Hey pants people if you love the original music
we have in the podcast you can find it all on
Spotify and I think Apple and like, you know
the places you get music just search Music from
the fantasy pants podcast. I bet if you just
search fantasy pants and probably come up check
it out Startula Rune is not here, and neither
is Auryn. And you know why? Because Jon's still
here, and he doesn't want to hear from them.
He hates them. Oh, come on. No, I can hear for
him. That's fine. Did you just not write something
for that? They already left. Oh, OK. Sick. God.
All right. Awesome. No, I didn't write it. I
couldn't think of anything to write. It's a challenge.
It's hard. You have the manager all the time.
I'll say we're out of time. That's, yeah. I followed
some of that. Got my excuses out of the way.
Welcome back, John. Well, you didn't go anywhere.
What's up? I just kept standing here the whole
time. We just went somewhere for a week, but
we're back. Hey. I'm sure I've been doing other
stuff during that week in between, but. I'm so
pumped. This is a weird, wild, fun situation.
It's such a weird thing, but I'm so excited to
see more characters kinda doing cool stuff. We
are ramping up. We are in the 11th hour of this
campaign. Everything is building into some huge
finale, and even this, even side adventures like
this are all building. We have four arcs simultaneously
happening, and it's crazy. I thought about this
a lot, and I was telling Steve about this earlier.
We were on a walk, and... way back when you said
something to me and you said to the past people
about how you designed Zebulon as a character
to be built around the concept that anybody can
be a hero. And I feel like as a show that was
a theme we had going for a while and we've kind
of surpassed that theme now and grown to this
point where it's like, everyone can be a hero.
You know, suddenly Pepper and Paloma and Rizzo
are like crucial parts of what might turn the
tides in this finale. Everyone everyone working
together all the pants people bring in their
characters Every spotlight luminary. They all
have a part to play. They all have a they don't
carry a piece of this puzzle and I'm just so
pumped I don't know you pumped. Yeah, I'm super
pumped. Yeah, I'm pumped cuz you mentioned that
like our Performance here could in some way affect
the outcome. It really can. Yeah, it's pretty
neat really can It's scary, but oh, yeah, we're
going to die. Right now, as you're facing this,
other forces are working to like, and the other
thing is you might die, but even if you die at
this point, you've brought the chaos. You brought
all three of these things here. Chaos is happening.
Xena's accomplishing her goals up above. If you
can keep the focus, keep this thing busy, keep
the worms thrashing, keep the celestials fighting,
keep the distraction going. then maybe Zini can
finish the job, whether you live or die. But
obviously the more soldiers that live, the better
the outcome for the next big thing. With that.
You guys want to get into a dog fight? Plane
style magic carpet dog fight? Like an in the
air dog fight. Dog fight? We're going to have
the dogs fight. Like a Red Baron dog fight. Classic
Red Baron World War II, except not because your
magic carpet's in the desert dog fight. We love
that fight. That's a good fight. Hell yeah. I'm
going to, before I do the cool music, I'll explain
my rules now. Because there's going to be some
new. uh mechanics again because i can't i don't
want you guys crazy i want you guys to go to
an episode without me explaining rules for 20
minutes uh that'd be so lame so dogfight rules
here we go combat's gonna flow as normal but
there's gonna be one major change i don't know
why i said one there's a lot of changes but one
this is the first major change one root change
in the change tree that branches out the other
changes at the end of each round I'll be rolling
for certain effects that only occur based on
what altitude zone you are in. So zones, that's
the big thing here, right? There are three of
them, three zones you can be in in this fight.
There is open sky, the central zone. You have
a map you have open there. So it's kind of like,
you'll see there's three different tiers of spots
you can be in. That's kind of the - Right down
the middle. It's right now we're doing a, we
did our theater of the mind arc. We had that
going. We have our map arc going. Now we have
our right in the middle arc, kind of a theater
of the mind, kind of a map arc. Yeah, open sky,
central zone. Visibility here is very clear.
There are no extra threats to support or hamper
you, but at the end of each round, I will roll
to assign you tails, essentially enemy adds that
are chasing after you. The number of these available
to attack you is determined by how many worms
you're able to bring into the fight. Thankfully,
you brought all three, so you're not gonna get
absolutely swarmed. It could've gotten really
bad. These enemies will be set on you and they
will stay on you unless something is done by
you or an ally to get rid of them. Tails will
not be able to attack you until the very end
of the following round following all the other
end of round effects. So your goal if you get
Tails is to get rid of them or tank them when
the time comes. Cause they're going to just rush
you into a bunch of damage and they'll keep building
as long as you stay in the middle zone. But apart
from Tails, you know, cause you're seeing the
Celestials flying around Pegasi and, and Hawley
fence. And they're going to start gathering on
top of you when they notice you for a long enough
in the clear sky. You know, time's a little different
here. We're not doing straight six seconds. You're
moving pretty far between attacks. That's open
sky. I'm not telling you to do the tail rolls.
So, middle zone, open sky, top zone, cloud cover.
The arcane mirage that hides the sky prison creates
an area that is heavily obscured. While in this
area, you are all blinded. At the end of each
round, any player in the cloud cover zone will
lose all tails. So simple enough, you can't see
anything, but if you end your turn there and
the round ends, your tails will be gone before
they can attack you. Simple. Bad things could
be added to that, you'll find out. And the bottom
zone is the cemetery itself. Flying near to the
surface will bring you and your adversaries within
purple worm attack range. At the end of each
round, any player in the cemetery zone will lose
all tails. Additionally, I'm gonna make a roll.
to determine if a purple worm, it's a 50 -50,
gets to make an attack on a player of the DM's
choice in the zone. So it's only gonna happen
to one of you. If you're all three there, I'll
only do it to one of you. If you succeed on the
roll, sorry, if you fail on the roll, I'm gonna
womp you. If you succeed on the roll and Gray
Allen is in the zone, I will womp him instead.
He will be attacked. We have. two additional
rules as well additional rule one going prone
on a carpet of flying will simply result there's
no really prone in this not going to have your
movement gone because i'm kind of not like considered
movement as deeply in this everything's got the
same fly speed essentially everything's gonna
be on you no matter what you do so what's gonna
happen is you will have to make a dc -16 dexterity
saving throw to see if you are knocked off of
the carpet If you fall in the cloud cover zone
and you fall all the way down, it will result
in 20 D6 damage. Falling in the open sky zone
will result in 10 D6 damage. Falling in the cemetery
zone will result in 3 D6 damage. We're counting
at 200 feet, 100 feet, and 30 feet. You will
fall down one zone each round until hitting ground
and taking damage. So if you are in the top zone,
every round you'll fall one zone. Someone might
be able to come and get you, do something for
you. Who knows? The corporate of flying, if you
lose, if you fall off of it will be lost in this
found with a seek action. Additional rule to
having two players running one carpet will put
it over the weight limit meaning that it will
take two consecutive Turns to climb to a higher
zone. So if you're down the bottom one person
falls off there You have to do all up on one
carpet. It takes two rounds to get out of the
worm pit So okay pretty gnarly and that's it.
It's all the rules. See that was fun We all learned
something today. All right sick. Can I tie the
rope from the bell onto my waist? Hell yeah.
You're moving this way. Okay. I like, Oh, cause
you're, cause if you follow the carpet, you're
okay. Yeah. Paloma's going to fall. I think you'd
be like, yeah, well that seems smart. Ties it
around. All right. I like it. Um, it's interesting
because if that happens, you're still not controlling
the carpets here. They're verbally commanded.
So you know what? You can be yelling to it and
yeah, it'll still move. I like that. I like that
a lot. Uh, like theoretically we could be Maybe
50 feet away for how long are these ropes 30
feet? You can tie yourself wherever I suppose
true. Yeah. Yeah, I would cut the bell off for
the most part. Okay, put it in my unlimited inventory
I think we have six things. Yeah, and then yeah
tied to my waist. Oh, yeah All right. So yeah
rules are weird, but I'll kind of I can go over
those we go we can learn as we go How dare you?
How dare you laugh at me? Are you just gonna
snort it? How dare you snort it? I just love
these random moments where you and I both hear
it. We just look at each other. Bullshit. I gave
you four buttons and it's so nice. So nice. I
was being polite. We don't have to. Alright,
sick. I'm putting the paralysis effect back on
this guy. Oh my god. You know what? That was
funny. You don't deserve it. It's the little
things, you know. I cannot wait to see you all
die. That is what's gonna happen. Oh yeah, this
is insane. Go ahead and roll for initiative.
Oh boy. Oh boy. What is Pepper's? I'll be Dex.
Oh my god, look at that awesome initiative roll.
More crit. More crit, okay. So that is a 23.
Yes. Nice. I can see your bonuses. Pepper. I
was gonna say, I was like, Pepper. Are you looking
at my sheet? Pepper's a fucking nine. Oh no.
No, Pepper. Maybe he sees this thing and he's
feeling scared. He's feeling scared. RZA. 17.
17. What? Too shabby, RZA. All of you. Moving
in chaos from below I'm starting you off in the
open sky zone moving up towards this creature
both sides purgling Towards each other you have
your target you have to slay this thing or die
trying and Paloma's just start this off You can
start in within range of this thing if you desire
or you can hold back You're setting this up.
You're setting the scene. Well, can you explain
my options? I can start within range, meaning
it's going to be following me and I can attack
it. You don't know who's going to go after it
on its turn, but you can attack this thing now.
I'm saying you guys are moving towards each other.
When this opens up, we'll say you're essentially
within 30 feet of the creature. Okay. Paloma's
going to move forward. You said our fly speed
is 60 feet? Yes. Paloma's gonna move forward
another 30 feet away from the flying lion guy.
And she's gonna throw her returning dagger. Okay,
all right. Good opener. Oh no, that's a nine.
A nine will not hit somehow. Okay, well luckily
she has an extra attack. and rolled a oh yeah
right does the return does it return yeah it
says returns after you take oh an attack action
though no after you use it to make a ranged attack
roll okay cool I can do two of those in a yeah
you throw it it's like you can see is it kind
of surges just we off course and before you know
it goes like you can tell immediately it's not
gonna hit right it's back in your hand the moment
you can get that calculation you're already throwing
again uh next one's not super great either just
a 15 not gonna hit okay this one actually does
cut some this thing kind of turn as you're moving
up and away consider the way you throw this thing
uh the dagger slices off a few of these radiant
white hairs which puff into life because they
are removed from the Sphinx. Oh boy, I think
I made it mad. I think it did. I think it did
make it mad. Is that your turn? It's my turn.
I'm so excited. Now you're all within 30 feet,
I said. Who will be my first target? One, two,
three, four, five, six. A six pepper, my friend.
You're the first to feel the lion's wrath. This
thing sees the frail rabbit, the easy prey. It
spoke of a hunt, and you are getting hunted.
It, boom, blasts towards you. It's going to make
two claw attacks. Claw attack one. 24 to hit,
will that hit? Nah, nah. Give me a second to
fill that back too. It'll be funny. Yeah, that
hits. It'll be funny. That's going to be a, ooh,
only a 18. Only an 18. 21. Sorry, that's wrong.
You want it? Yeah, they both fucking hit. All
right, let's do this thing. Oh my god. This is
so nasty. Can you get to Pepper? Yeah, I'm basically
starting this off with everyone. Everyone's moving
towards. He just slides to you immediately. Let's
see your blade That is 18 points of slashing
damage from the first clock I didn't get the
chance to rage yet. It's rough you have those
potions though bonus action potion and 20 points
of slash damage for the second What the fuck?
Welcome to the fight. So you took 38 points of
damage. 38 points of damage. Pepper, this thing
is on you like a predator pouncing upon a poor
small rabbit. It truly is a lion versus a rabbit.
Blood tears in the air, spray of it, white fur.
Holy shit. Pants people revolt David's gonna
kill a fan favorite. Oh, I'm gonna kill the shadow
pepper. But first I want to do something else
I'm gonna roar and this is where I get to have
so much fun it tears into you and excitement
just arcs its head up towards the sky and This
roar booms out washing over you all roar one
The First Roar, you might say, requires a wisdom
save and throw from all of you. As long as you're
within 500 feet. Are you within 500 feet of me?
Uh, so far, yes. Okay, cool. Alright, cool, cool,
cool. Uh, wisdom saving throws. Don't worry,
it's a high one. Uh, dirty 20. Hey, you bad.
10. 10, okay. Pepper, you don't. That's an 8.
Riza, Paloma, you've seen some shit. And I think
as you see like blood spray, your ally gets torn
apart immediately before you. This thing bloody
mouth rises, roars out to the heavens. You're
the only one that as this fear effect hits you,
you are unaffected by it. Riza and Pepper, you
are both under the frightened condition. For
one minute, so just for the fight. Really, really
bad. This is crazy. Hey, you could win. I believe
you. You can win. I believe in you. I believe
in you. That's my turn. That all? That's all.
Rizzo, that's you. All right, sick. Rizzo, you
just feel this primal. I mean, like, I love this.
You are a hunter, too. A predator, too. These
two figures see each other. I have that same
ability. Do you really? Yeah, I do. Is it also
daunting roar or is it a different one? This
is cool. This one is, I'll tell you, I'll give
you a little hint. This is a three tiered roar.
Okay, I have a baby version of it then. Every
roar gets worse. Oh, that's good. That was the
chill ass roar. Wait till the next two roars.
Oh my god. I told one now. So, is there any way
to be within 500 feet? She says there's any way
to not be within 500 feet? Of course not. It's
not like you can go to a different layer to get
out of the roar. The roar is just happening whether
we want it or not. The roar is always going to
happen. The important thing is to let other things
happen to you. Yeah, it's so fun. All right,
so First gonna do the fungal entity thing. Oh
hell. Yeah, so you just get covered up There's
something that's a bladed kind of claws of like
fungal claws in your arms big sort of fungal
tail I need two bonus actions. I have to wait
between two turns, but I'll start with the fungal
entity form which like grows like a big like
suit of like fungal armor making them look a
little bit more like an actual lion, okay and
Her flavor is gonna grow a much like more of
a barbed tail, but I can't actually do the functional
barbed tail until the next bonus action. I'm
gonna say this. You know what? I should be nice
here. You had moments moving into this fight.
You saw SkyHeads here moving in. How about we
give you your bonus action setups, right? You
should have rage going because you would have
rage going. Cool. So take... Let's pay take back
half that I should have given you the option
I didn't this is super nasty And I'm willing
to give you a work of the old bit here And now
you can take up extra bonus action too if you
want to have it. Oh sick you are both So I guess
I'll already be in fungal form because I have
to you know, it's the thing wild shape before
your rage so I think yeah, he's going to fungal
entity and already being that. Probably just
because he's right now beefy and I'm not thinking
that any of the spells are going to do that much.
Well how close is the line? I'll say you're all
close together when you move in. So he's within
five, ten feet of you, wherever you want to be.
He moved right to Pepper who was right by your
side. My plan, I was gonna hit him with a poison
spray, which is just a cantrip, but when you're
at a higher level, it's actually really nice.
Hell yeah. And then to try and do some bullshit.
So we're like 30 feet away currently. Well, we
were. But I think that's where we were, right?
So like that distance right there is theoretically
30 feet. You said that we have like 30 feet of
rope. And then that these carpets would fly without
us because they are... You can speak to them.
So yeah at this point I went up to the top. I
will say at this point He's more like on you
because he charged didn't had his turn. Okay,
so I should have moved things around Paloma kind
of moved actually back 60 feet away Would I get
an attack of opportunity on me if I went above
him into the clouds? Not yet because he was focusing
pepper and yet can't say for sure he was on you
I didn't really say it will say you're behind
pepper you you can move away I'm gonna do that.
Okay. And then I'm gonna go into a rage and then
with my... I actually have a rig of Featherfall
but I don't want to fall that slowly. I will
let my carpet kind of fly in cloud cover kind
of in cruise control and I'll... rappel down
with just the 30 feet of rope. Okay. And I'll,
while I'm doing that, I'll rage and take a couple
swings on him. All right. Oh, hell yeah. Oh,
so the carpet's up above and you're just dropping
down. Yeah. I love the, yeah, sails into the
clouds. You just leap down, hanging above this
guy. As you kind of roar, suddenly you're just
dropping down right towards this open maw. And
it's voice activated, right? Yes. OK, so I'm
not going to go all the way down. I'll go 10
feet away, so I'm not in his range. And I'm going
to hit him with my barbed tail, which has the
reach feature. And I guess I'll attack with the
advantage thing that barbarians get. Reckless
so I'll okay. I'll reckless first With a 10 -foot
reach melee attack. All right. All right. Yeah,
go for it. Oh Yeah, plus 7 so That was a dirty
20 I believe okay or 21 goes to 13 Nothing crazy
Five damage from that five damage you then the
next one is 21 21 hits all right uh nine damage
nine damage and then he'll like give a command
for the carpet to start pulling him back up hell
yeah hell yes you're like so you're guys are
right towards the top i don't want to be fully
up but i want to be like hell yeah hovering the
line between the clouds and him i'll say the
the space here is a little weird like each of
these spaces isn't exactly necessarily What it
really represents. So like you're at the very
base of the carpet So you're everyone's kind
of pretty high towards it for you to like move
that far You know, everything's kind of I guess
moving in and what would be multiple rounds with
a movement between attacks? We'll say because
the car the cloud cover should be you know, like
200 feet up and the ground is 200 feet You know
down below this middle, but you will say you're
all up close towards it So you're at the edge
of the sort of obscure where I can go up and
knowing escape his grass, but I want to be like
Just like teasing him a little bit. Okay. All
right. But you did move within... You did attack
him on that route, which means, as you point
up, you are within 30 feet of me. Oh, damn it.
Good. Is that your attack range, is 30 feet?
No. But it is the range of a certain legendary
action I have called Arcane Prowl, where I can
teleport up to 30 feet into an unoccupied space
I can see and make a claw attack. Okay, I will
take my reaction using my tail to try to, uh,
negate it a little bit. Oh, John. Yeah, let's
see if it works. I'm not attacking you. Oh, fuck,
really? I'm attacking the rope. Oh my god. I'm
evil. I see you dangling by a string. You think
my cool smart lion's not gonna cut you down?
I'm gonna have so much fun with this. You're
at con cover. This is still 26 fall damage. That
just makes sense. Let's see if I can hit a rope.
Let's see if I can hit a rope. Probably nothing.
Unless you roll the nat 1. You roll a 3. But
I have a really high to hit, as you might expect.
Yeah, it hits a rope. Rope rips. and suddenly
you find yourself beginning to fall. I'm nasty.
I'm gonna get so nasty up in here. I mean, I
do have the Ring of Feather Fall, so I'm not
actually falling. Oh, that's true. That's true.
I'm just like... Yeah, you're kind of slowly...
Feathering. Yeah. What? You're just kind of slowly
moving down. Um, hell yeah. Okay. With the Ring
of Feather Falls, it takes you two rounds to
move down a zone. So you're like in the open
sky for a while. It's just slowly moving down.
Which means you can't pick up tails. Before we
get to that, that's gonna be Pepper. Pepper,
you flexed rage. You... Yeah, what does it look
like when Pepper rages? Yeah, like, is it still
all anxiety? Are you like... I think it's just
psychotic. I think Pepper just goes and starts
shaking. Holy shit! I was like, what? some anime
style shit. The wounds weren't nearly as bad
as they should have been. And you kind of hold
strong. What do you want to do here? Can I can
I go and catch Rizzo? You can. You'll have to
you'll be moving slower after that. So it's a
two rounds to go up essentially. But yeah, okay.
It's fine. You move over and Rizzo and Pepper
are now on the same carpet. And then okay. He
has next to each other so I can cool and then
since we're there. He's just going to go into
this mall Okay, hell yeah So that is a 14 14
does not all right. He does have an extra attack
though We're about 17 17 hits Hey, that's You'll
scan plus two on this for a rage damage. Hell.
Yeah, that mall is pretty it's only for seven
Ooh. Damn. Okay. Hey. Oh, no, wait, no, no, no.
What? 13. No, 12. 12. 12. 12. 12. Yeah. That
is... Okay, got it. Hey, solid strike. Whoooom!
Aw, wall slides up, crashing into the jaw of
this thing. Head snaps back after it avoids your
first strike. Actually, hold on. Remind me of
the fighting condition. Uh, oh, sorry, that's
disadvantage on attacks. Oh, bummer. I forgot
about that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. How about that?
Yeah. You also... Oh, I would have been able
to roll a wisdom save at the end of the turn,
right? Or do you not with this one? What? Yeah.
I let it pass, so we'll keep going, because I
didn't catch it. So we'll just keep going, because
otherwise... You have a moment of, like, heroism
in this, but after this, you're starting to feel
the fear creeping in. Yeah, like, he had a lot
of confidence running in there, and then now
all of a sudden he's like, oh shit! Oh shit!
Now it's like you don't actually now you can't
move closer to this thing On your own, but it
can come to you So those are happening as long
as you can see it if you can't see it actually
you Don't have this advantage. It's like pulling
the blanket over your head Hell yeah, all right,
that's me me again with the legendary action
I'm gonna take it on Paloma. I see it to be there.
I see Paloma beyond Paloma, I would like you
to roll a Constitution saving throw. This thing
just kind of looks to you and its eyes stare
at you, big and yellow, and you just feel something.
Sand falling around you. It feels like the sand
of an hourglass ticking away, like years of life
ticking away. As you stare at this thing, you
just feel... Time, time, time. The weight of
it. So crushing. What'd you roll? A five. You
gain one level of exhaustion. So that's a negative
one to all D20 tests. Great. You also, hang on.
This is fun. I like this part. This is my favorite
part. Hang on. You also suddenly look 18 years
older. That's not a big shake. That's not a big
deal. Do I have any ears? Hang on. Is it relative
to... Hang on. It appears... Yeah, okay. It's
not that big of a deal. You gain one more wrinkle.
Yeah. Under your eye. You feel older. It's scary.
Two of you guys don't care about that, huh? Damn
it. So cool. That was Wait of Years. And that
was my legendary. And that brings us... to the
end of the round, and we are all still in the
open sky, which means, I'm gonna roll for tails.
RZA. As you fall, perhaps out of the clouds above,
two winged Pegasi come down to perhaps apprehend
you. Pepper, you hear a trumping. From down below
is one of these great. Whoa, God man has come
flying up towards you. You're getting penned
in and Paloma You're right Okay All right. All
right caught a break. He caught a break You're
quickly getting swarmed as enemies are coming
in. They heard the roar They realize the leaders
in a fight here to support Let's move into round
two These things will not attack you until the
end of this round. If you can move somewhere
else, you can lose them. With two figures in
the same carpet, that's gonna get tough. You
are close enough. We would say you're like at
cloud layer, so you could move in the clouds
if you so wanted. Even with two figures. I think
that's just fine. Perhaps you can find the lost
carpet that's up there somewhere. Theoretically,
there's still a dangling rope somewhere close.
That's true, that's true. Like I didn't fall
that far. Feather fall and then him coming up.
It's probably actually close enough. If you're
in 30 feet, you can command them. So if you think
you're in 30 feet still, you could. Well, you
said the rope was 30 feet, so I'm gonna say yeah,
we're right there. I don't know. Well, if I tied
off, I would have used some of the rope. True.
OK, you know what? I like that logic. You might
just be close enough. Let's see if you're dead
before you ever get a chance. Paloma, let's see
you. Paloma wants to try to save Lion's Mane
the actions, and she wants to go up. and either
command or pull his carpet back down to him.
Is it free to command the - Wouldn't it be object?
It would cost your movement for the turn. I mean,
where am I running? I mean, probably away. That's
true. And Paloma can dash, so I would like to,
if I can - Oh, and you can disengage. Disengage,
right. So Paloma's goal is to get - Lion's Mane's
carpet back to him, and then exit to cloud cover.
I'll say, you can't, yeah, you finding the carpet
would be tough, but you see the rope dangling,
you see Paroma sliding up beyond the pegasi,
moving around them, past them, sliding up just
beyond you, Lion's Mane. Her wrinkled, dwarven
hands are reaching around the rope, following
it, following it up and up and up. You find the
carpet. you have a lead to it. You use your dash
that'll give you enough time space to like bring
it back down if you so desire. Okay so the movement
wasn't enough to get to the I have to use the
dash to get it back down? We'll say that yeah.
Okay all right I'll be in the fray but that's
fine she'll bring the carpet back down to lion's
mane. Okay suddenly just above you lion's mane
Paloma slides down. technically still in the
open sky zone, but we got you the cloud cover
zone because that's visually what this kind of
looks like. You come down, Lodgeman, you feel
that rope suddenly go loose as your carpet comes
flying down towards you. Sweet, thanks. And yeah,
delivered. Slides back underneath you. You're
able to move if you so desire. Here you go, honey.
We need you to hit this thing hard. That's your
turn That's the end of Paloma's turn. Oh, man.
I guess that doesn't mean I get one more legendary
action, don't I? Let's swamp lion's mane lion's
man. I hit you. Okay. Good. I'm gonna hit you
with a 18 I'm gonna take seven off of that. Okay
using my tail So I said off that to hit or the
damage. I have to make sure that it's not damage.
Oh, it's adding my AC. So it's like a shield,
so seven off of what was the original hit. That's
crazy. 18. Yeah, no, it doesn't hit. Holy shit.
So what's your reaction? He goes to spear you
with his massive claws. Claws, ring, clash with
fungal tail. Ting, parries the attack. Holy shit.
And you're fine, and that's gonna be... Now my
actual turn. Let's see how fine you are. Before
your actual turn, I made a mistake. My dash is
just my bonus action because Paloma has Lightfooted.
So I still have an action to attack. Oh, get
that attack in there. Yeah, so I'm gonna do...
It's kind of six half dozen whether I do Cutlass
or Returning Dagger, so we're close enough we'll
do the Cutlass because that sounds like fun.
It is fun. It's more damage because your charisma
modifier gets added to it as a swashbuckler.
Um on the sheet it shows them both the same damage
Yeah, it says 1d6 plus 4th thrown, but both of
them say 1d6 plus 7 Oh Cuz I may change to melee.
Never mind. I'm dumb 24 for the first attack
24 it's gonna hit all right Uh, is 9 damage?
9 damage. Sliding in coolly, comfortable with
you. I think at the same time it goes to parry
the attack. Hwing! Paloma, you come in with your
cutlass as this opening is created. Slicing through.
Second is only 14. 14 does not hit. Okay. The
second claw comes up as you bring your blade
down again and parries you. Both claws fighting
two combatants in the middle of the air cloud
cover above enemies whoa Cycling in circling
in whatever the word is. I don't care That's
my turn. It's my turn to turn now from a turn.
You can turn now. That's awesome I'm gonna attack.
Oh my gosh who I attack here. I do lions man.
We lie maybe you parried me I'm like that. I
like very much You used your cool reaction now.
I'm gonna beat you up with a 21 to hit yeah,
all right. Let's do two attacks. I'm just do
both night at once here. Oh my god It was on
a 20 and it rolled off of it. So thank God That
is going to be a 16 to hit no, sorry 26 to hit
You know exactly what you were saying carry the
one Damage first is going to be 17 points of
slashing damage That's right. That's right. Holy
shit. Next is going to be Really? Hang on. Is
it true? That can't be true. 23 points of slashing
damage. Also heft. So, uh, do you want to do
the total and then half them since it would be
an even number? Yeah, do that. Okay. I like that.
Alright, so 17 and 23 is 40 altogether, so 20
damage. Alright. Okay. Uh, cuts in. Not too bad.
Battling you in the air, this thing looks to
you. It has been so long since I've had fun.
Second roar. The third one's gonna kill me. The
third one's going to murder my throat. Then normally
I'm gonna tell you right now. This one would
normally do a paralyzed condition if you failed
that sucks and not doing it I hate that I'm not
doing that. I don't like paralyzed. It's lame.
It's gonna do a bunch of damage Everyone loves
damage. He doesn't look damage You feel something
is ramping up. Okay, that is First of all, I
need a wisdom saving throw. I'm sorry constitution
saving throw from all of you. Oh, thank God Oh
my god, another five. Stop! This is getting bad.
This is getting bad fast. Four. Four. Twenty
-four. You're alright. Alright, so. You're taking
half damage. Thirteen. Thirteen thunder damage
as it roars out. Yeah, you can't have that again.
The rest of you are taking twenty -six points
of thunder damage as your bones shake. Your old
bones, Paloma. Old skin splitting. It's like
half. That's like half. This thing. And you can
see it sucking in air. Throat moving. I got one
more of those, baby. That's my turn. And that's
RZA. How are you? Huh? How are you right now?
Really bad. Okay, sick. Really bad. It's it's
possible. It's possible for one more hit. Oh
my god I'm not sure why listed in my bonus actions
Healing word is there It must be a class feature
that I didn't remember seeing. I mean, yeah drew
it. I guess yeah And is technically over tenth
level so I'm gonna say that that's legit if you
say that's legit. That's legit All right, sick.
That's what it tells me in here. So I will healing
word you Which is so I'm so bad at looking at
spells 64 plus 2 So do we want to? You want me
to roll it? Believe that's 21 21 All right, that's
okay. All right. All right, so clutch cool. Yeah
potions do each of a potion spirit healing. Yeah.
Yeah, so damn Yeah, what you gonna do this guy's
still fresh I guess swing on him. I will reckless
at first so I at least have one straight roll
and I will then I guess do the second roll with
disadvantage. So I'll roll both of them 18 straight
plus I believe seven but I'll do with the great
sword That you so kindly let me have that is
a plus one It's definitely above a 20 above his
over class someone something. Yes, someone kind
gave it to me. Definitely not David All right
12 damage add the fungal form junk onto that
That's nothing it's another one So that's going
to be 13 from the first one. Second one's going
to be disadvantage. He's starting to feel it.
He's starting to feel a little tickle, guys.
Starting to feel a little tickle on his nose.
He's going to sneeze at you. 14 to hit for disadvantage.
Hey, hey, hey, we can't afford for you to miss
around here. And you missed around here. Oh,
shit. You're doing the thing. Paloma's going
to use intimidating leader. You get to reroll.
So much ass. Oh and shit I have that I totally
forgot about the butchers apron that That has
the I could reroll the damage, but I hit so yeah,
okay, and then I crit on 19s and 20s So I have
to remember to do that shit, so I had a real
world, so I'm rerolling still disadvantage That's
worse first one it was a tip. Oh, sorry For one
a peg is worth a try yeah, it's worth a try and
Did my bone section so we're good. Okay. Do you
want to move you want to stay in this? Yeah,
I'm gonna rock it down now that I have my carpet
back he'll like saddle back on it and Just rock
it downward if he gets an opportunity attack,
that's fine. I think he's gonna go down towards
the graveyard I will take my AO on you with him.
I'm just him the The tails don't get that until
they're like fully in the bite. So It's a natural
1. Wait, you used Reckless, didn't you? Thank
goodness. I'm not getting trampled by a horse,
Pegasus, whatever. Instead, I'm gonna... Natural
fucking 20. Jesus Christ. Natural 20! There he
goes. Jesus Christ! This is gonna be nuts! I
need so many d6s. Hang on. We'll just do this
twice. Holy shit. He just takes a handful of
d6s. He's like, okay, we'll just do this twice.
Oh my god. 16 oh sorry 16 is the first hang on
yeah more coming 16 that is going to be 34 points
of damage have to have no sorry you know it's
half because it's your claws slashing so you
already have to know so I did not already have
34 okay So 20 17 17 17 haha math smoking do math
here. This is great, dude You technically work
in STEM, so I do have to do math every day to
my chagrin But we should invite John to do basic
subtraction more often. I know pretty good at
it All right, you slide down. Are you going all
the way down into the cemetery zone? So you're
going startling down towards the worms you see?
chaos worms blasting shards of flying past you
as you move down, down towards them. Will he
follow? I don't know. Will he? I don't know either.
We'll find out when it's next turn, I guess.
He's kind of locked in now. He did his turn already.
Pepper, that's you. How far is Pepper from this
thing? You're up on it right now. OK. Yay. OK,
Pepper will, he has frenzied rage, so he's going
into a rage again. You can do it three times
for a long rest. Oh right, Frenzied Rage gives
you an extra attack, right? I think you get like
full... That also does give me an extra attack.
Yes. By doing it that way, but... Hell yeah.
Can you explain to me how this works? Because
it says while he's raging, he can make a bonus
action. So what this is is a Frenzied Rage...
But it's also a bonus action to go into Rage.
Sorry, Frenzied Rage is um... It's a rage feature.
So what it means is when you're in rage, you
get to use that feature. Basically, what Frenzy
Rage is, is every time you're in rage, three
times per long rest, you can just do an extra
full attack, like hit, as a bonus action. So
you can attack twice and then attack a third
time with your bonus action. You already used
bonus action to rage, so you're good. Okay, okay,
okay, cool, cool, cool. Sweet. As long as you
take damage or try to hit things, you'll keep
rage. Keep the rage, okay. Cool. Alright, so
yeah, he will just go in for another at this
point three attacks. Yeah three attacks. That's
huge With this advantage. I'm still afraid the
thing is towering over here shaking what you're
trying so hard to fight pepper God damn it. You
ever thought you'd be in this position. You ever
thought you'd be here. You just want to sell
peppers So yeah, damn it second role was a natural
20, but the first role was 10 And I can't use
my reaction until the next round, right? Is that
with your modifier? It's 10? Yeah. Damn. Oh yeah.
Okay. Yep. Let's tack one. Yep. Three attacks.
One of them's got to hit, right? Right? Cracked
on the second one. First one was a natural fucking
20 again. I've rolled like four of those today.
With disadvantage, of course. I've only been
able to use one. Right. Second roll was a 14
for 24. That hits cool. All right. I'm just gonna
go ahead and take the third one as well. Okay?
Well damn okay, all right Near max damage. Oh,
that's gonna be 16 16. Okay. Hey, not bad. It's
starting to get low. It's starting to get low
ish Wailing away at this thing. You have a tail
on you too, Pepper. Yep, and I think Pepper...
Pepper will follow. Going down? Yeah. Okay. Wait
for me! Boom! RZA and Pepper flying down, down.
Whoa! Hurdling! Ears flapping! Main caught in
the wind towards the surface, towards the graveyard,
towards the chaos and the worms below, leaving
Paloma alone with this creature. Where? Will
it go? And that's the end of the round. Just
give it to the end of the round and he's not
behind you. First things first, your tails are
gone. They fall you down into the fray. You see
like the, uh, the holophant, the two pegasi on
your tail right behind you as you come down one
of the worms. launches up big twisting body kind
of blocking them off and they kind of run into
it and start fighting that thing they get locked
in this combat you dive dive whoo behind a gravestone
moving moving it's like flying through the the
Death Star and new hopes great gravestones and
then a worm bursts out I'm going to choose one
of you attack it's going to be you know I roll
die for it because I want it you know I want
to hit pepper but You're so strong. That's fine.
Evens is RZA odds or pepper Evens is RZA. Oh,
yeah All right. This thing is going to first
of all if you get a chance, will it even attack
you again? I'm gonna say evens it does odds does
not was this did I have to roll a deck save coming
down here? Wasn't there something? No, no, okay.
It's the it's the chance that I might want you
Odds it does not actually turn you it like sees
the other ones you brought and it kind of turned
away And he gets a feast down on a pegasi You're
like a moment behind you as you're sliding out.
You've lost your tail. That was a good dying
horse Hell yeah, that is going to be Paloma right
before you blow my To pegasi Detach and come
after you on your tail. You are still in the
open sky. Now. It's your turn Paloma is going
to bonus action pull out her potion pull the
cork out with her mouth Spit it out down the
potion and just throw the glass bottle at the
flying tiger asshole Kill him and then for her
action she's gonna pop the ring of obscuring
so that it doesn't see which direction she goes
And she's gonna go up into the cloud. So close
to the cloud. So yeah, oh you vanish into the
cloud cover. I love that. And that's my move
and I'll figure out my healing here between turns.
And because of the ring of obscuring I don't
get an attack of opportunity on you because I
cannot see through your obscuring cloud because
it is not an illusion. You are obscured. Illusions
however, I can see through fully with my true
sight. You move, you notice what you don't see,
actually I'll say, is you dive upwards in the
clouds, is this thing kind of looks to you, can't
see the cloud, but it sees as you push through
up into the actual illusory terrain above. Its
eyes follow you perfectly as you move up and
up and up. Which way will it go? Which way? Is
that your turn? Yes, sorry, that's my plow's
turn. Here's what I'm gonna do. You're moving
up. I'm going to use, I'm gonna use the legendary
action at the end of return. Make a wisdom saving,
no sorry, constitution saving throw again. You're
a dick. Yeah. You feel the age of your years
once again and you realize, as it's happening,
you realize its eyes are on you. Though you cannot
see it, you know its eyes are on you. You feel
it. What'd you get? 14. 14. You gain a second
exhaustion level. You are now at negative two.
On all dice rolls. Do 20 rolls. Steven, what
did you heal? I'm back to full. Nice. And you
gain one more wrinkle with 10 more years of your
life. Gone. That's nothing, honey. You just switched
it up. To beat 200 again. Dude, I was going to
say those cigarettes are doing more than that.
But as I see, as this thing clocks you, as you
feel that age, the weariness over you as you're
pushing up into the cloud, down beneath the clouds,
this thing turns. and drops not content to let
its prey fall into the mouths of the worms. It's
going to launch itself down to the cemetery.
You're moving and suddenly in your Death Star
race, Darth Vader slides comfortably in behind
you. This thing is on your tail again. And that,
let's see here. Are you guys staying close together?
Are you side by side? I assume he would come
like right above me or near me. We're all in
a movement. I'm going to move basically to where
I can strike at either of you. So I'll put him
in this box just above you. And I'm gonna go
for... But is he in the cemetery zone? He's in
the cemetery zone. We'll call him. He has to
be like on them to be there. I would have gone
deep in to try and lure him down, I would think.
If he's touching the zone, it's going to be within...
It's all it's all theoretics. It's all just kind
of a hypothetical map. It's more like that. Okay,
so he's right on top of you. Um, I'll do it on
each of you. Let's start with pepper Pepper that's
going to be a seven. No, sorry. I'm way higher
than that. Yes Yes, it'll fucking hit sweet Can
I reaction when he gets in range? News. Oh actually
never mind. I'm out of fungal form cuz he took
all my damage Never mind 16 have to 8 because
you're raging. Yep, and I'm going to attack Buddy
the mushroom with a 18 did yeah, okay. I was
only a minus one from his tail thing 20 points
of slashing damage have to 10. Oh, yeah, you
guys are really good at fighting this now Brace
my throat now as he slices that bolt you gets
two cuts not so deep in he's just Looming just
above you his head arcs back one last time one
final That is pretty good man, that is pretty
damn good. Oh, you're not gonna like it now though
because now I'm gonna do All the damage in the
universe to you, hang on. It's gonna roll like,
not in here because it'll get lost. Okay, you
ready for this? You ready for this? I need you
to make me a... Constitution saving throw all
of you. Button. Oh, that's a great, yeah, mine
too. That's a really good choice. Might as well.
Alright, one button left. All the buttons are...
This is the time to use the buttons. Honestly,
good on you for waiting. This is the one. Even
Paloma in the clouds, like 200 feet above, is
fully struck by this mighty, mighty roar, this
shockwave, this boom that resounds out. Just
a 12 for Paloma. Okay. Pepper got a 19. Nice.
I hope. I hope too. Nice enough. for a DC 20.
Jesus fucking Christ. All right, I actually just
breeze past that because I did need that advantage.
I rolled a three and then a 19. Nice. So I got
a 20, 22. You passed this. This is where things
get so bad for a couple of our characters. So,
so, so deeply bad. This fight turns against you.
I've used my ultimate ability, my third roar.
And those of you that fail are gonna go prone.
Jesus fucking Christ. Oh, and also you're gonna
take 44 points of thunder damage. Paloma has
advantage on saving throws and ability checks
to avoid being knocked prone for being stubborn.
Oh, that's cool. But it wouldn't stack. It wouldn't
work with the damage, but you know what? Just
say you don't go prone. Are you still up after
44 damage, though? Yeah, you know how much HP
she has. You made the thing. You know what? You
feel this? Your leg's giving out on you. You're
feeling this weight of your years, and this shockwave
strikes you in the clouds. You can't even see
what's happening around you. You hear that roar
as if he's right behind you. But you are a stubborn
old bird, Paloma, and you lock yourself in place.
You do not fall prone. Pepper, how you doing
over there? Oh, Pepper's down. Pepper is oh my
god. Yeah and falling into the mouths of a worm.
You act surprised by that So prone doesn't really
matter. Pepper is pepper's fucking down. Yeah,
he's falling We said he was like near me though,
right? Like he's right. Yeah, we're right next
to you. Okay, right beside you. That's it Okay,
pepper is good starting to fall at the end of
the round pepper will land on the ground and
take A death fail for taking damage Does the
ground do melee damage? If the ground does melee
damage to you, Ryze would be two fails. Can we
call his hat off? Can we call that? That's only
fair. Alright. You can fight me on this Discord.
I think it is, I don't want to be the person
that's going to kill him, but I think technically
it's any damage you take after you fall. But
I don't want to be that person. Yeah, that bans
people. David killed Pepper. That's my turn.
Not quite yet. Reset that to you. Okay sick.
I guess as What would grabbing him be like full
action? To grab this dude. Yeah or to grab him
pepper pepper. Oh, so what damage did I take?
Let's call them action You took half that sorry
22. Okay. I was waiting How you doing over there,
oh fine I need to go all out on you all out on
you. I'm assuming that wasn't bludgeoning slashing
or any other damage, right? That was thunder.
Yeah, bummer. OK, so I guess as an action, I'd
have to grab him, right? Or could I just move
the carpet underneath him? Totally. Oh, you know
what? You could do that. You'll be stuck in the
zone if you grab him. That's fine. I don't care.
All right. Hell yeah. So I'll like grab him and
I can't. Like, it halves the speed, right? Okay.
So this thing's right behind us. I'd say he's
on, like, the floor of the carpet. I'll turn
around, reckless, swing at him. Or not him. Him.
The - guy behind me. Swing at Pepper. Yes, I'll
swing at Pepper. I'll pull you out of your misery.
Do it. All right, so my rec... Oh my god. That
would just be a straight roll. So I assume that
a 16 does not hit. A 16 does not hit. Yeah. So
here's the disadvantage roll. That's a 19. Okay,
maybe uh 19 19 does it okay? That's sick That's
at least one of those can't do the fungal stuff
anymore, so this Who was six? 12 oh wait no 14
14 points of damage, okay? Hey, it's not nothing
and then bonus action Just for fun. I will do
daunting roar Just because... No, that's fun
as hell! I don't know if... I just don't know
what to do it at. If I should do it at the worms
to keep it away from us? Or if I should do it
at him? Oh, I can't do a roar. Yeah, do a roar.
Do the roar. Do the roar! No, I'm not Dave. I
can't do that shit. So I think it's... It's the
cone thing. So you just have to roll a save.
Okay. And I believe... Is whatever you rolled
on the die above a 15? It is. Okay, never mind.
Don't have to add anything to it. I was about
to look up. I think it's like wisdom or something
like that. You roll, you roar back and this thing
is entirely like, you just get this cosmic galactic
mega roar and you're just like, meh. Well, throw
the shot. I'll make it sound cool. Holy shit.
Alright, pepper. to finish up the round. Jesus
Christ. We need a death save from you. You're
being carried in this carpet, bleeding out, blood
dripping down onto the grave, the brass grave
of Zebulon Brass. I wonder how many death saves
I've actually rolled in our entire campaign.
It's been a while for you. I hope you rolled
one. Pass. It's an 11. It's 11, Pepper. You cling
to life. Still trying to stabilize Pepper Somewhere
in that blackness you still fear fear. I know
what I did Somewhere in that blackness you still
feel fear That thing is looming just above you
outside of your darkness RZA stands above the
Soon -to -be corpse of your new ally staring
down this monster That's the end of the round
In the cloud cover Paloma loses all tails and
I'm not there to ruin your life by using my true
sight to just Demolish you while you're blinded
So that's not happening What is happening? Is
the worms getting hungry one of these worms arcs
up and I need I'm gonna roll this die You're
down. It's obvious. Yes, I'm ready. I'm gonna
hit evens res is getting bit odds This thing's
getting bit the two of you some said that works
kind of looms up beside you Come on snapping
evens as you It's odds three This thing And then
this war I'm just demolishes it in the sky room
Smashes into the side of this creature. It's
spinning. It's now The Sphinx roars out actually
probably see if I hit it I fucking wreck its
ass worm is coming in Let me give me 20 minutes
to do always are you two attacks with the worm
hang on? Wrecking test again 20 minutes here.
Okay, you roll a bunch of dice I need The bite
does 16 points of damage nothing too crazy I
Realize the poisons actually in their tail stinger
this whole time. I'm dumb I was kidding Screw
it these words of poison teeth. I'm gonna do
the damage. I don't care anymore. It's fine.
It's very anti climatic 16 points from the bite
10 points piercing from the tail Always sorry.
I'm done 16 plus 9 from the bite. Let me uh That's
more quick. Someone do do some of the math 25
25. Okay 10 plus 9 is 19. 25 plus 19. Give me
that. Give me that sick, sick roll. 44. This
could have happened to any of you. This could
have happened to any of you. 44 damage. Now let's
roll the poison. What? From the teeth, not the
tail, because I don't care anymore. So Paloma
definitely could have been one hit by these guys.
Jesus Christ. 50 % chance every time she's in
that lair. 30 poison damage so that is oh my
god Christ that was that 74 74 damage on the
Sphinx holy shit You brought these things along
for a reason man right thing moves in on you
Spittle flying and it just gets demolished as
this worm grabs it smashing it around you hear
it This chose cry from the Sphinx as it is locked
in combat. And as it kind of breaks free of the
worm, it looks to you, RZA, breathing hard, still
beaten, when you see its eyes fall on Pepper.
My hunt is not over. It goes to make a move.
We go to the top of the round, deep in the cloud
cover, surrounded by whiteness, bones shaking,
feeling her years. Paloma is turning, realizing
no one's behind her, not knowing what's happening
down below. Perhaps she begins to push downwards.
But in that moment of turning, there's something
current, something falling past you. It breaks
to the cloud cover like a meteor sliding down,
down, moving so quickly, dropping. You see this
object, this figure that begins to unfurl itself.
as it moves round skin. Pink little, uh -uh,
tight -wearing figure, pink mask, and you hear
a... Fuck yeah. Get excited! Holy shit. Watch
out! Holy shit. The pig man flying down through
the clouds, one rescued from the Sky Prison.
I think you see this sphinx looks up. I see one
of the greatest prisoners kept in the Sky Prism
broken free and others begin to rain down as
well. Faces you don't know. Faces RZA might remember.
Members of the Silent War long taken. Roam! The
pig man drops down into the desert dunes cracking
through a gravestone. Hey kids, don't try this
at home. I'm just gonna make an attack on this
dude. I'm gonna make an attack on this dude.
Hell yeah. You guys have made it long enough
to get the cavalry. You see the others are kind
of locked as one of the ones, two of the ones
at this point have sort of fallen dead. Purple
ichor spilling out over the graves and all these
celestials are starting to move and they turn
and launch up into the clouds and the sky all
locked in battle. Paloma perhaps appearing down
just through to see the winds have changed. And
let's do a pork chop. Let's do a good old pork
chop on this dude. It's going to hit. That would
have been very deflating if it didn't hit. All
right. Yeah, that's a miss. And he breaks Amulon's
grave in half. He bisects his body. 26 points
of damage on that first pork chop. Oof. Cuts
into it. This Sphinx just goes, he gets sent
flying. This meaty hand comes flying, slapping
out, whoa, cracks it right in the jaw. It stumbles
backwards. That's a Paloma. Paloma's gonna see
the help arrive, and well, I guess that's my
cue, and she pulls up on her. rug goes over backwards
and dives straight down. How far down can Paloma
get? You can get into the open sky area. So you'll
be, we'll just say if you dive straight down,
you know, it's all kind of out of time a bit.
So you're moving. I mean, this thing moved with
you. You're probably moving down by the pig man's
side, right? He crashed down and attacked. You're
close enough above that. You can also make a
range attack. Okay. So as long as she can get
within 60 feet, she can throw her returning dagger.
You're following the the falling stars of these
figures as they drop drop drop. I think as you're
moving a winged figure Slides down beside you
see Xena go that's a dirty 20 for the first It's
gonna hit The first one was no no that's a 18
18 for the second. Oh, yeah 18 hits 18 hits.
Oh, wow. Yeah Actually, it's 17 and 19 because
I forgot. Oh, the negative two. Negative two.
No, I already did that. I'm sorry. No, no, no.
I was adding five instead of seven because I
re -re -re -re -corrected myself. That's 12 for
the first and eight for the second. 12 and eight
total of 20 damage. You slide down. Just like
trying to stay. Going on so fast. You're kind
of getting you up in the wind barely sort of
standing knees buckling her carpet feeling your
age you Draw out your weapon you go to swing
it go to throw it Yeah, her her cigars almost
falling out of her mouth out of the side. She's
holding on to it with her teeth and Billowing
behind you, but she's got a nice big target and
she's coming from above. Hell. Yeah weapon swings
down One eye pierced back in your hand. You throw
again, and where do you strike when you kill
this thing? Oh my god. The daggers coming from
above lands right between his eyes. You see that
the one eye struck, beams with this bright light.
You strike the head in that two wound, bleeds
with this bleeding light. Radiance just spotlights
shining out of this body as it begins to almost
crack and break all the turquoise or the lion
surrounding it just glow as this thing is being
torn apart With one last like a shadow caught
in light. Xena lands beside you. Pepper, you're
still dying. You want to do something with that?
Yeah, I'll heal him. You heal dad Pepper. I'll
give him his potion or my potion, whichever one's
more available. You're just immediately feeding
the potion into him as this guy dies. There's
still a worm that kind of turns into the one
that kind of looks to you. I mean... Still a
worm. Honestly, I think the worm looks to you
and you just hear like, super flex, the pig man's
gotta wrestle this whole worm. Yeah, there's
a bunch of people there now. He lifts it like
an inch off the ground. Oh my god. You guys wanna
get out of here? Yeah, Paloma's just like lying
on her back on her carpet as like... new luminaries
and escape prisoners just start jetting past
her to go and help. He begins to take off more
carpets, grabbing people as they move. You're
sliding up out of the worm's range. The huge
carpet slides down beneath the pig man as he's
kind of like, wait, wait, no, I'm not done yet.
Being pulled away from this giant worm that like
hisses out. He takes the sky, Celestials scrambling
all around with no leadership, not knowing what
to do, where to go, who to target. Everything's
going wrong. The clouds burst away. You see the
sky risen above. You hear the trumpeting blare.
And it sounds like victory. You're moving on
and on over the burning dunes. Xena looks to
the three of you. All of you kind of regaining
consciousness. All of you kind of feeling that
the rush of battle fade away. The rage, the fungal
sort of coverings fading away as you. drive out
into the blue sky. Good job! Good job! We did
it! We did it! I couldn't get my mother just
to fall in, but we got so many! We got so many!
And now, we take the fight to Atash himself!
We take the fight to the cinema! And we'll call
it there!
