Adaine and Aelwyn's Story :: Fantasy High

uh we will now go a little bit north of here to clear brook oh my goodness uh here in the neighborhood of clearbrook we now venture through the lofty woods and the shaded streets to the abernant residence where we find ourselves at the breakfast table with uh mr anguin abernand miss erianwen abernant ms elwyn abernant and miss adain abernant uh at a a small breakfast with crystalline windows a small spinning elven pylon of pure runic magical energy uh small unseen servants little air elementals whisk eggs and tea and other things like that to the table back and forth you see that your father the elven diplomat from parallel uh reads the paper and ruffles it uh your mother a professor at hugh doll looks so down at her tea and uh goes over her curriculum for the day and your older sister prim proper and perfect in her hue doll uniform sits next to you uh so at the table you see that your father sort of ruffles the paper and says oh ghastly business that i'm sure this will come up but my next meeting at the council is dreadful absolutely dreadful i hate it when you do that you say a thing is dreadful but you don't say what it is do you want to know i don't know i don't an inquiring mind is one that sees before the opportunity for knowledge and strives to move forward your sister ailwin for example uh i trust that when she wants to know something she will ask that's the mind of a researcher uh rather than sort of the responsive more visceral uh attitude of a practical caster you understand if you really wanted us to know things you'd get us papers ourselves except you sit here and you say oh gosh terrible oh drat what a thing and then i have to ask you instead of you saying oh look he's some actual practical information that you might want to know you see your sister says i i get the paper on my crystal do you not i get it on my channel i'm not allowed to crystal because i failed the entrance exam that's right you're not allowed a crystal well i'm sure if you you know kill a hobgoblin maybe you'll what are the sort of things they do at eggfort i'm not sure it's not on this question do you kill hobgoblins i cast ray of sickness underneath the kitchen table uh you see your sister goes oh dear i mean i think that maybe my sister is too sick to go to school today no now children uh offensive spell casting at the nook yes that's going to take a whole prestige education to clean up um ariane do you want to do that very well father your mother swirls her hand and says adan i don't understand why you and your sister can't simply get along why don't you ask her why do you always ask me well i don't no i don't choose to examine that i'm rather busy i'm trying to get this correct right yes of course you're rather busy for me you see that she looks over at your father immediately ignoring that very pointed statement you just made and says dear do tell me what you see in the news he says well um the elven oracle has died in a shipwreck very dreadful business on her way from fallon to bastian city looks like a ship the cerulean just went down dreadful of fear not to be dealing with that i'm sure the art magi will have no end of talking about what's to be done terrible she can't have been that good in oracle if you didn't see the storm coming i what do you why you see ailment goes now really that's much too much oh god stinks sort of breakfast concludes your father gives you a very chaste kiss on the head and your sister um so your mother gets up and says um i trust that you girls see yourself uh she says uh ailment if you'd like to take the car you can do that and uh adam i understand there's a bus that goes to eggfort i mean other people's parents might have found that out for them well i think this is a very uh a wonderful time for you to apply some of your divination casting perhaps gaze into a crystal ball see if the bus is coming to a certain place it's sort of the thing they value there isn't it very well i shall find my own way to school uh you and ellen start walking um and you see that she looks over at you and she says that was a mean trick with the vomit and all that i don't ever cast spells at you yes you do all the time well mine are always funnier you know they have a ironic sort of i cast tasha's hideous laughter make a uh saving throw if you'd be so kind for tasha city's laughter oh would you roll uh four do what do i have points to add to it that does she like reverse it at her um uh that she does uh [Music] a4 is not going to do it great uh you start cackling like a lunatic i also need to have you make a wisdom saving feel for your panic attack condition uh twenty eighteen plus two eighteen plus two cool so you don't go into a pancake but you do start laughing like a lunatic you see she says see for example i just said that my spells were funny and i've turned your laughter spell back on you with us both both ironic and funny which are the two things that i said my spells are like and i didn't even have to use a spell [ __ ] isn't that so i'm going to learn so many spells to destroy you this is my only game when going to this school to find a group of people to destroy you [ __ ] life you see she says i'm sure you will you're going to join one of those little arcane secret societies go i punch her in the face go ahead and make it a tackle did you use up all your spell slots on your sister and she says she says that sort of pure brute physical violence i'm sure we'll earn you all sorts of credits at this uh school for brawling it's lovely well done you see she says can i before you injure yourself by trying to attack me can i just be very clear about something look she says i it's awful that you got kicked out of utah it's awful it's it doesn't reflect well on our family but that's not even the reason you're in the field go for it again eight eight she says really stop what's the game at this point i'm the game is me hitting you in the face and she says i'm trying to help no you're trying to help yourself no look all right i just let me do i'm trying to do a nice older sister thing for once can i can i do it can i do that can you good grief all right look egg fought doesn't work like hudol all right so all the things about grades and tests and practicals and exams and all that that's all out it's a nonsense place it's all topsy-turvy there all right they look differently on the sort of things that they value there so the things that really really work for that academy are sort of things that would be insane to do a two-dollar i heard that one of the best ways to interact society was to steal a book from the restricted section on your first day that that's something that they look at as i don't know some kind of adventurer's initiative or it shows i don't know gumption something along those lines i don't want to take any more advice from you because you probably couldn't even get into egg foot just because you're good at your old doesn't mean you'd be good at egg foot i could have terrible like turn that whole school around brick by brick looking up in the air you're too scared to try you're too scared to try i am proper and well-behaved and well-mannered so i'm really i don't care to engage in this anymore all right fine go on your first day get partnered up with some sort of barbarian go out into the wilds and get killed on your first adventure see what i care good i shall see she turns and walks away i cast mage hand as her back is turned and i take the book the book zips from the searches restrictions section of the library uh the book that now rests in your hand uh is titled wards and watches and it's an abduration book this is a very powerful abduration book great i very quickly put it in my backpack and then i panic because i'm like why am i doing this nobody can see me do this my stupid sister just told me to do this and i don't know why i'm doing it and now i have a book that i've definitely stolen and i can't tell them that i've stolen it to make a panic attack check make a uh five uh you go into a full-blown [ __ ] you're wait a minute you're anguin and erianwen's daughter yes that's right i've heard such wonderful things about you i've uh the uh the the acceptance the scholarship to hugh doll that's my sister that's my sister elwyn is the elder you are yes i i'm friends with your son

i borrow one of your divination books i have a test coming up and i'm a little bit fuzzy on some of my divinatory practices uh divination i thought that you were good at everything i'm focusing on our duration but uh there are some elements of observative magic and divinatory magic that are not complementary so i'm just a little fuzzy on some of the basics can i borrow a book or do you want to rake me over the coals you can borrow a book absolutely i don't need it i've already read them thank you very well adain she loves herself upstairs i can show you if you like it's very easy at least for me

school year from the library they've just been like buried under dust that you like never got around to reading uh did you read them i don't think you did i never described the books yeah no uh uh go ahead and make a role for panic attack six is that a six or a nine they are next to each other and identical oh it's a nine okay uh but it beats so beat the ten no oh okay but wait do you add your wisdom modifiers oh my wisdom modifier uh which is a wisdom saving throw so yeah so yeah no 14. cool uh you you managed to calm yourself but yeah these two wildly overdue books that you haven't read

airwin went into blink also not there right now because she's yes but when she pops back in she will pop directly into where the web is okay the web fills a 20-foot cube yes uh uh so you're going to okay so 10 feet on either side yes gotcha wild um uh so you cast it here uh here's the thing there's a window here i'm gonna need you to make an arcana check to try to break through that window i am going to use my 17 roll oh hell yeah um that's so [ __ ] rad um sorry i used all my rolls on me but this is personal webs appear um strands of arcane energy cover the battlefield ailment appears here in the living room immediately stuck in webs let's see what her dexterity save is you hear from downstairs oh [ __ ] and we can all hear that right we're like i put my head and fingers through the ceiling in this [ __ ] end of her round she rolls um uh and appears back in the ethereal plane with you um well at least when your web gets burned up by my elemental i won't be there to feel it i am going to kill you well we'll just have to see about that it wouldn't be the first time you've failed a test i really want to punch can i actually uh so can i do an insight check into where i think she

not she's a stupid little [ __ ] i didn't plan for this kind of fight what what what action you're writing i would like to cast dispel magic as soon as she arrives back here baby she appears um go ahead and uh you're ready to action as a dispel yes so anything third level or below ends on the target ends and for each spell of higher on the target make an ability check which is dc10 plus the spell's level so you have to make an ability check dc10 plus the spells she has one spell on her which is a fourth level so it's a raw intelligence check you're trying to beat a 14. great [Music] no

funny at all pretty funny no pretty funny guess what else is funny and then i reach into her pocket and pull out the palimpsest oops [ __ ] when abernath is laughing hysterically uh and you guys are surrounded by hudal students that are stopping here and flying and spells are going off percival neville smiles stops and says my goodness would absolutely smashing use of tasha's hideous laughter it looked from what i could see obviously time and its movement had been somewhat subjected to a transmutational effect that you had rather a terrible conflict the combat seemed quite gregarious uh i think first of all we need to make sure that erwin cannot do any more magic so uh i would like to have an old person a sock and shove it into her mouth cool we could do that too and then tie up her hands in such a way that her fingers are also not yeah is she wearing a little crop top or something so uh she is she has a sort of shirt tied to midriff i'm going to create a minor illusion to um make it look like she has a little fat fold to try and make her feel better you guys see all the cute all kids start going like well as per usual a cute old house party has ended in elemental chaos and destruction yes it is do these cheerleaders come to your parties a lot and cause trouble the young women at our school hold their own parties that are obfuscated from divination and they don't invite us so we pay ailment abandoned to come and create these elemental cheerleaders so that the party is not a sausage festival will you uh say that again but to my parents what will you tell that to my parents oh can i take out a crystal and record would you say please do i take out a crystal and i said just say it again as i've just previously stated myself and my friends are repugnant to those of the fairer sex in our school no no not insulting yourself talk about her sister having parties ah very well in order for our parties to not be such a sausage festival we have paid ilwin ebenent to come here sell us drugs and liquor and create elemental cheerleaders that we might kiss upon the mouth isn't that a thing that is against school rules the kind of thing that might get you kicked out of school [Music] well to that i would simply say gone the all students start disappearing this could have been your life at a time do we have the crystal that that girl yeah can we it's the surgery it's in a diane's pocket it's inaudible i would like to thaumaturgy myself into some sort of demonic goddess look i went in the eye and uh use my whispers of terror on her to intimidate

excuse me uh madam if you would care to you see this and says we've met sir i was in your home earlier tonight i'm so bright red with embarrassment and anger uh he looks and says release my daughter from these handcuffs at once you see that your mom gets a look in her eye like this goblin look like her pupils like slit a little bit and she says well sir uh your diplomatic immunity obviously comes from your position as a diplomat and extends to your family however diplomatic immunity can be revoked if any member of that diplomat's family feels unsafe in the presence of said individual i feel unsafe oh well we gotta take her in for custody thank you young madam uh you see that she grabs aylwyn like jumps up to grab the back of her head and like puts it into the cruiser throws her in the back slams the door you see that your father turns and says what have you done uh a member of this family in a in a goblins jail cell she tried to murder me i i i be that as you you let her go at once unapprehend that young woman uh you see that your mom turns looks at him and says uh your eminency with all due respect suck my dick [ __ ] if you have any problems you can come downtown or i can ask your daughter if you make her feel unsafe nice as she's loaded into the cruiser right before the door closes she looks over at you and goes oh those who go to the abernath home you arrive there ostensibly a few like a minute or two before your parents are gonna head home uh what do you guys do when you arrive there go straight to elwyn's room yes you go to aylwynn's room go ahead and anyone who's here making an investigate check this is what i'm supposed to do it's time driving high fabian 2024 you discover tons and tons of drugs money hidden under the bed uh there's like handcuffs you see there's a couple of loaded guns just you carry one can i uh can i take those handcuffs it's weird nothing sexual found here uh you guys uh what you find is in the books you find inside of alwyn's spell books the spell you saw before modify memory you see another spell conjure elemental you see another spell that it looks like alwyn has researched and crafted herself with your notes on the margins of it things that she's copied from your divination books the spell has a very disturbing name it is called detect maiden ew detect maiden so she can tell people a virgins ew oh it's not so bad [Laughter] uh i had a crazy dream where my babysitter who is missing uh was said that she was her time was running up so i think this is all this is all bad all right well i mean is there anything else to collect i mean otherwise you also find that little runic thing around the ship in the closet that adding found earlier the uh heartbreak do you know anything about these little rings or anything don't um can i cast detect magic on it i don't think oh can i cast identify on it ah yes an effigy used in the casting of long range evocation spells this storm summoning signal uses a carving of the object meant to be ensorcelled that has been made to look as though it is the larger object the wood used in this rendering of the harpy was taken from the actual harpy itself making the spell almost impossible to avoid notice the runes around the outside of the evocation spell also include an element of illusion magic to hide the spell from powerful diviners such as prophets and oracles oracles how is there a timing on it does it say when the spell is going to hit the harpy it appears it already has the date in question september 1st of last year this has been another use of the identify spell i mean but the the ship that went down wasn't the harpy it was the cerulean unless there was some sort of trickery involved which i guess is also a lot of stuff that's happening is trickery you guys walk out the front door to your two parents coming up the garden path you see your father says it's a very brilliant move at that house adding a diplomat's child cannot be taken into custody it is an insult to the nation of fallon there will be consequences for this drastic consequences your foolishness taking elwyn she is your sister you have treated me like a second-class citizen in this house for as long as i remember she has been treated like some sort of golden child and she is no better than me and in fact is in many ways worse she's putting children in crystals she has a spell called detect maiden that's creepy i understand sisters are jealous but maybe if you applied yourself to your studies a little more costly visibility of myself uh your father looks around well she's teleported away that's fine and he walks up the garden path goodbye your mother stays i don't know if you're still here your father was never very good at recognizing spells he's not a very talented practical caster i believe you and i'm very sorry you see a little tear forms in your mom's eye and she walks into the house so i go in you walk in his pelopey um hi i like heard that um i heard that ill one was here can i speak with alwyn see there's a sort of thick neck half work guy and kind of a highway cop get up looks like says uh oh uh ailment abernath yeah yeah she's not accepting visitors right now she would be if she knew it was me i think you're going to want to talk to elwynn and um if you need i could bring mr everpetal down here rich girl all right um you see that he gets up uh says come on with me okay um he leads you into this uh room where you see that alwyn is all done up in you know chains she's sitting on a bench in a little jail cell it's like a general holding thing uh see the cop walks you back and then just stands there like what happened she looks up at you uh make a deception check i have an advantage right because i'm an actor you do have the feet well that's going to be a 29 or a how do you roll so well or a 26 i have plus 11 to deception yeah wow that's crazy and advantage on it you see she looks up at you and says my little sister and her friends caught me did you get her where is she where is the crystal she see she looks at the cop standing right next to you and says the evidence locker i imagine they caught you yes he is not gonna be happy i know what are you gonna tell him i don't imagine i'll be saying much of anything to anyone do you want me to go to talk to him yes i think you should okay [Laughter] [ __ ] um my crystal's actually dead do you have his do you know where he lives my crystal [ __ ] died because i've been running around all night trying to find you i don't my crystal's not you i don't have anything on me anymore but i'm saying we're like where is he tonight you know that i don't know how did he get in touch with you you got in touch with me cool i need to use the bathroom uh can i detect magic on the um things that got conjured uh yes you can um go ahead give me an arcana check great i can do the same thing uh 21 uh 21 uh these were conjured by your sister's magic how the hell this is this is a hillbilly get out of jail did she maybe penelope is the one that's wheat that i bet penelope is your sister i bet your sister's in disguise as penelope maybe but she's in jail yeah so i'm saying but she got out oh i also didn't tell you guys that zayn on your crystal it's an article from your mother being sent to your little news article i hate it when she sends me articles it's probably about marriage yeah it's probably just closing war declared between falinell and solace the government has discovered that an elven strike team liberated a uh diplomatic family member from custody and solace has declared war that would be your sister so i think i maybe accidentally started a war that happened fast should we should we just that's what started let's just text uh you see the memory biz has of downloading these uh young women and there are memories of him deciding that this was a plan he wanted to do that this was like his big evil plan that memory is false someone change it your sister he'll win ah [ __ ] ale win again god damn it do you know my sister uh you go and hit a place of his memory that's been sewn off only arthur eggfort or the elven oracle are physically capable of removing the book from the restricted section of the library all others would be knocked unconscious on their first attempt was your sister no i removed it you removed it i heard that all of an article your sister knew your sister knew how did you know that i became the elven oracle she must just know that's your favorite [ __ ] i hate us so much and then she got you to steal that thing uh and you're not rolling for your family correct [ __ ] [ __ ] them oh my god um uh you don't get it they didn't okay go for it [ __ ] my family if we're talking about all this face stuff and everything and then [Music] the danes family went missing around the same time it could be connected maybe i know someone is trying to find always no no no no win is definitely not gonna help us there's no i mean if we if there's even a chance that uh you know getting in touch with aylewood sorry you think that ailment will help us and not lie it doesn't matter this is a lead i'll help you break into a prison sandrand looks up and says all right well we'll have whatever tracker is going to do tonight but uh what's the plan after that game jailbreak right yeah well not necessarily a jailbreak we should talk to her why do why do why is it that we think that she specifically will have information i think know that this thing's in fallon and that we know that uh the shadow cat was an agent of fallon why does that mean alewin i don't see how alwyn is in any way connected to you i think your family might be involved well i would rather talk to my my parents than to do you know where they are no i feel making a great point right here well i'm saying no jailbreak i'm saying we speak to her why don't we look in this hotel book okay and see what's going on there adam you finished conjuring elementals how do i make you look like cheerleaders my sister was so good at this looks like their cheerleader yeah okay we'll work on it the woman that i kicked out of here um made her way back out to a ship in hull cliff and i believe that ship may have been bound for fallout now okay if she had the crown would that make it easier for her to free erwin i mean what lengths to go to though i would think she would have diplomatic means to free airline that she wouldn't need to resort to well but they're no longer ambassador he's not my father isn't an ambassador anymore you look into a room for a moment um and you see that there is a large beautiful elven chamber silver and marble sort of ambient light glowing from the white stone you see that there is a about 15 foot diameter almost like glass orb floating um within that orb which is slightly turning um you see your sister um she is not floating within it instead you see that she is crawling on her hands and knees as the orb slowly turns uh she makes let me see if she notices you she doesn't um with the 23 you immediately see that elves don't need to sleep so it wouldn't be called sleep deprivation but there are thick bags under her eyes and it looks like in the many months almost a year since you last saw her she has not been allowed to trance and is crawling in this ever turning orb here we are again here we are again here is here is what where i would like to hide if possible let me know if you think it's possible is i would uh like to go and see if i can hide in alewin's room i feel like it's just the least likely place for them to look for me sure absolutely go ahead and give me a stealth check but he can give you advantage on this great rolled a two and a four so i got a six you run in there to hide um you rush in boggy's with you you hear people coming through the towers you go into elwynn's room um i'm gonna make a little surge check cool um you go in there hide behind the corner um ailman's long blonde hair is like matted uh her face looks dry desiccated her lips are completely colorless and chapped um she is like crawling on hands and knees you can see that clearly she is at like five points of exhaustion and only magic is keeping her from going to the sixth and dying um uh she moves through uh to you um and uh this your role is low enough that she sees you come in and sees you hide um she moves through you see that in there's a rush people to your room you see the young maiden here um looks up um and communicates uh something sort of telepathically to ailmen and you can almost hear the message can trip going back and forth between them um you see kier basically says uh where did she go um and you see that alwyn responds and says uh she doesn't look at you make that motion uh she looks since uh her response to the message can trip is however should i know i see nothing um and here moves to investigate your quarters um ellen uh makes eye contact with you um and uh casts a message can trip she looks at you and says do you have any spell slots left anything to get out i have four first level spell slots no spell book and a frog it's an all-right frog i can't stash the videos laughter i don't i don't really do that i don't waste one of my four spell slots um can you message us uh it's only 120 feet and you have to it's within you have to see the person to um she looks at you and says um anything dangerous like a spell book or something like that would have been left in the vault on the first floor it'll be locked down by now the alarm will have triggered it the vault will be one of the first things that has to go do does anyone know you're here they know that i was taken i don't know if they know that i'm here i only had one spell and i i used it to get rid of my orb maybe i should have told my friends i don't know did mother find you briefly [Music] she looks at you for a long time shaking under the effort of continual movement it's rather hard to gather one's thoughts in here um erwin nobody deserves this this is wrong what you did is wrong but what they've done to you is barbaric uh what limited moisture is left in her body forms tears in her eyes she looks at you and says i'm very sorry i hardly remember anything anymore i know that i behaved dreadfully and not i know i behaved dreadfully to the world and i know i behaved dreadfully to you and that was barbaric and undeserved i am very sorry that uh i feel a very broken person that it took months of torture to make me exposed enough to say what i always should have said and didn't have the strength to there's no apology that makes any of it all right and the truth is that i feel so strange and adult that i can't even give you a better apology because i don't remember at this point what's real and what's imagined [Music] i think our parents i used to think that them treating you as an untouchable favorite and me who could never do anything right i thought that i was the only one that they were damaging but i i think that they damaged you too i think that that's as damaging they're bad people both of them um you see that she shivers a little bit and says well i think in certain ways they tried the best they could didn't they no i don't think they did i i don't really remember i i they expected quite a lot of us but isn't that what doesn't that didn't that make us great expectation without love what's that you um you watch her kind of go right sorry how did this conversation begin are you here to get me out or no yes i'm here to get you out but i can't get you out yet because i'm out of spells all right well how many spell slots do you have i have four first level spell slots all right where's your spell book i think it's in the vault on the first floor the vault is on the first floor that's right uh and you see she starts to go over the first part of the conversation um can i hide in this room is there a closet or something that i can crawl into um you see moments a couple moments later that these guards come in there's about you know four of them and here is here as well um she waggles her finger at you um and uh she takes you into the room again um what you see as you walk back to your room however is that your uh room is not outside of the range of the message can trip from alwyn's quarters great um you are placed back in the orb um and you a few moments after the guards leave again um you hear a voice in your mind say hello alvin who's this it's me adain adam are you are you here in the tower yes i'm here to rescue you and i need to serve an apology thank you but we don't have time for that can you can you tell me everything that you know about the tower the tower that we're in there's a vault on the first floor that's where everything special is being kept i don't know i'm scared i am too um your sister does her best to help you without being able to remember really what you've said or talked about to each other uh anguin is standing there [Music] you can't honestly believe that there is anything to be gained from your stubbornness i don't you have made it crystal clear that you do not think very highly of me i can assure you that though i have made decisions you disagree with i do not wish to see my daughter executed for treason is he speaking to me in elvish yes i'm going to respond to him in common um and i'm going to say you don't want to see me executed for treason but you're keeping ale when tortured and alive how is even being tortured she's proven herself with ranch she can't be allowed to regain access to her spells she's not being harmed or injured she has it do you see was she bleeding out on the floor is there a torture rack that her bones are being broken on adam that's gonna be you i mean can i do anything um oh i'm gonna message uh ailwin uh elwin get ready we're get we're leaving get ready okay get ready really there's a vault on the first floor yes um and she messages back to you uh she knows to get ready ida rushes forward hits the orb with dispel magic and dispels it thank you my sister is also kidnapped can you can you can you do the great where are you i guess we where is she on the earth can we teleport there no she's like in the next room extremely convenient and you see that she begins to rush out of the uh rush out of the door ida runs in from the other room holding elwynn in her arms nice does alwyn have a hand trick is she um how's she doing uh alwyn's looking uh comatose she's looking sort of so you're saying that she doesn't have any ray of frost that she can just pull out of her does not look like it all right well you know i think where they go i message her wake up [ __ ] i think i want to like as adam's going to sleep uh i just want to poke her and go hey adam is your sister still like trying to kill us because she's just kind of here now i think that she's maybe she's just they kept her awake for like five months okay you broke her brain and like i that's so bad that i had to rescue her uh ida actually comes in with alewin um and looks up at you and says um may i deposit this sister of yours in here with you yes um you see she lays ellen on the bed ailment is outside of the orb you see that her body is still shaking from like the stranger and i hold her as we go to sleep you hold her as you go to sleep um and both of you are just out like lights just slowly backs out both of you trance for the first time in so long um and as you trans uh in the night um you can almost feel your sister um uh she doesn't have any magic left and is too exhausted she just was in this position for too long as you start resting to get your spells back you feel a tiny piece of your sister's abdurative magic like the innate kind of can trip it's her a juror's ward like her class ability as she begins to get her energy back from resting you feel her begin to build a shield around you in the night as you both trance in the morning as you come out of trance um add in you open your eyes and you see a very sick and shivering ailment it looks like she is not recovered can i are there any kind of like a hot spring or something that i can take her down to and just get her cleaned up yes absolutely um you go there are some uh elven healers who uh wash ailmen um and you see this stay by her side i don't want to leave her alone um you stay there tell a mind looks at you and says you would be happy to keep your sister here if you wish it's up to her um uh you stay by her side um her eyes flicker open she looks at you and goes heading i'm more out of the tower we're out of the tower did did we escape or did we die no we escaped okay we're alive i um [Music] i didn't really take care of you no but that's okay i'm gonna take care of you now um she puts out a hand and a very feeble shield surrounds you um and you see she is um i don't remember everything that's okay don't worry about it it's okay you don't have to do anything right now but get better okay uh give me an insight check with advantage 16 um yes 16. you see like a look of confusion or something in her eyes um and you sense that like she is having trouble navigating her own mind that there's something changed or different about her mind um there there's something going on within her thoughts that is confusing and upsetting can i give her boogie told yes and um can i as a ritual cast detect magic on her uh yes you can um you cast detect magic as you has take magic on her there is a faint aura of enchantment magic uh somewhere around her but it's deep and well hidden you find it only the faintest whisper of it but there's something going on in her mind can i cast detect thoughts on her you do um you cast detect thoughts start to move through her mind the torture has had a profound corrosive effect on ailments well-being um and her memory is really warped and hurt as you're casting detect thoughts and moving through her um you see it's almost like a vision to you you're like walking through her mind and you see it's like a city that's been like raised to the ground or bombed out and you see all of these walls and defenses and like battlements with like magical arcane towers that have all like crumbled and you look at these like intense arcane defenses everywhere and recognize like your sister's personality like the horrible mean wicked sarcastic you see the wreckage of that and it is like the ringed walls of a great city um and you're walking through this weird vulnerable labyrinth of images and most of what you see is uh like deep self-loathing uh and a lot of the memories of self-loathing you see like memories that you don't remember from this perspective of you being like scorned and chided and dismissed by your parents and actively like cast aside into like second place um and you see your sister there and you you never remember your sister doing anything heroic interceding on your behalf doing anything but what you see now in all these moments is elwynn's loathing of herself for never saying anything this natural like observative instinct and overpowering that the thing that is more powerful than that self-loathing is her fear of your parents of just not wanting to put herself in front of them and then that of course that cowardice feeds directly back into the self-loathing which feeds back back back over and over again through as many memories as exist throughout your childhood um a horrible acknowledgement that she was the golden child and as long as she never [ __ ] up she would never have to face what you faced in the center of this labyrinth you find an intense magical charm and it's wrapped up and it's all of ilwin's abdurations mixed with that faint enchantment that you can see and you get the sense that in that orb they had been searching for this over and over and over again and you see there's writing on the outside of this and it says despite all of the torment and tribulation let this be proof i always knew there was only one person clever enough to find this i touch it do you attempt to dispel this effect will it do will it work does does it seem like it will work without dispelling her own magic it seems like you can trigger this with a dispelling action and it will do what alwyn intended it to do then yes so you are shunted out through the city i'm going to describe something very heartbreaking now elwyn's mind returns the version of her mind she saved before all of this happened you feel that your sister is no longer broken the memory of herself the version of her mind using that custom modified memory spell comes back as you are now once again in your own body standing next to her and you see a very physically feeble ale window padding little sister adine uh you are gazing right now um at your sister elwynn who is still in her body but is otherwise um very like possessed again of her demeanor that you recognize oh my little fellow man that much is obvious and do you not remember i'm afraid i remember everything up until i stashed my mind away where those elves couldn't find it but i'm afraid the recent events although i'm not sure how recent the events are is gone i can assume because i'm in this nice hot tub and you just found what you found that i am not in immediate danger of being killed by you is that a fair assessment it depends on whether i'm about to be killed by you you see that she sort of looks around and says it doesn't seem like anyone's casting any spells so that's an exciting development feel free to catch me up to speed i need you to look i need you to see i need you to look in my mind and see what happened to you you wish for me to see the degree and she looks at her hands looks at her like reflection in the water and goes ah i've been very badly tortured is that an is that correct i need you to know what they did to you so you don't go back to them back to who to them to our parents ah what do you mean ah um you should understand adam that ah right i am obviously at a disadvantage in this conversation because there is a great deal of information that you have that i don't so before i look into your mind why don't you just briefly explain what the most urgent pieces of information are i assume you retrieved me from some sort of elven custody last thing i remember is i was being broken out of prison in elmville by elvin agents that was nine months ago you've been kept awake and aware and unable to do magic for that whole time and our father was going to kill me kill us i don't know it give me an insight check 10 gotcha um elwynn do you have a bardic inspirations didn't i give you a bard against you didn't use it oh uh ailment looks at you and as you begin saying that her gaze kind of wanders over she says our parents are not on the same side the both of them what there is a great deal going on that um that i cannot explain right now no no no no no no no no no point well made no no no no no no no eloquence as ever is legendary i'm excuse me for not being the most eloquent person in the world when well i've apparently been tortured for nine months and i'm managing quite oh please i get throw up in the hot tub you cast ray of sickness on her um i don't know gotcha um you see she looks at you and says all right anything that i can explain i will try to what is i'm still very feeble and i want to understand my situation to the best of my ability what is most urgent for us to understand right now are we in danger of being found by the adults that took me hostage are we i think it's possible uh i think that we should leave as soon as we can we're still in fallon which means that we're under falanelle law it's possible that our father is dead i don't know i wasn't really caring that much rocks were falling we needed to leave he tried to kill me yes what side is everybody on why am i always the last person to find anything out in our family it's rather funny given that you are a diviner you think you know oh yes what very all of the jokes about me being a diviner are very funny um you see that she says uh adam i can't explain why you're the last to find everything out i think perhaps our parents wanted you to prove something to them before they entrusted you with certain information but that's neither here or there and a great deal has changed you are trying to think how to phrase this if nine months have passed i'm sure that much has changed and while i am very glad that i was able to protect my mind from the base crude depredations of the court of stars and the elephant government i am a little bit rattled at a disadvantage so um you have helped me we are not currently in the same violent throws that we found ourselves at ostentatious uh little shindig you have saved me and i owe you at least a repayment for that favor that you have done well yes and also that many times you tried to kill me if you don't remember being tortured i don't know i you're i tried to kill you one time let's not expand it into dozens of times let's not rewrite history well and you kidnapped a bunch of girls and were those girls you that was you oh i'm sorry does it make it less bad that it was not me oh my goodness are the girls dead or are they all fine because we saved them yeah i thought you were probably going to do that oh you thought we were probably going to i thought you were probably right yeah oh yes of course listen you've met you don't think i can do anything oh pish-posh i i okay clearly i thought you could find the thing look i'm not going to sit here and fall into your traps to give you more compliments than i've already given you i'm the one setting traffic you met golden horde right did you really think that i thought that that guy was going to what win he was a dragon oh no a dragon a dragon they're so what big oh my god he's so big what's he he might he's gonna burn things one at a time as he what flies around oh so you teamed up with him for what for why something of a lark it's fun i i i cast dash's hideous laughter on her um he laughs a little bit too hard and fully passes out great sinks into the hot tub a little bit um um you see that uh uh some of the elven staff come over and pluck her unconscious out of the water and go uh miss evanent where should we deposit your unconscious sister put her in the van all right into the pan um could i go find elwynn in the van really quick uh uh yeah you find her in the van she's unconscious yeah can i do a cure wounds on her and try to bring her back to consciousness um uh yeah you can go for it um she uh you cast your wounds it does appear to help her injury somewhat but she's probably just going through another trance or like long rest to like get another level of exhaustion off okay cool it can wait yeah that's fine i had to give her some hit points here's what i would like to do to alwyn sure talk about this for a frickin divination all right first of all i would like to cast detect thoughts on her uh she's asleep um so um i want to see what i can find um about our parents that she's maybe hiding from me cool cool um she uh my spell save is 16. she saves against the spell as you attempt to cast it okay uh then i try again okay on the second one she fails great um uh she is like unconscious in trance so her surface thoughts are not super helpful um what do you begin to like push through to i would like to find out about our mother hell because i have a pretty clear idea of what our dad was doing or i feel like i do yeah um as you probe deeper into our thoughts so the the thing that is looming the largest in her mind right now um and the thing that your insight check failed to see when she was looking away from you over your shoulder kalina was talking to her the shadow cat was directly over your shoulder speaking to elwynn um that's what i was going to try to do i was going to try to have her look at the photo and see if she saw the cat uh and kalina was saying um uh effectively uh this is a very recent short-term memory ailment's mind is sleeping is good because she doesn't know you're casting a spell on her but her thoughts are not as clear as they would be if she was awake and listening to you so so and she's also in a weird like she's unconscious but doesn't sleep she transits so it's like a weird hazy liminal space but you see kalina basically saying don't keep looking at me look back to your sister your sister's talking here's what you need to know you've reset

watch i'll be her bouncer like reverse bouncer she can't get out oh wait that's tackler you know do some spells disguise myself as her pretend to be a mirror who knows cool as you go into the van close the door um uh you see that elwynn kind of like wakes up uh a little bit goes she is still hex i think that it will still she'll still have disadvantage on strength checks um girls like i don't feel good at all maybe you should go back to sleep i don't know what i don't know this guy sprung on me i didn't really this is not the zone for me i don't feel good at all i could maybe there's some

terrible gas so i can follow them um you cast my stokers i'm gonna roll i'm gonna roll a savings row that is a uh what's your dc 17. so i'm gonna i'm gonna narrate what happens now you watch the invisibility fade as a shivering shaking ailment abernant holding gorthalax's gem and holding her spell book appear up here before you appear before you she was she was invisible in the van with you um appear before you and go i'm so sorry but it's goodbye for now what and teleports very confused by just blasting ass against her will i have a question as she teleports out of here i'm back up uh hey guys ellen just [ __ ] got away yeah she was i love you yeah well i should have been watching her myself this is my fault i held her captive for like nine minutes yes i don't even know honestly longer than anybody has ever been able to hold her captive before so she has gorthalax in the [ __ ] gem and i don't know where she teleported another figure is walking with her um who is dressed in wood elven traveling garb um sneaky uh sneaky the moment you're scrying happens um ailwin turns up uh hits your scrolling sensor dispels it uh with that twenty investigate you know that the ritual happened 24 hours apart right so the ritual to kill killian and the other one which means either that ailment and arion went left like while you guys were here on the first night or that arianwin somehow knew to do the ritual and kill killian like the moment you guys rescued ailment um you find a small desk that has an england quill and loose parchment on it it reads as follows ailment is with me you are betrayed you have no other choice darling come join us i didn't get this letter so this must be to my dad god damn it i hate my family ariane when never worked for me ilwin worked for me the shadow cat put me in touch with aylway um but the night erwin wasn't the nightmare king's only uh follower in elmville i actually don't know the they were kept secret because the only the only condition i could meet them on was if i allowed myself to be able to see the shadow cat and i was like that's fine i'm fine with that man you are so easy to trick into doing stuff that you don't understand i am not easy to trigger always white you are stupid and easy to beat erwin said that yes she said i was very smart when we admit she's a liar she's a really big liar but eowyn was another follower of the nightmare king of servants of the shadow cat i don't know how it all works but the point is this this alewin approached me saying that the shadow cat had sent her that's when i started to work on the modified memory spell with her she joined with penelope and biz in your freshman year uh the shadow cat uh made the connection for her to join my conspiracy uh and thus was it done you appear in the dark heart of the nightmare king's forest this clearing is filled with a red glow you are in a prison orb standing before you are your mother your sister and your father your mother has just finished the spell summoning you to this orb she looks up at you um your sister is not making eye contact with you she still has many levels of exhaustion and is just staring completely dejectedly at the forest floor your father has a huge swollen eye arm and a sling long sword deep green cloak and traveler's clothes with his one good eye he glares at you murderously your mother who has the sort of curse wound on her neck and on her hands you don't see the crown anywhere on her uh looks up at you and goes half time it's good to see you is it yes barry can i message alewin um are you okay what's going on uh you message alen she messages you back uh and just flatly she was in high spirits when you saw her leave yeah villainous escape something has happened you see she looks and says her eyes look up in meteoroids and she said mentally adding for once it's better to just do what they ask please the court of stars imprisoned your sister they said if i brought the nightmare king crowned to them they would release her and they did not keep their promise so you're going to bring back the nightmare king because they wouldn't release ailmen almost up and says you didn't do a dusk-moss ritual to get through all that yeah we did uh ariana looks to you and says i think you may have improvised some sort of hasty dusk monster and yet here i am wiser than every other person here apparently arienwin looks at you and says darling i know uh she starts crying she says i don't know how to make you believe in this family and i've never known i don't know why you can't be like edwin and see that we are together i i don't know how to make it clear i don't know how to tell you that i'm so much better than you think i am adding i understand that you believe that but now is the time to prove it no not in the way that you want me to prove it what is love without expectation what is that what is expectation without love that's what you've given [Music] i'm me upset i don't want to be upset in front of you your expectations are idiotic look at who i am we simply don't have time anguin i need to get started uh you see that your mom uh takes killian walks out of the clearing uh anguin steps forward uh with ale when remaining here uh england looks up at you and says when we're done with you adding if you have not come to your senses i will find what is wrong with your mind and i will change it you've been trying to do that for a very long time and i'm sorry to tell you that it has not worked his hand crackles with light and he says perhaps i have not been using the correct instruments adine you are suspended in this orb uh prevented from spell casting you can speak uh-huh uh but are unable to cast spells within this orb um okay but i can cost message right i've been able to cast a message that's correct um you see anguin standing staring at you killian and ariane would have both walked away um you see anguin sort of stalks off into the clearing a little bit and elwynn is left standing nearby keeping an eye on you um what is adding doing in this moment uh can i message aylwyn yes you can um so i'd like to message alewin and say what are you doing you don't like these people any more than i do she messages you back paradigm i i don't like our parents but i do love them don't you they don't love me adam you have always been above all else steadfast in your ways some might even go so far as to say stubborn love is something that has to be earned it's not no it's not what value does a thing have if it can be freely given the greatest value of all a gift given without ask or want i i don't understand i think you do i think you do understand because you're the most defensive person i've ever met your defenses are so high you chose of all of the schools of magic to be an observative wizard you won't let people in because you you're scared that if you let people in and they reject you then you're not worth it in some way i'm not scared taking cautions [Music] i have tried to make the right choice as often as i could and you can't make it in this world alone you need to have a win i don't love our parents but despite the fact that you have not earned it i do love you do you hear that i hope you hear that uh there is no response from elwynn she give me an insight check [Music] 15. um if you had to guess the power of that statement and how much ailwin needs to hear it uh is something that she saw coming like a magic missile headed straight for her and she you watch her eyes go glassy and you watch her fully dissociate just to not process that she like is too scared in this moment you see anguin whips around and says great deal of silence over here in this corner of the clearing uh he walks over um and you see that he um approaches uh and you can kind of observe him getting some kind of like sending spell or like a whispering wind spell probably from your mom but you see he walks over to you uh and as he does so uh you see that he's gotten like a look in his eye [Music] he glances at elwyn and says daughter time has come i need a moment to prepare the punishment that awaits your sister i would like for you if you'd be so kind uh seeing that she has been as recalcitrant as ever to assist her family uh kindly scour the information as to what her accomplices are doing from her mind i'll be waiting for you to complete this task and you see his uh hand crackles with light again he says adine after your sister rests what you are holding away from you i'm going to fix you i hope that you will be grateful although if i am successful i won't have to hope for you to be any way that i wish uh you see uh you see alewin looks over at anguin and goes um father as much as i would love to see adding suffer she's once we have the information from her let's leave her in the orb that's what she's most scared of uh you see your father says ailment you've been given an order carry it out uh ailman says right but um you see anguin versus brown says ailment now is not the time to lose your nerve do it uh elwynn stands there for a second um you can see that her hands are shaking at her side um she message her i'm i'm here with you i'm with you whatever you decide to do i'm with you she snaps her eyes over to you um and says father adam's just she's she's a baby i she's she's she's a i you see anyone goes a baby and you see she says no i mean uh she said she's young [Music] there's no um you see your dad uh uh just raises a hand and alewin flinches she turns looks at you and says i'm so sorry uh and she casts detect thoughts on you um uh what does adding do as alwyn begins to cast detect thoughts i would like to think about all of the times that elwynn was almost nice to me and then at the prompting of our parents did something cruel instead like i want those to be my surface thoughts i like close my eyes and that is what i'm thinking about um you think of all the times that alewin chose to be cruel to save herself uh the last time you cast detect thoughts on elwynn you walked through a like bombed out city uh what is elwynn walking through right now as she sees a vision of your mind i think it's um our childhood house in solace which uh is most of my childhood memories i feel like we we moved there when i was very small um and it's just a series of interconnected rooms that's like my room and her room and my room and her room and my room and her room with each of these memories inside it [Music] she begins to walk through with you um i'm going to make my first roll uh she walks through and doesn't push deeper even though that's what she's supposed to do she walks in looks at all these moments looks up at you and says well if you're trying to humiliate me i suppose it's working i'm not we can make new memories but these are all the memories that i have of you these are the best memories that i have of you we will live immortal lives do we want to keep playing these patterns out i don't want to um looks out of a window of her room and she wants to go deep she sees something and wants to go deeper in your mind does adding allow her to do this yes [Music] she moves through the window and is at your memory of her in the hot tub after you had rescued her from cleth real tower she looks and looks up at you confused because she doesn't remember this they broke you erwin they broke you for what for why they're cruel people and i'm sorry but i don't think that they will ever love you and they'll never even let you make your own decisions you're just at all to them and they'll only keep you around as long as you're useful [Music] you see now it's becoming even more painful because in your memory you cast detect thoughts and there is a memory of you and a memory of alwyn going to detect thoughts and there's the two of you that are here in the present moment that can follow your old selves into that casting of detect thoughts look at these ruins look [Music] there was no rebuilding this elwynn healed at least mentally from her protective magic watches you observe in the destroyed version of her mind all the things that were buried and is forced to confront not only her inner self but forced to confront the fact that she has always lied to herself about who she is and how she felt has to confront the fact that you know that and has to now confront that it's all been mistakes needless cruelty and wasted time [Music] she digests all of this sees all of the things her in the bed with you making the ward around you all the things she said to you when you were in the orb and has to ingest all of that as someone who brought her old mind back she looks up will you be my big sister i would really really love to have you as a big sister um she looks and uh loses concentration on detect uh tears stream down her face she loses it steps back um as she does so um you are back in the forest the nightmare king um you see um um uh you see uh that elwynn is just weeping standing there looking like having to re-shuffle her entire mind to accommodate all this uh you see anguin turns to her and says well then were you successful what are her friends planning uh elwynn just looks up and can only think to just say the truth which is i did i didn't i did i didn't find it i didn't find friends i didn't penguin kind of like rolls his eyes he looks up um and as he does so uh he looks up and very well add-on time has come for a new and better daughter his hand crackles with light he reaches out and says prepare to be better dear sweet daughter light races towards your mind as it is an inch away from the orb the orb covers with an abjurative rune elwynn stands with her hand extended her face completely blank and emotionless uh as the spell is counterspelled uh anguin looks over at alwyn looks like i cast dispel magic on the orb um you cast dispel magic on the orb um uh the orb dispels uh anguin it is anguin's turn again anguin reaches out his hand [Music] extends it to alwyn you shatter the orb you counter your dad throws up a counter to your counter spell with a bolt of lightning that races across the field uh in elwynn's last moment she makes eye contact with you no just says i'm sorry and is hit in the chest and blasted back across the field adding it is your turn [ __ ] um i would like to [Music] um cast adam's furious fist [Applause] at a fifth level uh and i would like to charge my father jesus uh your father with remorse on his face raises up his spell casting hand and whips around to face you as mist and smoke rises from elwynn's exhausted crumpled body um you are standing in the shadow of where your orb was you cast this spell at the highest spell slot you have available your fist crackles with white arcane fire your father turns around seeing a spell he does not recognize he is 20 feet away from you you sprint across the grass of the clearing go ahead and make your attack roll uh that's the 24 of all holy [ __ ] uh okay how many d10s is it and he rolls a four on his save now it's 10 d10 so i look into the face holds my fist up to him and say guess what [ __ ] i'm strong now and i punch him for 77 points of damage wow 77 points of damage yes as you say i'm strong now adine you have walked for unending days in the forest of the nightmare king you have fought the tides of the wide misty ocean [Music] your strength becomes 14 which is an eight-point strength increase your fist crackles you roll the 24 on your attack roll on his saving throw your father anguin abernant automatically fails he turns an arcane fist races 77 points of damage is more than double his max hit points whoa your father as your mother said in season one was never much of a practical caster your father is dead as he leaves the ground and his body sails 25 feet through the air and skids across the clearing your father is no more you stand you feel through weeks of hardship in the time that elapsed in your vision in the forest you never have to be afraid of being weak again your father hurt you and he hurt your sister and no matter what anyone [ __ ] thinks about it guess what he never gets to hurt anybody ever again you stand in the clearing as light crackles around you and leaves your fist uh adam can i run to ailment and do a medicine check to try and stabilize her yes you can she is going to roll a death saving throw before that the damage was not enough to uh uh fully put her under um uh or fully kill her um so i'm gonna go ahead and roll uh elwyn's death saves uh you actually don't have to roll the first one because the first one she gets an 11. incredible okay so those are my portrait rolls gone so her first one she rolls in 11 you rush over to her side yep uh as you do so um you can make your first check before she makes her second death save so you're making a medicine check um 18. you rush over to elwynn's side uh you use your last poor tent on a 18 you stabilize her elwyn is not going to die in this moment she looks up at you as she begins to enter unconsciousness uh and she says i don't i i don't deserve you and i don't deserve this it's not about deserving me but you definitely don't deserve this but we can rebuild something better together i think there's enough room in my room for a bunk bed if you want it she weeps she says had i i i killed all those people on the ship i killed the oracle kalina told me that i would be dead if i didn't i didn't i worked for galvaxus i went for kalina i worked for our parents you're a child they made you do it i was bad people and they were manipulating you they trained you from birth to be obedient to them without question and you were and they rewarded you for it she begins to to fade and she quickly says i this listen if i can make up for any of the mistakes i've made i don't know that i ever will but the mistake that they've always made the heroes have always made when they've defeated the nightmare king the the curses have to be undone all of them including the fifth all five must be undone and and there's see she starts to fade a little bit um you see can i give her the tincture uh yes you can give her one of the tinctures that is a very wise move right you hear the tincture she looks at you and says she's gone she looks up and says there's a sword there's a sword on father's side he stole it from the from the lumineldus it's it's supposed to be yours not yours yours but it's it's yours it's the oracles it it's you see she says i see you don't have your orb but but the sword it's an arcane focus oh i'll take it you rest here i'll find mother do you want to know something airdyne yes do you want to know in your freshman year how calveraxis knew that you were going to be able to take the book that you you were going to be the oracle no i've always been rather a terrible [ __ ] to you but i did know having gotten into the advanced classes at hudall that they believe that the oracle because it's not passed through genealogy or anything else they've always thought that it goes to the most prodigious diviner amongst the elven people calvaxis asked me if i could be sure and i said beyond the shadow of a doubt i know who the next oracle will be i love you too she weeps clutches your hand and slips away i had to leave elwyn but i we weren't very far away i feel like can i wake up should we go can we get her can we go back to where i left elwyn fabian and adam um uh you guys uh rush back to the clearing um you see uh uh alewin is still there on the ground your father's body is still there on the ground uh what do you guys do is you rush into the clearing pick her up yeah grab him between the two of us yeah do a little fireman's carry action yeah kristen can you heal alwyn just a little bit definitely of course elwynn who is once again with you um uh speaks up and she goes wait a minute wait a minute before anyone rushes off there the only way to defeat the nightmare king [Music] let's run and try to stop them if we are unsuccessful and the nightmare king returns we need a plan to break those curses we need a plan to undo the transubstantiations all five of them they they are what anchors the nightmare king here even if you defeat him you cannot truly defeat him unless those transitions are gone are destroyed alewin the hangman baby and ida come with you uh yeah uh ailwin uh looks over at fig and ida by each other raises an eyebrow she has four levels of exhaustion as well but she looks over and says oh dear do i have to what count myself as one of the uh oh that's right the bad kids now no definitely not you're not part of this you're here because yeah you might know that you can get yourself to add i'm but the rest of us are a little wary yes you see gail and shrugs weekly stumbles up the steps a little bit um she looks up looks over at uh looks at all of you and says i hate to think about the last time i cast this spell um hopefully i can redeem myself at least the spell a raging cone of cold sores up the steps and uh blasts the centaur statue and the little husk doll sprite uh dealing a bunch of damage to both of them uh and that's elwyn's turn tracker and alewin uh both uh fully go down and are at zero um uh as this center just opens its rotting wooden jaw and bellows out this blast of decaying moss-covered rotten wood necrotic energy uh tracking a spell this is an effect this is an effect yeah okay death saving throw for alewin um okay um [ __ ] what was what was that a death taking perfect if no one's making a medicine check on her no one knows um god damn it uh i have an idea i have an idea okay adam that's your turn okay i'd like to talk to alwyn wait is it not big sir they already went um yeah that wasn't where rizz got attacked but that wasn't risk's turn that was killian's turn um uh that is going to be uh adam you can talk to alex um okay we're here and we need to be there do you have anything that can get us up there um you're gonna actually have to delay your turn that's fine cool um or if she has like a i don't know if she has a dimension door or or a thunder step or something like that that can or fly uh ailman says uh uh stay where you are hold i can get us up to the top great i'll hold my action for elwyn she runs in between tracker um and uh she runs in between tracker and adding and straight up cast teleport um uses her seventh double spell slot she goes waist up a teleport to go 100 feet but time is of the essence um you see that uh uh she never always very cool can't wait to learn that spell oh she looks at you and says adam i would love to teach you this spell um high fives um uh cool that's gonna be um yes uh the unicorn lowers its head and charges at you uh i am going to need uh first of all it's going to make an attack uh um that is a hit um shield i have to roll a constitution role to do a spell yes role constitution save dc is 17. i don't make it uh the spell falters um uh you do not have disadvantage on this next state but i'm going to need another constitution save for me [Music] and the unicorn lowers its head charges and adam you look up and see uh you feel its horn puncture the wall of the cottage behind you you are dead straight through your chest the unicorn has fully killed you uh [Music] ailment looks horrified as uh adding is gone um uh you see she uh ailwin reaches out uh a hand to the unicorn as it lowers its head and you see um this scintillating fractal of images surrounds her pure abdurative magic um she says get out of this world and the unicorn is gone banished boom um uh the unicorn is fully [ __ ] banished uh she is full weeping and collapses to the ground um uh next to adam holding her in her arms uh as rog raises his glaive over his head to try and kill uh ailwin um that is going to be and that and rock's turn is next [ __ ] um uh rog is gonna go now rod rolled a two and a seven nice alwyn casts shield he does not hit either time uh you see that uh ariane when casts ice storm on her living daughter and the people close to her christ none of them go down they all rolled very high on their saves but they are each hurting um uh and that is going to be uh that's ariane when elwyn shouts out to tracker like my sister please do something you see that uh uh cassandra looks uh you see the vans the van with hands let's scramble out of the woods oh uh you see that uh uh uh that cassandra picks all of you up uh in their hands and they look at uh ariane when uh uh and they say barry onward you came here of your own accord and you will leave as such perhaps you can get the fans to take you and uh you see that ariana screams as the van starts like crawling afterwards um seems very character building to me character building exercise for you to get out of this forest uh uh no more magic you see ariel is running down the steps is the vans because after she goes you would not abandon me here um uh there is love between us still um and you see that uh elwin looks over at you and just goes love without expectation what's that i have no idea sounds good to us professor professor principal uh headmaster egg foot um my sister uh is sort of wanted for quite a lot of crimes in solace but i was wondering if she came to study at egg fort academy if she could maybe just go to therapy and do some community service and that would be okay uh uh arthur looks over at elwin and says well uh very recently as recently as last year i was hopeful in uh helping one william seacaster secure a general amnesty and i see no reason why this citizen of falanelle could not be able to swear under that same amnesty too maybe she'll be a sea caster soon too and then [Music] it's too much my brain cannot take this and he tussles your hair and he takes a step and says oh and i'm gonna get some lumber from the hardware store and we're gonna get you some bunk beds in here um uh alwyn is like so uh clearly uncomfortable with how moved she is and happy in this new home ailwin uh uh is there and margie as well she's very happy to be in the room with adine but also feeling a little bit left out and she's also past the age now being a senior and is trying to figure things out um you know she's like she's 18. um she um one night in mordred manor just uh looks across the table at you fabian uh and goes did i i'm so sorry did we make out at that party at austin tasha wallace's yeah yeah we did and we were we were going to you said something about uh keel hauling me but then we ended up fighting i did some snug powder off your chest and there was a town trip for some yeah i think i tried to stab your friends yeah we were playing stabby stabbing knife fingers or something it was a great it was incredible you were incredible it was incredible all things were great you see she looks and says i won't lie i'm very deeply traumatized and i've learned that deep down i'm a good person but i'm trying to work on a lot of those walls and things to kind of get rid of that um and i feel like you're kind of and i don't mean this in an offensive way but you're kind of [ __ ] up in a lot of ways too and keep a lot of walls up i killed my dad it's a like i don't know yeah it's yeah of course yeah of course of course i'm [ __ ] up sir i feel i feel like we could be really toxic in each other's lives in a very exciting sexual way if that's something you're interested in [Music] i mean not in our bedroom though yeah no no i have my own beautiful expensive bedroom in my mansion so i would love that um uh you see uh uh you see that she smiles and says interesting well be nice to me you know you uh sit at the kitchen table prepping your lists um uh is boggy in owl or frog form at the moment definitely frog foam right now uh boggy the froggy uh bug ariel frog ariel you're familiar sits perfectly round and happy to be here on your shoulder um uh and you see uh your sister elwyn uh comes down the stairs talking with another uh member of the manor zayn dark shadow uh both of them uh happily engaged uh uh elwynn i think has in a very sisterly respectful way uh is not going to be coming on the college thing with you uh to because i think that she uh knows that the threat of you and her attending the same freshman class uh uh would be she's like giving you your space to pursue your own interest but looks up and says uh adam i see you have all of your papers stretched out here on the kitchen table uh you uh are you is astral state up on the list is this uh are we like checking out a safety school right now or is this one of the sort of this this one is somewhat of a safety school but also like is it a safety school for me or is it a safety school forever it's best to check out all the options it's once you know all of your options then you can pick wisely um she arches an eyebrow with that understanding that um your father is extremely dead and your mother lost in a giant uh haunted forest um but there is still an understanding that in the manner in which you were both raised you even going to check out a state school is a tremendous uh middle finger to your extremely uh well healed parents
