Now I don't know how much that would mean to your characters and I don't know if it means anything to zozo I don't think so.
Yeah so I wanted to just it's like hey it's there don't know what you want to do about it. I have a question about that when it comes to the effect on red dragonborn does it have it like does it give us like a berserker's high or something with it like is that why they put a stamp on it or is it just like no this is our ritualistic weed and we just don't touch it. No no no it's definitely not a mellow thing it's not a piece pipey type of like it is there's a famous red dragonborn on the show that was heavily addicted to it but one of the reasons the red dragonborn kind of put a stamp on it was one it's associated with the mountain so it's kind of one of those things where it's like in a weird way it's associated with red dragonborn and thus it can be blamed for but mostly it's like taking steroids it's cheating it's it's like oh that's not your strength that's borrowed power same reason they don't like magic for the most part same reason they don't you know like someone like Draconis who was a pretty powerful sorcerer not you know not a warrior by any means he kind of needed that to get by and he was loathed for that kind of thing so yeah it's it's more of a stigma I think attached to it.
I think if nobody goes for it quickly Kriv would grab it. How much of it because there's a decent amount here like a bushel's worth. Oh I would say enough for maybe four or five like probably like four or five hits of it like hits worth. Okay I thought you're gonna say pounds and I'm like no shit okay I Pablo chill the fuck out like. No so he would take a few I mean because he's I mean he's into the whole nature shit. That's what everyone says who starts from that. It's a plant man it comes from nature. So yeah so he would he would take a few and he's he's thinking that you know if he prepares this the route this next you know basically the next week a little over a week or so if he prepares that he has it ready to go if this is kind of a boost but at a cost and we need it in a pinch it's a resource.
So almost almost been around he's he's not he wouldn't have skirted a party you know I'm saying there's a musician yeah like yeah there's there's a there's a decent chance he's come across this stuff. Is there a chance he does the whole what's the name of it hey man you don't want none of this. Oh the Dewey Cox. Yeah yeah. You don't want no part of this shit like that. Part of this shit Dewey yeah Criv. Yeah that's up to you I mean that depends on your past experience you know like obviously you're clean now but like in your younger days you know. Yeah I imagine that if he sees Criv picking that he might kind of like just twinge for a second and kind of move out to him it's like hey I'm not a bad stuff will get in your head man.
It's awesome don't don't don't don't get me wrong but. Turns all your good your bad feelings into good feelings. Your sex is even better. But no it it's you know what you're the leader I'm sorry it's just oh boy that's that's some stuff right there and it's a lot of people I've seen a lot of people think that it's just like fun for a party or a little shortcut for a little more energy to kind of keep going and. Well my thought is not for. Not for fun. But for us if it gives us this extra strength. Worst case scenario. One may help. That's where my thought is.
Well I've been off the stuff for a while and last time I said one one's good enough for me then I was back on it for a while again and I got to stay off it so. What what are you two talking about I thought you were just picking up lunch. Yeah no no you know what. I'll let you handle this one boss said my piece. You know this stuff and he's going to kind of like just like hold up a chunk that he's just like torn from the bush. Yeah but clover doesn't. Clover is kind of huddling behind almost just like. I think last time I touched that. They didn't like that very much just kind of like.
They got mad when I touched it it's the bad bad. Yeah yeah. You're saying this can make us stronger. You'll feel stronger. OK you'll keep us stronger. It will give us a. So we're not going to take much. We're only going to take a little bit. Throughout our journey we're going to let it dry out. When it's dry we're going to grind it up and we're going to have it ready to go. Sounds good. It's going to be a big a big task in front of us. And if we run across any dragonborn we don't know nothing. I don't know that thing. There you go. When it comes to almost passed more specifically.
Where where on the Ric Flair gauge of style and profile and would you say he falls in terms of his drug and alcohol history. Well his job was more bodyguard than member of the band. So like he wasn't afraid to party and he joined a little bit but his job was more just kind of like make sure they get left alone while they were part in. Yeah he tried to learn a few parts or whatever but he was like the band obviously was more capable than he was of handling actual violence his job was just to look big. So he just kind of didn't get to get as deep into it but he dabbled.
Okay. Let's say that you guys took whatever you're going to take. So okay one more question before we move on from that. Did Zozo take any or is no. No he's just like good move Kriv. Like okay good on you. Yeah we'll need this. That was awesome. Okay let's say that was two days ago right. You pick up stuff and you're you know you're you're moving right along right. And a total of five days has passed since that traveled I roll. And I would say this is probably let's say 6 p.m. let's say so it's you know the sun's getting pretty low in the sky and it's been it's been a long day of walking and there's a there's a bunch of times throughout your journey that you've had to hop over little chasms or you've had to kind of work together to bridge a gap that's maybe you know seven eight nine feet across like nothing massive but it's one of those oh god give me a hand might have to hammer a pitten piton in I don't know someone please correct me in the audience.
Spiky thing. Spiky thingy. So you might have to hammer in one of those tie a rope to it and swing or something like that you know just just it's it's a little slow going here and there but you get to kind of be above at least Bandit's Rest. And I need to know who's who's leading the pack here. I want to say Zozo's kind of trying to be daring and kind of trying to jump the chasms first and and and sure climb the fastest and stuff back to his old habits. Sure okay. This has been a relatively flatter path like you've gotten to like a plateau and it's been it's been kind of nice and it's just one of those days where like okay look let's take advantage of it being flat now and just push ahead let's just go one more hour and and just just get there.
I need all of you to make a dexterity saving throw please and it will be a high check. This is your tune. Next. Okay. 13 is honestly higher for all more than it should be. Yeah. 15 for Clover, 7 for Zozo, that's shocking. Is it am I trying to impress or prove that I'm better than someone else in this on this specific role because I got a background ability for a reroll. Oh and a three for Crypt so well that makes sense. There's nothing about this particular jump that is noteworthy at all honestly this is like a five foot hop so it's it's pretty flat terrain almost almost a path and there's like a little a little like a little gap where like there was probably like a rock slide at one point or something and then there's there's some shrubbery on the other side and stuff like that so it looks pretty stable you jump and everyone but Clover.
Go go ahead. I've got all these plus ones. I've got all these plus ones. Sure. How many do you want me to throw in? Well you just tell me like just blanket five. Here's what we'll do you do have all these plus ones and that's for that's for showing up to premieres and I thank you for that trying to get other cast members to do it wink wink hint hint. So join me. So here's what we'll do if you throw in a couple for yourself it'll be you two up there three and a seven is going to be really hard to like. I think it's poetic that the cousins are back up there unaffected.
Yeah and Kriv and Zozo maybe have to work out their differences and like a spin off maybe I don't know. Well we've got rope. Well here's the thing this is going to be somewhat deep now what happened is the other side the shrubbery is kind of covering up a not a trap door but like a loose configuration of stone and when you landed on it it just gave way and you're going to slide down about 10 feet and then that's just a drop. Now I need to see how deep the drop is it's fairly deep we know that so one of you is going to be rolling to see how deep the drop is and the other is going to be rolling to see if there's like little ledges things like that that you can bounce off of take a little less damage maybe grab on to that kind of thing.
So how about Zozo rolls to see how deep we are. Yeah I was going to suggest that. Yeah I'll take that one. You don't want it like 100 feet deep. No confidence. I'll try not to. I want to take some of the burden off of your shoulders. I appreciate it. I want a flat d20 and we're going to multiply that by 10. So we want low rolls baby. So don't we want Ryan to roll this one? No because it's going to do the opposite. Ryan doesn't roll the number he rolls or he rolls a result. I roll fail. That's that's what I roll. Enough talking. Oh it was almost a six. That's 160 feet baby.
It's a mountain. It's a mountain right? It's deep as shit. Now okay Ryan. Now I need Kriv here here now on a scale of one to ten. How nasty and steep is this? Like a one it's not very nasty and steep at all. Like it's you know there's there's ledges to to potentially grab on to and I'll have you guys make another check. If it's ten this is just a straight like just a fucking chasm and then we got problems. So give me give me a d10 baby. Low roll. We're shooting for a low roll. Roll it. You motherfucker. You motherfucker. Like okay I take it back. Ryan rolls a number not the result.
No wait that's a ten. Yes. Okay no okay it's tens. He rolls the result. No wait. You're redeemed. He's redeemed. That's what it is. No he's not. Wait. It was a straight shot. Ten's the bad one? I was very clear. Okay I wasn't listening probably. I was ten. I hadn't switched. I just saw ten I thought ten feet. I'm like why do you think I called you a motherfucker? Like I don't know. So here's here's what's gonna happen. Uh oh boy. First of all go ahead go ahead. Is so if uh if Clover and uh Elmo made it across first is there a chance that they could try and catch them and pull them the rest of the way over before the inevitable horrible woman?
I with those rolls this is instantaneous. This isn't like oops we teetered on the edge a bit. This is three seven like they almost dove head first in. So here okay we know it's 160 feet. That's a that's 16 d6s I believe if my math is correct. But with Therian rules we have to worry about broken legs. So let's let's deal with one thing first. How about that? Yeah still falling. Yeah yeah so uh I'm just gonna take a while. Yeah I'm just gonna roll once and apply that to both of you. You both got nice full health bars right? We've had long rests. But I mean how long is it to fall?
We fall our distance in a round right? That's 60 that's like 30 feet 60 feet if you do a full movement. You got at least two rounds of falling. I mean like falling is faster than velocity. Yeah okay let's see how much is the average Dragonborn way if if Zozo leaves Detroit going 50 miles an hour. I'm just speaking by like general d&d rules. I think you fall like up to your speed but maybe not in Theria so that's fine. Look I that doesn't make any sense because you're gonna fall faster than you run. Yeah it's 160 feet. I know it's bad uh so look here's here's what we're gonna do.
I don't think this is gonna kill you outright. Are you sure? I don't want it to. How about okay so Kriff's got 25 max hit points. I could challenge that I mean I I can. What please no I can I can challenge that I don't think we're gonna die. Oh so don't do some coke on the way down like what okay let's let's do this. This is what maybe so we can shake one of those d6s off because the first 10 feet are free uh so it's 15. Yeah first taste is free and the rest is that's good good god. Okay okay well let's see what happens here uh rip off that band-aid. Yeah we're gonna we're gonna do something here.
I oh it doesn't it only goes up to 8d6. I gotta type this out guys hold up sorry. Yeah we got it we got it tight. Oh man we learned this trick behind the scenes. Let's see bless shield of faith what other things can I cast on the way down? You can't it's illegal. Why why why is it illegal falling what like I thought if I didn't have time. If I consider well you got two rounds you can okay I forgot those I'm gonna burn all my fire. If I consider the ground evil and I cast protection from good and evil can I look protection from gravity protection from ground that the ground is neither good nor evil your dice rolls are evil if not absolutely here's here's here's what I'm gonna say and this is stupid but get ready so this cavern does narrow eventually right uh the the the the shaft and it gets to a point where it's about like 12 feet around like across.
If you guys gripped each other and then tried to like do the the you're you're you're falling like you're parachuting almost and then extend your legs at the last second you might be able to kind of now keep in mind we're still probably talking about broken limbs or something sure unless the damage is like you know crazy so here's what we're gonna do right now you're looking at 15 d6s all I want you two to do is give me a strength save both of you and if both of you roll 12 or higher I'm gonna shave half of those dice off okay okay. I'm just picturing Kriv kind of just like going for that idea and like grasping Zozo so kind of like follows like oh shit okay we're doing this like going full plank yeah there's not not a lot of time to debate not a lot of time to think it through that kind of thing so okay here we go all right we're going full embers new groove here 14 for Zozo now Ryan all you gotta do is get me a 12 or higher listen to the words that I'm saying I don't have any control over this if I had control over it we'd be in a different area I feel like spiritually you do somehow I don't know how but like you're holding yourself back I need to okay you know what I'm just gonna it's like the secret you got to put it out in the universe did you ever watch Yu-Gi-Oh there you go we'll leave it the cards okay so here's what we're gonna do we're gonna cut that in half and just eight d6s here we go easy baby 27 I live bitch so I would say that you guys are going to fall and remarkably flatly that's a 14 and a 20 so you guys are going to be able to extend it's not going to be good or pretty or healthy and you're gonna fold in the middle instantly so you're probably gonna like boom slam heads fall in the rest of the way and you've kept yourself from dying but that doesn't mean you're healthy and good so right off the bat Kriv is knocked out Zozo with 27 damage how much health does that leave you three okay so holy shit let's let's flash on back up to to Clover and Almo who have narrowly avoided this but did avoid it so you're looking down into this hole it's like oh this is deep oh and yeah clover I think is like she's like whoa whoa that was crazy did you did you see that I kind of like did this slidey thing in there and yeah yeah you landed like the like one hand down and one hand out like the like kind of it was really cool I think we're yeah where'd they go that's it roger where'd they go oh you know we're the wild word look down god the only one who speaks roger is down in the hole I'm not dead oh and he's not dead he's probably here like wow are you both alive down there there no no no no just instantly leave him for dead I am the leader now okay yeah hold on and he's got and uh omo is going to uh use a first level uh spell slot to cast a proper comprehend languages instead of waiting to ritual do it and uh he's going to ask roger if roger can find him a uh a way down that people like them could make it down easily enough with uh roger would uh it's like I'm on it bra and he's gonna he's gonna get ready and kind of traipse off uh but to everyone else it's you going you brought and he's he's like kind of bro nod and then you know take off and start looking so what was that it's fine uh oh um uh roger's gonna find us a uh a way down well it's not as good as uh zozo can oh yeah oh he when he does his like his cough thing and yeah like he's gargling on salt water and mint yeah minty salt water yeah but uh yeah I can't climb down there so hopefully roger can figure it out it's gonna take like 15 minutes but roger is going to return eventually um and he's gonna like kind of like motion this way tell you it's over here and he's found a he's found a way down that does lead about you know most of the way through the cavern but there's like a 50-foot drop left and it's still kind of like careful watch your step because you don't it kind of slides in a bit and the last thing you want to do is slip and then just because even a 50-foot drop is not is no bueno yeah you're killing me oh yeah if you fall yeah so that's fine because if we can get 50 feet from the bottom there's two things that i can do use healing word which is a 60-foot spell and have my 50-foot rope uh anchored nicely well i did say it tick it takes 15 minutes um zozo could you do me give me a perception check oh yeah oh no oh my god 23 that is a crit and that is far more perceptive than you have any right being under the circumstances but i got dark vision that's why and a concussion oh yeah i'm seeing things so um zozo's like there's there's probably a moment there's there's light coming in from up top but not much and it is definitely far off so like you trying to scream there's it's probably like hurting your chest it's like oh god like that that type of thing and you are going to eventually like crane your head around and there is a massive dragon sitting stock still but like overhanging both you and criv and you're gonna like like just freeze but out of the corner of your eye you're going to see a second massive dragon hanging over both you and criv stock still seconds are going to go by in a few more seconds and you realize those two dragons have been very still for very long and you're gonna look and see that both dragons are attached to these large pedestals and are are now that you really get a good look at them clearly statues and there is a huge set of double doors in between them built into the rock with a huge chain and lock and there's all kinds of inscriptions on the wall and stuff like that but you have stumbled into something very interesting what's what's also interesting about these two um these two dragons is they are clearly black dragons female black dragons i'm home do they have boobies are they the same are they are they sisters um they are different they're they're both female black dragons but they're different hello um takes notes of note of this he kind of like internally he's like delighted he's like he's even like not sure if he's hallucinating this but then he'll crane his head over to the other side and see like try to find criv yeah crives very much unconscious and very much laying in a heap just like i mean you you are too with three hit points it's just like you are conscious that is the best you can say about your yeah he'll call out to him like crib you alive can i get a death saving throw for criv please oh shit um how does one do that in here uh it's the front page of your character sheet if you go to that other attributes uh yeah and so it's it's it's right on the front page of your character sheet about halfway down in the middle says death saves yeah you don't need a death save because your positive number of hit points okay i'll fix that hold on done boom you're good yeah wow tell you when you need a death table whoo okay 15 good that's good um so the most you'll get at him is like like he's breathing so that's good nice come on criv we gotta we got a mission to do uh he's just trying to crawl on the ground and go like check on him am i seriously injured let's see i i hate to do this because it's like you know but yeah we gotta roll to see if you are seriously injured because holy shit that was a big fall it really was i like in the book i think it's anything over 20 feet like you gotta make sure that you aren't you know and that clears it it does it does meet that at least yes umpty dumpty is like these guys oh let's see medicine here we go broken bones whether you landed poorly after a jump that's true that kind of check mark number two okay i need i need a d6 on a one or two you're gonna suffer an injury here okay here we go yeah hey so nothing's broken i'm gonna need that from criv too if he lives so we're gonna we're gonna come back to that don't worry stay stay dead so you don't get injured that's a friend there um i i i feel like uh zozo's got the body type that like it's like oh man you you should have fallen apart but there's something that kind of makes sense about you like not getting injured like you're you're hunched over enough or there's something um but yeah you will be able to stand up and stuff like that you're again you probably some internal bleeding something but nothing broke that's good uh okay he'll keep like crawling like come on grave get up uh and if i can reach him i'll like i'll try to assess him and if i can like put him on his back or like crack his neck like a chiropractor or something uh medicine check try to stabilize him yeah you want to jerk the neck around a lot that's i mean that's what it's what we we do on uh atheus that's how it goes there uh yeah give me a medicine check at least hopefully stabilize him yeah so you will stabilize him so he's not gonna bleed well he's not yeah he's not gonna bleed externally anymore yeah yeah yeah just kind of put a finger in the hole it's like there you go you're good uh meanwhile you got you got uh you got omo and clover and you guys are going to get down to the point where it's just a 50 foot drop and you kind of like peer peer down and like see the two of them and and they're they're a real good distance away it's 50 feet is fucking scary but still it's it's a lot better than 160. yeah uh did uh did he give you any of his uh pitons the spiky things no it also doesn't let me touch any of his things yeah me either um yeah uh it also broke his fall with those i landed on these metal spikes it's great is there anything here that looks like i could tie a rope to it there's like any outcroppings that i it look yes will they hold your weight ah maybe zozos but not that probably not almo i got a big hammer you can hammer it hammer it down real good oh you don't have the pitons it's true that's exactly it got a roger roger okay so clover um i can hold the rope and just kind of like lay down and kind of wrap it around me and lay down and you could climb down and get a piton then you can come back up and then we'll hammer the piton into the ground and then we'll both climb down and heal them up and help them up so that's a good idea that was really long that's a long plan okay uh what do i do okay that's where your plan falls apart so so i'm gonna all right hold on um 50 feet down at the bottom you said right no uh maybe but no um uh he looks down are they right at the bottom here of the right from where we're at oh uh they're more in the center of this but but again remember it's not it's it's it's not that big at the bottom so it's like a 12-foot gap in between so they're like 50 feet down and maybe six feet away from you okay so i i'm not good enough at the right kind of math i would need to do to know if they're 60 feet away from me or not they're not okay um what if i'm laying down no um okay so i'm gonna wrap the rope around me a little bit or hold on to it and lay down and you climb down the rope and no more steps i got that one yeah and you get the pitons from zozo and bring them back up okay you climb down rope get pitons get to me okay okay yeah climb down rope got it okay all right hold on oh yeah you have to hold it yeah so give me a strength save and it doesn't have to be a lot as as long as it's 12 or higher you're fine you want omo to give you a strength save got it that's it yeah it's a layup thank you bless you thank you thank you oh my god yes strong boy yeah you throw clover down and then like pull up at the last minute and just gwen stacy the shit out of it and just like yeah yeah sorry but it's so much faster mandy um um so uh you know clover's gonna get down there going to walk over to zozo reach into his bag grab a single piton what and just be like so so is this it and it's holding up like this is holding no that this one is holding my spine together this one wait yeah take this one okay oh god it's like okay wait you're not dead right no of course not you think 160 feet drop would kill me it's just like he's got blood dripping out of his mouth okay and then just be like i'll be back i omo what do i do again come here okay got it got it yeah it's like i need this this sounds this sounds tedious uh uh mandy i need you to give me an athletics check please oh doesn't have to be high hey 11. oh 11 okay it is slow and sloppy uh but eventually clover does get back up to you and then i don't i'm better with with other things that aren't so steep oh almost pull me okay come here all right i got you you're doing great d yes can i get a flat d20 from you please oh yeah we need to see what skill you're good at today oh it could be my leader spelunking yeah would that be amazing wouldn't that be amazing well it's not that uh but you know it could be something else i don't know you don't know crevasse detection nature oh well you know can i get a d10 we'll see what kind of nature three are we back in marine biology again no no no no not this time we move on to the next bit you are an expert on bears yeah a bear expert their bones are made of like the heaviest material and so they have like their own gravity and everything like when they get big enough it's crazy yeah they're made of unobtainium okay just like and then bring raise the pitons like i don't have to claim that back again do i that was that was hard well okay so i like stairs um i don't have time to make stairs i'm sorry okay but it's okay i'm gonna hammer this in real good and then roger will protect you thank you roger thank you thank you thank you thank you so let's say this is hammered in omo makes his way down um clover's totally welcome to go back down uh omo gets to the bottom of this and there is an unconscious crib and a nearly unconscious zoso and a big fucking door and two dragon statues well i think the first thing he does is he doesn't see this door at first well does he see the door is it obvious to anyone that's yes half unconscious and bleeding okay very yeah it sticks out oh man boy did you guys find something good have you had a chance to check it out yet oh not yet i'm just about to okay hey uh hey criv uh you're doing okay you can get up now and uh that's the healing word that you'll use on crib technically these were all words yep that's exactly right and crib gets only one of them is healing though that many whoo three hey just as many as so so now three buddies go let's fight on the on the ground just immediately unconscious um i would i would happily use another one on uh zozo but that would be my last first level spell uh he puts a hand up save it oh you sure and he like tries to step back up oh on like dislodges the last piton yeah on his side oh much better oh that was really in there yeah yeah so it's like anyone over 40 waking up in the morning yeah so cray cray like cough oh go ahead go ahead well i just need a d6 from you to see if something's broken yeah uh just as long as you don't roll a one or two you're fine well no in my luck it's two five see it's what you do it changes today that was your last roll now it's all good rolls it's either that or i have to call a bad roll or bathroom dare it yeah triple dog deer cousin did you see these doors and she's like slowly going down it's like roger can i step here like what and then oh wait does this have stairs in there can is that a better way out because i don't there's a big chain like right in front of the doors keeping them closed so i don't know oh okay and so she's she goes hustles back down just like okay all right and then comes back really good oh look he's awake yeah and pat pat pat the fuck happened oh you fell in a huge ravine here yeah oh yeah you just went straight down you kind of were like banished it was kind of like magic are you super magic did you teleport of course i'm magic no i didn't teleport i fell down a hole oh you shouldn't do that no yeah okay i would always get pushed down holes and it would really hurt and i would break like a lot of bones and then mama would have to take care of me and then i'd go how are you doing uh i can't keep going in fact i need you three to see something and he points behind himself uh is one of those two not pointing not at himself he's pointing at the door with the dragon statues i have to look at something look at me uh is one of those two statues like can you can you tell if it's aruthammar or not or like two like just like dragons we don't know about like one of them know enough about arithmar to know what she looks like physically like as a statue yes one of them okay okay clearly aruthammar you all know that here's the thing when i came here to elara all i knew was stories of gael thorn the last black dragon and then suddenly this one appears aruthammar this is the first i hear of another black dragon but this one doesn't have boopies well in there of these do this the this one is my oc don't do not steal you got it big boy do not steal um you've stolen my heart okay go go back go back go back love you is that a me in your pocket or are you just happy to see me no this is i'm very happy to see you i almost died okay but i don't know what this place is this isn't i don't assume this is uh strahd's cave where aruthammar is right now this is something else something locked something built i don't think dragons built these themselves let's open it up well if anything it might have a staircase that's leading us out of here oh i like this plan okay well well um did you say there was something written across the front of it because i thought i heard you say that oh there's all kinds of writing yeah can we read any of it oh well real quick before that crib is just kind of sitting down listening to this like all he did so far was just kind of sit up um with probably like supporting himself with one hand kind of his hand on his his gut or his leg just some one part of his body that's hurting the most um and then he's going to try to stand up using one of like the rocks that tumble down with them as as the momentum he's going to put his hand on zo-zo's back and lay on hands pull the entire 20 to get him up i need you in fighting condition um as much as the meta gamer in me would say like no let's just take a long rest like i just i don't think that's feasible in a hole oh it's a big hole yeah but still like you wouldn't do that oh what here's the thing i i have had people take long rests in weirder more dire spots but like yeah i i totally agree with you like until you get a handle on things and stuff so let's do that let's pop some hit die yeah all right and i agree like so so would advocate for just let's go let's go like not only is this super interesting but we got the other place to go to so like let's there's no time to lose so here's here's the uh the big question uh-huh how do i roll a hit die wow no i know it's in my document that i haven't written yet ah i think i've actually ever rolled the hit so it's the easiest thing in the world go uh up on uh the the opening of your character sheet there right in the middle all the way up top you'll see hit points hit die armor class so uh you're gonna click on s rest and it's gonna ask you like oh you wanna you know pop that and everything uh and obviously if you hit long rest it resets everything and yeah it's all automated baby so we're rolling some hit die oh zozo well that yeah uh three uh and a two so far for sozo okay close enough to max i'll stop here okay okay and crib three and eleven and two one more oh another three yeah let's do one more there we go i'm one away i've used six so a three eleven a three and six and forgive me i turned into a pilot there for a second just the pilot demographic of our show is gonna be pissed yeah i don't know they made love like oh yeah thank you thank you for the representation uh mandy you're level five yeah i got a that's right you did it's been so long you did oh you did leveled up in between sessions that's true uh but you're at full health anyway so you're fine i am you are so we've had a chance an hour let's say and eventually roger's gonna make it down here and uh you're gonna see that roger found a way down here that did not involve falling whatsoever so the cool thing is if you wanted to leave right now you could roger found a way good boy what a good boy but i don't think that's in the cards no you can take some chalk we can mark the path yeah come back to it later i mean yeah like it's some of you speak of inferno like you know he'll be he's not a good buds um just because like crib healed him uh last time just before the short rest as is a kind of like he felt better already so resting kind of like takes half an hour to do it and then the other half hour he gets like impatient a little bit starts pacing around and he starts checking out the door and like oh there were inscriptions and stuff and he just like starts looking at it yeah doesn't do anything but like he's already there yeah just touch it a little you know just yeah so give me an investigation i see a raise the hand yeah real quick guys um is anybody missing any hit points still like two but like i'm taking that one that's voluntary we can have used song of rest that's a thing that i have oh yeah and that'll get you an extra d6 well this is very important what's your song of rest oh my god i planned for everything but that um bodies at the floor or something oh how yeah are you telling an alternative story as far as what it could have been um you know what we're uh it should not be restful but he's playing helter skelter and for some reason that makes everyone happy yeah and you know what thanks to that i'm full health now hey that may or may not come in handy we don't know i can picture like this little group of dragonborn this really cramped area super dark and there's just uh omo with his guitar just like playing this little riff from the echoes yeah this creepy cavern it's you could tell this cavern used to be larger um like it looks like there's been a couple of cave-ins or something like that maybe maybe even purposeful because like these doors were uh like there's they're probably sealed for a reason they're probably so if you're checking this thing out um yeah they're yeah give me an investigation oh perfect oh man so we'll take that crit one um i imagine sojourn's staring it's like just that yeah but for a rip that that was the back half hour just yeah looking at one specific spot uh what the the common stuff that you will see without uh peeking into this too much is uh while there are very large uh very large knockers on the door not breasts like like you know like just a beautiful rack on this door i want it noted that mandy was the first one so i was like knockers i was like really where oh god damn it uh statue i was gonna say yeah yeah so it's like little uh uh compass getting jealous or what are we talking about yeah so there are there are two uh identical uh black dragon statues on either side um this this does not look like the depictions of ruthom are that you've seen uh so there are these two very large handles like it like you could reach up and grab the ring of it and like pull back and it looks like that's how you might open the door however uh you're gonna see that there is a a big bolt in the center keeping the door shut uh but all that is very common stuff you could see at a glance so so the bolt the bolt is on the outside of the door yeah like it's um uh picture there's uh it almost looks like you should be able to slide it but this was a fixed to stay there forever it doesn't look like there's a way to uh slide it or open it it is like welded to the door so so omo is going to say to uh i i guess uh zozo since he's the one that's kind of examining it it's like it looks like they're trying really hard to keep something in good good observation omo i didn't even notice but that's very interesting yeah you want to know what's in there just as much as i do no but let's find out anyway okay can we all hear this or yeah yeah it's a tight spot like i would you'd have to be really trying to keep it secret hey how many wishes do you have left oh three if this thing is hard to remove we could just wish we could i'm not against the use of a wish for that no i mean especially if we don't use it in time you die so we need to use something well uh let's see if we can figure out how to get this off and um i mean i've got all these hammers let's see if i can find a way to knock this off real quick and we'll see about getting in okay we're gonna make all those noirs do all that noirs if we're gonna make all this uh this noise do we just want to i can't stop thinking about noirs i love those noirs yeah yeah and you domino's last thought we're gonna keep making all this noise do we just want to use the nogger and see if we hear anything on the other side that's a good idea that's why you're in charge um this is xavier speaking though but i know i rolled a one so so does not notice but was there some uh inscriptions on the door last time there were maybe someone else notices them well i mean you notice the inscriptions uh they they are in a different language for the most part okay i don't know mandana you guys speak draconic oh well come on i think that's the one thing i didn't pick i think you you come with it any of you spanish guys speak spanish like just like so the odds are heavily that's so like okay um not written in common but uh you're you're going to this this how can i put this to a fluent speaking uh draconic person or someone who speaks draconic or is very immersed in the language this is really well written for someone's second language but not perfect you know um so there's going to be like a couple of like the syntax things like they're just not going to be quite right so that's gonna it's gonna it's like okay so someone draconic probably didn't write this but like they're just real big fans of the culture you know uh but uh something that keeps coming up is um the cult of the black wing so like it keeps coming up and it's it's a bunch of it's not a story but the it kind of comes off as a bunch of warnings uh that's what it comes off as like do not open the you know um phrases like more than what we bargained for and turned on us and you know what i mean like it's just like there's a reason the word cult is being used almost like what they're saying is past tense if that makes sense so is it that the there was a cult inside that's too much for what they found or was it even too much for the cult and the cult is saying no we've turned back that's that's where the syntax stuff is is is kind of it's like the old twilight zone to serve man it's like it's really tough to parse that it's like wait are you saying that the cult was too much or it was too much for the cult like it's it the syntax stuff is making it hard to parse out but um the fact that uh that there are statues dedicated to a specific dragon and like this thing was sealed shut by people obviously uh not creatures like that gives you a couple of it's like okay so we know that at the very least a cult made their base here whether they actually found a dragon or just was really fans of this specific like that's their pin-up poster like that's their you know what i mean it's tough to say but something something went very wrong and they they closed up shop someone closed up shop could we tell like in in right it's going to be extremely rough figures but could we tell about how long ago this door was like put in place like right you can tell the difference between like hey this is a recent recent construction this is a couple years old or this is just old shit right what was clover's talent last time is it bears guessing bears just bears okay so we know definitively bears are not responsible for this like it is guys this thing not a process of elimination she looked at the thing is just like that's not a bear what can confirm no um are you uh i want to look to almo but are any of you like trained in construction like are do any of you have some sort of background i i'd look to ryan but like almo for almost a hammer you know what it's that's true also in my head i'm like oh man are people going to think that i think all spanish people speak spanish i was just saying the odds of that culturally i'm gonna shut up so like yeah yeah no this is not a good way for that to go that's good that you came back to it though now yeah no i want people to know that i'm not ignorant i just it was more of a we got the bit we got the bit yeah okay all right okay i'm ignorant but you're fine um no um uh almo wouldn't have a specialty in construction but he is a uh he does have enough bard where he would know at least a little bit about most stuff okay you were a metal worker apprentice at one point right that's what's what's that your metal worker he is a metal worker um he works in metals he's not the best at it but uh he does have enough bar levels where he can you know half history half insight half whatever well we're dealing with something that's been welded shut so what what what i was saying is uh should i give you advantage and it sounds like yes sounds like i should give you advantage yeah okay give me give me an investigate with advantage yeah investigation uh oh we'll drop a 13 take a 17 18 total uh yeah you don't notice anything no uh you you uh this looks like right off the bat um uh some of this metal looks worn down like maybe either you aren't the first people to find this and like someone trying to chip away or this is just it's really weathered and like something about like the moisture from the cave or something like that has been so a bit of this looks a little rusted and if you had to put a time frame on it you'd say that this could be as old as like 1200 years like if you were to put like you're like this is oh man this was this is like a big iron thing and it's built the last but like it has seen better days but first of all these are some amazing puddle welds right i can't even believe that they got these to these are good like nor like there'd be some kind of air bubbles some kind of cracking for something that looks as old as this these are phenomenal it's definitely a union guy like this guy showed up like he knew what he was doing this this guy went through his apprenticeship and was like top of his class it's clearly this this guy's but people have been messing with this you can look at it right here it got whacked here got whacked here it just got enough of a crack that moisture has been getting in here it's starting to look weak this is all in almo's voice right yeah can i say can i say that i love almo's subtle shift to utter confidence and what he's talking about with this one thing it's like oh there's your problem like just right off the bat it's like oh shit like you know you are competent with something that's uh okay okay oh i mean it's it's metal work i trained in this i'm not the best at making things some some things i'm oh man i can make a good hammer but uh you know it's we this is what i trained for okay what is a door if not several hammers glued together that's right wrong long narrow hammers yeah well here's what i'm good at or what i have experience with cults worship dragons who bit off more than they could chew and ended up running with their tail stuck between their legs that's really jumping to the occasion and benefiting from it and he kind of like makes his katana appear in his hand there are very very few black dragons left in this world if there is another one locked in here that is so powerful you have to let it out oh i see no flaw in your logic um ryan sees so many flaws in that you see depending on where what their goals are yes but that's a big if i mean we're talking about potentially the dragon that was sealed into this mountain 1200 years ago that if there's not another exit has been trapped here the whole time with no food and i'm afraid to say that probably means if we try to break it out he's going to be starving or dead whoa hey now maybe just being realistic no yeah that's a good point but he might be starving and can you imagine like if there's just like little cracks that like little rats get in there too it's like how hungry would a black dragon be that's only getting little rats put that in your dump date kids well um oh we get a dump date i gotta make a new graphic and he just gets too dark okay so it seems like either way we're gonna want to try to get inside so do you think this is something that we can open or are we gonna have to use more magical means um well um based on that role do i think that we could finish knocking that bar out i mean you could wreck this like it like depending it might take a little time but this that like a well-placed thwack like you know the weak spots so i mean i guess the other thing right is that we're not necessarily in a hurry we're not trying to get it done in one swing we can dedicate 30 minutes or so to trying to get it open it's true that's true i mean if you're trying to be quiet sure if there's something in there that could be hungry no maybe we lose a wish we gotta open the door silently i don't know so the simple answer is uh give me a little bit of room and if you're not afraid of me making some noise sure before you do that open the gate yeah let's hit the knocker keep a listen out you know you make sure you grab it zozo opens is a ruth marr thing i'll stand by waiting your order everybody watching this stream i want you to go back to the beginning of ryan's sentence and watch mandy poke her head up like a groundhog when the word knocker is spoken again just do it like it's like i will like just it is exactly like that it is amazing like her survival depended on it and i appreciate that i've never felt closer to mandy that being said i i didn't hear anything you said ryan yeah once the word knocker hit i think yeah no crib's gonna go over right he's gonna tell everyone to keep keep an ear out he's gonna put both hands out grab the knocker mm-hmm and then he's gonna give it up give it a little thwack okay mom he's still doing it could you uh roll to bang the knocker please no uh how how much force are you putting in on this like how much like are you trying to kind of keep it a little muffled like you're are you just so where crib's mindset is that right is that it almost getting ready to take his hammer and start trying to just beat the crap out of this door right try to get it unlocked so there's no reason to try to be muffled with it i would rather have a really loud knock or two knocks with the gate still secured and listen to hear something and if we hear a big growl or something then that then we have another conversation to make i like uh crib's restraint if i had it it definitely would have been more of a clang clang clang clang clang clang uh give it a knock then let's do it so uh you're just you're just lifting back on this kind of letting it go and yep i don't know what noise you're expecting probably like a big uh almost like a bell like have a big metallic kind of metal on metal sound and it's it's more of like a it's like two dumpsters colliding with each other kind of like a big metal like you know and uh there's going to be bits of uh flaky rust that's going to come off of this like especially around where things have been tampered with before uh so there's even a a decent size like chip out of what so a good thwack or two with a hammer will definitely take that out but you're also going to hear a bunch of stuff on both sides of the door kind of like just kind of like flake away um and something that is going to fall away that you did not notice uh before um is there is a kind of a panel that's been welded over like intense flame magic or something like that like they like almost boarded up a large specific bit of writing oh so something's been censored here basically okay well let's read what was redacted ready please sure uh you gotta pry that thing off yeah i mean well the first thing right is like let's wait for the dust to settle yeah see if we hear any you know nothing on the other side of the door growling or anything right so i mean no nothing from that then it's kind of like look over at omo and then kind of look over at this hunk of metal and then just kind of like a head nod to like all right let's let's pull this off i like the boing yeah it was rubber metal did i not mention but you'd be surprised that the noises that metals will make when you work with the hammer i'm not an expert so i kind of am uh so you're gonna have to kind of like get under this thing and like hammer it but it is going to come off because again this is kind of like this was a little bit more haphazardly done uh whereas obviously the bolt keeping the door shut was the focus um and in big draconic lettering like there is like they picked a big kind of glorious font basically like there's a lot of like embellishment and stuff um and it just says kaisoth like huge like this thing is like written here and that that sounds like a dragon name if ever there was a dragon name kaisoth i don't know anything about history so i i created would turn to the rest of the group does anyone know anything about kaisoth i don't know anything about elara and its dragons but i'm willing to learn this is a job interview if you teach me mrs robinson oh boy all right um there's always the chance that i picked up a story yeah um this would be a long shot but you know what bro for story yeah you're the best shot that we have i will click the history button let's do it um all right uh i'm gonna put a medium-sized amount of plus ones on this one just because i think it'd be interesting is that okay how about how about we take five of them and say you can roll with advantage oh all right economy yeah see there you go that's a hotel we just made board game references with these oh well let's drop that two and take a 17 so that's a total of 18 again uh so obviously stories uh get handed down and it's a game of telephone and especially one that's at least 1200 some odd years old at the very least um there's a lot of fireside or or barstool side dragon history that gets tossed around because these days in elara there's only you know there's a a handful of what you'd call great dragons right full you know fully grown uh like ancient fully developed dragons um and you can count those on one hand and there could be more out there but like sometimes they slumber for centuries sometimes they're you know and a hell of a lot of them have either been hunted to extinction or just uh you know harassed enough that they you know they try to fly out of reach uh and beyond the development of the the new black and red napalm dragons that showed up a few years back uh they're still super young they're they're just beyond whelp basically uh so stories of a time where there were more big dragons of course that's a that's a huge topic of discussion um black dragons specifically are interesting because while there were tons of male dragons uh male black dragons that uh were look a little more like uh salinanders basically like huge you know winged but didn't really fly all that much and thus uh they were a bit on the smaller side and they were hunted to extinction uh knights back in the day used to prove themselves by you know hunting them down and and you know female black dragons are a lot harder because they're uh they live longer they get much larger and thus um they eventually have to fight each other for some sort of dominance to claim bits of territory like old wrestling days like it's like okay i get the northeast you come up here i will fuck you up that type of thing so there's a legend of a dragon that went total vince mcmahon that just said fuck this territory shit i am going to is this relatable to everybody i am going to i think i'm following you i'm gonna gobble up this whole continent and then maybe i'll expand after that and that went surprisingly well for a long time until uh this dragon made enough enemies that that became a problem what happened after that it gets real fuzzy you get different details it's like oh well you know uh man and dragon had to unite to get rid of it that type of thing or you get a banding together of all colors of dragons to get rid of this one massive black dragon and then you get some that just say yeah they disappeared uh after a while and then you know so like no one has a clear idea of what happened but like those beginning quote unquote facts are kind of regurgitated the same way over and over again are any of those legends say that aruthimar was part of uh putting uh uh kaisoth away well aruthimar's name gets tossed in there because that is one of the only living ancient dragons but being one of the last like strahd and aruthimar and you kind of get forest gumped into situations where it's like yeah i totally hung out with president kennedy totally you know what i mean like to kind of insert them in things so it is a strong possibility it's a very strong possibility just because of the age of aruthimar and like that yeah it's like well i can't imagine she just did nothing like she probably was involved how much you don't know though well he he does his best to info dump as much of that to you guys as he can saying that there's almost certainly some legend getting mixed in with others you've probably heard parts of this but they attributed it to other dragons and that was wrong um but basically uh kaisoth tried to take over everything and nobody's super entirely sure why that stopped they think it was for those reasons that jason told you that he'd absolutely tell you everything do it word for word let's go okay all right okay guys so here's the thing about kaisoth right i was joking you do not have to do this and i know i love dedication to a bit and i know you'll keep going oh yeah 100 but we only have so much time so as you go in and like you tell all this lore and stories and possible truths myths etc right you start to see like kriv is already kind of sitting down like licking his wounds during this entire thing like as you start to do this right and you can start to see on his face like he's having second thoughts right because like if the legend's true if this if this being is still alive and it's just world domination they've been trapped here for how many hundreds of years they're not going to be happy and we could be setting loose a calamity of could be but these are all stories heard around a mug of ale we might actually learn what happened and this could be great for your nation as well yeah if there if you want to strike a bargain with an all-powerful dragon yeah you know we have a ruthenmar which we will get to don't get me wrong but we could have two elder black dragons this world lacks dragons and we have two that we could free and if it goes wrong well we have a ruthenmar to revisit her her battles of the past and take guys off down again i haven't had my blood pumping this fast in a long long time this is why i came here if you want to leave and go to a ruthenmar i'll join with you guys but i'm staying here i want to know what's hiding in there don't you worship a ruthenmar i do what if maybe i'll worship too i came here in the hopes of resurrecting kael thorn the only black dragon i knew existed turned out the plan with the guys had was bad but in the middle of all of it who shows up in the sky blackening the continent with her wingspan it was a ruthenmar and now who shows up at our doorstep or who whose doorstep do we show up to kaisoth this yes this is a coincidence but it's i mean i'm taking i've i decide to make meaning out of this coincidence and fair enough fair enough but if this ends up letting loose a black dragon that is going to terrorize the rest of the continent it's on you sure i'll take i'll take the blame okay roger's gonna move over to the uh the the big piece of flat metal that was kind of welded over the uh over the name and just kind of like stare at it for a bit and stare up at where the name is and stare down just kind of like no just everyone looks at zozo i imagine yeah yeah was that bud what was that uh he said that's another victim of cancel culture turns out roger's got a personality he's got some hot takes like we're gonna uh oh we're gonna get to know him uh oh you can't have heroes we're about to have to abandon a goat guys maybe he can be saved you know let's see what he means by that like let's say you know all right so what do you yeah i'm asking you roger like what do you know what do you know about kazov how old are you that's the question dude i have always been he doesn't even talk in the fertile anymore no i'm done with this charade yeah i'm the one your pact is bound to um how many of those questions do you ask all of them all of them okay nato of questions um so just kind of spitting spitting stuff is like i mean i'm three and go years but i know a thing or two about somebody getting too powerful and they get shut down i used to belong to former mcgregor and his farm got too big and then they diversified because they couldn't handle his agriculture skills and then i got sold to a lesser farmer okay okay so that was just an opinion it wasn't you didn't have more yeah bro it's all opinions okay like it's all you know dude you're entitled your opinions yeah no you should listen to my podcast like i'll i mean like i i really get into the truth like the nitty-gritty like you like especially a long list yeah especially like the 4h agriculture see oh man like you'll see oh boy but it's all rogers like you could tell he's getting into it like he's you know i'll tell the gang no don't worry i'll tell him okay ask him what a podcast is make sure and hit that subscribe button i mean it really helps more than you know oh i used to like roger i know you haven't listened to the podcast yet maybe it's like you know we don't know that's true it's good to expose yourself to different point of view exactly also by goat force you gotta buy goat force you gotta support the brand like that's very important so what's roger's last name or is roger even his real name i mean that was that was his slave name i was assigned to him like he didn't you know that's not his goat name roger what would you like to be called it's roger in the credits it's right yeah you're gonna be credited roger's fine it's yeah let's stick with roger i feel like if i go any more into this pit we're just gonna lose subscribers chad right look maybe uh you know you guys can learn from each other this is a teachable moment like it's you know he doesn't have many dragonborn friends like you know that's true that's true all right so while that's going on crib's just gonna go like he's gonna move back he's just gonna like all right oh well go ahead and knock it down and um let's get some torches ready you're okay and i start swinging can i get an athletics check and if you want to pop a few more points you do it with advantage he wants some time he wants you to spend them all what no i want you to get the most mileage how embarrassing would it be to swing and roll a two hey as long as right we have this role that if you get a crit one that you miss and you do like a little whirlwind to twirl that'd be so cute you know what now now not only do i not have to roll with not advantage i have to hope i get a one so thank you for that wait if i take disadvantage do i gain five points no no let's just move on i'm just how about if you roll with advantage but also roll a one ah never mind see that's an 11 that's two ones uh it's fine like you it's a solid thwack yeah let's say let's say it takes like two or three swings but that third one is like and half of it's just going to that that that that uh that welded bit holding the metal bar is just going to give and it the weight of it's just gonna just kind of like crash down so there is now nothing but the weight of the door holding the door shut uh omo just sits there and kind of like rolls his shoulder for a second there looking like he's like feeling himself a little bit good job cousin good job glad to help guys all right let me show you how we open doors and he goes and he goes to try to open it as fast as he can you push it after the hard work's been done um yeah is it a push or a pull it's a pole i love the image of like stand back guys it's like no you gotta pull the knocker back and like it opens that way i know that you've conditioned me that anytime you say knocker i look to see if i know i gotta the with the big ring the the you know whatever's not filthy the big ring everything's big ring everything's right on the big knocker okay uh i try to pull the door open uh it can i get an athletics check from you yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah maybe a team sport we'll see oh yeah god damn 23 23 is pretty good acrobatics that is true uh it's acrobatics my my my athletics is a plus four so it would be 22 okay that's good i could reroll no that's cruel uh it's just a very flamboyant run up to get to the door uh so you're it's gonna be one of those things where like you have to lean back so much but like eventually it's kind of like lurch and then start to slide out everybody do me if ever give me a perception check baby yeah that's spelunk you're really strong so so i'm motivated all right let's see we got omo with an eight so it's over the 21 look at the hot hand motivated uh crib the 13 clover with a 13 so there is a blast uh like a blast of stale air coming out of this like it's almost it was almost vacuum sealed is what it sounded like just kind of like that type of thing and it's this musty kind of dank like there's something about that that new dungeon smell right it gets so distinctive because like so many of the same things it's like oh this smells like old rusty shit and it smells like death and it smells like darkness and i'm lost that's you know what i mean like that that that basic flavor so that's gonna hit you and you're also hearing a bunch of stuff fall uh like as he's pulling uh this out um and at first it's like oh that's that's like all that rusty shit getting pulled off and everything but uh when you when you kind of look at the gap you're gonna notice some uh some skeletal remains here uh these are definitely if you had to call it i mean you're no anthropologist but uh you you'd say that these are um probably like uh human uh maybe maybe elven but like you know like at best half elf um these these guys were like uh average like 5 8 5 9 something like that but there's some very interesting things on the other side of this door uh there's rubbings like when you pull this open you're gonna notice on on the inside of the door that you you you've pulled up and there's hundreds and hundreds of scratch marks and then you're gonna notice where um uh the the the the indent the grain of it gets a little deeper and a little deeper and if you look at these hands the fingers are worn down to the second knuckle meaning either they were completely insane or desperate or whatever but they clawed until they wore away bone before they died as hardcore so if ever there was a buyer beware sticker on a dungeon yeah and there are if you if you had to count that the bones have pretty much fallen like you're going by tattered old clothing and stuff like that but it's probably like six seven people here or the remains of you know nothing like we could identify on those clothes or some sort of they are they've almost evaporated away like they're so ancient i mean if if i had a guess somebody had to had to uh hold the dragon in place or distract them long enough for them to uh seal the door that's that'd be my guess who they are well i am they were brave good he looks at one of the skeletons good good good job you did it and he kind of like kind of gets a little more cautious but yeah he he he he stops being like the confident and just like walking in he's now he's taking in the environment and like okay maybe maybe we're gonna get in trouble at some point so more cautious his blade forward and he gets lower in his like more lizard position hold on let me let me let me wedge this door open really good uh just i don't like the idea of uh of of my fingers being worn down to here so i'm just gonna i'm just gonna find a i mean we're gonna get this boulder right over here i probably could use to just kind of wedge right underneath the door okay you can also tell roger to keep an eye out i don't trust him anymore no i didn't man see that's the problem guy shares one opinion and all of a sudden the image you have i didn't share anything you said well while zozo was opening the door i checked out his podcast not a fan so which one did you listen to because there's like you got it like he's going to give you one to listen to you can't just pick one off it was that interview two weeks ago oh don't listen to that one no that was rough in his in his defense at the time interviewing the dillbert guy seemed like a good idea before all that stuff came out like it you know that information was out there he just wanted to talk about the upn show that's it that's all he wanted to do like it the poor guy like he just you know that's a coincidence we'll get to it it's fun uh yeah roger you stay here um you stay here yeah i wouldn't want you do you look like you're some sort of offering yet so stay here keep an eye out i gotta tell you keep an eye out so before we move in and crives like looking at everyone we move slow we don't touch anything yeah and he's like listing it out and then as soon as he says we don't touch anything his head like slowly moves over the clover clover was already probably touching the wall every like oh oh oh oh gosh oh look i've never been in a cave this big before almost wow in her defense it's very tactile like there's a lot of sensations it could be but it could also kill you hey you fit your whole hand inside that one finger groove wow as you guys walk like if eventually you guys are walking in and it is not just the so there's a scene basically that is set when you walk in if you had any doubt about um what happened here that is immediately chased away from your mind because after you step over the remains of those those bodies you're going to see um a few other things there is scrolling on the wall there's a lot of it looks like uh like mad frantic chiseling and some of that is highlighted with a very uh very faded like a light pinkish pigmentation uh and that is probably blood that has just faded over time and what's interesting about this is that underneath a lot of the mad frantic chiseling there is very organized lettering uh so it looks like maybe at one time this was uh the storytelling walls are a big popular thing where it's like okay this wall is going to depict the story of and then and then it's just carved over that like frantically uh is just like it's it's it's it's written in common it's not even scrolled in draconic whereas the underneath is draconic um it is mad frantic just laments and warnings and it it's it's like the wings enveloped us and like it's it like there's a whole bunch of shit like that and then further down the line it's how could they leave why would they do this like what and it's it's so all over the place that it takes a while to wash in but there's slightly less insane scrawlings that are it's like day 43 like that type of thing where you're it's like oh and if you take a closer look at the skeletal remains some of this is um scraped clean some of the bones are scraped clean and snapped open and the marrow is gone and stuff there's some fucked up stuff that have happened here so by scraped clean does it look like dragon scraped clean or like cannibalism scraped clean like someone took a blade and got every bit of meat off of yeah um just for the like uh theater of the mind uh is this full darkness and we have torches are there light sources in here no lights like this whatever you're so as you're as you're looking around it's it's like everything the light touches is more grim and gruesome and like it's like oh jesus god like as one of you is about to say hey look at this there's four things over here then it's like it's like holy shit like this is the foyer this is the entrance is this the most fucked up shit or the least fucked up shit like it's real it's it's it's not a great first impression i'll say that so as we as we find more stuff griv is going to look back at the group and say okay as soon as one of us leaves we all leave if we for some reason there's something here and we have to leave we have to retreat we all leave look over at sozo okay we can come back after a ruthenmar we can come back with ruthenmar that's not wrong but don't leave too easily don't disappoint me we'll try we'll try omo gives uh clover a look that could best be described as wait i thought disappointing him was like 90 of of what happened but okay it's a very expressive look i think clover is kind of just like not really understanding but getting that like aura of this is bad and it's just kind of huddled by omo like i don't like this and just like no no no longer desire to touch anything because she's like i think this is icky okay so what you should probably distract yourself with um if you're too scared is um uh counting all like the the stuff that they probably just abandoned on the floor as they panicked because they dropped stuff and i bet it's like right over here somewhere and so just like just take an inventory to distract yourself with of whatever they dropped on the floor as we're moving along okay um one of the advice word of it i i overheard that word of advice yeah look where you're going you never know in this kind of place oh yeah whatever you kick might trigger a trap stuff like that i have experience in these in such places whoa trust me let let my keen eyes lead the way okay that sounds like we got a yeah yeah slowly follow you and clover griffs as as our good great leader crips said it's the duty of the strong to protect the weak stay back be careful don't get in my way okay let's say roger does turn out to be the the bad uh the bad impression uh that that that for speaking to him do you think him and zozo would like really hit it up like really get along like they they might like they might have some real like like some alpha male opinions that like maybe a little bit i'm not exactly sure like are they that's the problem you get two alphas in a room and like you know i don't no he's not an alpha he's like he's just got that napoleon complex it's not an alpha that's an alpha i'm sorry xavier that's what an alpha is someone's super insecure about their place in the world where they have a lot of similarities and they're like yeah man i agree i agree and then they start branching off and they're like no man that's fucked up and then they just keep going back and forth yeah probably we would hate each other but not like i don't know we'll have to see i don't know if that's uh we'll have to find out we'll have to find have me on his podcast you know what yeah if it's a you know what if it's a reasonable i don't know yeah yeah yeah it's all an infernal it's just for an hour i just want two people um who is this show for can i ask i i don't know anymore i i started doing stuff and like i don't know um as as the the the the combined torch light is is kind of providing just a little bit of security uh just just kind of it's like okay we're all next to each other we can all we can all see at least a bit and you guys start marching into this place proper i think that's a good time for us to stop for the night and what we're gonna do is oh i look oh i have such sights to show you i can't wait so do we so i mean right this isn't recorded right now we go change shirts we come back and then we go again right yeah well this this was the dress rehearsal yes so all that nonsense about the podcast stuff that will make it in the final of course all that's in but we've stopped recording right now we're gonna go change we're gonna come back we're gonna start oh okay who's who's dm'ing that um i mean that's you right uh take a look at the dnr calendar for me just just real quick i've seen ryan like four times this week i feel like that's true
