January 8, 2021

[7:13 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: So, lat time.

[7:16 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: You guys are breaching the end of the dungeon.  A long, hard road now lies behind you.  As you follow the gnome down with Plu, Throm, Strom, Quill and Rian in tow, you prepare for what you now know to be a fight with a Spirit Naga who has been feasting on the souls of the contestants.

[7:17 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: As you wander, the gnome guides you around and past the traps "If what I saw was right, there'll be the final door up ahead."

[7:17 PM] Olenna: All right.

[7:18 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: You then begin to hear voices.  Soft cries, moans, wails and angered shouts.  As you look around, you see faint shapes flick across the stone walls and ceiling around you.

[7:18 PM] Olenna: ... the others who've passed from here.

[7:18 PM] Olenna: We'll fight for you. We'll try to help.

[7:19 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Osu, as you look, you see two of the figures stop and look at you.  They're only shadows but you know them to be the two friends you came here for.

[7:19 PM] Osu: frowns.

[7:20 PM] Olenna: Help us if you can.

[7:20 PM] Osu: .... we'll get you free of here.

[7:20 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: One of the shadows raises what you think is an arm, and suddenly the very clear image of a hand appears on the wall.  Like someone touching the other side of a foggy plane of glass.

[7:23 PM] Olenna: touches the wall in the same spot, herself.

[7:23 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: After the acknowledgement, the spirits float back off and into the wailing sea beyond the stone.

[7:24 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: As you guys approach, you can hear the sound of trap rooms and monster dungeons that you're passing by as well.

[7:24 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Eventually, you are guided out into a large room.

[7:25 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Gnome: "Be on your guard.  Last time I passed through here, there was a final creature lurking."

[7:25 PM] Olenna: checks for magic.

[7:25 PM] 𝕷: how did you evade it

[7:25 PM] 𝕷: will check for traps or hidden doors

[7:25 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Gnome: "I'm trained in the art of the shadow monks."

[7:26 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok, roll arcana for Olenna and Investigation for L.

[7:26 PM] 𝕷: ((23 inv))

[7:26 PM] Osu: What kind of creature was it?

[7:26 PM] Olenna: ((23.))

[7:27 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Gnome: "Not sure.  Didn't get a good look.  It flew and had fur."

[7:27 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Anyone who wishes may try to perceive the creature.

[7:27 PM] Olenna: remembers to look up.

[7:27 PM] Osu: looks around for signs and traces of the creature.

[7:27 PM] Osu: will try to perceive it.

[7:27 PM] Olenna: too.

[7:28 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: L Other than the secret door you just came through, you see no hidden doors or trap.

[7:28 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Olenna You sense no arcane presences.

[7:28 PM] 𝕷: ((27 perception looking for creature))

[7:28 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok, roll perception Olenna and Osu too.

[7:28 PM] Osu: (19))

[7:30 PM] Olenna: ((Shit, I saw that wrong. I thought my arcana was 23 but it's 9, and my PERCEPTION is 23.))

[7:30 PM] Olenna: ((... or maybe I need to learn how to read. Ugh, sorry, I'm dumb.))

[7:31 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: You all hear a low growling sound and follow it to a corner where a manticore is napping away, some pale bones, picked clean of meat, scattered around it's little area.

[7:32 PM] Olenna: blinks at it.

[7:32 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: You see Plu and Throm gearing up to attack.

[7:33 PM] Olenna: holds up her arm to them to get them to stop.

[7:33 PM] Olenna: is gonna try to coordinate this so that everyone hits the thing at once.

[7:33 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok.  I will need stealth rolls all around.

[7:34 PM] Olenna: ((9. Uhoh.))

[7:34 PM] Osu: ((27. ))

[7:35 PM] 𝕷: ((23))(edited)

[7:37 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok, so even though Olenna, Plu and Strom failed their stealth checks, it was a group check and a majority of people passed.  So, you guys all get a surprise round.  What do you do with it?

[7:38 PM] Olenna: will cast Create Bonfire under it.

[7:39 PM] Osu: is going to cast Hunter's Mark and shoot at it.

[7:39 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok.

[7:39 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok.

[7:40 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ((What level are you casting Create Bonfire at?))

[7:40 PM] Olenna: ((Cantrip. It's a cantrip.))

[7:40 PM] 𝕷: will do a sneak atack strike with  a rapier

[7:40 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ((Oh, wait, nevermind))

[7:40 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ((It goes up with YOUR level.  My mistake.))

[7:40 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok.  I'll roll a dex save at disadv for Olenna's spell.

[7:41 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: It fails with a six.  So roll 2d8.

[7:41 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Osu, roll to attack at adv. and add hunter's mark.

[7:42 PM] Osu: ((19 to hit on the first shot, nat 20 on the second.))

[7:42 PM] Olenna: ((12 damage.))

[7:42 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: And L, roll at adv. and add sneak attack.

[7:42 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok, Osu, roll double dice with hunter's mark.

[7:43 PM] 𝕷: ((22 to hit))

[7:43 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok, roll damage with sneak attack.

[7:44 PM] Osu: ((49 damage all told.))

[7:44 PM] 𝕷: ((27 damage total))

[7:45 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ...ok, I don't need to bother with the NPCs cause that's all past it's max hp.  You guys kill it before it wakes up.

[7:46 PM] Olenna: sighs.

[7:46 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: As you do so a man floats down from the ceiling.  He is dressed in red robes and has long white hair.  "Hello, contestants.  You have now made it to the end.  Congratulations, no one has succeeded before.  But sadly, only one may pass into the next chamber.  I am afraid the others...must perish.

7:47 PM] Olenna: Must we? Who are you

[7:47 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: "I am Igbut, the final Trialmaster and keeper of the treasure vaul--"

[7:48 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Lian: "He's an illusion.  Don't listen to him."

[7:48 PM] Osu: I wasn't planning on it.

[7:48 PM] Osu: shoots him.

[7:48 PM] Olenna: Fair enough. Let's proceed, in that case.

[7:48 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: The bolt just passes through him.

[7:49 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Igbut: "Um...no...no.  You mustn't do...stop!  Get away from that door!  ...I'll stop you...with...my magic...oooooooooh!"

[7:49 PM] 𝕷: goes to the door and checks for traps or if it is locked

[7:50 PM] Olenna: Would it help if we pretended to be frightened?

[7:50 PM] 𝕷: we have bigger things thaan dealing with an illusion

[7:50 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: L, investigating the door you see three slots.  One for each gem.  You see a powerful lock shutting the door, but no traps.

[7:51 PM] 𝕷: time for the gems if our gnome acquantance is ready we can get this open

[7:51 PM] Olenna: Very old persistent spells can develop personalities of their own.

[7:52 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Igbut fades away as you pass him.

[7:52 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: "I ssssssssee that thossssssse old tricksssssssss aren't worth it, anymore."

[7:52 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: As the gnome steps forward with the gems, the room suddenly vanishes and you're all in a void now.

[7:53 PM] 𝕷: feels in front of her to see if the door is still there

[7:53 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: L roll perception at adv.

[7:53 PM] Olenna: Detect Magics.

[7:54 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Olenna You are surrounded by a powerful illusion spell

[7:54 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: "Allow me to try a different offer."

[7:54 PM] 𝕷: ((23))

[7:54 PM] Olenna: We're surrounded by a very strong illusion spell.

[7:55 PM] 𝕷: will pull the two gems she has out of her bag and will put the emerald and the sapphire into the right slots

[7:56 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Osu, you see your friends there.  Alive and well.  L, you see Watari again, a file in his hands.  Olenna, you see your family, well cared for and safe.

[7:56 PM] Osu: Really?

[7:56 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: "I can make all of thesssse illusssssionsssss truth, though.  I can gift you all you dessssssssire."

[7:56 PM] 𝕷: seems basic for someone with your reputation

[7:57 PM] Olenna: Only by ending your own existence, I'm afraid. Because that's what we desire at the moment.

[7:58 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: "Am I sssssssso horrible?  I invaded no one'ssssss home, took no one unwillingly.  All who entered chosssssse thissssss path of danger."

[7:58 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: The gnome hands L the final gem.

[7:58 PM] Osu: And you murdered them.

[7:58 PM] Olenna: Under false pretenses, aided and abetted by a patsy.

[7:58 PM] Osu: Not the actions of someone who just wants to be left alone.

[7:58 PM] 𝕷: or imprisoned them

[7:59 PM] 𝕷: will put the diamond in the door slot

[7:59 PM] Olenna: And in any case, the people here with me can help my family just as well--and without the need for humanoid sacrifice.

[8:00 PM] 𝕷: and  I will join those who have gone soon enough but a lot less soon than you will

[8:00 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: "What about you, L?  A final cassssssse.  A true lasssssst hurrah."

[8:01 PM] 𝕷: exactly stopping you and the baron seems big enough

[8:01 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: "...very well....the choiccccccce is made."

[8:01 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: You hear the door open and you're back in the room...a pathway through now open.

[8:03 PM] 𝕷: She wasn’t trying to stop us at all

[8:03 PM] Olenna: nods. She's not goin' first.

[8:03 PM] 𝕷: enters the doorway

[8:04 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: L enters, what is the marching order after her?

[8:04 PM] Olenna: ((Oh god, I don't know. We have SO MANY PEOPLE.))

[8:04 PM] Osu: will go second.

[8:05 PM] Olenna: ((Don't forget Plu, Strom, Quill, Throm, the Bard, Lian, the Cleric, the Gnome.))(edited)

[8:05 PM] Olenna: ((I'm probably coming in somewhere in the middle.))

[8:05 PM] 𝕷: ((Lian as well))

[8:06 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Plu will bring up the rear.  I'll put Lian and the gnome further ahead, then Olenna, then the rest.

[8:06 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: And you don't have the bard.  He is dead.

[8:06 PM] 𝕷: ((The bard and cleric we destoned ))(edited)

[8:07 PM] Olenna: ((Yeah, we freed the Bard and the Cleric from stone.))

[8:07 PM] 𝕷: ((Why Lian has two hands))

[8:07 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ((Oh right!  I forgot them.))

[8:08 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok, so you all head down.  As you do, you now find yourself in a massive chamber with large holes along the floor and walls.  The room is lit by torches all throughout and looks older than any chamber you've seen up til now.  You hear a loud echoing hiss as you enter.

[8:09 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: "Foolsssssssss!  I gave you chanccccce after chanccccce.  And now...you have chosen death!  SSSSSSO BE IT!"

[8:10 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: The floor rumbles and shakes until, suddenly, erupting from the hole in the center of the chamber is a massive black and red snake with the face of a very angular and angry woman.

[8:10 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Everyone, roll initiative.

[8:10 PM] 𝕷: ((19))

[8:11 PM] Olenna: ((15.))

[8:11 PM] Osu: ((19))

[8:11 PM] Olenna: It's rather too late for that in my case, I'm afraid.

[8:12 PM] 𝕷: I am dead one way or the other

[8:13 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ((...wow...my rolls were...real bad across the board there...ok.))

[8:13 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: So, the bard will go first.

[8:16 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: The bard pulls out his lute and begins to sing.  As he does, L, you feel a small bit more hope than you did before.  Take a d8 inspiration die.  Also he will attempt to cast fear on the Naga.

[8:17 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: And the naga just fails with a 15, so she is afraid of the Bard.

[8:17 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Osu, you are up next.

[8:19 PM] Osu: puts Hunter's Mark on her.  Then he takes a couple of shots at her.  ((18 and 21 to hit.))

[8:19 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Both hit.  Roll damage.

[8:20 PM] Osu: ((34 damage.))

[8:20 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: That hurts.  She is hurt.

[8:20 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Anything else?(edited)

[8:21 PM] Osu: ((That's what I do.))

[8:21 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok.

[8:21 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: L, you are up.

[8:22 PM] 𝕷: ((can she make a deception check to beat a 28 ?))

[8:23 PM] 𝕷: will fire her shortbow at the naga

[8:23 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ((...she rolls deception or insight?))

[8:23 PM] 𝕷: ((deception my insight was 28))

[8:23 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ((Yeah, just a 21.  Make your attack.))

[8:24 PM] 𝕷: ((20 to hit))

[8:24 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Yep, that hits.

[8:24 PM] 𝕷: ((27 damage))

[8:25 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: That also hurts.  She is very hurt.

[8:25 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Because she's frightened, she's going to use her action to dash back down the hole she came from.  And I'm gonna try another WIS save.

[8:26 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Even worse.  So she's now hiding in a tunnel under the room.

[8:26 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Olenna.  You're up.  You can't see her from where you are currently, but you know she went down the hole.

[8:30 PM] Olenna: will just move to the side a bit and cast Silent Image to show a set of illusory party members (identical to the real ones) on the other side of the cave, for now, in case she gets out of the tunnel.

[8:31 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok.  The others can't really act without a target, I'll take it back up to the top.  You guys can look up and you'll see her poking out through a hole off the right wall now.  All the tunnels in this room are connected.

[8:31 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: I'll start us off with Osu again.

[8:32 PM] Osu: can track her through Hunter's Mark, right?

[8:32 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Yes.

[8:33 PM] Osu: (How far away is she?)

8:34 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ((About 100 ft or so, going both up and across.))

[8:35 PM] Osu: just shoots her then.

[8:35 PM] Osu: (16 and 18.))

[8:35 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Both hit, again.  Roll damage.

[8:36 PM] Osu: ((28 total.))

[8:37 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: She is looking not at all well.  L, you're up.

[8:37 PM] 𝕷: ((Can I use Osus shots as a guide to where she is?))

[8:38 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ...roll perception.

[8:39 PM] 𝕷: ((18))

[8:39 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ((Yes, you can see her inside one of the tunnels, holing up.))(edited)

[8:40 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ((I'd say she has partial cover for you, though.  As you do not have a magic guide to her.))

[8:40 PM] 𝕷: will move to within 80 feet of her and fire her shortbow ((18 to hit))

[8:40 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: That does still hit.  No sneak attack, though.  Just regular damage.

[8:41 PM] 𝕷: ((my thing lasts for a minute as long as I am not at disadvantage))

[8:41 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: ...very well.

[8:42 PM] 𝕷: ((20 damage))

[8:42 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: She looks super rough.

[8:42 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Finally!  She breaks the fear.

[8:42 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: You see her face appear out of the hole.  You guys all stuck together?

[8:43 PM] 𝕷: ((I am 20 feet at least away from everyone else))

[8:43 PM] Olenna: moved away a bit.

[8:44 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok, I'll say I can get a line from L to Lian, Osu and Quill.  Sound fair?

[8:44 PM] Osu: ((Sure.))

[8:44 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Get the main ranged attackers in a bit of a group.

[8:45 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: And you see her open her mouth and shoot a jet of lightning out at all of you.  Roll Dex saves.

[8:46 PM] Osu: ((28.))

[8:46 PM] 𝕷: ((23 and I use evasion))

[8:47 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok, so you both save and L takes no damage.  Osu, you and Quill will take half damage and Lian, sadly, failed and is gonna get it full blast.

[8:47 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: So, Osu you take 24 damage, L nothing, Quill 24 and Lian a full 48.

[8:47 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Olenna, you're up.

[8:48 PM] Olenna: ((Is Lian still up and aware?))

[8:48 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: He seems to be, but does seem badly hurt.

[8:49 PM] Olenna: fireballs the Snake Lady.

[8:49 PM] Olenna: ((27 damage.))

[8:49 PM] Olenna: fireballs her again with quickening.

[8:50 PM] Olenna: ((33 damage.))

[8:51 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: .....I'm not even gonna roll to save.  30 damage is more than enough and at max that'd be 60.  She's very dead and you blew a hole in the wall.  You also ignite the oil that lined the tunnels she crawled through causing a brief burst of fiery jets to shoot through.  The naga's corpse falls to the ground, blackened, charred and torn asunder.

[8:52 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Lian: "...we...we won."

[8:53 PM] 𝕷: Maybe, we aren’t out yet though

[8:53 PM] Olenna: Correct.

[8:53 PM] Olenna: checks the corpse for magic, once the fire goes down.

[8:53 PM] Osu: \_starts poking around the lair.(edited)

[8:53 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: From her corpse you watch as dozens if not hundreds of ghosts fly outward, and free into the ceiling.  Some wave and smile at you as they pass you.  Osu, your friends.  Lian's coadventurers, Tansem, the bard you met at the beginning.  They all wave as they pass.

[8:53 PM] Osu: waves at his friends.

[8:54 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok, roll arcana Olenna and investigation, Osu.

[8:54 PM] Olenna: ((24.))

[8:54 PM] Osu: ((18 investigation.

[8:54 PM] Olenna: blows the bard a very apologetic kiss.

[8:55 PM] 𝕷: will check to see what the ragtag people we gathered are doing or seem to be considering doing.

[8:55 PM] 𝕷: ((28 insight))

[8:55 PM] Olenna: Someone help Lian, please.

[8:55 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: The body does contain some magical properties and Olenna, you see it is beginning to regenerate.  You suspect in just over a year, it'll be back, so long as the heart remains in tact.

[8:56 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Osu, looking down the tunnels, you can see, beyond just the now ashy residue on the side, mountains of gold, magical weapons, armor.  All that was brought down with the adventurers is in this room.

[8:56 PM] Olenna: tries to pull out the heart.

[8:56 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: L...people seem to be generally shocked and confused, but happy.

[8:57 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Olenna, roll STR with adv, as Lian comes to assist you.

[8:57 PM] 𝕷: will go over to Olenna as well

[8:57 PM] Osu: will go help with the butchery.

[8:57 PM] Osu: as this is kind of his area.

[8:57 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok, all of you can roll to help, then.

[8:57 PM] Osu: ((Rolling what?))

[8:57 PM] Olenna: ((12.))

[8:58 PM] Olenna: ((Er wait, 21. Sorry.))

[8:58 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: STR

[8:58 PM] 𝕷: ((17))

[8:58 PM] Osu: ((15. I guess it's not his area.)

[9:00 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Ok, Olenna, with their aid and after much tugging you are able to wrench the heart free with a final lurch.  There is a loud wail as this is done and a gust of wind from the body blows out most of the torches.  The heart itself is blackened and sickly.

[9:00 PM] Olenna: ... that is disgusting.

[9:00 PM] 𝕷: So why did you want the heart?

[9:01 PM] Olenna: I don't. It will regenerate if it's left, however.

[9:02 PM] Olenna: ... does anyone have any Holiness magic that can destroy it?

[9:03 PM] Olenna: Or radiant. Light damage.

[9:03 PM] Osu: Afraid not.

[9:03 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Cleric raises his hand.  "I can take a stab at it."

[9:03 PM] Olenna: ... try it.

[9:03 PM] Olenna: puts the gross, shrivelled-up black thing on the ground.

[9:04 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: The Cleric will point a finger and cast sacred flame.  The heart burns up and dies.

[9:05 PM] Olenna: relaxes a bit.

[9:05 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: The Cleric smiles....then there's a crush as a bit of the limestone falls to the floor.

[9:05 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Then another.

[9:05 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: And the room shakes a bit.

[9:05 PM] Olenna: ... run, it's collapsing!

[9:05 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: There is a doorway out you are able to take.

[9:05 PM] Olenna: ((It's a Konami ending!))

[9:05 PM] Olenna: helps the others out first, as she's a bit less encumbered.

[9:06 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: As you flee, you see the Yuan-Ti scurry forth to attack as you leave.

[9:07 PM] Olenna: will Wall of Fire behind the group to try to cut the yuan-ti off.

[9:07 PM] Osu: takes shots.

[9:08 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Between the two of you, you hold them back as they are buried under the rubble.

[9:08 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: You all manage to run out and, in doing so...you see sunlight.

[9:08 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: You're escaping in time to see the sun rise over the sea.

[9:09 PM] 𝕷: keeps an eye out for any traps or anyone waiting to ambush or attack.

[9:09 PM] Olenna: looks for spectators.

[9:10 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: You see see spectators off in the distance, but they don't seem interested in you.  They seem to be focused on the Baron, who is attempting a break for it.  It seems seeing all their ghostly loved ones emerge and maybe mention the giant snake has...not gone over well with the people.

[9:11 PM] 𝕷: Somehow, I don’t think there is going to be a reward or champion.

[9:11 PM] Olenna: No.

[9:12 PM] Olenna: But there also won't be any more humanoid sacrifices.

[9:12 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Strom: "...my lady...you have survived...I...that is..."

[9:12 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Quill kisses Strom hard.

[9:13 PM] 𝕷: And even if the baron survives his people he definitely won’t stay in power.

[9:14 PM] Olenna: No. ... we had better get over there to explain what happened.

[9:14 PM] Olenna: And then I suppose I shall have to look for a job.

[9:15 PM] 𝕷: I guess I have enough time to do that, I wasn’t expecting to make it out when I entered honestly.

[9:15 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Gnome: "Yeah, I....didn't really think past this point either."

[9:16 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Gnome: "By the way, you never asked, but my name's Rodaviana Stonefoot.  Folks call me Dave."

[9:17 PM] Olenna: That's a beautiful name.

[9:17 PM] Osu: ((Can I have grabbed like a handful of treasure before the heart destruction?))

[9:17 PM] Osu: My mother's name was Dave.

[9:17 PM] Olenna: One of my great-great grandchildren was named Dave.

[9:18 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Osu, you totally walked away with a shit ton of treasure in your pockets before it all fell apart.

[9:18 PM] Osu: It's not so bad.

[9:18 PM] Osu: pulls out a handful of treasure.

[9:18 PM] Olenna: eyes the snogging couple, and then looks to Lian. "I don't suppose you need anyone at court."

[9:19 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Quill: "...I um...if you're interested in more dangerous work, my husband's kingdom is always looking for new adventurers and questers.  The pay is very good and you are given a good insurance plan."

[9:19 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Lian: "I uh...haven't been to court in a while."

9:20 PM] Olenna: That sounds so hands-on.

[9:20 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Dave: "I mean...I'm in.  You guys do what you want."

[9:21 PM] Olenna: nods, and heads over to the group of people probably tearing the Baron to pieces by now.

[9:21 PM] 𝕷: follows Olenna

[9:21 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: It is a very raucous mob right now, yes.

[9:21 PM] Osu: does as well.

[9:22 PM] Olenna: turns into an angel, leaps into the air with luminous wings and tries to get them to stop and give him a proper trial first, once she gets there.

[9:22 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: The Baron looks to you as you approach.  "AH!  Champions!  You have succeeded where many hav--AAAAAAAHHHHH!  HELP ME!  I'll give you gold!  Titles!  Ancient artifacts!  JUST GET ME OUT OF HERE!"

[9:22 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Well, you get all of their attention.

[9:22 PM] Osu: ....what is the Baron a baron of?

[9:23 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: He is the leader of this city of Fang.  It's a very large city, like a barony.

[9:23 PM] Olenna: advises trial, and then execution.

[9:23 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Roll persuasion with adv.

[9:23 PM] Olenna: ((17.))

[9:25 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: You successfully convince them of that and his guards stop him from leaving.

[9:25 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: And...this is all I've got.

[9:25 PM] SNAKESSSSS!!!!: Sorry for the early finish that fight was supposed to take longer.
