKER_02 20:58

Was that how many d6s? Was that like middle of the road?

SPEAKER_06 21:02

Seven.

SPEAKER_01 21:03

So average damage on seven d6 would be like a little under twenty. No, it'd be twenty one plus three and a half. So twenty-four and a half. So it's a low. Mm-hmm. A little low.

SPEAKER_02 21:17

I think at this point we're kind of we're kind of stuck at just attacking the east gate where we're at right now. Like we might as well just finish these guys off and just continue pushing on into the gate. Like, I don't see anything wrong with that. Or I don't really see any more options. Unless we want to just keep circling around the fort for another twenty days.

SPEAKER_06 21:45

Yeah, I just worry about them calling for backup.

SPEAKER_03 21:48

I do too. Of course. We should probably try and fight it for as long as we can. Yeah. Yeah. But everybody's able to fly away.

SPEAKER_02 21:55

Yeah, we can all we all have flies, so we can all just cast fly and leave.

SPEAKER_01 21:58

Yeah. I don't.

SPEAKER_02 22:00

Yeah, you do. What did you prepare?

SPEAKER_01 22:02

The regular things. Passion. Chilling touch.

SPEAKER_02 22:06

I feel like we talked about this and said I can make her fly. To fla get fly.

SPEAKER_01 22:11

Everybody says what they want to do. Violet wants to do what Violet wants to do.

SPEAKER_06 22:16

Well, then, um Everybody casts fly and like leaves, and then Violet's still on the ground fighting it out.

SPEAKER_04 22:27

They're here. The spirits are attacking. And I need all three of you to give me fortitude saves as she runs forward and casts a spell.

SPEAKER_02 22:38

30? Do we have to be all clumped up like this?

SPEAKER_04 22:41

You guys can move yourselves where you want. I think we would be clumped up.

SPEAKER_02 22:45

At least I don't feel like we were out in the open. Like in the middle of the road.

SPEAKER_06 22:49

It's just a map, just like I don't care.

SPEAKER_02 22:52

We were hiding behind the fountain.

SPEAKER_06 22:54

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 22:56

Uh you said what saves? 42. God damn it.

SPEAKER_04 23:03

Ari.

SPEAKER_06 23:04

31.

SPEAKER_04 23:05

Uh pass the ticap.

SPEAKER_02 23:06

I'm gonna use one of these.

SPEAKER_06 23:08

Hero point, what'd you roll?

SPEAKER_01 23:10

Natural two. I also was actually a 31 if I wanted plus one. Better.

SPEAKER_02 23:17

2030. Net dirty 30.

SPEAKER_06 23:19

2030.

SPEAKER_04 23:20

Uh everyone will take half damage.

SPEAKER_02 23:24

Violet's token is still just a dinosaur. Yeah, I need to bring in art.

SPEAKER_04 23:30

Uh it's 39 damage, wickets half to uh 18.

SPEAKER_00 23:36

Woof.

SPEAKER_04 23:37

What kind of damage? 18 points of spirit damage as she casts divine wrath.

SPEAKER_02 23:42

That sounds like it should heal us.

SPEAKER_06 23:45

So we are we have temporary hit points.

SPEAKER_02 23:49

Yeah, 18 temporary hit points. That's what I wrote down.

SPEAKER_04 23:56

This next shrine main steps forward. We won't let them escape. And what's this? That sounds ominous. And she will whisper a chant into her bow as she strings an arrow, knocks an arrow, whispers to it, it begins to glow with this golden light, and as she unleashes it, you just see the arrow begin to multiply in the air. I need Violet and Ari to give me reflex saves.

SPEAKER_01 24:36

Um it was a slow roll, too.

SPEAKER_06 24:41

It rolled on to a 14 and then just like slowly bounced back.

SPEAKER_04 24:47

So Ari is unaffected as she hides behind Violet.

SPEAKER_06 24:52

This goes over my head. Yeah. Gotta shoot down here.

SPEAKER_04 24:58

Who will take 31 points of force damage on your fail.

SPEAKER_03 25:04

These guys hit pretty hard.

SPEAKER_01 25:06

Oh guys, I don't think we can stay here.

SPEAKER_04 25:08

The next shrine main steps up. Don't worry, sisters, they won't get away. All three of you, I need fortitude saves. As she casts divine wrath as well. Gardus.

SPEAKER_02 25:25

37.

SPEAKER_04 25:27

Standard pass?

SPEAKER_02 25:28

32?

SPEAKER_04 25:29

Standard pass.

SPEAKER_06 25:30

25.

SPEAKER_04 25:32

Standard pass.

SPEAKER_06 25:33

Really?

SPEAKER_02 25:34

Wait, then how is mine a standard pass?

SPEAKER_04 25:39

Critical success. DC 25. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 25:42

Okay, okay. I'm confused.

SPEAKER_04 25:46

Uh comes to 28 points of spirit damage, half to 14. Pops, it's your turn. You're not even on the map because I think your movement speed is like 300 or something.

SPEAKER_03 26:06

Yeah. I'll uh I will spend the turn flying back to my my comrades. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 26:14

What is your movement speed?

SPEAKER_03 26:15

It is uh 50 when my uh shoes are on. So much. When I've got my spark and thousand league sandals.

SPEAKER_02 26:24

So like you fly off thinking to yourself that you're some grand distraction, and then all of a sudden you hear the guards shouting about it and firing off arrows, and you turn and look around, and all of us are just standing out in the open.

SPEAKER_03 26:35

I was just trying to draw them off for a round. Right. Yeah, that looks like that looks great.

SPEAKER_04 26:44

And then you guys have fought these guys before. He will charge forward two-hand his sword and swing once on Ari. Ooh, and that is not a good roll. 24.

SPEAKER_06 27:04

That's a hit.

SPEAKER_01 27:05

Intercept attack.

SPEAKER_06 27:07

What?

SPEAKER_01 27:08

So what is this? Uh an ally within 10 feet takes physical damage. You fling yourself into the way of the oncoming harm to protect the ally. You can step, but you must end your movement adjacent to the triggering ally. You take the damage instead of the triggering ally, applying your own immunities, weaknesses, and resistances to the damage, not the allies.

SPEAKER_04 27:26

Is this a reaction?

SPEAKER_01 27:27

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 27:28

You haven't had a turn yet.

SPEAKER_01 27:29

I don't care because command uh guardians get the reactions and initiative.

SPEAKER_06 27:35

He got you! I don't care.

SPEAKER_04 27:40

I don't care.

SPEAKER_06 27:40

I don't care.

SPEAKER_04 27:42

Always ready to go. Do you take your step?

SPEAKER_01 27:45

Um, I'm already adjacent, so I mean if you want me to story. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_04 27:49

Just step up so that you at least no. I was just asking if you wanted to take your own. I am actually gonna take it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 27:56

I am. Now that I'm looking at the map and playing like somebody who sees a map. Yeah, yeah. I'm gonna go ahead and take my step. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 28:01

Ridiculous. Do I have to? No. No, you don't. Just wanted to make sure we did this in order. Uh so you so I roll damage and all that other stuff normally, and you are gonna take it. Uh-huh. Do you have resistances?

SPEAKER_01 28:14

Maybe.

SPEAKER_04 28:16

Is that how we're playing it?

SPEAKER_01 28:18

Uh you you gain resistance to physical damage equal to one plus half your level.

SPEAKER_04 28:22

Damn.

SPEAKER_03 28:22

Wow.

SPEAKER_04 28:23

We got a real tank.

SPEAKER_01 28:24

That's nice.

SPEAKER_04 28:25

Uh it's 22 points of slashing damage.

SPEAKER_01 28:29

So minus five is 17. Hmm.

SPEAKER_04 28:34

Ari.

unknown 28:35

Ari.

SPEAKER_06 28:35

Ready to go. Yeah, Ari's going to cast fly on Violet Wagon and then run around the corner. Uh so, well, she can't quite get there. So run back. She wants to take cover, but she can't. She's not fast enough.

SPEAKER_01 28:52

Violet. Um, if I've got the ability to fly now, I'm gonna bite this guy once. Because no, I'm gonna shove him. That's what I'm gonna do.

SPEAKER_05 29:03

There you go.

SPEAKER_01 29:04

Here we go. Into the fountain. Natural 20. Yes. For a 38 total.

SPEAKER_04 29:09

Yes. He's afraid of water. 38 against my forward? Yeah, that's a critical second.

SPEAKER_01 29:14

Okay, so he shoves however far he goes, and then I guess we double the damage. Would we double the damage?

SPEAKER_02 29:19

I don't see why you wouldn't.

SPEAKER_04 29:21

I don't I don't know what you're doing. Yes, because shove doesn't actually deal damage. Mine does. Just again. I don't I don't what's it called?

SPEAKER_01 29:29

Um, it's called punishing shove, I think. Um his pants here. I'm just reading the one. Critical success. You push the target up to 10 feet away from you. You can stride after it, but you must move the same direction. I don't really want to do that.

SPEAKER_04 29:43

Uh and then to tell you what the thing is called Takes amount of bludgeoning damage equal to your strength modifier or double that amount on a critical success. Hey, look. Reading the ability explains the ability. This damage increases by two when you become an expert in athletics, six when you become a master, and twelve when you become legendary.

SPEAKER_01 30:02

Uh yeah. So yeah, so it says you double it on a crit, so yeah, twenty points of damage he takes.

SPEAKER_04 30:09

Um what's your rank in uh athletics?

SPEAKER_01 30:12

Master.

SPEAKER_04 30:13

So you added your six?

SPEAKER_01 30:15

Yep. And doubled it. Uh so critical. Ten feet away. Yep.

SPEAKER_04 30:21

5'10. And how much damage you say?

SPEAKER_01 30:24

Um 20. Damn. What a shove. What a shove. What a shove.

unknown 30:30

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 30:32

That is, I feel like, what it would be like to get shoved by a seven-foot-tall lizard person. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 30:36

Like that should be the minimum. Not your crit. That should be the minimum.

SPEAKER_04 30:41

Just bounces off this fountain.

SPEAKER_01 30:43

So that's one action. Um for my uh other two actions, I'm going to just fly away, I guess. Uh is we're at Eastgate. So we came in from the north, so I'm gonna fly towards Pops at whatever my speed is. 50 feet of fly away. Fly. My turn. Your turn.

SPEAKER_05 31:06

I'm worried, guys. I'm worried.

SPEAKER_01 31:10

I probably shouldn't have left Ari there. My shove is one point better than my to hit.

SPEAKER_03 31:17

Oh yeah, these guys are tough. He's only injured because he's near death now.

SPEAKER_06 31:22

There's only 20 points of damage.

SPEAKER_03 31:24

Yeah, it wasn't much.

SPEAKER_06 31:26

Which was a lot for a shove, but in the grand scheme of things.

SPEAKER_02 31:31

There's just too many of them. Do you have the ghost power list thing? How many actions does it take to cast fly for our ghost powers? Fly is two actions, I want to say. I mean, I know it normally is, but I'm just wondering if it is on this thing. Yeah, on the magical power. Yeah. Two actions once per day. Okay.

SPEAKER_04 31:52

This guy in the crimson robe steps forward, makes eye contact with Gardas, and says, I command you to stay.

SPEAKER_02 31:59

Give me a will save. I am going to. Uh-oh. Is this our is this our old spell friend? Command? Use my reaction when I attempt a will save to give myself away.

SPEAKER_04 32:11

You haven't had a turn that you don't have reactions.

SPEAKER_02 32:13

I don't care because that's just not how I want to play. Are you a guardian? We have a guardian in the party, so it doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_04 32:22

Yeah, in the party, so everyone gets the reactions.

SPEAKER_02 32:25

We needed a commander. Ooh, that's good. What save was it? Will. 35. Ooh, that's pretty good.

SPEAKER_04 32:35

That is a standard success. Because it's DC26.

SPEAKER_06 32:41

Did you add your plus one?

SPEAKER_02 32:42

I did. Okay.

SPEAKER_04 32:43

Unaffected.

SPEAKER_02 32:45

Hooray.

SPEAKER_06 32:46

Did you also mark off your ability?

SPEAKER_02 32:48

I'm not marking it off because I apparently can't use it yet.

SPEAKER_06 32:51

Gardas.

SPEAKER_02 32:53

Um, I guess we're just getting the fuck out of here and leaving Ari.

SPEAKER_06 32:58

Yep. She had to spend her turn giving a party member flight because they failed to prepare it, which was the plan. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 33:06

And then that party member just ditched you out.

SPEAKER_06 33:09

He did take a hit for me. I appreciate that.

SPEAKER_02 33:10

Yeah, but now you're gonna have to take a only personal turn.

SPEAKER_06 33:14

You are fucked.

SPEAKER_02 33:15

Uh I guess I will cast fly on myself. And as my reaction, I'm going to use Zealous Strike, because whenever I cast. Oh wait. I wonder if this would work on it. Um well. So could I use Zealous Strike on this? Because it's normally like whenever I use one of my holy spells.

SPEAKER_04 33:42

Zealous Strike or Zealous Rush?

SPEAKER_02 33:43

Zealous Rush. Sorry, not Zealous Strike. Yeah. Zealous Rush.

SPEAKER_04 33:46

Are you casting a spell? Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 33:47

It's the power. It's not the sp it's not so then.

SPEAKER_04 33:52

So no.

SPEAKER_06 33:53

It's the spirit power. It's not a spell. It's not this isn't a spell.

SPEAKER_02 33:56

Alright, then I can't use that. Okay. Then I will just use my uh normal action, my last action to fly, sort of starting to get up and away. I'm not as fast as everybody else. So I'm gonna try and put some cover behind myself, like going sort of angled this way towards these roofs, because I want to get to the other side of these roofs.

SPEAKER_04 34:21

If you guys right click on your tokens in the upper left corner, you will be able to add altitude to yourselves. Oh. Anything else, Gardas?

SPEAKER_06 34:30

Um So you can fly equal to your speed or 30 feet.

SPEAKER_02 34:33

30 feet, so I get 30 feet now.

SPEAKER_01 34:35

Yeah, and going up is like difficult terrain, right? So every five, it's like doubles double distances for going up.

SPEAKER_02 34:42

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 34:43

So if you want to go up 10 feet, you gotta burn 20.

SPEAKER_02 34:45

Okay, so I'm somewhere around there then, is my guess. So yeah, definitely within like volley range. But I mean, really, everybody is.

SPEAKER_01 34:57

We're all spread out, that's good for a party. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 35:01

I'm fucked.

SPEAKER_01 35:02

Oh yeah, go over.

SPEAKER_04 35:05

He moves forward, his bow drawn.

SPEAKER_02 35:10

Remember, guys, we have our reactions now.

SPEAKER_04 35:14

The shot will be on Gardas with the longbow natural 20. Oh my god, miss.

SPEAKER_02 35:23

Miss.

SPEAKER_06 35:25

You have your reaction.

SPEAKER_02 35:28

Dodge. I use my reaction to dodge that shot so it misses.

SPEAKER_04 35:33

Well, hold on. They have their warden's protection. So that'll be 2d8.

SPEAKER_02 35:41

You didn't announce beforehand that you were using that power. I don't have to. It seems like something you would.

SPEAKER_04 35:46

So it's just a box I have to check. Uh 34 points of piercing damage.

SPEAKER_02 35:52

I check the box where I only take 32 points of piercing damage.

SPEAKER_04 35:57

Second attack.

SPEAKER_02 35:59

Is this still on guardus?

SPEAKER_04 36:01

On guardus. 28?

SPEAKER_02 36:05

Hmm. Barely hits.

SPEAKER_04 36:08

Oh man, minimum damage. Hooray. Uh 11 points of piercing damage?

SPEAKER_02 36:13

One point of piercing damage.

SPEAKER_04 36:17

And then we'll go to the beginning of round two. I feel like you guys made a mistake here. Uh I don't understand why we did the the fireball in a group of uh six combatants.

SPEAKER_01 36:30

Because it was funny. Okay.

SPEAKER_04 36:33

See how funny this is now, I guess. Uh first shrine maiden. She will step forward to get close to Ari. And then shoot a violet. Ari needs to give me a will save. She begins casting a spell.

SPEAKER_06 36:55

32?

SPEAKER_04 36:58

Standard pass.

SPEAKER_03 37:00

So far so good. Mm-hmm. Unaffected.

SPEAKER_06 37:02

It's just gonna be half damage, so it's just gonna be like 15.

SPEAKER_04 37:05

Planer tether.

SPEAKER_06 37:07

Oh.

SPEAKER_04 37:09

You can't move from the current plane while you are affected by planar tell tether. It tries to counteract any teleportation effect that would move the target or any effect that would transport it to a different plane.

SPEAKER_02 37:21

Yeah, we don't have that anyway.

SPEAKER_04 37:23

But she sees that you are ghostly and doesn't want you to get away. Yeah. So she moved and casts a spell. Number two will go.

SPEAKER_03 37:31

Isn't that one of the ghost abilities is to be able to phase through stuff?

SPEAKER_02 37:36

I don't remember. I remember phasing through stuff, but I don't know if we are leaving the plane. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 37:43

You can become incorporeal, I believe.

SPEAKER_01 37:46

Maybe we should do that and to sneak through the wall. You only do it once a day for up to five rounds.

SPEAKER_06 37:51

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 37:52

So, I mean, we could do it, especially if we We could get in. Yeah, especially if we mashed it with some invisibility.

SPEAKER_02 37:58

Especially if we all prepared the thing like we were talking about.

SPEAKER_01 38:01

I do what I do.

SPEAKER_02 38:02

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_04 38:03

Two arrows fly at Ari. Here's the first one. Ooh, terrible roll. 23.

SPEAKER_06 38:10

Miss.

SPEAKER_04 38:11

Second attack. Barely. It happened, you guys. You heard it. 104, 103 episodes.

SPEAKER_05 38:18

104 episodes.

SPEAKER_04 38:19

Natural one.

SPEAKER_05 38:21

Sucker.

SPEAKER_01 38:22

Her bow breaks.

SPEAKER_04 38:22

This is not how I thought this was gonna go. She bants fall down.

SPEAKER_01 38:25

She's gonna mask off the Oni mask.

SPEAKER_04 38:27

Now the third Shrine Maiden fountain. We'll move forward and whispers to her knocked arrow. Ari, give me a reflex save.

SPEAKER_06 38:42

Oh 26.

SPEAKER_04 38:47

Fail. Don't die. You take 44 points of force damage. As these arrows just begin to multiply as it flies through the air.

SPEAKER_06 39:01

Cool.

SPEAKER_04 39:03

Are you up?

SPEAKER_06 39:04

Yep. Perfectly fine. Don't worry, guys. I can take them all by myself.

SPEAKER_03 39:09

Pops.

SPEAKER_02 39:10

Go get her.

SPEAKER_03 39:11

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 39:12

Yeah, that's not what we're doing.

SPEAKER_03 39:14

Yeah, let's see how far away she is. Where's the measuring tool? Same place it's always been. I've never used it before, so. I use my dick. Yeah, stop putting that up on the screen.

SPEAKER_06 39:26

Please stop.

SPEAKER_03 39:27

I need to measure things. Control click? That doesn't work.

SPEAKER_01 39:33

No matter how much I zoom, it's still hard to see.

SPEAKER_03 39:37

There we go. Thank you very much. 85 feet. So that is enough for me to fly, f fly.

SPEAKER_04 39:48

Is this doing the diagonals correctly, though?

SPEAKER_03 39:51

Yeah. Why wouldn't it? That's only four diagonals, right? Yeah, so I think uh that's Pops' plan is going to uh fly, fly, and then essentially just body block for Ari. Oh, you know, I can shift uh my eminence from one thing to another. Yeah, I'll shift my eminence from Thousand League Sandals to uh Titan Breaker, and then I'll give her the Radiant 16 health points. Sweet. And I'll stand.

SPEAKER_02 40:23

Does that make it so we can spend our reactions to move?

SPEAKER_04 40:26

No.

SPEAKER_02 40:26

Oh. No. Which one does? One of them does. Well, you have to be in range. You have to be So yeah, you're doing it over here close to us, though, right?

SPEAKER_03 40:35

No, I'm all the way. The only person who did it over there. Okay. That would conceivably get it would be violet.

SPEAKER_04 40:42

So hold on. Because I want to make sure we do this right. You sparked your sandals from where you were.

SPEAKER_03 40:48

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_04 40:48

So when you do that is when you give the radiant. Doesn't that person have to be within like 15 or 20 feet?

SPEAKER_03 40:54

Let's find out.

SPEAKER_04 40:56

So I think the only person to get to the top of the top. Oh, yeah, I think you're right. The only person you could give it to would be Violet.

SPEAKER_03 41:01

Yeah, I think you're right.

SPEAKER_01 41:04

I mean, I'll take it. I'm down a lot. Okay.

SPEAKER_04 41:09

You guys are like, let's be careful. We don't want to fight anyone. Oh, a superior force. Let's go.

SPEAKER_03 41:15

An ally within 30 feet.

SPEAKER_04 41:19

So do you give it to Violet?

SPEAKER_03 41:20

I give it to Violet.

SPEAKER_04 41:21

Sick. And then is that two or three actions? You sparked on your sandals, which includes the move.

SPEAKER_03 41:28

Which includes the move. And then uh between that move, which would be 50, and then after I spark it, I'd still have 40 feet of movement, so that gets me to 90. That was only 85. So one action left? Uh spark transcendence. Move. And then one action left. I what's the best thing I can do here?

SPEAKER_04 41:53

Put your hands up and surrender?

SPEAKER_03 41:54

No. I mean.

SPEAKER_02 42:00

That's not exactly a bad call. They're just gonna try to exercise us. They don't know that they can just slit our throats.

SPEAKER_06 42:11

They have that um the like essence, what's it called? Yeah. Incense that they've been burning that's been fucking us up. Yeah. Who knows what else they have up their sleeve?

SPEAKER_04 42:25

They got big sleeves.

SPEAKER_06 42:26

They could probably just send us back to Willowshore and then we'd have to do the ritual all over again. There's no way that we're getting natural twenties again.

SPEAKER_03 42:32

Yeah. Um. I guess I'll just try to. Is there any way I can defend somebody?

SPEAKER_01 42:38

Is there any way I can ready an action if you have two actions, but be cover?

SPEAKER_03 42:44

No, I'm just gonna be cover. I'm gonna preach at him. Preach at him? At them. You are all working for Kugopti. You must change your evil ways. Religion. Uh eighteen on religion. Plus uh 14 for a uh a 32?

SPEAKER_06 43:05

That's fine.

SPEAKER_03 43:05

33? I deliver a sermon. It's bracing. Yeah, it's actually really good.

SPEAKER_04 43:12

I'm very deliberately not interacting with the roles I don't call for. That's fine. I don't know, like I don't know how to. I was like, maybe you're trying to demoralize them.

SPEAKER_02 43:21

I don't know what else to do. Yeah. There's a tear in the corner of Gardas' eye. I I just throwing up a prayer. That was beautiful.

SPEAKER_04 43:28

I know Ferrasman doesn't like me very much right now, but so you guys are both near the ground then.

SPEAKER_00 43:34

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_04 43:36

Okay. Two action run up. Uh I guess uh Yeah, he'll just get there. And swing on pops. Bring it. Bastard Sword. Twenty-nine. Low, low damage on this one. 13 points of slashing damage. Ari.

SPEAKER_06 44:04

It's my turn. Ari will cast fly on herself and she will uh take off in the direction of Violet. Or is that is that which way do we want to go?

SPEAKER_01 44:14

I mean you can just go that's the way we came in. Yeah. But you could get up on top of a building or I think we all know where we're escaping to.

SPEAKER_03 44:21

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 44:21

So you can just go away.

SPEAKER_03 44:23

I think just out of danger would be the best. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 44:26

Okay. I think uh she would probably naturally go down the um road that she's on, so just like to the left, but that's where the map ends. So she would fly um is it 25 or 30? I think it's 30.

SPEAKER_04 44:42

But you're also going up, right?

SPEAKER_06 44:43

Yeah, she'll go diagonally up.

SPEAKER_04 44:46

So only like 15 feet away?

SPEAKER_06 44:49

Sure. That's my turn.

SPEAKER_02 44:51

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. If we can get onto the other side of the buildings, then we can like book it in one direction and then start flying away.

SPEAKER_04 44:59

Violet. Brave, brave, violet.

SPEAKER_01 45:01

Yeah. Left too early. Um, I'm gonna just follow Ari, I guess. I'm gonna go kind of up over the building.

SPEAKER_04 45:09

So yeah, and I encourage you guys to track your altitude uh right-clicking on your tokens and then the upper left corner. So you're spinning all three actions to move? Yep. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 45:18

How tall are these houses? Oh. You know what else I forgot? When that guy attacked me, I have got the passion going.

SPEAKER_04 45:27

Oh, your passion? Yeah, and you've been doing that wrong. You've just been like doing damage right off the bat, but doesn't it call for like a reflex save or something?

SPEAKER_03 45:33

No, reactive scrooch uh reaction trigger. A creature strikes you.

SPEAKER_04 45:37

Keep going.

SPEAKER_03 45:37

Uh effect. The creature takes 2d6 fire damage, basic reflex save. There it is.

SPEAKER_06 45:42

He said no. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 45:44

Check the box where he doesn't get that.

SPEAKER_03 45:46

No.

SPEAKER_04 45:47

Uh okay. We'll we'll recon two, three turns.

SPEAKER_03 45:51

Thank you. I appreciate that. Well, it could happen.

SPEAKER_06 45:52

It's only round two. It's tampen.

SPEAKER_04 45:54

Uh turns, not rounds. Okay. Uh 31.

SPEAKER_03 46:00

Is that against my class DC?

SPEAKER_04 46:03

I think we decided ghost powers or class DC or spell DC, whichever is higher. Oh, it does specify.

SPEAKER_03 46:08

Uh spell DC? I don't know if I have a spell DC. You probably don't. Oh no, I do have a let's see here. 12. Uh 22 plus 10. So 33? 32.

SPEAKER_06 46:19

It is uh class DC or spell DC.

SPEAKER_04 46:21

You don't add 10 to your spell DC. The spell DC already has 10 added to it.

SPEAKER_03 46:24

Got it, gotta. So it's uh it's uh 23.

SPEAKER_04 46:29

What'd I say? 32? Yeah 31? 31.

SPEAKER_03 46:32

So nothing. Or half damage. Half damage. Hey, that's five. Or I'm sorry, ten. Two fives. I can do math.

SPEAKER_04 46:43

Five damage?

SPEAKER_03 46:44

Yes.

SPEAKER_04 46:46

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 46:47

Thank you.

SPEAKER_04 46:48

Um okay. This guy steps up, levels his torch at Gardas, and rolls this attack. 25.

SPEAKER_02 47:02

It's just an attack? Yep. Spell attack. AC. Miss.

unknown 47:06

Okay.

SPEAKER_04 47:07

This burst of bright golden light just goes past your head. Oh shit. And it is your turn, Gardas.

SPEAKER_02 47:15

Kind of duck out of the way. Um, I'm going to start touching myself.

SPEAKER_04 47:22

Because you don't want anybody else.

SPEAKER_02 47:23

To heal uh 4010 for my beacon.

SPEAKER_03 47:27

I like to imagine that Gardas bicycles his feet as he flies.

SPEAKER_02 47:32

Yeah, those are pretty good rolls. Just little tiny baby steps. Nine, nine, and five plus four is nine, so 27 hit points back. And then I'm gonna use my other two actions to like get over the back side of the building. Over to the back side of the building so that I have like complete cover concealment from them. I don't know how tall these buildings are, but with two movements of 30, I figure I can at least get to the back side of that.

SPEAKER_01 47:59

Okay. Oh, I didn't move my guy far enough.

SPEAKER_02 48:02

So right here, maybe at 20 feet is my guess.

SPEAKER_04 48:10

The last guy in this round, this mercenary, will fire his bow at Pops. Okay. Uh 32.

SPEAKER_03 48:21

Hit, no crit.

SPEAKER_04 48:23

Uh 20 points of piercing damage. Okay. Second. 28.

SPEAKER_03 48:32

That is a hit.

SPEAKER_04 48:34

19 points of piercing.

SPEAKER_03 48:36

Oof. Okay.

SPEAKER_04 48:38

Last arrow.

SPEAKER_06 48:38

It's better than 44. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 48:42

It's probably not gonna work. Uh 19.

SPEAKER_03 48:49

Okay, 19 damage.

SPEAKER_04 48:50

19 to hit.

SPEAKER_03 48:51

Oh no. Uh critical miss. No, I'm sorry, regular miss.

SPEAKER_06 48:54

I was like, these numbers aren't adding up either. Critical miss.

SPEAKER_04 48:57

We're also bad at math, except for Kyle. Who's bad at the adding and subtracting kind. Yeah, yeah. I'm good at the other kind. Uh so he fires three arrows, and then we are going to go to the beginning of round three. This lady steps forward. Ari, are you within 30 feet?

SPEAKER_06 49:15

Yeah, she's five feet to the west.

SPEAKER_03 49:17

Yeah, but you're 15 feet in the air.

SPEAKER_02 49:21

It's still probably within five or thirty feet.

SPEAKER_04 49:24

So I need twenty.

SPEAKER_01 49:27

Twenty-five, and then fifty. She'd be out of thirty feet. If she's 15 feet up and 25 feet away, she'd be out of 30 feet.

SPEAKER_02 49:33

Oh, she's not 25 feet away.

SPEAKER_06 49:34

I'm five feet over. That's just the end of the five. That's the end of the map.

SPEAKER_01 49:37

She's another five feet from the way. How about now? Ooh. Hang on.

SPEAKER_06 49:42

Yes, I'm I'm sure.

SPEAKER_01 49:43

1520 and 15. I'm gonna tell you. Let's get this Pythagorean theorem calculator out here. I thought you could do it.

unknown 49:51

No.

SPEAKER_06 49:52

With a calculator.

SPEAKER_01 49:54

Maybe like slowly. This is still pretty slow with the calculator. Only because you're distracting him, Jeff. Stop talking. Oh yeah, now she's 25 feet away.

SPEAKER_06 50:04

Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_04 50:10

Uh she lets out a three-action heal for 20 points.

SPEAKER_06 50:14

Sweet.

SPEAKER_04 50:16

What? It's not working? Thank you. How is that not working? Aren't they undead spirits?

SPEAKER_02 50:23

Not exactly undead. I mean, there's kind of a qualifier in that that makes it so that we still get healed.

SPEAKER_04 50:33

Uh just misunderstood. Know your secret. Uh, but you do notice that uh, of course, like any other three-action heal uh pops that affects you too. I don't know if you calculated it or not. Oh, I'm sorry, what was it?

SPEAKER_03 50:44

Um I got lost in my own hands.

SPEAKER_04 50:46

They start their own wounds begin to heal as well for 20 points of damage.

SPEAKER_01 50:51

Oh, that undoes my shove.

SPEAKER_05 50:54

Damn.

SPEAKER_03 50:56

This pride's still gonna be hurt.

SPEAKER_04 50:59

She will step up. The second shrine maiden. Give me a reflex A. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 51:09

Just get losy something.

SPEAKER_03 51:10

That's very intense. Ten on dice. Reflex 18 for uh 28.

SPEAKER_04 51:16

Uh basic pass. You will take uh seven points of bludgeoning damage as she throws this holy water at you. Okay. Nothing! Nothing's working as it should!

SPEAKER_03 51:34

I think you've got glass in my eye.

SPEAKER_04 51:38

Uh so the last one will step up and fire at Pops. Uh 27 to hit.

SPEAKER_03 51:47

Die.

SPEAKER_04 51:49

13 points of piercing damage. Okay. Second strike. Oh fuck. Uh 20 to hit.

SPEAKER_03 51:56

Miss.

SPEAKER_04 51:57

And then it is Pops' turn.

SPEAKER_03 51:59

Pops is going to reserve until after the mercenary enforcer.

SPEAKER_06 52:05

Hold.

SPEAKER_03 52:06

Yeah. Same difference.

SPEAKER_06 52:08

I like that plan. I was hoping you'd do that.

SPEAKER_04 52:14

Okay. Uh, two handed strike on Pops.

SPEAKER_03 52:18

Okay. Probably till aft after Ari's turn, actually.

SPEAKER_04 52:22

25 to hit.

SPEAKER_03 52:24

25 is a miss.

SPEAKER_04 52:25

Damn. Second. Uh well, 22.

SPEAKER_03 52:32

It's also a miss.

SPEAKER_01 52:33

Pops is like parrying his sword away as he's surveying the battlefield, but just like nonchalantly. Still giving his sermon. We will go to Ari's German.

SPEAKER_06 52:44

Okay, Ari is just gonna book it. Um she will go uh up and over the buildings. She's trying to get out of there.

SPEAKER_04 52:55

Okay. Pops, you can reinsert at any time, and then we will go to Violet.

SPEAKER_03 53:00

I'm oh um, I don't know. Do you think you need any help getting away, Kyle? No, I'm gonna be fine. Yeah, I'll reinsert and then I'll max move speed away.

SPEAKER_04 53:08

Uh he's gonna take an AOO on you.

SPEAKER_03 53:10

Sure.

SPEAKER_04 53:10

War uh not warding strike, warden's protection. They don't have basic AOs. That's me. Um, okay. Pops' turn. He books it out of there. Oh, does she have anything? Can she do AOs? No, they're pro no lightning touch. Uh, and you like you're gone-gone. Yeah super fast.

SPEAKER_06 53:38

Again.

unknown 53:39

Phew.

SPEAKER_03 53:40

Off like a shot. Oh, and I turn off my passion.

SPEAKER_06 53:44

Just a beacon in the sky.

SPEAKER_03 53:48

I put it away.

SPEAKER_06 53:49

Put your passion away.

SPEAKER_04 53:51

Why is uh player character Kyle or player targeting bombs? Oh, I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 53:58

That's probably me. Which button do I have on the wrong button?

SPEAKER_04 54:00

Uh, it is your turn.

SPEAKER_01 54:02

Um, so I'll just I'm hoping I'm up high enough to be over the buildings. Oh my gosh. I don't know how to use this. Uh whatever. I'm uh just head off the same direction that they're going for my full 75. How far away are you, Gardis?

SPEAKER_02 54:17

I it's what I re said when I was doing it, I was trying to get like sort of up and over on the other side of the roof so that nobody could to break line of sight and then start flying off like through the street in a different direction.

SPEAKER_04 54:31

I just wasn't sure if this is really where you were at or if you were farther off the map than this.

SPEAKER_02 54:34

No, I'm farther off the map than this. He's already to the other side of the building. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 54:41

You guys kind of just scatter in the wake of this fireball. All the while, blasts of light and arrows zipping past your head, and you guys converge on the grassy knoll to the west of town. Injured, bloody, out of breath. You see, there's a lot of commotion down there. People are like fanning out. You see more of these exorcists, or you can't really see anything from where you're at. It's dark at despite your uh night vision. You kind of just see the torches fanning out throughout Karahai. They're sweeping the town looking for you.

SPEAKER_01 55:25

Idiots. They think we're still in town. Sorry, I left too early, Ari. I thought you could run, and then you got pinned down by arrows, and I know that.

SPEAKER_06 55:33

Well, yeah, I spent all my time trying to make you fly, and then you just left me there in the open. I mean, I'll do better. I mean, it takes time for the magic to actually happen, and then all the while they're rushing at us and shooting at us. Like I almost died.

SPEAKER_01 55:49

It's a good thing Pops came back. Thank you, Pops.

SPEAKER_03 55:51

It is okay. Maybe we should have better plans.

SPEAKER_06 55:55

I don't know what came over me. I just fell on my face and they were there, and I was like, what do I do when I do? Obviously, fireball was the answer.

SPEAKER_02 56:04

I feel like that wasn't the plan to begin with, though.

SPEAKER_06 56:06

But well, like Pops just took off, and then it was crazy. I saw Violet start getting her frills out, and I was like, oh no.

SPEAKER_02 56:14

Yeah, I didn't understand much of that. That completely wasn't at all like we had talked about. I thought maybe I could draw them away.

SPEAKER_06 56:21

We were just gonna go around, and then that didn't even work.

SPEAKER_03 56:24

So I thought I could draw them away and maybe give you easy access.

SPEAKER_01 56:30

Well, that didn't work, obviously. Next time we make we make plan for invisible and sneak through walls and and all the stuff, and we go do hard investigation.

SPEAKER_06 56:41

And you can fly.

SPEAKER_01 56:42

And I can fly. Being ghosts is hard work.

SPEAKER_02 56:45

Yeah. Never had this much trouble in the mindscape. I mean I die.

SPEAKER_01 56:54

I die in mindscape.

SPEAKER_06 56:56

Maybe next time we can um well there I only have three invisibilities. I was thinking we could fly in invisible and then find a place to hunker down and we can just stay there. No.

SPEAKER_03 57:09

Okay. We might if if you guys can sneak in, then maybe I can sneak by without invisibility.

SPEAKER_04 57:17

Maybe we are focusing too much on like not being seen and trying to be covert. You guys have been seen multiple times at this point. Like, you know, like again, you can keep trying to to go about it this way. I'm not saying don't do that, but uh I I feel like you guys are attempting this you guys are talking about the same plan now, like for the fourth or fifth time. Yeah. Um, and if you want to keep doing it, that's great. I'm ready for it, but um, I guess I'm trying to advocate for our listeners, they're probably ready to listen to something else.

SPEAKER_02 57:45

I I was gonna say, like, I agree that we've been seen at this point. There's no reason for us to really be that sneaky, but so I don't know, we either just walk, I don't know what to do because with that information, like if we just walk up to one of the gates and be like, you know.

SPEAKER_06 58:04

Because we can't get very far because they're so powerful.

SPEAKER_04 58:07

Like we You also don't have to take them on six at a time, you know.

SPEAKER_06 58:12

I understand that you keep bringing that up.

SPEAKER_02 58:13

Yeah, but I don't what I don't know what the option is. The other option is where do we get four of them? Or two, yeah, maybe one.

SPEAKER_01 58:21

Just one. Uh we should try to make friends with Rysho. I bet Rysho can help.

SPEAKER_02 58:28

I don't think so. Not at this point.

SPEAKER_01 58:30

Why don't you make him a cake?

SPEAKER_02 58:32

He doesn't like cake. Birdseed. Worm cake. Worm birdseed cake. I would need an oven, and apparently I'm not allowed to light any fires. Hmm.

SPEAKER_03 58:41

We can light a fire, just not at our place of ref are you talking about burning down the town?

SPEAKER_02 58:48

Because Violet can't stop talking about that.

SPEAKER_01 58:50

Yeah, it's burn down town. Burn it down. Whole thing. Tails wagon.

SPEAKER_02 58:58

Which is really dangerous. And noisy. Or I don't really have.

SPEAKER_04 59:09

See, you can still sneak in. I'm not saying you can't do that. I'm just saying that, like, I'm just saying that they have seen you now. Uh, you left survivors, so they're reporting back, sort of thing. Um, you know, you know they're sharing information just like you guys are now. Um, you know that they are fanning out looking for you guys through the village. You know that they're likely not going to find anything. Again, I'm I'm I'm sorry if I completely stomped it down. You guys can absolutely keep trying to be stealthy, and you should. You should try to be stealthy so that you don't bring the entire fortress down on you at once. Uh, but uh, you know, maybe not uh you know, maybe not just for reconnaissance because that's what that was, and you engage them. So we were looking for the execution was a little wasn't there.

SPEAKER_03 59:51

We were looking for a way in.

SPEAKER_06 59:53

Yeah, natural one's a natural one.

SPEAKER_04 59:54

The natural one's a natural one, that's also true.

SPEAKER_06 59:57

But yeah, we have to play in.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:00

No one really yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:01

We are we're looking for a way in. Uh what about okay. My thought is the place that we burned the other time, maybe it burned a hole in the wall. I don't know.

SPEAKER_06 1:00:16

That's I doubt it.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:17

To what end? Oh, oh, I think. To get inside to get inside the fortress.

SPEAKER_06 1:00:21

Yeah, but they wouldn't know about it too. Um just assuming all the gates are closed?

SPEAKER_03 1:00:26

No, we know that the west gate is open. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 1:00:28

Again, that's why we were and we looked at the east.

SPEAKER_03 1:00:31

Right, we were trying to go to the gate and see what the never got that far. But they came out as a natural one. They came out, I thought I could lead them away.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:40

After that counter, you guys lose a terror point. No. But as the night progresses, they report back about their sh awful, terrible walk back from the graveyard, and you guys gain a terror point. Breaking even. Okay, cool.

SPEAKER_06 1:00:56

And then for Osma lifts are cursed because they put the bones back for us.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:00

That's exactly how that works.

SPEAKER_04 1:01:02

Streets is our curse, everyone gains a doomed condition.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:04

If you have the penalties, guys, I'm just not going out anymore. Like I said before, it's worse now.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:10

Yeah, just let Willow Shore go. Pops is not allowed to make decisions for the group anymore.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:14

I'll stay here with Raisho forever.

SPEAKER_04 1:01:17

At least a month, right?

SPEAKER_03 1:01:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:01:18

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:20

Shit.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:22

Raisho moves out.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:24

So this is I'm just trying to think of ways to even sneak in. And again, all I can think of is just going through kind of where we burned out. That was still towards the east gate.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:33

We could try to lure people out and try to pick them off as they come out.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:39

That's kind of what sort of happened. No, and they came out in groups of six.

SPEAKER_01 1:01:43

We should have done the fight at the graveyard. There's only three of them.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:47

Well, there was other civilians. Those are civilians, though. They would have just run off.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:51

And they have that the incense really is worrisome to me. Yeah. If we can't even be close to it.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:59

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:00

Yeah. Um, I guess it is it just sickens us, but that we know of so far. Um, but I don't know if we could do something like illusions or whatnot um to scare them or try to to lure some away from a gate for us to get through. Yeah, I'm just worried that um with the western gate, it's also often civilians, right, coming in and out.

SPEAKER_04 1:02:28

I mean, at nighttime there's almost no one coming in and out.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:30

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:30

Okay, what about this? We start forest fire, and then if a couple come out, we fight those two.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:36

Yeah, that's actually let's burn down Raisho's house.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:40

Do you remember the trees that the tree that talked to us at the Kappa village? Yes. He's upset that we were taking more than we needed. I don't think he'd be happy if he learned that we're just burning down trees.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:52

You can't be cursed by the trees, dude.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:53

For no reason.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:54

That was in the mindscape. It's not real.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:57

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:58

There always be tar on your hands.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:01

I'm tarred and I'm doomed.

SPEAKER_00 1:03:07

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:08

So yeah, I guess I don't know what to do. We could go back home though. We can go back to Willishore. Yes, right. We failed, guys. Go back to Ray Shows. Just go to the boneyard.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:18

Go back to Ray Show's house. Uh they're they're gonna have even more protections in the morning, though. Um right now they're out looking for us. We don't have any flight. There's gonna be even more protections in the morning. So if we wait another day, we could like there's a possibility of us healing up now and trying to get in, but that's a big question mark, too, because we'd have to be fighting through patrols. We're also giving up our best escape plan, which is flight.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:47

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:47

Yeah. Well, and then we've already stirred up the Hornets' nest. So if anyone was asleep, now everybody's awake.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:54

Yeah. They're gonna be awake for days now, though. What they know we're attacking every night. Yeah, we've not been attacking every night. Yeah. I don't know. And where are we, day five? Something around there. I was trying to keep track of it, but I then I lost track. I don't know. We're on like day four or five, something like that. I think we should I think we should retreat. Okay. So back to Haunt Reshow.

SPEAKER_06 1:04:25

Well, he might have some information too, because he's been sneaking around inside of the walls.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:32

Just maybe try not to piss him off this time, Garden.

SPEAKER_02 1:04:36

I don't even want to understand what I did.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:39

That's usually how it goes. What are you looking at, guys? Looking at my screen with under my eyes.

SPEAKER_04 1:04:56

Time goes by. Everyone can give me a will favor.

SPEAKER_01 1:05:04

Thirty-two.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:09

Twenty-two.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:14

Do I have my reaction? I'm sorry. Twenty-one twenty-three.

SPEAKER_06 1:05:22

Twenty-seven.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:24

Thirty-seven.

SPEAKER_04 1:05:29

Only one person has which was an artist. Uh you can reduce your doomed value with a long rest of you. Who wants to give me a pretty hard flat check?

SPEAKER_01 1:05:52

Seventeen.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:53

That's a pretty good flat check.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:55

You also might want to take your mouth closer to your microphone. Seventeen?

SPEAKER_04 1:06:00

Pass. But that's not what you wanted for this one. Oh no. Because Will sure faces unexpected trouble. You guys lose four hope points. Oh yeah, that hurts.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:17

We have like a hundred of them, right?

SPEAKER_02 1:06:19

To begin with. We're down to three now.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:22

That's what I got to.

SPEAKER_04 1:06:23

You guys lose three food points.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:25

Oh no. And you guys lose one security. Do we feel this like rippling in the forest? Are we having a bad kenobi right now? Um any of those at zero yet?

SPEAKER_02 1:06:38

No.

SPEAKER_06 1:06:38

No, not quite.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:40

Hope is close.

SPEAKER_06 1:06:42

Everything's not.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:43

Oh, they're all close, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:06:47

The amount of preparation points you have at the end of the adventure determines your success for this adventure. At least for this book. You guys have spent roughly a week in the real world trying to find your flame for the Eternal Lantern. Trying to breach the Karahai Fortress by only investigating the outside of it. You guys know that it is time to go. It is time to figure this out. Maybe Rysho does have the answers. Maybe it is taking on six of these guys at once. Maybe it is sneaking through, being undetected, and going room to room to find this warding bell that you've been looking for. You're not sure what the answers are, but you know it is time to do something with Fate to Black. Time to fate the black.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:17

Every time I put my hand up and like do anything like this, I'm definitely getting lots of chlorine.

SPEAKER_03 1:08:22

Hopefully because of an involvement with a pool.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:25

Yeah, we went swimming. That's why we couldn't start today until later. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Is chlorine. I don't take showers. I just use all your clothes. Yeah, I just douse myself in chlorine.

SPEAKER_04 1:08:42

Setup it looks like, and we're going.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:44

Yeah. It's alright. We are going. Six minutes.

SPEAKER_04 1:08:50

I'm watching the two for you. We're in it together.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:53

We're in it together.

SPEAKER_04 1:08:54

Are we good for that weekend though?

SPEAKER_01 1:08:57

You were worried about having a competition or something?

SPEAKER_02 1:08:59

Uh yeah, they just don't have one in July at the end of July. Okay.

SPEAKER_04 1:09:02

Yeah. I am sorry about your buzz route charges that you're gonna receive for this last month because we went over by like an hour and a half.

SPEAKER_01 1:09:08

Uh oh. How much do I get charged every time it goes over?

SPEAKER_04 1:09:11

I don't know. It's a whole new plan, it's a whole different system.

SPEAKER_01 1:09:14

Oh, okay. Cool.

SPEAKER_04 1:09:15

Um mine was like 20 extra dollars the last time we went over.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:18

That's not terrible. No.

SPEAKER_06 1:09:20

It's a month though, that's annoying. Right? What? Is it per month?

SPEAKER_04 1:09:25

No, it's just like it was 20 extra dollars on top of the monthly charge.

SPEAKER_06 1:09:28

Yeah. So it's like you can get yeah, anyways.

SPEAKER_04 1:09:31

Um, but like the reason why we went over is because Bud Sprout was like three episodes behind. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 1:09:38

That's bullshit.

SPEAKER_04 1:09:40

Well, and I the the reason why we were behind was because it's a Bud Sprout issue.

SPEAKER_01 1:09:44

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 1:09:44

That's why I said it's bullshit. It's their fault.

SPEAKER_01 1:09:48

All right. Um Jeff, can you hit me with the sound check? Uh huh. Life?

SPEAKER_03 1:09:56

Peanut pecan pie.

SPEAKER_01 1:09:59

That worked. Yeah, who knew? Who would have thought?

SPEAKER_00 1:10:04

Who would have thought?

SPEAKER_01 1:10:06

Who would have thought? I don't think I'd want a peanut pecan pie. Don't knock until you try it. I feel like you could do it. What would be wrong with like peanut butter or pecan pie? Yeah. Peanut butter crust. You can make it cream. Peanut butter crust? Yeah. With chocolate. Sure.

SPEAKER_06 1:10:24

You know what's really good? Pumpkin cheesecake.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:26

Oh yeah. Friendship.

SPEAKER_01 1:10:28

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_06 1:10:29

And the pumpkin cheesecake is better. Life gets it.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:33

Chocolate pecan pie is also good. Pecan is my favorite type of pie.

SPEAKER_06 1:10:37

Chocolate. Is it peanut pecan?

SPEAKER_01 1:10:40

Sure. Reese's. What's my favorite kind of pie? My uh youngest, he eats, or not my youngest, my oldest is allergic to apples, and now he tolerates it better as he's getting older. But when he was younger, if you gave him an apple, he'd be pooping for like a day.

SPEAKER_04 1:10:55

When he hears about this, he's gonna be so mad at you. No, he's not.

SPEAKER_01 1:10:59

He's gonna think it's hilarious. Um so we he couldn't eat apple pie, which is my thing my favorite pie, even though it's super basic, I still love it. And so we started making uh pear raspberry pie, and it's pretty much the shit.

SPEAKER_04 1:11:13

Um I really like chocolate pie, just like chocolate pudding and chocolate pie sort of thing. Um, and one year, um I think my mom made it, maybe my grandma, I don't remember. Um, not that anyone makes it really more special than the other, right? Like it's super, super basic. And uh my brother and I essentially just split it over the course of like going back for like seconds and stuff like that. And my little brother didn't get any and ended up crying. And ever since then, the family always has two. Yep, and now we always have two at Thanksgiving. That was the year that Orn and I ruined Thanksgiving. Sorry, Tyler.

SPEAKER_03 1:11:47

I like a lemon meringue myself.

SPEAKER_06 1:11:49

He's never gotten over it.

SPEAKER_03 1:11:51

He hates me. He still cries at the sight of chocolate pie.

SPEAKER_01 1:11:55

Just the sign of it.

SPEAKER_06 1:11:57

I think pecan pie is probably my favorite. If it's done right, my mom makes a really good pecan pie. I do not like pecan pies. I'm not a huge pie person, though. I'd rather have like regular cake or like a cheesecake or something like that.

SPEAKER_02 1:12:11

I I agree. I I like pies better than cakes.

SPEAKER_06 1:12:14

Never been a pie person. Yeah, either I'd rather have a cobbler.

SPEAKER_02 1:12:16

Cheesecake is my favorite cherry, like the traditionals like cherry pie, apple pie, peach pie. I'm not a huge fan of either.

SPEAKER_00 1:12:26

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 1:12:27

Yeah, I actually, now that we're branching out a little bit, blackberry crisp is my favorite dessert. Yeah, crisps and cobblers. Oh man, like strawberry rhubarb.

SPEAKER_04 1:12:34

Yes. Do you remember that chocolate swirl cheesecake I made?

SPEAKER_06 1:12:37

Yes. It was really good. So good. It was so good. Those are good. It was ugly though. It was delicious. Fucked it up. He was so upset because it cracked, and like he's just like, oh, it's ruined, and I like ate pretty much the whole thing.

SPEAKER_03 1:12:49

I took quite a bit. I just couldn't. This is terrible. I'll take care of this. Don't worry about it.

SPEAKER_06 1:12:55

Let me help you.

SPEAKER_03 1:12:56

I'm just gonna take this to my room.

SPEAKER_06 1:12:58

It was so good. Thank you. Yeah, you can do that again anytime.

SPEAKER_04 1:13:03

Okay, I'll make a cheesecake this week. Cool. For dinner.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:07

Save some for savory cheesecake. Just put an egg on top. Like put an egg on top, everybody'll think it's a little bit more.

SPEAKER_04 1:13:15

Yeah. I think we're talking about a quiche now, but that's fine. Quiche is good. My new favorite kind of pie, quiche.

SPEAKER_01 1:13:23

Quiche pie. I mean, you wouldn't you it is. You know. You could make the argument. I think if you put enough salt in it, I would like that. Quiches never taste like anything.

SPEAKER_06 1:13:35

You are making it wrong.

SPEAKER_01 1:13:36

Yeah, they're always every quiche I've ever had, super bland.

SPEAKER_06 1:13:39

Okay, we'll have to make a really good quiche sometime.

SPEAKER_04 1:13:41

Yeah, someone's been fucking up your quiches.

SPEAKER_06 1:13:42

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:43

It's true. I hated quiche for many years, and I think it's probably because we had the same experience. Because we grew up together, and every quiche we had as a child was gross.

SPEAKER_06 1:13:51

You can put seasonings in it. White boy cooking.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:54

Yeah. Yeah, you're not wrong. Then I lived with a guy who actually could bake and he made quiche, and it was sick. So good.

SPEAKER_04 1:14:02

I was gonna do the intro banter, but we're like 90 seconds out.

SPEAKER_03 1:14:06

Yeah. If that. Should I start the timer?

SPEAKER_04 1:14:08

Yeah, let's don't start the time. Yeah, let's just pause. Let's just pause. That was our outro banter.

SPEAKER_03 1:14:13

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:14:14

Unpaused.
