S2 Chapter Twenty-Five

WEBVTT
00:00:47.149 --> 00:00:50.030
The war between the Republic and the Separatist rages on.
00:00:50.189 --> 00:00:54.030
With no one in sight, both sides look to desperate measures to end the conflict.
00:00:54.189 --> 00:01:01.390
With his treachery revealed, Talon Nexus has begun a civil war on Alderon, and he's using his daughter Malia to take control of the planet.
00:01:01.629 --> 00:01:09.069
Having breached the castle, Dalen Galt, Credo, and Kanari storm the throne room, while Q Rock gets reacquainted with an old foe.
00:01:09.310 --> 00:01:12.509
You're listening to chapter 25 of the Book of Dalen Galt.
00:01:12.750 --> 00:01:23.390
The Book of Dalen Galt stars Rob Hunter as Dalen Galt, Richard Capucill as Kanari, Justin Chapman as Credo, Peyton Castle as Qrock, and myself Zack Som as the Galaxy Master.
00:01:27.069 --> 00:01:27.789
Peyton.
00:01:28.349 --> 00:01:29.150
Question of the day.
00:01:29.390 --> 00:01:30.750
Question of the day.
00:01:31.390 --> 00:01:33.949
Ah, that's like scratching a niche, man.
00:01:34.430 --> 00:01:35.069
I'm ready.
00:01:35.310 --> 00:01:35.629
All right.
00:01:35.789 --> 00:01:37.310
Today's question of the day.
00:01:37.549 --> 00:01:46.349
So you have Yoda, Qui-Gon, or I guess I could just phrase it like this the Jedi Council plus Anakin is gonna sit down and have uh drinks together.
00:01:46.670 --> 00:01:48.989
How can you be on the council but not be a master?
00:01:49.310 --> 00:01:49.950
My man.
00:01:50.429 --> 00:01:52.509
Um they're just letting him.
00:01:52.590 --> 00:01:54.109
They're letting him or allowing him to hang out.
00:01:54.349 --> 00:01:55.390
He has permission.
00:01:55.549 --> 00:01:56.670
Um, he knows Kenobi.
00:01:56.829 --> 00:01:58.509
Kenobi's cool with everyone else.
00:01:58.670 --> 00:02:02.989
So uh they all sit down for a night of hard drinking together as the council.
00:02:03.230 --> 00:02:04.590
How does the night play out?
00:02:04.750 --> 00:02:06.750
Oh, oh, this is awesome.
00:02:07.069 --> 00:02:08.110
Hard drinking?
00:02:08.349 --> 00:02:08.829
Oh, yeah.
00:02:09.149 --> 00:02:10.349
Everyone's getting very drunk.
00:02:10.509 --> 00:02:12.670
Well, Qui-Gon's not a master, so he's hanging out too, right?
00:02:12.750 --> 00:02:12.990
Yeah, yeah.
00:02:13.230 --> 00:02:14.990
So it's like the high-end Jedi's.
00:02:15.870 --> 00:02:17.870
This is the Jedi's just blowing off Steam James.
00:02:18.030 --> 00:02:18.750
It's Hot Boy Night.
00:02:19.230 --> 00:02:20.430
Hot Boy Night at the Council.
00:02:20.670 --> 00:02:31.069
I feel like Qui-Gon's gotta be that one in the corner of the room drinking like some really fringe liquor just talking about conspiracy theories.
00:02:31.230 --> 00:02:32.430
Like that checks out.
00:02:32.590 --> 00:02:39.949
He has like an a Lebanese like cornmeal vodka, and he's just talking about conspiracy theories.
00:02:40.269 --> 00:02:44.430
Where he's giving advice that nobody is not actually around, it's flat.
00:02:44.990 --> 00:02:48.110
That would be good, and he's definitely bumming everybody else out.
00:02:48.349 --> 00:02:54.109
I feel like there's gotta be at least one point in the night where everyone is so drunk that they end up levitating vomit.
00:02:54.349 --> 00:02:54.829
Oh god.
00:02:55.789 --> 00:02:56.829
Horrifying.
00:02:57.069 --> 00:02:58.270
Horrifying.
00:02:59.789 --> 00:03:08.750
Like I was trying to figure out how their personalities would handle booze, but we have to address the fact that they have superpowers, superpowers, and they're just fucking wasted.
00:03:09.150 --> 00:03:10.990
A lot of sloppy force use.
00:03:11.229 --> 00:03:12.349
I think they start picking on Yoda.
00:03:12.590 --> 00:03:13.789
No, just because of his size.
00:03:14.590 --> 00:03:15.150
They start picking on Yonga.
00:03:15.310 --> 00:03:17.069
Yoda's tolerance would be higher than anybody's.
00:03:17.389 --> 00:03:18.509
I was gonna say it's gotta be.
00:03:18.669 --> 00:03:21.069
Once Yoda gets drunk enough, he just speaks normal.
00:03:21.469 --> 00:03:22.669
How's everyone doing?
00:03:22.909 --> 00:03:24.109
Everyone doing well today.
00:03:24.189 --> 00:03:24.750
That's good.
00:03:24.990 --> 00:03:25.389
I don't know.
00:03:25.550 --> 00:03:37.550
I feel like just to add flavor behind this the lines of the Return of the Jedi script, I feel like he turns into Return of the Jedi Yoda that's just like that's probably better.
00:03:37.949 --> 00:03:39.229
Beating people off with his cane.
00:03:39.310 --> 00:03:40.590
Yes, I know what I said.
00:03:40.750 --> 00:03:41.710
I heard it too.
00:03:42.270 --> 00:03:44.030
Do you think he intended it actually?
00:03:44.349 --> 00:03:45.629
That's later at the night.
00:03:45.789 --> 00:03:48.669
He's beating people with his cane, and later on he's beating them off with his cane.
00:03:48.909 --> 00:03:49.629
Beating their cane.
00:03:49.710 --> 00:03:50.270
Yeah.
00:03:50.590 --> 00:03:53.310
Do you think Anakin's an angry drunk?
00:03:53.870 --> 00:03:54.270
Yes.
00:03:54.590 --> 00:03:55.150
Absolutely.
00:03:55.310 --> 00:03:55.789
Absolutely.
00:03:56.030 --> 00:03:56.750
I think he's an angry.
00:03:57.389 --> 00:03:59.949
Anakin's walking around going, like, just fight me, man.
00:04:00.030 --> 00:04:01.469
Just let's go outside and let's fight.
00:04:01.949 --> 00:04:04.750
Obi Wan's like, I love you so much.
00:04:05.710 --> 00:04:09.150
Like, but like, like it is a brother, man.
00:04:09.229 --> 00:04:14.109
Like, his world is so you just like a little kid that I'm tattooing.
00:04:14.270 --> 00:04:16.669
I don't, because I was on the fucking ship doing fuck all.
00:04:16.909 --> 00:04:18.750
But like, we were it was good days, man.
00:04:18.829 --> 00:04:20.990
And Anakin's like, you calling me Lil?
00:04:22.430 --> 00:04:23.629
You calling me Lil, right?
00:04:24.110 --> 00:04:26.350
It's taller than you, Elon McGregor.
00:04:26.990 --> 00:04:28.110
No, no, no, Anakin.
00:04:28.430 --> 00:04:29.710
I'm not Ewon McGregor.
00:04:30.189 --> 00:04:32.350
You're Ewon, you're Ewan McGregor.
00:04:32.669 --> 00:04:32.990
Okay.
00:04:33.230 --> 00:04:34.829
You telling me I'm wrong.
00:04:41.470 --> 00:04:47.389
Like the left side of his face, the eyes all dilated and droopy and just drunk as shit, and then the right half's just like, this is probably.
00:04:47.789 --> 00:04:48.430
So he's had a straw.
00:04:49.389 --> 00:04:51.149
I don't think we should be doing this.
00:04:51.389 --> 00:04:53.870
But we should have another shot while we're at it.
00:04:54.110 --> 00:04:55.149
So last time we played.
00:04:55.389 --> 00:04:56.509
A lot of things happened.
00:04:56.750 --> 00:04:58.509
A lot of things happened.
00:04:58.750 --> 00:05:00.110
It was a very long episode.
00:05:00.269 --> 00:05:00.509
Yeah.
00:05:00.670 --> 00:05:06.589
You guys navigated your way across Alderon and into the Nexus estate.
00:05:08.829 --> 00:05:13.870
There was a bit of a confrontation in the boilerslash generator room between Kanari and Dalen.
00:05:14.990 --> 00:05:19.069
You got to listen to Credo spend an hour describing the family bar.
00:05:19.310 --> 00:05:20.990
That was awesome on the way to it.
00:05:22.430 --> 00:05:24.509
There was mention of a chandelier early.
00:05:25.469 --> 00:05:31.790
You guys kind of split the party and uh K-Rock stayed behind and ran into the hound.
00:05:32.589 --> 00:05:35.870
We got into a little fight, and I know I'm missing a bunch, so you guys are free to fill in.
00:05:36.509 --> 00:05:38.269
I think we had a good conversation, can I?
00:05:38.430 --> 00:05:41.389
Yeah, you guys had a had a healthy working out of feelings.
00:05:41.709 --> 00:05:43.149
We got into a fight.
00:05:43.790 --> 00:05:48.430
Jalen may or may not have just like killed someone.
00:05:48.910 --> 00:05:50.910
Disarmed an enemy combatant.
00:05:51.310 --> 00:05:53.149
Just a casual war crime.
00:05:53.389 --> 00:05:57.310
I I feel like you're coming around though, right?
00:06:00.110 --> 00:06:00.829
You get him in.
00:06:01.230 --> 00:06:01.629
You get it.
00:06:01.870 --> 00:06:02.589
You get him in?
00:06:02.829 --> 00:06:03.069
Yeah.
00:06:04.189 --> 00:06:08.029
Okay, so Molly is being held in a secure location.
00:06:08.189 --> 00:06:11.389
You guys are on your way towards where Talon is at.
00:06:11.629 --> 00:06:16.269
Are you guys gonna stick with Credo or you guys gonna split again?
00:06:16.670 --> 00:06:19.069
Do we see the hound in this situation?
00:06:19.310 --> 00:06:20.990
Like Hounds with me passed.
00:06:21.389 --> 00:06:24.990
I'm gonna you split off as other hound, so we don't genuinely know that.
00:06:25.389 --> 00:06:31.069
At this very moment, we know the information we have is that the hound is with Talon.
00:06:31.550 --> 00:06:32.350
Okay, yeah.
00:06:33.149 --> 00:06:37.870
So we made the decision to go after Talon because of that.
00:06:38.670 --> 00:06:41.069
Do we know where to expect your father?
00:06:41.469 --> 00:06:42.990
He'll be in the throne room.
00:06:44.670 --> 00:06:47.949
And his father's ways in and all out.
00:06:50.750 --> 00:06:52.910
We know the layout of this place pretty well.
00:06:55.069 --> 00:06:58.189
At least as well as the lighting and decorations.
00:06:58.509 --> 00:07:03.709
I mean, it's been a while since I've been here, but you know.
00:08:07.870 --> 00:08:08.509
Shall we?
00:08:09.069 --> 00:08:12.189
So we're we're walking into the throne room like we own the place.
00:08:12.430 --> 00:08:13.469
I'm so fucking excited.
00:08:13.709 --> 00:08:14.670
This is a terrible idea.
00:08:14.750 --> 00:08:15.310
I love it.
00:08:15.550 --> 00:08:18.110
So you guys make your way to the throne room.
00:08:18.430 --> 00:08:19.949
Who what is the marching order?
00:08:20.029 --> 00:08:21.790
Who's opening the doors to the throne room?
00:08:22.110 --> 00:08:22.670
I will.
00:08:22.990 --> 00:08:25.550
It's probably smarter than you do, but is it double?
00:08:25.709 --> 00:08:26.750
Do you want to keep your eyes on me?
00:08:26.829 --> 00:08:27.469
I have no idea.
00:08:27.709 --> 00:08:28.509
It is double doors.
00:08:28.670 --> 00:08:29.709
Maybe we could both just do it.
00:08:29.870 --> 00:08:30.430
Yeah.
00:08:31.389 --> 00:08:34.190
We both just push them open at the same time.
00:08:34.509 --> 00:08:35.309
Yeah, 100%.
00:08:35.950 --> 00:08:48.269
You push open the double doors, and you will find that this throne room is a stark contrast to Alderon's usual elegance, where Alderon's monarchist traditionally favors openness, light, diplomacy.
00:08:48.509 --> 00:08:51.789
Talon's seat of power is designed to intimidate, to control.
00:08:53.149 --> 00:08:58.589
This room is long and angular, carved from dark stone, quarried from remote mountains of the planet.
00:08:58.829 --> 00:09:05.870
Smooth obsidian floors reflect cold, flickering torchlight mixed with hidden recessed panels emitting a sterile white glow.
00:09:06.110 --> 00:09:17.710
Tall, narrow windows stretch toward the high vaulted ceiling, but instead of showcasing Alderon's lush beauty, they are framed in black iron and heavily tinted, casting the chamber in a perpetual twilight.
00:09:18.509 --> 00:09:25.630
Massive banners of deep crimson hang on the walls bearing Talon's personal sigil, a stylized black hawk clutching a crown.
00:09:25.869 --> 00:09:32.829
Rows of silent sovereign blade guards line the hall, their armors polished to a sheen, their visors blank and soulless.
00:09:33.309 --> 00:09:42.910
The air is heavy with a faint scent of burnt ozone left over from the constant energy shield calibrations and weapon discharges during training drills held too close to the palace's heart.
00:09:43.630 --> 00:09:50.029
At the far end of the hall sits Talon's throne, a brutalist creation of black Durasteel and sculpted bone-white inlays.
00:09:50.190 --> 00:09:55.309
It rises several feet above the floor, accessible by a wide but harsh series of ascending steps.
00:09:55.549 --> 00:10:04.670
The throne itself is less a seat of comfort and more of a commanding perch, designed so Talon can look down on all who enter, framed by a looming half-circle of jagged blades.
00:10:05.789 --> 00:10:16.029
Above the throne, a massive circular skylight reveals an overcast sky of Alderon, but the glass is laced with intricate cracks as if the heavens themselves are about to shatter under Talon's reign.
00:10:16.349 --> 00:10:17.549
How many were there again?
00:10:17.789 --> 00:10:18.430
Twelve.
00:10:18.670 --> 00:10:30.829
So shouting kind of just to the general room and taking some of what Kanari has been politely reminding me of, I want to give these guards a chance.
00:10:32.349 --> 00:10:35.309
So I'm gonna just addressing the whole room.
00:10:36.029 --> 00:10:43.869
For all those who take up arms here, I'm sure that you were seduced to serve under a senator.
00:10:44.349 --> 00:10:47.470
But Talenexis is accused of treason.
00:10:47.630 --> 00:10:52.190
And if you stand with him, his crimes fall on you.
00:10:53.230 --> 00:11:00.670
You will answer to the Republic and the Jedi Order, and we are their emissaries.
00:11:01.390 --> 00:11:02.990
Leave this place now.
00:11:03.710 --> 00:11:06.029
Make a persuasion check?
00:11:06.269 --> 00:11:08.029
Ooh, it's gonna be high.
00:11:08.349 --> 00:11:09.069
29.
00:11:09.549 --> 00:11:11.069
Would you like to spend a force point?
00:11:11.309 --> 00:11:11.789
Interesting.
00:11:11.950 --> 00:11:13.789
It's an interesting question.
00:11:15.150 --> 00:11:20.109
Because part of me doesn't really give a shit if I convince them.
00:11:21.789 --> 00:11:23.710
No, I'm not going to spend a force point.
00:11:23.950 --> 00:11:25.470
None of them will move from their spot.
00:11:25.630 --> 00:11:28.029
They do not even turn their heads to look at you.
00:11:29.150 --> 00:11:30.430
So be it.
00:11:31.789 --> 00:11:33.390
And Talon's here, right?
00:11:33.710 --> 00:11:35.230
He is sitting on his throne.
00:11:35.309 --> 00:11:40.029
He's wearing crimson armor that has his sigil on the shoulder blades.
00:11:40.190 --> 00:11:42.670
There's a half cape coming off of his left shoulder.
00:11:42.829 --> 00:11:47.150
He is wearing a helmet that is um in the shape of a hawk's head.
00:11:47.549 --> 00:11:48.430
Oh, god damn it.
00:11:48.589 --> 00:11:51.549
So I'm going to ignite my lightsaber and turn to Kanari.
00:11:53.549 --> 00:11:55.069
Do you want to try?
00:11:55.309 --> 00:11:57.950
We seek counsel with Talon.
00:11:59.470 --> 00:12:01.630
We wish to speak for now.
00:12:02.430 --> 00:13:44.809
And I will ignite my lightsaber as well.
00:13:45.130 --> 00:13:46.329
Then speak.
00:13:47.529 --> 00:13:51.289
But take another step further, and these guards will gun you down.
00:13:52.009 --> 00:13:54.890
Unless you would like to hand over your lightsabers.
00:13:55.289 --> 00:13:56.809
I would rather not.
00:13:58.089 --> 00:13:59.610
Where is Malia?
00:14:00.650 --> 00:14:03.289
We know you are using her against us.
00:14:04.170 --> 00:14:05.849
What have you done to her?
00:14:06.170 --> 00:14:08.490
She is where she was always meant to be.
00:14:08.809 --> 00:14:11.610
Lies! She is a Jedi.
00:14:13.289 --> 00:14:15.370
She does not belong to you.
00:14:16.809 --> 00:14:19.529
I've seen how you treat your children.
00:14:19.849 --> 00:14:22.250
And the Jedi are so much better?
00:14:22.730 --> 00:14:26.009
An order that abducts children away from their families?
00:14:26.329 --> 00:14:32.650
An order that teaches them how to do good for the galaxy, rather than tearing it apart.
00:14:32.970 --> 00:14:35.289
I do not seek to tear this galaxy apart.
00:14:35.370 --> 00:14:39.610
I merely seek to set right what has been wronged against my family.
00:14:39.849 --> 00:14:43.289
You've already started to tear this planet apart.
00:14:43.690 --> 00:14:46.009
And it will fall on me to rebuild it.
00:14:46.329 --> 00:14:49.130
What is here does not need to be rebuilt.
00:14:49.450 --> 00:14:50.809
Malia is.
00:14:52.250 --> 00:14:54.009
Let's say she's safe.
00:14:55.289 --> 00:14:57.289
As safe as Namet was?
00:14:57.610 --> 00:15:01.450
Namet was given a choice, and he chose not to be safe.
00:15:01.769 --> 00:15:04.730
Namet chose not to fall in line.
00:15:04.970 --> 00:15:08.089
That is a different choice than you are offering.
00:15:08.329 --> 00:15:11.370
What if behind the line is safety?
00:15:14.009 --> 00:15:16.890
What if behind the line is peace and prosperity?
00:15:17.370 --> 00:15:25.210
You are actively causing derision within the galaxy by joining the separatist, and you claim to speak of unity.
00:15:26.250 --> 00:15:29.529
Do you not see the hypocrisy in your own words?
00:15:29.769 --> 00:15:32.490
I see the separatist as a means to an end.
00:15:33.289 --> 00:15:35.370
They're here to support me, not the other way around.
00:15:35.610 --> 00:15:37.930
Your end is power, not peace.
00:15:38.569 --> 00:15:40.890
You showed that by shooting Namet.
00:15:41.289 --> 00:15:43.849
Again, Namet made his choice.
00:15:44.170 --> 00:15:48.250
That boy worships the clink of coin more than the voices that raised him.
00:15:48.809 --> 00:15:49.849
You're right.
00:15:50.730 --> 00:15:52.569
Namet opposed you.
00:15:53.529 --> 00:15:55.289
You saw him as a traitor.
00:15:56.410 --> 00:15:59.690
How do you think the Republic in the Senate see you?
00:16:01.370 --> 00:16:05.930
If your path is truly one to salvation, why hide in the shadows?
00:16:06.170 --> 00:16:10.250
Why pretend to serve as the Senate?
00:16:10.490 --> 00:16:13.130
You know what you're doing is wrong.
00:16:14.250 --> 00:16:17.930
If you're fighting a war for peace, you're doing it like a coward.
00:16:18.970 --> 00:16:22.730
Cowards do not deserve the peace you think you're earning.
00:16:23.529 --> 00:16:25.690
And we will cut away to Credo.
00:16:26.490 --> 00:16:36.250
Credo, while the other two walked into the throne room through the main entrance, you snuck around, and you are now standing in the council chamber that belongs to your father.
00:16:36.809 --> 00:16:38.569
It's just you in the room.
00:16:38.730 --> 00:16:45.769
There's a large table in the center of it, and there are books, both hollow and traditional, that kind of line the walls.
00:16:46.009 --> 00:16:48.970
There is a map of the galaxy that sits on the table.
00:16:49.130 --> 00:16:51.849
It's a three-dimensional map of the galaxy.
00:16:52.089 --> 00:17:01.849
If you wait, the map kind of cycles between the overall map of the galaxy and what appears to be the battle at um Aldera.
00:17:02.170 --> 00:17:02.809
Nice.
00:17:04.970 --> 00:17:08.089
This this hallway leads to the throne room, right?
00:17:08.329 --> 00:17:08.970
Yes.
00:17:09.289 --> 00:17:19.769
I'll make my way to the to the throne room from a secure and discreet location.
00:17:21.370 --> 00:17:22.569
Sneaking up behind him.
00:17:22.730 --> 00:17:26.569
I was just gonna say, I would like to just listen to what's happening.
00:17:26.890 --> 00:17:32.890
So you are picking up on the end of the conversation that Dalen and Kanari were having with Talon.
00:17:33.450 --> 00:17:38.410
The hallway you're at is gonna open up directly behind the throne.
00:17:39.049 --> 00:17:42.170
So if you peek around that corner, you can see the back of the throne.
00:17:42.329 --> 00:17:45.210
You can hear your father's voice coming from the throne.
00:17:45.450 --> 00:17:55.370
And then down the steps, you'll see the six guards on each side, and then at the far end of the room, you can't see them because they're blocked by the throne, but you can hear Dalen and Kanari.
00:17:56.650 --> 00:17:56.970
Okay.
00:17:57.610 --> 00:17:59.610
Oh, give me a stealth check.
00:17:59.930 --> 00:18:00.970
Oh boy.
00:18:02.089 --> 00:18:02.490
Oof.
00:18:02.809 --> 00:18:04.490
I guess maybe he's instigating.
00:18:04.650 --> 00:18:06.410
As a as a 15 Zek.
00:18:07.610 --> 00:18:09.769
That does not pass the 23.
00:18:10.009 --> 00:18:10.329
Oof.
00:18:11.130 --> 00:18:13.529
So you start to peek around.
00:18:14.809 --> 00:18:18.490
Yeah, I mean, you could start force pointing and dark side pointing if you want.
00:18:18.650 --> 00:18:20.410
You need to get what eight?
00:18:20.650 --> 00:18:21.130
Eight?
00:18:22.009 --> 00:18:22.890
You do it.
00:18:23.130 --> 00:18:25.610
You'd have two d6 if you dark sided too.
00:18:30.809 --> 00:18:35.289
So take your dark side point and then roll three d6 and take the highest two.
00:18:36.170 --> 00:18:36.410
Okay.
00:18:36.970 --> 00:18:38.250
Just for simplicity.
00:18:38.809 --> 00:18:39.769
I got the ten.
00:18:41.769 --> 00:18:59.930
So you feel yourself walking a little too quickly, and you stop for a moment, and you think about Talon, and you think about Molly and how he's kidnapped her again and again, and you've been so close to getting her, and now she's still outside of your grasp, and that makes you angry.
00:19:00.970 --> 00:19:06.250
And you focus on that anger and you start to walk a little bit slower until you are behind the throne.
00:19:06.569 --> 00:19:12.009
How how um how directly am I behind the throne?
00:19:12.490 --> 00:19:15.529
Can I see can I see my father?
00:19:15.849 --> 00:19:18.569
You would have to walk around the throne in order to see him.
00:19:18.730 --> 00:19:19.049
Okay.
00:19:19.690 --> 00:19:20.410
Just peek.
00:19:20.569 --> 00:19:22.089
The throne is taller than he is.
00:19:22.410 --> 00:19:28.090
I would like to take off my helmet and place it on the ground.
00:19:31.610 --> 00:19:39.450
I don't want to walk behind Talon and say, Hello, father.
00:19:39.850 --> 00:19:45.289
And I want to s wind up a punch and just hit him.
00:19:46.890 --> 00:19:47.769
As hard as I can.
00:19:48.970 --> 00:19:49.210
Okay.
00:19:49.370 --> 00:19:50.650
So make an attack roll.
00:19:50.890 --> 00:19:51.210
Okay.
00:19:51.450 --> 00:19:55.210
Yeah, see, it's it's a Justin moment, but not the kind we thought.
00:19:55.450 --> 00:19:55.769
Oh!
00:19:56.250 --> 00:19:57.289
Oh, that's fun.
00:19:57.769 --> 00:19:59.130
That's a net one zack.
00:20:01.610 --> 00:20:03.850
Oh, not looking cool right now.
00:20:06.970 --> 00:20:07.690
Oh no.
00:20:08.250 --> 00:20:10.250
Imagine fumbling that hard.
00:20:10.810 --> 00:20:12.650
Do you have a destiny point?
00:20:13.210 --> 00:20:15.690
Um no, I used it.
00:20:17.130 --> 00:20:19.289
I used it last time.
00:20:19.529 --> 00:20:20.250
Yeah, you did.
00:20:20.570 --> 00:20:22.730
So you're doing great, buddy.
00:20:23.050 --> 00:20:24.730
So yeah, you you net one.
00:20:24.970 --> 00:20:27.930
Uh you go to swing and you just you miss.
00:20:28.009 --> 00:20:31.450
He grabs your wrist as you're throwing your punch.
00:20:31.850 --> 00:20:33.690
I wasn't expecting this.
00:20:34.650 --> 00:20:36.250
I thought I killed you.
00:20:36.570 --> 00:20:38.650
And then he's gonna let go of your wrist.
00:20:39.289 --> 00:20:42.090
I bet you weren't expecting a lot of things.
00:20:43.130 --> 00:20:44.890
I want to pull out my blaster.
00:20:45.690 --> 00:20:49.130
And at that point, we're gonna roll initiative.
00:20:49.210 --> 00:20:52.330
But before that battle begins, we will cut back to K-Rock and the Hound.
00:20:52.570 --> 00:20:57.210
So you guys are sitting around one of Namut's favorite oak tables.
00:20:57.529 --> 00:20:59.450
Could you tell us about the table, Namet?
00:21:01.529 --> 00:21:02.810
It's very wood.
00:21:03.210 --> 00:21:04.410
That's enough, thank you.
00:21:07.610 --> 00:21:08.090
Uh-huh.
00:21:08.250 --> 00:21:12.090
And Eneb is shuffling the deck of cards.
00:21:12.410 --> 00:21:15.610
I appreciate you shuffling up for us, Eneb.
00:21:15.930 --> 00:21:19.610
It's been a little hard to shuffle since our last game.
00:21:20.009 --> 00:21:21.289
Careful, Kirock.
00:21:21.450 --> 00:21:23.930
Lose this one, and you'll be playing cards with your teeth.
00:21:24.170 --> 00:21:25.450
Oh, don't worry, Enab.
00:21:25.690 --> 00:21:27.050
My tail's mighty flexible.
00:21:27.130 --> 00:21:27.930
I'll be fine.
00:21:28.170 --> 00:21:31.529
Plus, it'll give you something easy to kiss when I win.
00:21:32.090 --> 00:21:36.570
The hound is going to say, I'm glad you came back for another hand.
00:21:36.810 --> 00:21:38.490
I hope you brought a spare this time.
00:21:38.810 --> 00:21:41.690
I did bring one, but I guess I should have brought two.
00:21:42.250 --> 00:21:46.170
And Enab is going to shuffle out the cards.
00:21:46.410 --> 00:21:47.850
Or pass out the cards.
00:21:48.090 --> 00:21:49.769
So let's start with your turn then.
00:21:50.090 --> 00:21:50.410
Okay.
00:21:51.529 --> 00:21:59.130
So Q-Rock raises up uh one card and puts it in the stasis field, and then I trade out uh a card.
00:21:59.210 --> 00:22:01.370
I deal one in to get traded out.
00:22:01.690 --> 00:22:07.529
And uh I think I'll put down 200 credits and pass.
00:22:11.130 --> 00:22:14.650
So it's been a while since we last saw each other.
00:23:43.810 --> 00:23:45.250
How have we all been?
00:23:45.810 --> 00:23:50.690
We've been raking in the credits, pulling a good job as always.
00:23:51.009 --> 00:23:56.610
I see you made it back to her in one piece, and then no thanks to you, but yes.
00:23:56.930 --> 00:24:00.289
Oh, don't tell me you didn't enjoy our time together.
00:24:00.850 --> 00:24:05.490
I get to think of a lot of other people I would rather spend time with than you.
00:24:05.810 --> 00:24:09.170
Well, your wife can I have to admit though, your crew can fly.
00:24:09.490 --> 00:24:10.769
Oh I thank you.
00:24:11.090 --> 00:24:14.610
Our uh our good buddy Nam that's one hell of a pilot.
00:24:15.009 --> 00:24:20.450
Now, your uh your your lady over here didn't seem too eager to get you back.
00:24:20.529 --> 00:24:23.810
I'm sure there's been a little bit of tension since you've been home.
00:24:24.610 --> 00:24:26.050
Make a persuasion.
00:24:26.769 --> 00:24:29.410
As you kind of try to chip away at their bond.
00:24:29.730 --> 00:24:31.009
I've been playing too much Fallout.
00:24:31.170 --> 00:24:32.529
I almost grabbed two.
00:24:33.490 --> 00:24:34.130
18?
00:24:34.529 --> 00:24:36.850
Yeah, I'll spend a force point, yeah.
00:24:37.570 --> 00:24:39.730
They're both four, so that puts me at twenty.
00:24:40.130 --> 00:24:41.009
And I'll take a dark side.
00:24:41.090 --> 00:24:41.330
Fuck it.
00:24:41.410 --> 00:24:43.090
So I'm at twenty-two, twenty-seven.
00:24:43.410 --> 00:24:49.570
You see them look at each other, and Annep does appear to be a little miffed, a little pissed off.
00:24:49.890 --> 00:24:51.170
Oh, I'm sorry.
00:24:51.410 --> 00:24:52.450
She's going to.
00:24:52.930 --> 00:24:59.090
She's gonna place a card in the interference field, place down another card, and then switch out at a third card.
00:24:59.330 --> 00:25:04.690
She will throw down the 200 credits, then throw down 800 more.
00:25:06.050 --> 00:25:11.970
I have the utmost trust in Edeb that he can take care of himself.
00:25:12.210 --> 00:25:13.570
Clearly, I was right.
00:25:13.810 --> 00:25:14.690
You're right.
00:25:14.850 --> 00:25:17.730
Your man did mighty fine holding the zone.
00:25:17.890 --> 00:25:20.289
His lips were sealed real shut.
00:25:20.450 --> 00:25:23.090
I'm gonna like be sarcastic about it like that.
00:25:23.250 --> 00:25:25.810
I can't remember if he actually leaked anything, but I'm gonna be just giving.
00:25:27.810 --> 00:25:37.730
Um I'm gonna lock in uh two more cards to the stasis field, and I'm gonna go, man, 800 more credits.
00:25:37.890 --> 00:25:43.250
I can't say I've had the same share of wealth and luck that you two seem to have had.
00:25:43.730 --> 00:25:50.450
I do have the triple seven, and it's a jackpot of a gun, and I think it probably can equate.
00:25:51.170 --> 00:25:55.330
I'm gonna set the triple seven down to match the anti here.
00:25:55.810 --> 00:25:58.050
You think luck's a game, G-Rock?
00:25:58.370 --> 00:25:58.690
Me?
00:25:59.330 --> 00:26:00.769
I make my own odds.
00:26:00.930 --> 00:26:03.810
And then she's gonna pull out her rifle and set it on the table.
00:26:04.130 --> 00:26:05.490
Anticorpses.
00:26:07.410 --> 00:26:08.050
Well.
00:26:08.690 --> 00:26:11.490
Uh, I believe that's the end of the round here.
00:26:11.570 --> 00:26:14.529
I've locked in my cards if you've locked in yours.
00:26:15.009 --> 00:26:17.090
It does computer that way.
00:26:17.410 --> 00:26:18.450
What do you have?
00:26:18.690 --> 00:26:20.289
And she'll flip over her cards.
00:26:20.529 --> 00:26:20.769
Well.
00:26:21.009 --> 00:26:22.370
And they're very good.
00:26:22.529 --> 00:26:23.570
I think she's at a 20.
00:26:23.890 --> 00:26:25.009
Let's say a 21.
00:26:26.210 --> 00:26:26.930
Twenty-one?
00:26:27.730 --> 00:26:33.410
That's gonna be a mighty hard debate, especially when all I've got is this jackpot.
00:26:33.570 --> 00:26:34.930
I'm gonna flip my hand over.
00:26:35.650 --> 00:26:36.610
And what is it?
00:26:36.850 --> 00:26:38.210
Uh it's just a dead hand.
00:26:38.289 --> 00:26:40.529
It's probably like nine altogether.
00:26:40.850 --> 00:26:46.210
So she'll stand up and she's gonna look over the table, look down at your cards.
00:26:46.690 --> 00:26:48.289
That's not a jackpot.
00:26:48.529 --> 00:26:51.890
And then I go, Well, no, that's not a jackpot.
00:26:52.210 --> 00:26:52.690
This is.
00:26:53.170 --> 00:27:06.130
Um, and it's at this moment uh I flash a big toothy smile, and then I point the jackpot with my good arm that's fully grown and back to normal, may I add, uh, up against the underside of the table, and I'm gonna shoot her.
00:27:06.370 --> 00:27:10.610
I'm also gonna use my destiny point to perform a triple crit on her.
00:27:10.930 --> 00:27:25.650
Yes, buddy! So I roll 3d4s, uh, that's gonna be three fours, and then I'm gonna add eight to that for 20 times by three for 60 damage to the hound's chest, hopefully ripping her in half so I don't have to deal with the outcome.
00:27:25.890 --> 00:27:26.529
Jesus Christ.
00:27:26.610 --> 00:27:28.610
I don't think we've ever done that much damage, have we?
00:27:28.930 --> 00:27:29.970
I've never come close.
00:27:30.210 --> 00:27:30.769
I don't think so.
00:27:30.930 --> 00:27:33.970
I think Talon did to 69 guys.
00:27:34.130 --> 00:27:34.529
Yeah, free down.
00:27:37.810 --> 00:27:39.090
Oh, yeah, it was 69.
00:27:41.090 --> 00:27:42.130
It was great.
00:27:42.529 --> 00:27:43.250
Perfect.
00:27:43.490 --> 00:27:43.810
Great.
00:27:43.890 --> 00:27:48.529
A reminder that the guy we're about to fight is a little bit tougher than the hardest hit we've ever pulled.
00:27:49.090 --> 00:27:49.890
Just a little.
00:27:50.370 --> 00:27:55.650
So you hit this blaster bolt hits her square in the chest, and there's a giant circle in her armor now.
00:27:56.610 --> 00:28:03.810
And Eb immediately shouts, no! And he's not gonna look at you, he's just gonna rush to her as she falls over on the floor.
00:28:04.050 --> 00:28:12.130
I'm gonna stand up, blow the smoke off the jackpot or whatever, steam, whatever would be emanating from a uh laser weapon.
00:28:12.289 --> 00:28:13.650
Um, I'm gonna go.
00:28:14.690 --> 00:28:17.090
See, that's what I call a jackpot.
00:28:17.410 --> 00:28:20.289
And I think our score is settled now.
00:28:20.610 --> 00:28:22.370
An arm for an arm.
00:28:22.690 --> 00:28:26.050
We are cutting back to the throne room where battle is breaking out.
00:28:26.289 --> 00:28:27.970
Who is first in the initiative order?
00:28:28.210 --> 00:28:31.250
Uh interestingly enough, it is Credo.
00:28:31.570 --> 00:28:37.410
But I also didn't want to take away from Credo's moment, but I have my improved quick draw.
00:28:37.730 --> 00:28:42.050
Oh so I'm gonna come at one of the guards really quick.
00:28:42.289 --> 00:28:43.410
You should attack me instead.
00:28:44.769 --> 00:28:46.210
We did the same guy.
00:28:49.650 --> 00:28:51.090
That's one way to make plays, brother.
00:28:51.410 --> 00:28:51.890
As I said it.
00:28:52.050 --> 00:28:52.690
One love, guys.
00:28:54.690 --> 00:28:57.009
Um one guard knows it's coming.
00:28:57.250 --> 00:28:58.450
Jesus Christ.
00:28:59.170 --> 00:28:59.970
I would hope so.
00:29:00.210 --> 00:29:01.170
Jason Bourne.
00:29:03.410 --> 00:29:04.450
It's a nat one.
00:29:04.690 --> 00:29:04.930
Yeah.
00:29:05.570 --> 00:29:06.850
Oh my god, get it out of the way, guys.
00:29:07.009 --> 00:29:08.769
Okay, everybody get yours out of the way.
00:29:09.970 --> 00:29:11.570
Describe your nat one for me.
00:29:11.730 --> 00:29:21.650
Um I think I start charging at them and I trip over one of the ornately picked rugs that Talon has, and I fall to the ground.
00:29:21.890 --> 00:29:22.610
God damn it.
00:29:22.769 --> 00:29:23.730
You guys are good at this.
00:29:23.890 --> 00:29:24.370
Oh yeah.
00:29:24.610 --> 00:29:26.050
We're literally professionals.
00:29:26.130 --> 00:29:27.890
And then we'll move over to Justin.
00:29:28.130 --> 00:29:28.370
Oh.
00:29:30.930 --> 00:29:33.650
Oh no, I'm gonna point my blaster at him.
00:29:33.970 --> 00:29:35.090
No more surprises.
00:29:35.490 --> 00:29:36.450
Everyone's a 20.
00:29:36.769 --> 00:29:37.570
26.
00:29:38.690 --> 00:29:40.850
But I don't think that's gonna hit him.
00:29:41.490 --> 00:29:43.090
So I'm gonna use a force point.
00:29:43.170 --> 00:29:43.890
You get two.
00:29:44.130 --> 00:29:45.170
You choose the highest.
00:29:45.330 --> 00:29:46.610
That makes it a 30.
00:29:46.769 --> 00:29:48.289
There's a 32 hit.
00:29:48.529 --> 00:29:51.570
A 32 surpasses his reflex of 30.
00:29:51.730 --> 00:29:53.650
Oh, he's a beast.
00:29:54.210 --> 00:29:54.529
Okay.
00:29:54.850 --> 00:30:01.090
Um, I got a six, a three, that's a nine, that's a ten, plus four, fourteen.
00:30:01.410 --> 00:30:01.890
14.
00:30:02.130 --> 00:30:02.370
Okay.
00:30:02.529 --> 00:30:03.330
Sweet.
00:30:04.130 --> 00:30:09.090
So you walk up, swing at him, miss, and then pull out a blaster and shoot him.
00:30:09.410 --> 00:30:11.410
You're gonna hit him in his rib cage.
00:30:12.289 --> 00:30:13.250
Excellent.
00:30:13.570 --> 00:30:14.210
Yeah.
00:30:14.529 --> 00:30:15.490
Alright.
00:30:15.970 --> 00:30:17.250
That means it's me.
00:30:17.490 --> 00:30:25.250
Is the throne on like is this just like a long carpeted walkway and he's at the end on a throne, or was did I miss I thought I heard something about elevation.
00:30:25.490 --> 00:30:26.210
There is elevation.
00:30:26.289 --> 00:30:28.850
There he is up a set of stairs or set of steps.
00:30:29.090 --> 00:30:36.769
Is that are the stairs leading directly to the throne, or is it like side staircases that lead up to like a raised platform that he's on overlooking us?
00:30:37.090 --> 00:30:40.370
It's like a half circle that goes to a platform above.
00:30:40.690 --> 00:30:43.009
Pretty much picture um like the Iron Throne.
00:30:43.170 --> 00:30:43.890
Okay, cool.
00:30:44.050 --> 00:30:55.410
Um then seeing Kanari fall down on his charge, I am going to turn and force slam all of the guards in that direction.
00:30:55.570 --> 00:30:58.370
Um using my, what is it called?
00:30:58.610 --> 00:31:04.850
Disciplined strike to ignore targets up to target number of targets up to my wisdom modifier.
00:31:04.930 --> 00:31:09.890
So I'm not gonna have it hit Kanari, but I'm gonna try to force slam all the guards that he was running towards.
00:31:09.970 --> 00:31:12.610
Or at least whatever side you were running towards, I don't actually know.
00:31:12.850 --> 00:31:17.009
Um so it is a 30-foot cone.
00:31:17.810 --> 00:31:20.130
So if I need to get closer to them, I will.
00:31:20.289 --> 00:31:21.730
Um, but I want to try to hit it.
00:31:22.210 --> 00:31:26.850
So with a 30-foot cone, if you get into melee with one of them, you can knock three of them down.
00:31:27.090 --> 00:31:28.529
Okay, I'll do that then.
00:31:28.690 --> 00:31:33.330
So then I am going to roll a use the force check.
00:31:34.690 --> 00:31:43.410
And as I'm I'm running towards them with my lightsaber drawn, you should have stand down! And I'm going to force slam.
00:31:46.529 --> 00:31:47.410
Brother.
00:31:47.730 --> 00:31:49.170
Don't tell me you two.
00:31:50.210 --> 00:31:51.650
Don't don't say it.
00:31:52.450 --> 00:31:53.730
I didn't do it.
00:31:55.410 --> 00:31:56.529
How how much?
00:31:56.769 --> 00:31:58.210
I joined the club, okay?
00:31:58.289 --> 00:31:59.570
Are you happy to hear it?
00:31:59.810 --> 00:32:02.370
Okay, but it is a skill check.
00:32:02.769 --> 00:32:03.890
Oh, interesting.
00:32:04.130 --> 00:32:06.850
Is a gnat wanna fail and I use the force check here?
00:32:07.170 --> 00:32:07.810
Oh no.
00:32:07.970 --> 00:32:08.289
Yes.
00:32:08.610 --> 00:32:09.250
Damn it.
00:32:09.490 --> 00:32:11.090
So I did not succeed.
00:32:11.330 --> 00:32:15.570
I'm so scared to roll a die to roll a singular die again this session.
00:32:15.810 --> 00:32:18.050
I'm so glad you use the destiny point.
00:32:18.289 --> 00:32:21.090
So, uh force slam.
00:32:22.370 --> 00:32:25.009
And it just whiffs over them.
00:32:25.170 --> 00:32:28.850
A gent they're they are refreshed by a gentle breeze.
00:32:29.810 --> 00:32:31.650
Does anything happen on the fail?
00:32:31.890 --> 00:32:32.370
Let's see.
00:32:32.529 --> 00:32:34.370
Like, do they take half damage and they stay up?
00:32:34.610 --> 00:32:38.930
If the result equals or exceeds the target's defense, it takes 4d6 points of force damage is knocked prone.
00:32:39.170 --> 00:32:42.610
Oh, if it's less than their defense, it does take half damage, it is not knocked prone.
00:32:42.769 --> 00:32:44.370
Oh, so actually do something.
00:32:44.610 --> 00:32:45.890
Good good save.
00:32:46.130 --> 00:32:48.289
Um, so 4d6 divided by two.
00:32:48.610 --> 00:32:50.850
So 18, so that's nine damage.
00:32:51.009 --> 00:32:52.769
So it's more than a gentle breeze.
00:32:52.930 --> 00:33:01.250
So with my turnover, Kanari, you just watch as I rage past you and just kind of give them a soft slap of wind.
00:33:01.570 --> 00:33:02.289
Alright.
00:33:02.529 --> 00:33:05.490
I'm gonna use half my movement to stand up.
00:33:05.810 --> 00:33:07.250
And how far away are they?
00:33:07.330 --> 00:33:10.370
Are they uh close enough where I can get to them or no?
00:33:10.610 --> 00:33:12.050
You could yeah, you could get to them.
00:33:12.289 --> 00:33:17.810
Okay, I'm gonna get in the melee with the ones close to Dalen.
00:33:18.690 --> 00:33:21.730
And I am going to attack one of them.
00:33:22.610 --> 00:33:23.330
It's not a one.
00:33:23.730 --> 00:33:24.850
27 to hit.
00:33:25.090 --> 00:33:28.610
A 27 will not surpass the reflex of 28.
00:33:28.850 --> 00:33:29.650
You're fucking kidding.
00:33:29.730 --> 00:33:30.690
I'm gonna spend a force.
00:33:31.330 --> 00:33:32.289
Fuck this.
00:33:33.890 --> 00:33:36.690
So you will automatically succeed then.
00:33:37.330 --> 00:33:38.930
19 damage to the first one.
00:33:39.250 --> 00:33:39.650
Yeah.
00:33:39.890 --> 00:33:41.170
This is nice.
00:33:41.490 --> 00:33:46.050
And then I'm I can't double attack, so that's going to be my turn for.
00:33:47.490 --> 00:33:48.130
Yep.
00:33:49.090 --> 00:33:52.130
Alright, after Kanari, Talon gets a chance.
00:33:52.769 --> 00:33:59.570
Talon is going to take a beat and then look up to Credo.
00:34:01.250 --> 00:34:06.930
That gloved hand resting on the armrest is gonna tighten into like a white knuckle fist.
00:34:08.130 --> 00:34:08.449
No.
00:34:09.409 --> 00:34:10.769
You're dead.
00:34:11.489 --> 00:34:13.010
I mourned you.
00:34:13.570 --> 00:34:16.130
I waged a war in your name.
00:34:16.850 --> 00:34:19.810
And he will stand up from his throne?
00:34:22.050 --> 00:34:24.130
You dare stand before me?
00:34:24.449 --> 00:34:28.449
Alive and condemn all that I've built?
00:34:28.769 --> 00:34:29.970
You were my son.
00:34:30.690 --> 00:34:32.449
And you abandoned me.
00:34:33.329 --> 00:34:35.010
You betrayed me.
00:34:37.730 --> 00:34:43.810
You're no son of mine, just another liar, another tool of the queen's corruption.
00:34:44.210 --> 00:34:52.289
I will tear you down with my hands, and he will leap at you with his hands going towards your neck.
00:34:54.130 --> 00:34:55.329
You're getting a beat down.
00:34:55.570 --> 00:34:57.329
Oh, you want to play like this?
00:34:57.970 --> 00:35:00.610
Triple crit chokes you unconscious.
00:35:01.970 --> 00:35:02.930
Jesus.
00:35:03.650 --> 00:35:05.250
He's going feral on his own.
00:35:08.210 --> 00:35:09.970
26 against your reflex?
00:35:10.289 --> 00:35:11.170
This is a miss.
00:35:11.489 --> 00:35:11.810
Oh.
00:35:13.250 --> 00:35:14.210
What's your reflex?
00:35:14.369 --> 00:35:15.090
30.
00:35:15.409 --> 00:35:16.050
Holy shit.
00:35:16.289 --> 00:35:17.570
She will spend a force point.
00:35:17.970 --> 00:35:18.289
Oh.
00:35:20.369 --> 00:35:22.289
I see where you got it from.
00:35:22.930 --> 00:35:23.329
Jesus.
00:35:23.650 --> 00:35:24.690
Holy shit.
00:35:27.409 --> 00:35:28.369
That's ominous.
00:35:28.610 --> 00:35:29.730
What's your reflex?
00:35:31.090 --> 00:35:31.890
25.
00:35:32.850 --> 00:35:34.850
It'll be a 32 against your reflex.
00:35:34.930 --> 00:35:35.409
That's it.
00:35:36.369 --> 00:35:42.210
He will wrap his hands around your throat, and he will deal 15 damage.
00:35:43.809 --> 00:35:44.610
Jesus.
00:35:45.409 --> 00:35:46.449
That'll be the end of his turn.
00:35:46.690 --> 00:35:46.929
I guess.
00:35:47.250 --> 00:35:47.489
Force.
00:35:47.889 --> 00:35:57.730
On the force's turn, you see through that window above the throne that the sky has almost gone black, and you see a flash of lightning.
00:35:58.690 --> 00:36:04.690
And Dalen, you feel the agonizing presence of Malia somewhere distant.
00:36:05.489 --> 00:36:06.130
Fuck.
00:36:06.769 --> 00:36:08.210
We need to hurry up.
00:36:08.369 --> 00:36:10.130
She's not safe, Kanari.
00:36:10.449 --> 00:36:13.329
And after the force, we'll move over to these sovereign blades.
00:36:13.730 --> 00:36:19.009
So all 12 of them are going to spend their swift actions to activate their energy shields.
00:36:19.250 --> 00:36:20.130
That's not what you're saying.
00:36:20.289 --> 00:36:24.369
So they all effectively gain 15 hit points.
00:36:24.690 --> 00:36:26.050
That's so cool.
00:36:27.329 --> 00:36:28.849
That's so sick, man.
00:36:30.050 --> 00:36:30.929
Oh boy.
00:36:31.250 --> 00:36:34.690
Those three are all gonna surround Kanari and attack.
00:36:34.929 --> 00:36:36.369
I need that animated now.
00:36:37.170 --> 00:36:38.289
That's fair.
00:36:38.529 --> 00:36:38.849
Yes.
00:36:39.170 --> 00:36:40.210
Come at me, bro.
00:36:42.210 --> 00:36:44.289
Are they gonna try and slice me?
00:36:45.170 --> 00:36:45.730
Yes.
00:36:45.889 --> 00:36:46.690
No, yes.
00:36:46.769 --> 00:36:49.090
They're gonna pull out Vibroblades and try and attack you.
00:36:49.329 --> 00:36:50.210
I can block though.
00:36:50.289 --> 00:36:50.610
Yep.
00:36:52.130 --> 00:36:53.570
First one's a 36.
00:36:55.090 --> 00:36:55.650
Damn.
00:36:55.969 --> 00:36:56.210
Sorry.
00:36:57.090 --> 00:36:57.730
38.
00:36:57.889 --> 00:36:58.369
Oh damn.
00:36:58.690 --> 00:37:01.329
I will hit, but I will try to block that.
00:37:01.650 --> 00:37:06.690
Also, canonically in my head, when you're in combat, the hustle is now the song that plays.
00:37:06.929 --> 00:37:08.050
Do the hustle!
00:37:10.610 --> 00:37:15.009
I'm gonna take that one and try to block something that's more attainable.
00:37:15.889 --> 00:37:16.210
Okay.
00:37:16.929 --> 00:37:17.969
Good strategy.
00:37:20.289 --> 00:37:22.130
Because they get harder each time.
00:37:22.369 --> 00:37:22.610
Ah.
00:37:23.009 --> 00:37:27.570
So that first one, that first blade's gonna come at you and deal 16 damage.
00:37:27.889 --> 00:37:31.730
The second one is a 33 against your reflex.
00:37:32.529 --> 00:37:34.130
A little more reasonable.
00:37:37.650 --> 00:37:40.289
I'm gonna try and block that one.
00:37:40.529 --> 00:37:41.809
That's not happening.
00:37:42.050 --> 00:37:44.529
That one's gonna hit you for 28 damage.
00:37:44.849 --> 00:37:45.730
Oh no.
00:37:46.610 --> 00:37:48.050
He rolled really well.
00:37:49.250 --> 00:37:49.969
28.
00:37:50.449 --> 00:37:55.170
And I don't know why I'm trying to do that.
00:37:57.570 --> 00:38:00.450
And the last one at you will be a 30 against a reflex.
00:38:01.010 --> 00:38:01.170
Okay.
00:38:01.970 --> 00:38:03.090
I got something better to do.
00:38:03.170 --> 00:38:03.490
Yeah.
00:38:04.450 --> 00:38:05.490
27.
00:38:07.010 --> 00:38:13.010
Um Dark side point.
00:38:16.690 --> 00:38:17.889
Dark side point.
00:38:18.289 --> 00:38:20.530
I can just try a force point here though.
00:38:20.849 --> 00:38:23.090
And if that's not enough, Kanari.
00:38:23.570 --> 00:38:24.210
What the hell?
00:38:24.369 --> 00:38:25.650
What does that do for your reflex?
00:38:26.769 --> 00:38:29.250
What when the what do you do when the Dark Lord takes back to the city?
00:38:29.329 --> 00:38:29.970
Oh, for your block.
00:38:30.130 --> 00:38:30.530
Got it.
00:38:31.329 --> 00:38:33.329
Five plus twenty seven.
00:38:33.570 --> 00:38:34.369
Thirty-two.
00:38:35.889 --> 00:38:36.369
35.
00:38:37.170 --> 00:38:37.490
30.
00:38:38.050 --> 00:38:38.610
30.
00:38:38.849 --> 00:38:42.530
The other nine are all going to take the dodge action or fight defensively.
00:38:42.690 --> 00:38:44.289
To get a bonus to their reflex.
00:38:44.610 --> 00:38:46.450
And moving over to Credo.
00:38:46.690 --> 00:38:47.010
Okay.
00:38:47.170 --> 00:38:48.849
I imagine we're on the ground.
00:38:49.090 --> 00:38:51.329
As he's strangling me.
00:38:51.970 --> 00:38:54.530
Um you're next to the throne.
00:38:54.690 --> 00:38:57.970
Yeah, you're you guys are prone on the ground next to the throne.
00:38:58.210 --> 00:39:02.369
I'm gonna uh grab at my waist.
00:39:02.930 --> 00:39:05.490
I'm gonna take out my vibro dagger.
00:39:05.809 --> 00:39:06.530
Stab?
00:39:06.769 --> 00:39:07.409
That's the word.
00:39:07.570 --> 00:39:08.530
Stab for it.
00:39:08.690 --> 00:39:09.010
Pretty nice.
00:39:09.090 --> 00:39:09.809
I'm gonna stab.
00:39:10.369 --> 00:39:10.930
That's a good idea.
00:39:11.090 --> 00:39:11.730
Break the trend.
00:39:11.809 --> 00:39:12.050
Break it.
00:39:12.130 --> 00:39:12.450
Break it.
00:39:12.610 --> 00:39:12.930
Break it.
00:39:13.090 --> 00:39:13.650
Break it.
00:39:14.849 --> 00:39:15.409
What is it?
00:39:15.730 --> 00:39:16.289
Close, man.
00:39:16.369 --> 00:39:16.849
It's 19.
00:39:16.930 --> 00:39:17.809
I mean you did great.
00:39:18.050 --> 00:39:18.930
Just there's a secret.
00:39:19.329 --> 00:39:19.730
I'll take it.
00:39:19.809 --> 00:39:20.289
That's pretty good.
00:39:20.369 --> 00:39:22.289
What was a 19 plus a 19?
00:39:22.530 --> 00:39:23.170
38.
00:39:23.329 --> 00:39:24.450
38, Zach.
00:39:24.690 --> 00:39:26.369
38 will surpass 30.
00:39:26.530 --> 00:39:26.930
Yeah.
00:39:27.090 --> 00:39:28.210
Hey oh yeah, Brady.
00:39:28.530 --> 00:39:34.610
I wish these did more damage, but that is a uh 7 plus 4.
00:39:34.930 --> 00:39:35.970
That's 11.
00:39:36.130 --> 00:39:37.170
11 damage.
00:39:37.409 --> 00:39:37.970
Excellent.
00:39:38.130 --> 00:39:39.409
And where do you stand him at?
00:39:39.650 --> 00:39:44.530
I'd say I'd uh say uh right in the side below his armpit.
00:39:44.690 --> 00:39:49.010
And I don't think I can attempt to push him off yet, because that would probably be another round.
00:39:49.250 --> 00:39:49.570
Yeah.
00:39:49.730 --> 00:39:50.210
Yeah.
00:39:50.450 --> 00:39:57.970
Okay, so that passes back to Damon, who is up with Kanari fighting these fucks.
00:39:58.210 --> 00:39:59.970
So I am going to.
00:40:00.530 --> 00:40:03.010
Are there any large objects in the room?
00:40:03.250 --> 00:40:05.010
There's at least the throne I know of.
00:40:05.250 --> 00:40:07.970
There's crimson banners that are hanging on the walls.
00:40:08.130 --> 00:40:13.010
With I mean, I know I'm engaged with these guys too, but I am going to break away.
00:40:13.730 --> 00:40:15.090
Is what is disengaging?
00:40:15.170 --> 00:40:16.210
Is that a thing in this?
00:40:16.450 --> 00:40:17.490
Um, yes.
00:40:17.809 --> 00:40:22.210
You the first square has to get you out of combat, and then you can move half your speed.
00:40:22.450 --> 00:40:27.170
So then am I able to shift out of the engagement with these guys?
00:40:27.409 --> 00:40:29.570
Yes, because they've moved us around Kanari.
00:40:29.730 --> 00:40:30.050
Okay.
00:40:30.289 --> 00:40:38.289
Then I am going to shift out of the square and use the rest of my movement to move towards Talon as I do so.
00:40:38.610 --> 00:40:42.289
Kanari, we need to cut the head off the snake.
00:40:42.530 --> 00:40:45.170
And I am gonna make my way over to Talon.
00:40:45.490 --> 00:40:47.809
Am I able to get within 60 feet of him?
00:40:48.130 --> 00:40:49.970
You can get within 60 feet, yes.
00:40:50.130 --> 00:40:50.450
Okay.
00:40:50.610 --> 00:40:57.090
Then I am going to, as I get over there, just reach out with my hand and close my eyes and try to just grip him in the force.
00:40:57.970 --> 00:40:58.289
Okay.
00:40:59.650 --> 00:41:00.769
Sorry, I didn't really steal your dice.
00:41:01.970 --> 00:41:04.369
31, but that's against fortitude.
00:41:06.130 --> 00:41:07.250
I'm sorry, 40.
00:41:07.650 --> 00:41:08.530
40 against fortitude.
00:41:08.610 --> 00:41:10.130
I'm down the condition crack.
00:41:10.530 --> 00:41:14.210
That will, and you got uh that will surpass his fortitude of 26.
00:41:14.369 --> 00:41:14.849
It's 30.
00:41:14.930 --> 00:41:16.050
I misspoke the second time, I think.
00:41:16.130 --> 00:41:17.650
So 30 beats at 26.
00:41:17.889 --> 00:41:18.369
Yep.
00:41:18.690 --> 00:41:19.010
Okay.
00:41:19.409 --> 00:41:21.730
Um then we have like the same.
00:41:22.130 --> 00:41:28.849
So he takes 6d6 worth of damage and can only take a single swift action on his next turn.
00:41:30.050 --> 00:41:30.530
Sweet.
00:41:30.849 --> 00:41:31.329
Four.
00:41:33.170 --> 00:41:37.730
So you as you're stabbing him, you see him like get stabbed, and then on a second later, he's like, oh.
00:41:38.369 --> 00:41:43.730
Even though he's choking you, all of a sudden it's just like body seems to tense up like something is grasping him invisibly.
00:41:43.970 --> 00:41:44.930
That's a pretty good roll.
00:41:45.090 --> 00:41:46.530
Uh 24.
00:41:47.010 --> 00:41:47.490
Damn.
00:41:47.730 --> 00:41:48.130
Ooh.
00:41:48.530 --> 00:41:58.690
And as he just starts like getting squished and he's just like, I think back to like how afraid I used to be of using this power after killing that one guy.
00:41:58.849 --> 00:42:01.409
Just right off memory of that one time where I just crushed the guy.
00:42:02.050 --> 00:42:05.889
And uh this time it feels deserved.
00:42:06.210 --> 00:42:10.930
You understand the outcome and you're fully aware that this is what you want.
00:42:11.170 --> 00:42:11.730
Yeah.
00:42:11.970 --> 00:42:23.090
I see that poor guy's face, and I realize now that his sacrifice was so that I understood when the cost is worth being paid.
00:42:23.409 --> 00:42:27.650
Alright, so I'm gonna go at the same one I attacked earlier.
00:42:27.889 --> 00:42:31.409
Is there any negative to them being around me like that?
00:42:31.490 --> 00:42:33.650
Because I I'll shift out.
00:42:34.769 --> 00:42:35.090
No.
00:42:35.329 --> 00:42:38.050
They get a bonus on attacking you, but that's it.
00:42:38.610 --> 00:42:41.329
But they're just gonna get either way.
00:42:42.930 --> 00:42:48.769
20 24 against reflex?
00:42:49.090 --> 00:42:49.409
Yeah.
00:42:49.730 --> 00:42:52.610
That will not surpass the reflex of 28.
00:42:53.409 --> 00:42:58.130
I need to be a little effectual here.
00:42:59.809 --> 00:43:01.409
Are you fucking kidding me?
00:43:01.730 --> 00:43:02.930
I don't know if we've rolled above it.
00:43:03.409 --> 00:43:05.329
Like me and Justin rolled a 19 each, I think.
00:43:05.570 --> 00:43:07.010
Ah, that'll not hit.
00:43:07.170 --> 00:43:11.010
Uh I take a minus minus three to the attack.
00:43:12.289 --> 00:43:16.210
19 plus 16 is 35.
00:43:16.849 --> 00:43:17.170
Yes.
00:43:17.490 --> 00:43:18.610
So that will hit.
00:43:18.930 --> 00:43:20.769
88 plus 9.
00:43:21.010 --> 00:43:22.289
8 plus 9.
00:43:22.450 --> 00:43:24.050
15 damage to 15?
00:43:24.210 --> 00:43:24.369
17.
00:43:24.690 --> 00:43:24.930
Sweet.
00:43:25.090 --> 00:43:25.809
8 plus 9.
00:43:26.130 --> 00:43:26.769
8 plus 9?
00:43:26.930 --> 00:43:27.329
17.
00:43:27.490 --> 00:43:28.210
17, yeah.
00:43:28.530 --> 00:43:29.329
That's good.
00:43:30.050 --> 00:43:31.329
He is bloodied.
00:43:32.050 --> 00:43:32.690
Nice.
00:43:33.730 --> 00:43:34.849
One out of 12.
00:43:35.329 --> 00:43:37.329
24th of the way there, guys.
00:43:38.849 --> 00:43:40.210
I'm proud of us.
00:43:40.849 --> 00:43:42.050
Alright, that's where we're gonna end it, right?
00:43:42.130 --> 00:43:45.730
That's the clip I'm just okay.
00:43:45.809 --> 00:43:50.610
Uh, with Canari's turnover, Talon gets his swiftest of actions.
00:43:51.329 --> 00:43:55.010
He will spend his swift action to catch a second wind.
00:43:56.130 --> 00:43:57.809
Son of a biscuit.
00:43:58.050 --> 00:44:00.050
He didn't he didn't want to bond with his son?
00:44:00.610 --> 00:44:04.130
You you were my greatest mistake.
00:44:04.610 --> 00:44:05.570
Jesus.
00:44:05.809 --> 00:44:11.409
And then on the force on the force's turn, you will see another flash of lightning.
00:44:11.730 --> 00:44:13.970
The lights inside the throne room will flicker.
00:44:14.930 --> 00:44:18.930
For a moment, it's only lit by torches before the lights return.
00:44:20.210 --> 00:44:27.170
Dalen, you will feel something drawing your attention inside of your robes.
00:44:28.289 --> 00:44:30.849
And you will also feel the pull of Malia.
00:44:31.250 --> 00:44:33.409
And you know exactly where she's at.
00:44:33.970 --> 00:44:35.170
Oh shit.
00:44:35.329 --> 00:44:35.970
Yeah.
00:44:36.450 --> 00:44:37.409
Fuck.
00:44:39.490 --> 00:44:40.690
Oh my god.
00:44:42.450 --> 00:44:44.369
She's falling right now.
00:44:46.690 --> 00:44:48.210
Right as we speak.
00:44:48.530 --> 00:44:49.809
I'm gonna wait till my turn.
00:44:49.970 --> 00:44:51.250
I'm processing.
00:44:51.809 --> 00:44:54.769
That would be the uh sovereign blades up next.
00:44:55.010 --> 00:44:57.889
Um, three of them will attack Kanari again.
00:44:58.289 --> 00:45:00.369
The first one will definitely miss.
00:45:01.090 --> 00:45:03.809
The second one will be a 30 against your reflex.
00:45:05.010 --> 00:45:07.970
Uh third one will be a 30 against your reflex.
00:45:08.289 --> 00:45:08.530
Okay.
00:45:08.690 --> 00:45:10.610
I'm gonna go for the first one.
00:45:13.409 --> 00:45:14.210
There you go.
00:45:14.369 --> 00:45:15.970
That'll probably do it.
00:45:16.210 --> 00:45:18.690
17 plus 19, that'll definitely do it.
00:45:18.930 --> 00:45:19.409
56.
00:45:19.889 --> 00:45:20.210
Nice.
00:45:20.289 --> 00:45:23.329
So you just block that fibroblade attack with your lightsaber.
00:45:23.570 --> 00:45:26.769
And then go knock 12.
00:45:28.050 --> 00:45:29.650
I there's no possible way.
00:45:29.889 --> 00:45:31.730
An 18, I think, would have matched.
00:45:31.970 --> 00:45:39.090
So that second attack will hit you for 27 damage.
00:45:40.930 --> 00:45:41.730
Fucking hell.
00:45:42.450 --> 00:45:43.010
25!
00:45:43.650 --> 00:45:49.570
Hard of the remaining sovereign blades, six of them will start to move towards Talon.
00:45:49.970 --> 00:45:52.369
The remaining three will start to move towards you.
00:45:52.530 --> 00:45:55.970
And at that moment, Keyrock, would you like to introduce yourself?
00:45:56.289 --> 00:45:56.610
Okay.
00:45:57.409 --> 00:46:09.809
So assuming the double doors are still open, I would like to stroll into the room, and I'm gonna be holding the triple seven in one hand, and then the jackpot in the other, because it's a sawed off, right?
00:46:10.610 --> 00:46:19.889
And as I walk in, good evening, boys! There's a new big dog in town, and I'm looking to eat.
00:46:19.970 --> 00:46:23.570
And I'm gonna blast one of them with uh the triple seven.
00:46:24.050 --> 00:46:24.530
Do it?
00:46:24.690 --> 00:46:26.450
One of the southern blades.
00:46:27.010 --> 00:46:28.769
Please spawn the ones that are on me.
00:46:28.930 --> 00:46:31.090
I'll do one of the ones that's attacking Kanari.
00:46:31.170 --> 00:46:31.889
It's pretty good.
00:46:32.130 --> 00:46:32.769
34.
00:46:34.450 --> 00:46:35.170
20 damage.
00:46:35.409 --> 00:46:36.369
Oh, sick.
00:46:37.409 --> 00:46:39.090
Um, you will kill one of them.
00:46:39.250 --> 00:46:40.450
It's nice to have arms.
00:46:40.610 --> 00:46:41.250
You're welcome.
00:46:41.409 --> 00:46:50.289
Upon killing the first Southern blade, I'm gonna say to everyone before I end my turn here is oh, I guess that makes me a bloodhound now.
00:46:50.690 --> 00:46:51.650
Jesus.
00:46:51.970 --> 00:46:54.530
Oh my god, you could not commit a better time.
00:46:55.090 --> 00:46:57.970
If that's your turn entering, it would go back to the top of the.
00:46:58.369 --> 00:47:00.930
I think I'm on the ground, I believe, still.
00:47:01.090 --> 00:47:02.690
Oh, right, right, right, right, right.
00:47:02.930 --> 00:47:04.769
So your daddy's on top of you.
00:47:05.650 --> 00:47:07.170
That's more typical.
00:47:07.650 --> 00:47:11.650
Is he is he in the process of getting choked or is this done?
00:47:12.210 --> 00:47:14.690
He's being gripped, so I'm like kind of crushing him.
00:47:14.849 --> 00:47:17.970
I can try to continue it, but I have to make the attack every time.
00:47:18.130 --> 00:47:21.730
I'm gonna throw him off of me.
00:47:23.570 --> 00:47:28.930
And I'm gonna say, Your biggest mistake was letting me live.
00:47:29.250 --> 00:47:29.809
Is that his turn?
00:47:30.210 --> 00:47:31.329
Give me a strength check.
00:47:31.570 --> 00:47:32.610
A strength check.
00:47:32.769 --> 00:47:33.889
That's what I figured.
00:47:34.050 --> 00:47:35.010
It's uh it's okay.
00:47:35.090 --> 00:47:35.970
It's a 18.
00:47:36.369 --> 00:47:39.010
Because he's being four script, that'll be enough to throw him off.
00:47:39.250 --> 00:47:43.170
And I'm gonna stand I'm gonna stand up and stare him down.
00:47:43.809 --> 00:47:47.170
Just take the moment just to s just to stare him down.
00:47:47.490 --> 00:47:49.409
So And choose the dodge.
00:47:49.730 --> 00:47:50.849
With me going next.
00:47:52.050 --> 00:47:53.570
I am going to.
00:47:55.570 --> 00:47:59.970
Just because these guys are kind of closing in, I am going I don't know if I want to do that.
00:48:00.210 --> 00:48:02.769
You throw him off you and you're staring him down.
00:48:03.329 --> 00:48:05.730
What are you waiting for, Greedo?
00:48:06.210 --> 00:48:11.090
Even as we speak, his influence is corrupting Malia.
00:48:11.889 --> 00:48:12.849
End this.
00:48:13.329 --> 00:48:18.369
So these gods can go back to whatever hole they crawled out of.
00:48:18.930 --> 00:48:24.849
And as I do that, I'm gonna use my move action to cast Levitate on myself and just start floating like 15 feet.
00:48:25.010 --> 00:48:25.730
How far can I go?
00:48:28.369 --> 00:48:29.329
Oh, I do a check.
00:48:29.409 --> 00:48:30.530
Let's use the force.
00:48:30.769 --> 00:48:31.889
Move up to 30 feet.
00:48:31.970 --> 00:48:37.570
So I'm gonna float 20 feet up in the air just so I'm out of range of the ones that have melee weapons.
00:48:37.889 --> 00:48:51.409
And as I do that, I'm going to close my hand and Talon like shifts around, and you see him kind of like float up in the air as though he's standing, but his feet are just like a few inches off the ground, and he's still just fighting at my grasp.
00:48:51.570 --> 00:49:01.010
And I'm gonna try to maintain my force grip with a 29 this time against Fortitude.
00:49:01.490 --> 00:49:04.130
Are you able to do two different force things?
00:49:04.210 --> 00:49:05.970
Like, can you maintain and cast another force spell?
00:49:06.369 --> 00:49:13.010
Maintaining levitation is a move action, and maintaining uh force slam is a standard action.
00:49:13.170 --> 00:49:15.090
Or force uh grip is a standard action.
00:49:15.170 --> 00:49:18.289
Let me look up, if not what I'm doing with levitate is just for flavor.
00:49:18.530 --> 00:49:23.970
So I got a 29 on fortitude against him, and I don't think we resolved it.
00:49:24.210 --> 00:49:26.210
It'll surpass his fortitude.
00:49:26.450 --> 00:49:31.090
Okay, so that is six more.
00:49:33.170 --> 00:49:34.369
Uh 20.
00:49:34.610 --> 00:49:37.970
And Kanari, who is dealing with all of the sovereign blades.
00:49:38.450 --> 00:49:38.930
Literally.
00:49:39.250 --> 00:49:39.650
Helping?
00:49:39.889 --> 00:49:40.210
Check out.
00:49:40.530 --> 00:49:41.650
Fight the army.
00:49:42.210 --> 00:49:43.170
Fight the whole army.
00:49:43.329 --> 00:49:44.610
Fight the whole army.
00:49:44.849 --> 00:49:47.650
Uh I'm gonna attack another one that's close by to me.
00:49:50.450 --> 00:49:51.250
19.
00:49:51.809 --> 00:49:53.170
It's not gonna hit.
00:49:54.369 --> 00:49:55.730
19 will not hit.
00:49:55.889 --> 00:49:57.010
You got another one, right?
00:49:57.250 --> 00:49:58.530
What do I need to beat?
00:49:58.849 --> 00:50:00.450
To hit the sovereign blades?
00:50:00.690 --> 00:50:01.809
Yeah, 30, right?
00:50:01.970 --> 00:50:02.530
28.
00:50:03.170 --> 00:50:03.809
28.
00:50:04.050 --> 00:50:05.970
Oh man, a dark side point would do it.
00:50:06.210 --> 00:50:08.610
No, I'm just gonna go for my second.
00:50:09.090 --> 00:50:11.650
I'm gonna try and swang a lang.
00:50:17.409 --> 00:50:17.650
Nope.
00:50:17.809 --> 00:50:19.409
Gotta lie as close as you can get to doing the thing.
00:50:20.690 --> 00:50:20.849
Okay.
00:50:23.889 --> 00:50:24.450
Definitely not.
00:50:24.610 --> 00:50:26.050
How are you not angry right now?
00:50:26.289 --> 00:50:31.650
That's I yeah, yeah, you know, it was easier to defend you earlier in the day, but it's getting kind of hard now.
00:50:31.889 --> 00:50:34.369
Then it passes back to Talon.
00:50:34.849 --> 00:50:37.409
So he just has a swift action anyway.
00:50:37.650 --> 00:50:40.610
Yeah, it's kind of a shitty ability, but yeah.
00:50:43.010 --> 00:50:45.730
Until I drop it or I miss the attack.
00:50:46.050 --> 00:50:50.210
So he isn't any steps down, so he can't really do anything with his swift action.
00:50:50.450 --> 00:50:52.130
Uh, it is the force, then.
00:50:52.450 --> 00:50:52.769
Okay.
00:50:53.090 --> 00:50:58.210
On the force's turn, um, that window above the throne, you will see shatter.
00:50:58.369 --> 00:51:04.769
And you'll see an explosion behind it, and then you'll see an LA AT fly overhead.
00:51:05.250 --> 00:51:09.010
And you will heal hear more blaster cannons and blaster bolts.
00:51:09.329 --> 00:51:13.650
And you gain the impression that the Republic is mounting a counterattack.
00:51:13.970 --> 00:51:15.650
There's hope, Kanari.
00:51:15.970 --> 00:51:16.849
For all of us.
00:51:17.090 --> 00:51:20.450
You will see several squads of clone troopers enter the room.
00:51:20.690 --> 00:51:22.130
Oh shit, because they are here.
00:51:22.289 --> 00:51:23.170
Fuck yeah!
00:51:23.570 --> 00:51:32.690
EC sholy god will nat 20 and just brutally destroy this sovereign blade.
00:51:32.849 --> 00:51:33.970
Bada boom.
00:51:35.329 --> 00:51:39.889
And Cyro Tilk will step up and try and attempt to stun another one.
00:51:41.329 --> 00:51:44.289
And he will do very well, and that guy is stunned.
00:51:44.610 --> 00:51:48.130
Okay, so after that is the sovereign blades.
00:51:48.610 --> 00:51:49.090
Yes.
00:51:49.329 --> 00:51:54.530
Um, there are the six that are backing up towards Talon, and then there are three left.
00:51:54.610 --> 00:51:55.570
One of them is stunned.
00:51:55.650 --> 00:51:59.250
The remaining two will focus on Credo.
00:52:00.769 --> 00:52:01.730
Not Credo.
00:52:01.970 --> 00:52:02.690
Kanari.
00:52:03.329 --> 00:52:04.050
Canary.
00:52:04.369 --> 00:52:06.369
The remaining two will focus on Canary.
00:52:06.530 --> 00:52:08.930
Uh first one's a 25 against your reflex.
00:52:09.409 --> 00:52:11.090
25 against my reflex?
00:52:12.369 --> 00:52:12.530
Yeah.
00:52:13.730 --> 00:52:15.329
And the second one's a net 20.
00:52:15.730 --> 00:52:16.450
Oh god.
00:52:16.610 --> 00:52:17.490
Well, there's that.
00:52:17.650 --> 00:52:19.250
So what does that equal out to?
00:52:20.050 --> 00:52:20.930
That's way wrong.
00:52:21.090 --> 00:52:21.809
37.
00:52:22.210 --> 00:52:23.090
37.
00:52:23.970 --> 00:52:26.930
I'd have to net 28.
00:52:27.090 --> 00:52:28.610
It's possible, fuck it.
00:52:29.970 --> 00:52:30.769
We ball.
00:52:30.849 --> 00:52:31.889
I'm gonna try and block.
00:52:32.130 --> 00:52:32.690
Easy.
00:52:32.930 --> 00:52:33.970
28.
00:52:34.450 --> 00:52:37.730
And then they rolled a 37?
00:52:38.050 --> 00:52:38.210
Yes.
00:52:40.210 --> 00:52:41.010
28.
00:52:41.170 --> 00:52:44.930
So I need a point altogether, which means I need to take a dark side point.
00:52:45.170 --> 00:52:47.090
I'll take a dark side point altogether.
00:52:48.769 --> 00:52:50.130
It's a five.
00:52:51.730 --> 00:52:54.289
Twenty-eight plus five.
00:52:57.090 --> 00:53:01.170
And then thirty eight.
00:53:01.570 --> 00:53:02.930
Match blocks.
00:53:03.889 --> 00:53:04.849
You did it?
00:53:05.010 --> 00:53:05.409
Yeah.
00:53:05.570 --> 00:53:05.809
Yeah.
00:53:06.130 --> 00:53:07.170
Holy shit.
00:53:07.329 --> 00:53:09.329
He chased the dragon and got it.
00:53:09.970 --> 00:53:11.170
That's nuts.
00:53:11.329 --> 00:53:12.530
I'm sorry, master.
00:53:12.690 --> 00:53:15.090
Okay, then that that is too uh Kirok.
00:53:15.250 --> 00:53:15.889
Alright.
00:53:17.170 --> 00:53:23.570
I'm gonna blast uh another one, but this time I'm going with the gun in my other hand.
00:53:23.730 --> 00:53:26.769
I'm going with the uh jackpot this time.
00:53:27.250 --> 00:53:29.170
25 to attack.
00:53:29.490 --> 00:53:32.769
That will not surpass their reflex with 28.
00:53:33.250 --> 00:53:35.090
We'll take a force point though.
00:53:35.889 --> 00:53:37.730
So that's gonna be 31.
00:53:38.289 --> 00:53:39.250
Successful.
00:53:39.409 --> 00:53:40.610
Woo! Nice.
00:53:41.329 --> 00:53:41.970
A fire.
00:53:42.610 --> 00:53:43.329
Then I hit.
00:53:43.650 --> 00:53:44.450
Then I hit.
00:53:44.690 --> 00:53:46.690
That's gonna be 15 damage.
00:53:47.010 --> 00:53:48.849
Um, that one will die.
00:53:49.250 --> 00:53:51.010
That was the one that was stunned by Susie.
00:53:51.170 --> 00:53:52.690
Don't worry Kenari.
00:53:52.769 --> 00:53:54.289
I'm getting closer.
00:53:54.530 --> 00:53:56.849
And if your turn is done, it goes to Creedo.
00:53:56.930 --> 00:53:57.170
Yeah.
00:53:57.570 --> 00:54:06.050
As I see my father levitating off the ground, I point my blaster rifle at him.
00:54:07.650 --> 00:54:12.050
And I say, You're the reason I never came back here.
00:54:14.050 --> 00:54:18.130
You never deserve to be called father by me or Malia.
00:54:21.090 --> 00:54:24.050
You will die just as you ruled here.
00:54:24.450 --> 00:54:29.409
A pathetic old man with a pathetic old plan.
00:54:31.970 --> 00:54:41.570
As I hesitate to pull the trigger, I look at my father, a familiar foe, and study him.
00:54:42.450 --> 00:54:48.930
And as you study him, you will notice for the first time that there is a lightsaber blade hanging from his hip.
00:54:51.730 --> 00:54:53.010
Dalen, how close are you?
00:54:53.650 --> 00:54:58.369
I moved close enough to do force grip, which I think is 60 feet.
00:54:58.610 --> 00:54:58.930
Okay.
00:54:59.570 --> 00:55:04.369
Alright, so I am floating in the air, just gripping him.
00:55:04.450 --> 00:55:07.809
I need to maintain levitation to see if that holds up.
00:55:08.369 --> 00:55:13.329
And I got a 25, which is the highest tier.
00:55:13.409 --> 00:55:14.530
So levitation holds up.
00:55:14.610 --> 00:55:18.050
Actually, it drops down, so I'm a little slower because of my condition track.
00:55:18.289 --> 00:55:25.409
So as I do, like I watch as uh Credo doesn't kill his father and instead just stands there watching him.
00:55:25.490 --> 00:55:29.250
And I like drift down about 10 feet, so I'm still floating off the ground.
00:55:29.329 --> 00:55:33.889
Let's do 15 feet, so I'm just floating like no, let's do 10, so I'm out of range of melee still.
00:55:34.130 --> 00:55:37.250
Just floating like 10 feet off the ground as I hold him there.
00:55:37.570 --> 00:55:46.050
And uh Suzy and Minato are just flooding in with clone troopers trying to like change the tide.
00:55:46.530 --> 00:55:51.490
And I'm really starting to wonder if he gets out of this alive.
00:55:51.730 --> 00:55:54.210
You made it sound like you were willing to kill him.
00:55:54.610 --> 00:55:59.010
So part of me thinks this fight is still on.
00:56:00.369 --> 00:56:03.570
Is I want to continue gripping him, I think.
00:56:05.170 --> 00:56:08.930
I know this is your fight, and I don't really want to take the kill.
00:56:09.490 --> 00:56:12.930
But I'm fucking done with this shit.
00:56:13.329 --> 00:56:19.490
So I am going to maintain my grip on him.
00:56:23.010 --> 00:56:27.650
Credo! He has to die.
00:56:28.369 --> 00:56:31.010
This won't end until he dies.
00:56:31.809 --> 00:56:36.210
I'm going to use or maintain my force grip.
00:56:36.530 --> 00:56:40.450
25, I think that still hits the top of my ability.
00:56:40.690 --> 00:56:44.369
Does that does 25 beat his fortitude?
00:56:44.610 --> 00:56:45.329
It does not.
00:56:45.490 --> 00:56:59.650
So I'm holding on to him and I feel him breaking free, his feet touch the ground for a second, and I close my eyes and I think of the last time I really remember this sensation of just floating.
00:56:59.809 --> 00:57:04.210
It takes me back to the back to tank when I was a kid, that weightlessness.
00:57:05.090 --> 00:57:07.329
But I'm not who I was then.
00:57:07.650 --> 00:57:12.769
And I may never go back because I am not a weak little child.
00:57:14.530 --> 00:57:16.369
I am a goddamn Jedi.
00:57:17.250 --> 00:57:20.690
And I have trained my whole life to bring peace.
00:57:21.170 --> 00:57:23.889
And this man stands in its way.
00:57:25.329 --> 00:57:26.210
Perfect.
00:57:26.450 --> 00:57:30.849
So I don't care what it costs me.
00:57:31.970 --> 00:57:34.450
I am going to bring peace to this planet.
00:57:34.690 --> 00:57:38.450
And I'm using a dark side point and a force point and a dark side point.
00:57:39.010 --> 00:57:41.650
So that is plus eight.
00:57:42.050 --> 00:57:44.530
So now it is a 33.
00:57:45.010 --> 00:57:48.130
That will surpass his fortitude of 26.
00:57:48.690 --> 00:57:51.970
So I'm gonna roll damage because it's not gonna be as overwhelming.
00:57:52.289 --> 00:57:55.010
But that is 20 damage.
00:57:55.490 --> 00:57:58.130
So he's hurting pretty bad, but he's still up.
00:57:58.690 --> 00:58:09.730
And as I'm floating there just above the ground, thinking back about how far I've come from that weak, pathetic child that sat there in the back to tank.
00:58:10.610 --> 00:58:15.170
You see my eyes, and they don't mine anymore.
00:58:15.730 --> 00:58:18.289
That is the final dark side point to tip me over.
00:58:18.450 --> 00:58:23.650
Is my eyes wreathe in yellow-red flame, and I give in to the dark side.
00:58:24.530 --> 00:58:25.329
There it is.
00:58:26.289 --> 00:58:27.570
Son of a bitch.
00:58:27.809 --> 00:58:28.530
There it is.
00:58:28.769 --> 00:58:30.130
It finally happened.
00:58:31.570 --> 00:58:33.809
You've been racking him up for a while now.
00:58:34.130 --> 00:58:35.010
Oh boy.
00:58:35.329 --> 00:58:41.170
So Kanari, how do you have a man floating above the ground with fiery red eyes demanding that you kill your father?
00:58:41.490 --> 00:58:43.970
Kanari's turn! Yeah, so how do you feel?
00:58:44.289 --> 00:58:46.530
Kanari's just pissed.
00:58:47.090 --> 00:58:54.450
I've seen like the difference now at this point, what like a s like a dark Jedi looks like, right?
00:58:54.690 --> 00:58:57.250
You're very aware that Dalen has fallen.
00:58:58.130 --> 00:58:59.490
What have you done, Dalen?
00:59:01.889 --> 00:59:03.170
What is this?
00:59:06.210 --> 00:59:08.450
And I I gotta keep swinging.
00:59:08.690 --> 00:59:11.250
How hard would it be for me to jump that high?
00:59:11.490 --> 00:59:12.369
I don't I don't know.
00:59:12.610 --> 00:59:13.650
I mean, yeah, you could jump.
00:59:13.889 --> 00:59:15.490
I think it might actually be on that.
00:59:15.730 --> 00:59:18.130
I'm gonna look to Q-Rock.
00:59:19.650 --> 00:59:21.409
QROK, do you have this?
00:59:21.730 --> 00:59:23.889
Oh, you know I do, Genari.
00:59:24.690 --> 00:59:31.730
Alright, and then I'm going to shift and run and try to jump at um Jalen.
00:59:32.289 --> 00:59:32.610
Okay.
00:59:33.010 --> 00:59:38.769
If I could within my movement, if I could try and get up the stairs a bit.
00:59:38.849 --> 00:59:41.490
I don't know how long the stairs are, I guess I should say.
00:59:42.130 --> 00:59:46.050
They don't extend more than 10 or 15 feet from the throne.
00:59:48.769 --> 00:59:51.409
So they'd be pretty steep, you would say?
00:59:51.809 --> 00:59:52.369
Yeah.
00:59:52.690 --> 00:59:53.010
Okay.
00:59:53.250 --> 00:59:59.010
Then I'm gonna try and use them to get more essentially height to grab to jump at him.
00:59:59.409 --> 01:00:02.210
Well they're they start like 60 feet away from you.
01:00:03.010 --> 01:00:05.889
Oh, the bottom of the stairs are there are 60 feet away?
01:00:05.970 --> 01:00:06.130
Okay.
01:00:06.450 --> 01:00:06.530
Yeah.
01:00:07.570 --> 01:00:11.250
Yeah, you're like um 80 feet from the throne itself.
01:00:11.490 --> 01:00:13.970
Okay, then I'm gonna just try and jump at Dalen from the ground.
01:00:14.450 --> 01:00:16.930
I don't know what kind of I'll just roll, I guess.
01:00:17.090 --> 01:00:18.530
A jump check, I'm assuming.
01:00:19.010 --> 01:00:19.329
Yeah.
01:00:19.730 --> 01:00:20.210
Yeah.
01:00:22.210 --> 01:00:24.050
One of my better rolls today.
01:00:24.450 --> 01:00:25.650
Plus nine.
01:00:25.889 --> 01:00:27.970
That's a twenty five.
01:00:28.289 --> 01:00:30.930
I mean, you'd be able to jump up high enough to attack him.
01:00:31.329 --> 01:00:31.889
Attack him?
01:00:31.970 --> 01:00:32.690
I wouldn't be able to.
01:00:33.010 --> 01:00:34.930
I don't think I'm looking to attack him.
01:00:35.170 --> 01:00:36.530
What are you trying to do?
01:00:37.170 --> 01:00:39.809
I'm looking to kind of grab him out of the air.
01:00:40.130 --> 01:00:42.050
You'd be able to grab onto his legs, yeah.
01:00:42.369 --> 01:00:42.690
Okay.
01:00:43.090 --> 01:00:45.010
Uh then that is what I'm going to do.
01:00:45.090 --> 01:00:48.050
I'm gonna grab onto his legs and try to pull him down.
01:00:48.289 --> 01:00:52.450
Okay, so you charge at him, give me a unarmed attack.
01:00:54.369 --> 01:00:55.090
Atomy.
01:00:55.809 --> 01:00:57.570
18 plus.
01:00:58.050 --> 01:00:59.570
If it's a seven, you're good.
01:01:00.450 --> 01:01:02.130
Uh actually a six.
01:01:02.690 --> 01:01:03.970
Plus three.
01:01:04.369 --> 01:01:06.530
Yeah, you just football tackle me.
01:01:06.610 --> 01:01:08.050
Just spear me right in the side.
01:01:08.289 --> 01:01:14.769
And I guess that's not fully covered, but I assume a spell that targets me to levitate is not going to uh hold us both up.
01:01:15.250 --> 01:01:15.650
Right.
01:01:16.369 --> 01:01:21.490
Yeah, so we just land on that hard tile floor of the throne room.
01:01:21.809 --> 01:01:23.409
Kanari, why?
01:01:23.809 --> 01:01:26.369
Dalen, you've lost your way, I can tell.
01:01:26.450 --> 01:01:28.130
Something has changed.
01:01:29.010 --> 01:01:30.050
What is going on?
01:01:30.210 --> 01:01:32.289
Why are you crushing him like this?
01:01:32.690 --> 01:01:35.010
Because he is our enemy, Kanari.
01:01:36.210 --> 01:01:42.210
Look around! The city is torn up in war because of him.
01:01:43.570 --> 01:01:46.210
What do you think we came here to do?
01:01:46.769 --> 01:01:53.490
There are ways of dealing with an enemy that don't involve obliterating them.
01:01:54.930 --> 01:01:57.329
And you see Dalen just look around.
01:01:57.409 --> 01:02:04.610
We're surrounded by people with guns, clones coming in, just fighting, and I I look just dumbfounded.
01:02:05.650 --> 01:02:11.490
Peace stopped being an option when he declared war.
01:02:12.690 --> 01:02:15.329
I'm ending this on his terms.
01:02:15.970 --> 01:02:18.769
I will not allow you to fall this far.
01:02:19.889 --> 01:02:21.170
I refuse.
01:02:22.450 --> 01:02:29.490
No matter your reasoning, I will fight if I have to.
01:02:29.809 --> 01:02:30.450
Good.
01:02:31.329 --> 01:02:33.889
That's all I want you to do.
01:02:34.450 --> 01:02:37.570
Fight! Now with me.
01:02:38.450 --> 01:02:41.409
Peace is one life away.
01:02:42.769 --> 01:02:43.650
Take it.
01:02:44.210 --> 01:02:47.090
We are Jedi Knights.
01:02:47.730 --> 01:02:49.650
We stand for honor.
01:02:50.610 --> 01:02:54.210
We stand and we fight for those who cannot.
01:02:54.690 --> 01:02:58.450
And we do not take lives blazonly.
01:02:59.809 --> 01:03:02.289
And I will look towards the clones.
01:03:02.849 --> 01:03:05.970
And I am Jedi Knight Kanari.
01:03:06.610 --> 01:03:10.450
I order you to take Talon Nexus into custody.
01:03:13.250 --> 01:03:19.409
We shall win this, not through brutality, but through justice.
01:03:19.730 --> 01:03:23.490
I'm actually gonna, I think, not maintain my force grip.
01:03:23.809 --> 01:03:32.369
So I would say that there are enough clones now in the room that the sovereign guards are going to stand down, realizing that they are way outnumbered.
01:03:33.170 --> 01:03:36.769
If this is the way, it must be done.
01:03:38.050 --> 01:03:38.690
Fine.
01:03:40.050 --> 01:03:43.490
And I'll let go of Talon Nexus.
01:03:44.690 --> 01:03:46.849
And he drops back down to his feet.
01:03:47.170 --> 01:03:49.090
I'm gonna walk up to Talon.
01:03:52.450 --> 01:03:55.170
And I'm gonna pick him up by his shirt.
01:03:58.930 --> 01:04:01.170
And then I'm gonna push him forward.
01:04:03.090 --> 01:04:08.610
And I'm gonna say, Let's go.
01:04:09.329 --> 01:04:11.970
Your fate has been sealed.
01:04:15.090 --> 01:04:17.250
And I'm gonna walk him down the stairs.
01:04:17.490 --> 01:04:23.490
And he's gonna go with you, and he's just gonna say, You could have been a king after I passed.
01:04:24.610 --> 01:04:26.450
I'm already a king.
01:04:26.769 --> 01:04:31.730
You escort him down, the clones will begin to approach and we'll start to manacle him.
01:04:32.369 --> 01:04:35.250
He still has friends in the Senate, Kanari.
01:04:36.130 --> 01:04:39.010
There's a very real chance he walks free.
01:04:39.730 --> 01:04:41.650
Then we weed them out.
01:04:42.369 --> 01:04:46.930
I understand your anger with the Senate, but your approach is the problem.
01:04:48.849 --> 01:04:51.010
You're being too brash.
01:04:51.730 --> 01:04:59.889
I know that we were trained from children to believe that there is one right way.
01:05:01.170 --> 01:05:02.690
One good way.
01:05:04.849 --> 01:05:08.130
That death is always to be avoided.
01:05:09.409 --> 01:05:13.329
You s you say we do not take life brazenly.
01:05:13.570 --> 01:05:15.329
Well, this man does.
01:05:16.130 --> 01:05:20.690
And if we want to defeat him, we must understand him.
01:05:21.170 --> 01:05:27.730
I know you do not see the path that I see, but I feel it, Kanari.
01:05:28.610 --> 01:05:39.730
I am not proud of what I am doing, of what I have done, but I, for the first time, I feel the dark side.
01:05:41.090 --> 01:05:42.369
It is out there.
01:05:42.769 --> 01:05:45.650
I look through the skylight shattered.
01:05:45.970 --> 01:05:51.809
Out there in the night sky, burning like great stars of hatred.
01:05:53.010 --> 01:05:55.970
To know your enemy is a strength.
01:05:56.849 --> 01:06:00.450
I am done doing what the Jedi tell me.
01:06:01.490 --> 01:06:08.690
I am going to get done what I need to do to bring peace to this galaxy.
01:06:08.769 --> 01:06:18.849
If they cannot forgive me for that, while you forgive Talannexis for his crimes, then I am no longer going to be a Jedi.
01:06:19.409 --> 01:06:21.250
But I still fight for peace.
01:06:21.490 --> 01:06:22.849
I fight for you.
01:06:23.409 --> 01:06:25.809
And I fight for Malia.
01:06:26.530 --> 01:06:28.610
Strike me down then.
01:06:28.849 --> 01:06:34.690
A millennia of half measures have brought your order and your republic to its state of decadence and corruption.
01:06:34.930 --> 01:06:39.170
Why else do you think Malia was so willing to cast you aside upon her return?
01:06:39.409 --> 01:06:39.970
Why else?
01:06:40.130 --> 01:06:42.930
And I'm going to swing my lightsaber at Telenaxis.
01:06:43.730 --> 01:06:48.610
He is considered I was gonna say, does this apply as a coup de gras?
01:06:48.690 --> 01:06:49.730
So is this a crit, then?
01:06:49.970 --> 01:06:51.250
It's an automatic crit.
01:06:51.650 --> 01:06:56.530
Okay, so I don't do a ton of damage on a crit, but I don't hit often with a lightsaber.
01:06:56.610 --> 01:06:57.809
I get to hit with a lightsaber, guys.
01:06:58.050 --> 01:06:58.610
I don't think I would.
01:06:59.090 --> 01:07:02.130
Sixteen times two is thirty-two against him.
01:07:03.409 --> 01:07:05.329
He had thirty-one hit points.
01:07:08.369 --> 01:07:14.610
Your blue blade in a flash of searing light cuts through the air in a brutal stroke, and Talon's voice is silenced forever.
01:07:15.329 --> 01:07:22.450
For a heartbeat, no one moves, except for Talon's head rolling down the stairs, landing at Yotan's feet.
01:07:23.650 --> 01:07:24.849
And that's where we'll end it.
01:07:30.530 --> 01:07:33.570
You have just finished chapter 25 of the Book of Dalen Gold.
01:07:33.809 --> 01:07:43.889
The Book of Dalen Gold stars Rob Hunter as Dalen Gold, Richard Capucil as Kanari, Justin Chapman as Credo, Peyton Castle as Kirock, and myself Zack Som as the Galaxy Master.
