00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,000
Scrap! Scrap! Scrap! I gotta tell you about this website I found, Hero Forge, where you

2
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,000
can customize your own miniatures!

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:16,000
I know, I told Ayg about it. Isn't it cool? How they have both sci-fi, post-apocalyptic,

4
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,000
and they have fantasy pieces.

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,000
And the creator is so fun, I could mess about in there making little guys forever.

6
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,000
Yeah, but if you like one, you can order it painted or unpainted.

7
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:31,000
Did you hear? You can now customize their faces!

8
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:36,000
Even the small details like the eyes and the nose! I only wish that you could pick the color of the standee!

9
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:41,000
You totally can, dude! It's so rad, you literally click and drag the color onto your figure

10
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,000
like you're virtually painting it!

11
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:47,000
Hey, you know what would be perfect? Is if we make the crew in and make them kiss!

12
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,000
Started a campaign with the crew?

13
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:50,000
What?

14
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,000
I thought we were on the same page there. That's my bad.

15
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,000
Wait, did you say something about getting the crew to kiss?

16
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:02,000
No, no, no, no, it's another one. Inazariaka just stressing me out. It doesn't matter.

17
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,000
Alright, don't worry about it, it's fine.

18
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,000
Okay, I'm gonna go.

19
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,000
Alright.

20
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,000
Good talk.

21
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,000
Bye!

22
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,000
Hey there, Adam and the Sea Travelers. It's Nordina Lee, the voice of our envoy, Azzam.

23
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:27,000
You know, when we set out to start the show, I built him drawing from my own family's history of coerced displacement

24
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:31,000
as well as drawing from other histories with similar themes.

25
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:36,000
Listening to Azzam's history of rebellion, of having his home planet be colonized,

26
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:43,000
it may be a bit harder than usual today, considering the recent surge of awareness in many real world struggles.

27
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:48,000
Just remember to listen responsibly, and if you need to take a break, hit that pause button.

28
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:54,000
And we'll be right here waiting for you to return when you feel ready to set sail again.

29
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,000
Stay safe out there.

30
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:07,000
You've never experienced cold quite like this, Azzam.

31
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:23,000
If you listen really carefully, you can almost hear the sizzling speed cooling of your own skin as you walk inside of the Surt Energy Mining Facility.

32
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:30,000
You've never been in one of these before, not really, not without blowing a hole in one of them first.

33
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,000
And you haven't blown a hole in this facility.

34
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:42,000
You're barely armed. You have such little guard that you feel a little naked.

35
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:49,000
The mercenaries that work for Surt Energy, they haven't fared well against the Ifriti people.

36
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:59,000
They've been on your planet on Irim for around five years, and the effect of the planet's cooling is being felt to a drastic degree.

37
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:05,000
But you were winning. You forced them to leave. You destroyed their machines, their systems.

38
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,000
They were all on the back foot.

39
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:18,000
Until recently. Surt Energy contacted the Galactic Armed Forces, the Ulf Hestnar, on terms of defense against you.

40
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:26,000
They arrived last month in a Bifrost ship, almost blocks out the sun.

41
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:34,000
You've been contacted by the leader of this unit, Captain Mongolia Cole, not yet a general.

42
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:40,000
She has asked you to meet to offer a truce.

43
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:51,000
You walk down the hall, guarded, flanked by either end by your own team.

44
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:59,000
But amongst this crowd, there are also Heth.

45
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:04,000
You arrive just before the doors to this meeting room.

46
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,000
I speak in my own language to my people.

47
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:16,000
Hive isn't here specifically so I could avoid using any of the languages I struggle with.

48
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:23,000
I instead stick to my own when I say, remember, we have a plan.

49
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,000
They've brought us here.

50
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:32,000
Which means that you have total run of a place, so long as you're careful enough.

51
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:36,000
Trust your gut.

52
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:49,000
I reach out and without looking at them, I squeeze the hand of a tall, masculine Ifriti like myself.

53
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:55,000
But with shorter curved horns. My partner in all this.

54
00:04:55,000 --> 00:05:06,000
The blue flames rise a little bit as you grip hands.

55
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:12,000
They have a weapon to their side.

56
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:24,000
But Malice isn't grabbing it, but has it for protection purposes.

57
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,000
All right, Senator, it's all on you.

58
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,000
I've been a senator for a while. Ambassador.

59
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,000
I think.

60
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,000
All right. On your command.

61
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:41,000
When things go south, they will.

62
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:46,000
You know how fireworks. And with that, I walk through the door.

63
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:55,000
A woman sits on the other end of this large meeting table.

64
00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:03,000
Elvin, she has this shaved head.

65
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:15,000
No armor on in a almost professional business attire.

66
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:25,000
But with these medals and badges on her left side.

67
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:34,000
As the doors open, you see that she's writing something on a holo pad and she looks up.

68
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,000
Hello.

69
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:42,000
You are Azarm Amir.

70
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:46,000
That is who you asked to speak to, is it not?

71
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,000
Yes, it is.

72
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:57,000
And you are. I'm sorry, I don't do well with trade titles. General. Captain.

73
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,000
Captain.

74
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:03,000
Captain. Magnolia Cole.

75
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:09,000
Captain Cole is fine. Please, sit.

76
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:16,000
Of course. And rather than sitting at the other end of the table, he walks up and sits quite close.

77
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:23,000
It's not like directly beside the other head where Magnolia is, but just one seat back.

78
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,000
Thank you for coming today.

79
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:36,000
I appreciate your readiness to talk.

80
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:45,000
I have brought you here because we would rather things not go too big.

81
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:56,000
We have already had a lot of bloodshed on this planet and I feel, we feel, it is enough.

82
00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:01,000
We would like to offer a truce.

83
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:08,000
You will allow CERD Energy the space that they have already.

84
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:17,000
And in return, we will offer you a ship.

85
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:21,000
Not quite a Bifrost, but state of the art nonetheless.

86
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:35,000
Big enough for the Ifriti people to travel system to system and also free and open trade with the Galactic Union.

87
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:43,000
Forgive me for struggling with understanding your language. It's maybe my fourth.

88
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:55,000
But it seems to myself that your offer, as you put it, is displacing us.

89
00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:03,000
That is your gift, correct? A ship so we can go somewhere else.

90
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:17,000
If I am not mistaken, your people, the Ifritis, are natural nomads.

91
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:24,000
After some time, you would leave this planet anyway on ships of your own.

92
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:34,000
We are merely offering to allow you to start this and have a wider net.

93
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:56,000
CERD Energy will have this, the majority of this planet, as a means to help protect and develop the rest of this system and beyond.

94
00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:05,000
I'm not sure if you're aware, but CERD Energy is very important for the galaxy.

95
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:14,000
I am aware of many businesses' interests in CERD and dependence upon it, yes.

96
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:30,000
Which is the reason why you got sent here. Because last I checked, this is in a war between two civilizations, peoples.

97
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:41,000
This is a company coming to my planet, breaking every single promise they ever made.

98
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:53,000
Violating treaty after treaty, taking land after land, cooling this place to an unnatural degree, and now attempting to evict us.

99
00:10:53,000 --> 00:11:08,000
Before this planet's life cycle is complete, I have seen CERD's former planets. I have seen those so-called developments. I have seen dust.

100
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:20,000
So make no mistake, if you wish to... compromise after bringing me here under gunned guard, fine.

101
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:31,000
But the compromise will not exclude us from our own home until such time as we decide to leave it.

102
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:49,000
You have admirability. You have a desire to help and protect. That is one that the Ulf Hefnar's values, that's part of our creed.

103
00:11:49,000 --> 00:12:06,000
But you do not speak for all of the Afriti people. Many of them have agreed to work in CERD energy facilities and have expressed interest in open trade.

104
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:29,000
Out of fear and desperation, may I remind you that due to your cooling of this planet, my sincere apologies, due to CERD energy's cooling of this planet, many of our normal, traditional ways of life have been ruined and thus our economy is collapsing as we speak.

105
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:34,000
Which a ship, to be honest, will not solve.

106
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:38,000
But the open trade deals with the rest of the galaxy.

107
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:45,000
And what will we have left to trade without a planet to trade from? Our bodies?

108
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:54,000
What you speak of is a company planet, a prison planet.

109
00:12:54,000 --> 00:13:05,000
Yes, I do not speak for all Ifrit people, as Ifrit is the plural. I speak for many, though, more than you.

110
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:19,000
And I see the fear and desperation, knowing our way of life is collapsing, knowing our way of life is ending, no matter what we decide here today.

111
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:26,000
I will not let my people lose what little they have.

112
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:31,000
I cannot.

113
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:53,000
A planet owned by a single company I understand you feel is untoward and undesirable. However, many have grown and prospered. Saga, there is the Nert Noir royalty.

114
00:13:53,000 --> 00:14:09,000
Glonnie in Nidavella, Eli in Nidavella have the same. Saga, a planet with such a distinct class separation that those on the bottom are never heard from by those up above.

115
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Or perhaps you speak of Nos, a planet so ruined that only dust remains on the surface.

116
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:24,000
Oh, I know. I have studied. I have prepared for your...

117
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:29,000
Certs, Enterprises.

118
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:42,000
You cannot convince me of your goodwill because I know you have none. You speak today for a corporation that only exists to gather wealth.

119
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,000
Wealth from my planet.

120
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:54,000
The wealth we need to enter the galaxy of our own free will, not beholden to you.

121
00:14:54,000 --> 00:15:01,000
Let's be frank. You did not come here.

122
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:06,000
You did not come here to speak.

123
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:15,000
Armist deal. You came here to make it seem as if you had so you can go back and tell the rest of your...

124
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:20,000
Council...

125
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:27,000
That they might as well send more battalions to hurt us.

126
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,000
So...

127
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:33,000
I will leave you to your warfare.

128
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:40,000
But know that no matter if I win or if I lose...

129
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:46,000
You will lose in the end, Miss Magnolia Cole.

130
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,000
Do you know why?

131
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,000
Because this is your life now.

132
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:59,000
This is what you'll do. Planet after planet you will see nothing but death and destruction.

133
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:07,000
And all you'll be left with as your legacy is empty promises and lies.

134
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:14,000
And one day you will wish to be freed from it.

135
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:19,000
Thank you for...

136
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,000
Honestly, thank you for nothing.

137
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,000
Excuse me.

138
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:35,000
And with like an audible groan and cracks of his own body, Azzam gets up, nods sardonically, and begins to walk out of the room.

139
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,000
But before I do, as I turn around...

140
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:45,000
I'd like to do a little sleight of hand, if I may.

141
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:51,000
Because there is a beautiful pistol on Magnolia's hip.

142
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:57,000
And that 20. So I think altogether that's 29?

143
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:05,000
It's not on her. I'd say it's a little easier because it's like it's almost hanging on a...

144
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,000
Yeah, on the chair between us, right?

145
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:12,000
Yeah, like on a clip next to her rather than being on her person.

146
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,000
I lean over as I say thank you for nothing.

147
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:20,000
And as I get halfway to the door, I brandish the pistol.

148
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:24,000
Shoot the table and keep walking.

149
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,000
She truly doesn't move.

150
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:37,000
She stays still as the gunshot goes off.

151
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:43,000
The people who the Ulfhethna next to you like raise weapons.

152
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:51,000
Your small team takes them out, Melis firing and taking out a few of them.

153
00:17:51,000 --> 00:18:03,000
And as you turn to sprint down the hall, the doors attempt to close behind you but are stuck on an Ulfhethna body as this firefight is going on.

154
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:14,000
You turn to see her sat in the same position unmoving as you all run watching you leave.

155
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:22,000
The screams showing temperature.

156
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:27,000
Daily events for CERT Energy. Some small advertisements.

157
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:41,000
They all shift and flick following you down the hall showing your face on a large propaganda poster.

158
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:48,000
You in this angry snarl.

159
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:53,000
And the words, beware the firebrand.

160
00:18:53,000 --> 00:19:06,000
As we exit, I make a detour to where the energy facilities are kept.

161
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:12,000
And I overheat the flames before I finally leave.

162
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:17,000
Firebrand indeed.

163
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:35,000
As you watch the flames and the smolders and the small amounts of devastation that you and your team have left behind in the firefight, you got out with your team uninjured.

164
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:43,000
But as you watch this scene, the burning and the bodies,

165
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:49,000
we cut back to newmores.

166
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:54,000
The same flames burn in this cathedral.

167
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,000
The bodies strewn.

168
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:01,000
These bodies don't die.

169
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:12,000
The, beware the firebrand posters replaced with, love the light.

170
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:24,000
And not sat watching you down the hall, but a large crackle and movement of an elevator far, far off in the distance.

171
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:38,000
You see moving down some new arrivals who you know is now General Magnolia Cole.

172
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:56,000
You all are ferried and hurried away back into a, the carriage that Aphrodite had taken you around in all day.

173
00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:06,000
You can still hear some moans of undying screams in the background as the door shuts, cutting out all of the noise of the outside.

174
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:10,000
The car drives away.

175
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:29,000
And arrives near, near the cathedral where you, where this firefight went down, is a large, very regal ornate mansion.

176
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:43,000
These two gargoyles flank either end as these gates open and with your small, like entourage of carriages arrive in.

177
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:47,000
Stops outside of this mansion.

178
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:56,000
Someone, not Samson. Samson was waiting at the, at the cathedral, finishing out the firefight.

179
00:21:56,000 --> 00:22:03,000
Another wellness officer comes and opens up the door to the, to the carriage.

180
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:10,000
I am sorry for the, for the firefight, please.

181
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:18,000
Inside of this mansion is perfectly safe. This is the, the director's quarters, their house, they live here, they have set up rooms for you already.

182
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:23,000
You will be perfectly safe inside of the manor.

183
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:27,000
Is this place?

184
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:36,000
Sorry, places like this just fix my alarm bells all the time. It's a bit oppressive, right?

185
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,000
Such as me.

186
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:52,000
Out of another car door, you hear the exaggerated wails of a, of an actress as Venus steps out and says, oh my god!

187
00:22:52,000 --> 00:23:01,000
I am so sorry that that was the first, the first show of our beautiful city to you all.

188
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:05,000
Thank you. I'm so, so glad that you are all safe.

189
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:09,000
Hello. Hi. We didn't formally introduce ourselves.

190
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:13,000
I'm so sorry. I'm, I'm all worked up.

191
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:17,000
But it's so nice. It's so nice to see. It's so nice to meet you all.

192
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:22,000
Good to go inside. I hope you, I hope you're all okay. Is everyone, is there any scratches on anyone? Is everyone good?

193
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,000
Just emotionally, I think.

194
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,000
Just imposing.

195
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:35,000
Oh, you sweet poor thing. Yes. No, it's very intense. It's, I, I, I do hope that you, that, that you are all okay.

196
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:42,000
When were you planning on telling us that?

197
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:49,000
I, well, I didn't, we didn't think that anything like this would happen.

198
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:55,000
Not, definitely not during a sermon. Those things are normally very sacred and people don't, don't do that.

199
00:23:55,000 --> 00:24:00,000
This is, this is very new to us. Please don't, I'm, I'm sorry. I'm just so worked up at the minute.

200
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:06,000
I understand that you would be too. This is, it's a very distressing evening.

201
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:12,000
Don't worry. We have your rooms available and you have all, each an en suite.

202
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:21,000
And there is, we have some charcuteries that will be ready and some fun games. We'll have a nice night.

203
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:29,000
We are safe inside of here and we will get you all, all situated and fine. I'm, I'm so, so sorry again.

204
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,000
I cannot, I cannot imagine the stress.

205
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:35,000
I do love a bit of charcuterie and fun games.

206
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:43,000
Yes, it'll be, it should be fun. Okay, sorry. I'm just so, I'm all out of sorts.

207
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:52,000
Oh, we've, we've seen worse. Does this happen often? You know, if you've seen this.

208
00:24:52,000 --> 00:25:04,000
Well, it's been a bit, a bit more lately, but normally it's, it's purely, and then there is a hearty cough.

209
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:09,000
And Venus turns, Aphrodite stands prim and proper behind her.

210
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:13,000
Venus, darling, we don't want to be bothering our guests.

211
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:20,000
I understand that this was a little more intense, but please, we will save the descriptions for later.

212
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:25,000
Oh, of course. Okay. Thank you. I need a shower after that.

213
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:29,000
She runs in.

214
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:39,000
I do apologize to all of you. That was not the best look of our, on our city.

215
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,000
Please come follow me in.

216
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:48,000
As everyone begins to get the car, she turns to Theriac, founder.

217
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:55,000
I am desperately sorry that this happened whilst you visited, especially on the first day.

218
00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:09,000
Things like this are rare, but we understand that people in cities, they're just some troublemakers, some quite bad eggs.

219
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:15,000
I do not want it to disrupt your time here. I apologize.

220
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:24,000
I truly don't think my compatriot's question was answered earlier.

221
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,000
Of course.

222
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:34,000
We have had some,

223
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:46,000
some people with ill intent in the Undying Ridges who occasionally, yes, do

224
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:54,000
things which are ill advised, unbecoming of our city.

225
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:57,000
It doesn't happen a lot. It doesn't happen often.

226
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,000
And especially not during sermons.

227
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:04,000
I do apologize, founder, deeply.

228
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,000
Aphrodite answered my question, right?

229
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:11,000
Did she even look at me once when answering it? Was it directly?

230
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,000
No way. Not even a little.

231
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,000
I fucking hate this place. It sucks.

232
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:17,000
You're not the only one.

233
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:21,000
This is the bad place.

234
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:37,000
And Theriac, please know, there are some people who are arriving who are not here to help with this situation, but we are going to organize a meeting to try.

235
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:46,000
I know that you have some Ulfhethnar amongst your ranks for protection and we are calling in.

236
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:56,000
We haven't called in more, but they are coming and we will ask to help with our little problem here.

237
00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:01,000
There are some Ulfhethnar who are on their way.

238
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:18,000
No, they were not called by us. They are coming for unrelated purposes, but much like the blessing of you coming, whilst we have some business that we would like to engage in, we are hoping the same for these visitors of ours.

239
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,000
Why?

240
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,000
Why?

241
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,000
Why are the Ulfhethnar coming?

242
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,000
That they have yet to disclose.

243
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:36,000
We haven't answered questions here today, including the question that my compatriot asked earlier.

244
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,000
When were you going to tell us?

245
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,000
Yeah.

246
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,000
Give me a date and a time.

247
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,000
Date and time.

248
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:51,000
During our meeting, later today, we were going to approach the topic.

249
00:28:51,000 --> 00:29:00,000
We did not think that there would be any form of attack during your stay. Your stay was just as unannounced.

250
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:11,000
You turned up on our door. If you were to give us more heads up, then perhaps there would have been more decorum when it comes to this.

251
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:29,000
But because we wanted to house you and use this, per chance, luck of you arriving here, we wanted to push ahead and make sure all of this is above board.

252
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:45,000
In our meeting later, there will be questions answered, asked of us too, and I do hope that this does not mean that there will not be a positive relationship between Freyr Incorporated and Wild Times.

253
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:51,000
I'm terribly sorry, but I think there may be some complications with that.

254
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:58,000
I look at the Theriak and it's like Ozan looks scared.

255
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:10,000
I would like for Theriak and Ozan, probably, because Ozan did notice this in our last session, that all of this heated growing attention on us,

256
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:33,000
I has been quiet and is looking very aware of her wanted status, of the attention growing, of like the heated moment, and has no, in this situation, there's nowhere for her to duck or go behind or there's no curtain.

257
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:37,000
She's just standing there looking more perturbed.

258
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:56,000
I would ask that Theriak and us be given some time alone for a little bit in our room, one of the rooms, so we may debrief with each other and discuss our future plans.

259
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,000
Founder, is this something you would like?

260
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,000
I would quite enjoy that.

261
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:09,000
Very good. You have the left wing all to yourself, whilst the directors are here, we would like a meeting.

262
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:18,000
Meeting scheduled more toward the 8pm time, about four hours from now.

263
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:28,000
So, of course, go in. It's a very stressful time. I appreciate it. Thank you.

264
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,000
She walks off.

265
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,000
We should go, we don't know how many eyes are out here.

266
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:35,000
I'm wigging out dudes.

267
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,000
I am wigging.

268
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:48,000
Oh, is there any way for me to tell where Flair is? I assume our magic is similar.

269
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:53,000
Is there any way, am I able to like kind of sense what room they're in based on that?

270
00:31:53,000 --> 00:32:02,000
Roll me a computers and I'm going to roll a computers on Flair and we're going to see if you two are connected enough to be able to.

271
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:07,000
Okay. Yeah, that's a 29.

272
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:35,000
You get a small ping, like a thread that you can see, a very familiar thread. It is shaky and doesn't quite hold, but you can see that it's like he is in the West Wing sleeping quarters.

273
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:40,000
The tactician, you want to roll me a tactician to see where people would be placed?

274
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,000
I like tactician.

275
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,000
That's another natural 20.

276
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,000
So it's a 30.

277
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,000
Aphrodite said you had the West Wing.

278
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:53,000
You would know that your party would already be there.

279
00:32:53,000 --> 00:33:05,000
Theriac would have the like master bedroom. If there was a big like she also did say that you all had en suites, but Theriac would probably have a like the the fucking room.

280
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,000
It's like an apartment.

281
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,000
Yeah, what's an en suite?

282
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,000
It's got a bathroom attached.

283
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,000
Like in the hotel room?

284
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:31,000
Yeah, most hotel rooms have en suites. Hold on. I think Fleur would probably be somewhere, well, probably very exposed because I doubt Aphrodite would care for reverse safety.

285
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,000
Right about here.

286
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,000
And like I gently push open the door.

287
00:33:36,000 --> 00:34:03,000
Going into the into this West Wing, it is this red carpeted, these vases with a small hovering bot that is trimming them, trimming down a lot of the pedals, the pedals seem all fine but they are they are they are cutting stems and anyone who knows any form of botany

288
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,000
knows they're doing a very weird job of what they're doing.

289
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:20,000
Making sure that they pack they like Hoover up all of the the petals and cut leaves these flowers in these very kitschy ornate like well designed vases.

290
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:49,000
Big large mural pictures on on the walls with landscapes and some depicting this like beautiful machinery painted on canvas and some art of what looks like an artist's interpretation of what Newmores is this like dark,

291
00:34:49,000 --> 00:35:12,000
cold outside with this like beautiful sphere and inside of this sphere with this life and love and this colorful and it's nice and it's alive inside of that sphere is another smaller one bright white streaks of white paint fly off and almost like this this sun is illuminating all of Newmores

292
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:19,000
this paintings like that as I'm you push open the door.

293
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:45,000
And you see a room which is modest, it is nicely sized has a bed, a TV in it, a small like holodeck communicator that you can use to, you know, if you understand people's number you type in a number, sit on a chair and then the other person responds like this like you are sitting across from each other but it would be a hologram that is created in front of you.

294
00:35:45,000 --> 00:36:13,000
Chandelier big thick heavy red curtains and Flair who's has the cupboard open and is like pulling out clothes, trying to seemingly trying to look for some something to change into since their clothes are ragged and still have a hole in it from when they were skewered in the leg from the crashing of the patchwork.

295
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:18,000
Head whips turns to you, breathe that big heavy sigh of relief.

296
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,000
Oh, hey.

297
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:25,000
So, I saw what happened on the TV.

298
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:33,000
Before we start, can I just do a little look around the room for any like bugs or security cameras.

299
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:34,000
Sure.

300
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:40,000
Give me a, I believe, I believe perception is a thing.

301
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,000
Can I assist.

302
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,000
Can assist you can assist do your own role if you want.

303
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:53,000
We can all kind of look a little bit if you would look, if you would like, everyone can make their own. Got it.

304
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:57,000
1731.

305
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,000
Nice. Very good.

306
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:09,000
Everyone gets the cleaning robot that's outside, probably has some form of tracking in it.

307
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:25,000
It has like a, it's remote controlled so it would have a chip telling people where it is, but also has like a sensor camera on it, which people can use to see where people have been.

308
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:36,000
There are a few of these as you were walking through the the main hallway these two large staircases going up connected to a second floor, and then you quickly went off into the West Wing.

309
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:43,000
You would have seen a few of these minor cleaning bots around.

310
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:50,000
A thing that a Zom would notice.

311
00:37:50,000 --> 00:38:07,000
The TV, the hollow communicator, and probably a few other minor electrical items in the room, have the,

312
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:23,000
the ability to like search a person's history, they can, it's like, oh, sign up and you can get, you know, x y z and you sign up and it reads your email address and will sell it to other people, it will you have it, like, just by flicking through the TV, it kind of has an

313
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:29,000
imprint of what you like and what you're doing and your time and

314
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:44,000
the TV has this like very very slight swivel on it, where if you move to another end of the room, it will turn to make sure that you're always at the perfect angle, and that too counts as a camera.

315
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:53,000
I just pointed every camera ability to monitor you, camera, audio.

316
00:38:53,000 --> 00:39:03,000
I just go through the list. The cleaning bot that is outside that is likely recording and listening in.

317
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:15,000
I think I would like to see if Ferple can like hang out by the door and just like give off static.

318
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:25,000
Sure. All right. Make me a computers. You specifically computers.

319
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:33,000
At the 19 base roll, which, so that is a third 31.

320
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:52,000
Although you can't see it, you see the all these different threads which I imagine I don't think we ever described but I've always imagined I threads being almost like, like that. Yeah, big thick pieces of yarn, big pieces of yarn that I see is floating around in the sky.

321
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:56,000
Yes. Good.

322
00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:08,000
I imagine you can see all of the ones that connect to verbal. There's a point when they begin to disappear, as if they are causing the static of.

323
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:34,000
Yeah, they're causing static to robotic things to like blocking out this space to like lock down my on sweet can I roll like a computers or an engineering or something. So if there's any sort of monitoring crap in like, so we have a spot to talk going to what like so you leave and try to find your own room on walking in.

324
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:47,000
Actually, even just before you open that you see that your door is just like a little a jar before you go in, and you hear, like, very minor quiet sparks and some machinery being moved around.

325
00:40:47,000 --> 00:41:12,000
And as you slowly open the door, you see wires of the TV at the back of be pulled out, and I like going down to a chair that is lent up against the wall and you see scrap who is already like fully like disabling all of like any form of watchable tech in the room.

326
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:23,000
And then sees you puts it down as like, are you okay, I saw what happened on the TV in my room dude. I've only just started I want to eventually go round and unplug everyone's room.

327
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:27,000
Are you okay, are you okay my room first.

328
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:33,000
Yeah, are you fine. No, that was a lot.

329
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:45,000
So, the people can't die.

330
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:53,000
So everyone gathers into skies room that is like shit off the wall.

331
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:58,000
Like a bit of a mess there is the smell of like a burning wire.

332
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:11,000
Verpal gets to the door and then does the same move again makes this static so nothing can look in scrap seems a little bit more frantic than you've seen them before.

333
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:30,000
Flair is seemingly quite calm, Kielan is pacing and Estrid is feet up on the table.

334
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:38,000
Yeah, so you, you're, you're, you are fine. Right. Define. Do you mean by fine. Like physically.

335
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:45,000
Yeah, physically fine. I'm there was a firefight right next to you. You're all okay.

336
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:48,000
They didn't do anything to you.

337
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:54,000
Okay, good question. Raise your hand if you're injured.

338
00:42:54,000 --> 00:43:09,000
All right. We were able to see the first part of a sermon, but then as soon as someone got up and started screaming we saw a grenade being chucked, and then everything cut out, and only to be reported on the news afterward.

339
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:15,000
Okay. So we heard what happened. Well, you heard the first part of what happened.

340
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:25,000
We heard the first part and we also know that people can't die as well. That is something that we did get because the news, the news said that they were. Yeah.

341
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:31,000
Can I tell you all something.

342
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:42,000
Also, sometimes I can, I can, you know, um, hear people's thoughts, a little bit, just a little tiny message.

343
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:46,000
Wait, since when? Since robots and stuff.

344
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:50,000
Like computers. Sometimes it's like brain waves.

345
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,000
You can do that?

346
00:43:52,000 --> 00:44:11,000
I can hear a little bit of a, um, and I can send a little message and hear one back and well, um, I just thought it was strange what those, you know, folks were yelling about and I didn't think, I didn't want to jump to conclusions that

347
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:24,000
they were doing something bad. So I tried to listen in and find out what was happening.

348
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:46,000
And I heard them screaming in my head for about 10 minutes or so until I lost the connection. And they were dead.

349
00:44:46,000 --> 00:45:00,000
They should, in all intents and purposes, they would have been dead from what happened. But it's not just Newmores. It's not just the state of being here.

350
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:07,000
People took them to make them stay alive.

351
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:21,000
I think that the people who started that protest, I think they're still alive somewhere right now.

352
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:37,000
And I think that they probably have more information about what's going on here than we can ascertain from anything these people are going to tell us.

353
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:55,000
Our goal is what is in the center of this place. And I feel like if we do take it, it crumbles. So we need to decide what we want to do here. What, because if we want to break this city, it will take a lot of work.

354
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:58,000
Yeah, the whole city?

355
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:03,000
We could also just try and steal the crystal and leave.

356
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:11,000
Stealing the crystal and leaving already feels kind of impossible. You want to break the whole city with like, what, eight people?

357
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:16,000
No, not with eight people, I think.

358
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:28,000
Fury, you have this far off look in your eyes. I feel like I should be asking if you're okay.

359
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:37,000
I am frankly horrifying.

360
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:41,000
This...

361
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:50,000
There are many people who would fall back on the rash excuse of things being quote unquote unnatural for certain reasons.

362
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:55,000
This is despicably unnatural.

363
00:46:55,000 --> 00:47:06,000
The screaming that you heard, I can only assume, is the fact that these people are in the midst of excruciating pain.

364
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:25,000
If this is the same sort of affliction that the Baron carries, then I fear us taking the crystal would kill everyone.

365
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:29,000
Why do you think they're so interested in you?

366
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:39,000
What offers places is a mockery of scientific endeavor, in a similar but different way to what Wild Times was.

367
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:56,000
I imagine that they see, thanks to Wild Times' history, this kind of exploitation being not too far off from what you stand for.

368
00:47:56,000 --> 00:48:02,000
I am also just personally angry at Venus for...

369
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:12,000
basically implying that we have known each other for a long time, and that's just an extremely shitty thing to do, professionally or not.

370
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:18,000
Right, she implied that you are part of this somehow.

371
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:21,000
Exactly, now I'm culpable of this.

372
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:25,000
Forgive me, Fury, I think you could be.

373
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:28,000
I understand that, but...

374
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:33,000
I don't know, how old is Newmores?

375
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:37,000
Like, when was this city founded?

376
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:43,000
This place has been a city for at least 500 years, but if...

377
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:49,000
Wild Times' company was not always operated by Furyac and by Mr. Wild, right?

378
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:58,000
It was owned by... there was a board, which means that board may have made certain deals, we're not aware of it.

379
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:05,000
Yeah, but it was an upper-decker's resort before that.

380
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:10,000
It had nothing to do with animal conservation, as far as I'm aware.

381
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:14,000
Yeah, it had to do with animal exploitation.

382
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:18,000
Look around you, I think there's a lot of exploitation happening here.

383
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:21,000
Well, maybe...

384
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:27,000
Maybe it's not that they were involved together, maybe they...

385
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:34,000
...wanted to use Wild Times' technology...

386
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:36,000
...somehow here.

387
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:44,000
It did seem pretty bummed when Furyac implied that business was a no-go.

388
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:46,000
Hmm.

389
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:55,000
If you wish to stand with these people, who we do not know, and fight back against this place, I do have an idea, but it would take...

390
00:49:55,000 --> 00:50:00,000
It would take us all stomaching some things with ravenhawks.

391
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:03,000
Fuck yeah.

392
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:10,000
I am, of course, into hearing the idea, but we don't know anything about this place or its people.

393
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:19,000
There's clearly some form of faction, group of people who are against it, and I don't think that this is a place for us.

394
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:30,000
The crystal is, of course, nice, and I understand that you all want it for whatever reason, but it will, from what we have discussed, kill an entire city.

395
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:41,000
Which, if we are not already on every hit list imaginable, it will put us on every hit list imaginable.

396
00:50:41,000 --> 00:51:01,000
Well, okay, that brings up a good point, because I am currently so disturbed by the idea of people who are wanting life to be over and are being forced to stay alive.

397
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:17,000
That is terrible, but I assume there are people here who are quite happy to be alive, and if taking the crystal would harm them all, I don't think that's a good idea either.

398
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:20,000
But I don't know.

399
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:31,000
I feel like what we need to do is perhaps learn more in totality, but I do have an idea, because I think Skye's right. Eight of us.

400
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,000
Skye's right?

401
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:35,000
Yeah, you're right.

402
00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:50,000
A full frontal assault with eight, even eight plus who knows how many of those survivors are still wouldn't be enough.

403
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:55,000
Which means we may have to try a different approach.

404
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:57,000
What's your plan?

405
00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:10,000
I don't have a plan, I just have an idea. I think we need to learn more about this place, and I do think that those three pretty people don't seem to like each other very much.

406
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:18,000
Alright, well, if we need someone to go explore the city, Flair, Estrid and I will go on a scouting mission tonight.

407
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:24,000
I think that's a grand idea. I also think that Venus has taken a special interest in you.

408
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,000
Of course, look at that.

409
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:29,000
She's pretty as a page.

410
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:34,000
It's not my fault, I'm a natural born entertainer.

411
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:51,000
But that's my point. If you could get in Venus' good graces, maybe say you're inspired by her, you could probably get her view on the situation and you could possibly poison the will, I believe the term is.

412
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:58,000
Why am I the one that has to get in her good graces when I'm already in her bad graces and frankly I did absolutely nothing wrong.

413
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:06,000
Venus is an artist. Artists have spats all the time. But they recognize her for artists.

414
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:12,000
For a moment I think we all forgot I'm just pretending to be an artist.

415
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:16,000
That makes you an actor, which is an artist.

416
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:19,000
I don't know, I think that you have potential.

417
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:21,000
You did a type 5.

418
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:24,000
Well I'm just funny.

419
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:28,000
And I've also heard you sing in the shower. You're pretty good.

420
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:31,000
No, that's scrap.

421
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,000
What?

422
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:34,000
I am very good in the shower.

423
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:35,000
You tell them.

424
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:36,000
I have a...

425
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:38,000
I'm established, I just do drum beats.

426
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:44,000
Yes.

427
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:49,000
And that's not the patchwork, a lot of people think that's the patchwork acting up.

428
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:55,000
That's why you may have noticed when you first got on the patchwork, we have a it's been zero days since Sky has last beatbox sign.

429
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:57,000
Who put that up?

430
00:53:57,000 --> 00:54:00,000
Scrap.

431
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:08,000
Sky, I still think your best insight into Venus in the same way I think Thiriak is our best insight into Aphrodite.

432
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:15,000
I feel like we are the two kind of representatives for each of our respective groups, you know.

433
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:24,000
I was upset earlier, but I was very intentionally like trying to put them on edge by saying I would not do...

434
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:32,000
I may not do business with them, to have sort of an upper hand in the deal making in the future.

435
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:39,000
Aphrodite already snapped at Venus, and I'm pretty sure has no kind thoughts to spare about Adonis, maybe the easiest one to...

436
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:46,000
If we get all three heads turned against each other, we could...

437
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:51,000
We might see Viscity fall without our direct involvement.

438
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:52,000
Yes, Sky.

439
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:57,000
If the goal is to get them to all go against each other, why...

440
00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:06,000
I don't think I should be going for Venus. I think I should be going for one of her best friends and make her super jealous, because she's already super jealous.

441
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:13,000
So how jealous is she going to be if like one of them like me better than her, which should be no problem.

442
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:14,000
Not a bad idea.

443
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:26,000
It's not. Who is... I did not get a long time with Adonis. Is he a security personnel bouncer?

444
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:34,000
I think military minded, strong fighting background, trained in a couple arts, Marshal. Bit of a hothead.

445
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:42,000
So definitely I. Definitely I. Yeah. Sorry!

446
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:56,000
Flair at the mention of Adonis kind of puts their hand up. They also kind of do like self help things.

447
00:55:56,000 --> 00:56:14,000
On the elevator down, I was flicking through some and I watched some. It's just kind of like a better help you, you know, get through life and stuff. It didn't seem bad.

448
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:19,000
Can I dibs Adonis, Ben? Because I don't know shit about business, but I am a broken person.

449
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:22,000
By all means.

450
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:36,000
Yeah, it's that could work. It seemed a bit more geared toward masculine people like, you know, kind of get the girl.

451
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:40,000
If you want to do that, you got to clean your room and clean your room.

452
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:44,000
Clean your room? Me 13?

453
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:47,000
That's how you don't get the girl to leave.

454
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:56,000
Yeah, yeah, no, I mean, but it's like that seems to kind of his gambit. I think he did some fighting before.

455
00:56:56,000 --> 00:57:00,000
If Skye wants to take Adonis, I feel it might be a bit difficult, but I'm down for it.

456
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:04,000
And we also got Flair with us.

457
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:08,000
Young impressionable male.

458
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:12,000
Well, I wouldn't. I mean, all right.

459
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:28,000
This isn't nothing to do with Venus. If we want to do the end goal, I think that I should go and try and find out what the deal with the crystal is, how to get up.

460
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:31,000
I'm inclined to agree.

461
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:35,000
I can help her do that. Like, I mean, the pair of us going together, I feel like.

462
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:38,000
Okay, so I don't have to go alone. Thank you. Great.

463
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:49,000
Well, everyone else seems to have like a bit like I think finding out what the deal with the crystal is, if we can get up.

464
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:59,000
From the way you describe the light field around it, it's a bit more calculated. It's possible to. It's there. I know it's there.

465
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:02,000
There you go. It's just a case of how to get in.

466
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:04,000
You think I could talk to that one?

467
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:08,000
Maybe, but we'd have to get close and I don't want to risk it until.

468
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:12,000
It's a it seems to be like a pretty high up.

469
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:16,000
The other thing we should probably keep an eye out for is the evil Fafnir that are coming.

470
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:22,000
I assume they are coming for you.

471
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:27,000
What? If anything, wouldn't that be good for I.G. because the Void are criminals, the Void are the one looking for I.G.

472
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:34,000
So if they hear that this place is going to be swimming with all Hefnar, wouldn't it deter them from coming here?

473
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:37,000
The meaning that the Void doesn't work with Hefnar?

474
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:39,000
No, they definitely don't. No?

475
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:48,000
As far as I'm aware and I know a lot about the inner workings of the Void, they don't really touch.

476
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:52,000
I didn't know that. So I definitely thought they were here.

477
00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:58,000
I think honestly, number one unwritten rule of the Void. Don't talk to all Hefnar.

478
00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:03,000
Okay, okay. All right. Buying a little time.

479
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:11,000
If anyone is attracting their attention, it's probably me, but they wouldn't know I had. They wouldn't even know I came here.

480
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:15,000
No, they were here before we got scanned in.

481
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:24,000
How many Ifrit have we seen on this journey at all? We've seen you and that one old Hefnar.

482
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:29,000
Have they seen?

483
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:32,000
They haven't seen me yet, no.

484
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:36,000
Okay. Okay.

485
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:44,000
What of your partner?

486
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:47,000
Previous companion.

487
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:51,000
They haven't seen me yet.

488
00:59:51,000 --> 01:00:00,000
I was in the light and they were not.

489
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:15,000
I want to be clear. Our plan is to have them turn against each other and then distract them with an interior conflict. Yes?

490
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:18,000
What happens post-conflict?

491
01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:31,000
Provide or should I say, IG and Scrap provide the survivors with the ability to get in close.

492
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:39,000
It should be up to the people who. Yes, Skye.

493
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:52,000
So, theoretically, if we left this place, life would just pick up as normal. Eventually we would die. Right?

494
01:00:52,000 --> 01:01:02,000
So wouldn't it make sense for everybody that didn't want that to just be able to leave?

495
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:09,000
Have we considered the possibility that we might be stuck here? Like, are they keeping people here?

496
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:21,000
But with the amount of skeletons that were outside of the city walls, people can get out. It's not unusual for people to get out.

497
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:35,000
It was all, but it's not planned. The elevator on the way up, it sped eight, nine, ten times faster than it should because it's used to not having people on it.

498
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:45,000
This place is not meant to be a place one returns from. I think we could do it. I think many have. I know many have.

499
01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:55,000
The Baron did, but it isn't built for it. So, yes, there is something keeping people here. That much is certain.

500
01:01:55,000 --> 01:02:08,000
I appreciate the get up and go. Us all wanting to have all of the directors turn against each other and then that to conclude in the collapse of this city.

501
01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:20,000
But there are a small squad of heath coming down that elevator, which will be arriving in a few hours.

502
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:37,000
On top of that, there are two runaway heath and one of the heaths most sought after enemies. What are we doing with that?

503
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:46,000
This city is huge. No one seems to be attempting to escape. Everyone went into that sermon except for the five that rebelled against.

504
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:57,000
What if the city turns against us? These are humans who have been alive for over 500 years at this point.

505
01:02:57,000 --> 01:03:04,000
I mean, that blood isn't hard to break. What if they decide to not do it and then we are all fucked in a different way?

506
01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:22,000
With any luck, they won't suspect us of anything at all. This isn't one where we show our hands and as far as we all have in our, I propose we let them have something we think they want.

507
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:34,000
Azam, aren't you fine? Didn't you just get out of prison? Didn't you do your time? I thought at the most it would just be awkward if you walked into the same pub or something.

508
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:47,000
Magnolia, we're not fans. Last time we had a true conversation, she was locking me up and the time before that I was threatening her. But you're right.

509
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:53,000
So you are just scared that you're gonna fight each other when you see each other?

510
01:03:53,000 --> 01:04:10,000
No. I'm scared she won't listen to reason. I'm saying that we give her something we think she wants and I would not dare suggest Flare or Keelan.

511
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:27,000
If I had her off, I can talk to her. Convince her to maybe not figure out what her intentions are and hopefully convince her not to throw us into a firefight.

512
01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:35,000
And if I cannot convince her, I can convince the other one, I think. Maybe. I don't know.

513
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:38,000
That's assuming that she would receive you at all.

514
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:42,000
She's coming down the elevator. I know exactly where she'll be.

515
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:56,000
When we were being driven here, all we saw were beautiful smiling people. We saw people who seemed young and were happy in some regard.

516
01:04:56,000 --> 01:05:09,000
Now we know that there is a part of the city that isn't that. But then also we saw people who had healed wrong. We saw people that, I mean, we didn't, but I know that it happened.

517
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:19,000
People who were blown up and still living. What happens to them? I think surely we need to go find that before we enact anything.

518
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:34,000
Which is why Sky and Scrap are doing exactly that. All we're doing right now is getting into the ears of two of these three lieutenants. Lieutenants? Lieutenant? Which one do you use again?

519
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:37,000
It changes via what command it is.

520
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:40,000
I hate that.

521
01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:54,000
I think we're getting ahead of ourselves. We have more information to find out. Thieryak, they want something from you and we don't understand what it is.

522
01:05:54,000 --> 01:06:01,000
Sky and Flare and company? Kids?

523
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:03,000
We want to figure-

524
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:05,000
Thank you for that. I appreciate it.

525
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:13,000
Well, we want to find out more about this place. And we haven't seen most of the city.

526
01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:25,000
And I don't know what this crystal is like or how it's different from the one that we've seen. And Azam, we don't know why the old Hefnar are here.

527
01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:45,000
I feel like we have a lot of good ideas on what to do in the big picture, but we're missing some puzzle pieces first. So maybe we just need to figure out the answers to all those things and then the plan at large will make more sense.

528
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:48,000
No, I agree. Right now, just get-

529
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:49,000
Okay.

530
01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:59,000
We need to become camaraderie with these people. That's all that's important. And once we have it, if we wish to use it, we can. Sky.

531
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:11,000
I was basically just going to say that proposition tonight, phase one of Operation Break the City. We're just going to gather information.

532
01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:14,000
Yeah, Break the City is cool.

533
01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:23,000
We got to hand it to Azam. But Theriac goes to- who's the one with the longer name? Aphrodite.

534
01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:30,000
Aphrodite. Theriac goes to Aphrodite. I goes to- maybe I goes to Venus?

535
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:34,000
I think if we can get- I can scrap to Vizit.

536
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:35,000
Yeah.

537
01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:37,000
Oh, I can scrap to our- on Crystal Duty.

538
01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:39,000
On Crystal Duty. Yeah.

539
01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:43,000
I can scrap on Crystal Duty. Teens. We're going to go to Adonis.

540
01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:44,000
Hell yeah.

541
01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:45,000
Who's left?

542
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:53,000
Oh, wait. No. I thought that we were going to go scout out the lower area of the city. I thought that was our job.

543
01:07:53,000 --> 01:07:57,000
Alright, we'll do that. Azam, you want to talk to Adonis?

544
01:07:57,000 --> 01:08:06,000
No. No, no. Adonis wouldn't like me very much. Kieran, why don't you take Estrid and scope the lower city while Flare and Sky focus on Adonis?

545
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:08,000
That would cover my bases and I-

546
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:10,000
Make that plan.

547
01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:13,000
I take a look for what the Ulfhethna are doing.

548
01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:15,000
No. Teens got to stick together.

549
01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:16,000
I think that's reasonable.

550
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:18,000
No, I refuse. Teens are sticking together.

551
01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:22,000
I am into that. I think- okay.

552
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:29,000
Azam, I believe showing our hand that we are here too early will be a mistake.

553
01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:37,000
Possibly not being here when the Ulfhethna arrive. Not being here, I think, is the primary.

554
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:43,000
I have no intention of showing too many hands just yet. Rest assured, I know what I'm doing.

555
01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:52,000
And believe it or not, I do know how to keep a secret. So, if my hand is shown, yours certainly will not be. Neither will Flare's.

556
01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:58,000
After all, they have no idea who the hell I work with these days. Right?

557
01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:03,000
So, Theriac has this meeting.

558
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:14,000
I imagine the three directors will be at that meeting during that time. Sky, Flare, U2, Goh...

559
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:16,000
And Estrid.

560
01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:19,000
Alright. Team Team goes to-

561
01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:20,000
Team Team!

562
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:33,000
Team Team, okay. So, Team Team goes to whichever the low part of town is and figure and try to find something.

563
01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:41,000
Yeah, we'll probably check out some heavily crowded areas, get a scope of the culture here, you know, like clubs, bars.

564
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:44,000
No underage.

565
01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:54,000
Is everyone over 18 in Team Team? Is it like late Team Team? Flare, we don't know how old you are. I don't know how old we are.

566
01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:59,000
Estrid, I ain't telling you how old I am. So, alright. Sky, how old are you?

567
01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:01,000
17.

568
01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:05,000
Alright. Well, we can't be going to clubs in 17.

569
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:17,000
Just please be responsible, respectable, keep your wits about you, so do not take many things out without, I don't know, eliminate those wits.

570
01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:22,000
Don't take any space drugs, I think is a good idea.

571
01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:25,000
That you don't know.

572
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:28,000
Sky, we'll be able to tell the moment you walk through the door.

573
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:30,000
Will you?

574
01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:32,000
Okay.

575
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:39,000
18 Team, do that. Theriac, you're going to have the meeting with the directors.

576
01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:48,000
I, Scrap, find the crystal, which is crystal rats. Is your team name the crystal rats? I like the crystal rats.

577
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:49,000
Okay.

578
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:57,000
Alright, crystal rats. The crystal rats. Crystal rats will go find out about the crystal.

579
01:10:57,000 --> 01:11:05,000
Azzam, would you like to team up on this? We can do the Ulf Hefnar thing together, if you want.

580
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:14,000
If not, I would like to go find out more about this group. So I'm just going to go to a bar and talk.

581
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:25,000
I think that's a great idea. Go to a bar, get more information, the more information we have the better. And I can take care of myself.

582
01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:28,000
Alright. Sure.

583
01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:38,000
Before we go, at this meeting with the directors, should I already be trying to be...

584
01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:44,000
...kind of pointing them against each other? I have an idea as far as...

585
01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:52,000
...stating that Aphrodite is not necessarily culpable for what happened, but that Adonis' lack of security and...

586
01:11:52,000 --> 01:12:03,000
...Venus' hasty mentioning of my name are serious detriments to any sort of business propositions that may occur in the future.

587
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:09,000
Do you think that that is reasonable, or do you think it should just be between me and Aphrodite privately that I stay?

588
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:19,000
I would suggest between you and Aphrodite privately, because right now we don't want them to see that we're the cause of these rumours.

589
01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:21,000
I understand.

590
01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:32,000
Trust your instincts. Get a chance to suss each one of them out. See if they already talk against each other in the room and do nothing to stop it if it does occur.

591
01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:40,000
Afterward, that's when you start twisting the knobs. It's a difficult task to do this. I've done it before.

592
01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:51,000
It doesn't work all the time. So just keep your wits about you. Keep whoever you're trying to be in place, and remember who you actually are.

593
01:12:51,000 --> 01:13:08,000
Enfiriak, the most important thing you can be in that meeting room is swayable. They want to use you. Let them think you are up for sale.

594
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:15,000
Okay. We have our jobs. Hands in the middle.

595
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:27,000
Oh, um, our newer friends aren't acquainted with this, but we say salad time. Um, when it's time for a plan.

596
01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:28,000
Do we still do that?

597
01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:36,000
Oh yeah, it'll be like, when we're all apart on our communicators, it'll be like a code red. Like shit's going south, we'll be like, it's salad time.

598
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:43,000
Okay, but salad time is also like a call to action. Like salad time, let's go. But outside of this, it's also.

599
01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:44,000
Yeah.

600
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:47,000
But also like, oh shit.

601
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:49,000
It's very versatile. It's like, oh my God.

602
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:52,000
I thought salad time was like, you know, we eat salad now.

603
01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:54,000
Sometimes it's that.

604
01:13:54,000 --> 01:14:00,000
It's like, fuck, you can, you can use it excitedly as an insult. It's, it's got so many uses.

605
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:09,000
It's very vibes based. Like you've got to know what the situation is and the tone of the voice. Yeah. It's a lot.

606
01:14:09,000 --> 01:14:10,000
Like fuck.

607
01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:11,000
A lot of intonation.

608
01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:16,000
Very much so. Hands in the middle. Salad time on three. One, two, three.

609
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:17,000
Salad time.

610
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:18,000
Salad time.

611
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:22,000
Salad time.

612
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:37,000
After your team break of salad time, there's a small amount of time where some people go off to their rooms.

613
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:45,000
The team generally chats, readying themselves for what is to be the next little while.

614
01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:49,000
There is a knock at the door.

615
01:14:49,000 --> 01:14:52,000
The voice either end.

616
01:14:52,000 --> 01:15:03,000
You all recognize a Samson who was Aphrodite's right hand or assigned wellness officer, should we say. Found a Theriak.

617
01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:08,000
It's, it's, it's time for you to meet with the directors.

618
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:10,000
Yes, I will be right out. Thank you.

619
01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:13,000
You hear heavy footsteps walk away down the hall.

620
01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:21,000
We'll open the door, but in the way of like, please don't look inside my room and just like squeeze it out.

621
01:15:21,000 --> 01:15:33,000
And we'll head towards the meeting place.

622
01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:43,000
Definitely trying to keep objectives in mind and specifically a Zombs bullet points for like what to keep in mind.

623
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:48,000
You walk out of your assigned West Wing and into the main corridor.

624
01:15:48,000 --> 01:16:05,000
These two very beautiful staircases arch around a door that leads into this meeting room and these the staircases are up to an upper landing that goes off into the rest of the the manor.

625
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:26,000
There are these small cleaning robots, but also bots that walk around like waiters and butlers and are carrying food to the kitchen is what you can imagine, which you can smell food coming from it.

626
01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:32,000
Your stomach gurgles a little, but not out of hunger, just out of that like, could I eat?

627
01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:35,000
I don't know.

628
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:41,000
You see Samson who who is stood to the side of the door going into the into the meeting room.

629
01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:43,000
He gives you a nod.

630
01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:49,000
The others are waiting for you. Thank you.

631
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:52,000
What can I do with like a sense motive? Yeah, absolutely. You can.

632
01:16:52,000 --> 01:17:13,000
I'm trying to sense. Does he seem stressed? Is he kind of caught up in a lot of the kind of politik of it all? You know, he doesn't seem like he's caught up in the politics, but he does seem like he has something else on his mind.

633
01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:35,000
He had to stay behind to clear up and is has returned. There is no blood on him. He just looks like a little agitated, but in the way that a man who's just seen some form of combat would be a little agitated and then had to clean up after, presumably.

634
01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:50,000
I'm going to regard him and then advance forward into the beautiful meeting room.

635
01:17:50,000 --> 01:18:11,000
Grand. And you're right, it is beautiful. The room has a lush carpet, a long hand carved wooden table that can seat up to around 15 maybe 20 people on the walls are hanging plants and pictures and paintings, holographic newspaper screenshots of Freya, Inc.

636
01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:29,000
And pictures of the directors with the founders of different companies of very mining cert energy hermitech. There's one picture that stands out. It's an older picture, and it's of them with the creators of Dumbler, which you know is a food company.

637
01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:44,000
It's the first ever company to buy an entire planet. Almost every company throughout the entire galaxy was eventually absorbed into a Dumbler. But eventually it got so big that it had to dissolve the companies and ended up bursting.

638
01:18:44,000 --> 01:19:00,000
Bury mining that was originally a subsidiary of it ended up getting the ability to buy a Dumbler itself. The directors in this picture look young. They look young now, but they are a different type of young.

639
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:14,000
They look freshly 20 they bright eyed bushy tail there the whole world ahead of them and you can see it in their eyes that drive and passion. The people that are sat at the end of this handcrafted table in this room.

640
01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:16,000
They look different.

641
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:21,000
They're young, yes, but they have the life ripped out of them.

642
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:24,000
The directors smile as you look toward them.

643
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:39,000
Founder, thank you so much for joining us. We've had quite a big day so it's very nice to. It's very nice for you to come here and we can get some business on the road. Please feel free to take a seat.

644
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:43,000
She gestures to any chair in the room. Thank you.

645
01:19:43,000 --> 01:20:02,000
She reaches out her hand and place it on the table. This like hard light interface comes out, and she clicks a few buttons and you see a small, a small speaker almost in the middle of the table come up and then a red light start blinking almost like the.

646
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:05,000
This meeting is being recorded for minutes.

647
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:18,000
Just to do some introductions. My name is Aphrodite and she her. It's very nice for you all to to come where we are meeting with founder theory act of wild times.

648
01:20:18,000 --> 01:20:26,000
And we have just some just a small impromptu business meeting. Yeah, a Donis, he.

649
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:38,000
Yeah, it's nice. It's good to be here. Hello, my name is Venus. It's it's it's so nice to be here she they for me. Yes, it's it's it's it's wonderful.

650
01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:41,000
My name is theory act.

651
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:44,000
Dr theory act.

652
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:48,000
My pronouns are they them.

653
01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:54,000
On you saying they them Venus does a little like, oh, and a little clap to herself.

654
01:20:54,000 --> 01:21:10,000
Right. So, theory act, we again, I want to extend my most sincere apologies for what happened earlier, the cathedral, that it was a dreadful show of what our city is.

655
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:21,000
But in some way, it is a, a show of almost why we've asked you to to be here.

656
01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:31,000
We know a little bit about your work at wild times and the events and the things that you do.

657
01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:50,000
When it comes to the animals, and there's no point beating around the bush now, since you already know, and we're shown firsthand that the light above this thing that we have created, it has given us all the gift of undead, which is an absolutely

658
01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:57,000
fantastic gift that that humanity in their short lifespan has.

659
01:21:57,000 --> 01:22:02,000
And this, this is marvelous and truly a magical thing.

660
01:22:02,000 --> 01:22:12,000
However, we have some unforeseen and quite upsetting realization after we

661
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:36,000
after we personally can't die, it is the fact that we are now living so long that there inevitably is people who we know who do pass on on other planets outside of the city and also, I'm not sure if you're aware, but when we pass outside of the, the light outside of the walls of this city,

662
01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:42,000
time has shown to catch up to us.

663
01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:45,000
So,

664
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:49,000
we are as beautiful and perfect as our city is.

665
01:22:49,000 --> 01:22:58,000
Unfortunately, we are unable to experience the rest of the galaxy.

666
01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:25,000
You have such a fine understanding of the, the, the organics and the motorrifics of how organic life thrives and grows. And what we would like to suggest is building a facility that is connected to New Moors, that we will be, be run in house or by yourself if you

667
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:36,000
are tired that we can have to serve as research into the light, and how we can have it be carried with us.

668
01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:38,000
Cut to the chase.

669
01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:48,000
We need a way to not only now we've conquered the ability to, to, to, you know, live forever.

670
01:23:48,000 --> 01:23:52,000
We need a way to bring things back.

671
01:23:52,000 --> 01:24:13,000
We don't know if it will be people or animals but a way to have after something dies, bringing them back into the light doesn't work in the same way. It doesn't make it, make them come back and we are looking for a way to do that.

672
01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:24,000
I know we know that the things that you do you know is is is cool and all but that's that's our goal is to have things come back.

673
01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:27,000
Okay.

674
01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:36,000
So, a lot of this hinges on this light.

675
01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:38,000
Yes.

676
01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:43,000
Light is the source of the on death as you call it.

677
01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:46,000
Well, yes, we.

678
01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:50,000
When we started this project, you know we.

679
01:24:50,000 --> 01:25:12,000
We didn't know that this is what it would become originally we thought that, you know, we were all in business but it wasn't something that was our passion that drove us, and we found a way that could.

680
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:24,000
We started a company called Saga, and it got like broken up, and we found their research, and we wanted to, you know, work with it to extend our lives a little.

681
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:28,000
What was the name of the company.

682
01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:42,000
I don't know if you've mentioned, is the name of the company. They were looking into continued life extended changing biology of people, and it was so.

683
01:25:42,000 --> 01:26:02,000
It was, it was, it was so unique, and unfortunately, they weren't a good company, it got taken down by some people who are fighting the plates, originally, so that company got broken up, and then it got bought by another company that turned to bury mining

684
01:26:02,000 --> 01:26:03,000
that.

685
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:11,000
And then after that we found it. And we made it originally to extend life as a donis was saying.

686
01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:14,000
And then it turned out that we can't die.

687
01:26:14,000 --> 01:26:22,000
And now we need a way to move outside and and bring things back.

688
01:26:22,000 --> 01:26:31,000
So, your plan is to create an extension of this facility.

689
01:26:31,000 --> 01:26:35,000
By trying to emulate the

690
01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:40,000
lights

691
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:43,000
influence in a way.

692
01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:49,000
Do not like that word influence

693
01:26:49,000 --> 01:26:53,000
metaphysical properties

694
01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:56,000
influence indicates motive.

695
01:26:56,000 --> 01:26:59,000
We cannot assume such things at this time.

696
01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:10,000
And then we built, you know, the machine, the, the thing, the or that we use to power the machine.

697
01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:19,000
It's not all really it's it's it's more of a catalyst the catalyst to the machine that helps you know all of us go and has been up for.

698
01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:32,000
How long have we been 950 years at this point, the catalyst we've been using, using for that long, but that catalyst, when it was in the ground before we discovered it.

699
01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:43,000
It created this offset of or that is only found on nos this thing called Turinium or we, we've sent people outside of New Moors to find it.

700
01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:49,000
Because it has similar properties to the crystal it just doesn't last nearly as long.

701
01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:53,000
So we were hoping that with some

702
01:27:53,000 --> 01:28:05,000
checkings and experimentations, we have a facility that you can be attached to this that the facility of some summon if you want to, where we have people who

703
01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:10,000
kind of desire this ability to come back to rebuild their own bodies.

704
01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:17,000
I understand that my my skill set is desirable for the

705
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:26,000
for the plans that you have and the wishes that you go beyond simply

706
01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:30,000
this location. I understand that for well.

707
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:35,000
If you are looking for me specifically.

708
01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:43,000
I am I am still beholden to wild times that is my company that I run personally myself.

709
01:28:43,000 --> 01:28:53,000
It will. I'm not saying it is impossible, but I am saying that it will take.

710
01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:58,000
A great amount of

711
01:28:58,000 --> 01:29:05,000
something to make

712
01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:15,000
leaving wild times as its own separate entity to be run by another another person feasible.

713
01:29:15,000 --> 01:29:23,000
You know, and and I'm certain Mr. Wilde will be able to handle himself perfectly fine, but that is a

714
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:29,000
business that is directly linked to me in my in my studies. Absolutely.

715
01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:38,000
And we do we understand we really do. And we know that you've had such a dreadful few months when it when it comes to wild times, you know,

716
01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:49,000
with your with your board members passing that is definitely not enough staff and people, you know, because we I believe we've reached out for this before.

717
01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:55,000
But but I don't believe the board members went for it. But I do know that that, you know,

718
01:29:55,000 --> 01:30:03,000
there are other people who reached out who the board members were a bit more willing to to speak to.

719
01:30:03,000 --> 01:30:09,000
And I know that it's a hard time for you. And I know that, you know, it feels like the world's on your shoulders.

720
01:30:09,000 --> 01:30:16,000
And if there's anything we can do to help, we do have a lot of knowledge with each one of us has has, you know,

721
01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:26,000
so, so much time each we all work in mechanics. We have people in Somnum who who are brilliant masterminds at this.

722
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:34,000
And we would fund the expedition down here. We don't use credits, but we know the rest of the galaxy do.

723
01:30:34,000 --> 01:30:43,000
So we do have a small windfall. If you would like, we can give you almost a blank check to try and figure this out.

724
01:30:43,000 --> 01:30:59,000
Sure. I apologize. I'm still trying to recover from these events.

725
01:30:59,000 --> 01:31:13,000
I theory act is trying to exude the fact that they are like they want to portray that they are possibly willing to.

726
01:31:13,000 --> 01:31:20,000
But because of what happened today, specifically that like completely butchered any chance.

727
01:31:20,000 --> 01:31:26,000
And that like only by resolving what happened today that things could move forward.

728
01:31:26,000 --> 01:31:32,000
OK. And you're like giving this impression of like, oh, I can't. I'm too shaken.

729
01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:42,000
Yes. Should I roll diplomacy or bluff? Let's go with bluff since it's not real. Exactly 15.

730
01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:57,000
Beautiful. Adonis like nods haphazardly and I'm ready. Darling, look at you. I understand. And you know, we have time.

731
01:31:57,000 --> 01:32:04,000
We have time. We do. We have time. You can can stay here for as long as you want.

732
01:32:04,000 --> 01:32:12,000
I understand that your ship crashed, which is why you're here in the first place and and your your board dies, your ship crashes.

733
01:32:12,000 --> 01:32:16,000
And now you're here and you're seeing these awful things. I can't imagine the stress.

734
01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:21,000
Truly. You have our full, full support, founder, for whatever it is you need.

735
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:25,000
You don't need to make a decision now. Sleep on it, if you must.

736
01:32:25,000 --> 01:32:33,000
We have things to attend to today. Regardless, we have we have another surprise meeting, as I was saying before.

737
01:32:33,000 --> 01:32:39,000
I will say this. I know that what transpired today is shocking.

738
01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:45,000
And again, your ship crashed, which is a dreadful accident.

739
01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:51,000
And I'm sure the the board members dying, which was an awful thing.

740
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:55,000
Think of how good it would be to be able to bring them back.

741
01:32:55,000 --> 01:33:07,000
The the the people who died today or who attacked us today, they attacked us because they're frustrated that they can't leave.

742
01:33:07,000 --> 01:33:17,000
You lending us help with your facility. That will do so much good for our city, will help these people that feel trapped.

743
01:33:17,000 --> 01:33:26,000
You can help these people that feel trapped. And and we are trying, but without you, it's it's so much more difficult.

744
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:33,000
I understand. I I do believe I will need to sleep on this.

745
01:33:33,000 --> 01:33:39,000
Of course, I I do thank you for your time.

746
01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:45,000
I understand that you all have plenty of time to spare.

747
01:33:45,000 --> 01:33:53,000
I unfortunately do not. So I will try to make a decision soon.

748
01:33:53,000 --> 01:33:57,000
But please keep that in mind.

749
01:33:57,000 --> 01:34:04,000
No, absolutely. We appreciate it. If you are hungry at all, please feel free to use the kitchens.

750
01:34:04,000 --> 01:34:09,000
We don't have a lot in the way of should I? I'm terribly sorry to ask this.

751
01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:15,000
Should I feel hungry? I have not felt anything.

752
01:34:15,000 --> 01:34:27,000
Part of forever is is not needing food and and and drink.

753
01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:31,000
And that is part of the crystals light that that they've given us.

754
01:34:31,000 --> 01:34:37,000
You won't whilst you're in the walls of the city feel hungry or feel thirsty at all.

755
01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:49,000
But the light is able to maintain homeostasis and provide enough energy to all of the citizens within the city

756
01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:57,000
without the need of external maintenance, such as sleep, food, et cetera.

757
01:34:57,000 --> 01:35:03,000
It's everything. It's not even needed to be powered. We don't run electricity to it.

758
01:35:03,000 --> 01:35:09,000
It just runs itself. I understand.

759
01:35:09,000 --> 01:35:17,000
Well, I have been up quite early, so I'm going to nip off.

760
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:23,000
I feel like this is coming to a close, so we should all sleep on it.

761
01:35:23,000 --> 01:35:27,000
I have a shoot tomorrow. Yes. So I'm going to go.

762
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:32,000
And yes, I think we did some good stuff. I'm going to be around town if you need me.

763
01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:37,000
Feel free to call. I'll be there for anything that you that you need from me.

764
01:35:37,000 --> 01:35:43,000
Founder, thank you so much for this time. Yes, I believe we are done.

765
01:35:43,000 --> 01:35:47,000
Adonis, you're preparing for the Ulfethna meeting. Yeah.

766
01:35:47,000 --> 01:35:55,000
Thank you so much for your time. And she reaches out her hand and then clicks the recording button.

767
01:35:55,000 --> 01:36:00,000
And then it it dies down. And like a small like floppy disk looking tape comes up

768
01:36:00,000 --> 01:36:06,000
and she she she picks it up and hands it to a bot that's out.

769
01:36:06,000 --> 01:36:12,000
Go save. Pardon me, Aphrodite. Yes.

770
01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:18,000
When you have a moment, could I speak to you in private?

771
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:22,000
Absolutely, Venus. You have to nip off.

772
01:36:22,000 --> 01:36:27,000
Adonis, go prepare the Ulfethna. They should be arriving very soon, actually.

773
01:36:27,000 --> 01:36:32,000
You go meet them. Yep. And the both of them leave.

774
01:36:32,000 --> 01:36:37,000
Absolutely. What is it that you need to talk about?

775
01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:42,000
I specifically wanted to

776
01:36:42,000 --> 01:36:48,000
discuss with you the events of earlier that I that

777
01:36:48,000 --> 01:36:53,000
my entourage and I were not

778
01:36:53,000 --> 01:37:01,000
anticipating to witness. And I wanted to say first and foremost that

779
01:37:01,000 --> 01:37:06,000
I place no

780
01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:11,000
culpability of what had occurred on you.

781
01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:18,000
This was scheduled by you

782
01:37:18,000 --> 01:37:23,000
very well timed. Not your

783
01:37:23,000 --> 01:37:30,000
nothing of your actions resulted in what had occurred.

784
01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:35,000
I am

785
01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:41,000
slightly more upset with the other two.

786
01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:47,000
Interesting. Can I ask why?

787
01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:52,000
The first part of it was that

788
01:37:52,000 --> 01:37:57,000
of Adonis being sort of

789
01:37:57,000 --> 01:38:02,000
a large part of the

790
01:38:02,000 --> 01:38:07,000
wellness of town and sort of

791
01:38:07,000 --> 01:38:14,000
a point person for security and whatnot. That seems

792
01:38:14,000 --> 01:38:20,000
to have a fairly large oversight on his. That makes me a bit

793
01:38:20,000 --> 01:38:26,000
hesitant to be willing to stay

794
01:38:26,000 --> 01:38:32,000
if that physical threat is present. Does that make sense?

795
01:38:32,000 --> 01:38:38,000
Yes. No, I do understand, Founder. Truly, I do.

796
01:38:38,000 --> 01:38:44,000
And Adonis for all of his very good trades, he is

797
01:38:44,000 --> 01:38:49,000
boisterous and his oversight

798
01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:54,000
does not make him the best when it comes to

799
01:38:54,000 --> 01:38:59,000
the security check ins. But we do have a team. We have a team for this.

800
01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:04,000
Samson is one of the more heads up there. Adonis has taken a bit of a step

801
01:39:04,000 --> 01:39:11,000
down of recent because we are aware that some things have begun to slip through.

802
01:39:11,000 --> 01:39:16,000
Still remains very much one of the founders of Freya, Inc.

803
01:39:16,000 --> 01:39:22,000
But not in a security position anymore. But I appreciate you

804
01:39:22,000 --> 01:39:28,000
bringing this up. Thank you very much. I will bringing up to him. And then I'll bring it up to

805
01:39:28,000 --> 01:39:34,000
Samson to increase security when we

806
01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:40,000
will leave. So he's been

807
01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:46,000
demoted? Not demoted. Just took a step

808
01:39:46,000 --> 01:39:51,000
in a different direction.

809
01:39:51,000 --> 01:39:56,000
When we were growing up, he very much was

810
01:39:56,000 --> 01:40:01,000
into security and protecting and fighting.

811
01:40:01,000 --> 01:40:06,000
But shortly before we

812
01:40:06,000 --> 01:40:11,000
built the Light and before we really founded

813
01:40:11,000 --> 01:40:16,000
Newmores, he tried his hand at more

814
01:40:16,000 --> 01:40:21,000
mercenary work. So he was very into

815
01:40:21,000 --> 01:40:26,000
individual fighting and maybe not necessarily security detail. And now he

816
01:40:26,000 --> 01:40:31,000
prefers to help people that were in the positions that he was in.

817
01:40:31,000 --> 01:40:36,000
He has taken more of a hand to

818
01:40:36,000 --> 01:40:41,000
self help talks and making sure the mental health of Newmores is what it can be

819
01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:46,000
at the top rather than security. Which we thought would be a better angle.

820
01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:51,000
Security is very good and it's very important, but the mental health of people who are living this long

821
01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:56,000
is more imperative, we believe.

822
01:40:56,000 --> 01:41:01,000
You should watch his tapes. They're very good.

823
01:41:01,000 --> 01:41:06,000
They're like self help tapes? Yes, very much.

824
01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:11,000
Yes, he likes

825
01:41:11,000 --> 01:41:16,000
helping

826
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:21,000
the masculinity, which is something

827
01:41:21,000 --> 01:41:26,000
which is a dying breed nowadays. He likes to make sure that it's

828
01:41:26,000 --> 01:41:31,000
kept up and people respect and are loving themselves more.

829
01:41:31,000 --> 01:41:36,000
Which he has been. Again, ever since we were little, he's always enjoyed

830
01:41:36,000 --> 01:41:41,000
that side of him.

831
01:41:41,000 --> 01:41:46,000
It's a shame.

832
01:41:46,000 --> 01:41:51,000
What is? I am a man or a person,

833
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:56,000
a plant of science, but I am also a plant of

834
01:41:56,000 --> 01:42:01,000
religion. You understand

835
01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:06,000
passion when you see it. You see the fervor

836
01:42:06,000 --> 01:42:11,000
when you're truly dedicated to something,

837
01:42:11,000 --> 01:42:16,000
to someone. I cannot say, just

838
01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:21,000
from what has occurred today,

839
01:42:21,000 --> 01:42:26,000
that that seems passion.

840
01:42:26,000 --> 01:42:31,000
Would you say that that's

841
01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:36,000
a fair evaluation? Keeping passion

842
01:42:36,000 --> 01:42:41,000
when you've been alive for as long as we have is

843
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:46,000
difficult. He keeps it

844
01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:51,000
all the same, but I would be lying to you if I was to say that

845
01:42:51,000 --> 01:42:56,000
I do not understand.

846
01:42:56,000 --> 01:43:01,000
It's something that is difficult to maintain when you are

847
01:43:01,000 --> 01:43:06,000
in a position that we are in.

848
01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:11,000
I also wanted to mention Venus.

849
01:43:11,000 --> 01:43:16,000
I, of course, have not interacted with her for too long,

850
01:43:16,000 --> 01:43:21,000
but

851
01:43:21,000 --> 01:43:26,000
the introduction of all of us,

852
01:43:26,000 --> 01:43:31,000
you know,

853
01:43:31,000 --> 01:43:36,000
them saying, you know, my good friend, Theriac, who I've known for so long.

854
01:43:36,000 --> 01:43:41,000
As a business person, that seems interesting.

855
01:43:41,000 --> 01:43:46,000
Truly, I do understand, and she has always been that way.

856
01:43:46,000 --> 01:43:51,000
She loves knowing people and gets so excited when new people come to the city.

857
01:43:51,000 --> 01:43:56,000
She loves her movies, she loves films and her songs,

858
01:43:56,000 --> 01:44:01,000
but the thing that she loves above

859
01:44:01,000 --> 01:44:06,000
others is knowing people. I do apologize. This is something

860
01:44:06,000 --> 01:44:11,000
I will bring up to her.

861
01:44:11,000 --> 01:44:16,000
Again, I appreciate you saying this and bringing this forward. It means that we will have

862
01:44:16,000 --> 01:44:21,000
more of a talk about it, definitely.

863
01:44:21,000 --> 01:44:26,000
I understand that she has a bravado, a presence,

864
01:44:26,000 --> 01:44:31,000
a certain bombast.

865
01:44:31,000 --> 01:44:36,000
As

866
01:44:36,000 --> 01:44:41,000
a founder,

867
01:44:41,000 --> 01:44:46,000
it seems in poor taste to be so establishing a relationship

868
01:44:46,000 --> 01:44:51,000
when we had literally met just seconds before.

869
01:44:51,000 --> 01:44:56,000
You understand. Yes, I don't need to...

870
01:44:56,000 --> 01:45:01,000
I understand that you know

871
01:45:01,000 --> 01:45:06,000
how these types of businesses are run.

872
01:45:06,000 --> 01:45:11,000
I would like you to know that when it comes to

873
01:45:11,000 --> 01:45:16,000
the people who are in charge of these businesses

874
01:45:16,000 --> 01:45:21,000
and the people who run these things,

875
01:45:21,000 --> 01:45:26,000
we have the father of the Ulhethna, we have Quinn

876
01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:31,000
Heilock, the people who are important and matter. I am the connector.

877
01:45:31,000 --> 01:45:36,000
I'm the person who people care about knowing.

878
01:45:36,000 --> 01:45:41,000
They, both of them, have such...

879
01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:46,000
I love them both dearly as

880
01:45:46,000 --> 01:45:51,000
anyone loves their family, but they are here because

881
01:45:51,000 --> 01:45:56,000
they are my brother and sister and not because

882
01:45:56,000 --> 01:46:01,000
they're business people. When it comes to

883
01:46:01,000 --> 01:46:06,000
the businesses and those things, I will be your point of contact

884
01:46:06,000 --> 01:46:11,000
and I do apologize. They have their passion and their loves,

885
01:46:11,000 --> 01:46:16,000
but people know Venus

886
01:46:16,000 --> 01:46:21,000
and I will tell others that Venus spoke out of hand and out of turn

887
01:46:21,000 --> 01:46:26,000
and I will speak to her. I appreciate it again. Thank you so much for bringing that forward.

888
01:46:26,000 --> 01:46:31,000
I fully understand, not through experience,

889
01:46:31,000 --> 01:46:36,000
but through context, the situation you've been placed in.

890
01:46:36,000 --> 01:46:41,000
And I must say, although

891
01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:46,000
all three of you are founders, you are the

892
01:46:46,000 --> 01:46:51,000
foundiest.

893
01:46:51,000 --> 01:46:56,000
And of all the people to crash land on my planet,

894
01:46:56,000 --> 01:47:01,000
I'm glad that it was yourself to do so.

895
01:47:01,000 --> 01:47:06,000
If there's anything I can help you with, Therac,

896
01:47:06,000 --> 01:47:11,000
I would love to help you there. I understand that you don't want to be here forever,

897
01:47:11,000 --> 01:47:16,000
so we can call a ship for you to get you onto

898
01:47:16,000 --> 01:47:21,000
somewhere else. That is deeply appreciated.

899
01:47:21,000 --> 01:47:26,000
I will need to reconvene with my entourage

900
01:47:26,000 --> 01:47:31,000
as far as what the actual next steps beyond

901
01:47:31,000 --> 01:47:36,000
just returning to the atom list, because

902
01:47:36,000 --> 01:47:41,000
frankly, since landing, a lot of our goals have shifted slightly,

903
01:47:41,000 --> 01:47:46,000
so I do think we will be staying for a period of time.

904
01:47:46,000 --> 01:47:51,000
I don't mean to imply that we are going to

905
01:47:51,000 --> 01:47:56,000
cropdust you or anything of the sort, but...

906
01:47:56,000 --> 01:48:01,000
As long as you're here, we can keep conversations open, and you're open to stay

907
01:48:01,000 --> 01:48:06,000
for as long as you need. Thank you, Aphrodite.

908
01:48:06,000 --> 01:48:11,000
Thank you, Founder Theriac. Is that standard Founder Aphrodite?

909
01:48:11,000 --> 01:48:16,000
Aphrodite is quite okay. I appreciate it.

910
01:48:16,000 --> 01:48:21,000
A lot of the people in this city, they call me Director

911
01:48:21,000 --> 01:48:26,000
or Founder, and all this Aphrodite, I

912
01:48:26,000 --> 01:48:31,000
far prefer. I like that. Whatever your

913
01:48:31,000 --> 01:48:36,000
preference is, of course. Thank you.

914
01:48:36,000 --> 01:48:41,000
And we'll leave.

915
01:48:41,000 --> 01:48:46,000
Across the

916
01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:51,000
city, I guess.

917
01:48:51,000 --> 01:48:56,000
I can scrap, walk

918
01:48:56,000 --> 01:49:01,000
in the path of the light. The city sprawls out

919
01:49:01,000 --> 01:49:06,000
in front of you. You are outside of the manor at this point. You weren't

920
01:49:06,000 --> 01:49:11,000
stopped as you walked out, as you are esteemed guests, so it matters

921
01:49:11,000 --> 01:49:16,000
not. You see the

922
01:49:16,000 --> 01:49:21,000
burning sun, which you have attained. The crystal is inside.

923
01:49:21,000 --> 01:49:26,000
Above the sun is the other half of the city. It curves

924
01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:31,000
round to meet you. This inside of a dome, as it were.

925
01:49:31,000 --> 01:49:36,000
Scrap. Hands over their eyes.

926
01:49:36,000 --> 01:49:41,000
How the fuck are we getting up there?

927
01:49:41,000 --> 01:49:46,000
Oh! That should be no problem. We can

928
01:49:46,000 --> 01:49:51,000
do not do a lot of, you know,

929
01:49:51,000 --> 01:49:56,000
climbing. Yeah, but that's

930
01:49:56,000 --> 01:50:01,000
a thousand foot in the air. I don't think we can climb that far.

931
01:50:01,000 --> 01:50:06,000
I mean, there's some sort of

932
01:50:06,000 --> 01:50:11,000
wiring holding it in, right?

933
01:50:11,000 --> 01:50:16,000
As you were getting driven past, there's no wiring holding it.

934
01:50:16,000 --> 01:50:21,000
Oh, no, tell a lie. There are these

935
01:50:21,000 --> 01:50:26,000
small, like, very

936
01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:31,000
thick chains that are holding it in place in these, like, four corners of the

937
01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:36,000
city, but they don't look, like,

938
01:50:36,000 --> 01:50:41,000
climbable safe. However, when you were driving past the gardens on your

939
01:50:41,000 --> 01:50:46,000
way in, you saw that there were these vines that

940
01:50:46,000 --> 01:50:51,000
in this, like, more forested area, it looked wild,

941
01:50:51,000 --> 01:50:56,000
but in this forested area, there are these ivy

942
01:50:56,000 --> 01:51:01,000
vines that almost, like, cascade down from the

943
01:51:01,000 --> 01:51:06,000
sun into the garden. I'm not going to say

944
01:51:06,000 --> 01:51:11,000
it's easy, but, well, Scrap, how's your tail?

945
01:51:11,000 --> 01:51:16,000
Tensile.

946
01:51:16,000 --> 01:51:21,000
It's strong. Well, then you'll be fine.

947
01:51:21,000 --> 01:51:26,000
I'll guide you. Trust me, I have traversed

948
01:51:26,000 --> 01:51:31,000
the intricate pathways from the

949
01:51:31,000 --> 01:51:36,000
lower decks to the upper decks so many times. This is actually something I'm not

950
01:51:36,000 --> 01:51:41,000
terribly afraid of, and those vines,

951
01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:46,000
they look sturdy. They're...

952
01:51:46,000 --> 01:51:51,000
Plants are thicker than you think and stronger than you think.

953
01:51:51,000 --> 01:51:56,000
Alright, we can give it a go. I don't know if we can climb the whole

954
01:51:56,000 --> 01:52:01,000
thing without being caught, but I trust you.

955
01:52:01,000 --> 01:52:06,000
We can do that if you want.

956
01:52:06,000 --> 01:52:11,000
Well, let's on our way in if we see another route.

957
01:52:11,000 --> 01:52:16,000
We'll stay savvy, but I think we can

958
01:52:16,000 --> 01:52:21,000
stay fairly undetected.

959
01:52:21,000 --> 01:52:26,000
We just have to keep our wits about us.

960
01:52:26,000 --> 01:52:31,000
I'm going to very confidently lead in

961
01:52:31,000 --> 01:52:36,000
to the gardens. So the gardens is the name for what

962
01:52:36,000 --> 01:52:41,000
could be a small town-sized, almost

963
01:52:41,000 --> 01:52:46,000
a small national park. It is

964
01:52:46,000 --> 01:52:51,000
full of trees and seemingly wildlife that

965
01:52:51,000 --> 01:52:56,000
lives here.

966
01:52:56,000 --> 01:53:01,000
There's a small way in that almost blocks your vision of the sky up top through the

967
01:53:01,000 --> 01:53:06,000
overhang of trees.

968
01:53:06,000 --> 01:53:11,000
There are these walkable paths that you can walk.

969
01:53:11,000 --> 01:53:16,000
Possible man-made river? Or maybe it's just a natural river that they have

970
01:53:16,000 --> 01:53:21,000
in the park.

971
01:53:21,000 --> 01:53:26,000
You can see it in this huge area that

972
01:53:26,000 --> 01:53:31,000
now centers this whole

973
01:53:31,000 --> 01:53:36,000
park. Walking in, you see a few other

974
01:53:36,000 --> 01:53:41,000
denizens of this upper, very nice region. A few times you have to

975
01:53:41,000 --> 01:53:46,000
see Venus walking past, but then you realize it's not her.

976
01:53:46,000 --> 01:53:51,000
You get to

977
01:53:51,000 --> 01:53:56,000
about a 30 to 40 foot rock face

978
01:53:56,000 --> 01:54:01,000
where these vines have almost rested and then began to

979
01:54:01,000 --> 01:54:06,000
overtake. You can see the pock marks of where these vines have

980
01:54:06,000 --> 01:54:11,000
grown and been cut away, clearly in an effort to keep it

981
01:54:11,000 --> 01:54:16,000
maintained so people don't try what you're about to try.

982
01:54:16,000 --> 01:54:21,000
Okay, so this getting to the vines is going to be the tougher part, I think.

983
01:54:21,000 --> 01:54:26,000
But we're both mysterious

984
01:54:26,000 --> 01:54:31,000
and skillful, aren't we?

985
01:54:31,000 --> 01:54:36,000
Done tougher things. I've gotten through worse scrapes.

986
01:54:36,000 --> 01:54:41,000
You say that sometimes.

987
01:54:41,000 --> 01:54:46,000
I believe it too. I think we can. We just need to keep our wits about us and make sure we don't accidentally

988
01:54:46,000 --> 01:54:51,000
piss anyone off. If anyone asks, we're just enthusiastic climbers

989
01:54:51,000 --> 01:54:56,000
and we're here on Case of Dr. Theriak.

990
01:54:56,000 --> 01:55:01,000
We're just climbing. I like climbing.

991
01:55:01,000 --> 01:55:06,000
That remains true, whether or not

992
01:55:06,000 --> 01:55:11,000
we get caught. So, okay, we're going to go

993
01:55:11,000 --> 01:55:16,000
as quick as we can. As soon as we get over the

994
01:55:16,000 --> 01:55:21,000
wires and to the vines, we just go up as quietly and as quickly as

995
01:55:21,000 --> 01:55:26,000
possible. And I want to just ask you something before we go over.

996
01:55:26,000 --> 01:55:31,000
Scrap, you know Void

997
01:55:31,000 --> 01:55:36,000
well, right? Has anyone ever

998
01:55:36,000 --> 01:55:41,000
wanted dead by them?

999
01:55:41,000 --> 01:55:46,000
And not gotten dead?

1000
01:55:46,000 --> 01:55:51,000
I don't know what you want me to say. You can tell me the honest truth.

1001
01:55:51,000 --> 01:55:56,000
I just want to know what my, you know,

1002
01:55:56,000 --> 01:56:01,000
chances are. I want to- Alright, they are two different things.

1003
01:56:01,000 --> 01:56:06,000
Alright, there's two ways that you get out of a Void contract.

1004
01:56:06,000 --> 01:56:11,000
The person who made the contract

1005
01:56:11,000 --> 01:56:16,000
calls the request

1006
01:56:16,000 --> 01:56:21,000
or you go through so many Void members

1007
01:56:21,000 --> 01:56:26,000
that it becomes unsustainable to keep throwing people at you.

1008
01:56:26,000 --> 01:56:31,000
That's how you get that contract off.

1009
01:56:31,000 --> 01:56:36,000
For you saying, is it feasible? Well, you are

1010
01:56:36,000 --> 01:56:41,000
going to be incredibly safe.

1011
01:56:41,000 --> 01:56:46,000
I will never let anyone

1012
01:56:46,000 --> 01:56:51,000
get close to you in that regard ever.

1013
01:56:51,000 --> 01:56:56,000
You are going to be fine. I'm going to promise you

1014
01:56:56,000 --> 01:57:01,000
as someone who has done this for a long time

1015
01:57:01,000 --> 01:57:06,000
close to 30 years I've been a member of Void.

1016
01:57:06,000 --> 01:57:11,000
Used to be Void. I think the Void has done genuinely a lot of good for me.

1017
01:57:11,000 --> 01:57:16,000
They have saved my life countless times. They have helped and they've put

1018
01:57:16,000 --> 01:57:21,000
food on my table and they've given me somewhere to live.

1019
01:57:21,000 --> 01:57:26,000
I am the captain of the Patchwork first before any affiliation.

1020
01:57:26,000 --> 01:57:31,000
And you are a member of the Patchwork. You are not going anywhere.

1021
01:57:31,000 --> 01:57:36,000
Alright?

1022
01:57:36,000 --> 01:57:41,000
I like looks around

1023
01:57:41,000 --> 01:57:46,000
and is like, go!

1024
01:57:46,000 --> 01:57:51,000
Go now! And shoves scrap over the little

1025
01:57:51,000 --> 01:57:56,000
railing and scurries to

1026
01:57:56,000 --> 01:58:01,000
the vine. There is still this rock face that you have to climb up

1027
01:58:01,000 --> 01:58:06,000
but even when you get on top of that there is this. You are still slightly covered

1028
01:58:06,000 --> 01:58:11,000
by trees so you won't be spotted by

1029
01:58:11,000 --> 01:58:16,000
other members at all.

1030
01:58:16,000 --> 01:58:21,000
I like just kind of positioning herself with this vine

1031
01:58:21,000 --> 01:58:26,000
and just tugging on it and testing how strong they are

1032
01:58:26,000 --> 01:58:31,000
and wrapping her tail around it

1033
01:58:31,000 --> 01:58:36,000
and figuring that out.

1034
01:58:36,000 --> 01:58:41,000
Scrap, you hired us for just one

1035
01:58:41,000 --> 01:58:46,000
job and now I know that we're a

1036
01:58:46,000 --> 01:58:51,000
crew but I've made terrible mistakes

1037
01:58:51,000 --> 01:58:56,000
and bringing

1038
01:58:56,000 --> 01:59:01,000
void attention to your ship and

1039
01:59:01,000 --> 01:59:06,000
to Skye and I mean

1040
01:59:06,000 --> 01:59:11,000
I know I technically won that

1041
01:59:11,000 --> 01:59:16,000
death race but

1042
01:59:16,000 --> 01:59:21,000
I've brought more attention on us and maybe more attention on

1043
01:59:21,000 --> 01:59:26,000
Tommy and

1044
01:59:26,000 --> 01:59:31,000
those back on Saga and I don't think I really fully understood

1045
01:59:31,000 --> 01:59:36,000
what we were doing and now

1046
01:59:36,000 --> 01:59:41,000
it's starting to become more clear and I don't think I've

1047
01:59:41,000 --> 01:59:46,000
done all the right things and I don't know why

1048
01:59:46,000 --> 01:59:51,000
you would fight

1049
01:59:51,000 --> 01:59:56,000
something so dark and terrible for

1050
01:59:56,000 --> 02:00:01,000
me.

1051
02:00:01,000 --> 02:00:06,000
I think I know first hand about making mistakes and having to deal with it.

1052
02:00:06,000 --> 02:00:11,000
There are cities worth of people

1053
02:00:11,000 --> 02:00:16,000
on Saga who aren't part of

1054
02:00:16,000 --> 02:00:21,000
void at all but would wish and command me dead.

1055
02:00:21,000 --> 02:00:26,000
I get it, I know

1056
02:00:26,000 --> 02:00:31,000
it's

1057
02:00:31,000 --> 02:00:36,000
being alive

1058
02:00:36,000 --> 02:00:41,000
living a sentient life, it's about making mistakes

1059
02:00:41,000 --> 02:00:46,000
but you will all the time over and over and over again. There's no chance that

1060
02:00:46,000 --> 02:00:51,000
you are going to live any form of life and not fuck up in some way

1061
02:00:51,000 --> 02:00:56,000
but

1062
02:00:56,000 --> 02:01:01,000
you will also be forgiven by others. You can

1063
02:01:01,000 --> 02:01:06,000
speak to people who don't know of the previous mistakes and as long as

1064
02:01:06,000 --> 02:01:11,000
you have done your best to make amends and try then that's all that

1065
02:01:11,000 --> 02:01:16,000
matters. I know that you've made mistakes, I've also made mistakes.

1066
02:01:16,000 --> 02:01:21,000
My mistakes are going to catch up to me, Thiriaq's mistakes are going to catch up to them,

1067
02:01:21,000 --> 02:01:26,000
Azam's mistakes are going to catch up to them, Skye's mistakes are going to catch up, Flare, Keelan,

1068
02:01:26,000 --> 02:01:31,000
Estrid, who I'm a little shaky on, or everyone's mistakes are going to catch up to them.

1069
02:01:31,000 --> 02:01:36,000
But we're a team, that's the point. We are here

1070
02:01:36,000 --> 02:01:41,000
together.

1071
02:01:41,000 --> 02:01:46,000
Do you ever wonder, I mean you've left,

1072
02:01:46,000 --> 02:01:51,000
I didn't know everything

1073
02:01:51,000 --> 02:01:56,000
about Saga and

1074
02:01:56,000 --> 02:02:01,000
why things, I don't, I still don't know

1075
02:02:01,000 --> 02:02:06,000
exactly why things are the way they

1076
02:02:06,000 --> 02:02:11,000
are there, but I'm, I feel like it's coming together.

1077
02:02:11,000 --> 02:02:16,000
And we left and

1078
02:02:16,000 --> 02:02:21,000
I don't know, when we helped

1079
02:02:21,000 --> 02:02:26,000
when we helped Neutrino Downs, there was a part of me

1080
02:02:26,000 --> 02:02:31,000
that felt like I wish we were helping Saga.

1081
02:02:31,000 --> 02:02:36,000
Do you ever feel that way?

1082
02:02:36,000 --> 02:02:41,000
Yeah, Saga is my home, Lower Dex is,

1083
02:02:41,000 --> 02:02:46,000
you know, they, the Upper Dex

1084
02:02:46,000 --> 02:02:51,000
continuously try to kill us, but they're just so strong that they just won't go down,

1085
02:02:51,000 --> 02:02:56,000
and yeah, I want to help, I absolutely do, and

1086
02:02:56,000 --> 02:03:01,000
I just don't,

1087
02:03:01,000 --> 02:03:06,000
one day, yeah, I know I will, I'll help

1088
02:03:06,000 --> 02:03:11,000
with whatever is needed, if I can.

1089
02:03:11,000 --> 02:03:16,000
And I mean, looks around at the, the like massive city

1090
02:03:16,000 --> 02:03:21,000
that is thousands of miles underground.

1091
02:03:21,000 --> 02:03:26,000
Take this as a test run. We're just eight people.

1092
02:03:26,000 --> 02:03:31,000
And we're trying here.

1093
02:03:31,000 --> 02:03:36,000
Maybe afterward we can go back to Tommy

1094
02:03:36,000 --> 02:03:41,000
and try again. Maybe that's,

1095
02:03:41,000 --> 02:03:46,000
maybe that's one way

1096
02:03:46,000 --> 02:03:51,000
out of the mess I've found myself in as well.

1097
02:03:51,000 --> 02:03:56,000
You said that

1098
02:03:56,000 --> 02:04:01,000
if you're too hard to kill,

1099
02:04:01,000 --> 02:04:06,000
they just stop trying. If we

1100
02:04:06,000 --> 02:04:11,000
get the Lower Dex

1101
02:04:11,000 --> 02:04:16,000
out of that situation,

1102
02:04:16,000 --> 02:04:21,000
we destroy that situation, that,

1103
02:04:21,000 --> 02:04:26,000
then maybe,

1104
02:04:26,000 --> 02:04:31,000
maybe they won't see me as

1105
02:04:31,000 --> 02:04:36,000
a target anymore either.

1106
02:04:36,000 --> 02:04:41,000
Just it could be a side effect.

1107
02:04:41,000 --> 02:04:46,000
I don't know if protecting the Lower Dex is going to matter much to the void.

1108
02:04:46,000 --> 02:04:51,000
There's a heavy presence there, but there are heavy presence because people are easy to manipulate there.

1109
02:04:51,000 --> 02:04:56,000
Helping them might make it worse.

1110
02:04:56,000 --> 02:05:01,000
That doesn't mean we can't try.

1111
02:05:01,000 --> 02:05:06,000
But if the Lower Dex are stronger and aren't

1112
02:05:06,000 --> 02:05:11,000
under that

1113
02:05:11,000 --> 02:05:16,000
god damn floor,

1114
02:05:16,000 --> 02:05:21,000
I don't know, maybe,

1115
02:05:21,000 --> 02:05:26,000
maybe the whole illusion

1116
02:05:26,000 --> 02:05:31,000
falls and they don't have the same

1117
02:05:31,000 --> 02:05:36,000
hold that they did. It's definitely worth a try.

1118
02:05:36,000 --> 02:05:41,000
And if they're going to kill me anyway, I might as well do something,

1119
02:05:41,000 --> 02:05:46,000
you know, good on the way. That's, that's, that's the story I live

1120
02:05:46,000 --> 02:05:51,000
by. Hey, if we're going to die anyway, we might as well go out doing

1121
02:05:51,000 --> 02:05:56,000
something. Well, get your tail up

1122
02:05:56,000 --> 02:06:01,000
and, and Ike wraps a tail around

1123
02:06:01,000 --> 02:06:06,000
the vine and starts to, like, do sort of like a little crawl where

1124
02:06:06,000 --> 02:06:11,000
like her tail is like winding up and she's crawling with her

1125
02:06:11,000 --> 02:06:16,000
hands as well.

1126
02:06:16,000 --> 02:06:21,000
Give me a check here. Can I argue acrobatics?

1127
02:06:21,000 --> 02:06:26,000
You can argue acrobatics. Yeah, sure. Give me an acrobatics.

1128
02:06:26,000 --> 02:06:31,000
Jesus. Alright. Alright. I got an 18, so I guess scrap also is able to

1129
02:06:31,000 --> 02:06:36,000
keep up in some way.

1130
02:06:36,000 --> 02:06:41,000
After about 40 foot of climbing straight up, it

1131
02:06:41,000 --> 02:06:46,000
does begin to get difficult because this is climbing straight up.

1132
02:06:46,000 --> 02:06:51,000
In, in Saga in the lower decks, you're climbing through vents. There's moments to rest.

1133
02:06:51,000 --> 02:06:56,000
If you go up the ladder, you can still like rest on the ladder a little bit. This is just like a

1134
02:06:56,000 --> 02:07:01,000
pure haul up. So it starts to get a little difficult when you get to about 40 foot

1135
02:07:01,000 --> 02:07:06,000
up. You have a while left, like yet. It's, it's,

1136
02:07:06,000 --> 02:07:11,000
it's looking like you've just started. If you want, you can give me another one.

1137
02:07:11,000 --> 02:07:16,000
I do want to give you another one. That was not good.

1138
02:07:16,000 --> 02:07:21,000
So my second acrobatics is only a 10.

1139
02:07:21,000 --> 02:07:26,000
I tell you what. Okay.

1140
02:07:26,000 --> 02:07:31,000
I'm going to mark that down as a failure to have this have some form of

1141
02:07:31,000 --> 02:07:36,000
you know, coherence. I'm going to, we're going to have a three failure, three success

1142
02:07:36,000 --> 02:07:41,000
ability check to this. We have one success and one

1143
02:07:41,000 --> 02:07:46,000
failure. The DC of this is going to go up every single time you are climbing it.

1144
02:07:46,000 --> 02:07:51,000
With the, the, the, the downside being

1145
02:07:51,000 --> 02:07:56,000
hot, like heavier, the closer you are to the, to the top.

1146
02:07:56,000 --> 02:08:01,000
So that's, that's one success, one failure. This is going to be a check of

1147
02:08:01,000 --> 02:08:06,000
20 for the second. Okay.

1148
02:08:06,000 --> 02:08:11,000
I have a question. Sure.

1149
02:08:11,000 --> 02:08:16,000
Is, as we get up, do I see anything nearby,

1150
02:08:16,000 --> 02:08:21,000
anything that has any sort of electric charge to it?

1151
02:08:21,000 --> 02:08:26,000
Not nearby you as you are very much climbing a natural,

1152
02:08:26,000 --> 02:08:31,000
like a, like natural vines you're climbing up. Yep.

1153
02:08:31,000 --> 02:08:36,000
But the sun that is shining this light is

1154
02:08:36,000 --> 02:08:41,000
an absolute like symphony

1155
02:08:41,000 --> 02:08:46,000
of noise. It is so like powerful when it comes to

1156
02:08:46,000 --> 02:08:51,000
electric charge. All right. It's getting trickier.

1157
02:08:51,000 --> 02:08:56,000
So just hang in there Scrap. How are you doing? Yep.

1158
02:08:56,000 --> 02:09:01,000
I'm fine. I'm, I'm, I'm keeping up. Okay.

1159
02:09:01,000 --> 02:09:06,000
Oh my goodness.

1160
02:09:06,000 --> 02:09:11,000
You are like 250 foot in the air at this point.

1161
02:09:11,000 --> 02:09:16,000
If, if this, these vines were to break, you would die.

1162
02:09:16,000 --> 02:09:21,000
Like you would crack on the ground and, and splat. Yep.

1163
02:09:21,000 --> 02:09:26,000
Understood. Yeah. It's very good. You're about 150 foot

1164
02:09:26,000 --> 02:09:31,000
away from the, the, the sun itself.

1165
02:09:31,000 --> 02:09:36,000
Just hauling yourself up. This is going to be a 25.

1166
02:09:36,000 --> 02:09:41,000
As I am getting closer up, how close in,

1167
02:09:41,000 --> 02:09:46,000
in feet roughly is the sun? A hundred and fifty.

1168
02:09:46,000 --> 02:09:51,000
A hundred and fifty. A hundred and fifty. Yep. I can. What is this?

1169
02:09:51,000 --> 02:09:56,000
This is telepathic message. I don't know if it will work, but

1170
02:09:56,000 --> 02:10:01,000
I think that Meg is going to try it.

1171
02:10:01,000 --> 02:10:06,000
As she's getting closer and just say, this is going to be so stupid.

1172
02:10:06,000 --> 02:10:11,000
So sorry. You're connecting. Are you trying to connect to the other crystal? Is that what you're trying to do?

1173
02:10:11,000 --> 02:10:16,000
Yeah. Okay. Hi.

1174
02:10:16,000 --> 02:10:21,000
Don't be alarmed. We're coming

1175
02:10:21,000 --> 02:10:26,000
to you because we're friends, I think,

1176
02:10:26,000 --> 02:10:31,000
with the other crystal that's like you.

1177
02:10:31,000 --> 02:10:36,000
Give me a computer's role.

1178
02:10:36,000 --> 02:10:41,000
28. As you reach out,

1179
02:10:41,000 --> 02:10:46,000
there is immediate interference. You feel a buzz and a crackle in your

1180
02:10:46,000 --> 02:10:51,000
mind as you know that you connect to this crystal.

1181
02:10:51,000 --> 02:10:56,000
You speak some words and in your backpack, as I imagine you have the original crystal with you.

1182
02:10:56,000 --> 02:11:01,000
Uh huh, of course. Yeah. It

1183
02:11:01,000 --> 02:11:06,000
rumbles and the original crystal that you had, who you nicknamed Spot,

1184
02:11:06,000 --> 02:11:11,000
floats slightly out of your bag and you hear in your mind

1185
02:11:11,000 --> 02:11:16,000
that I am pulling.

1186
02:11:16,000 --> 02:11:21,000
I am pulling. I am pulling at threads

1187
02:11:21,000 --> 02:11:26,000
here. I just don't think we can keep going to this same degree. I know.

1188
02:11:26,000 --> 02:11:31,000
But Wolf, we have to try. We are so

1189
02:11:31,000 --> 02:11:36,000
close and he will kill everything. I know.

1190
02:11:36,000 --> 02:11:41,000
Believe me. I know. I know.

1191
02:11:41,000 --> 02:11:46,000
Tell me about yourself.

1192
02:11:46,000 --> 02:11:51,000
I am Doctor Wolf and I am going to

1193
02:11:51,000 --> 02:11:56,000
darken the Atomless Sea. Let's get back to work.

1194
02:11:56,000 --> 02:12:01,000
Holy smokes, everybody.

1195
02:12:01,000 --> 02:12:06,000
That is the latest episode of the Atomless. Thank you so much for joining

1196
02:12:06,000 --> 02:12:11,000
us. I want to say a special thank you before we head out. Thank you to

1197
02:12:11,000 --> 02:12:16,000
all of our patrons and supporters, especially when we are so many

1198
02:12:16,000 --> 02:12:21,000
between episodes. But thank you so, so much for your patience and for your support.

1199
02:12:21,000 --> 02:12:26,000
And a special thank you to our $15 Patrick Support patrons, Sunny420,

1200

Mork Mork Mork, Meebo444, Mary,

1201

Doofinious, Don Hughes, Daniel Naruda, Beck Rhodes,

1202
02:12:36,000 --> 02:12:41,000
and Anna. Thank you so much for your support. You are so

1203
02:12:41,000 --> 02:12:46,000
appreciated. And thank you to our sponsors, Euroforge.

1204
02:12:46,000 --> 02:12:57,000
We'll see you next time in the Atomless Sea, folks.

1205
02:13:16,000 --> 02:13:21,000
Thank you.

1206
02:13:46,000 --> 02:13:51,000
Thank you.
