Resupplied by the leshies and pointed toward a cave that might lead home, the goons crawl deeper instead of higher. Shum hands Talim a flintlock engraved with a cult's eye. Somewhere ahead, the witch's cockatrice is waiting, and she has not forgotten the Elmas.

System: Pathfinder Second Edition
By the Narrative Declaration TTRPG group: Four adventures try to make it big within the decrepit streets of Outset's Pawn Pilaster. Catch this comedic but grim dark Pathfinder Second Edition TTRPG adventure and watch them all suffer!
All right, guys, are you ready for another exciting episode
of The Rock Goons?
Welcome, everyone, to another exciting episode of The Rock Goons.
Please forgive us.
We've been playing Kingmaker for all week.
We have.
I'm ready to go.
I didn't have my bit loaded up for the cheering.
You, like, frankly, look for the button.
We can redo it again.
Okay, yeah.
Are you ready?
Yeah.
All right, guys, Rock Goons.
Yippee!
Yippee!
Yippee!
I didn't even know what just happened.
All I heard was Rocky screaming.
Did you play something?
It was very low.
Oh, well, shit.
Play it again.
I'm so curious now.
Nothing's working today.
Try it one more time.
It did not go through.
Really?
I didn't hear that at all.
All I heard was screaming.
All right.
Well.
Regardless, it's so good to see everyone today.
Chat, I hope you've been doing awesome.
Those of you who are listening via podcast, maybe you're running down a sidewalk.
Maybe you're at work, realizing the crushing reality that maybe you'll be standing there
for the rest of your life.
Maybe you're also just having a nice, lovely drive going somewhere.
You know, just wherever you're at.
Excuse me.
I'm behind you, following you.
I know where you're going.
I know your secrets.
Yeah.
It's like, hey, nice tennis shoes today, podcast listener.
You know, all that.
You know, just.
Could you, could you not?
Could you not do that?
Could you like, relax, please?
Look, you want me to do it on stream or on the streets?
Oh, that's what I thought.
Anyway.
Welcome, everyone.
You know, the exciting episode of the raccoons where you can always support us at patreon.com
for slash narrative declaration.
And it is true.
We've been playing Pathfinder second editions Kingmaker.
And I finally got the first episode all edited up and stuff.
And multiple of our test sessions are on Patreon as well for the $1 tier.
And because the first episode is done, I didn't get the second one.
Nice and ready.
If you're watching this in real time in the far future, you could probably just check
a Patreon.
All the episodes are up already.
The first episode is going up for free on April 30th of 2024.
So this will definitely date the episodes and stuff.
But that's just to let everyone know that we're Kingmaker-ing.
And if you're there on stream and stuff for all of us, just kind of show it off a little
bit.
Here's the thumbnail.
Here's the thumbnail for the stream.
Look how cute everybody looks.
It's everyone here.
I'm being a player.
Thurston's Game Master.
And we also brought in Maddie.
Sorry, Cap.
Go ahead.
I was going to say, I bet folks can't guess who is who.
Yeah, Chad, who's who?
Who's who?
You didn't have to call yourself out like that, Cam.
Mommy orc is dumb.
I want to see if they can get it right.
Chad, which one of us is the skeleton?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Zorn's the plant.
It checks out.
Zorn's on Cab.
Cab, Zorn's on Cab.
Zorn's the skeleton.
Some say Cabal, so it fits your goth energy, so it works out.
Wait, wait, wait.
Quickly.
Everyone, use your skeleton voice.
That's right.
See?
See?
Cab, you can have your skeleton.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
If you want to watch the show and stuff, the first episode will be live on April 30th.
Along with all the other episodes, we'll be on Patreon and stuff like that.
So on the Adventurers tier that we have there, I think it's a $5 tier stuff.
So thank you for those who've been supporting us.
We wanted to do something like this for a good while, and I'm very happy that we have
such an amazing group able to go off and do so.
What you talking there?
I'm sorry.
I'm losing it because someone just said Cab is the one on the left.
Cab, congrats on your goth girl status.
Calling it, my girl.
I'm the goth from GF.
You figured it out.
I mean, those roles would have gone better if that were the case.
Shit.
Shit, fuck.
You'll have to just see what that means later, Chad.
Go look at the thing.
Speaking of things.
You'll have to see when you watch the first free episode of Kingmaker.
Yay!
That's right!
Speaking of things that always go well, we're going to start off introducing people, especially
Minerva.
It's me, Minerva, aka Party Demoness.
I'm a variety stream on Twitch, full-time content creator, and silly little art lady.
I play Grey Crocus, the level seven Null Ranger.
I'm very tired.
The one who always gives me a goal of a time is Cabal.
Speaking of tired.
Hello, my name is Cabal.
I'm a little bit quiet today, but I'm your favorite frightening cabinet cult leader and
hooded horror host here over on Twitch.
I also do horror content over on YouTube, along with a little bit of art, voice acting, and
I am playing Haleem Shibura, the level seven ghost magus of the Sparkling Targe.
And of course, we have our resident little guy, Froggy Lock.
Good time zone, everybody.
I'm Froggy Lock.
I am a professional artist, live tootie rigger, and a variety streamer here on Twitch, but
you can find me on all sorts of other social media platforms under the exact same handle.
Today, I will be playing Beatles above the level seven kobold investigator.
The one.
Tiger Woods.
Yeah.
I swear to God, Cab!
I swear to God!
I made it on time, okay?
I made it on time, okay?
Did you?
Uh-huh.
All right, so for context, chat.
359 is before four.
So for context, chat.
359 is before four.
Set up.
Set up, though.
Set up, though.
Usually what we do is that, and how we operate the show for live stuff, because we do the
show live on Twitch and YouTube and stuff just to keep one going.
I was kidnapped.
So basically, we, I always ask people to show up 30 minutes before, because in 30 minutes,
I like to set a timer.
It's all of you guys to show up.
And during that time, I'm setting everything up.
I'm getting everyone's avatars ready.
I'm getting all the little prep stuff done now that they're here, getting everything going.
And I can't go until people show up for a lot of it.
So arriving right when the stream starts makes me have to do a ton of work real fast.
So Froggy went to go play golf with a bunch of VTubers.
So we're giving her shit for it.
I can't believe that Froggy hung out with cute girls.
But we, we do it in a jest.
Like, things happen, people lose time.
So we're just giving her crap for it.
Just be cute like me.
Okay, so Zen called me and spammed me and she was like, come play.
And I was like, I have to record in an hour.
And she was like, that's an hour that you can golf.
And I was like, oh my God.
And then she put me in the game.
She sent me a request until I joined the game.
And then I ran the course and I beat the course before her and I made it at 359.
That's pretty classy.
Then it was pretty Zencore.
Yeah.
But of course, remember, one who was here earlier, even than me, and also who likes to
make her imaginations reality, it's SaltyJub.
It's me, SaltyShnub.
You can find me over Twitter at SaltyShnub.
You can also use support narrative declaration.
And through that, support me.
I will steal Zorin's money until he no longer realizes that I am.
What?
Hey, look what's that over there.
Wow, look at chat.
I play Heart.
Heart's a level seven big boy who can manipulate both earth and wood due to being a kineticist.
Yeah.
Yeah, he manipulates wood, Froggy.
Are you going to laugh?
What's the joke, Froggy?
What's the joke?
You want to tell me?
I don't get it.
What's the joke, Froggy?
What's the bitch, streamer?
By wood, Heart means peanuts.
Shut the fuck up.
I'm killing your character.
I want you to know, today I'm planning to kill your character.
Do it, do it, do it, I have a reserve, I have a reserve of kobold clones, do it.
Just be like the gamers, bam, another character sheet, I could do this all day.
This is why I canonized an abundant load of sisters.
Abundant load, huh?
I hate it here.
Soren, what are we doing today?
We're turning off where we last left off.
And of course, for those of you who join us on the live streams, we have the Hero Point bars down below.
They're not health bars, they're Hero Point bars.
If people do bit donations and do the hashtag for the character name, you can help them out with Hero Point bars.
They get Hero Points with your guys' donations or ever so often do something cool.
I'm like, that's rad, here's the Hero Point.
But of course, one way they can do that is recalling what happened in the last episode.
Salty, if you want to give us a quick summary of what happened last episode.
I sure can recall.
So, what happened last time was that Heart and his fellow companions, Beetle, Talim, and Gray, were joined by the other fellow adventurers that they had found previously.
Delvers of a sporadic team that had been spread out throughout the underground.
Here, in an underground forest, a thing that shouldn't exist, some kind of fey realm hidden underneath the city of Outset, where legends are made real.
So, they wandered through this weird wilderness, some place where they have heard that a hag is present.
They stumble across a wooden bridge, where they find a seaweed leshy.
And then, through that guidance of that seaweed leshy, they find, across that path, a leshy village, headed by one Mossberg.
Not clear if that is Mossbeard or Mossberg.
As we then realize that this man speaks with such a thick accent, that if he were to say anything, and you would understand it, it's a miracle.
But through the meaningful translation from Talim, they have realized that they share a common enemy.
This local hag, who is about to send a horde of the undead, a mass that could be considered a small army, has been patrolling this wilderness for quite some time.
Eating the living and grabbing leshy to bring to this hag.
The rotgoons do not...
I'm gonna tell the Clint, I'm gonna go and wean the lady, I'm doing well.
I'm gonna go and shoot the data.
Very boom.
Very boom hour.
Yeah.
Along with that, the rotgoons did what the rotgoons do best.
They ate the weird little creatures instead of human beings.
And therefore sided with these weird little leshy who objectively eats people by protecting their small village from what could be essentially 200 zombies that randomly just started to appear.
When a small carriage drawn by a massive cock was strolling by a nearby hillock, that cock-drawn carriage disappeared.
And as it did, the zombies did as well.
That is where this leaves off the rotgoons.
In a small, leshy village, surrounded by fey magic, and perhaps 100 dead corpses in a ditch.
That is indeed where you get left off.
You guys sleep.
You guys returned after saving the village from the zombie horde.
Quickly returned back to your dwellings, tired and exhausted from your ordeal of slaughtering so many zombies that were on the leshy's yard.
Damn it.
And I'll move you guys here, just for context here, because I assume you all have woken up inside the building itself here.
Give my hair a point.
All your friends are here.
Give my hair a point to Beetle.
What?
Yeah, but you earned it.
What?
I have three.
You have three.
So Beetle, get to get that point.
What?
What?
There you go.
What?
Why did you?
What?
Oh my.
Because you're going to die, Froggy.
Soren has it out for you today.
You're going to be in a good sport about the teasing and all that.
Yeah.
Oh, thank you.
You're fucked, dude.
Yeah, you're fucked.
Thank you for letting us tease you, friendo.
Now die.
Beetle goes out and he fashions a golf club from the tree branches and he just putts pebbles into the pond for the rest of the day.
Wella slaps it out of your hand.
There's no time for that.
It's like an unseen force has taken over this cute creature.
No, no.
He snaps your golf club in two.
And he goes like, meh, meh, meh, meh, meh.
Would you translate that?
I wouldn't be fucking late.
Such passive aggressive shit.
But in reality, what happens that Wella will put like things in front of your little golf club, you know, just start encouraging you to swing it.
You'll see that Garavan is still fast asleep.
Still, apparently exhausted and stuff from the journey you guys have been doing.
Shum has been just the little, little viney hands will just tap him and like just, you know how like those turtles, like that gift of that turtle, like doing their little hands on the other turtle's face.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He just does that to him.
Like he's just tapping his little fingers on him as if he's like checking on him a lot.
And Shum just, just mostly just taking care of Garavan and Shum will look at you go and go, Shum.
And Shum, as if not needing its implement anymore, will hand its flintlock pistol to Talim and go, Shum.
And Shum will look at the flintlock pistol and like look back up at Shum and he's like, I, we are not out of the woods yet.
I think you might still need that.
There's a bit in my head, though, just like he just takes out an AR-15, just like he didn't need it.
No, but Shum points to Garavan as if to indicate that he needs to divert his attention with that.
And so I'm going to shoot him like, Shum, and he'll go back to Garavan, either just leaving it with you or just on the ground and he'll just back.
Shum will pick up the flintlock pistol and like turn it over in his hands.
And you may notice that I didn't roll an athletics check because I needed 20.
20, oh, wait, no, wait, no, I don't, no, I don't have, um, you know, do I need to roll 13?
Hold on, I need to check real quick.
I think you need just assurance it, right?
I don't know.
I, I, I think it was something that we had.
I think it is that you need to roll a 15 and at the moment you can only crit fail.
Oh, no, I need to roll a 20.
Okay, no, we got it, we got it messed up last time.
Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So, uh, uh, Taline will attempt to pick it up.
And, uh, his hand will, will grab onto the flintlock and he like turns it over in his hand.
And like, is it like, like, what is he looking at, Zorin?
Is it just like a regular flintlock?
It's a regular old flintlock.
Uh, you see that there's an engraving on the side.
Um, engraving on the side that looks like an eye.
Looks like an eye with sort of like a cross that's behind it.
And, uh, you see it just kind of like etched into the side.
Can I roll a knowledge society?
Absolutely.
I got a total of a 24 with 11 on the dice.
Even with your 24, you're not exactly sure what this is, but what you can imagine what the sign indicates that it's a form of a cult of some sign.
Um, and, uh, you don't know much of anything else about it.
We will kind of like shrug and, uh, set the, uh, the flintlock in his lap, uh, as he has been kind of like hunched over, uh, with a few small implements, uh, working on the ghostly, uh, whip sword that he usually keeps at his side.
He seems to be, uh, with a tiny delicate hammer and a chisel, just, uh, working away on the blade, making, uh, small little, uh, engravings.
So with that, and for the rest of you,
Nomadeth will look at you all after he's like also helping out with Gervin, keeping him comfortable.
He throws a blanket over him and goes,
Well, I thank you for being so valiant out there.
Several of those undead filth tried to get inside of here and try to go around you all, but I took care of them post-haste.
Oh no.
As far as I can tell, like, the creatures outside all morning, I believe it's morning, it's hard to tell anymore in these caverns,
that they've been singing your praises.
Or, well, in their way, they've been dancing them.
Huh.
Beetle comes inside from fishing, and, uh, he comes, by fishing, wait, no, golfing, golfing, different sport, sorry.
I thought about the river and I thought about stick and I was like, fishing, yeah.
Fish!
Uh, he comes in from his golfing and,
and, oh, Talim, hey, sorry to interrupt, guys.
I just, okay, so I've been counting my rounds between knocking some rocks into the water,
and, uh, my Giselle is way better than my crossbow, but I only have eight rounds left.
Do you think you could help me make some, Talim?
Talim kind of, like, leans up, um, with his, uh, tiny little, like, chisel and, uh, hammer, like, each in, uh, each in a hand,
and he looks back at the sword, he's like, I am a little indisposed at the moment,
but I'm sure at some point in time I can, if we are able to gather some supplies, uh, maybe from the village,
I can try to put something together.
That would be great, because I don't know how much longer we're going to be down here.
Like, I mean, Talim, you, you could, like, write down what you need, and maybe me and Beetle can go and fetch some things,
and maybe you could do the, the alchemy thing.
Yeah.
Make, make some rounds for him.
Talim, like, runs, uh, a hand over the, uh, over the chainmail veil, uh, underneath his visor,
and he's like, I suppose I could, and he'll reach into his robes, and he pulls out, um, a small,
a book that you've probably seen him, like, scribbling in or, like, writing in at various points in time,
and he flips through a couple of pages, um, until he, like, scans a finger long, and he's like,
so these are the things that I will need for, uh, for, uh, powder rounds.
And, uh, he will, like, list them off.
Like, he's kind of expecting somebody to write them down.
Yeah, yeah.
Um.
I wonder if putting together black powder would be complicated down here.
Maybe the less you have something that could let you craft a unique firearm ammunition,
if we can't pull off the black powder?
Maybe they've got something, I don't.
You can probably, uh, since they have a village here, you can probably ask around one of them.
I think one of them runs a little, little thing down here.
I think he's, uh, collected various little bits and bobs.
Maybe he might have something you could break down.
Yeah.
Uh, I mean, we'll still need to maybe find some kind of ore, you know, to mine some for Talib's craft.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah, you can mine.
You got the big shovel hands.
Yeah, mine for craft, yeah.
Yeah!
And, uh, that would probably take some refining.
Maybe we could use, you can use stone shot, or maybe if we have various bits of scrap that we could gather from whatever corpses are around,
we could, you know, rifle through their pockets as well.
That's true.
If you can make-
There are lots of dead people.
I don't know if you could, but if you can make bullets out of rocks, Hart will, like, lean down towards the floor and make a little piece of rock slide out of the earth itself with his earth kineticism, and just pull out a perfect little tiny square.
Great's kind of just watching this, like, from, like, where she's sitting, um, she's closer to, like, the wall.
She's tired.
She's kind of loafing.
Uh, and she's just, she's just smiling, watching them go in their antics.
She's just happy.
She's just content.
Let's, let's check in with the Lushies and let's see what they have in terms of materials.
They kind of owe us.
Uh, do you wanna, do you wanna go do that, Beetle?
Do you, do you wanna, do you wanna go gather cool things?
Uh, yeah.
Yeah.
You wanna go and do things?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, like, now?
Like, right now?
Yeah.
Like, right?
Yeah, we could, we could go, like, maybe as.
You could just go, stop talking and just go, you two.
Oh, my goodness.
It's like, no one wants to take the initiative.
It's like, hey, you wanna go eat?
Yeah, I wanna go eat.
Do you wanna go eat?
Like, like, sitting there, he's got, like, tools in each hand.
Like, he's, like, in the process of something.
And then, like, like, hey, can you make this?
He's like, yes, I will need these things.
And then, just, like, stand there and look at him.
He's got tools in each hand.
And he's like, I will need these things to complete the task that you've handed me.
Yeah.
Did they just leave?
I think they didn't even ask.
Well, no, like, like, he, he listed, like, he listed the stuff off.
Yeah.
You know, he listed.
We got a shopping list.
Yeah.
So, like, it's one of the things of, like, are they going to remember?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, totally.
Gray is going to, like, give a little, a little giggle and, uh, look into him.
He's like, do you want me to go, like, uh, follow them?
Do you want me to go follow them, keep an eye on them?
If you are willing to, I am a little involved in the process at the moment.
But I would be appreciated to make sure they don't, don't know, come back with a handful of rocks.
I can't promise that either way, but I'll go keep an eye on them and make sure they don't, you know, get in trouble.
I feel like that is the most that we can ask.
You guys enter into the Lessie village.
You see that, uh, due to your valiant efforts, none of the buildings were destroyed.
And for context, I even had HP for all of them, you know, because the zombies are going to come in and destroy all of them and everything else.
You guys didn't even let the zombies get past the river.
So, you guys, so the sunflower Lessie is looking, you all, they hug each other and they do a little dance, you know, a little, you know, they're elated to see you.
Uh, you see the cactus Lessie kind of fold his arm and go, but he kind of give, he kind of looks over, but get you, gives you guys a thumbs up.
And of course, Mossbird, the Lessie village elder with his giant moss beard, uh, will greet you all.
Of course, flanked by his Lessie guard, uh, we'll be like, baby, you, but you all did a pretty good job.
You know, we're all very grateful when you've done.
Thanks, Mossbird.
Uh, I don't know how much longer we'll be able to stay here because we're trying to get up to the surface.
Like we said, uh, I was wondering, I hate to ask of you anything really.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But, uh, would it be possible to maybe use any supplies that you have around here to maybe make some ammunition for my firearm?
Yeah.
Do you have things to blow up?
Hmm.
Then he kind of rubs, you know, he kind of rubs his chin through his moss beard.
He's like, yeah, well, we, we all pick up a kind of thing here and there.
You got to ask old Jack.
If you ask old Jack of his, of his, of his, of his stuff, he runs, he runs a little, little, uh, little inventory.
You know, we, we, ever so often, you know, little weird looking folk, like y'all, I had to come on down here.
And when they all come on down here, they sometime expire.
Then we eat their flesh.
Well, we can't eat their stuff.
So we got to take all that stuff.
We put it in a big old bag.
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
Um, um, I hate to interrupt, but every single leshy token is invisible to me.
Oh, I try.
I don't refresh any, but just refresh your browser.
I can't believe they have stealth plus the stealth versus nose.
Is the Mossberg in the room with us right now?
Like, just Grace going around.
Just, it's been an illusion the entire time.
Oh, no.
So I did refresh.
I did refresh.
It logged me out.
Give me a sec.
Sorry, chat.
Sorry, listeners.
Things happen.
That's what happens when you do everything live and online.
But just for you, Gray, you just all of a sudden just, ah, fog.
Oh, no.
The Alzheimer's.
Oh, I'll get you followed.
Don't worry.
No, no.
Mossberg will basically direct you all over to another pair of leshy.
You see one that looks like a Venus flytrap leshy.
But two flytraps for hands and one in the back of its head.
Uh, have a conversing with another leshy that looks like it has a pumpkin for a head in various vines for the rest of its body.
More of a skeletal-like pattern than anything with a ribcage and stuff.
But its gangly nature seems to be indicating to the other one they're having a conversation.
And one's not quite as happy about it.
Um, but that is the one that Mossberg motions over going,
That's Jack over there.
He don't want to come and have all the stuff for you.
Just let him know I sent you, and he'll try and figure something out for you.
Thank you.
Beetle's going to walk up to them with the others,
and then proceed to stand there and stare with intent between the two bickering leshies.
You see the flytrap leshy is, like, trying to talk over to the other jack-o'-lantern one.
And it's like, like, come on, man.
Just, just a little bit of it.
You've got to have more in store.
In the jack-o'-lantern one, like, I've been trying to figure out a voice for him the entire time.
Get it done.
Wow!
That's a strange thing for the jack-o'-lantern.
Wow, you see!
Oh, perfect! Perfect!
You see, I have no more!
I have no more of it!
It's all been gone ever since the stores went away,
and since some of the other ones were taken off!
Uh, what are you looking for?
Amber!
More amber than the eyes could see!
We had a natural store, and it's a lovely treat for all of us.
It's quite prized for us all.
We've all ran out of it!
Damn, if only we had some amber.
Oh!
Gray's head slowly turns back to where they've been staying.
Oh!
Well, we heard that you've got a big collection of wares,
uh, which might be useful to us as we prepare to set out on our journey for the surface again.
Uh, we happen to have some amber.
Could we trade?
You have amber?
Uh, we have some, a little bit that we found.
How much you have?
Uh, Talim's got it all, I think.
Which isn't great, because we're gonna have to peel it out of his cold, dead hands.
Your friend's dead?
Yeah.
Oh, my condolences.
He takes his pumpkin head off and puts it to his chest.
Don't worry about it.
He typically goes well with it.
Yeah, he's fine.
Oh, wow.
Well, if you bring the amber here, basically, you can have anything you want in the hut.
And he motions over to a, uh, to a leaf thing.
Where there's a whole bunch of stuff that you can just see.
It's just like a hoarder's house in there.
Oh, jeez!
Thank you, Jack!
A faction store.
It all depends how much you have.
Okay.
Well, let's go check how much we have with the leaf.
Let's go check.
Greg just groans and turns around.

sitting well not like sitting like hovering off the ground and he has his ass coil out in front
of him and he has been uh etching uh little runes along the various segments of the blade as it is
currently um unbound in like more of its like whip form because i am currently using my magical
crafter feet because i also have the inventor feet i made a formula of wounding rune and so
kalima is currently in the process of etching a uh rune of wounding into his uh his whip sword
he's just like hammering or what he's just hammering away with it he's got like a little
chisel um he has what looks to be like a sapphire and various pieces of amber like laid out along
with various implements that looks like he's going to you know grind some of that down or that you
like but powderize it uh as he uh etches out little um what is it like uh uh indentations uh to be
filled with the the powdered substance
and as you're doing that um you'll notice that uh shoom is futzing over garvin a lot more than
usual and you see that shoom go shoom shoom and he'll point to garvin like shoom
like he looks like he's trying to ignore shoom and then like it finally gets to the point where he
like turns around and he like looks and he's like to see what is actually like going on uh rather than
being hunched over his work with your with your vision you're able to see the garvin is sweating
and panting a little bit more you see the garvin's been fairly silent through your guy's journey
um usually you would think that he was just been exhausted or tired which is true but now when you
look at him he his condition seems to be worsening you see shoom has changed his bandages have done
like whatever sort of nature stuff he can to try to help help with his ailments and stuff but you've
noticed that garvin's just not doing great um so he will set down um his his ghostly tools uh basically
like on the blade and he will start to hover over to like look at garvin and uh is oh god what's his name
the um nomadeth the uh guy yeah yeah um he will look up at uh did you say it was now death or
yeah nomadeth yeah nomadeth okay nomadeth yeah he'll look up and he'll be like it looks like your
companion is not doing too well he's there do you have anything that can possibly suit him um
because like clean is just like he's he's kind of like ah we've been trying to keep this guy alive
the whole time yeah he's not looking too hot oh well it seems shoom and and willow there's been out
and about trying to get various materials where you've all been sleeping and whenever you guys were
away we've been doing our best to keep my companion alive but it seems that if we don't try to get him to
a better facility soon he might perish down here but it is a life of a delver and he kind of like
puts a hand up to his chest like in remembrance of friends of old
it's what he signed up for say that he's right there
he's like he can hear you do it
um
oh do what we came for
i i um looking to see if i've got yeah i did
talim just kind of like looks at the guy uh helplessly and looks around to you know like
where uh beetle and everybody have headed off and he's like and he'll look at uh nomadeth he's like
one of my companions is a very skilled
physician let's say and perhaps they can help him in some way shape or form i i have
nothing within my repertoire that will be able to work with his
flesh
uh
as you can see i am bereft
hmm
it's like he you see he kind of
he kind of hums to himself and just looks at his friend it's like
we'll try to find a solution don't you worry mr talim we will try not to be a burden
and at that point the rest of the party arrives
talim
talim is like over here and he's like hovering uh over uh gervin and he is like has like a hand to his
veil like he's thinking um and the uh like the the the bag of amber and like the gyms and like his
sword everything is sitting over where he was um
what's going on
yeah uh talim will turn around he's like it appears that
gervin is not doing too well uh
i don't know that namadeth here has
estimated that he may not be long for the world of the living
we'll just say that in front of the guy what's wrong with you
he puts his hands on his ghostly hips and like looks down at the like that like unconscious like
feverish gervin and then like looks at beetle and it's just like i the effects are the facts
do any of you have lanterns i'm not going to sugarcoat it sugarcoat these do you have a lantern
like looks around and he's like i don't have a lantern i have fire magic
not good okay can beetle go around and collect enough rocks to stand up a torch near one of you
should have an ever-burning torch i i have an ever-burning torch it looks directly at talim
yeah that can work yeah yeah that for that grabby grabby like the like wrapped up torch on his belt
yeah and the talim will just be like um suppose give me one moment and he will actually spend the
the 10 minutes to make the torch corporeal and then hand it over to um and he just like stands there and
he's like this is like this is when you are like 10 years old and you go to your older siblings room
and be like hey could you like turn on the thing the thing doesn't turn on could you come out and
help me while they are actively busy
yeah and so like talim stands there for 10 minutes holding out an ethereal torch
until it turns corporeal all right just staring beetle in the eyes yeah yeah beetle takes it and he
rams it down into the circle of rocks that he's made just to like hold it up uh and then he's going
to take out a a nice blue glowing mushroom that he got from inside the caves and using chromotherapy he's
going to grab that mushroom shove it in his mouth chew it up spit it out and then like grind it to dust a
dusty pulpy dust against the ground and like sprinkle it like salt bay over the torch turning
the torch's flame this nice luminescent blue and the air is going to get a lot colder around
the torch just beetle will step back and go there we go i learned that when i died that should help
with the fever now let me see does he have an infection anywhere and beetle's gonna start inspecting
his wounds roll me a medicine check i learned that when i died just took me out
so beetle could you like explain what's happening yeah so okay you see when i died i realized when i
saw all the colors there's a spiritual energy in every single color yeah that makes sense and you can
see that energy in in everybody there's like a a life force that has a certain color and if you apply
like the opposing color that you can see to somebody's life energy it has a different effect so example
the color blue it's it's cold it's a little icy you know it helps fight the heat yeah red is opposite
red it's gonna make your blood flow like crazy yeah yeah yeah yellow is for pee no no no no no right
yellow is for the mind yellow is for sanity ah that makes way more sense yes yeah yeah like like
talks over his shoulder to heart it's like you're thinking of kidney stones
oh yeah maybe just kind of grumble she's just like can we not talk about that i got a total of 32
on that medicine check you find out that uh garen here has because with your 32 is a pretty good role
you see that whatever he fought with uh when you found him inside the cave has been slowly but
surely infecting him you would survive from his battle wounds and stuff like that whatever sword
or whatever weapon it was was infected with something was was rusty or something else this
this guy has an extremely bad fever going on and he's infected with something you can't quite 100
identify what exactly what it is with the conditions and everything but you know what to do that basically
be like i'm you can take care of him to help delay the inevitable but you know you don't have the the
things and the materials and stuff like that with just your healer's kit to 100 like just kill him
right off the bat he need he needs an actual like medical facility yeah to the the stay in and rest and
get it all processed out so you can definitely help him here um and with your medicine check you feel
like some of the mushrooms that you have could potentially help out as well and give you a bonus
mm-hmm okay i think he's fighting an infection but i can't fully place off of his symptoms what exactly
is in his system i can i can treat the fever but i won't be able to treat the infection directly
we need to bring him up to the surface all right is there like maybe
some kind of ingredients you need for that like right now so at least he'll make it until we can
make it to the surface i thankfully i picked a lot of mushrooms while we were in that cave
like a lot of them yeah i think if we just keep the blue light over him that will help fight the
heat of the fever and kind of freeze the fever out damn if you learned this when you died you should
die way more dude what it's a snapping beetle's neck more knowledge yeah dude like maybe i want to die
die more like i learned way more now um are you i don't i don't think that's how that works i mean
if you think about it when i woke up after i died i could make rocks move no but death make sure that
this blue light is on him i'll keep coming back every now and then and replenishing the the mushroom powder
all right don't you want to like stay here with i said no but death heart
not but death will don i go yes yes i am i'll help out in any way i can little tiny dog
excellent keep that torch nearby event perfect you're doing great he just holds it
like it's his is his sole mission to hold this torch i would die for him i need you to know that
i love him we need your amber yeah we need it to lima's like gone and like sat down he's like
working uh like on his sword with the the little chiseled hammer and he's got like his stuff set out
and they're just like we need your amber he immediately like his hand is like a cobra lashes out and snatches the
bag and pulls it back close and he like wait wait wait coils and he's like wait hey
to leave
he's like i thought i told you to go find things to craft bullets and now you need amber what what is
your skill it is payment for such things listen yes we need the amber in order to get the things to make
bullets yeah actually you should come with us put down what you're doing and come with us there's
this guy named jack and he has a horde of things he's picked off of all the dead adventurers that have
like happened upon here over the years so there could be some really neat stuff in there and he's willing
to trade it for amber yeah
you come on to leave you do realize think of it applies to create shot
is minimal in the face of a singular piece of this right there might be something better that jack has
that's even better than regular shots to leave and there might be something there that's worth more
than this amber
you won't know until you look think of it as a possible investment
you'd think about it maybe has bullets that shoot guns
yes because i would like to be shot in the back with a whole gun
it's like he turns and looks at beetle directly in both of his eyes i've only missed twice beetle
says head on if i had an electron piece for every time i've been shot in the back that you've missed
i'd have two but it's strange that it happened twice it was an accident can we take your amber please
clean like we'll grab the bag and like stand up so the bag is outside of beetle's reach and we'll be
like let's go together yeah
no but that's hold that lamp hold that torch like your life depends on it he's standing he's put his
heels together it's absolutely dark it doesn't but garevins does so like same thing bye
as as like they leave on their neurodivergent journey um he like floats behind and like
as he floats by great he looks at her it's like we're supposed to keep them in line
she just shrugs and smiles her tail's kind of wagging a little bit
hey beetle i'm pretty happy that you get to be friends with so many people they call you their dog
uh yeah yeah like friend like buddy like my dog what is that what it means i thought they just
were mistaking me for like gray's child i don't know dude i don't know what dog
beetle you are my child like i'm not like that
i don't know i have two mobs
and both are shooters
that's where we get it from beetle
my mobs for my mom yeah you all cross back through the village again after now collecting
talim and uh you see that jack will look at you all and go oh you brought more amber for me hmm
that's right jack can we see the stash absolutely and he kind of walks over to the hut uh and he
unfurls it's like curtain of leaves and it goes behold and you see it it's there's piles of junk
basically i'm just random adventurer things of backpacks supplies just the shafts that end up
into spears and you know halberds swords just everything just like these guys have been carrying this
stuff just everywhere with them and you would just have to sort through some of this stuff to see
like the find anything like when i say hoarder's house it's like that but it's just a lot that's just
kind of packed out into this hut into its own little separate piles oh it's like the scene
from thor ragnarok behold my stuff pretty much that's pretty much it sorry jack switch the camera
there so uh he kind of motions forward and go like pick out what you like oh thank you you see
this guy does not take inventory um it's okay if we pull some stuff outside to
yeah yeah take a look at the merchandise get out get out in the in the skylight
all right amazing uh beetle wall get in there and start digging
so for this what exactly are you guys looking for beetle is particularly looking for i don't think
he'll find anything better than his plus one striking giselle but if he does find a firearm that's
better alternatively he's looking for ammo for that giselle and he hasn't upgraded his armor
in a long time if he could find any armor that looks stronger than his studded leather
that's what he's looking for okay okay ammo stronger shoot shoot stronger ammo stronger leather armor
yeah let's go to make a list for me for their heart what are you potentially looking for i so
i need i need only one thing uh but then i realized no i should probably help everyone
else getting things because i don't need additional stuff um so i will aid beetle in finding bullets
since okay if the warnings are true we will need it okay okay you're gonna help out gray anything you
potentially try to look for uh gray would be looking for potions and a uh healer kit uh for her battle
medicine uh so that's what she would be looking for okay okay it's a lean jack will look jack will look to
you and it goes hey uh they won't they won't wrong say that you were dead but damn what you got in the
back there you kind of like points to your satchel or bag full of amber how much you got
um to lean will like heft the bag and he's like uh it's like i have a full bag
oh he rubs his little vine hands together like let me see the good let me see the goods come on
just do no transaction without representation hold the bag close and he will just like do like that
like yeah you're protecting would he deliver like the steaks and like the briefcase at the fancy
restaurants he's like oh it's like a pulp fiction opening moment just oh you're like he's like oh
you could have your whole pick in there with all of that
me will like will quickly uh like flip the bag shut he's like let's see what you have in stock first
before we do any business fine could we also get a special deal for helping to save the village
probably diplomacy oh
anybody else want to help help out can all assist with the allure of a giant bag of amber
that's a total of 28 you to lean uh you have any skills to help out like with shopping and stuff like
that um i have uh crafting so i can assess items uh things like that um i i'll just use your crafting
with a plus two bonus because you have the amber nice oh heck yeah
how do i do this yeah so basically when you roll the window that shows up you just
put plus two and confirm it in the roll thing and uh the click roll okay that's how you can put the
bonus wait that's that if anything else just roll it and we'll add two here there you go
yeah you got a total of a 28. that works out like he kind of sits there like yeah yeah it's just
yeah i guess you get like a couple extra things i guess yippee thanks jack you're the best i'll
just need checks rocks
does he have curly little feet yeah curly little vine feet yeah uh so talim um if you
don't have an idea of what you want to look for inside that stash so the original idea was to use um
the the powder gemstones um as part of the creation process of the rune of wounding but in the process
if talim could find a greater quantity of spell components or things like that that he could use
instead um to kind of like uh as a as a proxy look yeah as a proxy but he's like trying to get like
more bang for his buck than what he would for like using the amber directly yeah so with all that hey chat
you're all chatter roonies i need your help oh no
that's the one thing i probably been blowing your ears out the entire time chat let me adjust that
audio oh no yeah let me know i had the amplifier thing on because of an old setup or whatever and
that's been on for like a couple episodes um so hey chat
how much ammo does beetle find give me a number oh please oh please hey beetle roll me a perception check
you got it
i'll take a suggestion out from chat i'm gonna use a hero point okay you use a hero point for that okay
that's your 21 year old 21. not 20. not 20. not 20. yeah
you find with your natural 20 and it basically was gonna gauge some things of the average number
that i was seeing from chat they were going low yeah chat was gonna low for you so you so all this is
remnants from adventures that you're finding like you you're able to help everybody find stuff
heart go ahead and roll me your perception jack because you can even add a little bit more
to this oh i rolled a 15 for total 26. and with your aid check that pushes it up even more you will
find nearly everything that you need here so these are from past adventurers that have delved down into
this area now you're not going to find full dragon plate or some stuff in here but you're
you're gonna you're not gonna find level 20 stuff in here wondrous items but what you are going to
find like if you want something you more than likely will find it here okay okay so for ammo
you take as much as you want because there are multiple bags of bullets different types of rounds
ammunition stuff like that uh you just can't get like super explosive rounds or stuff like that like
still simple in mind but right right if you want anything special that's a good way good way to do it
if you just want to re-up your stuff you're full up actually have the full list of ammunition right
there froggy i put in an r oh my god i thank you thank you oh you're the best
gray please please roll me a perception check you got it rolling i got a total up 24. with the roll of
beetle and you're 24 you do find a healer's kit yay in fact you find a healer's kit
expanded so i'll add my hands together happy that's your inventory pretty much it has kits of
bandages herbs etc helps out with that gives you a plus one bonus to the such checks and if you wear
your healer's toolkit you'll replace as part of an action that uses it so she'll pull it out of the
she'll pull it out of the the heap and like her tail is just going she's very happy
that's what you find for that um you'll find ammo for your gizelle beetle
i okay so there's this there's something called blister ammunition and it's loaded
with alchemically processed irritants such as pollen pepper or formic acid if they were full of pollen
because we're in a leshy village yeah that'd be cute that'd be cool could i get some blister ammunition
let's see if it works for you let's see attack someone with allergies
i'm very curious to see if it does work for your gun i'm gonna mess with your stuff here real quick
hold on it does it makes people itch uncontrollably all right you little fucking gremlin uh
yeah it looks awful you're the goddamn devil yeah this looks awful you find you find a pouch
dazzled oh my god you find a pouch of 30 blister ammunition thank you so i've added that for you
and as for armor for everyone here you do find an upgrade to your armor oh so basically whatever you
find whatever you have uh basically add on a potency room plus one we're just working to have the
equivalent of that so i'll help out with everyone here so i'm going to go to your potency room plus
one if you know how to do that please do that so so you can help me out if you don't know what's your
what's equivalent for armor for heart i already have it sorry oh yeah because you have like the
sports clothing and stone armor and stuff yeah so that's all you get really but one thing
one thing heart can get i've never seen this uh what what thing can you add onto your armor oh
like a rune yes like a rune i'll give you i'll give heart a rune okay okay okay okay okay i want one thing
only one thing um there there is an armor property room here let me let me find this
shit it it's the it's it's the good shit um
i want yes i want uh
sorry for the shopping episode everyone i usually like to not do these on on shows and streams but
uh uh this one's important yeah yeah it's not fun watching people do shopping i i 100 percent
understand and for listening don't worry but this is important sorry sorry i want the aim aiding rune
the aim aiding the aim aiding rune what this does is that i no longer count as uh
like obscuring terrain for my allies meaning that my allies can shoot through me and enemies don't
get cover very good yeah so now heart can stand in the face of someone and beetle can just shoot
at heart and the bull just goes around him your armor lets beetle curve the bullet yeah oh my god i am
now i am now i am now a gravitational force for projectiles okay does everyone figure out okay
i see beetle needs help i'll get you figured out i do a potency rune you just get a plus one to your ac
basically uh thank you be sure to make sure the diamond for your armor is selected or else it won't
actually affect you i was gonna ask that because i had never seen that before yeah that means you're
investing so in pathfinder second edition like they have a limit to how many magic stuff you can
really put on yourself and that's the investing system so you can't just stack a billion magic
items and become god like you turn god basically level 20 anyway but like it's so you just at the
start of the game can't just go and then you're you're gonna just win the game right um so invest you
can only invest yourself with so many items can't remember exactly the amount of number but that's just to
to be like hey you can't have like a billion rings on your hand with different you know stuff yeah
you know equivalent like your body can't handle such power you know so explodes luckily for me i don't
have a body so that so everyone's armor bling you got upgraded uh i don't think you're up there for the
weapons just yet uh to get another striking thing but uh you find all of that uh minerva uh for gray
you got a healer's kit and everyone also finds potions yay so good hey chat what level healing
potions would you give our adventurers what would you allow them
i look at you with my big my big eyes my big wet eyes
i bat my lashes at you do you have to say they're wet now when you're like i've got my
lashes i just picture like like gross wet you just blank on
he's got like the big like teary puppy dog eyes
please say six please say six please say six
you find lesser healing potions
dang it
how many you thought you find six and you also find uh what's the equivalent for you to lean
potions of unlife oil of unlife oil of unlife so what i'm gonna do i'm gonna put this on beetle here
real quick just gonna just gonna mark that just so i can kind of have it and uh for you to lean
you find two oils of unlife nice you also get lesser undead adventures leave their stuff behind
i have added two of them to you also claim you are over encumbered
you have a lot of stuff to heart i do have stuff to heart yeah all of my stuff is ethereal
yeah so if everyone already added healing potion lesser territory ghost stuff that'd be awesome
yo awesome thank you for doing that for me all right are you guys looking for anything else or do
you think you're pretty good with that oh and to lean you do find magical components thanks to beetles
check and also thanks to chat oh thank you chat you've given me magical components to
make my funny whip sword yeah okay there's nothing cooler than my giselle there so that's everything
that i needed or wanted awesome there was six healing potions right yes so that was one and
you can give one extra to one other person so
well technically three so everyone get everyone gets two just to lean gets none of them so yeah
if you want to split it up because to lean can't use it yeah he can't use them
unless you want to get to lean one in case one of you go down and he can use it on you how many walls
of the dead adventures family pictures are inside oh yeah you finally collect somebody like some dog
and their kids just no you find one one chopped off hand skeleton that's holding a picture of his
you know of his husband and stuff just damn oh my god but i i will give my
my my second one to to lean in case someone does fall down yeah okay just go ahead and maneuver the
stuff yourself if you don't mind and uh okay as far as i can tell i think you guys are good to go
right yep but all the stuff you want be sure to adjust your inventory because uh beetle you're also
encumbered you can throw stuff in your backpack and make sure you're wearing stuff yeah that's gonna
uh that's gonna affect you you got a lot of shit dude do i it's like you still you got like a
finely crafted short store still in your inventory all this other stuff like yeah i keep forgetting to
sell it i haven't given you a lot of opportunities to barter anyway so uh
maybe i could just leave it here with this lushy it's only five gold yeah you just leave it here yeah
he'll just leave it here what else can i just leave here uh don't really need this crowbar i never use it
we will never use crowbars again yeah i i will just point at a door and go disappear and the door is
gone when did we get medicals when did we get handcuffs when we killed the police oh yeah
that's a thing to say out loud yeah when we murdered the police you're our heroes
shorty i mean grand the police was corrupted trying to kill you but still
yeah but with that just you know jack will look at you all you know you're going like okay the goods
the goods the goods come on come on come on papa
so he will like salivating everything and like look at like the the bag of amber and and so
zoran do i do i from my mercantile knowledge and like aging calls everything do i feel like we've
we've made out like bandits uh what equivalent role you think you want to give me um
uh i the only thing i think i have relevant is crafting for like yeah probably crafting like okay
see if you made it see if you get a good idea of a deal
and i rolled a total of a 20. the best deal you've ever made
and to limbo will happily hand over the uh the bag of um
uh the the bag of amber as he like looks around and he's like you know you drive a hard bargain uh
uh you know i you're quite the cunning businessman i feel like you've made a quite a hefty profit this
day this day get on straight he snatches it from you and he kind of looks into it like ah he starts rubbing it
he takes a little chunk out and he bites into it and crunches it he's in bliss it's like the best
thing he's ever tasted he's like
oh and he skulks back inside going you're done right yeah thank you so much you don't need anything
else you yeah i don't i don't think so he points to you uh greg going like you don't need any projectiles
or whatever right now you good you're good solid no no no no she's kind of holds up her mom
baby closes his curtains okay
well
this is great i got this funny smelling ammo and a burn
where'd that burn come from you hear that
you're what to leave uh looks over at beetle and like the the bag of like
funny smelling ammo is like were you able to find any regular shot oh yeah some of those too
okay i got this heart holds out the rune that he applied to his
to his cloak uh except it visually is like a little talisman of a guy with an arrow in his back
oh you're reminding me of to lean oh
yeah it really does look like him huh yeah bird is laughing
and like to lean it seems like he's in a super great mood like he's you know like it's probably
like one of the the happiest you know like moments that you've seen him yeah and then heart says that
and the light dies in his eyes again no
yeah heart puts it on his belt yeah
hey like he's crutch he's like he has like a various pouches um what you can assume are like
magical components and stuff like that that he's like holding like in his arms like cradling and he's just
like it is like shoulders droop a little bit heart hearts in their monologue is i love my friends
moss bog approaches uh the party moss bog yeah mossberg sorry mossberg is funnier to me
my brother i slurred his name without the accent in my mind so that's how he came out so moss bird
comes up to all of you going like there's uh you're a legend that no you're my rich vote five
caves i'm about gonna get you right down here but of course you guys can stay here until we're ready
to move out we're within a week we're gonna be leaving this place we don't want that old nasty
old weight coming on back trying to go get us again yeah yeah yeah what you said what do you say
to lean to lean like we have about a week before they are ready to move out that should give us some
time to get some things done oh stabilize gervin to the point where he can be moved without endangering
him and for me to finish the things that i'm working on oh incredible yeah sounds great marshberg
he's narrowed his eyes at you what what all right if you all do little little fellers need something
you just you just come over and let me know we're going oh thanks and i'll go get all ready just
remember you know that cave and stuff is going to be down the stream and you're going to have to get
an alphabet and head up north uh he points a direction indicating that he somehow knows that
that is north yeah yeah i assume he ain't an adventure that had some sort of magnet on them
basically if the translate for those who can't understand my slur that um he he is basically saying
he he his uh his other other folks in the village like he sent people out to go scout he's found the
exits of this place for you and he and he's basically directing you where you need to go and he's going
to pack up the village within a week so you have that much time to either prep or rest or deal with
anything uh before and you can leave at any time oh
what do you think that gives us plenty of time so much time
hey beetle yeah are you gonna hard smiles and and leans down a little bit and he it gives beetle this like
and look are we gonna go talk to that
to the seaweed one what in the lake in the river are you gonna talk to that one yeah why yeah
you're like mermaids right yeah but we're leaving yeah but we in like a week
oh is that what he said we're all leaving now no
as beetle figures it out as it might take a while we're gonna go on break
very big everybody
yeah yeah i just like listing off my favorite slurs to get some practice so basically
we're not serious by the way yeah we're not serious yeah so you guys have that's that's what he tells us
us to say or else he beats us as a game master he needs to be as a game master soren always needs
to be up on his fantasy racism no holy i don't remember what it's like to play pathfinder without
the feel of a taser anymore this is the stream sponsors are watching just going well
this is a professional thank you chat for doing plus what it might as well we're encouraging people
to do that so that you just so we just look over go okay
be disappointed in the entertainment i'm chat so so fellas you all after finally getting equipped
and having an exchange of amber for mighty equipment and weapon upgrades and items and such
to lean you have been crafting a wounding room to your weapon uh would you like to make me your
crafting check for that i will make my crafting check for that yes because it is a level seven
room that means the dc is 23 that i have to make on my crafting check oh go ahead and roll
yes you're assurancing you're assurancing you're assurancing you're assurancing you right yeah guess what i have
assurance
as you're etching your weapon you notice that nomadath is still dutifully holding the torch near his
friend uh yeah but as he looks over to you to lean as you've been diligently working he goes master to
lean oh you uh me see kind of ponders a little bit are you an etcher by chance
to lean like as he's like like pink in a way like he's like i have been uh taught in a
very numerous skills in craftsmanship i suppose you could say i am skilled in etching oh i apologize
master to lean i was meaning an etcher an etcher is a the warrior who practically etchers in various
runes and their weapon and allows them to achieve great fields i do not know that you're a warrior of old for it or not
um can i roll a
society check to know more about etchers or like if they're just like mistaken uh magi or
yes okay i got a 17 you barely know what he's talking about but you you you have an idea that
what he is meaning is somebody who who uses runes to the cast things like uh instead of like somebody
who's like a like a magus like you who neatly like has magic and has learned it and you can you naturally
flow with it this would be somebody like regardless of what type of weapon they have
or anything else that they pretty much etch runes on the certain things to do different properties
like if they do a sword they'll like do an attack to maybe like make it go farther you know make their
sword range because the blade will stretch and do it and the rune dissipates like it's it's weird stuff
like that uh that you've heard of people like that and that fits the description
to lean kind of like tilts his head and like as he's continuing to work like he he's carrying on
the conversation he's not ignoring now that he's like i am not quite that i believe i fall into morris
what collectively known as uh magi or a magus i my mixing of magic and martial is integral to my skill set
however an etcher is not quite within my realm i am more along the lines of a craftsman what i do is
more permanent from what i understand of tales oh i understand that was a devil that i
as i did a job job with before and every single time that we would have to make camp or prepare for
things he was doing the same things you're doing so i apologize master salim i you know i'm i was i was wrong
and then to lean like actually like like wave a hand behind him and uh he's like he's like no no no it's
actually very interesting it's not a skill set that i am familiar with it's interesting to know that
there are delvers with such um pursuits active but would you happen to know if they are still
in the daring business i'm afraid not master salim i have not seen them in quite a number of years
delvers come and go either alive or dead
oh like to lean kind of like leans over he's like
hmm unfortunate i would be interested in learning more about these etchers if possible
like he not like he nods and uh you'll see that he'll talk to you as you're working for the rest of
the night and days go by as you're doing this and you learn more and more like what he knows
they're pretty much like there's like some warriors he'll do it like some adventures and
stuff they'll kind of do this give like oh you're not natively with magic but you learn how to a method
in which to harness power for it so that's one basically one thing that they've uh that they've done
but as you finish as you finish up your weapon you now have your wounding rune yes
and garavin thanks oh sorry i'm sorry i was gonna say like as to lean like puts the finishing touches
on it um he like uh in the the light of the cave like he lifts the sword up and he kind of like whips
it uh back into a sword like uh into the like sword form instead of like the more disjointed whip yeah and
or like anybody's looking at it the blade now has a what looks like a much more wicked edge to it
like it's not serrated but while it was a scimitar-like blade before it just has a
just more vicious glint to it
and uh he looks over and he's like i would have to say some of my better work
the rest of you obviously are around to lean when he's finishing it so it's been days at this
point you've been talking with the leshies maybe drinking with them partying whatever whatever you
have decided to do um but moss bird comes up to you all going hey we about to leave in a couple
days you already coming with us or you gonna be leaving down that cave i i think we're coming
with you you know how to get to the surface you think you know how to get to the surface right
yeah yeah i already pointed you to the cave but we ain't going to no cave we can get you close though
oh we gotta move to our new location you know right right yeah so the witch doesn't come get
you it's on the way though right yeah yeah on the way we'll get you kind of close and then we got
up our ways but you can't miss it okay okay yeah clean well uh like it sheathes a sword and he'll uh look
at mossberg and it's perhaps best to travel in numbers the best we can while we can you know safety
and everything the individuals from before are still out and about like mossberg nods and go yeah that's
right don't get y'all ready kind of help out carry a thing to do we're going we're gonna start we're
almost done back when everything we'll be start leaving here in a couple days and mossberg will
leave you all for it into basically kind of fast forward the scenario um you notice that they break
down everything they get everything in these like multiple sleds like these little leaf sleds and stuff
that they all drag behind more leshes coming out of the woodwork of all the various trees and
stuff a lot more than you noticed and all these cute adorable this little just various like he's
just starting to look like and you're just all singing little songs as they're getting everything
together um they're so cute they eat people and you see before you all uh before everything departs the
sunflower leshes will come up to uh come up to you uh for the party and you see in their uh
little leaf hands they all kind of like they're like leaned into each other and they both present
their leaf hands out and they all have these little sunflower seeds oh and they present one to each of you
oh oh thank you beetle's going to take the little sunflower seed and put it in his pocket
please please it doesn't over encumber me right please god i'm on the breath of this
just uh you can mentally notice if you add an item it might add it like one bulk it should be
negligible i can't say the word right so plus one yippee so minus one
so can can gray look over the scene and see if there's anything like weird about her if this
is just like a normal scene i'll be nature check
okay i can do that
that's 11 for a total of 25. with a with a 25 you see that uh that this like this obviously
it's not just a just a normal sunflower seed um you find out that this seed uh is able to help cure
elements you don't know exactly what oh uh but basically if you have like a type of element or so
this will help you interesting okay
i mean one sunflower seed ain't that much of a much of a snack
you do you relay that to the group uh she's gonna relay it in the best way that she can and that is
oh you can make a tea with this or something it'll help with sickness sickness with one
i'm not i'm not saying you're gonna get a full thing out of it it's just gonna help
what if it helps with garevan's sickness
i mean if you want to waste your seed bro waste it it's not a waste if garevan lives dude it's your snack
yeah what to to lean will like in that instance uh he will like offer the seed that was offered to him
it's like perhaps it is best if mine is used for such a pursuit due to my
nature okay it has to be made into a tea no just i don't actually know
all i know is this feels very special uh i believe things that medicinal properties are more
beetles line of uh work
are there any medicines that are made with seeds should they be powdered or boiled
you feel there's multiple ways to prepare and apply it like obviously you could feel free to
role play something and we could bullshit our way through it none of us are doctors
yeah i was like none of us are doctors
i'm okay i'm okay with this role playing through
put the seed directly to throw the seed at him
could we spend some time before we leave for beetle to administer seed to take care of him
no yeah froggy i'd like i'd like beetle to seed garevan please
so as you apply to see the garevan roll me a medicine check okay
minus one by the way what why
why how do i add a minus one just okay we'll do it after no no no not not not for your roll
talking for chats thing um oh frick i want to hero point it you want to hear a point okay you roll
the 20 here point it yeah but it was like a four on the die or something yeah yeah oh only a 23
so you you're trying to apply it uh to garevan and you do successfully apply it uh you are able to kind
of mix it up get it all get the best potency you came out of it and applying to garevan and you'll
you'll definitely see a marked improvement of him you do know it does not cure him 100 but
he is leagues better than he would have been otherwise so oh good like oh in terms of like severely sick
like he's he's definitely stable yeah you can stand and walk hang in there gary okay
yeah instead of being like super sweaty and panting and everything he's just sleeping silently
oh number death for gary will prep him up and stuff and be like i will carry oh dear garevan around
and he takes like a sling kind of puts him on his back basically for the whole kind of contraction
that way as well oh okay zoom kind of flank him as he travels with you all because now everyone is
leaving during this time everyone's now packed up and heading off and you guys travel through the
forest and as you all travel through the forest a day or so passes um you can't for the night where
nothing pursues you eventually they all split off from you the sunflower leshies wave goodbye to you as a
pair um i'll just do various of the other leshies they all thank you as you leave like thanks for
saving us thank you thank you you know like oh no he's like we won't forget you you know one little
leshy shows up with like a little bark plate and has a painting of all of you on it
it comes up to you all can you all give me can you all sign it with your blood oh of course
right here and you just hold it up to all of you yeah you little freak yeah
i guess we saw i don't know yeah yeah one yeah we we side with our blood yeah yeah okay
i guess you make like a prick or so and it comes up to you to lean going
uh will instead he'll take a um he'll take a finger and he'll just uh like etch a little thing
in there he's like i apologize but i am i'm not possessed of bodily bodily fluids so he just does
like a little like etching of the signatures instead so does this leshy cackle menacingly and
run away with it afterwards it hugs the plates you know and it's
better patters away as it hugs it oh oh well um oh
it's always nice to me about that yeah yeah what you said heart yeah yeah for sure yeah totally
a negative one appears above gray's head yeah yeah no i i agree i agree
so as you all are standing there you guys can head off also make sure you're fully healed make sure you
have all your spell slots everything else like make sure everything's prepared for you um you guys can
head off to the exit now do you guys do so oh yeah that's great yes or i mean damn gay
so as within the forest you begin to head north sorry child which had a graphic for this but uh you
guys begin to head north and weaving through the forest and so you follow the instructions of boss
where you're going to go to the gosh dang stream and you follow the gosh dang stream further up north
but as you are going forward
a fog appears oh my no a fog begins to appear
here and you notice
it begins to darken oh hell
dude it's just zombies one hand could be wrong
she's back oh wait yeah what where this is such a pain yeah she brings the fog with her
oh yeah i will step back here and protect kevin and the little ones
if you're in darn need just call for me and you'll see that normal death will kind of hunker down
near a tree like just make sure you scout it out first
as i repeat the last one then i would rather make sure we're clear you guys want to dive into some
bushes and see if maybe she just passes yeah that sounds like a great idea yeah i'd love to do that
actually heart grows a big bush you grow a giant you grow a big bush pretty much just right in front of
you here and then it grows a few trees and then it just jumps into it i'd like to use my stealth yeah
you guys are making some stealth checks also for stealth i rolled a 24.
i rolled a 19 19. i rolled a 12. uh oh
heart's bush is shaking
because he's so afraid
you've all you all pretty much hide i mean you feel free to move yourself into the bush that's in front of you there
you'll see any position you'll you'll be in the bush
like near beside it
heart
roll me a perception
oh my gosh maybe she's around here maybe i don't know everyone else roll me a perception
she got okay i got a 27
i've got also a 27. i rolled a total of 29. i rolled a total of a 23.
within the fog
you hear a slight cackling
somewhere in north of you you hear a
heart squeezes beetle beetle makes a little slick dog toy sound
you see to the north
there's a rock face
a boulder where
an old hag
stands up on top of it looking the scanning the horizon
behind her you see the exits
a river
that goes in into another mushroom cave vines
come down from the high wall there as the wall continues up and up and up into the grand
cavernous ceiling that has been illuminating your adventure the entire time
oh no
through the fog you can see where that light tries to pierce through but the fog is too thick
for that much light for that much light to come through
but heart you see that the hag is looking at you
uh-oh he instinctively stands up and does a
uh-oh
oh no
oh no
i know you know i've been hunting you all this entire time
i told them
i can't believe they sent their little pets inside
they we had an agreement to not step on each other's domain but if they're no longer around then
i guess their pets will stray
heart has dropped beetle and he is holding his head and he is going oh no i'm gonna get cursed
i'm gonna die
heart stop she's talking over there on that rocket i'm trying to hear what she's saying
i already see you pretty since she points to where heart is
i think your friend gave you away but one thing that found me earlier than i
was is my pet who is quite hungry you took his food away he loves ember along with flesh and bone
and he decided to avoid my pet a delicious treat
it only enjoyed some of the others perhaps it would enjoy you as a snack
oh sometimes stragglers get away sometimes they run away and sometimes i let them go away
if you ever see the ones who call you pets and pretty tell them that i remember
i do not know where they went i don't know why they send you the little lovebirds down here
but you're not supposed to be here and by getting rid of you i'll teach them a lesson
what is she waffling about up there
she's calling us pets of something or her pet i like grace trying really hard like she's straight in
her ears nothing calls us pet what is she talking about yes there is what do you mean nothing nothing's
called us a pet so far yes there is what are you talking about that's what the elves call us what
like at this point i went since they've been spotted to lean like kind of like raises up out of the bush
since they have obviously been seen and he uh looks at the rest of the party's like apparently we have um
um wandered in on a conflict between who sets of
individuals like he like he hesitates to use the word hag like he's just like yeah
uh and i just want to leave uh should we tell her this is a mistake that they didn't send us down
here no we can't lie to old women as you say lying that you don't want to lie down here you see you
hear her cackle again charlie it's time to feed and you hear from an echoing out of the cave
it just echoes throughout like a roostering roar
not charles not charles not charles as a giant cockatrice stumbles its way outside the cave
treading through the waters below oh hell find them eat them crush their little bones
that is the scariest pets that those little elmas own and that's where we're going to end it today
no
that is the scariest thing i have seen in my life and i'm just looking at the token let me kill the
chicken are you gonna make us fight a cock yes a giant cock is what i'm gonna make you fight
let me kill it let me at it let me at it i'll kill it let me at it
