Introducing somebody else's YouTube channel. I'm Pasta Grannies. Sorry. I'm not doing this right. You're doing it. Go. That's all I want. I mean, check out Pasta Grannies. It's a great YouTube channel. When last we left our heroes, they were introduced to Captain Victoria LeBlanc, privateer, feared sword of the high seas.

And Tuck's new wife. Yes. So there was a series of events that led up to this. There was a series of events. There was a series of weddings that led up to them being married. Yeah. Yeah. There was a. There was some attempts to ingratiate themselves to LeBlanc and her and her crews after Maggie Sochter won. And that was never really cleared up. Yeah. What their relationship is. What their history is. You don't know yet. Exactly.

But what we do know is that we put on a really sick show with Gail and Cloud Piercer, the Thunderbirds. Exactly. To try to impress her or scare her. And it worked. That's why you guys were on the deck in the first place and why Maggie Sochter won. And after some. Oh, you know. We're just here to help and take us to the north and this and that and the other thing.

Tuck made an offer, which was turn in our friend Ving here, whose bounty is 5000 coins, which is more than enough to get you a new ship in return. Give Maggie Cole back the clear water. And also, please marry me. And if you want, it's stupid or whatever, but I don't care. And Victoria LeBlanc accepted all of those things. Yeah. Tuck thinking it was just.

Another one of his silly, out of control, flirtatious events in which he just trips over himself talking to a woman he's attracted to Maggie, knowing and explaining to Billy and Ving that Tuck was now legally bound to marriage to Victoria LeBlanc. There was a night on the ship. Victoria and Tuck had some wine and cheese. Ving and Billy were also present. Yeah. Not at first. Yeah. That was rude. Because Tuck was. Yeah, that's true. No invite was extended.

Tuck was really spilling the beans to Victoria about your entire adventure. Tip to tails. The whole thing. Yeah. And that's when Billy and Ving popped in and tried to slow things down. Billy grabbed the fanny pack and was like, fucking stop talking about this thing. Maggie interjected, made it clear that she does not like Victoria, but that she was just going to watch all of this crash and burn in front of her before heading over to the clear water with Billy.

And to find Wicker the cat and finding also Eric, a Medjay, who's just kind of been laying low, waiting for orders, basically, like I was told to go on this boat and no one has come to get me. Yeah. I'm just going to wait. I feel bad for the guy. What happened after that? We were talking about what the best way to get to the vault was. And we were like, we should just take the Thunderbirds. This is stupid that we would sail the whole way there. Right.

So you went to Victoria and said, hey, this is what we're going to do. And Victoria was like, no, no, no, no. I'll come with you. We'll sail the boats. It's all fine. And you were like, no, no, no, no. Like, we're just going to go. And she was like, no, no, no. You don't understand. Yeah. I'm not letting you go. Yeah. Billy attempted to charm her. She resisted. And somehow it didn't work. Yeah.

She was able to resist somehow and revealed that, in fact, she would rather kill you all than let you get to the glacial tower before her. There was a fight. She stabbed Tuck. Yeah. Bing tried to stop it with the elemental mastery floorboards. Stabbed Tuck right in the side. Tuck took it and stabbed himself, technically. Yeah. Before pushing her back. And Victoria LeBlanc drew her knife, said that you couldn't get to the glacial tower before her, and her crew drew weapons and charged.

That is where we find ourselves now. What do you do? Okay. I would like to shoot first. If that's okay. Yeah. Absolutely. Sweet. I pick up a bunch of rocks that I have been collecting. Uh-huh. Just out of your pouches. Yeah. So that's plus dexterity? Yeah. For volley, I suppose. So that's seven plus two is nine. On a seven to nine, you choose one. You have to move to get the shot, placing you in danger, as described by the GM.

You take what you can get, which means you deal your damage, but then you reduce it by 1d6 damage. You have to take several. You have to take several shots, reducing your ammo by one. I think in this case, that would mean you use all your rocks to try and hit whoever you're trying to hit. Okay. I'll take several shots. Okay. So you're just going to whip all your rocks at once. Yeah. Who are you throwing them at? Just the guys with all their swords. Oh, just the crew in general? Okay. Great.

So yeah, go ahead and deal your damage. Okay. Which is a d8. One. One. Okay. Oh, wow. So the guy that's really been shit talking you, the guy that sounds like this, just catches one right in the forehead and he's laid out on the ground, but he was the only one you hit. Well, that sucks. Not for him. That's terrible for him. But then the crew, yeah, they're moving forward. Victoria is darting towards. Should I use war cry or what are you waiting for? What are you waiting for?

We'll draw everyone potentially to you. War cry will potentially terrify everybody. I like that. I would say probably with the exception of Victoria, if I'm being honest. War cry. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like, you know, we have a lot of fun here on Spout Lore. But again, we have a lot of fun here. But again, Tuck is a terrifying combatant. He's absolutely enormous.

It would be like an actual grizzly bear chasing you down. Like a T-1000 grizzly bear. Yeah, exactly. So yeah, you can go ahead and what is Warcry going to look like? I have a rape here in my stomach. I have my axe. I am wearing a maroon satin loincloth. Beautiful. Yeah, I forgot. Tuck has a new loincloth that Victoria laid out for him. Oh, you know what Tuck does? Here's what he does. He's really pissed off at Victoria LeBlanc.

Like she fucking stabbed him and like cut his friend and threatened his kid. So he's just like he rips off the fucking satin loincloth that she gave him. Okay. Because he's like… Victoria… This thing is fucking tacky and he throws it to the death. Wow. Uh-huh. And he's like, also… And then he turns to the crew. He's like, her drapes don't match her curtain. Drapes don't match the curtains. The drapes and the curtains are the same thing. All right. Yeah, roll it, I guess. Is this…

Does this count as a Warcry? I honestly don't think so. Why not? Because it's… Because it's not intimidating at all. Are you kidding? A man with like a sword in his stomach who gets absolutely naked. Yeah. Uh-huh. And is like screaming. Yeah. So again… This is stupid. Okay. Just fucking roll it. Yeah. 2d6 plus charisma. 11. 11. Okay. So your enemies act with fear… Or your enemies are afraid of you and act accordingly. Yes. And you get plus one forward against them. Yeah.

Probably mostly because I'm nude and I have a sword in my belly in all honesty. Yeah, definitely. Definitely. So the crew starts running towards you and you rip your loincloth off and start ranting about how you think the loincloth is tacky and you're just bleeding from your gut. You have a huge axe in your hands and they all just kind of stop. But Victoria laughs and she kind of flips the stiletto like the long sharp skinny blade that she has in her hand.

She's flipping it back and forth and she's like, Oh, I don't know my love. I think red is your color. And she swipes out at your chest with her knife. Whoa! That's a cool line. I'm so sorry. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I want to roll a fight with honor real quick. Yeah. She's swinging on tuck. I can maybe block it. Yeah, totally. Great. I got plus con. I got nine. Nine. So what are you trying to do with your… I'm going to block a foe meant for someone else. So you're going to take this hit? Yeah.

Okay. So remember she rolls a D12 and takes the better for damage. So you're going to do that and then take half that. Okay. Yeah. Six. Six. So three damage. Okay. So yeah, she lashes out with the knife and you just step forward. I grab it. I grab the tip of her stiletto. Oh, so it just slices into your hand as you grab the blade. Yeah. And I run my hand down to the tilt and then pop it out. So now I have it like a stabbing thing.

I want to come down with her rapier and try and pin her to the mass that she's standing behind. Ooh, okay. Hack and slash. Oh, I have a fight with honor. Can I use that as my damn might deal my damage to the foe? Oh, absolutely. Yeah. So yeah, you just roll your damage. Which is a D6. Yes. Six. Six. Whoa, boy. Damn. Yeah. So you just grab the blade. Blood is leaking out between your fingers. Yeah. And I say, something old, something new, something red, and something blue. I love it.

You rip it out of your hand. Flip it around. And stab her right in the shoulder. Yeah. And she do like hold onto the blade, like push her down. Into the mast. Into the mast. You're not going to be able to pin her with this. Okay. But like you have pushed her against the mast. Right. And it's at this point that the crew is avoiding Tuck, but charges the rest of you. They're all trying to swarm around Ving. Like they're trying to free their captain. I'm going to defend. Ooh, who are you defending?

Ving. Oh, nice. Yeah. All right. So I take out both my daggers. And I'm going to do the thing, you know, cut at their ankles. Zip, zip, zip. Yeah, totally. Okay. So roll 2d6 plus constitution. Okay. 12. Oh my God. Holy shit. Damn. So you hold three. Yeah. As long as you stand in defense when you or the thing you defend is attacked, you may spend hold one for one to choose an option. Mm-hmm. Redirect an attack from the thing you defend to yourself. Have the attacks damage.

Open up the attacker to an ally, giving them plus one defense. Okay. All right. All right. So you're going to hand them plus one forward or deal damage to the attacker equal to your level. I think I want to deal damage equal to my level. And your level is eight? Yeah. Okay. So with this group of rapscallions, eight damage is fucking huge. Whoa. So you're just like, gah, gah, gah, gah, gah. Yeah. I hit every Achilles heel basically. Oh my God. Yeah. I'm not stabbing. It's just swipes.

So Tuck, you see this crowd like swarm around Ving, and then you see them start falling like wheat. Like it's just like bam, bam, bam. It's like a Thresher is going through. Yeah. He's not getting all of them, but like a good third of them are. Like a Beyblade on the deck of his ship. Yeah. Red or red. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Spinning like a top. Yeah. You see Billy start spinning across the deck, slicing down people. And Victoria is being held against the mast by Ving.

Like Ving's using his body weight and the knife in her shoulder. Mm-hmm. And Ving, Victoria looks you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And she slams you in the eye, and you see them like glitter viciously. And she's like, I always choose the wrong brother. And- What? Whoa! Tuck hears that. And he's like, what the fuck is that supposed to mean? And she is going- she is trying to- she like grabs the wrist that is holding the knife, and she's trying to wrench it out of her and basically get you in a hold.

Okay. Yeah. You feel her leg like wrap around your leg, and like her other arm start coming up around the side.

Trying to yeah get you in some sort of choke hold okay what do you do um I want to uh uh uh I wanted to uh just fists of fury her do it fister thing it takes two seconds and just high fives and then uh yeah you're not getting away from me that easy uh you um yeah the only way you're getting out of this is with this barrister and a dotted line with your signature on it and his too and then I'm gonna fist of fear billy's like pausing from his stuff like what is he saying one of the pirates that's laying on the ground with his achilles tendon slash is like do you guys talk this much during fights normally not really honestly and I'm so sorry about it it's just but it's just you know it's all in a day's work and then while she's uh wrapping around me I want to I'm gonna use elemental form and I'm gonna bring all the water up and behind me and go underneath underneath my skin in between myself and her and create a barrier and I want to build up a um uh weird poseidon like creature and grow myself to um a third bigger than I am okay uh 2d6 plus constitution that's right eight I get to hold and uh yeah a bunch of people on the deck are like swept off their feet as seawater rushes up over the side of the boat and climbs up your body forcing victoria's arm and leg off of you I'm gonna hold like a stockade style thing up yeah totally you can spend one year hold for that that's not something you're just gonna get to do I gotcha I gotcha yeah yeah okay yeah when I when when the water comes up I I use it to lock her into place yeah and she definitely finds a way somehow to make her like this uh something that she is trying to use as a seductive technique where like her wrists are bound above her head and like her hair is wetly hanging in front of her face she's like it seems I am at your disposal and then tuck slugs are in the face okay you don't have to hack and slash she's bound okay you can just deal your damage okay seven so it's just this like thunder crack that's tuck's face pops in and she spits a bunch of blood out and she looks back up and she's smiling like blood in her teeth dude this is turning me on in a weird way oh my god you have no clothes on having steps in front of and as the crew like backs up a little bit you can see billy's still holding two bloody knives on the ground but maggie walks up and like chest kicks a dude to the ground and like pushes people away so now there's a bit of space between you ving is standing there in his moonlit water form of course always moonlit uh holding victoria aloft in this like stockade stockade style wrist manacles of ocean water and moonlight and maggie taking charge for a moment is just like everybody back the fuck up like she's grabbed a sword off the ground and is just like created a gap in the bodies between you guys and the rest of the crew giving you a moment to act what do you do I'd like to use fairy dust uh all the pirates asleep okay fairy dust oh 10 okay that means you get to affect a lot of people and you can make it work for a long time I'm going to do that okay so you just walk up and what um I put like the fairy dust in the water like as the ship bucks up from a wave and tilt all the water starts rushing towards the pirates and billy puts his hands in the water and all the dust like all the magic comes like flowing out and they all fall asleep into their noses and eyes and shit yeah and they all hit the deck and they started going shoe did you put victoria to sleep too no okay so she's just hanging there watching this happen blood in her teeth grinning manically god what is up with you oh can I do another move sorry yeah yeah oh boy can I use lightning a bottle yes what are you trying to do with lightning in a bottle I'm trying to get out from victoria why she wants to get to the tower before us and who the fuck is hired yeah yeah who hired her cool interesting I mean you have to find a way to make it material it could be in her blood that's yeah I was gonna say like I think it's coming out of the blood from her mouth yeah totally okay 12 oh my gosh yes okay so what's it 12 on lightning in a bottle I can hold it indefinitely so the blood pouring out of her it's hitting like the deck of the ship and in that like images are forming so we can all see like who hired her sorry I just pictured it like there's some of the water that's holding up the bottom of the stockade and there's drops of bloods hitting it you know like the blood goes in and makes that swirling swirls into like images and movement oh yeah so it's not even like a picture quality video it's like blood outlines of like images and people and shadow pop it in blood so you see what do you see I ask her what are you going after at the towers it is as it always is people in power wish for more power and use dangerous people to secure it and what's showing up in the blood uh it is uh images of her ship arriving to a bustling port city somewhere in the world it's hard because like you've never been to this place and it's all blood but then like speaking to a person coming down from a throne whoa and handing her a big bag of money basically uh it's like one of those you know like in disney when they're doing like exposition but there's no dialogue and it's all cartoons like it's like really stylized who is that that is the princeps of the far fields principality oh shit I only work for the best and most powerful and you see like very quick images not of victoria's memory but probably things that she has learned of like a bustling seaside city huge palaces incredible machines and steam technology and like fucking automatons walking the streets armies massing and then like an enormous fog bank rolling in with the faces and jaws of slavering beasts emerging from them and rolling across the land what the fuck or like a fire raging across a lake like just like that kind of oh my god so spirit world shit too it's coming in would seem and then you know like there's the classic expositionary images of a mother clutching a child to her chest and screaming as like a fire sweeps by she's losing a lot of blood right yeah she is and then there's like an image of her like fucking one of the princeps it really closes his eyes for that one gross and he's like ugh vingintuck's head's turned to the side the same billy doesn't want to see that stuff so he's like how do you know maggie and then it shows maggie and victoria fucking to town gross being like that is a story for another time I don't want to talk to you anymore all you need to know is that I'm a professional and I always always get the job done uh billy like he's a bit seasick but the images made him yeah totally and the blood in the water diffuses and spreads across the deck all right so let to cap that off we tuck is holding his dick and balls everyone get some clothes just shut something on okay just but let me just cap this off laughing laughing okay so it seems like the the princeps of the fire fields principality are the ones that are fueling war and they're the ones that hired her to go to the vault probably to get something to help with war right so victoria my husband always so smart okay I'm gonna go get my loincloth now oh what a shame uh what a shame laughing tucks walking away holding his dick and balls in his mouth laughing laughing laughing tiny little butt but the least developed part of his body just like genetically doesn't have a huge like fucking king of the hill just like a negative but great so tuck comes back out you're I mean you're in Victoria's Cabin there's a lot of stuff in here you can fucking ransack her if you wanted to yeah I totally piss on her bed alright you come back out later you've pissed on the bed your loincloth is on still have this sword through my stomach just to be clear the pirates only had about five minutes of sleep yeah and that is a thing that Billy just says we gotta you know tick-tock everybody to the clear water yeah okay so the pirates trying to like rustle around yeah what do we want to do with her Ving says and he like stretches her arms further away from her oh yeah so she's like hanging by her two outstretched arms yeah I mean we could just tie her up really quick yeah but she's gonna come after us for sure there's no way we can win like a naval battle against Victoria LaBlanche I can pluck her limbs from her body don't want I don't want to do I don't want to kill her no she's a total psycho but I wouldn't feel okay about that huh she's looking right at you you don't have the bows I don't good neither do you true oh you should use TLC to break the ship in half right or just like cut down the mast like if you were to just walk up and smash the mast yeah so I'm like alright guys I fucking got this I know how to immobilize the ship and then I walk up to the capstone and I like just smash it off the ship so the anchor's gone yeah totally and then I also just walk up to the main mast and I start hacking it alright 2d6 plus strength okay the capstone was easy enough it's a bunch of delicate gears and stuff seven seven okay so you do you hack into it wood splinters there's a great creaking and crashing as the main mast comes down it misses most of the crew shit couple get knocked out smashed the main truck carried off one of the guys legs yeah and I just made Halifax yesterday and it crashes into the water and the seven to nine here is that stretched out by two limbs Victoria looks at you crazy gleam in her eyes blood on her lips and says for that my love I will kill you okay well that sounds super scary things pretty angry right now uh-huh lifts her up really far in there and drops her on the boat and as we're like running uh I mean yeah absolutely thank you I'd like to use that hold okay eleven holy shit boy d10 wait Oh yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes Yeah, do a ton of damage.

Yeah. I lift her up in the air and I just say, you're dumped. You're dumped. You're dumped. You're dumped. And she falls to the deck and slams into the ground. And the crew starts to wake and immediately they all gather around her. Like they're trying to be like, oh my God, Captain. Captain, are you okay? But you have all hopped onto the clear water and started cutting lines. As you're pulling away, you hear, wait for me. I want to go with you. Is it Bruno? It's Bruno.

Bruno's like, put his arm out. You can't sell the boat by yourselves. Tuck leans out. He puts an arm out. He's like, Bruno, jump. He runs and he jumps and he stretches out his arm. And I clasp it. Oh, thank God. I was really scared there for a second. And then Tuck slips. No, no, no, Tuck, don't let me go. And then he's dangling from a rope from the side of the ship. And then they're slamming against the side. He's like. Can somebody pull this up, please? Can someone pull you up? Yes.

And Billy's looking over like, no. Not really. That's a lot of weight. Pass me the boy. I throw Bruno up. Okay. 2d6 plus strength. This is kind of precarious. Nine. Yeah. Catch him. Yeah. Oh, thank you. And he's like, you catch him in your arms. He's got his legs up in his arms wrapped around your neck. My hero. I'm rocking him. Shhh. I'm rocking him back and forth and like, I was so scared around. I was so scared. Vick.

I was afraid I was going to be left on that boat with all this fucking psychos. No, you're on a boat. You're on this boat without these fucking psychos. Oh my God. Thank you so much. And he buries his face in your chest. Yeah. There, there. Big fella. Who's a big bear. You're my big bear. It was so scary, man, but she was so hot, which made it scarier, which made it hotter. To be afraid of her anymore. She can't hurt you here. Tuck walks over. He puts. He puts his hand on Bruna's shoulder.

He's like, dude, I know exactly what you, what you mean. Right? It was crazy. Right? Like she pulls you into her like aura of insanity. Isn't it weird? Why do I want to kiss somebody that wants to kill me? Because of our issue. And Billy's just like, what is going on? All these daddy dudes. Yeah. Issue dudes. Issue dudes. Issue dudes. And you are off. Cloud piercer and Gale descend from the clouds. Bing's like doing two lassoos like this. Yeah. Out on the bow.

And then just like sends them out either side of the, throws them out to the side. And they grab them with their talons and they fly forward and the whole bow goes like. Cool. Cool. And you start getting dragged forward. And before you know it. Cool. The white knight and Victoria LeBlanc are a distant memory. Mm-hmm. Oh, my God. Oh, thank God. That was so stressful. She was so scary. You're covered in blood, Billy. Am I? You are. From what? I think it's from all those guys whose legs you sliced.

Yeah. I feel really bad about that. Maggie reaches down and wipes some of it away. Yeah. It's not his blood. It's not his blood. Don't worry. No. So Billy's like scrumbling around with the fanny pack. He's like, oh, I can never undo this very well. It's so tight on my waist. He pulls off and he's like, oh, I can't do this. I'm like, oh, I can't do this. I'm like, oh, I can't do this. I'm like, oh, I can't do this. And he unflapped the flaps of the flap. The flaps of the flap tent. Wow.

Lost it for a second there, huh? It's okay. It's a really flappy tent. Especially in the wind. Exactly. But there are moments where Billy unflaps the tent in a really fucked up way. You know when you watch a kid put his shirt on and you're like, what the fuck are you doing? How are you missing those holes? So he's doing it in a really weird way where it looks lopsided and fucked up. It's like he's added material to it.

And we're just like, it's going to be so much work to fucking figure out how to fold this back up. Bruno is just standing there watching. What the fuck is this? Oh my God, you're going to love it. And Billy pokes his head out. We're making oatmeal. He sticks his head out of a fanny pack. And Bruno just doesn't, he sees Billy stick his head out of a fanny pack and doesn't respond. And then Bruno looks back at the white knight and he's thinking about it. He's like, fuck. The enemy you know.

And he just turns and he walks to the hatch and he goes below deck. And you can just hear him say, I'm not fucking dealing with this. I'm not dealing with this right now, Bruno. You got to prioritize yourself, bro. It's time to go down below. Jack off. Go to bed. I guess that's exactly what a sailor would do. It's also what Bruno at any age, any era would do. Bruno in his 90s. Yeah. Bruno. It's time to go down below. Jack off. Go to bed, man. Take your pills. Jack off. Take your pills. Jack off.

Wash your mat lock. Eat some apple sauce. Jack off again. Go to sleep. Go to sleep. All right. And you guys head into the fanny pack. Billy's squatting on the counter, stirring a big pot of oatmeal. And Perel is on the couch snoozing with a bottle of wine in one hand and a book open on his chest on the other. Hey, how are you? Whoa. What? What the fuck happened? Get up. Get up. Off the couch. What? And he gets up off the couch. What happened?

Where are, where are, he goes out and he pokes his head out of the door and he's like, what the fuck? The flaps are like, and he zips it closed and points like thumbs at the door. What the fuck is happening out there? We found the clear water. Okay, cool. And also I got married. What? Yeah. How long was I asleep? It was literally 12 and a half hours. Oh. Whoa. Yeah, I can see that. I can see that actually. It was a .5 of a Fortnite. I feel excellent. So I can understand that. Yeah.

But yeah, we met. Have you ever heard of Victoria LaBlanche? No. Okay. She's nuts. Okay. And I, yeah, I low-key proposed to her and then got married to her. Yep. Unaware of that. Mm-hmm. Oh, wait, hold on. I'm not sure. Wow. Sorry. I was looking at the sword sticking out of your torso. Yeah. This is kind of our divorce papers. Okay. All right. And hold still. Breathe in. One, two, swing. And then what? Just hold us right after that? Yeah. Yeah. Compress, compress, compress.

There's just a spray of blood all up. Everywhere. Yeah. Yeah. He's just, his mouth is closed and the blood is just, just sprayed up his mouth, up his eye. Billy's like, oh, your porridge is ready. Get your hands on my bloody bowl of bloody porridge. I'm gonna go outside. Okay. But the porridge. He's holding the porridge in his hand and he just walks outside. Well, I'm gonna tuck in to my food. He's like, yeah. And Tuck is like, I, yeah, I'm gonna too. I'm gonna take a big one.

I'll love some porridge. And about 20 minutes later, Perel comes back in. Still kind of, still kind of bloody, but the blood's not on his face anymore. He doesn't have the oatmeal with him, but he has an empty bowl. Oh, nice. Yeah. He definitely scooped it overboard. He definitely did. He wouldn't eat it. So, what else happened out there? We got, wake her back. Oh, yeah, the cat. Yeah, I saw, that's exciting. I saw we're on a boat. That's insane. We're on a boat now. We got the clear water back.

Very cool. I saw Maggie running around. We're headed up north. Yeah. With the help of the Thunderbirds. Yeah, that was the, that was the initial plan. And then we're on a boat and Tuck got married and stabbed. Yeah. Okay. So, we're just heading north. Still the plan. Go to the glacier. Mm-hmm. What did you figure out? Weren't you going to figure something out? Yeah, we talked about it. What was it? It was that I thought Morris was in here. Oh, yeah.

And then the danger room opened because we found the safe. Uh-huh. There was a letter. Right. Did you read the letter? Yeah. And? None of your business. Okay. Fair, but, it's, it's, an, it's kind of an apology. Oh. And, I mean, uh, I, I think we talked about it. He, he kind of got wrapped up in the wizard's first stuff. Became like a pretty key player in the, um, the, uh, extra planar evacuation project. Waywalking. Yeah. That's what Tuck does. He goes, he goes, waywalking.

Yeah, I mean, he looks like, where's that come from? I mean, I mean, look, I, it is, it's, it is, it is an academic, he goes to a window or hole. Yeah, it is, it is an academic thing, so I really don't want to be an asshole, but it's not strictly waywalking. Remember, waywalking is a portion of it. Morris was kind of involved in the waywalking part of it, but kind of more involved in the, uh, extra planar construction part of it. Wow.

So, yeah, it was the, the, uh, the extraplanar evacuation project was the name that got thrown around a lot okay um but yeah so that sucked uh when he started getting involved in that we tried to convince him not to leave and then he was just gone one day and we thought that he didn't say goodbye but he did he just kept it in the fanny pack which is insane oh I get it now so this is oh my god it makes so much more sense this is not the safe for the fanny pack this was this is mortis's all safe what what's that this is a safe it's a safe that he made that existed in many places oh so this just ended up okay so does that mean that you can get to other places through the safe as a lifeless corpse yes oh does it kill you if you go in it does it kill you if you enter an airtight space for an extended period of time he says yes there's only one way to find that no he takes his shirt off for some reason I I'm sorry that it took me so long to connect the dots but yeah this is the all so so so so so I so I'm sorry so okay that makes sense so he put this somewhere that he expected us to find it we didn't and then everything went to hell oh yeah so you know it was nice I guess to read this I am still angry because I mean saying sorry that I left doesn't mean that I didn't leave you know what I mean yeah it's a confusing bit of closure yeah so or here counter proposal maybe maybe maybe maybe maybe!

Maybe! It in a personal safe. Yeah. And expecting, but then why didn't he destroy it? Maybe he lived unexpectedly. Yeah, no, that actually does make a lot of sense. Maybe he wrote it thinking he was going to leave, but then changed his mind because he never sent it or couldn't. Something happened to him before he sent it. Yeah. Oh my god, maybe something happened to him. Yeah. Oh my god. Maybe he just fucking died. No! Whoa, seriously. That could have happened. People die all the time.

Or, because I didn't notice how sad Peral's looking, he could have lived. He might just be on vacation for a really long time, or maybe he had to leave unexpectedly from his original plans. He sits down on the chaise lounge, which was destroyed, but he's trying to fix it. And he just kind of puts his head in his hands. There's so many books underneath it. Yeah, it is stacked up with a lot of books. Wow.

I was feeling kind of confused emotionally about this letter before you guys came in, and now I'm feeling confused about everything, because Morris could be alive, or he might be dead, or he could be anywhere, or he could be nowhere, or something might have happened to him. I have to talk to Aquaria about this. Well, I mean, here, I do have a question, just in general, about all of this. Because this, if Morris had to leave unexpectedly, if he was like the head of like the Exodus project.

He's not. Okay. Again, it was like a, it was a large undertaking by many wizards. Whatever. If he was like involved in it. Yeah. And Billy, what the fuck? Dude. I'm sorry, she just came at me. I ate really fast. I'm so sorry. You put too much cinnamon in the porridge. That's what it was. Oh, well, thanks. Maybe you can cook it next time if you don't like my cooking. You know we're trying to let him do things on his own. I know, and it was good porridge. It was better than last time.

Last time there was all raisins? Yeah. Yes. He called it porridge, but it was a bowl of raisins. So much raisins. Hot raisins. Billy goes to sit in the cupboard. Oh, no. Not the cupboard. He closes it, leaves it open a little bit, just so he can hear. Uh-huh. Little eye in the darkness. Okay, so here's my question. So Morris was involved in this project. Yep. There's a good chance that he wasn't, he hadn't totally decided to leave. Uh-huh.

There's a good chance he had to leave maybe really quick or something. There's a good chance that he was conflicted about what to do with his life. Sure. But what the fuck happened right before the exodus? Do you know? What do you mean? Like… So you're sitting there. Yeah. It's not the exodus. Okay. All of a sudden it is the exodus. Right. What happened then? We've talked about this. It wasn't an event. The exodus was a series of events that took place over a number of years. For you. For me?

I… Was gone by that point. I'd gone back to the riverways. I'd gone back to my tower. And my plan was you know, some people had already started leaving. And I noticed, me and some colleagues, Aquaria, I and some other wizards had noticed that the leaving, the hot spots that were left behind was causing havoc on the material plane. So I'd gone back to my tower to do some research.

And then like I said, wizards live a long time and we count our time a little differently than maybe other people do. So this was probably a couple years that I was away. And by the time things got really bad, all of a sudden, bing bang boom, people outside my tower, whoopsie doopsie, I'm in a box. But do you know like what could have happened that would have made… Because Mars isn't going to just leave unexpectedly unless it's a fucking disaster. Yeah. So what could it have been?

I wish I could answer that question. Billy pops his lips out so it's like this. He's like, maybe at our neck all water will know. Yeah, maybe. Yeah, she might. And then he sticks his head out more. I'm so mad. Yeah, I thought you were in your cupboard. I am. And this is assuming that Adternack is there because we're actually just looking for a box that may or may not contain the spirit. I bet she's there. I mean, maybe. And he goes into the cupboard. She's there. She's there. There.

Yeah, speaking of which, should we like, we're sailing now, but should we take the Thunderbirds? I think so. It'd be way faster. We don't have to go through the Jaws. Let's do it. Yeah, I guess what we just… Oh, well, we've passed the Jaws because they were back where Victoria was when we started. No, no, no. We missed the Jaws? No. How big are they? Well, the Jaws is like an ice field, remember? Oh. Yeah, so it's like a field of… I thought it was like…

No, no, it's like an ice field that you have to pass through and it's very treacherous. Oh, okay. But if we can take the birds we can fly over it. What if we drop the clear water off at Old Shear? Well, just like, bye-bye. Yeah. I think Old Shear is the place that you're past. Damn it. Yeah, but I mean, there's probably like, you know, a cove somewhere that you can hide it. We can probably, yeah. Oh, yeah. Ving knows a cove. Where is it? Billy comes out. He's not mad anymore. He's too curious.

Yeah. 2d6 plus intelligence for a Spout Lore. This is a cove from the past. Oh, come on, man. This cove was created millions of years ago geologically. I got eight. Eight. So interesting but not useful. Lay it on me. Oh, yeah, the cove. There's a geothermal vent. There's a bay that has volcanic vents that come up. It's called the Goblin's Bath. And people back in the day, kids would go there for northern spring break. There's nothing set up, but it's a real slog to get there by land.

But in the winter, you could go do, we would take our ice racers up there. And yeah, you could get there. You take the ice racers up there, you get fucking wasted. You get led. It's a blast. So is it like a really tiny resort sort of? No, there's no buildings. No, no, no. You go up there and you build ice huts and everything. You'd have to bring everything up yourself. That's cool. There's nothing up there.

But what is up there and the reason it's called the Goblin's Bath is goblins, as we all know, being cold-blooded and needing heat to survive, there is a kind of arctic goblin that lives in and around the baths because they need the thermal waters. Cool. So they're attracted to it. They're like those monkeys that sit in the pools. And I think these ones, they're like kind of repto mammals in a way.

So they have like, fur because it's so cold up here that they're furry, but also reptilian and they just like sit in the baths with their like furry little reptile ears. Like bats? Frosty little mustache. Yeah, like bats. And maybe they actually do have like bat-like noses and stuff like that to sniff fur things on the cold arctic winds. Yeah. So there's little enclaves of like arctic goblins up here. Because of the heat, like it has this unique oceanic climate. Yeah, exactly. A microclimate.

Okay. You go and you share this with Maggie. And it is like, it's gonna be a little bit, it's gonna be like maybe a day. Maggie goes, alright, that sounds perfect. We can set her in there. Hide her away. We can leave the crew. I think the people on this boat, we got some trustworthy folk. That Eric kid was a real cad when we grabbed him, but he seems like he knows what's up. Bruno wildcard. Yeah. Not in terms of the danger to us, but in terms of the danger to himself.

And then we got some others, but we should be fine. Are we doing like a perilous journey or whatever? Yeah, I guess so. To kind of see if we see anything or find anything on the way. Because there are unfortunately still few enough people that you guys are required to do actual jobs on the boat. Fuck. Yeah. Billy's been given the job of coiling ropes that are like as thick around as his neck, basically. He's like, can I just do the floor washing? It's so much easier.

Billy, I'm trying to challenge you. But my arms are so tired. Okay. All right. Fine. You can clean. And she gives you a sponge that's basically as big as your body. Yes. And so Billy like is pushing it around the deck, like running. Walking back and forth pushing a sponge. Perfect. So we're going to need some, I mean, Billy's busy cleaning the deck with a sponge. It's going to take him all day because he needs to walk the length of this ship.

So someone's going to have to scout and someone's going to have to navigate. I don't think we, I mean, I thought the birds are pulling us still. Yeah. The birds are still pulling you. So don't they navigate? Yeah. Because Ving's just like, you know, head for the steam on the horizon. Yeah. Go for the devil's lab, yeah, or whatever. Cloud Piercer's like, fear not, Ving. Rest well on this boat. I will guide us ahead.

And Gale, who pushes her way into your mental connection, goes, yeah, don't worry, Ving. We've got it under control. Whoa, what the fuck? I just thought I wanted to be involved in your conversation. That's fine. You're allowed in here just a little bit of like… Consent before you enter somebody's mind is usually typically the way the spirit animal connections go. And her mental connection is so much louder than Cloud Piercer's. Yes, it's like, can I, you just turn that down.

Ving, can you hear me? Yes, I can hear you very well. Ving, can you hear my mind? You don't need, your mind is louder than your person. I'm connecting to your mind now, Ving. I, you hear, do you hear me? Give me an affirmative if you can hear me. Affirmative. In your mind. She basically hasn't pulled her thumb off of the button on the walkie-talkie. Oh my god. Gail, you need to, um, Cloud Piercer, I'm, okay, I'm gonna walk you, I'm gonna try and walk you through this.

I need you to take Gail's thumb uh, beezor, tap it twice, and then rub it three times, counterclockwise to try and get her to get to the settings menu. Yes, exactly. You're gonna go to audio and video. And then you hear Gail go, Ving, have you ever heard a song that goes ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba I cannot be connected to Gail's mind It's stuck in my head. He's like, wait, no, actually, this is, okay, no, no, I, this is actually, I'm really close. Do it again.

Uh, and they figure out a way, like, alright, yeah, we're gonna we'll head to, uh, Goblin's Balls and, yeah. Maybe that's the navigate for Ving. Is trying to get Gail and Cloud Piercer to deal with this conversation. Alright, then I guess Ving is gonna have to navigate. Okay, that's fine. Uh, and Tuck is given the option of scouting ahead. Yeah, man, I'll scout. Okay, alright. Uh, eight. Uh, eight.

On a seven to nine, I choose one from the list below, which is you happen upon a discovery, the going is slow, or you encounter a danger. And Tuck. Uh, yes. Two to six plus wisdom to scout ahead. Okay. Okay, minus one is eight. Alright, so you get to choose one. You get to drop on whatever lies ahead, discern a beneficial aspect of the terrain, make a discovery, or notice a danger. Um, I kinda wanna discern a beneficial aspect of the terrain. Okay, yeah. Define this, this fjord. Yeah, totally.

So you are looking at the coastline one day as you've been given the job of moving a barrel from one part of the ship to the other. Okay. And then back again. Cause Maggie was like, this is the only thing that will keep them occupied. Tuck, I just really need to make sure that you know that this barrel needs to go all over the ship. It's like, it's an old sailor superstition. Okay, Maggie. This barrel's full of salt cod. Ooh. And we have to make offerings to the gods and spirits of the sea.

Okay. So take it to each corner of the boat to make sure the entire boat has been blessed. And then Tuck goes, I appreciate you trusting me with such an important task. And you begin moving a barrel from one corner of the ship to the other corner of the ship to the next. I said, I shall smudge this cod across this boat. But as you're like looking at the coastline, you're seeing like, pillars of, of smoke and steam, like from various settlements. Oh, cool. Or natural formations.

And uh, as a street kid, you've seen a lot of chimneys in your time. Oh, yeah. And you see one billowing cloud in the distance and you're like, that's gotta be steam. Uh-huh. And you realize that there is like a series of thermal vents along the coastline. And if you follow these fjords, you can basically get inland faster and then trace your way through different, like, fjord networks to the goblin's bath. They follow a fault line that's along the ocean floor. Oh! Yeah, exactly.

Uh, and Ving, you communicate that to, uh, Gale and Cloud Piercer, and Cloud Piercer is like, ah, perfect. Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. He's, him and Ving have been sharing a mind too long. Uh, yeah. Dumb. It's not even full sentences anymore. It's just perfect. Perfect. Fly now. Good. Goodbye. On track. Ving, did you get that message? I sent you earlier. There's this other song that I was thinking about. It goes like, It's, um, Me and Julio Down by the Ice Race. I don't think that's it, Ving.

It is. Listen again. It goes, It's Me and Julio Down by the Ice Race. I really don't think that's it. One more time. It has that little, yeah. Uh, and so the, the navigate. I get to choose one, but let's all choose it together. So you happen upon a discovery missed by the scout. The going is slow. So you wander off course. The GM says which and where you end up on the map or you encounter a danger. Those are the three. Discovery, danger, takes a long time. I say discovery. Yeah. Discovery?

Yeah, discovery. You know what that means? Get out your D12s, fuckers. We're rolling on the tables. Okay, so roll it. Two. Nine. Four. Interesting. Okay. So it actually worked out perfectly. You rolled for natural feature. Jessica rolled for water feature within natural feature. And Paul rolled for creek slash stream slash brook. Yeah, so this fault line, maybe it's really deep and there are underwater caves. Oh, yeah.

So you're like the water's so clear up here too that if you look below, you can see the bubbles from the fault lines and the thermal vents like bubbling up, but you can see them being swept away into underwater passages. And it's mostly just like a very interesting visual effect. It's really pretty. Oh, and there's like algae in there that's bioluminescent. Oh, so there's like whorls of glowing blue algae. Blues, greens, pinks. Very pretty. Wow, Billy's like staring. Oh, it's the boiling aurora.

Oh, the boiling aurora. What do they say about the boiling aurora? They're saying they're people call them they call them the sirens of the north because the beauty will draw people are hypnotized by it and they will draw you into the deep. So looking at the colors and the patterns for too long. That's true. I guess like you're safe on a ship, but if you try to swim in these waters because of all the different currents, they'll suck you under into one of the caves. Yeah.

And you see there are people like, looking over the side. Whoa, Bruno. Whoa, it's fucking trippy as fuck down there. It would be kind of cool if like the water's so clear you can see into the caves and then because of the way the currents work, you can see like all of the stuff that's been sucked in there. So there's like gold and gems. Also bones. Yeah, so many bones. So treasure is a siren. Pieces of ships. Old, yeah, vessels and all that stuff.

So yeah, all this like a bunch of sailors are going to the edge of the boat. I mean the small small crew that you have because you're being pulled by two huge birds, but they're like there's treasure like there. It's like the kind of thing that you're like we're so close to right there. A fortune so big and it's like because that effect that the water has where it's like it makes everything look closer. People are just like we could we could if we just found a way to get down there.

It's not even that deep like that's the really allure. It's like I could hold my breath for that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, but the water is boiling so much. Don't do it. Do it. Oh, but I want to do it so bad Billy. Yeah, but look at all the bones. Yeah people before who couldn't get out and they want to do the same thing you want to do right now. Yeah, weak people. No, I don't think so. I'm strong Bruno. I was able to defeat you twice with a stool. Yeah, look at you. You're huge though. You're huge.

That's not fair. I'm going to do it. It's walking up to the edge of the boat. My God. No, he starts walking to the edge. I spear tackle Bruna. All right, 2d6 plus straight. Nine. Oh, I'll aid. Yes, I can't. I'm dragging a rope. The thick rope. Uh-huh. Two to six was bond nine. Okay, so it's a 1010. So Billy and tuck restrain Bruno. No, let me go. I want to get the treasure Bruno. I saw a sick-ass fucking helmet down there. I look so cool in it. It's probably like a billion years old.

We'll get you a different helmet later. I wanted that home Bruno. Sometimes you don't get what you want. I thought being could turn into fucking elemental Freaks and flip around and swim and shit. Hey now and I slap him. Okay, have some humility. Have some fucking respect. Absolutely right Billy. I don't know what I was thinking. Do you want to be in there like a bag of bones? Should we have left you on the boat with Victoria? LeBlanc?

No, we didn't save you just so you could fucking die in a fucking weird treasure crevasse. Okay, fine. Go downstairs. Take care of your business. Okay, but just before I go and check off and go to sleep. I just want to say one more thing what thing can turn into elemental forms that allow him to swim. All right, fine. And then we turn and we talk to Ving. We're like, can you go down there and get some shit? You got to get some shit. You got to get some shit.

You guys the treasures getting to you. These are magical waters. I'm not going in there. We are being a little bit of it. Yeah guys come with me and just slowly like puts his arm around them walks him away from the edge of the boat and Billy's looking over again. Like I guess that is a pretty cool helmet. Yeah, he's gonna try to switch your room. Oh, yeah. Cloak. What are you trying to switcheroo it with? I don't know. I guess this scrub brush for the deck. What the fuck? All right. Try it.

It's just trying to sponge read. Squish. Switcheroo again. It's been a long time. So switcheroo basically like I can it's what it sounds like like I take one object and I can switch places with another object using that object. Right? Yes. All right, and you can switch the materials of objects. Yeah. Yeah, it's 2d6 plus charisma on a seven to nine. I pick one of three where the effect works for all last for a long time and I keep control on 10 plus works a hundred percent. Mm-hmm.

And I'm standing next to Billy. Yeah. And I'm like, which one are you going to go for? Definitely the helmet. The helmet. Cool. Cool. Cool. No, if he behaves and tuck is like cool. Cool. Cool. What do you want? Nothing? No, I don't care. You get the helmet. It's your thing. Is it nothing? What is it? Tuck is like he's eyeing his shapely Gord. Yeah, Tuck's eyeing a shapely Gord. That's the golden gourd. Aren't you shapely decorative? Golden Gord? Yeah.

I think your love of Gord's is getting us in trouble. That is a an eight. Okay. So on the seven to nine, I can choose one of the three of effect works for all last for a long time or I keep control. I think I'd like to keep control. It wait. So on a hit that means that you still do it. I still do it but it doesn't last for a long time and it won't work for all. Okay. So you are looking. You're holding the scrub brush in your hands. You're looking at this glittering helmet and blink of an eye.

Nobody even sees it happen. All of a sudden Billy's holding exactly this. What does this helmet look like? I imagine it's like pointed like it's like, you know, those like it's like pointed and has like wings like yeah, sure. It's got wings on the side and then like scales or like chain kind of hanging from the back like to protect the dragon like yeah. Yeah, it's like pointy. And the wings are pointy like a dragon wings and then it's got a maybe like it's like a head or a tail on top. Cool.

Yeah. Oh, maybe it's like a features of like claws on either side of the head. Like it's an open mouth. Yeah, maybe this is something that we the authors of this world would recognize as a piece of armor from the white cloud mountains. That's what I was thinking too. Whoa. So yeah, he's holding it like I don't even want to give it to Bruno now. Don't there's there's a there's a motif on the helmet.

That you can tell it's only half of the helmet is carved, but you could tell that the carvings describe every battle that this helmet has been through. That's why it's only half carved because it was lost before the end of the person's life. That's cool. And the skills are all made out of coins with squares in the middle. Coins from the white cloud mountain. Cool. Hold up to Vang. Can you read this? Yeah. No, you can't check it. I ever wait. But I have bardic lore for history.

Yeah, you could maybe learn something about it, but I'm not sure that you'd be able to read this language for context for people who don't have the access to the outlander stuff. The white cloud mountains are the white cloud mountains are basically like a mountainous territory. Very north of McCall and it's separated by a huge desert as a pretty bare landscape, but they grow tea. It's the home of a lot. Dragons and people who came from Hibernia. Yeah, and it's a very isolated. Place.

You know what? We can get a red pony. I had a nerd on this boat. Yeah, and Burrell comes huffing. I heard something about reading. Reading. I heard somebody say you needed a nerd and who can read. I'm both of those things. He's running and he does the thing that kids do where they run too fast. They trip over his own clothes slams into the ground. Wait. We might as well spell lower about this helmet. Yeah, to the intelligence. No wisdom because it's all right. Yes. Nice eight. Perfect.

Seven nine interesting but useful interesting but not useful. Nice. So you are looking at this with a combination of Perel trying to translate a language. I look I knew a wizard from the white cloud mountains, but I didn't ever learn the language. So I know some but not enough to be able to read it. So it's I think we can figure it out and you all kind of sit around. With this helmet kind of you're all sitting cross-legged on the deck.

Perel's got it in his lap and he's bouncing stuff off being who's heard stories and cetera and one of the battles describes like a group of dragon riders basically riding out to defend the mountains from a great dragon who had become corrupted by what? I mean gold. Or I mean, these are just things that are usually treasure erupted dragons. Maybe the dragons because the white cloud mountains are on the same continent as McCall, right? Maybe that dragon got corrupted by an icon. Mmm. Could be.

Yeah. Wow. Absolutely. A demon dragon. Yeah. Yeah. My God. It's the only time it's ever happened. Yeah. So you guys are like he was an obsidian dragon. Cool. And pearls like whoa wait. So does that mean that the dragon? Was. Possessed? This sounds like an icon possessed by a force. That's so weird though because icons are like a human thing. But dragons have legs like sapient intelligence. Yeah. I mean if dragons are sapient, which I don't think I've ever really considered. They totally are.

What? What do you mean? Well, we told you about Black Spire. Oh, right. Yeah. So now that I mean like yeah, it's dragons are sapient. The icons are reflections or. The origin of sapient thought and concept. Yeah. I mean. There are so many other beings out there. That are possessed and we're not thinking about it. Yeah, that's a great point Billy.

I mean iconography was never really my thing but it stands to reason that any sapient being could be possessed by an icon and that is an absolutely terrifying thought. It's going over my head now. And then. At this point. We all look over at wicker. She's sharpening a knife. Her eyes glow red. Yeah. Now she in reality wicker is curled up on a coil of rope with a little fabric mouse in her teeth. And all of a sudden Perel is hands are soaked and he's holding a scrub brush in his hands. No.

What the fuck happened? And then we all realize that Perel is holding a chore basically. And we get up and run away. What? No, wait. Oh. Dan's not it. Fuck. Scrubs. Scrubs. Scrubs. He starts scrubbing the deck. That was one of the things right Billy's thing wasn't going to last for a long time. Yeah. Okay. And the ship carries on a little bit of fun lore to pass the time and later the next day you leave.

A final stretch of Fjord and enter the hot summer vacation locale that thing remembers from his youth. The Goblins bath. It is a wide thermal Lake with that sort of like blue green milky milky looking water like rich in minerals and you can feel the temperature change. As you enter this kind of Bay Perel's got his summer clothes on. Yeah. He is just like we. It is a hot one today. Blue zinc on his nose. Yeah.

And you look out onto the Goblins bath and see mast in the water and along the shore hundreds and hundreds of Arctic goblins and Ving suddenly recalls why people never came to the Goblins bath at this time of year. It's mating season. And that's where we're going to end it for this week. I'm your game master. Sean O'Hara joining me as always playing Tacoma Dome, the Barbarian Abdul Aziz. So long.
