What's up, Wanderers? This is your DM Jackie.
SPEAKER_07It's your favorite elf bard, Wagnu. Shoes we here.
SPEAKER_05Your sorcerer, Black Sky, and your Ranger Lee. Uh, DM is kind of sick today. I don't know if you guys can tell, but um, you might pick it up during the session. So instead of me recapping, we're gonna have our our lovely bard take the wheel.
SPEAKER_07Yes, thank you very much. Give me a chance to flex my voice. My beautiful bard voice. No, but bear with me, um, as this is my first time getting prepared. Wanderers. Last time, you all recover a full night's rest after the welcoming feast in Jernor. Li, you awoken first, to the smell of bread, leaving you to Ravain's home. There you discover that he had a weird contraption that allowed him to heat up dough and make bread. The rest of the party followed, though confused as to how Ravain was finding all of these oddities. Yu all decided to go look for Fenwin. Shusui turned to ask the first elf he saw, a weary elf with bushy black hair, which quickly turned into a race with him face palming into the ground. Nonetheless, you've arrived at the home of Fenwin. Inside, he was nowhere to be found. Instead, you're greeted by the ashen-haired elven woman, Theririan, who mentioned that Fenwin was away in important matters. Even more important, the status of the fire elemental artifact. After conversing, she allowed you to accompany her on the hunt. The target? An MDR. An awkward silence falls through during the walk before Shusui broke it by making a wager with Therian. Lee stealthed away on his own and found violet essence around the trees. Wagnu and Skye followed, with the latter provoking Therian when he could. Shusui eventually used his experience as a hunter, which he learned from his uncle, to quickly find the Mdeer, who peacefully lied down against the tree. Wagnu used the tech magic to see the golden threads that Therian was following, leading to the deer as well. Sky, ever so curious, decided to cast Fireball on a nearby tree as an experiment. Only for it to react- to react. From the tree, a thick purple aura seeped out and corrupted Dragon emerged. Another quickly followed, and something disastrous happened. A colossal, corrupted M-deer joined the fray. And that sequence was followed The sequence that followed was rough, but we all pulled through, using our skills efficiently. As the colossal MDer fell, Thirin whispered something under her breath, guiding its soul elsewhere. She then explained that something was preventing the souls of the animals here from not cross properly. And that's why, in order to help them, the elves of Jernor have begun hunting. Not just as a source of survival, but purification. You later learn that the Spirit Forest has darkened and its creatures are slowly corrupting. Though the MDR was a first. On your way back to Juror, Diryan apologized to all of you for being so on guard and asked that you not share anything that happened with anyone. She went in ahead to let Fenwin know of your coming as well as all discussed among yourselves. As more uh excuse me, as well as you all discussed among yourselves. With the Sun Lord, you arrived back at the meeting place. Lee was asked to go in alone, in which you saw a tired Fenwin coming out from a trance. He looks up to you and spoke the words Welcome back to the Spirit World.
SPEAKER_05I am going to need Black Sky, Wagnu, and Shusui to deafen yourself, and I'll signal in the chat for you to come back.
SPEAKER_07Ooh, okay.
SPEAKER_05Well not really the spirit world. Two centuries is a long silence, thee. I'm not sure where to begin. I guess I'll start with the truth. You see, as he slowly picks himself up, and he walks slowly towards you. You've seen the world beyond this forest now. That means I can speak to you differently than I can to the others. His eyes lower, almost as if he's looking at you to make sure you're actually there. I did not expect to see you again. Yet, here you are. The timing could not be stranger. I'm sure you've realized this now, but there are things about you, Ping, that most who live here are never meant to understand. When you left, I thought the forest had simply lost a traveler. That I had simply lost a friend.
SPEAKER_02How do you feel, Lee? How does Drennor feel to you? It feels different.
SPEAKER_06I mean, according to you, 200 years have gone by and I've only been gone twenty. It doesn't really make sense to me.
SPEAKER_05It's the nature of Yuping. He starts to kind of just kind of circle around you a little bit. Yuping is not a world in the way the material plane is. It is a threshold. This place exists between realms. Not fully spirit.
SPEAKER_02Not fully material. Time moves different here.
SPEAKER_05Do you understand now? The people here live their lives believing this is simply their home. For most, that belief is necessary. He sees your your look. He looks at you and notices your face. Um, what's the face you're giving him at the moment as he's trying to explain what Yuping is to you?
SPEAKER_06Um, I think it's very serious at the moment. He's Lee's definitely like just trying to take it all in and kind of figure it out, but you know, Lee always has a is always trying to be aware of what's going on around him, so he's always like focused at the same time.
SPEAKER_05Okay, what's your passive perception? Oh actually, uh, what's your passive insight? Passive insight is 13. 13. Go ahead and give me insight check.
SPEAKER_06Okay. That is uh 17 plus 3, 30 20.
SPEAKER_05Nice. Um, you have not seen Fenwin in 20 years, but he seems to be telling you the way he's relaying this message to these this fact to you, this message to you. Um, it seems as if it's something he's been holding for a very long time. And he finally stops again right in front of you, not circling around you anymore. The towns you see, the villages that you see here, they are reflections. Memories of places that once existed long ago. If enough people here began questioning their own nature, the balance of this plane could unravel. Lee, I've been holding on to this for a very long time.
SPEAKER_02You've no idea. You've no idea how it makes me feel to finally be able to tell someone.
SPEAKER_06I was worried when I found out you were keeping secrets from the villagers, but now it makes sense.
SPEAKER_02You seem as if you had something to ask. What did you want to say?
SPEAKER_06Uh Lee kinda just looks at him, so he's What's what's going on with these creatures? We ran into this mutated Imdeer in the woods.
SPEAKER_05Yes. Darien told me. Did she happen to see beyond the forest?
SPEAKER_06Uh I don't think so.
SPEAKER_05The spirit tree. It's been corrupted.
SPEAKER_02Darkened.
SPEAKER_05There's another truth, Lee. The spirit tree is not merely sacred. Our whole lives. We've been taught that the spirit tree was like a god. But it's not. It is structural. It anchors this plane and keeps the boundary between realm stable. When the tree falters, the balance of Yuping falters with it. Just like what you saw with the Indir. If it collapses completely, the barrier between spirit and material may fracture. And now he rubs his chin, goes to his head, scratches it. And I do not know what crosses that fracture first. Darien told me that that group you're traveling with, that they may know.
SPEAKER_02She said something about the Black Dawn. Do you know?
SPEAKER_06It seems they're after some people. Um They're searching for the artifacts, and I'll pull out the wind artifact. His eyes open wide. So you have They trusted me with one. I don't know exactly all the details of their goals. They haven't shared everything with me, but at this at this moment we have the same target. The leader of the Black Dawn, from my understanding, is the one that killed Kenneth. Do you trust them? For now.
SPEAKER_05I said before. That the spirit tree was weakening. It's actually, in fact, dying.
SPEAKER_06Is there anything we can do?
SPEAKER_05As you say that he comes near your elemental artifact, he puts his hand out, almost touching it. The elemental artifacts. They are splinters of the tree's original instance. With them, we may be able to rekindle what is fading. Although, they're not a cure. But they may give the tree strength to endure. It's our only hope.
SPEAKER_06Well, I think you better discuss with those three then.
SPEAKER_02Do you only have one? Do they have the other ones?
SPEAKER_06I believe they have two and they have come to Drennor looking for the fourth. I see.
SPEAKER_05Do you have anything you want to ask of me? If not, we can bring them in.
SPEAKER_06I just want to say I'm sorry. Sorry it took me so long to return.
SPEAKER_05He looks at you with a face of relief. It's okay, old friend. Because you've returned at the moment that Yu Ping may need you most. I know it's a lot to take in. I've been holding on to this for hundreds of years. And now I'm afraid you have to carry the same burden as well. I'm the one who's sorry.
SPEAKER_06We'll carry the burden together.
SPEAKER_05And he puts a hand on your shoulder.
SPEAKER_06Before they enter um the board, he's an elf. He's looking for his hometown. He doesn't remember where he's from.
SPEAKER_05I see. I may have answers, but there are no guarantees. Also, Lee, I. If you don't mind, let's keep some of the things we've talked about a secret for now.
SPEAKER_06I understand.
SPEAKER_05Especially the about the truth about Yuping.
SPEAKER_06I'll just nod.
SPEAKER_05See as he waves to someone behind him. And that person suddenly comes to go, turns around to go and gather the rest of the crew. Wagnu, Sky and Shusui, you see um a very generic looking elf who runs to the door where you're at with Thurian. Okay, uh I think uh Finwin is ready for you all now.
SPEAKER_08Blee is ready with Finwin at this point, right? Yep. And is Therion still a fuss? It's Therian and the generic elf, right?
SPEAKER_05Uh yeah, Therian and the generic elf. And the elf with no no features that you should not care about. Gotcha.
SPEAKER_00Uh yeah. Certainly they won't be important.
SPEAKER_07That's my goat. Awesome. Okay, I'm ready to meet. I'm ready to go. Yeah. And meet with her.
SPEAKER_08Um yeah, I don't think I have anything else. Um I'm good too.
SPEAKER_05Okay, um, I'll be out here to just just be out here. Have fun. And Darien turns as you all head to the door, and she closes the door behind you. When you get in there, you find um Lee and Finwen. His hand, Finnwin's hand on Lee's shoulder. He sees you all coming towards him. Wanderers! I know you've been trying to get an audience with me. Sorry it took so long.
SPEAKER_07No, we're just happy to finally be able to meet you.
SPEAKER_05I believe we met each other yesterday at the feast.
SPEAKER_07Now in more private sectors.
SPEAKER_05So, Lee here told me that you are in search of the fire artifact. Correct?
SPEAKER_07Yeah. That's right.
SPEAKER_02Okay, well, don't stand there. Come over here. Sit.
SPEAKER_07I look at Sky and Shusui, kind of like give them a quick glance, a cautionary glance, and then I'll just nod and okay, take a seat. I'll take a seat too.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I'll take a seat.
SPEAKER_05He sits in the middle as you all sit around him. So before I tell you where to find the fire elemental artifact, just let me hear your story. What is your quest exactly? Looks towards Lee. I see that my friend here has the wind artifact on him. And he mentioned that two of you also carry the others.
SPEAKER_07I'll look around to Lee in Black Sky and Shisui kind of nervously before I reach for the water artifact, and then I I show him. Yeah. Li was not lying.
SPEAKER_05And where is the other one?
SPEAKER_00It's it's with me. I'm uh I'm holding on to it.
SPEAKER_05And why are you searching for them again?
SPEAKER_07What what do you know about these artifacts?
SPEAKER_05Look, I I will be glad to answer any questions you have, of course. But like I said, I'd like to hear from you. After all, you're searching for things that are quite important in Yuping. I want to know who gave you this task and why you are doing it.
SPEAKER_07I could only tell you, but I I couldn't prove it to you. So you'd have to take my word, but we're searching for these artifacts because this spirit tree is guiding us towards them. I can't prove that to you in any way, but I can guarantee you that there are other people looking for these artifacts as well. And they're we prefer that they be in our hands.
SPEAKER_05It looks over to Sky and Shusui. Is what is what he says correct.
SPEAKER_08I mean you don't have to believe me, but I guess yeah, yeah. What everything he said is true. If anyone here, you should believe him.
SPEAKER_00I understand we're not exactly forthcoming with our uh our history, but I I assure you, everything we're doing is for well to keep things the natural order going.
SPEAKER_05You see, as he um he turns to Lee, uh gives Lee like an awkward look.
SPEAKER_02You guys are too serious. Come on.
SPEAKER_05Look, I'm not here to judge you. I just wanted to hear it from your own your own mouth, that's all. I told Lee a little bit about the artifacts. Um, if he'd like to share it with you, after all he did say he trusted you all. Feel free, Lee.
SPEAKER_06Take it away. Finwin has told me that the artifacts are sort of pieces of the spirit tree. Um. The spirit tree is dying. And Finwin says returning the artifacts could help it endure longer.
SPEAKER_05Precisely, but if you've already been wondering this far through you being, I'm sure you you know that already. Do you not?
SPEAKER_07Yeah, we we've seen some in some instances. Nothing enough to be absolutely sure, but yeah, things have been different.
SPEAKER_05Is indeed the truth. The spirit tree is dying. I'm sure you saw beyond the forest where you fought the Mdir with Darien. The Spirit Forest. It's covered in darkness. Darien said you you've encountered another group, known as the Black Dawn, and that they may be the culprits of this this corruption, correct?
SPEAKER_07Yeah, that's correct.
SPEAKER_05One of the leaders of that of that group is a sibling of someone here.
SPEAKER_08Yeah. Yeah, that that sounds about right.
SPEAKER_05Hmm. Then I guess you have to go find the fire artifact then. And you already seen where it may be. And where would that be? The fire artifact is deep in the spirit forest. As you can see, uh, the corruption has gotten out of control. So it's it'll be very dangerous to go in there.
SPEAKER_08The spirit forest, as in the one we came back from?
SPEAKER_05Precisely. Well, beyond that. You guys were near the the entrance, but you weren't exactly in there yet.
SPEAKER_07Okay, g getting in there doesn't seem like to me it didn't sound like something that's just easy and breezy to do, so could you tell us more about how to get there? Or what we might need?
SPEAKER_05I've set up a barrier to protect Drennor from the corrupted creatures. I could easily drop it and you'd be able to enter it. Now, once you go through, though, I can't guarantee your safety, so coming out might be a different matter.
SPEAKER_07What do you mean by that?
SPEAKER_05You saw it firsthand. The corrupted The Indir, the Dryad. That was just the beginning. And the Spirit Forest. There will be more of those.
SPEAKER_07I know it might not look like it, but we can handle ourselves pretty well. I think we'll be able to take care of those things no problem.
SPEAKER_05You see as he turns to Lee again. At this point, it looks kinda like, you know, like when two friends, um, like one friend has turned to the other friend for like um some kind of like backup, and then he just gets it like a look. And he just goes, Haha, this is the guy you're talking about, Lee. This this bard. I like your guts, kid.
SPEAKER_07Thanks. It's easy to have guts when you got allies like these.
SPEAKER_05He rubs his chin. Well, do you have any more questions that I may have answers to?
SPEAKER_08You say you say the fire artifact is in the spirit force, but you didn't specifically tell us where. How would we be able to locate the artifact?
SPEAKER_05How are you able to locate the other artifacts this whole time?
SPEAKER_08I mean, I wouldn't necessarily say we found it, but I guess it's just more that we're in the right place at the right time.
SPEAKER_05At this point, um everyone's artifacts starts to hum a little bit. The artifacts all share the same essence. When they're near they react to each other. Finding the fire artifact will be an easy feat. Because they'll always look for their missing piece. Of course, uh obtaining it from the fire guardian might be a different matter, but after hearing about your your feat against the Endir, I'm sure you you'd have no problem, right?
SPEAKER_07Yeah, I mean, we're happy to hear your confidence in us against a guardian. Which we are. But I'm also curious, what do we do once we get the artifact?
SPEAKER_05Once you retrieve the final artifact, you'd have to travel to where the spirit tree is. Like Lee said earlier, we're all hoping that the artifact may somehow jumpstart the tree and give it its power back, its energy. But then again, this is all just a theory. Even I'm not sure.
SPEAKER_07Well, there's one thing that this group in particular is good at, it's handling things that we're not sure about. So if that's what we need to do to protect this forest, we'll find the fire artifact.
SPEAKER_02Good. Keep that confidence.
SPEAKER_05I wanna give you a little, let's say, uh, a pretest of some sort. I'm sure you'll pass with flying colors.
SPEAKER_07Later tonight.
SPEAKER_08Yeah. Okay. I have no objections.
SPEAKER_00Great. That'll give us uh time to restock, resupply.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_05Of course, and I'll also. I'll also put some things together. After all, it won't be uh an easy mission.
SPEAKER_07Thanks. We'll take all the help we can get.
SPEAKER_05He stands up from his spot. Uh he does like a little stretch in both arms just up in the sky. Well, it's a nice evening. Go and see the stars or something. As he starts to walk out where you had entered from. Uh winks a little bit at um the four of you. Then leaves. You guys are now free to do whatever you want.
SPEAKER_07Cool. And what's the like approximate time, like time of day it is right now?
SPEAKER_05It's a little it's probably like late afternoon, so you're looking at about like four or five p.m. right now.
SPEAKER_07Cool. Alright, I I would like to go to like um to restock on some supplies, yeah. I'd be down for that.
SPEAKER_05You guys are free to separate, you guys are free to go together. Um, you are you guys all going together?
SPEAKER_06Yeah, I'll go. Yeah.
SPEAKER_07I I'll go with um Shusui in particular. I want to be enough. I want to be with him so that we can converse at least.
SPEAKER_05Okay. Um what about Sky and Lee? How are you guys going? Are you guys just kinda tagging along or are you guys going ahead?
SPEAKER_08Uh I'll tag along for now. Yeah, I'll tag along as well.
SPEAKER_05Okay. So you see as Shusui and Wagnu are up a up ahead, uh a couple of feet in front of you guys, and you guys are just kinda like following from behind.
SPEAKER_07Shusui, you and I are the only ones who have kind of experience with our artifacts. You know?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, that's uh I mean, yeah. That is the case.
SPEAKER_07I think once we find this final piece uh someone's gonna have to or I don't know. I don't know exactly what's gonna happen, but I've had the spirit chi in me before, and it's it's a power that's incredible but also overwhelming. Do you think you'd want to take the artifacts if if need be?
SPEAKER_00Uh I mean if it comes down, I suppose. Not a major problem. But uh we would have to find red waves and deal with him first.
SPEAKER_07Right. I'm only asking because I don't want it to I don't want them to fall into the wrong hands. Even even if it were like you know, someone like Finwin, per se.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I I understand. Um yeah. If it comes down to it, I'd I'll take care of it.
SPEAKER_07Awesome. I'm glad we have this understanding. Now let's go look for some supplies. Yep.
SPEAKER_00Great to grab some more uh some more potions.
SPEAKER_05As you guys start just wandering around, um, you stop by and ask like some of the elves around here, you know, where you could find potions of some sort, uh where you can stock up with supplies. Um they point you towards back towards the first place where you had been asked to go in, kind of stay there to wait. It was the same building that um they also held the feast there. They told you that there's a a cleric of some sort there who goes by the name of Nafara, who may or may not have things that you require. As you all head there, unless anyone else wants to detour. Shusui or Wagnu, who would be the first to go through the door?
SPEAKER_07Probably Shisui.
SPEAKER_00Probably let him go first just in case I probably the usual formation in case of danger.
SPEAKER_05Shusui, as you're walking, uh before you reach the door, uh give me let's backtrack a little bit. Give me a perception check. It's like you're crossing the bridge and you're about to reach the door.
SPEAKER_00Uh, that is a 21.
SPEAKER_0521, nice. Um, as you're as you're crossing the bridge to where this this lady by the name of Nafara may be. At the corner of your eye, you see um you see someone familiar who looks like he's trying to sneak away. Almost like a kid who doesn't want to get in trouble. Um, you see Ravin, who's carrying like a small stature over his shoulder. He you see as he pauses, look around quickly, and then grins deeply and just starts walking off.
SPEAKER_00I just uh I call out to him, I go, Ravin, what are you doing here? Are you on a supply run?
SPEAKER_05He acts like he doesn't hear you and he just keeps going. And he at this point he's like traveling, uh moving farther and farther away from you.
SPEAKER_00Huh, that's weird. Guess he didn't hear.
SPEAKER_05But as you do as you call out to him, um, the rest of your crew, they do turn and you also you all also see him as he as he m just skittles away.
SPEAKER_07What was that all about? Shizui.
SPEAKER_00I don't know. That's uh that's kinda weird. Uh maybe Therian had that talk to him about uh sneaking out. But uh, I don't know. We'll check up on him later, I guess. Make sure he's staying safe.
SPEAKER_08Actually, now that um we've seen Rabbain, I think I'm gonna head over and uh go trade with him.
SPEAKER_05Okay. As Sky walks over towards Rabbain Shizui, you've open the door, and inside, you see, um, on the table there, you see the game of the Indir that you had you all had hunted earlier. You see as it's already being kind of like worked on, butchered up, and starts to be cooked by some of the elves, elves there. You see um a lady there who seems to be cleaning up still from from the party last night. Her mahogany hair falls over her shoulders as she turns around and her crystal blue eyes meet yours and then vlog news. Oh. Hello.
SPEAKER_00Hello there. Uh we're looking for uh Nafara. We were uh hoping to get some supplies.
SPEAKER_05Uh yeah, Nafara, that's me.
SPEAKER_04Oh, you guys must be the travelers, aren't you?
SPEAKER_00Yep. That's uh that's the M there I shot uh just a while ago. Nice to see it's being uh properly butchered and used.
SPEAKER_05Wow. You shot this?
SPEAKER_00Oh yeah, it was a great shot.
SPEAKER_05Okay, but did you do the prayer?
SPEAKER_00Uh I would that was uh left to the others. I'm not sure if it was uh Tharian or uh Lee who did it, but yeah.
SPEAKER_05Okay. If Therion was there, then she probably did it. Anyways, uh yes, I am Nafara. Um so why are you seeking me out? And who are you guys again? I I know you're the travelers, but what are your names exactly? See, there's three of you there, and um she turns and looks at you, Wagnu, and then she kinda like just peeks over and sees Lee behind the both of you.
SPEAKER_07I'm Wagnu. Yeah. Famous bard. Um you might have heard my name around these parts. Um I'm pretty widely known for my talented musical abilities. Um yeah, my name's Wagnu.
SPEAKER_00I'm Shusui. I'm kinda just uh well let's just say I'm a traveler for now. That's probably the easiest way to sum it up.
SPEAKER_05And what about you? She's still like taking over, like an Ali.
SPEAKER_06I'll just kinda lift my hand up to wave and I'm Lee. Oh, okay.
SPEAKER_05Very cool.
SPEAKER_04So, how can Nafara help you all?
SPEAKER_07Oh, we're about to embark on a a pretty dangerous journey. So we just wanted to re-up on some supplies and see what you had to offer.
SPEAKER_05Of course, uh, let's see. And you see as she kind of just goes around, uh, brings out like a bag. I got some potions here. Is that what you need? Love potions. Anything specific you're looking for? I might have it, but I can't, you know, can't guarantee. If it's potion, I probably have it.
SPEAKER_07How much for a potion?
SPEAKER_05Hmm. Let me see. Let me look at you real fast. You know, for you, maybe like 25 gold pieces of potion.
SPEAKER_07So it'd be different if it weren't me.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, might be a little different.
SPEAKER_07Okay. 25 for one potion. Alright, give me two of those.
SPEAKER_05Alrighty. She goes into her bag, takes out two uh potion of healing. Hands over to you. That'll be 50 gold pieces.
SPEAKER_07Here you are. And then I'll hand her the 50 gold pieces.
SPEAKER_05I mean, is there anything else you're looking for aside from potions?
SPEAKER_07What kind of weapons do you have?
SPEAKER_05Uh okay, that that I don't specialize in. I can't help you with that.
SPEAKER_07Oh, I mean.
SPEAKER_05I'm more of a like a magical person, you know, like uh potions, uh potions of this, potions of that. Do you have any scrolls? No, let me see. Let me check real fast. Uh and she pulls out like a few scrolls. Okay, so to be honest, I'm I'm still like a a newbie when it comes to this stuff, but I did I did manage to make a few scrolls. Uh she takes out four of them, lays it on like the ground there. But there's a catch to it.
SPEAKER_07Wha a catch? Okay. What's the catch?
SPEAKER_05It's and she winces a little bit. Uh they're if you use them, they're all like random spells. I don't know what what you'll get. I guess it's pretty cool, right?
SPEAKER_07Yeah. That's exactly what I want when I'm using a scroll. A random spell. How much are those?
SPEAKER_01Ooh.
SPEAKER_05Okay, let's see. You know, for you? And she looks at you again. Hmm. I do a scroll for 100 gold pieces. 100? That's pretty cheap, I'd say so.
SPEAKER_07Alright, what about what about 45 pieces of gold and I give you back one of these potions? Which your value was worth 50. Or 25, sorry.
SPEAKER_05Okay, how about this? And she like kinda like doubles down. Uh she looks at you with like her eyes open, she doubles down on and puts her hand on the ground. How about 45 gold pieces and you help me clean up? Clean up? Ah gosh. And she just kinda looks around the room. You see all this from the party last night?
SPEAKER_07I see, I see. I saw you dancing.
SPEAKER_05I saw you partying.
SPEAKER_07That's true.
SPEAKER_05So all I have to do is help you clean up. Well, and the 45 gold pieces.
SPEAKER_00I I uh cut in a little bit. I go, uh well, since I uh killed that M deer right there. Mind if we get a little bit of a discount? I am kinda hating everyone.
SPEAKER_07That's true.
SPEAKER_05I saw him kill it. Wait, did you not learn anything from Darien at all? We don't even need to eat these this M deer.
SPEAKER_00But you are.
SPEAKER_05Oh yeah, because we're we're not gonna waste it. That'd be rude.
SPEAKER_00Well, if you guys didn't want it, I could have kept it. I could have uh skinned it, could have, you know, cured the hide, turned the meat into rations. No one even offered it to me. It was just taken after I shot it.
SPEAKER_05Ah, that sounds like Durian. Okay, 40 gold pieces.
SPEAKER_07Now you're speaking my language.
SPEAKER_05Plus the help with the cleaning.
SPEAKER_07Oh.
SPEAKER_05You too. You're helping now.
SPEAKER_07Fine. I'll turn over to Lee and Black Sky.
SPEAKER_05Sky's not with you.
SPEAKER_07Oh shoot, sorry. Lee's what they did. Lee. Let me borrow 100 gold. I swear. I'll I'll give it back to you later. That's quite a lot of money to lend someone. Nah, you always knew how to talk to me. Let me borrow 45 gold. I promise I'll return this later.
SPEAKER_06As long as you pay me back double.
SPEAKER_07Hmm, yes, double. I can do double.
SPEAKER_05Okay, I'll give you the gold. Yeah, the guy with 500 gold pieces is not here.
SPEAKER_00Oh man. I'm looking at my wallet. I'm like 13 gold. I'm like, I don't even know what happened. I'm actually poor.
SPEAKER_07Alright, and then I'll go back to Nefara. Alright, Nefara, I'm willing to take your offer for one of those scrolls, and I'll help you clean up.
SPEAKER_05And she peeks over behind you. Sees Lee. Ah, so that's his gold. You know, for him, I Okay. Fine. Here, take this back. And she takes your gold, gives you back like 20 pieces of gold. Cause it's his gold. But you're still helping me clean. Here, take the scroll.
SPEAKER_07Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
SPEAKER_04Fine, I'll give you two. And she gives you another one.
SPEAKER_07That's it.
unknownThank you. Awesome.
SPEAKER_07Alright, so what needs cleaning?
SPEAKER_05Okay, so you see everything here. Um We might have another feast. I don't know how they're gonna do like what they're gonna do with this ND are here. But let's just start with the dishes. Do you know how to wash dishes?
SPEAKER_07Uh yeah, yeah, definitely. Okay.
SPEAKER_05And you, the uh Shusui with the swords. Um, I guess you can carry these these crates over there. Just kinda like stack them up.
SPEAKER_01Alright.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, she kind of picks her scrolls from the ground. Um runs over to Lee.
SPEAKER_06Uh, and what do you want to do? Uh, where can I find weapons?
SPEAKER_04Um, let me see. I'm trying to think.
SPEAKER_05I mean, I guess Darien might have some stuff, but we don't really have like a weapon store or anything. We're kind of we're kind of passive here, you know.
SPEAKER_06Well, I think I'll go speak with Darien then, thank you. No, no. Head out and on my way out of it. Enjoy cleaning, you two. You sure you don't want to stay and help?
SPEAKER_04It's very fun.
SPEAKER_05Oh, I'm alright. You see how she grabs like an apple on the table, um, toss it towards you. I'll try and catch it. Um, you easily catch it. Well, you know what they say an apple a day keeps the clerics away. See ya! Alrighty guys, let's get to it. And she turns towards Shrewsley and Wagnu, and then all you the three of you just start going at it. Um, is there a specific way you guys want to describe how you're cleaning or just kind of helping around?
SPEAKER_07Yeah, I cast mage hand, and I'm using the mage hand to help me wash the dishes, you know? I'm just washing it with the water, and then mage hand is drying it with a rag. It's a fluid system. Nice.
SPEAKER_00I mean, I'm just removing box. So I'm just gonna move them like normal.
SPEAKER_05What is normal? Moving them up, walking over with your legs. You can still pull them up, so I'm gonna have to make a roll for that.
SPEAKER_00Roll for it.
SPEAKER_05Okay, perfect. To move on over to Sky. Sky, you're following Ravain. Um, you see that he's trying to be secretive. Probably like 20 feet in front of you, and you see as he goes towards the lift where you had to come up from. Are you approaching him now or are you just gonna wait and see what happens?
SPEAKER_08Oh gosh. Oh, if I follow him, I'm does does he notice me at all?
SPEAKER_05He does not notice you, but he's like you see him snickering, he's like happy, like he's he's happy about where he's gonna go to.
SPEAKER_08Okay, I will approach him.
SPEAKER_05As you approach him, uh he turns around, jerks a little bit.
SPEAKER_02Huh. Oh, oh man. Uh you caught me. Where are you going, Robin?
SPEAKER_05Uh you see he locks up a little bit.
SPEAKER_08Oh nowhere. I'm not going anywhere. I'm pretty sure Therian said you weren't allowed to leave.
SPEAKER_02She didn't say anything to me. Really? Therion's not my mom. She can't do that. Should I call for Therion? No, okay, no. No, no, don't please don't do that.
SPEAKER_08Therion can be kind of scary. Alright, how about this? If you tell me the truth, I won't tell her. Or I won't call for her.
SPEAKER_05He looks around.
SPEAKER_02Okay. I w I was going to go to my my secret hideout. If you if you don't tell Theryan I'll take you along. And where there is this hideout? Oh, we have to go down. We have to be quiet.
SPEAKER_08Why do we have to be quiet? Because it's my secret hideout! You're right. Anyways, why did you ignore Shusui earlier? He called out for you. I'm pretty sure you heard him.
SPEAKER_02Huh? No! I would never. I would never ignore Sh Sh Shusui. Not shiny Shusui.
SPEAKER_08No. You definitely heard him. I feel like you're lying to me.
SPEAKER_05Give me insight check.
SPEAKER_08Insight check, let's go. Ooooooooh! Nat 20. Let's nice.
SPEAKER_05Um, he definitely heard Shusui, but he was trying you can tell he's just trying to be super secretive and not not not he's trying to block everyone out at that moment.
SPEAKER_08So, yeah. I mean, I don't mind that you ignore Shusui, but I have other questions. So, how about this? How are you able to recognize Lee, but no one else can? Or no one else was able to?
SPEAKER_02Oh that's a weird question. That's because Lee looks like Lee.
SPEAKER_08What do you mean Lee looks like Lee?
SPEAKER_02That's an even weirder question. What do you mean Lee looks like Lee? Lee is Lee. I know Lee. So I so I recognize Lee.
SPEAKER_08But you saw Lee when he was a kid, not as an adult.
SPEAKER_02That makes no sense. You're weird. Anyways, do you wanna come with me or not? Alright.
SPEAKER_08At this very moment I will cast detect thoughts. Okay. And I will try to read his thoughts. And then um on a saving throw. Um, the spell just ends, but on a failed save, I can discern the target's reasoning, emotions, and something that looms large in its mind.
SPEAKER_05Okay, nice. I believe detect thoughts, you can just kind of like read surface thoughts, but you're trying to go deeper into his brain than I had to make a saving throw. So it just depends. So if it fails, then he'll know you're trying to do something.
SPEAKER_08Yeah.
SPEAKER_05Alright. Um, let me see. I'll roll for him right now.
SPEAKER_08See it with my own eyes.
SPEAKER_05Where are my dice at? There it is. Okay. Rolling for Ravain's saving throw. A 19. What the f minus one, so it's 18. Oh. I don't know what kind of saving throw it was, but it's Ravain, so I'm giving him a minus one.
SPEAKER_08Oh man.
SPEAKER_05Alright, so he notices something's going on. Doesn't quite know it's coming from you. You see him grab his head. Oh, my head hurts. And and you hear the s you do hear the surface thoughts though. And you hear as in his head he he just goes, Come on, I have to get to my secret hideout.
SPEAKER_08There's things there. And then uh I'll act as if I didn't cast my spell. Hey, are are you okay, Ramain? You look like you have a migraine going on.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, that's what Thurgan says it is too.
SPEAKER_08Here. How about this? How about let's head back, we take a break, and then we could go to your secret hideout. With me along the way.
SPEAKER_02No, we have to go now. It's a certain time where I have to be there.
SPEAKER_08A certain time? Uh what time?
SPEAKER_05There's just a certain time that I have to be there, or and you see he kind of stutters a little bit, stops before he he looks almost as if he's trying to think before he says anything.
SPEAKER_02Uh if I don't go now, my sky hole doesn't open it. I don't get cool things. So I have to go now. The sky hole? Like it opens up in the sky? Yeah, that that's what a sky hole is. Look, are you gonna go with me or not? Because I'm I'm gonna go regardless.
SPEAKER_08Okay, how about this? And then I will cast suggestion. Alright. Um, so the target must succeed on a wisdom saving throw or have the charm condition for the Dracian, or until you and your allies deal damage to the target. Um, the suggested suggested activity can't continue. Oh, okay. So it's just for the charmed condition, but the spell works no matter what. Okay. Uh uh describe in no more than 25 words.
unknownDamn.
SPEAKER_08Okay, he's not charming.
SPEAKER_05He has he's not charmed, so your suggestion would not work. Damn. So the charm is what makes the such uh these spell works.
SPEAKER_08Oh. Okay, okay. Damn, this dude is rolling hella good against me. What the heck? He his stats are not good, but he's just rolling good.
SPEAKER_02Okay, uh look, I'm gonna go. My sky hill is waiting for me, so I'm gonna. You're doing something weird with your hands there. Um, okay.
SPEAKER_05And he starts moving towards the lift. This is your last chance.
SPEAKER_02I'm I'm gonna go down now.
SPEAKER_08Oh my god. Oh my god, oh my god, what did I do? How far is how far am I from the party?
SPEAKER_05Uh you're you're pretty far, so um it's probably like a good 60-70 feet. This is right back where the the entrance is, and you and they're at the where the feast took place. So it's a little deeper into the drenner. And you see as he um slowly lowers himself down, he's going down very slowly, looking at you, staring at you to see if you're gonna come or not. Oh man.
SPEAKER_08Uh you said the lift is lowering, right?
SPEAKER_05Yeah, it's lowering down very slowly. Ah, I just let him go. He slowly goes down, and after a while, you don't see him anymore.
SPEAKER_08Alright, I'll just head back to the party.
SPEAKER_05Let's go to Lee. Um, Lee, as you're going to go look for Theryan, give me a perception check.
SPEAKER_06Let's say 18.
SPEAKER_0518. Nice. Um you're walking across a bridge, and you see Sky like walking very slowly, almost like uh his head down a little bit, but as you see this, you bump into theory. Whoa. Oh, it's you, Lee.
SPEAKER_06No, just the person I was looking for.
SPEAKER_05Why? Why were you looking for me? I'm looking for weapons. Like to buy weapons?
SPEAKER_06Yeah, buy, trade, whatever. Whatever you have, really.
SPEAKER_05Uh well, I might have something. Uh what? You'd looking for like a like a bow?
SPEAKER_06Uh sword or dagger. A bow or a rapier would be best, but um, I'm sure I can make use of whatever you have.
SPEAKER_01Hmm.
SPEAKER_05You know, I did take some lessons from some wandering doors back in my day. I have a little forge in my home.
SPEAKER_06Oh, perfect. Well, we could head there now.
SPEAKER_05She gets a little flustered. No. We're not going to my house. Look, I can try to make you something. Uh just let me know what you want, and I can try. I've never made anything anything for anyone before, but I guess I can try.
SPEAKER_06Um, well, if you're able to make a bow that's stronger than this one, I'll show her the bow I currently have. Um, but if not, uh any any rapier will do. She studies your bow for a little bit.
SPEAKER_05Let's see, this one's pretty strong. Okay. Uh, I can try. Um just give me some time. Hopefully by tomorrow morning I'll have a ready. If not, then I I I'll give you this instead. And she shows you her sword.
SPEAKER_06Thank you, Therian. I look forward to seeing it.
SPEAKER_05Only because I know you guys are gonna go to the spirit force. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't give it to you.
SPEAKER_06Looks to the side a little bit and you know Well, uh, thank you. Um I'm gonna go help the others find the supplies they need. Okay.
SPEAKER_05Well, I'll see you later then. And she starts to head back to her home. That's when you see Skye walking towards where you're where you're at.

SPEAKER_05Yeah.

SPEAKER_08He interesting guy. I'll tell you I'll tell you more later with the whole party, actually.
SPEAKER_06He's um quite the funny one. Oh, before we um regroup with the others, I wanted to ask you. Um do you wish this artifact to be returned to you? I uh no Wagnu gave it to me while you and Shisui were asleep, so I understand if you would like it back. Yeah.
SPEAKER_08It's probably better in your hands. It's not on the best term with me at the moment. Well, I'll keep it safe. Sounds good. Sounds like a plan.
SPEAKER_05What are you two doing? Are you guys going back to meet up with Wang New and Shusley?

You also notice that the meat from the MDR you you all helped um, well you didn't hit hunt this one, but the one that Shusui hunted has been fully prepared on the table. Um, you see the three of them sitting down around the table. And you see Nefara with like a piece of meat in her hand, and she's like just digging in. Hmm, not bad. Oh! Welcome back, you two!

Well, whatever you're doing with Finwin, I'm sure you're gonna need you know, like I like I always said, or like what I said earlier, to Lee over here. An apple day keeps the clerics away.

SPEAKER_05Let me think. Well, I have two of those girls with like random magic still. If you want random cells, if you want. Um let me go check in the back. And you see as she goes and just checking the back. Comes back out with like a more few more random potions. Okay, so these potions. I haven't had a chance to test them yet. What can I say? I'm I like I like mysteries. So, I mean, if you want, you feelin' lucky. You felt you're feeling lucky, you know. You can you can take some of these for free? Of course not. For you, and she looks you up and down. Hmm. For this mysterious potion that may be very good. 50 gold pieces each.
SPEAKER_08How about I do a trade? A potion of healing for the mysterious potion.
SPEAKER_05Well, I can make those by myself.
SPEAKER_08Uh you know, on a second thought, that's a little too expensive for me.
SPEAKER_05Okay, 45 gold pieces.
SPEAKER_08I'm gonna pass on that.
SPEAKER_05Uh 40 gold pieces. Ready whenever you guys are walking in. 30 gold pieces. 25 gold pieces.
SPEAKER_07Did I just hear you say 25 gold pieces for a random spell scroll?
SPEAKER_05No, a random potion.
SPEAKER_07Oh man, that's way too expensive.
SPEAKER_00You guys! It's a potion! Are we sure the potion isn't poisonous or harmful?
SPEAKER_05She gives you like a look of like, uh, I don't know, it's it's I don't know. It's it may not be. I'm sure it's a good thing. It's a good potion, I'm sure.
SPEAKER_08Okay. How how about this? Just to ensure that these potions work. If you take one of them right now, I will gladly buy the other one. Uh okay, fine.
SPEAKER_05But you're buying at full price.
SPEAKER_08Fine by me.
SPEAKER_05You see as she goes and reach for like um what seems to look like a like a purple color potion. She opens it and she downs it. Uh, looks at the four of you. Well? Anything happening?
unknownI don't think so.
SPEAKER_07No, you look normal.
SPEAKER_05And as you say that, you all blink, open your eyes and she's gone.
SPEAKER_04Aw man. Really? She's gone. Wait, what? I'm gone? Oh. Holy sweet.
SPEAKER_07Wow, what a waste! Oh shoot, she's here.
SPEAKER_06That would have been useful.
SPEAKER_05Oh, well, I guess I'll go eavesdropping tonight. Anyways, and you see like uh three potions just like just like flow in the air. So do you want them or not?
SPEAKER_08Alright, you could pick Wagnew.
SPEAKER_05You see, there's like a a blue, a red, and like a yellow potion left.
SPEAKER_07I'll grab the blue one.
SPEAKER_05Okay. 50 gold pieces. 50? You said 45. Wait. Yeah, but you said if I try one, you buy at full price.
SPEAKER_08No, you definitely said full price was 45 earlier.
SPEAKER_05Did I?
SPEAKER_08Yes, you did.
SPEAKER_05She looks for his Lee and everyone else.
SPEAKER_06Did I say that? I don't remember. Oh no, me.
SPEAKER_05Oh my gosh. Fine, 45 gold pieces.
SPEAKER_08Awesome. Here you are. And I'll hand over 45 pieces.
SPEAKER_05And she hands over the blue potion to Wagne. Well, I guess good luck with Fenwin. And don't forget you're telling me everything about it later. She says to Wagnon.
SPEAKER_07Oh yeah. I'll tell you, I'll tell you all about it. Everything. What color was the one that Nefara drank again?
SPEAKER_05She drank the purple. Purple.
SPEAKER_07Purple. Oh. Okay. I don't know if it'll matter, but just wanted to make note. Cool.
SPEAKER_00I mean, one of you guys got like the identify spell or ritual. Could identify them.
SPEAKER_07Damn, I don't have that spell. Does it work like that? Even though it's a potion?
SPEAKER_00It should. I mean it identifies magic items, I don't see why it wouldn't. I think the only problem is you guys like spend the time to do it.
SPEAKER_08Don't have that spell yet.
SPEAKER_00It's a first level spell, so it might just not be in your like spell list.
SPEAKER_07Yeah. It's not for me. I I got it from um yeah, I got it from my artifact or the Tailized Whisper. Uh if the object is a magic item or some other magical object, you learn its properties and how to use it. Yeah. Whether it requires attunement or how many charges it has.
SPEAKER_00So these potions should follow under magic items unless they're the regular healing potion.
SPEAKER_07Quick double check, DM.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, it works if you want to use it.
SPEAKER_07Cool, I want to do it, yeah. I want to see. See what this is. Can I do that for the scrolls?
SPEAKER_00I mean, it's a good one.
SPEAKER_05Uh you can do it for the scrolls, but you can choose one. I think uh let me just double check. I think it's only one item. Let me just double check.
SPEAKER_00Is it just read it? Maybe you just have to do the ritual several times.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, and I believe the Telized Whisper only allowed you to do it once.
SPEAKER_07Okay. Would you guys rather know what the potion does or what the what her what the spell is? The scroll spell.
SPEAKER_08This could be huge. Yeah, I think the scroll would be would go nuts. Okay.
SPEAKER_07Okay. I kinda leaned the scroll too, but the potion could be like life-saving or like just like it was earlier. Like she went invisible. That was crazy. Um but yeah, what do you guys think? Scroll? Potion.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, it's probably the scroll. Yeah, you can do it once. You can cast it.
SPEAKER_07Okay. Cool. I'm gonna use Tail Eyes Whisper to identify this the spell on the random scroll.
SPEAKER_05Okay, you you cast identify with your with your flute. Um, everyone sees you just playing the flute. She's like a little confused. It's like, what is he doing? And she's kind of nudging uh Lee a little bit.
SPEAKER_04What's he doing? What is he doing?
SPEAKER_05And you start to hear a voice, Wagnu, as if it's underwater, and it tells you exactly what the scroll is. And upon using the scroll, you roll a die on the wild magic table, and whatever result you get, that's what you get.
SPEAKER_07So is that a particular die?
SPEAKER_05Yeah, it's I it's it's a D100.
SPEAKER_07Oh snap. Okay.
SPEAKER_05And then depending on what you roll, like certain effects happen. It could be very good or it could be very bad.
SPEAKER_07Oh my god, that's so clutch. Is there something that I can name this just so that it's different from the other one? Or I know how to do it.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, you could just name it like Wild Magic Squirrel or something.
SPEAKER_07Okay.
SPEAKER_05Both of them are the same thing, by the way.
SPEAKER_07So you have to. Oh, okay, okay. Gotcha, gotcha. Cool. Cool. Okay.
SPEAKER_05Wait, what's cool? What happened?
SPEAKER_07Oh, nothing, nothing.
SPEAKER_05That was weird. Why did why did you play music? Whatever.
SPEAKER_07I'm a bard. I love music. Music is my life.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, it's like a it's like a drenner thing, honestly. Sometimes Fenwin would just take out a Liu and play as play it as well. It's it's I don't get it, but whatever.
SPEAKER_07Hmm. Yeah, it's it's probably nothing, really. Awesome. Thank you again for everything. Do you guys wanna go rip me with Finwin?
SPEAKER_08Yeah, I'm yeah, I'm pretty ready.
SPEAKER_00I think uh we've had a little break. Yeah.
SPEAKER_07Awesome. Yeah, I'm ready to set on go.
SPEAKER_05Okay. You start to all make your way to Fenwin. At this point, the stars are now coming out. Um it's probably around like 8 p.m. ish. If there's nothing else you want to do, then we can just proceed.
SPEAKER_08Um before we proceed, I'll just tell them about my interaction with Rabbi Ying. Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_05Um his secret hideout. Okay, and as you guys are walking, go ahead. Oh no.
SPEAKER_08Uh yeah, I just wanted to bring this up before we met with Finwin. Um Lee, you said Rabbain was your childhood friend? Uh yeah, we we knew each other as kids. I I asked him how he recognized you. I just thought it was funny since no one else here did. Well, uh, I'm not too sure. But anyways. Um He definitely heard Shisui call for him. He said he was going to a secret hideout. And he actually offered me to tag along, but I didn't really have the time to separate from everyone else. And he mentioned something about a sk a sky hole? A portal that opens up in the sky? Does anyone know anything about this?
SPEAKER_07No, I can't say he rings a bell. Skyhole?
SPEAKER_08Yeah, he says that's where he gets his items. His collections.
SPEAKER_07Did you actually follow him to the hideout?
SPEAKER_08No, no. I would have to take the live. And actually get out of Drunner, so.
SPEAKER_07Uh I I like Ravain Lee, but he sometimes seems a little mysterious, a little strange in his own ways. So I mean, I don't know, it just sounds kinda like um, you know, someone making up some things with their imagination, if you ask me.
SPEAKER_06It would explain where he's getting all his things, though.
SPEAKER_07That is true. His mysterious item.
SPEAKER_00I mean, he seems to have been doing it for a while, so he's probably fine. But uh again. I I'll go check up on him, uh I'll go check his house, uh before the end of the night. Just to make sure you made it back safely.
SPEAKER_07Oh, before I forget to. Here, I wanted to hand you one of these. And then I'll give I'll give Lee, sorry. I'll give Lee one of these scrolls of the random chaos.
SPEAKER_06Thank you.
SPEAKER_07Yeah, good luck. I don't know.
SPEAKER_05Okay. You guys are walking and talking, and eventually you make your way back to Fenwin. Um as you all go inside, you notice that there are no elves in the building. You go back to where you had talked to him this morning. And you see him sitting down in the center of there. You all have a pleasant walk around runner. And I see you as he uh notices like the way your body is not as warm now anymore. I see you must have metaphor. I'll decide her drinks. Don't know how she got there. That's beside the point. It was like all you got here like I said earlier, to give you a a pretest of of some sort to prepare you for the upcoming battle. See as he stands up. Um all around you turns black. He mutters something under his breath. Again, this is just a test. So if we do all that. And he polymorphs into something. Fire starts to erupt from his body. Plate armor starts to surround him. You see a giant scimitar come up from the ground, and he grabs onto it. Show me your true power.
SPEAKER_07My favorite thing to hear. Roll initiative. As I roll a freaking 14.
SPEAKER_06Oh, that's not bad. I rolled a lot worse, I rolled an eight. Let's go.
SPEAKER_0021. Oh my god, I rolled a two. Oh gosh.
SPEAKER_05What's going on, guys?
SPEAKER_07Wait, we're getting the bad rolls out the way?
SPEAKER_05The sky rolls. Oh, 21. 21. Nice. Uh any changes you guys want to make?
SPEAKER_07Um I will go first. Do you wanna take my spot? Cause we can swap, right? Yeah. Uh shit. Okay, I think it'd be actually l let me just stay where I am. I I think it's like, yeah. Yeah, let me stay where I am.
SPEAKER_05Okay, then. But that then black is first. Um is second, walk new lee, and then choose to be last. Or first to go, black. What are you doing, Sky?
SPEAKER_08Alright, let me see. So 30 feet. Yeah, I was just back up five feet, and I will cast tidal wave. I will reach into my water skin with the droplet of water. I conjure up a wave of water that crashes down on an air within range. The air can be up to 30 feet long, up to 10 feet wide, up to 10 feet tall, and then each creature in that area must make a dexterity throw. And then on a fail save, the creature takes 48 bludgeoning damage and is knocked prone. On a successful save, a creature takes half the damage and isn't knocked prone.
SPEAKER_05Is it a box?
SPEAKER_08Uh it's it didn't really say, it's just like I could conjure up to like 30 feet long at 10 feet. Why didn't 10 feet tall?
SPEAKER_05Okay.
SPEAKER_08Damn, that's that's pretty good. I'm just gonna I'm just making it straight where like it doesn't hit anyone. Okay, perfect. Long enough to hit him.
SPEAKER_05And you want to do it straight from where you're at you're at, right?
SPEAKER_08Yeah.
SPEAKER_05And it's it stays there until you it's a concentration spell?
SPEAKER_08Nah, it's just a one-hit.
SPEAKER_05A one hit? Okay, nice.
SPEAKER_08Um then I will cast innate sorcery as my bonus action, so the spell save decisive on that is increased by one.
SPEAKER_05Ooh, okay. So what's the save again? Is it a wisdom save? Uh Dex. Ooh. 16. Yeah, that's not gonna work. Get a five. This is a nine to altogether though.
SPEAKER_08Okay.
SPEAKER_00But will he actually be knocked pro, or is he leaving the prone?
SPEAKER_08The hacks. Six, seven, two, fifteen, twenty. Twenty damage. Twenty damage?
SPEAKER_05Jeez. Okay, so as you wait, cast as your tidal wave hits him, um, you see as this fire starts to flicker out and sting just comes out from his body. I'm just double checking to see if he's um if any if any chance he's like super weakness to water.
SPEAKER_00No, it's it's bludgeoning damage.
SPEAKER_05Fortunately he's not. Oh, it's considered bludgeoning damage? Not co-damage? Oh no.
SPEAKER_08Um, I don't know, because I think the bludgeoning damage is from being not prone.
SPEAKER_00But I don't know if it's like well, that's the only damage it takes, so no, it's not a good co-damage Aurora.
SPEAKER_05Okay, it's all good. So it takes 20.
SPEAKER_08I'll good, I'll get end my turn.
SPEAKER_05Okay, but that it's its turn as he steams and then he sparks his fire again, and he ablazes once more. Um he's actually gonna go towards the closest one to him. Just Lee. Picks the scimitar and swings it at you.
SPEAKER_00Why am I so far away from everyone?
SPEAKER_05First attack misses, comes back around as he misses and you manage to just like jump over him. Misses again.
SPEAKER_06Let's go.
SPEAKER_05But he does get three attacks. Oh god. And misses again. Now let's go just goes at you, and Lee's just like dodging him. Uh here finwin says to you. Very good, Lee. That's what I expected. And the Wagnew with your go.
SPEAKER_07Alright, um, just so I can know too. Would this would Fenwin right now be considered a humanoid?
SPEAKER_05Right now he is out.
SPEAKER_07Okay.
SPEAKER_05He's considered uh elemental.
SPEAKER_07Okay, then I will just start off with a classic here. I'll begin by casting mirror image from my El Water Elementor artifact on myself.
SPEAKER_05Okay.
SPEAKER_07And then as my bonus action, I'll go ahead and cast Bardic Inspiration on Shisui.
SPEAKER_05Shisui has been inspired.
SPEAKER_07And if you need any reminders, I can give you like any of the reminders about the Bardicity. Yes, it's the very the regular one is anytime you fail a D20 test, you can roll the Bardic Inspiration Die and add the number onto it, but the the battling ones are um on when your hit actually hits. Oh sorry. Oh yeah, so when your hit actually hits, you can use the bark inspiration die to add the result to uh to your AC against that attack. I'm sorry. Oh, that's the defense one. I'm so sorry. The attack one is when you do hit, you can add the bark inspiration. To the re the result of the attack's damage.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_07So if you get hit, you can roll the die, it'll add to your AC. If you confirm a hit, you can add roll the die, add the damage of the die to your attack damage. Cool. And then I'll just end my turn.
SPEAKER_05Hell yeah. Alright, Lee, it's your goal. Just leave your on deck.
SPEAKER_06Okay. As my bonus action, I'm gonna cast um Misty Step. Nice. Go to teleport. Um, let me make sure it's in range. 30 feet. Okay. It should be in range to teleport behind Shisui. Haha. And then That's a classic move. As my action, I'm gonna uh touch Shisui on the shoulder and cast protection from evil and good. Ooh. So it's a concentration spell, lasts up to ten minutes. Um willing creature I touch is protected against creatures that are aberrations, celestials, elementals, fee, fiends, or undead. Holy shit. Creature of those types have disadvantage on attack rolls against this target. Wow. So Finwin should have disadvantage. Wow, that's pretty freaking broken. Hell yeah. And then uh I'll just You got the Shisui and I back up with my movement. Uh let me check the range. 45 feet. Dang. Classic weekend would never be. We'll call that good. And that'll be my turn.
SPEAKER_00I don't think you need to get further away than that. Unless you can teleport.
SPEAKER_08Hey, you never know.
SPEAKER_05Uh and that'll be my turn. Alrighty. Shoot the zero go.
SPEAKER_00I just gotta charge forward. Definitely have enough movement. Yeah, I'm just gonna charge forward. And then we just gotta uh you know start swinging.

SPEAKER_05Oh, cool. Uh see how he just looks at you.
SPEAKER_00Do I actually speed him up support?
SPEAKER_05And as he action searches, he goes, wait, what are you doing?
SPEAKER_00Why not? I'm just gonna keep going. Yep, so I'm gonna action search. Okay. Uh that's a 27 to hit.

SPEAKER_05You can cast it like right here. Or like, you know, like away from everyone, and it as long as you keep him in or in your range, it'll still hit him.
SPEAKER_08I will cast it right behind him. Alright. So I will cast Hunger of Adar. I open up a gateway to the farm realm, a region infested with unspeakable horrors, a 20-foot radius. Svera darkness appears. Center on the point with range and lasting for the duration up to one minute. That's like what? 10 rounds? Forgot how many? Yep. 10 rounds. Okay, so any creature that starts in its turn in the arrow takes two d6 cold damage, and then any creature that ended its turn there must succeed on a deck saving throw or take two d6 acts of damage. Ooh, okay.
SPEAKER_05That is that with is that your spell? Uh yes. Okay. As you go to cast your hunger of uh Adar, you also notice that the edge of Dawn appears in your hand.
SPEAKER_08Okay. Interesting. Um yeah, I'll just still cast it and just ask Dawn if there's something that it's thinking of.
SPEAKER_05Just wondering if you want to take this guy so or not. Just checking out stuff.
SPEAKER_04I mean, is he even alive?
SPEAKER_08Technically.
SPEAKER_04Well, we'll find out. What'd you kill him that is?
SPEAKER_08I'll think about it. And I rolled for freaking three damage.
SPEAKER_05Okay. Uh I don't make any saves, right? And only on my turn, right? Yeah, I only go three damage. If you and yeah, you end up uh in that sphere. Okay. Nice. So at the start of my turn, I I take damage, and at the end of my turn I take damage. Correct.

SPEAKER_05That's so freaking broken. He turns towards guy, he makes that announcement, he goes, and then he just suddenly stops in his place.
SPEAKER_00Um he has disadvantaged because he's frightened.
SPEAKER_05Even as uh a big fire elemental, he looks at Shusui. That's that that that's kinda weird.

SPEAKER_0518 is his armor class.
SPEAKER_07Cool. Nice. Okay, I hit for seven.
SPEAKER_05Seven damage. Slashing damage, correct.
SPEAKER_07Mm-hmm. And then I get to make another attack with my skill tar. 1D two. Oh, okay. This one doesn't hit. This one's only 11.
SPEAKER_0511 does not hit, so you miss.
SPEAKER_07And then I think I'm just gonna go ahead and cast another Bardic Inspiration Die.
SPEAKER_05So your your second attack was your bonus action.
SPEAKER_07Oh, wait. I I think I have a uh a dual wielding thing that makes it not take up my bonus action. Let me double check.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, because either I have the two weapon fighting, so I think that's how it works.
SPEAKER_07Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Look at it.
SPEAKER_07Use your attack as a you can make an extra attack as a bonus action later on the same turn with a different weapon. As long as it's a melee weapon that lacks two hand property.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, let's go. That's good.
unknownOkay.
SPEAKER_07Cool, so I I can still use my bardic inspiration bonus action, right? Awesome. I'll go ahead and use it on um black sky since he's close.
SPEAKER_05What do you what's your um your bardic act?
SPEAKER_07My bardic insur my bardic act is I just start I start hyping him up. Like, come on, black sky. Come on. He starts chanting Imagine that's your brother. It's water cries. Yeah. Cool, and that'll be enough for me.
SPEAKER_05Alright, Lee, it's your goal. Should see your deck.
SPEAKER_06Okay, I'm gonna take a shot at him.
SPEAKER_05Alrighty. That is a 24 to hit. 24 hits. I made you guys too strong.
SPEAKER_06I can't remember if you hit some of you. You still spire for right now. Uh five plus ten damage. Okay. Nice. And then I'm gonna shoot him again.
SPEAKER_08Phew, pew, pew.
SPEAKER_06Another twenty-four. Sheesh.
SPEAKER_08Damn! Well, that's good.
SPEAKER_06Four. Ooh, back to damage this time.
SPEAKER_02Sheesh.
SPEAKER_06And then I'll use my uh bonus action to um for planar warrior. So kind of the same thing that happened when I was fighting the M deer. It's almost as if the arrow's like phasing in and out and speeding up over time, and I get to add an extra 1d8 damage, and all the damage for this attack becomes force damage instead of piercing.
SPEAKER_01Wow.
SPEAKER_06An extra one damage. Let's go. That's insane. It's a one damage. That's so powerful.
SPEAKER_05That's the one.
SPEAKER_06And that'll be my turn. Alrighty. Choose Louis.
SPEAKER_00Alright. I will uh I will move and kind of get onto the other side of him. And I will just continue doing uh my attacks, man. Oh, that's an at 20. Give me that crit. Dang! Let's go. I'm ready for my crit. Let's go. So crit was max damage plus an additional dice rate.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, so you take the max damage for one, you roll the other one, and then you add your modifiers.
SPEAKER_00How does that work for like additional damage, like my sneak attack and my menacing attack?
SPEAKER_05Yeah, so you would take one max of your sneak attack and then you add you roll for one the one of the sneak attack.
SPEAKER_00Okay.
SPEAKER_05So for every die you have to roll, you take the max of one of them and then you roll the other one.
SPEAKER_00Okay. Dang. Alright, so I would like to do that. That's a lot of fucking damage.
SPEAKER_07Yeah, that is a lot of damage.
SPEAKER_00Let me figure out how much I'm doing, and then I'll roll that uh eight, that's six, and then uh the superiority dice is another eight. Alright, so at minimum that's what is that? That's 42 before I roll. So let's see. 42. Okay. Uh okay, 22. Uh oh, that is 42 damage.
SPEAKER_0542 freaking damage.
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_05Okay. Uh Fenny win is starting to flicker in and out now.
SPEAKER_02No, man, you guys are really giving to me, huh?
SPEAKER_00No, don't worry, I still have a second attack. Oh, and then uh he has to make the wisdom save. Otherwise he's right again.
SPEAKER_05He saved his time, right? 15?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, 16. Yeah. That's fine. Oh no.
SPEAKER_08Oh no. Okay, um Flash exili moment.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, this is a uh what is that? That's a 10? No, what? 11.
SPEAKER_0511 does not hit.
SPEAKER_00Alright. Uh yeah, got a little uh too excited. Alright, that's my turn.
SPEAKER_05Oh shoot. Alright, Sky, as your turn starts, you hear Dawn in your head.
SPEAKER_04I think he's low. Yeah, what does that mean, Dawn? That means if you hit him now, we can take his soul.
SPEAKER_08Ah, I see. I'll think about that. Alright, I will just move a little bit to the side. So I'm not in the swear is not in my way. So damn, that was already three tiles?
SPEAKER_05Four, five, that's 20 feet. 25, yeah. Yeah. Alright, I'll move here.
SPEAKER_08And I will just cast sorceress burst with a cold damage.
SPEAKER_03Okay.
SPEAKER_08Nice. So if you roll an eight on the d8 for the spell, I can roll another eight and add it to a damage. So let's see. Two d8s.
SPEAKER_05Okay. Alright. I believe, uh, is it advantage to roll? Did you roll advantage to attack at all? Uh no. Uh I don't think so. Okay, go and roll your D20.
SPEAKER_08Oh shit, yeah.
SPEAKER_05Yeah. I was just wondering, I I I think Shusu had something that give give you, but I think it was just him who had disadvantage if he was frightened, so never mind. Yeah, yeah. Alright.
SPEAKER_0818 to hit.
SPEAKER_0518 is his AC. Nice.
SPEAKER_08Let's go.
SPEAKER_05Good guy.

SPEAKER_0512 in total. 12 in total. You point your hand and you hold edge dawn in the other. Uh, sorcerer's blast comes from your hand and shoots at Spinwind. This chain of of blasts is familiar to you. As this happened, you recall the moment before you and Wagnu transported to Yuping. When you first used your sorcerer's blast and you chained it. And this is where you also met Spirit Tree for the first time. As his memory overflows you, your blast hits Finwin. And how do you want to do this?
SPEAKER_01Oh god.
SPEAKER_08God, I would love to kill them. Oh my god. Uh I'll just I'll just uh keep it simple and clean, you know, just one hand, wave blast. Just the stance of Vegeta. The stance of Vegeta. Big bang attack. Boom.
SPEAKER_05Hits him, all of his flames like just uh fades away from his body. The polymorph ends, and you see a fenomene comes back, kneeling down the ground. Wow.
SPEAKER_02I know I told you guys to go all hell, but it didn't even give me a chance to attack you.
SPEAKER_05His domain fades away. And you find yourself back in his in his home. I gotta say. The teamwork is. It's nice.
SPEAKER_07Yeah, well you wanted to see what we could do. So we just wanted to show you.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, I'm sh I'm sure you you'll have no problem. You guys are. You guys are strong. Looks towards Lee. You found yourself a nice group.

SPEAKER_05So, uh what should I call the future saviors of Yuping?
SPEAKER_08I looked over. Uh I'm not really too good with names.
SPEAKER_00Hmm. Likewise. I mean, you see frost. It was uh It was a name.
SPEAKER_05I mean it's okay, you don't you don't have to think of one now. You go down history as the nameless something.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I mean if we succeed, history will name us something.
SPEAKER_07That's a good point.
SPEAKER_05He gets up from where he is. Tomorrow morning. I'll escort you to the entrance of the spirit forest.
SPEAKER_00Sounds like a plan.
SPEAKER_08Yeah, I'm beat. Tomorrow morning sounds like a good plan.
SPEAKER_05Well, if there's nothing else for you to do, then feel free to get some rest.
SPEAKER_00Yep. I mean, uh, you take care of yourself too. We kind of did quite the number on you.
SPEAKER_07Yeah, sorry if we went a little overboard.
SPEAKER_05Well, hopefully you learned something. Maybe the fire guardian doesn't have a a chance at all. Just keep up that that teamwork. Yeah. He watches as you all um leave his home. Before the night ends, is there anything in particular that you want to do, whether together or by yourself, anywhere you want to go?
SPEAKER_00Well, I was gonna go check on Rabine to make sure you got back okay. But besides that, not particularly.
SPEAKER_07Yeah, no, just want to rest with everyone, talk about how we did against Fenwin, how crazy that was.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_08Yeah. Yeah, I wanna go check on you too.
SPEAKER_06We would head to where the like plaque with Kenneth's name is on it and kind of look rest up there for a little bit before he regroups with everyone. Okay.
SPEAKER_05Um, Shusui and Sky, you're both going to see Ravain. Wagnu. Are you going with them or are you going by yourself? Or do you what did you want to do? Did you want to tag along? Did you want to go with I'll tag along with them. Okay. The three of you start to go and when you get to Ravain's home, you notice the door is slightly ajar.
SPEAKER_00Uh, I'll kinda just kinda crouch down, kinda creep up, and try and like see if I can peek through the crack.
SPEAKER_05As you peek through, um, I believe your passive perception is pretty high, correct?
SPEAKER_00Uh what is it? What was it? Six eighteen.
SPEAKER_05Eighteen. As you peek through, um, although it's dark in here, you don't see you don't seem to see Reving anywhere.
SPEAKER_00Looks like he's not back yet. Uh I don't know.
SPEAKER_07But the door was open.
SPEAKER_00I mean he could have just forgotten to close it on his way out. It seems like something he'd do, but uh you take a look. See if he left a note or anything.
SPEAKER_08Yeah.
SPEAKER_05I barge in. As you barge in, um, it's you see all of his weird things on the tables on the grounds. It's kind of just everywhere. It's quiet. At this point it's getting pretty late. Approaching nine. Nine pm ish around there, ten. It's weird that yet he's not back yet.
SPEAKER_08Uh I would try to call out. See if anyone's home.
SPEAKER_05You call out and all of a sudden you hear a voice. Hello.
SPEAKER_02Hello.
SPEAKER_08Ravain?
SPEAKER_02Is that you, Sky?
SPEAKER_08Yeah. Yeah, you you left your door open.
SPEAKER_05On the table you can see um it's kind of glowing a little bit. It seems to be like some kind of stone.
SPEAKER_08So, what'd you uh what'd you pick up today from uh the sky hole?
SPEAKER_02Uh can you guys come help me? My my foot got stuck. I can't come home.
SPEAKER_08Can't come home? Wait, you're not home right now? Where are you?
SPEAKER_05Wait, how am I talking to you? You see the stone kind of light up again.
SPEAKER_02I'm scared. It's it it's dark.
SPEAKER_08Wait, where where are you, Rabbain?
SPEAKER_02I'm I'm near my sky home.
SPEAKER_08Ha okay, okay. How how can I find you? You have to tell me where your secret hido is.
SPEAKER_02Uh uh if you if you take the lift down, I I dropped some pieces of bread. Hopefully it's still there and an animal didn't eat it.
SPEAKER_08Okay. Stay where you are. I'll come get you.
SPEAKER_03Uh and then it just kinda cuts off.
SPEAKER_00Alright, uh, I'll go grab Lee. Uh I'll meet you guys at the lift, I guess. Let's uh let's go get him before uh so you know, something in the woods finds him.
SPEAKER_07Right, right. That's weird how he was talking to us.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I mean he must have found a magic uh magic trinket or something.
SPEAKER_07Okay, yeah, let's go. Let's go make sure he's alright. But where was that left again?
SPEAKER_00Uh over there by the entrance, uh you know how we got up here.
SPEAKER_07Okay. Alright, yeah. Yeah, let's get leave first just in case.
SPEAKER_08Alright. And then uh before we leave, I will put that uh glowing stone in my bag and try to see if there's anything useful for us to take.
SPEAKER_05Okay. You can give me your investigation check, and then the only thing I would want to say is Has Lee ever told any one of you where the treetop is? No.
SPEAKER_00I don't think so. I don't think so. It was only when he was within all.
SPEAKER_05So the only thing that would would be a little difficult is that because he's already on his way there, um, it might be kind of hard to find him at the moment. But go and what was your investigation check again? Sky?
SPEAKER_08Thirteen.
SPEAKER_05Thirteen. Yeah, you've you see a whole bunch of trinkets. Um they seem pretty like pretty weird. You're not too sure exactly what what they do, but you do see uh a very cool, like it looks just like a rod, but it seems special to you.
SPEAKER_08Alright, I will take the rod.
unknownOkay.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, the rod and stone to your inventory. You guys go outside and Lee. You know Lee to be someone who's dexterous, who's quick to get around. You've seen him in battle, how he teleports around the battlefield. As you guys leave Ravain's home, you don't see Lee anywhere. You recall him saying that he was gonna go um to the treetop of somewhere, but you can't make out exactly where. Tonight is a full moon, the stars are out, and the cry of Ravain echoes in your mind.
SPEAKER_08Okay. Here's the problem. We actually don't know where Kenneth was buried. That means we can't even find Lee.
SPEAKER_07Oh god. Um how can we find him?
SPEAKER_00I can go talk to Fenwin. He should be able to get me there, but uh I think you guys should should start trying to find uh Rabai. And uh just just leave a trail of something. I'm sure me and Lee can can find a trail if you guys try and leave something behind.
SPEAKER_07Okay. You're gonna be okay without it?
SPEAKER_00I can't imagine it'll take us too long. Like, me and him are rather experienced like hunters and survivalists. We should be able to find you guys pretty quickly. Once I actually get to him.
SPEAKER_07Okay. That that sounds that'll work with me. That sounds like a good idea. Um, if we if we need a signal out to you somehow, just look or listen out for a huge bang or something. I'm sure we'll go.
SPEAKER_00You guys can you guys can do something like that, I'm sure.
SPEAKER_07You know us too well. No, that's perfect.
SPEAKER_00Whatever you do, please don't burn down the forest. But besides that, just set like a a cold beam up or something. Something like bright and uh not dangerous.
SPEAKER_07Sounds like a plan.
unknownOkay.
SPEAKER_07Nah, I like that plan though.
SPEAKER_05Sounds good to me. Okay. Just we starts to head towards Fenwin. Uh let's transition over to Lee real fast. You make your way to the treetop where you have the where you and Fenwin changed the slab to Kenneth's name. As you approach the slab, you see someone there already.
SPEAKER_06Do I recognize the person?
SPEAKER_05Um you do recognize from behind that she seems to be wearing like um you don't recognize ish, but you kinda recall a little bit. Um, you notice she's wearing it's a it's she, and you see that she's wearing like a purple-ish robe of sort.
SPEAKER_06As I kinda approach Owen. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bother.
SPEAKER_05As she turns, you see as her her mahogany hair uh covers her eyes and she moves it away from her eyes.
SPEAKER_04Oh. Uh Lee, uh, I'm uh sorry, I I'm just I come here almost every night to clean the slabs.
SPEAKER_05Well, it used to be your name.
SPEAKER_06Okay.
SPEAKER_05Do I recognize her when she turns around? When she turns around, you get a a little glimpse in your mind. This name echoes out. Replays in your head. And you feel like a some kind of there's like a almost like um just for an instant, you can swear you see like a golden thread that just forms between the two of you. And the name Alera rings in your head.
SPEAKER_06She goes, Are you okay? You're kinda staring. Okay. Sorry. Uh so is it is it her or just the name? Do you move closer? Yeah, I start kind of walking towards.
SPEAKER_05As you move closer, at first you see an image of Alyra. And that image slowly fades away. And in front of you you actually see Nafara. Are you okay?
SPEAKER_06Oh. Yeah, yeah, sorry, I I thought I saw something, but it was nothing. Um, thank you for cleaning the his name.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, of course, I mean I I knew your name sounded familiar before when I heard it. No wonder. That's because it used to be on the slab.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, um. Trennor thought I was dead.
SPEAKER_05Hmm, so you came back alive.
SPEAKER_06Interesting. Uh yeah, in a way, but it seems our stories are kind of similar. What do you mean? Well, you woke up in a forest and. um something similar happened to me when I was when I was a child.
SPEAKER_05She moves closer to you at this point. What happened to you? That's a long story. Well, we kind of have a long night.
SPEAKER_06Ish. Well, back when me and uh Finwin were kids, we. we were quite the troublemakers. Um we went in a place that was forbidden by the previous leader of Drennor. And um that was when I was lost for well, for Drenner 200 years, and for me that was about twenty years. Oh, I was a land very far from here. To be honest, I'm not even sure if I could find my way back there.
SPEAKER_05Do you want to go back?
SPEAKER_06I haven't decided yet. Things have changed so much here. I mean, the only reason I was fighting so hard to find my way back was to see my brother again. But that's not possible.
SPEAKER_05I guess I can kind of understand. I mean, the only memories I have are of hair. I don't even know if I have any siblings out there or any parents.
SPEAKER_04Well, maybe one day you'll find them. Hopefully. I mean, I don't even think I belong in Drenner.
SPEAKER_05It's as much as I like this place, um everyone is just always so happy. It's a little weird at times, you know. Hey, maybe I'm from wherever you came from, or wherever you were sent to. Maybe.
SPEAKER_06I've met a few people that I think might be from there. Oh, um like who? Well, uh for now I'll keep that to myself, but Come on, tell me she touches you. And she's uh I just laugh a little bit. But I promise, once I do find a safe way back, I will let you know.
SPEAKER_05Is it Wagnew? Or shoesui? Could be any of 'em. Interesting. Okay, uh, sure. If you find out a way, you let me know, okay?
SPEAKER_06Okay.
SPEAKER_05She walks towards the slab again and kind of just sits down. And she pout like she kind of just uh pant down the um the like the side next to her. Come on. And she you see as she pulls out an apple. Apple?
SPEAKER_06No. Oh, I'll go and sit.
SPEAKER_05You know, eating an apple under the night sky is pretty nice.
SPEAKER_06It's peaceful.
SPEAKER_05Yeah. Like drenner. It's pretty cool. Can be kinda a little boring sometimes, but I guess for the most part, it's it's pretty nice. It's safe, it seems. But is safe always good?
SPEAKER_06It can be.
SPEAKER_05Maybe one of these days you can show me how to shoot an arrow or something.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, I could do that. It's a useful skill to have. Although don't tell Finwin he might yell at me.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, I won't. It'll be our secret. As a night sky, the stars come out even brighter. We move on over to Shusui. Visiting Finwin. You go inside the home of Finwen and you see him there. Um. You see he's like putting like patches of like leaves on his body. Oh man. I really heard it.
SPEAKER_00We really did a number on you.
SPEAKER_02Oh, Shu Zui. Back so soon.
SPEAKER_00Uh yeah. Uh we were checking in with Ravain to because we saw him uh leave earlier. And it seems he's gotten himself into some trouble. I was uh hoping you would know where I could find Lee. Uh Sky and uh Wagner are already on their way to go find him.
SPEAKER_05Hmm. At this time of the night. It's probably at the treetop where Kenneth Slab is, right? I'm assuming that.
SPEAKER_00Uh I haven't actually been there. Do you mind uh leading the way or give me some uh instructions on how to get there?
SPEAKER_05Yeah, uh I can actually take you there.
SPEAKER_02But first I wanted to give you something.
SPEAKER_05I noticed that you have uh quite some skill there, you know. You really messed me up, man.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, uh, after uh losing my family the first time, I wanted to make sure nothing like that happened again, so I kept at it.
SPEAKER_05Well, you're doing a great job, if no one has told you yet. Come over here. Oh, come on, come over here.
SPEAKER_00Alright, alright, uh what is it?
SPEAKER_05You see as he opens like a little um hole in the ground with his hand, just kinda waves it and that like a hole open up. Uh a bright light comes out from it. It's very small. Go ahead. Uh stick that rapier in there.
SPEAKER_00I kinda tilt my head. This is a little weird, but I kinda slowly stick my rapier in there. Trust me.
SPEAKER_05Trust me. As you stick a rapier in there. Oh, and uh, I felt something on your on your body. Can I can I see that dagger actually?
SPEAKER_00Uh yeah, sure. Uh I assume it's a white tiger fing.
SPEAKER_05Yeah. As you hand over your white tiger thing, he just holds it up as your rapier is Um being stabbed into the hole. You see him whisper something, and your white tiger fing starts to just turn to dust, light dust. And you see that energy being suck into your rapier. You see your rapier start to glow.
SPEAKER_00That uh go ahead. That would be my dagger. I was shoot.
SPEAKER_02Well it's uh it's okay.
SPEAKER_05I'm sure they'll understand.
SPEAKER_00I just pull out my rapier, a little kind of kind of uh.
SPEAKER_05As you pull out your rapier, you pull out your rapier and you see that the blade of your rapier is shining bright yellow. Um you swing it around a little bit. It feels like it fits perfectly. Just it it feels like your rapier. But you can tell there's some kind of some kind of something about it that makes it different. I'm sure this this new found power will be of use to you, and I'm sure whoever's dagger that belonged to, I'm sure they'll be fine once they see this this amazing uh new power that I bestowed upon you. And you can add it to your inventory the sun blade. It's kinda funny. Uh your group that is. You're all a little different, but you mesh well together. You probably don't notice it, but you do seem to shine quite a bit.
SPEAKER_00I mean, I I don't mean to rush you, Fenwin, but uh I I am kinda worried about uh Rabbiing uh May maybe you can explain.
SPEAKER_05That's right. That's yeah, let's go. Come on, we can walk and talk. And he starts to head out. Sorry, this old man has a has a problem with you know time. You know when you live 200 years, plus 200 plus years, you get kinda lost sometimes. He starts to lead you to where um the treetop is, and from there we'll move on over to where Sky and Wagnu are at. You guys go take the lift and go down. Immediately you spot the the breadcrumbs, and they're not they're not subtle or anything, they're like right in the open. It's a very sloppy job. How are you guys going about trying to find Ravain?
SPEAKER_07So just just to recall, he said his foot was stuck on something, right? Okay. Um Okay. Can I just do like uh um I guess an investigation check?
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_07To look for like um look for an I I'll just look around to see if I see any like other traces of his clothing or anything like that.
SPEAKER_05Okay, go and give me an investigation investigation check. You do realize that the crumbs are it seems to be leading like a trail.
SPEAKER_07Okay. Okay. Okay, I'll just follow the crumbs in. That way it's easy.
SPEAKER_05Okay. The both of you follow the crumb?
SPEAKER_07Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER_05Any specific way you want to do it or just going straight for it?
SPEAKER_07Um straightforward first.
unknownOkay.
SPEAKER_05Um, you start to hasten yourself, you follow the crumbs. Eventually you get to in about like, you know, like a 10 minutes, 15 minutes or so, you find yourself kind of near where you had hunted the em deer from earlier. Um the trail of breadcrumbs ends there. You look up and you see on one side where the em deer was at. On the other side you see the spirit forest. Which is just all blackened. Alright, you're approaching this.
SPEAKER_08What do you think we should do, Wagnu?
SPEAKER_07Hmm. I'm not sure, but just the fact that those trail of crumbs has led us out here, it it already makes me feel like this is a a worse situation than it might seem. Um I'll call out. Just real loud, I'll yell just to try it out. Rabai!
SPEAKER_05Or as you call out, you hear it right back at you.
SPEAKER_02Wagnu!
SPEAKER_05Over here! And you hear it coming from the side of the spirit force.
SPEAKER_07Just wait for us! Keep yelling! And then I'll just like point to black sky. Alright. You wanna go or just should we wait for should we wait for the others? I think we should go. Okay, let's let him know this is where we were last though. What do you got to shoot in the air?
SPEAKER_08I mean he said we shouldn't start any fires, but Oh gosh. I have nothing but a firebolt.
SPEAKER_07Alright, no worries. Let me hit let me take care of this. I will use my one of my cantrips, Thunderclap. Um, actually, step back, give me give me a few feet. Give me like five feet. Black sky, just so you don't get hit by this. But it's just a a thunderous sound that can be heard up to 100 feet away.
SPEAKER_05Okay.
SPEAKER_07And then everyone that's five feet away from me has to make a constitution saving throw, but just have black sand move farther away. Nice. Cool. So I'll just cat yeah, cast that count trip so it makes a really loud, really, really loud noise. Can be heard from far as far away as I can do, just to signal them. And then uh I'm done uh to walk into the spirit forest and look for up.
SPEAKER_05Um everyone in Drenner can hear it. Shisui, you hear you hear it as you're following Finwin towards Li. Li and Nafara both hear it. You make your way, and then all of a sudden you see as you go into the spirit forest, traveling a little bit farther, you see um Raviing running up to you.
SPEAKER_02Wag Du! You came for me. Of course, what the where were you? Uh I was stuck. My my foot got stuck. Okay, are you alright? Um my new friends helped me. What new friends? He's over there! Look! Oh he looks kinda like like you, Sky.
SPEAKER_05And as you see as Ring turns from behind Raivain. Red hair, blue eyes, black armor, a giant great sword scraping the ground. You ought to take better care of your friends.
SPEAKER_02Good thing I found him.
SPEAKER_08I wouldn't call him my friend.
SPEAKER_03Why not?
SPEAKER_08I don't know.
SPEAKER_05Do you call me brother then? As the light of the moon shines on him and you see red waves. That's where we'll stop for tonight.
SPEAKER_08Dang. Dang, I was gonna do something else too, but okay.
SPEAKER_07Easy.
