Welcome back to Bohumi everybody. You tired? Waking up. I'm waking up. It's a new year and waking up. Oh, okay. Technically, yawning is associated with being tired. Well, no, it's actually gasping for new oxygen new oxygen. Okay, exactly. No technical here. What don't you wake up? Don't you bolt up in bed and you go, oh what a good night sleep. That's what I was doing. I think he's bored, dude
Starting point is 00:01:56 I think he's bored, Merv I'm on dinner. I'm ready to go. You have something you need to say Tanner slap my face dude. All right. All right I'm on dinner ready to go. You got something you need to say Tanner? Slap my face dude, all right. All right, all right. Let's go. Shit, you just knocked his glasses off. Give me a second.
Starting point is 00:02:09 Anyway, I am joined of course by Jake Herwitz. Woo! Yeah, baby. My new thing is hissing, call their kill. Yeah. And then of course we've got Emily Axford. She who deathly sheared the rat Gromdol Brom's beard. Can I have me pet your call?
Starting point is 00:02:30 Woo, yeah! That's great, we're running out of dragon here. So we can use Gromdol's beard to knit new stuff. Yeah, you left in me narrating how I sheared the rat, right? Yeah, made a coat of it. Just a nude rat lying there dead. Can I have a rat? Yeah. Sure. Yeah. I have some leftover. And then of course we've got Caldwell Tanner. Oh, saw Bufo. And oh, wouldn't you know it's time for another frog fact. Most frogs hibernate
Starting point is 00:03:01 buried in the mud at the bottom of the pond. Instead of breathing with their lungs as they wouldn't the summer, they get oxygen they need by absorbing it through their skin from the surrounding mud. Additionally, much like trees, every time a frog goes into hibernation, a new layer of bone grows, you can count the rings to find a frog's age. What? It didn't rhyme. Wait, you can count the rings on a frog's bones to find out.
Starting point is 00:03:27 That is a dark found. It'll, that's not okay. It'll kill the frog. Don't do this. I'm not endorsing this. Clive attacks all. How old are you really? You have to be lying.
Starting point is 00:03:41 Surrender your age to me. You look so young. 49. Let's go ahead and do a little recap. What work did you add on? So last time you faced off against a juiced up grumbed ol' bronze beard and was got the teapot at the ready? No!
Starting point is 00:03:56 I just got the eye for that. You hear it? Same thing. You hear it, same behavior. Bottoms up. Go ahead. Let's hear it. Let's hear it a poor hold it up to the mic.
Starting point is 00:04:04 Cheers. Should I say that I watched Awesome Powers 3 last night? No. Before you ever saw the other two. It was a reference of Carl. The D&D court, when we were talking about Awesome Powers. OK, I'm messy. OK, she's watching them in the Myers-Per-Ford order, I believe.
Starting point is 00:04:20 Myers would never. He was descending order. I'll be seeing number two next. OK, great. Let's go ahead and do a little recap. So last time you faced off against a juiced up Gromdall bronze beard at Toy Box's Compound. After recklessly consuming a vial of Alexandra Tincture from Thoreau Crackarn, Gromdall used its power to amplify his control over animals, gathering an army of sea creatures
Starting point is 00:04:45 to the glass just outside the compound. As you watched in horror, Gromdahl gathered the life force of the animals around him, including Honey Suckle, absorbing them all into a whale and turning it into an ill-durch monstrosity, using the un... The Honey Suckle become so wee. He became... Wala, wala. Using the unnatural beast, Gromdahl smashed the glass and sent a tidal wave through a toyboxes mansion. Meanwhile, mind-controlled members of the inkling syndicate attacked from the gate as the puppets
Starting point is 00:05:18 defended themselves against the goons you did your best to help while battling Gromdahl and the monstrosity. Early on, Gromdol cornered Calli, but she was able to go invisible and escape to a nearby tree. As Calder went toe-to-toe with him and Saul helped the puppets, Calli was able to sneak in and deal some major damage. We also saw a new side of Rhearis who got peeved when he saw Saul grappled by the whale monstrosity. Yes, he was irked. Riaris joined the battle against the syndicate whose members began to look more and more like Eldritch horrors as Gromdall overloaded them with power.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Several times Gromdall's brought to the brink of death, but each time it managed to summon a surge of Alexandriaite magic to save himself, as he did a colder notice that he took on more Alexandria-like features entering some sort of data collection mode. Eventually, Grommdall was able to down-cald her and threaten his life, prompting Callie to reveal herself. The juiced up druid attacked her, but she weathered the blows and dealt a fatal one herself,
Starting point is 00:06:25 or more specifically, honey-suckle dealt the blow-like. Yeah, that's right. So it is hard out here. Yeah. Yeah. Very shagged, Ellen. And now we have to keep it in. That's insane. That absolutely sucks.
Starting point is 00:06:39 As Gromdall lay dying, once again, looking like Alexandra, a CaliCast detects thoughts and realizes that the AI was pulling from Gromdahl lay dying, once again looking like Alexandra, a callicast detects thoughts and realizes that the AI was pulling from Gromdahl's thoughts and memories, focusing specifically on his knowledge of the Feywild. After failing to take Sunaire or steal the powers of the C.L.V.S., Alexandra realized that she might have an easier time in the Feywild, where there'd be less resistance to the network, given that the people there were already magically connected by default. She knew she needed a plane our gate, and the closest is in the
Starting point is 00:07:11 frigid north, a giant rift between planes that is currently closed. The only key left on the material plane is called the Iceknife, a relic hidden below a village of the same name. As Cali relayed this to Calder, he confirmed that this was his hometown, but didn't know that the ice knife was an actual relic. Once Gromdall was dead, his army of Inklang Syndicate Goons died as well, and his claim over Honey Suckel was broken. The water outside the bubble darkened to look like the night sky, and you were visited by Oberon, who took Honey Sysuckle into the stars to protect him
Starting point is 00:07:45 but did send an avatar back to join you as the archfay disappeared. You were joined by souped up avatars of honeysuckle and licorice. And that's where we are now. Nice. So the night sky disappears and you are back in the wreckage of toy boxes compound with Kenna, Foster, and your serpents. They can now both be summoned like regular familiars with the fine familiar spell. And they've gotten a stat improvement. Oh! You leveled up our worms.
Starting point is 00:08:18 I think I look at Kolda and I say, I think I really need to try to teach you this spell. Hmm? Yeah, I'm ready. Colder sits down studiously, Chris Cross, Apple Sloth style. And I begin like a Dagger Dance. Yeah, as you guys take notes and are learning to find familiar spell from Callie, you guys are back in the wreckage of Toybox's compound with Kenna and Foster. It's just everything is fucking destroyed here. Yeah, this thing fell apart real quick.
Starting point is 00:08:48 Was there like some foundational issues or something? Yes, of course, I did not get it inspected by the city. Let's check out, yeah. But without comments. Of course. A lot of hidden tunnels under there. You look around and you do see that as we established the last episode,
Starting point is 00:09:02 the psychic wizards of Sunnare don't know all the goings on here in the entertainment district, but they definitely know when the airlock has been preached. So basically, like as soon as the battle was finished, they showed up and started using their telekinetic powers with great efforts to put the whale monstrosity back out into this sea and subsequently breaking the animals out of it, freeing them from this strange amalgamation. You see the frightened creature scatter as they emerge from the whales thick-hide.
Starting point is 00:09:33 How is the whale? You see the whales' eyes were glossy and had been glossy back when it was looking like a whale fall when Therocrac aren't heading under a spell. The whale suddenly gets clear-eyed, looks around kind of threatened at first. Can I cast Speak With Animals? Yeah. And I want to, in a coming soothing whale song,
Starting point is 00:09:56 tell it, don't worry, the threat is gone, and you're safe now. You walk up to the glass, and you hold your hand up, and you say that, and you see that the whale, it goes from looking kind of scared and confused to calm and kind of lowers itself so that it's giant eye, completely engulfs you from the other side to get a good look at you. Klaibe, you stills the instinctual fear of something so large, and I think I want to like, pet it through the glass. Yeah, you hold your hand out through the glass, and you see the whale kind of rides up along
Starting point is 00:10:43 it, and then swims next to it, and you see the whale kind of rides up along it and then swims next to it and you hear Friend of the wild Yes, and you see foster perks up and goes on your shoulder Another friends of the wild east with me Thank you for your help Well Well thank you for your strength. You fended off what you could. I could feel you fighting. I could feel you struggling. Yes I wasn't thrilled about being thrown on to dry land in the middle of wreckage and having to freak out and attack people. It's much better being in the water.
Starting point is 00:11:25 Well, regards you guys and Kenna and goes, You don't look like you're from under the sea, is this your final destination or are you going somewhere? No actually, we're going to the village of Iceknife. Up north, it's where he's from. Colder, don't be shy. Why are you pointing at me? Don't tell it to eat me. What did you say about me?
Starting point is 00:11:52 Yeah, I'm speaking in haunting whale song and pointing at other people. To haunting whale songs back and forth. You see that the whale is kind of excited to see Callie now. So it's weirdly bumping up against the glass. And you even see the seals nearby, be like, careful everybody. Just like see.
Starting point is 00:12:08 Just like see. Okay, we just fixed the glass. But she's saying, Callie. It's okay, we can mend it, it's okay. This is important, this is important. Just way, you said an important song. Callie puts up both of his hands. No, I have nothing, no ill will towards you.
Starting point is 00:12:22 I don't know what she's saying about me, but I'm cool. Kelly, did you befriend the whale? Yeah, I'm telling him that we're going up north to the village of Iceknife. Do you think the whale could carry the egg in its mouth? I feel bad asking him, but I'll bring it up. I completely put on a new posture and I'm like,
Starting point is 00:12:40 yeah, just going up north for whatever. That's a ride, I'm pointing to the egg. So the egg's out there. Oh, that's our ride, I'm pointing to nothing. Oh yeah, just heading up north, oh like whatever, I'm not going to do that. Where do you live? I live in the sea, I live around here. Yeah. Well I have.
Starting point is 00:13:01 Cool. I have friends and family, but I haven't seen them in a bit. Oh, yeah? A bit confused as to how I ended up here. Really? Where are they? I don't know. It feels like I just woke up from a terrible dream.
Starting point is 00:13:16 Wow. But I can talk to some of the other animals down here, or try to find some of my friends, and maybe we can get you an escort. That would be amazing. Totally not necessary, but amazing. Okay, well, if you don't need it, it's actually a pretty necessary, yeah. Well, thank you again. No, thank you.
Starting point is 00:13:38 I'll tell them to look out for what kind of ship do you have. Okay, so it looks like an egg with a hatch attached to it. That's embarrassing. It's quaint. Okay. Have you ever heard of like tiny homes? Mm-hmm. It's like a tiny ship.
Starting point is 00:13:57 Okay. Yeah, no, that's very trendy. I look back with panic. I'm losing it. I'm absolutely losing it. It's all whale song, but it seems so flustered Look I went fishing one time one time when I was a kid, but I threw everything back We didn't need any of the fish, okay
Starting point is 00:14:13 What is this guy's so threatening? I don't understand what he's saying. I like beef Chicken and beef he's sweating. He's covered in water, but I can tell a lot of it's sweat Okay, we'll we'll be on the lookout for an egg. Yeah, all the help my friends to be on the lookout. That'd be awesome. Thank you so much. We'll watch out for you. Great. Thank you. All right, well enjoy your freedom. Thanks. Okay, I hope you find your friends and family. Yeah, me too. Thanks, okay, I hope you find your friends and family. Yeah, me too. Yeah Where did you last see them? I don't know where I am right now
Starting point is 00:14:52 What's your name? Duncan? Duncan It was a whale song until the word Duncan Well Duncan, I'm gonna keep an eye out too for you. Okay, let me know. Okay. All right, bye, Duncan. Bye. Goodbye.
Starting point is 00:15:12 You said to me, yeah. You see, you do see a little bit of a happy ending. As the whale goes off, you suddenly hear a whale song in the distance that you still have speak with animals you hear. Duncan, is that you, what are you doing? Oh, thank God I was about to change course to try and help Dunkin' find his family. Okay, I don't get.
Starting point is 00:15:32 You hear Dunkin' kind of talking a little bit of shit. Okay, so hear me out, these people have this weird egg. You need us to watch out. They're really good people, they have an embarrassing shit. God, I hide this all. They're all really impressed by the egg. Wow. Yeah, I can hear their song.
Starting point is 00:15:48 It's so beautiful. Yeah, yeah, that's just, that's them describing the egg. Yeah, that's good. That's good craft bichip, the egg. Sturdy. Yeah. Solid. Perspective.
Starting point is 00:15:58 Yeah, you see that the wizards begin like collecting the bodies and stuff and begin to kind of turn them into regular sea elves, like hold their hands over them, begin casting spells, like minor healing bodies and stuff and begin to kind of turn them into regular CLs. Like hold their hands over them, begin casting spells, like minor healing spells and stuff. And as Rioris looks at the wreckage here, he looks sad as he sees all of these CLs that died, even though they were mixed up in this like inkling syndicate thing. And then after looking sad for a moment, you see he walks with like determination over to Toybox, who's already starting to like tinker
Starting point is 00:16:30 with some of his broken puppets. Hey man, you might have helped the city today, but you only did it to settle your own feud, and that's not cool. In fact, it takes me off. Oh, go off, Rihari. Yeah, you're over here, trying to learn how to live forever, Not cool. In fact, it takes me off. Oh, go off, Rihari. Yeah. You're over here, trying to learn how to live forever,
Starting point is 00:16:48 but you don't even know how to live now, okay? So I'm gonna be around checking up on you, right? Okay, yeah. Cause somebody's gotta take the vibe into their own hands. That's right. The vibe of a vendetta against the vibe. Hey, hey bud, come on, come on. I just go up and get a body between them,
Starting point is 00:17:05 but I'm letting Riharist do his thing. I just wanted to look more bad. Yeah. He's not worth it, dude. Sometimes you gotta kill the vibe to create a good vibe, okay? I realize that now. I realize that now. So I'm gonna be watching you, all right?
Starting point is 00:17:21 I'm gonna move in with the old guppies. I'm around now. Where did that come from? I'm around now. Rihar come from? I'm around now. Riharis, don't do anything crazy. Why? I gotta be around here. Surely we can find you a different apartment.
Starting point is 00:17:32 No, no, it'll be fine. So, I guess this is goodbye. You see, Riharis goes from being peeved to instantly weeping. Yeah, but hopefully it's not goodbye. It's see you later. See you later. Right, but also maybe we should sleep at the Grand Mariner tonight and leave first thing
Starting point is 00:17:54 in the morning. I just feel like the room is really nice. Oh yeah, do you want to just do one night at the Grand Mariner? I just want to do one night. I just want to do the penthouses open. We know that much. Ooh, okay.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Our whole still there. I I want to sneak in the grandmother We probably still my key card still works That'll happen today what a crazy like six seven hours should we invite the guppies as well? Why would we do that? I actually got to agree with Colton this one. Okay. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:18:30 We'll FaceTime, Mom. As Rihar's goes to join you guys with the Grand Mariner, now that the Syndicate is no more, the powerful psychic walls protecting the district are gone, and the Octo Magi can now more easily reach it. So you see some of the nearby water begins to gather and hover together. You see all these droplets in the air and takes the shape of a sea-elf-mage and this is the elemental water projection of Urcia and she looks around and goes, oh dear, this is terrible.
Starting point is 00:19:05 Yeah, you had a little rat problem, but we took care of it. So cheeky. I wink at Saul. So cute. He just, he's seen the crumpled, bloody body of this disgusting, wear rat, gromped-all bronze beard, just oozing strained goo, just been pumped with all these insane steroids, just bleeding out, stinking gunk. So fun.
Starting point is 00:19:35 And her seat goes, that's very funny. So I'll inflate his dimples and then push them in and cheeky little way. That's so cheeky. It's how we get by. You're not. Well, we owe you a great debt if it weren't for you. Alexandra could have spread enough influence throughout the entertainment district
Starting point is 00:19:54 that she may have threatened the whole city. I think we're good. I don't think I feel like I need you to speak about debts. Okay, well, we have done a couple things for you if that's okay. Well, you've only been here for a day, but we have been working on your ship. So you are welcome to stay here as long as you want, but it's at the docks whenever you're ready. And also we may do these because we know you're heading to the Furchard North, and I didn't
Starting point is 00:20:20 want to presuppose anything, but you're not dressed completely whether appropriate. I mean, if that's your vibe, if you would rather be cold or something, that's cool. Oh no, I was planning on knitting us a bunch of stuff. We don't need any other things you got. Um, wait. Wait. Hey.
Starting point is 00:20:35 Calder, you look at what Saul has knitted. Guaranteed death for Kenna, Cali, and Saul. Clipy looks at the knittedikini Top and tries to picture that. So I don't know if you've been cold before. Yeah, the dome is pretty temperature controlled, so no, not really. Yeah, we'll take everything that you've got, Ersia, thank you.
Starting point is 00:21:00 Yeah, you see, Ersia takes out a magic bag and pulls from it, and you see several coats and Thick clothing that can be worn over your armor and along with the thick cloth and it's vegan leather Vegan leather by the way, so don't be worried. That's really good. She's also included duck team tabords They're blue with a little white foster on the front They're blue with a little white foster on the front. Huh. Where, Edwards? Where?
Starting point is 00:21:26 Oh my god. How did you know that? It's the heart of us. I just got a vibe. Ah! Ah! She, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she of the ice knife. In my village, you have to bundle up in as much as you can. But yeah, you would wear a tabored over your armor. You wouldn't want that freezing, you know.
Starting point is 00:21:51 Okay. Thank you so much. Of course, thank you so much. And I guess I do have one last thing. We were planning on sneaking into the penthouse of the Grand Mariner, but maybe you could just get us the room. Sure, yeah. Cause that way we could get room service and we wouldn't have to pretend that we didn't
Starting point is 00:22:09 do anything. Yeah, cause we were gonna have to get room service from like one room down and then bring it up or shove it through. Yeah. It seems like a lot. And it would be awkward if like somebody booked the penthouse and we were just crashing in there. Oh, yeah. And paid for like an early check in and then we're there.
Starting point is 00:22:27 We have everyone could just kind of hang out. That might be fun. That can get a late check out too. Yeah, yeah, I don't necessarily work at the hotel, but I feel like I know. We just like pull some strings and we get the penthouse with room service and a late check out early check-in. We'll just be really friendly. Okay, yeah. Yeah, thank you. Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:47 Right, thank you. All right, I'll send a psychic message ahead. Thank you. We'll take care of the cost. Thank you. Yeah, and whenever you're ready, the egg, I believe you called it, is ready at the docks, but again, no rush.
Starting point is 00:23:03 Okay. Okay, one more little gift. Okay, okay, again, no rush. Okay, one more little gift. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. One more little gift. You see, she hands you a seashell. It's sort of got like orange and cream swirls on it. And she goes, this is good for three uses. You'll be able to speak into it and I'll hear it.
Starting point is 00:23:23 If you ever need the wisdom of the Octo Magi, if you need help with something with Alexandra's network or something, we were able to fight it off when she went after us directly. So we might have a bigger part to play in the fight to come. But please, if you need our help or if you just want to do like a weekly chat, please reach out. Okay, so the three charges are like replenishing
Starting point is 00:23:46 because we've recently run into that problem of like, it's just, well, I said weekly chat, but you'd probably need to be like every few months and then you'd have to come back here and get a new shell, maybe. What is it? It wouldn't be bad if it was it, right? Yeah, what is the name of this shell?
Starting point is 00:24:02 Does this artifact have a name? Not everything needs a name, so. That's a cell phone. Okay, the cell phone. Thank you. Thank you. I was secretly hoping that it was a voice about the cell phone.
Starting point is 00:24:14 Yeah, that was kind of cool. It was kind of cool. Can I be honest? Can I be honest? Yeah. I just did a surface level read on like what, and it was like really targeted just to see what you would want the
Starting point is 00:24:25 shoulder be called and I could tell that you wanted cell phone so it's the shelf. Okay I finally believe that you're psychic. Yeah so all is really forcefully mowling the word conk communication. You see she winces with pain grabs her head. Okay well I'll call ahead to the grand mariner. Thank you. All right. Thank you so much. See she begins lightly weeping. I guess this is see later. Yeah, see later but it's also speak to you soon because we've got your show. Yeah, come get later. We've got the cell phone. Excuse me? What? She brings you guys in for a hug as she once again grabs her head as if she has appeared in her head.
Starting point is 00:25:07 It was so good to have you here. It was so good to be here. It was so nice to meet you. You guys have a really great whimsy going on down here. Thank you so much. I'm so sorry about the psychic gang that attacked you. No, the ratio of people trying to kill us here is way less than it really has been nice. I know that you think that this hasn't been a vacation,
Starting point is 00:25:26 but it has. Okay, good, great. Yeah. Colder, is it gonna be this whimsical up at the village of the ice knife? They chipper bunch? Colder thinks about the howling winds of the winter and how you can't survive outside at night.
Starting point is 00:25:42 And he says, maybe. Okay. I thought so. I felt like anywhere you came from You can't survive outside at night and he says, maybe. I thought so. I felt like anywhere you came from must be so fun and playful. He just kind of throws snowballs at people and they like that a lot. It's like a fun, it's like you're greeting. For sure. Different than you think, but you see,
Starting point is 00:26:03 Ersia, yes, sense is called or is anxiety and turns to you guys and goes, everyone just be so careful out there. And this knitwork is wonderful, Saul. Yeah. Just wear it on top of the other stuff. That's perfect. That'd be wonderful.
Starting point is 00:26:17 That is good. We need spoffs. And careful with the snowball fights because it is quite icy up there. Oh, yeah. Okay. There's not a lot of powder. It's a lot of sharp, sharp,
Starting point is 00:26:25 it's a vise, rock, yeah. Yeah, interesting. Well, I'll let you be on your way. Great. I mean, what do you both think? I mean, Kolda, how do you feel? We're making all these plans to go to the Grand Mariner, but you want to just head out.
Starting point is 00:26:41 I mean, I could use a rest, I think, slipping in the penthouse, collecting ourselves before, head into the dock, that sounds nice. Okay. Maybe some room service. I mean, I would love for like a little download about like your family
Starting point is 00:26:54 and just like the frigid north in general, about like what ice knife is like? For sure, for sure. I think you really have to experience it firsthand to get a good grasp, but. We are going to be doing that, but like but is there anything that we should know about your family like topics that we shouldn't bring up or which of your brothers is the cutest? Sorry, what did you say, Saul?
Starting point is 00:27:17 Which of your brothers is the cutest? Well, they're identical twins, so I don't think you don't want to be cuter than the other. Okay, they're both... They're both... Interested. They're both fine looking, I think. Great. Yeah, no need to do dibs. Yeah, I know, right? What are you guys talking about?
Starting point is 00:27:31 It's not like how he holds hands and makes play-offs. Why are you looking at each other like that? There's going to be so much drama out of this trip. I'm living for it. I will say that having looked at the eggs navigation, we have not gotten very far. So I do imagine that even with a boosted up egg, we probably still will take a few days for us
Starting point is 00:28:01 to get to the frigid north. We're probably only like 10, 20% of the way there. So it'll take a few days for us to get to the fridge at North, we're probably only like 10, 20% of the way there. So it'll take a couple of days. Even if it's three or four times as fast, we'll get there a couple of days. So let's just check in long enough to get room service and then head out. Right, yeah.

Starting point is 00:33:10 Thank you so much. Of course, yet they were sort of being held out by the criminal syndicates down there, but I'm sure they'd love to take over management. Yeah, maybe after we leave, maybe after we leave. Yes. All right, I can put in a call to them. That'd be great. Yeah, that's great.

I told you, finicky eat Gators, shalt water. God. You don't have like a lift to be 200 years old. Of course, it takes really bad if he dies.
Starting point is 00:37:12 Really? Why? So don't let it die. That's a good start for any parents. I look at Gunk and I say, what do you want to eat, kid? See, the little guppy just swims up to the side and gives you the stink eye, just this little green fish with beady little eyes
Starting point is 00:37:29 and a big sad mouth. Are you mad at me? So like chicken nuggets? Rrrrrrr. I start just dangling food into the bowl. Give me a persuasion check with disadvantage. Okay. Finished.

Yep, I run outside the airlock, change the water, come back. See, Riaris puts his hand on your guy's shoulders. I can take this on if that would be better for you guys. And if you think it might be better for Gunk, I know you guys are on the run.
Starting point is 00:38:28 I think I kind of want Gunk, but I'm a little worried that Gunk is gonna just freeze when we go up north. Yeah, look after Gunk for us till we get back. Yeah, I don't think we could put a heart on Gunk. Just another reason for you guys to come back soon. I hand over Gunk, but I'm shaking. Like I've already formed a bond. You can't hold it.
Starting point is 00:38:50 You see, can't put your hand on your shoulder. We're gonna miss you, gunk. I snatch gunk. I snatch gunk. Well, we'll bring them up to the room for the room service at one last feast, don't you think? I want to try something real quick. We'll hang out with them for a bit.

It's really changed the world. He's the only just bad, you know what I'm saying? I'm just saying, I'm just saying, I'm just saying,
Starting point is 00:39:28 I'm just saying, I'm just saying, I'm just saying, you see Gung? Gung? Flipped back up and just kind of looks pissed off. I come back in, I push soul really hard. Ah ha ha. What are you doing? I just are a fat, you're right.
Starting point is 00:39:37 Yaris, clearly, we are not ready for a child. I think that you, as the guardian of the vibe, this is part of your charge. This is part of your, let's keep the vibe. We're not ready. You're not ready. I just did cheese. You did beer.
Starting point is 00:39:49 I know. I know. Just keep the vibe going. Okay, let's get up to that hand. I was gonna figure it out. Okay, let's get up to the penthouse. Yeah, we got it. Come on, gunk.
Starting point is 00:39:58 You guys get up to this penthouse that looks out into the ocean. And you can see all these fish. Now, free of Gromdahl's influence, sort of swim around happily. You can see the neon of the city and the distance, all these colorful lights that cascade into this big circular room. Are there any like expensive penthouse snacks like a Toblerone bar or fancy nuts?
Starting point is 00:40:23 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you find it. I tried to feed a gunk again. Yeah, of course. But yeah, animal handling or persuasion check with disadvantage. Okay, that's a little bit better. I love the gunk mini game. 14.
Starting point is 00:40:34 14. You see that gunk sniffs a Toblerone bar. Okay, okay. What about are there any like healthy granola bars? A little bit. a little bit. Go ahead and give me an animal handling our persuasion check with disadvantage. Dirty 20. Okay, gunk begins eating the granola bar.
Starting point is 00:40:53 Okay, hi. It just wanted something nourishing. I don't know if that's good for me. It's just been born. It's been born. It knows, insincerely, that I need this. They all know what they want indeed. You guys begin helping Riara set up.
Starting point is 00:41:06 You see, he keeps looking over at you guys and nodding with tears in his eyes. I show you don't want to join us. You know? I mean, it seems like you got tasked with a very important mission here. I do kind of have to keep the vibe going. I'm a little bit worried about toy box. And I do. I want to make sure that if there's bad vibes
Starting point is 00:41:25 We kill those vibes and we bring them back to good vibes And I don't want to make you guys feel less special, but I do have I do have like 1200 extremely close friends Okay, you feel the sense like when anybody goes out of town. Yes You must have a wedding every single week. I do How fun is that? Is there a wedding happening here tonight? Yes Okay, yeah, the open mics are mostly people trying out their made of honor Man's Really, yeah, it's beautiful. I wish I could say God I would love it. So we should definitely dip before it gets started for sure
Starting point is 00:42:01 I would love it. So we should definitely dip before it gets started for sure. Riar, I will say though, if toybox deviates, if he gets up to anything, let us know because I've been developing this weird sort of connection to death and dying and living and what he's doing, it worries me. It feels unnatural. I know he's trying to help people, but it's easy to lose yourself when it comes to life and death like that. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:29 Well, if the vibe is off, next time you guys come by, we'll just have to turn it back on. Yeah, just conscious me if you need me, you know. Okay, I don't have a cell phone. Because you don't have a cell phone? No, I don't like all that scrolling stuff. God, you're so cool.
Starting point is 00:42:44 Hi. I feel like Sunara's in really good hands. Thank you, thank you. Because you don't have a shower? No, I don't like all that shit going on. You're so cool! How? I feel like Sunara is in really good hands. Thank you. Thank you. We're going to miss you, but I'm going to take your vibe with me. I'm going to try to channel Riaris everywhere we go. Yeah. I give you a deep hug.
Starting point is 00:42:59 As I hug him, I'm just going to do a quick slight vent. Look, I creep. What? for what? You don't get to know. What? What? You leave him something or steal something. Are you not gonna tell me?
Starting point is 00:43:15 Yeah. Okay. I mean, if you false me too, I will. No, okay, so Raris doesn't, doesn't clock it right now, but more of his friends and family begin to join in here as the night goes on. All right, I guess we're head out, right? Yes.
Starting point is 00:43:31 Yeah. Colds are lead the way. We're going to your home. Right. Can you inherently sense it? Yeah, I think I can get us to the docks just because I'm pretty sure I saw them coming in. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:43 He's amazing. Sweet. The tram takes you to the main pillar. And from there, you get to the docks just because I'm pretty sure I saw them coming in. He's amazing. Sweet. The tram takes you to the main pillar and from there you get to the docks and you can also see the smoky arcane air lock that will eventually take you out of the city. Amongst the various subs that you see dock tier, you find a bunch of these dock mages working on the egg. You see they've taken the egg, the big metal ball now looks souped up, looks like it's got a nice spit shine
Starting point is 00:44:10 and it now has four new golden thrusters. Oh! And as you approach an excited deck wizard walks up to you, wiping his brow and he goes, hey, I don't know that we met when you came in, but it was such a pleasure to work on your ship. My name's Corey. Oh, hey, hey Corey.
Starting point is 00:44:30 Do you know Riaris? Of course, I love Riaris. Yeah. Dear friend, I haven't seen him in a day and a half. Oh, bring it in. I'm getting here. He's hosting an open mic over at the granddad. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:44:40 Well, as soon as I get off work, I'm gonna go buy. Yeah. It's also an orgy and five weddings. Great. Okay, that as soon as I get off work I'm gonna go buy it's also an orgy and five weddings Great, okay, that sounds yeah typical Tuesday night So tell us about what you've done to the egg. Okay. Well, let me show you how this works So this isn't full on magitech, but it is just as effective We've got these power cells you see he pulls out a green orb that is pulsating with magical energy. Well, the power cells can convert magic that would normally only be able to target a creature
Starting point is 00:45:10 and it turns it into a fuel source for a vehicle. So we've got 10 of them here inside the vehicle's engine. They've got a mix of haste and extra-distorted treat in them for now. So they're going to significantly boost your speed. A couple cells will burn out every day, but you can store your own spells in them. So they're reusable, really good for the environment. They should get you. I heard you guys were going to the frigid north, should get you there in just a few days. Amazing. Thank you. Thank you. Of course. And Ursula came by, she said you might stop by and to give you two shells. Ah! Can I?
Starting point is 00:45:46 Yeah, come on, both of you, and I'll look at them first. Hands, two shells to you, Calder. Can I tell which one is which? Go ahead and give me an arcana check. Can I have my shell, dude? One second. That's a 17. OK, your 99% sure that the one in your right hand
Starting point is 00:46:02 is the real shell phone that has one charge in it, and the other one is just a colorful shell. Okay. That looks like a shell phone. Damn, yours is really cool, so. Oh, wow, look at this. I had one of my left hands. I don't use it right away. I put up my ear and say, hey, Consulator, right?
Starting point is 00:46:16 That doesn't count, right? One last thing I need to do, I realize I still haven't gotten hats for igneous and L-sours. They're like a hat shop anywhere. You can just have my hat and take off as Wizard Hat and put it on your head. Oh my gosh. This is this is perfect You guys you guys need more hats. Yeah more deck mages come out and start putting hats on you guys a lot of hats Perfect. Yeah. Yeah, this is perfect. I was afraid we're gonna have to go hat shopping Yeah, you know what? I actually have some stuffy wizard robes that that would go really well with so yeah, I'll take it and you know what
Starting point is 00:46:46 um if you give us something we should give you something and return as much as it pains me you see she takes the knit cover off her hammer this was given to me by a dear friend and as much as a brave dwarf and warrior likes to hide her war hammer I would like to pass it on to you. I'm gonna quick give her a bottle of inspiration in case she needs to do a deception. Ken is, Ken is correct. I also have a pair of knit boots that I feel may actually be they may be too warm for the frigid north. That's good. These selfless socks. Kina, you're leveling up with a squire. I'm so proud of you. She nods, the wizard goes, oh I couldn't possibly and kind of goes, yes you
Starting point is 00:47:39 could. And you must forcefully put the boots and the cover into the tank with your pants. I can make a new one so quickly. That's okay. It's really, it's a bigger sacrifice if there was just the one. I just already got ideas for a new version. It's one of a kind. One of one. You just, that is my gift to you.
Starting point is 00:48:02 Yes. I saw this gift on Future Relic. There you are. You know what? I actually have a project I need you to work on for me. I'll tell you about I saw this gift to you. It's a future relic, there you are. You know what, I actually have a project I need you to work on for me. I'll tell you about it later. Okay, great. Okay, so no need, right? Alright, help me busy, I guess.
Starting point is 00:48:12 Okay. Kind of squeezes her own legs. I was, but I'm trying to help you. Oh, okay, I didn't know. I didn't know. I thought you were in with him. That was a little slow. I'm trying to help you.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Okay, well, it's not going to go. You guys are holding hands and making plans for something. I don't know. I thought a baby you were in with him. That was no. I'm trying to help you. Okay, well, I'm not gonna go. You guys are holding hands and making plans for something. I don't know what's going on. It's great. Sometimes you're on the same side, sometimes you're not. Yeah, you're probably put like three or four poms on the new one. Mm-hmm. So as the dock wizards take their,
Starting point is 00:48:37 I call them dock and deck wizards. Doesn't really make a difference. Deck, I guess, would be like on the deck of the ship and dock would be like they work on the dock. So they're both. Hey, Murph, we're the dick wiz deck of the ship and dock would be like they work on the dock. So they're both, hey, Merfr, the dick wizards. Yeah. Shut the fuck up. Sorry, this is serious DNA dude dude.
Starting point is 00:48:51 I'm looking for the dick wiz. Oh, you laugh when she says it. That's in the entertainment district. So you guys get access to the egg and as you go inside, you see that not only have they souped up the outside, but they've redone the inside as well. It's got the cosmetic overhaul. Oh my god.
Starting point is 00:49:14 Vegan leather seats, the cold fluorescent glow has been replaced by a comforting purple light, the dashboard in control. Look at this, Godzilla. Now have sick, like LED looking lights behind them. Everything's automatic. This is pretty sweet. I sit down and I start to drive it about. Sweet. Yeah, you get in the captain seat here. And as you guys get inside and settle, you see that from the outside of the deck majors use their telekinetic powers to move you from the
Starting point is 00:49:42 dock to the gate of the magical airlock. There is this foggy entrance that you cannot see beyond because of a powerful magical barrier, but once you cross the threshold, you are thrust back out into the sea. You see the beautiful lights of the city reflecting out onto the gorgeous sea life, colorful coral, and floating solar fish. The whale and its buddies look ready to escort you, and Kenna looks at you, Calli, and goes, should we hit the gas?
Starting point is 00:50:11 I look at everyone. I say yes. Yeah, I was in the bathroom. By the way, we have real toilets now. They're not just holes in the floor anymore. Yeah, yeah. I didn't hear a flush, though. Ha, ha, ha.
Starting point is 00:50:22 Saul darts his tongue with the bathroom. Oh, my God. Ha, ha, ha,arts his tongue with a bathroom. Ha ha ha ha. Oh my gosh. Ha ha ha ha. Can I vomit? I know it's brand new, but I still wouldn't lick it. Ha ha ha. Kali pulls the lever and you guys rock it out, heading north,
Starting point is 00:50:37 moving at about four times the speed that you were before. Woo. And so many knots. As the outside world around you begins to blur and you move through the sea, you make your way towards the frigid north. You do see that there is a bit of an navigation system here. You've got like this rudimentary world map
Starting point is 00:50:55 on this like very old interface. And through it, you can see a layout of the frigid north. Frostwind is the only city up there, but it's not the closest docking point to the ice knife. With a vehicle your size, with a vehicle the size of the egg, you can actually get deeper into the continent via one of like the wider rivers that would go into like a bay or something like that. Oh, look at that. And you guys could probably find a harbor that is way closer. Okay. So we'll be taking this thing into the river. As we're going, I'm going to look at
Starting point is 00:51:30 um, Coddur and Saul and Kenna and say, I have a little compassion. I might have made a foolish mistake and I produce what I stole from Riharis and it is gone. Oh, did you get granola bars? I'm so sorry, I wasn't ready to say goodbye. Honestly, call the... I don't think you either. Call the Rih's giddy with excitement and trying to hide it.
Starting point is 00:52:01 Kelly, this was really irresponsible. It's an infinite group decision. Give me a sweet heart and a little beauty. Call their hugs, Kelly. Oh, thank you. This was great, Kelly. I definitely wanted a second chance at parenting. Come here, little guy. Yeah, you see a gunk, this tiny little fish just looks grumpy sitting there in the... I know he's not the right time, but it never is right That's what they say Yeah, look this tank fits in the cup holder It's perfect. I did I felt bad about taking stuff, but I did take more granola bars from the baby bar
Starting point is 00:52:37 so I Donate the Time she she takes out the granola bars and puts them down That is hot. That is hot. She takes out the granola bars and puts them down. I call their crumbles one up and drops it in the tank. Great. Go ahead and give me, now you can do animal handling with flat.
Starting point is 00:52:52 I'll give him guidance. I'll give Botic inspiration. Oh my God. 26. Wow. Okay. Gunk eats a full granola bar. Wow.
Starting point is 00:53:02 I bet he likes it. I don't know if it's good for a lady. Oh, that's going to be so much poop. I should have dropped half of that in. You just swallow a don't think that was crazy. Is this going to be as big as whole guppy? Eventually, hopefully not like in a week. Maybe it's like snails that we have to keep trading
Starting point is 00:53:23 of for bigger and bigger things. Wow, this is a big commit there. Okay, it's got way more teeth than I would think. Yes, so beside you have razor sharp teeth. And I think so if you wanted to knit something, I could use like a little bendle so I could sort of dangle his tank from my sword. From your sword? Yeah. That seems dangerous. Like a little sword beorn? Yeah. Okay. I'll work on that. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:53:52 Just when you're walking around, I'm sorry, I thought I was way too good. So just as a squire, require a day to say, if I think that's, you're gonna smash. Honestly, it's good. I'm have to make sure like, if we get into unexpected battle to like. I don't have to hold the gun.
Starting point is 00:54:04 Yeah. Okay. Maybe it'll be good. I mean, to make sure like if we get into unexpected battle to like I'd have to hold the gun. Yeah Yeah, maybe it'll be good I mean because again, we don't want gunk to grow up and turn it old guppy like while we're on the ship Why he was so happy so maybe Guncle freeze and then be like cryogenically frozen essentially we can just fall him but later That's great. That's great. Hey there. Nad pulls this episode is brought to you by Wildgrain. Wildgrain is the first ever bake from frozen subscription box for sourdough breads, fresh pastas, and artisanal pastries. Every item baked from frozen in 25 minutes or less, no thawing is required.
Starting point is 00:54:42 The team at Wildgrain just sent us a brand new box and there's so much delicious stuff inside. Let me tell you all about it. They sent me some pasta, some sourdough, some croissants, and everybody knows I'm a croissant head and they were delectable.

Starting point is 00:55:40 Hey folks, Paw will here with a quick question for you all. Have you ever subscribed to a service or streaming site and then forgot to cancel it? Then, months later, found out even paying money for that service this entire time? I know I have. A few years ago, I bought a Goku box, which is like a Roku box, but it only shows you pictures of Goku from Dragon Ball Z. The photos are great, but unfortunately my life got busy and I've just barely used the service at all. Luckily Rocket Money was there to help save me from my Super Saiyan Blunder.
Starting point is 00:56:11 Rocket Money is a personal finance app that finds and cancels your unwanted subscriptions. Monitor's your spending and helps lower your bills. It can't show you pictures of Goku, which is a shame, but apparently your phone could do that, so me subscribing to an app on a set top box was totally unnecessary. Hindsight I guess. Rocket money has over 5 million users, and to help save its members an average of $720 a year, with over 500 million in cancel subscriptions. So don't be like me. Stop wasting money on things you don't use.
Starting point is 00:56:44 Cancel your unwanted subscriptions by going to rocketmoney.com slash pop-off. That is rocketmoney.com slash pop-off. One more time, rocketmoney.com slash pop-off. Thanks again. See you later. As sweet so you guys do have a few days of downtime as you travel. Is there anything you would like to do as you head towards the frigid north? It's actually something I wanted to try. I'm thinking back to when we opened that portal to the astral plane with the help of the serpents.
Starting point is 00:57:15 I was wondering if Calderon Callie wouldn't want to try doing a dual serpent summon to try and juice my connection to the fungal network. Because I'm really worried about swag. And honestly, all the other clones that might still be out there. Okay, so I wanna kinda just end up like a sonar pulse with my fungal ability.
Starting point is 00:57:37 Okay? Go ahead and do a, we can say like wisdom save, anything that you have proficiency in that would make sense for this. You could do nature or you can say like wisdom, save, anything that you have proficiency in that would make sense for this. You could do nature, or you could do like a wisdom save and you do it advantage. These guys will be helping you. Nice.
Starting point is 00:57:52 Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Ha-ha. So that is a natural one and then a 17. Okay. Becomes a 22. Okay. Are you guys summoning honey suckle and liquorice here?
Starting point is 00:58:04 Yeah, I think I like, I help Calder try and go through the motions to find Steve. Yeah, you guys say, I'll say you guys take a few days. Yeah, I think that's what I would spend my time doing is like teaching find Steve to Calder. Nice, great. And I'm just practicing find Steve. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:22 Over and over again, practicing this. Meanwhile, Saul is using this connection to this wild magic, this connection to the beastlands to try to connect to the fungal network and connect to Swag who he has an obvious connection to. And Saul, as you meditate and try to link up with Swag, you are not able to link up with swag, you are not able to reach him. You know that he is far away.
Starting point is 00:58:51 You know that the mothership submersible was heading north, was heading towards the frigid north. And it's been doing that for a few days. You can assume it's a hell of a lot faster than the egg was, probably faster than the egg even is now So swag is far away. You don't feel a connection to him. You don't know where he is. Oh, but you feel a bad omen Oh, you feel
Starting point is 00:59:17 bad Just bad just bad vibes bad vibes Okay BAD VIVES! Oh... Okay, uh... Saul goes to his bedroom. I just gotta sit for a second. I'll knock on the door. Saul, are you okay? I'll sidle up to the door as well.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Yeah, bud. I can feel him. But the only thing I can feel is that things aren't right. Where is he? I... As far as I can feel is that things aren't right. Where is he? I... As far as I can tell he's... It's somewhere in the frigid north, but... I can't sense anything beyond that.
Starting point is 00:59:52 I can't really sense anything. The only thing I'm sensing is that things aren't right. Is he... Is he in the village of Iceknife? Is that any chance? Would I be able to sense that? You... You can't sense it, but given what you know, you know that they were heading to the frigid north, originally the reason they were going to the frigid north
Starting point is 01:00:13 was to go to Frostwind and maybe try to take it over, but they have since pivoted to want to go to the ice knife. And you know that swag had some semblance of his own will because he did leaves behind some clues for Saul, but it does appear that he boarded the mothership submersible with everybody else and likely went to the Ferdinand North. I'm already slosing himself. I don't know if there's going to be anything left by the time we get there. We're moving as fast as we can.
Starting point is 01:00:43 We've got all the thrusters on this thing firing. Yeah, we're doing our best. We'll get there, so. I think I just need to spend this time training, just trying to learn everything he knew, so that I can face whatever we see when we get there. I think that's a really good constructive plan. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:03 Salt puts on some really sad music and starts lifting weights. Just listening to Phoebe Bridgers and getting shredded. And we put kettlebells in this thing. Park, if this kettlebell, so I'm getting in on it, do you want a training partner, or do you want to be by yourself? Salt chucks a kettlebell at you.
Starting point is 01:01:22 I take it to the face and then start to get lifting. Kettle it to the face and then start. I can't let you say kettlebell fight. I think that's gonna be good preparation for the snowballs. So it uses different missiles on kettlebells, sweet. You guys take some time, you train, you do have a couple of days, is there anything else you would like to do? I will say, call her, go ahead and give me
Starting point is 01:01:42 a Arcona check to see if you learn the fine familiar spell. I will be giving him bots again. Of course. It's a 21. Okay. On the first day, which of these serpents would you like to summon? And I'll say Callie can summon the other one.
Starting point is 01:01:58 You are a quick learner. Oh, I'm very studious. And you're a good teacher, Kelly. Thank you. I think I'll summon licorice. Great. You hear a distant, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, sh, shh, shh, sh you and gets up in like this cobra position looking protective. Emily has licorice's new stats and licorice used to just be able to levitate but can fly
Starting point is 01:02:30 now. He can fly! And he has a lightning breath and he's got an armor class of 17 and he has 45 hit points. Beep for your beepie. That's a thick snake. Beepie little snake. And while we're at it, I summon Honey Suckle. Honey Suckle has an AC of 19, has 65 hit points. He can charge and he can also go. Well, no, no. You see, there's a grip as if he's burrowing through space itself. It appears under cally. He is a lot bigger than Licorice.
Starting point is 01:03:05 Not only that, but Honey Suckel can carry multiple of you guys and not slow down. He has an ability that allows him that if he can physically carry it, then he is not slowed down by it. And he's unaffected by difficult terrain. And he's unaffected by difficult terrain. So if he were to pull a sledge or a wagon or something like that
Starting point is 01:03:25 He could just go as fast as he was normally going. I took him a kettlebell He eats the kettlebell Really have so many of those She starts to get a taste for them There's a bunch, but there's not that many okay. We need to take not a few Try to eat the exercise equipment. Start wrestling with you. Ram, good, that's a hit workout.
Starting point is 01:03:50 Sweet, you guys train for a couple days. You guys are getting ready. You learn the fine familiar spell. Is there anything you guys want to do? So you can add that to your spell list, too. Yup, fuck yes. And I think, like, ascolder is looking at Gunk and looking at Likrish and Honey's Circle.
Starting point is 01:04:10 And Foster. And Foster. We all zoo. Thanks, Lulie. Thanks, Ineer. We built a zoo. He really does smell bad. Everyone's using the same litter.
Starting point is 01:04:19 That's some of us forget to flush. Looks at salt. Salt darts his tongue again. What? I'm sorry, of the square. I should really be flushing forever. No, no, no, no. Okay.
Starting point is 01:04:32 You're promoted from whatever that is. Okay. That's not square work. I just assumed, I don't know. Albin and I used to just let it mellow and sometimes I forget. Right. It's just, you know, okay.
Starting point is 01:04:44 But I think now that I have these things that I feel so fiercely protective over, I'm like thinking about my childhood for the first time in a new light. Yeah. And I think I still have like a little bit of a chip on my shoulder that I didn't get to fight my own battles and at the same time I'm remembering that my brothers bullied me at home but stood
Starting point is 01:05:07 up for me at school and I'm thinking that I understand where where my mom and my family were coming from. Yeah, you think back and you've sent some letters along and stuff and your mother has sent you some stuff back when you're in Esri but you haven't been home in how many years would you think it's been, I would say it's been at least three. Yeah, I was thinking like, I was almost thinking like five to ten years. Yeah. Wow. You've been gone a while and you're a decent amount younger than your brothers.
Starting point is 01:05:38 Your brothers are probably like ten years older than you. So you were a pretty late addition to the family. So your parents are a bit older and your mom was like the Ranger General was like the lead of Ranger out there. And you would think in the past five to 10 years, she was starting to slow down when you left and you think it's likely that there may have been a shift since you've been gone, you are likely to go back to a very different ice knife.
Starting point is 01:06:09 Okay, so I'm picturing like a chalkboard with all of the names and like their jobs and occupations written on it so that we can like really internalize all this and make a good impression on Calder's family. Yeah. And I guess I'm telling you guys at the same time like, so this is everything as I remember it
Starting point is 01:06:25 These are all my family connections, but a lot of this is gonna feel brand new for me too Do you think that you'll look different to them? Do you think you physically grown up all gotten buffer or is like is your hair longer? I didn't have the beard But that's a striking difference. Yeah. And I feel like when you stand next to me, it makes you look taller. So like I'll come in side by side with you and that'll like really be a good optical illusion.
Starting point is 01:06:53 Not that you need that. Yeah, well I never felt very big standing next to my brothers or standing near my mom. But I don't know that anything's gonna fix that. It's not a forgiving place. It's a hard way of living, and I don't know if we'll be comfortable there, but my folks will try. I honestly like novelty more than I like comfort anyway, so that's gonna be there. I'll be fine. Thank you, though. Yeah, I've never experienced below freezing temperatures.
Starting point is 01:07:27 I should be fine. It's really pretty warm. Yeah, what, what, Kolder looks at the knit crop top sols wearing. Yeah, you'll be good. It's ball me in here. Yeah. Can I have you ever read about the ice knife?
Starting point is 01:07:45 I haven't read about the ice knife, no, sorry. It sounds like from what you've shared that the ice knife is kind of a equivalent to what the Kigshaver was for the dors, which it was not only a powerful weapon, but kind of could act as a key to the play-daw rift there. Out in the frigid north, there's basically this big rift that looks kind of like the northern lights
Starting point is 01:08:11 and you can access the, the, the say wild more commonly but you might be able to get to the astral plate or something as well. It's basically like this big gate. Wow. Okay. I still can't believe it was a relic. I thought it was just the name of a waterfall.
Starting point is 01:08:25 Yeah. It's a good name for a waterfall, too. I think I'll maybe like prepare for this by kind of playing some of my mother's music and maybe seeing if that allows me to enter sort of like a wintry phase. Yeah. Yeah, Kelly, do you play any instrument or anything as you do this or are you just kind of singing? I guess all I have is bird pipes, so I can't sing and play them. Yeah, so you kind of just take a little time to yourself, sing a little bit, and some of
Starting point is 01:08:56 your new oceany alladrin begins to freeze over again. Okay. And maybe becomes more of like ice and frigid instead of like snowy Okay, call her you mentioned that your mom was a ranger. What about your your dad? My dad was a ranger as well. He's not working these days. He's a More of a home buddy. Okay, so as far as like throw snowballs at don't throw snowballs at this is for the truck No, I would definitely not. Okay. So kind of a grumpy guy. Maybe grumpy guy.
Starting point is 01:09:29 And then you say your brothers are guy with it. Gregor, what do you think about throwing snowballs at them? Yeah. What's the snowball? What's the snowball situation? Yeah, I think well, yeah, they used to like roll me up in the snow and pretend I was a snowman. So I tell you what I'd find a funny. So I tell you, it was a fight of funny.
Starting point is 01:09:46 Yeah. It was a funny for you. It's negative 50 degrees outside. You really don't want to be out there for tea. Oh, definitely. Okay, yeah, okay. Is that cold? I don't believe it.
Starting point is 01:09:56 Okay. You know what? Yeah, you can choke a snowball at Gregor. Yeah. I'll put that on the list. Greg, make it progress. Yeah, I think, as you remember back, Gregor is the younger twin,
Starting point is 01:10:09 so even though just born literally like a couple minutes later, still has a little bit of a middle child syndrome, so can get jealous and was maybe, I wouldn't go as so far to say that he was cruel. But definitely is more mean, spirited than Gowen, whose tactics with you were overly protective. Whereas Gregor was a little bit meaner.
Starting point is 01:10:32 Okay. And any, any friends that you remember, any, any like classmates or buddies that we should try and hook up with? That try to hook up with. What do you mean? I'm sorry. I miss just called. Look how the trip is. This one wasn't me. We've been on a stinky egg for two days. Yeah, and why is it stinky? I think I had some friends at school, but I think mostly, mostly we're a tight knit family. And, and I don't know how much, how much time we're going to get to spend in the town. If, if we're really just there to grab this knife and, right, get on to the Feywild probably a couple hats as well. Yeah. Yeah. Right. So what are two hats?
Starting point is 01:11:19 After a few days of travel, you guys finally see the seascape begin to change. You have to pay more attention to the controls of the sub as you begin having to weave in and out of icebergs. Under the water here, the packed white snow and frost takes on a light blue hue. And above you, you can see chunks of ice blocking out the sunshine and creating these dark patches. At first, the icebergs are few and far between as you approach the frigid north, but they eventually become so frequent
Starting point is 01:11:49 that you're having to slalom between them and follow the map to find a wide enough river to take you to the closest harbor to the ice knife, which is still gonna be like a couple days hike, but it's this area called Flurry Harbor. Eventually the egg has to surface since the water isn't as deep here. And you see from your viewing window,
Starting point is 01:12:13 these massive glaciers and fresh blue water, chunks of ice and snow that are home to the occasional animal like seals or polar bears. You're having to slow down because you're weaving around chunks of ice here and the sun begins to set on another day, falling behind the mountains as you reach this harbor at sundown. And as you pull onto the small rocky beach here, everybody go ahead and get me perception checks. 11. 10. 13. Got it.
Starting point is 01:12:45 You guys, look through the viewing window. And as you pull up, you see a small fishing village. I say small, but it does look like it was built for giants. So just a few homes, but they're kind of big. Basically, the river gives way to a horseshoe-shaped rock beach. There's a small single dock that's been beaten down by time, spots of mold and fungus barnacles, but it looks like it's holding up well enough. And up on the land, you see snow covered ground and evergreen trees, little bits of green pine poking out from under all the white.
Starting point is 01:13:18 There is a little watch tower looking out over the river, but it is not lit up. And there are a few of these stone cottages set up on stilts, presumably to prevent flooding if the water comes in too far. And there are also a few dinghy's and some fishing equipment out here, but you do not see any people. And it doesn't look like this village is completely derelict, like it's been abandoned for a while. Is there a periscope on this egg?
Starting point is 01:13:47 Like something to get the better view? Is it actually, it actually can give you plus 10 to perception? So go ahead and roll again as you go in and look through the periscope. That's gonna be a 26. Okay. Hey, cullder, you look through the periscope
Starting point is 01:14:04 instead of the viewing window. You see, there's probably like eight or 10 houses here and they mostly look empty. There's no lights on or anything like that. But as you scan the area, you see a little trio of puffin folk, the short about halfling sized puffin people. They've got orange, yellow and black beaks, Puffin folk, the short about halfling-sized puffin people. They've got orange, yellow, and black beaks, white and black fur.
Starting point is 01:14:30 And you see that they're wearing like little coats and hats kind of bundled up. And you see they're kind of looking nervously out at your vessel. And as they see the periscope looking around, they tuck themselves back into the house. I guess I'd look around for like a flag of piece, a white sheet. Yeah, you guys have a white flag, I would assume,
Starting point is 01:14:53 and you're venture to skewer in case you need a surrender. I'm gonna also write surrender on the white flag. We don't have to surrender, right? It was just me, it's like, we come in peace. High cross out surrender and say, and just do a smiley face. Perfect. You guys fly a white flag and you see the puff and folk merge from the house, but keeping their distance and one in the front yells out, hello, who goes there? Good afternoon, it is I, Collibio Petrochor,
Starting point is 01:15:28 and we come with nothing, but the best of intentions, and I'm gonna use my emissary of peace. Go ahead and give me a persuasion check. 23. Okay, you see the puff and folk look a little relieved, still a little reluctant, but... We merely seek safe passage on our way to Ice Knife.
Starting point is 01:15:52 They nod and go, well that's not too far from here. Come, come, sorry for our bad manners. Welcome to Flurry Harbor. Oh. Oh, thank you. Right, I'm gonna hop on out. Oh my gosh, it's so cold! How is it that's possible? I gotta go to bed. I gotta go to bed. It hurts my bones.
Starting point is 01:16:11 I don't know. Oh wow. Is anyone else see the hybrid egg? What's going on? You see, it kinda goes around. It just starts putting blankets on everybody. Okay, everybody stay warm. Oh, we did was open the door.
Starting point is 01:16:22 That was just a gust. You know, Calder, that going outside now, like traveling in the night without a fire is death. Mm-hmm. Let's find our Earth. OK. And we can warm up. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 01:16:37 Come along. Come into my home. We'll share some tea to warm your warm spirits. Yeah, I can't blink anymore. I can't blink. Call their carries soul. I look around for something we could bring us like an offering, right? Because I mean guests coming empty-handed,
Starting point is 01:16:53 I know that there are some cultures that that's fine, but I feel bad about this. Is there any other knit stuff that we might want? Not that we want to give it away. So I, with a heavy heart unlock. I think knit bra, that's a really good call. that we want to give it away. We're the heavy heart unlock. I think knit bra. That's a really good call.
Starting point is 01:17:09 You're so selfless. And I walk in holding out the hip. Oh, here, put this jacket on Kelly. Yeah, you guys put your coats on. Can I make sure that like she's helping you don armor it goes over and zips everybody up. Watch your chin, watch your chin. Oh Sorry, sorry, I can't feel anything used to do it. They get with plates not with coats
Starting point is 01:17:31 You guys get all done up in your heavy winter coats and your blue Foster tabards and you do see that foster just waddles long He's fine in the cold. What about gunk? You see gunk freezes. What? Is he okay? You see gunk just looks completely frozen. Should we leave him on the egg? He needs to be fed.
Starting point is 01:17:54 He needs to be fed. We have to be fed. He might need to be fed if he's frozen. Okay. Yeah. Gently frozen. Dr. Evil style. So have you made me a little bindle to carry him with?
Starting point is 01:18:05 Yeah, here we go. It's it actually just use like one of the cups from your bra. Okay, great great great Yeah, Saul with your sort of inherent connection in nature you sense that gunk is frozen and thus preserved You have hunted this problem. This is great. Yeah, that's what I want to do right now. It's just go to bed You do begin to freeze as you accidentally roll up one of your sleeves. We gotta go inside, guys. Come, come this way. You are brought into, it looks like it would be a giant's house,
Starting point is 01:18:38 but you see these three little puff and folk walk in. You see, there are plants, looks like they might have had to be like magically enchanted. A lot of them probably wouldn't normally survive in the winter, but you instantly get into this warm home. You see a table set up in the middle. You see lots of rugs and animal furs and things like that to keep everything warm in here.
Starting point is 01:19:00 And there's just like giant clay stove that sort of heats the whole house. You go inside and everything already feels warm. Cosey. And this puffin' folk puts on a kettle of tea and goes, nice to meet you. I'm Rosco and this is Birdie. I'm Birdie!
Starting point is 01:19:19 And Clyde. Hey. Roscoe Birdie and Clyde, aren't you a collection? Aren't you a miniaturie? Yes, of course. So we don't get many visitors to Flurry Harbor. What brings you to the frigid north? We're on our way to my hometown.
Starting point is 01:19:41 Oh, the village of Iceknife. Oh, okay. It's not too far from here. Probably a day or two's right, if you had a sledge or something like that. Oh, do we, can we just prop the egg up and slide it? Oh yeah, that's a good question. I don't think you could carry a submarine through the Tundra.
Starting point is 01:20:05 I think our plan was to take a river up there. You guys do have to hike at some point. Okay. So essentially, the way that the frigid north is laid out is frost wind is in like the southeast of it. And the ice knife is kind of like right square in the middle. You guys through this river were able to take like a western route and go deeper into the continent to get towards the middle and basically cut like a hundred miles off of your trip.
Starting point is 01:20:33 You know, we have some animals if you have a spare sled here in Blurry Harbor. Well, we're currently a little bit low on supplies. We had some friends of ours, the other people who live in this village have gone out on a little hunting expedition and have taken most of our equipment. They were supposed to have gotten back tonight and they haven't gotten back yet, which is concerning.
Starting point is 01:21:07 And it's just the three of us. And there's a group of polar orcs nearby named the Rosenvist, and they are quite fearsome. They're actually kind of between you and the Iceknife. They're out in the tundra there, but the mountains to the west, that's where all friends have gone. And your friends are your friends, giants? There are giants, giants, and puff and focus.
Starting point is 01:21:38 What are they hunting? Yeah. Hunting animals, trying to get food. Yeah, us puff and folk are able to just subsist on fish, obviously. It goes, oh, by the way, is anyone hungry? I hide gunk. Colder thinks about the whale.
Starting point is 01:21:54 It says, I could have some fish, yeah. Okay, yeah, it goes out. You see, they pull some nets in, birdie, clay, and roscocoe just start popping the fish cold, but cook them up for you guys and serve them to you with your tea. Huh. Okay, well, do you want us to go look for them? Your friends?
Starting point is 01:22:15 Yes, I suppose, if you wouldn't mind. Yeah, I mean, perhaps if we could help you, maybe you could help us make a sled. I've never made a sled, and I'm good for the labor, but maybe you guys are no better at how to make it. I would think our friends might have one out there. If you could find their sled, you might be able to find them as well.
Starting point is 01:22:38 Okay. I don't know what, I mean, look, they're giants of the frigid north, right? So they can survive out here. It's not a death wish. I wouldn't recommend you going out. I mean, if you think you can all survive out at night, obviously, would like to find out what happened to our friends.
Starting point is 01:22:56 But if you need to go out in the morning, that's fine too. Thank mornings to move. Actually, I'm so sorry. The fire is like really bright. I'm just still adjusting to it. I'm gonna put on my glasses for a second here. Okay. Just gonna do a quick scan.
Starting point is 01:23:09 Make sure that they are not mothership related. Great. Give me an insight, check, Saul. That's gonna be a 23. Saul, usually when you look at people with these, they either, you know, sometimes parts of them can register as organic, parts of them are inorganic if Alexandria isn't fully taking them over.
Starting point is 01:23:27 Red is usually inorganic, and there's like a green blue color that is organic. From these guys, you're getting like a brownish purple color. So it seems like a mixture. See, it does not seem completely normal. Like when you look, you've got your sunglasses on, you look over at Callie and Calder and Kenna, and they are green.
Starting point is 01:23:51 Okay. So I'm influenced by something. What was that? I said there's some influence that in terms of your decor. I'm like really getting sort of like a ski lodge vibe. Kind of a modge on the floor. Oh yeah. We went out to a ski lodge one time.
Starting point is 01:24:09 Must puff and folk are big because we don't have to use the ski lift so we're able to kind of quickly flutter to the top. I bet you don't even need to wear skis. You just slide down on your feet. That's true, just slip slide down on the feet there. That seems fine. Well, I love what you've done with the place
Starting point is 01:24:22 and so I feel that ski launch sort of, I'm taking notes. I'm a bit of a budding interior designer. That's excellent. You should see her tiny hats. Oh, I would love to. Yeah, absolutely. Oh, right.
Starting point is 01:24:38 You know, you don't have to waste your spells now if you would like to. But yes, you're welcome to, we do have an unoccupied house that you're more than welcome to stay in. You can stay here if you'd like. Or if you're willing to brave the frigid North night, you can head off into the mountains, it's sort of...
Starting point is 01:24:59 Yeah, we've come a long way, I think, resting in a nearby house if one's unoccupied. That's lovely. That's nice. We don't want to interrupt your evening. Yeah. Of course, of course. You see Roscoe hops down from his chair, sort of flutters down, and walks you guys to a house on the other end of the village.
Starting point is 01:25:21 Like I said, there's only like 10 or 12 houses here. Takes you up, opens the door, and you see house with a similar layout. He goes over, he gets the fire going. There's basically like a living area with like a bunch of chairs and a table. And then you see that there's a big bed in a bedroom and a couple of like smaller pots,
Starting point is 01:25:40 like maybe some other people stay here, or this is like some kind of guest house. And you see there's also like a dresser with a mirror on it and Roscoe goes, take as much time as you need. What's ours is yours and we'd be more than happy to. I'm sure our allies would be happy to loan a sledge to you if you were able to help them out of whatever jam they've gotten themselves into.
Starting point is 01:26:04 I'm just gonna do a quick insight check on our whole interaction about these lost allies. Great, yeah, give me this, I check. That is a three. Okay, you're not really getting a read on it, you're just like, yeah, it makes sense that the Senate hunting party out, they haven't come back. I am going to, when they leave,
Starting point is 01:26:23 I'm gonna put my glasses on and see since Saul is a clone, does he have a different aura than myself or Colter? He does not have a different aura. I wasn't sure if they were clones or something. Yeah, why are you looking at me like that? Just doing a test. Okay, you see yeah Saul is registering the same blue, and you guys see these guys head out. Okay, so I don't know what's going on.
Starting point is 01:26:51 I don't know if this is some sort of evolution of Alexandra magic or if they're sleeper agents or something like that, but I was picking up something. Yeah, do you want me to like pass about trace and go just try to see if I find anything weird in like the trash cans or anything? Might not be a bad idea. Okay. We could play that, we could spin that if we get caught. Okay, so I'm just gonna nip out just by myself.
Starting point is 01:27:19 Okay. I'm gonna give you a jacket. Can I bundle you up just a little bit? It's very cold. Yeah, yeah. She's bundled, I've yeah. It's not me though. She's bundled, I've got it, I've got it. I'm gonna have this choir here, I bundle everybody. I just worry, it's all.
Starting point is 01:27:31 And I'm just gonna, I just want to see if there's anything weird I can scare up. Kelly, wait, your hat, let me tie it. And as I tie it down, I cast invisibility on Kelly. Oh, nice. Okay. So, Kelly, I'll say. If that's the case, I might see if there's a way to sneak in or at least like listen at
Starting point is 01:27:52 the window. Great. Yeah, you can do some deeper digging now. Yeah. Okay. Maybe you do a little bit of detect thoughts. Great. On these puffing folk.
Starting point is 01:28:02 Cali, go ahead and we won't make you make a stealth check. You're out. It's night now. It's windy. Go ahead and give me a perception check and then give me an insight check. On that at both. That is a 16 to perception.
Starting point is 01:28:23 Eight to insight. Okay. You sneak to the outside of Roscoe's house. You hear them talking sort of in hushed tones, concerned, a little bit concerned about you guys. Like, was it the right idea to let them stay here? I don't know, it's not safe, and Clyde goes, it's not safe without the big guys around. I don't know that we should be having people stay here. I don't know. It's not safe and Clyde goes. It's not safe without the big guys around. I don't know that we should be having people stay here. I'm booty!
Starting point is 01:28:52 Yeah, I agree with Birdie. It's all Zwispring to call her, I don't trust Birdie. I thought he's alright. And Roscoe and the other Puffin folk are talking about you guys and whether or not it's safe that they're having people here they're worried because the giants are gone and they're also worried about these polar orcs that are nearby these orcs of the frozen fist And then as I detect thoughts am I getting anything electronic in there? It very much reflects the things that they're saying in a way that's maybe a little bit strange,
Starting point is 01:29:32 where you're kind of like, you're not thinking of anything else. You're just thinking of, your friends are gone and you're worried about these new people. Nothing unique is really popping up in your head. You didn't have like a weird stray thought. Everything that they're thinking is coming out of their mouths. Are they like clay constructs made out of dirt? You're not gonna be able to get your unique is really popping up in your head. You didn't have like a weird stray thought. Everything that they're thinking is coming out of their mouths.
Starting point is 01:29:48 Are they like clay constructs made out of awakened animals? They seem like they're puffin' folk. Puffin' folk, okay, okay. I mean, I'll dig through the trash real quick. Okay, give me an investigation check. Okay, well, that's not my strength, so 11. Okay.
Starting point is 01:30:06 You look around weirdly clean. Weirdly, everything around here is undisturbed. Like, clean, like no refuse. Correct. Oh, this is so weird. Okay, I'll go back and I'll report this all. Okay. While she was gone, we tore up the room searching for bugs
Starting point is 01:30:26 to make sure that there's nothing planted here. Go ahead and give me investigation checks. I'll give Calder the help action. You got this, Holmes? I take out my magnifying glass. That is a 18. Calder, is there anywhere specifically that you're looking? I'll say with an 18, that'll get you
Starting point is 01:30:44 if you really focus up on like an area, you might find something. So you've got this main room with this stove here that's lit up, heating the whole area. You've got this bedroom that has this like dresser and this mirror and then you have the sort of main room that's like the kitchen slash living area with like a table.
Starting point is 01:31:02 I guess the dresser, the mirror. Okay, I want to make sure there wasn't anything electronic that's buying on us. Calder, you go over to the mirror. You see that it is not completely flush with the wall that it is out a little bit. And as you pull it off, you see that there is a little hole that is filled with some kind of arcane smoke.
Starting point is 01:31:33 This doesn't look good. Calle, do you know what the spell is? Caller? Go ahead and give me Archon's checks. That's not good for, that's only a nine for me. Okay. That is a 16 for me. I mean, is it poisonous?
Starting point is 01:31:49 With a 16, you can tell it's not poisonous. This does not look like any kind of weapon. It looks like it is some type of, not a full teleportation spell, but maybe like some connection for somebody to be able to listen or see that this would essentially have another whole that somebody as if they were in the next room over would be able to listen into. You said that the thoughts were like all uniform almost like they were. They're just very, you know, a lot of people, if they're saying, I love this soup,
Starting point is 01:32:25 that what they're really thinking is like, God, I want to fuck you. Yes! Right? And so there's like, there is the external and the internal world, and they're not usually so synchronized, like they are with them.
Starting point is 01:32:38 Almost like they're programmed. Yes, that's why I was almost like, are they constructs? Can I check to see if the mirror is a two-way mirror? Sure, yeah, the mirror looks regular. Okay. It's this strange arcane hole that looks like it's doing the work. But like, if the mirror was placed over it,
Starting point is 01:32:53 it's not like you could see through the mirror on the other side. It's like purely an audio wire tap. It's kind of more like an audio wire tap. Are they? I really want to sneak up on them in a way that, are they inert when we aren't there? Should we, like, try and plant some false information? Now, we're like in the bathroom, the water's running.
Starting point is 01:33:13 Okay, so you guys are awake at the whole, yeah. I would have assumed that. Yeah, you can put the kind of mirror back up to the whole covering it completely, and then you're in a different room. Do we feel safe to sleep here tonight? Maybe we should take shifts. We could take shifts if you don't in a different room. Do we feel safe to sleep here tonight? Maybe we should take shifts. We could take shifts if you don't have a shift. Yeah, let's not all sleep at the same time.
Starting point is 01:33:30 Yeah. These little birds are scary. What do you know about polar orcs? Call their go ahead and give me a history check. I'm not wondering if they bartered some sort of deal with Alexanderite. That's a 19. Okay.
Starting point is 01:33:44 There are a bunch of settlements of polar orcs that prefer the cold that are out here. And you don't know anything specifically about the frozen fist, but you guys like, you know, there are polar orc villages and stuff not far from where you guys were in the ice knife and you guys didn't really have any problems. Usually out here, the weather is bad enough
Starting point is 01:34:11 that people aren't going out trying to pick fights. Like, generally, if you choose to live out in the tundra, you're kind of cool with the other people that are out there. You're battling the elements. Yeah, do you know of any vulnerabilities in what's going on with them, that Alex Sandrite would pray upon? You don't. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 01:34:32 All right. Fuck. All right, let's start taking shifts and get a good night's sleep so we can head out in the morning. Okay, sweet. Should we try and plug the hole? Yeah, let's do it. Okay, you guys take some time.
Starting point is 01:34:43 Oh, you know what we should do? It's like, let's all it. Great, you guys take some time. Oh, you know what we should do is like, let's all hang up our coats on it, so that it doesn't seem like we discovered it, but we're like blocking the sounds. Just very loud, they say, wow, there's no place to hang our coats. I guess we'll have to use this mirror. Yeah, I need to hang up my coat too.
Starting point is 01:35:01 Guess take some time. You cover this arcane listening hole. I'll do, I'm gonna do a detect magic around the hot two before. You know what, everybody give me investigation checks as Cali casts detect magic. I'm also doing my divine sense, I can't believe that. I'm just gonna do that.
Starting point is 01:35:18 Oh. 17, okay. 11. 11. The little hole is some kind of like I was saying, teleportation magic where it's not a full teleport, but it's opening a gate basically between two places. You also sense the residue called her
Starting point is 01:35:37 of like a mending spell that was cast in the past like a couple days. Oh. It seems like beyond mending, like this house was maybe broken down at some point and fixed up. Oh, is this, are we staying in a flip? Is this a really cheap Airbnb?
Starting point is 01:35:55 Oh, I thought I had a bad vibe. Wow, now that I have a sniff of that, can I just like look around for any signs of struggle, any battles like you're near the village? Are you gonna go outside or where are you going? Yeah, maybe I'll go outside and see if there's even just like Tracks in the snow just outside of where they might have like swept it clean. Okay. Are you still thing or you're just walking out? I'll stealth. Okay. Go ahead and give me a stealth check. I'll give you a ball to guess you had out. Okay 18 for stealth call there you sneak out there is a lot of snowfall here like you see flakes of snow falling out
Starting point is 01:36:33 You see that the snow is sort of lit up by the moon here You sense I'll say like Callie reaches like a larger area with this detect magic bigger than that house You see that there was some mending like outside. Like basically as far as the range of detect magic goes, there was some magic to cover something up here. You also, as you go out, give me a new investigator perception check. That's 26.
Starting point is 01:37:01 Okay. You don't see any footsteps from this supposed hunting party going out into the mountains, but you do see the footprints of polar orcs. There's not enough of them to surround the village, but you see about four of these blue orcs wearing thick hide armor lying in weight, hiding amongst the evergreen trees here and looking out towards the fire in your guys' room and towards the one in the puffin' folks' room, but they do not see you with your stealth check,
Starting point is 01:37:42 but you see them. Okay. Um, Calder does a, like a low hunting whistle and says quietly, what are you hunting friend? The orcs
Starting point is 01:38:00 jump, get really spooked. Oh, oh my god. How are you? How are you? You want to them? I'm scared. Are you one of them? I'm a visitor I'm passing through give me a persuasion check. Oh, I didn't use the bardic the Cali gave me before did I Thank you Cali. That's an eight
Starting point is 01:38:16 22 They Still look suspicious because you're somebody that snuck up onto them as they're trying to sneak up on somebody else So they're scared they have have their hands on their weapon. But you notice that they look like young and inexperienced. One dude has a sword that he should be holding in two hands, that he only has in one hand that, uh, and he's got a shield with it. You would normally not do that with this like big, great sword.
Starting point is 01:38:41 He looks a little scrawny for it. This looks like a really slap-team. But you see that one guy is kind of puffing his chest out and acting like the leader and goes, okay, yeah, you look different than the creatures that were there. I don't mean you any arm. These creatures... look they're weirding me out. They're weirding my friends out. They're very off-putting. Yeah, the strange doors that came out of the river. The... what? The doors that came from the sea.
Starting point is 01:39:17 The puffing people. The who? You gotta come back to my house and tell me every call there as you are talking with them You guys Kali and Saul suddenly hear a little knock at your door Sorry, we're all in decent Yeah, I thought I hung hung up the do not disturb Oh, so sorry, I just thought I'd come by and we might have a little chat.
Starting point is 01:39:49 I think one of your friends has wandered off and I'm worried about him. Oh, well, he hasn't been home in a while, so I think he's just like re-equaining himself with the icy world. Yeah. Oh. Oh, I'm in the door.
Starting point is 01:40:02 Okay, you open the door. Just a crack. Roscoe sticks his head in. I'm afraid that he's currently talking to some of the frozen fist out there, and I believe they're trying to surround the village. So I think your friend is in great danger. We've actually had a lot of success talking to people rather than fighting them. So maybe he's just trying a new diplomatic strategy. Is he? He's seen if he puts his wing on the door and you feel a surprising amount of strength against it.
Starting point is 01:40:41 A new strategy you say. No, no. I think I've seen this one before. I know all of your moves. He begins rapidly growing and his feathers morph and pull back to reveal the face of Alexanderite. And that's where we'll end our session. Dora opened it. No.
Starting point is 01:41:08 Oh, geez. I mean, I felt like we weren't going to get anything interesting if I didn't open a door. Yeah, you got it. You got it. You got to open it. You got to crank it the door anyway. You got to open it the crack. Yeah, you know that puff and secret.
Starting point is 01:41:20 At least strong. You know, he can get a door open. Come on now. You can fly down the chimney if he wanted to. Yeah, that's true, that's absolutely true. All right, thank you all so much for listening. We'll be back next week with a book club. We haven't done that.
Starting point is 01:41:33 Yeah, it's a beyond the hook. I'd be on a book club. You know what, maybe, we'll think about it. I'll think of maybe, it's not a no. All right, does anybody have anything they'd like to plug? Ooh, I'll kick it off. We've got next week, we've got some big live shows Washington and New Hampshire.
Starting point is 01:41:47 We'll be doing Dungeon Court live on January 18th and Boston will be doing actual play on January 19th. Get those tickets at madpod.com slash alive.
