Speaker
Harris, what? You reach out to Aaron to... fine. Tell her to take this job and... Harris walks in with an entirely different energy for some reason. Harris, what? I'm mad at everyone! Why? I don't know! I've just sensed things! like The great cosmic weight... fell on my toe.
00:01:13
Speaker
Hello. Hi, Eris. How are you doing? I don't know. I'll have to go to a city council meeting. Dreadful. I have to buy a new outfit. Right, so- If you want one, I mean- What? I can have that arranged if you don't want to go shopping. Wait. Hold on. It's not what I came here for, boy. Are you telling me there's a version of this where someone just- what I tell someone is exactly what I want and they just bring it to me? instead of having to go to a shop and have some tart sneer at my ideas. Yeah. They're called shoppers. You can hire them. Yeah. Sana lied to me. There are some people that enjoy the act of shopping. And so the idea of having somebody do it for them is takes all the joy of the experience out. And so that might be why Sana wanted to go shopping with you. So I should tell Sana to do it for me and then she can have the joy and I don't have to have the experience. i mean Potentially or she might have wanted to go shopping with you specifically and also for some people be like a bonding thing but you could try you could ask her is that you said that's not why you're here and I would love to know why. Right yeah I guess I'm here to quit.
00:02:27
Speaker
oh oh right we kind of touched on that yeah you yeah i just i don't like being a criminal anymore i it's not like i didn't like it was okay for a while but i was never really comfortable with how many people got killed doing the things we're trying to make that better Yeah, but you could make up a number Aaron has no idea how got we killed 700,000 people but I mean I killed a lot of people and not all of them it was probably necessary and did a lot of damage and caused lots of unnecessary harm just Randomly as a result of things that we did like we've had at least three high-speed aerial chases through the city and
00:03:13
Speaker
And at least on a couple of occasions I've just entirely knocked the power out of a ship and sent it plummeting to the ground. And I'll wake up in the night wondering what happened between there and the ground. I think that's bad. And also, I kind of have the impression that like, I mean, you weren't here for all of the Norse and Milhach stuff, but I kind of have the impression that get to a place where I think that I can just sort of do whatever I want and that might be bad.
00:03:49
Speaker
For the people around me. Yeah, I get that I don't want to get there So I want to stop before I get there also other people constructing these and she holds up the Fletcher and it's really dangerous and now other people make and it's just I'm wondering like what else that I've used in the commission of various crimes is someone now copying and using a for what I was going to say for nefarious purposes if that differentiated it from the things that I've been using it for. But I guess my reasons have not been on nefarious.
00:04:26
Speaker
Yeah, so I sort of carry all that around and don't usually say it to people, but that's why. Alright, that sounds like a fair reason to want to yeah have a change of profession. I like making things and I think I have an opportunity to just make things until I don't want to anymore, which seems
Clan Dynamics and Highwall Conflict Resolution
00:04:44
Speaker
unlikely. So I guess more likely I just make things until I do the wrong thing and die in a fiery explosion. yeah all right no i mean i'm obviously you did a lot for me yeah did everything for me and so there's no real you can be out yeah and no ill will and if you ever need anything obviously you're not a Boromar but you'll always be a Boromar in a way
00:05:08
Speaker
Right, that really makes what I'm about to say kind of sound ungracious. I would really love for the clan not to like get its fingers in highwall and start getting- kiten have not talked to Harb lately, have you? What? Yeah, I talked to Harb most days. so You should go have a conversation with your friend about High Wall specifically. Have we done that classic comedic thing where we come and ask you? It was here 45 minutes ago. It is really a comedy of errors. You're not going to want to know who was here before that. You're doing things. Making moves.
00:05:43
Speaker
i I just feel like there's a chance the the people there it's been really bad and I like I fought for a long time that I was like had it all the worst but and then I went there and it was way worse and just I know Satan wanted to take the clown in a different direction and maybe that's what you're gonna do but I just would like Highwall to not have to be a piece on anyone's game board Well, and that to be fair isn't part of Hobb's propositions. No good. I was gonna have to hurt him. And that's not all you need to do. You can drive. I've made that very hard. Hobb had an interesting business proposition, a legitimate one. Go talk to him about how much Boromar is allowed to operate with an audience. I just get to say? No, that's why. Go talk to him. Have a conversation. And then you all get back to me.
00:06:33
Speaker
Yeah. Because part of Hobb's takeaway was to go talk to the people of Highwall, so I imagine this conversation was gonna happen soon enough. Oh, yeah, okay. And then I was also hoping I would leave with some money. Because I don't... I do almost all my work for free. Sure. And I think I'm gonna have to start paying taxes. Because... Are you sure you want to go legit? Because that's one of the nice things. In an attempt to save Highwall from Callaway, I may have accidentally bureaucratized myself. Alright. Oh no, I'm pure awkward, by the way. How does thousand gold sound as a party game? Yeah, sure. That's good. No one that I would negotiate, but I feel like probably, I don't know. It's all. Yeah, that's great. Thank you. All right. I still, you know, if you need and insane things built that won't be used for crime, still very good at that and available as I am now unemployed.
00:07:29
Speaker
All right. ah self-emp I guess I'm self-employed. Do I work for Olive? Figure that out. Anyway, I'm talking more than you need me to. So I'm gonna this is just i'm gonna take this and go. All right. Good luck. Place looks great.
City Council Meeting and New Opportunities
00:07:44
Speaker
New chairs. Awesome. All right. Trevor, let me ask you this regarding, like, are you are you just out on the, are you going to talk to the rest of the party before you dip out of town or is Raynard just like on the... He's ghosting us. Not completely. talk to milo Yeah, I'd assume Milo and I would meet up at some point. It would be very awkward. Thought you died! We had a funeral! Lovely. Well, my plan was to... I guess it would be better to talk to people. I was gonna have Arthur deliver some letters. But just a handful of people. Okay, who is Arthur delivering letters to?
00:08:17
Speaker
Well, just Milo, Hob, and Eris. But then when I say Milo, I'm just going to be like, can I get that letter back? Arthur has very small hands. He's a cat. Were you going to send Arthur like in in a month when you go off to, are you are you going to meet up with Cassie? And is that the yeah the plan? Okay. So are you going to time it to where it's like after you're gone? I guess if it's a month, I can talk to them in person. It is a month. Yeah, I figured it would be conveniently time for tomorrow. No, it really disappears fakes his death and then realizes he has a month Just envisioning the John Ralfeo funeral scene Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious. Raynard? Raynard and Arthur just sprinting through a cemetery. This guy's self! No, it's brand new. It's like a hologram. Your face just looks like it's melting. It feels like a tear growing. It's shrinking. We have another day before the Charn city council meeting like the rest of the quote unquote day. So the other thing I since you that I the other loose in the heiress probably at what some point wants to deal with his Harbin. Okay. Well and and she's not saying goodbye to anybody but often there's a thing with all of them.
00:09:29
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Like, Hob's not saying goodbyes. Yeah, I know. He assumes there'll be time to talk to Kathy. At some point, I was like, campaign-wise, some closure with Harbin, but it does not have to be. That's the important thing, Jeff. Nobody will know when Hob has that unless it happens in this episode. But, okay, so you want to go talk to Harbin? Or do you want to wait until post-council stuff? me Post council anybody got anything they wanted feel like she goes before the council She's gonna be tempted to try and see if Harbin has influence over anyone on the council and then she'll feel gross That's right. I assume I've gone into the for sales as a matter of routine. Okay, I mean happy to play it out there. Obviously. It's all sad I'm not feeling great. but Yeah
00:10:08
Speaker
It's you and I have to talk we have to talk and I mean often there's a business person in high walls now Yeah, so yeah yeah, you know what? I'll just I'll go to the for sales all the areas Don't go to the for sales and I will say hey We did the last one of soaring spirits in the sense in the the spirit of fairness if you like to gather some other people I have a proposition You know what let me talk to you first he says All right, I'll be there and soon when we get there open us on our there. Yeah. All right. I would like to begin by saying nothing terrible has happened again. Have a seat for a second. I want to talk to you guys. Actually, sorry, open is there. Son is saa has left. Yeah, it makes sense. Okay. I want to stop doing crime too. Did you quit? Kind of. I told her I would no longer be doing the job I was doing. Yeah, that's what I did. I made it right. Okay. So I made a proposition to her though.
00:10:58
Speaker
I'm going to stop the crime and maybe also stop some crime. I have gotten Eren to agree to a Boromar opt-in security force to keep businesses and homes safe in some of the neighborhoods in Lower Memphis. We will be operating legitimately as a protective service from people that are from us and I would like ah she has agreed to offer a pro bono service to high walls if you would have us if you think they would have us. I understand that high walls will be fairly well protected because you live here and your house is a bomb but
00:11:40
Speaker
Yeah, I was gonna start work on a second egric. And also your small army of egrics. So if you don't want it you very ah if you don't want it, you don't want it, and that's fine, but I've gotten her to agree to have it here if that's something that you think the neighborhood would like. well If not, then no. I mean, I don't want it, but I feel like I should try to be more consistent in how I apply things and that this, just because this is a thing that people might want that I don't want, doesn't mean I shouldn't still
00:12:15
Speaker
Ask them I owe to be clear I am the under boss for lack of a better term of this organization So I would be chosen I would be choosing Everyone who works in high walls and you could be consulting on that right if that helps a little You're gonna say no and everybody aren't chairs. That'd be a good idea. Yeah, not a good idea. i might have exacting standards i will have exacting standards oh also another question can i live here can i move here to high walls is that okay i don't want to be yeah of course it is okay then i will also have exacting standards because i will also live here yeah yeah how long is this after milo's been there this is probably like
00:12:55
Speaker
late afternoon, early evening- So Milo would be gone. Yeah, Milo would be gone. Okay. Just making sure Milo wasn't sitting there when they just walked in. Yeah. Right, but like, I mean, if you live here, and I live here, and the egrix live here, And, and, oh my god, I forgot the hobgoblin again. Durga, thank you. Durga is here, and he's old, but he can fight. Oh yeah, he's awesome. Olive is here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, she's got that thing on her back. She's got that dope mech! I don't know why, I just feel really uncomfortable about it. He has a name, and his name is Cinder. And he has a growing personality every day.
00:13:29
Speaker
Yep. That's why I'm uncomfortable with it. I was about to say I don't know why I feel so uncomfortable. Nope, nope, nope. I've just remembered why I feel so uncomfortable with it. Yeah, Tasha's been boring in personality list the whole time and we like it that way. It's also opted if they say- The same thing. If they say no, then it's- Tasha's not connected to my mind. Man, I get it. Okay, I've got it the whole time. Every time you bring it up, I get it, Aerith. Okay. People should be able to choose. People should be able to choose. That's what, that's what it is. People should be able to choose. That's why I didn't. Yeah. Okay. Yes. Should be able to choose. Then we will give them the opportunity to choose. We haven't worked out logistics. My assumption is enough people have to opt in, opt in to make it worth their while in other neighborhoods. Right. Yeah. This one that's free, it'll probably be if a percentage don't want it, it'll just come down to you, me and the egrix. Is that what we're calling them?
00:14:22
Speaker
That's just a working name. I don't know. I don't know. It kind of takes the individuality out of Egric and sometimes I have a thing where I want to be alert. I defy you to point to the individuality in Egric. Well, I was thinking of letting Tasha pilot Egric sometimes. That's pretty dope. Right, because she can fly, but... Right. Then she could also- She can't stomp. Yeah, she could stomp and tear things apart and lift heavy things, which would be more, I hope, more of what she would do. All right. Let's give Yumi and the egrix a trial run before we go bring in any Boromar, any further Boromar influence to Highwall. Is that what you would like? Yes. You got it, friend. Thank you, Chib. Milo, does Milo return home after talking with Sana? Yeah. Your mom is taking a nap in her room, and there is a knock at your door.
00:15:06
Speaker
Well, looks to little people. You see the lower torso of a humanoid fan. and You see a big people. Surely the people is like a periscope where like there's a series of reflections. You see Kath. Well, opens the door. Oh, well, hello, Kath. There is a playful, important adjective, playful punch to Milo's shoulder. Not in a like jokey, but just like a not trying to hurt you. He's like, where are you going? Come in. Come on in. What happened to Cass? Let's have a seat. She's happy again. What happened? She's not happy. She's just like, yeah, but she walks in. Chummy. Chummy again. I'm suspicious. We have, we have, you know, your size chairs, right? Put one up and Milo runs over to the counter, brings over a plate of cookies. Would you like something to drink? No. Where are you going? There was a great sense of finality to your
00:15:59
Speaker
Very touching gesture yesterday, but once you left, and I got had a chance to think about it. Yes, well, do you remember Cassius? None of us remember Cassius. Who am I? The boxer? Cassian. Cassian. Do you have me, Cassian? That's what I i don't remember. i think ca did no I don't think we involved them in that job. Who? There was a person named Cassian who... ...gathered that much. ...came to visit. And we helped him with a particular mission he had to complete while he was here. But, and I know you're going to find this very hard to believe, but he's actually from another version of where we live, and... ...allegedly. He's friends with other heiress. Shut up. There is no other heiress.
00:16:46
Speaker
Kylie speaks to me and that that through her anyway it's long and complicated my magic comes from a conduit from when she communicated with me and this Kylie is also from the other place and we have a very deep connection. It's like I've lost my Kylie but it's like this Kylie is my Kylie and I know it sounds insane but I have the opportunity to go and be with her. I'm going to take that opportunity to try to find some semblance of happiness. I've thought a long time about it. I know she wants me to come and I just need to get out of the clan and I'm tired of all of the killing and
00:17:34
Speaker
things we've had to do the things that that you've had to do and I just, I want to be happy again and this seems like my chance and I'm going to take it. I wish that things could go back the way they were, but that's impossible. It's even more impossible if you leave. This is very true. I have a very important question, and I would love it if you answered me, honestly and openly, this Cassian. What do you have to do to make this journey? All I know is I have to meet him at a particular place in a month's time.
00:18:10
Speaker
Not entirely sure what the journey involves, but apparently he's made more than one of these types of journeys. To me, as an outsider, I don't think you're crazy, Milo. I think that someone has come into your life at a point where you're at your lowest and offered you everything you could possibly want, which to me has a lot of alarm bells going off. and other battles. Yes, I know. I would learn a lesson it a little late. Yes, I know. I've considered that as well, but I'm not sure at this point that I care. If there's a shot at happiness, I'm going to take it. Okay. I try to put on the happy face, the trying to just be myself like I used to be, and it's just not there anymore. This magic that I do is
00:18:59
Speaker
Incredibly dangerous. I feel like I have no control over it half the time, and I wish that I just ever have it to begin with. Alright, well... Seems like we've all chosen our path. We all need to find our way. Sounds that way. I genuinely hope that this Cassian person isn't trying to kidnap, kill, or sacrifice you to something. Yes, I do hope that too, but I just... I do have a good feeling about it, but it's just a feeling. Where are you supposed to meet this Cassian person? Milo has to pull out the card. I don't remember what it said or where it said. It's the second start of the ride. It's somewhere like the country side of Breeland, like it's well outside the distance. It's the middle of a cow pasture somewhere. It's outside of Sean. It's the estate of Arsal to Thard. I mean, that guy was an Arsal. I could come with you to make sure it's on the up and up.
00:19:53
Speaker
Something goes wrong, be there to help. Cassian didn't say to him, not like... No? No, he made no... The whole thing is a secretive thing, I mean... No, Cassian trusted in our discretion. yeah That's more fool... Yeah. Oh, are you saying to go with you? Yeah. Yeah! So, you know, I'm thinking of time. Do it. I'm trying to remember people seeing things maybe they're not supposed to see. Do it. Milo probably wouldn't realize that, though, so... Well, Gotham, I would appreciate that. Great. Perhaps you could... I mean, I'm certain that he probably wanted some type of discretion in it. Perhaps you could... maybe we could be there early and...
00:20:37
Speaker
I can find a place to perhaps out of sight. She just kind of stares at you for a second. Yes, I know. You all know the when you're up close, I understand. Just, I'm saying this gravely serious, because even if you go to another version of Eberron, if you don't do this, I will find you and kill you. Come get me when you're ready to leave town. I'll come with you. Very well. You're sounding more like the Cath. The tie. Don't. Yes. it was Don't ruin it, man. Don't ruin it. He said right.
Shopping and Social Interactions
00:21:09
Speaker
Right. Okay, you get Missive from Fellstop and Cyborg. I bet, yeah, they're taking it. We're wrong, guys. It's all gone bad. The owl went crazy. Hotballs disappeared. It's a big bowl now. No, you get noticed that.
00:21:24
Speaker
Yeah. Next morning is Turn City Council. They're going to see your case if you want to come witness. Not bear witness, but witness the proceedings. Eris goes and finds Sana. Okay. After some tracking down, you finally end up at Sana's parents' place and Sana answers the door. Hi. Hi. What's up? I know a lot of things have not gone very well lately and I'll have something that's not nearly as important as all of those things. Well, yeah. I'm going to stick with that. Okay. I have to go to a meeting of the city council tomorrow and I have been told that both of my outfits are insufficient. Okay. I want to wear my jacket, but I need to look like I am not a street urchin or an anarchist. I need to disguise those things about me because important people and owls will see me. Owls can always see you. Yeah. It's tomorrow morning. are you asking to yourself maybe Are you asking me to go shopping?
00:22:22
Speaker
yes is there a place where the person inside isn't going to sneer when i walk in the building yeah yeah yeah there's some other we don't need to go to those type of stores just give me give me a second to grab my you jacket you can step in here okay and sauna kind of rushes to the back of the house leaving eris by herself Eris stands in the entryway because last time she was here, she really made a scene. Yeah. And almost as if I'm Q coming out of like the kitchen yet. Of course. Drawther walks out and sees. How are you doing here? Eris. Hi. Drawther. Just wanted to say that your words did not fall on deaf ears last time and I'll leave it at that. Nope. Cause I don't understand it yet. If you leave it at that, I still won't understand.
00:23:08
Speaker
You had some very strong words for me about it. No, I remember that. I just don't understand what you you you're doing. You're talking around with something. I didn't. I don't know what you mean. I just picked up on the vibe for me that you don't like conversation. So I was just trying to keep it brief. Yeah, I don't. But direct is good. I'm sorry. The way that you dissuaded me from working with Callaway. Oh, i I didn't know that I did. I just yelled at you and left. That was part of it. Yeah. No, I know the way I did it. I didn't know that I actually dissuaded you. yeah Oh, that's good? Yes, that's all I was trying to convey is that any awkwardness or guilt that you might feel about that outburst, while inappropriate given the time, ultimately, it was good. It was a dinner party here as well. Yes. Okay. I'm gonna stop talking to you now. Yeah, okay, I understand that. Not because I want to stop talking, but because it feels like you would love for this conversation.
00:24:07
Speaker
i just don't know what to say because so it to you for you i'm sorry he doesn't seem right because because you just said it was a good thing and then yeah sorry's not necessary just wanted to let you know that what you did was ultimately good so thank you you are welcome oh and i mean he reaches into a little satchel on inside don't tell anyone but I'm still working on now my own if you want the first well not first but a prototype and he hands you a rectangular spell shard with various limited functionality right now but there is a sending stone built in there and you can save various sending stone signatures in it that you can call up on command ah rather than having separate sending stones you don't have to like you've been carrying around a bunch of sending stones you don't just reconfigure the one you've got on the fly
00:24:58
Speaker
No, because then I would lose the configuration that I had previously. Yeah. And you just remember it and you go, you don't have to do that. Cool. I could remember other things instead. Yeah. But it's going to be weird because like, you'll remember the first handful. sending sensing Right. Yeah, but never again. your life Right. Never again. you yeah Why would I ever need to know that? Yeah. Well, I mean, one of them is the secret line to a watch office is radio. So you could be a useful still. You're like mom or something. Oh, I wasn't going to put it in here. Not that one. Not the one. Not the one to the Dark Lanterns. No, no, no, no. Just just not. Also, you got like certain musicians that have their stuff on. Wait, what? Some signatures. You can save them in there and stuff. Wait, really? Yeah. That's the whole thing. Yeah. It sounds dumb. I don't think you and I don't know each other very well. I had never thought of this. Thank you. Yeah. Thank you.
00:25:51
Speaker
Take it for a spin, and if you have any feedback, let me know. Sure. Yeah. Yeah. And Sana walks out with her jacket on. And Eris, this would not be like... the Her eyes and cheeks are a little puffier than when she left the room, but her eyes are a little red. But she comes in and sees Drawther talking. to He's like... Okay, bye. Thank you. And she pats Drawther. And you ready? Yeah, okay. Great, and yeah. Eris, you and Sana, Sana takes you to a, like, nice-ish department store. Sure, not yeah. like yeah not Not a fancy thing. and yeah
00:26:25
Speaker
it's for Eris's lack of social awareness you you can pick up on the vibe because probably this is what about that place over there warm subjects it's a little edgy but they have a hounds of Balkan t-shirt that i want to pick up can paint should have been it seventeen episodes no don't get the sense sauna is like Walking on eggshells and be like I don't want to Disrupt the what whatever is happening here. Yeah, so yeah, she is very amenable to Eris's suggestions And yeah, so why the Sharn city council about two reasons one I'm gonna I'm gonna screw over Calabay and two I've just really always wanted to go to one of the meetings because one of the counselors is a giant owl and I think that's awesome and That is awesome. Is he a druid as an owl or is he a giant owl? No, he's an actual giant owl. It's like one of the actual giant owls of Sean got elected to the council. I mean, where else could you live that that would be true? Yeah. There's a lot of times with cat mayors. I'm not there, I'm not there. Wow.
00:27:27
Speaker
Are they mayors or are they policemen in disguise like Arthur? Right. That's, that's great that, I mean, always hated Callaway, so. Yeah. He's gonna get some kind of comeuppance, but. Right, yeah. So anyway, that's, yeah. I asked the lawyer about both of my outfits and he, I don't know. She. it was She. Oh, it was Misty, yeah, that's right. She, yeah, it was pretty obvious that it was not good. But she specifically said I shouldn't wear the jacket, so I'm gonna wear the jacket. Ricky mistake. Yeah. No, we can, we can, it's a jacket, like. Right. Yeah. Yeah. It's a good jacket. So we'll just need to like, pants and shoes. Yeah. We're going to focus on. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Let's go. Yeah. We do. Yes. You do. Trevor, got anything going on with the green art this evening? point one
00:28:10
Speaker
so Okay. Well, I guess like I screwed the pooch. I thought I'd be leaving tomorrow. I mean, if there's anything that you want to do with the other player characters, or I mean, once we get past the Sharn City Council, we'll start doing bigger time jumps into the future. So if you will wait until that, then that's totally fine. I mean, yeah, I think he's gonna lay low. Okay. I guess. What? I guess I should go on that date. Nessa moon shadow? That's the priority. I mean, it hasn't happened yet. That's true. I would feel bad. No, I'm kidding. Picked up on what? I really want to see whether you get there. I don't know. Am I missing something? Not in an out of character way. Okay.
00:28:51
Speaker
okay obvious um so confused now i'm so worried think through who raar should say goodbye to but immediately yeah Okay, so before we go to the next morning for the Sharon City Council meeting don't Don't you do it, Raimi. Varla. Maybe. More so than Nessa. Geez. It's just a long apology. There wouldn't be that. You know there wouldn't be that. See if you can just get through without criticizing her ideas. I'm sorry I'm not going to be here to help you any longer. Another third person cutaway. Oh. Oh no.
00:29:23
Speaker
Now I dread these. So, I see darkness, and then reality kind of shimmers as Belashear and Callaway step through a ripple. They already had theirs. And Callaway's just like, no one rolled a despair. The despair started the chain of events. I have a very busy morning, if you know. I know, I know, I know. But we have somebody else that we need to pick up before our little merry band. Where are we? We're in the Dreadhold. No. That really, really, really... It's not gonna be. It's not if this is a misdirect. Yeah. Sorry, you were saying? Well, if you're thinking of something that's associated with me, Norse and Milhach, he's not even here yet. Like, no. Milhach lost over and over and over. I'm not interested in people that lost over and over and over and over. That's true. He was really unsuccessful as a villain. Besides, you won't... This person... You won't quite understand, but we'll debrief.
00:30:20
Speaker
and like cast the light spell and this small room lights up and there is a stone figure like crouched down a young woman and Bellashear walks up to the stone and she looks so scared she should have been and Callaway looks like Melissa Myron what about her spoke to the shadow Well, that's the thing with you all. It's also binary, black and white, shadow, light. Like, it's the reason you worship Ash, but... Haven't you done enough to Beric? Unfortunately, she was... A lot of things happen, but if my estimations are correct, then she should remember. We'll just have to find out. And he touches the forehead of the stone figure, and the stone turns to flesh, and initially a whale as this young woman collapses to the ground, and he's like,
00:31:10
Speaker
so okay It's okay. Who are you? Well, my name is Bella Shira. And this is... Still? Still see? Solomon Callaway. Now, what do you remember? I remember her people shouting and... No, I... Something else. I remember an army... Dragons. And he betrayed me. Yes. You gave him everything. And he turned his back on you. Him? His mother? All of them. Wouldn't you like to get back? How? Well, that's the complicated myth, unfortunately. See, I can't promise you him or his little merry band of miscreants, but the powers that be pulling the strings. Those people, we can have some fun. Okay. I know. That was so sweaty. That was physically disgusting. I remember just about to be upset, but... I don't know anything. Yeah. I mean, it's not something that's come up in this campaign.
00:32:09
Speaker
So it's from camping. Okay, so, morning of the Charon City Council meeting. Eris walks in with a very great idea. Once again, in a very sour mood for no reason. If Eris goes, Hob goes. Just cuz. Would you have tried to reach out to either, regarding all of this, or? Eris probably founds finds it strange that she hasn't seen Milo in two days. It's less strange that Reynard just dropped off of the world, but I mean, yeah, Eris probably communicates what's happening on the open channel of their communicators, in case they want to. Would you all like to go?
00:32:46
Speaker
think Milo would sorry real quick Trevor we can retcon that you told Aaron like in a month, okay? like so you you can still get into story point yeah because i'm like awful dang i just wrote myself out on our on our play here right like It's feels so weird doing this on the day that Reynard died well he would say we must go on yeah Do you think you would I don't think you would He would say that about anybody else dying. yeah yes But
Legal Victory and Unsettling Confessions
00:33:12
Speaker
himself. hey fri say something You must grieve for days! And change your clothes or something. then yes let me let and I told her in a month. You have her sackcloth and ashes. yeah I still want Trevor in the finale to campaign. Since Milo has had a little bit of a hand in this council,
00:33:31
Speaker
Yeah, he's curious. He would go. Okay. Eris walks in ticked off because they confiscated her popcorn on the way in. It's true. No food or drinking. Are you going to feed the owl? No! it's so They're a person! He is a- So they're hungry. He is a counselor. You can address him as you're as gentle owls. No one told Hob to dress nice. But he's also still an owl, so if there's a mouse in the chamber, he's gonna be distracted. So you all yeah arrive and see the Sharn City Council sitting in their designated seats. And perching. And perching. You also see Callaway there.
00:34:05
Speaker
With a couple of, like, suits around him, but it seems very evident that Calloway is the one in charge. And you also see Misty and Sat. Misty seems extremely anxious, whereas Sat seems very calm, cool, collected. Got some mysterious bruises. that Also a little bit disheveled, like he hasn't slept much. A familiar look to Aerith. Like, that man hasn't slept in 72 hours. Wrist and a brace for no particular reason. keeping his hands folded over his knuckles so yeah proceed do you all exchange any words before things get started yeah i mean aris probably walks up and says hello cheerfully good <unk> good oh good yeah hello i'm not you i'm talking to the lawyers oh i thought you were talking to them too kind two
00:34:48
Speaker
there wasn't the room We arrived together surely I already said hello to them Misty kind of like wide-eyed like and Sat just kind of chuckles and nods and gives a thumbs up There's starting to wonder about the spectacles. Yeah Well that's pretty rude. He's a blind man. Hang on. I didn't see the perception. So you all see the council proceedings, they call to order, and you notice that there are now seven empty chairs.
00:35:19
Speaker
in the chambers. It was four according to your last conversation with Cold War. Three more. And yeah, I'm not gonna role play the whole... yeah now you Please don't. Please, you will sit here for 45 minutes while I do a ah legal drama. At least tell us what the owl had to say. like well but most of i was The owl was the biggest questioner of whether or not we should just legitimize the neighborhood because why would we other people like that that seems like high walls is very like put upon and maybe we should fix that that's good which I've always said there wise yeah which that definitely kind of Pivots that doesn't like shut that down, but like well, but we're discussing the validity of the contracts. Table that for now. Absolutely want to circle back to that. But by the end of the discussion is... Callaway missing any eyes? Callaway's not missing any eyes. Callaway seems very like he does shoot you all a couple of looks and he seems more agitated than normal.
00:36:21
Speaker
uh because you know normally he's very calm cool collected but he seems very aggravated towards you all. Heiress waves. And just hop chuckles a little like that. Fist on the table like come on man I'm gonna pay for that if one of us pays for that. And then the Ram buses. Oh that's waiting to say goodbye to. They are looking for you so yeah because all of this started with a triumph from Philip I'm not going to do rolls or anything like this is what occurs but essentially Sharon City Council agrees that Callaway's business dealings with businesses in a refugee camp that are not recognized by the Charne City Council cannot be withheld. And so any provisions therein are null and void. And Sat makes a point now, just to be clear, the money that may have already been spent by the individuals that were given the money for the investment.
00:37:11
Speaker
be unreasonable to ask them to return said money, and Shoren City to Council nods like, yes, any any money that was already invested and spent if any of the people that were invested upon still have loose cash, preferably that be returned to the aggrieved, but no, it and it would be unreasonable to ask them to return the money, to which Callaway's legal team is uproarious with that, but Good. And you kind of looking around as things go on, you notice that there's a smattering of people from high walls that are like in the back. Like you see Nessa moon shadow and Garin and Jorlin sitting back there. And they just kind of like, or like as, as each proclamation comes through, we're getting more and more excited about the fact that it's working. So yeah, as trying to the council calls the special emergency meeting adjourn sat and Misty turn around and Misty is like giddy, like it punches sat on the arm.
00:38:07
Speaker
We did it! We did it. And maybe to all of your horrors, you hear Misty in her brook. First case down. And so Sat approaches you all and says, well, it seems like I don't have to worry about Callaway meddling in your affairs and we'll make sure that there's no blowback of any kind. Awesome. And Aeris, your sending stone activates and you hear a voice. What? What are you gonna say? If you need anything fixed, I'm really good at that. And it seems like your office could be improved. Some might call her the fixer. Nope, nope. You hear it in the back, you go, the fixer! just The owls turns confused like 180 degrees like an owl now came. No, that that sounds great. And Missy like, you can't afford to hire someone. It's like, it'll be fine. Have we paid Joe fee yet?
00:39:02
Speaker
And Sat start like starting to do a plaking gesture and Misty's like, no, we do need to discuss that. Awesome. Yes. That'd be great. We will send an invoice. That sounds great. Yeah. That's a bill, right? Right. Yeah. These kids. Okay. And then Eris, you're sending some activates and you hear Cold War's voice. Eris, I just got word. Good news. Oh, yeah. I mean charging account. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Why you heard that really fast? Yeah, and after a conversation yesterday I did a slight pivot because oh no I had a feeling that things were gonna go the way that they went but I didn't want people People that kept the money
00:39:42
Speaker
to feel any kind of love towards Calloway. Yeah. So new documents have emerged showing Calloway committing fraud in the distribution of a trust that was established for Cairn refugees by a family in Cairn and all of the money that was meant to go to those refugees is what Calloway was trying to broker illegally. Wait, is that true? No, I made it all up. Oh. But that's what people will believe. I mean, it's really good that I asked. Yes. Yeah. Because we're still like in the council chambers and he's right over there and I'm definitely armed. All the business owners are notified or being notified in the process that the the Hawkwood family trust. What? Why?
00:40:28
Speaker
What do you mean? I figured it'd be better if that money was coming from a Kyron family. why Why that one? Why that why that one? You did a bit of research and it seemed like a family that would have cared. Why? This is immediately suspicious that- Yeah. What are you asking me, Aris? This is really hard when I can't scowl at you. i Nothing, nevermind. Bye. But Eris gets off the sending stone with Cold War and seems... Leclent? That doesn't seem right. That's not correct. Yeah, no. Put off. Hey, what's going on? We just won. You look... put off. Leclent? No, I wouldn't save Leclent. I wouldn't say whatever you said either. But I wouldn't save Leclent. We're gonna stop talking to Cold War.
00:41:05
Speaker
Good! Wait, we're done with cops? Is he like a cop? Is that what you're doing? Like, here's the thing. Aren't you trying to be a cop? No, no, no, no. Community patrol. Right, but won't you, like, interfere and stop people in... I will do no actions with the authority of the state. I will have no qualified immunity. I will be responsible and accountable for all things that I do. To the criminal organization that we work for? Oh no, to the people. They'll decide if they want us any longer, every time we make an action, and then they will collectively decide if we're a net positive or negative for their neighborhood and can disband us at their will. just Seems like somewhere down the road somebody might be in charge who isn't you, and then... I plan to live forever, Eris, we haven't talked about this. Yeah, man, it's gonna... Is this that blood or vul thing? It's going to corrupt entropy as a natural occurrence of our world, but until it does, we're gonna ride the wave.
00:41:57
Speaker
Okay. yeah There you go, chat. Is that like my wildly reckless experimentation in Artifice? It's kind of the same thing. Like it's probably eventually going to kill me, but for now... Is that going to make you more or less amenable to it? I don't know. Alright, well then let's just say short. I'm just not going to talk to Coldor anymore because he's fingering things out, I think, and I don't like it. Okay. The CIA agent I befriended is figuring things out. Look, Eris doesn't have to like the consequences of her actions.
Fallen's Groundbreaking Event and Protest Management
00:42:22
Speaker
Okay, so at this point we can start doing some time jumps for it since we don't have the looming nature of the Sharn City Council meeting. So i I have something like two weeks into the future unless somebody has something prior to that that they want to have occur. I have nothing that's time real time-pressing.
00:42:41
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, I assume in that interim I would have caught up with Kath, or I mean with Sauna at some point, but I i mean, Hobb's not leaving. There's no great goodbyes to say. Eris has something for Ulfin. Yeah. And Milo has something for Hobb, and for Aeris, and possibly Ragnard. He's got to tell them farewell. Okay, so, but the farewells will come in about a month when you're leaving. Yeah, you're gonna wait in Blindsider with it. Things start to settle down. Two weeks out, you all get a message from Sigil asking you all to come to an event that's happening at Fallen if you all are free and available. Aren't the events that happen in Fallen us getting attacked by monsters?
00:43:24
Speaker
They certainly have been, but I'm going to trust that Sigil's not inviting us to get attacked by monsters. I don't know. Much like myself, Sigil thinks differently from everyone else. And so, I could imagine Sigil inviting us to something not realising that it would result in us being attacked by monsters. We can't. We can hardly blame them for that. No, I wasn't thinking we blame Sigil. I was just thinking what might happen if we go to an event and follow. Look, I'm going. Are you going? Fine. Yes, I'm not. Shall I go? I'm going with weapons. Sure. Duh. Okay, so... I'm going with my legs. I'm going with weapons. We know you, Aerith. I'll be taking my eyeballs. Sorry, Milo.
00:44:00
Speaker
the
00:44:03
Speaker
promise that was again all more organic hateful what i put up with So you all as you approach you see contingency of war fortune sitting around kind of on the edge of fallen ah You also see Aaron Boromar standing there. Lady Briar is there. Lissa Boromar is there and they are standing around and as you all you see kind of signage that is marking like the basically it's a groundbreaking event and you also see spattering of citizens and things like that you also see protesters I was gonna ask if there's a large group of protesters no more no more forged stuff like that and yeah Sigil sees you all it's like oh I'm glad you all decided to come thank you
00:44:49
Speaker
we're starting to clear out Fallen and just wanted you all to be here for the errand thought it would be good for PR to have like a ceremony of sorts and also to show a very happy thing juxtaposed by those people who are mad about a happy thing so i don't know if it'll work you want us to do something about them i mean me personally i'm trying to be less violent but i mean them What if we, I don't know, ready in action? Yeah, I mean, they seem just very agitated like they want to scream about us finally having a home in the city. What about this? It releases a cloud of acidic gas. Would it kill them? I don't know. Eris, I think we can let them yell. I don't like- I'm saying it'd be harder to yell. How do I say this? Any violence acted upon the protesters will be attributed to the warforged they're protesting against. Right, yeah, I forgot people are awful.
00:45:43
Speaker
If I can make it to where we don't have to hear them. Now that's funny. Now that's funny. I do like that. Yeah. i saw it How big a dome can you make? Give me an arcana check. Yes. How can I assist that? Because that's fun. This is just a general utility spell. So it's just one purple difficulty and take a boost because hobb like you could step up and co out corral them closer together kind of thing. big Big scary Goliath. i'm hurting them yeah I have succeeded with three success and four advantage. yeah just this like the The air kind of shimmers slightly as this dome of silence envelops the protesters as they continue to like shout and yell.
00:46:28
Speaker
And what would you like the advantage to be? They know it. Hop starts to do this and then realize realizes that's not good form. Yeah, I mean, I kind of like that they know it and they just finally they just disperse. Okay. They get frustrated. Their fun have been ruined. Yes, but funnily because like you targeted it on one of their signs. So the but they try to move. Very good. And the bubble moves with them. They can't figure out. like They're all pulling out their descending stones and posting about their second amendment rights be or first amendment being saved.
00:47:00
Speaker
The whole other set of problems. There's no relish constitution. now There's just amendments. They've mentioned nothing. So there's no, there's nothing to change. Sure. We'll make a note. So yeah, the protesters dispersed thanks to Milo's spell sensing them and the warforged, like you hear warforged laughing as the, yeah. You also note Milo as you're, as you all are watching them, you see a small cluster of warforged that aren't part of the ceremony that were kind of off. Watching and you see the one at the front like kind of give a like angry like gesture to themselves, you notice they have like braided back roots. It's ash. Yes, it's ash. We're okay. Perhaps they were planning something related to the protesters that now has been thwarted thanks to Milo's.
00:47:49
Speaker
So use our powers for good non-violent means this is this is the message of the Boromar security control We're gonna embarrass your antagonist with Boromar security. I'm just wearing a t-shirt three sizes too small to just says security on the back it Just as bubbles. Why would it say that? as You put a bit of bubble. Oh, there you go. Yeah, try to keep up So
00:48:13
Speaker
so You're listening. I know you're listening. I'm kidding. So yeah, a couple of the larger Warforged, including Hutch, step up to the first like large piece of rubble that's closest to where everything has been stood up and they all get under it and like pick it up symbolically and then they like drop it to where it like smashes and like they dont but throw it off the tower. No way! It's your problem
Personal Goodbyes and New Beginnings
00:48:36
Speaker
now! Yeah, they they break a very large piece of rubble and then others start like moving it away and there's a lot of cheering and grandstanding and Aaron sees you all there and walks up and it's like, oh, pleasure to see you all here. Sid, Julie invited us.
00:48:50
Speaker
Great. Love that. I could see that things are going well. I mean, presumably you all would have had contact in the couple weeks that things have been ramping up. At some point, I did realize I should have put this work. At some point, I do ask her if she found a place for Del Hobb yet. And if not, I think you'd be great at scheduling for our new organization. Yeah, sure. Because she did not know what to do with Del. He's a very, very sweet man. Look, I'll take him. i I'll put him in an office. Let's give them I'll give him a calendar. Yeah, she is Acknowledges that you all are here and it's like it's exciting stuff that's happening. So good to see and walks away So any of the other collected people here that you all would want to talk to you lady Briar grums their hutch The other NASA it's weird now. Eris doesn't have any of the inside office jokes anymore. So it's like
00:49:34
Speaker
Yeah, I guess I'm the only one that still works for Bormar. I can't imagine I'm privy to the crime thing. Wait, did you quit? Have you quit yet? Not formally. I was gonna say that i think think she's still expecting him to work. That's true. ye i tell I think I will tell Lissa, hey, I'm taking Dell off your hands. He's going to go work. work With me, for me, at you. Yeah, I heard about your security service. You can have Dell. The rest of my people stay with me. Yeah, no, I don't think they'd be a great fit for what I'm working on, Lissa. I'm with you. Good. Dope. Have a great evening. The rest of my people stay with me. Dog, not what I came here about. Because she knows they'd come in a heart.
00:50:15
Speaker
I mean, that that is part of the problem. If Dell's going with you, then she's concerned about... I know, I know, I know. Okay, so any anything else in the next like week or so, we're approaching the end of the month? Eris, at some point, goes to Ulfin with a box. So I promised this a while ago, and usually I'm very quick about doing that sort of thing, but then like the world was falling apart, and so... But now I've had time! It's quite my job. but And so... Ta-da! And she opens the box and there is a ah mechanical hand in the box. Thank you. Aeris, how does it work? How doesn't it work? Aeris helps him fit it. I took the measurements from your other hand and I mirrored it. So if you do trigger this thing on the wrist, it will cool really fast. And so whatever, when yeah're when you're passing out drinks, it will make them frosty.
00:51:12
Speaker
Interesting. Yeah. And then this one does the opposite and warms it up. So if you're carrying like hot dishes and things and you you want to keep them warm, there's that. Or if you like moving into cough or something like that, people like. You just stick your finger in their drink. Some people heat their drinks. Right. I don't know. Let me stir that up for you. but that Yeah. But yeah. and And then I went with the, you know, it's some patterning from the old flag on your old ship. And yeah I mean, you should mostly just work like a hand. Thank you. I appreciate the effort. Yeah, you know, I just, it's, I owe you for a lot of things. I'm very proud of you. Okay, thanks. You're welcome. So, uh, it seems like business is doing well. Yeah, it's good. Do you need, do you need anything? I mean, I could eat.
00:51:57
Speaker
Yeah. Um, okay. Take a seat. Yeah. She goes and sits down in her booth and often begins working on dish. Yeah. Hot walks in. He has his radio and his spare, uh, one change of clothes. He goes, I'm moving in. I thought I'd stop by. I was at Sabia's and I was thinking of all the times I had there and I kind of shuddered and I left. Anyway, then he enjoys a meal with Hope and Eris. And he goes and moves into us. Not much larger single room place here. And he mentions to Eris soundproofing. Raynard? I can do that.
00:52:31
Speaker
Why am I supposed to do starting to hit the time where you could start? Oh, we got about a winner fully had a plan to be the like, oh, I'm doing that too. Oh, and mil love says okay. Goodbye. Does Milo know you're doing it too? No. Right now I was not gonna say anything until you heard my note Milo go. Okay. Okay. That's okay for me to say. okay i remember Milo had asked Raynard and Raynard did not answer. Um, so yeah, Raynard, you're at your apartment, and... Oh no, what's gonna happen? A ramp. Oh, we do need to have closer. No, we don't. Not just me alone, no, it's just me alone. Arthur kind of walks, like, Raynard's just sitting around his apartment and Arthur walks up and kind of looks at Raynard, regards you, and reaches out and, like, bats at your nose. Hello? Bats at your nose again.
00:53:20
Speaker
what What do you need? It is time, Renard. You think you're leaving, do you? i Look, you wouldn't you love it to go and and stay at the sales? That's in your nose again. Something in my nose. You can't do it. I will cry. I'll say goodbye to an animal. A fake animal, I will cry. Arthur hops off of the whatever piece of furniture he hopped up on to be next to Raynard and walks into Raynard's bedroom and just waits. Okay, well Raynard follows. Arthur is like whatever kind of like, you know, anachronisms we kind of go back and forth on the show in terms of what, but like Raynard's travel case, whatever he would like to like, Arthur has like gone and sat in it and it's just.
00:54:09
Speaker
It's Arthur, the interdimensional cat. Are you wanting to go with me? Ain't no ruleset cat, can't play basketball. I don't know what to discard as a ticket for one or if you don't count as another thing. Arthur just stares at you. Don't zip it up. Don't make any noise. They'll never know. Arthur kind of like straightens up and then hops out and like walks back into the living room. Well, you had to stay in there. Not yet, but you both figured out. You're fine. Amazing. Outstanding element. jy gal yeah This is how I could talk to my cat at home. You're bringing in your loafers. Okay, so what's next game in terms of month? Something Harbin at some point. I don't know, Eris would wait for Harbin to have some sort of public event yeah and just sort of linger on the edge of it.
00:54:58
Speaker
Yeah, you know, obviously, Nordstrom Millhatch being sent to the Dreadhold would not have been private news. So yeah there's a big like, Millhatch Industries is still strong under the leadership of Harbin Millhatch and advisors. So there's yeah some kind of event that Harbin would be at. Eric just kind of hangs up, stands there, and hangs out on the edge of the periphery of the thing, visible, shifting awkwardly. You hear in your ear, I see you. What? Mill Hatch Industries stuff blows up all the time. Of course we're here. You recognize Cold War's voice. Oh, okay. I was like, all of the voices are Eric. You can't expect me to know. Come on, dude. Don't you still owe me a bunch of things? Yeah, I'm working on it. Right. Okay. I do have a day job, though.
00:55:40
Speaker
Didn't think it would take that long to get Hobb citizenship. Well I mean, that's a clear, like, yeah. Fair. Okay. Just saying. Clear people's criminal records. That's already done. I thought there would be some kind of announcement. To who? The people whose records have been cleared. You asked for it to be done, I said okay I'll do it. but he then you didn't follow up and say okay it's done it was it was done I didn't know that how was I supposed to know that we operate very quickly that's well then github citizenship and build my lower bar well the bar thing is like okay this was just supposed to be a fun haha I see the thing but now it's going to hang up now fine
00:56:24
Speaker
yeah you see So Harbin sees Aeris over there having an animated argument with no one. See just a like trench coat like low ball cap man in the crowd also like gesturing wildly. So yeah you see Harbin, Harbin steps up and says a handful of very obviously scripted predetermined words but yeah he looks up and sees Aeris at one point and stumbles over the line before he gets back on track and There's some light clapping and then the crowd starts to disperse but there's also like food and drinks set out kind of thing. But Harbin... Harbin lingers near Eris kind of thing. Sorry. You're gonna have to be more specific if I know whether or not it's warranted. About your dad. He did what he did. Still your dad. It's complicated though. Yeah. Like I wouldn't wouldn't know any of the things I know or be who I am without him but obviously he's not a good person so I don't know.
00:57:18
Speaker
He tried something that went wrong. Yeah. I don't think it was him anymore. Not all of the time, so. Yeah, nice. I don't get the jail breaks weird and I don't know. Was that maybe that wasn't entirely him. Someone was trying. That wasn't me, but someone was trying to kill him. Why? I don't really actually understand it entirely myself. We saw it and stopped it and he got re-arrested. But I never really quite understood all of the why part of it. Yeah. I don't know. I'm just sorry. Thanks.
00:57:59
Speaker
Well, I mean, if you were all of, want a job, kind of in that position now. i de What? Like doing what? I mean, honestly, whatever you want. Just, you'd have the resources and financial backing, develop what you want and mill hatch industries and buy it from you. I don't want to make weapons. It seemed like that was a lot of what your dad's division was doing. Yeah, I mean that's what people are willing to pay for. So, what with the wars and everything and things still not being good, but... I'll think about that. I just don't <unk>t want to make weapons anymore.
00:58:31
Speaker
Yeah, I get that. Made a lot of weapons, and I hurt a lot of people with a lot of weapons that I made. And what my friends started killing people with a weapon that I made, and then other people started copying weapons that I made. And just, yeah, I want to make things people like. Fair enough. So if you needed that sort of thing. Yeah, i'll ah I'll let you know what we need. Okay. If you just wanted to talk or say hi or something like that, that'd be okay too. Maybe I can get some lessons from you and Olive again. I'm still confused by most of the things people say around me. I'm a really terrible teacher. Maybe I'll come get lessons from Olive. Yeah, that would be okay. Be nice. Okay. Thanks for coming, by the way. Yeah.
00:59:10
Speaker
Dr. Lanterns are hanging out at your events, by the way. Why? Probably something to do with your dad, but I just thought you should probably want to know. Good to know. Yeah. I think we have contacts. I don't know. I apparently have contacts, so... Yeah. Okay. Thanks. I'm beginning to think they're not very good at respecting privacy. I think they would be bad at their job if they did that. Yeah. I guess so. Okay. I just wanted to say that. Yeah. Thanks. I'll come back sometime and see you. Okay. Eris goes back to the cauldron. Okay. Yeah. Olive is at the cauldron and working on Cinder when you walk in. It's like, how was the event? It was good. We got to talk just a minute. You know, it was all right. Yeah. Do you seem okay? I don't know. I don't know if he likes being in charge. Yeah. It can be a lot. So I don't know. I think I'm not just going to not make weapons anymore. Okay. What are you going to make?
00:59:57
Speaker
I don't know, I've made a lot of weapons, but, and I don't know, maybe... I don't know, Drasso gave me this prototype, I thought I might work on ideas for it. It's like my communicator, and also like the musics I put into the spell shards, and also, like, it seems to be like all in one. interesting yeah yeah okay so i was thinking is we'd make one and beat him to market yeah interesting i just you know gadgets might customize people's skiffs that'd be cool i thought i might make a whole bunch more okay and they could use a hard one i did not hard may have misunderstood me just you know so that they can like walk the streets and then high walls would be safer interesting
01:00:44
Speaker
Okay, yeah, it's worth a shot. Yeah, we can also I mean you can't bribe egric and that's kind of what I've saw Being a criminal for a long time is the sean watch just kind of doesn't do things And there's some good ones, but and I was able to just trade a handful of favors to the dark lanterns for like whatever I wanted and he offered to kill people and I mean, that's kind of what they do. Yeah, but I'm just saying I didn't give him that much. I gave him a criminal and he offered to kill a lot of innocent people. But you also said that like they wanted a Lyra out of power, which you facilitate. Sure. You did a lot for them. Yeah. Okay. You helped them do a coup.
01:01:25
Speaker
I was gonna do that anyway but that's how you yeah that's that's how people make deals as you find something you already want to do and you find somebody willing to pay you to do but they would have killed people for me so I kind of feel like all the law enforcement is kind of bad Yeah, so I just thought I would make egrix and nothing could go wrong there. Yes automated emotionless non-thinking right? Yeah
Milo's Departure and Inheritance Revelation
01:01:49
Speaker
to police the streets that yeah that's like a perfect solution exactly so much better I guess I just won't let one of them think a little bit, you know additionally something else that we could look into Olive says gesturing at the box, you know that thing we can pull from all the different planes and you know, yeah, I'm
01:02:08
Speaker
been thinking, I'm not totally kind of worried about that. Well, but think about, like, obviously cinder is from fernia, which is right yeah destructive. I mean, fire can also be, but yeah but if we were to configure it to pull from Erean or Arisian, like, those could be, we could create things that function based off the power of those planes to help people. Like, imagine something that could keep an area cool. oh for a long duration oh you mean like gadgets yes what did you think i was talking about i thought you were talking about like getting things that could think and put them in the egrix no these can just pull from from planes like so we could okay put a dragon shard in there and infuse it with like yeah oh like that yeah okay we need to learn to talk to these things though i can talk to cinder well right but that's because cinder's in your brain
01:03:00
Speaker
No, he's not in my brain. He lives in the Dragon Shard. He's not in my brain right now. Yeah, but he talks into your mind. we canut you talking we're You're talking into my mind right now. if you don That is so similar. And they go into it. Yes. Back and forth. Yeah. Okay, so we're nearing the end of the month, probably hanging out at the four sails in high walls. It's starting to pick back up and presumably Milo and Rainard will be there and this can be the... Or actually... still way moment How did the local business owners infuse the cash into the community? We'll do... Yeah, so Aaron contacts Milo to have a meeting. So you get to her office. you know You're invisible behind the chair. He wouldn't.
01:03:42
Speaker
<unk> So yeah, Aaron is sitting behind your desk and Milo, sorry, things have been crazy and just trying to get everything sorted. So it's quite, quite all right. Have a seat. Let's, let's talk. Thank you. Yes. Talk next steps. So obviously keg bottoms construction should be starting up soon to have that built. And I don't know if Hobbs talked to you about his new security service stuff. If you want to be involved in that or ah there's some other. pa I can't imagine you still want to be able to land, but... Well, honestly, I need to leave, Sean. For what? Just, I need to get away from everything. I've been incredibly unhappy since Kylie's passing, and with everything that's gone on, and this magic thing that I have, and I just, I need to get away, and and just to be gone.
01:04:34
Speaker
All right. What happened to Kylie? It was awful. Unforgivable. And obviously, Satan would never can't help but feel a certain level of responsibility given. If justice would have been done before, my son wouldn't have been out to do what he did. So I'm sorry for that. I don't know where I went wrong. I don't know that you did go wrong. I mean, you did what a parent would do. Be that as it may. It was obviously the wrong decision. So, Milo, I understand you being unhappy. I feel that. So, tell me what you need. And if it's to go away for a while, that's fine, but let me allow me the opportunity to make good.
01:05:16
Speaker
Well I would still like for keg bottoms to be rebuilt. Obviously. My mother's going to have a hand in running things and I don't really know really anything else other than I just I just need to get out of shawn. All right. I don't think you need to do anything to make things right because honestly I don't think you've done anything wrong. It's very kind of you to say my love. As incorrect as it may be. That's wildly wrong of you to say that. I knew who Vigo was. I knew what he was capable of. Just didn't let myself really see it. So, where are you going? We have contacts. We can ensure that your life is set up well.
01:05:58
Speaker
Not entirely sure. Other than I'm just going to leave Sharn and see where it takes me. Alright. Well, it seems like there's nothing I can say to convince you to stay. This is correct, yes. It's a shame. But I understand grief. And I hope that you find the happiness you're looking for. Thank you. I appreciate that very much. All right. Well, we'll ensure that Keg Bottoms is up and running as soon as possible. Thank you, Milo, for everything. Yes, absolutely. And could we please put put Keg Bottoms in my mother's name, General, just in case? Of course. Of course. Yeah. And I do hope that you proceed in taking the clan in the direction that
01:06:45
Speaker
Satan was planning to go in. Yes, that's the asked the intention in the plan. I certainly miss him. I do too. And while we're at it, I suppose that I'm just wondering if you, I'm certain you probably do, but I hope it's okay if I may call you Ant.
01:07:07
Speaker
How long was that mother of yours able to keep her mouth shut? She says with a smirk. for a very, very long time. And honestly, I kept on until she finally gave in. Well, she always was a talker. Yes, I'm surprised she kept it for as long as she did. It was really quite recently, ah you know, but I always had an affinity for Satan. I always felt like he was a big part of my life. That was intentional, Mal. He wanted to keep you closer than most, so. He hated what had to happen, but sacrifices and all that.
01:07:44
Speaker
Yes. Yes. You may call me Ant. I'll probably still call you Milo, because calling someone nephew is just a little bit off the bus. Well, guess i and I'll be off. And on that note. Cable bye! Stop. Milo, hold on for a second. And she opens a drawer on her desk and pulls out. Pulls out. Small sack and tosses at you. Call it your inheritance. Thank you. Farewell. Goodbye. Bye. Okay. Anyone else? Got anything to say before? Milo gets home and looks in the sack. Oh, I mean, there's just a bunch of money. It's me. Yeah. It's me. It's a ground chuck. It's our recipe, Satan's, you know, family recipe. Yeah. You realize Hobbs is making money now. Yeah. Yeah. Neat! So many chickens. Okay, he talks to his drawers like, but like, you know.
01:08:33
Speaker
Chicken coop over there by the garden? Good idea, right? Wait, not Drogthor. Drogthor's on his down. Drogthor's on his down. Drogoth. We all know who I'm in, right, chat? Okay, so, yeah, you all are at the For Sales, presumably. It's about a month. With a few days worth of travel time built in. So, Milo, Reynard. Milo, I have a surprise for you. Aeris has a document. Yes. It's the D Dekeg Bottoms. id The Dark Lanterns rebuild it for you. Excellent. So I'm going to have two now. yeah on the word of the immortal bally part This one's not attached to the clan. you take the apostrophe off it's your it's a nest and it's ands I would like for it, if possible, to be built in high walls.
01:09:16
Speaker
Yeah, okay, sure. We have so many bars. they cool I love it. The destination spot, the nightlife in Highwall is crazy. Stay out. I'm going to need to have it put in my mother's name and I hope that i she'll be able to find enough people for the original keg bottoms but surely there are some folks here in high walls who would be good employees, sure perhaps one who could even run keg bottoms, and you both also need to know that when
01:09:54
Speaker
Yes, but... I'm here too. You two need to know that upon my mother's passing, both keg bottoms will be yours to do with as you please. Sell them, keep them, because I'm not going to be here.
Milo and Reynard's New Journey
01:10:11
Speaker
I'm going to leave Sean. What? Why? Well, you all you both know and Reynard, you know as well how unhappy I've been since Kylie's passing. But now we won. Hopp puts a hand, very rarely does do this, Hopp puts a hand on Eric's shoulder, he's Yes, we we did win, but I still have a gaping hole. I'm still very unhappy and and I know Eris, I know you're going to thank me quite insane, but I'm going to go to the alternate sharn to be with the Kylie who is there and hopefully find the happiness that I have lost and she is awaiting my coming and My life. Never been in shorn that you haven't been there. I don't know what that's going to look like. I am happy for you. And I think, no, I hope that you get what you need. Be careful, man. I don't know how you'll do out there without me. And that's very, very scary. Well, he's not going alone. You know, he puts the card on the table. Also, you have decided. Yes. We have criminal records clear.
01:11:23
Speaker
Well, hopefully where I'm going it will be doing things for good. You'll be fine. Good to do here. I just... Please be careful. Watch out for Rainard. Absolutely. Not his well-being, but what he's going to do. Beware. Are you sure Rainard? Is this what you want to do? Yes, I've... And I've already made arrangements, and I'm taking Arthur. Great. I mean, if this is... If that's what you want, man... Good luck. Be safe. See if they can assign you to the same universe, whatever. And if you find yourself back on this one, and I find out you didn't come to Sharn. We would absolutely come to Sharn. I'll find you. If there's ever an opportunity to come back, I certainly will come back to see how things have fared. I'll put his hand back on Eris's shoulder for a different reason this time.
01:12:10
Speaker
And if you hear anything about me dying, just go with it. Yeah, man, sure. It's not a rush, is it? Raynard died. Oh, not yet. Why are we so happy? That was a very upbeat announcement. What news? Well, we have some packing to do. Oh, I just pulled a suitcase of cat in tow. All I got is my cat. I hope that she is someone that you find a way to enjoy life with. I know she's Kylie. i Just hope, for your sake, that she is as much like your Kylie as she has seemed to be. Yes, as do I. I mean that is a blessing, not a not ah a warning. I want to be clear. I'm excited for you. I'm just very scared and sad. Yes, I am a bit nervous about it, but I've... thought about it for a while and my my mind is made up. Of course I'm going to miss both of you and the four sales and everything else. I'm going to miss the things that you're going to be doing that I'm sure will be
01:13:11
Speaker
Amazing and and good for Sean and good for high walls. But I feel this is something that I have to do to find some inner peace and some happiness. We did make quite the crew and we've been through a lot. That time is over and a new time shall begin for us. Kyle and Milo have probably hugged one other time in their relationship, and it was when Kylie died. So a hug probably goes in for one, and then hesitates, and then sees if Milo. Of course, Milo being Milo, he's definitely. Then he gets up and walks over to Eris. You mean he gets put down? Yeah, and he just kind of puts an arm just as much around Eris as he can get, and just kind of gets her a little squeeze. We fixed everything. Yes, yes we did.
01:13:56
Speaker
and you will continue to fix everything you know we're we're both moving on to aris we're staying here we'll be together and they'll be together and if one of them has to go i'm glad two of them are i have to it's not our call reynard slides over a key to the two of you and just says this is the key to my apartment don't Don't feel like you have to stay there or clean or anything. There's just a lot of things stashed away that you could sell if you need it for the, or high wall or cabbage. Thank you. Thank you, Randy. I won't be using it, so. Well, Reynard, I guess we best be off. All right. And they're off. Oh, Reynard too. I mean, important question for you, Randy. Does Milo contact Kath? The answer can be no, like,
01:14:49
Speaker
Milo, see, Milo hates, hates to break his word. But it sounds like Milo's a word to break his word. What if Milo tries to just say, hey, rainwater's going, now I don't need you. Yeah, that's what I'm just wondering if Kath shows up with Milo that feels like this isn't happening. Sorry. So, no. So, gosh. This issue is going to kill you. Yeah, she did. I think Milo, how many days do we have, like a couple of days before we're up travel? Yeah, probably are needing to leave, like.
01:15:24
Speaker
Would Milo have time to go tell Cath that, look, I got Reynard's going. Yeah, you have time. Okay. So he goes and says, Cath, Reynard is going with me. So. So I should bring more people to protect you too? Well, no, I'm just saying that with Reynard going, that perhaps it would be safer for you not to have to come. I'm just, part of me wonders that if you're there, that if he calls the deal off and we don't get to go. Yeah, that's my concern, is that if he sees a witness there and he gets all weird about it, that doesn't bode well for his office. I hate it when you're illogical. Did you come with me? Sure. Ah! but i mean What do you think, Raynard? I think we'll be safe. I think we're going to be just fine. but i Actually, Kath sees Raynard's like, what do you want? yeah What do I want? Yeah, are you here to make good?
01:16:17
Speaker
well You don't even remember, do you? Yes, that I did not help you resurrect Ace. And what was the second part of that conversation? Oh, damn it. Don't look at me, buddy. I know what it was. I don't want to say it. Ooh, that's why I asked it. renhart game Now he regrets it. I don't know what to say. How awkward and uncomfortable. You promised to help. And I'm sorry I did not. And that makes it all okay? No. Okay. Yeah. Seems like you two can take care of yourselves. And she shuts the door. well I guess there there we are. I guess we should be on our way. All right. Okay. So, Rainard and Milo, leave Sean. Heading out to the countryside. Why are your fingers crossed? A giant speacial. This could go south in a hurry. Designating meeting spot. In the wake of them leaving immediately, does anything happen with like when they walk out?
01:17:13
Speaker
between Aerys and Haw- What does that scene look like? I fixed everything. We fixed everything for all of us. That's why- And I'm sorry. There's nothing I can say that's gonna make you feel better. But because we fixed everything, they can go. Because we fixed everything, we don't work. We don't- We're not professional criminals any longer. We have things here, so we stayed here. The only thing Milo wants isn't here, and he knows of a place he can go to try to get it. and we can't stand in his way, Eris. I know it's not like the same as moving to Breland, and we can go see him or he can come back, but the whole reason we know the police exist is because they've come here before. They can come back. Olive is here. I am here. Ulfin is here. And I'm here because you're here. And as long as you're here, I'm here. I made up some dumb job so that I could stay here. I mean, I'm happy about it, but I'm sorry. And I'm sad too. And maybe you and I just go be sad together tonight. And if that's not what you want, let me know.
01:18:12
Speaker
Where do you want to go drink? Here's mine. Great. And I ask Ulfin if he would like to sit with us and have a drink. Yeah. Ulfin comes over and sits in the booth. Then after a few beats, you hear the door open and Sana walks in and kind of looks around and sees you all sitting there. And after a beat walks over and pulls a chair up and just sits. I'll bet he never called Verla. I think that might be the kindest thing he did before leaving here. And he holds up his his glass and he says, here's fixing everything. Okay, cut to a countryside of Breeland. There's a isolated tree in a field. You all, any kind of transport that you may have may may been able to take via lightning rail out of Sharn has long since come and gone and you all are
01:18:56
Speaker
walking through the tallish grass and you find yourself standing next to the tree spot designated by Kaskin's card. Then you see reality shimmer and then open up slightly and you see a figure in gold navy armor with a single band of white dragon scale around his forearm step through take helmet off. Genuinely wasn't sure. But um I'm happy to see you both, and I know some people that are going to be even more excited. Well, I'm excited to see you. Come on, I've got some people to introduce you to, too. All right, let's go, Reinhardt. A new adventure awaits. And I'm right there with you. And then you all disappear through the portal.
01:19:40
Speaker
I had some other beats for NPCs and stuff, but that feels like a we can put them in the a more beneficial spot to
