Critical Role, Campaign 4 Episode 31
Ridiculously long episode, this, so we'll have to see if I can do this in two parts and hopefully I can get the first half to save and then be able to come back and finish it off later. Here's hoping tumblr behaves itself ...
Oh okay, so we're just going STRIGHT INTO THIS ... nice ... and HIT POINTS!!! Aha!
And brennan is just IMMEDIATELY coming for our hearts ... thanks for that ... rest in peace, lion man ...
No resurrection magic? Oh dear ... that's proper STAKES right there ... a death Bloom instead, then? And Wick gets a BOOST for his permanent HP? Wow ...
Whoa, so Wick is just BOOKING IT straight for the manor? Oh dear ... this can't be good ...
Back in the nightmare tailor's shop ... and yeah, this whole enterprise just keeps getting more horryifying ... Investigation check! Warlock, s eh?@ Oh, and that's also unnerving ... hmmmmm ... refined shadow soul cloth ... please leave this nasty shit where it is, please. Nobody take any of it with you, it's AWFUL ... oh dear, OF COURSE Bolaire takes a fancy to that ...
A soul fabric bikini? Of course she wants that ... LOL
Having a proper little talk with Rulius ... Persuasion or Intimidation? Hmmmmm ... OF COURSE Bolaire's up for making A DEAL ...
Meanwhile Kattigan is SERIOUSLY creeped out anyway ... and he's ABSOLUTELY looting everything of value that isn't pure nightmare fuel ...
Arcana with Advantage ... oh hello ... so Tyranny's dad is ALL OVER this place ... that's both interesting and REALLY disturbing ... oh hello, SPOILS!!! Spoils of more critical informative value ...
Yeah, this is some PROPER looting ... and Tyranny's going full pinup with that look ... O.O
Spill it, Rulius!
Tyranny and Kattigan are bonding over contemplating vengeance and murder ... it's kind of sweet ... :3
Oh, so Bolaire's just goign to full-on DEAL with Rulius NOW, then? Interesting ... I would've expected him to keep wearing him for a bit longer ...
OF COURSE she tickles him ... LOL
Roll Initiative? Really? Okay, then ...
Tyranny's just jumping STRAIGHT IN to murder, then ... and kattigan's joining in ... STABBY STABBY STABBY ... and now here comes THE WOLF too ... this is going to be SO NASTY ... O.O ... this is going to be interesting ...
Rulius is goign to try and do SOMETHING ... and all he has is Thaumaturgy? That's priceless ... yeah, this guy is SCREWED ... he's totally at their mercy ...
Tryanny cannot just POP OFF, apparently ... and she just OPENS HIM UP all the way from groin to chin ... perfect ... in the worst way ...
And they're bolting ... oh yeah, I forgot about the finger ... O.O ... this should be interesting ... wow ... that was SURREAL ...
Oh, and there we go ... please don't eat the finger, tyranny!
here we go then, more sam Riegel advert nonsense ... J-Bone? NordVPN? Oh gods ... this is gonna be SO BAD ... and he's ALREADY crashing and burning ... J-Bone doesn't sing? Thank the gods ... and he really DOESN'T have a deep sexy voice because Sam CAN'T DO THAT ... LOL ... oh he is SO BAD AT THIS ... and Ashley's joining in too ... okay then ... this was SO FUCKING BAD ... XD ... Girrrrrrrrrrrrl ...
Ah yes ... this is likely ALL we will see of Travis injthis episode ... and I'm sad again ...
Another table change! Okay then ...
Marisha (in Murray's voice): "I'm such a dwarf, I just think of bridges and bridges there be!" LOL
Oh shit, so it's CHAOS on the other side of the veil ... maybe we should do something about this?
Time for Hal to roll his Hit Points, then ... nice ...
Aha, so ... THE STAKES ... hmmmmm ...
Ah, the joys of actually performaing and/pr creating controversial forbidden art ... and the great risks ... but it's definitely worth it in this case ... O.O
YES!!! Perform the story as it SHOULD be told ...
Temelow? HI!!! She's a knockout, really ... :3
Oh hello ... is this a meetcute? Plaease let this be a meetcute ... or at the very least they're having A CONNECTION ... at least Vaelus gets a KISS out of it ...
Oh my gods that is SO PRECIOUS ... tributes from the fae! O.O ... it's beautiful ...
Yes! Thaisha's just the one we need to help calm this ensuing panic ... do your magnificent work, girl! But she's also itching for a FIGHT while she's at it ... I love that ...
Nature AND Insight checks! Oh nice ... and also an Intimidation check ... hmmmm ...
A ghostly Thaisha Lloy is now RIGHT THERE in the spirit world! Oh, that's perfect ... that's TOTALLY going to do the job ... meanwhile she's becoming something of a GENERAL in this moment ... O.O
The priests are starting to wonder: "Are WE the bad guys?"
A bubbling lake of paint ... sure ...
"Full Miss Rachel" ... I love that ... LOL
The subtext is BARELY subtext right now ... I am SO proud of Aabria for what she's doing right now and happy for the story that she's getting to tell UNRESTRAINED ...
This is so surreal and yet so spectacularly vivid in the way Brennan is describing it and it's SO POWERFUL ...
"A story ..." "That's all we are in the end." Wow ... that's SO profound and incredibly apt and SO moving ... O.O
NEW ANGEL JUST DROPPED!!!
Kaedra? Oh wow ... that;s so perfect ...
That just got even more immeasurably profound ... "the story points to the man" ... O.O ... holy shit ...
Thaisha spends the remainder of the show just CRYING ... awwww ... :3
Oh man, so EVERYBODY is crying ... they're cryaing and I'm crying and it's beautiful ... but also there's a little bitter with the sweet ... because Vaelus had to pay the cost in this moment ...
More azune origin story stuff? Is that what this is?
Yes, tell Thaisha ... that's right, Vaelus HAS to start with the dragon ... XD ... and the moss ... hmmmmm ...
Oh yeah, the finale, then ... and that's a good point, once the play ends so does the ritual ... no more peering through the veil ...
The priests? Yeah, they are indeed FUCKING NARCS ... it's a fitting punishment ...
Thaisha: "My baby's so good at acting!" :3
Crap ... the Creed kind of get a small win here after all ... I don't like that ...
Family really can mean SO MUCH more than just the one you're born with ...
Enhance Ability! Oh hello, here we go ... a falcon? Wow ... that's ballsy ... but also fitting ... a little nod for Thjazi ... and Murray adds to it with Skywrite ... perfect ... and that outdoes the Villa's lights ... nice ...
Oh yeah, totally applause ... and flowers ... and panties too, apparently ... LOL
A little extra thunder ... of course ...
Yes, definitely, Hall absolutely MUST take a bow for this ... and he's got a LUTE with him ... here we go ... do some big time bard shit, Hal! Ah, it's poetic ... lovely ... and a folk song ... perfect ... he has them IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND now ... that was beautiful ...
A party procession? Wow ... this could get complicated but I LOVE IT ... O.O
Detect magic? Hmmmmm ...
The veil closes, and that's a good thing ...
Time for a party indeed, then ... head out and get shitfaced, people! Hal's the Pied piper now ... what's he planning to do with this?
A little more paint magic? Hmmmm ... "Remember" .,. nice ...
Investigation and Perception rolls across the board, then ... and another Detect Magic ...
EVERYBODY has FORTY temp Hit Points? O.O ... holy shit!
More Perception checks!
Tiny naked fairy guy: "Will you be our queen?" Wow ...
Weird technicolour chameleon? Oh dear ... this feels like trouble ... oh ... oh okay, I see ... it's Bolaire ... hmmmm ... this just got interesting ... yeah, we believe it ... anyone but Bolaire, we wouldn't but ...
Bad wig? Hmmmmm ... yeah, it definitely IS Bolaire ...
Figment? OH ... OH!!! Yeah, of course ... that's really sweet actually ...
Persuasion check ... hmmmm ... let's see how well THIS works ... this is getting a little surreal ... but okay ... O.O
Vaelus really can't ever be done with this weird shit ...
Table change! Oh gods, we're back at the Manor ... this is gonna get complicated ...
Now everybody's rolling a d8 ... INCLUDING for Teor and Cyd ... oof ... even in death ... yeah, the Threat level has now INCREASED ... oof ...
Constitution save for Occtis? This can't be good ... and THAT had to hurt ... and it CONTINUES to hurt too ... shit ... JUlien makes a perception check ... not great ... he's not really too clued in with this as it is ...
He feels BETTER? Oh ... yeah, that must be the Stone being shatered, then ... hmmmmm ...
That's right, Thimble's still up there ...
Julien, come on man ... do something selfless for once ...
What even IS that thing? It's very dramatic ... O.O
Moment of truth, Julien ... okay, so he's being REALLY grudging about it, but at least he's still going ...
Spider Climb! Nice ... that and the Hare's Charm make short work of getting over the wall ... Stealth check! And a Perception check ... oh, it's Hannan! That might not be a bad thing after all ...
Meanwhile Thimble's absolutely RACING through the interior ... and now she has to hide ... Percption check! A large book? Hello ... uh-oh ... here they come, though ...
Yeah, it's all going off right now ...
Great, this just made things a whole lot more complicated ...
Wow, Hannan isn't even TRYTING to be subtle about this ... what is he DOING right now? This is DEFINITELY about to get REALLY complicated ...
Thimble has to make a stealth check if she wants to get out of the room ... but there's stuff she could still check out ... and now she's just trying to rip out some pages ... Sleight of Hand! Nice ...
Stealth check! Come on Thimble, you're tiny ... O.O
HANNAN sees her ... but the rest don't ... PLEASE be cool about this, druid man ... fuck ... this is gonna be a scary roll ... oh thank fuck ...
A "curse"? Hannan calls their bluff ... ooooooh ... nice ...
Holy shit, he just COMPLETELY countered the necromancy in that moment ... it's beautiful ... and thankfully NO, it DOES NOT have any effect of Occtis ... phew ...
Yeah, she can make her way now ... and she's got a whole BUNCH of Advantage now thanks to what hannan's doing ... that's perfect ...
What can they even DO from out here?
investigation check for Thimble ... no? Crap ... does she have ANYTHING she can rescue this with? PLEASE?
They're heading into the courtyard and trying to do SOMETHING ... hmmmmm ... and they're trying to do the best they can to see SOMETHING from out here ... it's not exactly promising, is it?
Damn it, she's NOT having any luck, then ... so Brennan throws laura a bone after all ... nice ... yeah, Teor never made it here ... it's so bad ...
They're all rolling a d6 now ... CRAP ...
Laura FINALLY rolls GOOD on her Investigation ...
Shit ... the other Tachonis here in the city are COMING ...
Oh gods ... she's made it to the room ... and found the MESS ... the zombies are still there ... an there they are ... Teor and cyd ... fuck ... I'm so sorry, Thimble ... Insight and Perception checks ...
Yeah, this just got SO MUCH WORSE ...
Something of faerie? Hmmmmmm ...
Oh my gods, please don't ... THIMBLE ATTACKS RAIMOND ...
Roll Initiative!
Oh yes, OF COURSE the zombies have collapsed ... nice ...
Thimble makes a Stealth check ... not bad ...
Julien has to make a Strength save ... hmmmmm ... oh hell ... lightning flashes and his shadow DRAGS HIM INTO THE MANOR and down the stairs! Holy shit ... O.O
Raimond doesn't see Thimble ...
Occtis is BOOKING IT after Julien ... and as far as he knows it's just one of the shades ... wow ... so he FIREBOLTS IT!!! Fucking hell ... O.O ... yeah, the Grapple is broken ...
Thimble charges the hulking form of Raimond ... with Sneak Attack, at least ... Brennan is really stretching this out ... butt she gets the HDYWTDT!!! Thank fuck! She just flies RIGHT INTO the hole in his chest and powers THROUGH HIM ... she doesn't destroy him, she FREES him ... beautiful ...
She has NOTHING that she can do for Teor and Cyd right now ... oh wait ... what's this? Something fricking SWEET ... she's INSTANTLY attuned to the bracers? Nice ... and now she has a Strength of NINETEEN!!! Awesome ... wait, what's he saying about her size?
Wait ... is this going where I THINK this is going? Is Thimble about to get BIG?!!! Please tell me she's about to get big ... O.O
HER BODY GROWS TO HUMAN SIZE ... I am LOSING MY FUCKING MIND ... O.O
I'm sorry, she now has the streght of A GIANT?!!! Wow ... so she just picked BOTH of the bodies up and also the sword and the greataxe and the banner and ... holy shit ... she's got ALL OF IT ... and she can just WALK OUT with all of this? Are you kidding me?
Oh wow, so she's INTERRING Raimond's ruined corpse on the spot? Nice ... that's beautiful and so kind ...
Investigation and Stealth checks are FUCKING EASY right now ... perfect ...
Thimble really is a VISION right now and it's magnificent ... oh hello ... she now has a Padawan braid? That's priceless! XD
Yeah, how ARE they going to get out now? The underground river? Hmmmmm ... maybe ...
WHISPERS!!! Laura gets Whiispers! Matt: "I'm not Sam Riegel, I stay in the moment." LOL
Wait ... Thimble shrinks back down to her usual size but the Bracers shrink with her ... and now she's wearing a fancy gauzey suit of armour ... that's so cool ... and she STILL has the 19 Strength!
Yeah, you guys really NEED TO LEAVE ...
The Tachonis are trying to bluff their way out of it and Hanna's having NONE OF IT ... wait ... holy shit, Primus just KILLS HANNAN ON THE SPOT?!!! Are you fucking KIDDING ME?!!! O.O
Oh, so they're just striking camp and leaving TONIGHT? Wow ... they're really committed to this now ...
THIS is where he calls it a break ... and where I'm gonna save this and then hopefully pick back up later ... hmmmm ... bear with me then, please ...
Okay, we're back ... hope this works ...
Oh hey, he caught it this time! Nice one, Brennan ...
Oh, this is interesting ... somewhat different setup to normal. Where's THIS going?
Shit ... yeah, you guys better stop Wick before he winds up getting himself KILLED ... meanwhile for his part Wicl's still just being Wick ...
Oh, they fucked this up REALLY BADLY ... O.O ... and just like that they're gone ... hmmmm ...
Wick tries to Message thimble? Hmmmmm ... I wonder how this is gonna go ... or even how receptive she's gonna be ... and he's not having ANY luck at it? Oh dear, that's probably a PARTICULARLY bad sign ...
Charm person? Oh boy ... this better work ... oh, well there you go then ... yeah ...
A Luck check? Yeah .,.. and he absolutely SHITS IT ... oh gods ... he's gonna die ...
HOLY SHIT!!! O.O ... Primus just isn't taking ANY fucking chances! What the sweet fuck?
Whose body is THAT?
Another Luck check ...; wow Sam is doing SO fucking badly with these rolls ... O.O
Really? You're gonna try it THAT way?
Yeah, i didn't see that working for a second ... I was right, Wick really IS going to die ...
Think fucking FAST, Wick ... you're drowning here right now and you NEED to dig your way out of this NOW ... Persuasion check? Oh for fuck's sake ...
Just roll over and play dead, seriously ... O,O
Slit her throiat? Oh shit ... it's a sadistic test ... you need to be ESPECIALLY careful what you do here, Wick. How badly do you need to prove yourself in this moment? I really don't think your spells are going to do anything for you under the circumstances, especially against THIS man ...
O.O ... oh my gods ... he really did it ...
Persuasion? Oh my FUCKING GODS ... how could you fuck that up THIS BADLY?!!!
Wow ... how the hell did he actually get out of THIS in one piece? Fucking hell ... yeah, I'm really not surprised he's feeling THATMUCH like shit ... that was A LOT and I'm genuinely amazed he really did that ...
Tyranny tries to get hold of him ... nothing's going through, of course ... another Luck check ... oof ...
Is this gonna work? Cruelty's not THAT dense ... Deception check ... oh boy ...
At least the finger did its job ...
Yeah, really, get out of there, Tyranny ...
Team Theatre? Oh boy ... meanwhile Sam's freak,ing out about what's becoming of his character ... XD
Another table swap, then ...
The play is a genuine sold-out smash hit ... these are DEFINITELY the kind of problems you SHOULD have ...
Passive aggressive threats are always the best ... Aabria's right, that reaslly is the best way to call someone "coloniser" while being POLITE about it ...
And Murray is SHITFACED ... wow ... XD ... she's such an adorable drunk ... meanwhile Azune's being really sweet about it, too ...
Oh ... hello ... so she's like INTO HIM into him? Cute ... I mean Kattigan is definitely a fine specimen of a man, definitely ... very easy on the eyes ...
Hmmmm ... is this the first real note of discord for the celebration?
Lord Otto? Yeah, I kind of expected that ... Insight check!
Wow, they really DO have giant's blood in their veins, don't they?
Right ... where exactly IS this going? After what just went down at the Villa Aurora I am EXTREMELY wary about THIS meeting in particular ... I am properly WORRIED for Azune right now ...
Yeah, the man is absolutely probing right now ...
Another Insight check ... hmmmm ...
Careful, Azune ... and now Murray's involved in this after all ... hmmmm ... I hope this doesn't suddenly go VERY badly ...
Perception checks ACROSS THE BOARD, then ... great ...
Sons of the Dawn? Interesting ...
Great, here we go ... Murray luv, you better sober up real quick ... O.O ... at least Azune's here for her ... Guidance? Thank you for that, at least ...
Bags of tools? Murray: "They are MASSIVE bags of tools."
Brennan with the scary vibrating table effect to express JUST how dangerously worked up Otto really is right now ...
Minor Illusion? Okay, then ...
Vaelus GOES TO THE CARRIAGE AND KNOCKS ... wow ... O.O
Fucking hell, Vaelus speaks Giant? Wow ... that is ... AWESOME ... O.O ... and yeahy, that';s a good point, he WOULD recognise Vaelus right now, wouldn't he?
And now SHE'S injected herself into this too ... this is getting interesting ...
"Sloppy dwarven friend"? Oh my ...
Insight check ... fucking hell, Ashley ... true to form, but that's THE WORST timing ...
A very loaded question ... Persuasion, then ... a Hertoic Inspiration to reroll ... oh wow ... nice one indeed Luis ... NAT FUCKING 20!!!
A word in private then ... and OF COURSE Murray needs to be helped down ...
Yeah, this is getting VERY heated ... but tat least there are a coupole of cooler heads to prevail in here ... and now they're making a REALLY cool decision right now ... yeah, bide your time, probably best right now ...
Azune is doing REALLY WELL in how he's playing them right now, too ... and his carefully chosen words are working P[ERFECTLY ...
A whole battalion of Sons of the Dawn? And more revolutionary Guard too ... maybe not the best ones to see in this situation while they're at it ... hmmmmmm ...
Ha; and Thaisha are still absolutely adorable even as they're being REALLY disruptive ...
Yeah, get some reinforcements in here right now, Azune ... more magpies will definitely help ...
Shadia darling, you were absolutely AMAZING, sweety ...
Persuasion check ... yeah ...
Weather check! And Thaisha and Murray between them are doing a good job getting the signals through too ...
Lightning strikes ... yeah, it would be pretty intimidating ...
I really do hope things aren't about to go VERY BAD ...
Perception check! That's more like it, Ash ...
Oh hello well hidden friendly overwatch ...
Intimidate with Advantage ... well yeah, I mean Thaisha is VERY intimidating, so ... O.O
Decepotion for Azune ... hmmmm ... yeah, this is definitely getting COMPLICATED ... with Guidance ... shit ... that's a Nat1 ... of fuck ... but he's got Luck on his side ... oh that's SO MUCH better ... phew ... O.O
How far away IS this conversation taking place? Perception check for Thaisha ... yeah ...
Oh, well THAT is a major windchange ... looks like the Halover are very much losing their aqdvantage here ... a turn in the weather indeed ...
Seriously, I really would NOT want to be on the wrong side of Thaisha Lloy, she's SCARY ...
Yeah, that's right, back that shit up outta here ...
Hal: "May the Beam guide you!" Wow ...
Back to Hal's then ... and now it's EVERYBODY at the table at once again ... wow ... O.O
Kattigan's the first in, climbing in through the window with Wulfric ... real classy there ...
Apples? Hmmmmm ... oh, I get it ... hy there, Misha ...
occtis and Julien arrive ... okay ... and our boy is NOT in the best of shape right now ... hmmmm ... are you all right, Occtis?
I love how Misha's just happily GOING WITH IT ...
OH FUCK ... Misha just put Bolaire on ... O.O ... but at least he's VERY NICE and understanding about it ... please be careful with him ...
Tyranny's back too ... and she's SO WORRIED ... hmmmm ... calm down girl, he's fine ... yeah, she really needs BOOZE right now ...
Yeah, here's Wick ... and Tyranny IMMEDIATELY makes a fuss of him ... no, it's NOT his blood and he's an absolute WRECK ... awwww ... thanks for that, Wulfric ... yeah, give him a drink ...
Finally Team Theatre arrive ... and the Halovar carriage is still there ... so Thaisha just LIGHNING BOLTS the fucking thing ... whoa ... at least the driver survives and runs off in terror ...
Yeah, this is a pretty fraught gathering right now ... and OF COURSE they're all still very worried about Thimble and teor and Cyd ...
Murray gives Occtis a look-over ...
Second level Cure Wounds? Wow ... okay ... that's a lot of healing for Occtis ... does it take this time?
Essentially a heart attack? Yeah ... that's about right, really ...
Oh yeah ... Hannan ... damn ...
Thimble, yeah ... where DID they all come out? The lake? Hmmmmmm ... yeah, i don't doubt that running is VERY MUCH a novelty for her right now ...
Constitution save! Nice ... yeah, our girl is in VERY impressive shape right now ... but still ... two hours? Boy ...
Oh wow, Julien really is just taking that ENTIRELY on faith ... that's intriguing ... O.O
Here she is, then ... they're all back at last ...
Spare the Dying ... yeah ... that's not going to work, Kattigan ... I'm so sorry ...
The sword ... yeah ... that's going to be A LOT for Julien ... and an incredible show of decency from Thimble, too ...
Oh man ... FULL SIZE Thimble hugs Occtis ... this is an AMAZING MOMENT ... I love this ... it's so sweet ...
Everybody catching everybody else up, then ... yeah ... meanwhile they're tending to the first preparations for Teor and Cyd ...
Occtis really is the closest friend Thimble has left at this point ... there's NO WAY he was ever going to abandon her ...
Pin's back! Hi!
Identify ... yeah, that is indeed Alba's soul in the gem ... that's what they needed to find ...
The less that Wick has to sday tghe better, but it's still a great weight ... and of coursde now Wick has the inside line on what's really happening with the Sundered houses ... which is VERY important information right now ...
Thimble is indeed VERY MUCH shanged ... XD
Yeah, at least what needed to be done at the Hallowed Round worked out all right ...
Oh hello, Mara's awake at last ...
Thimble's little again, which is probably for the best right now.
Healing Word ... thanks, Hal ...
Oh yeah, she DEFINITELY needs to be brought up to speed ... it's been a really tough fortnight for HER in particular ...
The Scar ... yeah ...
You're among friends here, Mara ... it's okay ...
What ACTUALLY happened to Thjazi, then? A lot of supposition but nothing solid, no certainty ...
Insight check for Murray ... yeah, Mara's a hard one to read ... but she seems to be going through it ... and she IS a bird right now ...
Oh yeah, the papaers from the Manor ... yeah ... and everythign else they've collected tonight ... yeah, LOTS of new information ...
The Tachonis are WAY too narrow-minded, and it's gonna bite them in the arse someday ...
Yeah, Julien's shadow ... what the fuck is going on with that?
No lights except Thimble ... and now Bolaire is JABBING THE SHADOW with the sciissors from the tailor's shop ... Arcana check! And a Strength save ... hmmmmmm ...
Oh, well THAT is something ... WEIRD ...
Thimble's got it ... is Julien's shadow THJAZI?!!! O.O
Oh what sweet poetic irony if this is correct ... Julien you little bitch this is such a perfect vengeance from Thjazi ... you HAD TO spit on his body, didn't you?
So the shadow only really manifests when it's actually POSSIBLE for him to actually take control ... otherwise it's still very much JULIEN'S shadow ... this is interesting ...
The nail? Oh shit ... Julien, DROP IT!!! You petty little shit ...
Arcana check!
Kattigan and Occtis bring Teor and Cyd's bodies down into the cellar ...
Mara is passing the torch of the Cloak to Thimble as was originally the plan, apparently ... hmmmmm ...
Yeah, the Bridge worked ...
Here we go, the missing pieces of the puzzle regarding the Cloak and their plans ... FINALLY ...
Oh dear, what's going on in the cellar right now? Be nice to Occtis please, Kattigan ... he's really NOT his father ... oh, okay ... that;s more like it ...
Yeah, just give Hal some fresh booze and be done with it ...
Oh okay, just smash-cut to the theatee, then ...
Yeah, Mara is BLOWN AWAY by how this went ...
Bogrey! Yes!
The PROPER plan, such as it was ... hmmmm ...
Insight check across the board!
Oh shit, is THAT really how Thaisha found out that Bolaire is actually a mask? O.O
Yeah, it's true ... what they did here was really beautiful, but it was also INCREDIBLY public and not at all possible to keep a secret ... it's potentially EXTREMELY dangerous ... and it absolutely gave away what the overall plan might have been ...
Shit ... don't even get us STARTED on the dragon ...
it's understandable why Bolaire is so ANGRY at Thjazi right now ... for SO MANY reasons ...
Well it's clear enough that both Bolaire and Occtis need to lkeave the city, so they're strong candidates to go withj Mara if anybody does ... anyone else?
Oh yeah, the Seed ... yeah, plant it!
Vaelus leads them to the ideal spot ... of course ...
Here we go, then ... setting up the new tables ... saw that coming ...
More relics ... for EACH fresh stage ... yeah, this is going to be complicated, clearly ...
Wick's making a concerted effort to examine Julien's shadow ... Perception check ... hmmm ...
A little bonding for Wick and Occtis? Yes please ...
Hello again, Temelow! I love her ...
The magn ificent wonder that Vaelus' sacrifice wrought here ... it really is a beautiful thing ... oh hello, Enrichment? Thank you Thaisha ... as if it wasn't already SPECTACULAR here ...
There it is ... the new Miller's Road ...
Yeah, it was Thimble's SPECIAL name for him and no-one else got to use it ... :3
Okay, so we're officially working out the new groups and working out the logistics of keeping in contact etc accordingly which is definitely for the best ...
Oh ... Bolaire's definitely being VERY prickly about this ... and he has every right, of course ... but Thimble is NOT the one to direct this anger at right now ...
Yeah ... Figment ... he's perfect ... Investigation or Arcana for Bolaire ... yeah, this little lizard is SO PRECIOUS ...
Looks like Bolaire needs a new vessel, then ...
Yes, please Tyranny, give Thaisha Kattigan's finger so she can reattach it ... O.O
A relic from the Golden Orchard? Hmmmmm ... Persuasion with Advantage ... wow ... a NAT20?!!! Fucking hell, Alex ...
I should think that particular detour would be EXTREMELY worthwhile ... yeah, better to MEET HER at the Golden Orchard, then ...
I have very much come to appreciate Hal and Bolaire's friednship, and I truly hope this won't be the last we see of it ...
Wizard shit ...
The Glyph of Shielding which makes a VERY roundabout route to Wick ... XD
Awake all night? How many of us are gonna have to take a point of Exhaustion, then?
Yeah, good point about the Miller's Road there, actually ...
Perception check with Advantage for Julien ...
NOBODY pronounces Azune right? Fascinating ...
Julien VERY SWEETLY passes Azune the greataxe ... then he has an intriguing and very private moment with his shadow ... a very BEAUTIFUL one ... oh man ...
Thaisha and Occtis make their farewells ... yeah ... adoptive found mothers and their wayward sons ...
Misha is having an absolute blastr, of course he is ...
Demodus left him a gift? A little flipbook about a litle black cat ... awww, that is SO SWEET ... I love it so much ...
Vaelus has most definitely found a truly great friend in Thaisha ... I really hope this won't be the last time THEY get to see each other either ...
Yeah, two more funerals to attend to ...
A new seekers Table ... a new Schemers Table ... and a SINGLE occupant for the Soldiers Table ... hmmmmm ...
Yeah, I figured this was how we were gonna call it a night here ... this is it for now, I can definitely see why they're taking a break after THIS ...
It's gonna be a while then, but I still have to ask ... is it Thursday yet?
