GM: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to yet another episode of The Secret in the Forest, the RPG that I do with my friends, where we meet every Saturday to tell a story together. I am the narrator of this story, I'm the one responsible for... ...narrating the places and people they meet. And they are the protagonists of this story, they have to deal with the problems and mysteries that I throw in their direction. Without further ado, let's talk to the guys. Hii! (Luba: Hi!) Hi, guys. (Gabi: Hi, hi.) How are we? Is everything okay? Luba:
Better now, friend. GM: Welcome to another Saturday! Saturday is on fire today, I'm excited about today's session. Before starting, before anything else, I must make one point clear, as you must have noticed, unfortunately, Guaxi won’t be here. Artie is not available, He's really busy because he's very sad about the cow, that was hit in the last episode and decided not to play with us anymore. Just kidding, he's in a championship and we are cheering for him, hope he does well. So, for this episode I'll be interpreting Arthur and... once more, as it's usual, I talked
to him, I told him what would happen to him, and he told me... what he'd intend to do in such situations, so... Arthur... will be in good hands, I hope. With that being said, how are you? Ready for today's session? (Gabi: I'm fine.) Calango: I'm chillin', chillin'. Luba: I'm very well, man! I'm very good, thank you very much. The opening was amazing, (GM: Right?! Right?! This opening...) Luba: just wanted to mention it. Spectacular. GM: This time we've done a great job, this one... ended up really beautiful. It easily can become at least five wallpapers, I
think. (GM: And finally, now...) Calango: That's true. GM: ...you all have more details of how your weapons look like as well, right? (Luba: Yes.) Now we have the official art of them. (GM: Isn't it? I think it's... ) Calango: Ow, my sling is full of style, full of- GM: It's really, really pretty. (Luba: Amazing.) Luba: Joui, watching this opening, it's like he... GM: Ha! Fine, alright, alright Luba! Luba: You know? He feels truly happy and so fulfilled, seeing something like that. GM: Now that you mentioned that, Luba, mentioning that, you can adjust your sanity to
12/12 again, lowering your maximum sanity for... Joui's art to be normal. Gabi: Oh, I gotta do that too. GM: Not you, Gabi, since you just got a shock from the... Gabi: Ah, okay. (Luba: We almost did it, chat.) GM: So, Liz is still a little- Liz is still kinda... She's kinda nervous. OK! So! Let's go to the opening, that I like so much, and once we're back, we'll go straight into... our dear world, with secrets, Forest, and lots of murder too, let's go! [Opening TSIF] GM: Very well, we stopped in the last episode... right after
you had arrived in Holy Cradle, you found a village, hidden in the middle of the forest, and in this village, right after you found it, who had his throat slit, and the spiral symbol... drawn with blood beside him. In this town, this same symbol had also been appearing... in dead cows, for the last few weeks. You decided to investigate the case of the cows, and decided to set up a quite strange trap, by tying a cow on a pilaster. During the night, what seemed to be a creature... appeared, and attacked this cow. You ran and
then, chasing this figure towards the forest, And Arthur stayed behind, because he had gotten attached to the cow and wanted to take care of it. Chasing this figure towards the forest, you saw it, hiding inside of what seemed to be a big hollow tree, when you... tried to get inside its shelter, it attacked back with a pointy rock. Hurt, this creature saw itself... surrounded, and it was scared by the loud sounds, of Thiago hitting on the shield; it hopelessly tried to defend itself from Liz, Who tried to kill it with her sickles, when Cesar landed
a straight blow, to the creature's temple, making it agonize until its death. And now, in front of all of you, there is its immobile body, of what seems like a human being, or if it isn't, it resembles one a lot, bleeding, and in its eyes, You can see... the despair, and tears falling from its eyes, rolling down his muddy face, and mixing up with the blood that is around the mouth. Luba: Joui gets on his knees, in front of the creature, lowers his head, and prays for it. Ce: Guys, is everyone alright there? Everyone alright
there? T: Everyone is alright! Liz, you good? L: Ah, kind of, right? T: Is there anything... You're the one who knows Medicine, is there something I can do to help you? L: No, no, I'm alright, (GM: You hear...from somewhere:) L: it just hurts a lot. [TOONF] (T: We gotta get out of here,) Ce: What the fuck is this? Hello? T: We gotta get out of here, we should take, I guess, the body of this... being, to the village, as well. Ce: I wonder if we can get into the mist right now? (GM: At this moment
you are-) L: What if they- GM: Sorry, I will interrupt only to describe the place. At this moment, you are in a closed forest, you found this small grove, that took you to this tree where he hid, But the mist... it's there, but it's much more thin than it was... during the night of Holy Cradle. Calango: Ok. L: I don't know if it's a good idea if we... I mean, we gotta take this creature, to show who's been doing that thing to the cows, but... What if the creature was someone who lived in Holy Cradle?
GM: You hear once more a: [HUMMI] It's as if it was a big warning coming from somewhere. T: Lil C, help me take this creature, please. GM: Roll a Paranormal Exposure test, everyone, please. Gabi: Well, now you took it hard. (Calango: Wait for a bit... Paranor-- Here, found it.) Rakin: Paranormal Exposure... Gabi: Wow, I have 17 points... (Calango: Ah, I failed.) Gabi: It will be good. Rakin: I failed. Gabi: I failed. Luba: I passed! GM: Okay! Joui, You feel, somehow, you feel deep inside you, you can't get over this feeling, that you've just made someone...
truly furious. J: Guys, we've done something awful... Ce: What? Why? L: Why do you think that? J: Something is wrong. Let's get the body and take it to the Blacksmith, he might know what to do and, maybe, even who this creature was. (T: I'm already grabbing it, Lil C.) Ce: Ok, ok, let's go. Thiago- L: Let's go. (GM: You start...) Ce: Yeah, hold this side and I'll take the other side. GM: ...getting the body up, and you hear once more: [FUUUU] This time the sound is much louder than it was before, and you see, coming
from the town's direction, the mist, in full speed, [VUUUSH] crossing you all, and surrounding the whole forest. It's like that moment of you getting into the Holy Cradle, You can barely see anything around you, the mist is too thick for that. Luba: Joui draws his sword, and stays ready, looking at where it's coming from, in this case, towards Holy Cradle. Ce: Hey Thiago, Thiago, leave it to me, I'll take this body, (T: Leave it.) I'll take the body with me and you use your shield to protect us, can you? T: I can! I was thinking
about leaving the body there, I think we won't be able to take it to the town. Calango: I try to lift the body and put it on my shoulders like this. GM: Roll a Strength test, please. (Calango: I passed...) Rakin: I try to help him in lifting too. Calango: Woah, one more point and it'd be extreme, dude, it was good. GM: Ok. You manage to carry the body over yourselves indeed, he's heavy, he has about 70 kg, it's a body of a young adult and... you can put him over your... shoulders, like this, with some
difficulty, but you succeed. T: Joui, do you have your cellphone with you? J: I do. T: Can you at least take a photo of the body? So we don’t need to carry it, and show it to people back there. J: I... Yes.. Luba: Joui feels really uncomfortable doing it, but he does. GM: You take your phone... And it's low in battery. J: Thiago-sensei, it's out of battery, I'm sorry. (Ce: Take mine, take mine, it's here.) Calango: I hand mine to Joui since I had turned it off in the last session. (Luba: Ok.) GM: Ok. GM:
You... You start to hear... sounds, coming from inside the mist. [TUCUTU TUCUTU TSH] [SHSHSH] many sounds coming from different places. (Gabi: I stick on Joui's back like this,) Ce: Guys, I think we should get going, we should get going. Gabi: I will protect him from behind. T: Guys, there won't be enough time, let's just go. Ce: Let's get going. (L: Let's leave.) T: Leggo, leggo, leggo, leggo. Luba: We start walking towards Holy Cradle, then. GM: Ok, Holy Cradle is downwards, it's downwards, (Rakin: I wanna go in the front with my shield) GM: It's towards here,
look, towards here. GM: I want all of you... to roll Initiative, please. (GM: You see...) Rakin: Oh shit, oh shit... GM:... coming, from the middle of the mist, a familiar figure, a figure you've seen before, a big horse... headless, and with black tentacles instead of a head, appears before you, since it's very big, and it's running towards you, [TUCUTU TUCUTU] Luba: I got good, GM. Calango: Where is it coming from? Rakin: I got regular. GM: From Holy Cradle's direction. Wait a bit, I'm putting it. It's running towards you, it's a little closer since you can't
see too far, and it's running... at full speed in your direction. Ok, order, extremes first. Calango: I got extreme. GM: Cesar. Goods? Joui. Regular? Liz and then... Thiago as well? Rakin: Regular. GM: Ok, and who has the bigger Dexterity between you two? Liz? (Rakin: Liz does.) GM: Ok. Rakin: 100%. Gabi: Ah, you have the shield, don't you? That explains it. Rakin: It's super complicated. GM: Ok. So... You can start, Cesar. Calango: Dude, I have the body with me, I can't do a lot with just one arm, so I'll just keep running, I can pick to
just run, right? Like, just run some more? GM: No, because you already have a penalty for carrying a body, you have -2 movement value for carrying a body that is as heavy as you are, so how much is your movement? Calango: 8. GM: 8? So your movement currently is 6. Calango: Ok. There isn't much I can do, I'll run... I'll run as far as I can. (Ce: Guys, guys, focus-) GM: In which direction? Calango: Towards Holy Cradle. GM: Ok, that's towards the horse. (GM: Yes,) Calango: Holy Cradle is downwards, right? Wait, and the horse- GM:
It's here, it's here. It's just that it looks down for me, but it's up for you, (Calango: Ah ok, fine, then it's here.) GM: So Holy Cradle is towards here. Exactly. Calango: Ok. I'll go... GM: From what you recall. Calango: Ok, then... Fuck... Ok, I'll try, I'll run towards here the most I can. GM: Ok, you can run, running towards here you waste your action with the body, [UH UH UH] with it on your back. Now it's Joui. Luba: Great! The creature is walking towards us here as a group, right? GM: It's running, it's running
towards you, it's a reflex that each round lasts a couple of seconds. Cesar, now that you are moving forwards, you can see... more clearly, that there are... Two mist things of that solid kind, coming towards you... from here. Luba: I want to attack the monster. (Luba: I want...) GM: You must go closer to it, (Luba: Right,) GM: you can get closer to it. Luba: I want... I want to go towards the one that's running, and I want to lower myself a bit, and cut its legs with the sword that I already have in my hands.
GM: Your movement ends here, and I'll let you attack since it's very big. Luba: Right, right, ok, Katana, right? (GM: Exactly.) Luba: I roll the dice. For the love of God! Oh! Oh! Extreme. GM: You got an extreme?! Ok. When the... Luba: I have nine points, and I rolled an 8. GM: You... You then see Joui, he's running towards the creature, and quickly he, who has his katana in his hands, he lowers himself... and the creature, that maybe hasn't noticed his presence, he goes through it with a clear cut... [SHUUU] through one of the thighs...
of the horse, and rips out the whole thigh. [SHUUU] The horse goes: [IIIIIIIH] And falls... and starts crawling, [PRUSHH] towards Thiago. You can only hear a: [GRRAA] coming from it, it's like this... struggling and from this hole, that has been cut, is leaking a lot of black goop, but it's not dead yet, it's just [GRIIIII] and it's trying to get up again, [TUCUPLOF] with difficulty. J: Guys! Let's just run! (Ce: Guys, I need help here!) GM: Now that you moved forwards- Now that you moved forwards, Joui, you hear sounds... and see a silhouette, coming from
inside the mist, it kind of looks like a snake, but with a body, straight up... and two birdy claws, its skull, it's of a... beaked animal that you can't quite recognize, what it's from, you hear a sound [GRRSHHH] of two of these... Coming towards you. (Gabi: Uh!) GM: This creature right here. Gabi: Wow! (GM: It's not that big, it's not that big,) Rakin: That thing?! (Rakin: Aaah!) GM: It is that, but not that big. GM: It's the size of a wolf, more so. They come crawling in the ground and using its paws... [SHUZHSU] to come
towards you. Remembering that your vision radius is quite low because of the mist, ok? (J: Guys! Let's just get running, don't-) GM: Now... GM: It's over, it's over, Your turn ended. (Luba: Damn it.) GM: Liz! Calango: Did Joui take a photo of the body? Just to know. GM: No, you handed him your phone and the fight started, it was still off. Gabi: Ok, Thiago has his big shield upwards, right? GM: All of you have your weapons in hands, yes, all of you have your weapons in hands, Gabi: So I'm going to help them sort of
surround the perimeter, so we can kind of make a circle, and I'll run between Joui and Cesar in here, Like this, with my sickles in hands. GM: Ok. Thiago, your turn. Rakin: I'll put the shield in front of the... ... of the horse, I want to stay here in front of Joui and shout "run!" T: Just run! There's no reason for staying in here! Cesar, leave the body there, go away! GM: Ok. You pass by the fallen horse which is like this, struggling, it's getting up while you're passing through it, and, finally, On its turn,
[SHUPUPLU] it can get a little crooked, like this, and it puts its front paw, the only one, in the center one, turned a bit, and gets to stand up, but there's a lot of goop getting out... of it. Now, the other two crawling creatures, they start to crawl... towards you, you just have to let it like this... One of them starts to crawl [SHIIIIZ] and moves towards Thiago, And Thiago, it starts... you see that thing jumping towards you, do you want to fight back or dodge? Rakin: Ah, fight back, y'know? Lemme see... with advantage? GM:
No. Ah! Yes, Fight Back has an advantage. (GM: Ah! One thing!) Rakin: Fight Back , then- GM: One thing, just to balance things because I think you became too OP, we will take those extra 2 armor points and leave only the Fight Back, ok? You have the fight back with advantage, but your armor remains as 2. Rakin: Don't you wanna trade that? GM: You want to keep your armor as 4 and not have the Fight Back? (GM: Ok.) Rakin: I'd rather, I'd rather. GM: So you have 4 armor points but no advantage on the Fight
Back. Rakin: Perfect. GM: You pick which you rather, (Rakin: I failed.) GM: It's just to balance it, Gabi: Nerfed live. GM: You failed? Rakin: I was nerfed live. (GM: You failed?) Rakin: I did. GM: You see this creature, initially it opens [AHRG] its mouth you get startled thinking it will attack you, but suddenly you see... it's tail, it's a snake body, getting down from its exposed ribs, it [SHIU] goes through from behind and starts to curl up around you, and around your legs, and it starts to [SHUQHSU] it starts to curl up around you. Ok.
In the meantime, the other creature... starts to crawl towards Liz. [SHUHSUH] And it also jumps in Liz's direction opening its mouth and going [AHRRG]. (GM: Ok.) Gabi: I'll fight back. Damn… I got regular, I got regular. GM: Regular? You see this creature going up you try to attack it but it puts its both claws, Eagle claws or any other animal you can't recognize clearly, on you but it doesn't pierce you, it holds you on your chest, and it starts to curl up on you as well. [SHUQHSU] And it curls up your arms and legs, you
can't move. Now... the mist beings that were here start moving towards Cesar, and they will both attack Cesar. You have the disadvantage to Dodge and you can't Fight Back. Calango: Wow, shit, I'll have to dodge either way. Calango: Disadvantage, right? Ok, I passed regular in one... Wow, I got extreme in the other, so I passed regular. GM: Ok. Ok. Wait, you passed regular in one and... Calango: And extreme on the other, so with the disadvantage... GM: Ok, but you have to dodge from both attacks. Calango: Ah, from both? Both with disadvantage, right? Luba: Yeah, you
have to roll four times. Calango: I've already failed. (GM: Ok.) Calango: I'll roll again but... I failed. GM: The first one you dodge easily, you [SHUZ] you get down like this, you almost fall. Meanwhile, you see this other solid mist being you get down like this, you almost fall. Meanwhile, you see this other solid mist being [PUCH] sinking it's hand on you and you lose... 2 HP But because of your armor, you don't lose it. It sinks... Hello? Calango: Yes? GM: Ah ok, it's just everyone reacted without sound, I found it funny. GM: You... [Laughter]
You... Rakin: I muted because of the cat. GM: You feel it sinking, she could've hurt you a lot But your clothing is quite thick and padded. So she stops on the fabric, you just feel the tip of it. And it goes away. And now, Thiago, you who went towards to the side and was looking in this direction. You see, running from within the mist, another creature. One of those wolfs, again. It comes running. [WOOF WOOF ARGH] It jumps at you trying to bite. Calango: Wow! Rakin: Nice. Rakin: How cool, huh? Rakin: I try to roll
my body in a way that the shield stays... GM: You can fight back or dodge. Rakin: Can I? Even with the thing curled around me? GM: No, actually! That's a good point. Thank you for the reminder. You take the hit. Rakin: Yeah. GM: Actually, you don't take it. It jumps but since you got curled up. It calculated the bite wrong and it just [AGH] It jumps but since you got curled up. It calculated the bite wrong and it just [AGH] stops in front of you. And it gets ready to jump on you and bite you
on next time. GM: Now it's Cesar. Calango: For me to let go of the body it's not an action, is it? GM: Yes, it's an action. Calango: Aw man… GM: You have to make some strength and drop him like this, or you can fall to the ground and knock him down too. Rakin: Is dialogue an action, hey, Cellbit? GM: Dialogue.. Calango: That's a free action. GM: It's a free action, you can do whenever you want but it's a dialogue of like six or five seconds. I won't let you talk more than that. Rakin: I just
want to shout: T: Cesar! Drop that body and run! Ce: Ah! No way!... Calango: I grab the body and drop it on the ground, man. (J: We don't have much choice...) GM: You drop the body? (Calango: I drop it like this.) GM: Ok, you drop the body on the floor. (Calango: Can I still run?) You can still move, yes. Calango: I run towards this direction here, look. GM: Ok. GM: Joui, it's your turn. Luba: Ok. How close am I to this mule? GM: You're at one meter and something, it just got up. But you can
turn around and hit it if you want. Luba: Can I attack? Luba: I'll attack it then. GM: You can step forward a bit and attack as you can approach it. Luba: Cool then. Joui will try to do the same thing... Ah no, I must roll the dice before. Joui will try to do the same thing... Ah no, I must roll the dice before. GM: Yeah, roll it and then attack so we can know if you hit it or not. Luba: I failed. GM: You... Luba: Joui wanted to get on his knees and attack the paw,
but... GM: But you... The creature was getting up and you were scared. You saw Thiago being curled up by this creature and staying immobile. The creature was getting up and you were scared. You saw Thiago being curled up by this creature and staying immobile. You, by reflex, turned to try to attack the creature, but with your perception in the mist, you thought it was closer than it actually was, so you just hit the air. And now it got up. You see all these bizarre tentacles. [SHRLL] And now it got up. You see all these bizarre
tentacles. [SHRLL] Vibrating towards you. Liz, you're immobile by this creature that curled around you And are holding you by your ribs. You can roll a Strength test to try to break it. Gabi: Liz will use what she've learned in personal defense classes, back in the police. To try to get rid of the... GM: I'm not sure if they teach how to deal with this, specifically, but that's a great try! Gabi: They do, they do! (Calango: How do you get rid of an anaconda's trap?) Gabi: And I passed with a normal. GM: You [SHRRR] try to
open it with all your strength. [ANNG] You feel like this creature is too strong and heavy. It's heavier than it seems. And it has grabbed you well. GM: Now it's Thiago, who also needs to do a test to see if he can free himself. Rakin: Let me see, huh... I failed. GM: You failed? Okay. Rakin: Yeah. GM: You.. got startled because of the dog, you just... tried to move, but you feel like the creature Rakin: Yeah. GM: You.. got startled because of the dog, you just... tried to move, but you feel like the creature also
grabbed you by the legs. And it's being too hard to move, it's awful. And now, the... Wolf... Will put it's paws on you and bite you. In the face. Rakin: Oh shit, not on the face. GM: It hits you. Rakin: It'll ruin the funeral. Gabi: The scar in his face, dude... GM: You take a 3HP hit, so... (Rakin: So, zero?) GM: So... GM: Due to the armor you take 0HP. Rakin: I've made the right choice! GM: It grabbed you and tried to bite your face, but you, in the middle of this, Managed to raise your
shield a bit and lower your head. [PSHIN] You feel that it [GRRR] bites the shield and [PLAH] moves backward. [GRRR] The creature that is holding you will also try to bite you... But it fails because it's holding you in a place, too hard to hit. It bites you but weakly, in an area well protected by the armor. You don't even feel it. (Rakin: Try to take a bite of daddy here.) Liz- GM: Your creature also will try to bite, now that it's holding you. Calango: No.. GM: I can show you if you want to, dude.
Luba: Ouch! GM: No, I won't show it because it'll show what I have on my table, but I rolled 1. Gabi: Dude, it's the second time you do that! (GM: I swear...) GM:... to God I rolled 1. GM: You take 4 of damage. Gabi: Two, then. GM; Two. GM: It bites right on your face and you were already hurt, you feel this pressure crushing your skull, you think for a moment that it'll break [AAAAH] and then [PLUF] it let go and doesn't crush in your skull. The mist beings to move behind Cesar to hit him.
One reaches him, the other doesn't. Cesar, when you run forward, you see another mist being coming from here. It also comes to attack you. So you'll have to roll twice, you can dodge or counter attack both of them. Calango: I'll dodge, I'll dodge. Calango: Ok, I failed one. Calango: Aw man... My dice fell down, wait a bit... I got 1 in the other, it was extreme in one and I failed the other. GM: You... You start running, you see this creature coming... No! This solidified mist, it's not a creature. It's coming to hold you from
the front. and you [SHIU] jump masterfully to the side. But when you jumped, you forgot the creature that was behind you and it punches you on your nape. But when you jumped, you forgot the creature that was behind you And it punches you on your nape. Calango: Son of a bitch. (Luba: On the nape?) GM: You take... GM: 3 of damage. Calango: Then it's 1? GM: One, yes. Calango: Ok. GM: Now, Joui. When you tried to hit the mule, it was inclined backwards, but then it inclines forward and its tentacles come like spears towards you.
[SHIIIIIU] It attacks you. Calango: Just a thing. The sheet here. I'm trying to click on my life but it's not working, man. GM: Try to refresh the page. Rakin: You must be joking, aren't you, Sir. Master? GM: Ah, but is everyone's sheet is working normally? GM: Ah, ok. Calango: Yes, it's now. Rakin: Let me see mine... Yup. GM: Joui, evade or counterattack? Luba: Joui will try to counterattack these tentacles with the sword. GM: Ok. Luba: Uh! Passed with regular. GM: With regular? You... Take the hit. (Rakin: Joy is short lived.) GM: You take... Wait a
bit... You take a hit of 5HP. These tentacles comes towards you, [SHIIIIU] many of them, some pierce your body. You feel lots of pain. Some hit your iron shoulder pad. Some you manage to repel with the sword but there are many at the same time, You've taken lots of damage. Luba: How much damage? GM: 5. Calango: I lost my dice. Luba: 5? GM: You take out 2. Yeah. Luba: So 3. GM: I'll always say the total and you lower your armor. GM: Now it's Cesar turn. Calango: If I were to use my sling to shoot
at the creature with Liz. I don't get disadvantage, right? Since it's a fixed target, or will I? GM: You will because she is melee with it, it'd be the same as if you had a pistol. Luba: Joui notices Cesar might be considering attacking and I shout: J: Just run! Cesar-kun, just run! We need to get out as soon as we can! Call out the Blacksmith, do something! We need help! Calango: I'll go to the snake that's with Liz and try to pull it out of her. GM: Strength test... Gabi: Does he have advantage since I'm
also using my strength? GM: No. Calango: I failed. GM: You- Rakin: Ow, goodness... GM: Like, if he had rolled.. regular, for example. In your round, you would have advantage. Even if he had failed to take it off. Since he failed, he comes closer and doesn't even know where to grab. You see... Cesar, that Liz is not being just held by the arms and claws of this creature, But its tail is also all curled up around Liz. You don't even know where to start to take it off. Now it's Joui. Luba: Joui wants to try to
cut at the base of the tentacle that's on Thiago- It's a tentacle, right? GM: No, wait... Luba: Then Joui wants to pierce the sword in the creature's head. GM: Thiago's creature? Luba: Yeah, Thiago's. GM: Ok, you can attack with disadvantage. Luba: With disadvantage? GM: Yes, it's wrapped around Thiago, you could hit him instead. Luba: Ok. Rakin: Jesus Christ. Gabi: Dear Lord. Rakin: I lift my shield in his direction. Luba: Master, one was good and the other was regular. GM: Regular. Luba: Regular, right? GM: Ok, let's see… You hit it. Rakin: Nice, Joui! Luba: I have
to roll a d8, right? GM: Yeah. Luba: [blowing the dice] Oh, an 8! GM: You got an 8? Thiago, once again, you see this creature opening its mouth to give you another bite. You think could be lethal now. Then, you see passing behind you. [slicing sound] A katana. [stabbing sound] Being pierced through the creature's head, keeping its mouth open [cracking sound] You see its black tongue [threatening sounds], kind of trembling inside its mouth. It makes some sort of repulsive noise like this, right at your face. It's very gross, but it's not dead. It keeps holding
you down. Liz. (J: Thiago-sensei, try to escape. Run.) Your turn. T: Thanks, Joui. Gabi: Strength again? (GM: Yeah.) Calango: Now's the time, Liz, now's the time. Gabi: I got 2! Luba: The dice have forgiven us. GM : You- you.. Cesar, you grab one of its paws and you pull it back. When you do it,Liz has already noticed a spot, where she can shove her hand into the creature's body. She shoves it in and [tearing sound] rips it completely, the creature unwraps her and [pushing sound] is thrown over to the side. Liz is free to interact
from now on. Thiago, it's your turn. Rakin: I have to escape from the creature first. GM: You have to take the strength test. Rakin: Ok, let's get this strength going. Ah, we got it, I failed. Can I try again since the creature is weak? GM: Definitely not, because it got a 3 in its roll. Rakin: It's a strong one, huh? GM: You guys see Thiago, since he's holding his shield and sword, it's keeping him stuck there, and he can't move his arm. Because it's being blocked by the shield. He's trying to get rid of it,
but he can't. Now, it's the creatures’ turn again. The creature that was thrown to the side, has now adjusted itself in the correct posture, and now... Wait, Joui, you came here, right? No, you were here. Since it was thrown in Joui's direction, is going to take advantage of the impulse and [growls] jump towards Joui to bite him. Dodge or fight back? Luba: Dude, I want to fight back too. Wait... I’ll tell you my plan soon. Regular, Regular- Luba: What Joui wants to do is- (GM:You hit it, you hit it.) Luba: See if the creature is
coming and position the sword in its direction. GM: You pull out your sword, look to the side and you see this creature coming. Then you stab it again. Give the damage. Calango: An 8, huh? Luba: I even lost the dice. Got it, wait... 7, ooh! GM: Ok GM: Cool, you see the creature opening its mouth while jumping in your direction. By reflex you stab it, and you make a skewer out of it. It's stuck in your sword [choking sounds] and then it pulls back. You see it completely open in the middle, pouring out black goop.
Luba: Immediately, Joui looks at Thiago and screams again. J: Thiago-sensei, can you escape? GM: Now the wolf... (T: I'm trying) The wolf that's on Thiago. Has a better angle now, and it's gonna try to bite Thiago's face. Calango: No, not Thiago's face! (Rakin: He loves my face.) GM: It gets it, and Thiago loses 6 HP. Luba: [UHG] It gives your face a big bite, sticking its teeth in You feel it squeezing your skull. This big dog is piercing its teeth in your skin and it doesn't want to let go. You see its mouth from inside,
its saliva is black and it's dripping all over your face. The creature that is all wrapped around Thiago is going to bite him too. it's going to bite his body while the other bites his face. It gets it as well Rakin: Nice. GM: You take 4 of damage, Thiago. But you don't take it because your armor is pretty resistant. And once again, it can't really figure out where in your shield She can break it of. The other three mist creatures go towards Cesar, (Calango: Towards Cesar) GM: One goes towards Liz, because she's the closest to
it. and the other tries to hold Cesar down. Calango: Dodge everything. GM: You can dodge, yes. Calango: I got regular. GM: You manage dodge from the one that tries to hold you, and the other comes trying to hit you. Calango: Ok… I failed. GM: You take the hit. It punches you and you lose 3 HP. You dodge from the one that tried to grab you. You look back and dodge when it tries to grab you, you look at the one you had dodged in the first place [POW] fuck- GM: Hello? Ok, wait, I- [laughs] That
was nerve-racking, why did this happen?! Dude, everything fell on the floor… Geez, man, I thought I wouldn't be able to continue. I'm logging in, I'm logging in to fix it. Hi, hi, guys- Rakin: You punched it? No no no, dude- You guys have no idea. Hello? Wait. GM: You guys have no idea. (Rakin: You punched it yourself?!) No, wait- let me explain. Calango: We were not okay, dude! GM: Wait, wait, wait- GM: Say something. Rakin: Pow! Calango: Hello? Gabi: Hi, hi hi hi hi. GM: Ok, it's all good. Jesus Christ, that was scary… But it's
ok, it's ok. Dude, I have a sound table here and the thing- Calango: It fell?! GM: It fell on the floor and unplugged all the cables! Calango: Fuck! (Luba: Wow, man!) GM: I had to reconnect everything quickly, but it's all good. I fixed it, I fixed it... That was so scary, man. Calango: Dude, that punch must have killed me, then. Cesar is gone! GM: For some reason, you guys feel like the whole world blacked out for a moment. And Cesar just took the strongest punch in history, The punch of God- There it go. Are you
guys hearing everthing? Calango: Yeah, yeah. (GM: Oh, that's good.) Rakin: Are you ok? GM: Yeah, I am, I am- [laughs] Dude, you guys have no idea of the number of things that fell from my desk It was so scary. Ok... (Gabi: You have no idea what we went through here.) [laughs] GM: Ok, let's keep going. Cesar, you lose 3 HP because of this punch. You dodged, you looked back and [pow] And I'm a much calmer now. Oh, someone's making echo. Luba: It's not me (Calango: Is it me?) GM: I hear someone making an echo... OK
(Luba: No, it’s me) Rakin: Wait, say something, is it me again? GM: Ah! No, it’s safe. It’s safe. Ok. You lose 3 HP and that's it. Then, a creature going to attack Liz now. Dodge or fight back? Gabi: I wanna fight back. (GM: Ok.) Gabi: I got good. GM: You take a punch from behind, you didn't see it coming. You were looking at the creature in front of you, you let it go, and suddenly, you feel a punch in your ribs. You lose... 3 HP Gabi: Jesus, I'll be on my way tonight. GM: Now the
big horse, it stands and neighs like [neighs] and [poo] hits its two hooves on Joui… Dodge or fight back, Joui? Luba: Dodge and I got good. GM: You dodge. (Luba: I wanna roll to the side.) You roll to the side and [sliding sound] you pass to the side, and you see where the big hooves hit the soil [thump] it sinks and then it scattered in the air. You'd have hurt you pretty bad… Now it's Joui... No, sorry. Where's the order? Here, it's Cesar. Calango: It's me now? GM: Yes. Calango: Can I run in this direction?
GM: Where? Calango: Right here? right here ? (GM: Yeah, you can.) Calango: Ok. I run and while I do it, i say: Ce: I'm sorry for anything, Big T! Calango: Then I'm gonna aim my sling at the creature that's on him. GM: Ok. you can. (Calango: With disadvantage, right?) GM: Yes. Calango: I'm fucked. (Rakin: I lower my head.) Calango: I already failed bro... failed both. GM: I said the horse had two legs but i just remembered it only had one... So it raised just one leg and hit with it. Just fixing it. OK, how much
damage did you do? Calango: I failed. GM: You failed both? Calango: Both. GM: You hit Thiago. Calango: bro... Calango: Do I have to roll the damage? (GM: Yes.) Calango: 1d6 plus 1. (GM: Yes.) Calango: 2, then it's 3 damage points. GM: You're trying to hit this creature that is wrapped around Thiago, you shoot and [metal sound] it hits on his shield and ricochets, so you hit neither the creature nor Thiago. Now it's Joui's turn. Luba: Ok, Joui stands between the horse and the wolf, and he wants to help Thiago but... GM: That sounds like a
book title, doesn't it? Luba: What? GM: Between the horse and the wolf, sounds like a book title. Calango: That's true. Luba: Dude, what's going on with today's session? GM: Let's continue then... [laughs] Luba: Then Joui will attack the wolf with the sword, (GM: OK) and he passed regular. GM: You hit it, the wolf turns around and it growls at you and you hit it with your sword. Luba: Damage? GM: Yup. Luba: 6! GM: You cut the wolf, you stab him violently and the sword goes deeply into the wolf's body, He [painful growl] makes a high
pitched growl... a terrible sound, and you pull the sword back. He's almost sliced in half, but he's still standing and he turns to you... Joui: Come at me! (GM: It's Liz's turn.) Rakin: Can I spit on it? when it did to try continue to... GM: You can, I'll leave your action free, so you can spit on it. Rakin: Ok, I'll spit on the fucker then. J: Thiago-sensei! J: try to get away from the thing first. (T: I'm trying!) GM: Now it's Liz's turn. Gabi: I wanna run back and get closer To where the corpse is.
GM: The corpse is more to the left. Gabi: I'm not running towards the corpse, I'm running back. (GM: OK, OK. ) GM: OK. You run back somewhat close to where you guys killed the creature. OK. J: Liz? GM: Now it's Thiago's turn. Gabi: I'm just hiding here, I'm fucked. Rakin: The famous strength test again? GM: Yeah... Rakin: damn, i failed... (GM: You feel the creature give in, eventually...) GM: ...Did you fail? You [struggle sound] try to get out, but you feel the creature purposely [swoosh] Unwrap itself from you, and it tries to bite you. Rakin:
Can I fight it back? (GM: You're not...) GM: No, because you didn't pass the strength test. No. In its turn, it gets away and attacks you. But it couldn't hit you because once again it bites a part of your armor and it doesn't hurt you. It hits you, but it doesn't hurt you. So it unwraps itself and falls in front of you with its claws out. [hiss] And now it’s the wolf, which is called Nidere, his name. and it jumps on Joui, Kind of sliced in half and you see that the back half is kind
of dangling compared to the front half. You almost sliced it in half, and it goes [growling sound] to jump towards you. Do you wanna fight back or dodge? Luba: I wanna fight back. GM: Ok. Luba: Let me see if it was good or regular. No, it was regular, regular. GM: Regular? It hits you. (Luba: Yes) And you lose 5 HP. It is furious and very... ...wounded, Sliced apart, and while it holds you down, the inferior part of its body falls [breaking] on the ground, it only has the superior part of its body, It holds your
shoulders and he [biting] bites your neck. It’s on top of you now. J: Thiago-sensei, run! (GM: And now...) GM: That one-legged horse returns [heavy steps sound] in Liz's direction, but it can't run faster because it only has one front leg, So it uses its tentacles once again as a species of spear, and it throws many of those spears in her direction. Calango: damn. Dodge or fight back? Gabi: I will... Gabi: I'll fight back. My best status… I got extreme, Master. GM: Your strength is 6, right? Gabi: It's a d4 each sickle. GM: No, it's a
d6 for both of them. No, it's a d6 because you use the same Fight from before, Since you don't have the 40% you have a d6. You see those tentacles, you're wounded and trying to hide from the battle. You see the one-legged bizarre horse coming towards you. and you use your sickles to defend yourself, and they chop a good amount of the tentacles that were launched towards you. You see this creature [painful growl] making an agonizing sound from inside of it, and it’s oozing a whole lot of goop from the place where its head should
be because there's barely any tentacle in there. The mist creatures, One of them comes towards Thiago, one towards Liz. And another towards Cesar. One attack each Liz first, dodge or fight back? Gabi: I'll fight back, it's all we can do. I got good. GM: You get punched, since you were so focused on the tentacles of the horse you didn't see this solid part of the mist and it hits you on the ribs. It causes 2 damage points, so you don't even feel it because it punched you on your armor, You just feel like you were
pushed. The other creature's gonna try to grab Thiago. Rakin: I'll dodge. GM: You can do it. (Rakin: Let's dodge this thing!) Rakin: For God's sake, I'm only failing today. I failed. GM: You failed? You see the mist holding you down, but you feel like you can easily escape and do something in your next action. You're not immobile. and the mist is gonna try to hit Cesar. Calango: I rolled earlier, when you said that it attacked I rolled the dice. I got good, 29. GM: Dodge or fight back? Calango: Dodge. GM: Ok, you jump back but
you didn't expect to have something solid right behind you, and [POW] you get punched at the back of your neck. Ce: Ouch! GM: You lose 3 HP. Ce: Ugh. GM: You feel a bit dizzy. Now it's... Now it's your turn. Calango: Is this thing still solid? GM: Yes, everything that attacked you guys now is solid. They stay solid until the end of the round. Calango: Ok, I scream: Ce: Guys, what are you doing? Run, Holy Cradle is in this direction! Calango: Then I walk back a little, and I'm gonna shoot at the thing that punched
me on the neck, bro. Calango: I got regular. GM: You hit it, what's the damage? Calango: Now it's time to get a 6, huh! I got 2, 3 damage points. GM: You see your little metal bullet [pew] It slows down and then continues going forward. You're not sure if you've caused much damage or not, but you see that it did hit something in the mist, you see that it cut off a part of the mist. Now it’s Joui's turn. Luba: Ok, Joui's gonna respond to Cesar: J: I'm trying, Cesar-kun! Just run! Luba: And he wants
to shove the sword Luba: into the creature. (GM: OK) Luba: I got good… wait... Luba: Yeah, it was good. (GM: OK. let me see…) You... GM: You try to stab it, and it Bites your neck even harder. You lose 6 HP. Calango: Wow, dude... (Rakin: What?!) GM: I got extreme, couldn't do anything. Luba: Delicious. GM: You were preparing to stab it, looking for the best angle, and [biting] he sinks his teeth deeper into your skin, and it starts bleeding a lot. The wound hurts like crazy. (Luba: Delicious!) GM: It's Liz Gabi: Master, with one sickle
on each hand, can I try to hit both Gabi: creatures at the same time? (GM: No, no...) GM: ...The two sickles work like one weapon it's one attack for both of them. Gabi: OK. GM: You can try to attack twice with the sickles, but you're gonna have 2 disadvantages in both. like when you shoot twice. Gabi: Okay... Then I'm gonna try... I'm gonna attack... Each of them... I'm gonna try attack each of them twice. GM: No, you can only attack one person twice. GM: I mean, one creature. (Gabi: OK. Then...) Gabi: ...I'm gonna attack the
horse once. (GM: Right.) Gabi: Wait… I got good. GM: You hit it. Gabi: I got 6 damage points. GM: How do you wanna kill it? Gabi: I have a sickle on each hand, I wanna pierce the tips in its head where the goop is oozing from, and I'm gonna force it outwards and tear it apart like this, Tear it apart like this, opening it in half. GM: Then you guys see Liz get punched, but she didn’t even look at her side, she maintained herself focused. She pushes her sickles into the horse and opens it up
as if it was a double door [screech] and goop starts pouring out of the thing, and everything becomes liquid And it starts to melt in front of her. And the goop slowly starts dissipating with the mist. Calango: For fuck's sake... GM: Now it’s Thiago's turn, he's free. Rakin: If I try to hit the wolf I might hit Joui, right? GM: Yeah. You're gonna have a disadvantage and if you fail both of them you're gonna hit him. Rakin: OK. What if I try to pull out the wolf's head? GM: You can try to pull the wolf
away, GM: take a strength test. (Rakin: If I run...) Rakin: ...If I run towards the wolf and hit it straight on the wolf, Rakin: do I have to take the strength test? (GM: There's only half a wolf...) GM: ... clinging to Joui Rakin: Strength test to pull the wolf out then. GM: OK. J: Thiago-sensei, just run! T: I'm not leaving you here! GM: OK, what did you get? Rakin: I failed. GM: You grab the wolf's head... you try to open its mouth but its jaw is too strong, the teeth are too deep into Joui’s skin,
you can barely pull it away. you're trying to pull it out but it [growling] and it won't let Joui go. Now it's the wolf's turn, and it’s gonna try to bite Joui even harder. Joui, you can either fight back or dodge.. Actually, no. You can't because it’s clinging to you, but you can take a strength test to push it away. Luba: Strength? (GM: Yeah, instead of dodging.) Luba: Then I'm gonna take a strength test… I'm gonna blow the dice because it seems to be working. Oh! I got extreme... Wait, no no. It was good, master.
Almost made it. GM: It was good? You feel like it's gonna bite you harder, and you see Thiago trying to pull it away. You hold its mouth In front of you and it can't bite you any deeper, because you're holding its mouth. It doesn't want to let go of you, it’s very angry, [growling] you hear a demonic growl coming out of it, all of you feel like these creatures are way more aggressive towards you guys now than they were in your first encounter with them. almost like they're trying to show you guys that they are
extremely angry. Now it's the creatures' turn, and they run towards Thiago. One of them will try to wrap itself around him again. Dodge or fight back, Thiago? Rakin: Dodge everything. J: Run! Rakin: Only one dodge? GM: There are two attacks and one of them is Wrapping. Rakin: Ok, then it's two dodges. It can't be possible, dude... GM: You failed both of them? Ok, then you- (Rakin: I failed) Rakin: It can't be real, dude. I can't believe it. (GM: Once again, this creature) GM: gets on top of you and it starts wrapping itself around your arms...
Let me check something. Ok. you feel like it didn't grab you so firmly this time, it is clearly not as strong as the first time so you won't take too long to get rid of it. The one in the back, it bites you on the shoulder, you lose 2 HP... Nothing. It bites your armor, and the shield also makes you very strong. The mist that's right next to you will try to punch you on the face with advantage because you're being held down. Rakin: By my side ? GM: Yeah, there's a solid mist creature right
next to you You take... You don't lose any HP points, it punches you on the face, you feel the pain, but it wasn't bad enough. The creature holding you softens the blow. The other mist creature will attack Liz, dodge or attack? Gabi: Attack again. I got extreme. GM: You see this creature coming at you, You've just ripped the horse apart right in front of you, and when it's dissipating you look away and see this thing coming and as a reflex you hit it with your sickles, and most of the mist disappears... but you feel like
there's still something solid in there. And now the other creature will fly towards Cesar and will attack him. Dodge or fight back? Calango: Extreme dodge, I got 7. GM: You easily jump to the side and slide a little on the ground, and you prepare for the next attack. It's your turn, Cesar. Calango: Is the wolf still biting Joui? GM: Joui is holding it with its mouth open like this, with all the strength he has. Calango: And these three are all attacking Thiago? GM: Yes. Calango: Holy shit. This guy isn't solid anymore, right? GM: It is
solid, and it just attacked you. Calango: Then I'm gonna shoot it again. GM: Go ahead. Calango: I failed. GM: You think you know exactly what's a creature and what isn't, you shoot at a spot that you think is solid, but you see your bullet passing straight through the mist. Now it's Joui's turn. Ce: Guys, what are you doing?! Just run! J: I can't- (T: Not possible!) GM: Joui, you need to keep... Actually, you don't have to if you don't want to. You can let go of the wolf if you want. Luba: Ok. (GM: And you
have one free action, you can attack.) Luba: Can I get away from it? GM: You can, yes. Luba: Can I push it away? Luba: Do I have the strength to do that? (GM: Take a throwing test.) Luba: Ok, that's what I wanna do then. I wanna throw it as far as I can. Luba: Throw test, right? GM: Yes. Luba: Throw is good… Master, I got regular. GM: Regular? You can throw it away, it goes [dog crying] and you see that it’s immediately [growls] trying to attack you again, but it only has half of its body
now. Now it's Liz's turn. Gabi: This one... This shadow here, is it still solid or have I killed it already? GM: It's solid, you can see that there's something there. Gabi: I'm gonna attack. GM: Okay. Gabi: I got good. GM: You hit it. Gabi: I got 13 damage points. GM: You attack it by reflex, and you take advantage of the inertia to pull it back, and all the mist that's in front of you dissipates. You can't see any more solid figures there… Now it's Thiago's turn. Rakin: Dude, I'm gonna try to attack the snake that's
already screwed. GM: Both of them are very wounded. (Rakin: Either of them.) GM: The one that's right in front of you is the one... (Rakin: Can i try...) GM: The one Joui stabbed in the mouth. Rakin: Is there a possibility that Joui is near me? GM: Yes. Rakin: I'm gonna attack the snake Rakin: in front of me. GM: You can attack. Rakin: I even switched to physical dice now that I'm pissed. (GM: That's how I like it.) Rakin: This shit is broken, totally broken… [laughs] Rakin: I failed. GM: Failed? GM: You let down your guards
to attack it, and it surprises you... Oh no, wait. You were being held down, right? GM: You couldn't even attack, anyway. (Rakin: Oh, I was...) GM: You're being held in this round, (Rakin: I was being held?) GM: let me write this down. (Rakin: Can I try to escape with a strength test?) GM: You can, yeah (Rakin: Try to get out?) GM: to see if you're gonna be attacked on the next round. Rakin: Are you kidding me, dude? I got a 98, how is that even possible?! GM: You can’t open it, and in its round, it’s
going to take advantage of that. You see it opening its mouth to bite you, and it unwraps itself from you again because it is very wounded, so it can’t hold you down for too long. You can fight back. Rakin: Oh, I’ll fight back then. Calango: I can’t believe it, man! Rakin: Dude, I’m so screwed… Guaxinim did some type of ritual. I’ll make this work. I have 32 fighting points and I got 38, I failed. GM: You failed? Calango: Oh, man... GM: It looks like it’s going to bite you again, it clings to you and it
bites you, But it’s a quick bite because it’s weak. It lets go of you and stands in front of you, and it didn’t cause much damage, you barely feel like it attacked you. Rakin: It took the bad luck out of me when it bit me, bro. GM: Now it’s their turn. The one standing behind you will attack you too, you can either dodge or fight back. Rakin: Dodge… Failed. GM: You lose… (Calango: Dude, it can’t be possible!) GM: You lose 3 HP. I think your armor is quite OP, huh? I'll check on it later, but
let’s go. Rakin: Well, you gave me the choice, master. GM: I know, I know. I’ll check on it later, we’re balancing it out because this theme isn’t exactly for that, but let’s go. That wolf, it comes back crawling towards Joui slowly reaches your foot and tries to bite you. You can dodge with an advantage or fight back. Luba: I wanna fight back. GM: Ok. Luba: No advantage? The thing’s slowed down! (GM: No advantage.) GM: It’s slow and that’s why it's easy to dodge, but To fight back, you still have to attack, and you don't have
advantage on that. Luba: I got extreme, I got extreme! GM: Luba… Calango: Hey, today’s the day Joui is going to carry us. (GM: Luba, Luba…) GM: How do you wanna kill it, Luba? Luba: Wait, did I hear that and I’m not dreaming?! [laugh] Did I hear that outside of a dream?! GM: You may kill it. Luba: Ok! Luba: The foot where... (Gabi: It was my first time today, too.) Luba: Joui noticed that the wolf was going to bite him, so he dodges a little and grabs his sword to pierce it through the creature’s head. GM:
You pierce the sword through its head, you see its mouth opening and [PSHEW] closing like it’s a sandwich [PSHEW] as it’s smashed on the ground, and it goes [crying dog sounds] It starts to turn into goop and dissipate in the air. You spot where its lower body was and you hadn’t noticed that it had turned into goop, too. Now it’s... ok, let’s go The mist creatures that are on Thiago and Cesar go towards them to attack once again. Thiago’s creature will only hit him and not cause any damage because of his armor, I won’t even
try to attack. [laugh] The one going towards Cesar will punch him. Calango: I got 100, I got 100. GM: And I got an extreme! Calango: Fuck me! GM: You lose 3 HP, you see the mist creature going towards you and you get punched in the face, on both sides [POW] and you get a little dizzy, you keep getting punched. Luba: Are you ok over there? Cellbit? (GM: Yeah, it’s all good.) Luba: I don’t know, you mentioned a punch and “pow”. (GM: Not this time!) GM: Yeah, I know, I know… Fuck it. Now it’s Cesar’s turn.
Calango: Dude, I don’t know! I’ll run in this direction, man. Calango: Why is no one running!? (J: Cesar!) Calango: I’m gonna shoot this thing, I’m not letting you guys behind. GM: Go on. Gabi: Aww, how sweet... (Calango: I got regular.) GM: Roll the damage. Calango: Yay, it’s 6… 5! So it’s 6 because it’s a d6+1. GM: 6 damage points? Calango: Yeah. GM: You see in a specific moment in this attack that the creature was lower like this, you find an angle at which your bullet is gonna pass through its entire body. You aim and you
release it, and you just see the bullet going through and dissipating the whole mist in front of you. Calango: Thank God! I was so tired of getting beat up. GM: Now it’s Joui. Luba: Joui wants to run towards Cesar, but as he does that he wants to hit the creature with his sword. Is that possible, master? GM: You can run and attack with disadvantage. Luba: With disadvantage? GM: Yeah, because it’s an action in movement. Luba: Ok. Luba: Ok, this one was regular… And this one was also regular, a better regular but still regular GM: I
don’t know what’s happening with my dice today, dude. GM: You run past Thiago, you try to hit that creature And when you try to attack it, the thing wraps itself around you and bites exactly where the wolf had bitten you before. You start to bleed a lot, you lose 4 HP and the creature [growling sound] punctures its teeth deeper into the wound, and it’s right on top of you as it eats the flesh where the wolf had bitten before. GM: You’re gonna be unconscious now... (Luba: Am I dead?) GM: No, because you had a serious
injury, right? Luba: No. GM: Then you’re unconscious, you’re not dead. GM: you're not dying, You're unconscious. Luba: I have 0 HP then? GM: You have -1. Calango: Oh, how is that? GM: You can put it on 0, you have 0 HP. Calango: He took- He took 4 damage points, doesn’t he have 2 armor points? GM: Oh, right! That’s right, you have 2 armor points. (Luba: Right!) GM: Then you’re not dead, no. It just bit you, I forgot about that detail. Thank you for reminding us, Cesar. (Luba: I forgot about it, too.) GM: You’re safe, you’re
safe. GM: The creature’s on top of you, eating your flesh. And it hurts like crazy, and you were carrying the thing on you as you run. You have one more creature clinging to you. Calango: Oh, man... GM: Now it’s Liz’s turn. (Luba: I miss the spider) Gabi: Ok, can I see anything right now because of the mist? GM: Joui, you have 1 HP. Luba: Oh, I had 3, right? Sorry. Gabi: Can I see what’s happening, master? GM: Take a finding test, please. Gabi: Good... (J: AAAAA!) GM: Good? (Luba: Now she saw it.) GM: You can
hear Joui screaming and a mess that you can’t really understand. Gabi: Ok, then at this moment I’ll go into a frenzy when I hear Joui’s screams, and I start to run the fastest I can in the direction of the creature. GM: You get here, you can’t reach them. Gabi: Ok. GM: Now it’s Thiago. Rakin: If I miss 2 attacks I’ll hit Joui, right? GM: Yes. Rakin: I wanna try to take the snake off of him. GM: Ok, you go towards them, you jump on top of Joui and you try to pull the creature off of
him. T: Joui, no! GM: Strength test. J: Just run, Thiago-sensei! T: No! Rakin: Wait… Wow, I got 2, thank God! GM: You see this creature biting and eating part of Joui’s flesh, and you say, “No!” and you pull it out with all of your strength, holding it by its snake-like body, oozing goop over you. You’re holding it right before your body. What will you do with it? Just hold it or do you wanna throw it away? Rakin: Can I try to rip it apart with the 2 points I got in the dice after failing 15
times? GM: No, it had to be an attack, that’s something else. Luba: Can I attack? GM: You can... Wait, no. It’s not your turn, it’s the creatures’ turn. Rakin: I just wanna hold it up like this and say: T: Someone kill it! GM: You’ll just hold it up, ok. The creature sees Liz running past it and it tries to attack her Do you dodge or fight back? Gabi: I’ll dodge And I... got regular. GM: You get attacked, you’re running and the creature grabs you by the leg and bites your thigh. You lose... 4 HP. Luba:
[whine] GM: It bites your thigh with all its strength. It squeezes you and you feel it like a huge press, like it was squeezing your thigh on the flesh part, doing a huge pinch. Calango: Don’t forget the armor, huh? Gabi: I didn’t, I only took 3 points. GM: The mist will try to hold Thiago down and if it does, you’re gonna let the creature go. GM: Take a dodge or strength... (Rakin: You kidding, man) GM: Actually don’t because it missed. All good. You see the mist trying to hold you, but you stand still holding the
creature mostly because you got an extreme. And the one that was clinging to Joui will try to bite him again, to make his wound deeper. Rakin: But I’m holding this one. (Luba: It’s not clinging to me anymore.) GM: Oh, that’s right! Wait- let me do this to make it clear to me or else I’m gonna get lost. My bad... No, wait... Wait, it’s all good. Rakin: He wants to kill you, Joui! GM: Noooo, I don’t! I’m just doing what the creatures would do, but I got lost in this part. Alright, that was your round. Now
it’s Cesar. Calango: Do I have… For fuck’s sake. Joui’s right in front of the creature, dude? Do I have a disadvantage even if Thiago is holding the thing up purposefully for someone to attack? GM: Yes, he’s holding the thing up and you have to aim it, you can’t control it. Calango: Right. Can I get there, in the first place? GM: You can get there, you can. You run and you get right here. Calango: That mist creature is pretty close, right? GM: Yes. It's solid Calango: I can’t fucking do anything, dude. GM: In your angle... (Calango:
If I approach...) GM: You don’t have any disadvantage right now because it’s like... it’s a straight angle, there’s no way you can hit Thiago. Calango: Oh, yeah? I’m gonna shoot it then. GM: Do it. Calango: I got an 8! It was extreme, my extreme is 8! GM: Ok Calango: Max damage is 7. (GM: Let me see which mist is it) GM: 7 damage points? Calango: Yup. GM: You see the mist creature trying to hold Thiago, And you shoot it beautifully. Dude, you see you’ve dissipated 90% of the mist, there’s just a little bit trying to
form itself back in front of Thiago. Now it’s Joui, you’re bleeding a lot, you’re very wounded, and you saw Thiago pulling this thing off of you. You feel you would pass out of pain if he hadn’t taken the snake off of you. J: Thank you, Thiago-sensei. Luba: And I wanna attack the thing. (T: Don’t thank me, just run.) Luba: I’ll attack the thing, do I have an advantage? GM: No. Ah! Since it’s physical, yeah, you have advantage because he’s holding it. Yes. Luba: I failed one, the other was good. I failed one, and the other
was good. GM: Roll the damage, you got it. Luba: Dear Jesus. Luba: 6, master. GM: Thiago is holding it up and says: "Someone hit it!" You slice the creature in half, goop pours from both sides, and it disappears right in front of you. J: Can we run now, please? T: Liz is still being attacked. GM: Yeah, the creature is squeezing Liz’s thigh. Now it’s her turn. Gabi: Visually, how’s the situation of this creature? (Luba: I didn’t see, I was down.) GM: You can’t really tell because they don’t bleed like an animal, all of them keep
oozing goop. It is wounded, but you don’t know how much. Gabi: Eu vou atacar. I got an extreme! GM: This creature is clinging to your thigh, you see the perfect moment to use your scythe as a hook, and you fit it on the creature’s neck and pull it, and it hangs like a fish you've just fished, and it starts to turn into goop in front of you, and vanishes. And now it’s Thiago. Rakin: I wanna attack this thing here, the mist that’s trying to transform again. The last attack. GM: Go ahead. (Calango: I failed. Rakin:
I failed) GM: Fuck, Rakin. What is this dice, dude? (Luba: For God’s sake.) GM: I’m feeling a weird balance between Gabi who only gets extremes, and Rakin who never gets a success. Man, the universe is playing tricks... Rakin: If you take out my armor... (Gabi: Do you wanna borrow my dice, Rakin?) Rakin: No, I prefer my armor and that guy wants to take it from me. Don’t do that... GM: The mist creature will pass by Thiago, intangible, and will go towards Liz who’s more wounded. It realizes that it can’t hurt Thiago at all, so it’s
gonna attack Liz instead. Dodge or fight back? Luba: Fuck, is it intelligent? Gabi: I’ll fight back because I know I’ll fail if I dodge. I got regular. GM: It punches Liz, and it gives... 2 damage points. GM: Yeah, it’s nothing because of the armor. You take another punch, but you just feel the pain because it didn’t hurt at all. Now it’s Cesar. Calango: Do I have any disadvantage if I shoot from here? GM: Not from this angle. Calango: Then let’s go… Now I failed, I got a 95. GM: The bullet just passes far from the
thing, you don’t even know where it went. But also, it’s a mist inside the mist and it’s far from you, you’d have a disadvantage anyway... so you shot hoping it’d hit but it didn’t. GM: Joui. Calango: Oh- ah, alright. GM: You can speak if you want, it’s a free action, or move. (Calango: No no,) Calango: I just wanna ask if I can pay attention to our surroundings, but I think that’s another action. Right GM: Finding test on your next turn. (Calango: Can I?) GM: Yeah, it’s a free action. GM: Looking is a free action. (Calango:
OK) Calango: I want to take a look to see if there are more things coming, then. GM: OK. Luba: Dude, Joui is very... (Calango: I got regular.) GM: You look around, and there’s a lot of mist. You think at least near you, nothing is coming. But you can’t really tell, you're not sure. Calango: Alright. GM: Now it’s Joui’s turn. Luba: Joui is very wounded, very very wounded, but he... He wants to help his friends, he can’t ignore it. GM: OK. Luba: It’s solid, right? GM: Yes. Luba: It was attacking, and Joui will attack it with
his sword. GM: Joui comes limping, severely wounded and still bleeding, with his sword covered in his own blood and a bit of black goop, and he hits the mist creature. Luba: I got the cursed number, I got 4. And 4 is extreme. GM: You see Joui dragging himself like this, do you wanna say anything before your attack? J: Leave... my friends alone! GM: He says that and- (Luba: I pull my sword...) Luba: ...from underneath. GM: Oh, from underneath? He lifts his sword and slices the mist in half, It dissipates and he falls to his knees.
He can’t hold himself up any longer, breathless and bleeding a lot. J: We need to get out of here… There might be more creatures coming... GM: And the combat is over. T: You guys need help. Can you walk fine, Joui? J: Yeah, I can. I can run. Ce: Are you guys ok? Is everyone alright? J: No, Cesar… No. (L: Thiago… Cesar…) T: Liz? (L: The corpse.) J: No, there’s no time for the corpse. No time for the corpse, Liz-senpai. T: You are the priority. (Ce: We better head back.) Ce: I won't go after that corpse
now. (L: We did all of this-) L: We need to bring the corpse with us. T: Cesar, at least take a photo of the corpse. We won’t take it with us, but take a photo. Your phone is still on. Ce: Joui, can you give me my phone, please? Luba: I throw him his phone. (Calango: I take it and turn it on.) GM: The phone is on. Calango: I walk to the corpse but I stop before I get too close, and I want to see if there’s any creatures. GM: Now that you’ve turned the phone on,
you see that there is no signal and the date and hours are unknown because there’s no service and it couldn’t update the phone’s server. Calango: Ok, I walk closer and check for creatures again. GM: Ok, you start walking... (Calango: Mainly near the body.) GM: You start walking towards the corpse, you look around with attention, you see the mist moving but you can’t tell what that is. Now that you’ve finished the battle, you notice the mist moving rather quickly, like there’s wind pushing and circling it around you guys. T: Come on, guys! Ce: Guys, go ahead!
Thiago, keep him safe. Calango: I get closer to the corpse and I take a photo, I even turn the body in case it’s facing down, and I take a photo of his face. Calango: Can I do it? GM: Ok. You did it, you start the camera and you get close to the face, You look at him and you feel intense sadness. You see a desperate creature that died completely alone and scared, and you take a photo of him. Now there’s a lot more blood, and his veins are swollen because the shot hit him on the
temple, and there’s a mix of saliva and goop pouring from his mouth. Calango: Alright. They didn’t run yet? I... J: Cesar? T: Joui and Liz, stay close to me. T: I’m not leaving Cesar alone, so stay close to me. Gabi: I lean on Thiago’s shoulder, and stay by his side. Ce: Done, let’s go. (Rakin: I offer Joui my arm.) Ce: Joui, stay behind me. J: I can run, guys. I’m fine, I swear. T: No, I won't let anything touch you, dude. I won’t. So just stay close. J: Thanks, Thiago-sensei, but we really need to run.
Let’s go. Ce: Let’s go both ahead then, Thiago. T: Sure. Luba: To Holy Cradle. (Calango: Thiago and I are ahead.) GM: OK, so you guys are leaving this area? Back to Holy Cradle? Anything else here? Calango: Nothing else. GM: Right. Luba: After the master's suspicious question, I’m questioning myself. GM: Fine, I’m just asking. Gabi: Liz's very reluctant, She doesn’t want to leave the body but she’s too fucked to drag it. Rakin: I just wanna leave, everyone’s fucked... I don’t want more danger. J: We can come back when we're in better shape. L: The corpse won’t
be here anymore, Joui. GM: You walk with difficulty, all of you together, paying attention to the surroundings, afraid of what could be in the mist, you see solid parts of the mist, but it dissipates, it’s like the mist isn’t attacking you, throwing things at you, but… Joui, you felt like you had left someone furious earlier, and now you feel like this was a message. You pass through the thicker mist, you walk for a while without even seeing what’s right before you, you almost bump into the trees in front of you, And then finally you get
back to Holy Cradle. And once you’re there, you immediately see that huge cow still doing [mooooo], and Arthur standing next to it: A: It’s OK, it’s OK. You’ll get better, Jennifer. Calango: Oh, poor Arthur. I have the sling in my hand and I’m on the front, right? Oops... J: We need to see the Doctor, I’m in so much pain… He can help. Ce: Do you think we can cross the town right now, with all this mist? T: He’s severely wounded, Cesar. There’s no way we can leave Liz and Joui like this. Ce: Can't Liz do
something? (L: I’ll take care of Joui.) Ce: Yeah, because if we try to cross the whole town we’ll find more of those mist creatures, And then what? T: Cesar, what if we leave them here and go get the green crystals, you and me? Ce: That’s a good idea, yeah. J: Liz-senpai and I will wait in the barn... GM: You get there bleeding and you see Arthur standing up: A: Guys? Are you OK? Jesus Christ, you’re all wounded, Joui! J: Arthur-san, I’m OK, just help me get to the barn. A: What happened? What was that thing?
Ugh, I don’t know! I’m worried, I think Jennifer’s going to die. J: Do you think the farmer can help the cow? A: I don’t know, those green crystals... Do you think they work on Jennifer? GM: He starts petting the cow like this: it’s OK, it’s OK. T: We’re going there to get them, Cesar and I. Ce: Yeah, we'll go there. You guys, you stay in the barn and I don’t know, just be careful while we’re out there. A: Take care of Jennifer, I’ll ask the Doctor if he has green crystals to help the cow. T:
Nononono, Arthur. Arthur, you have no idea of what’s outside. Stay here, please. T: Take care of Joui and Liz (A: And Jennifer?) Ce: We’ll bring crystals. A: I won’t leave Jennifer. GM: He frowns and goes back to petting the cow. T: You’d rather protect a cow than your friends? A: She’s not just a cow, Thiago! T: And Joui isn’t just Joui, and Liz isn’t just Liz. GM: He looks like this. A: Why don’t you stay with her then? Then we can take care of everyone... Luba: Joui wants to touch Arthur’s shoulder: J: Arthur-san, there are
so many monsters that are upset with us right now, more than the last time, and they might show up here anytime. We’ll be in the barn, and you take care of Jennifer. GM: He's scared. (J: If needed...) GM: He looks at the cow. (J: If needed...) J: We’ll come and help... Thiago-sensei and Cesar-kun will bring us the green crystals so we can take care of her. A: You guys stay in the barn, I won’t leave her. If any monster comes here, I’ll defend Jennifer. T: Alright. Gabi: Liz lets out a sigh, with a disappointed face.
(J: OK, Arthur-san.) Calango: I’m smiling a little, I’m happy about Arthur’s attitude. J: Arthur-san, if you stay out here, I’ll stay too. A: Of course you won’t, Joui! Look at you, you’re bleeding... God, what did you guys find there? Did you guys find another... J: Alright, just let me ask something… Thiago and Cesar, why are you still here? A: Will you get get crystal?! (Ce: Let’s go, Big T.) T: Let’s get going. Rakin: I run. Calango: Where can we go? L: Come with me, Joui. (Rakin: The house’s here.) Calango: Yeah, but… No, this is the
house. A: Joui, go into the barn. I’ll take care of her, you don’t have to stay. J: No. (T: It’s pretty far.) Ce: Pretty far. J: Stay together. (A: Oh, my God...) A: Then let’s- Oh, Christ. GM: He looks at the cow. A: Jeniffer, you’ll be fine… Let’s go inside then, I don’t want you guys to be in danger. GM: And he walks to the barn. J: She’ll be alright, Arthur-san. Trust me. A: Yeah, but what matters now is that you’re safe, Joui. J: Thank you so much, Arthur-san. GM: You go into the barn, and
it- Luba: This one? GM: It's where the cows are. I thought it was there. You go here then. GM: You go into this one. Luba: The same from before. GM: And Arthur is very worried. A: But what did you guys find there? A: How did you get so wounded? J: We found a creature that looked like a Lusidius, but he was very aggressive and he attacked us. We attacked back and he died, and when he died… It’s like- it’s like we annoyed Holy Cradle. A: I heard it! Man, you weren’t here when it happened, the
Holy Cradle... The labyrinth started screaming and a lot of mist started coming out of there. J: It screamed? A: Didn’t you guys hear the loud noise? J: I heard a... (L: Wait, you said…) L: The labyrinth screamed? A: I don’t know… It sounded like a “TOOOOOM”, didn’t you hear it? J: We did. A: It was very scary... J: We’re here now, we’ll try to figure out everything that happened. But until then, we need to take care of ourselves J: and Jennifer. (L: Yeah.) GM: OK, Thiago and Cesar start running. Calango: I turn my phone off
while we run. GM: Take a luck test. Calango: I got 10, I got 10! It wasn’t an extreme, but it was good. GM: OK. Good, right? Calango: Yes. GM: Your phone has 5% of left, you turn it off. Calango: [whistle] Alright, alright. GM: Do you wanna say anything before they go, Arthur, Liz, and Joui? Gabi: No, while Joui speaks to Arthur, I’m limping towards a pile of hay and I sit there… Master, I have my medkit with me. GM: You used it. Gabi: But we took one before we left Carpazinha Gabi: It was half used.
GM: That’s right. Gabi: I put it in my clothes, right? GM: It’s in your backpack, in the hotel. Gabi: Alright, I just wanted to know. GM: Alright, but you can apply the first aid with what you have right now, but you’ll have a disadvantage. And it’s not first aid, it’s medicine... and medicine takes an hour to be done. Cesar and Thiago, I’ll ask you to- no, I won’t, it’s nothing too important. You run, do you wanna talk while you run? T: Dude, come closer to the shield, Lil’ C. [Inaudible] GM: You notice the mist is
very thick tonight. Calango: We can’t see much, huh? Do we find any monsters on the way? GM: Wait, you’re running and coming in this direction, and suddenly you guys see coming from this place- wait. You look behind yourselves and you just hear: Bs: What’s going on? GM: And you see behind you... Oops, too big. Rakin: Shingeki no Kyojin. (Luba: Colossal Titan.) Rakin: Yeah, it’s him. (GM: You see the Blacksmith in the mist...) GM: ...looking at you a bit concerned. Bs: What happened?! What did you guys do?! (Ce: Blacksmith?) T: We didn’t do anything. Ce: We
dealt with what was killing the cows! T: Exactly! GM: Let me just adjust him... T: Come on, let’s run, let’s run! Blacksmith, don’t stop running! GM: The Blacksmith is standing behind you, he says: Bs: Wait, what... What do you mean? Which creature was killing the cows? What? What did you find? Ce: Come with us, we needto get some green crystals! Let’s go. Bs: I’ve never seen Holy Cradle like this before! GM: He comes running... walking a bit faster towards you guys. Bs: What the... Where are you heading to? Ce: To the Doctor's house! (T: Get
some crystals!) Bs: Why? Ce: Liz and Joui got really hurt in this fight in the forest, and then we need something to help them there. GM: OK, he comes running. Bs: But what did you do? Holy Cradle's more furious than that time you've turned on the fire, I've never this before! T: This creature attacked us and we attacked it back, then Holy Cradle got like this. Bs: What creature?! A forest animal? Ce: I'll show you, I'll show you later, please, can we take the crystals first? I took a photo of it. GM: OK, you come,
the Blacksmith is not running, he's just like, walking fast, trying to follow your pace, from behind. You arrive at the Doctor's place and the door is locked. Calango: OK, I came and just go [knocks] Ce: Doctor?! Doctor?! Calango: And I knock some more. [knocks] T: Hey, Lil' C- GM: The Blacksmith finally reaches you, GM: he's a few steps behind. Bs: Look at the time, he must've been sleeping for a long time, oh, God... How many emergencies, you keep getting into trouble! But what is that... What happened? What did you fight with? What creature was that?
T: Lil C, try to turn on the cellphone and try to show him quickly, I'll keep knocking, I'm not letting him sleep. Rakin: I keep knocking [fast knocks] nonstop. Calango: I turn my phone on again. GM: You turn the phone on, it has 4% of battery now and you have it in hands like this. Calango: I open the photos of the monster and show it to the Blacksmith like this. Ce: It was this, this was in the forest, this that was killing the cows, we just took care of it and Holy Cradle went mad. GM:
The Blacksmith takes the phone, it seems small and: Bs: Where did you find- This looks- This is a person. (Ce: You know it?...) Ce: ...It resembles a lot one! At least it looked like a person, Ce: it was very feral and very...Aggressive (Bs: Did you kill it?) Ce: I think so. Bs: Yeah... I don't know how to explain, I've never seen it before... But why did you kill it? GM: He hands you the phone. Calango: OK, I take it. (Rakin: I'm still knocking.) GM: You hear: (Ce: We were protecting...) Doctor: Calm down, calm down... Huh?
What happened? This again, Blacksmith? Bs: No clue! I'm trying to understand! Haven't you heard Holy Cradle? Dr: I did, a bit scary but I went back to sleep. What else could I do? Bs: I don't know either, Doctor! T: Please, get us some green crystals to help people, Liz and Joui are very hurt, A little cow is dying as well. Green crystals, for the love of God! GM: Then the Doctor: Dr: Wait... What? Green crystals? But for who? You are hurt, you... How many do you need? For who? Dr: How big? T: Can't you just
come with us? Dr: Oh, my God... I can, but why... Alright! What kind of wounds do you want me to treat? T: Serious wounds. Ce: Yeah, there are two people very hurt Ce: and also a dying cow, we'd like to save the cow as well. Dr: [confused noises] Dr: Where were the wounds? GM: He is like, still waking up. Ce: In the farm. (T: In the clavicle...) T: ...Ah, the place or the... [laugh] T: On the body or the place? (Dr: On the body,obviously!) Dr: Where I need to treat the wounds! Ce: Tell him, Thiago.
T: There was a serious one in the clavicle, there was one in a thigh as well, T: I don't recall the rest but there's more. (Ce: The cow's head,...) T: ...The cow's was in the head. Dr: Oh, a wound in the head... Did it damage its skull? T: I don't know for sure. (Ce: I don't know...) T: ...Probably it did. Ce: Probably, we haven't seen it properly. Dr: If it damaged the skull we'll have to spend a good while in surgery to mend it... OK, I'll... Give me a second. GM: And he enters his house,
you see him going towards where he leaves his crystals. Bs: Huh... Did you kill this… This person? Ce: That wasn't our plan, Blacksmith, it's just that... Well, we were basically protecting ourselves, it came, hit me with a rock right here. Calango: Then I point to my wound dripping blood. Ce: It hit me with a rock and then I... We just protected ourselves, it tried to attack Liz as well. GM: Do you really believe in what you're saying? Calango: I believe we were protecting ourselves. GM: Fine, OK. The Blacksmith: Bs: Ah, OK... I can't imagine, I've
never seen Anything like this, how would someone live outside of Holy Cradle, looking like a lusidius, did it have clothing? Something that could identify it? T: It was completely naked. Bs: It was naked? Ce: Yes, it seemed wild, it didn't seem like a person Ce: like everyone else. (Bs: Do you think they're...) Bs: ...Responsible for Helper's murder? Ce: Most likely, it lived in a hollow tree full of the symbols, but we don't know... T: I don't think so, I don't think so. I don't think the creature killed the Helper. Bs: Why not? T: That creature
didn't seem to have enough reasoning T: to take a knife and cut the Helper's throat. Ce: You have a point, it seemed way too feral for that. T: It was a beast, that thing was not human, or if it was, it stopped being one a long time ago. Bs: I understand. It's not safe to talk about it. In the morning, in the tavern we can talk and figure out what's going on. Maybe that'll help in the investigation to find out who killed the Helper. We also must... Must talk about the... Bs: The cave. Exactly. (Ce:
The card.) GM: Then, when you say that, the Doctor leaves his house carrying a bowl with many crystals. Dr: I didn't want to have to bring these, but let's go before they lose power, I hate bringing this many crystals out. GM: And he starts to leave with a huge bowl with a lot of crystals, a bowl like, this big, it's not too big. T: Hey Blacksmith, can you help us, please? To escort the Doctor there. Bs: I think it's hard for there to be more danger for now. T: You're quite strong, Look at you. Help
us here. Bs: If you'd like I can go with you. T: Thank you, Mr. Blacksmith. Bs: But I... (Ce: That's with you.) Calango: I stay in front of the Doctor, ready to walk with my sling in my hands. GM: OK, wait a bit. Let me just fix the Doctor here to stay under the mist... OK, it's fixed, You then start going back and you return walking towards the path kind of running and there is no issue, You cross Holy Cradle and arrive again at the cow, who is alone, suffering, bleeding like this “muuuuuh”, and everyone
who's here at the barn sees them arriving. J: Arthur, I think they'll already treat Jennifer. Don't you want to go there? GM: Ah, sorry! I am Arthur! Man. (Luba: Master, you're Arthur) A: Yes, yes, yes, I'll go, I'll go, I'll go. GM: And he starts running like this. A: Guys! Ah, Doctor! Please, use your crystal do something with Jennifer, she's so hurt... Actually! Joui first, Joui first. GM: And he points at Joui who is hurt. Luba: I walked behind Arthur too and said: J: No, no. Jennifer first, Jennifer first, Arthur. A: You are all fucked
up, Joui! J: I'm not being cured before Jennifer, J: I see how much you care for her. (T: Just do it.) Ce: Just go, anyone. (A: I'm sorry, guys, I'm so damn nervous.) GM: The Doctor, he comes running towards the cow, not running, he walks quickly. Dr: Yeah, I don't... We have a very serious issue here. This here, she has a very deep wound in her skull, I can't solve it now, wait a bit... GM: He grabs, he takes the bowl like this, he puts pliers inside, takes a piece of crystal, Then he opened the
cow's mouth, puts the crystal there then closes it, the cow instantly goes unconscious. Dr: This will stabilize her, let me take care of you that it'll be easier to do. GM: He turns to you and starts to treat you. Dr: Who must I treat? T: The two right there, Doctor. Ce: Inside the barn. Calango: I move towards the barn. Luba: I'm at the door in here, standing. J: Doctor, please... Help my senpai, she's inside. Dr: Look at your situation, kiddo! You're bleeding so much! Come closer! GM: And he opens it, already putting the pliers inside,
takes a crystal, and he: Dr: Stay still, sit here. Can someone hand me some fabric, please? With any kind of liquid in it. Rakin: I can look for it, Rakin: Can I roll a Finding test? Dr: Nevermind. GM: He opens his coat. Dr: There is some in here. GM: He grabs some fabric, GM: puts it over Joui's wound, then he takes the crystal and starts to Grind the crystal over the fabric, making many green crystal crumbles, he takes it with agility and turns the fabric with the crumbs and puts it over your wound that is
quite deep. GM: He says: Doctor: Hold it there, it'll hurt a bit... Dr: ...It'll take a while to heal it like that. GM: Joui, I want you to heal your HP with a D8. Luba: A D8? Oh my God, it's now. Faith in me. Calango: 8, 8. Rakin: 8. Luba: ...1. [laughs] GM: I'll let you roll the D8 with advantage because was the Doctor who's healed you, go on. It can't be possible, dude. Rakin: Another 1. (Luba: 8!) GM: Okay, Okay. (Calango: Yeah!!) Rakin: Yeah! GM: You feel that these crumbs of green crystal are spreading
around your wound, they're not moving but it's already spread around the wound, it looks like the Doctor has a lot of ability at that, and it goes filling, where one piece touches it fills the wound And the crystal dots starts connecting with each other, closing it. Dr: Who's the next one? I can only heal twice now. T: You can heal Liz, please. Ce: Liz is inside the barn. J: Thanks, Doctor. Dr: Just hold it, calm down. (Luba: Joui gets up, he's feeling more willing.) Dr: How do yall keep getting into so much trouble? God, I've
never seen any ignari cause that much trouble. Bs: I know, I know, Doctor… GM: He comes in. (Ce: But you were the ones who asked...) GM: He lowers himself, he doesn't even say anything, he moves towards Liz. Dr: Where is the wound, girl? L: There are many, actually... On my thigh- Gabi: Then I pull my clothing. (Dr: Which is the worst of them?) Gabi: I raise my hair like this and there's a huge cut from that rock that made me lose 6 HP on the head, that is hurting a lot. Doctor: Okay, just don't move,
don't move. GM: He takes a splint that looks like a blade and touches it in your wound and goes cutting it but where it cuts it starts closing and searing, roll a D6 to heal for me. GM: ...No fucking way. Gabi: I also got a 1. GM: Roll once more with the advantage. Gabi: I swear, I swear I also rolled a 1. GM: Roll once more with advantage. (Luba: What's this session?) Gabi: Now I got a 5. (GM: Okay, you heal 5 HP.) GM: He says: Doctor: The rest of the wounds, let me give them
a look. Gabi: I stretch my leg like this so he can see my thigh. L: Here. Dr: Wait a bit. GM: He pulls a scalpel, he tears part of your pants and opens it like this, and you see a big purple bruise on your thigh, he: Dr: Hm, wait a minute. GM: He takes a small splint of the crystal that was still shining a bit, He breaks the rest that was grey and puts it on your thigh, and you heal... 2 HP. And the bruise closes a bit, not completely but it's better now, it's less
ugly and doesn't hurt as much anymore. Dr: That's what I can do for you. Dr: Hm... And you there! You're also quite hurt, aren't you? GM: He points at Cesar. Ce: Yeah... GM: You've got a lot of bruises, you took in a beating, you got punches all over you, you have a black eye. Ce: I'm feeling a lot of pain in here, look. Calango: I tie up my hair like this, and in my nape, it's almost black, I got like seven punches on my nape this fight. GM: He walks to you. (Doctor: Wow, but the
thing is...) Dr: ...Awful in here, ain't it? Wait a bit. GM: He grabs yet another smaller crystal, touches it and presses it on the back of the neck like this, right in the middle, you feel pain at first but then it eases up and the bruise gets smaller. You heal a D6 of HP with advantage. Calango: A D6... Calango: I got 6. (GM: So you heal 6HP...) ...And your bruise starts closing itself and a part of your face starts to close as well your blood circulation gets a little better, you don't look as fucked up
as before. Dr: That's all I can do, and now... Blacksmith! Since you're already here, we need to take this cow. I'll need strength to take this cow and treat her I think we can still do something but it'll most likely take the entire day to take good care of her. GM: Then Arthur: A: I'll help, I can help, Blacksmith!I really want Jennifer to be well. GM: The Blacksmith looks at the cow like this. Bs: Let's go then... GM: He comes and pulls and lifts half of the cow on his own, and Arthur will also use
strength to help on the other side... You see that the Blacksmith alone is doing 80% of the strength needed to lift this cow, Arthur alone would never lift her on his own. Luba: Joui looks and goes behind Arthur as well. (GM: Arthur succeeds) Rakin: I'll go help the little cow as well. J: I'll help, Arthur. (Calango: Everyone will take Jennifer, let's go! Just kidding.) GM: No fucking way! I went to do the strength... Dude, I rolled the Blacksmith's strength test and I got yet another 1, a 001, I'm getting way too many 1s in a
row, man. Luba: Burn down these dice. GM: The Blacksmith almost puts the cow on his back to carry her... he just can't because she's much bigger than he is, GM: but he manages to lift her like this. Bs: Leggo, quick. GM: And he starts to take the cow along with Arthur, who is like: A: Calm down, Jennifer… GM: They're reversed actually... GM: The Blacksmith is behind the cow and Arthur goes in front. (Luba: Joui helps.) Rakin: I want to help here too, holding her paw. GM: You can help, you don't even need to roll any
strength test because the Blacksmith is taking her on his own and Arthur is carrying her in his back like this. A: Let's go, Jennifer, everything will be alright! GM: He goes trying to pet her but she is too heavy in his back, and they take her, you all go towards the Doctor's house, you can go talking in the way, but you're walking really slowly and the Blacksmith is like: Bs: You gotta... Gotta explain it properly tomorrow... About what happened in the forest... Ce: Alright. J: Mr. Blacksmith, before that I... I have just one question. Bs:
Which is...? J: About that creature we saw, I'm not sure if Cesar and Thiago told you about what we found, that it seemed like a lusidius but it was feral. Bs: I saw, I saw the photo, I didn't understand it either. GM: Then the Doctor: Dr: What? A feral lusidius? What are you talking about? Bs: I don't know, Doctor, they have a photo in their phone that seems to be a person, but it's no resident of Holy Cradle that I know. Dr: What do you mean? J: The thing is that when we attacked it, I
felt like... I felt like Holy Cradle was truly furious at us, And many creatures attacked us, that's why we've gotten so hurt. Dr: Actually we all felt that. Bs: That's what I said, I've never seen Holy Cradle like this, it was as if it was screaming. GM: You finally arrive beside the house, the cow won't get in, the Doctor looks at the cow. Dr: I will... Let her close to the door so that I will treat her during the night and tomorrow I'll be able to make the surgery, I won't be able to do so
in the middle of the night. I'll probably need the help Of one of you. GM: Then Arthur: A: Me, me, Doctor! I want to help... A: I'm feeling very guilty about what happened to Jennifer. Dr: Alright, alright, you'll have to keep me company tomorrow during the morning. The surgery is quite complex, we'll need the Nurse's help as well. A: Yes, Doctor, I'll do whatever is needed for Jennifer's well-being. Dr: Ah, and you... Stop getting yourselves in trouble, please! GM: And he goes inside like this, a little tired GM: holding the jar. (J: Thank you, Mr.
Doctor.) GM: The Blacksmith, he looks at you all: Bs: You there, who'll help with the cow, it’s better for you to stay close to the Doctor... and the rest of you, go back to the hotel fast. Before Holy Cradle gets even more furious. L: Mr. Blacksmith... Bs: What? L: Is there no other place for us to sleep rather than the hotel? Bs: The hotel is the safest place for you to sleep on, the Hotelier is the one responsible for taking care of ignarous specifically for the Holy Cradle not to... Well, it's infuriated right now, but
it remains the safest place to be in. Believe me. Luba: Joui gets closer to Liz and says that: J: Liz, that thing that attacked us it's already dead. I think it's safe for us to sleep there. Bs: I'm not sure what you're talking about, you can sleep wherever you want to, But... The Hotelier's job is to keep all ignari safe, if you got attacked by something during the night, the Hotelier certainly had to deal with something much worse. GM: He starts to walk away, tired. Bs: We will talk at the tavern tomorrow. About this lusidius
that you found. Or whatever it was. GM: He starts to walk away. (J: Thank you, Mr. Blacksmith.) GM: You see his silhouette disappearing in the middle of the mist as he walks. The Doctor returns from inside the house. Dr: You right here, listen, let me explain exactly how these crystals work and what we will have to do during the night, we'll have to keep her stable and keep feeding her with crystals so that her organism doesn't stop working completely until tomorrow, so we can manage to do her surgery, that will last all day. A: Ah,
alright, Mr. Doctor. GM: And he starts explaining a lot of medical details Of what they'll have to do with her skull and how to position the crystals, he starts to point out the places like this. A: Well, guys, good night, I guess, right? You'll go to the hotel now. J: Yeah we will go, Arthur. T: Stay well, Arthur. Take care, dude. A: Good night. (Luba: I'll hug him) GM: You walk towards him, you see that he has some tears in his eyes and is shaking a bit. A: Thanks, Joui… Luba: I hug him and say:
J: Everything will work out, Arthur, don't worry. You're very brave. A: Thank you, you- (Gabi: Liz just waves from far away.) A: Thank you, you too. J: Liz? J:Thank you, Arthur. Liz, won't you hug Arthur? L: Nah, it's cool here, bye, Arthur! A: Bye, guys! GM: And he goes back to paying attention to the Doctor, he's clearly very concerned about the cow, he stays all the time eyeing her like this, quite worried. Rakin: Where did that wolf wound my face, exactly? Just for me to understand it. GM: It was just two bites that hit you
in the interior and superior part of your head, GM: it's bleeding a bit yet. (Rakin: Is it bleeding yet? Can I see normally?) GM: It's bleeding a bit but you're not that wounded, it wasn't a serious injury. Rakin: Cool, what a humble little wolf. Ce: Okay, guys, we're going back there, then? T: Guys, I think we all should sleep in the same room, especially after what happened to us on that first night. L: I approve of Thiago's idea. Ce: I think after all we went through that won't be an issue. Let's get going. GM: You
all walk through, you're crossing Holy Cradle, you walk towards the entire town without any unfortunate meeting and you arrive at the hotel one more time. You go inside the hotel and see that the Hotelier isn't on the balcony, But the door to his room is open. T: Hey, Mr. Hotelier! J: Wait, Thiago-sensei. (T: Hey.) J: Wait, Thiago-sensei, I have something on- (GM: Wow, wait.) J: I kept what the Blacksmith told us in my head, about if we got attacked at night then it means that he had to deal with something worse, what did the Blacksmith
meant by that? I think his life could be in danger. I don't know, I have a bad feeling about this. GM: You arrive, the Hotelier, he leaves from his room when you call them like this. Ho: Good night? What happened that you guys didn't show up earlier? T: Ah, my man, confusion, confusion and confusion. Ce: We had to deal with some tough stuff. Ho: Yeah, I can see you still are covered in blood... Ho: Well,do you still have the keys to your rooms? I'll stay here, do you remember the rules? T: I remember, but hey,
Mr. Hotelier, where can I wash my face, my body? It's that, dude, we're all dirty with blood, we're all fucked up, we need to at least wash our faces, man. Ho: You... You must take water in the tavern tomorrow, I thought you knew that already. There's some water stored still, you could wash yourselves or clean up with it, if you'd like. T: Wow, please, my dear. Ho: Okay, wait a bit, wait a bit. (J: I would accept a bucket.) Ho: Okay, I'll get it, stay there. GM: He gets into his room... you all can hear
some noise of boxes falling, then you hear [Ugh] He brings a big bucket like this, very heavy. Ho: It's in here. See, you can share this water between y'all, I don't think there's any issue with it. T: Let Liz go first because we're three men and a lady, for the love of God, right? Ho: Y'all deal with you think in there, I will... Sorry, I was sleeping, I know, it's irresponsible on my part since I'm the Hotelier. ah... Well, y'all recall the rules, don't ya? Don't open the door if y'all hear... You know. Ce: Will
it keep... Okay. Fine. Alright, yeah, guys, I think we won't be able to sleep in the same... Calango: I look at the Hotelier. Ce: We have to keep following the rules even after after this incident we had gone through? Ho: Of course. They are the hotel's rules, what do you mean? Ce: What do you mean, last time could have been our end, you know? Ho: Well... Ce: You remember what happened. Calango: And I point at the painting... ...That has been punched on the wall. Hotelier: Yeah, but that was a very specific case... I'm still quite
confused as well, I must be honest, but don't worry, this is my job, I grew up learning how to deal with The Holy Cradle not wanting any ignari, don't worry, it's better for y'all if you let me do my job properly. But if y'all want to take a risk it’s up to you. Ce: If that happens again, instead of giving another punch on the paintings, you could help us deal with that incident that happened in the dream and all? Will you be there to help? Ho: Honestly, I was not expecting that dream thing to happen…
Of course, of course, don't worry, I don't think it'll happen again, especially because I don't think y'all have angered Holy Cradle even more, right? GM: He gives a short laugh like this. T: Haha. (Ce: Heh...) L: Yeah, hehe, [whispering] Big T... Ce: Of course not, hehehe. (T: [whispering] What?) L: [whispering] I'll sleep in your room tonight. T: [whispering] Fine, call everyone else. L: [whispering] Joui. T:[whispering] Joui. J: Hi. L: [whispering]To Thiago's room. J: [whispering] We need to tell the Hotelier the truth. Maybe not all of it, but we need to tell him that Holy Cradle
is still mad at us. T: [whispering] I believe he noticed that already... L: [whispering] He'll find it out... Calango: I look at the Hotelier, is he listening ? GM: He's spacing around, the Hotelier always has this distant look like this, kinda too far, he's just like... You can't tell if he is drunk, if he's sleepy, if he's high. Calango: He smoked weedy weed. [laughs] Gm: He's just... J: Guys, if we at least tell him the truth, at least he won't lower his guard. Mr. Hotelier! Ho: Huh? (Luba: I ignore Cesar.) Ho: What was it? J:
Mr. Hotelier. Ho: Uh-huh. J: We have motives to believe that Holy Cradle is still very furious at us. What would you recommend us? Ho: That noise from earlier, that wasn't y'all, was it? Ho: It was... J: And if it was? Ho: I would recommend for y'all to lock the doors well, leave it to me. GM: He goes in like this, he enters his room, you see him messing around some boxes, you hear some metallic noises [trim trilim] He returns with a chain around his arm and two daggers that he puts on his belt. Ho: Guess
I'll have a long night, but don't worry, I'll take care of whatever problem that happens. J: Do you need help? Ho: This is my job, don't worry. You're here to rest, I wouldn't ask anything from you, you can rest and leave it to me that I've been trained all my life for this. L: Mr. Hotelier. Ho: Huh? (L: I'm sorry to say this but...) L: I'm not sure if All your training will be enough because we've done terrible things today. Hotelier: What have you done? (T: With terrible she meant we did only what was necessary...)
T: Alright, Mr. Hotelier? Only what was necessary, good stuff. T: Totally necessary, Okay? (Ce: Totally necessary!) T: The thing attacked us first we haven't done anything terrible, okay, Mr. Hotelier? Relax, she just rambled without any thought, Okay? Liz, let's sleep, everyone, we're all tired! Ho: You seem... Don't worry, if I need any help you'll hear me screaming, which won't happen but it's alright. Good night, the keys are still with you, right? Onto that, actually! Who of you messed around with my stuff?! T: Huh, what do you mean? (Ce: No one?) T: No one messed around
with your stuff, nope. L: Well, lemme get the bucket in here and wash me up. Ho: I said that the hotel was home to y'all but I referred to the rooms. I got in my hotel the door wide open, my keys that were all properly organized I had to recheck which key was to which room, It was all messy! You could just ask me that I would allow you in my room Ho: if you'd like to see what's in it. Ce: Daaamn. Luba: At the time Joui hears that... Luba: At the time Joui hears that
he turns and glares at Cesar with a very serious face. Ce: You know what happened, Mr. Hotelier, it was at that moment you were back in the tavern, I napped and sometimes I'm a bit of a sleepwalker and I must have risen up without seeing and went to drink some water and I did that, I'm sorry, can you forgive me? I won't do it again. T: Yes, then I went to help him since he was sleepwalking and I tripped in the dark and slammed myself into the door, and I broke it all... Hot: I get
it. I get it. Next time you come talk to me, also you don't need to lie in Holy Cradle. I don't know if you were told about it but we do not lie, we don't do anything in Holy Cradle, you are all very welcome in here, the hotel is your house and if you want to get in my room you just need to ask! You can come in, it's a bit of a mess, my stuff is in there, I try to put it in order, I'm not as good at it but I try my best.
And at night if you hear... the rules, do you want me to repeat them? Ce: No, we're good. At that time that... It's kind of a blur for me, you know, of what happened, but when I got into your room I felt a strong smell of bushes. Something like nature, you know. Ho: Yeah, Holy Cradle is a place full of trees, right? Ho: It's a very vivid place. (Ce: Uh-huh.) Hotelier: It has a very diverse flora. Ce: Uh-huh, no. Okay, Okay. Calango: I turn and go to my room like this. L: Hey, Lil C. Ce:
Sup. (Rakin: I take the bowl.) L: Won't you make use of this bucket in here, huh? Ce: Yeah... Calango: I give myself a quick smell, I'm smelling really bad, I suppose. GM: Uh-hum. Calango: Do all residents of Holy Cradle smell as well? GM: A bit, yes, you've never gotten close enough of anyone to smell them but they don't seem clean, not that clean, in a showering everyday way, no. It's a place with a quite medieval aspect and the people are the same. Ce: Okay, I'll give myself a quick clean but I don't think it'll be
enough for everyone. L: I would've suggested you clean yourselves first you and Thiago since you're the cleanest and Joui and I who are the dirtiest would Stay behind. GM: Okay, I'll leave then this organization about who takes a shower first and who'll rest and where to after the break, now we'll go to the break and in about 5 minutes we will come back with the story of The Secret in the Forest. Calango: Nice. (Luba: Pissy piss.) GM: [Laughs] Go, go. GM: Be right back. [Break] GM: And we're back! We're back from the break, It's all
OK this time, with no technical problems of... ..equipment destruction. Everyone here? Gabi: Sup! Calango: Good? (GM: OK.) Luba: Sup. GM: We stopped... You were in the hotel, talking about who'd shower, and how will the order be? You will stay... We can skip that, you all shower in different orders, Liz goes first and then you set up the rest. You will all stay in the same room or how will you settle that? Rakin: Same room. (Luba: I'll be alone.) GM: OK. Rakin: Let's do it in-game then. GM: Yes, you can talk in-game, just to skip the
part very, very... Calango: Can we talk away from... Calango: Let's say he isn’t near. (GM: You can.) GM: OK, you went towards the hall then, towards the rooms. You can talk. J: Guys, I'll follow the rules and... I think I should be alone. T: Joui, it doesn’t make sense, man. You saw what happened last time. Ce: Yes, but... The Hotelier said it was something he didn't expect, you know? I don't know. T: We followed the rules and we got fucked, why would we do that if it got us fucked? J: Thiago-sensei, mind the language... T:
...We got screwed. L: But Joui, you even... It's fine because you won against that parasite, but it could parasite others from here, it was a guilt parasite, wasn't it? Luba: Joui looks down and says: J: Exactly. No more blaming ourselves, And it only got strong against... ...against us because we, apparently, have a lot of guilt filling our hearts, and I think it's our time to be brave. Ce: I may not get rid of it. (L: Not everyone's that brave.) Calango: I'm crestfallen. J: I just would rather... trust the Blacksmith, if this is the safest place
to be in, we should follow the rules. I'm afraid something worse could happen If we don't do this. Something we won't be prepared for. T: If we're together, we'll be ready. The problem is if we're separated. What can we do if the three of us are together and you scream at night? I won't feel well with you not being protected with us. L: I agree with Thiago. GM: The Hotelier, he's in the counter like this, and he: Hotelier: Ah... Sorry, I know I don't have much to do with this, but I actually do. I'll explain
how it works and why you're supposed to be apart: the Holy Cradle, it doesn't want you around as ignari, especially since you've annoyed it the Blacksmith said. If you stay together, it'll attack you... together, and the power could be much stronger Than if you're in separate rooms. Ce: So it'll attack us either way? Ho: Kind of, it'll try. If you follow the rules, you won't have.... ...won't have any issues. T: You could've said it, T: right? (Ho: If you're...) Ho: ...together, I don't even know what could happen if four people stay too long in the
same room together. J: Where? Arthur stayed... We're four people! J: We must separate! (Ho: Do whatever!) I can't order you around, I'm not your father, Ho: It'll be easier for my job. (Luba: Joui doens't wait...) Ho: I don't wanna deal with whatever Holy Cradle might do this time, Ho: Do whatever.\ GM: He fixes his chains. Ho: But don't worry... ...I am prepared, it seems that it will be intense. GM: He leaves. Luba: Door's closed, I didn't even wait. Joui enters his room, closes the door, and locks. Ce: Yeah, I... I'll go to my room. Ce:
If... T: We won't clean ourselves? Hey, Joui! Rakin: I knock. T: Are you showering? L: I did, I'm all clean. (Rakin: We did?) GM: Yeah, you already did. T: Ah, it's true, I’m already smelling good. Ce: Good? J: Guys! Calango: I sniff. Ce: We smell bad, Big T, but nothing we can do. It's the best we can get. T: I smell of wolf's barf. Ce: There's no soapy soap in here. T: Or shampooy shampoo. Ce: Fuck. T: Tough. J: What are you saying? I can't hear it. T: It's all good. (Ce: Nothing.) T: Go sleep,
Joui. If you need anything hit the wall thrice as hard as you can. J: Ah… I'm happy you said thrice, Thiago-sensei. T: No, almost, huh. Ce: OK guys, good night. If I hear something coming from outside, I will get out, regardless if it's a dream or not, because... ....won't hurt to try. If it's a real danger.... how would I know? L: But... L: Lil C... Ce: Huh? Gabi: I stop him. L: Lil C, don't leave this time. You sleep further from the rest, if something happens to you it'll be hard for us to... reach you
in time. Stay in your room, it's better. Ce: No, yes, I will follow the rules, but in the dream... J: Stay in the room! Luba: I'm listening. Ce: I'll stay, it's just that... If you remember, Arthur, In his dream, he didn't leave the room and that happened. (J: What?! ) Ce: Regardless... Ce: Nothing! (Ce: OK, I'll stay, ) L: OK, fine, Lil C. Ce: I'll stay as much as I can. L: OK. J: Do it! Ce: Good night, guys. J: Good night! Ce: Good night, Joui! (J: What?!) GM: You all... GM: You all go to
your respective rooms then, your things are there. Gabi: I wait everyone, because I want to talk to the Hotelier. GM: Do they mute? T: Good night then. GM: Yes. (T: See ya, people!) Gabi: No. GM: Mute. Gabi: No need. Calango: Mute? GM: I'll mute you all. Luba: “huh, I'll mute you all” GM: You get closer and the Hotelier is preparing things, you see that he takes a bottle with something green inside, he puts it in his clothes. And he: Ho: Uh, Uh, hi? Need something? L: Sorry, Mr. Hotelier, but... I don't know if I'll be
able to sleep tonight And I'd like to offer my help to you if needed. Ho: I think you... I'm sorry, don't take it in a harsh way, but I think you'll only get in my way. If you aren't inside a room, Holy Cradle will be attacking freely. Not that it will, I don't think that... Let me explain better. Here we are safe, but Holy Cradle it wants... It is mad, from what I know. It won't take it easy. If you're on the outside, you will... ...see things you don't want to, I'm used to them, I'll
be fine. If you stay outside it'll be worst for you all, believe me. I'll do fine. You're clearly tired, face is full of blood... In fact, no! You took it off but it's still red, see? On your face, here. Below your eye, and here... Oh no! That's your little mole, sorry. I thought it was... Sorry for being insensitive. L: Uh... No, it's fine. Gabi: I am visibly uncomfortable. L: Well, anyway, I believe I'll stay up most part of the night after what happened. Do you have... some... I don't know, a code, a word that you
shout, something... ...that could simply... if you get in danger, if you need anything? Ho: [Loud scream] Usually, it's what I do. L: It's okay, it's a good code, I think... ...I 'll look out for that. Ho: Good night. Ho: I cleaned the room, (L: Night.) Ho: it's clean now I removed dust, I remembered. Good night, good night. L: Just one more little question, sorry. You said here we are.... like, we're protected behind closed doors, right? I was inside the barn before and we... When we were outside, There were shadows attacking, (Ho: Indeed. ) L: when
we stepped inside, L: the mist stopped attacking us instantly. But why are we attacked inside the hotel? Ho: You're not attacked in here, you're attracted inside the hotel. In the other houses the same thing would happen, if you were in a room you'd hear knocking on your door, the thing is that, here, I deal with it. L: Oh. That makes sense. So, all the residents of Holy Cradle hear those sounds? Not just us? Ho: They aren't ignari. You all hear because it only happens to you. When you become lusidii, after the Trial, or even after
staying a long time here, it stops happening. Don't worry, it'll stop. After a while It's normal to be startled. It's why I'm here. L: Oh, okay, that's good to know. Thank you for the information. (L: Night.) Ho: I'm here for that. Ho: Good night, sleep well. L: Likewise. (Ho: If you are able.) L: I mean, if you do end up sleeping, (Ho: I might not.) L: Night. Ho: Good night. Gabi: OK, I go to then. GM: The Hotelier stays... Calango: If he unmutes... Oh, hi! GM: What's that? What's going on? Calango: I was saying: If
he unmutes I'll take it up the ass, if he unmutes I'll take it up the ass. GM: You then, all of you... You hear like... Joui, Joui, you saw that Liz walked in front of your hall, You hear a shout and then she walks past the corridor and goes to her room. Luba: Wait, a shout?! GM: The Hotelier. (Rakin: We all hear?) Luba: I get out. GM: No, only Joui did. J: Ah! What?! Ho: Huh? Ah, sorry, (J: I heard a shout,) Ho: Need anything? J: Mr. Hotelier. Ho: A shout... Ah! Wow, sorry, I was
just explaining some things. J: By shouting? Ho: She asked for... ...us to match up a shout... ...just in case I was in danger. So I did this: [Shouts] J:[Shouts] (J: How was that?) Ho: See? Ho: It works, I'd come to help you, see? J: Ah, okay. Thank you! Ho: No problem, good night! Did you see that I cleaned the... GM: He's sad that you just left, he was happy. J: Ah, what was that? Ho: No notices... Huh?! Did you see there's no dust? No dust! I adjusted the sheets very well, it looks neat. Ho: Took
all day. (J: I noticed.) Ho: Right? Damn cool. J: Thank you for your work, Mr. Hotelier. Ho: Fuck yeah, good night, sorry, I'm kinda... J: Language. Luba: I lock. (Calango: I also lock the door.) GM: OK. You... GM: You all lock the door, and... you all sleep? Or does Joui want to meditate? Luba: Joui, he will meditate, he will think about how lucky he is for having friends who worry about him. GM: Joui starts thinking about that, but flashes of that creature, dead, suffering, in front of him, come to his mind And you lose... Just
kidding! you just... GM: ...can't focus. (Luba: He thinks of that too.) GM: You can't have a night very... None of you have a clear conscience, (Calango: Damn...) GM: after what happened. Calango:... I looked at my mom's photo, of my dad, of my friends, (GM: Sadly, it...) Calango: that I have? GM: ....was the worst day for your psychology, All of you need some therapy. (Rakin: Can I...) GM: You manage to... GM: Huh? Rakin: Can I sleep with my shield over me? GM: You can, (Rakin: Yay!) GM: yes, yes you can. GM: You all have a very
peaceful night's sleep, until... Calango: Aw... GM: During the night..... Luba: Yes! GM: You, Liz, and Thiago.... I'll mute Ra... Luba, and... Calango: If he mutes me I'll take it up the ass, Rakin and Gabi: [laugh] Rakin: Well... GM: You're sleeping... sleeping... and suddenly, during the night, You hear: [WOOOSH] passing by your door, as if it was a vacuum cleaner. in front of Thiago's door then it goes towards Liz's door, and then it goes on. Rakin: I prepare and grab my sword. Gabi: With my sickles, I get close to the wall and rest my ear. GM:
You hear even louder: [WOOOSH] [tapping sounds] [WOOOSH] [tapping sounds] That's all, it passes by, it seems to go to the stairs. Gabi: The taps are like steps? GM: It's like steps. Rakin: Fast? GM: Yes, but only she heard it. Gabi: Ah, okay. I just sit in my bed a bit and keep my guard up. GM: OK, you sit in your bed, do you want to try to sleep, or not? Gabi: I'll be alert for a bit. GM: OK. You... Some seconds go by, you hear passing in front of your door: [TUM TUM TUM TUM TUM]
as if someone was running, and it goes in front of Thiago's and Liz's doors. Rakin: I'm chill. Rakin: I'm just alert. GM: At that, GM: Cesar. Calango: Sup. GM: Where are you... In this room? You hear, passing by your door: [WOOOSH] ([tapping sounds]) [WOOOSH] Calango: Knocks? GM: No, they're steps on the hall. Calango: Ah. OK, I'll keep sleeping. GM: OK, you keep... You wake up and then you return to sleep, after some time, you hear: [steps] as if they were steps, and suddenly: [WOOOSH] It gets louder, it starts going to the other way, and the
steps go back. Calango: I follow the rules, I'll stay here. GM: OK, you go back to sleep after a few minutes. Liz, you... After the steps went up, you hear nothing. Gabi: I try to sleep then. GM: OK, and Thiago as well? Rakin: Uh-hum. GM: OK, you all... That goes by, it's a weird feeling that you have, but... it goes way and you Sleep again. And you then wake up, in the following day, with the sun shining brightly, Not the sun, the light entering brightly from outside... into the window... ...and you wake up well. Who
needed... Who still needs HP, roll a d3 of cure of resting. Gabi: Nice, my ribs will be all well now. Calango: Don't we recover sanity? (Gabi: 4.) GM: No. Gabi: Nice. Rakin: Five. Luba: Four too. Rakin: Almost full. (Luba: Two?) GM: It's a D3. M: Yeah, two, divide by two and round it up. GM: You have a good rest, (Rakin: The dice are better.) GM: you don't know how much sleep. Roll luck to see who wakes first. Gabi: Hm, my luck is so low... Rakin: I have 75 luck points. Gabi: I failed. Calango: I failed
as well. Luba: I... failed! (Rakin: Failed!) [loud background noise] GM: All of you wake up at the same t... GM and Gabi: Wow! GM: What the hell was that, dude? Rakin: It was my door, sorry. (Gabi: It's the vacuum cleaner in the hall.) GM: You all wake up at the same time. You wake up feeling well, all well-rested, your wounds are much better. You cleaned the blood on your faces, you're not wrecked anymore. You then leave your rooms and go towards the lobby, and you see the Hotelier covered in blood, With lots of already healed
scars and an empty little bottle over the counter. He's really tired Hotelier: Ah... Ah! (J: M-m-mr. Hotelier?) Ho: Good morning! Hotelier: Wowie! T: Holy shit, my dear... (Ce: What's that?) T: What happend to you? Hotelier: It was an intense night, I think... I didn't think it'd be this intense! You've done something... Holy Cradle got really pissed off, huh? What did you do? J: You didn't shout, that was our deal! Hotelier: I didn't need to. What was that? What did you do to make Holy Cradle this fucking angry? T: Do you know the cows that showed
up dead? Hotelier: Uh-hum. T: We killed the creature that was killing the cows. (Ho: I kind of, actually.) Hotelier: And what does the Holy Cradle have to do with that? Why did it get mad at that? T: I don't know either, buddy. What a situation, huh? Ho: I don't know, ay, you're the most confusing ignari I've ever met! Well, it's all settled. Did you rest well? (L: Actually yes, very well.) J: Very well, thank you, Mr. Hotelier. Ho: That's good. Ce: Much better than that other night. Ho: That's good. I'm going to... don't know how
long I slept as well. For some reason I didn't... Did you hear the bell? (J: Bell?) Ce: No. T: What bell? Ho: The morning bell, when the night ends. The Gatekeeper always rings the bell when we're supposed to wake up, but I... I think I just... I just slept through it, I was too tired. Well, I'm going to the tavern, anything you might need, tell me. GM: He gets up, kinda tired. Ho: I didn't sleep so well... Luba: Joui looks at Liz and says: J: The Gatekeeper. Calango: My face expression that says: "No..." L: Joui?
J: The Gatekeeper. (T: No, that's not possible.) L: What if... L: the theory that the Helper was a Wellspring was actually... (L: I don't want to...) J: I don't know. L: I don't want to be right. J: Neither do i L: Let's go. (Ce: Wait) J: let's go. (T: That's not possible) Ce: Wait, guys, guys! Ce: What if we talked to the Blacksmith first? Because if someone finds all of us in there and something has happened to the Gatekeeper and they spot us, We'll be hella suspicious. J: Or we do that and arrive too late.
L: I think we're already too late, Joui. J: It doesn't matter. (T: We need to know what happened,) T: We'll see. J: Liz-senpai, we must see if he's well. L: Well... Rakin: I'm already going. Calango: I'll follow you all then. GM: You all leave and go around Holy Cradle, And now, it’s daytime. Let me grab it... The day is very beautiful, Holy Cradle always has beautiful mornings. You don't know the time exactly because the sky is always bright. Let me grab the... Okay. Calango: Is there a sun? Can we see the sun? GM: You look
up and the sky is completely white. You can't see the sun. Calango: [Whimpers] GM: You see many people around Holy Cradle... There are fewer people than the other day you've woken up, much less actually. GM: Arthur isn't here. (Calango: Is Arthur here?) GM: No. But you see some people leaving their houses kinda confused, looking up and going towards the tavern. Gabi: Wait, people are looking up kinda confused? GM: Yeah, like, they went out, look up and keep walking... Some are kind of waking up like this, still quite sleepy, some are talking to one another. You
are seeing all of this in the distance, and they're all heading to the tavern. L: Guys, have you noticed people are all looking weird at the sky as if they weren't expecting it to be daytime? It might be because the bell didn't ring? J: I think... I think that what we've done was much more serious. T: We need to see if the Gatekeeper is okay because it makes no sense that the bell did not ring. L: I'm more favorable of us talking to the Blacksmith first. J: Liz-senpai, I can't, I can't... I can't let someone
else... ...get hurt. (Ce: Okay, what if...) J: If I still have a chance to save them. Ce: What if two people went to check on the Gatekeeper And two went to talk to the Blacksmith? T: We are not spliting again, Lil C. L: No, it's alright, it's daytime, Thiago. (J: We just talked to the Hotelier.) T: Ah, but... The night could come by suddenly! J: We just talked to the Hotelier, he... he is our alibi, no one will suspect us. (L: Fine then, go.) T: Ah, cool, I'll go with Joui, T: let's go. L: I'm
going with Joui as well. Ce: Eh... Luba: We'll go, Master. (Luba: I'll get a quick way here.) GM: You all go to the... Gabi: You pick. GM: It's uphill, it's uphill, it's quite the steep, you can get a shortcut if you want to, crossing the woods, you go up… Okay, you... Luba: Dude, going through here... Ce: Is there anyone walking nearby? J: Joui remembers the the hills he used to climb when he was a child... GM: I'm going to mute Luba so we can play... Everyone: [laugh] GM: You go across the woods, you walk by
some insects, you see some ladybugs (Calango: Wait) that have a rainbow on their backs and one lands on one of you. You see some beautiful birds flying, one long bird that looks like a snake flies from one tree and rests on the other and makes a weird noise that resembles a dog. And you, eventually, Arrive at the... He's not here, ok? Calango: Wait, wait, before we cross the woods, was there anyone walking by? Anyone nearby? GM: Roll a Finding test for me, please. Walking where? Calango: Right in this area, in here, someone I could call
like: "Yo, pss pss." GM: Ah, no, no. The Hotelier, you could try to shout, the Hotelier is more so in this area, let me add him... But no, you'd have to shout very loudly to call him. There's no one that near from you, no. Calango: Fine, no, okay then I'll just follow them. GM: He's like here. Okay. You keep going, You all go through the bushes, and you see this small ladder that goes towards the Gatekeeper's tower. Luba: I'm walking in front, J: as fastest as I can. (Gabi: I'm right behind...) Gabi: Yeah, I'm right
behind Joui. Calango: I have my sling in my hands. Luba: I knock on the door. GM: You arrive then, you knock on the door, you: [TUM TUM] and on the first slam the door It opens a bit: [NHEE] it was open. Luba: I look behind me. J: I have a bad feeling about this, Liz-senpai... L: Joui, can I... can I go first? J: No way. (T: Guys, we shouldn't...) T: ...We shouldn't get in right now, we must be here with the Blacksmith. I don't think we should be here or should we get inside. L: Joui,
I think it is too late. J: No. Luba: I get in. (L: Joui...) Luba: I get in, Master, I get in GM: You slam it open... (T: Joui!) GM: ...and you find yourself facing a small, circular room. The Gatekeeper's tower, from inside, looks a lot like a lighthouse but slightly wider, there's a bed under a A spiral staircase that obviously goes up the tower. Besides that bed, there's a small desk/dresser with some drawers, one of them is open. You see... That's it, actually, his bed is a bit messy, and I'll ask you all to roll
a Finding test. GM: You see, on the... (Gabi: Regular.) GM: ...desk/dresser, (Calango: I failed.) GM: lots of sheets of paper along with different pencils, brushes and paints. Rakin: I got an extreme. GM: You got an extreme? Luba: I got Regular. Rakin: I have 97 points, thank God. (Gabi: Regular as well.) GM: Okay. You then open, you get in and see this stair, there isn't... Okay, you... You got in, right, Thiago? To see it all? Or did you stay outside? Rakin: I had to get in, right? GM: Okay. You all get inside... Calango: I stayed outside.
(GM: and...) GM: ...you notice that there's something strange on the bed of the Gatekeeper, Thiago. GM: You look... (T: I get closer to give it a look) GM: ...under it, it seems to have something. GM: You look very carefully. GM: You lower your vision, and the first thing you see is blood. You, looking better, notice those are thrown clothing, all very bloody, and an empty bottle with some crumbs of crystal inside. Green crystals. T: Guys, we haven't found anything here, we should get out And call the Blacksmith to come here, before we touch any of
his things. L: What were you looking under that bed, Thiago? T: There's nothing, I think we need to just go talk to the Blacksmith and see if there's something around here, and then search more with him here. Gabi: I look at Thiago with a tilted head, cause he's a bit... And I give a little peak under the bed. GM: You see the Gatekeeper’s clothes Stained with blood, and a little bottle of glass, almost empty, but there’s still some remnants of green crystal inside it, almost fading. Rakin: I look at Liz and say: T: [whispering] Joui,
Liz, Joui... L: Let’s find the Blacksmith. GM: Joui, you see them looking under the bed and talking to each other. J: What are you trying to hide? J: I can’t do this... (L: I’m going to find the Blacksmith.) J: Liz-senpai, I can’t do this if you Continue to treat me like that. Why are you lying? What’s down there? Luba: Joui crouches down to see what’s under the bed. GM: You see exactly the same thing. Gabi: Ah, I was going to try to block him... L: Joui? I think the Gatekeeper is not as nice as we
thought he was. J: Let's go. Luba: Joui passes by them and walks to the door, very upset. L: Lil' C? (Ce: Sup?) GM: Do you guys leave the tower? (Ce: Everything is okay?) L: Lil’ C, is your phone still working? GM: You guys can see that in the superior part there’s another room. Just to make it clear, it goes up And there’s another room up there. Luba: Well, Joui didn’t notice that, he just keeps walking towards the door, and he plans to go find the Blacksmith. Calango: I was leaning on the wall here, (T: Guys...)
Calango: I didn’t even go inside. (GM: OK.) Ce: Joui, Is everything ok there? Gabi: I’m by the door, and I say: L: Lil’ C, is your phone still working? Calango: I grab my phone, but I don’t think it is. Is it? GM: Try turning it on, Try turning it on, and take a Luck test. If you get regular I’ll let you turn it on. Calango: I failed. GM: No battery left. Ce: No, it’s not, Liz. It’s out of juice. J: Why do you need a phone, Liz-senpai? L: Well, I don’t have any of my investigating
equipment here, but the first thing we do in a crime scene is to take photos and number... T: We can’t touch anything, guys. (L: ...the evidence.) T: They’re gonna think we implanted it, (L: No, we can’t touch.) we can’t even tell them that this happened They’re gonna think we did it. L: But what if the Gatekeeper is alive? T: We have to bring someone here, saying that we’re just looking for him. Gabi: I look up. L: If the Gatekeeper is alive… Thiago… He’s gonna try to clean up this scene. Ce: Yeah, I don’t know... (Rakin:
I go upstairs.) Ce: Did anything happen in there? J: There are some... (Rakin: I go upstairs.) J: There are blood-stained clothes under the bed. Rakin: While I go upstairs, I say: T: No, dude, we need to get outta here, Liz. (Ce: Oh, no...) Rakin: While I go upstairs, slowly. GM: Stealth? (L: Yeah! I...) L: ...think we need to get (Rakin: Stealth.) L: ...out of here too, Thiago. GM: Roll a Stealth test. T: We need to get outta here. GM: Stealth test, to see if they can hear you. Rakin: Oh, dude... Calango: Where’s Arthur at this
point, man? Rakin: Ouch… I failed by 2 points. GM: You can hear Thiago’s steps as he goes upstairs, the wooden steps crack [gneck gneck] Rakin: They aren't the problem. Rakin: I don’t want the people upstairs to hear me. (GM: Oh, OK!) GM: Okay, but they can hear you the steps cracking every time you step up. [gneck gneck gneck] L: Let’s go then, right, Thiago? Get lunch, yeah? Gabi: And I’m like “Go go go go!” Rakin: Since I’m making all this noise, Rakin: I run up and open the door. GM: Okay, you start to go up
fast, (J: I'm going to get the Blacksmith) you open that door and you see a room that seems like the top of a lighthouse, but there is no lamp in the middle, it’s just glass windows all around. You see an armchair that seems very comfortable, and right across, there’s a small desk with many papers sheets, Pencils and paints on top of it. It looks like... You see different animals drawn on the papers, a bird... bright-colored an insect, it seems like he liked drawing the various animals that he sees from above. From the top of the
tower, you can see all of Holy Cradle, it’s very similar to what We can see on this map, and you can see that the mist inside clearly has a spiral form, and you can also see in the opposite direction, far away... Roll a Finding test. Rakin: It’s my time to shine, man… I passed with regular. GM: You... Forcing your sight a little bit, you see what seems to be the avenue Where you left the car, and you see your blue car parked, very smal in the distance. And the tower is above all the trees. Rakin:
Oh good. T: Hey, guys! (Luba: Master, parallel, parallel.) GM: Yeah? Luba: Just a parallel, since I’m downstairs with Cesar. GM: Sure, go ahead. J: Cesar, I’ll go find the Blacksmith. You stay here with Liz and Thiago. Ce: Don’t you think it’s better if I go with you? J: No. Wait here. I’ll run, to get there faster. Ce: Alright, go there. Luba: Master, I’ll run to the Blacksmith’s house. GM: Okay. Which direction are you taking? Will go through the normal way or the way you guys took it earlier? Luba: I’ll take the way we took earlier,
because I think it’s gonna be faster. GM: Okay, it is indeed faster. Then you run and at this point, you’re pretty much here, while Thiago’s upstairs seeing all of those drawings. There are many pages, on top... these ones on top are drawings of animals, but there are many pages on the desk. Rakin: I wanna take a Finding test on these pages, just to see if any of them has that spiral. GM: Take a Finding test, please. Actually, you don’t even have to. There are many drawings on the desk, and also on the floor, But when
you start to go through those papers, it’s impossible not to see pages and pages and pages with the symbol only. It's only the simbol drawn again, and again, and again, and again. Perfectly drawn, every single time. Perfectly. T: Liz? T: Come here. (L: Big T?) Rakin: I yell: T: Come here! It’s urgent! L: Lil’ C. Ce: Yeah? L: Watch the door, and warn us if anyone approaches. Ce: Okay, okay, sure. Go there. Gabi: And I go upstairs to see Thiago. GM: You get there and you see exactly this scene, you see Thiago opening, like... You
see him holding lots of papers with the spiral on them, and more papers all around him, all covered in spirals. There are many drawings of the spiral and of animals... ...quite bizarre ones. Gabi: Do the drawings resemble those of the test subjects? GM: No. These drawings look more like sketches, As if he saw a different animal and decided to draw it. There are many pagers filled withof different animals, birds... ...mammals, insects... Gabi: They’re not bizarre animals, they’re just from Holy Cradle? GM: They’re the animals from Holy Cradle, yes, they’re the cute animals that reside here.
Some of them aren’t that cute. L: Big T? T: Dude. L: Big T, what’s the possibility? T: This seems too obvious to be him, man... No... It was too easy to find those clothes under the bed. I think someone took the Gatekeeper and did this to him. GM: It wasn’t easy, you had an attentive look, it was very deep under the bed. You, like... You got an extreme, you were very attentive. Rakin: So I’m just that good, huh? GM: It was easy for you, it was easy for you, so you think it was easy. L:
That was easy for you, huh, Big T? (Rakin: So I'll keep my previous line.) L: I only looked under the bed because you were there first, but… Wow, he didn’t really care about getting rid of the evidence, but I... If we take the logic of Holy Cradle, where no one lies to no one, There wouldn’t be a reason for anyone to come search the Gatekeeper's tower. L: So he didn’t have to worry about that. (T: That’s true.) T: But what if.... Where is he then? Like, why isn’t the Gatekeeper here anymore? L: Yeah. Joui, he
left, I don’t know where he went, but... T: Wait, what do you mean he left? L: He left running, I think that... GM: I’m gonna take this moment, I’m gonna take this moment To mute you guys now. Okay. Joui, you... You run towards the Blacksmith’s house. You get here and you see the Blacksmith getting out of the house. Bs: Uh... Oh, good morning! J: Mr. Blacksmith, J: did you hear the bell? (Bs: What’s going on?) Bs: No, in fact. I was on my way to go there and speak to the Gatekeeper. To talk about that.
J: I need you to come running with me. I just got back from the Gatekeeper’s tower... And we found... we found his clothes, stained with blood hidden under his bed, with a bottle that had remains of green crystals. I have enough reasons to believe that that naked creature we killed was the Gatekeeper transformed into something. Bs: What... No... That doesn’t... Wait, what? Bs: You guys killed the Gatekee... (J: I know it doesn’t make sense!) J: Just come with me! GM: When you say that, you see, running towards you: [huh, huh, huh] an old man... A
bit overweight old man dressed in green clothes, he has a mustache and is bald. A moment, let me bring him. And he gets to you running. ???: [Inhale] ???: Mr... Mr. Gatekeeper! GM: Sorry... ???: Mr. Blacksmith! Mr. Blacksmith! Bs: What... What’s wrong? What’s wrong, Gardener? Gardener: [Panting] You need to come with me, sir! We... [Coughs] We found it, in the grove! Bs: What... What did you find in the grove? Gardener: A corpse! We found a corpse, Mr. Blacksmith! Bs: A corpse?! How so?! GM: And he starts to run with the Gardener. Luba: I’ll go with
them. GM: You run with them, and as soon you’re in the grove, you see the Guard and some other people are there too, standing still, staring… Just let me ask them to press B... No, I’m gonna leave it like this. I’m gonna unmute you all, you’ll see this scene with him but only Joui see this. Okay? Gabi: Okay. Calango: Alright. GM: You see... Joui, when you arrive at the grove with the Blacksmith and with the person he called Gardener, you see a crowd of people staring At one specific tree trunk. You don’t know exactly why
they’re staring at this trunk until you get a bit closer. And you see... ...right before you, with the Doctor and a few more people... There is only you here, let me delete the others... J: [Gasps] GM: The corpse... of the Collector. And the symbol drawn On top of one of the trunks. The Blacksmith gets there running with the Gardener. Bs: What? What happened?! What is this?! Gardener: I don’t... I don’t know! I don’t know, Mr. Blacksmith! I came to the grove to check the flowers, and I found this corpse! GM: The Doctor turns to the
Blacksmith… and then looks at the corpse. Doctor: It can’t be a coincidence, Blacksmith. Right on this trunk. GM: The Blacksmith is staring, scared, and he walks towards the tree trunk. J: Mr. Blacksmith, who does this trunk belong to? Bs: This is my tree trunk. J: What does that mean? Coincidence? Bs: I don’t know, I’m... GM: The Doctor says Doctor: Someone wants to deliver a message! I don’t know what’s going on! What’s happening in Holy Cradle, Blacksmith?! GM: The Blacksmith is staring, static. (J: Mr. Blacksmith, this...) Bs: Guard! Guard! Bs: Call the Miner. Guarda: Okay, Mr.
Blacksmith. GM: And he leaves. J: Mr. Blacksmith, has this ever happened before? Bs: No. What did you say about the Gatekeeper? J: When the Hotelier said He didn’t hear the bell this morning... Doctor: That’s right, I also didn’t hear the bell! Gardener: Me neither, I woke up late this morning because of that. J: I was worried and I thought that what had happened to the Helper could have happened to him too, so we left the hotel running and we went straight to the Gatekeeper’s tower. There, we found blood-stained clothes and small pieces of green crystals
Hidden under his bed. My friends are there now, at this moment, investigating. And now I found you and we found this body. But why the Collector? What type of message are they trying to deliver? Whoever did this. Bs: Meet me at the smithy. GM: He turns around. Bs: And bring your friends too. GM: And he leaves. J: What about the Gatekeeper’s tower? GM: He leaves walking, and doesn’t look back. The Guard also isn’t there anymore. the Doctor slowly walks to the corpse to look at it with more attention. Doctor: It doesn’t... It doesn’t make sense…
What’s going on in Holy Cradle? Have you seen anyone, Gardener? Gardener: No. I woke up and the body was already there. J: I think everyone here in Holy Cradle is in danger. Doctor: First the Helper, and now this… If you want, I think the Blacksmith will want you to call Arthur, he’s at my house. He’s almost done taking care of the cow, she must be stable already. Doctor: Call him. (J: Okay, I will.) Doctor: I’ve... I’ve never seen the Blacksmith like that, I’ve never seen this in my life I... GM: He looks at the tree
trunk where the Helper clearly has been buried. Doctor: I’ll have to prepare the… I’ll have to prepare the... ritual for the... Collector. J: Do that in safety, please. Doctor: Does that still exist in Holy Cradle? J: While I breathe, yes. I’m truly sorry. GM: He’s quiet, staring Clearly confused. He starts to go through the Collector’s clothes, and he finds... ...a glass bottle... ...of green crystals, but it's empty. It's very similar to the one you’ve seen at the Gatekeeper’s house. He looks... He starts to investigate the body Of the Collector. You don’t know exactly what he’s
doing, or what he’s seeing. And now, we go back... Just let me save this scene so I can have it again later. Luba: I just wanted to... Can I just ask him Luba: ...if there are crystals in his mouth? (GM: Sure, sure.) GM: Sure, go ahead. J: Mr. Doctor, did you... Did you find crystals in his mouth? Like the ones we found in the Helper’s mouth? Doctor: Yes. Doctor: He died the exact... (J: So probably...) Doctor: He died the exact same way. His throat was sliced open with the same blade, or a very similar one.
J: Do you think this could have happened before the night started? Doctor: It seems like… ...the number of crystals that he ingested was much higher than the Helper’s. He must have been knocked out for a long time. But the cut is recent. It must have happened last night, but he’s been knocked out for at least... ...a whole day. Or more. He might have ingested the crystal on the day of his trial, when you guys arrived. J: Huh. I see. I’ll go find my friends. Arthur is still at your place, right? Doctor: Yes, he might be
with the cow, she’s better. At least that. J: Thank you. GM: Okay, now we go back to Holy Cradle. You guys are in the Gatekeeper’s tower, what do you wanna do? You don’t know this just happened. Calango: I’m waiting. T: Guys, Joui left? L: He left, I’m not sure if he went after the Blacksmith, but... T: How so? We... We can’t let him walk around alone like that! L: Thiago, there’s so much to be worried about right now. I... (L: Can I suggest something? ) T: I don’t know what he might say, like... L: But
I don’t know if it’s gonna be good... Calango: Wait, are you guys outside of the... Gabi: No, we’re upstairs. Calango: Ah okay. Gabi: We’re upstairs, But I think you can hear, I don’t know. (Calango: No, I’m outside.) Gabi: Can he hear us, Master? GM: What? (Calango: I’m outside.) Gabi: Can Cesar hear us? GM: No no no no, Cesar is outside. L: Big T, I have a suggestion but I don’t know if it’s a good idea. T: Hm? L: I... I think we should take these things, the clothes, the bottle, And especially these papers with the
symbol, and take everything to the Blacksmith. He has enough reasons to suspect us, but... I’m afraid the Gatekeeper will come back and try to get rid of the evidence. T: Liz, picture this: a bunch of people showing up with blood-stained stuff, saying “we broke into the Gatekeeper’s house and found all of this.” How will we prove that? They’re gonna think we’re wrong eventually. They don’t have a reason to trust us and not on the Gatekeeper, who’s been with them for all this time. We just got here! We’ll only incriminate ourselves even more and lose their
trust, we shouldn’t even have told them about any of this. We literally should have just called the Blacksmith And pretended we didn’t know about any of this, afraid that the Gatekeeper could be dead. Now everyone’s gonna have their eyes on us, and we’ll be incriminated for this. L: I thought of something else, but... I don’t know, I even think it’d make more sense, Do you think everyone here in Holy Cradle has multiple pieces of clothing? Because we’ve been wearing the same clothes for a long time, and the Gatekeeper... Well, His clothes are under the bed,
blood-stained. And we killed a naked creature, which was actually a person… I don’t know, that crossed my mind for a second. T: I don’t know... (L: Do you think it's a stupid idea?) GM: The drawer... GM: The drawer that was open on the dresser next to his bed was full of clothes. Gabi: Okay, but, were the clothes identical to the ones he was wearing? (Gabi: A drawer of the same clothes?) GM: You didn’t check it. Gabi: Ah, OK. I will... Gabi: I will… L: Big T, grab the... grab the papers with the symbol. Take them
out of here. The symbol is too dangerous to... ...to anyone to keep contact with, take at least the papers. Rakin: I’ll hide them. T: We’re good. GM: It’s a lot of them, like many and many of them, you’ll spend a good time picking all of them up. Rakin: I’ll hide them in… I don’t know, I wanna find someplace in the house to hide the papers. GM: There aren't a lot of places to hide them. He has very little furniture, he has a bed, a desk, an armchair, And a dresser. It’s all he has in the
house. Rakin: Can I hide the papers under the armchair? GM: You’re gonna spend some time doing that, around 10 minutes… GM: Around 5 minutes. (Gabi: As Big T is doing that, I’ll go downstairs.) GM: Okay. Rakin: I’ll hide the papers. Gabi: I wanna open the dresser, it's already open, check if his clothes are all the same. GM: Uh, what? Oh, right! You look and... There are different clothes, but they’re all kind of the same style. (GM: You can’t tell, like...) Gabi: Okay. So they just don’t change clothes. GM: Yeah, but also, we just don’t wanna
make three different miniatures for each character just to make them change clothes. They do change clothes. Gabi: Right, ok. I just didn’t know of that information, if they changed clothes or not, since everyone stinks. Including us. GM: They change clothes, but it’s subtle. They wear the same style of clothes most of the time. Gabi: Okay. L: Okay, wait... forget that Big T? T: What? L: Are you done? T: Wait, I’m working on it, wait... give me ten, (T: five...) GM: Cesar, you hear them talking, you hear Thiago hiding something, you’re in front of the door.
Calango: Alright. I... I open the door a little, still looking forward. Ce: Everything’s okay there, guys? L: Lil’ C... (Ce: Sup.) L: He... he drew the symbol on papers, so many papers, like... L: too many papers, (GM: You...) L: piles and piles of paper. (Ce: Who drew... who?) GM: You... Sorry, not yet. L: Maybe it was the Gatekeeper? I’m not sure, but... there are piles and more piles of paper. Ce: Did you find him there, or only his clothes? L: Uh. No, I don’t know, doesn’t seem like he could be hiding here. There isn’t much
here, there isn’t a lot of furniture. Ce: Got it. Joui, he left and he seemed very upset, he said you guys... ...found some blood-stained clothes, and then he left to find the Blacksmith and he hasn’t returned yet. L: Yeah, I heard him saying that he was going to leave, but... Calango: Can I see a commotion in the grove from here? GM: You can, but you can especially see the Blacksmith starting to go up this inclination, coming in the direction of the tower. Ce: Liz, I think the Blacksmith… I think he’s coming. Calango: And then I
point at the direction he’s coming from. GM: It’s hard not to spot him, he’s coming from afar. Gabi: He’s coming here? GM: Yes, he is. Towards the Gatekeeper's tower. L: Big T! Grab some of the papers and bring them down here, the Blacksmith is coming here. T: Sure. Rakin: I grab what I couldn’t hide. And watch the Blacksmith arrive. GM: You see the Blacksmith, he’s walking, he’s walking... towards the tower, he hasn’t arrived yet. You had to yell for him to hear, Liz, he’s at the top of the tower. Gabi: Mhm. (GM: Okay.) Gabi: I’m
yelling from inside the tower. GM: Do you wait for the Blacksmith or are you guys talking? (Gabi: I don’t know.) Ce: Guys, you didn’t touch anything, did you? L: I don’t know, we just messed around with the papers... but I didn’t even touch the clothes under the bed. Ce: What if the Blacksmith suspects us? L: Honestly, Thiago, Gabi: Thiago... Ow! It’s tough today. L: Honestly, Lil’ C, I don’t know. There isn’t a reason for them to suspect us, there isn’t a reason for us to do any of this, there is no reason. Why would we
do this? Ce: Yeah, I know, We know that, but they don’t… Anyway, he is almost here. [Cleans throat] GM: You see the Blacksmith, you can see he looks very angry, and he’s arriving. Bs: What are you doing here? (Bs: Why are...) L: Mr. Blacksmith, we came here... Bs: I know, Joui told me. L: Then I think you’ll wanna see this. Gabi: And I go back inside. Calango: I stay by the door. Bs: You should have talked to me, talked to the Guard, anyone! You are not an authority in Holy Cradle! You can’t... You can’t just
break into people’s houses without permission! Where’s the Gatekeeper? L: We thought he could be in danger, but when we got there he already wasn’t home. (Ce: Why did you...) L: Come in, please. Bs: You guys knew the Collector, didn’t you? L: From Carpazinha, yes. Bs: He was killed... just like the Helper. Ce: What? L: Wait, just like the Helper, with a knife to his neck, L: the symbol and everything? (Bs: I don't...) Bs: The symbol, yes. In the grove. Rakin: I go downstairs with the papers just now, right? GM: He sees you with the pages.
Bs: What’s that? What are you doing? T: We found this. Bs: Let me see it. GM: He grabs the paper from your hand. Bs: The symbol. L: Mr. Blacksmith, we... ...looked under the Gatekeeper's bed, but we didn’t touch anything. Bs: Who allowed you to break into the Gatekeeper’s house?! Ce: I... can only apologize, Mr. Blacksmith, we really shouldn’t have come here. GM: He crumples the paper with the symbol and throws it to the ground, all of them. Bs: There are things in Holy Cradle that you can’t understand. You don’t know many things about here. You
have a lot to learn about the town! Things don't... Since you got here, Things are happening in a way they shouldn’t! Go to the tavern, I’ll meet you there. Ce: Right. Bs: And you, do you still have that card? L: Yes, (L: it's here.) Bs: Bring it with you. Gabi: I show him the card. Bs: Bring it with you. L: Alright. GM: He’s standing still, waiting for you to leave. (Ce: Oh, okay.) L: Mr. Blacksmith, L: I’m sorry for insisting, but... ...just give the tower a look later. And I’m sorry we broke in. Gabi: And
I leave. Rakin: I leave and don’t even look at his face. GM: Okay. You see him lowering his head a little and going into the tower, and slams the door shut. [BAM] L: Cesar, are you ok? Ce: I’m good. And you, Liz? L: I’m fine, but you were running a bit weird. But just leave it, it’s okay. GM: Okay. L: You didn’t hurt your leg, did you? (Ce: It’s alright, it's al... No, no.) GM: Joui, you arrive then, you run and you get to the the Doctor’s house. You see Arthur looking happy hugging Jennifer. A:
Ah! Jennifer! J: Arthur-san? (GM: Let me get him...) A: Hi, Joui, Good morning! Look at Jennifer, she’s better, We saved her! GM: And you see the cow, she has a big scar on top of her head, but she’s well. She looks at you and: [moooo] Luba: I approach the cow, and I wanna pet her. GM: Arthur is... Arthur gets on top of her, like he’s about to ride her. A: Look, Joui, she’s fine! My sweet little cow! GM: And he hugs her. J: Can I pet her, Arthur? A: Of course you can! Luba: I approach
my hand slowly. GM: She goes: [mooo] [slurg] and licks your hand. J: Argh! How adorable! A: She’s very adorable! Let’s take her home once we’re done Please, let’s take her! J: We will, it's just that... I... I think we have a lot of things to solve, Arthur… Someone else died last night. A: But the... What?! J: This morning. A: How so? J: Someone... Someone was found dead this morning. GM: He hops off the cow. A: Who? J: The Collector. A: The Co... [gasps] Murilo from Carpazinha?! J: Murilo from Carpazinha. A: Oh my god! How? Where?
Did he have the symbol? J: Just like Helper. A: What’s going on, Joui? J: I don’t know, but… Ah... I’ll explain it better, but the Blacksmith is a bit... He's a bit mad and pissed because of all that's going on and he asked us to meet him at the smithy. A: Blacksmith is mad? J: Yeah, he looked really... mad when we found the corpse. A: Do they’ll suspect us? We got here and two people died already, we asked about the symbol and it... keeps appearing. Do you think they’ll arrest us, Joui? J: I, I don’t
know, Arthur-san. But it’s our responsibility to try to help and solve this. Don’t you think? A: Yes, I do. Uhm... Jeniffer… GM: He looks at her: A: I’ll take care of this, but I’ll be back, okay? I love you. J: I, I take... GM: And he goes... He starts walking. J: I’ll take care of him, Jeniffer. Luba: Does she make any sound, Master? GM: She just looks and goes: Jeniffer: [Moo] Luba: I revere her. (A: Let 's go!) A: Where are we heading? Where are the guys? J: The guys are in the Gatekeeper’s Tower, but
the Blacksmith told us to meet him at the smithy or at the Tavern. Let’s... let’s drop by the smithy to see if he's there. A: Okay. Oh my god, Joui. GM: He walks by... he goes with you, and you, at this point, already can see each other from afar. You are here, going towards the smithy, and you were going here, right? Luba: Yeah. GM: Okay. You can see each other from afar and, eventually you arrive in front of the smithy. Luba: Okay. Ce: Uh… (A: Good morning, guys.) A: What’s going on, bro? (J: I spoke
to the Blacksmith.) A: It seems they found Murilo dead?! T: No, wait. We've heard, but where did they find him? A: Where, Joui? Where was it? J: At the groove. Ce: You… Did you meet the Blacksmith, Joui? He went to the Gatekeeper’s Tower, he didn’t know we're there, apparently. J: I told him about... (Ce: Or he did.) J: I told him that you were there. J: Is the right thing to do. (Ce: Yeah.) Ce: Yeah, he got there pissed off, we were searching and got into the Gatekeeper’shouse. Anyways… He’s really pissed off. (J: It’s a
waste of time,) J: Being pissed about it, doesn't make sense. We've gotta worry about people’s safety, all we did was follow a lead. He’ll understand eventually. T: But, Joui, if we are the first ones to find the lead, they’ll think we planted it. That is, if they already don’t trust us. T: Thiago-sensei, nothing to hide, nothing to fear! If we don’t act bravely, there is no reason for us being here. T: But that’s not bravery. That’s risking ourselves too much. You… We are showing our necks too much. Like, there are always people dying, but I...
I don't want none of us to die and neither one of them. J: And I have reasons to believe that we are not competent enough. There have been two deaths already! I’m tired of sitting still and doing nothing. We need to act! T: Cautiously! hinking, not acting on emotion. J: I agree. Ce: Let’s wait the Blacksmith... (J: I agree.) to hear what he has to say. Anyway, he doesn't seem to suspect us. Although… Where was the Collector was found, exactly? J: At the Trial Groove. Ce: We weren't even close, and even so, I don't... (L:
But wait...) Ce: If we did go there, Ce: wouldn’t someone spot us? So I think... I think no one would suspect us for the Collector’s death. L: Yes, and wasn't his trial like, two days ago? One day and a half, two days, I don't know? L: Wasn't it? (J: The trial?) Yes, he.... He was going through the trial, and return to Carpazinha... ...and all of that. Why was he still here then? J: Someone might’ve held him here. Ce: We can ask the Blacksmith about it. L: So you think he was in danger for two days?
Two days in danger? J: The Doctor said he ate crystals a long time before dying, he probably was already... unconscious for over... ...for over one day. And the cut is fresh. He died a bit... earlier today. L: Wait, but… So he lost consciousness before the Helper’s death…? Like… whoever is doing this, they're choosing the victims and killing them in a certain order? J: I don’t know if the Blacksmith told you but, the Collector’s body was leaning on the Blacksmith’s trunk. That’s why I think he got so nervous. J: He and the Doctor. Ce: The Blacksmith’s
trunk? J: Yes. L: First the Blacksmith’s helper dies. L: Now, the second person is murdered on the Blacksmith’s trunk. (Ce: But...) J: I heard the Doctor saying That this is probably some kind of message. L: But... for us or for the Blacksmith? J: Probably for the Blacksmith. I think his life is in danger too. So are… a lot of other lives here in Holy Cradle. Ce: That’s so weird, when we were at the groove. I remember seeing lots of trees. Why right on the Blacksmith’s? This is for sure some message. T: But how did they
kill Murilo, did you see it, Joui? J: It was the same way they killed... the Helper. With the symbol on the trunk, And also... The symbol drawn with blood and the throat cut, with the same blade, according to the Doctor. L: Did you see if there was something written next to the symbol? J: I don’t think so, but I didn’t check. The Doctor didn’t see it. If he saw, he didn’t say it. L: I’m gonna ask the Doctor later! (T: But...) T: But how did they cut his neck? Like, they... Was it the same thing,
he ate crystals? What happened? J: He had crystals on his mouth, I thought that the Blacksmith had told you, sorry. L: No, that's okay, but... It's just weird, because the people who are dying are people… One was related to the Blacksmith, and the other was on Blacksmith’s trunk... The Blacksmith is directly connected to the person who is murdering them. I think. GM: You finally see the Blacksmith turning in the corner... and going into your direction. Are you going to be quiet? Or not? He is coming, he is still coming. Calango: I stay quiet, I stay
quiet. J: Any question we have, we ask him. (Gabi: I stay quiet as well.) GM: You see that he has.... GM: a different look than when he went... to the Tower for the first time. He is a little confused. Bs: Oh… Do you want to come in? L: Eh… yes, please. Calango: I enter. Gabi: I go in as well. Luba: I also go in. (GM: Okay.) GM: Let me put it here. Let me see if this works… It does! The Blacksmith enters in the Forge, he dwells a little... (Luba: Man, I split myself in two.)
GM: [Laughs] You can choose how you are now. He dwells a little at the desk. (Luba: I’m Lusidius now.) You see that he has a sad look, he seems to be tearing up a little. Bs: Uh… did you see the Gatekeeper somewhere? L: No. We... (J: No.) ...went there, actually, looking for the Gatekeeper, since the bell didn't ring in the morning. J: We were worried about his safety. Bs: I’m worried about everyone else’s safety. J: Me too, Mr. Blacksmith. (L: Uhm.. Gatekeeper.) Gabi: [Laughing] Gatekeeper. L: Blacksmith... Gabi: It’s difficult today. L: Eh, Mr. Blacksmith, I'm
sorry to ask these things now but... Do you know if anyone in Holy Cradle has something against you? Bs: There are things in Holy... There are things you don’t know about Holy Cradle. There are secrets in this town you must not know yet! GM: And he keeps going. He looks to the desk where there are a lot of knives, with many sizes and with a space where another should be. Bs: Uh… Do you… Do you have any new evidence about what was the person that you found yesterday? If you are thinking that he was Gatekeeper,
he wasn’t. I would definitely recognize the Gatekeeper or any Lusidius of Holy Cradle. But... (L: Uhm...) GM: He looks to Liz… (L: Well, what I think...) GM: Keep going. L: Uhm, what I think is that creature was only attacking Holy Cradle’s animals. All the animals had some bites and they seemed to be from a human. like from that... person in the florest. But whoever is attacking the residents of Holy Cradle. Indeed, For sure, they're not even similar to that creature. Bs: The Miner is coming soon. He knows the caves better than anyone. I... I don’t
know what to think, I… I believe that if we are going to find an answer for what is happening now. This answer is inside that door. It’s my only hope. L: Did someone open that door before? Bs: No, since I was in Holy Cradle that door was almost like a legend. People wondered if it was really a door, or if it was just a type of… ore different from Holy Cradle, but it was very resistant. We never managed to break it, open it, in any other way. J: Mr. Blacksmith, if there... Since we will enter
that place, that may be strange even for you. Maybe we should know these secrets that... ...you think we're not prepared to know. Bs: I can't! You can't know yet, some things... Some things in Holy Cradle, only lusidii can know, there is an order of events that need to happen when you become one of us. I'm sorry, but... ...you need to trust me now. I'll look for the Gatekeeper. He'll pay for what he did! L: Mr. Blacksmith? Before you go, (Bs: I didn't say it before,) Bs: but this was the knife that the Gatekeeper used. It’s
his old knife, before I made a new one for him. I didn't think he... I didn't think it made sense for him to just use the knife… He wants me to know that it was him. J: Maybe it's a trap, Mr. Blacksmith... Maybe someone... set him up. It doesn't mean it was him. Until now, we don't know. Bs: I would say it was one of you, but I saw all of you last night. I... I'll prepare the Guard and some Miner’s and Farmer’s helpers. We will find the Gatekeeper. And we’ll get answers. Meanwhile, you can
enter the cave with the Miner, he knows it better than anyone. It is a dangerous place, you need to be careful. Bs: You can go to the Doctor... (L&J: Yes, Mr Blacksmith.) and get a green crystal bottle each. You’ll need it. L: A quick question, before we go. You seemed very interested when I mentioned the five Doctors that we were looking for in Carpazinha. And a little bit about their connection to the Five Guardians. Were the Five Guardians, the people who founded Holy Cradle? Bs: Uh, as I said, I don't know. It’s just a legend
that is passed from Blacksmith to another. That there are five guardians and they wait in the maze’s center. It’s the only thing that we all know. We don't write books. We don't need to, There’s no need. Holy Cradle has its legends and this is how we work. This is how I was taught, and this is how I will teach the next Helper. How I taught, actually... L: The legend is about the Endless maze, then. Well, thank you. GM: When you say that, you see... You hear heavy footsteps walking in the smithy. There are two big
people, you see The Guard walking in with The Miner. They’re not that small, wait. Ce: Uhm. Just a second, uhm... Calango: I approach the counter. Ce: Blacksmith? Bs: Yes? Calango: I have a system question, but you can answer me as a character, he will probably know the answer. Ce: I had an idea, do you think that if I use fire pebbles or red pebbles on my sling, maybe I could hurt more or even burn the enemies? Bs: Ah... ...it’s a valid strategy. You, maybe... You’ll need to keep them in a small portion. A large amount
of red crystals together... will cause an extreme heat. You will not be able to withstand. Wait. GM: He puts his hand in the fire... (Ce: What is this?) Not the fire, on red crystals that are here. When he does that, he gets a handful of it and he.. He drops them, He has a handful. Bs: Give me your bag. Ce: Okay. Calango: I hand him my bag. I didn't even know I had a bag, but now I do. (GM: It's a bag where you keep the stones.) Calango: Okay, I thought it was a sack. (GM:
He takes the crystals.) GM: When he gets close, you see that it is very hot. His hand are almost on fire, but he doesn't seem to feel anything. He seems to be used to it. He just turns: Bs: It will get a little hot but... you’ll get used to it. GM: He puts... (Ce: Okay then, thank you.) He puts 10 green crystals that you can use as ammo, And they add 2 on damage. Calango: Red, right? GM: Red, right. They give +2 [damage]. Calango: So is it going to be 1d6+2 or 1d6+3? GM: 1d6+3. Calango:
Okay. GM: You have 10 special shots. Calango: I will put it in parentheses then. [whispering] 1 d6+3... Luba: Naisu! (Nice) Gabi: Naisu! GM: Then The Guard comes in: Guard: Uhm... Blacksmith... You told me to go to the Tavern but, I saw you coming in here. Miner: Blacksmith! What's going on?! What is it, the Collector’s body now? GM: The Blacksmith walks towards the Miner. Bs: Have you seen The Gatekeeper somewhere, Miner? GM: The Miner looks at him. Miner: Uhm... Not really. Why? Bs: I think it's time for the Ignari... discover the cave’s secret, Miner. You can
take them to the door… and… guide them. Take them to the Doctor first, to get a green crystal bottle. I will look for The Gatekeeper. GM: The Miner stares at the Blacksmith, (J: Mr. Blacksmith...) like this. Staring at him, kind of serious. Miner: Okay, I... These ones? You want me to take them with me to... But what... You want me to take them to the door? Bs: Yeah. I think they'll be able to open the door, Miner. And I think it... ...must have the answers... ...to what's going on with this symbol. Miner: Okay. (J: Mr
Blacksmith...) You... guys ready? I don’t know, I am! I was actually going there now. J: Before that, Mr. Blacksmith. Just please be careful with The Gatekeeper. In the beginning, the first time we came here, he said that… Thiago-sensei could light a cigarette. He didn’t tell us about the fire crystals, J: I think he wanted to... (Bs: He...) Bs: Do you think he purposely wanted you to use the fire? J: ...Yes. In a way that the... Bs: It doesn't make sense! Bs: His job is to explain right away that we can't use fire in Holy Crade.
It's one of the first things he should've told you! I was surprised that you didn't know about the crystals yet. J: Yeah, but he said we could light it up. He said it wouldn't be a problem. I think that the first night was... a distraction so that... ...the Helper was attacked. (L: Well noticed, Joui.) Just be careful, he could be... He could be more dangerous than you think. GM: The Blacksmith looks at The Miner, they look at each other, they... Bs: Yeah, I... There's a lot going on right now. Hey, Guard! Tell the Miner's helpers
and the Farmer's helpers to look around for the Gatekeeper. He has to be somewhere in Holy Cradle. Miner, take good care of this group. GM: The Miner looks at him. Miner: Oh. Well, I think they can take care of themselves, as it seems! But don't worry! Well, let's go to the Doctor then. You don't have any crystal bottles, do you? L&Ce: No. Miner: Okay, We’ll go there get it and then... Hey, I want you all to pay attention to me!. Buddy on the back, can you come closer? T: Oh. Luba: He was talking to the
shelf. T: I was looking at the fire, I was looking at the fire crystals to see how it works, I thought it was fascinating the way he took the crystals and crushed them. Miner: The mining cave... is not like any other place in Holy Cradle, it’s unpredictable. We have to go to the Doctor all the time because we’re injured, look at the size of my scar here. GM: And he shows a lot of scars, all over his body. Miner: It’s a dangerous place, and any creature can appear at any time. L: Any creature? Of what
kind? Miner: That’s the point, we never know. Holy Cradle always has a new surprise for us. L: Sorry for asking, but... ...did you notice the presence of a certain black sludge in this cave? L: Different from normal sludge. (Miner: Sludge?) Miner: Black sludge? GM: He looks at the Blacksmith, The Blacksmith looks at The Guard. Miner: Uh... No!? Well... uh... The cave’s also very dark, so... At the entrance, I’ll give you a crystal lantern. Don’t separate. It’s very easy to get lost in the cave. And watch out for... ...the big red crystals. They could burn you.
Got it? J: Got it. (Ce: Right.) Miner: Let’s go then. (T: Thank you, Miner.) GM: He leaves [Heavy steps] (T: Okay!) T: Hey, Mr. Blacksmith. (Gabi: I’ll go behind him. I like him.) Calango: Just to be sure, I still have my CS knife, don’t I? GM: You do. GM: You guys still have your guns, (Calango: Okay.) GM: you’re just not using them. Luba: I do. I always have my shotgun with me, it’s always on my backpack. Luba: Always, always! (GM: [sighs]) Luba: Don't sigh. T: Everything will be fine. Mr. (Gabi: Do you cares it every
now and then?) GM: What did you say ? (Luba: Not when someone is looking.) T: Everything will be fine, Mr. Blacksmith. We will... try to help you with this, And sorry for everything. Bs: I know it will. Eventually. GM: And he turns and goes into his room. He lowers as he enters. GM: You then... (Calango: Okay, I follow The Miner.) GM: You go back to Holy Cradle... And in Holy Cradle, you... you see the Miner going towards the Doctor's house. Where are you in here... Alright. Just a second... Okay, okay. Let me just put the
Miner together with you here. You then walk, and arrive at the Doctor's house with the cow on the side, and oops… Oh, fuck, there! The Miner, he hits the wall hard. Miner: Hey, Doctor! We’ll need some new bottles! GM: The Doctor: Doctor: Oh my God, Miner. What do you want? GM: He comes to the door. Miner: Bah, give me one, two, three... four... five… six green crystal bottles for us. We are going to the cave today. Doctor: You are going to the cave?! What are you going to do there?! Ce: Uh… The Blacksmith told us
to go there, that there are legends, Ce: there is a door. (L: There is a door.) Doctor: Wait, what about the door? You will... Why would they be able to open the door? They... the door was never opened... J: We have some sort of... (Miner: Me too...) J: We have some sort of a key, apparently. Miner: Yes, The Blacksmith said that it looks like they have a... By the way, let me see it. Can I see? Gabi: I'll get close to him and I'll hand it to him. GM: He takes it. (L: Here.) Miner: Damn!
It seems to fit, it’s the right size. It could be anything, right? You can't tell. Miner: Well... (L: Uhm...) Miner: But then why... (L: There’s a hole in the door? That's it?) Miner: We never knew, There is a little hole and we tried to look inside, we never saw anything. But... Well, we tried to put a lot of things, crystal there, it never opened! Why does the Blacksmith think this is going to open? GM: He gives it back to you. L: Uh, why would I... (Ce: It’s worth the try.) L: I found it in an
interesting place, in Carpazinha. GM: The cow is next to you, she: Jeniffer: [Moooo] Gabi: [Laughs] Out of nowhere. (Rakin: I want to see how the cow is.) GM: She has this big scar, almost as if she had gotten a big burn, And her head is a little sunken with a bump, and... yeah, but she looks okay, she doesn't seem to be in any pain. Calango: She's just like Cris with the scar, right? (Rakin: I pat the cow.) GM: Yeah, it's like Cris, exactly! Calango: And then I add sanity points because I remembered my father. [laughs]
Luba: You’re full... Calango: No, but, I’m full at my current, I can add to the maximum, can't I? (GM: Yeah, you can.) Luba: Oh! I didn't know, that's why I was quiet the entire session! GM: No, you can increase the maximum, the maximum is just to represent in your character's art. How much did you suffer this session, got it? Rakin: Yeah, I started with 75. Gabi: Ah, this session I'm already looking better. Rakin: Sad... GM: You... (Calango: Uhm...) GM: The Doctor... (Luba: Man, when Joui discovers this he is very......) he is very... he is very
hopeful of a better future. Gabi: [laughs] (GM: The... the Doctor,) GM: he goes in then, you see, he stays there a little bit. Miner: Huh, are you good fighters? Ce: No. But I know how to shoot. Miner: Well, you better get behind me then. Miner: Because I can take it, this potbelly huh, hahah! GM: He hits it twice. Miner: This one can handle it. Have you ever eaten chickery chicken? T: Is there chickery chicken here? (Ce: Only sandwichy sandwich.) Miner: Look... (J: Sounds delicious.) Miner: I can eat two haha, depending on the day. Oh, Doctor!
GM: The Doctor leaves his house. Doctor: Here, look. GM: He opens a little belt, A leather one, and there are 6 bottles, those you saw under the... you saw under... The Gatekeeper’s bed, and one with the Collector too. And all of them have a big green crystal. Doctor: You can take it, you can... you’ve seen how it works. Don’t get it with your bare hands, always get it with some tissue, something, because if you don’t, the energy of… it goes straight to your hand, you’re going to waste its heal. And keep it in the bottle,
because it’s very easy to lose the energy of this. These miners lose their energy all the time and keep saying that the crystal is broken, for God's sake, right, Miner?! Miner: Huh, you're the one who gave me the broken crystal! Every time, the crystal just comes out of my pocket, and am I to blame? You have to make a better bottle. Dr: You have to know how to deal with it better! Anyway. Just apply it to the wound properly, don’t touch it directly on the skin, and everything will be fine. You saw how it works.
J: Got it. L: Doctor...? Doctor: Yeah? L: I ... Do you have any clamps? Like the ones you use to hold the crystal. I have some skills, I think I... I would like to take one. Perhaps, it will help me in my precision, to treat injuries. Dr: Oh, take it. Take the pliers, it won't change much. You can use it with fabric, I just rather it because I don’t have to change... ...iron and clean the cloth every time. Doctor: But if you want to. (L: I appreciate it, I prefer this way.) Doctor: Just bring it
back to me please. It’s difficult making a new one, you have to ask the Blacksmith, Ah… L: Yes, I will, thanks. GM: He looks sad. (Gabi: And I keep it.) Doctor: If you… find any answer to what killed my son… don't hesitate to come... and tell me. Please. Ce: We sure will, Mr. Doctor. The first person to know is going to be you. J: You have my word, Mr. Doctor. T: Doctor, I wanted to ask you something about the crystal... Dr: And Miner, take care of them in the cave. I know how bad it’s there.
Miner: Uh, don't worry, I'm used to it. Those here seem to take it well. Doctor: Well... They might take it but they get a lot too, you haven't see what I saw. What is it, sorry? T: Uh, I wanted to ask you one last thing about the crystal. Doctor: Hm? T: You said it’s anesthetic, right? When you swallow it. Doctor: Indeed. T: And is there any way it can stop you from feeling pain without you sleeping? Doctor: No. T: Okay. Doctor: If you ingest the crystal, Your system automatically pauses. It is very useful for cases
like the cow, or... ...the Helper. Ce: Okay, yeah... Is everyone ready there? Miner: I'm ready, I was born ready. (Ce: Arthur?) Ce: Arthur, won't you say goodbye to...? (T: Let’s go.) GM: Ah, Arthur he comes to here... A: I'm.. I'm always... ready. Jeniffer, don't worry [smack smack] I'll be back. I love her, she's my new bike. She’s so cute! Ce: Okay okay. Shall we go then? Ce: Everyone ready then? (GM: Alright,) GM: now you... each of you have a green crystal bottle, that heals 1d6 of HP when you use it. You can use it freely,
it's a life potion. Luba: Okay, I'm adding it to the backpack. Rakin: Cool. GM: You start walking, and the Miner... Calango: Woh... GM: What happened? Calango: No, nothing. I just saw I have Cris's phone too, but it probably ran out of battery because I didn't turn it off. GM: You start walking towards the mine. You see The Blacksmith and The Guard and some other miners in front of the smithy talking. The Blacksmith points to one place, The Guard points to another and they kind of leave and look around. Gabi: Master, just one question, about the
crystal system. GM: Yeah? Gabi: If we have a small injury, Can we use the crystal without spending all of it? GM: You... No! You spend it, you take it and spend it, and you can only heal what you... like, if you lose 2 HP and you use the crystal, you will heal at most 2. GM: On that wound. (Gabi: Okay.) GM: So you heal the wound, (Gabi: Great.) GM: if you lose 6 HP, you can heal up to 6. If you lose 4 HP at once, you can heal up to 4. Gabi: great. Rakin: And
if I have 2 out of 3? GM: You can only heal one of the 3. Rakin: Okay. GM: The Miner then follows… Actually, 2 out of 3, you can break the crystal and use it in each one. You have up to 6 HP to heal with the crystals, it can be like that, I think it works well. (Gabi: Okay.) Gabi: Alright. (Rakin: Good.) GM: Okay. You walk then and, following The Miner towards the cave. You see that the cave that had several miners going in and out with carts and other things... The Miner is up
here, woops. You can bring your characters. You see that all these helpers here are at the smithy; He starts walking in, he stops. Miner: Ow. Here the thing is going to get real bad, aight? I don’t know what, I saw that you’ve already gotten into a lot of things, but here… ...here is a big deal. J: Got it. Ce: We'll be alright. Miner: You think you can take it? Rakin: I just chuckle. T: Let's go. (Miner: That's how I like it!) Miner: Okay. So, come with me. GM: And he... enters the cave, and all of
you... ...feel this air a little humid and... ...and quite heavy, inside the cave. You all come in, he turns... He doesn't turn, actually, he just keeps walking. And you see that the cave has this big entrance, And it gets thinner and has a lot of boxes and mining tools, some wheelbarrows, some crystals thrown half-gray and colorless already. Calango: Do we have any flashlights? GM: You see, to your side, a table with a lot of facilities and what looks like red crystals. The Miner goes towards them to pick it up, to deliver it to you. You
see... ...that inside the cave, going down... there is mist coming out a little bit from the bottom of it. And this is where we are going to end today's session and start the cave next week, to see where this is going! GM: Thank you very much! (Calango: Discovering the cave's secret.) GM: Thank you all so much. (Gabi: Thank you very much!) GM: For being part of another very good session. Next week continues, with Arthur back! GM: Thanks everyone who watched, (Luba: Yes!) GM: and... (Gabi: Nobody died!) Luba: Yay! (Rakin: Nobody died!) GM: Nobody died yet.
(Calango: Almost, almost.) GM: No one died yet. (Luba: Oh, thank you for the yet.) GM: No, actually the Collector died, the cow died, GM: the forest creature died. (Luba: The cow didn't die.) GM: Oh no! The cow almost died. (Gabi: The cow didn't die!) GM: No, died the... (Rakin: You want to kill Jeniffer!) GM: A lot of people died, but... Luba: Your soundboard died too. GM: My soundboard died, that's true, that's true. Rakin: It died, that one died hard. GM: Okay, really, thank you so much GM: for another incredible session, it was really cool, it
was really nice. And next week, at 6PM, we’ll be back! Tuesday we have the replay for those who missed it, and Thursday on YouTube we have… ...the recording. Right. Sleep well and until next Saturday, bye bye. Calango: Fuck off! (Luba: Bye~) GM: Stop it!! Everytime, Calango, everytime...
