No, they're all different, but they're all from

There's three races that live in the astral plane
main races.
And it's it's the which is what this big lady and Carlac are.
The uh G. That's how you say it. guy, which is the
head of a pin,
which is the guy in the a spear in the skull,
and then the lith people.
Gotcha.
Or simply a challenge to Blackith's rule.
Return to the astral prism. Slay Orpheus the Pretender.
Serve me and I will ascend you. You will be.
No, we already got We already got uh Dream Daddy.
Yeah, Dream Daddy. Dream. A man.
Dream Daddy.
They just made money.
Commander of dragons. My only my chosen.
Wait, we can ride dragons
before me.
Can I have it?
Make your promise.
Now, parasites resonate. Now, I've never had this happen while I was here.
She moves to kneel before her queen.
Why? Why? Why? Why use the word ecstasy? Yeah, I know. So [ __ ] you feel Lizelle's squirt hit your lip. What? Um
uh Yeah. Are you just spam clicking?
Yeah. All right. Ooh,
I I It's not showing me. Normally, it does.
It's a 20 of 30. It's a
You got a nat 20
and a nat 20 to tell Lizelle not to do it.
She has good reason. Surely is my faith, my my very purpose.
Look, you can Oh, you have to do it again.
Wow. I mean, you know, to be fair, I actually like that because that
that it's it's going against everything she believes in.
Yeah.
Um,
intimidate or persuade? I I intimidates where I get my pluses. It's an 18 now.
Okay.
Okay.
Oh, I missed though.
I bet you have a million. Uh,
I have three.
You have three.
I think four is your max. Oh, okay. That's worse. All right, last one. Yay. Okay, you get you got it.
I got a 28 with a 20 with images of black.
I got a sweaty Yankee.
She is simultaneously super hot and ugly at the same time.
Yeah, right.
Our people deserve the truth, but you have denied it to us.
I have witnessed too much.
She just blows up like that. going to be too little.
Oh. Oh my god.
Pink mister.
Yeah. Looks at us like, "So, what are we going to do here?
We're going to go kill Orpheus.
This is my word."
Your word is nothing. You are nothing.
The Kraki will bring you. I will tear your flesh from your bones and devour your skulls marrow while you beg for death.
We back up.
Yeah, we're like backing away pushing Lizelle forward.
It's like, "Oh, this is you. This is you. This is all you.
Goodbye." Okay, that was a dramatically lame exit.
Yeah, it was. Oh jeez. I'm over here like sleeping. Hey, what's going on? Oh, hey. What's up, Carl? Oh, Carlac wants to talk.
Yes, she does.
Oh, wait. Hey,
she's still here.
Why you laying down? Hey, Lizelle.
No, the dame Alen is still here. I guess she's just going to help us fight whenever the time comes. I want to talk to Lizelle.
Yo, dude, I've been [ __ ] sworn.
Have you? I thought you've been I thought that you were trying to swoon swoon Carlac.
No, I'm not swooning anyone.
Oh,
no. We I ruined things with Carlac by killing everyone at the [ __ ] the other place.
That's why you can go ahead and tell her. Talk to her. Tell her what's up.
Oh, I don't really care.
Okay.
I can't talk to Carl, though. I don't think she likes me enough.
Oh,
you turned my eyes to the truth. Vlack's forsaken me, and there's no going back. No,
I would love for there to be the sex scene, but every everyone's fully clothed
over the
Everyone's dry humping.
As it should be.
Better a short life built on truth than immortality woven of lies.
Just like you're walked around with a [ __ ] stain on your bodies.
So why do I feel so bitter? Oh, you've been lied to for your entire life. Takes a lot to wake up to the fact that no religion has your best interests out.
Nat 20 again has upended Lasel.
You want me to drag my sack across your face to be true of plan and aspiration she
Oh man, I can see you're really sad. Would you like me to drag my nuts across your face and make you
bitterness of sadness? She's mourning the loss of the person she once was and can never be again.
Oh, that sucks for you.
Uh uh let's see. Ah, both of these are good.
Yeah, I know. Uh, you know what? I don't know. I don't know. Lzel seeds and distilled into rattling in the belly, but I've never known this.
I feel no heat, no cold.
I bear neither fangs nor talon. There is only absence. No matter. I am Vlac's child no more. I have been born a new in G's son, my savior. And so from the old battle cries is birthed another salar orpheus still not.
So just you have no identity. Your entire identity is has to be tied to a god.
Yeah. Has to be.
Wow, that was really quick.
My need.
Yeah. And now she's like, "Let's freedom would be to deny my own."
Oh, wow.
That's really cool. We're not going to do that.
All I can think of beyond the
dream daddy says, "No,
dream would liberate them.
But that time won't come until the prince of the comet flies again."
Ah, yes.
On to other matters.
I see you still have your pants on.
Yeah. Yeah, let me go into your inventory and take those away. All right, have fun. All right. Hey, what's up, Carlac? Let's see if you'll talk to me.
Soldier, my engine. It hurts.
I think you mean your heart.
Be it soon.
No, my heart on.
Thing's burning hotter than I knew it could.
So, are you a machine? We're both to be ready if well if we can't fix me.
Oh, no. No, we can't. There's no there's no fixing you. I killed the guy who can fix you.
Did you? Yeah, I did.
No. Uh Damon the
Oh, at the camp. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. He He's the only one who can fix her. I killed him.
Bit sweaty, but up for whatever's next. Anyway,
thanks, soldier.
Is he really the only one who can fix her?
I'm pretty sure that's that's the only way I've seen to go through and save her.
Huh?
But I have no idea.
Where's Shadow Heart? I'm just kidding. We She left.
Oh, yeah, she did. I forgot about that. I was about to say, uh, where is she? No, she
She's super super girl. After we saved the night song,
she's like, "How could you do that? I'm evil."
Or whatever.
Ran off and cried. Yeah.
It'd be interesting if we could uh
run into her.
Yeah.
They're pretty cool. Oh, Dream Daddy.
Dream Daddy. Are you also walking up to Dream Daddy?
Yeah, I'm going to go sit with him on the bench.
Cool. How did you?
So we
So we're both having our own separate thing with Dream Daddy.
My mind wander
enough for you to wander in.
God, I can't wait to hear your reaction.
I am drained. Ever since you killed Katherine and took his Netherstone, the chosen's control of the brain has been brittle. Its rebellion against Orin and Gortach has been fierce. A
executes their final orders. Once those orders are complete, there is a good chance it will break free.
You feel the emperor's fear as if it were your own.
An elder brain enslaved is one thing. An elder brain unleashed will be the end of everything.
Beautiful, isn't it?
The mighty Prince Orpheus, contained in submissive slumber. Come. You may as well sit a while now that you are here. Your company isn't unwelcome.
Your company is disgusting. I picked uh Yeah. I just want to have a sleepless night or a dreamless night.
Just a dude. I just want to go to bed.
Distracted of late. I'm haunted by memories. They are relentless. I can think of nothing. No one else. Indeed. Duke Stelmain. Or as I knew her, Merlin went
Oh, Duke Stalem. I think that Oh,
was that the one that was killed?
Far from
I have long sought the allyship of others. It is the only way to succeed. Though my relationship with Berlin was different from my relationship with you.
I really don't care what your relationship with her was like. In life, she was my business partner back when we ran the Knights of the Shield. A difficult task for a mind flare. Duke Stalem trusted me and the city trusted her. I concede the plot, but Berlin took center stage.
Their eyes are super cool.
Merchants, politician,
like Flair's eyes. Yeah, I like them.
It was she who negotiated deals and signed off on a
Okay. Yeah. There's three ways to save uh to save Carlac conversations in the city.
Um
so we only have we only have two brought to chaos.
At its height, everything that happened in that city went through the shield through us. I could not have done any of it without her. Just as I cannot do any of this without you.
Okay, so he knows that she's dead. But now she is gone.
Do you need a hug?
God d like I love how we like can side with him but then still be like the biggest [ __ ] Drop the act. I know you don't have feelings.
Yeah, right. Uh he's he Dream Daddy's hitting on you pretty hard, man. like
what I feel is deeper than superficial cures can reach and not entirely unwelcome. Most people think that mind flares are soulless husks who feel nothing. I am glad you are not most people.
I'm not going to give the emperor's hand a reassuring squeeze.
Why not? Oh, they did some facial where he was like I don't know what that was.
Great empathy. We are close enough.
Looked like he was smiling like they did his eyes as if it was a smile.
Consider your position regarding your physical form.
I know it is no easy.
Nope. I'm not changing.
But we will have a far better time ridding the city of Gortach if you accept just a touch of lividness.
No, dude. I know you're trying to get get your tentacles wet.
Our chances against it greatly improve the more elithid we both are.
Nope.
Another quake. The brain is rebelling again. I need to focus. And so do you.
Yeah. Nope. I'm not eating that thing. I'm actually going to go sell it.
The worm.
Yeah. I'm sure this won't fall into the wrong hands.
All right. So, how can we save Carlac now?
Um, I I uh one way is turning her into a mind flare. That's the only way right now dulge you because we have the means to do that.
Um, but that would also mean, you know, talking her into it. I mean, I wonder if we could talk in talk uh Jihira into
I don't think so.
I don't see I mean, I assume everyone here is able to do it.
Yeah, you you can I think it's all like 20 persuasion roles and [ __ ] like that.
Damn, it can't have been easy for Lazelle to stand up to Vlac like that. There's nothing that woman can't do. This is I need to put clothes on [ __ ] I need to put clothes on her.
Oh yeah. Jeez, you have a bunch of options to talk to her.
Yeah,
the emperor number nine. The emperor has offered us a special tadpole.
Yeah,
special tadpole. Bit of a contradiction in terms, don't you think? I don't even want a regular one.
You're talking about turning into what? A half squid? Yes.
Surprised you haven't tried it yourself yet?
We only have one.
Oh, you're actually going to try it?
Yeah, why not?
Just [ __ ]
You're like, come on.
You've got to be kidding.
You really want me to become a partial? Wasn't a decade in earnest. Punishment enough. All right, I'm not going to do it again.
Thank the gods.
I'm just going to put this right in between your butt cheeks.
Yeah. Uh, can you sleep without your uh tent tonight? Like, just look up at the sky.
Yeah. Sleep on your
All right, let's get the [ __ ] out of here.
Also, if you notice behind you, there's a ton of [ __ ] oranges on the ground. I did.
As soon as you tele As soon as you teleported away, the [ __ ] little girl popped up again.
Oh, did she?
Yeah. I And I chased her out of the camp and beat her with my stick. I shot her in the face. All right. Hey, we're still at the circus
in the middle of blood bath. Yeah.
Who is Lucriccius?
Yeah. I think she's the person who owns the
screaming children and oozing corpse. And it's not even my birthday. Lucriccius, ring master, necromancer, bringer of the night. Oh, and wine lover extraordinaire. It's a pleasure, darling. I thought the absolute wouldn't dare set foot in my circus to use such a woeful dribbles impersonator. Why, it's downright rude.
Yeah. Yeah, we um can't tell this is a girl or a drag.
Uh it's definitely drag.
I think so. When you run a plane hopping circus of rags.
Why did her eyes go cross?
Look at I did. I did.
Funerals are so very
The tracking on them was [ __ ] up.
Circus, but I cannot leave just yet. Not without dribbles. He was a star. Customers of every color in
Oh, this must be it. Here's his torso.
I need him back. and I'll shower the person who finds him in love, adoration, and adequate compensation. What do you say?
Uh, sure. I'll look for him.
That's the spirit, darling. And remember, I look after those who make me happy.
Good deal.
Good luck.
All right. Do I have his body? Is that Is that who I have?
Hello again, my vicious little warrior.
Oh, I guess not. finding dribbles.
Well, we need all pieces.
Oh, do we really?
Yeah. I want to say there's like five, six pieces.
I see. Yeah. I'm not I I don't want to do that. That's a lot of pieces. I mean, if we naturally do it,
dude. Do they just quit giving you shops like after act one?
No, no, no. But we're getting ready to run into a bunch of them. We just have to get into [ __ ] Boulders Gate.
Like you would think there'd be stuff that we could buy here.
I think there is once we get closer, but we haven't hit the main area yet.
Like in this we we we're only in the backside. Uh there's a whole there is a main shopping area and that's where like you get like two or three quests at maybe maybe just one. Um,
but yeah, it starts to pop like stuff starts to pop up over there.
Come, mortals.
Yeah, I'm sure there's a lot of wacky characters we can talk to, but I don't really want to just talk to him anymore.
Yeah, there's a
And if you go the other way, Oh.
Uh, that's the way we started. Yeah, this is where we came in at and we started.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
Whoops.
Another horde of refugees.
Yeah. I mean, where would you I feel like you'd have to look it up and be like, "Where's where's Dribbles and all of his bo like his whole body?"
Yeah, I'm pretty sure like it's just a random thing. You run into every piece of him eventually.
All right. Um I'm going to let you go first. I'll let you start. I'll let you talk to these guys.
Oh, okay. Oh, that steel watcher level 11.
Yeah,
they're so cool looking. Orders of Lord Gortach. Refugees are no longer allowed in the city. Turn around.
Well, do you have the means to support yourself?
Uh, dude, I'm wearing a full gold plate armor.
Right. Article 30.1.5 of the council's decree on extraordinary wartime measures. I am confiscating that. The city thanks you for your contribution. Your name,
[ __ ]
Daisy Drew,
citizen fluffington parasite stares from the construct. You feel connection, resonance.
Not just yet. State your business.
Getting pushed. I'm getting paused, bro. Um, I'm here to enlist your assing here now. Your business
attack. There's a level. Oh, actually, Asterion has a construct arrow that would do double damage. Yeah, those those things are [ __ ] nuts.
I bet if I can sneak attack and and get it. Um there's there's a handful of those like arrow like they're slayer arrows that hit certain Yeah. And it does like double damage to that item.
Uhhuh.
It's really good.
Eyes open. Body still. So, but I'll come back later.
Behind the watcher's gaze, a presence awakens. You are seen. You are known. Your party's prior transgressions are reflected in its stare. As witnessed by the cult's ever alerts crying eyes, it has heard the howls of goblins. It has seen the deep shadows of Grim Forge and the stone floors left bloodied. The cold walls of Moonrise Towers and the cultists who fell there. The Watcher speaks directly into your mind with a voice like poisoned honey.
You are marked for special treatment. Not simply an enemy of
Oh, well, that's fair.
But an enemy of the absolute.
Come quietly or die. Please comply now, citizen. I will interpret.
Did you just inhale deeply?
Resistance.
Yeah, I did.
Take this, you pile of junk.
God damn it.
Oh, thank God.
I talked you into saving these guys. I Okay, I don't I don't What? Just every [ __ ] moment in this goddamn game is so jank. Who the [ __ ] is that? Where did they come from? It's just like out of nowhere. [ __ ]
Like,
so that we did run in. So, we saved those guys from the cave.
That's who that is.
Yeah. With near.
Yeah.
Yeah. No, I I know because they're the only halflings you run into, but that cutscene is so jarring.
So was so janky.
Um, so we entered into here.
Um, and basically
we had the dark gnomes help us get past that big robot guy.
Yeah. Who is he? So Oh, wait. He's still like stunned back here.
Yeah, he's still he should still be stunned. He's he's basically broken.
Oh, okay. Yeah. So before because uh Bailey and I had to had to stop after this. Um and I was about to go on this huge preamble about that [ __ ] scene.
Yeah, it was pretty like shows him randomly. Yeah, I think that's like it it feels like that that clip was almost just like cut from something else and then just forcefully interjected cuz it feels so out of nowhere and like whiplash of just like, "Oh, okay. These guys are here now."
Yeah. It doesn't like there's nothing really there to really tell you that anything just happened. It happens and that's it. And then it's done. And you know, I was told that we can actually go out and try and find those. Like we can do a quest where the guard has us go find them.
And it's like it's all I mean that's all fine that the decisions you make in act one,
you know, do come back, but I I just wish there was more like buildup, more something besides just uhoh, we're in trouble with the these guards. We need to get out of get out of here. And it's just like, oh, I foy the rebellion or whatever they [ __ ] said. And then they throw a grenade and then it's just like, oh, and boop, they're gone.
That was it. Yep. We're done.
That was Yeah, there was a uh Have you ever seen the Expendables?
Um Yeah. Yeah. With like all like the really big uh
like action movie people. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. I don't remember which one it is, but there's a po there's a scene where like Sylvester Stallone's character is going to like rescue this chick and she got she gets captured. It's at the very end he shows up to rescue her and she's like, "Uh, how'd you get here?" And his response is, "I just am." And that's how that's how this this feels. She uh darknomes, where'd you come from? Or how did you get here? We just are. Ah, okay. And that's it.
Yeah.
Anyway, that's my preamble uh on that scene.
You know, I honestly wish I would have heard the preamble like the minute like right after.
It would have been a little bit more like,
man, [ __ ] this.
This one was pretty tame compared to what you normally go on after we've been doing it for like a [ __ ] hour or two.
That's true. Yeah. Like I've I'm now I'm in a good mood. It's like there's certain board games that I'll play that like it's like it's mainly board games with dice that I'll be like, "Ah, you know, this is fine." And then the more I keep rolling dice, the more I start getting really [ __ ] annoyed. So then I get more and more irritated.
So
Oh, yeah. There's a random guy I'm selling everything, starting to sell stuff to. He's a
Oh, thank god.
I'm taking all of his stuff,
taking all his money. from what I
Oh, yeah.
confuses me for a member of
staff.
Yeah. I can't remember if I brought it up last time, but there was um
I The more I keep playing this, the more people just keep saying that this game is either best with a full party of four or solo.
I would say solo. I I don't think I could play this game like with just like me or you and like like me and Ally.
Yeah. Like so like when me and Ally played it,
I had played the game
and I had already beaten it.
Yeah. And with you, I've already played and I've already beaten it. So like I don't want to go through and be like, "Oh, I know what I'm doing." And like run off and just do all these things
and just just take off and be like, "Oh, we got to do this. Oh, we got to do this. Oh, this I did this mission and to beat this mission, we need to do this really quick." And like it helps. Like things like that. I was like, I don't want to do that because then it it dampers your fun in the game.
Sure. Yeah.
Um I think the other thing is
is when you're playing solo, you have three members that you get to interact with of your party and you get you get more story.
Um versus I mean, we're missing half of that because I can't interact with the people that are tied to you.
Yep. Um, and I can't interact with you. Uh, so it becomes a lot more mechanical like in terms of like the gameplay and stuff. Uh, I mean, I'm a level 9 fighter. Yeah, that's not the most extravagant build in the world. It's very, very basic and that's exactly what I wanted to do. Uh, this is a character I wanted to make. And I understand that there's a lot more to be done. Like we've seen so many shields and cool weapons. That would be neat. But yeah, I don't know.
I've seen uh I've seen some things like if you're wanting to play the game
and uh
dude, come
like with like multiple people.
Yeah.
You don't play your own charact like you don't play a character you build. You play one of the actual NPC characters. Well, I've heard that even if you do play as an origin character, you still they don't talk. Like, you just get specific uh dialogue options.
Really?
Yeah.
That's weird.
Uh what the hell?
They have all the dialogue.
They have all the dialogue forms. Like, I don't know why they wouldn't.
Okay. Well, apparently my game bugged. Oh, here we go. this morning. What will it be?
I was like locked into a
I'm just going to I don't even know. Just like I don't [ __ ] know what to do. Um hold on. I'm actually filled my inventory cuz we're actually going to be able to find people to sell things to. So like
Oh, you Oh, you went back to camp. Yeah, I know. My
I have a bunch of these rings that I don't It's like
There you go.
No.
Um some of the other like h some of the uh houses, not houses, the buildings around here, they also have uh have uh things to you on the inside. So, I mean that would be
Is there is there any reason to hold on to these gems?
Like,
no, those those are just money. Like, it is just a thing to sell to get money.
Gotcha. Okay, that makes sense. Where is Where is it? I don't see it.
Where is it?
No, I thought I had um Scratch's ball. You might have put it inside the uh inside your chest
maybe.
Oh, no. You got it. I see it in your inventory.
Well,
it's in there
cuz I don't.
It's a red uh thing. It has a purple outline and it's red.
Where is it?
Oh, no, not purple. Sorry. Orange. I There's a purple. The [ __ ] dark amethyst is above it. So I saw purple and was like purple. It's the uh orange outline and then the ball is red. Sure. There you go. There's a bunch of rings now, dude.
Come back soon.
Oh, you know what it might have been? It might have been Yep, there it is. Okay. It just wasn't showing that I could sell it because I I wasn't seeing it in in the barter thing.
Okay, cool.
So, right now it would just be to start going into these buildings
and just start talking to the people that are there cuz there there are side missions in here.
Um but there's not any main missions in here. I really want to do Asterion's thing that's not in this area yet. That's when we get into the main
the main building.
Okay.
So, this is like the market.
Yeah. Jiara has a a thing for her. This is not the market. This is just like coming into the city. Like people who don't have a city, like they don't go into the city. Um this is just like the outside skirts of it. Okay. Looks great.
Yeah. I mean, I like the idea. It's almost like the idea of like what the original like actual like London Bridge inside Europe.
Got actually used to be
cuz it used to be there's people living on it and [ __ ] like that.
I'm sure the Steel Watcher will react.
Oh, there's the Harpers. We can go. Yeah, that's what we that's that's Jar's thing to
it will soon start acting on its own will.
Let's go. Let me
Hey, hey, hey, people.
Welcome to
Come on.
The tracking on this thing [ __ ] sucks. I clicked the stairs and it made me go under the stairs.
All right, let me talk to this old man. God, he looks like Kyle's dad.
He does.
Your noble bearing brings a
Oh, you can turn off the charm and he's with me.
Blueberries thought I had a sale.
You look tired.
Nice. Nice camera angle.
I missed you, too. They're already here.
Here's the key.
That's so stupid.
All right. Uh, pleased to meet you, Harper. and thr I don't
Are you my dad? Your armor set looks pretty cool.
Yeah, I like it. Looks pretty neat. I don't remember. I don't remember what I'm wearing.
Sword, so I'll assume the insult was accidental.
And no, Harper and claims no love for those who are, but he's been known to shelter us when we need it.
Entire has been known to charge.
Entire.
Harpers have been known to ignore him. Now go on. The short father may send me an actual paying customer today
to buy. You're already my favorite.
Oh, I'm not buying anything, man.
I'm
I'm very Yeah, you're Yeah, you're selling.
I'm keep that helmet.
Oh. I'm assuming you have the key.
The key for
Okay.
Yes.
There you go. Got it.
Uh, be careful going too far, I will say.
Oh, really? Okay.
Yeah. Got to finish the job. Got to kill the rest of the Harpers.
That one. Yeah, that's you. You're not far off. You're not far off. I will say that. Uh movement helmet. That one. That. Yeah. I think what like all those people that are glowing I think that's whenever I get near them cuz everyone now has that steeped in bliss and I have no idea where that's coming from. Yeah. Um I'm not sure what it is either. I just keep on seeing it on there.
Think that's all I want. And balance this offer. Cool. You do have some items. What items do you have? Just in case I wanted it. He does have a displacement cape.
I want it.
Yeah. I was like, you're going to want that one. Oh, wait. I do have a cape. Oh, it's the cloak of elemental absorption, which I don't believe I've ever used.
Oh, how much is that cloak?
Uh, 475.
Okay. There are a few really good uh arrows in here also.
Just uh letting you know.
Okay.
Like they have the human humanoid slain one,
a dragon slain one.
Okay. And they have a different
Are you having the use bows or uh
something else?
Uh he has been using a bow. His It's actually a long bow plus one. That's what he's been working with.
There's one There's one in here you actually might want to buy for him.
Okay,
let's get going.
Well,
[ __ ] quit talking to this guy.
I'm I'm I'm doing it.
Hey, I heard you have some cool stuff. I wouldn't keep your contact waiting. Look to my Twitchy
unless you're buying. Then he can wait till the soul forge goes dark.
That's the plan. Okay. You're like, "Dad, the gauntlets of the war master
targets have a dis." Okay.
I wouldn't keep
Don't know. It just like took me out of it. That's annoying.
Then he can wait till this fall.
You're talking about the blightbringer.
Attacking gnomes or dwarves.
What the [ __ ]
Okay, hold on. Sorry. Uh, I guess that's me kicking you out.
I click a but I click space bar to move over to move away unless your body
and it just keeps kicking me out. So, I'm just not going to touch anything.
Okay. I'm like, what is happening? Hey, Grim Skull's helm. I have that. And he only has 117 gold left. Let's see. Uh, cloak of displacement. I mean, that's really good. I'm gonna buy that. I do like the gauntlets of the Warm Master. That is pretty awesome. Um, targets have disadvantage on saving throws against your maneuver and weapon actions and gives me attack plus one. That's 4,000 though. That's insane.
That is insane. I almost want to arrow of dragon slaying, humanoid slaying. I mean, that's going to be huge. I will buy these potions of superior healing. Uh, do we need a scroll of revivify?
No, I have a ton.
Okay,
I say a ton. I think I have like five or six. H. That should be good enough.
I mean, we don't die that often.
We don't die die that often. I should say
the horns of the Berserker.
Yeah, if you're
That's gain plus two bonus to attack rolls when attacking creatures that have already taken damage.
Oh, that is pretty good.
That's pretty solid. I might unarmed and melee attacks will deal an extra tunic as long as you don't have your full health. Cool. Yeah. Let's go ahead. Oh, it only sells for 27. Nice. And then let's see.
Try and counteract this. Finally spending some money.
Yeah, right.
It feels nice. I always feel like I'm spending money because I'm just like reading scrolls and like using up all my money on the scrolls.
Yeah. Yeah. And I know I have a bunch of stuff in the um I might have to go back to camp and uh sell these willing mines. Don't think I'll need those. Um what did I put on him? He has a million. So yeah, long bow plus one. That is that blight. Um, let's see. Four to 11 damage. I mean, that's literally it. No, that's for you, though. That's not for Aarian.
No, the longbowow plus one.
Yeah, that's the uh Oh, just the plus one. like just the the one that was like the red the rare. Is that the one you're looking at?
Yeah.
Um it's mainly the add-on cuz you also get an extra D4 attack, but that's also your that's also your stats with it. Not a stair.
I I saw that. Yeah. Uh let's see. Yeah, I'm probably going to get some of this money back from all the [ __ ] I'm selling. It'd be kind of cool if you could do like new game plus and then like hold on to the stuff that's in your chest for your for the people um like for your next playthrough.
Yeah. But like at the same time like imagine at the very end keeping all like your highle stuff then tossing it.
Oh, I know. I'm well aware
for that for there's certain games it's like okay yeah that makes sense why why you do that with but then there's some that you're just like
did you see that supreme elixir of arcane cultivation
oh I guess I did not
gain an additional level four spell slot
oh that's really nice um all right I think balance offer There's a lot of money, but I'm okay. So,
now back to camp.
I'm going to need to Yeah, so I can sell some stuff. But let's see. Send this to Asterion. Now I can have
that. What do I look like with that? I look stupid.
I look that
crawler mucus. So, I didn't even see that. Send that to Asterion. Put on this cape. And what is that? Katherine's Nether Stone. That's what he kept on his pee pee.
It was his cockpiece. You were right. There's a super
All right. Where's my chest? Super
small cockpiece. It's in there somewhere. It's like right outside the doors.
Right next to Carlac, who is still naked.
Who is still naked? Yeah. Yeah. I'm just going to leave her that way.
Unless I need her on my team. Well, I say that. I just sold off most of the stuff that I probably would have Well, no. Actually, I kept the swords that she had. I didn't want to get rid of those. Okay, there we go. Drake ch. Yeah, I have so many different types of weapons on me. Oh, there's a spear of night. Do we need that?
I don't think so.
Okay, not anymore. I don't think. Okay.
Where the [ __ ] that was my
armor?
Hey, I'm here to get pretty much all my money back.
I wouldn't unless Oh, I'm like, what is what am I wearing? Hold on. It like equipped. I'm like, uh, that is
that is not my gold armor, sir.
Yeah. Um. Ah, [ __ ] Okay, let's equip that. And Damn it. Where is it? Yeah, that gave me misty step. Great. No. Oh, there it is. Was that poisoner's gloves? Nope, that was not it. That was also quote the raven. There we go. And I sure [ __ ] don't have don't have a ranged weapon on me.
Just want to make sure that I have everything that I need to. Okay, now I should be good.
Yeah, I thought the game glitched. I was like, what the hell?
Then he can wait till the soul forge goes dark.
Okay, I'm assuming there's nothing I'm going to have that you're going to want.
No, I don't believe so.
Okay. Oh, okay. Well, everything I'm selling is already over. How much he uh um how much he has in gold, which is actually nice cuz then that means I can get those. Can I because I use maneuvers, right?
Um,
yeah, I think so.
I think so. Yeah. Yeah, that that's what the goating and stuff like that is.
Okay. Yes. Okay, that would be pretty good for me. Then balance offer. I can do that. I will have 87 gold left.
What do you think? You think I'm going to need gold for anything?
Um, I think we do here in a bit. Uh, or not like we do need it, but like we'll we'll make it back. Okay, nailed it. I mean, I was holding on to a bunch. I'm assuming if you have like really high charisma then uh then like you can you can actually like try and like like trade or barter that actually goes a little bit further.
Yeah, there's a different way. I don't know.
You can modify their attributes or their uh attitude.
A pleasure.
There is a way to do it, but I just don't know what it is.
Gotcha.
Well, hello.
Well, hello. There you go. wasion onion. Is that a short bow? Oh, and yeah. So, I just opened up while you were doing that, I was opening up One Piece cards.
Yep.
I had some [ __ ] bangers.
Some bangers.
Some [ __ ] bangers, dude. Nice.
I don't know what the hell.
Can I like move these? No.
There we go. All right. Yes, I think I am good to go.
Okay. I have some spaces in my action bar and I don't like it.
Yeah. Uh I upgraded, not upgraded. I moved some of my stuff around
and now like mine has like some empty and like weird looking spaces and I'm like h wait. What's that? Oh yeah, my gauntlets of the war master. H Oh wait, now I I need to dye them. How do I dye them?
You need to die. And I think you just got to click the dye to them. Dang it. What dye did I use to make gold?
Yellow something probably.
No, because you would think you would think it it it is that. But it's not.
Yeah, you would think. Huh?
I wouldn't. Unless you're buying, then he can wait till the soul forge goes dark.
Then the S forge goes dark. Yeah. And I don't think he has any dye. I know someone does.
Yeah, there's a guy outside who did.
Yep. Just going to clean up some of my inventory. Okay.
A pleasure.
All right. Yep. Hold on.
I look ridiculous now.
Yeah, you do.

He's like, "Oh, you're going to buy my paintings." And you're just like, "Give me your paint."
Yeah. Hold on. I need to look it up. Um, what dye makes gold? Balders gate three. There it is.
Black and furnace red. I wonder if it was like Oh, I was like, "What the hell?" Okay. How much is that? Oh, good. Die is like basically free. It's one gold.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Well, some of it is. Um, deep lilac dye. I'll try that balance offer. Okay.
Okay. So, now

I don't think it was the deep lilac. Where is it? Red dye. Okay, so red apparently makes uh silver.
Okay, that because that makes sense.
Yep. Yep. Oh, okay. Well, just so you know, lilac lilac makes gold,
but I did get it. So, it only cost me 17 gold. Now I I just I don't know why it

I just look like Loki meeting.
A very formal greeting. Geraldos,
you are well.
Yes. High Harper, standing beneath Saluna's tears.
The lad's a little nervous. Jihira. We heard of your great victory against Kethic.
I understand. Galdos. Take a moment. And you, Harper? There is something familiar about you? Doesn't she remind you of our old friend Marcus?
Who?
Jira's meaning is clear. Marcus was a traitor laying a trap.
The same, it seems, is happening here.
The [ __ ] is Marcus? Oh,
okay.
There he is.
The one guy that the guy with what? Marcus had wings.
Yeah. Wasn't that the guy? Yeah. I mean, he had like he had like bow and [ __ ] Like, wasn't he the guy that that attacked uh
Katherine's daughter?
Yeah, I think so.
Okay.
Um Yeah. You're like just Oh,
everyone on the streets ran even though we're downstairs.
Yeah, they did through walls. They're like Well, hey, that bow's already paying off cuz she's basically almost dead. I'll be right back.
I'm going to go see what's in this heavy chest. Hey, there's a scroll of IBY and a scroll of sunbeam I'm going to send your way.
Sick.
There you go.
Oh, hey, he's on our side.
Yeah, the the guy in this Yeah, that guy we were talking to is on our side.
Good. Hey, they're all surprised. All right. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, she's super dead pretty much.
Press ahead. Can I get to her? I can. Ah, interesting. Okay, Jira. See, what are we going to do?
Whoa. What is on me?
Displaced.
Oh, that's my cloak. Yeah. Uh, yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. You're like, hell yeah, dude. At the beginning of the wearer's turn, cloak activates, granting enemies disadvantage. Oh yeah, that's pretty great on top of my AC of 19 and the fact I can't be critted.
Harper Thos.
Yeah, sorry Jihira. Uh your your Harpers don't exist anymore.
Yeah, well these Harpers are bad Harpers. They're bad people.
Well, they're also [ __ ] freaks.
Yeah, they're all about to die.
Let's see.
Yeah, I guess I'm just going to drop hopefully drop this one.
Oh, god.
Loser. H I'm just going to stand here and cry. Oh, that's why I don't have Oh, man. Uh earlier I equipped I equipped a uh a different staff, the one that gives me a bunch of the strength
because I was like, "Oh man,
I have uh I'm over encumbered bringing all that armor or all that random [ __ ] to the guy the cell."
Yeah. And I forgot to put my good asterion on. Oh god. Oh wow. Oh jeez.
And whenever you fail the same Oh,
we're now ambushed.
Oh no.
Oh god. No. Ambush
prone. She
What a dumb hoe.
Let's see. What do I want to do? Um,
Damn it.
Oh, hold on. Hold on. I got I might be able to do something.
[ __ ] Jiara.
Yeah, I I pushed him under the fire.
That's so good. That's so That's so good. All right, Jar doesn't have I guess I can
I'm actually very happy with that.
Besides that attack, she can't do anything to help out.
Uh Harper Lee uh will definitely be dead if that's magic missile. At
least it should be. I'm going to do three just in case.
Honor.
Yep.
Yeah. Okay. It would have been one.
Yeah.
If I only did the two.
Watch this.
Oh, yeah. Nice.
Yeah, I punched her.
And she's shot in the throat.
Has won their loyalty, it seems.
Nice. Mer's mark.
I don't know what's happening right now anymore. Are things just burning?
Yeah, I think things are just blowing up.
What the hell are these things?
Uh, zoles. I think they're b they're basically just uh the doppelgangers. Oh,
okay. Well, there's a kill. You won't have to wear those Harper smiles much longer. Orin has given the order. Kill the crone, but not before you tell her how her little soldiers died. Preserve some hair or sineu if you can. The chosen would like to strip a harp of her own. String a harp of her own. Okay, there we go.
Wow,
that was the kill order.
So cool.
All right, you can go talk to that guy.
Oh yeah, I guess you can. You should.
Did I Did I get it right?
Saloon tears. It is said no false face can stand beneath their light. An old code, Harper. But yes, you got it right. Now I need your report.
We had eyes on suspected cultists in the city like you asked.
He does look like Loki.
But
he does
tracking you instead. Evidently doppelgangers.
And they're not just working with the cult. High Harper. They're part of it. Ballists. I think
answering to or in the red then go on.
Everything seemed fine until your latest orders until we started to search for the Rajimal. They struck the same night. I woke to one of them strangling Kelvin while smiling at me out of her face. She said
that's terrifying.
That would be so awful watching one of your friends strangle your other friend.
No. Was it Was it not like
Oh, I I took it as like his friend was being strangled by a doppelganger of his friend smiling.
Yeah, that's what I mean. Like
others were likely dragged back to orange.
Yeah.
It sounds like the doppelganger turned into that person as like they were strangling at this guy. Yeah.
I do not expect horrifying,
right? But to risk Enthal, any citizen who might have wandered in, there is always a choice. And the Harper must be able to make the hard ones. Perhaps this isn't the life for you after all, Geraldus.
No, Jihira. Hi, Harper. Please. I'm still a Harper. I want to help.
You've scarcely signed up, boy. And there is a war coming. Why die a Harper when you could still live as anything else.
Um,
you think so?
I mean, you can do whatever option you want. It's your character. That's That's the one I think though.
No, he can make his own choice. He's
a big boy for all of them. So it means something.
Death is death. To look for meaning in it is foolishness, boy.
Childish storybook nonsense. Exactly the kind the Harper Wood spout, I suppose.
Fine.
I have no right to make the choice for you. Not when this mess is of my making. I sent the Harpers hunting after the cult without thinking what it would mean to be hunted in turn. Now they are compromised and if not for you I wouldn't even know it.
Yay. Jiara approves.
I'm sorry Geraldos Harper.
He like looked super uncomfortable.
On second thought I kind of want to leave now.
First Geraldos. You're the last Harper in the city I can rely on. Lay low and rest while you can. I have matters to discuss with my friend here.
Is that me? Am I her friend?
It uh it could be me.
No,
it's not. It's not me.
Hey, I'll take some holy water and some grease.
You know what I should have done? Did theion have
mine potion? Oh, he does have a potion
of superior healing.
He never giant strength and
remedy potion. Yay! Where' you
Where'd you go?
I went up above us.
Oh, there's there's a ladder there. Okay.
Yeah.
Oh, hey. What's up?
Okay.
A nice little sex cage.
Yeah. Watch this.
Hey, y'all. Water. Take a bath. You're like, "Yeah, I was like, you're like, watch this." Throw me off the edge of the the [ __ ] cliff.
Yeah, I just pick you up and toss you off. Um,
I'm not playing this game.
Okay. Well, I think that's a good place to stop uh right now. Um, so we'll continue in act three. You have I have no idea what's going to happen next. So stick around for the rest of the series. Like, comment, share, and subscribe. And have a wonderful whatever time of day it is for you.
