0:15

0:21
claudia loroth linda borgen richard august philip glass and of course neil robinson
0:29
why don’t you all introduce yourself and your characters uh it is entirely possible that claudia
0:36
will be joining us a bit late so she’ll get to introduce yourself then
0:42
hi i’m neil robinson and i’m playing Nisk and he is an Orlanth Adventurous adventurer he um is
0:50
trying hard to that’s all right where it um makes sense and make wealth during these times of troubles as we
0:56
deal with occupied cracks kind of story occupied
1:02
liberated liberated [Laughter]1:10
i’m richard august i’m playing Garan Grimseeing a Humakti bodyguard uh who is an
1:17
increasingly big fan of Argrath
1:22
i’m Phillip Glass i play Kulbrast One-Arm who is a decreasing fan of Argrath
1:30
because he starts to doubt his strategic prowess a bit
1:35
um and now of course cooped up in his city with nothing to do which is not something pirates like not
1:44
uh i’m linda i’m playing who is a well was a storm bull warrior
1:51
but through a offline event has now awakened their fetch and become
1:58
a shaman very new shaman but it’s not a sham yes
2:06
excellent excellent okay well linda why don’t you just go right in and give us a recap of
2:12
what’s gone in in the previous sessions okay uh last time i think most of us
2:18
were trying to play house in the beginning trying to make uh
2:23
make our big grand house into some kind of functional uh white bowl shrine we weren’t really
2:31
able to do that because our graph was a bit what shall we say impatient and wanted
2:38
to go uh destroy one of the reaching moon temples the biggest one
2:43
in dragon pass so he gathered all his forces and we went we went and of course someone hadn’t
2:50
been paying attention to the moon cycle so we encountered the lunar school of
2:55
magic on full moon i think it was about 40 kilometers or something away from our
3:00
actual target that went i’ll show you say it very bad
3:07
um i believe the english term is parish shaped piercing
3:14
yeah uh well uh the first thing we really saw was all
3:20
this crimson glow surrounding some mighty nasty
3:26
disgusting lunars and quim the three-bodied three-headed giant that
3:33
sometimes well it’s we hate it’s a curse of cracks we hate it and he started running towards us
3:40
tearing bits of flesh from his body throwing it into the poor poor llamarider hyaluromoridis was
3:46
of course the quickest to be there because they run the fastest nor the bravest
3:52
and they were just decimated and melted by quim’s body parts and the crater makers
3:58
were there throwing meteors on us and we were crowded by the loons driving
4:05
people crazy with lots of madness magic so i think we lost about half of our people at least before
4:13
you had to retreat um problem was really that our graph as you might
4:18
remember uh we were ambushed when trying to um stay keep watched over his body while
4:26
he was meditating and he used some of his powers to destroy one of the assassins and due to
4:33
this the dragon which apparently he has some kind of relationship with could not
4:40
wait awaken and face this chaos so
4:45
we run away with tails between our legs to new path to new pavets again and then
4:52
the dragon did rise kilometers of dragon
4:57
200 miles away and it rose and destroyed everything that was on it the entire
5:05
mountain range now flew towards the red moon and i’m in awe
5:12
and that’s pretty much where we stopped well i want to pick this up then um
5:19
let’s move forward a a a tiny bit here because
5:24
you know in the wake of actually i’m gonna i’m gonna move a little bit
5:30
forward but first i want us to do a a recap of a flashback
5:36
so forgive my uh forgive my disorganization here
5:41
uh prior to the battle nisk and um
5:49
or sorry prior to the dragon rise after the battle nisk and Enkala went into the vultures
5:56
country with a dakini is it a dukini or tequili
6:04
dakakil is the elderly high
6:12
llama writer who hangs around has been hanging around um uh the your
6:20
guys i don’t know what you want to call it your house your villa your shrine your your drone with the white bull
6:28
the white house the white bull he hangs out there he’s rude to everybody uh and does no work and ignores you when
6:36
you try to make him do anything but he um uh incala
6:43
is dutiful towards him and uh dakakil
6:49
uh left one day uh just got onto his high lama and rode
6:56
away and uh inkala very very quickly went after him on her llama and then nisk came along on
7:03
his bison and they went they they left new pavis and i think it was
7:11
it was more than a week that you all were gone you guys basically came back shortly
7:17
before it was time for the uh shortly before the dragon rise occurred
7:23
does that sound about right linda that way we don’t have these people all sitting on their hands for uh
7:28
yeah for for two weeks yeah that works perfectly yeah absolutely
7:36
so where we’re gonna start things is is that the dragon rise has happened and
7:43
the dragon is still in the sky and i i i want you all to stretch your brain
7:50
and try to imagine what an um a dragon several kilometers
7:57
long uh flying a few hundred kilometers away
8:03
must look like because remember there’s no curvature to glorantha so there’s the the
8:10
you see that your horizon what dictates the horizon is actually
8:16
uh diffusion of air it’s not the curvature of the earth and something
8:22
eight kilometers oh something eight kilometers long is going to be able to be seen for eight
8:31
you know hundreds hundreds of kilometers and it’s it just slowly is
8:38
flying around dragon pass and as a result
8:46
right now the shrine to the white bowl is very popular maybe it’s people
8:52
wanting to call upon the white bull um and offer uh the white bull magic
8:57
so that he can protect uh new pavis from uh this this huge dragon or maybe
9:05
they want to take advantage of all the beer that you recently acquired from
9:11
uh the garhound clan so that they can just drink themselves into a stupor but it doesn’t really
9:17
matter there’s they’ve got money some of them do some of them
9:25
i don’t know what’s your what is your policy on on on payment well i think that the
9:32
donation to the white bowl would be a good thing wouldn’t it well i i i’m curious
9:40
your your take on this when there’s a when a one-eyed praxions points to his
9:46
that and says that’s his donation to the white bull
9:54
there were many hundreds of casualties at the battle of henders ford maybe even
10:00
thousands of casualties uh i’m not going to turn them right away but also i don’t want them just
10:07
you know drinking all of the stuff and just and and i know i know they will so there’s a reason why we have
10:13
bodyguards and we have guys there to help us what what was that bridge can we not
10:18
gesture out to the dragon and say well that’s his i think i think maybe you’re even right now so
10:24
maybe a new donation might be a good idea [Laughter]10:31
so or we should start educating them on the concept of paying
10:38
for drinks the appraxians are really good at that
10:47
no they’re not no no the practice ants are pretty terrible about that you know it
10:53
it even gets worse when there’s praxions that recognize you all because of course
11:01
you know then they absolutely assumed that well you’re there for you know you and
11:07
uh you and he they you guys fought at the same battle on the same side uh you know you know but they could
11:15
always show that if they’re a great hunter they could bring back something to help the white people and survive so that we
11:22
can get beer well
11:27
what how is your characters reacting to this uh dragon flying around
11:33
in the sky let’s start with you philip well if i remember correctly the the
11:40
first um sort of reaction last time and was as of you know oh dear i mean
11:48
the guys is really dangerous and now he has this
11:53
ridiculous huge dragon sort of at his call um you know it will
12:00
be very dangerous times ahead for people who sort of go with him
12:06
and but on the other hand it might uh you know hide the chances that the
12:13
disaster just wasted this last time won’t be occurred so it’s of the ambivalence
12:22
how about you Garan how are you feeling about things well i had
12:28
not my loyalty to him never wavered but i doubted our grass military acumen
12:35
after we had marched out unprepared into the teeth of a lunar magical inferno
12:44
and then to see him achieve this feat i am my guilt has made me my
12:51
loyalty go into overdrive i am fanatically committed i will not even hear a word against it
12:58
in color oh well uh i did have a little bit of a doubt last
13:04
time but nisk did orate me into he oriented me back
13:10
into my loyalty but i have to say being one of the people who actually heard that
13:15
dragon speak to speak to our graph i have to say i don’t
13:20
think he’s got any kind of control over that thing it’s got its own logic it’s not there’s
13:26
nothing human about that brain it’s really cool it’s
13:33
it’s fantastic but i don’t think really our great has control but as long as it kills chaos i’m happy
13:44
well i want to introduce our our fifth player welcome claudia and and and i believe
13:52
claudia has been following the stage directions from our producers i
13:57
i noticed that the the cow patterns
14:04
very frustrated so um what we’re talking about the
14:12
dragon rise has occurred and we’re just getting the characters feedbacks and reactions on
14:18
that uh how is gina feeling about uh the dragon rice
14:25
that dragon is still in the air yes i it’s interesting it’s um dark and
14:33
i try to connect with actually the ghosts on the ground and find out what they think
14:42
about well the um i mean most of the spirits
14:48
and you have second sight and in cala you always have second sight
14:54
i you know that the spirits the spirits are are are are terribly uh
15:02
disturbed by a dragon waking up they are spirits that are normally quiet
15:09
are active spirits that are normally placid um are aggressive uh
15:17
it’s it’s you know it’s it’s something that is it’s not that
15:24
its presence causes them pain or anything but the fact that it’s awake
15:29
is is like a jolt through the spirit world
15:35
so do they like it or do they not like it well most of the dead that you deal with
15:43
they’re kind of past liking stuff in not liking stuff i mean
15:49
you know the most of the dead that you interact with uh claudia or or gina
15:56
don’t really have strong opinions of what they like or don’t like in the
16:03
uh in the world and those ghosts that do have strong opinions
16:09
are problems okay so i then try to calm down and
16:16
the ghosts which have strong opinions okay and the same thing goes for you uh gina
16:22
as well is that that i and i think i told you this earlier today is is the spirit
16:27
world is is very uh agitated okay
16:35
sorry to uh inkhala i told uh i said this was that right um
16:43
and caller yeah if i recall that this that that many of the spirits were very
16:49
agitated i believe that’s what um your mentor told you
16:54
[Music] yep very agitated and i can see them all the time now so i
17:01
can kind of can i interact with them as well all the time
17:06
in spirit speech and i want to tell you you saw what your shamanic ability show spirit is like
17:12
yeah i want to give you a good idea of what follows you around all the time all the
17:19
damn time and you can decide whether this is something that you ever
17:25
let other people become aware of or not so you see things like this everywhere
17:31
you go uh is this showing up yeah yeah we’re seeing it so uh
17:39
shadowy uh shapes weird um uh spirit forms
17:46
and this is this is what you see and i’ll turn it off now but when you just look around um
17:52
almost anywhere you go there’s there’s almost always several of the shadowy shapes of
18:00
of those spirits but there’s often uh a larger spirit again i’ll show you
18:06
the the picture of the larger spirit because it’s just neat to show off you see this uh you see this guy
18:14
uh bigger than all the other spirits kind of looming above them [Music]18:22
you see that spirit all the time it doesn’t want to interact with you when you try to get near it it um
18:29
it tends to go away and then comes back it just watches you
18:34
okay do i know anything about it or it’s just something that you can
18:41
roll um against your spirit lord no that’s not the big one
18:47
that’s not my best
19:00
yeah one percent below my skill yeah um
19:07
what you know of this is it’s um a a it
19:13
seems to be some kind of a free-willed spirit so a spirit that most of the like the
19:20
the the shadowy shapes those spirits don’t have any will anymore they just kind of do they kind
19:26
of float around and and and they listen to gina and her songs and her dances
19:33
uh but they uh and though you know if um if they’re forced to manifest in
19:40
the world in the mortal world they can be very dangerous but they’re basically just things that are there that that kind of
19:47
go through the motions of what spirits do self-filled spirits are
19:54
they have their own agendas and their own will and they can be very dangerous
20:00
and you seem to have attracted a a a self-willed spirit of some sort
20:06
possibly as a result of your um the big ritual you performed in vultures country
20:14
okay i’ll be aware of him at least so yes and and it’s kind of creepy
20:22
you know you wake up in the morning and and i don’t know give yourself and give this
20:28
guy a name yeah it’s unnerving let me show you the
20:33
picture of this guy gina you can often you can sometimes see the spirit as well
20:40
it won’t talk to you [Music] but you might want to give it a nickname
20:46
or something it’ll make it easier for me to call than um uh free-willed spirit
20:53
looks like it looks like a flashlight [Music] you want to call it flashlight spirit
21:00
flashlights bird yes it’s glooming on the top okay i’ll yeah okay the flashlight okay but
21:08
do we even know what a flashlight is oh so that’s kind of a stupid nickname isn’t it it’s lantern it looks like like a almost
21:16
like a oh what’s it called uh bullseye lantern on top without the it’s it’s a lantern okay yes
21:23
lantern spirit works for me thank you for the idea gina happily
21:32
it does get kind of freaky and kapala lantern spirit often you wake up in the morning there’s lantern spirit just kind
21:39
of looking at you and lantern spirits probably i don’t know three meters tall
21:46
and then you cannot see the lantern because it’s so tall for a room wait hunch is over oh
21:54
by the way can anybody does anybody else have second sight
22:00
okay you three it’s just inkhala has gotten weirder and weirder
22:08
since she returned from vultures country you know sometimes um you see her
22:15
staring in a corner of a room um just kind of glaring at an empty corner and sometimes she
22:23
would even say stuff like if you’re not going to talk i’m not going to talk
22:31
so i’ve really noticed much of a difference not that much now she’s doing it without
22:38
asia
22:46
i just acquired brain damage on the trip that’s how you can just write that off as too much smoking
22:53
well one of the things unless anybody has any immediate things they want to talk or
22:58
or or do while the dragon is is still um flying around
23:04
in the sky but if not the the dragon stays in the sky for a
23:11
week or two and then uh one day it’s not in the sky
23:17
some people say it landed somewhere in dragon pass others say that it flew away
23:22
um for much of that time it blocked the red moon
23:27
so there was a dragon in front of the red moon uh eclipsing it which um
23:35
for at least the Orlanth storm worshipers probably was generally thought of as pretty cool but
23:42
after the dragon uh goes away
23:48
many of the praxians start thinking that now is the time um
23:55
to return back to their herds many of the praxian warriors
24:01
good idea food is always a good option
24:06
what was that they won’t drink all our beer then know about it but it’s bad for the army
24:12
uh and and and many of the proxies start leaving and some of the mercenaries and even
24:20
some of the wolf pirates uh you know there’s that
24:25
some of them tried to to uh you know say well and and and enter there at the
24:32
at the white bull shrine and say you know we we we are um our graph needs to do something
24:39
because if we’re not campaigning then there’s no plunder
24:47
yeah what are we getting right absolutely right i mean you know i’m i’m shocked
24:54
at how this is this is handled this whole oh campaign such a great marvel of
25:01
military um prescience and planning me
25:06
yeah you’d be surprised [Laughter] i would yeah that
25:16
that attack on the old gate that was carefully thought through yeah that was brilliant i mean it got us
25:24
into all of this so come on um but yes there’s a concern some of the
25:30
um you know some of the wolf pirates some of the mercenaries um some of the minor praxian chiefs
25:38
are all frustrated because uh you know you all have been now
25:46
in new pavis for you you took new papa since storm season
25:53
you’ve been there so uh sea season fire season now we’re
26:01
um into late earth season and there’s been no campaigning
26:06
no plundering and uh when there’s no campaigning and no
26:13
ponder there’s no treasure coming down um to uh to the warriors so they
26:21
they it’s not that they’re upset in in going oh we’ve been screwed but it’s okay well um time to go home
26:34
or time to do something about it well
26:39
you said you wanted to go to the battle you could definitely go check that out and see if there’s anything there yeah yeah that was that was an idea going
26:45
back to the battlefield maybe look what if we finding clues or yeah
26:50
ghosts or ghosts mad ghosts probably
26:58
well is that is that something that you um you all want to do the battlefield is a
27:04
big graveyard isn’t it well thousands of people died there
27:10
great let’s go there that’s fun yeah
27:16
well i would i’d like to find out a bit more to see if our if our gut has any if you know if he’s just kind of holed
27:22
up still it seems like it would be a good thing to go and check out um because i’m assuming he’s still doing
27:28
that he spends like most of his time meditating and doing things like that all right you guys could go to our grass
27:35
court you can always do that well i’ll do that first to see what’s happening i’d like to know is that anybody else
27:42
is anybody else going to come along to the court of our graph oh definitely yeah
27:50
yes please do we have can we dress up for that
27:55
if you want it’s a court of course i can’t i’m miss rulian i need at least two days
28:02
of dressing up okay
28:08
so i wanna i’m pulling up another map here [Music]28:15
and i will share a screen here [Music]28:24
and share screen huzzah okay do we have a nice picture of new
28:30
pavis what with what is misleadingly called lunar headquarters and lunar barracks
28:37
you guys see that yep yep that is now argrath’s headquarters
28:45
and that and the lyrics are where his uh personal followers
28:53
reside this is the the um there are several bodies of of
29:00
warriors who are sworn to him uh there’s the um i believe it’s called the
29:06
spear brother the twin spears the sword brothers
29:11
and the bullocks which are basically services bodyguard
29:18
and they reside in the former lunar barracks and then our graph has turned the
29:24
lunar headquarters into his palace and
29:31
within is um our grass court you guys are absurdly
29:39
loyal to our grass so i’m not gonna make you have to roll you know for most people
29:45
in new pavis or even in the army you can’t it’s it’s not easy to get a audience
29:52
with the king which is by the way what our graph is now is is generally called by the new paper
29:58
sites is the king of papas but um you guys can get a
30:04
uh um an audience with our graph so you guys are all kind of heading in
30:10
there yeah the
30:16
big parade sorry sorry we are parading in there oh yeah is there anything you guys are
30:22
doing to to to try to show off or intimidate or look cool yes i put my
30:28
horn on okay your horn and your dancing your your uh dancing
30:37
my long finger nail thingies and so on i i’m dressed up i mean with nice braids
30:43
and proper makeup and so on
30:48
i think i’ll use my um charismatic charm for this
30:53
it’ll only last couple of minutes so be one yo you could actually use your golden hooked arm the fake one
31:00
my golden hook don’t you have down a thing of course you’re a pirate
31:07
well i probably should have a golden hooked arm yeah
31:13
awakened raven on my shoulder and i will come um in my my fancy noble
31:20
stuff robes that i i got noble clothes that i wore with with my armor this is the stuff you
31:26
stole from the lunars no no no i’ve always had it i had it because i worked basically i was one who
31:32
i worked for our graph before right and so i mean these are clothes that he’s basically given me or what go around the place and i probably
31:39
know all the main bodyguards and people like that anyway so oh yeah and give you an idea by the way
31:46
this is his noble clothes is like what a
31:52
a a varangian prince would have had as their noble clothes
31:58
it’s like silk pants from one land um
32:05
a a cotton shirt from another land uh you know it’s it’s this mismatch of
32:12
international styles that’s the sort of thing that a rich wolf pirate would have because hey you
32:18
know those people are garnish yeah he does not belong to me those people in teschnos they have cool
32:26
pants i really want pants like that they’re soaked have you ever worn a silk pant wow
32:35
he doesn’t he doesn’t belong to me i don’t belong to anyone but
32:41
i i i just want you get an idea he does not look like like like some sardorite from the hills
32:47
he looks like a uh international traveler with his hawaiian shirt
32:55
but it’s one of those silk hawaiian shirts that’s so cool i mean it wasn’t one of the first ones
33:01
this is like flat one the next next game exactly
33:07
uh our grass anybody else doing anything impressive yes not really impressive but there has
33:14
been a slight change to my uh attire one might say so uh i’m walking around
33:22
now with i do have my stolen lunar uh uh van bursus and so on but
33:29
i’m bare chested now wearing butt small loin cloth made of leather and that’s it and tattoos and markings
33:38
and all that stuff but i used to wear clothes i don’t anymore i don’t think i’m very stylish gina you have to help
33:44
me ah i i borrow you my life a nice little gemstone covered sniffing box
33:51
made out of silver and gemstones so you can put asia in and you can have
33:57
a few you put it around your neck and it has a little bit of coal on the bottom and then it burns very slowly it’s easy
34:06
so you have always fumes in your nose it’s actually very stylish looking okay that’s that’s beautiful it is
34:15
i guess i might as well ask cole brown scarin anything you guys are doing to be able
34:20
to look dashing and impressive
34:25
i’m probably dressed similar to nisk uh being a wolf pirate myself i
34:32
probably have i don’t know maybe i prefer the very expensive calf leather pants from
34:40
wherever they make off leather pants lots of places they might make calf
34:46
leather pants yeah but you know the stylish ones or shall we say the expensive ones
34:53
and also a flowing shirt and a huge hat with big feathers and all sorts of
34:59
colors okay actually i i i definitely want to hear the hat i i
35:04
want to hear your big hat well it’s a hat you put on it’s got a
35:10
sort of uh um i think i had a picture of a similar hat somewhere um
35:16
i’m i’ll just be able to show you just a second um
35:22
so yeah if you look here oh no you can’t see
35:28
sorry the hat is not on uh it’s basically it’s a sort of a like a crescent on your
35:34
head like a sort of a mohawk in the wrong way made of bronze and then feathers sticking out
35:42
oh superb i see people’s hat yeah oh excellent
35:48
excellent he looks like a giant peacock guys oh great it’s awesome
35:55
i don’t know you guys well we often don’t know you so you know fair is fair
36:01
i guess excellent well our grass uh court
36:07
is from a israelian perspective absolutely barbarous
36:14
there is uh drinking eating naked dancing girls
36:22
murderous warriors hausa smoking um praxian cons
36:28
armed cons veteran war leaders uh priests of war gods wolf pirates and
36:35
favored killers basically they go to our grass palace to
36:40
drink and eat to excess and there’s always some sort of entertainment there to keep
36:47
them from um uh killing each other because many of these people have sworn oaths to kill
36:54
each other when they get the chance i mean these are praxions and um humachty and orlanti these are
37:03
these are you know followers of violent destructive gods so
37:11
the entertainment that is around there and israelia is certainly not a
37:16
a um a prurient land where people you know
37:23
are blush easily or whatnot but entertainment there almost always has
37:29
some some sort of greater purpose right gina yeah yeah definitely
37:34
please the there’s culture involved here the entertainment is
37:41
is drink food and sex which is basically there to keep
37:46
the various people that are are um uh hanging out in the palace from doing
37:53
stuff even dumber than any of those three right in circus it’s all it’s it’s bread and circuses
38:01
uh so you know hazia is smoked openly there’s dancers from teshnos
38:07
and or fun rit performing uh to strange weird music there’s there’s you know
38:15
there’s a musician there’s a group of musicians from fondret and then um a drunken storm bulb
38:24
pushes them aside so that he can recite crappy poetry
38:30
yeah your cults your cults very known for their high quality taste um
38:37
and there are groups you know over in one corner narmed is drinking himself into oblivion
38:44
with his companions and over in another corner uh yet zerkyo blue llama is smoking
38:51
hazia with a murderous look in his eyes this is i want to get you guys kind of
38:57
the feeling um of of of his his palace um you know
39:05
there’s there’s all of this stuff going on the smell of incense
39:12
the smell of of sweat uh the smell of
39:19
a very good wine that has been spilled all over the floor um and there’s servants there just
39:26
basically making sure that none of the people here uh go
39:31
without food because again they expect to be fed and if they if
39:38
the food runs out they’re likely to get cranky with one another and then finally on a
39:45
dias um at the far end of the palace uh is argrath who despite there being
39:53
uh dancers trying to get his eye uh and get his attention by turning things up to 11. the white bull just watches
40:01
everything impassively like he’s stoned that’s the cor what he probably is
40:08
because he probably is the point is is that this is a place where uh there
40:13
is there are a lot of folk here that are
40:19
drunk or otherwise under the influence that are are bored and are dangerous
40:27
dangerous people who are dealing with being bored by getting by getting up uh or watching
40:35
temple weird temple dances or whatnot or hoping a fight will break out and
40:42
you all are all also dangerous people and can recognize this vibe going on
40:49
it’s it’s like going into a a bar filled with drunken hells angels
40:54
so we are feeling homey yeah but not necessarily in a good way
41:03
what does the spirit surround our grass look like now oh
41:09
you realize that from now on i actually have to be writing down a whole list of spirit i have to start having random
41:16
spirit uh yeah random spirit tables
41:23
yeah i’m sorry no that’s okay it’s it’s it’s it’s your character here um
41:30
around our graph there are remember those all those shades there are many many
41:38
shades um there are also many many of these free-willed spirits
41:47
all of which are trying to get his attention um
41:53
how about making a dance of harmony if you want to do your own temple i mean
42:02
uh in israelio that would be considered very bad form for you to to to just start a dance
42:09
while other things are going on here but here that seems to be um do regular uh
42:15
it’s just how things happen yeah the thing is that i thought maybe
42:21
it would break some of the underlying tension i mean i have a harmony rune of 85 and i
42:30
have a death rune of over 90 so you’re gonna do it you want you want people to die i’m not sure yet
42:38
more like harm in your death yes saturday
42:47
um i want to get a kind of a clue with what your characters are doing it sounds
42:52
like claudia wants to do a dance but i i just want to remind you all that this is a court of killers
42:59
mad men and psych okay how about that with my horn of intimidation i could
43:04
actually end my my high deaths when i could actually make an intimidating dance don’t screw with us
43:12
okay how is that
43:19
i i think she’s asking you not me how would that be
43:24
i’m not gonna i’m no one can make you do anything but also means i can’t make other people do that
43:29
that’s her choice of what to do the problem though is that a lot of these fractions would
43:35
take that as a challenge that’s what worries me no no no you have
43:40
to show that you’re stronger that’s how you deal with this overseas
43:45
barbarians yeah survival of the fittest
43:53
but that’s exactly why they’re gonna challenge it yeah but think about it they think we
43:59
are easy prey i i don’t think we think we’re evie
44:04
no i don’t think so but so then while we’re here instead of intimidating them
44:11
because we’re here to talk to our graph we want to figure out we’re here we’re here to get a little more yeah but he’s stoned if nothing’s
44:17
happening there’s nothing happening but you can always get some rumors or some ideas i mean there’s going to be
44:22
someone who’s going to be stupid enough to ask him hey what are we doing how can we ever go in fighting now and i’m going to let that happen
44:27
and kind of learn from it let’s see from there there’s got to be some information
44:33
coming up you know that um kind of an intrigue thing to get more information out
44:39
um you’re gonna try to you’re gonna try to buddy uh rurik is not here
44:48
okay i mean it’s not a real party here
44:57
it’s well i mean it’s it’s it’s no it’s not a real party it’s
45:03
a bunch of of murderers and mad men getting drunk or smoking hausa and being distracted
45:12
by food and dancers but you were gonna say something rich i
45:17
was going to ask do we see anybody uh there are sitting so our breath is
45:26
sitting on um on the on the throne on the dice he he’s watching everything
45:35
doesn’t seem he’s watching everything he does not seem actually terribly interested
45:42
at all on what is going on uh but is just watching everything and
45:48
he’s got around him he’s got uh warriors from his
45:53
um the his sword uh sword brother bodyguards this is a
45:59
bunch of of whom octocultists that have uh sworn to be bodyguards to him
46:07
so as a fellow humacity i would like to approach one of these in
46:14
a kind of spirit of comradeship and see if
46:20
and find out what our graph intends if he intends anything
46:27
well they say that we will act we will do with the white bull um when the white bull uh
46:35
decides to act we will follow and now the sword brothers that is a noble and just end and one i
46:43
myself share how do i join your fellowship
46:48
as a kind of roving member uh well i mean it is possible i can
46:55
i can work out what the initiation process is to becoming uh one of the sword
47:00
brothers but your biggest problem with it is is can you ride yes
47:06
i can are you a good writer i have
47:13
yeah no 28 they’re a cavalry unit
47:20
i will get better
47:29
yeah um but yeah they’re they’re they’re their their whole
47:35
reaction is uh very much that that the white ball um
47:44
the white bull will tell us um uh where we shall march and we will
47:52
follow the white ball okay i’ll kind of let nisk know
47:57
i didn’t get anything there by about this time miss actually i think it was kind of
48:02
boring you know he sees someone who’s quite impatient and feels that you know i’m not sure going
48:08
to get much more information out of this he’s obviously not ready at a time to move it’ll take a while so i’d rather do
48:14
something else so having been a polite you know i haven’t what i consider enough time to
48:19
notice that i’m there i’ll then i then don’t have an urge to stay for a huge amount of time
48:24
i have a very angry con sitting over there that i really want to avoid so oh yes
48:33
i’m kind of trying to avoid that guy right now you’re khan right or narmade the best i mean my car your car is not
48:40
happy with you because you screwed him so what did he do
48:47
she didn’t back him
48:54
yeah that would be kind of okay so i’m avoiding that that sounds a bit
49:00
as if you would slowly be leaving and then going back to our plan
49:05
of inspecting the battlefield i think so i think so sounds good i’m ready to do something else well
49:11
actually at a certain point um uh before you leave
49:18
you get noticed ah enough you who i
49:25
yep and uh the white bull softly says
49:32
but whenever he speaks everybody shuts up and he says uh ah
49:39
it is my priests from the shrine of the white uh the shrine of the white
49:44
bull priests
49:51
probably probably even um not mockingly but there’s a little bit
49:58
of uh my priests my uh my priests uh of the white bull ah you come to
50:06
join my uh you’ve come to join uh uh uh my little soiree
50:14
please [Music] i am humbled my last of bow
50:22
and say um i thank you for your gracious hospitality my lord i’m my king right these kids and
50:29
um definitely will say that we have um we have been working to um to foster the
50:35
support for the white bull in fact and what if i should announce your shamany thing
50:40
and say like that um you might actually see it yeah and we have ventured into vulture
50:46
country i have with um and kala to um do a better job of trying to bring up see if the bull will come and grace
50:53
the shrine the right way
50:58
well he he wants to know how you plan how you propose to bring the white bull
51:05
into your into your shrine well uh i do
51:13
need a magical focus of power and that is where we’re kind of having a
51:18
bit of a problem right now because we don’t really have one but we’re working magical focuses of
51:25
power it’s always so difficult to find the right yes very difficult so that is where we’ve
51:32
kind of stopped but we’re we’re not giving up though we’re going to make the bestest greatest shrine ever for the
51:39
white bull in tavis so half of prax has already sucked beer in europe yeah yeah
51:52
well i mean uh this would be a chance if anybody wanted to ask anything
52:00
from from argrath this would be a good chance or it’s also an easy opportunity to
52:07
pay your respects and then leave so totally up to you guys
52:13
well his grace is so immensely powerful he might have a nugget
52:18
of power that we can use as a or a power or a place he would say that would
52:24
um some of the wise the wise companions about him would tell us a way of helping us a place we could find
52:30
something for the white boat yes yes but he said
52:38
um at this r graph
52:47
actually finds your entire approach very very funny and actually laughs at
52:54
this and he says you’re sitting we are on the outskirts of a gigantic
53:01
collection of of uh of
53:08
artifacts and and magic uh taken from the giants
53:15
from the god learners of the empire the worms friends and piled up into mounds
53:22
just on the other side of those walls and you asked me to give you an artifact
53:28
or an idea we just got one thank you hey say uh and at this our great
53:35
um uh uh our graph calls for a scribe
53:43
he calls for a scribe um and he asks uh how
53:50
big the uh the big rubble is and the
53:58
scribes are a little bit confused and not really understanding what the
54:04
question is and and wants to know about how big the big rubble
54:10
is and do you guys know what the kilometers by why is it five kilometers by five
54:15
kilometers or something yeah it’s it’s i think it’s five miles by five miles but it gives
54:21
give some sort of a amount and [Music] um our graph says well that’s plenty of
54:28
room plenty of room for for um for all my captains all my
54:36
uh all my chiefs draw me a picture of it
54:41
he says to to the poor lancor my scribe a bearded guy named georgeor um oh i have heard of him
54:52
bearded guy named george or with a with a extremely waxed beard who has the unpleasant job of being
55:00
um the poor lancor my priest uh stuck in in this court
55:07
but i have heard he’s very competent um well he he he’s trying to sketch out a
55:14
a a a drawing of the big rubble and our greth pulls out a sword
55:22
uh and george goes eek
55:29
they go there yeah but but actually i can help him a little bit
55:34
from the knowledge i got from the ghost remembers of golsa and robert
55:42
had the interrogation with in front of august 10th yes uh but at this point george
55:50
all georgia has started he’s drawn he’s drawn these walls and a river going through it and and
55:58
and and through some rooms to mark out areas and argreth just chops the map up with
56:04
his sword into sections and he grabs a section of the map
56:11
that that was drawn that he’s cut up and he says
56:18
there nisk this is yours
56:24
and he uh he tells the scribe he tells the scribe to put his seal on it
56:30
and and mark it up and says this is yours whatever
56:36
is um i give this i give this to you whatever is in here belongs to me
56:44
and i give it um i i give you rights to claim it
56:52
and he’s just given you uh part of the big rubble uh a section of
56:58
it now okay i think niska have decided this has been into the big rubble
57:04
once when he was like 12. and it was really scary it was on a dare
57:11
or something like that or he was able to there’s a few ways to get there so but that’s all he doesn’t know anything
57:16
about it except that it’s kind of big and scary because he left you know pavis when he was what 14
57:22

15. that sounds about right so um
    57:29
    what i will do i will cut out the exact dimensions of this but um he has
    57:37
    given you guys an allotment uh or an assignment to um
    57:45
    a section of the rubble that part of the map that he has cut out and um
    57:53
    and and he asks george orr to write down uh on there with his seal
    58:02
    uh a statement that this is all everything in here belongs to you
    58:07
    by virtue of um or by decree of our great white ball
    58:14
    and he says there this should solve your problem well at least for a few weeks i’d say
    58:22
    um and and and he says uh tell them tell my other captains
    58:29
    who have grown bored uh to come here and i would give them their allotment as well
    58:37
    and so i’ll be very gracious and think of that man obviously as
    58:42
    someone who gets bored really easily he was right i was bored
    58:47
    so our graph has now made you all the lord
    58:54
    of a section of map and and
    59:02
    i don’t want to be that i do though it’s a great opportunity
    59:09
    perfect i still think we should check out the um the battle place if you want if if you
    59:15
    want cool brass but i think we also got something else to check on the rubble i was never when i was young i didn’t
    59:21
    have such great companions that were that would um fight with me and beside me in the rubble
    59:27
    i’m gonna send you guys i’m gonna send you guys um your copy of the map
    59:35
    but basically what is in there i’m gonna i’m gonna show you i’m gonna
    59:41
    share screens with you with a much better map and i’m going to give you
    59:48
    next session i will draw up how’s this freak uh this is this is what you get for
    59:54
    asking these sorts of questions linda
    1:00:00
    okay do you guys see this yeah our argent has a great sense of humor he can
    1:00:05
    do a lot to him he’s um your little
    1:00:11
    section of the map includes uh griffin gate and he’s
    1:00:18
    he’s cut the line right down the road that goes from griffin gates
    1:00:23
    into the hotlands and then he um carved it going south
    1:00:30
    east right so um where where the that road
    1:00:36
    the the roads joined right where the n is it heads east to
    1:00:43
    about the a and then goes back again towards the the the big wall so blind
    1:00:51
    king’s hill and blind seems castle an old flint nail fort would be in our area yep that’s what he gave you
    1:00:58
    blind kings hill plus the main quarry um
    1:01:03
    and the area around griffin’s gate uh which is marked with ballastors barracks
    1:01:13
    and and and given that to you and now and everything in that is yours
    1:01:21
    he says if you can take it yeah yeah
    1:01:26
    once again you you humble as greg king so there is where he he says that you
    1:01:33
    should be able to find an artifact within here that meets your specifications in kala thank you so much
    1:01:42
    thank you we will not disappoint you if we survive this i
    1:01:52
    i get the feeling that cobras one arm is getting getting even more dubious about his chieftains wisdom
    1:01:59
    yeah he’s losing it i mean i remember him as as the chief of
    1:02:04
    the pirates and he always knew what he was doing and the way he was going and there was lots of plunder
    1:02:10
    wasn’t there nisk and now it seems sort of random uh you think it’s more hazard than there
    1:02:17
    is um yeah ever yeah ever since that that night when he
    1:02:24
    smoked too much i think he’s you know gonna be off the wheel
    1:02:29
    sorry last for me [Laughter] says the totally sober straight edge
    1:02:38
    yeah did he not raise the dragon has he not reduced the empire of the
    1:02:43
    moon to its knees we don’t know that we haven’t been
    1:02:50
    and that’s what my question is is that you guys have received your certificate uh
    1:02:56
    or your your section on the map but it sounds like what you really want to do is head out to henders ruins
    1:03:02
    i think we want to check that out sounds good do you wanna learn how to ride garen
    1:03:10
    i am certainly up for that you have to fall off a bison is that what our graph
    1:03:18
    men ride by the way he’s uh we we can’t strip him
    1:03:23
    onto the bison so he does not fall down bison or um zebras
    1:03:30
    okay definitely bison okay well with that are you so you guys
    1:03:38
    plan is to head out to um across prax to henders ruins i think so
    1:03:49
    okay then what i would like to do is take a very very short break
    1:03:56
    so i can think about that for five minutes okay i’ll pause it recording
    1:04:04
    and we are back after a very important refreshment break so
    1:04:14
    it’s about 200 kilometers from new pavis to henders ruins
    1:04:22
    you think it’ll take uh somewhere between a week and
    1:04:28
    10 days to get there [Music] and assuming you have a guide
    1:04:37
    because how well do you know the plains of prax you’ve actually already been there
    1:04:43
    so you have been there we might remember the way you might remember parts of the way
    1:04:50
    yeah that’s true
    1:04:57
    i suspect you’ll be able to get general details like we should head west and then at
    1:05:02
    some point go southwest but traveling across the desert you might
    1:05:10
    want to have a guide
    1:05:15
    so the first question is how well does nisk have praxion a prax
    1:05:24
    has it that um why not as well as our shaman um but tracked lore
    1:05:30
    it’s in the location yeah um you might not have my home landlord
    1:05:37
    considering i was too what i left two when i left starter uh your home is pavers county
    1:05:44
    okay so i’ve got a pretty good tavis county lawyer and i don’t apparently i didn’t learn anything the
    1:05:50
    entire time i was like which is actually entirely possible you were probably not taught
    1:05:56
    uh you know where all things were you just traveled along with everybody else
    1:06:02
    you and you were already an adult you learned how to ser yeah you know how to survive there i
    1:06:09
    learned how to um what else i guess manage things so i’m probably in charge of some stuff
    1:06:15
    but not in direction in college you know how to get us there
    1:06:21
    you’re muted that’s exactly how ankala would answer
    1:06:28
    so in college i will try
    1:06:33
    i really have no clue i roll in 97. i’m clueless absolutely completely
    1:06:40
    clueless so yeah we need a guide this might be a fumble even
    1:06:51
    97 i think might be just outside of from how bad is your skill it’s 40. oh it’s a not quite a fun yeah
    1:06:58
    i think it’s almost almost a fumble one point above fumble
    1:07:07
    um i think you guys need a guide well i will say
    1:07:14
    that i know a lot of friendly praxians who drink my beer and call me friends and maybe one of them knows a lot about
    1:07:22
    about travels who’s brave enough to go out to uh out of the old battle location i’m gonna
    1:07:28
    give you three options all right three three options
    1:07:37
    um there is a sock the bison writer hassak
    1:07:45
    uh loves you guys he’s been drinking your beer for free for the last three seasons that’s
    1:07:53
    why he like loves you guys he’s um a bison writer who regularly
    1:08:02
    goes across prax to um swenston probably to get more beer
    1:08:10
    all right so
    1:08:15
    the key things about hassak is he knows his beer he loves you guys for giving him free
    1:08:22
    beer and he’s been along the way before other than that you’ve got no idea how
    1:08:29
    competent he is or not there is also rania
    1:08:34
    the sable writer who often hangs out uh there’s run near you know
    1:08:42
    is a a skilled warrior and is familiar with the path between
    1:08:50
    uh the paths between pavus and swenston so and and so that would be basically
    1:08:57
    the the path across prax that you guys gonna have to go through he’s he’s competent but he is also a
    1:09:04
    stable rider and do i really need to say anything
    1:09:10
    more than he is also a saber writer is that a problem for any of us
    1:09:17
    well stable riders who do they side with they started with the lunars yeah so
    1:09:23
    they did and there is um
    1:09:30
    uh also
    1:09:40
    despite his name is an apollo writer
    1:09:47
    and uh the impala writers so he’s probably got a size of six he is very talkative
    1:09:56
    uh and and very hyperactive he is and he likes to talk about things
    1:10:03
    that you all have no interest in whatsoever like um i don’t know various types of
    1:10:12
    of vegetation in the praxion chaparral different words for sand
    1:10:20
    uh minecraft uh you know various other things that
    1:10:27
    hyperactive impala writers talk about basically you’re dealing with my son um
    1:10:34
    and he’s an impala writer so you get to pick one as your guide you
    1:10:40
    have three options um can i make an inside check to see if any of them are completely
    1:10:45
    blowing smoke and their knowledge of things to get there
    1:10:52
    uh i fail so they’re all skit they’re all praxions of course
    1:10:58
    they know prax like the back of their hand that’s what they’re told all the all the time although it should be pointed out that the uh the bison writer
    1:11:06
    where often wears ma um uh vam braces over his
    1:11:12
    hands so we might not actually know the back of his hand particularly well okay so which one do you want is your
    1:11:18
    guide can anyone have a recommendation out of character a sock sounds great in
    1:11:26
    character i am not going anywhere with the man who drinks that much cannot trust them he has no discipline
    1:11:33
    my option would be uh so we have a problem then because that one i think will
    1:11:39
    jabber so much i’ll want to kill them you just have to restrain yourself a bit
    1:11:45
    because i think he’s the best option as well he might be quite interesting if he talks about interesting things
    1:11:53
    i think that’s a big if well gina gina how excited are you to be
    1:11:59
    traveling with a small hyperactive impala writer
    1:12:06
    any dance uh they’re i don’t know maybe i think the impalas
    1:12:14
    do not stick as bad as bisons no they don’t stink as bad as bisons
    1:12:20
    so and they don’t i do not like lunar so that’s the reason why stable do not
    1:12:26
    count so i don’t know if i like these pygmies
    1:12:33
    i mean nothing against disabled rider to be honest but there’s a couple here someone hates
    1:12:39
    the bison or is concerned about the bison somebody’s another one yeah i mean bison stink i’m sorry
    1:12:47
    i don’t want to smell like a bison but i think the table is not much better oh they’re bison is bigger we
    1:12:53
    have two bisons that are going with us god so well this thing will be there
    1:12:59
    anyway regardless of who is the guide
    1:13:05
    i mean then i’m actually i think we have to go for the bison because otherwise impala guy gets trampled by the two
    1:13:12
    bisons in the high llama we have a high level with us too
    1:13:19
    why you say guys why don’t you know how to where to go why do we need a guide
    1:13:24
    you are from here i’ve never been really honestly no i’ve never been west of the
    1:13:30
    river yeah i’ve only gone south through a maelstrom
    1:13:36
    to france how about how about us this is nice of my priest
    1:13:43
    a book dude why would i do that he doesn’t know anything like he told me that he was already in the
    1:13:49
    rubble he said we’re not going to the rubble we’re going to this bait this um had any of them been at the
    1:13:55
    battle that’s the question no there’s oh these guys
    1:14:00
    uh i’m sure all of them have been all of them were at that battle how many have they killed i won’t have
    1:14:07
    the one with the highest head count that is the saber right
    1:14:23
    do we know uh he probably given to where he is but inkhala make
    1:14:30
    actually ankala and nisk both make apraxian culture lore
    1:14:35
    yeah do you succeed yeah no my culture is pretty good nisk
    1:14:43
    you know that the other praxian tribes have a a saying never trust
    1:14:50
    a sable the sables have the ability to
    1:14:57
    switch sides on a dime
    1:15:02
    no no they are notorious for switching sides to whatever side will win as a result of
    1:15:10
    their assistance how many of these kills were stopped in the back
    1:15:17
    so no stable unless we plan to just always
    1:15:24
    be on the winning side as well well we plan it it doesn’t mean it
    1:15:29
    always happened does it we planned on the winning time the last time went to that battle we weren’t
    1:15:35
    yeah whose fault was that anyway let’s um
    1:15:43
    that’s right um so it’s the impala rider or the bison
    1:15:48
    i say the impala ryden
    1:15:59
    [Music] either or on those two i both won’t be
    1:16:07
    annoying the one one will stink of drink all the time and the other one would talk too much
    1:16:13
    but i’ll just be on the back and take this jabber to you guys and i can just hide out a little behind or in
    1:16:19
    front so i won’t kill him then
    1:16:26
    okay i’m fine with the impala rider then for this trip oh waha tall
    1:16:34
    offers a very very reasonable rate he wants
    1:16:39
    one silver lunar per day
    1:16:44
    he wants you to provide him beforehand for you all to
    1:16:51
    pay for all the food that he wants you food and water that he wants you to bring
    1:16:59
    do you guys provide all the supplies how much can he eat i mean he’s like we call you the tongue
    1:17:07
    he’s interactive he’s got this you know he’s he’s he’s he’s actually a pretty
    1:17:14
    strong athletic guy but he’s got a nice big belly because
    1:17:20
    because he’s he’s a hungry impala he’s like i
    1:17:27
    he can eat he’s he’s definitely the taco king of our group does this means you have to
    1:17:32
    put him on a diet [Laughter] he’s not fat but he’s got a belly
    1:17:40
    okay what else does he want um and other than that he wants a
    1:17:48
    uh full cut of anything you take so a full share
    1:17:56
    he’s gonna fight because they have like little bowsers what do they fight with
    1:18:02
    they they fight actually he points out that they fight with uh what’s called the pr
    1:18:07
    what your people call the praxion bow which is a recurved composite bow
    1:18:14
    um and he he he wagers
    1:18:23
    uh that if there is um an actual fight
    1:18:31
    and not one not one of your um sword brother duels
    1:18:37
    but an actual fight like men have he wagers he can kill more than more
    1:18:43
    than any um any of you it was like a challenge yep that’s what waha tall says
    1:18:52
    and waha tall then talks about the various different types of bows
    1:19:00
    interesting and goes into great detail on the various different types of bows
    1:19:06
    and then from there wants to talk about the various different types of stuff you can make the strings for the
    1:19:14
    various different types of yes he’s a talker he brags about killing people in actual fights
    1:19:21
    using a bow yes so not not from eye to eye steel to steal blade to blade and now he
    1:19:28
    will tell you he will tell you flat out only idiots and trolls fight that way
    1:19:35
    and only cowards and children use bones i bet half of them die from boredom when he talks to them
    1:19:44
    this is going to be a great exhibition
    1:19:53
    [Laughter] i listen to you guys i said okay we
    1:19:59
    could have a quiet drunk we would have been fine but this gonna be a great warrior and let’s go find out
    1:20:05
    yes waha tall is very very proud of his impala which he
    1:20:12
    it has a uh it’s a beautiful impala it is it is its name is hoppy
    1:20:21
    oh great almost like my llama’s name is opie what is this
    1:20:29
    that’s crazy and hoppy
    1:20:38
    all the way the oh gosh i think it’s it’s two or three
    1:20:47
    days travel across um uh i’m gonna pull up a map here for you
    1:20:53
    guys for just a quick moment [Music]1:20:59
    you all need to take [Music]1:21:05
    there it is too many applications i blame of the fact that i now have four
    1:21:11
    different uh meeting applications up for this
    1:21:17
    it’s kind of bad it’s horrible okay do you guys see this there’s the big rubble new paves
    1:21:24
    yep the first bit is according to him is that you all need to
    1:21:31
    head across the area called the long dry
    1:21:37
    to the dwarf knoll which he says is a uh a hill
    1:21:44
    with uh an area called the with uh copper caves in it we won’t go to the on
    1:21:50
    to the knoll because that’s bad luck um very very bad luck but
    1:21:56
    we will go over there it’ll take us two or three days to get there and from there it should only be it
    1:22:04
    should be less than a week to henders ruins but the long dry
    1:22:09
    is exactly as described it’s long and it’s dry and
    1:22:17
    has anybody ever actually been in the desert in real life depends on the desert
    1:22:24
    you have been claudia depends on what you call a desert uh i would consider the sonora desert
    1:22:33
    the mojave desert and the great basin to all be deserts
    1:22:38
    and you’ve been to all three of them um do you remember how bleak those deserts
    1:22:44
    were rocky stoney there’s not this is not
    1:22:50
    something that there’s even a lot of chaparral and this is late autumn so it’s still
    1:22:57
    hot and this has been after two seasons of no
    1:23:04
    rain so it’s a tough
    1:23:10
    ride for you all i want everybody to make a r hydraul or suffer
    1:23:17
    or survival uh no ride no i’m i’m bad at riding i’m almost
    1:23:26
    terrible at riding you fumble on my bison you’re never riding the bike swinging in
    1:23:31
    98 you succeed yes
    1:23:39
    [Laughter] oh i’m writing like i’ve never written before
    1:23:44
    before yeah i didn’t make it
    1:23:51
    if you have a skill above 50 i’m not even gonna make you uh roll for it for this if you have
    1:23:58
    skill under 50 i’m gonna make you raw
    1:24:05
    claudius succeeded how about you cole breast uh i didn’t succeed okay
    1:24:13
    so cold breast but you got just an ordinary fail right yep
    1:24:20
    until you get um a couple of days of rest not on your animal
    1:24:28
    you are effectively 1d3 hit points
    1:24:34
    less than usual so would you roll that right now
    1:24:42
    oh three points great yeah you’re down three i mean i mean you’re basically that’s
    1:24:48
    horrible why did i ever think of going there anyway you’re dehydrated
    1:24:54
    you’re in pain you have muscle ache you have back ache from all of this
    1:25:01
    and then there’s then there’s Garan who fumbled
    1:25:10
    i would like you to roll 1d3 plus 3.
    1:25:16
    that is a 5. you’re also my until you get a couple of days
    1:25:24
    where you just get off this damn animal and walk around you’re also effectively
    1:25:33
    at five hit points less than usual and the the idea here is you just you’re
    1:25:39
    you’re you’re you’re already so screwed up with your back and everything everything else than that
    1:25:46
    it’s just easier it would be you’re you’re weaker in combat you know it
    1:25:53
    and you’re right now suffering under a minus 20
    1:26:01
    uh uh penalty on physical activities
    1:26:07
    and again i ask if this sounds like a big harsh has anybody done much writing in their in
    1:26:14
    the real world yes um yeah yes okay can you most of us when we’ve
    1:26:22
    we’ve ridden have probably ridden in nice comfy environments on a nice
    1:26:29
    animal that is very placid and relaxed in in relatively easy terrain right
    1:26:38
    you’re riding on a freaking bison Garan a bison it’s not a
    1:26:45
    uh it’s not a pleasant animal imagine how wide you have to have your legs all the time
    1:26:54
    i’m reconsidering joining the sword brothers [Laughter]1:27:01
    it’s this this is awful you are and do you know what saddleburn is
    1:27:08
    yes you’ve got saddleburn everything that you have ever heard
    1:27:13
    about people come complaining about writing Garan you’re having it right now
    1:27:19
    [Laughter] now the good thing about it is with
    1:27:27
    a couple of days rest you’ll be completely recovered
    1:27:34
    but it takes you two or three days to get to the dwarf knoll um and after getting through the long
    1:27:42
    dry and that that there’s there’s no real activity here because
    1:27:48
    this is just a big it’s a big rocky hill um in the middle of the desert there are
    1:27:56
    known to be caves here but he doesn’t he has you guys camp on the other side
    1:28:03
    his plan is to camp one night here
    1:28:08
    that is not enough to have you uh recover cole brast or garrett
    1:28:21
    yeah it’s just for the animals it’s just enough time for for you all to be able to deal with it
    1:28:26
    gotta go look after this bison what did you do to it [Music]1:28:32
    what did it do to me it’s broken me yeah you guys need to
    1:28:38
    decide uh Garan and cobras are not looking good do you continue you on or do you um
    1:28:47
    stay a couple of days of the dwarf knoll i would have to roll again then no no we go on
    1:28:52
    how much does vigor help does what oh bigger the spell
    1:29:00
    bigger oh bigger it’s short-term bigger increases your con by your cons figure accuses your
    1:29:06
    constitution by half by eight or something but it’s um it’s only a few minutes it’s just two
    1:29:11
    minutes it won’t help for this it could be good in combat put it schnitzel under your butt
    1:29:17
    okay we’re getting these casts heal on on the saddle burns and stuff right
    1:29:24
    actually i have first aid i can put together a an ointment yeah
    1:29:31
    i usually what i use for corpses to make them smooth i can
    1:29:40
    [Laughter]1:29:48
    embalming fluid i love it
    1:29:54
    all right so you’re getting a massage some ointment into their butt
    1:29:59
    no they massage it on their own but i i provide them some ointments claudia i will let you try a first
    1:30:08
    aid to see if you could help them a little bit um
    1:30:14
    [Music] i i need my character sheet now i don’t
    1:30:20
    have a character sheet i give it to you i do why don’t you come over to the
    1:30:26
    other place can you come over please pretty please
    1:30:33
    yes your first date is 70 no i don’t make it but can you make my
    1:30:40
    check please for my writing that’s very important i will bring your character i don’t know
    1:30:46
    when i ever will do that again that i have actually success in writing so hey gang by the way this is part of the
    1:30:52
    the the joys of internet gaming i’m gonna walk over to the other room and have my laziest player her character
    1:31:00
    sheet i’m not your laziest player can you also bring a pencil
    1:31:10
    so shall we stay shall we ride on
    1:31:16
    i think i think we can keep going
    1:31:22
    you don’t look as as if you really thought that Garan but
    1:31:37
    [Laughter]1:31:43
    not as strangely as him but you’re probably writing a lot right um yeah but i would actually vote for
    1:31:51
    staying here for a few days but well i mean if if if cole brass feels we must stay here for another
    1:31:57
    couple of days then i feel it would be remiss of me too
    1:32:03
    uh do we have think we have enough supplies probably you tell me how crazy did you
    1:32:10
    guys go on purchasing or not
    1:32:15
    i’m generally pretty careful about it that’s one of the things if we talk about what i used to do in the in the weights was you know i assume
    1:32:22
    that my the fact that i have a pretty good actually a very good um
    1:32:27
    managed household was actually that sort of stuff i did for the extra the exiles in um that were with our graph so i
    1:32:33
    think i’m actually pretty good at that area roll against your survival and you know
    1:32:39
    at sea you always sort of calculate for you know loads and things
    1:32:44
    okay my my survival is i will succeed
    1:32:53
    okay you have enough and and here’s the other thing is that in another three or four days
    1:33:01
    you should be at the oasis of moon broth um can i make a comment
    1:33:08
    yes of course you can as i am now in the i’m a shaman now i can basically just
    1:33:15
    get whatever spells i want yes so detect water is
    1:33:25
    yeah it’s amazing more people don’t pick detect water yes so i
    1:33:32
    i have picked detect water because i was kind of thinking these people don’t know how to survive in the desert
    1:33:37
    so yeah i’ll cast it and go no i’m not going to make you have
    1:33:45
    to roll on this because you’ve got detect water you can cast it over and over again during
    1:33:51
    the course of the day and we’re not rushed for time are we with you guys here you will be able to
    1:33:58
    for find a source of water on the dwarf knoll so
    1:34:06
    you’re gonna be there for a f uh would you um claudia
    1:34:12
    two or three two
    1:34:18
    it will take three days for him to recover i was pulling the evil double the evil
    1:34:25
    double bluff uh you’re there for three days for cobrast or Garan to be able to uh
    1:34:33
    recover in that what i would like is i would like Garan because he’s the
    1:34:40
    source of luck roll a 1d 100 from why is he known for that
    1:34:48
    i can’t remember oh 28
    1:34:56
    all right so the biggest issue that you guys have while you’re
    1:35:03
    um uh have your camp over by um uh the dwarf knoll
    1:35:11
    is i would like you all to make a listen raw
    1:35:21
    yep no um that’s a three of 49. oh wow
    1:35:28
    okay there is a pack of hyenas
    1:35:36
    um they’re not there’s too many of you guys for them to be willing to try to
    1:35:41
    to come into your camp but there’s a pack of them that have decided that maybe if you guys
    1:35:48
    ever move you know if you leave this camp or uh
    1:35:55
    leave anything around maybe there will be some food or something they can go for but there is a pack of hyenas that
    1:36:03
    decide that they’re gonna follow you off and i don’t do i like do i like hyenas i
    1:36:09
    don’t think so do i nobody likes tininess because they eat the dead
    1:36:15
    they eat the dead they’re horrible animals they’re they eat everything and they’re
    1:36:21
    very very dangerous
    1:36:26
    no they are not swines and they’re not an earth animal yeah i mean there’s a myth about them
    1:36:36
    yes you know well roll against your coat lore
    1:36:42
    oh no problem so so um hyenas are
    1:36:49
    cursed according to the the lightbringers uh and that uh hyena skin
    1:36:57
    there is uh one uh one of the sons of issaries
    1:37:04
    was cursed uh with the duty of trying to reconstruct
    1:37:10
    the god jenner who used to be the ruler of prax when it was a glorious
    1:37:16
    feaking fertile garden uh
    1:37:21
    he was destroyed by chaos but the but the hyenas ate parts of him
    1:37:29
    and the idea is is that every hyena has a swallowed and stolen a little
    1:37:37
    piece of genard and they are the reasons that uh at least at some level that prax is not fertile and so there’s
    1:37:45
    some there are some lightbringer cults that will just kill hyenas on on-site to try to do a favor for
    1:37:52
    esseries
    1:37:58
    is Orlanth one of those cults well uh Orlanth is the lightbringer orlando
    1:38:03
    is the leader of the lightbringers so does he kill so i do so we have to kill
    1:38:09
    it’s not a cult obligation it’s just what some cultists um some members of the cult do
    1:38:15
    on the other hand uh highness are actually really dangerous animals
    1:38:20
    they could they do just to give you an idea they um their bite is one of the most
    1:38:28
    powerful bites in the animal world does one d six plus one d4 damage
    1:38:34
    geez you can lock on their own stuff too and and having been on on c all my life
    1:38:42
    i probably don’t really know about hyenas anyway so
    1:38:48
    strange animals with four legs and do you guys know what a hyena laugh
    1:38:56
    actually sounds like yeah it’s terrible
    1:39:02
    i’m just going to play this and see if this uh is this coming out
    1:39:07
    [Music] no that’s unfortunate it’s all
    1:39:12
    awful sound but it sounds like this this creepy laugh and you can hear it for
    1:39:19
    kilometers
    1:39:25
    and these are the guys hanging around that are gonna follow us and they are hanging around basically
    1:39:30
    trying to keep outside of a hundred to two hundred meters from your camp
    1:39:36
    [Music] but they stayed there well i guess it depends on when we’re going to go leave
    1:39:43
    if they we should talk to our guide here um if we should you know if they’re going
    1:39:48
    to try and follow us then that’s a problem [Music]1:39:53
    we’ll need to drive them off well waha tall says oh yeah heinous
    1:40:01
    they’re terrible and they’re terrible things you know if we could ride fast we can out ride them
    1:40:09
    they give up they’re lazy animals no i cannot ride them just in college if
    1:40:16
    i ride them there we go
    1:40:22
    uh he asked whether you think um uh your two companions
    1:40:29
    are able to write it all can they they haven’t shown it much yet okay
    1:40:35
    actually to be honest no no this is waha tall’s opportunity to show
    1:40:40
    his worth he just kind of rides towards the because you complain about them he’s
    1:40:47
    defense he he rides out on his apollo towards them um and just starts shooting his
    1:40:55
    his bow with them because he’s actually quite good with
    1:41:02
    with his bow and even though hyenas are fast animals they are not as fast as
    1:41:09
    uh an impala and he drives waha tall by himself
    1:41:16
    with his awesome archery kills nisk i want you to roll 1d6
    1:41:27
    you know he kills one of the hyenas and that’s enough to get them to to uh run off
    1:41:36
    and he goes back he goes back up to you Garan and he goes
    1:41:49
    anybody can kill dumb animals let’s see you in a duel with a man and then we shall see who is the mighty
    1:41:56
    warrior here by the way he’s size six garen
    1:42:01
    i’m liking this guy now he’s a good pick he’s definitely a warrior i think we’re doing all right with him
    1:42:07
    yeah yeah he’s okay i’m more i’m more willing to listen if you can tell me a little bit of stuff about the trail
    1:42:14
    we just have to be very careful like Garan doesn’t go out hunting
    1:42:21
    with with the subtle sword i’ve got the only thing you know i love the fact that the
    1:42:28
    the irony is of this party Garan is the killing machine no he’s not
    1:42:35
    maybe he’s a sinker he’s actually secretly he’s making poems
    1:42:42
    is that is that gina’s now a new belief about Garan and his saddle sores and he’s maybe
    1:42:49
    shadow dancing with his sword or something like that
    1:42:56
    poor karen uh okay so let’s begin the the the next section of this which is
    1:43:04
    i’m gonna put this on uh the screen again
    1:43:10
    and that is the travel from
    1:43:17
    this is sure so you see dwarf knoll and they’re gonna head all the way
    1:43:23
    across to the oasis of moon broth and
    1:43:29
    waha tall tells you it’s very important not to head too far to the south
    1:43:36
    until we have gone past the dead place we don’t want to go to the dead
    1:43:43
    place that would be very bad
    1:43:53
    and nobody asks what it’s just out of
    1:43:59
    curiosity why would that be bad i mean obviously the name is
    1:44:04
    has a certain ring to it but what is that he tells you that the dead
    1:44:12
    place is where storm bull was thrown to the ground
    1:44:17
    by the devil and aratha gave up
    1:44:24
    all the powers of life in the earth there to be able
    1:44:30
    to heal storm bull who so he could continue to fight against the devil but within there there
    1:44:37
    are no spirits there is no magic
    1:44:42
    there is no water and the very air is poisonous
    1:44:49
    okay let’s stay far away is there any way to sort of notice
    1:44:55
    beforehand you’ll recognize what you’re um
    1:45:01
    when you were in the dead place but it is best to stay a good distance away
    1:45:18
    so i want one more dice raw from lucky one arm
    1:45:26
    as you guys are heading from dwarf nola to moon broth we’re gonna have one more random um
    1:45:35
    uh event and philip i’d like you to roll the dice because you’re almost as lucky as garen
    1:45:43
    let’s have a look 17. okay if that first i want you guys to
    1:45:50
    make your uh roll on uh
    1:45:56
    ride 46 success
    1:46:02
    13 success you learned something garen
    1:46:09
    don’t be tense all the time relax relax and make your body sink into
    1:46:18
    this be one with the bacon yeah i didn’t make it it’s just this land on
    1:46:24
    land traveling it just doesn’t work for me at all
    1:46:29
    how about you gina oh it’s for me it’s fine you succeeded again yes i’m very lucky
    1:46:36
    today all right so let’s go um cobrast
    1:46:42
    1d3 yeah to general hitpoints
    1:46:49
    um that would be a two all right the main thing that happens
    1:46:57
    um that you all have to deal with as you’re crossing uh um prax through this region
    1:47:05
    is that you can see a band of about two
    1:47:12
    you could see a band of about a half dozen sable riders
    1:47:20
    you should have gotten with a saber rider oh or not there’s six of them there’s six of them
    1:47:27
    there’s six of you all i have my horn of
    1:47:34
    intimidation how far away are they uh
    1:47:40
    they are once you guys really become aware of each other i’ll say that you guys are about 250
    1:47:47
    meters away
    1:47:59
    so that’s the question they’re watching you all they’re stable riders we can’t trust
    1:48:07
    them
    1:48:15
    yeah what would they be doing in the middle of the desert they’re
    1:48:22
    practicing they live here well not here
    1:48:29
    i don’t know who would want to live here come on you’re just pulling my leg hey
    1:48:34
    you’re offending me here you’re not living here you’re not living
    1:48:40
    there you left but in color i grew up here well not here but
    1:48:47
    to the east anyway yeah prax is the sacred land of the presidents
    1:48:54
    yeah but you left exactly that’s where left practice is
    1:49:01
    still in cracks all right so the sable riders
    1:49:09
    they form up a little bit and they begin to slowly move towards you all
    1:49:17
    not like they’re about to charge but more like they’re they’re trying to
    1:49:24
    to scope you all out and size you up
    1:49:32
    okay well we’ll do this i’ll do the same thing i have to make a short break yeah
    1:49:39
    chef okay um yeah i have to we’ll be back don’t leave just
    1:49:49
    sorry yeah just only just leave it just um you can set that up just yeah put your
    1:49:55
    things in the way all right so there’s something called the layout there’s a group of six stable
    1:50:01
    writers and they’re slowly trying to gain on you all and
    1:50:10
    one of them um their their leader
    1:50:20
    puts up his spear mm-hmm but uh more um
    1:50:27
    uh as if he wants to parlay okay i’ll go parley a little bit
    1:50:36
    come if we both go then they’re going to bring another guy right so just be aware of that and
    1:50:44
    you can’t ride i’m already on your bison i know i fear for the bison
    1:50:53
    well i think i’m happy for any break so i’ll just wait here
    1:50:58
    so i’ll go up and see what i’ll go yeah i’m not quite getting close to him getting near where he is in terms of that right so
    1:51:06
    uh there is uh there are two sable writers that
    1:51:12
    write up to you and Garan uh male and female
    1:51:19
    and and uh the the saber writer let’s see if he can speak any oh yes he can speak praxion
    1:51:26
    obviously he says something and practicing can you understand praxion of course i can understand practicing
    1:51:32
    how well no problem um i rolled the side it’s like 60 something
    1:51:40
    oh yeah you’ve got no problem following him your practicing is as good as his he um
    1:51:47
    uh he’s curious who you
    1:51:53
    are heading through prax um he says you ride bison but
    1:52:00
    are not bison riders and you have a high one of the high lama people with you
    1:52:07
    who’s your khan or do you serve one of the k do you serve one of the new kings
    1:52:14
    i serve the new king
    1:52:19
    i’ll look at him carefully seeing if he clinches with that asks um which one is he is he
    1:52:29
    is he the one in in in swenston or or or the one in johnstown or the one
    1:52:36
    in baltimore he is none of those our graph is our graph is the man
    1:52:43
    who um argat is the man who formed the white bull’s bull where people of all of all all
    1:52:49
    monks when they point back to the lama oh he he recognizes the white ball he says argos is the white soul you
    1:52:56
    brought jalden tooth toothmaker and reclaimed pavis for the practicing
    1:53:03
    he he um
    1:53:09
    he says that he was not at the battle um um
    1:53:17
    of he was not at the uh the battle
    1:53:23
    of the last uh of the last moon victory
    1:53:28
    which is what they call that battle yep this is um
    1:53:36
    but i understand that that that uh the white bull was badly hurt that is a
    1:53:42
    lie you would understand wrong though the white the white bull was not hurt
    1:53:49
    the white foe was busy summoning the dragon and you saw the dragon didn’t you the thing that screamed out of the sky
    1:53:55
    no one could miss that destroyed the lunar temple the crash that areas and changed mountains and tackled the moon
    1:54:06
    they say he says yes the the the
    1:54:14
    the the new lunar temple is no more it was
    1:54:19
    destroyed by the the the dragon and so were all the priests
    1:54:26
    i said uh he says i am josh farr uh wild
    1:54:33
    bow uh this is my my kinswoman uh delinda ex-sister
    1:54:42
    that’s the woman that writes with him uh and and and he says
    1:54:52
    i believe that without the um
    1:54:59
    that since the new learner temple is no more and given that the uh the kings
    1:55:08
    ins in dragon pass have now said that they they rule
    1:55:16
    themselves hey says i i have a proposition for you
    1:55:24
    what is your name sir named white ball my name is nisk
    1:55:29
    some call me the lucky wellness
    1:55:34
    there are six of you and there are six of us and up until a few days
    1:55:43
    up until they the dragon devoured everything i would say that it would be foolish for us to try to take
    1:55:49
    uh uh the rich goods uh that the the the lunars had put in moon broth
    1:55:58
    this is the oasis just about a day away from here this is perhaps together
    1:56:06
    we could take whatever is left there i would take my i would take half for
    1:56:12
    myself and my tribe and you could take half for you and your tribe
    1:56:17
    okay um would i know that moon broth was typically held by lunars that’s true right
    1:56:23
    yes with a name like boone broth that kind of sounds lunarish there was a big battle there
    1:56:28
    earlier right called the battle of moon rock yes i don’t know i can’t remember
    1:56:33
    he he he’s he’s offering that you all right in the boon broth
    1:56:41
    and together kill every soldier that’s there and take
    1:56:48
    whatever you can and he’ll get we’ll pile it up into a pile
    1:56:54
    i take half and you take half okay um can i try and use my insight to see how
    1:57:00
    what i think about this guy okay that’s a 23 so far better than trying to judge
    1:57:05
    our guards as a success seems to be trying to use this as an
    1:57:12
    opportunity to show that um
    1:57:18
    well i’m a young charismatic man
    1:57:24
    and a good war leader and you know there are people on my side that i wouldn’t rape
    1:57:29
    because they were too strong and they were on my side and they’re no longer strong because they’re no longer on my my side
    1:57:38
    why don’t we read them interesting i don’t think that um i’m not opposed it seems
    1:57:44
    reasonable um yeah he he basically he
    1:57:56
    and he makes it clear i have no beef with the white moon he he uh with the white ball the white
    1:58:02
    ball the white bull was blessed by jalden may jalden be praised
    1:58:11
    why don’t we ray why don’t we take the oasis let me talk to my companions i’ll come
    1:58:18
    back i’ll be right we’ll come back your um your your plan has merit
    1:58:23
    i say so i’ll wander back and we’ll ride back
    1:58:30
    and on the way Garan i’ll tell you what we talked about because i don’t think you speak
    1:58:35
    practicing do you i’ve got 25 in proxy okay so i just kind
    1:58:41
    of follow this okay so i go and i tell i i i mentioned it to Enkala who might be kind of more nervous about the table
    1:58:48
    and um told brast and gina and such that this is an opportunity yeah let’s do it okay hey yay
    1:58:56
    cobras there’s piracy this year what what are you waiting for you’re too long
    1:59:03
    on a pirate ship but they go in first i do not trust civil rights
    1:59:09
    i think we go we go in together as opposed to first but i can you’re right we’re not going
    1:59:14
    to ride in and have them on the side and yeah it doesn’t make any sense and we wouldn’t we wouldn’t do that um
    1:59:22
    darren if there is an opportunity here for you if you can do it there’s supposedly honorable magic that
    1:59:28
    humach can do which can help us with making deals with people like this that are dubious intent
    1:59:35
    can we do that i mean it doesn’t seem like a very
    1:59:40
    honorable pursuit raiding a
    1:59:47
    and i already know that we have got valuable information to tell our graph we may learn more from here and i shall
    1:59:55
    do everything i can to wait have you have you the ability to bind
    2:00:02
    him to a note you have the oath spell no i don’t
