The Adventure Begins
00:00:03
Speaker
Our story begins in a far and distant land, a place ruled by houses of sentient animals and mythical creatures, an environment that is forever tipping the scales towards controversy and conflict. Grave danger lies hidden in every tavern, forest, and stranger's glance. In this kingdom, we will follow a deviant group of adventurers, brought together by chance, or perhaps by fate.
00:00:31
Speaker
This ragtag group of a tortle, a tabaxi, an otter and a hound will travel across this great kingdom, fighting their way through the unknown and weaving a powerful destiny. This is Rolling Across the Pond.
Meet the Game Master
00:00:49
Speaker
Hey everyone, welcome to Rolling Cross the Pond Animal Kingdom. I'm your GM Jesse and I have a stomach bug. I don't, I might have COVID. Who knows? Um, so tonight's going to be a little bit weird probably. Uh, so I apologize to you, our listeners, to my players and to the guests that will be joining us soon. Don't take this the wrong way or anything. If I get it wrong or what you say things wrong. All right.
Character Introductions
00:01:18
Speaker
Yes.
00:01:18
Speaker
My ladies and gentlemen, I'm Lee. I play your lovable, dangerous, killing machine, also known as Goron, the warrior monk. And let's see what's gonna happen, because I'm going back to the scene of the crime. Or should we say, your crime, because the character passed away there, and I don't think they've cleaned up the mess still. So we'll see. It's gonna be one of those episodes. It is a grim save. It is grim.
00:01:45
Speaker
Hi, I'm Davida. I play Hava, the barbarian, fae nine barbarian who is reunited with her dad and we're on our way to the Golden Kingdom, so we'll see what happens. Yeah, great. A returning guest. It's been away for a little bit and it's been my fault. It's been his fault. I'm Mike. I play Jackson, the smuggling to backseat Jaguar.
00:02:11
Speaker
Short and sweet perfect. Why don't we all do that? And that's it. That is it for now. We will wait and see. We're gonna have fun tonight. So it's gonna be kind of the going in and out of story and going in and out of character situations and what we're gonna do is we're gonna start with Jackson and
00:02:36
Speaker
Goro, and we're gonna start with because Jackson is ahead scouting, kind of taking the lay of the land on how the Wobbling Kingdom is, gonna see if he gets anything from perception
Jackson's Discovery
00:02:51
Speaker
checks. He's gonna do two perception checks, and with that he can get certain advantages and disadvantages throughout this time, so go for it. Roll, yeah, roll perception. Let's see, I got a
00:03:05
Speaker
an eight to start for the first one. You're like that's not good. That's not that good now.
00:03:12
Speaker
and then i got a fifteen fifteen okay i will say with that you can probably get advantage well not advantage you'd probably yeah you get it out so what i'm gonna have you do in a in a little bit is you're gonna roll for contact and i know it's not usually like that but this is certain special circumstances of the level of
00:03:40
Speaker
help the contact could be. So what you're going to do is roll a d20 with advantage. Otherwise you do not know for sure which entrance. So there is from which side you're coming from. You're coming from the the Baloch Kingdom to the Volden Kingdom so you're coming straight down and in that there was that was the majority of the fight.
00:04:06
Speaker
so there was there's a lot of damage in the walls and stuff at least on one side but there is also another entrance that you found with that 15 on the other side of the kingdom
00:04:21
Speaker
Now, you're not sure which is the right one to go to in layman's terms, but also there is still a fight happening.
Goro's Internal Struggle
00:04:32
Speaker
It's kind of calmed down because it's more in the kingdom itself at this point, but every time I talk like battling and stuff like that, it just kind of flashes Ukraine. And I don't know why. Maybe it's because I have a special attachment to Ukraine.
00:04:48
Speaker
but so yeah there's there's a lot more in the kingdom fighting than there is outside but they're still trying to hold off that that broken down area of the wall from king elrass's so you you come back to the caesar's group goro's group whichever whos ever is in charge i'm never sure with goro involved
00:05:10
Speaker
and you see them when Jackson comes back to the group, Goro, what's going through Goro's mind? It's been probably, it's close to the end of like a month, month and a half of traveling and getting there. So you've had time to kind of culminate with the group that kind of, I wouldn't say bond per se, but what would you say?
00:05:38
Speaker
they're a unit like i'm obviously an outsider so like i know how they operate but like i can see their value and i can understand why pj gets on with them and it's like i can see there's like a kinship there but like
00:05:53
Speaker
I'm definitely the let's say the black sheep of the bunch so it's like just watching from the outside and keeping myself to myself and okay trying not to really I would just say he's probably still not wanting to make friends because the last friend didn't turn out so good unfortunately so he's still hesitant
00:06:13
Speaker
Fair. Fair. And in that, at the same time, I would say most of them respect that. I mean, PJ's probably talked to Caesar and stuff like that, so it's not... I wouldn't say it's a malicious, like, you're the black sheep, it's just... there's just a divide, and they're respecting that. Or at least Caesar's respecting that, and that means the rest of them are respecting that. And... yeah. And PJ, you know, he kind of pokes in every so often, and sees what you're doing, and...
00:06:43
Speaker
Caesar, I mean Caesar. P.J. is not fully himself either. He's really embraced this, I wouldn't say murderous side, but very kind of like his soul has been ripped out of him and he just doesn't care anymore about anything.
00:07:00
Speaker
but he's been working with Caesar for a bit and he's starting to... and seeing you really brought up back stuff up so he's just kind of... he kind of pokes you, you know, hey, hey, girl, you doing okay today? Yeah, I'm... I'm doing all right, I think because obviously where we're going I'm returning to where it all happened and I know I can't take it back but I know I'm probably not gonna be myself so
00:07:29
Speaker
Yeah, it's just gonna be one of I think it's just gonna be a long day and that's fine Yeah, I'm ready to go. It's just it's just gonna be a long day sure sure and Jackson you kind of join in the group now and and it's like hey Jackson
Secret Entrance Plan
00:07:44
Speaker
Jackson. What did you find? How things been a while? It's all right. I I found a couple of entrances and I gotta decide the
00:07:58
Speaker
which one we're going to. Right. Yeah. Awesome. I mean, it's amazing that you found these entrances. How does it look? Is it bad? I'm not going to lie. One of them looks pretty sketchy. A lot of fighting happened there and still a little bit going on. But the other one I found was it's a secret entrance that
00:08:20
Speaker
I think can be helpful. Cool, right. Yeah, that sounds awesome. And Caesar comes up to me, gives you a big hug. He's like, thank you so much for going. Haha. Yeah. You're amazing.
00:08:37
Speaker
I feel like that's the only like appropriate response. Yeah, just take it all in. Just take it all in.
00:08:52
Speaker
And yeah, you guys continue to head out. You are, like, less than a day's journey to get there, to get to the point where you have to make this decision.
Unveiling Forgotten Memories
00:09:02
Speaker
But I want you guys to roll Wisdom Save with Advantage. Okay, we got a 13. I don't remember in the past episodes if I've done 15 or 12. I think I've done 12. I usually do 15 or 12, unless it's really hard. What'd you get, Goro?
00:09:21
Speaker
17 plus two, so I got 19. 19. You definitely pass. I was grateful for the advantage. Thanks. I was grateful for the advantage.
00:09:31
Speaker
I think you're fine, Jackson. I think I did say 12 before. But anyways, it's lowered now. Well, I say you're fine, but this has happened constantly, and you're kind of getting used to it, and that's why I said roll with advantage. Listers would know that through the Hava experience that I've had them roll a lot of Wisdom saves.
00:09:58
Speaker
And I haven't been able to get the same connection with Goro's team, but they've been doing the same thing. And so it's been a while, and for the past time, you have been experiencing either headaches, migraines, almost blackout pain, to a time that doesn't make sense to you. You've experienced a time that
00:10:25
Speaker
Yeah, it just doesn't, it doesn't click in your brain that ever existed. It just seems that there is, it's like your brain is coming back together that it forgot something and there's a lot of connections, there's a lot of moments that are actually making more sense that you would remember that it was called the day of forget. The day of forget where it was at one point everybody would just, they just woke up.
00:10:52
Speaker
They just woke up the next day and they can't remember anything before it. And they can't remember key things before it. So like the Fe9 being around. The wizard magic being around. All of that. And the reason King Elros was kicked out. You all remember that King Elros was the king of the Voldemort kingdom. And because you pass your wisdom saves, you don't pass out.
00:11:23
Speaker
So do we see other people pass out? Let me see, let me roll. We just see if someone just like literally goes and we're just like... The PJ pass out? Oh, PJ's fine. Everyone displays plants and eats dirt. Oh, the rhino's skinny passes out.
00:11:42
Speaker
Yeah, the rest are fine. Yeah, but right the yeah skinny and he's not skinny either Oh she she's not skinny Do we have to carry her now? Yeah, probably This is a bomber situation Yeah Yeah, you remember these things you remember that there was a day that's called a day of forget like I
00:12:10
Speaker
So yeah, that's all been flooded back into your heads, and that is as you approach this kingdom. How do you react to that?
00:12:19
Speaker
I just throw up a little bit and then I just go, guys, did you just like have a migraine or something? Just like, cause it just did a number on me and I'm pretty positive whatever happened to me happened to her and Skinny's like passed out on the floor. I just pointed at her and I just look at her and I look at everyone else and everyone else didn't throw up. And I'm just like, okay, I guess it's just me that threw up then, right? No one has to throw up. Yeah, I think I'd be like,
00:12:47
Speaker
What is that? I'm remembering things and people that I can't, yeah. How?
Memory Conspiracy
00:12:56
Speaker
And then I kind of look at Caesar and like, this too, like, I thought you were. Yeah, yeah, I don't know. I don't get it. When did we, why did my father, why did my father banish them? What?
00:13:15
Speaker
What's going on? What? King Alras is the king? This dog folk I've never met? Is... yeah. Wait, no. I did... I did meet... I did meet him. And he's like... he's like going through time loops because he went through a time machine.
00:13:37
Speaker
And he's like, oh, right. I did go in back in time and meet him then. That's right. I already knew he was king. That's all right. I'm good. That's okay. And PJ is just like, I need to sit down. Wait, wait. Before we even step foot in there, I need to sit down.
00:13:57
Speaker
Um, so some time passes with that. You come to the point where you have to make the decision, Jackson, but I will let you roll for contact with Advantage to help you with this decision. Alright, I got a 12.
00:14:15
Speaker
Oh, not rolling great. No. Oh man, the perfect guy for if it was like an 18 to 20. I think with the 12, you have a decent contact. They're not like, I know the lay of the land, but they have a small shop and they are, they're in the free area.
Stealth Approach
00:14:40
Speaker
which is not near you, not on your side. So they don't know exactly what's happening behind their kind of area. So it's an educated guess at this point. I know what the entrances look like though, right? Yeah, one is literally like a hole in the wall, like a hole in the wall where they
00:15:03
Speaker
at this point they're smuggling in wizards and king alras because they've already started to remember and they've been helping because they they aligned with king alras and they remember and they were like devoted to him and so that's how he's snuck in that way the military section the golden kingdom military area is where the broken down wall is where it's a wider opening but
00:15:32
Speaker
because the wall's broken down, but it is full of fighting still. Okay. Let's go with the other one, not where the fighting is. Let's try there. We'll see what happens. Then I'm going to need stealth checks. All right. Yeah. So, Goro, Jackson, stealth checks, please. 24 for me. 24? That's amazing. I got a plus seven, so. Nice. Part two.
00:16:02
Speaker
I'm just going to do it just because it's me. I'm not stealthing. I'm a seven foot total. I cannot stealth. Like how the hell am I stealthing? So I said that I wanted to do it naturally and it's just so happens that I rolled a natural one.
00:16:31
Speaker
Okay. I'm not going to be stealthing. I tell them this all the time and then I roll either a one or anything less than a six all the time. So it's just become natural.
00:16:48
Speaker
okay is it stealth as well so it is a natural one but my stealth on top of that we'll just take it to a mighty three well not one dude well skinny skinny has also rolled a two and
00:17:03
Speaker
yeah because she's passed out so she she's rolled disadvantage and who was else was it Clara? Clara was also there and she rolled and she got an 18 so that's fine PJ got a natural 20 so he's he's in the dark uh Caesar doesn't have to roll because he's invisible so we're gonna switch to Hava really not really quick but like for a time and then we'll we'll go back to Goro and and uh Jackson
00:17:31
Speaker
So, Hava, I mean, I really just have a few questions for you. So you've been traveling with, you know, you're friendly, you're kind. Did you actually make any friends, do you think? Do you have like some animals that you kind of other than Blaine Joy that you prank and pick on and stuff like that? Do you? I feel like she's still trying to. I mean, did everyone come? Like everyone who was in that camp? Basically, there's a few that didn't, but.
Hava's Encounter with Tail
00:18:00
Speaker
OK.
00:18:00
Speaker
Like maybe, well, from what I have in. Cause I was thinking Barb, the, the old cow who was, uh, that I have an interaction. I feel like, but I was like, she's a little bit older, so I don't know if she came with us. Um, like I don't know if the, the young and old came basically. I probably would either try and, you know, keep making friends with her.
00:18:23
Speaker
But I think she doesn't like that, so I feel like I'm bothering her, but not on purpose. Well, roll persuasion. Roll persuasion. If you want to go for it, go for it. Because I would probably want to be friends with her. Sure, sure. But I rolled a two. And I think my modifier is... Oh, for persuasion? So technically seven. Whoa, okay, I'm gonna roll. I have a plus five on persuasion, but I didn't roll very high, so...
00:18:53
Speaker
She whispers something under her breath and continues to endure your ness, but she does not like you still. Yeah, that's fine. So I still try and talk to her, but mostly I'm just bugging her and she doesn't like that anymore.
00:19:13
Speaker
I feel like, yeah, she's probably, I don't know, she probably would have made friends with the, I feel like she would have tried to gravitate towards people that reminded her of home. So if there were any other animals that are similar to otters or if there are any otters there. Uh, the mural. No, no otters. Are there beavers?
00:19:39
Speaker
Am I wrong? Oh, no, actually I did say there was a beaver in my thing. So yes, yes, there is a beaver. Okay. I feel like, especially cause also kind of reminds me of Uber, but also similar to Otters in a, in a way. Oh yeah. Uber's there as well. So Uber, I need to roll for Uber as well with those things, but you go on. Oh, he's fine. No, for them, for them. Oh, I was like, Uber's not with us. Um, Uber's with them. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:20:05
Speaker
I forgot about Uber. I did. I totally forgot about Uber. Carry on. So yeah, he reminds me of Uber. So who's this beaver that I've gotten to know? I didn't put him to a name. Did I put a name? His name is Tails. Oh, that's copyright. A tail. Okay. That's not copyright.
00:20:30
Speaker
It's like tail the 4th, tail the 37th. I thought you were going to say something like lift, lift, you know. No, Uber is Uber. Uber, you know, Uber and then the other beaver's name is lift and another one is taxi. No, we're going to live on the edge and go with tail. One needs to be called cabby. Tailgating. Yeah, tailgate.
00:20:55
Speaker
No, Uber is special. Envoy. You're done right, Uber's special. Geez Louise. Okay, so, so's name's tail.
00:21:05
Speaker
So yeah, I feel like she would have tried to like become friends with with tail because also kind of makes me think of her otter people and also Uber. Cool. Great. I don't think she would gravitate as much towards her own dog people. Sure. Because she's not used to it. Fair.
King Elrass and the Free Nation
00:21:21
Speaker
Do you I guess you wouldn't necessarily reject them inviting you to things. But no, you wouldn't initiate it in that sense. I think so. Yeah. Great. No problem.
00:21:31
Speaker
So there is like specific times when the fenine come together and kind of separate. Actually, you do notice there are like different factions. So it's not just all wizards. It's like there's rogues, there's barbarians, which are fenine. But there's like, there's a fighter, there's a few rangers. It's a mixture of things. So it's like these animals are coming together.
00:21:59
Speaker
to help this cause. So it's not just wizards that have been forgotten, but these guys have just come together because they realized that they were wrong and King Elrass is the true king and they need to support him. And that now, speaking of King Elrass, how is that going? I feel like she's doing okay. I don't know how he's, what is King Elrass is kind of like approaching us to Ava is like, how is he's like, you know,
00:22:28
Speaker
Like the Willy Wonka and chocolate factory? The girl who wants everything and like, I want that back. And he's like, yeah, okay. Yeah, you can have that. That's fine. Yeah. That's, that's exactly how he is. That is a hundred percent. He is, I do not want to say anything, do anything wrong to this little girl. Cause I, she's the only family I have. So he's Baruka, he's like Baruka's dad. Yeah. Baruka. That's her name. Yeah.
00:22:56
Speaker
basically just trying to please him. But I don't think I would be quite as, I don't think I would be quite as demanding as Baruchas. No, you don't have to be. You don't have to be, but he is willing to do whatever it takes to keep you in his life. I mean that just sounds like a dad and his daughter. I disagree 100%.
00:23:17
Speaker
I mean, my daughter's younger than yours, so I don't know. Yeah, so then I probably would, you know, join for meals and tell them all about my travels and what has happened in my life. And I would be sharing. Yeah, I would probably share a lot of my life with him then. Cool. And he'd probably do the same. I'd say you guys have grown to connect in that sense. A Buruga salt. There we go. Not Buruga.
00:23:45
Speaker
yeah great and see that you're traveling for a while and you are and you are not entering you are heading to the volden kingdom like you're at the entrance again like with everybody
00:24:00
Speaker
There aren't very many civilians with you, but there are civilians with you. It's kind of, that's why a lot of, not a lot, but a few military had stayed behinds, a few wizards and whatnot stayed behind, because there is still non-fighters in that group. And in that, at the same exact time, simultaneously,
00:24:24
Speaker
you see Caesar drawing something in the in the sand because he has a contact in there to help to help or maybe not to help but to solidify what you have have told him about the secret entrance uh Jackson at the same time purity is sitting down with you guys in the wagon
00:24:47
Speaker
and you both are looking at a map of basically the golden kingdom of what I've shown you and you see that there is the section for the military that has been cut to them and you see that they and like Caesar is drawing this map in the sand and
00:25:02
Speaker
Hava your purity is has the map on the in the middle of you guys and and just kind of separating it by like I don't know the quill or something and And so you all see the map that I've shown you in the in the chat. Okay, so we're in like You're not in in yet, but you're right But yes, you yes King Elrass's King Elrass has territory in the Golden Kingdom
00:25:31
Speaker
even though he hasn't shown up yet? Yes, but his fighters have the territory. He sent some people ahead? Yeah, that's what the whole fight is. Okay. That's what the war has been. I'm just a dog and who's trying to... There's a little bit here that I kind of been pouring on. I feel like that was a Davina sentence though. I don't think that had all made it.
00:25:57
Speaker
I think Davita was saying, wait a second, how did King Elroz get territory without being there? Is it? I don't know. Who? No. Run through the wall like a Bugs Bunny. Yeah, no, I didn't. Sorry. I must have just not clued into that particular fact. Sure.
00:26:19
Speaker
I was wondering who they were fighting. Wait, Caesar's fighting King Alrassus? No, Caesar is not fighting anybody.
00:26:27
Speaker
Well, when they, when I was talking to them. So they were fighting rogue company. They were fighting bandits. They were fighting, uh, they could have had a conversation while he was fighting people. And I can't remember who they were fighting. I don't think they never, they never said a name, but they could have been fighting King Iros's people. They could have been fighting Vold and Kingdom people. It's like, it's just all at war right now.
00:26:50
Speaker
Caesar does agree that going through there would probably be the best bet to meet with Hava and meet at their meeting spot and connect with your contact in there that will basically head that way. King Alros wants to get to his territory, but he has to go through the freedom, the free area first.
00:27:15
Speaker
And the free people or the free animals or whatever are not supporting the King, King Elrass at this point? They're not supporting any monarch. They want a free nation of democracy. OK. So if King Elrass tried to go through them, would they be hostile to him, basically? Well, you're not sure. But it's not a violent area. But at the same time, they will defend themselves.
00:27:45
Speaker
if they're attacked right now now you do and purity and caesar has says this at kind of you know back-to-back times and they're like there's this building in between it looks like it's a shop and that shop can can connect us to the the volden military and to the free place but we need to
00:28:12
Speaker
work our way around getting and then they say through the free place getting through the King Elrath situation and now with all that information we're going to go back to uh sorry yours was so quick i will bring us together
00:28:31
Speaker
We were gonna go back to Goro and Jackson, but... And I say a very quick but because I want Story to be involved and I want Jackson to be involved. With that natural one, I'm gonna go back in time a bit and I'm gonna ask my guests to appear because I have a question and it's very relevant and I need them to basically help me out with this. I'm here.
00:29:10
Speaker
So Sam Your your new character welcome back by the way By guess he's not really a guess he's a main cast member So your your
00:29:29
Speaker
Immediately, I guess I'm kind of going to be intertwined, but basically, you guys show up the Volan Kingdom.
Avalon's Debut
00:29:38

Speaker
like you do you guys I'll be this distraction I guess I feel like you're just gonna yell like I'm not gonna hide not really I'm just literally just I'm just gonna stand um are we like on a street or whatever yeah you basically you need to get into the open you need to get through the open area no I'm just walking straight through the open area I don't even care
00:32:47
Speaker
Like, how do you get revealed after trying to be stealthy?
00:33:00
Speaker
You know what, and what was it? Clara, Clara, oh no, Clara passed her thing. Skinny kind of just falls off of her little thing as well as you're passing by. But yeah, you basically make that and you trip over something and you roll a bit and you kind of do like a turtle roll or not turtle roll, a coin roll where you go on your shell on the side and you're just turning and turning and turning and you finally land on your back.
00:33:29
Speaker
Did he trip over the passed-out skinny? Yeah, that's it. You trip over the passed-out skinny and you both sustain a d6 of damage. Oh my god. All right, here we go. Oh, it had to be a six, didn't it? Jesus. It had to be. It had to be a six. The opposite. Jeez Louise. Okay. Yeah. And then Avalon, your team of you, Chunk, and two others of, I don't know, a Giraffe and
00:33:59
Speaker
Uh, uh, giraffe and, uh, pant. No, I keep saying panda. Panda's like my go- Kangaroo. Kangaroo. Perfect. Bring your kangaroo back. Are in it, but the, the kangaroo is a fighter and the giraffe is a rogue. So they're not, they're not magically- I'm just thinking of a giraffe trying to be like sneaky. It's like huge. That's pretty good.
00:34:26
Speaker
So stupid. How on earth can a giraffe be a rogue? It's rebellious. It's like camouflage. It has like chameleon traits or something. My one worry was like in this universe we haven't talked about street lamps and it just disguises itself as a street lamp constantly. So bad. Like that one place, you know, it has a street lamp. Yeah, it's got to be newly installed surely.
00:34:52
Speaker
Oh, giraffes are mythical creatures anyway, so. Yeah. True, true. So you see this tortle doing the coin roll and the end up on its back. And it tripped over a massive rhino, or he tripped over. So in my perimeter, well, as my team is walking around the perimeter,
00:35:15
Speaker
Are we just looking to prevent anyone from doing anything or? You're kind of just making sure there's, like, so from your past missions, you know that it's the priority is not to hurt civilians or non combatants.
00:35:33
Speaker
So if they comply and they're like totally fine, then you know to, okay, just follow me and we'll, you know, we'll take you to the appropriate areas, basically. Yeah, basically, because, you know, King Elrass isn't about, he doesn't want to take his kingdom by force or maliciously, he wants to, you know, bring everybody back together. Okay. Whether that happens, you know. In which case, what?
00:36:02
Speaker
I would do is I would kind of signal to my team to be ready and I would walk over to this tortle and passed out rhino. And as you're walking over, I'm just here. Wait, man. What did you mean by be ready? You'll figure it out, junk. All right. Cool. Cool, man. Great. And I kind of walk up to Goro and is
00:36:33
Speaker
everything okay. It's like the worst piece of key forever. Goro does, you know when Sideshow Bob gets hit by a rake? And he's just like, he just literally is like, why do I always have to do stealth? He's just so angry.
00:36:58
Speaker
He's just like lying there. Is he still on his back? Like, can you get up from, if you're on your back? Yeah. He would probably say, is everything okay? And while he's saying this, I just want this seven foot tall to just to get up and just stand over him. Yeah. So do you want to describe a character at that moment? I was thinking, so yes, you see this really small three foot tall kingfisher kind of hopping over.
00:37:22
Speaker
bright blue sapphire coloured feathers and the tips of my wings and my tail are bright red hence the flame feather but yeah so typical kingfishers kind of style yeah i look kind of shiny yeah great that's a curious song so yeah sure what what do you say like is that the gist of it do you do you have a set set questions you have to ask Avalon
00:37:50
Speaker
Yeah, I'm kind of waiting for a logical response, I guess, to my first question. So my follow-up question would basically go with, so what are you doing? Goro just stays silent.
00:38:08
Speaker
At this moment, Caesar kind of is like, do I go out, guys? And the rest of them are like, I don't know. At the same time, Chunk is walking up to you, and he puts his arm on your head, and he's like, yeah, man, I still don't understand what you mean by be ready, dude. So I don't want to... When Chunk puts his hand on my head, he suddenly sees this little bat flying around in his face.
00:38:36
Speaker
while they're agitatedly. Oh, oh, oh, oh, wait. Oh, over, over. Sorry, dude. Sorry. Sorry, dude. Okay. Okay. Oh, back off. Back off. Okay. Okay. I'll go back. I'll go back. I'll go back with people. I will go back. Okay. If you like, back to me. Thanks, Ted. All right. So, yeah, I'm still trying to basically establish what is happening. Like, so I'm still trying to get some answer out of this turtle and slowly just assuming that this turtle is either dumb or just incredibly dense.
00:39:06
Speaker
So my question is then to our DGM, with this new character, does he know of a certain bounty that's on my head? No, because he is... He's not from that place. So he's been like in a small village and then he went to King Elrass' camp. Those are the two things he's kind of, right? You haven't really ventured out much more than that.
00:39:28
Speaker
Okay. Um, okay. I'm just like, and he's just been working with King out Ross's like missions and stuff like that. So yeah. Yeah. Um, I'm good. Thank you. Um, how about yourself? So you do speak. I was starting to wonder for a moment.
00:39:47
Speaker
Oh my god. So I literally just look at him. Look at his sidekick. Look at him again. Look at his sidekick. And then I looked to where the guys are all hiding. And I'm like, any time can you guys come and just like, PJ's like, I think I think you need to go see there. I think you go. Come on. Come on.
00:40:05
Speaker
where have you come from which part of this kingdom and he's like oh man okay okay sorry sorry and he's like being pushed out by everybody else oh okay okay hey hey hey um hey mate um little mate uh oh right he can't see me i mean like he has to get really close to you
00:40:26
Speaker
And he like... Do I hear him before I see anything? No, you don't, you don't. Okay, so I don't hear him either? No, he has to literally touch you for his existence to be known. And so he, he like, all of a sudden you feel a paw, like, not a paw, maybe like a claw, like tap your shoulder.
00:40:46
Speaker
Because he realized when Chunk touched your head, the bat kind of went over his face. He like tapped it and then like immediately a massive lion comes out. As soon as he touches my shoulder, my immediate reaction is like, Chunk, will you? And then you see, as you say, Chunk, you see Caesar in his full glory.
00:41:16
Speaker
No, mate. Um, um, I, I, I definitely put on a few pounds, uh, but, uh, um, I'm, I'm Caesar. Uh, I, you know, I, I, I, I bulk up, you know, you can call me chunk if you want. I, or I am, you know, I don't know. Yeah.
00:41:36
Speaker
We're looking to get into the Volden Kingdom. I need to get some resources. Is that all right, mate? What do you mean by resources? Well, we've been traveling for a long time and so we need to refuel. We're trying to meet a friend.
00:41:56
Speaker
this guy and he like pats girl like shell he's like this guy's friend she's in the volden kingdom i don't know if you know her her name's hava as in the hava so you do know hava okay you you know know hava not like in the biblical sense but like as in reputation sense i i have heard of hava right yeah
00:42:22
Speaker
Yeah, so, you know, Goro's an old friend of hers, and PJ like waves in the background. He is a friend of Hava. Well, I'm not 100% sure. I came into this picture later. I, you know, I'm kind of the in-between. I don't know, I'm helping him out, get to his friend, and then... I don't know.
00:42:48
Speaker
while this conversation's going Goro just crosses his arms and he's like kind of got like both is like face palming slowly like what the heck is going on like what is going on so how many people do i see so you saw pj wave you saw caesar and you see goro and oh and you see skinny and you see skinny so the only one you don't see is clara that's out anyway yeah at the moment yeah okay
00:43:16
Speaker
and me and yeah oh and jackson yeah sorry okay so i see three people yeah okay so i'm not entirely convinced about these guys yet either way i want to play it safe so i pull out my wand and basically cast hold person on the three of them okay then uh isn't that a cantrip is it it's uh second level
00:43:41
Speaker
Okay, then you're gonna need to roll a slide of hand for that. Yes, I realized that. 12. Okay. We have to notice this, Jess?
00:43:52
Speaker
no not necessarily well you could do if you want it's more for the more for basically chunk okay yeah but others can roll perception i would not be looking right now i'm definitely face palming i'm face palming i wouldn't be noticing what did you roll 12 yeah okay with disadvantage
00:44:14
Speaker
I'm rolling with this. No, no, for Chunk. Since he's Chunk. Yeah. He still sees it, doesn't he? He still sees it. So how does it happen with a level two? So I'm definitely grabbing hold of my medallion. And I'm kind of holding the wand, but in the heat of everything with all the confusion, I just completely forget to move the wand. So I just cast this spell hold person.
00:44:43
Speaker
And so basically what happens with that is Guru, Caesar, and PJ all have to make wisdom saves. Sure. No. Yeah. We'll make wisdom saves. DC 15. It's with a level two. It'll be my thing. It's 15. 15. I think. Give me a sec. Where's my... Yeah. 15.
00:45:10
Speaker
you as you're casting this all you hear from caesars look you can bring us in cat and he's like i'm gonna roll for him but i'm pretty sure you're not trying to you know kill harvard he's he's hold on let me
00:45:27
Speaker
So did this does not give us the ability to speak then as well? I think so. You're just paralyzed. So I would suggest you can probably still talk. You just can't move. It would be the status effect paralyzed. Right. Well, I rolled a seven. So I try and remove my hand from my face and I literally go. And I want to put a sensor on here. Fucking wizards.
00:45:55
Speaker
Oh, PJ rolled, uh, what is it, Winston? So he rolled an unnatural 20, a dirty 20. And PJ is not paralyzed. So PJ is not paralyzed. Cesar rolled an unnatural 21, which you can't get a natural 21. So.
00:46:13
Speaker
Unless your dice is rigged, which... Yeah, click on a natural 21. So she's just like, um, actually, you know what, I'm going to roll insight in that then. She's just like, mate, you're not a wizard. And shush. I am a wizard. I have a familiar. Pip. And you see Pip, my little bat familiar, flying around around me. What do you say, Jackson?
00:46:39
Speaker
Oh, it was more commentary. What is this? Reverse Hagrid? You're a wizard, Harry. You're not a wizard, mate. And then a chunk behind is like, dude, what? I don't think you are. What is this? Why? I'm definitely a wizard. How long have you been with me now? For a long time. You've never done this.
00:47:09
Speaker
You tried to cast a whole person, and... No, I did cast a whole person. Right. I used the wand, as somebody remembered that, I'm owning it. Oh, you didn't use the wand. You didn't use the wand. It's in my world deception. I saw the glow. I'm sorry, mate. Am I world deception on this?
00:47:26
Speaker
no you've been exposed by a lot he got it he got it like like a 24 oh uh caesar has his own like proper character sheet and he's been leveling up yeah that's fine i'm more thinking about junk just trying to convince so uh
00:47:46
Speaker
No, he rolled really well with his insight, so no. So he had a natural 20 and a 14, so I'm gonna say.
00:47:58
Speaker
So do I, do I have, so I just wanted to ask one thing, being paralyzed, is that like being charmed and stuff like that? No, you just- Thank God. Okay, we're good then. You don't have any affinity towards me, you just can't move. I just can't move, that's fine. And he's like, mate, I see you cast Hold Person because it's look like Goro can't move, obviously. I don't know who else you tried to do it to, but you tried to do it to, to, I'm sure, yeah.
00:48:28
Speaker
so can you can take us in and we will see harva we you could put us wherever you need and harva will tell you we're okay so i would turn to chunk at this point and go okay chunk ignore the fact that you think i'm not a wizard you're wrong but dude you're not a wizard whatever semantics
00:48:50
Speaker
I have two wands, dude. Do you have two wands? I don't need two wands. That's right, because you're not a wizard. I don't need one wand, because it's just a stick. This one's just a stick because I picked it up by accident, but this one is a wand.
00:49:06
Speaker
Is he holding the wrong one up when he says this one? Yeah. He held it backwards. Yeah. So, okay, ignore that chunk. Let's take these in to see, I don't know, somebody higher up. Let them decide. All right, dude. Do you, should we, do we want to see if the others have noticed you're not a wizard? Do you want to be honest with them and tell them they're not a wizard? Why don't we just keep that to ourselves, chunk?
00:49:35
Speaker
All right. I don't mind. Sounds good. Okay. You're not convincing me, John. So, okay. Somebody asked, somebody asked, if no one asked, it's fine. Okay. So we, I'll turn back to season and go,
Journey to Meet Hava
00:49:52
Speaker
okay. If you guys, if you come with us, if someone wants to drag your tortle and somebody else wants to drag your rhino,
00:49:59
Speaker
I mean, either that or we can just leave them here, I guess. Oh, we can't take both. Fine. So I'll release hold a person. Great. And so you can move again, Garo. I'm sorry for the spell. You need to come with us. That's all right, mate. No worries. I understand. Protocol and all that. Okay. Thank you.
00:50:20
Speaker
How does Goru react to all of that? He's in the nicest way possible. You don't want to speak to him right now. Like you, you can tell that he's holding something back. He's trying to be nice because yeah, he's not happy. Like he's just not happy. So I will cast, press the digitization and basically create a,
00:50:48
Speaker
The sensation of a cold bucket of water slapping the rhino in the face. Skinny, skinny. Sounds good. She immediately wakes up from that and can walk up. And I'm not going to have you roll because it's a cantrip. So it's fine. And you've done that since the beginning. So thank you. I turned to Chunk and Gary to see Wand Wizard.
00:51:14
Speaker
Indeed. It's alright. You don't have to be a wizard. It's cute. We can't all be this cool. Well, you can't obviously be this intelligent. Whatever. So Caesar's like, hey, uh, other guys, Jackson, Clara, you guys want to come out? Alright, I guess so. I'm wondering what his reaction to this though is like, he's just been dealing with like three, four, well one passed out and three people and then like... Two more just popped out. The rest of us are...
00:51:45
Speaker
Yeah, you take them into the Golden Kingdom, King Elrath section and they head that way. This podcast is sponsored by BetterHelp. Mental health has always been important and BetterHelp has found that although therapy is one of the most useful and effective treatments for mental health,

00:53:10
Speaker
Now, Hava, you kind of have, you can do some input. So right now you're in the wagon with Purity and King Alros and Blainejoy, and you're kind of going over how to get to that area, or do you start from one side of the Golden Kingdom to get inward to, and to kind of combined the Free Nation with
00:53:38
Speaker
Right, so you're asking whether I want to start from the moment we get into the building kingdom or once we've already
00:53:46
Speaker
yeah so when you get in you will be will have the opportunity to and so the way it works sorry on the map there is the sand's not reached fully to where the freedom section is then the democracy section is for example but it's just an estimate it could get to that point within the next few days okay
00:54:10
Speaker
But you can still take that path around the free part, and even in that, you can pass through that shop somehow. You can pass through that area that's not been targeted, or is targeted, but it's shared between the free and the military of the Folding Kingdom.
00:54:32
Speaker
It's not shared by the King Elrath people though. It's only shared by those two. So you can get, you can see if you guys can break through that and then enter to the King Elrath section or you can go into, that's fine. You can go into the free area, the democracy area and then work your way to the King Elrath area.
00:54:55
Speaker
Okay, so the map on the left, that's the entrance we would probably be coming through. Yeah. Okay. Oh, and I see there's, there's still part of the golden, golden kingdom army that I would have to get to, to get to my place, or I'd have to go through the shop or through the free people's camp. Yes.
00:55:14
Speaker
or you can take a few days to go around but to the other entrance a lot of a lot longer of time so it could take like another month or so but oh gosh well we'll not do that does king alraas have a like is it my decision no no it's it's a combination so king alraas is like
00:55:36
Speaker
You know, I just want to burst through it. I, you know, I don't need to worry. We have enough military, like you guys have over 120 different, like you have majority wizards. You have loads, like I said, different factions of people that are with you.
00:55:52
Speaker
About over 120, I think it is, all together, of fighters. And then you have some civilians in that as well. So you have a fighting crew that you can take and bring through, and if you just want to break it through, and that's kind of what King Alras is like, yeah, let's just do that.
00:56:10
Speaker
So he wants to fight through the three people's area to get to where we're at. Yeah, purity is more tactful. And she's saying that you should go around in through the, because it's just an estimate of the sand being that far. And it's kind of, it's not an Oh, we know what happens when you touch that.
00:56:30
Speaker
So it's rumored that you do Sustain damage as you try and and enter and try and enter that area, but only where the sand is properly Okay, there's still a pathway to get to where we're at without having to cross that yet. Yeah, okay Now she's saying to go around but it would it would take some time because it's it's a large group of animals That you're trying to bring and sneakily
00:57:00
Speaker
Oh, right. Well, it's not necessarily sneakily, but if they if the golden kingdom sees you, they're going to attack. They're going to attack. Yeah. And and we don't know how we don't know yet if the the free people's if we try and go through their encampment, we don't know if they're going to attack us or you know that they won't attack if you don't attack.
00:57:23
Speaker
Okay. Yeah. But, but if we go through, King LRS is planning on attacking. It's kind of what I'm getting. If you guys can convince him otherwise, that's fine. He won't, like I said, he's like, if you want chocolate, I'll get you chocolate if you want. Right.
00:57:40
Speaker
you want me to kill six different animals i'll do it like now like whatever but like she she haven't knows that these free peoples are at this point she knows that they're they're they're not they're not looking for a fight yeah basically she knows just defending their right to freedom and they're trying to fight for it
00:58:00
Speaker
Right, so she's heard that about these people so animals. Okay, so I think she would ask her dad, can we, we are like suggest like can can we go through the free people's thing.
00:58:15
Speaker
I'm waiting to meet up with Coro and PJ. And, uh, I think the best way at Uber too, I think it should just go through, through the free people's camp and then we can see them quicker. So, but like, let's be nice to them because they're like just animals, you know? Uh, but, um, I'm King. I, um, I'm a Monarch. Yeah, but they are not going to attack us if we don't. Okay. So we don't need to, but, but they won't listen to me.
00:58:46
Speaker
You don't have to have them listen to you. You just don't need to attack them. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. We can be friends with them, right? That is a 19. Oh my goodness. Please daddy. Fine.
00:59:13
Speaker
Whatever you want. Whatever you want, sugar. Whatever you want, sweetie. Just, just, yeah, whatever you want. We'll be nice. Yes. Oh, okay. I'll talk to them first. It's okay. He's doing the dog half barking. And purity is like,
00:59:35
Speaker
You have more faith in your father than I do. I hope you can help him through this. Blainejoy, can you kind of, I don't know, put, cast a spell on the wagon? Just, Blainejoy, just sit there and do nothing, okay? Hey dad, make sure she doesn't do anything. No, this is gonna be interesting. She is very powerful.
01:00:07
Speaker
I'm gonna need a persuasion. I will tell you, I need a persuasion with no, I was just a flat persuasion. So just I've already persuaded them just like, no, but this is different. No, this is different persuasion. This is completely different situation. 1818. Okay.
01:00:29
Speaker
He's like, Hava, I'm sorry. I, I can't. I, I, I'm really, I blame Joy has helped us so much. She's- I didn't roll high enough? No, you didn't roll high enough.
01:00:44
Speaker
It's such a good role too. I know. He is not the smartest animal. Oh no, it's wisdom. He's not the wisest either. But he has been a king and he knows how to talk. And he knows how other people talk.
01:01:07
Speaker
Yeah, he's like I have a she's she's gonna help us. She's helped. She's helped me so much I mean, I can't she she she can cast like silence or something like that on the on the wagon and I and I won't get tempted to hear anything I just sit in here and that's it. Just keep casting it while we move even though it's you know, you just gotta I'll get out of the wagon then I'll just be like fine you do that, but I'm going I'm going to talk to them
01:01:36
Speaker
Okay. Okay. If that's what you got to do. Blaine Joy, you stay here. Stay. Blaine Joy will stay. Okay. Blaine Joy, she's like, why? I don't want to stay. Okay. So then I will just go ahead and walk ahead of the wagon or whatever. Great.
01:01:59
Speaker
great okay so you guys enter the vaulting kingdom the free nation of the vaulting kingdom it's
Hava's Pyramid Dilemma
01:02:11
Speaker
As you exit the wagon, you're already in the Golden Kingdom, you're in the Free Nation, you see... it kind of looks as though nothing has changed. The original site of different, like, magical
01:02:30
Speaker
birds flying in between has stopped though there's no like there's not enough there's not a lot of trading happening in like public uh there's more yeah there's less crowd at the same time as you enter more into the kingdom oh and as you and as you're going in i assume you're going from that side entrance like the
01:02:57
Speaker
Yeah. You do see a cue forming to going into the pyramid. Into the pyramid? Yeah. Yeah. Can we talk? Can I talk to these animals in the queue? Sure. Yeah. Okay. Hey, hi, I'm Hava. What are you guys doing? And you see? Well, because I actually haven't seen the pyramid. Well, I've seen it in the past. Oh, sure. That's true. You haven't seen it seen it in
01:03:24
Speaker
wow that's such a huge pyramid I can't believe it that's the person that you know that was from my marble I threw that I mean I gave that marble to go for how he really used it didn't it that thing is huge wait what are you guys waiting in line for what do you what's happening they're looking for the remains of its back see I think.
01:03:45
Speaker
No, you hear, you hear, you should see the other side. It is covered in blood and guts and animal parts. It's just... Oh my goodness. Yeah, it's whole, it's all... But what, what are you guys doing? Oh, oh, gross. What are you guys doing that tried, what are you trying to do?
01:04:07
Speaker
A cobalt is like, well, we're trying to stop the expansion of the sand. We think there's something in there that's making things happen. In the pyramid or in the sand? In the pyramid.
01:04:26
Speaker
But we have to get through the sand to get to the pyramid. Why are you standing in a line? Because we're taking turns to see how we can get through. And you see a polar bear. You see a polar bear like in these like...
01:04:41
Speaker
The only thing I can relate them to is like like Really really high boots like this chunk of their like so they're on all fours and they're wearing these this high of boots like Lift not lift sound
01:04:57
Speaker
That was like about four or five inches that Jesse was showing us. Just so you can see. Four or five inches of like, yeah, of like extension of a boot basically. They pounce all the way through and you can see at the end, they make it all the way across into the pyramid. And they're like one of the first ones to do that. There's another one or two.
01:05:20
Speaker
Were they dying before they made it out of the way? So as they're starting to pounce and stuff like that and trying to rush through, you can see smoke and all this decay starting to happen around them and their boot and they like wave to the queue and they wave and their boot is basically paw.
01:05:42
Speaker
It melted their sugar. Yeah, it melted the boot. And the others who didn't make it, they're just melting away. Oh, yeah. They've been either cut. So the sand also sucks them in. After a while, it just kind of brings them in down. So you have to have the right footing. And because a polar bear has such a widespread spread of a paw, they had more time to just do a quick pounce.
01:06:10
Speaker
What happened when he got to the pyramid then? So now he's going to go in it and see what's going on. And we have to wait for that one. Wow, that's crazy. You guys didn't have any birds who could fly over there?
01:06:21
Speaker
No. Oh, well, that's too bad. I feel like that would have been the way to go. You don't have to walk on the sand. But the pyramid, if you touch the outer of the pyramid, which a lot of the birds did at the beginning, and you see a lot of the... If you think of a cartoon where the bird's on a power line, and they're holding onto the power line, and the feathers and everything pops,
01:06:49
Speaker
And it's just leaving the feet. You see a lot of that on the pyramid. Oh, so they landed on the pyramid. Oh, wow. Okay. So he pointed those out. I was like, Oh, okay. Wow. That's yeah. So this sand is spreading. Is that what you said? Yeah. Yeah. It just keeps growing. And we think it's a magical thing that's happening in there. How fast is it spreading?
01:07:16
Speaker
I don't know, a centimeter or two, an inch or there. It's sand. I'm not paying attention to it. It just grows. Well, it's not like 40 feet a day or something like that, right? No, it should reach about here in like maybe a week or two.
01:07:31
Speaker
wow that's uh hey that's a pretty crazy one okay you know the other marble just like made you know like the king had bad luck you know so anyway so um wait did you say the king has bad luck well no like the uh the other king you know the polar yeah him so hey you guys um are you the stone face uh stone ball so stone stone stone right that loser okay that fair that's fair
01:08:00
Speaker
Yeah, he got a yeah, I threw a marble and got unlucky, but this one made a big pyramid. Wow. That's pretty cool. Hey, so, hey, wait, you guys have marbles. What is this? You guys have the free. You guys are the free people. Well, we're kind of free sure because we understand that we need to get into the pyramid. So there's some from the military. There's some from us. And then there's some from guys. Sorry about this pyramid. I didn't realize it was going to be so crazy. I'll try and like, you know, we're going to try to figure this out together.
01:08:30
Speaker
Why? Did you do something about this? Did you? No, I don't know. What about a marble? Oh, it's yeah, that's my friend, marble. She's like, you know, like, like a she do this. We heard that she's a peacock. She's a peacock. Her name is marble. Anyway, like probably should roll. Yeah. Roll the zip. Yeah. Yeah. When it's so bad, you started going down this.
01:09:00
Speaker
Seven. Oh, he's still one. With no bonuses, he's still like, um, I don't believe you. What? Did you do that? Uh, no, I kind of know who did, but- You know who did?
01:09:18
Speaker
not a big deal because maybe they can go through it and maybe they can stop whatever's in there if they create maybe do you think I don't know do you think well well I guess we could test it yeah I have to find him first yeah have you seen a giant portal yeah all the time all the time how long has he been here
01:09:41
Speaker
years i mean here oh then oh it's not oh wait so you that's that's his dad that's wait like he's a lot out loud i just want you to know this if you want to keep things in secret just just a small tip if you're gonna throw i'm helping you because you you throw marbles and you hit pyramids and you make pyramids you just gotta think things yeah
01:10:10
Speaker
Cool. All right. I think you've helped me a lot. Thanks so much. What was your name? Billy? Bob? No. Benny? I'm Bobby Bill. Bobby Bill? Wow. Billy Bob's my uncle. Bobby Bill. Well, it was good meeting you. I'm going to see if I can meet up with the, you know,
01:10:31
Speaker
And I'll see you later, maybe. Bye. I hope not. Okay. Bye. So we're continuing to move our way through the free people's camp. And the free people are like paying attention because there's a lot of you, but they're like, and you do say, Hey, some of them are just passing through, following you guys and making sure other, let me see, let me roll something.
01:10:56
Speaker
Yeah, and Hava's just waving and being kind. Roll three persuasions and one performance. This face is correct. Persuasion? Yes. Well, the first one was a nat one. Okay. With a total of six. Okay. And then eight. Okay. And then 18. 18, okay. And then performance 10.
01:11:25
Speaker
with the nat one and the six you said or the eight eight eight
01:11:32
Speaker
you immediately get stopped your whole caravan gets stopped as you are passing through I would say you're about halfway let's put it that way because you've been traveling and they're like okay you know what they look a little bit suspicious what's going on here and you see a I want to say marsupial but I think that's a generalization of an animal right that's not an actual animal
01:11:57
Speaker
Like a koala? Yeah, sure, another koala. A koala bee? The koala that used to be in the guard that was working, that was protecting the guard area is now in there helping. And ahead of it, almost, not completely, but it's speaking on behalf of those who are in charge of the democracy. And he says, uh, what?
01:12:26
Speaker
hey hey stop there hi i'm hava and all of them have like their arrows out and their weapons out and what why are you here we're not here to fight we're just here we're just passing through you're hava you said i'm hava hi okay we know hava is connected to king alroz yeah he's my dad uh he's the big yeah he's my dad he's the king
01:12:52
Speaker
Right. Why are you coming through this place? Do you want to take back the Golden Kingdom? No, we were just trying to meet up with the camp. I got, I'm trying to meet up with some friends. We said, I think we're going to meet in my camp. Why is there like almost 200 of you then? Because these are the rest of my people here. We're just passing through.
01:13:16
Speaker
Okay. Uh, I'm going to have to, I'm going to have to ask your people to leave this place. We are leaving through that direction. Straight through. We're going to leave that way. We're going straight through. You got to go back the way you came.
01:13:40
Speaker
Oh my gosh, I hate these people. No, Hava's not saying that, but Davida is. You know, those people who won't give in, even if you're like, really, you know? You roll the natural one in an eight. I can't.
01:13:54
Speaker
i can't give it to you but you know these people right oh yeah oh you're being this people yes okay i don't know if hava can get through this without a fight or she's gonna oh boy let's uh let's roll and we'll find out what hava decides
01:14:11
Speaker
Okay. I don't want to fight them, but, uh, Habem, I suppose. Sure. Okay. So she has decided to, uh, tell them to go back. Okay. Okay. Easy. But she's going to sneak ahead. Well, she, they did say your people, you don't have to, but your people. Okay.
01:14:38
Speaker
Because of that 18, you're able to at least you get through. Oh, okay. So I'm going to go back to the carriage and talk to my dad.
01:14:49
Speaker
and Blaine Joy and and Purity and I'm gonna tell them hey so kind of like these guys don't really want us here um I don't want to start a fight with them so like if we if we um if we don't want to like if it hit she's just gonna call back to the the koala so hey if we don't leave you're gonna attack us right I mean you could just come to prison otherwise I don't
01:15:18
Speaker
Okay, so I'm gonna turn back. Okay, so they're either gonna attack us or take us to prison if we keep going. So I think you guys should go around the long way. I'll meet you there, I guess, or... Okay, so you're going ahead.
01:15:37
Speaker
Well, I really didn't need to see Goro and they said that they were going to meet us there. And if I go around the long way, then I might miss them. Or you guys could try and take the, uh, what's the other way? Like through at the store or something. Yeah. They couldn't go that long way. Yeah. Yeah. We could. Is that long? It's it's, it's longer than this. I mean, yeah, a little harder, but well, you know what? You know what? Roll persuasion. 15.
01:16:05
Speaker
Your father, whatever you want, I don't mind. We'll do, which will go a long way, okay? Can I roll insight as to which of those two routes is the safer route? Sure. That's been a great roll. I get six.
01:16:23
Speaker
You think going through the shop is a safer route? OK. I think we'll meet up quicker if you guys go through the shop. So you should probably go through the shop. Just be careful. But yeah. Oh, don't touch the sand, because I just found out your feet melt off. So if you have any boots, thick boots, were those rubber soles, anything like that, that might be a good idea, just in case you do need to pass any sand. Blaine Joy just speaks up.
01:16:53
Speaker
um no why would we go that we have so many animals with us why we why would we go that way it's it's obvious we have to go along the wrong the long way because unless we want to start a fight here which you know we could take them we have loads of wizards why why we why hobbit what
01:17:13
Speaker
I'm trying to be respectful. I really think you should go through the shop. I don't agree with you. I think it's best that, if anything, we go around the long way. We go around the back and we go through the forest. Are you loyal to my dad? Of course. I'm not loyal to you. And you will do what he says. Dad, take him through the shop. And he's like, yeah, we're going to go to the shop. Yeah. Well, enjoy. Obviously, we're going to go through the shop. Oh, man, I'm really manipulating him.
01:17:42
Speaker
I didn't know I was gonna do this, but apparently I am now. He rolled a natural one, so he's just doing whatever you say. They're all gonna die. Oh, and if you have any flying, if you have any flyers, try and get them to fly people over the sand, just so they don't have to touch the sand. That might be a good idea. Just a little hint. Hmm. You know what, impurity's like, you know what, that could be a good, uh,
01:18:10
Speaker
bridge builder literally yeah build a bridge yeah do something like that try not to touch the sand if you can great I'm gonna talk with Blaine Joy for now so why are you able to go in first because they like me I guess
01:18:28
Speaker
And then you hear outside, yeah, we do. It's pretty cool. Yeah. See, I made a ton of friends over there. They just don't like the idea of a big army coming through. And you hear behind you, she's all right, from the cow.
01:18:48
Speaker
Barb, hey, hey, Barb. Yeah, I'll see you. I'll see you soon, hopefully. Okay, you got big hooves. Those should help you get food, Santa, if you need it. Just, you know, just be careful. That's not the only thing big I have, honey. And I would say that's good enough. So your family, your village, your kingdom goes back. You're left there. And the Koal is like, hey, how old are you?
Friends Reunited
01:19:13
Speaker
Uh, four.
01:19:15
Speaker
Oh, nevermind. And he walks away. Well, but like, I'm, you know, I'm older for like a dog, you know, like, I'm like, you know, you know, young adult teenager, you know, still young. He's got super depressed there and you're able to go past unnoticed at this point because
01:19:37
Speaker
No one cares about a single fae nine, especially now that even you realize that the fae nine is just a normality. Like people are just remembering that they exist, that magic exists. You are so young though, that you can't bring yourself to... The only thing you remember is basically a faded memory of your mother on the ship.
01:20:02
Speaker
and carousing the the shipmates and and and oh oh right you remember the biggest point i guess is that reader had you and you were brought with pond jumper to the otter village that way that's how you ended up at the that so you remember that just because of the memory returning not necessarily as like a
01:20:29
Speaker
your photos. Those are the those are the flashes right that I was saying so I remember now it's all coming clear because of the amount of times you've passed and it's kind of coming to the end of okay the like whatever was giving you these memories back
01:20:48
Speaker
is kind of completed yeah yeah okay so uh yeah i guess she'll keep going through the village so you walk through and you guys are brought to the same place and what does hava do when she first gets into king alrassa's territory do you just run to
01:21:12
Speaker
I guess I'll, I'll try and find someone official. Hey, I'll just, well, I'll, I'll probably just run around saying, Hey, I'm Hava. Hey, I'm Hava. Do you guys know where, uh, Hey, do you know where Goro is? PJ? PJ. Hello, Goro. I'm Hava. Hey, hi. Hello. And what are. So what do you guys, uh, Avalon and Goro, well, I guess Avalon, where do you take them?
01:21:37
Speaker
So now I would take them to the general who gave me the instructions to patrol because I'm still not quite sure what to make of them. And I've been with this group long enough now that I'm like, okay, there's some trust has been formed. So like on both sides, actually. So I'm like, and yeah, so I'll take them to the general's tent and basically explain the situation. Okay.
01:22:07
Speaker
Hey, so you walk in with- Well, I asked Chunk to wait outside. Okay. With the other team members? Yeah, with the rest of the team members. Okay. So you bring Goro, PJ, Cesar, Skinny, Clara, and Jackson in? Uber. And Uber. And Uber. Uber is forgetting Uber. And he just, like this giant ox, is like, what, what are you doing?
01:22:37
Speaker
I found these creatures on patrol and they're demanding an audience with Hava. Right. And then at the same exact time, Hava, you've been directed to the general's tent because he's kind of in command at this point. He's like, I don't know if you want to talk to some people, you know. Yeah. And so you basically enter at that moment.
01:23:04
Speaker
Oh my goodness, Goro, oh, PJ, Uber, oh, Caesar, hello, Clara, hello, hello, skinny, hi. Wait, is everyone in there? Yeah, everyone's in there. Oh, sorry, it was chunk that stayed out. Oh my goodness, it's so good to see my friends again. Hello, hello, hello, hello. She does the happy, you know, happy puppy, like haven't seen your owner in a long time to her to dance.
01:23:34
Speaker
You kind of hear me just under my breath drink. Not another loud one. And PJ just breaks into tears and he's like, I thought you were dead. I can't believe you're alive. Hava's going to pick him up and hug him. And he just hugs you right back. And he's like, I'm broken, Hava. I'm so broken. I, yeah, just, I'm just happy to see you.
01:24:00
Speaker
I needed to find, I need, I'm so glad I saw you again. I will be here to help you get back together. We'll see. We'll see. She's just going to keep holding him and she's going to say, gorgeous. You could do like a fist bump, sort of like, they came up with like a secret handshake or something like that before. Yeah, that's good. I like that. Like fist bump, elbow leg.
01:24:23
Speaker
up down, like, and then like, chest bump or side bump or whatever. Like a flop. With PJ. Yeah, I've still got, I've still got PJ. What is girl's reaction?
01:24:43
Speaker
I literally do the fist bump and then she's doing all these other things. I was like, I'm just happy to see her. I just smile. And she's like a kid at Christmas, isn't she? So I just smile.
01:24:57
Speaker
That and then she's gonna go yeah she'll go up to over say hi uber hi I found another beaver and he's a friend and he's like his tails his tail his his name's tail and he's got a tail like you he's you know, like a beaver. And I. Yeah. Yeah, it made me think of you so. yeah all right.
01:25:20
Speaker
Hey, Clara, hey, hi. Sorry we didn't rescue you before, like, oh. Yeah, about- You know, well, I'm glad you're okay now. Sorry we had to leave you. We had to rescue one or the other, and Baymax, I mean, Baylock seemed like a cool one to say, so- Wait a second, did you rescue Baylock before me? Hey, well, I'm just glad you're saying- What is this?
01:25:49
Speaker
There we go, off of just saying way too many things again. Everything that comes to our mind.
01:26:00
Speaker
and uh yeah and Caesar's like mate you did it you're here what where and she's gonna give a hug oh Caesar big hug and she's still got PJ in her arms too Caesar gets squished between those just gives you an amazing hug you and PJ are just like loving this hug
01:26:20
Speaker
oh my goodness i miss you i i realized after we left that we didn't have a way to talk to you so i'm so glad we found you i know he's got the thing did you hear it's reader like oh trust me i still here
01:26:37
Speaker
Oh, which by the way, everybody, so readers gone, but he went, he went with a friend, my cousin, sort of dog. And he's, you know, he's doing good, but yeah, I think he's, you know, he's on a voyage with, uh, yeah. Yeah. I agree with that. I agree with that. Yeah.
New Acquaintances and Confusion
01:26:55
Speaker
And, uh, as you're finishing this last hug, the ox is just looking at you like, why is she hugging the air?
01:27:05
Speaker
And then, and then Hava will be like, wow, it's so good to see you guys. So where, what are we doing? What's, who's, hey, who are, hi, I'm Hava. And as you say that, like the general, like stand straight. Hava, what? Hava? Yeah. Hi, I'm Hava. What's your name? Uh, uh, I'm a little bit lost for words. I didn't expect you. I heard your, your convoy had to be turned around.
01:27:34
Speaker
uh yeah but wait what's your name i didn't hear you what's your name all right my name my name uh it's it's seven seven seven seven seven seven okay one two three four five six seven seven seven okay hey seven just like trying to remember his name seven uh seven hey so what's uh what's up uh
01:27:57
Speaker
Well, I don't apparently even know these animals. They wanted to talk with you. Yeah, they're my friends. Avalon. What do you have to say? You said that this is Havah. Hi, I'm Havah. Anybody else want to tell me their name? I don't know what I'm saying. It's only Avalon and Seven. Okay, I didn't know who else was in the room. That's it.
01:28:25
Speaker
Oh, OK. Avalon, hey, I'm Hava. How are you? What's up? You're right. Yeah. OK, I guess you're right. Cool. You're like the right hand man or you're you're to the right. Like, I really miss you. I'm so glad you're here, too. So I put a put them down now.
01:28:56
Speaker
Avalon turns to seven and kind of looks a bit, kind of, what? Okay. She's the princess, we can't do anything about it. Okay, so am I dismissed? Sure. I mean, I think, you know what, no, you need to show Hava where she's supposed to stay. Okay, can we ask her to be quiet? No. Okay. We cannot. Um, okay. Where does she stay?
01:29:26
Speaker
Just to make sure I, you know, direct it to the right tent. Right. So then in that area, so there's like this massive tent that's just been built for the King and Princess Hava. And then there's a whole bunch of other tents that have been put up. It's actually built. Have I seen that yet? Yeah, it's been pretty much. It's been like the talk, like there's a lot, it's not like super nice things, but it's pretty elegant in there. Okay. Okay.
01:29:57
Speaker
Well, then your majesty, I guess.
Hava's Tent and Changes
01:30:00
Speaker
I'm just, I just have a, the Royal stuff. If you would like to follow me, I will take you to your tent. Okay. Hey, so you're a bird, right? Yes. I never, well, I don't think I ever met a bird.
01:30:21
Speaker
Well, I have met a bird before, I think, but I've never talked to one before. OK, so you you can fly, right? That's what my wings are for.
01:30:39
Speaker
that they're like walking over so now the rest of the team is also following you like Goro and we're all we're all headed over so uh chunk is on the other side so you exited the other way so he's still waiting out there with the rest of your team
01:30:57
Speaker
should like we technically I would have seen Jackson there too or Jackson is also there yeah so we'll just like assume that oh sure needed him and and learned his name but that's the main thing honestly she just said Jackson yeah
01:31:12
Speaker
And she's kind of like going to look at him when she saw him. And I'm like, because she hasn't seen it. Well, she has, you know, the taxi, but like so she can tell he's different. But she know, you know, she's she heard that there was something that happened to leave. She doesn't know yet fully, I think. Yeah. But she she knows that's not a topic to broach at the moment, I think. So she's just going to.
01:31:38
Speaker
She just said, she kind of said hi to him and then like moved to everybody else I think. Okay, yeah that's good.
Mystery of the Pyramid
01:31:43
Speaker
I like that. Just because she's going to try and be a little bit sensitive for Goro's sake I think at this point. Okay, so she's, we're walking over, she's talking to Avalon here. So you know that big pyramid over there? Yes, the one that I assume has always been there.
01:31:59
Speaker
Oh, no, it hasn't. I was gonna say yeah, but no. Well, that's the that's the pyramid that squashed the king. It seems to be a little bit magical. I was talking to the free peoples over there and they were saying that like we took
01:32:15
Speaker
The few people, doggies, animals, they, if you talk, I mean, if you walk on the sand, you melt or something like that. It's not good, but I've seen him like birds could fly, but just don't land on the pyramid. So if you do go in to see like kind of what's up and what the poison is, or you know, what the magic stuff is, if you do, you know, like if you want to go in there, just like don't touch anything.
01:32:40
Speaker
uh just fly or something like that i feel like a like a hummingbird or beetle maybe like a better like because you know they're smaller we're going to have a lot of head is this she's rambling on oh this probably isn't so much in my head it's more of a do you ever stop talking yes i like do you want me to stop talking
01:33:09
Speaker
At which point, I'm not sure if I can respond or not. Yes? No? I'm sorry, Your Majesty. It's Harvard. Yeah. Yeah, it's Harvard. What's going on with Goro? What's going on, Goro's kind of mindset? I have two things.
Political Intrigue and Safety Concerns
01:33:30
Speaker
I want to talk to Cesar, and I need to talk to Haver at some point, but Haver is just a ball of energy of talking.
01:33:38
Speaker
I just want to, like, pull Cesar aside while everyone else is, like, distracted by her. Sure, sure. Cesar's like, hey mate, what's up? So, quick sidebar here. You see all these tents? Yeah, yeah. This is an invasion party. Yeah? You didn't realize that? No, like, this is not good. Yeah. I mean, we can't do anything about it right now. We're just getting hopper. I mean, we can't. We have to work our way around this.
01:34:08
Speaker
As in, I don't think we can get Hava. What do you mean? So, she keeps being called Princess? Yeah, she's a princess. And I'm assuming the guy who's invading is her dad. Yeah, King Elrath. Right. We shouldn't be here. It'd be best for us to leave at some point. Yeah, I agree. Yeah, but we're not gonna get Hava though. What?
01:34:37
Speaker
The time can only hope I mean what I really would want to do is check out that pyramid so I think I'm gonna head that way at some point, but So we're just gonna just walk in with this invasion party and Just go see a pyramid. Well, I I mean it's as of right now. Yeah, I mean we You know King Baloch is coming. We have backup. I
01:35:06
Speaker
Okay. So I kind of just facepalm and I literally go like, right. So I killed a king and there's a king invading to take over this kingdom. And we've got another king who supposedly is good, but my judge of kings and characters have always been there all want something else more than just, Hey, how you doing? Sure. And even, and even if he's supposed to be helping us, what's stopping him from double crossing us? Well, I mean, him go way back, you know, we're.
01:35:35
Speaker
I've helped him through things. He wasn't always a king. He was a grunt. He became a king because he didn't like the ruling of King Darin. Okay. And he thought he could do a better job than King Darin. No, he decided that he couldn't stand for it and others agreed with him and he walked out and they followed him. He didn't ask for it. He never pushed for people to come with him.
01:36:02
Speaker
Okay, Goro is just not amused. Like literally there is something not good here. Yeah, I agree with you. It's definitely not good. The situation is not a good thing. You're in the middle of a battle.
01:36:15
Speaker
But my issue is here, no pun intended here, you and me in this place is not good. Yes, I completely agree. So we need to leave and like, we need to get out of here as quickly as possible. Not just because, well, just say I'm pretty positive the new guy, whoever's wanting to invade probably wants to give me a high five, but you know, I kind of killed your dad.
01:36:40
Speaker
So you're technically the next in line, so he probably wants to end you. Yes and no, maybe. I mean, I'm technically the next in line, but in reality, Hava's next in line, because the true lineage of the kingdom of the Voldemort kingdom is King Elros. King Deryn took the throne from King Elros.
01:37:04
Speaker
Well, they left that out of my studies when I was growing up. That's good. Well, that makes sense. So you just remembered that, because that came with the Day of Forget. So that's what you forgot. There we go. Is that the fact that King Darin is not the true king? And that clicks with one of the things you knew about King Darin. The secrets that you knew was that he wasn't the true king, but you never knew who was or why he said that.
01:37:30
Speaker
And now it's clicked in your brain. It's true. Well, I'm just letting you know, even though I think we need to take Haver, I think the guy, probably a dad, is probably not wanting you around. Yeah. Liability. I'm probably either going to, I'm definitely going to the pyramid like that. That's calling my name. I have to go to that.
01:37:54
Speaker
Mainly because it's probably one of my problems. I know Havam had marbles and you killed my dad with the marble. So I found the marbles first and they're supposed to be in protection. So I need to talk to Celeste and figure out why they're not in protection and why you have them first.
01:38:17
Speaker
uh but i definitely need to take care of that pyramid because otherwise this yeah it's my responsibility so i need to do that but i agree i'm not sure king elrass wants me around
01:38:29
Speaker
Mm-hmm. Okay, so Yeah, I kind of feel bad that I kind of like killed your whole like family and Yeah, you say that now you say that now You know, yeah, well, yeah you do don't you but you know You're like hmm. I'm still gonna make sure you're all right cuz I'm feeling like I'll be on the chopping block because if I've killed one king what's technically thinking for everyone else that I'll kill another king and
01:38:58
Speaker
Yeah, fair. I mean, that's basically the lineage of King Deryn. You know, he kicked one king out, so obviously he wasn't going to stand for anybody else trying to take his spot, so. That's true. Okay. Yeah. Just giving you a head FYI, because I'm not so sold on your lackeys, but I'm sure on you and PJ, but some of your other guys I'm not so sure on. Ubers here, you know.
01:39:24
Speaker
yeah but yeah yeah yeah we have a weird history yeah uber and yeah yeah the
Avalon's Doubts and Wizard Distrust
01:39:32
Speaker
rest of the team i've i have people all around there's there's no uh there's no animal contact you know i i i've i'm pretty connected so i've got it it's all right okay okay got a network i literally just think of all the ways that how king darren and other kings have assassinated other people and just going like okay cool
01:39:54
Speaker
And just like kind of just do a cheeky smile and go like, well, you know, overconfidence. It could be overconfidence. It could just... Oh, I don't say that to him. I never say that out loud. I just look at him and go like, cool. And I'm just literally looking at him going like Jesus Christ, this guy, he might hold himself, but he's too eager to help people and be friendly with people.
01:40:16
Speaker
It's fair, but it's not as friendly as Harvard. And so you guys make your way to Harvard's tent and... I'll have that conversation with Cesar then when we're going to that tent so it makes it a little bit more easy.
01:40:30
Speaker
I'll have that conversation while we- Oh, sure. Okay, so yeah, you have this conversation with Caesar in the tent. Avalon, you- I mean, you're free to go, you're free to stay. There's no one in the tent because it's just been put up and they weren't expecting Hava and her family until probably a few weeks now.
01:40:49
Speaker
Or, you know, it depends on if they do the sneaky way or not, but I think they're going to do the sneaky way. We'll see how that goes. Probably a week, but they weren't expecting them today, but it's up and there. So it's up to you. I can't hear you, Hava. I think I'll tell Avalon that, because they don't know yet that the rest of them are behind me. Oh, sure.
01:41:13
Speaker
So I'll just be, oh, by the way, wait, who's in charge here? Like, are you or was it seven or was it somebody else? Because I don't. Seven things he's in charge. We'll put it that way. Oh, OK. So you're the one in charge, really. OK, cool. No, it's seven. Oh. Kind of. What? Definitely seven. And Caesar kind of like hops into this conversation. He's like, actually, it's Hava. Well, now.
01:41:41
Speaker
Uh, hey, so I just was going to tell whoever was like kind of here, you know, like running the show at this point, you know, that, uh, you know, the King is coming soon, but like, he had to take a detour. Oh, they already know that they know that, but they didn't, we didn't tell them that I didn't know, but as you're traveling through the, uh, the three area, they were able to send a bird over. Oh, okay. And that's what I was thinking. I was like, how do they know? Like, that's why. Okay.
01:42:10
Speaker
Bird just dropped the message and then flew back. OK, so bird flying, pyramid, investigating, just think about it. Just in case we need you, you might be like, yeah, just think that could be in your future. Just prepare yourself in case you need to look into a mysterious poison pyramid. Yeah. Good to meet you, Alon. She really is.
01:42:42
Speaker
She is the boss. Yeah, it's not so much questioning her status as questioning her brains. Hey, we all have judgments. No problem with that. It's all good. Hava's great. This is all Caesar. And so, yeah, it's up to you, Avalon, if you want to just stick around or not, I guess. There's no dismissal. Well, yeah, I've not been officially dismissed, so I wouldn't necessarily just leave.
01:43:13
Speaker
Is there anything else your heart have? Is there anything else you require of me? No, you have stuff you need to do. We'll just hang out here. Let me know if you have any
01:43:39
Speaker
Updates on the pyramid, I'll keep in contact. I talked her to zero, I mean, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, seven soon. And just in case, yeah, we'll see you later, okay? Okay, I will probably, I guess, have some questions, but I'm aware that a lot of this, we don't like questions. Oh, questions are great, love questions. I mean, what is your favorite color?
01:44:08
Speaker
Oh, by the way, Hava, it's not a wizard. Wizard. What? I said that. I'm a wizard. Who said that? Avalon. Avalon's not a wizard. Yeah. There's Caesar. Caesar's. Oh, that's good. Because wizards are kind of like, you know, like, Blaine Joy. You know, never know what they're going to do. Frog people. She was a hag.
01:44:34
Speaker
You don't like wizards either? Wizards, uh, wizz blur? Yeah. Like, you know, so whatever. It wasn't a wizard. Squirrel, squirrel, squirrel was a squirrel, was a copper hands. Squirrel was a wizard. Okay. Yeah, it's true. It's true. Okay. So I, I sense, uh,
01:45:03
Speaker
certain animosity towards wizards. And squirrels, too. Yeah, I can understand the animosity towards squirrels. If you have any squirrels, you can send them over. I'll show them. I'll show them. That might not be the wisest. OK, well, yeah, it's sad. Yeah, with questions, questions you have. Yes. If you don't like wizards, why are you amongst so many?
01:45:31
Speaker
Uh, those are my dad's wizards and, uh, I don't know why she went into it weird. Those are my dad's friends. I kind of like told them, like, keep those wizards and check. I mean, wizards and wiz, blurs, whatever they're called. Yeah. If he doesn't keep it in check, we'll take them out. Uh, but you know, in a nice way, like take their ones away. No more wizards. Just, you know, watch yourself.
01:46:00
Speaker
If you're a wizard, you're not a wizard. That's a good thing. Yes, but people here think I am a wizard. And I would kind of like to keep it that way. But the wizards killed my people. Yes, but I feel like if the wizards find out I'm not a wizard, I might share that fate. I mean, I got your back. I got your back, Avalon.
01:46:26
Speaker
you do. It means she's going to speak out for you. Want me to speak out right now? Stay quiet. Okay. All right. Cool. Any other questions? So Avalon's kind of a little bit confused at the moment because in some way, a lot of the wizards that he's been around haven't necessarily been terrible people. So a lot of them and the whole policy of not killing people unless they have to,
01:46:56
Speaker
It's kind of been slowly over time easing and kind of like, okay, so maybe they are just helping this King Eros take his rightful place. And therefore maybe this is the right side to be on. And you've got all these, but then at the same time, the whole induction sequence of so much death. Like, yeah. So Avalon's a little bit confused, but
01:47:27
Speaker
is kind of feeling a little bit, I guess, a little bit more relaxed being around, even though Haver's really loud and for like a better description, obnoxious.
Goro's Gift and Emotional Reflections
01:47:40
Speaker
Like Avalon is kind of like, I feel kind of a bit safer around Haver than any of the other F9 that he's met so far, at least. Like it doesn't feel like
01:47:55
Speaker
Even though Haben now has figured or has been told that I'm not a wizard, Aglons basically doesn't feel threatened in that. Cool. I like that. Great.
01:48:06
Speaker
and now just what's going through his head so yeah sure so you kind of take take a step back and you're kind of pondering that and then Goro you wanted to take off the side who are yours okay node to GM node to GM right now to take notes and for davita slash character sheet here so Goro takes out a really shiny coin and gives it and then
01:48:29
Speaker
shows it to Hava and a look of sadness comes across like Goro's face and he can just see the pure happiness in Hava's face and he and he just immediately just goes Leaf would have wanted you to have this. So so is it true Leaf he he doesn't
01:48:51
Speaker
But I wanted to ask you, but what happened? I mean, this is super shiny. Was this his coin? So this was his coin and part of his personal belongings. And I know that he would want you to have this. Wow. Yeah. So the cool thing about this, now breaking complete scene characters, is that's a lucky coin. So what does a lucky coin do, Jess?
01:49:20
Speaker
uh... lucky coin well it's kinda like uh... it gives you a re-roll basically of like anything not like you can use it all day every day but like you can use it you can use it two times in a day and you would basically flip it and the flipping doesn't do anything but activate it or you can flip it to your paw or whatever uh... basically it just allows you to have a re-roll of
01:49:50
Speaker
any kind of roll, basically. That's cool. And they can use it two times a day. Two times a day. Two times a long rest. Is it always work or only if it's like heads? No, it always works. There's no it's a lucky coin. You can literally roll it through your knuckles or whatever and it'll just grant you a reroll. Yeah, it's just about utilizing it in some manner. Yeah, that's cool. Wow. Goro, thank you. Are you like?
01:50:19
Speaker
able to talk about like what happened or it's just. Yeah, it's, it's, yeah, I've come to peace with it, but we went to see Darren. Things went sideways. Darren was killing Leaf. Oh man. And in the last act of, I don't know, is if it's amazingness or however, just, he told me to throw the pyramid. Wow.
01:50:45
Speaker
And like you were able to dodge the, dodge it, but. Dodge it. Heck no. Uber and me were pretty much dead. We, we, we, we were jacked. We had to, we had to go into hiding for like months. Cause we were that banged up and people still kind of want me dead. Like.
01:51:09
Speaker
anyone who knows who I am anyway like now it's just worse so it's it's fun being back here let's just say it's like a lot of bad memories here I'm sorry Goro thanks for coming to get me though I I really appreciate it uh like wow you're just like such a good friend and oh I was gonna tell you that um I heard the other free people's talking um that there there's another portal around here
01:51:36
Speaker
I think it might be your dad. I think he might be leading the other army. Just, um, just thought I'd warn you. Yeah. Just so you know, he didn't get squished. I don't think, no, I know. I know my dad wants me. I think I've come to peace with that too. And I think that's how you guys are going to get to the pyramid and how I'm going to get that solution solved.
01:52:03
Speaker
Yeah. Well, I'm here for you, Goro. Anything, anytime. Yeah. Okay. So, so in an act of un-Goro-like, he just says, I'll let you have one. Isn't she going to go and give him a hug? Yeah, give him a big hug. And that is where we're going to end today.
