Welcome to Legends of Evantris. I'm Iris and you're listening to Beneath Dark Wings. Here's what happened last time. Let's just go back down into the labyrinth. I'll make a temple really quickly. Go to sleep for eight hours and we'll deal with it tomorrow. And as you fall asleep, you feel like you hear something from outside. It sounds like the flapping of wings as you lose consciousness.

Oh, shit. and then you all awake. And the alarm rings in your head, Felix. Everyone's head? And everyone's head. They all fail here. It rings in your head. As you all see in this pitch black crypt that you're in,

as staring back at the five of you, our six red eyes is a large raven. It opens its mouth and a man's voice comes out. Felix, your brother. will be the one to put an end to all of this. No, he won't. You do nothing at that black pyramid, or you will feel our wrath. You do not stop what a god is doing to protect this land.

A god that has done it before. You have failed. Or Milo would not be what he is. He is your son, and you failed him. Why do you think Vorok, that fool, commissioned the Raven Child? He has low aims of getting revenge for what happened to him and his kin. And you leave the city of the dead behind you as you enter the golden pyramid, Pharaoh's rest. You see that one, the pathway, or the recommended pathway, as sketched out by Vorok's.

map as a direct path to the personal chamber of Pharaoh. You see that there is no door. There's no door on the other side. Crossing the river is not apparently what you should be doing. You all are in Toa's boat as the water courses beneath you, the breeze in this chamber is able to keep you about it at the same spot. But as you peer over, you see that there is a bank on the other side, but the wall on the other side of the chamber seems to go up directly against it. There is no door. Is there a door at the end of the river?

Can we have to sail down the river? I don't we find out through the magic of our old play? Jesus. That's my intention. You look, and you see that although the river continues and it's moving, that there is no door on either side either. So I take us to the other side of the river. All right, we did it.

See, that was barely an inconvenience. Everybody get off. I mean, it's really nice that you had a boat. I'll hop off. Yeah, you hop off, and it's a little bit muddy, and then it kind of turns into this weird, silty, sandy, almost as if like it's transitioning from a riverbed to hardstone that makes this place. All right, so where's the door?

I don't know. That's your job, Felix. I'll go over the river. And I have to find the door? Yes, you've had the last door. Just look at that. We literally have a map that tells us where all the doors are and where we're going. I look at the map.

Is this particular room on the map? Yeah. How detailed is it? I mean, not particularly detailed. It's like one of the places to go in order. to make your way to Anka Tap be on the path less traveled. How did I end up with the map? Look at it.

Get the map going. There's no details on this thing. You're one of us who can definitely read. I mean, I can read, but you just probably It's faster. I mean, I see the room, it doesn't say anything about a door. Who's Peter Pedigrew? Yeah.

And he's sleeping with Ron every night? So shouldn't someone save something about that? That's wild. It does seem like a little bit of an oversight. That explains his last name. Ew. Oh, poor key. Okay.

Well, all right. I would like to quit. I cast quit. There is no sense. Jesus. It's hard. So there's no door. here and there's no indication on the map as to where to go next.

So let's just follow the river. Get back on the boat. We'll relax a little. Maybe it'll be nice. Well, we can't go back the way we came. The river's flowing one way. We just have... I'm going to jump into the river and see if there's a door. Reception Jack. I feel like I'm taking crazy pill. 28. 28. You, uh, leap into... I've swumming you. You, exactly. I've swumming you. Dive. As you peer and open your eyes and you look around and you actually see a faint glowing orange. Gold as orange.

And you see at the bottom of the river, far down at the center of this chamber, seems to be a circular hatch with a handle at the bottom. Beside it is a holder that has a swirling bit of musical notes within it. Oh. However, it's also in this moment that you realize. you see all around you moving shapes as these circular body, but long, a pointy-tailed fish with razor-sharp teeth. Piranhas, yeah.

The piranha-like. They're Akirian-Dyre Paranoes? Actually, yes. As Akirian-dair piranas immediately swarm towards you, what do you do? I am going to use my feline movement speed to just shoot my ass towards the head. Oh, okay. Like, fuck it. Is that water?

Huh? Just additional to my movement speed. It doesn't say that to be on the ground. So, um, I would say that you, uh, you are dashing and you, you, um, you are swimming as fast as you can. I need you should make an athletics or acrobatics check to see if you can dog these piranols. I probably cannot, and that will be hilarious. I don't understand why she just jump in the water.

19. 19. Um, I will say within 19. I will say within 19, you are able to manage to dodge this first round of prong, but you actually see that they're starting to swarm more and more around. As you make your way to the hatch, and you see that same ornate holder that is a swirling, almost egg-shaped bit of musical notes and just kind of dancing around. As you pull it open, you are immediately sucked through this whole.

and you immediately clash onto the hard ground, completely drenched in river water, as some water falls with you, but then you look up and you see now it's a strange, watery disc above you with just dozens of piranhas now swarming around and then looking back up towards the surface. Oh, God, my nail, it's perfectly fine.

I'm sure it should be fine. What's, what are you fucking crazy? We have to follow her. I'm sure they'll get to the memo. How long has it been? Did we see any of that? I mean, I feel like if she's probably able to hold a breath for a while, she's just looking, we'll give it another 30 seconds.

I'm not going to give her any much. I'm going to immediately run to the bank and see if I can cannonball into the hatch. We can't see the hatch. Oh, I haven't seen the hatch. No. Then I will cannonball into the river and hope that Iris is there so that I can protect her because of the nature of her spirit being whatever. You dive in and your eyes adjusts in the water

and you see around you as you're surrounded by a massive school of Akirian Dyer piranhas. I will, as soon as I see the... I will attempt to cast thunderwave to get that way. So we're just standing on the banks and all of a sudden the water's going to like... I will say you do that

and I'll always roll... You see as they get blasted, you are killing a good number of them. As they blast out, and now all of you start to see these fish float to the top of the river and then make their way down as the water is disrupted in a massive death charge. Caprice, you see that you have a moment as the fish are disoriented, that there is a circular hatch beside this swirling bit of musical notes. As soon as I see this explosion, I'm gonna look to do and be like,

he must be in trouble, I'm going in, and I'm gonna jump in. I think you're right. Come on. Hold my breath and dive in. And I was making acrobatics for athletics or athletics and see any of the DC will be set by. Thank you. I don't go for the hatch right away.

I see musical notes. I have to stop and investigate and get a sense of what this could possibly be or mean. So knowing that I'm risking piranha limb in life, I will swim up and attempt to look closer at this golden sigilly magic bit. Well, the fact that you have lingered is then also going to raise the deceit.

That's fine. As you're going to see as they swarm towards you. And they've been killed, exactly right. So now on dead, acrobatics, triadic. Oh, okay. Dioring. All right, out of the frying pan into the fire,

as I'd say. That's going to be a 19 in the acrobatics. A 19. I will say that you're able to dodge a few that are still that are starting to regain their consciousness, as you're able to go up to this swirling bit of this swirling bit of energy, what are you trying to discern here? If the musical notes create a pattern,

if they are a song that I could learn, if it feels like they're similar to the heart, or if there's something that should be grabbed and taken, I just want to get close and get a sense of that. Making an icon check straight. straight. Felix, as you dive in, you suddenly see... Lufties with me as well.

Okay, both of you. As you see, the piranha settling in, what do you do? I'm feeling very arcana, 21. 21. This seems to be the same song when you had seen in the vision. On the... at the Mohawk way, says.

You remember that the fragment of the Ka, the fragment of the river, had been basically the representation of song, of voice, of loot, of liar, of trouble. How many piranhas are there? A lot. There's like, there's hundreds.

An endless number. Do we only see the piranhas? You see the piranhas and then I think that you'd be able to, to, you see that Capriese is by this glowing thing and then there is a hatch with a little bit of flickering light beneath it. And it's not open. I would look at Felix and don't, woo! Yeah, I mean, I would look around see Caprice.

I would not see Iris anywhere, but I would see the hatch. Yes. And not being able to scream out to, you know, you, because we're underwater, I would start swimming towards the hatch. Okay. Lifty pointed to. The acrobatics and athletics for both of you is the pranis. Making the revelation that I have, and I would turn to the hatch and start to swim my way towards it, assuming that iris is through it.

I would say you need to make one more check as you linger, as the prong is swarming towards you. Oh, I'm getting chewed by promise. Okay, yeah, you're able to dodge and you see its caprice fall through, drenched in river water. 12. 12. 12. The piranha swarmed you. As you see, as you see. That was more directed at the situation

and Mike's response more than your family. And you call yourself a Hufflephe. Five, ten. Sorry, Mike's is like 12. 17. 27. Jesus, 28 points at piercing damage. What the fuck is?

They surround you. I hear you die, I promise. And they swarm so. heavily that you are not able to proceed. You have to swim in order to survive in this moment. You will not be able to proceed, push through as they swarm towards you. What did you get?

I got a shit, a 16. A 16. Oh, that's also not enough. And you take the same amount. As you take the same amount. Were they disin, I guess, it was 28. 28 points of piercing damage. As you are devoured by piranhas

and you are forced that onto the shore. Did you roll one attack for the model? I ran a role of her both. You decided to go with Felix. Is, is lifting your- But was it disadvantaged? I would say that this is not- Shut up and take your damn damage.

Trying to save you. Is she close up? What was it, 28? 28. She close enough for me to grab her? I would say yes, because you're all being swarmed together. I would realize that I am in immediate mortal danger. I would grab her arm.

And I guess I have to use Dimension Doors. furthermore. You do that and because you use the resource, you now, the two of you see Lofti and Felix collapse beside you, completely covered in Perak. They're still through Parano. They're still biting. I would be like ripping them off of my flesh. Why would they do that? They have these crazy red eyes. I would take my knife out and start like, like stabbing at them trying to get them off me. You absolutely do that. I told him's not gonna make it. It's not gonna make it.

I'm just gonna pause here and in a meta sense really quickly. Just be like, I love playing with Rich because of how well you maintain the game state and knowing where you are right now, I'm just like... So last I saw, I'm not just to see them jump in. All right guys, I'll put away the boat. Don't worry. Go without me. Okay.

She's... You know, they don't respect us. It'll turn to my boat. I'll say walk a, and it'll kind of kneel down and I'll take my box and I'll sort of slowly open it and I'll just very gently pick it up. I hear like some like boboling you know put it in the box. You see a few more fish rise up and start to... Can I see but blood? Oh there's tons of blood. There's tons of blood. There's tons of blood in the water. Oh no. I'm just going to dive in and just try to get a sense of what's going on. At this point, what do I see? You see blood in the water rising dead piranhas

as their swarm. A massive swarm now is gathered towards this portal that they seemingly are unable to make their way through, at least deliberately. And you see that same ornate container, the holder that is holding this swirling musical, notes as the piranhas all turn towards you. What do you do? Um, I will go, uh, hold on. They're basically those really low-res fish models from

World of Warcraft, you know, they'll have the really janking movements. That's incredible. Yeah. Nice. That was teamwork. Oh, that was good. Um, hold on. We're just sorry. Did you just kill something on a godly chair? No, I killed something on a godly Kelsey. Oh. It landed on me and I go, smet me. Ikea.com. Toast me. Toss me. I prefer mykea.

I'll go, and I'm going to grab my bracelet. And I will, in the water, I'll say Meku, and from it, a water shark will emerge in the water, and I'm going to try to get inside of it, because I can share a space with that. Oh. Clever. And I'm going to be... I'm going to be physically try to have... So I'm inside of this water shark, and I'm going to try to have him swim me to the hole,

Okay. I was in making athletics check, and the DC will be... Piranha and meek shark. What? He's a water element. You can't swim through it. You can? Maybe. That's a natural one. Oh, my.

Eleven. Eleven. That's still enough. That's still enough. As you see the magical glow of your magical water elemental shark, you swim through and Meku burst through this school of Piranha, and you see them struggling in and some are snapping, snapping, all getting very close to your face as Miku managed to burst,

press them out with his magical water as you crash through and a magical water shark crashes through with Toa inside of him. Hey guys. What the hell, Doa? I'll swim out of them and I'll be like, why didn't anybody warn me

that they were piranhas? Well, nobody wanted us. Yeah, we all kind of weren't able to warn the next people. I had to put away the boat. You'll just lift me. I'm sorry. He saw the water go, and I thought Caprice was in trouble.

But it was just us. She was in trouble. The moment I jumped in, they attempted to attack me. So I just swam to the bottom, simply open the hatch and get home. I mean, she won't have got me. I feel like you really kicked off this chain of events, and it could have gone better. I am not the result of the choices you make.

I saw a lot of blood. I guess it's from you and you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, we certainly couldn't. leave you guys. You still have one in your armpit. Oh, I open my bag of holding. Forlavia, just in case. It suffocates and dies.

Easy one. Well, that present was really easy. I mean, it wasn't that easy. You guys got chomped up quite a bit. Yeah. There were so many of them. I didn't like that at all. Blood in the water

Na na na na na na na na na na Let's move on to the next room Oh I know that one Oh that's the first song in ukulele I ever learned I'm You're right there Very poorly You're so close

We should jam together more I forgot it's been a long time It has been some time Somebody else take the map I'm done. I'm really good with MAP. Yeah, yeah, you are. So we all agree that the next chamber,

we should try some tests before we dive into anything. Yeah, and we should stick together. Okay. Like more. I, uh, you're welcome for finding the door. Well, that was well done. I would feel more gracious if I didn't have a thousand tiny bite marks on me. They're not that tiny.

There's like, my like, sheet flush is like, There's like giant missing like... Yeah, your tendon is like hanging off. EO! EO! My stolen code is just like absolutely like shredded wheat. You look like reverse pepperoni pizza. EO!

This is the grossest thing you've ever said. Yeah, that's kind of messed up, though. Help me up. What the fuck? Did you just think of that? Yes. Yes. Yes.

Just point where we were. we were there. We were there. Okay. We got to go over here. Oh. All right. So we should go and I look around and I try to correlate what I know where we are and I would say you're able to do that. Give it that. Okay. Well, we go this way then. Yeah. I start leading the way. All right. Here we go. I will follow along. You do that. And as you continue on your way, not taking time to heal from the piranha wounds. You hear the drip, drip, drip, drip, blood, making a trail from Lifty and Felix.

He said ominously. Yeah, that's the most ominous thing you've ever said. As you make your way, you make your way through the corridors that go up and down in strange geometrical patterns. and pathways, some of it, sometimes feeling like it's not following the appropriate laws of physics, almost like there's non-Euclidean geometry, the deeper you get into this pyramid.

And you almost lose track of time as well. However, as you pass what looks like a strange, what do you call it a center chamber, like an anti-chamber? Not an anti-chamber, but like a main chamber? Anyway, just chamber. The inner chamber is the closest thing that I can think of right now. Where there's... Inner chamber?

There's a four pathways and it's a crossroad section. Room? Water chambers. Tomb. Chamber choir. Bannhammed. You hear

as the scraping of bone and glithered flesh and the flapping of wings is closer than ever. You need to make a stealth check for me, please, to see. And disadvantage because there's blood.

All of us? It's a group stealth. Oh, that reminds me. Oh, no! Well, I rolled a Natty, 20. I rolled double threes. So I got a six. Ten?

Disadvantage, you say? 20. That's where I'm never, fuck. 20. As we're walking, I take every step I take, I'm like, ow. At disadvantage, I roll a natural 20 and a 15. Oh, wow. Ow.

Six. Ow. P good, fam. Oh, that's good. I got sick as well I'm just trying to oh wow

that's still 12.8 okay pretty good average yeah wow I guess yeah I mean 12's not

I rolled a natural too so that's so good for us the universe wills it so as you look back and you look at the blood

trail that has been left and you managed to scoop up Felix and Toa and dive behind a hallway, getting away from the blood trail. And as you make your way down the hallway, you're supposed to go, as designated by the map that the Carrying King had designated, you see as you peek your head around Scooby-Doo style,

you see the scraping start too quiet as you see this massive, undead winged cobra, just almost gliding briefly through the hallway. And you hear a low hissing as you see a tongue lap out and hit the ground, looking up the blood. As, but just through almost divine providence, you pull your entire party down a different hallway. And this winged snake, you're lucky that there was not just four, there's five, there are actually six different hallways that could go down as it continued down one that you were not.

And who knows how long that labyrinthian tunnel would take it before you ran into it again. Felix, we have to clean ourselves up a bit. Yeah, I will, uh, I'll nod and I'll actively, like, start prostitigitating myself. Okay. And we'll have to do at least clean up the blood and anything we might be trailing behind us. Yeah. I think. Do you guys need additional healing stuff?

Uh, I mean, I'm not like in danger of, passing out anytime soon, but that did not feel good. No, but I have some ointment. That might start some, stop the bleeding. I think I actually have some of that. Do you want to excuse me? Some of this, this ointment? Yeah, I'll take some.

Okay, here, you just, it's in this bag here. Why do you keep that in a bag? Whoa, how else would I keep this one? I don't know. In like a medically safe container, something that wouldn't be so gross. Just fucking take the Ironman. I'm gonna pass.

Are you sure? Yeah, it was very generous of you to offer. I don't have that. I'm gonna pass. Oops. How do you pronounce that ointment? Ointment. Just ointment?

Ointment. Uh-oh. There's no like special magical guys name in front of it. I found it in the corner when we were visiting that giant that one time, and I thought I'll take that. Are you sure that's ointment? Yeah, I'm going to be a... Honestly, I will trust that once I reach my hand into that plastic bag, you're going to tell me that it's something about Coombs or something. You're going to make some Coombs joke.

Are you saying that I picked up like some Cloud Giant's condom and I've been carrying it with me for fucking... Well, I was multi... I was multiple... I was multi... ...the words, not mine. Like a Ziplog bag of massage oil, but I mean... I've already given Loofty one dose. She healed.

Two to eight plus two. Oh, God. Love that you put that on your skin. Among other places. Oh, no, how long is it been? I'm really gonna pass. I think I'd rather, I'd rather risk bleeding out an infection.

Nobody wants this? Get it away from me. I'll take it. Oh, as soon as Coons shot. It's no. Yeah, all right, here. Have I have a little. It dangles.

Great, thank you. And I'll just rub it on me. And it's 2D8 plus what? Don't put it on your mouth. Oh, God, you put it on his lips. You can just roll it. Oh, and I have to mark it off. This is the oymund smell like.

Lohn says maybe that's why she looks eternally useful. I originally was going to give one to every single person in our party, but you're... DM, please explain what the oint smells like. Yes, DM. Exactly what you expect. Okay, good. It smells like medicine. It's exactly like pancake bag.

That's so weird. It is Quicky. All right, well, if you guys are going to yield up, then as long as the bleeding stop, I think that we can move on. The map says we're right around the corner. Rub a sack that it's in. It's starting to become brittle.

Yeah, that's why I'm trying to get rid of it so as you're breaking my pocket. You wouldn't get this in your pocket sometimes. I did not leak everywhere. This doesn't make any sense, Cochreys. I tied off the top. You were killed by a golden dragon, Capraise.

How did it survive that? Of all of the questionable things that you've done, this is the most illogical. I can't wrap my brain around this. I don't know what to tell you. I've had the sack of goo in my pocket for the entire time. It's been months.

I know. I mean, to be fair, I rubbed it on my hands, and then they smell a little strange. I do feel more rejuvenated. You know, if push comes to shove and I'm about to, and I mean, I'm about to die, then I'll give you permission to use that away, man.

Oh, look. And I start pulling it off of my palm like you do when you let glitter die on your palm. This is so fun. See? Rejuvenating. On second thought, just let me die. It's not worth it.

We're not going to let you die. We're going to do everything we can to keep you alive. Okay. All right. That's not really like a threat. We should move on. Yes, we should go to the next room. We go to the next room.

Hurry. We run. After leaving the huge winged cobra, undead cobra behind, you make your way to one again another stone double door. This time, it's not a river, it's not a mountain. You

see a night sky and a large moon, the crescent moon carved into this door. And it says, Chamber of the Moon, as you might expect at this point. Chamber of the Moon. Now again, open up the two stone doors. You

open up the stone doors and you have been enjoying it's low light, but there had been the occasional torch or razor lighting this general place, seemingly perhaps magically ever burning. However, a blast of bitterly cold wind and sand hits your skin as you step into a room that is incredibly dark, almost like it is not just an internal chamber, but something that is that is bathed in constant night.

And there's a little bit of light in here, as you see above you, little dots of light. So if you're seeing stars dotting the chamber, as you see a sliver of a crescent moon above you, just a sliver, just perhaps a day or two past a new moon, above you, as you stand in a tall, There's a tall dune that goes to the center of this chamber and large monuments. Stone statues, it's hard to tell at this point what they are.

But they circle, they top of this dune in a ring. This doesn't seem so bad. It's a little chilly, but it's pleasant. It's kind of pretty. Yeah, I guess we better get this. It's like Kirstein in the winter. We better get this over with and summit the dune here. Okay. All right, be ready for anything.

I promise. I'll fall afields at the do. Okay, you do. And it's not difficult to decline. As it gets colder and colder, though, however, as the desert night infamously freezing gets more and more oppressively biting cold. As you look up, you see that these statues overhead are just staring all directly at each other.

And you see that there are actually six statues in total. And they're just staring forward in just complete motionless. Hmm. Those are our face towards the center. Maybe that's what we're looking for. Yeah, just let's approach cautiously. Right, right. Just approach slowly.

So it's high up in here. Just kidding. So where they're looking at, they're standing, and you are basically in the center of the top of this doom, you're saying at the center of a circle of statues. And you see that sliver of moon is directly up ahead. Above, rather. Do you think that's the hatch?

Could be. Oh, so it's really far up, though. I was hoping maybe we're just, you know, I'll start kicking the sand in the surface. or the circle, like, saying if there's anything under there. You do that. You keep digging in. You're actually, your foot hit something. Cool.

And as your foot hit something, you dig away and you see the skull of someone who had died in here, buried in the sand. Perhaps we should stand outside the ring of statues, just in case. I'm just going to cover that back up. And would you like me to talk to it? Oh. Yeah, but let's bring it like out of the circle. I don't want to like, I just worry that it's like right here in the center.

How can you talk to it from a distance? Oh, I don't really want to use the energy to do it. I was hoping you'd say no. Okay, well, I'm backing up, and I'm going to step out of this ring of statues. And I don't want to be standing inside the ring of statues. Okay. If that all possible. Also back away after a.

Ninety-night. Okay. I mean, what do we think? Maybe you're right. Maybe the hatch is up there, the moon. Maybe it's not what it looks like from down here. Right. The door could just be designed to look like the sliver of a moon.

I mean, could it be in the doom? Do we dig? That's what I did, and then I found that that guy. But you could keep digging. How about you keep digging? Okay, I'll keep digging. No, don't keep digging. You're just going to find more dead people.

I start digging. While you're digging, I'm going to look at one of the statues and see if any of them look easy to climb to trying to get to the top of this. Are they all identical? Make a perception. I would say make a group. Perips an advantage, one of you, you decide as you're looking to see if they're identical. Wait, wait, Towa, come back, come back. I can do this a lot faster.

And from 30 feet away, at one action at a time, I'm going to move five cubic feet of sand. By casting, mold earth. And just excavate it. As long as loose. Yeah, it's loose. You're able to see that. You see another skull fly out. You see an arm, a rip cage.

And I'm just going to dig for a while. Yeah, you find four corpses. You guess four corpses. Could be a little bit less. Could be a little bit more. That would be more concerted if you found five. 25 perception. Oh, looking at flesh.

Jesus. You look around, they seem to be equally scalable. And with Lifty guiding you, you actually see that one, they all seem to be what look like perhaps high priests of different gods. And it's really the headdresses that have changed. You see what looks like a lion, a hippo, a crocodile, a cow, or a bull, perhaps, a falcon, and a falcon. and a and a jack

and you see that one is missing an eye hey moved to you see that statue missing an eye right there oh yeah I do see that you're better climbing than I am it is the one with the falcon headdress would you be able to go up to the one with the falcon headdress

and see if there's anything in that eye or why it might be missing an eye compared to these other That's that true? Does it look hollow or like I assume it doesn't have like an eye patch on? Right? So no. It looks as if they have eyeballs with eyelids on them. This just seems to have like an empty as if the whole thing has come out or has been roofed or was never built in there. It's basically an empty, an empty sock and it's very dark from where you can see. Yeah, okay, give me a minute. And if anything weird happens, just tell me, okay? We'll scream. Okay. And I'll, and I'll, get a running start and kind of just bound up the statue.

Okay. As you climb, it gets colder and colder and colder. I need you to make a constitution saving thrill for me. As you attempt to scale the statue. Pretty good. You're around 27. 27. You're able to shake off the bitter chill of this.

I'm used to it. As you climb. And it's here. It's cold up here. It is here. As you climb this falcon-headed statue of a priest, as you, although you were unable to see it before, you peer in and you see a faint orange glow.

And within this empty crevice, there is the same ornate holder and an onk with an unblinking eye that's rotating slowly in that same color. I think my talk. A. N.K.H. N.

Right? Yeah. I would see. I would not have guessed the H was the end. H. And you now see that there was some kind of optical illusion. And your initial deduction had been exactly right that the moon above is actually, you see that it is a circular door that was a little sliver of light. But only from the top of this statue.

Are you able to actually see where the handle is, and you can easily reach out and grab them. You're right. There is something in here. It's one of those things. I've seen it on you. I forget what it's called. Money?

No. Although I think it might be on some of your money. I don't really remember. It's a, you know, like a symbol, a holy thingy. Which one? It's got an eyeball in it. The eye of porous. I don't know, maybe.

Let's go with that. I'm still digging you. Yeah, we're still digging. And then it's like... Oh, and the door. The door's up here, too. Oh, great. Good.

Oh, I've seen this one before. Diamond dead the rug. Oh, so what the hell's that? Is he cursed? Is anything grumbling? I, you scared me? You see a tiger skull, pants out. Oh, no, I guess it's different.

Totally amulated. Can we stop dating? We found like four bodies. Yeah, yeah, the door's up here. Thank you. God's. And I'll start climbing. I'll climb to.

You do that, and as you climb, you all see these high priests, the statues that are all staring in each other. You climb the, what you presume is probably in the effigy of the priest of Horace. And you climb, you all see that same holder of the Ka, the fragment of the moon, with the the onk, with the eye of Horace engraved upon it. It gets colder and colder for all of you. I would need you to make Constitution saving throws, each of you. I guess Toa had advantage because of your mountain of your of your heritage.

Well are we are we affected because it's high altitude because I also don't suffer penalties for me and not it's because the it's because of the the cold better. Seven is it a saving tree? 26 do I need another one? Oh natural 20 for is that. What is that? You pass it. What do you get? Where that it coming from by proficiency? Yeah, nice. 20 resilient con. 22 If you failed, the DT17, if you failed, it is 15 points of cold damage.

Special, you've just given it bad. I will take seven. 15 points, you said? 15 points of cold damage, yes. If you fail. How much you want to bet? I'm gonna roll it, it's gonna be low. Oh my gosh.

I better roll it again. Don't dare touch my new pistice. This bitch over here just rolled my new bis dice. I just my sacred die. And I told her, yeah, I said, don't do that. that don't do that, you're gonna give it bad luck. And she was like, ha, ha, ha, and I said, watch, I'm gonna roll it now, it's gonna roll low

and I rolled a five. That dies ruin. I know. Gotta give it to me for fun. For funnies. For funnies. Would you take half? No, no, just no damage.

Okay, I don't. I pass. I take seven damage. Oh, because you're resistant to cold damage. I took 15 points. It's all, while they're climbing, I'll reach out and pull the hatch down. Oh yeah, you were able to pull it.

As is you're able to slide it and you see that moon get larger and larger and larger, and you now realize. that you are able to pull yourself up in another chamber, another hallway. All right, in this period. Better than stupid piranhas. Only three more chambers to go, I think.

Right, lead the way. If this is left, I look at the map and see if I know where I'm going on. Yeah, you would say that you're easily able to discern this. as you make your way through, as the, you eventually, and once again, you lose track of how long you've been walking, and eventually you arrive at a double door that says, Chamber of the Sun, and you see a blazing desert sun on it. Oh, this is going to be pleasant. I imagine it might be a little hot. Or blinding, perhaps.

Yeah, we'll just try to move quickly, I guess, and stay. and that's your long? All right, here we go. I take a big swig of line as he's opening the door, Dehydra. You do that. Yeah, that's vibrating. He blast you the second that you open the door

as you enter what looks like a massively tall circular chamber. And far taller than the previous hall chambers that you had entered. And at the center of the ceiling, you see an absolute, a ball of fire that's radiating, blasting like the sun in this space. Power of the sun's in the palm of my hand. Thank you, Sam, Ramon. If the trap doors up there in the middle of that, I'm just not going any further. I mean, we won't be able to.

It's just awful. How big is the room? I mean, like, is it just like a large... Yeah, it's a large circular room, probably the empty feet across. And, you know... You guys stay here. I'm going to take it around, just figure it out, and see what I can find. And I will stretch forward.

I'm going to go to the center of this chamber first and look up and around. And it's balmy, but I'm doing okay. Make your perception check and disadvantage. Because it's such a blinding. I'm going to use one of my Bartic inspirations on myself. We got this, Caprice. Come on. That's going to give me into a 15.

A 15. You look up, and it is so blinding from this orb of fire that's radiating light on you. You get the sense, if you look at it for too much longer, you'll start taking the image. Oh. That'd be blind. Okay, I look away. Shit.

Nothing here in the center. I'm going to try digging a little, but I'm guessing the sun's probably the thing. I'm going to feel around in the sand to see if there are bones or if there's an artifact or if there's anything directly underneath the sun. I would say that you're able to

is take that time doing it. And it's very, it's a very low, a very small layer of sand. You hit the stone Oh, quite exactly. There's nothing under here. I mean, if it's in the middle of it, hold on, I've got an idea. And I'm from 60 feet away or as far away from I can. I'm going to attempt to like frostbite it with the can't throw just to see if it'll, it'll weaken or do anything at all or if it just like evaporates as it like leaves my head. I would say that it's the ladder, right? where you see a blast of frost shoot up and immediately singes and sizzles as vapor lifts up into the air. All right, that was my whole plan, hey, it didn't work.

Well, this was a good idea anyway. I mean, how... Does anybody have something we can throw? Are there, like, any rocks in the sand or anything like that? There's some pebbles, yeah, I would say you could find, like, you know, bits of stone or bits of fragments of crumbled brick. I mean, it's the only one like as hard. as I can just like wing a rock up into the fireball and like see what happens.

I would say make an athletic check to see how far you throw it. It's pretty high up there. Yeah, you eat it and it goes up 10 feet and then falls back down. Maybe have toa throw the rock. It seems like a toa thing. Toa throw the rock. That was just embarrassing. I don't know why I thought I could do that.

It doesn't like so. Yeah, just as hard as you can. at the sun? Yeah, just really throw it in there. Do something? I don't know. I just wanted to see what happens. I don't know.

Go ahead, Chris. I'm making athletics check. 13. 13. You throw it. And it gets a little up there, but it just falls back down. And as it hits the ground,

you see that it's kind of glowing a little bit. Glowing a bit of a... It seems to be hot. All right, new plan. No more throwing rocks. And we can't get close to that thing. It's like turning that rock into magma. What the hell are we going to do then?

There's nowhere to go. It can't be in the sun, right? I mean, it could be, but I feel like we'll just die. I think it's in the sun. Honest, could you, like, build your temple and, like, block the sun? My temple has a lovely open courtyard and open floor plan to allow the sunlight enter every crevice. Oh. That's not very helpful.

Can you make it not do that? Why would I ever want to do that? What do you think this is, 1980? While we're talking, I'm going to close my eyes just shielding against the brightness and walk around the edge of the room with my hands and just feel along and see if I feel anything on the walls. I would say you run your hands and it feels like brick and it's warm brick, right? You almost feel like it's almost like an oven.

God, I hate this room. As a hotter, and hot art. Yeah, okay. And I assume I find nothing. Nothing out of the ordinary. God, damn it. It's in the sun.

Who puts a door in the sun? I don't know. An absolute mad person. I am, I'm going to take my staff, and I'm going to cause a plague of insects to fill up a 20-foot radius sphere

around this thing to at least obscure the light for a second, for us to at least get a visual of what's going on in this room. Okay. Because it says it obscures. I like that idea. Iris slams her staff onto the ground for scarab staff. Oh, no. As the room gets dark for a brief moment,

as the orb that was the sun is swallowed by a buzzing, a swarm of insects that you can already hear as igniting into flame. However, your eyes adjust very quickly. And I'll say that with the sun entirely gone, you don't even need to roll for this.

You see that there seems to be some sort of stone lever beyond this orb built into the ceiling on the left side of the room. How does it, how high up would you say that it is? I would say it's probably

200 feet. Oh, good, because my spell length was 300 feet, so it's still there you go. And so, and then is there a hat? Do we see a hatch or a dwarf? There's no hash that you can see, but you see a stone lever out of the, as you are then able to, as then you hear, you see the flame

return as these, as the, as the, as the, there's a rain of flaming scleros, oh yeah, of locusts, of flaming locust as they just fall. the ground in a rain of fire. I have an idea. As they all turn to ash, though, however before they hit the floor.

The skyroves hit the floor. And I ripped out of the bag of holding. This, and you'll see a little silver figurine of a raven. We got this when we first started on adventures in Strigger. That's right. Yeah. They've been entirely worthless. Yeah, we haven't used them a single time.

I look at mine every episode and I never use it. And if I speak to command, hand would, it'll magically transform to an actual raven. And it's flying there. Or no, it'll just be sitting on the hand. It's where it's going to burn up like shit. Raven, do you see that level? There's a lever right up there. So if you fly up there and you just need to pull the lever for us. That's all you have to do.

And then you can go back to being a statue. I can't wait for the raver to tell it. I understand my commands. And I can cast Animal Messenger on, uh, I had will on it, so I'm going to tell it to do that. Okay. That's not how Animal Messenger right now. Animal Messenger just sends a message

to someone else. It's animal sending. You whisper, you give this command as the Silver Raven flies up and you have to shield your eyes as it disappears past this radiating orb of fire. And several moments later, you see a bit of

falling liquid as molten silver. So, no! as molten silver fall onto the ground and pools and hardens for a little bit. Toa. I was going to send Beatrice to help. I'm so glad I didn't do that. What did you think was going to happen with a command word like caca?

It wasn't caca. It was caca. I'm going to reach in my pack and grab my silver raven. I'm going to walk over to Towa. Zern gave these to us, and you're the only one who still has his. face, I guess. So, yeah. Didn't you turn her ears into a bunch of bones? No, that was my medallion. Oh, the dad. And I'm gonna give you my raven. Thank you, I was. You're welcome. More raveny. And I am going to delete. So the only weight of this lever appears to be through the blazing sound bubble. Close to the fire. Close to it. Right. So it's it's either flying past and climbing past it. I'll do it. If you won't try to to. To,

Something not clear. Look, I didn't want to be the first one to say it, but telekinesis. I think that you can fly. I believe I can fly. I believe you can too. I believe you can touch the sky. And you won't instantly be incinerated. Like, I might be.

You know, I've thought about flying every night and day. What it would be like to spread my wings and just fly away? Do you really? Because I can make you fly if you want to. Oh, no. It would burn all of my fur off. And believe me, you do not want to see me without my fur. I believe you can saw.

I think what you also should do is take... It's pretty good. That's pretty fucking good. That was really good. I actually really threw me off my game. You should take that bag of jelly that you have and smear all over yourself in advance. Only if I'm injured.

No, it'll act as a barrier against the heat. Trust me. Or it'll cook him alive like cooking oil. That is not anything like large. I'm not sure it's going to protect him against the heat. When he put it on my hands, it was quite warm. Noted. Noted.

Extra noted. I'm just going to rely. on the fact that I am made of hell stuff and I'm a teethling. He's 40% hell. Everything 40% something. And I cast fly on myself and I will use that up. You play a note on your violin and your feet leave the sand beneath you. What do you do?

I will try to find the path to the lever. that is far away from the burning orb as possible. I would say you're able to do that. But naturally, I assume, to get to the lever and perhaps even touching the lever itself made Bernie Bernie burn. It will be extremely painful. And then I will grab it and I will try to turn it as with my thing.

I need to make this Constitution saving throw as the heat from this massive false sun radiates and you touch the... Oh, that's just off the table. Unless it's a 20. Nope. I would think you should. just take that one that fell off the day.

I'm gonna go with a five. You're gonna take a bit of damage. Oh, God. 15, 25, 30 points of fire damage. Oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh. Are the piran is up there?

Oh, ah, oh. Oh, fuck. Oh, fuck, down. Ha, ha, ha, ha. Ha, ha, ha. Ha, ha. And then I fly back. You come back down and you're just very tan.

You, um, you're like for all. You now see as you get this close, Caprice, that there is an ornate, uh, once again, a holder. And you see swirling, circling around the form of a golden eagle, a, a shimmering and orange as it circles above you. But as Caprice finally gets it, your jacket catches on fire. And you all hear as the door opens basically just directly ahead of you. I look at Caprice's burnt jacket and then I just kind of like hold up my shredded wheat jacket. And I'm like, join the club. And then I proceed to walk towards the door. I mean, if you got 20 minutes, we can prepare that, no problem.

Yeah, before we go to sleep, I'm going to need you to fix all of my clothing. a hole in my pants and shirts all messed up. I sewed up that hole in your pants. I know, and the piranage just went right for it. Yeah. And there's like chunks of my hat are missing. To be fair, it was, the thread was made out of the sinew. I actually kind of like what it did for mine.

I walked through the door. How distressed. Well, you know, you guys may be dipped, but. Oh, no. That's great. No, freeze! What? He doesn't want to peel.

Oh, through your hair! Ah! Come on! That's disgusting. It's probably really like pancakes. Just why? I'm gonna use one of these fucking charges. I'm gonna use Felix's charge.

Good rinse. I don't want that garbage anywhere near me. It has a lot of electrolytes in that. It's extremely potent. Excuse me. It smells like kind of. You have like... fun fumble with the top of it to get it.

It's like, it's really rubbery. If you get the knot and just... Oh! I think it's gay! And Caprice, you know what I like about your little rubber, rubber sack of creamy white ointment? What? That tiny little tip at the bottom that just...

Oh yeah. It's really cute. Yeah, yeah, I assume that that's where all the nutrients are. I'm gonna be sick. Oh, God. You sure you don't want it to do this? Get out of wait for me. Why does it have all that ripping on it?

Well, I assume that it's for the healing pleasure of the user. That's for like massage. Do you sure you don't want me? Yeah, I'm pretty sure. You're right. I'm okay. I'll put it back in my pack. Shall we move on?

Myself into the sun. I'm going to move towards. I'm not. bleeding with the map. It's going to be one of those headache days. You make your way through this pyramid, and you see there's various doors and chambers

in this place that go off, and once again, the geometry gets stranger and stranger. And everyone to make a group perception check at disadvantage point in place. Disadventive. managed. Yep. Ooh.

These guys suck. Oh, I roll like, like bunch of it. Let me do these two things. Like bug shit. Oh, I got a 19 and a one. Regular shit, bad. Yeah. Roll over 10.

Yeah, this is bad. Perception, you say. Yep. I got A 10. 18. 18, 13. 13. 19.

Three. Oh, good shit. What do you know? What the fuck did you? I told you I rolled a 19 and a 1. and a one. Plus two. A perception?

You're a monk. It must be higher than map. It's your wisdom modifier. Plus seven? That's saving through. Oh, that's saving through. Plus two? Yeah, plus two.

I'm not a particularly wise monk. I'm high in Dax and Khan. Oh, there we go. Because I'm a drunken monk. That makes sense. Okay. It's with this perception that you, I hold a natural 20. Okay, we're only in my snake. That you make your way and you arrive at another circular antechamber

with the hallway. It's not more than, 20 feet where you see a doorway that has an hourglass model. It, and Iris, you're able to read that it says the Chamber of Time. Not chamber of time? No. Okay. Chamber of time.

in the entire test is whether you can read an analog clock. I would never get past it. Oh, shit. What you fuck? Crazy, put you forward or backwards? I don't know. That's a good idea. And as you make your way into the antechamber leading down,

how long you've been walking, walking these halls, it becomes so monotonous, so repetitive, that you have, lost your sense of alertness. And you only hear the flap of brittle, withered, leathery, undead wings just once before you look up and see the massive unhinged jaw.

It's my first wife! Of a mummified winged cobra, dive bombing towards you. Everyone roll for a initiative. Oh, fuck. 15 to 20. Are we really ready to go get back in the time? Yeah, I'm ready.

Let's throw on some battle music and if I can go. I'm 19. Did anyone get higher than 20? 13. Yeah. Turn the thing off. Rich. Oh.

Oh. We're all here. Everyone, it's here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. So Caprice is from, Yes, I am. Okay. Actually, let me roll for the...

Leave the thanks. Okay. The sneaky thnag. Caprice is first. Then who's that your Caprice? 17? 17 is Lifty. You're up there. 10 to 15? 13. 13. You both of 15? Yeah. I had to do 9 plus 4. That's what you get? It's always a tough. You go the first. I'll go first name. I'm last.

Oh, slow poke, Felix. I twist my ankle in the sand and by the snake. Let me, allow me to, so you see as this massive winged, um, undead cobra lunges for you with venom and strange necrotic energy. dripping from its mouth as it lunges towards you. With that, you're not surprised, I heard. Basically, at the start of my turn, as long as I rage first,

I will take my turn during the surprise room. Okay. So, as it is, it's going to use, I guess as it goes before you, it is going to use its breath as it is flying down towards you. opens its mouth and this horrible mixture of venom

and necrotic energy blast out towards the ground in a cone. I need everyone to make a dexterity saving throw for it. Oh, boy. Come on, here we go. I see it coming. Shit. Um, come on, come on. At this point moment of reality, have we even seen it?

Like, do we know it's there? I would say, I would say you see it coming. You heard one way. We could have it. 19. Okay. I literally can't roll like over a seven. This is two floors.

Jesus. Roll again now. You have a million twists that you guys can use? 12. What's the, yeah, I want to use a twist. Can you give me a twist? Oh, we don't know. Three. I got a 16. Do you think I need to test it?

Would you get? A 16. That's close. Do you need any bros? That's close. I'm gonna try this guy. I don't think of trying. Okay. 29, so I at least take that.

I got a 19. 19, Iris. I want to die. 13. 13. I don't want to. 16. Toa?

Uh, six. Okay. Luffy, Iris, Toa, you take the full brunt of this. Fuck! As it blast down, you're going to take a 10, 14, 14, 14, 17 points of poison. 17 points of poison damage, and you're gonna take half, obviously, so you succeeded.

12, 18. 21 points of narcotic damage. Oh, God. Half of you succeeded. As it blasts it towards you. So how much total? 38? Yes.

I will use my reaction. 36. 36. 36. I will use my reaction to you can't. you can. You can. You have reactions. Yeah. Yeah. Is being immune to poison, does that mean I can't take poison damage or I just cannot become poison? No, you can't take poison damage. Okay. So then what was

the... It would be 14 necrotic, right? I thought it was 21 necrowly. Yeah, it was 21. Then it was then it was 305. 35. Yeah, I'm sorry. I can act normally on my turn, but right now it's on my turn. So I believe I just cannot use reactions. Yikes. I don't know how the barbarian feature works. I'll let you decide that. You're hurting. It then blasts you all around in a perfect circle like that and lands directly in the center of you, and that's going to be it, um... Damn. It's a surprise round.

It softened us up a little. Yep. That's softening. Yeah. And then tell it gets a turn. Uh, I'm like, oh, fuck! He's here, kill him! And I will spread my stance, I will squat down and my tent.

It's actually going to be, um... Before he's not going to land. I think that he will fly above you because he is not able to use an action He's going to fly above you 15 feet here Jump. Jump. Where are the jumping? Jump, jump, jump. Jump. Jump. Just does to do it. It has to be your strength and whether or not you take a running start. Instinct to pounce. God, barbarians can do everything. I'm excited for Barnabas. Burny, babe. Yeah, he's gonna be an absent monster. Literally. So as part of a bonus action that I take to enter my

rage, I can also move up to half my speed. And then let me just look up jumping rules. Jump rules 5E. There's actually 20 pages on jumping rules. Yeah. I'd like to look up the rules for mounted combat and flanking. Fuck. Those rules are really rough. They get rough fast. You leap into the air a number of feet evil to three.

plus your strength modifier, which is five. If I move at least 10 feet on foot immediately before the jump. So yeah, that's 10, that's only eight feet here. I mean, that's huge. That is like absolutely insane. So I'm like over seven feet. I'm like seven and a half feet. You can be, and I can jump at eight feet.

Yeah, you know what? Yeah. And I say with that level of strength, you'd be able to reach. You would meet them all as long as, you know. Let's fucking go. Yeah. So I'm just gonna be. reckless, right? And I'm gonna turn. I can run 10 feet in this direction, right? I'll be right under him.

Yep. And I'm gonna leap into the air. I'm gonna try to hit him twice while I'm up there. I think that with how strong you are and how high you're able to get, how just gigantic you are. You see Toa leap eight and a half fucking feet into the air. What the fuck? He's like going to, he's like literally going, don't do you're. He's his loincloth. You look on his loincloth. God, they should go in the mountain. It's a grass skirt. The skirt, yeah. His grass skirt. Jeez.

Oh my god, it's a second sneak! Oh, no. Jesus. Okay, I'm gonna use this guy and, oh, God, this one. So this is the first attack. Still an old over 10. You're strong one, buddy. This is nuts.

It'll all turn around. Warm it up. You gotta, can you get some man in your hands? If I can make it happen. So is it 20 to hit. That'll have. Oh, let me get my health. There we go. There we go. That one hits all. Well, is a 20 hit? Yes. Okay. So two hits.

Let's find out if he prox and also does old the other crazy... I'm not going to have top. I'm literally mid-air. I don't think I have time for all. There we go. There we go. Big money. So 10, uh, 18, right? Yeah, 18. 18, 28, 38 points of, damn, it's pretty fucking good. 38 points? Yeah. Um, and that's two separate hits, right? Yes.

As you smash in, you see the withered flesh of this cobra along its underside. And it is so long that you're easily able on your, your arc through the air as to it leaps forward and you're able to stare up his skirt. But you watch it. And as you smash into it, ripping away the withered flesh and mummified, uh, the, uh, the bandaging and bone, you see, you hear the sound of wailing, as you just see these hoar, these twisted faces in agony, perhaps of victims of this cobra,

as they all spew out this disgusting necrotic, goop onto you, as you're gonna take damage for each of those heads. Oh my God. Okay, so hitting it hurts. That's good. You're gonna take a total of, Uh, six, ten points in a chronic damage.

Okay? Mm-hmm. And land. With that, it is now a compete turning. Oh, oh, hold on. Oh, now that is my turn, I can use my reaction. Uh, you're right. You can.

I am going to, uh, as I land, you will see, um, on my back, I have not just my Borpel, but I have the mantle of the Lion King. That's right. That will glow probably with a golden light. Now, everyone 15 feet, just everybody can regain 1D4 plus, sorry, one second, 1d4 plus 4. Let's go. Oh, wow.

Eight. I almost damaged myself. Five. Seven. Five. Five. Wow. Wow, you're really fucking, that's hilarious.

Okay. And we'll save my turn in. I'll save my turn-ins there. You see as this wadgett, an undead wadgett, a winged snake looks at you with these empty eyes, but it is very deliberately hunting you down. Do I know the name of the snake or what it's all about, what it's feeling?

Or any information aside from the fact that it seems to be the pet that we saw with Onkatep on the pet. That's all you know? That's all I know. That's all you know. Hey, snake! You know why snakes don't

drink coffee? Because then they'd be too viperactive. I cast hideous laughter. That was terrible. Well, it wasn't for you, Iris. You got it, right? And I give you inspiration. Yes. Unfortunately. DC 17. I believe it's the wisdom. I get the ass lot. Yes. Almost with something else from now. I was presuming of wisdom. I don't know how this It succeeds? Yeah, it was 18. He got an 18. Ah, eh.

Well, um, Oh, you hear it. It's funny. Uh, I'll, I'll still go one, two, three, four to move away from it and potentially invoke the attack of opportunity that could happen by... He's still 15p? Yeah, but it has a big dangly tail, which is attempt going to use this reaction to swing down upon you. I will attempt to dodge. Um, in a narrative way.

narrative way, not in a mechanic. 28. That hits. It will smash into you dealing. It will smash into you dealing. Wow, its reaction's gone for one more two. 20 points of bludgeoning damage. Oh, fine. As it smashes into you and I need you to make a strength saving throw

to see if you even make it as a. Oh, really? So I'm still technically here. You're technically here because it's at 15 feet range. I turn to run and I get a 12th. 13, no 12. You can make it one square over as you are smashed by this tail and collapse.

You still have your movement, right? So you've used five, and then you have what you have left, which is 25. Yeah, but I'm not prone, right? Right, and so then you would spend... 12 and a half. And then I have... 12 and a half left.

So I can go here. Cool. So as that... Would I be able to attack that tail as it's coming down, attacking? to freeze. It's basically a quick whip. So it's 15

feet up. I would like to God damn, I'm short. Jump off. Do you have like levitate or something? I guess I do, but it's like once I'm up, I don't really have a whole lot of control over it.

I can't like move around with it. I can go up and down but I can't like move. Can you run up the wall? Yeah, if you raise yourself up enough to be able to hit it, you don't need to move left to right, right? How tall is the chamber?

I would say it's probably 60 feet. I don't love that because if I run, then I'm going to get an opportunity. I'd have to run up the wall and jump back, but I'd get an opportunity. Mechanically, you know, he's already used as React. Oh, that's fair. That's fair. Okay, well, I guess I'll try that.

So I would just run, I would basically be running towards the wall. I have 55 feet of movement, so I've got a ton. I would basically run up the wall and try to spring back over coming down with my spoon. And you're able to, what would be the rule about springing off of the wall, I guess? I would say you would be able to get enough. Are you dashing for your bonus action? Well, I have 55 speed. I think you'd be able to make it.

It's only 15. feet to get to the wall and run up and jump. I would think you'd be able to do it. Yeah, I would basically run over 15, up 15, and then use the rest of that to spring. Yeah, I think that makes sense. I would say just make an acrobatics show to see how grace will you do it.

You are an epic super monk. I am an epic super monk. Maybe not. Not very grace, maybe not. Acrobatics, 13. Okay, 13. I'll say you're able to go and make two attacks as you fall down.

Okay. But you'll take a bit of bludgeoning damage. Yeah. Natural, fucking 20. And a one. Than a natural one. Okay. Okay.

So that is going to be two of these. It was 21, 21 damage, and I'll spend a key point to make it a stunning blow. Oh. Which is a con saving throw for you, or a stunning strike. Yeah, I didn't think about this. We turn him inside out like a sock. you smash all of your chi and as you let you smash your spoon onto it

and you actually will enjoy some horrible eight points of necrotic damage as the wailing faces of this cobra's victims burst up at you as this cobra it is stunned, it's blast by Chi and it collapses to the ground on top of you toa you'll need to make a dexterity saving throw

to see how much damage you take Okay. Uh, 18. 18. I'll say you take half of this. Uh, eight plus, 13 points of necrotic damage, so half of that. As it collapsed underground, it pushes you out of the center.

So I take me 13 points of the cronics. Yes, yes. As you land Lifty, you roll your ankle, it hurts quite a bit, take five points of bludgeoning damage. As you land gracefully, but this- I think you take half of the 13. You take half of the 13. Oh, yeah.

So you take six. Ow! As you successfully stunning strike, the cobra, as it is on the ground, plumped in a pile. Knocked over here. God! Does it lose its turn?

How does stunning strike work? Read the stunting condition. Oh. Incapacitated, can't move, speak only falter in light, automatically fail, strength, the dexterity saving throw, clacks attack rules on the creature have advantage.

But how long has he stunned for? I should say it in the strikes. And then checking the incapacity. Target must stunts until the end of my next turn. Oh, I thought it was the end of its turn. Oh, no. Oh, no. Can't take action to the reactions. So it is, its eyes are dormant and is on a pile, in a pile on the ground.

Yep. He's got that, like, jungle book like, hmm. Yeah, exactly. There's actual, like, little mini-wadgets flying around it, like, instead of canaries or whatever, cuckoo-oo-bur. So I'll leap out of the way. still get fucked. Oh, sorry. That'll work.

I'm gonna turn around and I'm gonna make, I'm gonna have to do it recklessly. It reminds me when Sylvie polymorph the fucking worm and the Anziri fight into fucking chili. And the piano and Alphonse is matching. And the origin was like, I'm Tim Curry. Oh, fuck, I'm Polymore. That's because Sylvia has like. I'm gonna make this power.

Fuck you staff or whatever she has. All made her. Fuck you stuff. So that is a 17 to hit and a 20. I did it good. 22 to hit. Yeah, both. 17 is not heading.

C.C.'s 18. Oh, fuck. Wow. Did I get that right? You attach your advantage against it won't stop. No, no, yeah. I'm gonna check for, to see if I Prock and Winfury Prox here.

No, 69, that was close. Nice. 45, no. So I, with you. Roll. Not bad. Six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, or sorry, eleven, plus twenty is thirty-one points. Okay. Is he prone or did he just land on the ground? He landed on the ground, I would say that it's a mood, he is a moot prone, yep, okay. Sneaks are always prone.

Yeah, basically, always prone. Okay. You do that and you are smashing away. However, the effect is still in place where the wailing faces of the victims of this cobra are blasting at you. 17 points in necrotic damage. Okay. Iris, you're up. Iris. Iris. I am going to cast an aura about myself.

Ooh. I am going to cast the aura of myself. the aura of vitality around myself. And then as my bonus action, I'm going to look around at my friends to see who's the weakest. Who looks the weakest? Yeah, look alright.

A close one works than I do. Um, 93. I'm bloody. I've got a lot of piranha blood on me and... Lifty and toe look rough. I look a little shitty. Does anyone have below 77 hit points? Nope.

I'm going to cast the bonus action on myself and I'm going to heal up a little bit. And that's my turn. You handle the power, the divine power of anubis and your wounds begin to close up as this radiating warm sandy aura generates from you. Felix you're up. Okay, seeing that he's fallen on the ground, I'm gonna, you know, yell and get out of the way and I'm gonna run out to the side of here. Yeah, without the... Yeah, yeah.

And then I'm going to say, we don't have time to deal with this. And with my dagger in one hand and pointing a finger at him with another, I'm going to launch a beam of what looks like molten, a small ray that looks molten lava, basically. And he's going to have to make a dex check. He's casting dexterity. I'm casting disintegrated as seven level.

Check or a saving throw? It's a dexterity saving throw. Which he fails automatically. So that's going to be 13D6 plus 40. Plus 40? Yeah. Holy fuck. Yes, please.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. Pick the good ones. What are the good ones? Eleven. The tiny ones. Twelve. Thirteen. Hey, it would be really cool to have a flying cobra on that monster.

Do you have any re-roll ones and twos? Not on my, I can't re-roll them, but on, hold on, sorry. I have one that is a, where is it, potent cantrip, no elemental adept, ignore resistance to fire, and one's equal two, but I don't know if that's only, if that's only for a certain type of spell. Let me just check real quick. That's for fire to fire.

I believe it is, but I'm gonna look. Yeah. You know what I had this stuff. What I think what you do is a really delicious. Oh my God. I took that. Oh, not a shit. What do you do?

It's bullshit. I had no idea that was the power. That's a beautiful thing. That's right. Okay. So yeah, this is unfortunately not very good. This is probably the lowest I've ever rolled. Well, but you add 40, which is one, two, three, four, five, six,

12, 22, 27. Yeah, this was shit. 27 plus six. It says 33 plus two is... 35. So 75. 75 points. That's trash as it erupts and it's burning.

You're the wailing of all of this, but because you're not a maley rain, it's oozing, gooping, necrotic goo, spilling out of it as it is on fire, unable to dodge. With that, it is... Chris turned. God, that's trash.

Oh, it's my turn? It's your turn. Yeah, that's it. What you want to do? It's your time. Do what you want to do. What the fuck? I'll turn and I'll run here.

Just to get myself some line of sight and I will the gauntlet on my hand, the fire gauntlet, and I will... Let's go. Let's see how this goes. And I will channel it to fire three scorching ray bursts. And that means that I'll be making range spell attacks three times at advantage. So let's go one. Oh, because he's not prone.

Yeah, he's not prone, correct. He's immune. But are they still at advantage? Yeah. Okay. So the first one hits. Second one is a 17 hits, misses. No, misses, yeah. 18 or the next seat.

And that is a million and bigillion. So that looks like... That's the correct term, scientific term. Amelia Magillian? Yeah. Uh-huh. I loved those books as a kid. Me too.

They will take... Amelia Bedelia. 11, 13, 18 points of fire damage. Okay. And with my bonus action, I'll say, Luffy, really, really, really well done. Just chess kiss. Thank you.

I'll give you inspiration. You feel very inspired as you are. You all three blast the snake as it is. What is the inspiration time? Continuing to get lit on fire. Or it's a D12 now. It's D12 now. Lifted.

Yeah, lift you're up. You're inspired. So I'll just, I'll look at him kind of like crispy from where the other people have hit him. And I'll just start kicking him on the ground. Everybody has fire, but I don't have fire. I just have to hit you with a spoon on my feet. And I'll just kick him.

three times in a row. Ouch, oh, it'll hit. It's. It'll hit. Natural 20. Okay. It hits too, right? Hit, which I'll get one extra for the...

Six. And a crick. Okay. I want to play in one coin, babe. Yeah, they seem very fun. That'll be plus 24. 16, 17, 18, 19, 19. 19, 23 plus 24 is 47.

And eight of that is lightning damage, if that matters. Okay, how much is that again? 47 altogether, eight is lightning damage. So 39 if he's immune to lightning. You are blasted, you blast into this. You take, however, 18 points of necrotic damage. As you are bursted over and over again. At the end of it, does that mean,

180. Does that... It has actions now. It has actions now. It is no longer stuck. Oh, and I would also move away. You move away. Yep. Um, does your shimmer shaky biz is that, um, you took damage. Does that, but does it reactivate at the end of your turn or the start? No, it should be the start of her next turn. I'm pretty sure. Yeah, I think it's a start, because that's how I've always done it on Vandris. And so if you take it on your turn, you basically lose it further round. Yeah, okay. That's what I thought. That's what I thought. Until the start of my next turn, yes. Yes. You are, you see as it raises up both of its wings

and comes blasting down on one on Toa and one on Iris as they are going to make, is going to make two separate attacks. Damn, die you. Toa is going to, it's definitely gonna hit, That's gonna be a 27. Iris. Oh my God.

No, Iris misses. It blasts. I'm gonna use my reaction. Am I going to do that? Yeah, actually I'm gonna do that. I'm gonna use my reaction to use the amulet of the sacred land. He has to make a wisdom saving throw or choose a new target or lose his attacker spell.

On you? No, on. On Toa? Well, you're also getting attacked. You missed on me. Oh, okay. You idiot. Wisdom would be an 18.

That meets it, so he can attack Toa. It blast. It'll blast. He has permission to attack Toa. Okay, Rodney. Because if he had moved to attack one of you, that's a willing move. So we would have gotten, well, Toa would have gotten an opportunity to attack. So it was worth a shot, even if it killed feelings.

15. 15. 18. Very cool. 25 points of legending damage. So 12. And an additional thunder damage. As it's going to...

How much to... Oh, no, no. I need to roll the thunder damage. 12 points of thunder damage. As you are knocked back 15 feet, you slide back 15 feet in a straight line. And then it's going to turn and fly towards lifting. Luffy after being experienced that shock of Chi Iris,

you will enjoy an opportunity attack. I know I won't because I just used my reaction. You did, I did not know that. It is not, I finally didn't give something fly by as it goes and unhinges its jaw lunging towards Luffy. This is Vintage. Because of your.

Oh. Mm-hmm. With an attack. With one attack. So no, it can't. You can't do that. No, no it can. It still should hit with a 22.

Nuts. Okay. Peas and rice. It is going to pierce into you with another deer, the eight. Oh. 22 points of piercing damage. And this thing sink into, and you see as lofty is swallowed whole, like an absolute snack. You hear the moaning and wailing of souls as you, as these faces,

are pressing into you and screaming into your flesh and your clothing as you are ripped down into it as you're gonna take it some additional damage. No. So long, yeah. 17 points of necrotic damage. 17 points of necrotic damage as you, 17 points of necrotic damage.

As you slide into its belly. Okay. All of a sudden you see like a lofty shaped face and two fists. That is its turn. That is its turn. Oh, I guess it doesn't have skin. It's a skeleton. Is it still hovering or is it on the air?

It goes back and it flies and it does have the hoverability. Exactly right. As it flies upwards and it'll probably take Luffy and fly 20 feet in the air. Cool. That's not good. 20 feet in the air. Can I do anything about that? Except that...

If only you have any kind of range of attack. I can't have some javelins, I do. Thagger's is a dick. It's a dick. Um... I'm stuck in a big of Wonders' powers, Silver Raven. I used my shark already. My Root Fury Tone doesn't gonna be flying, does it?

Nope. So while I'm in there, what am I incapacitated? You're incapacitated, restrained, blinded, deafened, not deafened. You can hear the... You're deafened from anything outside. You can hear the horrible... little as big as close as I can, but not under it.

And I'll be like, hey, Lufty! And I'm like, I'm just like, no way I can jump that high. And then I'll just pull some javelins off my back and I'll chuck two of them at him. Can I even recklessly attack with javelins? I don't think so. Let me just make sure. Yeah, you can. It's cool.

I don't think so. I allow him. They keep me out of this fucking snake. Yeah, it's only melee. Also, you're inside something that's the best way. Does Rage even apply? Yeah, that's great. Shish Kabab you.

Lukeybob. Oh no, okay, wait. And for the other end. So I'm just going to actually... Oh, shit. What did you do? I haven't done anything. That's the problem. Only 75 points of damage.

I'm assuming this thing's on Dan, right? Mm-hmm. Probably. Very, very cool. It is very clear. It's a flying scurlidon. I assume. So I hit the avatar of the car. I always forget you can't hold monster on undead.

You can't hold monster on them dead. Thanks for saying that. That's why you have to use something like the creature thing. Yeah. There are the ways to do it, but hold monsters not good enough. Why can't you? It just says it's immune. It's just under a hold monster.

It says this spell has no effect on the undead. It does not save that for me. It definitely does. 20 points of jabaline damage. As it flies in to pierce, the spell has no effect on the undead. It's right after it must make a wisdom saving throw will be paralyzed for the duration.

It's like, he's like, no, I read spells. I hear you're only the first part. No, I don't see it. It's literally right, it's the third sentence. No, it's fine. No, it's not a mask. It's weird. Pierce in.

And I'm going to roll a dice. to see if one of those pierces is Lofty. Fuck. Yeah, I'm a little worried about setting this whole thing on fire now. It manages you feel between your legs a something shoot between your feet. Benning the first time. And it's a javelin and just piercing into this thing. And with that, it is...

Irish start. I'm gonna move underneath it. Okay. And I'm gonna use my bonus action to heal Lifty because I don't need to see her to be able to do it. Hell yeah. You know she's been swallowed by a horrible. Just grab the javelin that shot up between your legs and start winkle on it. That'll hurt.

I was like, good. I can't do anything. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. You get so tried to attack it. You said I was in contested. She gets five points of healing. Grappled restrained. And you need it for five.

Five points of healing. Um, and you said it's 20th straight up from right now? Yes. Uh huh. Uh huh. Well, I guess we, I might save her spells thoughts are. I'm gonna toll the dead this creature.

Okay? No. That, yeah. No. Yeah. Fuck, it's wisdom saving through. I hate saving throw, because nothing ever fails.

Um, do you have anything that I can do that is not touch? I am going to. Guy in the bowl? The ludic thing is that. No, I don't like that spell. You can tell the dead. It's dead.

Yeah, but then it has to make a wisdom saving throw and it always passes. He's probably resistant to a t-shed. I am gonna note because blight is also a constitution saving, yourself the saving throw. I'm going to heal wounds, uh, caprice or felix. You don't you have to touch me? I'm gonna tell the dead. Can you make a wisdom saving throw? I actually, I fail.

There's no way that I succeed this. Wisdom? Yeah. That would be a seven. Yeah, no, you pass. Okay. I'm just kidding. That would be stupid.

That'd be insane. No, you fail. And so, no, you. No, you fail. All you laugh at her. Sorry. I should have given this thing legendary assistants. Mm-hmm.

Well, you know. No sense Coom's shot is just a reflavored Elf's acid arrow. Coombe is a Milf's acid era. Big fan of old. Nozs. Yeah, seriously. 26 points of probably necrotic damage. Necronic damage.

It does seem to take less, but it is not immune. As it is resistant, as it gongs out, you see some of the bones kind of chipping out and falling to the ground from that reverberation. With that, Felix's turn. Yeah, I'm just gonna fireball the shit out of it. Okay, good old trusty fireball. Hope but don't die. Well, I will choose not to hit Lufty if possible. But, you know, hey, the DMI say, go fuck yourself.

So we'll see what happens. 24, six, eight. That's an interesting point for spell shape. Do it is knowledge of your allies or do you have to see them? I'd say it's magic. I mean, roll it. No, easy right? Yeah, I'm just curious.

I was just gonna go check the tape, as they say. they say. Yeah, pretty fucking good. 10, 20, 30, 33 plus 5 is 35. I think that's it, 35. And then you could decide whether or not Lifty gets... It blasts, and with your ability to shape magic, you feel the heat as the wailing souls are howling now in your ear. It's maddening.

As it blasts and singes and it's very, very weak. week. As you see that it actually catches fire in the sinew of its wings as it's starting to lower a little bit. I roll the National 20 on the success. I forgot it's a deck check. Yeah, it's a deck check. Yeah, I take half of that. So that would be like 17? Yeah, 17. But still it's burning and you see a lot of its flesh is exposed. I said 38. I don't know what you said. I said 35, 38. 35 is 38.

Wait. So he's got more damage. 38 divided by two. Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, 38. Yeah. 38 divided by two is 19. That's my fault. I thought I said 35. 19. Yeah, my fault. My fault. I thought I was, I was divided by the wrong. Thanks, chat.

So, Bards now have something called magical inspiration. So when you do a healing spell, you can use your inspiration to add healing. So I'm gonna turn this in and I'm going to, because I did that for Lifty, I'm going to add an additional 10 points of healing. Okay, yeah, I think I did with Jericho once. Beautiful, totally forgot.

Kelsey's character Lepa kind of do that. As it's looking very weak, as it's starting to kind of lower as it's hitting it. It still has this predatory look, but it very clearly is not able to maintain that level of, of fierceness. Caprice.

Oh. I'll walk forward and say, You know, for being the assistant, the aide, the pet of an immortal insanity god like you are, I expected more. It's disappointing that you're as weak as you are. Vicious mockery. Thanks.

I think we all take damage. It'll make a wisdom saving throw. DC 17. It gets a 16. Outstanding. I will roll through it. While he's rolling for future records, I do have to be able to see the target on sculpting skulls around.

Okay. Okay. So the idea is that if I could see them, they automatically pass their saving throw. So I guess... I would say that the active fire, you're getting caught. Whatever you want to do. But now we know.

I just forget. Five points of psychic damage. Okay. And it has disadvantage on its next attack. Loofty! If you're gonna show me, you're great. She has inspiration already.

I do. I could use it. Thanks, Caprice. Oh, wow, I feel so inspired. Oh, man, I feel I'm really gonna do a lot of damage in my next turn. My turn? Okay, so within the snake, I'm gonna be like this.

And then I'm gonna- Is it a danger in the next to her? Oh. I'm gonna like raise my hand up and kill Bill style. Yeah. Oh yeah. The one-inch punch or whatever is. Yeah.

That's so good. And I'm gonna do that three times for more than the snake. At disadvantage. That's incredible. Oh, do I have a bunch of? B.C2. That'll hit. Uh, seven, that's 18 that hits, right? Yes, that'll hit.

And that does not hit. Can I use it on that? I can't use it on that. Yeah, you can use it on attack rolls. Yeah. And that'll hit. Nice. So that is three.

Oh god, that didn't count. And then we'll do one of thunder damage from within. Okay. So that'll be plus 16 is 24. 31 damage, three of which is thunder. 31 damage? Yeah. Through which is thunder.

Okay, Roger that. How low on hit points are you? Oh, God. Oh, my God. 42. Does that include the 10 points of healing? It does. I think that you would not go low from this.

So I'm just going to roll all of it at the end. Okay. First, I would like to say, how would you like to do this? I would want, so within I'm punching, and so I would, from the outside, I would want them to see like a, a little like, a little like hernia. Just like a little hernia. It looks like a little heartbeat. And then on the final hit, I would want to burst forth just like the arm and then basically

recreate the Ace Ventura when he comes out. little rhinos blood. It's like burning a rhino. And I'd be like, ah, ugh. That's so fucked up. You do that.

You thought that it was going to be cool in half a video. As you see this snake and bold and bold, her hand rips out and her face and she prides herself out as she, as this horrible thing is flapping, it's puking,

of venom and chronic goo. As I'm gonna, you're gonna have to take a little bit of damage here. This is just from the attacks that you've done, which are as follows. I will never pass up a Nase Fincher. So I think Rich and I had the same idea at the same time that if she was low enough,

she was just gonna basically get dissolved and like swallowed and like eaten. Oh my God. Yeah, you're below a certain amount of hit points. You just get eaten, yeah, you just die. So from the punches, you're gonna take 28 points of necrotic damage. So the great part about my vitality is she's in it.

If she goes to zero, she immediately goes back to one. Wow. Oh, shit. And then, because at the end of your turn, can you all see her at this point, though? Yes, her head is, she's ripped out. She's covered in inside. She's covered. They're wailing faces inside this undead creature.

It's like in Vox Machino with the necrotic damage. Her eyes are filled with a black goo and is running down her body. as she rips and rends and because of the end of her turn and she's still inside, I'm still gonna roll this. I probably just look absolutely horrified

and horrifying. Yeah, I'm horrified. 16, 20. Do you take that necrotic damage from the punches? I took what you just told me to take. This is the end here. So I'm down, whatever it is. 10.

26 points of necrotic damage. So I pry myself. out, fall out of the stomach onto the ground. As you collapse and you see as she rips out and the horrible necrotic magic caused her eyes to roll back and both Lofty and the massive undead wadjad, collapsed into the ground of bone and fragments blasts. It's the other one?

And can I use a reaction to, if I can see her? I would say you. Did I go to one? No, I go to zero. Okay. I would say that it's splier. It splatters across the undead withered flesh, the bone, the goo all scatter.

You see now it's like Yamcha, the meme. He's at the center of this crater of undead snake goo and oh my god. And I would say that you'd be able to see that easily, whoever would like to go up. Would 15 points of damage reduction keep you conscious? No, she had 14. Oh.

Well, yeah. She took 28, so 15 would literally do it. Just let her go to zero so I can heal her the full amount of my healing at zero. Okay. Come on, let's medigame this. It was too quick for man to see you. We're going into Genomechatepe fight, all right?

Let's fucking medicate this. I got, I got you. I am going- No, no, don't use that out of her. I'm barely, no, no. The moment we are done. That's the smelling salts. Quiet, quiet returns.

What's this? I'm gonna... I'm like, the saggy sag? I love the saggy sag. Ugh. I'm gonna do it at a, I think it's a fifth level, is what I wanna do. I'm gonna cast cure wounds on Lifty is all I'm gonna do.

It's tough to decide which level I wanna do it at. You feel the restorative power of anuvus as sand washes over you, but it's not this horrible, dry, It's coarse and gets everywhere. It's warm and comforting. It's warm and comforting. It feels like inside of a stress ball, very soft. It actually feels like that stress sand, like the, what is it, kinetic sand?

Ooh. It feels like kinetic sand. I can't say that. I picture being like when you take a nice swim at the beach and then you come back into the hot sand and cover yourself with it. Oh yeah, that's what I do. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. So nice.

As you were restored. Okay? I don't know, I guess. I'm doing, I don't do math, all right, so. You just max it out, don't you? Yes. How many eights, the eights are you rolling? 91.

Damn! Oh, no, I lied. Oh, no, I lied. Hold on, I think had something. She pops back up, regardless of how much it is. She pops back up, and it's like she literally went to the beach and is clotted in, like, drying sand because she was wet from the, Goo.

But I'm also 45, but I'm also going to use my bonus action because it would come around and I've got this thing up

for another nine points of healing. Thank you. And then roughly, so I have this up for a minute, I think, and we had,

I only had two rounds of combat. I would say, for that one. Given the... So I'd have seven more. Given how generous you were with me

in healing spirit on Grico, I will say, do whatever you'd like in the in the seconds that remain of your aura. Okay, so it'd be seven. So I'm going to do, how's Lifty feeling?

Lifty's looking good. I'm going to do one for me. So that's seven for me, because I'm really low, and I'm the cleric. The warm kinetic sand. I'm going to do one more for me, and that's nine. Big money. And I think that's good for now.

I'm going to do, what are you looking at? It's nine out of 170. And then so I'm going to do the next. Who else is anyone else looking bad? I'm all right. I'm missing like 40 hit points. Okay, so add nine. I'm at 66.

Give or take. Add 10. Add seven. Okay. Add nine. Are we out? No. And add six.

Now I'm out. Nick has more. What a word is. I'm gonna pop up. You didn't heal me at all? Wow. I literally just asked. And you said,

I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm like, chill. Everything's good. I think we should wait here for an hour. I will cast mass cure wounds on everyone. Using my staff. Love that.

If you feel the kinetic, the warm sand of something that you might purchase from a catalog and SkyMall, as your wound does heal up from this divine magic. You get seven more, everyone gets seven healing. Let's go. I couldn't think of the other,

what's like the other analog to like Sky Mall, but it's like at the mall. Like it's, it's- Sharper Image. I was like literally, I was trying to think of Sharperin for the past five minutes. Yeah. And you could not, it did not come.

What's the other one though? There's like something in. The, Brooks Stone were then also done. Trust me, I'm all about those ridiculous real price yet. Shlemmer and Shlemmer something, the catalog. Shlemma in the cooler, exactly right. No, it's like...

Shlemma in the cooler. And then you can go to the... Schlemer in the cooler, I barely know it. That's going on my dinner profile. And I'm going to use my pearl of power to regain a spell slot. Nice. You clutch the pearl.

What? The reverse of Brookstone is Spencer's. That's pretty accurate, yeah. Yeah. Bizarro's, bizarre. Bizarro, sharper image is fucking Spencer. That's amazing. That's incredible. Thank you so much.

It was terrible in there. I think it came out of nowhere. Well, at least it's dead, and now it can't sneak up almost during a fight with Onkatep. Wait, what if you'd like bring it back to life? It was undead. I knew I should have disintegrated that thing. I tried! How dead can an undead be?

I don't know. I don't think. I can disintegrate now, mechanically speaking. Can we just take it apart? Because if its bones aren't next to each other, I imagine that they don't just like... Well, I mean, at least if we could rip its tail off and pull out its fangs, what is it going to do, really?

Oh, yeah. I mean, all of those horrible necrotic souls that it was attacking us with. Yeah, it was crowded in there. Everybody's screaming the whole time. What if we cover its fangs and, like, healing lotion? And then when it tries to attack us... You're...

Slide... You're sad. you're right. Fine. You can do it, but if you take longer than 45 seconds, you're just playing with it. Well, now I'm not going to do it. I like to take my time. If the rubber leaks. The what? If you pierce the bottom of your rubber with the thing, well, that's why you always start to leak. It will start to leave two bags. Do you have another one? No, I only have the one. I just grabbed the giant rubber sack and the giant fucking treasure

trove. Oh, I want to keep going. You see down the hallway 20 feet, the Chamber of Time, which you're welcome to enjoy. So we're, hold on, we're in the Chamber of Time? No, no, it was directly ahead. This thing had been waiting, seemingly knowing that there were people lurking around,

but unable to find it. It seemed as if it had been perhaps waiting nearby. All right. I think we should keep going, and maybe if we have enough time, we can take a rest before we do. Anything really major? Yeah, we'll see if we find a safe spot, I guess, but for now we've got to keep going. I'll walk open the door and I'll push it. You push it, and you don't feel any immediate temperature change,

seeming that that was a feature of the chamber of the moon and the chamber of the sun. What you see, though, is incredibly strange. As you see the shimmer of light sheen around you, as you seem to be surrounded in glass. As the door closes behind you, as you see a pillar of sand pouring down and spilling out, as you see glass all around you form in a narrow funnel.

Princess Jasmine, where are you, Princess Jasmine. As you're in a giant fucking hourclones. Yes. As the sand stops. The sand stops where you're at before, there's a ring of stone of brick floor all around where this sand doom goes. That's what you say.

These are the days of our lives. So we're inside of the hour. Is it filling up with sand? It is filling up with sand. But you get the sense that it's not encroaching on where you're at. So you see that at the center, there is that center glass where both the top you look up and you can see there's glass that goes back out like a funnel and the sand is slowly pouring down. You see it's getting lower and lower and lower. And if you take some time, you'll realize that there's a sudden shift and it just refills and it continues.

So, Lone Guard called it correctly. We just killed Cobra Jafar. And now we're hunting for Princess Jasmine. Love it. This is our Disney crossover. No! That was really good. Thank you.

I enjoyed that. You know, I really messed up my prepared spells today. Unbelievable. So, when it, when the sand... When this... Badoo do-B-D-D-D-D-D-W... And we're eventually going to be crushed to death. So allow me to refraget it.

He said when it falls, then it's not like the top one is emptying, but it's not filling up the room. And then it's just refilling and starting over again. Yeah. So it's just a perpetual. It's getting smaller, but then it continues down and it refills up. So it's just, it's really only moving very slightly at the top. And the sand dune is getting bigger and a little bit smaller.

And a little bit smaller. We're not under any pressure to drown from sand. That is the intention, yes. What my question was leading to was like, was there, is there ever a point where where we're standing has no sand or when the sand above us reveals what's it above the sand and the next level? Well, he did say we could see it the floor, part of the floor, right? Brick.

Yeah, so it's all brick around you. It never gets covered in sand. Okay. So it continues to be a-biller. It continues to basically a dune, a large dune that goes up to a pretty large, I would say a pouring sand and you're able to see as the sand is pouring along the sides, you're not really able to see beyond the sand that's pouring down. Hey, what do we think?

Probably we should try to get through the sand nozzle. I'll look up. How big does the opening where the sand's coming out look? I would say that if you had to judge, it's probably like a good 10 feet. Oh, okay. It's a large pillar of sand. This is a very large column. Felix, you can mold all this. Yeah, well, on some days.

Oh. Where do you take jump? What the fuck? Well, no, so, I mean, I can move the loose sand a little bit here and there, but, you know, I mean, it's moving pretty quickly. I can try. I can just try to, like, pull it all down here faster and see if we can see. Yeah, clear it out. And see if we could, but I don't know if as soon as I clear it out.

if it's just instantly gonna, I don't know. I'll try. Do you think that potentially the door is beneath the sand you're standing on? I could clear that out too, or at least try. Maybe as soon as it starts to reset, when it's at its smallest, I can just move as much stand as possible

and see what we find. Well, let's start there. All right, I'll get ready. So I'm gonna wait until the sand resets, and it had its smallest in the bottom's up portion, and then very quickly just like, start moldy earth and like trying to move it as fast. as I can to see if I can see the floor underneath of the column.

I see. At first I want to see it. So you're going to aim towards the center of the doom? Yeah, like as soon as it's the smallest point, I'm going to very frantically be trying to dig it away just to see if I can see what's underneath the column of sand. That's poor. I would say that you're able to do that.

And with a time that you're taking here, you start to mold Earth as you're starting to blast sand away. You are unable to get down to the base of the center. But also, if you try by the edge of this, you see that there's a very fine grate that that is, makes up most of this chamber, similar to the scorpions and the spiders that had been falling in the other chamber. Okay. And it's basically re-feeling like a fountain of some kind.

Okay. We got some information. You do notice, as you're blasting indiscriminately, the sand blasts away and you see a kite in a shell and wriggling legs. As you blast away, as two types of bugs are amidst and crawling around and tumble down. And you see what look like camel spiders and the lion's as there with these massive fangs. And they're very clearly a Kirian Dyer versions of these things. The absolute worst horrible things you can imagine being in the dunes.

And they're blasted apart and moved around and they tumble down. And you get the sense that as soon as they are out of the sand, they immediately try to start burrowing back in. Oh, God, that's horrific. What, what is that? Okay, so don't go in the sand. That's what I took from that. All right.

Well, the other plan was to see if I could pull the sand out fast enough to see if we could see up through. But I don't know. It's with a shot, I mean, all right. Why's a try? So now I'm going to wait until this, the bottom part. is as large as it possibly is. Okay, yeah.

And see if I can mold the earth out of the top portion so we can see through. See if we get empty out the top before we fill it before. Okay, what size is mold earth? It's five cubic feet per action. Oh, I would say that's definitely enough. It's a shitload of sand. It goes to directly five feet tall,

as it's lowest. And so I would say, making an archa check to see how quick, like how precise can you be? Sure. I like that. I believe in you. Oh, twist it. Can I have given him inspiration or do you want to twist it first?

Let's twist it first. Let's twist it. You guys have a lot of twists. Thank you, Chad. Thank you, Chad. Because I get a really high bonus. It's just every number around that number is very high. Here.

25. 25. There it is. As you do that, you're able to blast the sand over the sand over the same. way, blip it down through, and you actually see for a brief moment a glow of that golden orange light. As you see, once again, fastened on the ceiling, similar to the chamber of the sun, the container filled with some sort of glowing things, difficult to see in this moment, but you see up ahead there is a platform around the other side or on the top side with the

door leading upwards into the pyramid. Good thinking. That was a great idea. Well, I mean, I don't really have that actually idea. I just knew you can move sand around, so it's only your idea, mostly. I just remembered you had an ability that you could do. How are we going to get up? Good idea. We'll chalk it up to Timor. How are we going to get up there?

That's another question, yeah. Well. Does anyone have any rope? I can, bo-bitty-booby-boo. Well, I'm sure we do, but then we have to, like, get all this bugs porn on us. And are they going to, like, I don't want another piranha. Did you just break the glass? I can try.

Sure. I don't see why not. I don't know what'll happen to the sand. I don't know. Will that like break the fabric of time? Anyone could suck into the astral sea. We'll probably all age extremely quickly. And for you.

We'll be aging, but you won't know it until you're dead. You'll look around in horror as we all become decrepit in front of your eyes, and you remain unchanging. And then you die. And then you'll die. No. I can't be aged. Hmm.

Oh. So break the glass. Just go up there and find out. Fuck around and find out. I don't know. What else? Are there any other options? I really don't want to go through the bug sand.

But if we have to, I, you know. Is that Andy or Felix speaking? It's a little of both. A little column A, little column A, little column B. I don't want to go into the bug sand. Oh, a little bit. Bugsat. You hear very faintly

if you can roll a perception check of 30 or higher and he wants to try. Creepy crawlers. I would like to try. I get a natural 20, so I believe that's 30. I think you actually get a 30. Wow. Natural 20.

Natural 20. And I use my... Yep, I absolutely get... So both Caprize and Iris, you hear, they're squirm. me and warped me in purple and green. I'm not using an inspiration for that. What the hell? Yeah, worth it.

What's that land? I can hear it. I didn't really understand. Creepy crawlers. All right. I am going to use my staff again. How wide is the thing? 10 feet.

Perfect. The hole? Yeah. I'm going to use it to create a giant scarab. And I'm going to attach a rope to its leg and have it fly up and block the hole so we can climb up and out if the DM

will allow it. Okay. Yeah. Because it would probably be unbothered by dire insects because it's a giant fucking scarab. Block what hole? Where the sand. But if it flies up

and uses its body, it can at least prevent some of the sand from falling down. So, I will say, For us to be able to... That's up to Mike. I don't think it can carry us. I say with that, if you get your scarred... That's the last of my staff, though, so...

And you wrap it around, and he flies out and blocks it. And basically, you're kind of like pulling through, like, when the earth comes in and kill Bill, and she climbs out. Yeah. And you're able to do that. I will say you'll be all able to make, um, rather than just the straight, oh, you're getting bitten. And you immediately just take poison damage.

I knew it. You can make an acrobatics or athletics check at advantage and the DC will be affected. Let's do it. So you're able to do that and it will help pull you all out. All right, I'm in. What do we roll? Equipatribatic Certhratics.

Thanks, Graham. 20. 22. I just rolled two natural 20s. Wow. Wow. And I have a plus 10. I got a natural 20.

Wow, you got a natural 20? I did. Oh, tables half. A third one. That's spicy. Well, all right. rolls are going to be garbage. Yeah.

We got past the garbage. The rich has been absorbing all the garbage this time. You time it just enough. The scarab, very familiar of having pulling a rope after it formed a makeshift boat. A sand. It served as a carriage

drawer beforehand. It flies up and all grab onto your rope and you are able to, with the power of its mighty wings, it burst through the sand, very familiar with. that. And you're able to rather than sink into the soft sand, you're able to just keep your feet

running quickly on the tops of this. The bugs not getting, as they're leaping up, except for Toa. Toa's at the bottom. Toa is at the bottom of this. And you see as you are definitely running on the top of this soft sand with the help of the

scarem. Toa is just being dragged, effectively. Way so deep. As you feel horrible, Bites and stings of dire camel spiders and lion ants is you're going to take some poison damage As he takes poison damage, I am looking out for a golden glow in any direction Let me just roll this real quick 10, 16 18 We're heading towards it. Oh, okay, we got flashed or something that we're not sure

21. There's 21 points of poisoning damage, retch It's probably the other part of the call as these Because each one of these rooms is a part of the call. Yeah, no, no, no. I just want to know what it is. Well, if you remember our visions, you would know exactly what it did.

I remember them perfectly in my other book. I haven't know. I have all managed, as Toa's dragged, you see that there are still some ant lions and Campbell's fighters clinging to his legs and his lower half, as you manage all to get on top

of the stone platform, the doors directly ahead of you. And you see up ahead that same ornate holder, perhaps a conopic jar might be normally stored in something like this. You saw something a little similar in Castle Bloomvale. However, it's empty and you see the swirling, looks like a sandstorm and a face within.

It's like the great hit film The Mummy, starring Brendan Fraser. From 1999. From 1999 and Rachel Weiss. As there's eye sockets and there's the face in the sandstorm. One of the few perfect movies in this world. At least probably better than Paramas.

Oh, wait. It is actually in this book. I open the door. As quickly as I can. You're going to be these tumbling spiders. You spider acrobatts. You do. One does a really sick cartwheel. As you kick it off, as it, it cartwheels down the sand and it dives in.

That was a very cool antline. Yeah. Did I miss the Golden Glow thing that was in this room? Yeah. Yeah, it was the face of the sandstone with the face. Sanson with the face. Gorgon Ramsey's. No, that's totally different.

I know what the next room is because of my notes. Didn't you listen to the story I told you last night? No, I don't want to stay asleep. I heard ducks off. What is that in my head? You continue onward. And now, presumably, without the threat, of the massive winged cobra.

Jafar. You're able to walk a little bit more at ease. But once again, the strange geometry of this place unsettles you. And it almost makes you lose your bearings. If it wasn't for the map that Vorok had sketched, you get the sense that you could be lost here for days, weeks, months, years maybe.

How did you know? As he continued. as you continue onward, and eventually you arrive at a door that, once again, is a double stone door, and you see what looks like a, the front facing face looking at you. as chamber of memory. We gotta be getting close. Hmm. Wait, so we are, we can open this door?

Yes, it's the same as all the others. I will open it. You open it. And you are in a rectangular room. As you see, as the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, there's a actual abrasure in here. And it is glinting on brilliant color all over. this, all over this place, as you get glints of greens and reds and brilliant oranges,

as you do not see any glowing golden orange, though, of the caw that you've come to expect, but you now realize that you're in a temple, or what appears to be the facsimile of a temple. and there is no door that you can see. But what the light is catching on are stone tiles that make mosaics all along the side of this. However, you see the story of Anthrophton, from him being a priest of Anubis

all the way to the most recent one You see the life story that you had seen in your vision, one after the other. And the last scene in this mosaic that wraps around the entire wall is Ancatap, sitting on the throne, a winged serpent beside him, and rows and rows of mummies and skeletons and other undead creatures facing forward. But then you see there's a large patch that's completely bare next to it. Like the future? Or reserved for future possibilities? And oh, pardon me. And you see on the floor there thousands of small tiles of varying all sorts of colors.

So is it to the, like if we're looking in order, what you do the next one? Yes, the next scene is blank. is blank. And you see that it's not perfect, right? You see that, you know, it's a bit of jagged and fragmented. Maybe just that blank spots the door? Maybe. I try to push on the blank spot. Does not budge. Nice. Does this mural or whatever you want to call it mosaic, does it look like any of the visions we had seen while looking at all of the the caw visions.

Does it play out like any of the scenes we'd seen previously? Yes. Oh. You get the sense that all of the scenes that you had seen have effectively, this seems to be the scene where he had awoken. And you see the seal beneath his, the swirling seal of trapping the chain god

beneath the center of his chest. Okay. And he is just sitting in his eternal place as the Pharaoh, the dark lord, imprisoned for all time, presumably in heart care. So would we be able to think about that vision we saw and figure out what's missing? Or like Toa was insinuating, is it potentially something that hasn't happened yet?

I guess my question is, like, when I look at it and I say, oh, I recognize some of this. But wait, this thing is, should be here. Do I feel that way or does it feel like, you know, this, everything that I'm looking at happened in the vision and there's, there was nothing really missing. I would say make an intelligence check. Straight.

Which one do I choose? I think I would go with me. Lines. It was almost so good. Straight up intelligence check. I add five. I got 11 because I'm the dumbest wizard on the planet. You get the sense of something's missing here.

I just can't put my finger on it. I'm just playing in the dirt. I feel like we've seen this and I just don't know what's missing. Hey, look, it's me. You're able to, yeah, put together and you're able to make a little face. I mean, after this, we know that he's ruled for thousands of years. He may be when he made a deal with Vorok. Maybe.

Maybe. Maybe if you're just a gross vulture guy with these little tiles, it'll be enough. Yeah, I'm not very artistic. I feel like that might have to be... Caprice. I'm willing to try it. I mean, isn't he seeking death, though? Isn't oblivion what he's after?

Well, that's a really good point. What if it's just a bunch of, like, dark tiles? There's nothing. Oh. Yeah, it's already nothing. Well, I mean, like, but we make it... Nothinger? Yeah.

But they're all different. colors. How do you make nothing out of a lot of things? Pick out all the dark ones. Yeah, all the darkest ones we can and like try to put together like a void, like a picture of oblivion. Like a mess. How do you imagine nothing? Like nothingness. Right? Like, just blankness. But not like a blank wall. It would less be a little fool. Yeah, like try to think like how do you, how do you draw oblivion? I got it. I'll help you pick out the tiles if you're looking for particular colors. Yeah, I need very dark or very bright.

Nothing in between. No Goldilock tiles. On it. And we'll start to start sorting them. You do that. Once they've gathered them up, I will start putting the tiles into place. So they just...

Yeah, they seemingly, almost magically adhere as you do that. You're able to kind of slide it around to almost like a fantasy magnet situation. Okay. Just for ease of use. Fringe magnets. I will, you know that the classic like Egyptian eye

with a little like swoosh on the side? Yeah, classic, right? Yeah. I will do that on the wall, but I'm also doing like the classic scientific representation of what a black hole looks like where you have that fucky you, like annihilation, emptiness in the center and it's bulging out, but it is creating this eye,

and I'm trying to think of his perception of mortality and immortality, and I'm trying to pour myself into what I understand his emotional state to be in. It is an expression of my understanding of the representation of him. Look out my in. Is that it? This is, I love that we hope. I would set this puzzle with fucking, like, interpret. Just write, just type like, black.

I would say just make a dexterity check straight. Don't have your proficiency. That means we're not on the right track. This dexterity is pretty. Yeah, but who's a great idea? Just see how dexterous you are. Great idea. Even if it doesn't work out?

Six. Yeah, that's what I'm doing. You spend a long time watching Caprice as he finishes filling in the last bit. And you hear, and you wait for the door to open, and then all of a sudden, all the time, it's falling out. They didn't even save all the hard work you did. You always didn't save. You know that. I mean, we didn't. Oh, I'm sorry. All that hard work. I thought we were running to something. I really put my heart and soul.

I thought it was another really good idea. I really did. Fuck. Why don't we try near our original idea, not some interpretive bullshit? Can you say what's on the mural again that we can see? Yeah, basically you see the same. same, him Ancatep as a priest of Anubis, him sitting

beside Husukkah, the boy Pharaoh, the treachery, the murder, him wandering into the desert to find the crown, the sandstorm consuming the land of reed and lotuses, and him waking up as

as the mummy lord Pharaoh in this business. It's basically that. Why don't we try drawing him as a huge? That's another great idea. We know what he looks like. Do you recall? You're probably pretty good at this.

Drawing? Well, not really drawing, but like muraling. I've never made a mural in my life. I'm already clipping the pieces. Didn't they make you do like art stuff and your lady princess bringing up courses? They didn't make me do anything. So that's why you are the way you are.

And you put the color. Oh, a light bright? Well, not, all sort of, yes, am I? And you light the candle behind it and it all glows. I love that. I was the one where you apply a hot iron onto it and it all fuses together once you're done. But with beads.

By the time this conversation is over, I've completed like a rough approximation of Ancatep as a human on this ball. I would say make a, um, a human check. Uh, I would say make a dexterity check straight. 22. 22. You see as it's as the rough, there is a rough approximation of him as a human.

But there's, as you fill it up and it feels like you're getting close, you feel like you are closer. Because as it finishes, there's a, you feel like there's, it's going to, and there's a pause. As all the tiles spill off. That's what's getting better.

Fucking end of solitaire, you know. So what if we... Who said that? Draw him but dead. Did someone say that? No, we're going to draw a Belivian. Just get all the dark... I'm just going to...

I'm just going to go. I'm just going to throw up there. So it's this sort of... Just a super dark, near black mural. Pure blackness. Oblivion. You see that... It starts to shift

or starts to glow a little bit and react. And what I'll say, as you do this, what it's react to is a vaguely humanoid shape and also the color of black. And it seems to react.

It seems to want to draw some sort of humanoid shape and the presence of the black stones or tiles is important. So we've noticed that as like a pattern. Yeah, I would say that that would be just as you continue. All right. All right, we're getting closer. Okay. I know exactly what it is.

I take all the black guys. I start putting them up. And we'll see. Don't say it. The road. I'm not going to do it. But I'm going to try to make this, this, like, really shitty-looking version

of this hunched vulture man, pure blackstone, to see if Warrock is the trip. I thought you were going to do Hector Man. I don't know. You finish the tile, and it looks like a very crude approximation. You're not sure, like, is that, like, a Raven man?

Like, he's mostly purple. Like, his beak. His bleak is black. Yeah, that is, that does work. And that's the only bit of black in the whole piece, maybe his nails. And once again, it falls down if it taking a good amount of time. This just really isn't my strong suit. I'm going to put the pieces up and draw the, like, the image of him surrounded by black background and little black X's over his eyes.

You once again do that a little bit more gracefully than Toa, and you feel really good about this one. And he's dead. He's dead, dead. And then it... He thought that was going to do it. I'm going to lay back on the ground and just kind of like close my eyes and just think for a little bit. I propose that we sit here for an hour maybe and consider that opportunity. Well, it's either that or starved a death.

What? Well, if I can't go any further, we're just going to be stuck here for us. There's no going back. That's certainly right. Oh, I guess that's true. I would say that you've almost been here an hour. So if you continue on this path, you might be willing to enjoy long rest, or short rest, rather. Oh, sure does. I need to check my notes.

I'll also check my brain. The call. The piece of ca here, you do not see the whole thing. Oh, right. What was the piece of cough? I did look through those notes. It was. There was a fragment of memory.

memory. Yeah. The chamber of memory here. A pyramid? Oh, big black pyramid. No. We're in the blue what are we? We're in the gold. We're in the gold. But that doesn't mean that's wrong. A limestone pyramid. That could be straight up. Oh, no, that was a small pyramid. A humming ruin. It was the one after the sandstorm. This is the seventh room, isn't it? No, so the seventh room, but it was the seventh call that you witnessed. I only have six con that we've witnessed. That isn't me. Isn't you?

He's just basically a cat. Like that's our... So, unfortunately, this makes me feel really upset because we came in here and might say it was the cough memory. I'm like, I'm pretty sure he just told us the session that I was the cove memory, but I don't want to call him out on fucking us, so I'm not going to see anything about it.

She's like, I never swam if you tried. Anything. And she's like crazy. She's like, no. No, I'm good. I've never done this in my life. You see, toe up? I need to make a dexterity and your proficiency, because you're giving it all you got.

I'm looking at him. The face in the sandstorm was number six. Like the next one has to be me, but like. I think we need. Oh, you're going too fast. Give her staff, give her staff. No, no, no. This is what I'm gonna go.

Okay, fine. This is what I do. Hold on a for your camera. I need to see how well of a good of a job. You do. Give her a tail. Can you please roll dexterity out of your proficiency? This is giving it your all.

Oh, yeah, look at that. 20, wait, add my proficiency? Woo! Yeah, you got both. You are slotting it in. And you hear the, it's the same sound as the same sound that you've heard time and time again, pushing out all the tiles, but then you see,

and the door literally starts to move. Oh, it was you, it was you. Well, shit. Good job, Dola. This is what I get for trying to spare Mikey's feelings. I'm like, oh, he fucked up. We'll talk about this. Aventure is as the

mural slides and there's a very dark chamber and a door beyond. And in between you and the door there is no glow but you see the empty ornate. Oh shit. Should you try stepping in there?

No. What? No. I just to see what happens. Don't even look at that. If the things that we thought before were actually his car pieces than

if the things that we saw before were actually his car pieces Iris, are you feeling okay? You're not feeling any kind of pull, are you? We don't want to mess with the cop pieces. Some of his car pieces were huge.

I'm very tired. And weirdly shaped car pieces. The one was brilliantly radiant. It almost blinded me. I really wanted to reach out and touch the copies, but I didn't want...

Oh, yes, I'm remembering that one room. Yeah. She'll never touch another man's copies. I'll, like, hold on to Iris as you walk by just in case she gets, like, you know, mind control the container. Ah, yes, snoop me.

You all walk by, and if Iris takes a step next to the holder, she passes by and uninterrupt him. She takes a step past the whole day. And then another step. And then another.

And I take the potatoes and then I eat it. A little bit of anime dub humor for him. I love that. Good stuff. Well, shit. Is that duh? Yeah. So, I mean, now what?

If this is it, what does the map say? How much farther do we have to go? I mean, is the next, are we just like there? Let me take a look. We took a short rest. And you enjoy the short rest. Arcane recovery is my drug.

Does my maximum HP reset? No. No? Okay. I am going to use some hit dice, though. Yeah, me too. Yeah, I'm going to use another one. I should only be 46 as best to all here.

So I feel 13. 16. 11. No, true. We'll do it. Actually, just one more. 13. 10.

10. 8. Here we go. Come on. Pull here. And the door closes behind you, presumably with Toa's beautiful mosaic art, forever finishing this beautiful mosaic. Oh, that's nice.

I feel a little proud about that one. I don't recast me a drummer myself. I'm using half of my hit dice. Eight hit dice for me. Damn. It's over half. I used three or four and I remember. Five for me.

To get myself up to take a real quick coffee break just because we're sort of resetting here. We're not sure you hold off. Let's hold off a little button. Okay. I just have blue-by-dos real quick. Oh, my God. Perfect for the setting. Perfect for the setting.

We'll continue down to next. We'll move forward if there's a point of machine. And you get higher and higher. And you get the sense that you're nearing that the hallways go and they're turning sharper and sharper. You know that the hallways are not able to be much longer as the pyramid gets higher and higher.

And as it's turning, you are. are entering towards the last chamber that's marked. And so that was kind of my question, is the map basically show like, this is it, we're getting close to the- Yeah, you get the sense, basically it goes to the top, and then it basically goes back down

to where his private chambers are that looks out to a grand balcony, where perhaps personal chambers are. Okay. And you just keep turning left, and soon there's no more additional pathways to go. There's only one path forward. As you're, it gets in the hallways get narrower to where you get the sense that if that giant snake thing could make it up here, they would have to squeeze in an incredible amount.

And eventually you are faced by a double door that has a large Knappin jar on it. And it says, Chamber of Death. Oh, I don't like the sound of this. We have to keep going, right? We don't want to go in there. That's absolutely right. Virus? Yes, Caprice.

I imagine he probably can sense your presence and that this might not help, but I feel strongly, if we can do anything to protect you during this moment, that it should be done. So I'm gonna turn myself into you. I don't want to offend you. I wouldn't be offended. I'll bought myself and alter self transform into a person. perfect likeness of Iris. I am so beautiful.

Look at me. Oh, look at my ass. I know. Can you check out my nails? Oh, the one you fixed. See, Caprase? Look at it. I'm fantastic.

Oh, my goodness. Oh, I know. It's beautiful. Let's touch them together. Iris. Yes. I love you, Iris. I love you too, Iris.

Oh, my goodness. This is the greatest moment of my life. Can we do this every day? It's a fool, um, get it. I can't wait to see him be like, wow, I never knew. That being... You? Oh, well, that means.

That being said, I do contain part of his soul. When we fight him, I'm sure he is going to be focused on me. And so I will need your help. Um, you know, just do what I normally do and protect me on. something. Well you know what I normally do is I turn into a Tyrannosaurus rex and in those moments I have an additional pool of hit points that I can draw from in order to survive. If you, if that should happen in the middle of combat to you then I would recommend that you just let it happen you know. You want to turn me into a Tyrannosaurus Rex. I well anything with a large

pool of uh of uh meaty hit points that uh can survive. Vitality you could say vitality. That's a really good idea actually. And I'll use my ancestors to protect you every time I can. I cough up a hairball. You could just think of it as there being more of you to love. Like 20 feet more. It's not the size. It's the lack of fur. Well, the good news is, is that T-Rexes actually had some level of short, fuzzy feathers that were kind of like fur. If you want something good fur, then I could do gorilla, a giant ape perhaps. But if you want the maximum amount of vitality, then perhaps a giant whale would be for your preference. We are in a pyramid. I would suffocate. No, no, I'm sure the chamber is an illness.

No, whales are actually mammals. They breathe air through their blowhole. But not forever. They might dry out and die from other reasons. We're in a desert. I mean, yes. There is no air more lacking in moisture than the air we are currently in. Honestly, look, I know whales. I'm saying you can breathe, is my point.

You might die, but you could still breathe. It'll take longer than a minute. I could spit in your blowhole. Please, I would like to go. Oh. Please do that. And if you turn into a Tyrannosaurus, you'll be voiced by John Goodman. And that would be bad, man.

Oh, what did he be voiced by John Goodman? If you must turn me into a Tyrannosaurus X, I will accept it. And at no circumstances, it is Lofty allowed to spit into my any hole. And please protect me. Do you want my cloud giant sack? I think you should keep it. I am going to be being attacked. If you need to administer healing, you might have to smother me in your milky white goo.

Why do you keep supporting the bottom of that sack? It hangs really low when he lets go of it. Watch. Oh, God. Like it perfectly visualized this. Like, well, thank you manga artists. God. This was supposed to be a moment where we really bonded as friends.

And I just feel that we should go kill this fucker. But we're doing the way in a lot here, right? No, the Tyrannus horse wrecks. The most health is the best, I believe. What about like an elephant? Like a really big one? An elephant probably has like 19. really has like 19 hit-boards.

What about a dire donkey? What about a dire elephant? If you don't... If you help, you like kill everyone. The Tyrannosaurus Rex. It's up to you. Yes, the Trinosaurx. Only if you're looking rough.

Yes. Okay. Do you know how he gets the car out of you? No. But I hope it's not painful, and I hope he doesn't succeed. I don't think he will We won't let him, right?

No, we're going to give him everything we got All right, here we go Are we ready? I'm ready Should we do like a little hug maybe? And I just... Well, she's here, so everyone else, let's go. All right, yeah, fine.

Just in case. I mean, we're going to be fine, but just in case. All right, good luck, everybody. We got this. Good luck. All right. May his car be weakened or something.

You kick them right in the cot piece. You open. That would be me. The door, and it's just darkness. Oops. It takes a moment for your eyes to adjust for there is no lantern or a torch or brazier laid in this chamber. And you enter a tomb. It's relatively small.

But it's probably a good three feet. four feet of a walkway, and on either side, there are three long sarcophagi in a row, each one with lids a jar. So six total? Six total. You know what this means? Not the top of my head, no. There are six of those and six of us. Wait, I think you miscounted. Am I forgetting someone? Oh, you've probably forgot before. But that's good news, Toll.

I mean, they're not for us. It's good. I forget that tooth. Actually, unfortunately, I hear you. There's probably six things that came out of those in here. So maybe it's not good news. Well, maybe it's like in those mob movies where they, you know, you show up in the woods and there's already,

six holes dug for you, you know? I guess it could be some sort of an intimidation tactic, but that's fine. We're not intimidated. All right, we should look inside maybe because they're all kind of practically open. Do they look different at all? No. They do not. Are they decorated or or neat in any way?

They are very modestly decorated. They seem to be, all of them seem to have kind of a skeletal mummy-like, face, adorned of some type, perhaps royalty, perhaps nobility, but nothing overly gaudy. They seem to be simple, and there's actually large gap. It's actually quite off, quite ajar. As you look into each one, and there's just darkness, emptiness. Nothing within besides a few bit of sand, some fragments of stone brick. I'd dig in my bag of hold me. I pull out a lantern and I'm shaking

I'm going to turn it on however it works and anything that's invisible will get revealed I don't know how to say the thing you see ghosts your light illuminates this room

and it's the smallest of all the chambers that you've been in still sizable and but there are just six sarcophagy with all of them with with uh lids a jar i'll go to the perimeter of the room like it's just wall in all direction there don't doesn't appear to be any additional door the ceiling looks solid now what i kind of thought you know it just be like in here what you're gonna look at us

i'm gonna do it i mean it shouldn't hurt hold on wait wait wait very cheerful and I'll go up right behind you with my spoon ready. So I want to speak for like Scooby-Doo. Yeah. So I'm going to be like on my tippy toes. You are. A tip. And just like very all looking over with the lantern.

And right behind me there's a ghost tiptoe again. This podcast is brought to you by our Patreon.

pierce through like magical darkness, does it pierce through everything has a feeling? Let me check it. It's a lantern now. Vailing. Wow. Invisible creatures and objects are visible as long as they're in the lantern's bright light. That's hilarious. You can use an action to lower the hood reducing it to dim light, but I'm going to keep a bright light. Because I want to fill the whole room. I would say just because it's very fun, you are very Scooby-Doo look over and And as you lean over and peer in,

the magical lantern light fills this sarcophagus. And you see a skeletal jackal head, almost leap out at you. As you step back and you realize now that there's an ornate holder and swirling within of orange, goldish orange, you see a conopic jar with a skeletal jackal head

top within. So is the the canopic jar is like incorporeal like the other it's exactly the same as I'm gonna like

put my hand through it to confirm. As you put your hand through it it fills you with horrible uh I don't as actually none of you have touched no no

no. No. As you're not. going to take. What the fuck, Joe? Oh my God. Your eyes start to see with that horrible, the black goop as you take 20 points of Necrotto-Dame.

Jesus. You take 75 points. Yeah, right. Oh, no, touch it. Ah! Ah! Why would you touch that? I just thought someone had touched it before.

I didn't know who did that. Okay, all right, so we know not to touch them. Oh, I don't feel so good. Here, check the wrist. All right, fine. Don't touch anything. Yeah, I'm not, I, don't talk anything. I don't know why.

You know, I trust you. I'll head over to the next one and period. Empty. Empty. The next. Empty, empty, empty, empty. They're all empty. Except for that one.

There must all empty ones. You know what that means, Felix? I still don't think. for us. And even if they are, we're not intimidated, remember? This isn't intimated. We're not intimidated. Five of us. Thank you, Loney, you know, thank you, welcome. Welcome. As we have Scooby-Doo, mummy, K-words, Classics, feels right. As a swamp thing goes out, I'm here, too. Band, Robin, the three stooges. Welcome, Tate from the Harle, boat trovers.

Thanos, what are you doing here? When we finally unmask the swamp creature, it's actually just a Gus from the prime house. No, it's just us kids! I want to count away with it too. It would work for you meddling middle-aged adults. And your little bluebird, too. I'm not even 23. Gosh, you look old to me, you must have terrible skewer.

some terrible skin can routine. I didn't spend some time in the night Nels. That will do it. It's fruits. I will never pass up the operative. If you can pass me that ball, I would swear.

Every time. Every time. All right. We checked them all. There are empty sarcophagi. I mean, no, I don't think they're for us. I mean, I just don't think that he would resort to cheap intimidation tactics like that. They got to be for something else.

Besides, why would he put us in tombs? She's the only one that means anything to him. Yeah, if anything, he would just turn us into part of his undead army. It's to send a message. He's going to put us in the, not the ground, but the, you know, the stone. Well, he's not. Everything's going to be okay. So do it, we'll have any continue?

Oh, let me see the map. Oh. Oh, I have it right here. Unless those are the doors and we have to get it. have to get in to go past the room. I want to, you mentioned that it goes back down. Yeah. So with that knowledge,

I'm going to sort of check, and then I'm going to, like, check the floor to see if there's any, like, trap doors. Make an investigation check. Felix, why don't you check the floor? No, I'll help you. Yeah, help. Well, oh, jeez. Hey, let's go. So it's a 21.

Let me check. He broke the cards. No, no, just 20. It's 20. I was the curse, though. You press in and you spend, and you are sure that there's no, you're checking the floor,

there's no trap doors that you can find. I actually just feel like I really reversed how I was feeling, and I do think we should get in the caskets. Oh, we're not going to willingly get it in. I think we do. I think that's the door. If we all get in and close it, like, this is the chamber of death.

Oh, and we have to pretend that. die. Yeah, if we're all like dead, then maybe it'll sloop us through the floor of something. But if we all get separated? Oh, if, no, what if it's like swimming time? And you all get in and it'll be like, it's all gonna fly back and we're gonna, you know, it's open. Tella, what the fuck are you talking about? The big thing applies! The idea what you're talking about, tell us. Is that what people do on your island? It's okay.

You have to stop watching these. They keep giving you nightmares. and you keep waking me up in the middle of the night. I can't live like this. I wanted to mention it earlier, but it didn't seem like the time. Iris is such a huge fan of Harry Porter, and yet she has a problem with a wise old man, raising a young boy purely to get killed in the end for the greater good. I feel like this really isn't the time to bring something like that out.

I'm just saying, Look at her. It was just a kind old man. You meant the best, but, you know, Harry was not Fumble Snores' son. I guess that's fair, but still, it's the same premise anyway. I'm not getting the sarcophics. What he did was he raised him to be able to handle it at the end,

unlike Zern, who just abandoned by him. Yeah, I really feel like we don't have time for it. I start climbing into the sarcophysis. Can we please just talk about this later? Yeah, I already go. I lay down in the sarcophagus. You do that. You lay down the sarcophagus.

You're yelling at each other as you all lay. I'm not getting into the fucking sarcophagus. Grace, you have to. Let's see what happens to them. I say first does anything happen else? Yeah, as we lay down. Well, it's three of us, I guess. You lay down and it's cold and it's dark.

But you look up and you can see past the tilted lid up up to the roof of this chamber. I'm gonna move my lid closed. Okay. You hear the... as it completely locks and there's a, and it seems to depress a little bit into the ground, this sarcophagus.

As Luffy, you are inside the sarcophagus and have dropped a little bit. Can we hear her on the inside, or is it like really hard to hear? It's difficult to hear. You can hear like, but it definitely like we noticed why didn't I. I would say you heard the,

grinding of stone beyond anyone who's out would see that it's slightly indent. Let's get this over with. I'm going to close my own lid. You do that? I'll do the same. And from the inside, I light just a little flame so I can see from the tip of my finger. How wrong do you think it's going to take for them to suffocate to death? Ten, ten minutes?

It's a horrible way to go. Yes, it seems very awful. I'm going to miss them. I am too. Surely there's some other way. I wish that there has been time for us to say. say goodbye, but they're so quickly pulled the psychophagus shut, I...

I think it's already begun. Yes, I think they're dying now. I wish we'd had more time. Fluffy. I'll never be able to tell her that I actually liked her. I can hear her screams now. What would you like to do in the meantime, Caprice? Well, she would we find for the actual solution, do you imagine?

Yes. Okay, well, let's continue to look around and not get inside a V. Sarkovina. Yes, great idea. Almost put a fuck. I'll assist you, Iris. I will continue to look for literally any other solutions you're getting into this point. Investigations and taking advantage.

Tso already got up me up 20. Yeah, but you know, don't spoil their fun. That's fair. Okay. The best I could do. Possibly investigate. I am trying desperately to avoid the possibility of having to get into the sarcophagy with a 24. You are desperately looking and after a good ten minutes of searching, you're like, there's fucking nothing else. Well, it's been ten minutes. It doesn't look like there's anything else and our friends are already dead. It's just you and me now. Deathly still. Comes over the room.

Should we? I don't know what to do. If you like the... I lean on one of the sarcophagy. If you like the answer is right into my nose. Have you ever felt like there's some connection, perhaps, with your car piece? That you might be able to use it to solve this problem.

No. You don't think you can leverage it in the final moments of this puzzle room that we're in now. No. Well, fuck. Do you have Pachisi by chance? just this deck of cards would you like to play some gin rummy

well we might accidentally summon a dragon you broke both out well you always always say fuck it well pick a card in your card well let's see my beautiful new nail chooses you

what is it we launch it after into the world and suddenly a priest and two acolytes show up. The illusions of those. They'll be around for a short period of time. They look like Scooby-Doo versions of like cheap Hanabar bear. They're like, Oh!

Well, this isn't very useful, was it? They fill the room they are screaming. Oh. Help! We're looking for a way out. Find them. Well, shit. Oh.

The sound is. driving me insane. Fuck a time getting into this sarcophagus and I'm getting in for the way. Oh, shit. Jump in and rock. It sings in, Oh,

what the fuck up? I swear to God. I swear to God. The acolyte say, great singing voice. Breezed. There's another smaller one that's like singing the same thing back at him,

but slightly off-key. Thank you. the joke rich. I'm going to have to have to help my friends. I'm going to have to help them. I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it. Let's go. Get in the sarcophagi. Just get in.

Just get in. It's fine. It's fine. Everything is going to be fine. Okay. Just get in. Just get inside. Just get in and then close the lid and it'll be all fine. Everything. I get in and I do okay. You should summon the fucking dragon.

There's also a version where we summoned one of us, which was really fucking fun. I get in and I, shaking with as much fear as I've ever had, closed to it. As it slides over here, oh, I'm in there going, what the fuck is that?

I'm trying to think I made a bad position. Is that Capriest? Why is he? right now. And you, you, uh, you all hear the, as you, you hear the grinding in the sarcophagus of all of yours. Each and every one starts to sink down into this chamber. And suddenly you feel the stone slab beneath you

in an instant, fall away. And you draw. And as you descend into darkness falling, you suddenly feel a glow of dark magic all around you.

As you feel dark mummy-like bandages, start to wrap around you and cover you and restrain you and you lose control of your body. As you are completely wrapped up, just your face is exposed in this mummification process, as suddenly in a flash of what looks like blue moonlight,

for an instant, as you each fall into a very plush and gilded chair and stare at what looks like a banquet placed ahead of you. And what looks to be covered in the most beautiful, bountiful feast out of something from Neckbet, with all the most exotic fruits and meats and breads and sweets, pictures of wine and exotic-looking liqueurs, you see it spread out across a large table in an beautifully gilded chamber that looks out to a balcony shimmering with the bright light of the full moon and the first sound you hear

as as you realize that there's three of you on one side of this table and two on another and in the empty seat beside you hunched and rotting away you see Vorok the Carrion King devouring the food on the table and you then see your attention is drawn to the head of this table.

As you see sitting, his staff beside him, a large curve blade on the other side, the bandages clinging his withered mummified flesh, the empty but beautifully adorned and gilded mummy lord Akhtep. And you see what withered lack of lips he has, almost peels back into a green. in and he says, welcome to my feast. So we are still wrapped up and we're stuck in these chairs now. Yes. Our faces are showing.

Can we even like look around? I would say you'd be able to look around you. Okay. Yeah. You all sit at a table and you see that there are skeletal mummified servants. that are reaching out and placing food onto your plates for you. As it's the three of you that had all gone in first on one side. And then the two irises and then the two irises and Vorok on another side.

Oh, well, so that worked. Can we talk? And so you look as, Akitap has extends his hand to the banquet, and you are, you are able to speak as he leans back. And there seems to be a bit of amusement upon seeing two eyegisyses. Um, let us go. You can't do this. Most technically you can, but will you really-

He already did, Toa? Why can't I do this? You are in my domain, are you not? You brought my card. to me, but I did not know that I had ate pieces of God. Pieces of eight like a pirate. That reminds me of a song. Can it, does it sound or seem with how he gesture

and he knows which one's real and he's not? You're not sure of that. As Iris says that, and he looks at you and his eyes narrow, and they looks at you. For the sake of this, I like both of you to roll deception check. Ooh. Don't fuck me know. What a most trust knows is dice.

Because it's beautiful. That's why. Can I use a twist of me? Yeah. Thank you, Pat. We have plenty. Thank you, chat. 16.

So bad. 25. He looking very proper. He narrows his eyes. This is a trick. find funny. Is that right? He looks back and forth. It is very clear he has no idea what just watch. Oh. And I would say that this, recall, this brings forth a memory that you had heard, perhaps, because it's been a long time. It's been two, two months. That while he was able to

use the grounding power of Warwick to kind of seek out his car in the prime material plane, in here, it's a prison. There's every bit of strong. you're searching for the cause entirely been like people searching for something. Oh, shit. And I'll say that with the power that Caprice has, he was able to make a perfect duplicate. Well, I guess I'll just ask the awkward question. What is Vorok doing here? You see Voron.

He's like, I was hoping we would see each other again, seeing the food here. He's delight. I'm an honored kid. We're going to kill the river. As he begins to wolf down more food, and Ancatev looks at him, and it lingers. And you can see that there's pure malice. And he does not care for Vork at all.

As he just simply leans back in his gilded chair and says, Yes, and the man that are speaking, he is a guest. none, all the same. Well, given what's a feast, I hope that you have a new bisque prepared. I never thought you'd ask. And you see as a literal bisque has been put on your plate

as both of your plates, as skeletal and mummified servants attempts to feed you. Like all of us? Yeah. They try to... Cuts of meat, fruit, pieces of bread.

We're locked in. Do we have the ability to eat if we wanted to? Does it feel like we'd have the... Not right now, no. Okay. You see that that's why there are other servants there. And you can kind of want...

It's just like, looks... It's just empty eye sockets, and it's kind of like... No. Thank you. No. No. Yeah, I do the baby, like...

And you just try to play airplane. I'm like, mm-hmm. Are you not hungry after everything? of Bentham. Killing! Hey, God! Should be hungry war. You know,

Vorok doesn't like you at all. He wanted us to kill you. You, uh, you see him. He's like, as he looks. He was very upset. We saw him in the library, looking for ways to,

to bring horrible harm upon you. Yeah, that's exactly right. He did. You see as Ancatep looks at Vorok, who bites onto a very large tomato or fruit and runs down his gullet, like in Return of the King. We're going to keep using that reference. As he swallowed and sworep. Weaves a hand dismissively. And yet, it was not his map that brought you here to the feast was a nod. Do you think that it matters to me who hates me?

And who does not? Do you know how many people uncle them? The crimes I have committed. The guilt and sorrow I feel every day. Living for millennia, a life that none of you can comprehend. Do you know what ways out my conscience? It's never too late to change your path, to change your ways, to become part of the light. And what do you suggest? After all that has happened, after the pieces that are moving,

After I have everything that is to come, do you expect me to let go of my quest for peace? I expect you to embrace it. If you want peace, then you should spread good in this domain. You have, look at the power you command. You could do great things. No one would hate you, and you could welcome death as a friend instead of a soul.

Death is, my friend. War from the thoughts has unleashed upon me, do you not think that such torture is inhumane and cruel? Even for someone who has done what I have. Death will never be your friend until you understand and how to spread peace among your people. Yeah, if you die, what do you think is going to be waiting for you? You haven't made up for anything bad that you've done in this life. Darkness! I'm with him.

How do you know that's what waits for you? You don't. Anything is better than me. Onker tip. Why do peppers make such great archers? Why? They hover narrow. Boom, that's hilarious.

As his withered flesh peels back and just see, like, skull. And with each, it's like that fucking, also from War of the Rings, Return to the King, to the mouth of Sauram a little bit. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That guy's a huge fucking mouth. Yeah, it's not like that.

It's not a crazy huge, but... So if you want dead, then just live a sad and we'll kill you. If you kill me, I will have done again and again. And he pulls down his vestments, and you see that humming seal, eternally beating on his torso. torso, as he raises it back up. There is also unfinished business I have before I meet oblivion, but I need my car restored, and with the power that my associate. And he, his lips curl, as he looks at rock, has brought.

Use the other prisoner in my domain to destroy those who do not wish to, enjoy the bounty. Please, about a gear. If I wanted to poison you, I would have done it a long time ago. You know, I think I'm fine. I've had an entire bowl of pistachios. Those are very feeling. Yes. And it's quite the workout to getting the shells off. I'm really just not hungry.

Are you really going to trust him? Oh, nah, my head. You already said, we heard you. You said that he was a failure. He failed you, and that's why you rose the dead army. So do you really think that he's not failing you now, tricking you? You know he doesn't like you.

He's brought us here, but do you really know why? Can you trust him? He turns towards you as large Pharaoh. I know that there's a name for the Pharaoh high-dress thing. Does anyone- I can't remember up to my head? It's rising far taller than he is. turns to you. Look at him.

Do it now. Frost. You actually look at these feelings were hurt. And it just goes back. Get wrecked. Dumper. The Nimes. Or nemes.

The nemes. Oh, boy. As you see, the wither and the rot that is on his, uh, on his form is very clearly, uh, done more. as he withers and you see that there's, um, Iris, you're next to him.

I'd like you to make a perception check for me, please. She's got through Warlock. Yes. Uh, 21. 21. You see that there's the strange pestilence and disease that he has. You just see his robes are almost tattering away as well. And then you see that his flesh is almost like bulging occasionally.

Oh. And it's a little bit chaotic. And you see the lines on his flesh, especially deep within his hunched back and his bloated torso, are starting to glow a bit, strangely. You might want to get that checked out, Rora, before your dick falls off. What? What's it now? You saw me. I've been in the library.

There's nothing that can... Nothing that can cure this, at least not here. So you'd go into Dyer soon, then? If we're you killed the Raven Queen? I can take her place. After all, is that not what she did be able to become? The goddess of death. You don't actually think you're going to be able to do that, do you?

I am Vorok, the Kareem king. There will be great temples and civil. civilizations that worship me and not her. I don't think you can do it. What? He snaps at you and he sprays a few like proceeds and juice. Oh, I said I don't think you can do it. Why? Look where I am.

Look what we are about to achieve the harnessing the chain god into a creature to shatter the mist, to shatter the veil, to shatter the fortress of memories. Killing the triad of death, killing the Raven Queen, putting an end to all of it. And aren't contented us, enough!

Stop talking and giving aneurgist. Everything we intend to do you. Beloved, the soviet, you see, clutches its teeth. If you don't want to die, Why do you care about all that stuff? I say to Ankhazateau. I mean, you're gonna be an oblivion for what purpose? Why are you trying to help this guy?

Just because I wish for peace does not mean I have, do not have unfinished business. I've had countless lifetimes to do everything I could hope to do. But there is one thing I wish, one thing they still have to do. Once my car is restored, and he looks at both of you. And the final fragment, a fragment of memory, is within one of you. And you think a parlor trick will forestall your own judgment. It's good, he's falling for it. It's a prison for me.

Do you know it's within my domain? domain. And as he attempts to spit and look at it comes out as dust. And spiel! Okay, okay, okay. The ball flies out. Okay, okay, okay. You're clearly getting worked up. So, I'll tell you, eight o'clock the other day, it was time consuming. Come on, you know that's good.

What is a clock? It looks like a sundial, but better. Oh! It's a goldicant thing. She had an hourglass. She had an hourglass the other day. Could you make a deception check? I'm picking up what you're doing.

I would like you to make a deception check at advantage because Mikey's very impressed and fooled. 16. That's pretty good. I got to roll his inside. He stands up and he narrows his eyes. And he smiles and he looks back and forth after, Mikey finally, can you roll one at a disadvantage too for me, a deception?

A deception at disadvantage? Yeah. 25. Oh, boy, bards. Am I right? His eye sockets narrow and he says, I see. You really expect it.

For me, I know that the one who drows with you is a failed comedian. And he walks towards you, Iris. No, no, now, now, no. Like, nobody's big. But yeah, I'll try another one. All right, here we go. I wouldn't search a song about a tortilla, but it's more of a rap. I don't understand half of the words.

I'll join the club. I really thought you were smart isn't this. As he looms over, as you see as Iris, as you... I need to make a perception check at advantage for me, please. 30. 30. Wow. As he stands up and he presses his chair back and you see that his plate is completely empty.

As the skeletal servants, they are very frail, they're not armed, they're not armored, very clearly just in very simple robes. That as you look, as Akitap approaches, he grabs his great scepter and grabs his blade and puts it at his head. side, he starts walking towards him. And you see that for every step that he takes, there is a flash of glow from within Vorox Rose. And he kind of, as hunched and grotesque as he is, he bulges a bit more with each step. And as every foot he gets closer, and he bulges a bit more. And as, and you know, this as architect stops and looks at you.

You expect to fool me, devil. Now, now, now, no, no, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, no, no, no, no, no, no. We don't need to go calling on my heritage. I'm just a simple god. I mean, I'm just a simple pharaoh's daughter from the desert. He looks at Caprize and says, you are my car after all. And he steps forward, and he seems to actually be, you see a flash of, although he's an eyeless zombie mummy, the he sees he have a flare of anger on his face as he steps towards you.

You come to my pyramid, my seat of power. You dare try to fool me with such a cheap trick. As you step forward, Vorok is almost not paying attention to you. As he is between you and him, as he steps forward and he says, you barred, pathetic, heartland values music and song. But you are talbottened. You do not fool me.

And I expect you to show your fealty to Ankateau. The God King Pharaoh, I will let you travel before me, and I may spare your life. Well, talentless is a little harsh, I would say. I see that my other jokes haven't landed, but given what we've traveled through, let's try this one at least, give me one more chance. All right, here we go.

What you call a funny mountain. hilarious. No? Oh, I get it. This land is so difficult. Make one more deception check. Right advantage. Get there at all.

Hill, areas. Uh, 22. The hills like a small mountain. Not really, I mean, it's totally different things. You see now as you see now as Anka-Tep approaches, and he passes Caprice, who he very, and he places his hand gently on your face, Caprice, and he runs his undead finger along your farm. We will be reunited. He paulsed very briefly, and then he turns back with wrath, as he steps forward.

And as he steps closer and closer, he then gets directly next to King Vorok, who I'll keep that perception role. You now see the bulging in his flash, he becomes sick, completely sickening and glowing with almost a fiendish energy. And you look at the, you look at the table, that there's simple cutlery. on either side of your plate, and you see the knife, and you see Vorok, and have felt Inubis' presence this whole time. But there's something as Ancatep gets this close, and you see the, you should glow from

within Vorok, as his disease starts to spread without him realizing him. as he continues to stuff his face with the banquet. You feed your eyes drawn toward the knife, and then to Horrox bloated torso, and then to Anketep. And the words that he told you as he was withered and dying in the Amber Temple fills your mind as Akhtep approaches here. And those words were?

that as painful as it would be, more or less, that you might have to rely on the assistance of people who you would not, the alliance of people you would not want to. I don't think I'm picking up what you're laying down. As you... Because I'm wrapped up.

I can't do anything with the knife. Well, correct. But he's getting closer. And as Ancatep looks at you and he says, I will give you a chance to grovel before me as he waves his hand and if you grovel before me I will spare you

you feel the bandages start to slip away from you as you regain motion as you see a bulging, unstable Vorok like a balloon ready to pop

bulge and swell and your attention is drawn to the knife. And you feel like you have a moment. So what I will ask is, does it look like I should try to pop him like a balloon? Or that I should pass him the knife? Like, I guess that's, I'm confused on that. I would say that as you hear the voice, you get the sense of the form.

As you, as there's a voice in your head, the familiar booming, powerful presence. do it. Of course, absolutely. And I go to bow the way that Derek would, and as this arm goes back, I try and grab the knife and then just toss it directly into Vorok's stomach. Allow me to change the music.

Zerm fucked him up so bad. Whatever he fucking did to him is like, this is going to be so fucked up. And like, as I do it, I will say, oh, yes, great Pharaoh on Ketep, I grovel before thee. I throw it. You throw the word, after you throw out the word thee,

your hand dexterous as a cat. And I would say that you don't even need to roll for it because of how intensely focused and how well you have played upon the pride and the vanity of someone who sits in a golden pyramid that has a massive statue of himself. As you whip the blade, and he goes very quickly,

you wouldn't expect with how his withered undead form to defend himself, expecting the blade to come to him. But it sinks deep into Vorox's belly. And you see him take a final bite, and he goes, and he explodes into horrific, demonic fiendish pestilence

that immediately whips out and swirls around and blasts on top of Anka-Tap with a will as you hear the very faintly the flapping of winks as he is completely consumed in insects and feathers and plague and pestilence as he writhes

and and immediately why is this happening? That's my constant struggle with the music. Yeah. As he rides and he's covered in this horrible disease, and although he is undead,

and although he has no blood vessels, they've long withered, you can see the same horrible pestilence filling his empty cavities, withering him away as they glow with fiendish demonic taint as well. And he bats it all away and he slams his staff down and bursts, incinerating all of the horrible insects and parasites from horrible dimensions from the abyss.

As he grasps his chest, are my God! As you finish, as you finish throwing the blade, the bandages once again whip around and grab your arms completely consuming you as he looks around at all of you. Now it's not the time. It must happen to life beneath the full moon.

He looks back and forth. As he raises his arm and you see a mask, you can as the full moon, blayers down as the entire top of the pyramid opens. And you hear the as stones start to slide around. As he reaches down and grabs you by the scruff iris, as he then slams his staff down. And with a burst of energy, dark tendrils slither out

and he rises into the air, leaving all of you behind in the banquet, helpless. As he rises and he looks at you, now he will be reunited, reunited my fragment of memory. My fragment. As you rise into the night sky of Harakir, your friends behind you, as you see this golden tip of the pyramid

has been reformed into a large, platform with a massive full moon overhead. You see the glowing orange light of one, two, three, four, five, six. All of those containers with all of those humming fragments of Kao now surround you with an empty spot. And you see now a great slab with a great slab. And at each corner a Knappet jar. are. He extends his arm and the tendrils and bandages slither and slam you down onto the slab. And he places the staff down and it stands still. And as helpless with this dark magic of death,

he reaches down and pulls out his blade. Tonight, we are reunited. Tonight, you try to try. You try to Join me, my car, tonight, you die. And he spins his blade around, and that's what I was saying. Oh, my God. What? My God. An Auxanamo.

You're like going to stab Iris? Hi! Iris! Please! Iris! You mean Caprice. Iron. I don't look at this world.
