Starting point is 00:00:00 I mean, now that you've said that... What if we could just look? Yeah, very, very good to meet you, Wem. We came here for a reason. So many chariot chases. We don't have the power to try again. Yeah, can I carry it? Maybe we don't take anything, or maybe we do.
Starting point is 00:00:15 Sorry, I'm very new to this. They've got a whole mountainside to play with. Oh my god! Get on that wall! I don't really want to go back there. Hurry up! It's almost ready! I also feel really good about doing that. Well, hold on! If we're looking for a place to lie low,
Starting point is 00:00:28 I got a little old place that we could take. that we could check out. What? You have a house? Um, sort of. Sort of. Let's pick the stuff up and, uh, and follow me. MVP this week. MVP this week is V.
Starting point is 00:00:55 April nominated Vee, saying that V recently went on a long road trip. and binged over 40 episodes of season one and that they're super excited for them to catch up. Us too! April goes on to say that V is an awesome, generous, kind-hearted guy and a great part of the Discord server. I agree. We can feel the love from here.
Starting point is 00:01:14 Thanks for the nomination, and thanks for listening, V. You're this week's MVP. If you'd like to hear your name or a friend's featured as MVP at the top of the show, go ahead and join our Discord. The submission form is there along with over 3,000 new best. friends just waiting to say hi. All right, shall we do this? Yeah, let's play some D&D.
Starting point is 00:01:34 All right. Having just performed the ritual to release the souls of the Knights of the Eternal Order into the afterlife, Uri emerge into the dragon's lair. Wait, wait, where's whim? Red turns around looking for whim. Wim. Wim is sitting on the trapped steps. that lead up to the dragon's throne? Flirting with danger.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Hey, Red walks over. Look, Wim, we came here for a reason, and we've done that reason, and he kind of points over his shoulder. We burned a lot of souls that I believe, what we believe, the dragon was keeping as a horde. If you want a skeddattle,
Starting point is 00:02:23 now would be a good time, and you'd be more than welcome to join us. Wim makes kind of like a like pulling at her collar uncomfortable and then just nods at you come on
Starting point is 00:02:37 we could use another friend on the road I think we're going to be heading back to water deep or something I don't know red kind of emptily looks towards Jack I think that's our next stop yeah maybe we can make a teleportation circle
Starting point is 00:02:50 before we even leave here near the entrance that's how it works right yeah I I want to get a little bit of distance between here and this dragon's... But here's my concern. If we leave, there could be someone waiting for us. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:05 Okay, so weigh that against it, there being some kind of magical defense against teleportation, guards, wards, kinds of things that a dragon might have with their infinite amount of time and energy and magical power to stop people from teleporting in and stealing their horde, and then we don't have the power to try again.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Well, teleporting out, though, That's totally different than teleporting in. I feel nervous about risking it. I'm not going to lie. All right, fine. Everyone excited to leave? Skedaddle. Doran sort of walks towards Wim, and he's like,
Starting point is 00:03:38 well, it was really, uh, very, very good to meet you, Wim. Well, goodbye then. She gives you a thumbs up, and then she just starts walking along with the party. I don't think she's going anywhere, Dorn. So the five of you leave the repository of souls. having ostensibly freed the knights of the Eternal Order into their final rest.
Starting point is 00:04:04 On the way out, Red's hanging back with Wim, and doesn't it seem weird that there's nothing else besides a few spared gold coins and some souls? That's not much of a dragon hoard. I mean, now that you've said that, that automatically means that we'll turn this corner and there will be a dragon waiting for us. It's not necessarily unheard of for dragons to have multiple caverns and hideouts and caches and places. They've got a whole mountainside to play with. Doran, I'm going to bet two gold pieces that we turn the corner of there's a dragon waiting there for us, all right? Whim, do you know of any other places in here that the dragon would have kept gold or anything else around here that maybe seemed suspect? Wim narrows her eyes at you, Red.
Starting point is 00:04:51 Red narrows them back. And then she reaches a hand into her cloak, and she pulls out the immovable rod. Did you find that in the dragon's hoard? And she kind of shrugs, like, yeah. Well, take us to where you found it. And then she narrows her eyes at the four of you again. Please. Then she walks very purposefully.
Starting point is 00:05:12 You remember how we found her in like a cage? Yeah. Mm-hmm. Are we sure we want to like mess with fire? We could get out right now. Yeah, but. And we've done the thing. Kind of with you there, Jack.
Starting point is 00:05:24 But think about this. Remember when you lost your memory and touched that door a whole bunch of times and kept hurting yourself and ate that mushroom? Sure. And Red Follow's whim. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:05:37 That's me normally. She leads the way very purposefully back to the entry room, which was full of just stray pieces of gold and that skeleton and that fire. place. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:53 Right. It's my favorite place. Well, the gold had been swept to the sides, like something big came through the middle. It's the place where Mari and Red sat down and had a little chat about death and things. Oh, I remember this room. Wim stands there in the center of the room, and she signs at you like, okay, but we're going to have to get out of here. Oh, oh.
Starting point is 00:06:19 Hmm. Oh. she mimes like dine and dash like eat a food and then like run away yeah yeah that's fine hey look whim's gonna point us to the horde and then we just got to get the fuck out of here quick right she looks around at all of you and points her finger at you like you good you good you good you good you good you should i wanted that teleportation circle first eh jack remember 50 years ago how they destroyed half your village uh yeah dorin's the one probably looking the most uh unsure about this What do we want to go doing with the Dragon's Horde?
Starting point is 00:06:53 We came down here, Red, to release souls not to go looking for a dragon's stash of gold. Look, look. Okay, hold on. You're right. Let's just... So dangerous. Whim. Is there any harm if we just look?
Starting point is 00:07:10 She kind of shrugs. Okay, okay. So what if we just look first? Why don't you just look? I'm more comfortable. Leaving the dragon's den, personally. Ork Splitter's like, yeah! You're not afraid of anything!
Starting point is 00:07:24 Well, if we could just look, we could know what kind of treasure is here, you know. See, Jack, it's it. For posterity's sake. Look, I'm with you, Doran. I don't want to disturb any of the dragon's hoard. That's sure death. However, we're already on our way out. Jack, how long does it take you to do your teleportation circle?
Starting point is 00:07:44 One minute. Okay, okay. Let me just ask you this for a second. And Red Lake walks in a circle and, like, clears some gold. What if you did it right here, okay? And then Wim showed us to the hoard, and maybe we don't take anything, or maybe we do, how long would it take to use the teleportation circle to skedaddle from here? Well, like five seconds.
Starting point is 00:08:05 It lasts for, you know, five, six seconds once I'm done. So you really got to be ready to leap when I'm casting it. Right. So there isn't a lot of room for error here. Right, but we're good at that. That's kind of fun. I like the idea of Jack casting it and being like, you guys have 60 seconds to get in and now.
Starting point is 00:08:25 And then you're like getting the... You better be here in exactly 60 seconds. I'm going to count. You know what I mean? It's like that old fable gone in 60 seconds. With Nikailas Kaj. So many chariot chases. Here's what we can do.
Starting point is 00:08:39 There's a flat spot over here. I need about 10 feet. Kieran, why don't you go hang out with Mari and think numbers? and count down until the spell is complete, so they've got a countdown. I can do that. But we've got to be quick, because if we come out of there,
Starting point is 00:08:56 that dragon's going to be coming after us, fast and furious. Hey, hey, don't worry, Jack. I'm going to look for you too. Don't worry. If, if we touch anything, obviously. If, major if. All right, okay. We got time.
Starting point is 00:09:09 Uh, whim, where's the hold? Whim walks over to the fireplace. There are three raised steps that lead up to this fireplace, if you recall. And above the fireplace is inscribed Kalimvor's charge. Additionally, there's a skeleton lying on this hearth. Wim walks over the skeleton and she kicks it into the fire. And as the bones begin to burn and char, the fire dischar. the fire dissolves away from the fireplace and leaves an entryway into the room beyond.
Starting point is 00:09:53 I said that. I totally said that. He did. See? Well, and Red enters the room. How are we looking on time, Kieran? Kieran begins to count at Mari. Oh, we got... Mari? Fifty-nine, 58 seconds, 57, 57.
Starting point is 00:10:12 Jack has got his staff out, and he's. feeling the magic sort of pulse up and down through it into the spellguard sphere bit at the top where it sort of rains down from there casting this circle on the ground where little it's almost like filling in pixel by pixel this diagram of the teleportation circle starts to grow on the ground in front of us almost fractal-like as it gets bigger and bigger and more solid and more real and red stands in the doorway and looks back dorin you coming in marie no anyone oh i'll come with But I'm, and she's still got Kieran counting down, but we'll have to run at some point. Come on, Wim.
Starting point is 00:10:50 And Red enters the room. Doran still looks uneasy about it, but he's there to support his friends. You enter in through this secret doorway into a room that is clearly a dragon's horde. Most notably, you see three huge eggs. Oh, we got eggs in here. Oh, boy. Along the side, you see two complete sets of armor, a chain shirt, some grieves and gauntlets. You see wands.
Starting point is 00:11:26 You see weapons, barrels, there are chests full of treasure, an array of just, it's a treasure trove. There is a bag off to the side. a mirror leans against the wall. There is a boat full of coins. How do you want to deal with this? Do you want to individually look at... So we've got 60 seconds in-game, but out of game,
Starting point is 00:11:55 we can chat and chat about what this stuff looks like because looking and perceiving a room happens instantaneously. Red casts detect magic. Are you serious? Why not? I mean... The gold wouldn't be magical, but there would be a lot of mundane stuff too.
Starting point is 00:12:10 I mean, there's a lot of magic. in this room, I would say more than half. Yeah, but I want to make sure we're grabbing the half that's magic. Cool, yeah. Okay, so we can immediately exclude the magic things from the non-magic things. Some of the magic things are strange. There's a tablecloth, magic.
Starting point is 00:12:27 The mirror's magical. I want that tablecloth. I do too. What do we, what do we, do we just, red turns to the others. Everything in heroes magic, guys. What do we do? Do we just take it all?
Starting point is 00:12:36 Do we take a few things? We got 60 seconds. There's a chest full of gold, None of the gold's magic. The chest is. There's a cart that's magical. All those wands. I want those wands.
Starting point is 00:12:47 All the armor is magic. Red runs over to a set of armor. Okay. So let me tell you about the armor that you're looking at. There is a dark and mysterious. We all die. There's a dark and mysterious suit of magical studded armor. There is a set of dwarven grieves and gauntlets, though there's no match.
Starting point is 00:13:12 halm or chest plate. There is an elven chain shirt, finely wrought, a dark leather suit of armor with a metallic blue-green sheen. So there's four sets. Yeah. Listen, if we steal from this dragon,
Starting point is 00:13:29 we all got to grab something at the same time. We could fill this card with shit, but that's not going to give us much time. We've got to time this thing out, Red says. How many seconds, Maury? You guys have 38. I'm going to grab this chest. Can you carry that?
Starting point is 00:13:43 Yeah, can I carry it? Can you carry it fast? Grab those four sets of armor. Any books? Just jack in the distance. What? Yeah, you see three wands close at hand. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:55 That's just Kieran's eyes lighting up. Kieran tells you there's a drift globe. Kieran knows what that is. If you want it, little guy, I'll get it. I want that tablecloth. I don't know why. It's not even useful. Bindle stuff up in it and go.
Starting point is 00:14:09 Mari stands in front of the tablecloth, and, yanks it from the table. It stays aloft. And she grabs the wands. That means it's go! And red, as he sees Mari pull it, we're supposed to do it at the same time, Marie! Sorry, sorry, I'm very new to this.
Starting point is 00:14:27 She reaches out and he grabs the set of armor in front of him, and he starts shoving it frantically into the bag of holding. In the 30 seconds that Kieran is frantically screaming into your brain subconsciously, the three of you managed to grab. all four sets of armor, the magical tablecloth, a mirror, a drift globe, three wands, a magical bag, a magical chest, and you load it all up onto the cart. As you push it through the fireplace, you see Jack in the middle of the room. The symbols are whirling on the ground.
Starting point is 00:15:08 They're starting to lock in place and glow red. The world underneath this circle is starting to look like something else, a space between worlds. This thing is imminently locking into place. Jack, is it ready? Hurry up! It's almost ready! Doran's like, grabs his end of the wheelbarrel, and he's shuffling it forward. Come on, we got to go.
Starting point is 00:15:28 We got to go. Come on. Here we go. She's just running. I'm slipping. Mari, grab that side. Doran, as you push the cart into the teleportation circle, the drift globe rolls off and away. I got it.
Starting point is 00:15:41 Red. One, five. Red turns around and scrambles. Four. Red, leave it. Dives towards the drift globe. Three. Whim reaches our hand out towards you, Red.
Starting point is 00:15:49 Two. Red grabs it. Whim. Thank you. One. And the five of you disappear. Now! And as the five of you disappear from this room full of gold, the walls begin to tremble from a deep subterranean roar.
Starting point is 00:16:10 A novice wizard, who you've never met before, is on duty when the five of you crash into the teleportation circle in the city of the dead, dragging a wagon full of dragon's treasure. We made it. Excuse me. Are we? Does your mouth normally have this metallic taste afterwards? Is that normal? It's, I mean, it's never pleasant. Your mouth is bleeding, Mari. Oh my god
Starting point is 00:16:40 I'm sorry Do you have permission To use the Harper's Circle? Who are you? We're Reds motherfucking rovers I always sing that
Starting point is 00:16:55 Sorry I'll need you to sign The logbook here Of course Yeah let's get us Give us a minute To get sorted And take an inventory
Starting point is 00:17:03 Oh and your foot's in my ass Logbook I think a little bit of my hair Got left behind It definitely did You just got like a cool mullet How are we gonna get this This wag?
Starting point is 00:17:13 Oh, Wham came Oh, hi, oh, you made it Red throws his arms around her and hugs her deeply Aw, she hugs you back You saved my life, Wim She grabs the spot where your ears used to be And kisses you on the forehead Oh, thank you
Starting point is 00:17:28 And then she looks at this treasure And she starts like kind of poking at it I guess she's not the dragon then Yeah Or she's playing the long con Let's get the hell out of here Where do you go? Should we take it back to the copper cup or um
Starting point is 00:17:42 Well I Yeah We should maybe find a way to To put it somewhere I mean We got lots of bags of holding in portable holes and stuff But I just Are we in water deep right now?
Starting point is 00:17:58 Yeah we just got to climb out of this crypt And go across the graveyard Oh my God Hold on if we're looking for a place to lie low I got a little old place that we could check out What? You have a house? Um, sort of.
Starting point is 00:18:10 Sort of. You live somewhere other than Mastika? Yeah. Let's pick this stuff up and, uh, and follow me. Yeah. All right. You stand before a three-story tall, dark and abandoned looking in, maybe? Here it is.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Tadda! I mean, you were right. It's certainly sort of a house. Yeah. It's wonderful, too. Come on in. And Red walks up and his foot goes through the porch. That happens.
Starting point is 00:18:40 That's just a feature. Just step around that. Come on in. And like he opens the front door and ducks under the large board that's like partitioning the front door. And on it you can see the like well-worn letters that were once painted. Condemned. Come on in. Just avoid the sign.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Dooring clears it without even noticing it there. Interesting. Interesting. Jack absolutely bangs his head on it. Oh. You've got the cart parked on the front porch, I presume, so you all carry handfuls of... Yeah, yeah, anywhere in here, Red, like, enters, and we're standing in essentially, like, a bar area with, like, small tables stacked up on each other, and their chairs turned up. And on the far end, there's, like, a wraparound bar, stairs that head up and stairs that head down to a cellar.
Starting point is 00:19:28 He's like, this is, this is it. Just grab a table here, and Red, like, pulls a table off, blows the dust off. win looks around and she holds her hands out like what is this place your guess is as good as mine waterdap real estate is really something these days yeah marie grabs the tablecloth and she slides it over the table that red has pulled over to like put it give a place to like start looking through these things like with a little bit of ceremony it appears mundane while draped over a table but when she pulls it off again it still hangs in the air she flops to the ground yes oh all right now Not a flying carpet. All right. Oh, well, this is the tap room, Redd-like looks around. Just don't worry about all the broken furniture and the wood on the floor, although splinters are prevalent. There's rooms upstairs, plenty to sleep in, and you're welcome to call any, but the room on the end is mine.
Starting point is 00:20:24 And, yeah, me casso-sou-casa. You know, to be fair, the house we stayed in a couple of nights ago, not worse than this. No, this is This has a roof, we're doing better What do you mean to be fair? What does it mean to be fair? I'm just not sure it screams long rest to me Get a load of this guy, Red says to Wim
Starting point is 00:20:45 Like pointing at Jack Whim like kind of gestures like Yeah, I don't know And then she She walks into the back And just kind of disappears exploring the place Oh be careful Lifts back there
Starting point is 00:20:58 Yeah, you hear it crash And then nothing Me-casa-sucasa, is that Mastikin? No, Spanish. Weird. I don't know what that is either. And as we're standing there, you see like a glass on the bar just like slide. Oh, that's Liff.
Starting point is 00:21:19 Just ignore him. He hangs out down here. Oh. Anyway, let's dive into this treasure, Redd says, rubbing his hands together. Yeah. So what did you guys find? What are you most excited about? Well, there's four suits of armor.
Starting point is 00:21:32 here and red lays them all out on a set of tables. To be clear, there are two complete sets of armor. There is one set of dwarven grieves and gauntlets and there is one chain shirt. The first set of leather armor is certainly magical. It is dark leather armor with a metallic blue-green sheen in this light appears almost iridescent. Extraordinarily light and flexible, it features a bodice and paldrons connected by fine leather and adorned with shiny green black feathers
Starting point is 00:22:15 down the flanks and across the shoulders. This looks fancy. Interesting. Wow. Red holds it up and sort of holds it in front of Murray. Seems like your style, Mari. It's blue. Blue and green. Definitely colors I like. I think they go well with my complexion, and she takes it and runs her hands across the leather
Starting point is 00:22:38 and trying to sort of feel it out, and she slips on this leather armor. This is called Starling leather armor. It is medium armor that confers an AC of 12 plus your decks modifier, plus your constitution modifier. Ooh, that helps me a lot. and enables you to have two different feats while you're wearing it. Holy fuck. The first called Starling Splendor gives you a plus two bonus to performance checks while wearing the armor.
Starting point is 00:23:10 The second is called murmuration once per short rest when the wearer is subjected to an effect that requires a successful dexterity save to take half damage. On a successful save, you can use your reaction to take no damage instead. Oh, fuck. How damn. Very fun. Jack, your eyes fall upon this chain shirt. It is an item that you are familiar with.
Starting point is 00:23:37 This is called the Seth Galae Elvin shirt. It is the only piece of armor that can be worn by a wizard. How damn. As it is an elven chain shirt. So finally wrought that it confers protection without hindering those who would be otherwise encumbered while casting spells. Its silver links are so small and light that the chain shirt can be worn underneath normal traveling clothes without being detected. This elven chain armor gives you an AC of 13 plus 1 plus your decks modifier to a maximum of 2. Basically, saving you a
Starting point is 00:24:16 spell slot every day. Hot damn. You no longer need to cast mage armor. Wow. Doran, obviously, we have a set of grieves and gauntlets. Again, this is somewhat well known to you. Hmm. It's part of the flame reaver set. The other pieces are lost to time. Its helm and chestplate, scattered to the four winds of Feroon, maybe somewhere else on your journey, you will find them.
Starting point is 00:24:45 However, while wearing the grieves and gauntlets, you add plus one to your AC for each piece. Wow. These ancient dwarven grieves and gauntlets belong to a set of armor called the armor of the flame a reever. Wearing the grieves and gauntlets confers resistance to fire damage. And red, these are pajamas. They make you really comfy and sleeping. Is there anything in that bag for me? Red, you hold in your hands a dark, mysterious-looking suit of magical,
Starting point is 00:25:23 studded leather armor made of interlocking plates of some shadowy black material. Stutted leather armor? I always wanted this. That's your favorite. The helm of the armor is a faceless hood. And when you raise it, it will obscure your face in mysterious darkness. Ooh. Waring this armor gives you 12 plus 3 plus your dex modifier. Should give you a 19, I believe. Oh, wow. Yeah. It gives you a couple of properties here. The shifting property grants you advantage on stealth checks. Once per short rest, you are able to perform something called shadow melding. While in dim light or darkness, the wearer can as an action gain the benefits of the invisibility spell.
Starting point is 00:26:10 Shadow step once per short rest. As a bonus action, the wearer can exploit the shadows to teleport up to 60 feet to an unoccupied space that you can see as long as that is also. in darkness or dim light. Oh. And you have something called a veil of shadows. The armor provides resistance to necrotic damage. So everyone's got some new, exciting armor. The umbral veil.
Starting point is 00:26:37 To go with your umberhawk. And by the way, as you say that, you can hear on the, like, shifting above the floorboards, shale, just like, gnawing at some furniture. Shale. What is that? Oh, don't worry, you'll find out. Over the course of the next couple of hours, the four of you perform various investigations, identity spells, and attunements in order to assess the magical qualities of the other items
Starting point is 00:27:08 that you'd stolen from the dragon's hoard. You find a small floating mirror. The magical mirror is a circular frame of polished. silver and it floats in midair defying gravity about a foot above the ground just as normal but wherever you kind of place it it will stay in order to offer you reflection this is amazing there are three wands in this little horde a wand of gust a wand of web and a wand of darkness each with a handful of charges remaining. There is a haversack that can be slung over both shoulders for comfort, crafted from durable burgundy fabric featuring brass, clasps, and buckles, which turns out to be another
Starting point is 00:28:05 bag of holding. Doren. And Doren can carry his own chains. That's the... Yeah. There is a set of folded fabric pieces, which are magical. And, And kind of puzzling until you manage to unfurl them. They take up almost the entire footprint of this tap room. And you eventually recognize that they are sails. These are magical sails crafted from silk. They glow lightly in the darkness. Well, Red puts them into the bags.
Starting point is 00:28:47 They'll go perfectly with a folding boat. we now have a little bit more speed you'll be able to assess their magical abilities perhaps when you come into your own ship there is a drift globe this drift globe is a thick glass sphere that weighs about a pound and whoever claims it can speak a command word to cause it to emanate light or daylight you can also speak a command word to have it move around in the air, essentially. So it's just like your quintessential hovering ball of magical light, which is fucking awesome. The cart is a hilarious item considering that the three of you worked so hard together to make it move because you find out that you are able to command it to move on its own. Oh, you could have said something there, buddy. You can You can essentially mush it to move forward, you can cause it to go left and right by saying lean or tilt, and saying the words repeatedly increases its acceleration or the direction of the movement.
Starting point is 00:30:04 It's just pivot for the tavern when we get it back up and running. Red taps the wall and his hand goes through the wall. Mari, like, gently pats the cart, like, oh, I should, like, feed it some splinters or something. the magical chest is a chest of holding essentially its interior space is considerably larger than its exterior space so you're able to throw all of your belongings in there although it's a static item unlike the bag so it's got to be like sitting on the floor basically because it's a heavy little guy you manage to swipe a couple of animated objects as well there's an animated broom some animated cutlery and an animated long sword
Starting point is 00:30:50 that's swooping around the bar current. Oh, you! Red pulls out his rapier. You again, I remember you. You and I went toe to toe way back when. I'm not going to get hurt this time. Red hops up on the table
Starting point is 00:31:04 and pulls his rapier out. Get on that wall. Foot goes through the table. Oh, damn it. You fight dirty. And then, of course, there is Wim's immovable Rod. which she has not parted away with.
Starting point is 00:31:18 Wow. Well, we made quite the hall, although I do have to say, admitting that I was the strongest supporter of looting from the dragon. Suppose there will be some fallout, Red says, as he, like, feels the leather on his new armor, just lying on the table. But maybe it'll be worth it.
Starting point is 00:31:39 What's done is done. Yeah, I don't really want to go back there. I'm not going to return it now. Hey, it's done, though. we uh we did it we laid our friend to rest i feel pretty good about that yeah yeah i also feel really good about doing that but but i agree it was somewhat anti-climactic if that makes sense there was no big gust of wind or rainbow or you know firework that went off it just sort of you know happen and I really truly hope deep down that uh we actually did what we were meaning to do there
Starting point is 00:32:21 i think so i feel good about it i mean death's anticlimactic it's just an ending good point well i suppose uh we'll want to settle in a little bit i mean this is this is it red turns around in the tap room trips over a piece of wood uh i'd love to show you around uh come on And Red skips to the barnum of the steps heading up. He says, over there is obviously the bar and Lyft. Just, you know, there's nothing to serve, but he'd be happy to help you. And come, and Red runs upstairs. What is Lyft?
Starting point is 00:32:54 Is Lyft dead? Should I be? Oh, Mario just heads up after Red. As you reach the second flight of stairs, you see that Wim has set up like a hammock in front of a window that overlooks the street. and she's sort of curled up in the hammock with her arms behind her head and she's just looking out at the city. Cool, William.
Starting point is 00:33:19 This is where I was sleeping too. That's okay. We can bunk. This here is one of the final places you can use. There's two rooms over there. And beyond that, there's another room. The roof is a little leaky, but it works. What does that mean?
Starting point is 00:33:34 And Red runs up another set of stairs that, like, head up and turn to the attic. That's like the one thing a roof. It's supposed to do, right? Jack, it's better if you just don't ask for clarification, just accept what is happening. No, understood. We're in for a ride. Okay.
Starting point is 00:33:47 It's just vibes. Let's go. Understood. It's got the vibe of a roof, even if not the function of a roof. Exactly. Exactly. What's next, Redd? On the second floor, Red's like, that and that are their bathrooms.
Starting point is 00:33:59 So I usually use that one. That one needs some repairs. Maybe Darden can help with that. Those are the stairs to the attic. And over there is the store, well, it's a ladder to what used to be kind of a, like, a tower thing, but it doesn't really work anymore. The roof collapsed up there as well, but
Starting point is 00:34:16 these are two extra rooms as well, and there's a little room over there that I store stuff in. Don't go in there. Okay. I mean, you can, but, but it's just a, it's just, and Red Lake awkwardly stands in front of it. It's just a dog, you don't want to, it's a messy room. I haven't
Starting point is 00:34:32 done a lot. You like checks the door and make sure it's like, yeah. That's the messy one, okay. Understood. Jack says, looking around. That's the messy one. Um, shales in one of the rooms that you can have. You'll have to get him out, but what else? What else? Oh! And Red runs back downstairs, like, frantically look. Oh, my God. So much more running than I thought there would be involved.
Starting point is 00:34:53 Down by the front door, he, as everyone enters the tap room, he, like, reaches down to the front door, and he's like, in here! And he lifts up this heavy piece of wood and slams it down on a table next to the magic item. Like this. And this is the sign that used to hang out front. troll skull manna and tavern oh oh it's fine it's fine door and it'll fix it and there you go reputable yeah it's a fun little how did you get this place i wanted it a poker game oh actually that makes sense i yeah but yeah i love what you've done with it thank you thank you and murray like leans again something and just like like a just something slides through the wall slowly
