[♪ Music playing in background, Brian Murphy, joined by J. Kerwitz. Hard one, short foot. Emily Axford.

Moon Shine Sabin. Poppin' in the shadow fell on her way to hell. Oh, no. I have to talk to us about that. Hey, yeah, this is just a weirdo. I don't like this. Talk to your friends. We've got a text thread for this, Emily.

Has tag where is Papa? Hey, you've got God giving him space? And of course, called Altanner. Beverly Toggle, the fifth turtle teen. Let's go. OK. Turtle teen. Turtle teen.

Turtle teen. It's like oval teen, but it's made of turtles. No. Sweet guys, let's do a little recap. So last week, hard one continued searching the ruins of Iron Deep, taking wrestling lessons from Jaina along the way. Munchine had a heart to heart with Papa to get her affairs in order, prompting him to run away and start hanging out with a Gwein.

Munchine then visited Pendergreens in the newly dubbed One Hells who revealed that he was struggling with the influence of the crown. In an emotionally brutal scene, Moon Shai told him to just hang on a little longer and that someday she would be back to take it from him. You all went to an improv show. Right after with Ol' Cobb, so fresh, you then spent some time with Martha Togold before Bev attempted to commune with Beverly Senior. Unfortunately Bev found a magical block preventing him from communing with his dad. Hard one found the same when he tried to commune with his mother.

Concerned the band of boobs, plane shifted to Shadowfell and found Lydia's throne room ransacked. You ran into a little Gremlin who told you that the rath on the pale horse had been there and banished many of the residents in search of Lydia who then chased her off to Deep Hollow the dark reflection of Iron Deep. Munchine cast Windwalk and you all began traveling west to Deep Hollow eventually finding the entrance. To your surprise, you saw the ghost of Gunther entering. You followed him in and encountered the personification of death, the wrath on the pale horse. It informed you that you were marked for death and that you had broken its laws by resurrecting your friends.

And then revealed that Gunther was not reincarnated the other night, but rather possessed by death, who went on to kill Red and threatened to kill others in Gladehome. And that's where we are now. I suppose I was foolish to think we could reincarnate someone during times like these. You gotta try though. So you guys, we'll see this projection.

All of these ghosts have come together. You see the image of Gunther standing over red, the wraith-like apparition of death embodies him, holding a scythe, and then you see another wraith holding a scythe emerges from the dead body of red and joins the one of Gunther. The two avatars of death begin floating out the window of Red's room into the city of Gladehome.

You guys see the wraith materializes out of this pool of other ghosts. Stance before you, cloak flapping in the cold wind that's blowing in from the outside. Everybody go ahead and roll in. Ooh, fuck. Hey, Mark, quick question. Yes. What color is pale? It is like ash in.

Oh dang, 10. 30, 20. 8. OK, moonshine, you are first. Yes, bitch. This works out perfectly. All right. So you see, yeah, there's this projection pool

in the air that is showing you glade home, that's showing you these two avatars of death, to go through the city and then you've got this one before you that is the Rath on the horse. The other ones are not on the horse. So this is the this is death proper. The other ones are just avatars. Okay then in a 60-foot radius around him I'm going to cast my first eighth level spell sunburst brilliant sunlight flashes in a 60-foot radius centered on a point. You choose within range.

Each creature in that light must make a constitution saving throw on a failed save. A creature takes 12-d6 radiant damage and is blinded for one minute. And undead. Undead and oozes have disadvantage on the saving throw. Ooh. Uh, he's not in ooze.

Yes he is. I don't know what's in that armor. He's an undead ooze. He's looking in ooze. Yes he is. I don't know what's in that armor. He's an undead ooze. He's looking pretty easy. He fails, he's going to burn a legendary resistance. Well, he'll still take half damage. Great. Moonshine shoots this beam of light at him immediately.

Forty radian damage, and then I'm going to do another 24 acid damage because I'm in fungal form form and my spores just upgraded. Nice. Yeah, so I basically like make a huge light and then once it dies down then I run up and spores them. Hell yeah. And then that is its layer action. On its layer action you see the avatars of death in Glade Home. There are just two of them right now, but they are out on the streets,

and they are just looking for random people to add to their numbers. I know your friends are strong. I wouldn't want to go after them unless I had all the help I could get. I respect you asking for help. That's very big of you. You see both of them succeed on perception checks to find like just low-level guards that are out around the city and you see them just silently cut down You see those guards drop and now there are four avatars of death That's bad moonshine. Yeah, I don't really see this working out. That was also like I don't I don't have much else to add to this fight I'm drained all my top level. Can you use the thinking cap to contact the fungal network and alert cob and pop a Luke? Yeah, I can try that. I mean can I do this bonus action? It is not your turn. That is death's turn

Death is super mad at hard one for coming back to life so many times Sorry, you just want to stay dead Not quite. Um, flies forward at you, spectral horse going through the air. My horse also really has a problem with you. The horse stuff really is huge. It's usually me. I'm a victim of happenstance.

These horses that we ride were all killed by you. I love ponies. I really do. Why did you specify ponies? An edible lover. Takes a sive attack against you. Hard one. Does a 21 hit you? It does if I didn't cast shield. Nice. You cast shield. You block it. Spectral hooves come out to you for the second attack pretty pony

That is a 23 to hit that's not gonna hit with shield Dwarf daddies getting the way we're the only ghost that hang out with this guy, right? Then he is going to point at Moonshine and go You break the laws of death no more I'm going to be just think this is bullshit I'm the one protecting the laws of death here you spit in the face of the laws of death well yeah I did spit in your face

I'm in your face but I'm not that that moonshine don't worry about this guy he's clearly never read a book yeah I'm go ahead and you guys are fucking ooze a Constitution saving throw moonshine 16 16 fails moonshine You see your fungal form begins to rot as you are corrupted moonshine you take 17 damage a corrupted creatures flesh twists in alien ways, the creature has disadvantage

on attack rolls, its speed is halved, and if it tries to cast a spell, it needs to succeed on a DC-15 intelligence check where the spell fails and is wasted. You can repeat the saving throw at the end of your turns. That is hard one's turn. Okay. You paste the little piece of shit. I'm gonna make it easier if I look like you're dead, dad. That turns into Elias Stormborn.

Watch this. Oh, his dad was not nearly that oozy. And you know what, I do have sort of a bone to pick with my dad, so this does help. Ha-ha-ha. I'm gonna use a luck point to reroll this one. Yikes. Um, okay, so my three attacks are a 25, a 26, and a 22.

You hit on all three. Tight. Dad, why did you do this? Just beating this shit out of it with your hammer. 58 damage. Yikes. And I really am pissed at my dad right now because I'm worried about my mom

so I'm gonna use my action surge and swing in a three more times. Nice. Oh my good lord, that is a 20 to hit. I'm gonna save my other two luck points. Okay, so I'm just gonna hit once. A 20 does not hit. Oh, fuck me.

So you don't hit at all? Yeah, it really feels bad to waste an action surge and not hit once. For it all, yeah. I really feels bad to waste an action search and not hit once. Brutal. Yeah. I know how that feels, man. Ha! It happens to me all the time.

Well, you guys are like the same at the- Hey! At the end of Hard One's turn, it is going to burn two legendary actions. And, a hard one, it caresses your face with bony fingers. And you see. Oosie fingers. And you see, it's got no face under this cloak, but can just like take the form of other things.

You see it takes the form of your human body and goes, come brother, come with me into the darkness. Thanks, but I've upgraded. I'm not gonna. Go ahead and give me a constitution saving throw. Uh, 28. That is a pass. Um, you take half of this, so instead of taking 61 damage

on the finger of death, you take 30 damage. Oh, all right, so it still hurts a lot. Yes. Finger of death, that makes me think it's one of those spells that you could die from. Yeah, that is Beverly's turn. What happened to Moonshine just for clarification? She has to make a check if she wants to cast a spell.

Yes, and she's corrupted. She is slower, she has disadvantage on her attacks. Okay. I'm groggy. I'm going to... I'm trying to kick caffeine. She has a migraine. Y'all, I was drinking so much coffee in the library.

And it was like my first day without it. Oh, that'll get you. Why not just have a coffee? That's a good ask. No, I got to bring my base level down. I never understand why people do this. Just keep drinking coffee. It's fine.

Oh yeah, trust me. I fuck with offers. Yeah. Munchan, just crunch some beans. I mean, I want to. Oh yeah trust me I fuck with offers Moonshine just crunch some beans I mean I want you but All right, so I'm going to click my heels and speed over to moonshine and do a cleansing touch

Okay to remove the effects of the spell nice. Does it work? Yes, it does Hey, you bring me a coffee. I know what I did is I like feed you some coffee beans to chew on Again, why not just drink the coffee? The kid makes weird beverages. This is great. It's like chocolate covered espresso beans minus the chocolate. Everyone agrees that chocolate is the worst part. Yeah, yeah.

Moonshine, your fungal form ditches like the rotted areas and grows new healthy um grows new healthy parts. I like to think that the flowers came and cleansed it. Oh yeah. A couple flowers. I like sprout some flowers and I like blow the pollen on you. Those flowers, it was done you. Yeah. You pop a pimple on me. At the end of Beverly's turn, I'm gonna take... How can I do, um, uh, Jojo Stern? Yes! Yes, yes! Awesome! I'm here too! Jojo, I need you to just barf all over that thing.

Oh, right! Uh, Jojo's gonna make his breath weapon attack. Nice! Yeah! So that's gonna be a DC-13 con save? Ooh! Uh, that is a fail! Ooh! I think I'm gonna take it, I think I'm gonna take it. Nice. That's just a little guy. A little guy with a big heart.

True. That's gonna be 4d8. I mean, roll those. That's got a big slow heart. Roll high. 18 damage. Nice. Oh, and then I'll have him like move. I'll have him kind of like swim through the air, kind of like just out of range of whatever attack. Okay, great. It's kind of separating from you. Yes. So we have not used this yet. This is a homebrew thing that I came up with with Caldwell, but Jojo has a reaction that he can use once a long rest. That is to do shield to him and somebody that's right next to him. So if he's not next to you, he cannot shield you.

Actually, yeah, I'll have him go over by hard one. Okay, great. He goes over to hard one. Keep in the shield up. Let's go with the turtle. Oh, that's giving me the turtle and turtle to the shell. That's right. So it should be shelled instead of shield.

Yeah, it's called shield. It's called shield. You're a half-shield. It took me a mirth like a solid day. Come up with this. Yeah, we went to breakfast and then it just carried over to lunch dinner. What's your dinner?

We did breakfast lunch and dinner. Uh-huh. So what you're looking if I took Emily out to dinner? Yeah. Death is going to take a side attack against hard one. Of course. That is a 28 to hit. So probably not gonna do any good to do shell.

Yeah, that'll get past the shell. Sweet. Then that is 22 damage, hard one. Okay. That is Balanor's turn. Balanor coming out swinging. Misses on the first attack. Shout out to the three Cree

Next attack is a oh boy 17 hit that misses Third attack hits he's gonna action surge and do three more attacks Two hits and one crit Balnor does a big 30 damage. Oh Hmm take that I'm not there yet Move to the hill though My 40th birthday was any indication. I'd be birthday by the way. Yeah, well it was about that.

That was 10 years ago, I'm 50. Oh, happy birthday. Hey, thanks so much. Have we ever been around you during your birthday? You know, I don't know when my birthday is. Oh, you were a card, right? I forgot, I was a card. It was true, yeah.

Why don't we, let's pick a new one. How about today? Today, right? I forgot. That was true. I was a card. Why don't we, let's pick a new one. How about today? Today, your birthday? People are dead. No one's dying on Belmors' own room over. Not on Belmors' card day. That is back up to Moonshack.

Okay, I guess then I'm going to the telekinetic hat, or going to the thinking cap, and reach out to my Elven kind, my Elven folks, I don't know, can I, I mean, Moonchang, go ahead and give me an insight, Jack. Okay. Uh-oh. It's gonna be a 16.

16. You think traveling across plans, particularly shadow fell would be difficult for you to tap into the Elven fungal network. All right. However, it would be the easiest person for you to reach would be difficult for you to tap into the Elven Fungal Network. However, the easiest person for you to reach would be Papa. All right, then. I will. Oh, God, dammit.

Yeah, I guess I got to talk to Papa. What do you mean you got to talk to? Why is it weird? Just call it. Yeah, yeah, I'm calling. No problem. He's just going through some stuff. What's he going through?

He's good. Withs it at times, hevaluating his entire life and facing his All mortality and the mortality of those he loves. Well before you say he just had to retake his bar exam Yeah, they're like renew his license. Did I say that? That's what you said Pop off there. Okay, um, Mochak go ahead and give me a as you tried to tap into the power of the crown Go ahead and give me a wisdom saving throw. Is some save. Add plus four? Okay.

Or no, plus five now. Ooh, okay. Then that is an 18. 18, okay. I will say that 18 is not good enough to get you two elves, but it is good enough to get you two pop off. So you enter this fungal network, this kind of dark blue world where everything is just outlined.

And you see an image of Glade Home floating. And rather than when you were traveling to Asmodian stuff and speaking to people, you saw these spectral forms of them and it was like you were right there with them. Pop-off feels a little bit far away. But you see a transparent spectral version of him in this outline of a room. Presumably, he's like curled up, presumably like sleeping in a room with a going. I hate to wake him, but he also makes the cutest noise when I do. Pop-op! Get's up and he he sounds far away. It's like you're hearing his thoughts. Yeah, and you're able to speak to him as if you're using a report spores, but it all sounds very far away.

Papa, hey, it's me, Moonshan. I know we ain't on good terms, but I need you to find me more and people are Luke and get to safety Bad shit is a foot It's me moonshine. I'll owe you very much. I'll see you soon Papa, I do not have you know what I can't be mad at you for fighting me back because he wouldn't be yourself You didn't so find me all you want but it. Bam! You see scrambles into action. Okay, and then can I attack or is that my action? What I just did. I'm gonna say you can do either a bonus action or an action.

I'll just attack. I want a bonus action. I'll just attack. 26! 26 hits. You may contact with Papa on the other plane, rush forward with your great sword, Rosaline, Bursts with Flame.

You're gonna move, Charlie, do it. 18, that's all I get to do. And I think I'm going, does it seem as though he's been using spells on us or is it all just like magical? It's just been skills so far. It's just been skills. Seems like it. All right then, I'm gonna spore them for 24 more.

You spores this dude. You see some of his spectral form dissipates as the acid hits him. Some of his ooze sloths off. I'm not an ooze. You're very wet. I'm not oozey. I tell you what.

I look like goddamn jello with that. I came from the creek. I know a fucking ooze when I see an ooze. It's okay. You know, you have some acne puss on you. I understand. That is back to the layer action. So I'm gonna say Papa and company are going to act

on Moon Shines turn. So Papa is going to, Papa has gotten up and has woken up a gwayne. You guys kind of don't know what's going on with them right now because you don't see them in the projection. But this is the layer action. Everybody go ahead and give me a pure luck check. In the earlier rounds, you don't have to worry

about this as much, but a one or two is very bad. What if I just got a net 20? Net 20. So this is more about not rolling poorly than it is about rolling well. Rolling a one or a two means that the specters will target people that are close to you specifically. But we'll say that with a Nat 20,

that it'll be easier for Papa and a Gwayne to track the specters. Okay. What did everybody else get? Well, I got a six, but I feel like Munchin's 20. Cancel. Yeah, what did you get, Beth? I got a 17, but I like moonshines 20 cancel right. Yeah, what did you get? I got a 17 okay

All of those are fine for the first news moonshines 20 yeah in the in the second round Only if you roll a like one a two or a three is it very bad? So you guys are fine. So you guys see these four specters once, each one of them is going to make perception checks to try to find random people to off, and they do. You see the four cuts down, another four people. You see a couple out for a stroll. They get slashed down by two of them, and a couple more guards that get taken out.

You see that there are now eight of them. They are officially a big threat to like any of your friends that they weren't just sneaking. They're also very quiet. There's no way your horse is cool with this. What do you mean? Did you ask your horse if you could do this? It's probably the horse's idea, Beverly.

Can I put out a little food for the horse? Why don't you ask the guy who killed my horse? I put a couple horses out of their misery. I did the right thing. That is death's turn. Death is going to take some attacks on hard one. I still got a turtle near me. You're a turtle. Jesus, that one is a 34 to hit.

Okay, turtle's not gonna help.. Okay, turtles not gonna help. No, we're not gonna help. Okay, that's not gonna help. So that is 22 damage with the side. Goes out, you with the hooves. The hooves are a 22 to hit. That doesn't hit with the shield. Do you wanna use the shield right now against hooves?

Oh, I have to choose when I use it. Well, the shield is gone, that only lasts for a round. Oh, I see. So do you want the perfect jaw jaw needs to decide to use, that only lasts for a round. Oh, I see. So the... He's talking about the first round. The jaw jaw needs to decide to use... That's a skill jaw jaw has. Oh, I see.

Oh, yeah, no, I'll take the hooves. Okay. I deserve the hooves. Yes, that is 19 damage from the hooves. Cool. You choose the hooves. And then it is going to cast... Oh, actually, a hard one.

As it cuts into with the sive, go ahead and give me a con saving throw. Good grief. I'll use a luck point. Great. I rolled a two and a three. Not good. 24. 24 passes.

Okay, you are not stunned. You are slashed. You feel the cold icy grip of death as this spectral sithe goes through your body. If you're a some familiar feel. Stop for a moment. But it you end up okay. But then he's gonna hold this hand up and do corruption

on Beverly. Beverly go ahead and give me a con saving throw. Cool. 18. 18 does not pass. Beverly you take 22 damage. Okay cool. So your body is corrupted.

Great. You feel your acne begins to spread. No, it was just receding. Yeah. You got to pop those white heads. Oh, they start. Such bubbling. Such bubbling.

Yeah, you guys see just super oozy acne coming out of the side of his face. I know. Look, do you think I can put some cream on it? I know, it's better than I do. I told you. It's uncreamable, but can I cover it? Absolutely, uncreamable.

Just a little cream. You need to cut it off. He's oozy. Ah, sweet. So you take 22 damage. 22, okay. And now you have disadvantage on attack rolls, half your speed, and you need to do an intelligence check to cast a spell.

Oh, Lord, let me write all this down. That is hard one's turn. Calling my dwarf daddy's is a full action, not a full action, right? All right, so I'm just gonna keep on whacking this guy with a hammer switch. Yeah, I think you gotta do damage because me and Beber probably just gonna go back

and forth healing each other. Cool. What did you do with my mother? If I may ask, I did nothing with her, she did it to herself. Right, that's fucked up. Oh, is that really gonna be- Or boating as hell.

That is a dirty 20 that does not hit, right? Dirty 20 does not hit no. 21 and a 22. 21 and 22 both hit. 38 damage. Nice. Why are you specifically targeting my horse? You keep on dodging, I'm squishing it.

I'm squishing it. You're guiding the horse into the hammer. You're the animal killer. Not you, that he can only die once. Yeah, he keeps moving the horse's head in the way. New it, the horse is innocent. This is on the ooze. The ooze on hooves.

At the end of your turn is going to hold its hand up at moonshine and go, oh, are we waiting to each other now? Rest now! Come to me! I'll check it out more of a trance. Go ahead and give me a constitution saving throw. Okay. That one.

Yes, see. Moonshine drops. Zero hit point. Oh, but deathboard. Deathboard. Deathboard. Deathboard just stops her from dying. She goes up to one.

She goes up to one. Great. You're at one HP. Oh, shit. Oh, man, his fun when spells work. A key deathboard. But still really bad. Yeah, yeah, yeah, not great.

Okay, I feel like that was a win, but I'm still upset. I mean, if anything, it just kind of proves your point that I'm outsmart in you at every... Shut up, fuck your death, you're up. You kind of suck at killing people. Are you really death or are you bringing them to one hit point? Yeah. Clearly the horse is in charge here.

Um, that is Bev's turn. Okay, I'm going to whistle for Jojo, because my movement is reduced, so I'm gonna use him to get me around. Great. I hop on my skateboard turtle, and I get over to moonshine, and I'm going to touch hands her for 35.

Nice. Woo! You do not need to do a check to do lay hands. That's just an action. Alrighty. And then I stop by and do work around. We've had a lot of time to learn. We've been in the library. We've been chugging coffee. We've been crunching beans. You've been to a library. Yes. Clearly not. They wouldn't let him in a library. He'd get goo all

over the books. I feel like it's all I've seen for the past of the weeks. Oh, and after I touch hands, moonshine, I like dangle my new amulet, which now is like a little turtle shell. Oh, and after I touch hands, Moonshine, I like dangle my new amulet, which now is like a little turtle shell. Oh, hello! And I remind her that that exists and she should use it. She feels the need. That's a bonus action. Yeah, yeah. That is your turn.

That is Balnor's turn. Balnor is just going to take some swings. Misses on the first attack. Ooh, crits on the second attack. The boy hits on the third attack. Pop those whiteheads. That is a 24 damage from Ballnor. You see, death is starting to dissipate here. Horse is starting to look real bad.

Concentrate your fire friends. The horse is blameless. That is back up to Moonchite. Okay, I'm gonna pop him back up to one. I'm gonna turn to Babim and just be like, damn we have each other's backs today. We got it. I'm gonna greater restoration him. Oh!

So he's no longer corrupted. Right on. And then I'm gonna go over and look for the horse's weakest leg and pop it. She's up for it. Oh wait, actually now it's only 12 because I'm gonna go over and look for the horse's weakest leg and hope it cheesed up for. Oh wait, actually now it's only 12, because I'm not. Oh wait, if I went down to one,

I would stay in fungal form, right? What is the wording of death word? I think you would, yeah. I think it just, you just go to one instead of going to zero. So you never drop. Yeah, the first time the target would drop to zero hit points as a result of taking damage, the target instead drops to one hit point.

Yep, you're good. Hell yeah, as I'm still in fun form, so 24 acid damage to that code. Good, good team work, listen. You don't need to read a book. Maybe the horsemen should have worked together. This is bad. Yeah, I know, right? I get the feeling no one wants to hang out with pestilence.

Like I seem like kind of a drag. Yeah, he's trying to give me this guy. He's a goober. What's Famine like? Because he's been following me. I've been leaving out food for him, but I don't think he's bit. Oh, he's thirsty. Oh, he's thirsty. Okay Water. Oh, I was just making like a pond. I was being punny. Oh, like he's like horny. He's horny But he's actually just famine. I'll give him a go around what? He's you would die

He would dry out your inside stranger Stranger things of Abbot. I've seen her edge of tree. Okay. I would recommend not having sex with any of us. Clearly. Alright, we get it. You're in to famine. You... Yeah, I'm sorry. Everyone back all famine. Okay. What said anything about sex? You've got a tree to the edge? You said anything about sex. You thought a tree to the edge, you fucking necking. You all have been on the edge too long, and you must come over the edge. Moonshine can edge someone from 30 feet away.

Yeah, and a cold. I got a pretty good range on my edge. Jesus. Moonshine, go ahead and give me a pure luck check to see how close Papa and a Gwayene are staying to me modesty if you can like get to her quick. Seven. Okay.

Liam, can we use that net 20? Okay. He is not able to get to her on that turn, but I will say that Aguene was staying downstairs in the same place as Red and Gunther. So you see in this projection image of the eight reapers that are all together, you suddenly see, pfff, arrows start flying in and shooting at the specter.

And you see Papa rushes in fungal form because of you. I start going after NICE. Spop that baby from afar. Go ahead and roll from Papa, I guess these guys. 11. 11 does not hit. You see Papa lunges forward and just goes through the ghostly form of one of the rates

and bangs his head on nearby wall. So, too many cigarettes. I also look at Bev's amulet. He is huffing and puffing, and then Aguene is going to go ahead and take her shots. You see she hits twice on one of the specters, and it goes away, but they're still set.

No. That is... Wow, she went right for the horse's neck. The layer action. The layer action. The layer action. That is the layer action. So, a Gwein is like shouting, everybody wake the fuck up, death is here,

like actual fucking death, like actual ghost death is here, fucking killing people, everyone. Oh man, I've heard that voice from Irland and I were in our room together and she was yelling outside. I'm coming in, I'm not gonna knock! She's actually, you know what? Bev, I'll have you do this just do it in front of the table, give me a pure luck check for a gwayne to see if she gets anybody's attention.

That's a five. That is a five. Okay, um, that means you got five people's attention. Yeah, That's a five. That is a five. Okay. That means you got five people to tell you. Yeah. Likely, there are some people nearby who will come and help her at some point. But you see there are seven of these reapers left. Everybody go ahead and roll me pure luck checks to see if they go after you're loved.

Oh, truly so fucking terrible. I got a fucking eight. 11. 11. 10. 10. Okay. Um, they are going to focus up and go after a Gwane so you see all seven of them Closin on a Gwane Out of seven she only got hit four times She takes a total of

80 damage which is bad, but she's pretty tough. She can't take a lot more of those. I said everybody wake the fuck up. Death is here? Death is actually here. She's not knocking, but no more specters. Just the seven. They are not multiplying right now.

That's good. That's good. That is good. That is Death's turn though. On Death's turn, we call him like Dennis or something. Death just seems really imposing. My name is Death. My name is Deathness.

Deathness, or you could be Deatheney. I like Deatheney actually. I'm gonna take a Sive attack against you, hard one. That hits for 27 damage, hard one. Okay. Go ahead and give me a con saving throw. 29. Super passes, you're fine.

Then is going to use a second side attack. That's definitely going to hit. That's a 31 hit. That is 19 damage. Okay. Give me another con saving throw. 26. 27.

27 passes. Then is going to kick you with the tubes. Oh, 27 passes. Then is going to kick you with its hooves. Oh, come on. Get him! Spiteful. Get him! The horse obviously doesn't want to be in this war. The horse looks more mad than death, though, so honestly.

Hoves do manage to kick you. That's a 30 to hit 16 damage from the hooves. Okay. That is hard one's turn. Okay, I'm gonna take my three swings of the hammer. So either the horse or death, whichever one is. So that's gonna be a 29. That hits 27 and a 17.

So two of them are to hit. Geez, nice. I'm gonna hit. Jeez, nice. I'm gonna crit on my turn. So sad to have a crit. That is 45 damage. Jeez, and I am going to use my second wind, I think. We're actually, can I, I'm gonna use, I'm gonna take a gander at the turtle.

Yeah, behold the turtle. Yeah. Behold the turtle. Wow. Pretty cool, right? That's a hell of a shell. It looks like you got him from like on like a cruise ship stop, gift store. Oh yeah, absolutely.

At the end of hard one's turn, it is going to use finger of death again. This time it'll do it on moonshine. Moonshine, go ahead and give me a constitution taking throw. Is this a spell? Yes. Then I get a min.

It's gonna be an 18. Plus five? Oh, that's gonna be a 23. Sweet. I can take half then. This is already halved. 36 damage. That's fine, because that took a gander at the turtle.

Nice. Lice them that damage. Dude, that turtle is fucking helpful. I can't stop looking at the turtle. Hey guys, stop. That is Bev's turn. He is bashful. All right, so.

Come on everyone. I'm just a little turtle. John, John, we love you. It's unconditional, baby. I'd love you. It's unconditional baby. I'd love for you to meet my bird. I saw your bird actually. Really? Yeah, he was going around and being like, hey, where's hard one?

You actually walked right by him. And you threw something out and it hit him. Impossible. It must have been another bird. Yeah. He actually learned how to speak. He learned how to say hard one. That's the thing Kro's gonna do.

That's awesome. It's crying out for me because it loves me, not because it needs me. I think you got it on the head right there. I'm going to go ahead and attack this horseman. Right on. I'm going to surf over on Jajah. Use Jajah's movement.

But first, let me roll to see if Jajah gets his breath weapon back. He did not get it back last round. I rolled a four. That's a one. No breath for Jojaj. He's feeling a little raspy. Surrr. It's okay, Jojaj here. I give him some coffee beans that you want.

He starts joking on them. Oh, they're fun. Why not just drink coffee? How often do you need to feed an animal? I'm gonna get you a book on this. Just all the time. Just a couple of times a day. Okay, Moonshan, I'm gonna get you a book on this. Just all the time, just a couple of times a day. Okay, Moonshine, I'm gonna need you to play chip.

I'm going to true strike on this. I'm gonna roll again. Okay, that's a seven. I got a seven and a three. Yes. But seven plus 11, 18, that's how I'm gonna do it. All right, well let me take my second attack then. We would just love to hit this

Spector I'm pretty sure I'm gonna crit on my turn. Okay, well, I'll try my best to crit But if you can crit afterward that you don't have that if you don't I will okay, that seems good bloodpacked 18 plus 11 is what in 29 super hits. Yeah, all right I'm going to do a divine smite third level Damn yeah, this guy is not gonna like that. Although I did radiant damage on him and he seemed to actually find with it I Hold up my fingers to a pimple and I pop some radiant pus onto my sword I am

Absolutely I love how good I am Absolutely not Let's get wow let's get dirty. Let's get nasty baby. It's a new bed Well, go. Wow, so bev's dirty now. I'm nerdy now. What is going on? Our one remains flirty. I Really had a thing with the trist If you want to go if you want to go try and bag some Tris's right before we thought fight the y'all. I really hate going out with you though.

It makes me feel shitty about myself. Forty-three damage on that attack. Nice. Dude starting to look pretty messed up. Jogja just used their movement so Jogjo will do a bite attack. Yeah, awesome Oh, good on boss Get that you know what chomp some ooze I think that you get for your throat. All right, just point me in his direction Well, that's a three

So that's all eight nine is not gonna hit throws up some coffee beans That's okay, all right. You shouldn't have done that. No. At the end of Bev's turn, going to take side attack against hard one, that is a 31 to hit. That's nice.

Hard one, you take 23 damage. Go ahead and give me a con saving throw. Everyone you take 23 damage, go ahead and give me a con saving throw. Hmm. 21, if I'm near Bev, then it's the 26th. I simply cannot hurt you guys. I'm good, I'm fine. Yeah, that is.

Hey, you got me to one. That's true. Hey, thank you so much. That is Boundore's turn. Boundore's gonna take. Boundore's gonna fuck him up. Three swings. Ooh, baby. He hits on all three. He does 24 damage.

Balnor just have that like buff dad look now. Yeah, he's super buff. He's still got a gut because he's been eating all the snacks at night. Yeah, I eat at night. Wow, which I shouldn't, I really shouldn't be doing. Wow, you can barely button your vest. Yeah, I read an article in Muscle and Fitness about Hugh Jackman's workout and he eats way less carbs than I do. Your triceps are insane. Thanks, yeah, no, I'm big. A lot of people forget the triceps. Yeah, I have a gut, but I'm big.

I had just been working out, just been getting pumped. That is... Lift and eat. It's like a divorced dad talking about what he's been getting pumped. That is... Lift and eat. It's like a divorced dad talking about what he's been up to. Yeah. I've actually been spending a lot of time with the gym. You look good, you look great.

Moonshine, that is back up to your turn. Okay. I think my best chance to do damage here, you said you were gonna crit, right? Is to just crit. Well, so I'm gonna bonus action guardian of nature using my thinking cap, so that it's concentrating. Great. And then I'm going to action Guardian of nature using my thinking cap So that's concentrating great. Then I'm going to joke because I have great weapon master okay

move shine just babe Ruth over here I love it remind me because I have great weapon master I actually get to attack again I get to do a bonus let me just roll my dance this dude has so many things that fuck you up if you get stunned by him and you guys just not gotten stunned I blame myself for attacking hard one, but death is your guy, that's the thing.

That's why I got good come. I was ready for him. Turns into you real quick. I have small calves. I do not. Mojang Gillib. Mojang, Mojang. Mojang, Mojang. Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang,jang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang,jang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, Mojang, did nothing but this. My bonus attack, I think I'm gonna miss,

does a 14 hit. No, it doesn't. And then I'm gonna also spore them for 24. Oh, Jesus. You guys have him right messed up. Where's Death Go and Death dies? I just stop existing. He just turns into an ooze puddle?

I'm not an ooze. That sounds really embarrassing. I just keep focusing on the ooze thing. I'm not an ooze. Munch had to go ahead and roll for Papa. He's gonna attack one of these death dudes. I realized last time Papa has packed tactics. I forgot to roll with advantage form

when he was with Gwaine. Right. I'm rolling for it now. I'm assuming that's another one. Well now he can because they're just warming around a Gwaine. Papa, just crit. Ah!

Ha ha ha! You love to see it. Unreal. Ah, Papa, you got a defender. Thank you, dice drives. We're just that linked up. We're just that linked up. And Papa are that linked up.

Yeah, you see, Papa has just embarrassed himself, ran into the wall, flopped over. Seized seven grim reapers go around a Gwain and start swinging into her, and pop out runs forward, jumps like through one of these things faces, and we'll see what happens after we hear the damage. 16!

And it's gotta do a DC 13 strength saving throw or be knocked prone. Sweet. Which would give a Gwayne probably some kind of advantage. This thing failed at saving throw. This thing was close enough to dead that I'm gonna say that Papa kills it out right. It dissipates one of these specters.

I can't believe Papa, do you feel me? We both just create at the same time. We're here. I got a present for you when I come back. Me here. You could have liked it. That is a Gwayne's turn. A Gwayne is going to take a couple of shots at these guys

and yells, does anyone want to help at all? These guys just came out and killed some guards. They weren't even watching. I was asleep with a possum and I'm doing all the work. She rolls a nat one on the first attack, but she's a half length. She's lucky. Lucky lucky.

She hits, and then she hits on the second attack. Ooh, baby. 26 damage on the first attack, kills one of them. Nice. And then does. Okay, so three of them are gone now, right? 25 damage on the next one, and kills another one. You, yes.

Get that girl a medal. Yes. So there are four left, and they are going 25 damage on the next one and kills another one. You, yes! Get the girl a medal. So there are four left and they are going to, oh boy, what are they gonna do? Do they take a risk fighting a gwayne or do they try to cause more trouble? I'm going to say that two of them go off to cause more trouble.

One of them will take an opportunity attack. Oh, actually, a Goyne's got her bow out. She doesn't get an opportunity attack. But pop on it. He got a five and a four again. He does not hit bite those ankles. Two of them. Unless a ten hits. No. Two of them. Oh, that's a 10 hits. No.

Two of them are going to fly off. Guys, go ahead and give me luck checks to see if they try to sneak in on the knee of friends. I'm gonna crit on this one. I got a net one. Okay. 11, 14. We have all the same friends. You guys see in the projection, the specters,

they're like teleporting, they're moving really quickly so they're not moving with the normal speed and you see they appear outside of Glade home university and you see Luconis inside his chambers and He is in a trance. He is not paying attention right now. I'm going to roll a stealth check for them and Emily I will let you roll a perception check for Lucana's to see if he sees them. You see they start to fly in through the

stone walls and appear behind him. As they begin to creep on him, he is sitting there cross-legged, eyes closed in a trance. They move behind him nearly silently. I will roll stealth checks for them first. They got a 17 on their stealth. What's he at the perception? Plus two to perception.

What? He's in the 15 or higher? He's an intelligence guy, he's not a perception. Oh, ooh. 18, 18, oh wow! God. Oh, wow. You see, there's those dice.

As the two rates Begin to close in on Luconis you see those up like a monk like one eye Cox open and he goes Truders Excelsior holds his hand out and blasts them both with a cone of cold 30 daddy they will go ahead and make Con saving throws coming straight out of transdune, the fifth level Kona call will fuck you. Yeah, beam of blue light, you see both of them, vaporized instantly. Thank God your dad's a light trancer.

Oh yeah, I know. It is honestly of all the people to go after an elf is the best person. Moonshine being connected to pop on being able to wake up a Gwein is the best. If it went after like Kran or Dirlin, that's just catching two people in bed. That's, that would not have been good.

Yeah. So there are two deaths, unless there's a death left, in bed doing something dirty. Nice. They are going to take attacks on a Gwein. Remember, a Gwein is not in great condition. Okay. They do a total of 40 damage to a Gwain.

A Gwain is extremely injured, but there are only two of them left. So, Poppa, search your fur for good berries. It's up against lost in there all the time. Then, that is... That is... That is... Feather soup coffee beans.

Then that is death's turn. Okay. Um, moonshine, you are encouraged by having seen your father just thwart these avatars of death. You are momentarily happy. A hard one. You see, death has been swinging down onto you with the sive and goes, you just won't go down. So I'll have to take out the one who keeps bringing you back up. the sive and goes, you just won't go down.

So I'll have to take out the one who keeps bringing you back up. We'll just hand up and move. Wait a second, no hit me. And it's going to cast Powerward Kill. Okay, what do I do? Are you less than a hundred hit points? Yeah. You see ancient words come from its mouth

and moonshine drops dead. moonshine? Could jaw job block that? Nope, but she'll, no. Okay. Shit. moonshine drops. Instantly not breathing.

Gone. You fucking in the horse you rode in on. To be honest, that is hard once turn. Is this like I do death saves? I'm never dead. Oh, fuck. Don't worry, I can... Yeah, Moonshan, you see only darkness and you just hear a voice in the darkness go. Moonthring? Are you, are you coming already? Oh, Benagrains. Um, no, I still need more time. Oh.

I think at least I don't know. A man mumbled words at me and this is a different feeling than I've ever felt in my whole life and I'm worried because if I'm down that means pop-hop comes out of fungal form. Yeah you guys see in the projection pop-hop comes out of fungal form and instantly he knows some things wrong and starts freaking out. StartsEW REEW REEW REEW! Starts like yapping. Um, that is hard one's turn.

Well, now you're really fucked up. I'm gonna swing my hammer at this guy three times. Fuck me. I did crit once. Okay. I'm gonna use a luck point and try to hit him again So that is a 25 and a crit nice very nice 48 damage very very hurt

But still here can I bonus action just run over to moonsonshine with the book and even if it doesn't do anything I'd at least like to kneel down there and sob quietly and you like these right? Read this book, read that and wake up. Hard one, here's what I will allow. If you take an opportunity attack, I will let you do a roll and if you get a nat 20, then Munchan will pop back up to one. Cool. Yeah, I'll take an opportunity. Okay, just just crit. All I have to do is crit. Misses anyway. Swings the side that you, hard one, drops down next to moonshine, pulls out the holy book and attempts to essentially use divine intervention to revive moonshine. Come on. It's a 15.

moonshine feels cold and dead in your arms. You see her fungal form falls apart around her like a dead flower losing its petals. It's okay, hang in there. At the end of your turn is going to point a finger at Beverly looks at Hardwan. I will take everything from you. With pointing until you come with me. Ok, I'll go. I'll go. Hard when no. Bring her back and I'll come. Bring her back.

Don't play by his rules. That's not how we win this. There aren't rules, man. Munchai is dead. What are we going to do? Well, we'll find something. I can revive a fire. It's okay. Don't give up hope yet. He casts finger of death on Beverly. Wow, Bev, go ahead and get me a cond save. Bob, Bob, go ahead and get me a con save. I'm gonna reroll that one. Oh, fuck you, God! This session is one to 20s! Oh, it is ups and downs, my friends.

That's a five, but I add eight to it. Is that right? Yeah, eight. That fails. Bob, this is really sick though. You take 69 damage. So dope. That's really super dope.

Beverly's tongue comes out and he doesn't know why. Even with a concept of 13, I still take it. Yeah, believe it or not. It's wild. Okay, all right, I'm still doing okay. 69 damage? Yeah. Nice.

Beverly, that is your turn. Okay, go ahead and give me an insight check. That's a nat 20. Oh, okay. Quite a sight. Great. With a nat 20. Yeah.

You know for sure that if you revivify moonshine while this dude is in charge of who lives or dies, it will not work and it'll be corrupted. Yep. Oh, it'll be like, what happened when I read Cardiac Luther? Exactly. You immediately have the thought, finish this guy, send him into the fucking Netherrealm, and then bring back Moonshine.

Hard one. Hold her tight. I'm gonna finish this. And then we're gonna send him to Horse Hell where he belongs. I do not get my breath weapon back for jaw jaw, but I'm still on top of him. I'm going to just glide in and take some swipes. I am going to try and do a blinding smite

on this one with my bonus action. Great. Fuck, that's a three. God damn it. Yeah, this is a three-create. That's 14, but that still doesn't hit. It's not gonna hit. All right.

Second one, if you want, Jojah to give you the help action. Oh, it's not a bad idea. That's a great idea. Instead of having him attack. So he can, that's perfect. I'm gonna do that, thank you. Because you can do a lot more damage with a smite.

Your blinding smite stays. The sword is powered up. Great, cool. You see wildflowers blooming at the hilt as I charge it up. That's a 19. Nice. That's a 30. Jesus, all right.

What you doing with it? Blinding smite, which is a third level and a second level divine smite. So give me a moment to do some math. Right on. The thing's also evil, so you get an extra D6, and you get an extra D8. My God. 50 damage.

Woohoo! Beverly, finish it. Yeah. Yes. Yo. You see like radiant tears dripping down my face. They fall to the ground and everywhere that a tear drops onto this forsaken soil, wildflowers grows.

I stride forward. I take out each of the horse's legs first so that it falls down to my level. Got a proud of my point. I look back, wink at hard one, flex my butt cheeks, and then decapitate death. Nice. Yeah, you swing into death as you use this holy smite,

and you're calling from like Malor's power, Bohumi's power. Hard one, as you're watching it, you see the spectral form of moonshine swing with him. And so, yeah. To death, yeah, cause. You see, I form of moonshine swing with him. Yeah. And so it's a dead book. Yeah, it goes. You see, I felt a little anguish on that one. You see death's spectral form warps and shatters sending a wave of energy through the cave. You see in the projection of Glade Home, the spectral reapers that were fighting Pappa and Aguene, whoo, whoo,

disappear into puffs of smoke. Aww, thank you. And then finally, the collection of ghosts that came together to form this projection break apart and once again become a crowd of individual spectral entities that begin once again floating through the cave aimlessly giving off a blue glow that lights the cave and you see moonshine is on the floor here and moonshine as you are in this dark place and you can hear pender greens you see a small circle of light, like this red orange light through what you're hearing, pender greens. And then you also see the colors of nature. It looks like maybe like maluras domain, like that sort of in between world on the material plane. And you also

see a little image of the material plane that you recognize as just being the day to day. And you see pop out there deep in the distance. And you see him trying to scramble towards you, but no matter how fast he runs, he can't get to you. So is it essentially I'm like almost like hanging like a puppet in darkness and then I see these little pins. Yeah.

Yeah. Oh, yeah. Slow down. Yeah. I told you, you can't. Follow me. You see, he keeps trying to go. He's in like a bubble trying to get into the darkness to get to you. Buh-buh.

Buh-buh. I feel like I've never invoked this privilege before, but stay. Papa looks at you like I've never listened to that before and I'm not going to start to laugh. And you see he lunges to like break the little like bubble that he's in. Let's cut back to Deep Hollow here. So hard one and Bev, you are around Munchan's body right now.

Keep her neck propped up. I scoop Munchan up. I pick her up and I'm holding her. That's an A plus scoop, she'd be so proud. Go to Papa Munchan, go to Papa. Just follow his voice, follow his screechy rears. Come on, come on, Mooney. I warm up my hands, kind of pedals blooming

as I begin this revivify ritual with our last spell component. Ooh. Okay, Moonshine, I'm gonna need you to reroll your death saving throws. Okay. I'm gonna need you to reroll your death saving throws. Um, okay. But I will allow you to have advantage on the first one. Papa is helping you, he's trying to get through to you.

Hard one, what are you doing? You just holding. I guess, yeah, I have her in my arms and I'm gonna take in me and say, not yet. Not yet, not yet my sister. Okay, first is a pass, whoo, 16. All right. Second is a not one. Two fails.

Okay, can I just pour some quick water into my hand and just drop a it on her upper lip and give her my last luck point to reroll a death save if a hard one can't hold it. Or the endowmentable, anything? As you're like desperately pleading with Moon China Stay, you see she's struggling even with Beverly trying to bring her back.

She is, you guys are in the domain of death. This is the hardest resurrection you guys have ever had. Why don't we do this? Moonshine will have you continue to roll. Hard one will have you start making religion checks and stuff to be able to use your luck points and stuff for her if you need it. Okay.

Nat 20! Ah! Ha ha ha! Whaa! Ha! What the fuck? Ha! You see, a moonshine...

gulps air as you're leaning over her hard one, like, um, pleading with the gods to help you. Munchain comes back to life. Oh, not today. Thank you. You crazy fucking elf. I think I need a coffee. Right away. Cha-cha-cha, these beans up. All right. You can't keep doing this to us.

What happened precisely? I barely killed a horse. I didn't like it, but honestly, a hard one in the moment, I kind of see what you get out of it. You know what? I think death had it out for all of us and he took the one he knew would hurt the most. Well, thanks for, uh, hey, there can't be a fungal network without the source of a spores. I love you, Moonchai.

And not in a romantic way like it was before. Just, I love you. I was never romantic. It was before. Just like, just like, yeah. I can't think you're like, it was true that you never romantic. It was, it was. I never romantic. This episode of NADPOT has brought to you by Bird Dogs. They're a company that makes pants and shorts, so no matter where you fall and the age

Yeah, you reach Papa and you see through the fungal network

that Papa looks to be okay you reach pop-off and you see through the fungal network that pop-off looks to be okay and you see that elves are starting to gather. Like it looks like people came to help a Gwain like heal her up and stuff. Oh, okay. I just wanna make, I don't need to talk to pop-off, I just wanna like make my presence felt so he doesn't need to definitely know

that you're still alive. Okay. Um, I, hard one, Lydia ever mentioned a place around here with like a bed and breakfast or anything because I think I need some R and R. If this place is anything remotely like Iron Deep, I know at least some corners and caverns where we get some grub. Probably some bunk beds, right?

Okay. Yeah, so you guys are in these, you can't tell if they're ruins or if this area is just a resting place for these strange ghosts that are floating around, but the big, strange thing that you noticed when you came in here was that there is all this rubble in the center of the city, despite this city being completely intact. Maybe it's time I told you guys about this weird dream I had. Yeah, now seems great.

Please spill. I tell them about the contents of my dream of iron deep turning into sort of a black void. Real quick, I like throw up some like afterlife antimatter. Oh. Oh, whoa. Sorry, I've never died before.

John Charles, that coffee ready? So that's familiar to me. That's going to be the death antimatter. OK, yeah. Whatever you do, resist any urge to eat it again. That's gonna be the anti death, or the death anti matter. Whatever you do, resist any urge to eat it again. I'm already eating it. I'm gonna go ahead and try and cure wounds, Moonshine, while she's recuperating.

Yeah, oh, thanks. Yeah, I can, I should cure myself as well. Okay, let me give you. Yeah, you guys can take, I mean, there is no danger here right now. These ghosts, like I said, fish in a fish tank. So you guys have time to take, I mean, there is no danger here right now. These ghosts, like I said, like fish in a fish tank. So you guys have time to take a short rest, easy. Is there anything left over of death of the horseman?

No, he completely disappeared. Okay. I'm just trying to think, we're out of components. So I'm looking, actually, yeah, I am certain. That is something that you can definitely talk to, like, Erdan about. Okay, cool. You guys are at the point where the things that you guys have collected on your adventures are so high level yeah that anything that they would have

had in a museum or stored in the university except for like the thinking cap is not going to be as strong as things that you guys have already found however if you just need pure spell components mm-hmm you guys are the heroes of the, if you just need pure spell components, you guys are the heroes of the realm, and you've got a full magical city, you could definitely talk to Erdyn about that. Okay, cool. He just seemed overwhelmed before,

I didn't want to bring it off. Yeah, he didn't want to run an errand for you. He's been mad at you, why was he mad at you? No reason. I think he's just testy. You know, okay. Growing pains of ruling, I imagine. He kept like hissing at you.

He was, you know, he was bleeding. He was in a skeletal cat. Yeah. It was him and the cat. It was weird. But, pissing. Okay, so you guys take a little short rest and yeah, hard one tells you guys about this dream he had,

whereas King Grimthorne McGannis was falling back, he disappeared into darkness. And then I had another dream, like three nights later, where Gemma was there, she had shaved, it was like weird, but she like introduced me to this other guy that she was with anyway. And then I had a dream, night after that. Unless you guys think the first dream

makes sense to think about right now. Well, we can pick them up. We can keep on picking all these cards. Pick them all apart in time, kind of. I wonder about doing Locate object to try to find his hammer. Yeah, I think it seems like. If it's within a thousand feet,

we'll know it's direction and it's movement. Yeah, why not see if it's a transverse in this mountain. Yeah, I'll try that. Mochai, go ahead and give me an arcana check. 24. Much like when you tried to locate Lydia herself the hammer is Here in some capacity, but there's something between you and this some sort of force field. I think But it is all below

And yeah, there was this debris and you also saw Gunther go down into it Yeah, we saw we saw Gunther just kind of stand there and get sucked down into the earth, right? Yeah. Well, maybe we should all hop on Jaw Jaw's back and just kind of elevate her down? Yeah, I think so. All right. I light up my sword to kind of give us a little glow

as we go. I tie my hair up into a quick bun. So it is like anti-life and time matter. I kicked some dirt on top of it. It is so I don't need it. I don't know. I put the jaw-jock coffee into my endless beer mug and hand it to Moonshine.

Oh, I'm never trying to kick caffeine again. So it is not a proper hole. It is like filled in. Do you guys have any ways with which to move rocks or anything that is going to take like hours or days? I have a pickaxe. Oh, if we, I mean, if I zealots trans, I can do like an insane earthquake

or use something like that or like transform rock into mud. So if y'all don't mind, send up camp right now. Beverly is like over by one boulder going, ah! No, yeah, that sounds good. Just do that. I'm just gonna say this because I have two options

and I'm trying to decide which one is cooler so you guys can help me decide. I have Transmute Rock. You choose an area of stone or mud that you can see that fits within a 40 foot cube and range and choose one of the following effects, transmute rock to mud, so essentially we would turn it into mud and just like ride it down.

Oh, we could scrum it down? Yeah, scrum it down. And scrum it down. But I also have like move earth, which is basically like choose an area of terrain and you can reshape the dirt or clay in the area in any manner. I like the idea of a scrum. Yeah, okay, that's what I was like leaning towards. You guys take a little time.

You guys rest, you lick your wounds. Bound or keeps looking over at you, moonshine, and just smiling and nodding. We were never afraid. Good to have you around. No, I wasn't saying. Just for friends, you're alive. No, thank you, thank you.

Thank you for, I mean, I guess thank you for bringing me back to life me Yeah, I had the least to do with it. I was freaking out. I punched a wall. Yeah, but whoa I think I might have angered the gods in fact I mean any any damage you did to that death rate You know, yeah contributed to me here. Yeah, well thank you. You don't need to come for me. You just died.

You don't come for me. I'm fine. I'm fine. Yeah, totally true. Yeah, I support you. I support you. You're throwing up anti-life matter. Whoa, Foochite, he also really freaked out.

It was bad, yay. It just pushed up and cried. I had a temper tantrum. I freaked out. Okay, so when I come out of my trance, I do Transmute Rock. So I want to find the, like, 40-foot cube that, like, around where Gunther transported there, and basically turn all of that Transmute Rock to mud, and so that we can kind of just, like, water park slide it down. Sweet. Yeah. You basically make basically make like a whirlpool of mud

with an empty hole in the center. And then you guys, wait, can I say what I do? And then I rip off the pants of my overall, so it looks like I'm in like a Baywatch overalls. And then I run and then I dive in. You dive in the Bev, I'll assume, surfs in on Jojojo.

I hold Jojo above my head, like one of those lifesaver, booze. Yeah. And then I throw him down into the mud at the last one and dive on top. Look, school. Starts going super slow. I rip off the bottom parts of my pants

while I'm wearing short shorts. And hard one dives in. As you actually do a jackknife. As you guys swim, sliding through this mud deeper and deeper into the mountain, bev your sense evil begins to ping and you're able to start to slow down and direct the other people towards where

you're able to sense it. And you get the sense that there is some kind of cursed artifact in the mud here that was buried in the rocks before. I hold up a little flower in my palm, and it's petals turn into a little mouth, and it goes, wow, that's evil. I really wish he didn't become a flower guy. It's evil. I really wish he didn't become a flower guy.

It's that way. Thank you for your service, kind flower. Kisses me on the cheek. So you guys pick grow out of him? So you guys know that there is something buried in the mud here that is cursed. What do you guys do? I think we unearth it. I mean, I guess we got it. Oh, I'll use my thinking cap and pick it up with hell beneath it. Sweet. Um, Moonshine,

you reach out with your mind. Um, you dig through the mud and you pull out from, um, as I'm doing it, I'm wondering if any of those hiles ever used this fancy noggin hugger to a dig through mud. You find deep in the mud a sword, the sword of shadows, the sword of the dark lord of Shadowfell, Lydia Stormborn. This great sword that crackles with black and white flame inside which you can see the twisted faces of the souls. It contains everybody give me perception checks. This was my mom's.

29. Wow, yeah, 17. Munchine, you see the image of Lydia Stormborn. Much like she did when you guys were battling glad is in the sword reaching out. Your mom's in here. Your mom's in that sword. Okay. Hey, mom, mama, mama. I reaching out.

Oh, I reached, I reach to my mom. You reach, you grab her, you pull her out and she emerges. You guys are in this crazy hole. You see she spider man really quick, puts her hands up against the mud here and hangs on and goes, oh my God, Alice, it's so good to see you. It's so good to see all of you.

Yeah, I'll just I'll just turn into an owl sweet fly up A pregnant owl so I have a nest of eggs. We made congratulations Moonshine and a bunch of eggs fly up Krakhan egg in that coffee

hard one you Hard one you fly up with your mom, and Bev you fly up on Jojo, and you see as soon as you reach the surface again, Lydia runs over to you, hard one and hugs you, and goes, Alice, I wanted to help you, but there are rules with Shadowfell, it's not as easy to travel out of here as it is. With the Feywild, This is the land of the dead

But still I knew that your hometown was in trouble So rather than bringing an army to the material plane. I brought them to me You see she takes her sword She plants it in the ground and in a flash Freeze hundreds of souls from the sword until this first ring of Deep Hollow is full of iron deep dwarfs. Like a army of infinite holding.

Yeah, including Grimthor McGannis holding his King's Hammer. They all look so frazzled and confused. And hard one, you flash back to this dream you had where Grimthor McGannis as he's falling is being swallowed by shadows and now you can actually see like a hand coming out and grabbing him and catching him and she goes I tried to get there during the attack but then the city was falling so I thought fast and I collected everyone into the sword but then rocks were falling down and we had a bunch of debris coming with us and I was almost crushed so I had to go into the

sword too but I figured you'd come looking eventually and you did and we're all here and everybody's okay damn mine you're too much you're you're too goddamn much uh she gives you a big hug um and you see the dwarves that are all around just go what the fuck is going on This goes everywhere Everyone starts freaking out and screaming and that's where we'll end our session My mom saved my people You got a sword hoard Hell yeah, my god what a heavy
