The Badlands - Ep. 62: Gunsmoke and Ghost Towns

0:20 [SPEAKER_02]: Hello and welcome back to another episode of Mage Hand High Five. [SPEAKER_02]: I'm your dungeon master, Casey Pappas, and with me, right, least to most likely to stick their hand in a mysterious hole in the earth. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, goodness. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, no. [SPEAKER_03]: So we're gonna have to send two calls in the earth in the earth that was that hole.

0:43 [SPEAKER_03]: That was the hole. [SPEAKER_03]: It wasn't all in the earth. [SPEAKER_03]: It's all in the earth. [SPEAKER_03]: It's all in the earth. [SPEAKER_03]: It's all in the earth. [SPEAKER_01]: So we should get introduced now. [SPEAKER_02]: First Robin Lengenhap. [SPEAKER_01]: Hi, I'm Robin Leng and I'm playing Hayden Concade and absolutely not one time I was playing this weird this water balloon fight in college where all of the water balloons were hidden around this house and there was a hole in the middle of the front lawn that I knew a water bottle was in but I stuck my hand in there and it was full of bugs and I still have recovered and I will never stick my hand in a mysterious hole ever again.

1:20 [SPEAKER_03]: full of bugs and it's crazy. [SPEAKER_02]: That's not something. [SPEAKER_04]: You've had much icing. [SPEAKER_04]: It's bad folks. [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I can, you know, stick in your hand in the bug hole. [SPEAKER_02]: That'll do that. [SPEAKER_02]: Um. [UNKNOWN]: Oh my god. [SPEAKER_03]: Ha ha ha ha.

1:36 [SPEAKER_03]: Next. [SPEAKER_03]: Max Weinberg. [SPEAKER_03]: Ooh, hello, I'm Max Weinberg playing Wyatt Forsyth. [SPEAKER_03]: I think the middle is appropriate. [SPEAKER_03]: I don't think I've done it, but I would do it very hesitantly and very cautiously. [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_03]: Wyatt's absolutely not sticking his hand in any hole.

1:52 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh no, it's not clean. [SPEAKER_03]: And finally, Roan McStay. [SPEAKER_04]: Ah, how do you want me to stay in play and follow my rire and you know what curiosity killed the cap but satisfaction brought him back, I'm staying in my hand in that hole. [SPEAKER_01]: I have so many comments I want to say that I will not.

2:10 [SPEAKER_04]: I just, you know, like, I'm doing a lot of things for the story. [SPEAKER_04]: I'm doing a lot of things for the plot, for the vine, for whatever it is to advance the plot. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I feel like I just feel like I see a hole in the ground and I'm like, maybe it's a quest. [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know.

2:30 [SPEAKER_01]: That's why you always open the door and you never search for traps. [SPEAKER_04]: Right, and I feel like if it's a quest to the hospital, it's still a quest, you know? [SPEAKER_03]: At what point does a whole two big for you to stick your whole hand in or two small? [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, obviously, physically restraining, but like... Well, I mean, if it's big enough, I can get my whole body, and that's kind of... You would go into a random cave?

2:51 [SPEAKER_04]: Okay, with caves like yes, however, if it got like narrow enough again, I'm getting out of it. [SPEAKER_04]: Like I think those cave divers who go in like a hole that you can't turn around in are not. [SPEAKER_04]: And I wouldn't do something like that. [SPEAKER_04]: But I would go into, I wouldn't have go into like an unidentified regular cave.

3:09 [SPEAKER_04]: Sure, I'm just interested in in things. [SPEAKER_02]: That's what now I do sure. [SPEAKER_02]: And with that, as Rowan with a hole, let's dive right in. [SPEAKER_04]: That's good. [SPEAKER_02]: Last time on me, Chand Haifa. [SPEAKER_02]: You were approached at breakfast by shift. [SPEAKER_02]: We'll let you know that a team would soon be headed to three to ensure you made the party on time.

3:42 [SPEAKER_02]: She also revealed the return of the twin river bombardment tournament as a morale boost before the coming storm. [SPEAKER_02]: Wrapping up a few loose ends, you headed to Bancroft to let her in on the secret of Fax's whisp. [SPEAKER_02]: Though initially despondent about the loss of her job at the university, Bancroft became fascinated by the possibilities the Whisp had to offer.

4:05 [SPEAKER_02]: Perhaps, too much so. [SPEAKER_02]: She divulged Rota's role as a repository of sorts, housing whispers, before you had to pull her back to reality. [SPEAKER_02]: Despite her obsessive desire for more, you agreed tentatively to continue working with her. [SPEAKER_02]: And she began work on transcribing more of the book of Roda.

4:28 [SPEAKER_02]: You then picked up your masks from Clovis, each distinctly suited to you. [SPEAKER_02]: After Solomon gave a piece of Blyla's Breyer branch as a thank you, you correctly deduced Clovis to truly be the final Fate spun player Q in disguise. [SPEAKER_02]: Scheming how to reintroduce them and Blyla, you entered the bombardment tournament, beating the scraps, the blue collar crew, and finally the Bombadiers to cinch the title.

4:59 [SPEAKER_02]: When we last left off, Tom had made his presence known in nearby Gladhaven, seemingly recruiting red-eyed followers on his way to town. [SPEAKER_02]: Where you are now? [SPEAKER_02]: Solome. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_02]: You're in three. [SPEAKER_04]: Uh-huh. [SPEAKER_02]: But not just anywhere in three, you're in your old apartment.

5:29 [SPEAKER_02]: It's perhaps the ornateness of the room that strikes you first. [SPEAKER_02]: You'd gotten used to it over your decade here, but being away reminds you of the sheer wealth in this room. [SPEAKER_02]: Ivory and golden lamps, a beautifully woven rug, an ornate cutless hanging above the fireplace.

5:55 [SPEAKER_02]: But before you can take this all in, you feel the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. [SPEAKER_02]: You're not alone in this room. [SPEAKER_02]: Across the room from you, in front of the door out is that is. [SPEAKER_02]: He looks as if he's in thought, thinking of what he's going to say next.

6:20 [SPEAKER_02]: And then he finds the words. [SPEAKER_02]: So that's it, huh? [SPEAKER_04]: That is, dear heart, please. [SPEAKER_04]: I've been trying to explain how important to me this is. [SPEAKER_04]: For months, you know what my family means to me. [SPEAKER_04]: You know how sick I've been over this.

6:42 [SPEAKER_04]: No, I've been trying to tell you, I've tried to get you to understand. [SPEAKER_04]: 10 years. [SPEAKER_04]: Did you? [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know, of course it does. [SPEAKER_04]: It means everything to me. [SPEAKER_04]: Look around. [SPEAKER_04]: You mean everything to me. [SPEAKER_04]: But, dear heart, I need you to understand that I wouldn't just believe in you if I could have just gotten you to help.

7:09 [SPEAKER_02]: He turns and slams his fist down on a table. [SPEAKER_02]: And says, I believe you've gotten the chance to speak. [SPEAKER_02]: And now it's mine. [SPEAKER_02]: And if you think that you're going to leave after everything I've given you, then you are sadly mistaken. [SPEAKER_02]: And I don't care what's out there.

7:42 [SPEAKER_02]: Waiting. [SPEAKER_02]: That doesn't matter. [SPEAKER_02]: That's not important. [SPEAKER_02]: What's important is here. [SPEAKER_02]: Do you know how it would look? [SPEAKER_02]: for you to leave? [SPEAKER_02]: Do you know, and he starts to advance towards you? [SPEAKER_02]: Darlin, please.

7:59 [SPEAKER_02]: You know how things look in your little world, in the best ways I know people don't care about. [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know the same amount of things. [SPEAKER_04]: Look, my family. [SPEAKER_02]: I'm speaking. [SPEAKER_04]: I'm sorry. [SPEAKER_02]: I'm speaking. [SPEAKER_02]: Salamé, as he says this, you feel something in your hands.

8:21 [SPEAKER_02]: You look down to feel warmth. [SPEAKER_02]: It is the ivory handle of a gun. [SPEAKER_02]: The gun. [SPEAKER_02]: The advances on you further, his voice rising. [SPEAKER_02]: Please, send off you think. [SPEAKER_02]: If you think that those bad lands, witches, are going to take you back.

8:48 [SPEAKER_02]: After 10 years of being gone, then you are sadly mistaken. [SPEAKER_04]: I raise the gun to him. [SPEAKER_02]: He stops. [SPEAKER_04]: Step back, that is. [SPEAKER_02]: Do you know what? [SPEAKER_02]: Or what? [SPEAKER_02]: You're gonna blow me away. [SPEAKER_04]: You think you are so goddamn bulletproof, don't you?

9:11 [SPEAKER_02]: That's because I am. [SPEAKER_04]: Right, right, no, nothing ever gets to you, does it? [SPEAKER_04]: You know what I'll bet you if I shot you with this right now, you wouldn't even feel it. [SPEAKER_04]: I don't. [SPEAKER_04]: But for I have been begging you over and over again to try to understand how I'm feeling, not being able to find my family for six months and you can't bring yourself to care.

9:34 [SPEAKER_04]: You can't bring yourself to pretend to care. [SPEAKER_04]: I... Now step aside, that is, or I'm stepping over a body on my way out. [SPEAKER_02]: Why don't you do it? [SPEAKER_02]: And he begins to close the distance between you. [SPEAKER_02]: Show me what you're really made of. [SPEAKER_02]: Show me.

9:52 [SPEAKER_02]: I shouldn't. [SPEAKER_02]: Hayden. [SPEAKER_02]: You are resting peacefully in the Travelers' respite. [SPEAKER_02]: Until you begin to come to your senses. [SPEAKER_02]: something as a woken you something's off. [SPEAKER_02]: It's one of those moments in the middle of the night where you are without reason awake.

10:22 [SPEAKER_02]: And you turn and realize what may have woken you up. [SPEAKER_02]: Solomon is standing over you, a gun pointed at you. [SPEAKER_02]: You see her finger tighten on the trigger. [SPEAKER_02]: you have five seconds. [SPEAKER_02]: What do you do? [SPEAKER_01]: I cast Misty Step. [SPEAKER_01]: I appear behind Solomon and I reach around and grab around her hands around the gun and try to tilt it up.

11:07 [SPEAKER_02]: shreds it. [SPEAKER_02]: Solomon, you snap away. [SPEAKER_02]: Why? [SPEAKER_02]: You snap away. [SPEAKER_01]: Solomon. [SPEAKER_01]: Solomon. [SPEAKER_01]: You're here. [SPEAKER_01]: It's all right. [SPEAKER_01]: What's happening? [SPEAKER_04]: What happened? [SPEAKER_01]: You're all right.

11:22 [SPEAKER_01]: You're sleeping. [SPEAKER_01]: You're dreaming. [SPEAKER_01]: You're walking and talking and you're sleeping. [SPEAKER_01]: You fired your gun. [SPEAKER_04]: You go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, [SPEAKER_01]: It's all right, it's all right.

11:37 [SPEAKER_04]: Why are you okay just in today? [SPEAKER_04]: Anybody get hurt? [SPEAKER_04]: It was the only shot shot that was fired. [SPEAKER_03]: No, I think so. [SPEAKER_03]: I think you just hit the bed, you're all right, you're all right. [SPEAKER_04]: I'm sorry, I was having a dream. [SPEAKER_04]: Solomon, let me hold the gun.

11:52 [SPEAKER_04]: Is it happened before, but it's not like that here. [SPEAKER_01]: I thank you. [SPEAKER_04]: Give it to Aiden. [SPEAKER_01]: All right. [SPEAKER_04]: I was having a dream about 30 years in what happened, I've had him before, but it was, it's really vivid that time. [SPEAKER_01]: It's alright.

12:14 [SPEAKER_01]: I know this gun has had some influence on you lately. [SPEAKER_01]: Do you think I might have come from the gun? [SPEAKER_01]: We can't really rule anything out, maybe someone is affecting you, maybe there's some magic on you. [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know why, why do you have a way to find out?

12:33 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I don't, I don't know if I access to that, but maybe I can do protection from Evelyn good to maybe help a little bit, like you did with stump. [SPEAKER_04]: Would, would you, would you do that? [SPEAKER_03]: Of course. [SPEAKER_04]: Please. [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I cast, like, feel a gentle warmth kind of come over you as I cast protection from Evelyn good.

12:53 [SPEAKER_04]: I think Solomon kind of flinches a little bit at the first touch and then relaxes and accepts this ball. [SPEAKER_02]: The wave of magic sweeps over you. [SPEAKER_02]: And Solomon, you do feel small comfort at it. [SPEAKER_02]: For a moment, the burden is just a little bit lighter. [SPEAKER_02]: Hayden, the gun is ice cold in your hand.

13:33 [SPEAKER_02]: You see it flare up for a moment in a flash of green light and then go out. [SPEAKER_02]: Almost angrily. [SPEAKER_03]: Miss Solomon, is this ever happened before or something similar? [SPEAKER_04]: Not with the gun, I mean, I think I've had dreams like that before, I guess, but I never thought they were worth talking about, nothing happened and I thought, well, you can't very will kill somebody and not think about it sometimes, nothing like this though.

14:14 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, well, with the gun going off, when I tried to cast, remove curse on it, thank God I didn't give it to mags. [SPEAKER_04]: I didn't, I'm afraid because I need to keep it with me so that I can not endanger anyone else, but I also don't trust myself with it if something like this is going to happen.

14:37 [SPEAKER_00]: Also, I don't know if y'all know this, but the gun itself doesn't work. [SPEAKER_04]: You can try to shoot it. [SPEAKER_04]: It don't work. [SPEAKER_04]: Whatever magic is coming through the gun is coming through me. [SPEAKER_04]: It always has been. [SPEAKER_01]: Is there any value to why it'll me holding on to it for you?

14:52 [SPEAKER_01]: I was just thinking that too. [SPEAKER_01]: We could try. [SPEAKER_04]: And I would be happy to try, but if something happened to other y'all, I would not be able to live with myself. [SPEAKER_04]: I need to, at the very least, when I don't have control over myself, like when I'm sleeping or at the riverbank or anything else, I need to be contained.

15:14 [SPEAKER_04]: You understand? [SPEAKER_01]: We're going into dangerous territory anyway. [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think there should ever be a time. [SPEAKER_01]: One, all three of us are asleep at the same time. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I think as long as somebody's keeping watch, or I'm behind a locked door, I'd feel better about it, but also keep an eye on that gun because I think it's taking on a mind of its own.

15:36 [SPEAKER_01]: Is this something we could help with? [SPEAKER_01]: You think you could take it to the riverbank and leave it there? [SPEAKER_01]: Hell, maybe. [SPEAKER_04]: But again, I feel like every time I leave it with somebody, I leave it. [SPEAKER_04]: I leave someone else in its hands. [SPEAKER_01]: Sure, but...

15:53 [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe it can't do as much harm on the riverbank and we could find a safe place to keep it. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, hell, um, alright. [SPEAKER_04]: Virgil. [SPEAKER_02]: Make a Christmas check. [SPEAKER_04]: For efficiency? [SPEAKER_02]: Yes. [SPEAKER_04]: The 19 on the die, that is 27. [SPEAKER_04]: I think Virgil heard the shot.

16:23 [SPEAKER_02]: There is a shimmer in the room, and then from one of the corners you hear, Hello, friend. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh dear, aren't you? [SPEAKER_04]: You caught me a little jumpy, but you got to be careful before sneaking up on a critter. [SPEAKER_04]: Howdy, I have a... [SPEAKER_04]: Sorry, ask for you.

16:47 [SPEAKER_04]: If you don't mind, is there any chance you could take this off my hands and make sure it stays safe? [SPEAKER_04]: I wouldn't ask it of you, but I don't know that a gun like this could hurt you like it can hurt everybody here. [SPEAKER_04]: And it wants to hurt. [SPEAKER_04]: I just woke up and it was pointed at Hayden.

17:09 [SPEAKER_02]: They hold out their hands for the gun. [SPEAKER_04]: Can it hurt you here? [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know. [SPEAKER_04]: Virgil, I don't want to give this directly to anyone. [SPEAKER_04]: I don't feel safe given it to anyone. [SPEAKER_04]: Is there somewhere that you can put it? [SPEAKER_04]: Is there somewhere that the river can put it?

17:28 [SPEAKER_04]: Where nobody can touch it? [SPEAKER_02]: There is a place. [SPEAKER_02]: I can deliver this gun to the blade. [SPEAKER_02]: It is a place on the river bank. [SPEAKER_02]: hidden from the world, and hidden from the other side. [SPEAKER_02]: Only few may go there. [SPEAKER_02]: And perhaps, because of that, it may be the place that it's needed.

17:58 [SPEAKER_04]: Can it hurt anybody there? [SPEAKER_02]: In my experience, there is no place hurt cannot go. [SPEAKER_04]: Could we put it there for now, and keep an eye on it, and you tell me the second that anything happens? [SPEAKER_02]: I will, you have my word. [SPEAKER_04]: All right, I won't trust you, Virgil, but I swear to the river, you better not be pulling any kind of self-sacrificial shit.

18:28 [SPEAKER_04]: You better let me know if anything happens with this damn gun you understand. [SPEAKER_02]: If I were to sacrifice myself, who would take my stead? [SPEAKER_02]: Unfortunately, I do not have that luxury. [SPEAKER_04]: Between you, me and the river, if this gun hurts you, it's gonna be me.

18:45 [SPEAKER_04]: So get that gun to the gliden if anything happens to you because of it, I'm taking your place. [SPEAKER_02]: Virgil Chuckles and says, Then I guess I can't let anything happen to me because you're not ready. [SPEAKER_02]: Virgil looks at Hayden and Wyatt sort of stamie there and say, tell them hello, oh well, and then fades away, gun included.

19:16 [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, hey, well, Virgil says hello. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, man, there's a cool Virgil. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, they took the gun to a place called the Glade, where apparently, damn near nobody can find. [SPEAKER_04]: Still a little afraid, leaving it with them, but seems to be the place where it could hopefully do the least damage for now, but I'm going to keep checking in with V-Dogs.

19:41 [SPEAKER_04]: I don't trust them not to do something stupid. [SPEAKER_04]: and kind. [SPEAKER_01]: Alright, I want to know where that thing is at all times. [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. [UNKNOWN]: All right. [SPEAKER_01]: Do you think you can sleep? [SPEAKER_01]: Hell no. [SPEAKER_01]: Can you? [SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely not.

19:58 [SPEAKER_03]: Why it's out. [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, what about you, kid? [SPEAKER_01]: Why it's back. [SPEAKER_03]: Why it's, why it's a sleep already. [SPEAKER_01]: Well, he's not already. [SPEAKER_01]: So, you know the card games? [SPEAKER_01]: I know. [SPEAKER_04]: Um, and as why it goes back to sleep, I do think that Solomon is still a little stuck in the headspace of this dream and the the day that she left three and I think being reminded of that day she does after a while to say Hayden, yes, I wanted to say thank you for um, for talking to me that day on the train [SPEAKER_04]: I can't tell you how badly I wanted to disappear that day, and I'm so glad you didn't let me.

20:43 [SPEAKER_04]: Never had a best friend before, and I'm really happy I have one like you. [SPEAKER_04]: I didn't know how much I needed that, Darlin. [SPEAKER_01]: Hayden starts tearing up. [SPEAKER_01]: Hail girl, I... [SPEAKER_01]: I had already disappeared, and I just happened to walk into the... [SPEAKER_01]: compartment with just the exact right person to bring them back out again.

21:08 [SPEAKER_04]: Well, damn, we've only we had stumped to move this gun 30 feet with his major. [SPEAKER_01]: There's still hope yet. [SPEAKER_04]: Now I love you, Haley. [SPEAKER_04]: I love you, too. [SPEAKER_01]: You want some coffee? [SPEAKER_04]: You know what, sure, why not? [SPEAKER_04]: Let's take a walk.

21:28 [SPEAKER_04]: We go to the big bun to get our one-year supply of free coffee. [SPEAKER_04]: Be in time for your... Yep. [SPEAKER_04]: We'll leave you down. [SPEAKER_04]: Smoke him if you got him. [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know if we're going to be back. [SPEAKER_02]: You... you grab your coffee. [SPEAKER_02]: And... to close this out, I will say, Solome... you feel deep within you... that if you called upon this gun...

21:59 [SPEAKER_02]: out of game, you can now summon this gun as you would, a packed weapon. [SPEAKER_02]: No matter where you are, no matter where it is, even on other planes. [SPEAKER_02]: If you call it, it will come to you. [SPEAKER_02]: And then, the day arrives, the day of departure. [SPEAKER_02]: everyone is getting ready to leave.

22:32 [SPEAKER_02]: It's time to say goodbye to twin river to anyone remaining behind. [SPEAKER_02]: The first of which is Maverick Lamarch. [SPEAKER_02]: You know that if he were awake, if he were awake, you asshole. [SPEAKER_04]: We all had so much hope that he would just trot out in the, you know, is he still in a fucking skull?

23:09 [SPEAKER_04]: He's we were they okay. [SPEAKER_04]: We go visit Maverick on the hospital. [SPEAKER_02]: You do he's still out his eyes are closed He seems peaceful [SPEAKER_02]: his beard is as fiery red as ever, his circular red sunglasses are sitting on one of the bedside tables, a crack through one of its lenses, hell and high water are not on his fists.

23:41 [SPEAKER_01]: as this is a hospital and it seems wrong somehow Hayden steps up and just is thinking of something to say and nothing's coming to mind so they just reach over to an empty vase next to [SPEAKER_01]: reaches out and out of the vase, it fills with water, and then a bouquet of flowers that maybe haven't been seen in the Badlands for centuries, just browned out.

24:19 [SPEAKER_02]: Some of those wild flowers of the wilds, in those iridescent impossible shades, bloom. [SPEAKER_04]: I go to Maverick's hands, conspicuously empty without Helen High Water, and slip his signet ring back on his finger, and then add some wild roses to Hayden's bouquet. [SPEAKER_04]: Give Maverick like a little kiss on the cheek and say, thank you for everything, darling.

25:02 [SPEAKER_04]: We're going to go to three and we're going to win this. [SPEAKER_04]: And then we're going to have to come back and have drinks at the wet rat on you. [SPEAKER_04]: Not literally on you, but well, in your, in your, in your arms, it might be on you if you're still out, but why don't you wake up?

25:17 [SPEAKER_04]: And then we'll just have him on your bank account. [SPEAKER_04]: You understand. [SPEAKER_04]: Ha ha ha ha, ha ha, ha ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha [SPEAKER_03]: I want to thank you for helping my friends.

25:35 [SPEAKER_03]: We had kind of a weird introduction, so I didn't really get to know you, but you clearly mean a lot to them, and I know if Maggie and the doctors couldn't do a lot. [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if this will really help too much, but here goes. [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm going to cast greater restoration on him in the chance and put my hands and you see the warmth [SPEAKER_03]: go out over him and his body.

26:04 [SPEAKER_02]: This magic emanates from your hands. [SPEAKER_02]: This soft, warm glow. [SPEAKER_02]: And then as it fades, there's a moment where it almost feels like you could wake up at any second. [SPEAKER_02]: And then nothing. [SPEAKER_02]: That says, I don't mean to interrupt. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, why does everybody keep doing that today?

26:37 [SPEAKER_02]: If a shift stands in the doorway and says, you'd better be getting on soon. [SPEAKER_02]: It's still morning, it's still early, but there's a full day's ride ahead of you. [SPEAKER_04]: Yes, ma'am. [SPEAKER_04]: I think that right now we are just looking to say goodbye to our families, which should be pretty easy.

27:00 [SPEAKER_04]: They should all be somewhat nearby and then we'll go ahead and get on out of here. [SPEAKER_02]: You see the twinge of a smile at the corner of Schiff's mouth. [SPEAKER_02]: And she says, yes, I suppose you will find it fairly easy to say goodbye to them in one place, seeing as how they're coming with you.

27:21 [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, what? [SPEAKER_04]: Hell, they are. [SPEAKER_02]: They have all taken it upon themselves to volunteer for the expedition, they are all coming with. [SPEAKER_04]: Well, penetrating. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, I'm sure that they have taken it upon themselves to volunteer, but they can think again.

27:35 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, that is not up to me to decide. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_04]: You know what? [SPEAKER_04]: No. [SPEAKER_04]: All right. [SPEAKER_04]: Well, we're going to have to have a discussion about that. [SPEAKER_04]: At least Magdalena and Dallala Briargon. [SPEAKER_04]: Park it right here.

27:47 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, shit. [SPEAKER_02]: Best of luck you will need it. [SPEAKER_02]: And well, best of luck. [SPEAKER_04]: Thank you, director shift. [SPEAKER_02]: You too. [SPEAKER_02]: Get back to us in one piece. [SPEAKER_02]: You all still have a certain amount of your wanted rewards to work back for the city.

28:11 [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, I almost, I won't be working at all for years. [SPEAKER_04]: Ooh, I think I might be busy. [SPEAKER_01]: Mm, yep. [SPEAKER_01]: My count is full. [SPEAKER_03]: I think I'm good. [SPEAKER_03]: I think I'm good. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, why, you can help me work off mine. [SPEAKER_04]: Alright, come on.

28:29 [SPEAKER_04]: Let's go talk some old people how to do something stupid. [SPEAKER_01]: I know you would like to try and discourage your aunts from kind of long, but just remember who Lala is and how that's absolutely not going to happen. [SPEAKER_04]: Well, if ever there was somebody as stubborn as Delilah Breyer, it was me, so I'm going to do my best.

28:58 [SPEAKER_02]: The expedition gathers at the eastern gate of Twin River. [SPEAKER_02]: There are many people here. [SPEAKER_02]: There is a squadron of Twin Rivers, finest soldiers. [SPEAKER_02]: There is a squadron of Slottamatons. [SPEAKER_03]: Oh shit. [SPEAKER_02]: Which is a little startling at first and then you sort of get used to them being there.

29:25 [SPEAKER_02]: There is Winona and Rat and Charlie and Portons and Maggie and Lila. [SPEAKER_02]: You also notice that a squadron of flame knights are here as well. [SPEAKER_02]: That they have [SPEAKER_02]: Lent their aid, and you all of them are pretty fascinated. [SPEAKER_02]: They're all looking at twin river like, oh wow.

29:55 [SPEAKER_04]: Is Mordric among them? [SPEAKER_02]: Mordric is among them. [SPEAKER_02]: And there is one other person here too. [SPEAKER_02]: How in a bankrupt? [SPEAKER_02]: Is packing her things? [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, oh no, she is now. [SPEAKER_02]: She [SPEAKER_02]: and says, well, I'm glad there was one more space on this expedition.

30:23 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not 100% certain there was, Dr. Bancroft. [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, it's taken by Clive. [SPEAKER_02]: Clive is also here. [SPEAKER_02]: I forgot about Clive. [SPEAKER_02]: Clive is also here. [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_03]: That's what I'm going to be here. [SPEAKER_04]: Sorry, Clive is here.

30:36 [SPEAKER_04]: You did say that the fate's one players are here, right? [SPEAKER_02]: The fate's one players are also here. [SPEAKER_02]: Although you can't really tell. [SPEAKER_02]: They are sort of intermingled into the crowd. [SPEAKER_04]: OK, but that's cool. [SPEAKER_04]: Clovis is not here. [SPEAKER_02]: You don't know if Clovis is here.

30:52 [SPEAKER_01]: OK. Dr. Bencroft, I believe that in our last interaction, it was made clear that this was not a good choice. [SPEAKER_01]: For you to continue down this particular path. [SPEAKER_02]: The path of what? [SPEAKER_02]: Helping you? [SPEAKER_04]: Getting information at all costs and then selling it to the highest bidder.

31:19 [SPEAKER_04]: No, it's just basically what you've been doing most of the time that we've known you, and we need to know that we can keep this information safe. [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, believe me. [SPEAKER_02]: If I am continued to be allowed access to that, she points at your bag that wonderful little library in your pocket.

31:41 [SPEAKER_02]: You will have privileged information to whatever I can find. [SPEAKER_04]: And what happens when I find this, the place where this little library in my pocket belongs and send it to where it's supposed to be? [SPEAKER_02]: Well, we won't need to worry about that. [SPEAKER_02]: That is a bridge that we have not crossed yet.

32:04 [SPEAKER_02]: She's smiles and loads up. [SPEAKER_02]: and says, swing by later, I've got some things that I would like to fill you in on. [SPEAKER_02]: Some interesting tidbits have a risen from the text. [SPEAKER_02]: And I'm very excited to gain their context later on. [SPEAKER_02]: She smiles and makes her way into the crowd.

32:29 [SPEAKER_04]: Y'all, we can't let her come with us, can we? [SPEAKER_04]: Can we stop her? [SPEAKER_04]: I mean, we could. [SPEAKER_04]: I mean, but I also don't know that I want to make an enemy out of somebody that's got that much information. [SPEAKER_01]: How about we just spread the word amongst the people that we know and trust that she should not be left unattended?

32:50 [SPEAKER_03]: Could we leave her with somebody? [SPEAKER_01]: Like a babysitter? [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, like a babysitter. [SPEAKER_04]: Like if she's coming along, we have somebody keep an eye on her. [SPEAKER_04]: You know, who'd probably be really good at that? [SPEAKER_04]: Clive? [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.

33:03 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_01]: From experience, he'd be very good. [SPEAKER_01]: But I want to keep Clive close. [SPEAKER_01]: I want Clive to be as close to worse as possible. [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you did all. [SPEAKER_03]: Sorry. [SPEAKER_01]: That's the joke I was making.

33:15 [SPEAKER_01]: Right. [SPEAKER_02]: God, it is voice, too. [SPEAKER_02]: As you approach this rag tag mass of people, Hayden, you are tackled to the ground, as if you're you didn't register. [SPEAKER_02]: appears. [SPEAKER_02]: As Rat uses his assassin abilities to essentially materialize and tackle you.

33:50 [SPEAKER_02]: God damn it! [SPEAKER_01]: I love that you got the skills, kid, but you cannot do that to me. [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, well, now you're not the only one who can hide in the moments notice. [SPEAKER_02]: You know what? [SPEAKER_01]: How does it feel? [SPEAKER_01]: It feels great. [SPEAKER_01]: I'm very proud of you.

34:07 [SPEAKER_01]: Great. [SPEAKER_01]: Good. [SPEAKER_01]: You're better. [SPEAKER_01]: I like you very much. [SPEAKER_02]: Because I'm proud of you. [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you're one of my best friends, you're my brother, yeah, you're one of my best friends. [SPEAKER_04]: There we go, um, Solomon? [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, yeah.

34:21 [SPEAKER_04]: Is this what? [SPEAKER_04]: Why, like I told Hayton before, the rituals of masculinity are beyond me. [SPEAKER_04]: I was a good evening at, okay. [SPEAKER_04]: I think Ratt is doing like what boys do when their friends and I think Hayton is mirroring that energy. [SPEAKER_03]: Should I shake the ground like I did with no do not no oh no and it was No, no, no, no, they're actually just siblings.

34:48 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, yeah, no. [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, okay. [SPEAKER_02]: Why it clive Sort of appears as well. [SPEAKER_02]: You you don't you'd like These these friends sort of sneak up on you each of you Clive sort of materializes near you [SPEAKER_02]: and says, Young Master Wyatt, still doing that, huh?

35:11 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, yes. [SPEAKER_02]: I hope that I do not make decisions ill fitting of my place, but I have elected to journey with you. [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, of course. [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, you're also going home. [SPEAKER_03]: So it would be a little weird if you kind of walked like a hundred feet behind us.

35:35 [SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, of course you can come with us. [SPEAKER_03]: Actually, we have a favor to ask, maybe. [SPEAKER_03]: Would, but did you see that woman that came up the little cobald? [SPEAKER_03]: Would you be able to keep an eye on her? [SPEAKER_02]: Even when we get back to three, if she comes with us, it seems there is but one cobald in the group.

35:52 [SPEAKER_02]: I will watch her and let you know if anything changes. [SPEAKER_03]: I appreciate it. [SPEAKER_02]: I know you're good at finding people, there's a little wink, a Clive nods his head and says, very good. [SPEAKER_02]: Solome you look and see Maggie and Lila are at the moment arguing Maggie has hoisted her pack onto the back of one of the horses and Lila is removing the pack in order to place it somewhere else, as the sisters have each claimed this horse.

36:32 [SPEAKER_04]: Well, hey, you know what looks like there's only one horse and y'all are gonna have to stay behind It's a good thing you're not coming with us. [SPEAKER_02]: Otherwise this would be a real problem Maggie turns to you and says, wait, who said we weren't coming with you. [SPEAKER_04]: I Don't miss us.

36:47 [SPEAKER_02]: We are make oh Oh, this is one of those situations where you think you're in charge Right. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, no, don't make me have another fallen out with y'all over three [SPEAKER_02]: Maggie says, girl, you never had a fallen out with me. [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, well, this would be a first.

37:07 [SPEAKER_04]: You all can't possibly think that it makes any kind of damn sense to come with us. [SPEAKER_02]: Lila. [SPEAKER_04]: To Redrock, let alone to three. [SPEAKER_02]: Lila looks at you and says, girl, I have spent 10 years apart from you. [SPEAKER_02]: What little worm has entered your mind and given you such lies as to think, [SPEAKER_02]: that I would ever let you out of my side again.

37:34 [SPEAKER_04]: Well, I can appreciate the sentiment but think about who you're dealing with. [SPEAKER_04]: Think about what they have already done to get their hands on me. [SPEAKER_04]: Do you think that they would hesitate for half a second to use y'all to get to me? [SPEAKER_04]: It's nothing happened to y'all and I didn't have a place to come home to you.

37:53 [SPEAKER_04]: I would not be able to keep going. [SPEAKER_02]: Worth keeping us from you. [SPEAKER_04]: Maybe to you, but I can't lose you like that. [SPEAKER_04]: I already took a brother from them. [SPEAKER_04]: Do you think that they would hesitate to take family from me? [SPEAKER_04]: Please stay here.

38:15 [SPEAKER_04]: Hell, Aunt Lagi, you've been trying to hide it, but your hands have been shaky ever since blackthorn hollow. [SPEAKER_02]: My hands are better. [SPEAKER_04]: Show me. [SPEAKER_02]: She holds out her hands. [SPEAKER_02]: It was a slight trimmer. [SPEAKER_02]: Exactly, but it is much better than it's been and she says Girl, you're gonna have to Come to terms with the fact that you're ain't mags and I Well, we're our own people And we're able to make our own decisions Oh, it's really interesting and convenient that you decided to learn that lesson now when you want to do something I don't want you to do it couldn't have learned it a little sooner Yeah, well Life shitty like that [SPEAKER_02]: So you just the thing, dear heart, you can make us go back and we'll pretend to stay and then we'll just sort of follow along behind the group about a day's red behind or we can spend that time together.

39:20 [SPEAKER_04]: You bring a wink and Daisy along to you going to put that cat in harm's way? [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, well first off, first off, that cat is in harm's way every day he wakes up. [SPEAKER_02]: Have you seen him? [SPEAKER_02]: That cat is harm's way. [SPEAKER_02]: He's older than the gods above, and Daisy can fin for himself.

39:41 [SPEAKER_04]: Listen, as much as I'd like to, I can't make you stay behind forever, I guess. [SPEAKER_04]: Well, then it's decided. [SPEAKER_04]: You all have to promise me that you do not go within the city limits of [SPEAKER_02]: that is every bit of the dinner vipers you said it was in lightless as it is a dinner vipers that's why you need people who can deal with vipers oh oh hell if I have to use spells on y'all I'm gonna be upset ma'am Maggie turns and hops up onto the horse that they were arguing about [SPEAKER_02]: Well, I'm going to take this as an opportunity to ride on a head.

40:27 [SPEAKER_02]: Shit. [SPEAKER_02]: It seems like this conversation has come to an end anyway. [SPEAKER_02]: Seeing as how we're not going anywhere and we're sort of just going to do whatever we want to do. [SPEAKER_02]: Alright, well, because we're old ladies. [SPEAKER_04]: You know what, AntLa? [SPEAKER_04]: I know something you don't know, and then I stick my tongue out under and walk away.

40:45 [SPEAKER_02]: Lila says, and I know 10 times that that you don't know. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, but you want to know this thing you don't know. [SPEAKER_04]: I walk away, I hate and you were right, shit. [SPEAKER_02]: Told ya, and you all had out. [SPEAKER_02]: Portons is actually the one helping navigate.

41:07 [SPEAKER_02]: This group, as you actually take the same trail that you took to come to Twin River. [SPEAKER_02]: The group is doing its best to stay off the main roads. [SPEAKER_02]: Just in case three's forces are not completely withdrawn from the badlands. [SPEAKER_01]: I have Glidobaby a turn into a compass just so that it can feel helpful.

41:33 [SPEAKER_02]: Glidobaby. [SPEAKER_02]: Happily turns into a compass doesn't work just imagining it like can't figure out the magnet thing The arrow is glitter maybe is like is running on best guesses. [SPEAKER_02]: Oh life Sometimes it's north sometimes it's not you You journey back through the mountains [SPEAKER_02]: As you do, you look back, and you see twin river as you saw at the day you came in, over that rise, a beautiful, rebuilt bridge of a city.

42:20 [SPEAKER_02]: The naren and the little knife has beneath it, seemingly unmarried about what tomorrow brings. [SPEAKER_02]: and bridges will always stand over them, and whenever it does, and it's people hustle and bustle to and fro, and then it passes out of sight, and you continue into the mountains, and it's not too long, a couple days at most, that you come across the town of glad haven, and you [SPEAKER_02]: Well, at least two of you remember but the last time you were here, you were, you held a show for elder alias's elegantly eldritch elixirs.

43:17 [SPEAKER_01]: Can we do that again? [SPEAKER_02]: As you roll up to glad haven, you find it empty. [SPEAKER_03]: Was it like this, when you were here last time? [SPEAKER_01]: It was now. [SPEAKER_04]: No, there were people everywhere. [SPEAKER_04]: What does it look like? [SPEAKER_04]: There's like signs of a struggle.

43:46 [SPEAKER_04]: Is it, are there signs of what might have happened? [SPEAKER_04]: Does this look like three? [SPEAKER_02]: All of you roll investigation checks. [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_04]: 12. [SPEAKER_04]: 7. [SPEAKER_04]: 8. [SPEAKER_04]: On a seven and an eight. [SPEAKER_02]: to doors knock on them, nobody answers.

44:08 [SPEAKER_02]: And then you open the door. [SPEAKER_02]: No door in this town is locked. [SPEAKER_01]: Hmm. [SPEAKER_02]: Hayden, on a 12, a little better. [SPEAKER_02]: You don't see much signs of struggle. [SPEAKER_02]: There's no overturned chairs. [SPEAKER_02]: There's no broken windows. [SPEAKER_02]: There are no barricades.

44:34 [SPEAKER_02]: left. [SPEAKER_03]: Do you think it's worthwhile if I cast a tech magic? [SPEAKER_03]: It turns out I do have it. [SPEAKER_01]: Now might be the time. [SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to do that good old stump trick where I say I'm going to do something way to 11 minutes and then cast a tech magic where I ritual cast it but I'm praying instead of huffing fumes and then I run through the town because it only has a 30 foot radius.

45:01 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm hoping to pay me something. [SPEAKER_04]: I will actually, why it, what am I thinking? [SPEAKER_04]: I can actually help with that. [SPEAKER_04]: I haven't had that spell too. [SPEAKER_04]: So I think both of us can do it. [SPEAKER_04]: We can run together holding hands. [SPEAKER_04]: We could skip through the town holding it.

45:15 [SPEAKER_04]: Well, the thing is, dear heart, I was thinking that maybe if we went in different directions that my cover more ground. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, okay, that's the word. [SPEAKER_04]: But you know what? [SPEAKER_04]: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, [SPEAKER_02]: And find that there is no current magic in this area, there are no active spells, there's nothing, there's nothing waiting for you, there are no traps, there's no, there's no spells waiting to be set off, however, with your detect magic, you feel a faint aura.

46:12 [SPEAKER_02]: magic that was here. [SPEAKER_02]: You cannot tell what it did, but you can tell the kind of magic that it was. [SPEAKER_02]: It's not really a school of magic, but it is of a source. [SPEAKER_02]: It is celestial magic. [SPEAKER_03]: That's not good. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, Hayden, that feels like Tom, not 3d.

46:47 [SPEAKER_04]: Does that mean... [SPEAKER_01]: Stumps been here. [SPEAKER_04]: It seems like he might have been, and I... Look, y'all, I don't want to be alarming, but I sent a message to Kate Stainland ages ago, and I've not heard back. [SPEAKER_04]: It seems like he might be making the rounds. [SPEAKER_01]: I need to know how to get to Mountain Creek, much less, I'll see even having time to check, but it's dumb, Tom making an army, like we are.

47:14 [SPEAKER_04]: Ooh, that's not a thought I like thinking about. [SPEAKER_01]: We don't rat the know what he's been up to. [SPEAKER_04]: It's possible, but it almost seems like we ought to send somebody to look in on Mountain Creek. [SPEAKER_04]: It's close enough to three that it's just as close as Red Rock if someone would be willing to go.

47:32 [SPEAKER_03]: Do we want to send Phil Amina again? [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, she can, but I hate sending this woman on errands all the time. [SPEAKER_04]: I think she might kind of enjoy it, honestly. [SPEAKER_04]: Well, we can always, you know, Alright, I have a thought, why? [SPEAKER_04]: Do we want to send a couple of spells to, I guess we can ask Follow Me, and if she can look in on Mountain Creek, which is to be careful.

47:54 [SPEAKER_04]: And then I also want to descend to a spell to Clementine, just to see how everybody ends in underpass is doing. [SPEAKER_03]: Definitely, that's a great idea. [SPEAKER_04]: I just want to make sure that everything's okay and all the other towns that we've been to. [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, we've got enough uses.

48:08 [SPEAKER_03]: We can send messages to everybody. [SPEAKER_04]: Okay. [SPEAKER_04]: Well, if we got this spell's to burn today, I think we just send a message to damn near everybody we know and tell them to look out for stump to not trust him and to make sure that everything's okay all in there. [SPEAKER_01]: And it's not good close if they do see him.

48:26 [SPEAKER_03]: What if we, what if we send it to, I can only do this nine times, but what if we send it to [SPEAKER_04]: That is a really wonderful idea why it, I think we should do that. [SPEAKER_04]: I think let's send it to all the people that we directly know and then we can have Earl just send out a general warning to everybody.

48:44 [SPEAKER_03]: It's like your cell phone, like tornado or a big alert. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

49:05 [SPEAKER_04]: Shift, cordrin, Clementine, I think Belinda Bartle definitely ought to know, just in case she runs into stump out east. [SPEAKER_04]: And then we got Dart from Black Dornhalla, Maeve, and maybe Larissa. [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, so I'm going to send one to Filomena, asking her to check out Mountain Creek.

49:24 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to send one to Earl, telling him to warn everyone. [SPEAKER_03]: And then for everyone else, I send out [SPEAKER_03]: It's why it heading to 3d, how are things with you? [SPEAKER_03]: If you see stump or a deep-nome with glowing eyes, run. [SPEAKER_02]: You, you press send. [SPEAKER_02]: On a, on an email blast.

49:48 [SPEAKER_01]: Does why it make the little noise that all the other ones do? [SPEAKER_01]: He's a little Oh, it's just a sentence thing. [SPEAKER_03]: I don't like just a U.S. PS thing. [SPEAKER_03]: That's interesting. [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, no, it's, it doesn't have components. [SPEAKER_03]: It has a sound.

50:03 [SPEAKER_03]: That's the verbal component. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, our F-sounding. [SPEAKER_04]: Hey, the more you know. [SPEAKER_02]: Great. [SPEAKER_02]: You send them out. [SPEAKER_02]: Phylamana is among the first to respond. [SPEAKER_02]: And she says, [SPEAKER_02]: you ain't got to tell me twice. [SPEAKER_02]: I'm there, girly.

50:28 [SPEAKER_03]: That's it. [SPEAKER_03]: Thanks, Filamenta. [SPEAKER_02]: I'll check in on your people's kisses. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, I love her. [SPEAKER_03]: Why it leaves that last word out because he's uncomfortable. [SPEAKER_03]: Well, he's relaying the information to the others. [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, she didn't sign it off, that seems unlike her.

50:54 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, she said regards. [SPEAKER_01]: It seems even more unlike her. [SPEAKER_01]: Insight check. [SPEAKER_01]: It was weird. [SPEAKER_02]: Ha ha. [SPEAKER_02]: You, you also hear back from Clim. [SPEAKER_00]: Oh. [SPEAKER_02]: And the message says, [SPEAKER_00]: I don't approach things that glow what shouldn't, but I'll inform the Thunder Passions.

51:17 [SPEAKER_00]: We started combat training, for the war. [SPEAKER_00]: You all take care. [SPEAKER_01]: Oh. [SPEAKER_01]: That cleans good people. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I'm glad to hear that Stump hadn't made his way out there yet. [SPEAKER_04]: It does leave me wondering if he is kind of making his way east like we are.

51:38 [SPEAKER_01]: Like some place where going? [SPEAKER_04]: Either that or straight for the city of Black Glass, I don't know. [SPEAKER_01]: We've got to figure out where the hell that place is. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, it seems like Stump's traveling a little bit ahead of what we are. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, we'd better get on the road.

51:56 [SPEAKER_01]: Let's get to it. [SPEAKER_02]: And you leave Gladhaven. [SPEAKER_02]: unsure of what happened. [SPEAKER_02]: And unsure if there's anything you can do about it. [SPEAKER_02]: You press on. [SPEAKER_02]: It's not too long before you come upon Durleton. [SPEAKER_02]: The sign before it's still reading, no peddlers of potions, healing, or outside merchants of any kind, let not the mere merchants of the world pedal their wares amongst you, less do you forget the touch of the eternal flame.

52:32 [SPEAKER_02]: It's church looms over the town, as it did before. [SPEAKER_02]: And you find that this town is also abandoned. [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, God, I don't like that. [SPEAKER_01]: I have two different things I'd like to try. [SPEAKER_01]: One is I'd like to roll a survival check to look for signs of stump specifically and where you might have been gone.

53:00 [SPEAKER_01]: The loyal stands of mayonnaise. [SPEAKER_04]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, if I got a really high perception check, could I smell the mayonnaise?

53:16 [SPEAKER_01]: That's an at 20. [SPEAKER_01]: Ooh, whoa. [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_02]: This town is different. [SPEAKER_02]: Unlike glad haven? [SPEAKER_02]: Or, in glad haven, when you went into the houses, it looked like people were still living there. [SPEAKER_02]: Even though there was no one there.

53:34 [SPEAKER_02]: There was food in the cabinets. [SPEAKER_02]: Everything was in its place, here, the drawers are empty, the stock piles are gone. [SPEAKER_02]: These people left, you, with a net 20, the vibe of this place is different. [SPEAKER_02]: The previous one was Spooky, this one, the people packed up and left.

54:11 [SPEAKER_02]: likely, likely due to Red Rock, which is not as far away as you'd might think. [SPEAKER_01]: Are there any animals around? [SPEAKER_02]: On that 20, yeah, there's a lizard. [SPEAKER_04]: Let's see if that's the same for me. [SPEAKER_02]: Sure, there's like a horned lizard. [SPEAKER_01]: I'd like to use the speech of the woods to ask the lizard if it knows anything about what happened here.

54:45 [SPEAKER_02]: Go ahead. [SPEAKER_02]: What do you ask? [SPEAKER_01]: Excuse me, the little one. [SPEAKER_01]: Matt, have a moment of your time. [SPEAKER_02]: The lizard looks up at you incredulously. [SPEAKER_02]: Not accustomed to being spoken to. [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I'm so sorry to disturb you. [SPEAKER_01]: I can look like you if that makes you more comfortable, anyway.

55:08 [SPEAKER_01]: Happy to give you some bugs. [SPEAKER_01]: It's something in exchange for some information. [SPEAKER_01]: Wink, go get a bug. [SPEAKER_02]: Wink? [SPEAKER_02]: Wink, get a bug. [SPEAKER_02]: Wink just looks at you and then goes back to sleep. [SPEAKER_02]: Wink, like, turns over in a sleep.

55:28 [SPEAKER_02]: Just pays you no mind. [SPEAKER_03]: I give Wink like a, why it gives Wink like a little push push. [SPEAKER_03]: Like, you can do it. [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know if I genuinely don't know if he can. [SPEAKER_02]: The, the horned lizard looks at you and says, I like bugs. [SPEAKER_01]: Great, I'll get you some bugs if you can help me out with something.

[SPEAKER_02]: Wayne looks over at the lizard and looks at you. [SPEAKER_02]: It just goes back to sleep, he does nothing. [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah, great.

58:37 [SPEAKER_02]: And you head out from Drolton. [SPEAKER_04]: As we're traveling, I'm kind of doing, well, consistently keeping an eye out on people who might be kind of strangers to see if any of them might be hue. [SPEAKER_02]: Okay. [SPEAKER_04]: And then I would also like to have a quick chat with Laila and Maggie.

58:59 [SPEAKER_02]: Uh, roll an insight check with this advantage. [SPEAKER_04]: Okay, I am gonna add the plus two from the mask that they gave me. [SPEAKER_02]: Ooh, okay, you just slipped the mask on. [SPEAKER_04]: That's an 18 and a 19 on the die. [SPEAKER_04]: Ooh, wow. [SPEAKER_02]: You bet there's that Hexblade curse.

59:17 [SPEAKER_04]: 25. [SPEAKER_02]: You're headed to Lila's tent. [SPEAKER_02]: You have ironwood at your side. [SPEAKER_02]: You're looking around. [SPEAKER_02]: You could just swear one of the guards is speaking into his tune-it, and then that guard turns and walks off. [SPEAKER_04]: I want to keep tabs on who that guard is, what he looks like so that I can come back.

59:51 [SPEAKER_04]: To you, I think I want to let you have their peace for now, but before we get to three, might be nice to chat with them. [SPEAKER_04]: And yeah, I head over to Mags and Lie. [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah? [SPEAKER_04]: Hi. [SPEAKER_04]: a couple questions for you since y'all decided that you'd simply had to tag along.

1:00:14 [SPEAKER_04]: I think, you know, I figured maybe we could make ourselves useful. [SPEAKER_02]: Let's sort of look at each other and go up and Maggie goes, oh, so we owe you. [SPEAKER_04]: is no what you mean no no no you don't owe me anything but if you decide to come along even though I didn't want you to I think I might as well you know start you know utilize in your skills as part of the war effort since you wanted to be here so badly mm-hmm all right all right right sing your song darling what you got well [SPEAKER_04]: I wanted to let y'all know about the gun a little bit of an incident, the not before we left and so I gave it to Virgil to put in the blade for now so that I wouldn't be able to get

1:01:27 [SPEAKER_02]: name I heard in a long time you heard of the glade well in the years that your mama started to print a thing well whenever she get on our nerves we get on hers you know as sisters or want to do the glade would be where she would scamp her off to to cool [SPEAKER_02]: sort of a nowhere place, she called it.

1:02:03 [SPEAKER_02]: No one goes in, no one goes out, it's calm, peaceful, tranquil. [SPEAKER_02]: She always came back with her head on straight, so I never, I never paid it too much mind. [SPEAKER_02]: Never thought I'd hear of it again. [SPEAKER_04]: Vee just said it was the best place to maybe put the guns or that nothing would happen with it.

1:02:25 [SPEAKER_04]: I mean, I woke up the other day with it pointed at Hayden and I was dreaming of that. [SPEAKER_04]: It's so we needed to do something and Vee put it there. [SPEAKER_04]: But the point of all that is that I don't have it anymore, and I certainly don't intend to use it anymore, I get the feeling that I could probably call on it in a pinch, but I don't want to.

1:02:48 [SPEAKER_04]: And this has been quite the trusty sword, and I'm just wondering if y'all might help me sharpen it a little bit before we get to three. [SPEAKER_02]: Lilith smiles, says, yeah, in lieu of being able to do anything about the gun, I think I can give that old sword sharpen. [SPEAKER_04]: Are you sure?

1:03:15 [SPEAKER_02]: Why I got to be sure of anything girl, why do you doubt me every day every day every day every day you're getting up there so I just want to know I'm getting up there That's hot that's hot stuff coming from you the young one little sprout. [SPEAKER_04]: Thank you Ella. [SPEAKER_04]: I appreciate you.

1:03:36 [SPEAKER_02]: You're welcome. [SPEAKER_04]: I love you [SPEAKER_02]: I love you too. [SPEAKER_04]: Hell. [SPEAKER_02]: Sheet. [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, and I give her the sword. [SPEAKER_04]: And after a few seconds of silence, I say... [SPEAKER_04]: If y'all ever hated anybody. [SPEAKER_02]: Hmm, there's a long pause.

1:03:58 [SPEAKER_02]: Lylisa's... [SPEAKER_02]: I did once. [SPEAKER_02]: That was a long time ago. [SPEAKER_04]: Who was that? [SPEAKER_02]: Are you think I'm going to tell you? [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I think you ain't going to be all cryptic like that, and then not tell me. [SPEAKER_02]: I hated this person because I thought they... Well, I thought they took something very near and dear.

1:04:20 [SPEAKER_04]: Jack? [SPEAKER_02]: No, not Jack. [SPEAKER_02]: You got to give stuff to Jack. [SPEAKER_02]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha [SPEAKER_02]: Maggie thinks about it for a minute and says I don't know.

1:04:46 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't much go in for that kind of thing. [SPEAKER_02]: Hate's much too strong word. [SPEAKER_02]: Hate is... [SPEAKER_02]: It's a little bit like dog poop. [SPEAKER_04]: Is that so? [SPEAKER_02]: Much too common. [SPEAKER_02]: Ain't worth a hill of beans. [SPEAKER_02]: No, I never found myself hating somebody.

1:05:07 [SPEAKER_02]: Even the people who were... ...when they're down, right unpleasant. [SPEAKER_02]: They still got a song they're singing. [SPEAKER_02]: And even if it... [SPEAKER_02]: Even if it don't land right on my ears... ...don't mean I can't hate the tune for living. [SPEAKER_04]: I look at Lila, like, can you believe this woman?

1:05:28 [SPEAKER_02]: Lila... Lila leans over to you and says... [SPEAKER_04]: I can't actually, that sounds terrible. [SPEAKER_04]: I love being her niece more than anything, but good Lord. [SPEAKER_04]: Thank you Aunt Mags, that's a very thoughtful answer. [SPEAKER_04]: Ever hate yourself? [SPEAKER_02]: Lila says, yeah, sometimes.

1:05:57 [SPEAKER_02]: A lot of times it happens in the middle of the night. [SPEAKER_02]: I'm awake. [SPEAKER_02]: My brain won't turn off. [SPEAKER_02]: Won't stop spewing bad things. [SPEAKER_02]: So I tell it to shut up. [SPEAKER_02]: I try and go to sleep or get up and make myself a coffee or do whatever I can to remind myself that at the end of the day, I'm all I got.

1:06:30 [SPEAKER_02]: Then do much good hate and the only thing you got. [SPEAKER_02]: I can tell you to go easy on yourself, I can tell you what you've done ain't so bad. [SPEAKER_04]: You be lying. [SPEAKER_02]: I can tell you there's loads of people out here who've done far worse and done it for free. [SPEAKER_02]: But at the end of the day what I say don't mean a hill leads.

1:06:58 [SPEAKER_02]: It's your voice. [SPEAKER_02]: The voice in your head. [SPEAKER_02]: You gotta talk down. [SPEAKER_02]: You're right, and I love you dearly, and just know that we're always gonna be here to help silence that voice in your head. [SPEAKER_02]: Wherever we can. [SPEAKER_02]: You know that?

1:07:20 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I know that. [SPEAKER_02]: Good. [SPEAKER_04]: I love y'all, I'm glad you're here. [SPEAKER_04]: I'm not scared to tell how to mate. [SPEAKER_02]: Maggie nudges like or Lila yeah no Maggie nudges Lila is just you hear that She's happy we're here get in here give me a hug and help me sharpen this name sword I love you He's still like known inside three they hug and say you couldn't stop us if you tried And Lord knows I'm trying and they help sharpen the blade [SPEAKER_02]: And Solomon, Ironwood is now a plus two weapon.

1:08:03 [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, thank you. [SPEAKER_02]: And you continue. [SPEAKER_02]: And eventually, there comes a point in the travels when a section of the soldiers, knights, and slot of batons, take the rightmost fork in the path [SPEAKER_02]: Wondling your numbers. [SPEAKER_04]: Did Charlie important stay with us?

1:08:32 [SPEAKER_02]: They don't. [SPEAKER_02]: And so as they turn to leave, Portons slings three bottles of superior healing. [SPEAKER_02]: Potions of superior healing into your hands. [SPEAKER_02]: And say, One thing before we go, Don't die. [SPEAKER_02]: I've unfortunately come to be fumbed. [SPEAKER_02]: of you folks and even you points to you why it says though I don't really know you why it's already turning to Maggie and Lila to have them check the potion right great love that love that oh it's a it's been nice meeting you too sir yeah yeah perfect with a snuffer right so I think I think this is our [SPEAKER_02]: We're going to act as clerics for the, for the battalion here, in case anything goes south.

1:09:33 [SPEAKER_04]: Professor, before I let you go, I think I actually have something to yours that I need to give back. [SPEAKER_02]: Well, I'll be damned. [SPEAKER_02]: Dreams do come true. [SPEAKER_02]: Ha ha. [SPEAKER_02]: Charlie gives y'all a hug. [SPEAKER_02]: And says, stay safe. [SPEAKER_02]: Y'all are some of the first friends I made.

1:10:13 [SPEAKER_04]: Mm-hmm. [SPEAKER_02]: I wanna do another potion show with y'all. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I'd love that. [SPEAKER_04]: Now that'd be fun, especially with the potions like really work in this time. [SPEAKER_02]: Ha ha. [SPEAKER_02]: I wasn't gonna say anything. [SPEAKER_04]: With my family until we could put on a real show, get y'all some big sales, and we've got, we've got your folks, we've got at mags, we got Charlie here is now like a full-fledged stage persona.

1:10:38 [SPEAKER_04]: Hmm, I, this seems like you really did find your on stage persona, Charlie, don't lot of me, you have. [SPEAKER_02]: Well, I mean, maybe, maybe it came to me. [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_04]: Well, hey, dear heart, you take care of yourself and that old syndicate yours, all right? [SPEAKER_02]: Somebody has, too, and they had their separate ways.

1:11:04 [SPEAKER_02]: And you come upon one more town, Providence. [SPEAKER_02]: The town of Providence looks the way you left it, disheveled, empty. [SPEAKER_02]: You still see a half-torn may hue festival, banner. [SPEAKER_02]: Upturned stalls in the streets, sweet rolls long, long gone, and it's silent. [SPEAKER_02]: Is there anything you say as you pass through Providence?

1:11:43 [SPEAKER_04]: I think it's less about what's said first all of a night and more about like throughout Hayden especially you when you first met all my she held herself very gingerly and very [SPEAKER_04]: Willowie and a little like almost like fragile, and her voice was higher, and she was beautiful in a very like male gaze typeway, I think.

1:12:12 [SPEAKER_04]: And as you've gotten to know her, I think she's gotten more comfortable in her clumsiness and her opinion being heard and her voice being heard and her [SPEAKER_04]: face not being perfect, and her hair not being perfect, and she's lost some of the self-consciousness and the fear that she left 3d with, and as we move back through Providence, you just hear her voice getting a little bit higher, and she's sitting up a little bit straighter, and she's checking her hair more often, and she's checking her face more often, and she's speaking a little less.

1:12:48 [SPEAKER_04]: and a little more quietly, and when people begin to speak over her, she stops talking. [SPEAKER_01]: Hayden also doesn't say anything in particular, but imagines the crowd of people all starting to fight all around them. [SPEAKER_01]: And the moments just before that, when Hayden was absolutely ready to [SPEAKER_01]: for one of many times, sacrifice themselves and take that first shot at Luther in order to be the hero with no concern over their own body, other own safety and [SPEAKER_01]: How saw the May and Stump and Wyatt and Winona and Rat and Maggie and Lyle and so many other people have been telling them to use their head.

1:13:53 [SPEAKER_01]: Hayden's in a new place now where they want to live because they've got things to live for now. [SPEAKER_02]: Why it? [SPEAKER_02]: Providence you weren't here for. [SPEAKER_02]: Although you saw the images in Solomon's flashback and on some level you knew what happened but being here, being here's different, perhaps on some level it deepens all of this makes it a little more real, these things did happen.

1:14:36 [SPEAKER_02]: That is why I feel. [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, so why it was not here. [SPEAKER_03]: But as you said, knows a lot about it. [SPEAKER_03]: And he's going to grab the Mayhew Festival banner and tie it to that pole that stump. [SPEAKER_03]: had did the back flip off of. [SPEAKER_02]: I swan dive into the pain from it.

1:15:04 [SPEAKER_03]: And it's going to light it on fire. [SPEAKER_03]: Hopefully, cleansing this town of everything that came with the festival, this time around, and allowing it to start a new. [SPEAKER_02]: You do. [SPEAKER_02]: The fire crackles for a while, [SPEAKER_02]: lights the streets, and the town remains silent.

1:15:33 [SPEAKER_02]: In the distance, on the horizon, you see the peaks of the Grand Iron Mountains, and you know somewhere in that range is 3d. [SPEAKER_02]: That as you are coming for it, it is coming for you. [SPEAKER_02]: and someone for each of you is waiting and soon you will have to meet them and that is where we'll pick up next time.
