Marisha is proficient in note-taking.

either great okay great here's what i think   okay deal with me for a moment conspiracy  theory style okay all right here's what we know insert voice over yes cue human sending us off to aor we know that she is in  search of these divine artifacts i wish to   go there i wish you to accompany me i wish  for us to find really anything of interest   as far as you're comfortable going whatever you  find whether it be artifact when i researched at   the cobalt reserve if they had any artifacts  from ayore they said no that they had none   we've done quite an extensive sweep of the  archives we have here as well as put out some   feelers in other connected archives searching  for this um eyes of nine that spoke of   nothing in possession that they all belonged to  the server's assembly they had all of them they   also confirmed that there has been trades  of these artifacts coming from the north   kind of a slow trickle of a trade coming down  with the growing wildlife yes in recent times so   we have molly i'll be fetching a moondrop  incredible of curiosities he was a part of the   tomb takers we were all part of the same order  at one point and uh we splintered them loose   um had a different path in mind for us so  we uh we went north to shady creek rotten we   started the tomb takers and from what we know  of the tomb takers and what i just researched   from the cobalt reserved is that they were  also doing things like thieving bodyguard   missions excavating exactly what vestarogna  just hired us to do for her i know of her   location an excavation the middle of foreign  the largest and central island of west cross   with a block aos ruins still remind  remain frozen and lost beneath the surface   and the the they were being sent to  places like malasmar in shotengrad all   pre-calamity cities with pre-calamity artifacts  we then learned that cree confirmed that lucian what you're alive and the tomb takers were  running from a spellslinger from the capital   chasing after this book that spells  bitter lady from the capital she   said you were gone and she took the  book and left so there's some sort of   book involved in this what is what do you  what is happening charlie david yes yes hey follow my books out okay the tomb takers took the book from this  yes so i think that the spell slinger from   the capital that they were running from was  definitely vesta rachna who had something to do   with this book and this ritual we watched you die  that is a story for another day and another drink   so the molly was also a part of some sort of order  before the tomb takers and molly was kind of like   the leader right and branch off and was like [  __ ] this other unnamed order let's go and be the   tomb takers and then when we saw cree and creed  was rambling about the ritual creep was like oh   we didn't you were doing all these things and you  were so great remember cree was like oh molly oh   like he was a [ __ ] cult leader because he was  definitely a cult leader and mentioned that when   he volunteered for the ritual and things went  haywire that they were instructed to run so   i think the tomb takers who worked out of shady  creek run who isn't which isn't far from shot and   grodd schadengrod shot and shot and grabbed  uh yeah yeah i just think shopping not far   i think they were a previous mercenary group hired  by vesta rodman to do some sort of excavation   mission either in milos mar or shutting garage is  she looking to perhaps drag you to shatten grout   as glorified tomb raiders sir they got looped  into whatever crazy [ __ ] the festerogno wants   to figure out with this pre-calamity weaponry  that destroys divinity this is at least what   the records say and had wished to construct  weapons or a weapon that would be capable of   perhaps even killing them and he was the person  for the ritual what i think the ritual was for   bear with me for a second this is so clueless   oh yeah one plus one plus two dream  wilder do this so badly how are you because hang on wait wait where's my this  is this is turned off the lights let me get   this out of the way so they stole the book they  were running for me there was uh they thought   that they thought he was gonna come back so what  if they thought they were teleporting molly to aor   and they were assuming that ayore was  still in this dimension but what if aor   isn't in this dimension like we talked about  before i'm more curious about aor specifically   about what really brought it to its end so little  actual recorded history of what's happened there   exists because the cobalt soul said that there  are no reported survivors from ayore also in   all of the language that vesta and the cobalt  soul used they mentioned that we are heading to   an excavation site that they believe aor  is located there are bits been scattered   across nasa cross but the core the very beating  heart of this civilization the mass of the city   i believe in many beliefs but no confirmation that there is a  or there so what if it's not there   and also there were no reported survivors  so they think that aor is here but also   no reported survivors so what if it's not here  anymore you suddenly see a silver gossamer sky   swirls of strange clouds and sparkles a  familiar space you've been here before briefly you stepped into a creature's mouth  in a space like this and it's the city   in the abyss what if the city is the weapon the  city devours divinity that could be it and what   if questions hang on i'm almost done what if  molly was instead instead of teleported to aor   was teleported teleported to this insane to his  twitter painted to the city in the abyss flashes   of something in shadow large ominous monolithic  a city a city that is moving under its own power   hunting moving with will and then because  when he came out of the grave he had nine   tattoo eyes there is a snake tattoo that curls  all the way up the arm that goes all the way   up into the peacock that people have seen the top  of the peacock but the peacock is actually roving   into a big floral piece that is that goes down  into a snake that is kind of swallowing the hand   there is an eye in a pyramid piece with another  eye nine eyes nine tattoos of eyes there's another   flesh within the minds of eyes of nine flashback  right on his body molly had nine eyes on him   it was you know so i wonder if there's some kind  of connection and then he didn't remember anything   and then everything went shitty and then he  didn't want to know anything about his past   and he was empty i definitely think you've got  it surrounded a question yes you've talked about   you have talked it you're like the gentleman  oh and russia you are like the gentleman yes   we also know for six or seven years though that  artifacts from pre-calamity times have been   coming south and into the possession of the  assembly okay those would have come from   aor not necessarily because there's also  shot and grodd and uh they were coming down   from the north what if uh and malice  deep within the ruins of malaya smear   within the savaliar wood the pieces have  since been recovered as historical relics   trading hands through traveling merchants and  smugglers well what i also learned in the cobalt   is that the tomb takers existed  for roughly four to five years   to be active for roughly four to five years  but five years okay but then hasn't been active   for two years about two years and this whole  ritual incident happened two years ago roughly far too long two years look at  you you blew out your hair oh yes   it's been it's been quite quite an interesting  two years that puts us right at that 78 year mark   of when all of this excavation  [ __ ] started [ __ ] happening   and there are numerous sites that  are just now being uncovered where   bits and broken pieces of air i believe have  been found and people started digging things up   four to five years four plus five is nine but two  years minus two is the seven members of our group   between those eyes they're the nines are aor 84 was yeah it's a breakthrough that's a breakthrough so  what happens next we should go talk well i think   i i think the people who know the most about  all of this is vestarogna i think she has been   throwing mercenaries at these excavation sites  for years like a [ __ ] meat mill and we're next   and we're next i'm so rather than walk in and be  the next group of adventurers that she used to   throw spaghetti at the wall 100 yeah why don't  we go ask molly mark or nanagan or lucian or   whoever the hell he is what we're walking into  before we walk into it well because what if   when mali was what if when lucian was doing  the ritual and his soul was taken by the city   the soul is gone now and then molly took his  place so if we brought him back from the dead we   wouldn't be getting lucian molly we didn't know  anything maybe it won't work but maybe it will   we don't know which molly we're gonna get  let's go ask him and then we'll know real quick do you think that aor is  that city that we saw in the   in the vision i it's possible i don't know  what if they view something what if aor   succeeded in creating it and in like parts  of aor split and became this demented being   right demented city right and the the city in this  world crumbled and fell to ruin yeah because we   know that ar was a mageocracy a society that had  advanced the mortal extent of organist research   to believe they had discovered a way  to eradicate divinity in its entirety   so it had a bunch of like fancy pants mage people  it's just a dumb name lame yeah it's terrible   right oh right not fiona fancy pants that's not at  all indicative of where i uh you know i'm talking   about who could have totally maybe teleported it  somewhere maybe it was a defense mechanism that   went wrong and there are some who have used  magic to transport and been sent there are   entire cities in this world that have been are  able to do that right and then maybe they they   all they went to the abyss and now it's this  crazy insane living city from being in the   abyss for thousands of years yes we have creole  we have lucian do we have any other members of   the tomb takers so i remember hang on i remember  uh good there's creed you gotta post it over here   we could also possibly talk to uh gustav so  we could totally talk to gustav because he's   from shady creek run this was josh's idea  it's totally brilliant it's fine it's not   like how you're doing but thanks everyone  just have to give credit where credit's   i'm flying but um uh uh the tabaxi cree also  rambled off thai fell and was like we should   totally go into our thai fellow again in another  name taipei feel like i also the only other   one that i caught was dora zorro typho yes yes  that's them okay that's the group of people that   that cree mentioned i was like oh the  tomb takers we could get back together man zoran is one otis was another otis otis and typho  in taipeil okay there was a girl but jerrell um   was uh executed for yeah yeah  yeah that's why i was like he was   he's in a separate circle yeah there's i have like  wow well i just have things circled with absolute   sincerity yes we are impressed with sincerity  but we are trying to find out about the eyes of   nine so let us go to the man with nine eyes on  his body all right and ask him some questions   yeah it can you wipe your right hand a  little bit of blood yeah oh i'm sorry sometimes the key

I can't believe people are trashing her for this. This is EXACTLY what taking notes is for!

[u/guery64]

Nice work! I like how Marisha is always taking notes in the flashbacks and it really paid off now.

[u/CalTheBlue]

This is a great montage. I could genuinely visualise this in like season 10 of the animated series or something where they cut between all those scenes like that! I love this whole damn story and Marisha/Beau's Expositor brain!

[u/Bpste1]

A great scene, made even better by fantastic editing

[u/Youbutalittleworse]

Honestly this montage edit helped me so much. I could understand most of Marishas deep dive but there was also heaps of gaps in my memory.

I loved seeing Matt's face kind of torn between "damn guuuurrl" and "I have created a monster"

[u/Krystalline13]

It didn’t occur to me until seeing this, Lucien/Nonagon will presumably have the same accent as Molly. If not, Cree would have commented on it. Add another knife to the heart when the Nein catch up to our purple tiefling.

[u/MadBeard]

The editing cutting to different Matt Mercers as Beau named the different members of the Tomb Takers was 🔥

Bravo!

[u/alphagray]

I was checking out these pre-Calamity items at an art exhibit in Zedash right, and you know me, I'm more of a Shattengard Recovery guy myself, but there was this one Halas that was just sublime, dude.

The Ant-Man "Luis' Story" music is an inspired choice.

[u/guiding_bolt]

The editing is ON POINT, fantastic!
