Hello, and welcome to Eberron Noon, an actual play podcast sitting in the Eberron campaign setting. I am your game master, Eric. I'm Mia. I'm Madison. I'm Jeff.
00:00:33
Speaker
And welcome to another episode. Folks, what happened last time?
Recap of Airship Battle
00:00:39
Speaker
Boat fight. Air boat fight. yeah Balloon boy. Yes, balloon boy.
00:00:46
Speaker
I don't... Kaz flew again. It's not that weird. But he flew on a tether, which means... And he stretched all weird. and ah And he blew another boat out of the sky, but none of that's important.
00:00:59
Speaker
Balloon fight. Balloon fight. Boat fight. Balloon fight. Nobody talked to me. Balloon fight.
00:01:08
Speaker
I quit. Okay, well... Bye, guys. Bye.
Campaign Resumes with Absentee
00:01:13
Speaker
As you all can hear, we are without Silith for this session. Scheduling is hard during the school years, everyone. But we are excited to continue. So, yes, we had the airship battle.
00:01:27
Speaker
With Izzy frantically gets back on the right page of his notes. Against Ka and his crew. Yes. On Valira's ship with her crew.
00:01:39
Speaker
So...
Valira's Gratitude and Role
00:01:40
Speaker
so As the wreckage begins falling down to the ground onto the mountains that you all are flying over, Valira steps out. you Thanks for the assist.
00:01:54
Speaker
And she tosses a coin purse to Slayda. Thanks. this sir I'm sorry. Where was she? Because I thought she was on the deck. And then suddenly everyone started fighting and then she was gone. But she was the target. Yeah.
00:02:08
Speaker
Yeah. but she Did she just leave us? She totally left us. Are you asking her that? Zauka's going to ask, where did you go? i went to the Helm's Quarters.
00:02:23
Speaker
But it was your fight. And she's just i' i I outsourced it. And you did great. Unreal. i I don't understand what the confusion was about the transaction. I asked you all to defend the ship, and then you defended the ship.
00:02:38
Speaker
and Well, the conversation was more implied that you are going to be joining in on defending the not that we were the sole defenders of the ship. recommend not relying on implications during negotiation.
00:02:52
Speaker
Well, we did. We weren't negotiating. He just kind of landed, and then you were just gone. After to paying, or agreeing to pay, anyway.
00:03:02
Speaker
Wait, did that happen? I don't think... As soon as the ship was approaching, she said... i'll I'll pay you coin to defend my ship. And, oh, well, kind of snarkily said, well, we were going to do that anyway, but neat that we'll get paid to do it.
00:03:16
Speaker
So that sounds like me. That's true. Yeah.
Aftermath and Arrival at Adderport
00:03:20
Speaker
It's valid. Cass is going to ask, like, should, should we just let that fall? Should we? Is that?
00:03:28
Speaker
Oh, the mountains. Like, is it going to hit anyone? Is it going to crash on impact and be like, are we losing one of the three airships? in the Well, exploded. Yeah, that's already gone. It's basically on the way down. so Oh, i okay.
00:03:43
Speaker
I thought that just the helmsman's part... Because the wording was the helmsman part portion exploded. The rest of the boat could still be... Yeah. No. and so And I'm thinking borrowed time. ah Yeah.
00:03:56
Speaker
So borrowed time, campaign one reference for everyone, was like a galleon airship, like a massive one. This one was built for speed, so it was lost. Gotcha. Yeah. Yeah.
00:04:08
Speaker
In that case, Kaz would not have asked because he knew we were over mountains because he saw. Yeah. So, well done. And good to see how y'all do in a fight. I wish I could say the same.
00:04:23
Speaker
I'm not a fighter. I'm a heist person. Do well with straight up fights. And also, Kyle would have tried to grab me and jump back onto the ship and take off.
00:04:35
Speaker
He wanted me. So, that's why I hired you. Expect me. are there Are there more people capable of reaching us up here that are after you?
00:04:48
Speaker
No. We both agreed to screw over Kyle. So, other one in your square. Well, great.
00:04:57
Speaker
And, outside of Anything that's flying up here naturally won't be able to see us because of the camouflage, I'd say. Fair enough. Shouldn't be too far from Adderport at this point, though. Just couple more hours.
00:05:11
Speaker
So get ready land. And we'll have to make dock. ah Basically, there's a mouth of the river that goes into Adderbay. There's a small tower there that we'll be able to link up to.
00:05:25
Speaker
Left you on the box, but it'll be a bit of a walk into Adderport. You'll be on the because it's a town. How big of a town are we talking? I don't know anything about this place. Is this Jeff asking Eric or... No, this is this is Kaz asking Valero. Okay.
00:05:39
Speaker
Adderport, it's... It's the first large-ish settlement
Meeting Lashana at Path Drivers Guild
00:05:47
Speaker
in Cabar. It's only a couple thousand people, though. So, not tiny, not huge.
00:05:54
Speaker
But you could theoretically get lost in the town, especially you're outsider. How are outsiders viewed in Ataport? ah This is unsettled territory on the other side of the Endworld Mountains. So basically everyone's an outsider until they ingratiate themselves well enough. So outsiders are not looked down upon and are frankly expected.
00:06:14
Speaker
It's a town looking to grow. So it's it's a trading town, largely. They found a lot of mines of dragon shards. And so those get shipped out of Adderport when it's legitimate.
00:06:26
Speaker
And then the other places in Kabbalah, they get shipped out of when they're Oh, if Nyx was here to ask about that.
00:06:34
Speaker
We have how long? A couple hours. yeah I don't think Kaz feels well after, you know, everything. And I think he's going to be like, there yeah, you stretched out.
00:06:44
Speaker
That was weird. Yeah. No, you stretched out. And to Kaz, everybody else stretched out. Except for Val, which was probably weirder. And so I think he's going to be like, I saw some hammocks down below. I'm going to go.
00:07:00
Speaker
I'm going rest up. He doesn't say I'm going to go like cry for a little in the hammock. right He may not cry. he just may feel bad. Okay. Great.
00:07:13
Speaker
Anybody else have any questions? We good? I think I'm good. I'm good. Great. Well, rest up. can all know when we Wait. this yes not not Not for you, for Eric.
00:07:28
Speaker
It's like, what are you talking to yeah did to? Is the goblet man still physically like dead on the ship?
00:07:40
Speaker
So Karak is currently scooping up the corpse and going to be taking it below deck. Okay. It's finders keepers, I guess. It's fair enough. I found out how to kill something off the court. I was great robber.
00:07:57
Speaker
but Nick said it attacked us. So that's true. Yeah.
00:08:04
Speaker
But no, I was genuinely curious if anyone was actually going to handle that. And that was going to help handle that. if no one ti down and loot the bodies It's like since you all were hired as freelance, it's like a tech companies where anything you create while you're under their employee belongs to them. Any corpses you create under Valir's employee belongs to her. So I think I need to see a contract next time.
00:08:26
Speaker
but like Yeah, I think we did not do a thorough negotiation. like if you were to bring it up, she would just start looking and go, it's implied. And then what? I'm not going to argue with a woman in a and a hat. So my life, all these years, Mia, I guess, though, we do know. i mean, we can look at the coin purse and know what the jumping off point for the next negotiation is like. How badly do you need us to help you defend your ship?
00:08:50
Speaker
40 gold pieces. worth it on a coin purse. We require 80 for this sort of job from now on. If you want rights to our spoils. Yeah. Cool. ah Well, is there nothing else?
00:09:01
Speaker
We have exhausted Valira's knowledge of of the issue, right? Because she's just our ride. I mean, she would have more information about Adderport itself and the outlying area because she is a smuggler based out of Kibara.
00:09:15
Speaker
Right. there' are certain But like the specific job. Right. the She basically provided all the information that she had. Okay. Sorry, do we know where we need to go within Adderport?
00:09:28
Speaker
are we just kind of being... Yes, you were contacted. Like, the person that sent the letter with Valaira is Lashana, who is head of the Path Drivers Guild.
00:09:40
Speaker
And so Valaira will be able to point you the direction of their guild hall once you get into town. So...
Exploring Adderport and Observing Justice
00:09:46
Speaker
like and doki so Okay.
00:09:52
Speaker
Well, if there is no other questions, then after a couple of hours, Lyra goes down and disturbs a crying Kaz. but He decided not to cry. Thank you.
00:10:06
Speaker
She just lets you all know we are about to dock with the small tower. ah to So get ready. i yeah If she lets us know early enough, I do hustle up because I want to see the town from... i mean, yeah hard to hard to not...
00:10:21
Speaker
take advantage of getting an aerial view of where you're about to be. Yeah. So. but Yeah. Valk definitely would have just stayed outside for the the time. Yeah. Selena would too.
00:10:34
Speaker
So you all see the small. to Oh, hello. Yay. um you. I spent five hours dress shopping at the mall and that does something to your brain.
00:10:50
Speaker
Anyway, so my brain melted and I apologize. You're totally fine. ah So the small tower that Valira told you all they would be docking at, you see is what appears to be a massive tree that the top had been like chopped off, but it's it's pretty ragged. It doesn't look like it was a clean cut.
00:11:10
Speaker
And in fact, you all could probably easily tell it's almost like some kind of infestation hollowed the tree out and now it has been repurposed as makeshift sky dock for the formerly three now two airships that are running amok in the world so you can see in the distance though probably about a 20 minute walk away along the coast of this it's a jungle canvas also that you're looking down on kibara is an untamed jungle you see a clearing
00:11:47
Speaker
of a small ish town. It's a gathering of buildings. You see a few roads and some traditional docks with quite a few ships docked there, but it looks the the best thing that I can give you all. i wish I had a better way to put this.
00:12:06
Speaker
It's if, if an old west town was wet like it's not dusty it's not like like it's but it's that swamp like like yeah swamp town yeah yeah it's it's that same like there's like two biggish roads and just buildings on either side of them and like there's no infrastructure or urban planning going the why started building buildings and kept going I was just, i was racking my brain because you say Old West Town and you envision like arid, dusty. I mean, yeah. And that's like not it.
00:12:43
Speaker
So Valira, the ship pulls up alongside the not drawbridge. Like a skybridge? I mean, you're doing drawbridge. i know The game plank.
00:12:56
Speaker
Gangway. Okay, okay. Gangway, yeah, yeah. Gangway. Slides out onto to top of the hollowed out tree and Volaira says, well, we're gonna probably ah do a bit of work here, disembark before we head into town with some of our goods, but you all are more than welcome to head that way. There's a really clear path to get into town and if you...
00:13:19
Speaker
Once you get in, there is a fairly large building with a sign on it that shows some downed trees and a little pathway going through them. That's drawn. That's the Path Driver's Guild Hall.
00:13:32
Speaker
So that's where you would want to go to talk to Lashana. That's the name I didn't write down, Lashana. And it is... It's dusk-ish. It's probably going to be nighttime when you get to town.
00:13:44
Speaker
But in mind it's winter, so it's like... six o'clock at night and we're all dressed appropriately for the weather. Yes. Great. Sure. i but but yes You're in the jungle. So it's actually really hot. So you all get excited.
00:14:03
Speaker
No. Cass is wearing shorts and a hoodie because he's a teenager and they're all awful. 110 degrees, negative 10 degrees. Shorts and a hoodie. So any final party questions for Valir before you all disembark?
00:14:13
Speaker
i I don't have anything that would ok bring us any insight. Okay. Cool. So you all begin walking. Valera was not lying. There is a very clearly marked path from this hollowed out tree um to the town of Adderport.
00:14:29
Speaker
Only about a 20 minute walk. And when you get there, you see ah bit of a commotion going on. There is a large wagon with a couple of people like they were rummaging through it and you see somebody yelling at them.
00:14:47
Speaker
And as you get closer, you hear one of them say, we didn't know it was yours. We didn't know it was your wagon. We didn't know you were back in town. And it's like a shifter, a leopard shifter that is the one they're talking to.
00:15:05
Speaker
He goes, well, I understand that, so... Y'all can go. And the two men turned to again walking away. And Leopard Shifter pulls out a wand and shoots each of them in the knee.
00:15:17
Speaker
Back of me. Can't have people to try to steal from me. Go walking around without a link. So. And then he just like kicks his cap to you all and walks to the front of his wagon. This is in front. This is just all the way to the guild hall. This is not in front of. Yeah, this is just when you first came to town.
00:15:35
Speaker
there lots of witnesses and what just happened? Yeah. I mean, there were some people. yeah there were some people watching and it once once the wand went off, everyone just kind of turned and went about it but their business. so All right. Understood. When we get a little farther away, Kaz wants to ask Nyx, is this what all smuggling is like?
00:15:54
Speaker
Because it always this... I understand to ask if smuggling is lawless is insane, but also we all saw that, right? Every smuggling interaction has the potential to become that. Yes.
00:16:06
Speaker
most smuggling interactions not ah substantially different from the same kind of exchange of goods for cash that you would encounter in any other shop.
00:16:19
Speaker
But there's always the potential that someone requires you to resort to violence. I would also say that was not smuggling. That was just theft.
00:16:33
Speaker
And that's a consequence. So I would say that was not of fingers required. That violence was not required. That violence was gleefully given, I think. You have a reputation to maintain.
00:16:45
Speaker
I get it. Kaz files away things he understands about Nick now. Or at least things he thinks he understands about Nix before accurate. Okay.
00:16:56
Speaker
So the two notable buildings that you all see, you do see a little bit further down the aforementioned sign that Belira mentioned.
Mission Briefing by Lashana
00:17:04
Speaker
It's a large sign with a very well-painted image of jungle terrain being pushed aside in a path being driven through it.
00:17:13
Speaker
And you also see a bit closer to you all a Sign with a lantern with an ocean wave crashing over it. And based on the noise coming out of it, that is the tavern in Adderport. So if you all wanted to stop and you get a the land going straight to the Path Drivers Guild, you could.
00:17:33
Speaker
But there's nothing really pushing you that direction. You're not sure. You didn't narrate a menu on the ship, so I assume we're starving and haven't eaten anything at all. Absolutely. Actually, when when we were up top and we had all we all kind of said we would have have wanted to take a bird's eye view of the city, is this Path Drivers Guild kind of central? is it is there a Was there a central building that things kind of spiderweb radiate out from, like Burning Man?
00:18:01
Speaker
or and and And most primitive cities, I guess, also, like Rome or whatever. Like Burning Man or... buting You're not laughing, but I'm right.
00:18:13
Speaker
You can tell, like like I said, the town is built in a line. Like somebody like built a building and I just started building out from there. The tavern, it seems like you all entered on the newer end of town.
00:18:25
Speaker
Like they're building towards the bay. Okay. So the half of the town that the tavern and the Path Drivers Guild on, you get a sense have been here probably pretty early on, if not the beginning.
00:18:37
Speaker
Gotcha. Okay. have Are you guys hungry? No.
00:18:41
Speaker
I can eat. i would also... Not sure if we have accommodation. So it might be best to meet up with our contact first to see if we're paying for that or not. That's a good point.
00:18:58
Speaker
Yeah, wouldn't hurt. At least to announce ourselves. Okay.
00:19:06
Speaker
So, you all walked down to the Path Drivers Guild hall. There are some large double doors that are currently open. And as you all around the corner, you can see the majority of this main area that you walk into is a bit of a like sparring hall.
00:19:27
Speaker
There are a few like wooden mannequins and things like that set up. And then a couple of outright rings where you see people sparring with wooden weapons, wearing armor,
00:19:38
Speaker
You see in one of the rings, there are two people going at it hand to hand combat. But and it's it's a pretty loud environment. Off to your left, you do see a large like opening in the wall, like where a pain window would be for somebody to observe. But there's no window in it and there's a door next to it.
00:19:59
Speaker
And you can easily see an elf woman behind a desk writing in a ledger. Lashawna was described to you as an elf. Are you Lashawna? As you all enter the office, she looks up and why you saying?
00:20:13
Speaker
What can I do for you? Like, you're the people I sent for. You had possibly not too long. Probably. Probably so. but we We did what not too long ago? Had the run-in with Giselle over in Pella's watch.
00:20:28
Speaker
Yeah. She's right. I don't know. Well, this may cause him maybe this might be more appropriate. But Oh, wait. I'm so sorry. When I heard Giselle, I was thinking of somebody in you yeah where the tree was. yeah I don't think i would have answered that thinking clearly.
00:20:46
Speaker
But it's too late now, I guess. How does Lashana look?
00:20:52
Speaker
Outside of just an elf woman. The platonic ideal of an elf. She has very, very fair skin with like silver hair going down to her mid-back very angular features, you get a sense that the the type of... I mean, Slady, you would immediately clock this. She is pretty... Like, she looks like an Arenal Elf.
00:21:17
Speaker
Like, just the the features... Like, old, old-school Elf. Her dial-root does not match that, but... That's how we're relatively close to Arenal at Cabara, right? That's, i mean, yeah, it's off the coast, obviously, but yeah, this is, if you wanted a short, the shortest route from Corvair, we're pretty close to that. I think.
00:21:43
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. yeah We, we did have an interaction with, with a Giselle in Palace Watch. Yes. Yeah. That's yeah. See, but so That's partially why i was at your information. as She mentioned that she knew a couple of you from previous life.
00:22:01
Speaker
Unfortunate. I wouldn't say that. Phrase previous life in the context of Giselle the vampire. yeah But to the matter at hand, if you all want to take a seat, I'm more than happy to ah brief you all on why I called you out here.
00:22:16
Speaker
I assume Velira gave you the broad shorts about what's going on, you know? Yes, weird things are happening with weapons and people and they should not have that.
00:22:29
Speaker
I'm going to take back a fee if that's all she told you. Lizard folk and sentient weapons and some of them are fusing to them, becoming parts of them. yeah She also got us here.
00:22:45
Speaker
Yeah, but there was a fee for delivering information because pirates. Yeah, pirates. He says to himself aloud. No, so we have Path Drivers Guild.
00:23:01
Speaker
We are an organization committed to the expansion of settlement here in Gabara. So we are trying to clear out sections the jungle, identify places that would be quality strips of land for people to live, as more and more people seek to exit the war and find a place that is a bit more peaceful.
00:23:21
Speaker
um Most of the Path Drivers Guild's membership is Last War veterans that either did their duty or defected from the army because they did not want to continue killing people.
00:23:34
Speaker
So we have run into an issue where there is a, there's a point in the Southern part of the barn jungle that my people have been trying to make inroads into.
00:23:49
Speaker
And we've started running into lizard folk with these strange new weapons. We've gotten some headway pushing for the South. And the concentration grows in terms of the weapons. And we we think that there's a source.
00:24:06
Speaker
Where it's coming from is likely underground. um We had one team that made it far enough where one of them made it out alive in a certain state.
00:24:18
Speaker
And he described a making it to the mouth of a ancient like temple to Onitar.
Mystery of Lizard Folk Weapons
00:24:28
Speaker
that the lizard folk were coming out of. Empire.
00:24:31
Speaker
So we think that probably that hold up in there somewhere where the weapons are getting forged.
00:24:39
Speaker
I know this is
00:24:42
Speaker
Perhaps not a welcome question, but is there a It seems to me if the purpose here is to open new areas for settlement and to exploit the natural resources of this land, and you come into a place where you have an increased number of lizardfolk with bizarre weapons and it's affecting your people...
00:25:09
Speaker
And there are other places. Why is this place worth the risk that you're putting into it?
00:25:22
Speaker
Why not just turn aside to other places? what's What's here makes it necessary Well, there's lizard folk all over the peninsula.
00:25:35
Speaker
um And we've made inroads in diplomacy, and these particular ones seem to be very aggressive. But the concern is the weapons spreading and also what these weapons can do to people.
00:25:49
Speaker
These are not something the lizard folk have had, and they don't seem to be something that the lizard folk themselves... hey team Interested in forging? i I've spoken with enough of the lizard folk that live in this region to know they use stone weapons not because they can't forge the weapons, but because they like the way stone sounds when it breaks bone. so So, these these types of weapons of this chitinous material, it i would venture, the lizard folk, that there's an unseen third party in the equation that they speak dealt with.
00:26:26
Speaker
Also because, and she steps up and there's a door behind her desk. I mentioned the one that made it back in a certain state. Unfortunately, he did not last long.
00:26:37
Speaker
And she opens the door and gestures for you all to follow her into the next room.
00:26:45
Speaker
I will go first. I'll go next.
00:26:50
Speaker
Okay. So as a reluctantly follow, ah but sounds like there's gonna be fanny in there. You see a table ah with a, a body covered by a blanket that she walks over to you and pulls the blanket off. And you see the corpse of a human man laying on the table.
00:27:10
Speaker
And from around the, the, the body's not clothed around the lower rib area where there was obviously like some kind of wound, like a slice or something.
00:27:22
Speaker
And then all around that wound up to half of his face down to about halfway down his right thigh. His body is turned tightness. Like his body is mutated and morphed.
00:27:35
Speaker
And she was like, he was not entirely like this when he got back. He was hiding the infection of the wound. ah And then once it started to creep outside of the areas his clothes could cover up, it became apparent what was happening.
00:27:53
Speaker
What happened then?
00:27:56
Speaker
Eventually, he lost his wits, senses. lost his mind. I started rambling about hearing voices and whatnot and not being able to turn them off.
00:28:07
Speaker
And so we made the call to do a mercy. Does the place you are trying to get to have a name? i mean, it it is. i can mark it on the map for you.
00:28:20
Speaker
I do know that the the clan, lizard folk that we are dealing with are the Duskwing. Right. And what exactly would you like us to do about this? Figure out where these weapons are coming from, primarily, and stop the production of them.
00:28:38
Speaker
Whatever is down in that tip will make them. Get rid of it insofar as you can. theres a This is a very new development in the area, so it can't be too large of an operation, I would venture to guess.
00:28:52
Speaker
I've lost too many people just trying to get down in that region. Figure a smaller, more surgical team might get further. My folks Great in a straightforward fight, but they're not great for getting in undetected into places, which is the recommended route from my perspective. But it's not my job to tell you all how to do your job.
00:29:16
Speaker
So we know we are we were made aware that this was dealing with Zoriat, right? Likely. right That was the what Aurora and Javier's best guess. Assumption. Yeah.
00:29:30
Speaker
do Does Valk sense anything from the part of the body that is mutated?
00:29:38
Speaker
Give me... i would take a wisdom or intelligence check, and you can use any of your backgrounds related to... whichever your backgrounds is most related to Zoriac.
00:29:51
Speaker
five how you I mean, one is exposed to Zoriac, and the other is paranormal investigator. So... like I mean, I would take either whichever one is higher, honestly, because this would also fall under Paranormal Investigator.
00:30:07
Speaker
Well, they're they're split. They're the only two I have. So they're. Okay. Then do Soria. Um.
00:30:24
Speaker
Was this intelligence or wisdom? That was wisdom. That's my that's my boosted base boosted stat. So, Valk, there's a moment when you're looking at the corpse of this this human and seeing the chitinous plates kind of covering his body.
00:30:43
Speaker
and And there is almost this imperceptible kind compulsion in your mind to come on over, touch the chitinous plates. I was going to touch it. And stay as your hand gets within like an inch of the skin or formerly skin, you have this flash in your mind of a large being.
00:31:16
Speaker
that, hold on, let me make sure I get this description just right. Other ones. I think in the in the meantime, i i for everyone else, it is very obvious that Valk is not paying attention.
00:31:30
Speaker
Valk is not there. It's just like zoned in. From the moment it was drawn back, because even for me, that was that was the one thing that I wanted to see and why we went in first.
00:31:43
Speaker
You see a large swarm of various insects swirling about you, about you are wholly transported in your mind somewhere else.
00:31:58
Speaker
And the swarm begins to coalesce and reveal the ah a feminine looking face of a humanoid that then drops down over her shoulders.
00:32:17
Speaker
And the swarm looks to be almost like an elegant gown. And you see a chitinous crown sitting on her head. um and she looks at you.
00:32:32
Speaker
and gives a little smirk. You'll hit soon enough.
00:32:37
Speaker
And then Valk, you snap out of it. Nyx has grabbed Valk's hand and pulled it away from the chitin. Like, I assume all of that happened. That that action, Valk, like your hand being grabbed and jerked back, snaps you out of the melvin.
00:32:50
Speaker
Why are you touching me? Why are you touching the thing that infected this dead man and gradually grew across his body? think Valk is going take a look around and... Nix is holding your hand until like Nix is holding your hand until she is certain him that you are not going to do that again. Wait, like Valky's looking around like, was I? Because Kaz is nodding. Yeah, Silliza's nodding. Yeah, you did that. You did that.
00:33:18
Speaker
It was wild. I'm glad Nix grabbed you. I don't like this. I don't like many things. I don't i don't like this in particular. We are on the same page, right?
00:33:30
Speaker
Is there like a natural bug repellent? Do we, can we, is that something? e get Is that Valk or is that... Yeah, no, yeah, yeah, no, yeah, no. I mean, ants don't like cinnamon, what are we doing? Like a flying... Buzzing... This is either I don't know.
00:33:51
Speaker
Relevant to what just happened or a wild digression. And I don't find either... and particularly surprising I just which one it is matters as to can you stop touching me right
00:34:10
Speaker
think that's just gonna like brush himself off I think he's just gonna walk out he's not gonna answer anything he's just gonna leave oh he's gonna go back to the main office and just state does this body Eric does this body have attached to it uh one of these weapons No.
00:34:29
Speaker
But there's a wound visible from the weapon? Yes. I will not touch anything, but Nyx will crouch down and examine the wound ah to see if she can glean anything. Probably not, other than shape, maybe.
00:34:44
Speaker
Let's see if there's just anything to be gleaned other than than the very obvious fact that it's possible for these things to infect you. Yeah.
00:34:54
Speaker
Give me a check and I will take Shabrath. Touched if that's supposed to be. You're right. Does that make sense? Intelligence? Wisdom? Intelligence or wisdom? I'll take either.
00:35:05
Speaker
right. Go intelligence. Oh, that's not a good roll at all. See. You see what happens when I add everything to it. Eight and love. Yeah, it's an 11. Best you can tell is you think this blade was serrated.
00:35:17
Speaker
Sure. Why wouldn't it Or probably it has teeth. Yeah. she doesn't got Anything Kaz or Selina would like to do related to the body? I don't think so.
00:35:29
Speaker
Leave from it. As you all seem to be done in saving the body, Lashana throws the blanket back over it. She says, is there any reason why we need to... Are you all going to want to come back and examine this again?
00:35:43
Speaker
No. All right. I'm itching to burn it, but I figured it might be useful, so... Don't it? Where... Wear masks. Yes.
00:35:54
Speaker
Well, let's go back in the mile. Downwind of town. You all return to find Valk waiting for you all from Lashana's office. So, hope you all got something out of that. And Lashana pulls out whatever map you all have of the region, or hands you a map of the region with the area marked according to the report that she got.
Travel Plans and Tavern Visit
00:36:14
Speaker
I'd recommend sticking to the coastline. I know that's not the most direct path, but... the deeper you get into the jungle, the more likely you ought to be attacked. So, and you all, you all see if you all, well, I'll see if you all do that. I won't, I won't, I won't give it away. i won't spoil that.
00:36:33
Speaker
so But it it it is near the southern tip of the Khabaran Peninsula. No, hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Val, you're not on anything else right now. Don't be poking around.
00:36:45
Speaker
It is. yeah but i I see Duskwing Clanhole on the map. if That's but i mean, I I know what else is out here, but I don't think that's but that's not Zoriat related. So yeah.
00:37:01
Speaker
Yeah. So anything else you all need from me? Do we have accommodation? Oh yes, you're more than happy, ah more than welcome. happy You are more than happy to stay in our bed. substantially less than happy, as you will find. Here in the guild hall. So you're more than welcome to stay there.
00:37:20
Speaker
In the guild hall, not the tavern? No. we have We have barracks here. Members of guild. Okay. Okay, thank you. Oh, dear. you're more than welcome to go over the tab.
00:37:32
Speaker
And while you are in town, I can provide you all. And she looks in her ledger and makes supple notes and pulls open a drawer, pulls out a key, unlocks a drawer on her desk. And then you hear some metal clinking and a small coin purse. It's like, this should be enough to make sure you that you are fed and suitably drunk. If that's how you like to go out to the jungle before it's going to watch out.
00:37:58
Speaker
Thank you. Great. Of course. Well, good luck out there. I would obviously recommend waiting until morning. I'll be working through the night. I won't be able to see you off. But traveling through the jungle is a dangerous proposition.
00:38:12
Speaker
Okay. Well. Did we get, did I just miss, or do we know the geography well enough, that how far this journey will be to get down to the area that we're headed to?
00:38:28
Speaker
You're looking at probably a two and a half day track to get. Okay. Being as it's directly through jungle, is there any sense in trying to find a boat to take us along the coast?
00:38:41
Speaker
Yeah, I was about to say, you could hire a ship if somebody's willing to take you into that region. Also, that two and a half days was following the coastline. You could shave probably half, two or three quarters day off by just going straight through the jungle.
00:38:54
Speaker
I mean, straight through the jungle probably not faster. yeah Yeah. It depends on how those D12s go. You all could just associate passage on a ship.
00:39:04
Speaker
And I mean, you all have icon points if you want to say that there is somebody on a ship that you know that would be more amenable to giving you a ride. Fair enough. What was my icon next?
00:39:17
Speaker
Platinum Concord. Platinum Concord again. That's right. Ladyville with a twist. Is this the sort of place someone from the Platinum Concord? I mean, I know that you you don't get that rich without doing illegal stuff, but you when you're that rich, you don't tend to be where the illegal stuff is happening.
00:39:31
Speaker
Well, mean, this is a button big dragon shard mining is right. Right. It's like dragon shard prospecting would be the big thing here. Yeah. Yeah. But there would also be like ancient artifacts, tombs, ruins, stuff like that from like all the different civilizations that led here before which the Platinum Concord also trades it.
00:39:48
Speaker
So. Right. And it might not be that there is a member of the Platinum Concord, but rather a smuggler that works for the Platinum Concord that Cass has some connection to. So, or your friend could be here again and it could be a reoccurring care.
00:40:00
Speaker
Oh, she's busy. Didn't know you knew her schedule. But I believe if I roll well enough, I dictate her schedule. And she's, Abra's busy. Wait, that's not Abra. That's the, it doesn't matter. What were you saying?
00:40:18
Speaker
I was about to ask you all what you're doing next. Are you going to bed? Are you going to the tavern to get food? What, what's the plan? Yeah. Gotta go pick a fight somewhere. the The world is your oyster.
00:40:29
Speaker
I'm leaning toward food. I would like to get food. Yeah, I'm all fighted out for right now. Okay.
00:40:37
Speaker
Well, the Nyx isn't going to bed. So, I caught a nap on the boat. You were here for that part. ah Kaz laid down for a couple hours. It's understandable.
00:40:49
Speaker
So you all head the taver which is on the waterfront side of the town. You all enter.
00:41:01
Speaker
It's a fairly warm feeling room. You get a sense that there is a pretty strong sense of community here. There are a lot of people doing dangerous stuff.
00:41:12
Speaker
And so they, they enjoy each other's company when there is some downtime. The,
00:41:19
Speaker
As you walk in. Yep, batwing doors, like saloon doors. Of course. Yes, yes. One of the windows is completely shattered from a fight, presumably earlier today. Obviously. Obviously.
00:41:32
Speaker
But you see... Old-timey piano. Yes. With a half-orc playing the keys as you all walk in. And you hear a voice from behind the bar say, Welcome to the Brina Tavern.
00:41:46
Speaker
ah How can i help you all? ah And you see Brina. Is that what the word is? The Briny. The Briny Lantern. Yeah.
00:41:56
Speaker
Briny Lantern. And you see a halfling woman behind the bar with silver streaked auburn hair. And you see a fairly prominent um mark of, why is this word?
00:42:11
Speaker
Go on to hospitality. Hospitality. Thank you. Mark of hospitality. And she also has an eye patch. Obviously. Yeah. um And. says, Laura, welcome to sit at the bar or there are tables available. If you want to sit yourselves. I will sit at the first open seating.
00:42:28
Speaker
and Whichever is the most accessible. There is a table. Table. Sure. Yeah. Table. All right. Harpoon will be over there. Just Jiffy to get your order. Harpoon. It's gotta be a war forged. It's not. We're asking how he got that nickname. he yeah Yeah, obviously. Yeah.
00:42:46
Speaker
Unless they come out with a harpoon stuck through them. I'll figure it out. Yeah, it's an animate, it's an intelligent undead, and it's just the harpoon was too hard to get out. Oh, I see.
00:42:57
Speaker
You tragically see a non-warforge table. It's a human man with a peg leg and a nasty scar across his forehead. Yeah, we don't to ask.
00:43:08
Speaker
I think we got our answer. Got it, got it. Don't want to know if I'm wrong. Welcome in. Is this your first time dining at the Briny Lantern? And it's clear that he is struggling to follow the script.
00:43:23
Speaker
But he's having to think through. Selene is going to ask the specials and he's going to pass out. But I am going to ask the specials. Yes, it's our first time. And you you hear like a very faint sigh of crap.
00:43:38
Speaker
Would you all lack a tour of the menu? Yes. Yes, please. All right. Take your time. We we have... i Just let the man hand them to us.
00:43:49
Speaker
Go about his business.
00:43:53
Speaker
Does Nick say that out loud? Nick says that in ah in an undertone, but yes. He nods to us. Avrana feels that selling the menu verbally enhances the experience.
00:44:06
Speaker
but stop So we have very sorrow well but we have our normal house drinks, the adders bite, the storm wake whiskey, the dockside grog, the pearl divers delight.
00:44:24
Speaker
And then we also have our sea kiss chowder. our fisherman's hand pies, our lantern loaf and pickle board, our harbor fry, our salt roasted mutton, and then we also have sea salt toffee squares, dockside plum pudding, and a Sharn style citrus tart.
00:44:52
Speaker
Did he say fisherman's hand pie? Yes. I'm concerned that there's too many options for the size of establishment. What do you suppose is fried in the harbor fry?
00:45:03
Speaker
Fish, I assume. One would. also i need Also, I need to know that an outer bite is just a snake bite, right? Yes. Okay. hey The harbor fry fried river shrimp.
00:45:18
Speaker
Uh... then would you also like to know the seasonal specials that we have, right? The enhanced experience is just getting hungrier as food makes its way through the mix. That's the experience that the boss once enhanced.
00:45:33
Speaker
The full experience. gra Our late autumnal options are the pumpkin kelp bisque, the harvest tide pie, a maple roasted river trout, and the rust leaf cider.
00:45:49
Speaker
And then our winter options are the the Frost Wake Chowder, the Dockside Hot Pot, a deep, deep crab in karnahi sala great and and a fresh wine toddy. Between the hot tide? I'm sitting kelp. Pumpkin kelp is just like, nope.
00:46:07
Speaker
I can't do this anymore. don't like it here. Did you say Dockside Tide Pod? so Dockside. Tide Pod. Let's... da but which Snakebite sounds good.
00:46:20
Speaker
Would you lack some time to think about your orders or did the tour of the menu entouch your taste buds already? The tour of the menu was wonderful.
00:46:30
Speaker
If you all talk, thank you. going to lot harder. Says every listener to our podcast. With some feedback, the menu is far too long. As I'm sure you've you've said, I've forgotten half the time. It's his job.
00:46:46
Speaker
I'm giving the feedback to make his job easier. Any feedback is appreciated. It's about the experience. I will do the whiskey and the maple salmon.
00:46:59
Speaker
I believe those were on the list. Also, you know, he is not writing anything down and he is looking very thoughtfully trying to like... Can I rip a page out of my...
00:47:14
Speaker
and you know No, no. At the... Just look at it before you could enter the back. And you like discreetly taste a piece of cake. Amazing. I'll have the mutton.
00:47:27
Speaker
Any things to drink with that, ma'am? Nick shudders of being called ma'am. I'm still thinking about it I'll get something from the bar if I decide to. Very good. I'll have... sir I'll have the harbor fry and some water.
00:47:42
Speaker
Would you like to hear the options from our children? Are you kidding me right now? ah Yes, he would. He would. yeah you you You asked me this after I have ordered?
00:47:57
Speaker
I forgot. I'm very sorry. Harpoon! Harpoon! There's a non-zero chance I'm taller than Harpoon. But yeah. The fair that we feature for our little lanterns. The idea there are children in this place.
00:48:12
Speaker
Mini fisherman's pie. The dockside noodles. Butter noodles? Yes. are Harbor catch fingers.
00:48:23
Speaker
really The salt sweet corn and cakes. Oh. That's what's left over from the fisherman's hand. po but What was the last thing there? The sailor's mac and cheese.
00:48:36
Speaker
Oh. We also do help have the kelp candy twist as a sweet. Oh, man. Does it come with a paper pirate's hat? like
00:48:45
Speaker
Yes. I really want... Can I make... I have no... Nothing that I have would be relevant to this. I would like to make it what would amount to an insight check. I want to know if this guy used to own this bar before whatever her name is Galanda showed up.
00:49:01
Speaker
Okay. so Give me a wisdom base check. fourteen 14. I got nothing to add. Yeah, you're not getting that vibe. It's good. Yeah. Yeah.
00:49:15
Speaker
ah So young sir, would you like to fare on the Little Lantern's menu or go with something from Grownup's Fair? I'll stick with the Harbor Fry. Thank you.
00:49:28
Speaker
Anything to drink? Water is great. And if I... Fresh, please. And... I saw that one coming.
00:49:43
Speaker
And if I could try the... Or brackish, I guess. We could do it. yeah Gosh. Gotta get lights up. The tart. The the the tart for dessert. The Brillish-inspired tart, please.
00:49:55
Speaker
Yes, very good. Can I have that mac and cheese as a side? I also was going to add the mac and cheese. Is there an upcharge for adults? Yes, you can. I'll put in two orders of the sailors mac and cheese as well.
00:50:10
Speaker
I think that's what I want for my meal. Three orders of sailors. It is a very small portion, man. Just a warning. Can I also get the toffee? Yes. Are you sure you read the children's menu to the right party member? All right.
00:50:27
Speaker
So I have a three orders of mac and cheese, the mutton, the whiskey. Who ordered the mutton? Nix.
00:50:42
Speaker
Nostate. The maple river roast trout roast river trout. I thought it was salmon. Is it trout or is it salmon?
00:50:54
Speaker
the The Maple Roast River trout, ma'am. Okay, I'll get trout. ah Sir. I respond to anything. and That's fair. The Harbor Fry.
00:51:04

00:51:11
Speaker
And a fresh water. Anything to drink for you, ma'am? I'll take a water. Fresh, please. All right. Two fresh waters. I will be back with your order in a jiffy.
00:51:25
Speaker
Enjoy your stay at the Briny Lantern. Thank you. Thank you. Harpring turns and you hear the pounding his peg leg as he walks away dejectedly.
00:51:37
Speaker
That is the most. Yeah, that's the hardest I've ever seen anyone work at anything, guys. ah That poor man. Wait, really? but No, not really. I'm speaking hyperbolically for humorous effect.
00:51:52
Speaker
We've met, Nix. butten I wouldn't put it past you, though. You did reappear, so you're missing a good chunk of time of experience.
00:52:04
Speaker
I've also died several times. Literally, most of the stuff we do is harder than what that guy just did. I'm just saying. Dying? That's hard. No kidding.
00:52:16
Speaker
Speaking of that, how are you doing? In what regard? My head hurts. You... Still, yeah. Oh, from what I... Yeah. You killed several people.
00:52:28
Speaker
They were... Okay. I didn't... To say I didn't mean to is obviously disingenuous. But I didn't actively intend to kill all of them. I just was trying to get things to stop.
00:52:44
Speaker
And... I don't know how to say this without... like No, I know how to say this. I don't know how... I can't further explain what I'm about to say, but when I needed the it to be over, i kind of decided that they didn't... Nothing more needed to be told about those men.
00:53:11
Speaker
Does that make sense? And then they all stopped moving. And they were going to kill... They tried to kill me. And they were trying to kill Selena. And... So I don't feel bad about it.
00:53:25
Speaker
But I didn't intentionally kill them this time. i mean, I've shot magic at people intending to hurt them. You know? Like, I know that that's a consequence of what we do. Most of the time that we've had to do it, it's been...
00:53:43
Speaker
Undead or... Yeah....monsters or that sort of thing. They tried to... not asking you to be miserable, but... I know. They tried to knock me out of the sky.
00:53:54
Speaker
Yes. And that felt monstrous enough at the time. Fair enough. we monstrous enough to want to end their story, but not kill them.
00:54:06
Speaker
I don't have a lot of control. in an and we fight that fight 600 times, the other 500, I may have blasted something out of my fingertips and and shot a hole through them you know That's just how it happened this time.
00:54:19
Speaker
I can only aim it and see what happens a lot of the time. you know But I knew what I was aiming it at when I did it. You know, Nix, we had this talk. It's going to get ugly and I need to be ready for it.
00:54:33
Speaker
I'm not asking you to feel bad about it. I i don't. I don't. And I appreciate it. It means a lot that you asked. And I think that's, I'm not super pumped with how comfortable I am with it, but I know that that's where I need to be. And so I'm not questioning it too much right now. Maybe when we're home and I'm back is somewhere familiar, I might break down. I suppose we'll see.
00:54:59
Speaker
But for now, you if I didn't do it, either one of you guys would have, or they would have done it to one of us. And it is what it is.
00:55:11
Speaker
And I think that's where I've got to place myself for right now.
00:55:17
Speaker
Very well. Nick's gets up, goes to the bar, and orders an
Reflections and Tavern Atmosphere
00:55:20
Speaker
Adderbite. Yep. Kaz, the only thing I will say as a magic user, the moment you direct any sort of emotion or energy towards something else, you have to accept that you are likely going to kill it.
00:55:36
Speaker
Especially if you don't have control. I knew that. No, I knew that.
00:55:42
Speaker
was saying I didn't... But you wanted to end their story, but you weren't intending to kill them. No, that's that's not that that's not how I meant it. I just, when it happened, the fact that they died when I hit them and not somebody else does not mean I wasn't intending, ah whether or not I was intending to kill them. I'm just the one that did the last hit.
00:56:03
Speaker
We've all done a lot of things where we've, I mean, you know what I mean? Like, it wasn't that I was like, I'm going to kill them now. It was just that I gotta hurt them too. And I'm the one that did the last one.
00:56:14
Speaker
That's all I meant. And the way that it manifested itself this time was really big and really weird. And it was scary. But I'm trying to... um i don't know what I'm trying to do.
00:56:30
Speaker
You'll control it. That's okay. Scale of it. Stares for a second at that. If it makes you feel better, we already have confirmation that you will control it.
00:56:42
Speaker
was You have confirmation that some guy did. I have confirmation that you will. Oh, what? I can't remember we've talked about that.
00:56:53
Speaker
That Kaz and... but I thought outside of the conversation, conversation i I thought we most of the time we all experienced. Oh, well. Pine trees.
00:57:04
Speaker
I didn't see the things that you guys saw of older me. I've seen the visions that I left for myself. Like when you open when I opened the box and stuff. But the things you saw of like older Kaz...
00:57:17
Speaker
when I was shifting, right? I didn't see that stuff because I was experiencing it. Well, i've I've mentioned the pine trees, but imagine what the pine tree is for. So. Don't worry about it. You'll be fine.
00:57:29
Speaker
You'll be good. Nix comes back with her drink. Sits down. Oh, you went to the bar? Yeah. Harpoon approaches with a large tray.
00:57:40
Speaker
Here is your fair, noble sailors. And he just sets down. It's a huge tray of macaroni. Just set the bowl out.
00:57:51
Speaker
Three portions of macaroni. And he hands out everyone's food and then hands Nick's Valk and Selina paper sailor hats. Oh. the ah Okay.
00:58:04
Speaker
You ordered the sailor's mac and cheese. Thank you. you are most welcome does the mac and cheese look really good yeah it's it's baked mac and cheese breadcrumbs on top like this harfu is it too late to one one more mac don't even worry about the hat i don't think nick i'll take nix's i don't think she wants it Open the back.
00:58:27
Speaker
Beep. I return shortly. Nick's hands you the paper fire hat. Yeah. He stops as he gets a step away and then like his head drops slightly and turns back. The the one thing that did not get set out is the toffee and the tart.
00:58:42
Speaker
Forgive me. I failed to ask... when I was out here before, would you prefer your dessert served with the rest of your meal or brought at the end of your dining experience?
00:58:56
Speaker
And you get the sense, no check necessarily. He was refermance for not having that. It's okay. It can come out later. Would you like your tart later as well? Yeah, no, I'm with her. Yeah. Very good.
00:59:08
Speaker
I'm looking around for a customer satisfaction survey that I could really big up my boy Harpoon. How could I have to tip this guy for real? but since This is rough. I mean, usually in the establishments that this is trying to mimic, gratuity is already added on.
00:59:25
Speaker
Parties of eight or more. The one thing Cass does know is elite dining BS. Nix is eating. Yeah. Same. Nick, Nick, as you are chewing on your second bite, Harpin returns to the table.
00:59:41
Speaker
Is everything to your liking? just whole way Gotta do that two bite check in. It's must do. Excellent. It's good. Great. I will, I will let the ah chef.
00:59:54
Speaker
Was he like watching us from the doorway? Yeah. I mean, like like, yes, he literally was watching us from like five feet away and then waited until you all took two bites your food and then walked back over. Does he have a bunch like pins on his tunic? ends.
01:00:12
Speaker
No, I probably shouldn't describe this. ah Nix, you can immediately clock like he is he's got like ah officers like ah designations on his jacket.
01:00:23
Speaker
ah You all can probably tell that, but Nix would know what they mean. he He served in the Tyron Navy. Oh, it's real. It's not it's not a work uniform. Yeah.
01:00:35
Speaker
It's harpoon. Yeah. He's got a shark and a penguin. I wasn't doubting that he was a real sailor. just assumed that he had some sort of work uniform on for this cheesy establishment here.
01:00:54
Speaker
Okay. And Harpoon walks away. Okay. It's a great food. Except eating and drinking. i highlight I like the mac and cheese. it is It is very good mac and cheese.
