A likely place that he might sash them. Yeah, and I'm just throwing out ideas. That's what we use him for. And how? Good one, Doran. I can't feel a thing. Shut it up. Not going to be that guy.

Okay, okay. I'm not giving up on this. An alarm. Doran. He's doing Doran. I really want to know what's inside that show. No, stay. You stay here.

This is a smart idea, right? This is Cloud Giant Craftsman Chip. I like the idea that there's like a chorus of goblins inside is the alarm. There's one small thing in the chest and then just a ton of goblins. Hello. Hello. Somebody's breaking in your chest In your chest Welcome back to

This is Season 2 Episode 154 Go Through Fire MVP this week is Marvin Tanner Who wrote a lovely poem that you'll hear At the end of this week's episode Thanks Marvin. you're this week's MVP.

All right, should we do this? Yeah, let's do it. Woo! When you're new to Dungeons and Dragons, I feel like, especially with new DMs, you're very, you covet the material. And maybe as a new player, you're like interested, oh, how many monsters are there. But as you, as you become more seasoned players, they don't give a shit about that. don't care about seeing behind the screen they in fact sometimes it's fun to know the whole plot

line like certain players here and uh like just make it work out even better like maybe you know a dungeon front and back and you just are like hey what the hell maybe i'll go this way even though i know it's a trap i always love a challenge like and a surprise so for me it's he doesn't even know how to play d and d you're bigger than 10 men Alex no no i just mean like what an inspiration even if I could look. I'd probably go, no, I don't want to see you. Listen, here's the thing. We're all playing remotely, right? I could literally buy the module and like looking at it. If you wanted to have the adventure book open beside you, you could. You could Google all of the monster stat blocks. And I'm going to. And then you could be one of those field that's like, nope, nope, actually that's wrong.

Can I just ask you, Tim, what is it like to be playing a module that you know so intimately? I mean, it's funny because in one sense, I absolutely love playing an adventure. I've seen lots of people do in different ways because what's exciting to me isn't the adventure. It's how we're going to do it. And that makes it, like, that's why I love D&D so much 100%. But also that being said, I teach D&D to kids on a regular basis. So I am intimately and everyday familiar with the feelings. that come up where the kids are like, uh,

but I think it was a 20. And I'm like, do we want it to have been a 20 or did we get a 20? Because it's just, I'm gonna coach you through this experience of like, let's just take the 11 and accept that that's maybe what happened and we'll get the result and we'll move on from there. So it's, what it's beautiful sandbox

to like learn how to make the best of failure? Cheat. Oh. Like, what a beautiful protected moment. Yeah. I was thinking that exact thing. You were. That 100% name.

At everything right there. Just like Tim would say. Absolutely. Absolutely. My favorite part is when they're like, oh, I rolled an eight. And I'm like, that's, and they see me like, I don't say that's bullshit. But they know I'm thinking it. They're like, are you kidding me right now?

That was a great idea. This is, ugh. I guess your friend's going to have to jump in and maybe, oh, he's, he can give you inspiration and guess what the game of d and d is built around teamwork and everyone like helping each other and stuff so it's really cool and if you're if you're if it fits tonally failure's where the funny lives so that's it yeah absolutely 100% i often as you guys are now well experienced and i will often be like oh i'll take the the i know this is a bad idea but i'll just i'll go this direction anyway because red will think it's it's it makes

sense to try to bite Duke's alto. So, I'll roll this skill I'm bad at. I'm telling my neighbor all about Dungeons and Dragons and now she's listening to Dice Shame. That's what they all say. But my point is, we were talking about, you know, is there rules and play? And I was talking about just like kind of the vibes around the whole thing, the do's and the don'ts when you start.

But also like the gameplay. And I was like, well, there's like definitely things that you could do. do during gameplay like I'll go and open doors and my party members are like what the hell are you doing weird specific example weird such a random example that definitely didn't just happen like oh I kind of went over like the kind of the general rule like when you sit down into a convention which I have never done but you guys have all told me there's like what is that set of rule like there's moral stuff you just don't talk about based on safety tools yes thank you safety tools lines and veils yeah yeah exactly I kind of I didn't

didn't use those words because I couldn't think of the terminology, but at the end of the day, I was basically talking about, you know, you don't torture people. That's the feeling of the table, et cetera. Hey, you know what? If you a relatively, and this is funny because when I say you are an unseasoned player, it's true but also not true. Totally. Because you've played literally hundreds, if not close to a thousand hours of D&D. With you guys. But also you know so little about it that it's almost shocking at times. So, I feel like you're right in the middle of what I can say is the fact that you've taken away that lesson without knowing the titles, who cares, says a lot about how important they are,

which I think is a good kind of way to. Well, yeah. And, you know, some of the don'ts were like, don't, like, if people are taking serious, they don't ruin the game by goofing off, you know? He says taking his second shot of whiskey already. No. I play better when I'm drunk. It's a cure. Relax.

That means we should fire into gameplay right away. All right, well, should we do this then? Yeah. Yeah, all right. Should we play some D&D? Yeah. Yay. Fuck yeah.

Let's go. Having thoroughly investigated the bedroom, which you assume to belong to Duke Zolto, you've uncovered several interesting features. One. Furniture and belongings, which suggests that the Duke is part of a couple that iron slag may also be ruled by a duchess.

Two, a giant-sized iron chest outfitted with a combination lock and discovered to be trapped. Three, within the fireplace, beyond the flames, a pipe feeds through the wall, something which is assumed to carry natural gas, and possibly common to all the fireplaces in the Forge Citadel, a potential means of travel so long as your potions continue to confer immunity to fire damage. And four, the sound of angry sobs echoing from somewhere. You guys want to go bully a teen? Add to have. Let's do it.

I was thinking of the opposite kind of. We've been in similar experiences like with booty and the orc teen. That's right. I wonder if this is a rebellion. teen as well. And Moog from the Hill Giants, which was before Temeel and Widd's time, but Moog was a sort of outcast hill giant that we could talk to. So, yeah, I like that.

And Red having heard sort of the weeping sort of, you know, lock size with everybody and kind of gets the same vibe and says, you know, that does sound like a pretty upset child, depending on how old they are. They may have reason to one event to someone else. other than daddy and mommy. So what would be our approach? And do we want to try our luck with this chest before we go? Well, look, I'm not a skilled rogue.

I know I play myself like one, but I'm truly just a ranger mechanically. And I think if we were to try to tamper with that bad boy, the trap could be anything from a poisonous prick to a wide-ranging alarm that would rue the end of our little adventure. So I'm hesitant, but Redsville looks to everyone else. Perhaps Duke's Aldo doesn't carry the keys and the conch with him at all times, and this seems like a likely place that he might stash them if he weren't holding them close. Very true.

Yeah, you make a good point, yeah. But we know where this is, and we know where Duke Zolto is, so maybe we go check with him first and come back here after. It's just more time. Yeah, and I'm just... throwing out ideas, you know, there's the fireplace and, yeah, we could go see that giant teen, teen giant. Good one, Doran.

At the same time, if we were to hide in the corner here and watch Duke Zolto come back, he might just open the chest himself and reveal what's inside. Look, I think it's important to remember the goal here. Number one is to find if there is a way to shut down the Vonnegad, and if Duke's Alto has the means to that, you know, key. Second is a conch. Ultimately, Adoran and I and Tamil have a duty in some way to finding out exactly how this all ends with the giants. And then thirdly, and hopefully, easily kill Duke Zolto to put an end to his terrible reign.

Ultimately, just like we did with the Poindexter in the basement, I think. Recon, research, deep diving, chatting is the way to get to the key and a conch. So even if we find our way in here, if the key's not here, then we've just kind of shot our shop and possibly missed, you know? Widdid's already starting to like hover off the ground a little bit in the direction of the chest. His visors kind of slid down and one of the eyes is extended. Like he keeps, he's scanning it kind of, but in a not aggressive way. I don't know if we should really even think of leaving this room without having a least seen what's inside. I'm sure whatever traps or armaments are going to be more along the lines of something that I can disarm and get this thing open potentially.

I think it's worth taking a look. The means to control the voted dot, as you suggest, might be in this room. I think we should take a look. All right, well, look, Witted, does your scanning reveal whether this thing is, I mean, it looks like a combination lock, but does it have a key? You know, is this something that Duke Zolto could just come in and unlock with one thing, or is it something that needs to be sort of, do we need to question Duke Zalto to open it is kind of what I'm getting at? I can get it open. Note, Witted does not actually have a magical ability to get this open. He's just really confident that if this is a puzzle, he's going to like, I can crack.

it and he thinks he can crack it with like a roll too which is again like not he's just like surely surely this is something I can outwit a fire giant on I think of the vibe would he know would we didn't know whether this is like a combo lock only or if it has a key because he's scanning it I'm just I think he's curious to find that out like if there's a way to hack his way through this would it would be like trying to almost scan for that I think I would even be willing to drop a detect magic at this point. Oh, actually I already have Detect Magic on. Right. There is

either nothing magical in there or the chest is of such a property that you cannot see using detect magic, whether there's something magical inside. I think Doran is investigating the fireplace and potential corridor.

He's not going in, but you know, he's like, I think he's looking at the chest and then as all the focus because everybody kind of looked at the chest. Doran's sort of like, you know, poking his nose into the fireplace.

Is this a potential corridor? Yeah, Wim comes along with you. She signs at you. Doran, what do you think? Hmm. Well, looking in, does it look like there's like enough space for people to walk, like clearly?

This pipe is small enough in diameter that you would presume the giant engineers who laid it would not have imagined themselves to be small enough to ever fit through something like that. But if you were to crawl, you could probably get in there okay. This is not a stand-up in March through situation, but if you wanted to, it's not like a crawl on your belly kind of thing. Right, right, and in between.

It's like a sewer. You would be like duck walking or maybe crouching through. Duck walking, just like fully, yeah, anyway. Wait, ducked walking? You have to vogue. Yeah, you have to vogue all the way down. Yeah. The fire is going in the fireplace, right?

That's right. If Temeel sees Doran close to the fireplace, she might kind of call over to him. Doran, how do you feel like testing whether or not our potions actually will allow us to walk through that fire? That is what he's good for, Temeel. Good pull. Stick your hand in it.

That's what we use him for. Even before you finish your sentence, when you say test the fire, Doran, like, is looking at his hand, and he's, like, already recalling how, you know, all the heat he's seen previously and how it has an effect. So he just, like, puts his hand right into the fire. Just stay as to it. He's straight in. He's like, yeah, I can't feel a thing. This is wild. Good to know.

I say we go for it. Well, hold on. Witted's still looking at this thing. Come on, Widdidd, what do you see? Oh, yeah. I mean, Witted sees this combination lock. It's like the size of a, like a hefty loaf of bread with three tumblers, and each tumbler has numbers on it. Apart from that, like you could try to pick the lock if you wanted to, for sure.

And then this chest is something that you guys have already investigated last session and determined that it's definitely trapped. I think I was more going with Widdid's greed was definitely pointing him in that direction. But seeing the rest of the group focused on the fire, he is going to let you, like, admit, you can definitely see him processing. He flips the visor back up and he goes, that, not going to be that guy. Okay, okay, okay. And he starts like, oh, oh, but he. You're not even going to try it. Fine.

Whatever. Geez. Red was like hoping your greed would let his greed in. I almost breathe this. sigh of relief, I think, as Witted, he has overcome this temptation and he's going to start to float drifting over to the rest of the group

kind of moving forward rather than risking setting off. Whatever. Red kicks like a giant button. Deep down, he's like it's at least 20% a siren type trap. Any other trap he thinks he can handle, but he is worried about setting an alarm or something I think was

mentioned actively by Timil. So I was like, yeah, when he hears that he's like yeah he starts to return yeah i just want to see is it is it purely combination lock or does it look like some combination locks have and sometimes hidden like a key option to disarm it and i just want to know primarily if we need to get this number out of duke zalto watch him enter it or if there is a physical way to disarm it does not look like there is an obvious keyhole okay But again, you could try to pick the lock. But does Duke Zolto, with Tamil having been here,

does Duke Zolto wander around chanting a particular number? I mean, do you remember that? That's a very good question. Yeah, does he chant the combination to his super chest. He's like, 1698. He does. 1698. That's the number I have to remember.

Can't say why. Can't say why. He built it to the code of his footsteps. We've uncovered it. Fibidacci sequence So hang on a second Okay If there were some sort of alarm trap

Wouldn't that register on your detect magic Like it has to be a physical Is that reasoning weak? That's a meta It's a meta I mean maybe we could roll an arcana Or something to find out I could see the character standing around

They're like Who uses like a real alarm? It's got to be magical And then like we get it open and the freaking shoe pops. I was like, diga, digger, digger, ding, ding. I'll put it this way.

Oh, fuck. An alarm. The users of the spell detect magic know that there are certain physical materials that impede the flow of that spell. Like, lead.

An inch of lead. Anything could be in. Something of iron, something of stone, like a certain amounts of thicknesses of materials prevent you from seeing past. You know what? Red says, Hey, Dorn, quickly, what's this thing made out of? And he just knocks the edge of the thing.

Because you got, you're an iron worker. Dwarf sense. Your last name's got iron in it, you nerd. You nerd. I should. No. You got stone cunning. I do. Iron stone. Anyone who listened to me give the introduction no

knows that it's an iron chest. Okay, never mind. It's iron, red. oh right I knew that now would iron do I know

you could read the text of the spell that you have for free thin sheet of lead one inch of common metal blocks it I was trying to think

of potential ways to mitigate an alarm if it's like the alarm spell where it's a it's like a remote you know like a remote thing where you don't need to be

in earshot to hear the alarm then can't help at all and I was trying to figure out if like if I just if I cast Tiny Hut around it to sound travel through

and there's nothing in the text of Tiny Hut that talks about whether or not sound penetrates it. Well, I can do you one better. I have silence.

It's a risk though still because if it's like if it is like an alarm spell then it just like it fully wouldn't help. Oh, I see what you mean. Yeah. Oh, okay.

Also just to reiterate the dimensions of the box, it is nine feet long, six feet tall and six feet wide. Right. Silence is. a 20 foot radius so that would so if it if it originated if we could find out that it did originate from the chest then that would but again if it's magic then it doesn't really I like the idea that there's like a like a chorus of goblins inside is the alarm there's one small thing in the chest and then just talk about a goblins hello hello somebody's breaking in your chest in your chest every morning they feed the goblins we're gonna want a boss we're the boss boss boss boss we're Gotta warn the boss, one of the boss.

Worst alarm. And how, you said nine feet long and how deep, sorry? Nine feet long, six feet wide, six feet tall. Okay, so listen to this. The portable hole unfolds to six feet in diameter. So, so we just put it underneath one end and tip it in. If we put it on the wall. It's also 600 pounds.

You can only put 500 pounds. The portable hole holds. I also hate to be that guy, but six feet diameter. or if I'm thinking correctly, we have a square peg round hole situation. I don't think that, yeah, I don't think that it would actually fit.

No, you're right. You're right. On a diagonal, on a diagonal, it's longer than... It's moving a couch. Move it.

We're like trying to push it. No. I'm going to levitate it to the left. No, your left. No, dang. Yeah, and you could levitate it? No, levitate it.

I could... 500 pounds, I think. Oh, my God. absolutely right yeah okay okay all right well whatever red waves his hands says fine i'll join you guys by the fire and he walks over to the join you guys dorin's meanwhile been listening i think dorin and whim have been listening through the vent i mean whim definitely has not been listening to anything okay well dorin has been listening through the vent he's got his ear kind of up to it his chat he's leaning right into the fire he's got his ear in the vent that's so cool yeah yeah

Doran, you're hearing like an enraged cry. And then there's a crashing sound. Oh, shit. Is it like consistent crashing? Like, is this thing, is this giant throwing thing? Probably. Okay. Doran turns to Whim, who's like next to him and he says,

Yeah. Well, what do you think? Would it make more sense to me for me to climb in there as a goblin or something? Whim nods, eager. Also, Wim probably doesn't hear the, the thing that you're talking about. No, but she's like, yeah, go in there. She wants you to go in the hole.

She signs to you like, yeah, for sure, go in there. I want to see what's in. Do you want me to go? No, no, I'll go. Any kind of says, no. She's like, are you sure? No, I'm sure. Doran starts to climb in.

No, stay. You stay here. It's a little dangerous. Doren, you make your way into this pipe. The insides of it are. caked with soot and it's almost like kind of slimy for some reason, like black and slimy on the inside. Just like you can tell that like oil is just hot. And if these pipes were to cool down, obviously it would harden. But this is like molten soot. You're like

crawling into like coal dust and shit. Condensated oil, natural gas oil. As you move in, there's immediately a T-junction. One side goes left. One side goes left. One side. side goes right. So Doran's going to go to the left, which I believe is where the sound is emanating from. Yeah. Towards the next room over. Cool. Everyone sees Doran, like his little goblin bum, uh, crawl into the pipe.

And then he turns left and he's out of sight. I feel like this goblin costume is like this awkward, uh, Halloween costume, you know, that's like he's thrown together. But obviously it's not. No, you look just like that Cook Goblin The server guy who is holding the platter of stuff What I really like about this plan is that the like The goblin disguise gets like a free pass

Jumping out of the fireplace Yeah Might raise an eyebrow That's a good call That's funny I'm not saying you shouldn't do it I'm just saying Whim turns around towards everyone else And she's like fully standing in the fire

She points at Doren's receding form, and she signs like, let's go! Yeah, Dorn's taking it pretty slow as he crawls through and thinking to himself what he's going to kind of say if he has to say anything. Like, ow, I'm on fire. Help, help, help. Timul will tap red on the shoulder. I'm not giving up on this chest, but I actually don't have any thieves tools on me, so I wouldn't mind trying to pick this, but I just don't have the right. gadgets right now. Right, well look, maybe we can find you some

or use something else. I'm with you. Witted immediately from out of his hands just starts to produce these tools from out of the gauntlets and goes, listen, I wasn't going to necessarily make the suggestion

but if you'd like to make use of these or I could, I really want to know what's inside that chest. Can we meta a little? What's your sleight of hand? Yeah, it's a Dexterity check, technically, and then you apply your proficiency with the tools as you, yeah, modified. And I will 100% enhance your ability with Katz Grace to give you. It would be, I have proficiency with thieves tools.

I'm just trying to figure out if I have any other bonuses. But if it's dexterity based, I would have a total of a plus six on it. It's a straight up dexterity check? Yeah, it's a dexterity. My dexterity is a plus eight. But you're not proficient with thieves tools. tools. Oh, no. Sorry, I didn't really. Yeah, I'm not particularly dexterous. So, like, I don't normally do things like this, but I do get my proficiency bonus. And unless I'm misunderstanding, I also have tool expertise, which gives me a plus four to my proficient. It basically gives me expertise in tools that I'm proficient in. So I'm getting an extra plus four on that. So it's a proficiency bonus to plus eight in all. That's a plus 10. and if I gave you cat's grace

you'd roll with advantage. Advantage. Ooh. Bingo. Holy crap. You can use tools you're not proficient with but you just don't get to add

the bonus. 10's better than 8, so. Yeah, totally. But I just didn't want you to think like, oh, how do I use this lock pick made you, like you can still jam a thing in there and try it out. Red's watching all this and he says,

well, look, in case it is an alarm, I can be on standby with silence. It might not work if it goes everywhere, but if it is centralized to the you know, chest, I can shut it up. That'll be very much appreciated. Should we wait for Doran to get back or just go for it?

I mean, look Doran is doing Doran, you know? Wim has also disappeared fully into this type. And Wim is taken care of them, so I say. I feel like the three of you are like are saying this, but you're not feeling it. You're actually like feeling very, very anxious about Doring off on his own.

What the fuck is this Doran gonna do? That's quite evident. Well, look, remember when Doran opened that door and we were over dealing with Point Exeter in the basement? That turned out fine. Exactly. And also, maybe it's our turn to get to see what's in the chair. That's it.

The greed over. Joe, would it be possible for Red to actually give me advantage if he's helping me? I don't know if this is a situation where someone could help someone on this particular Thieves Tools chest. And I realize, given the nature and abstract nature of this check, I'm not sure if that's, yeah. Well, not only do I know a lot about giants, I have big strong arms and I can help turn those big, turny things. I'm thinking that we could possibly both get involved if the tumblers are large enough and the inner mechanisms are able to kind of facilitate us. We can each maybe get an arm in there.

100%. If not, I can kind of scurry up and, like, with my feet and my back against it, turn the dials. I just love the idea of, like, this idea of, like, you know, there's so. big that we're like stepping on them to turn them. Dimeel leans against a wall. Perfect. Save me a spell slot. There you go.

Wait. Cool. This is a smart idea, right? We're doing this? Let's do it. Do it. There is. Let's have a very important dexterity check from our friend Wittittitt.

You got this. Whittitt. First roll. All right, a 25 and a 22, so 25. Whoa. That's probably good one. Boom. This is, and I'm making the, okay, just lean, lead against that particular brace there, and I'm just going to.

I'm trying here. Thank you, I did, the leverage was helpful, and he reaches out the foot and, like, clicks the last tumbler he thinks, and he's like, that was either the right move or exactly the wrong move. And he does not know whether he just, like, dinged 25 or whether it was maybe 30. Under your dexterous efforts, the tumbler clicks into place and falls away from the chest. And as it does, a cloud of gas emits from the chest. We didn't disarm it. I forgot. That's how it works.

Save. Please make a constitution saving throw for me. Oh, I forgot there are two different checks. I'm going to use my insurm. inspiration, because I need this. I would. I would do that. Yes.

I got a 19. Ooh, 14. I didn't get the visor shut in time. Red? 16. Okay. Doran and Wim are unaffected, being far enough away from the radius of this trap.

Red and Temeel save. However, Witted, you take 45 poison damage. Forty-five? Correct. Temeel and Red. you each take 22 poison. Holy shit. It feels really bad breathing in this caustic, incendiary smoke

as it just billows out of the chest. Needles. I'm at 53 hit points. Shit. This is going to put me, ooh, at a cool 42 thanks to the temporary hit points out of 73. Uh, Witted tried to seal his visor shut to like protect him, but he sealed a bunch of the poison in with him. And you hear him hacking, go ahead, no, no, eject, eject a shut, the contents of, uh, venting the smoke out. No, no, no, it's like the, you hear, you can almost hear him slamming against the visor, like the guy trapped inside the sinking like, no.

Oh my God, that's so terrible. He's like firing all of his rockets. He's like, hit the button. accidentally, setting off alarms. Tamil will go over to Wittittitt, and take him by the shoulders and say, Wittitt, you have to calm down. Just calm down. We're going to help you out.

I'm going to, as I touch Bessie, I will cast Healing Word at third level, and you get 20 HP back. Nice. This was just a burst, right? Like, it's not still there. It's not, like, ongoing. Good. We're just standing in the cloud. Oh, that's spicy.

meatball. I've had worse, though, to be honest, I've had worse clouds of poison. That was particularly nasty. Sorry about that, everyone. I forgot the, it's been a while since my bit out picking locks. And that's how it works. That's how traps work, everyone. Red sort of longingly looks towards the fireplace to Dory and would be like,

maybe I should never mind this is good all right do you open the chest and look inside now let's leave guys fuck this chest Witted kind of like floats to the ground next to red and he's obviously very bashful and he just says I

like yourself despite having roguish affectations occasionally am no rogue it is clear he makes those regular size thieves tools kind of like pop out of his gauntlets again and they're detachable so he just sort of gather them up, he's handing them over

to you, like maybe for the future checking traps and locks and stuff, I'll leave that to you probably. We did. Oh, hey, you did great. Yes, you succeeded in the task but before you. You picked the lock. That was the task. That was what you were

intending to do, and you couldn't have done anything about the trap. Task failed successfully. Yeah. But these look so fancy. Red takes the thieves tools, as he's saying. He's like, I couldn't possibly. He's like, I already put them away. I kind of look at them like, oh, wait, you didn't need, okay, all right.

And he puts his, yeah. And then when it goes to turn away, he's like, oh, hold on, Mazdaq tradition. You can't take someone's tools without offering another. And he sort of feels around, it's like, oh, here. And he pulls out an item that I've met up and excited to show Wittitt for a while. And it just says, here, why don't you hold on to this for a while? It's a cloud giant's blade, but it's a woodworker's tool, and he hands widded his cloud giant knife and says, you know, I use this once a day to make an arrow that's imdued with fire or some sort of element.

It's magical. So obviously, I'm only lending it to you, the same way you're lending the tools to me. But this way you get to try your hand it, maybe some fun woodworking, and he hands you the cloud giant knife. He reaches out and accepts it. is cloud giant craftsmanship. This is, most of this dates back to ancient historian technology. This is

incredible work. I, boh. Thank you. I will make you something with this. Oh. And he puts it away. Thanks, Witted. Red puts a hand on Bessie. Timil's got kind of a thoughtful look on her face

and she says, I don't know if we discussed this before, but Witted, if we could find you the plans for the Von and Dodd, or some other schematics or something, is there a chance that you might be able to figure out how to disable it without the keys? We'd still need to find the conch, but maybe as a backup plan? The plans are certainly something that I absolutely should get a hold of.

Many Bothans died to get these plans, sorry. There may be opportunities for sabotage if we could locate them, yes. All right. Good thinking, Temeel. Thank you. Now, what do you say? We get in this chest. Okay, now I'd just like to thank our dear Patreon supporters. Screw all their names down here. Just bear with me. Okay, thank you too.

In my soul I walked in ancient forests long ago Even then my thoughts The twisted roots of mischance

And I must took and misstepped And tripped a little bit But drifts of leaves pillowed me in the fall so stumbles I minded not at all and slumbered the long winter through I walked in ancient forests long ago in my soul Thank you.
