0:42

I'm Ryan Reynolds. At Mint Mobile, we like

0:44

to do the opposite of what Big Wireless

0:46

does. They charge you a lot, we charge

0:49

you a little. So naturally, when they announced

0:51

they'd be raising their prices due to inflation,

0:53

we decided to deflate our prices due to

0:55

not hating you. That's right! We're cutting the

0:57

price of Mint Unlimited from $30 a month

0:59

to just $15 a month. Give

1:03

it a try at mintmobile.com. $45

1:06

1:08

new customers for a limited time. Unlimited more than 40GB per month.

1:10

Mint Slows. Full terms at mintmobile.com. You

1:26

get to what can only be the last

1:28

guard. As

1:52

you pass him, he leans in at the end

1:55

of the stairs, turn left, there will be a

1:57

chest. blasting

2:00

at you. It is... freezingly

2:03

cold. Like when they stripped us of

2:05

everything, and our equipment. Is that including

2:07

our warm weather gear? Yep. Okay, well

2:09

then we're going to run to that

2:11

chest. You sprint

2:13

to the end. Yep. That

2:15

single lonely staircase begins winding around

2:17

the last tippy part of the

2:19

mountain, clinging to the side of

2:21

it for dear life. You shear

2:23

up one side, shear down the

2:25

other. You can see even through

2:27

the howling wind and the snow

2:29

that it's throwing, you can see

2:32

the skeletal remains of

2:34

some building lying

2:36

atop Mount Gakas. This

2:39

would have once been a multi-story

2:41

affair, but now any story above

2:43

the first has been sheared away,

2:45

thrown down the side of Mount

2:47

Gakas to be forever destroyed. You

2:50

reach the top of the stairs, and you

2:52

can see ahead of you, there is some

2:54

sort of courtyard. In the courtyard, this would

2:57

be outside, or the building is

2:59

made up of several parts. You

3:01

can see the largest part is to your left,

3:04

a smaller part to your right, and

3:07

then that courtyard in the middle directly ahead of

3:09

you. In the center of the courtyard, you can

3:11

see there's some sort of statue, but you can't

3:13

make it out in the howling wind. Directly

3:16

to the left of you before the

3:18

big building, you can see it's underneath

3:20

some rocks but not very well. Someone

3:23

came up here, put it down, and then fuck them.

3:27

There is a little bronze chest. Crack

3:30

it open. You can see all of your equipment in

3:32

there. Whoa, just that warm weather gear

3:34

on ASAP. Even with the warm

3:36

weather gear, you're still going to need to make

3:38

checks, but every hour rather than every minute. Okay,

3:42

okay. What would you like to

3:44

explore first? The big building, the little building, the courtyard.

3:46

What's that? What was that? What we're dealing with is

3:49

not a death guard. It's a race. It's

3:51

a race. I'm telling you what, Hector. We

3:53

can't fight it. What is a race? Why not

3:55

a race? Bad news, as

3:57

Marilla says. You would know of race.

4:00

from like fairy tales. It's

4:02

a scary thing. A lot of people

4:04

die in an area of

4:06

negative energy. I've heard the stories.

4:08

Right. Yes. And let me tell

4:10

you, it'll eat us up like

4:12

brunch. Okay. How do we avoid

4:14

it? Well,

4:17

then you always kind of mum on how to

4:19

just sneak on by. It is

4:22

a creature like any other. Eyes,

4:24

ears, mouth, nose, hand and shoulders.

4:26

Here we go. It

4:31

is a creature as any other. It

4:33

has some powerful senses, but the senses

4:36

have limits. Yeah. So long. We don't

4:38

know where it is. There is no

4:40

point doing anything other than being careful

4:42

once if we see the creature, then

4:44

at least we know where to avoid.

4:47

I mean, like, yeah, I mean,

4:49

I can do a divine sense, but then it's

4:51

60 feet. Like, if it's not 60 feet, it's

4:53

too late. Yes. Well, you can't see in the

4:55

snow 60 feet right now. You can only see

4:57

like 30 feet. So divine

4:59

sense actually wouldn't be a bad idea that I

5:01

can, I can, I can divine sense, but it is

5:03

a 60 feet. I don't mean it might

5:06

be helpful. Okay. Okay. Well,

5:09

where do we, I guess, looking

5:12

around, I mean,

5:14

look, this is beyond my, I mean, Esmeralda what first thing

5:16

we need to do is get it to hell out of

5:18

car. I think we'll go on the small building.

5:22

All right. I want to, um, yeah, divine sense

5:24

while we walk to the small building. As

5:26

you pass, you've got to walk a bit

5:28

into the courtyard to get to the small

5:30

building. As you do that, you get a

5:32

better view of the large, you get a

5:34

better view of everything. Yeah. The large building.

5:36

First off, you can see there were once

5:38

too heavy wooden and stone

5:41

doors that would have stopped

5:43

wind and people from getting in and

5:46

out of this temple, but the doors

5:48

have since collapsed and now

5:50

people can freely go in and out of

5:52

the large building whenever they want. You can

5:54

see there are many holes and gaps in

5:56

the large building. So you could kind of

5:59

climb in really. This

6:01

smaller building is just as badly damaged, but

6:03

you can scramble in via one of the

6:05

many holes if you don't want to take

6:08

the main door for whatever reason. You

6:10

get a slightly better look at the

6:13

statue. The statue appears to be of

6:15

a person, humanoid of

6:17

some type, wearing robes, but you don't get any

6:19

details. You need to get right up to it

6:21

for details. You do however also

6:24

spot on the far side of the

6:26

courtyard, so to your left is the

6:28

big building. You have a small one, statues

6:30

ahead of you in the courtyard, past

6:32

the statue there appears to be another

6:34

bridge, but you're not sure where it

6:36

goes. You duck into

6:38

that smaller building. The first

6:41

thing you see there is the remains of,

6:43

there's no roof to this, so there's not

6:45

a lot, it's shelter from, not really heaps.

6:47

Yeah, some shelter mostly just from the wind.

6:49

You can see the first room you enter

6:52

has what was once a fireplace with a

6:54

chimney and flue. There

6:56

is the remains of a camp set up

6:59

here. The fireplace is

7:01

still, it was cleared recently enough

7:03

that the fireplace could be relit

7:06

now. You can see a

7:08

bedroll, a sack with some food,

7:11

and a couple of crates, oh

7:13

not crates, that'd be too elaborate.

7:15

Yeah. Actually just a bunch

7:17

of sacks. Some closed, some open. The open

7:19

one, literally the one open one, you

7:21

can see there's food inside of it. How

7:24

old does it look? I guess the

7:26

fireplace is pretty recent. You got one to expect? Yeah.

7:31

You think this can't be more than a

7:33

couple months old. The food is, it's been

7:35

in cold weather, so the food is preserved

7:37

a little bit longer than it might normally,

7:39

but some of the food here would have

7:41

definitely rotted if it had been here for

7:43

longer than a couple months. Okay, interesting. You

7:46

see, in the other facts there is monster

7:48

hunting supplies. There's Marilda, he

7:50

says, Van Richten. She

7:52

immediately begins replenishing her monster hunting

7:54

supplies from the sack. Nice. Umm,

7:58

uhh... It was a... I have

8:00

a headache. Yeah,

8:03

lemme uncommon you come down. Here

8:05

you arrive. Cool. I'm

8:07

I'm gonna be like I'm. Yes,

8:09

And I want to start just Omaha. I'm hungry

8:11

the effort on Sunday cause I eat. I'm of

8:14

that. Here

8:16

nice are not real. haven't really been paying

8:18

too much attention I think like a bit

8:20

of a mental focus on the I yelled

8:22

seems like it's trust think yeah little bit

8:24

of a C D C on the processor

8:27

city serve as an imbecile km as me

8:29

what did sees me this morning it is.

8:32

I heard the local call the

8:34

Peruvian marching pounds. Think

8:36

is one of. The. right?

8:40

So yeah it'll give you were

8:42

com. The consensus was that you're

8:44

eating whatever what it what what

8:46

delicious thing the my something on

8:48

your eating there would be ah

8:51

may be with their body talk

8:53

yeah Harman I am a dead

8:55

be some yep tend type foods

8:57

axel year they would be proper

8:59

pull tab at ten type foods.

9:01

There might be some preserves you

9:04

know me hold but nice There

9:06

might be some fruit which. Is

9:08

a bit a bit off to the

9:10

bar or out through good apple it

9:13

wasn't great. Oh my god Cracking open

9:15

an apple ten be much and just

9:17

as apple to a to be alive

9:19

because only some apples to or a

9:21

big wine skyn full of brandy and

9:24

combat I need to be not having

9:26

decision know to that or you for

9:28

your hotmail. ah what else Mogul A

9:30

may be different types of tinned food

9:33

as well like us one hundred kids

9:35

you pull that would open in a

9:37

cup. Sardines. And side of a maze

9:39

or a. sitter or

9:41

is it hurts to be fire is

9:43

is doing as morale is still going

9:46

through the monster hunting supplies see produces

9:48

and then for his to you pbs

9:50

ten silver bullets and ten cold iron

9:52

bowl for awesome called i'm both see

9:54

then once he gets to the bottom

9:56

one of the bags he calls that

9:58

you read does she produces a

10:00

leather bound notebook, he always leaves

10:02

these behind like fucking coins

10:05

out of his pants. She

10:08

starts flipping through it hurriedly. He

10:10

makes notes for the local area and then leaves

10:12

them behind. So this was definitely

10:15

Van Richten. This was definitely Van Richten.

10:17

It's his cipher. She says turning the

10:19

diary around to show you. So

10:22

we're in a shelter of kind at the moment?

10:24

Yeah, it's not great, but you can get a

10:26

fire going which will mean that you don't have

10:28

to make checks. Divine sense didn't sense

10:30

anything. Not within 60 feet of you. That's all I need

10:33

to know. Okay. Do

10:35

we start here? I just like to

10:37

the fire. Would it be safe? Yes,

10:39

but I mean how long are we going to spend here? Just

10:42

so we could have bearings. All right. Can

10:44

I knock down the light the fire? I think I have

10:46

a high end of survival. Have

10:49

I embarrassed myself in front of my

10:51

friends? You got... Yeah,

10:54

no, you light the fire. Okay. You

10:56

light the fire with time to prevent a

10:58

check. As Barrelda starts

11:00

deciphering the book, it

11:02

becomes apparent that Van Richten spent at least

11:05

a few days here, maybe a week in

11:07

total in this place, which gives you a

11:09

little bit of hope that you're safe from

11:11

the right field. It appears

11:13

that Van Richten took particular interest in

11:15

the statue. There's text

11:18

below the statue and he was trying to decipher

11:20

what was written there, but he didn't make a lot

11:22

of headway. There's kind of a slump down. Is there

11:24

anything like to sit upon or like a sacks of,

11:26

I don't know, anything I could... There's a bedroll, but

11:29

that's the best you got. That's pretty good. Just sitting

11:31

on a bedroll. I want to be like lazily like

11:33

in a gesturing with like an apple on my fork.

11:35

But I don't know if I actually have a fork

11:37

or anything. Yeah. Just kind of like...

11:39

Just trying to put an apple on your hand. Just trying

11:41

to think things through and really finding it hard to think.

11:44

Love that. Yeah. Okay.

11:48

Right. So we're here. There's a statue of... What

11:50

is the statue? What does the statue say? He's

11:53

been trying to decipher it, but he's unable to...

11:55

He doesn't know the language? No. What's

11:58

written there? She... She turns it

12:00

around and shows you Venrix and has copied it. Does

12:03

my eyes of the rune like the read

12:05

all writing does that? No, it doesn't actually

12:08

allow you to you look at it and

12:10

typically the way it works is as you're

12:12

it's kind of it happens in the like

12:14

periphery of your vision the Sigils rearrange themselves

12:16

so that you understand what's being written But

12:19

you see that in your periphery they

12:22

rearrange themselves Well, then when you look

12:24

directly at them, they turn back into

12:26

their original footage is Hey,

12:28

Ivan I cannot read read

12:30

this. There's old magic here Older

12:34

than who knows I know. I mean,

12:36

I don't know how much you know about the

12:38

I guess any Inadvertims

12:41

with deliberate pack that we've made but

12:43

I mean I can read I've spent I

12:46

mean one day I could read

12:48

anything. Yeah recently and now I can't read

12:50

this Do you

12:52

know did you did you previously speak

12:54

draconic? I write something down in

12:56

draconic and show it to you Say what it

12:58

says Hello Hector. It's

13:00

all works. Yeah. Hello Hector. Okay. Well,

13:02

then it's the writing not your not

13:05

your ability, which is good Yeah, I'm

13:07

a world are still standing the book.

13:09

Oh Falsely

13:11

a note in the margins falsely

13:13

named dead. She just you right

13:16

doesn't seem to want to leave the main

13:19

building Try to avoid okay, that's good to

13:21

know Which is the main building which

13:23

and the main building building on the other side of the

13:25

courtyard So that means we take the bridge, right?

13:29

Depending where the bridge takes us. No where else

13:31

to go. You see that or back

13:33

to kutri or the main building Yeah, well,

13:35

isn't it with a falsely named undead is

13:37

yeah, but if I were a Ancient

13:40

evil temple, I feel like I would be

13:42

spinning off the wraith So

13:47

the temple is underneath the main

13:49

building I mean I would say that is more

13:52

likely than the bridge Is anything

13:54

does he say if it what is it beyond the bridge

13:58

You know what? Yeah, he's probably sketched a map of the

14:00

area. Cool. Obviously

14:02

for the people at home, you can't see

14:04

this map. Yeah. Basically, it

14:07

just ruins, right? And we kind of got where

14:09

we are, which is kind of towards the

14:11

west side. There's the

14:13

bridge we came over towards the east, which

14:15

is now being shut off from

14:17

us. No, that's the other bridge. Or is that the other bridge?

14:19

Oh, okay. So the other bridge

14:21

kind of collapsed. Yeah, it doesn't look too hot.

14:24

Okay, so that's the bridge that we can't really

14:26

do anything with, because it's collapsed here and there's

14:28

nothing on the other side. Sweet. Okay,

14:31

so towards the west, we have the stairs coming

14:33

up to where we were, towards the east of

14:35

the bridge that leads back up by where. We've

14:37

got this statue in the middle there. Looks like

14:39

there's one tower on the building that is inhabited

14:42

by the Wraith. Yeah, the northeast, that's

14:45

where the Wraith is. We can go

14:47

further into the temple. There's like a

14:49

big old sundial or like a mosaic

14:51

design in the temple. And then

14:54

there's the statue that, where the markings were.

14:56

Is that the statue at the very end

14:58

of that? No, actually, that statue would not

15:00

be marked on this map. That

15:03

instead would say where that statue is, right

15:05

at the north, and basically as far as

15:07

you can get from where you are currently,

15:10

that would say entrance to the Amber Temple.

15:13

Okay, well then, as we're looking at

15:15

the map, yeah, where the Wraith is, which

15:17

is northeast, and then

15:19

further up towards the north, the very top is

15:21

this big old Amber Temple entrance. And I'm just

15:24

like, um, here's me. I

15:27

don't, actually, I think we could

15:29

avoid the... Yeah. And it's kind of

15:32

draw a line from the tower to

15:34

where it is, and we

15:36

could avoid it. She nods. She, it's

15:38

not something she was like, oh, do you think

15:40

this could help us? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

15:42

She has only just discovered this as well. Yeah,

15:44

I guess we could avoid it. And

15:47

Van Rijden says nothing about anything else in

15:50

the building. So where the tower is, where

15:52

the Wraith is, that's on the east side.

15:54

On the west side, that is marked as

15:56

library, just in quotation marks. So you get

15:59

the impression. It's

16:01

library, there was once books. In

16:06

that centre where you said the

16:08

sundial is, it says star pattern,

16:11

that's what that one says. And

16:14

then at the

16:16

far, it says entrance to the Amber Temple. Ok,

16:19

so we know the Amber Temple is, the

16:21

statue, is it worth perhaps looking at the

16:23

actual statue itself? We'll pass by it, might

16:26

as well. As Morelle denotes, there's no point

16:28

to not. Do we want to

16:30

just make a beeline? Yeah, take a torch, erecting from

16:32

the fire and let's go. You

16:35

make a torch, step out into the wind and it

16:37

immediately... Well that was stupid.

16:41

Throw it off into the window. You have it for when

16:43

you're inside I guess. Into the wind. It'll be really cold

16:45

in there. Yeah, alright, just keep, cheat it

16:47

I guess. You approach the statue. The

16:50

stone of this statue is older

16:52

and different to the stone of

16:54

the surrounding buildings. It looks like

16:56

everything here has been built around

16:59

it. The statue is of a

17:01

hooded figure with a mouth slightly

17:03

open and deep blackness within the

17:05

hood besides. Darker than

17:07

dark as if light cannot escape its

17:10

depths. At the base of

17:12

the statue is a plaque made of

17:14

solid amber with runes carved into it.

17:16

The runes are beyond

17:18

translation for any of you. And

17:21

then I need to make perception checks for

17:24

both of you at disadvantage. No, it's good.

17:27

Hector, you

17:29

can hear the

17:32

statue speaking. I'm going to rub

17:34

my snout. Do

17:37

you not hear that? Anyone? Hang

17:39

on. Can't we march over the wind? Shh.

17:42

I want to listen out for what

17:45

the wisps are saying. I know I shouldn't but I'm

17:47

going to. Oh yeah, clever Hector. Listen to the wisps.

17:50

Pip, you still can't hear anything. Neither

17:52

can Esmeralda. Hector, if you want

17:54

to make another check you're going to have to

17:56

get closer. Hang on. You can tell it's coming

17:58

from the hood. So you need to

18:00

put your, you need to get your ear closer.

18:03

Okay. Now I, okay, so

18:05

that, Zamit knows that

18:07

stupid silly. Yeah, yeah.

18:09

And all the alarm bells are just like

18:11

blaring off. Oh yeah. Now for Hector. Uh-huh.

18:14

He has to come here, he has to

18:16

learn information. Maybe some

18:18

of those alarm bells are also blaring, but

18:20

I don't know if I shouldn't. Yeah.

18:23

That's kind of on you, unfortunately. I can't

18:26

determine that for you. Plus

18:28

it's a, you know. Well,

18:30

there's a darkness growing steadily

18:32

inside Hector. Might be influencing

18:34

him a little bit. He's like, and there, you

18:36

know, there's a certain come downs of certain things.

18:38

It does involve a bit of mental

18:41

fog and irref and marching power that

18:43

does terrible things. You have one determination

18:46

of if magic is evil. He's

18:48

actually such a curious little boy.

18:50

Yeah. I, hang on, wait one minute. And

18:52

I just want to put my ear, so that I can hang on,

18:54

hang on a second, Dave. Are you stopping me? Yes,

18:57

I think I am. If I say you

18:59

step, if you are getting close

19:01

enough that you could almost be touching it, then

19:03

I'm grabbing you by the back of your shirt

19:05

and pulling you back. Hey, how about we don't

19:07

listen to the mysterious evil

19:09

whispers coming from the statue? I

19:12

mean, it's whispers, they

19:14

have a good. If I

19:16

had written something important about this, right?

19:19

Yes, could be. Esmeralda gives you this

19:21

look. Ooh, I don't know.

19:23

Maybe, maybe you should be putting

19:25

it there, David. Like you can't. Esmeralda's

19:28

like a wild card. I

19:31

understand, but if Anderson said, is there

19:34

a good trick, Esme, that this is

19:36

important? It was important enough that

19:38

he at least tried to decipher what was

19:40

written down here. Maybe it'll help with your-

19:42

He said nothing of whispers though. You're already

19:44

harboring one evil god, Hector. I

19:47

don't think you should harbor more. But,

19:50

it's your destiny. All

19:52

you need to do is have some faith. I suppose. I

19:55

said she will protect me. I

19:57

put my ear to the statue. You

19:59

learn- a terrible secret. You

20:06

learn the day of your

20:09

mentor's death. Who

20:11

is Hector's mentor? Pip.

20:14

Pip? Hector you learn the day of Pip's death.

20:17

Uh oh. Now when you say

20:19

I learn the death of my mentor, do I understand

20:21

that that is my mentor or do I understand that

20:23

I learned the day of Pip's death?

20:26

The secret is framed as the day

20:28

of your mentor's death and

20:30

it's Pip's. And then I get a vision

20:32

or something of Pip's? No, they just... A

20:34

statue speaks it to you. He

20:36

speaks it to me. The statue speaks it to you. No

20:39

one else hears it? No, just you. My

20:41

eyes widen. Is it a date or

20:43

a vision? Like in the

20:45

vision, is it a description of how or

20:47

is it just specific time? It's not how,

20:50

it's a day and time. You

20:52

know the exact year, the exact day, the exact

20:55

time. I'm not

20:57

giving that to you, but you know

20:59

it. Okay. Okay. Do

21:01

I know... Okay. Is

21:04

that... This isn't like

21:06

a prophecy where there's a bit of wiggle

21:08

room. This is set in stone. Pip will

21:10

die. Yes. Do I know... Is

21:13

it a recent day? Is it like... Is

21:15

it close? Um... It's...

21:20

Am I like, I'm worried or I'm

21:22

like, I'm... It's sad. It's

21:24

closer than you wish. Okay. Cool, cool, cool,

21:27

cool, cool. You would... You

21:29

are upset by how soon it

21:31

is. Oh my god. Okay.

21:35

Learn anything, Hector? Um,

21:38

not really. Okay. Well...

21:41

You know what? You got one detail at the

21:43

end. Violently. I want

21:45

to look at you with a lot of just like, I don't know, this

21:47

23:48

Okay, I sprawled my stouts. Statue's a bust.

23:50

Keep moving. I want to look down at

23:53

the writing of it. Anything? You can

23:55

tell that the writing, you don't know how you could tell, but

23:57

you can tell that the writing is in the same language that

23:59

was just spoken. working to you but you've been given no

24:02

special understanding of what's written there still.

24:05

It's just gibberish. Yeah.

24:09

Yeah. Well, you don't feel inhabited

24:11

in you? Not

24:14

inhabited. Okay, that's great. That's

24:17

good. Let's head to the... That's a win. Temple?

24:20

Head to the major building. Who

24:24

doesn't think you like it violently? Mentor?

24:30

I like to imagine as you're entering,

24:32

as the last of you enters the

24:34

building, head to you, monitor yourself, mentor.

24:36

Mentor? What the fuck's

24:39

Pip got to mentor you about? So

24:41

would you like to head straight to the star pattern

24:43

or do you want to divert and have a look

24:45

at the library? I'm assuming you're not going to the

24:47

wraith room. No, no, no, no, no. And honestly, the

24:49

library, I think if it's... This

24:52

is a you and Esme decision. Yeah. I

24:54

might... You're reeling? Reeling and maybe

24:57

absent-mindedly ask you like, so how do you learn

24:59

about monster hunting? Well, for

25:02

me, a very

25:04

angry, very dwarf

25:07

with a sailor's mouth. A

25:10

largely kid. Dwarf with a sailor's

25:12

mouth? Yeah, sort of came

25:14

to the orphanage. I grew up in and

25:16

grabbed me and that was

25:18

it, really. You are literally midway

25:21

talking about Hardcastle. When you see

25:23

three notches in one of the

25:25

many pillars, stone pillars, inside this

25:28

temple as you're walking

25:30

through and you immediately flash back

25:32

to Hardcastle, get your head

25:34

on straight. Right. Mark

25:36

yourself when you're getting into an area you don't know.

25:39

Shoot for a second, Hector. I'll

25:43

go over to it and check it. Can I

25:45

tell that this is a Hardcastle specific? If you

25:47

look at the three notches, then you look at

25:49

one further along and you... Sorry, one back the

25:52

way you came and you see two notches on

25:54

it and you look at the first one and

25:56

you see one notch on it. This is how

25:58

Hardcastle marks his way. tallies so that

26:00

he knows which marker he's at. This is a

26:02

bit of the School of the Gentlemen that I

26:04

never followed because I never saw the point, but

26:07

that's Hardcastle. That's Hardcastle. He was

26:09

here, School of the Gentlemen. He was

26:11

here. How was he here? School

26:13

of the Gentlemen had your mentor. Yes,

26:16

I studied at the School of the

26:18

Gentlemen. Esme studied at

26:20

the School of the Scholar. There's the School

26:22

of the Noble, Bear, Harpoon. There's

26:24

like five main ones and then hundreds

26:27

and hundreds of others. With

26:29

every monster hunter who gets it into their

26:31

head that they have a specific style of monster

26:33

hunting. And then they make a school. It's

26:36

a matter. Heck, you create a school. But yes,

26:38

you create a school of monster hunting or you

26:40

don't. But Hardcastle was

26:43

here. I'd like to start looking around,

26:45

avoiding the wraith room still. I'd

26:48

like to start looking around for any other

26:50

evidence of him. Maybe the next thing, the

26:52

next memory that hits you is how he

26:54

always... Every memory of Hardcastle

26:56

begins with him jabbing you painfully in the

26:59

chest. Get your head on straight. A

27:04

mnemonic device like a tap on your

27:06

forehead, just like, right. This is what

27:08

I heard of. Get your

27:10

head on straight. If they got a library, you've got to read

27:13

it. You

27:15

immediately wander into the library. If

27:17

you got a library,

27:19

you've got to read it. Is

27:21

that what you got taught? Yes,

27:23

that's... What? There

27:26

is snow covering the ground.

27:28

This library would have once had

27:31

beautiful stained glass windows that viewed

27:33

out down from Mount Gakas to

27:35

a gorgeous site of Barovia below.

27:37

But all of the windows have

27:40

been shattered inwards now. You can

27:42

see shards of glass mixed in

27:44

with the snow. And

27:47

possibly at the same time, possibly over

27:49

ages, possibly... Who knows? Yeah.

27:52

All of the shelves where the

27:54

books are have been knocked, thrown,

27:56

torn asunder, and the books themselves

27:59

are destroyed. it on the ground

28:01

as well. The snow leave no

28:03

trace. Me, I did. Always refreshed.

28:05

It's always freezing and snowing up

28:07

here, but the books and the

28:09

glass tell a different story. Someone

28:11

came through recently. Well I say

28:13

resembling at some point within the last year

28:16

I guess they can I see. I mean

28:18

I get the so much so in here

28:20

to be hard to tell but as a

28:22

possible to see which books have been light

28:24

like are the obviously there would be books

28:26

in chaos see out of this some books

28:28

that like seem like they've been may be

28:30

taken away. yes specifically alphabetize Of that I

28:32

is alphabetize has you see free A. Side.

28:40

Effect. On sight,

28:44

To see our what is left

28:46

of some of the books have

28:48

been alphabetize. Okay, I'd like to

28:50

get those books and just to

28:53

see what he was reading says

28:55

not a lot Syria It's written

28:57

in a bunch of different ancient

28:59

scripts, but they are books on

29:01

a cell. Awful things, not anything

29:04

specific, rituals, not entities, not magical

29:06

items or types of spells, but

29:08

all of from Cas or it's

29:10

are. A collection is literally a

29:12

collection. of things that people information the

29:15

people with not meant to known that

29:17

would be door I yelled yes yes

29:19

you are once again you can see

29:21

the books a so badly damaged that

29:23

any information they once had arranged is

29:25

now lost at i think of be

29:27

like on your heel yeah yeah yeah

29:30

a few. And I will like if

29:32

you hi handsome up I would try and

29:34

peer at them and rebuild the I had

29:36

maybe of of isn't going to report them

29:38

here because I hate when I read look

29:40

at it and realize is nothing of death

29:42

the me I had to tell him but

29:44

ties as to what his alphabetize alphabetize alphabetized

29:46

three A's either alphabetized not only within language

29:48

but by language. A set of this all

29:50

comes before him. Scrutiny of this that in

29:52

a less deal in between the two am

29:54

I yeah that isn't reading the covers and

29:56

that gap why would you want to fix

29:58

her? I don't under the. We shouldn't be.

30:00

I'd like to like look up every

30:02

single one of these books is heretical

30:04

wind in some different way. The the

30:07

law he says this is terrible that

30:09

establishes this is Dixie. More terrible news

30:11

to be those two were pretty best.

30:13

You find one of the book soon

30:15

as you visit him from his book

30:17

within the worship of nerve doesn't penny

30:19

of one of the books is a

30:21

collection of basically essentially the opposite of

30:23

loves hate letters between neurons and sandia

30:25

that are believed to be made of

30:27

year and well I'm just missing from.

30:29

Photos, propaganda propaganda. I guess if

30:31

a despot him or these are

30:33

the opposite of what I'm gender

30:35

we should get soon possibly be

30:37

touching them once again two packs

30:39

and also father destroyed said the

30:41

information is on that nothing real

30:43

see get a little say and

30:46

sex as I'd like some of

30:48

it as maybe like of course

30:50

the most a monster hunters tom

30:52

to try and hot the biggest

30:54

monster imbroglio. as May nods and

30:56

you see her eyes glanced back

30:58

out the door to. Where

31:00

you need to go to add to the entrance

31:02

and you can see he's rocking from foot to

31:04

foot of a dumb your to. Mentors,

31:08

A post very much on that would affect I

31:10

to they know each other. He. Never mentioned

31:12

van Rectum. I do not know of any meeting

31:14

but they have had the but I mean it's

31:17

possible I give like the room and album but

31:19

glance over and then in a rubbing my snout

31:21

and looked as a suppose we should. Just

31:24

had. The for him is he said the

31:26

happened it was the mark anything your use oil

31:28

we should get embroiled in have any. For.

31:30

Nauseous and to san rectum brings his

31:32

own books where he got. His

31:36

safari with the school of the gentleman

31:38

is such a chaotic stay out of

31:40

thirty school there. Ah yes was it

31:43

would have he have learned anything? I

31:45

mean. When. He might have investigated this

31:47

area but or by his on notes I'm

31:49

guessing he did nothing. There was much. he

31:51

had both discover and his podcast with Have

31:53

any. hard to

31:55

cancel his be gone not bringing

31:57

bush he said extra space is

31:59

for more were Yeah, exactly. No,

32:01

no, he'd have a system. A

32:04

sort of system. Yeah, I'm gonna...

32:06

And notice the notches. Yeah, well

32:08

that's sort of like breadcrumbs to

32:10

tell your way back. Which

32:12

sometimes is useful, but I mean in a building like

32:15

this you can figure out the way in and out.

32:18

He does it almost compulsively. Yeah, absolutely.

32:20

It's useful in a maze or if

32:23

you're dealing with like anything plain or

32:25

maybe where, you know, non-euclidean

32:28

space, but to do it in a

32:30

cottage. It's so funny

32:32

to imagine going to like a little village somewhere

32:34

and it's just like a ghost in a house

32:36

but he comes in your front door and just

32:38

slams the axe into the wall. Thanks, buddy. Okay.

32:40

Tell you what though, you'd be glad when you

32:42

come into the cottage and then you look around

32:44

and it's got a million rooms now you'd be

32:46

glad you're marked with those notches. So

32:49

we head to the... Yeah, let's do that.

32:51

So you said it as a walking towards.

32:53

You said a school

32:55

of gentlemen, but he only trained

32:57

you? Yeah, well, I

32:59

mean he... One-on-one? Well,

33:03

so he trained me and

33:05

my training was finished and

33:08

then he was also a

33:10

member of the Sharpshark companions. He

33:12

sort of did both, but we mostly

33:15

stuck to monster hunting and

33:17

then sort

33:20

of once my training was complete, well,

33:22

it's not as though we split up. He would go off

33:25

sometimes and ramble. That's just what he did. I

33:27

would go do my own thing, monster hunt by myself,

33:29

but we'd meet up occasionally and then one day he

33:32

didn't. He never came back and it

33:34

was expected for you to take on

33:38

to train someone else? That's kind of how

33:40

it works. Interesting. But

33:42

I never picked up a mentee.

33:46

Yeah. Yeah.

33:51

We had the funeral at the

33:55

Hardcastle in the Fort Rock Isles,

33:58

the family seat And the...

34:00

yeah, suffered companions A sort of thought.

34:02

Well, With direct. Cohen

34:04

I join them. Are.

34:07

Sort of with a monster hunter first you

34:09

know what I mean years in in in

34:11

a way so they said they wanted you

34:13

to to they recruited used for their on

34:15

a better than us and to press yes

34:17

and if you preferred this. For they

34:19

said I'd sworn an oath, which I had

34:21

this, but. And that it was for lice.

34:24

This. But was it's tend to do. Enough.

34:29

Yeah. The

34:34

deficit disorders and they in in

34:36

and say they hit a funeral

34:38

they said were yeah what's next

34:40

pip where are we going I

34:42

said i'm going nowhere with you

34:44

then some other words the said

34:46

some harsh words buy from them

34:48

from both from okay. Haven't.

34:51

In seen them mean within

34:53

a high The since I

34:55

mean. That sooner Easy. Yeah,

34:57

I mean you would. It. Was

34:59

an ugly. I mean

35:01

you probably buried in a. Coffin

35:03

full of ass, not his foot. Slops

I'm ammunition afford smear it

35:16

mean it was am. Is

35:18

a sooner You lost your use, your

35:20

mental ah, you were. I

35:23

mean, when he's back, apparently. Sadly,

35:25

most yes, even if he's in, he's

35:27

He'll probably be. vinyl. Direct.

35:29

Yes it would be down there fighting and

35:31

screaming. so let's get to it. Costs a

35:34

you set Amber Tamblyn to explore their is

35:36

in his never thought of. Training.

35:39

And he put he has. No. Not.

35:42

Really? As. I

35:45

don't have you realize this about me. I get

35:47

Roman. I'm not very poor through sorry armed Yes,

35:49

you're at I were you is us May you'd

35:51

ever thought about. Adam

35:54

training. The. Next

35:56

month thought. to

35:58

be honest my tutelage

36:01

is not yet complete. So I

36:05

have but one final task

36:07

to complete and then Van

36:10

Richten, I mean these things are not you know

36:13

set in stone there is no governing

36:15

body ensuring that I'm properly licensed. What

36:17

is your final I guess exam for

36:20

lack of a bit of it? I

36:22

must kill a within monster

36:25

hunting we call them Laird the

36:27

creatures creatures who once

36:30

within their place of power have abilities

36:33

beyond what a normal one might

36:35

have. Okay and is that what

36:37

you'll final exam? Exams,

36:40

right? I didn't have a final exam.

36:42

Dorek said one day you're good kid. Hey,

36:46

head on the spike, you're a

36:49

good kid. You're done. I'll never

36:51

forget. Kind

36:58

of came out of the blue of a

37:00

monster. Alpha the ties, alpha the ties, his

37:02

voice is changing. Alpha

37:04

the ties. Once

37:08

the groucho marksification of him began, there

37:10

was a link of a back. He

37:14

wanted to find like all monster hunters

37:16

he wanted to find a place to

37:18

die quietly. They sail out to sea.

37:21

Try to fight the big guy in

37:23

the sea. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I

37:26

guess it is a noble cause trying to

37:29

go from place to place and reading

37:31

the world of terrible creatures. Yeah, well

37:33

I suppose so. Step above

37:36

the adventurer that's

37:39

for sure. Ed May nods.

37:41

I cannot believe he called

37:43

you adventurer. And you. I

37:46

don't think he met me. I think

37:48

he said you're cool. Yeah,

37:50

yeah. Adventures. None of us are adventurous.

37:55

She does. May spits on the ground. I

37:58

think we all spit in the ground. here

38:00

Adam. You know if

38:02

you want a job done sloppily, that's who

38:04

you call an inventor. If you want a

38:06

job done properly, if you want somebody who

38:08

has a system, you call a monster hunter.

38:11

It's the ads that you put out. They're

38:13

angry, angry, bitter ads. I

38:18

asked for the back of your back. Suppose

38:20

you have a lot to teach. What did

38:23

they say? I guess. A good

38:26

ad tells someone that your product

38:28

can cure cancer, but a great

38:30

ad tells you the other guy's

38:32

product will cause cancer. Yeah, yeah,

38:35

yeah. That's every monster hunter. What

38:37

your monster hunted properly? Don't hire

38:39

an adventurer. Pick me in the

38:41

ring. It's like a woodcut of

38:44

me giving a thumbs up. Woodcut?

38:46

Oh my god! Your

38:48

posters are so expensive. You're

38:51

paying for quality. Exactly. And

38:53

then I come into the town. I

38:55

thought it out. I think I actually wrote

38:57

down actually somewhere. Where

39:00

the fuck is it? I am so excited

39:03

for you to go through all of this.

39:05

All you gotta do is you gotta kill

39:07

three monster hunters. That pays for the... I

39:09

said three monsters and that pays for the

39:11

advertising. Exactly. Everything else is profit. I just

39:14

him. I say it's another one

39:16

of his acronyms. Identify monster. Decide

39:18

on a price. Assess situation. Track

39:20

monster. Hunt monster. Accept payment. Move

39:23

on. Wow. For

39:26

some reason it's a bit reminiscent of the dentist's

39:30

from it's always

39:32

funny. I just

39:34

him. I love

39:36

acronyms. I hold

39:39

like maybe one of the last three

39:41

A's. Three A's. Ah. I'm just flipping

39:44

through. Why am I on the ground?

39:46

Anyway. So the Ida

39:50

Sam. It's just different from what an adventurer does.

39:52

An adventurer arrives, Fucks

39:55

around, usually finds out. Sometimes doesn't.

39:57

Yeah that's true. Then They stick

39:59

around all. The woods and it's

40:01

a it's a nightmare and even

40:03

if the Island Adventure Company it's

40:05

the same shit or get away

40:07

we need to move on cause

40:09

willa yeah head of that It

40:11

had to the Edwards's And for

40:13

the Amber Temple you pass that

40:15

star patents. You can see piles

40:17

and columns in this room. This

40:19

is a grand. It's obviously some

40:21

sort of meeting or ritual. A

40:23

whole this would be were presumably

40:25

whatever this temple is was built

40:27

for. Whatever that is happens here.

40:29

So tiles. On columns in this

40:31

room are arranged with a clear

40:33

purpose. Snow this is Ruth There

40:35

was once a don't ceiling to

40:37

this but it's been broken awaits

40:39

and snow now covers the for

40:41

like it covers the fourth most

40:43

of this building it indicates. Stare

40:45

at. You can see purposeful deaths

40:47

in the ceiling for liked to

40:49

see to of once spilled in

40:51

and you can see that that

40:53

those gaps in the ceilings corresponded

40:55

with the star patton on the

40:58

ground. So something about light coming.

41:00

In would have been part of whatever

41:02

happened here would have a ritual but

41:04

right now looking at the star patton

41:06

you are you are unable to make

41:08

heads or tails of it. Well yeah

41:10

right so they would have been lots

41:12

of poor down and lit up some

41:14

of the snow here and whatever this

41:16

was his from before for to explain

41:18

something means is that was the morning

41:20

Lord Rice be on. That was a

41:22

mean. You're part of throws. It

41:24

had roots though. Parts. Of the

41:27

gas before Bravia yes it's true.

41:29

If it's like at them discover

41:31

this is is that the talking

41:33

scour the he he was from

41:35

performers you it me some something's

41:38

perhaps the buildings the same. As

41:40

and whatever was a minute, there was an.

41:43

Temperature here? He probably wasn't.

41:46

A recently for. A General.

41:50

Because none of the I'm A cannot

41:52

receive years. That's. For

41:54

they have had with yet when

41:56

this predates drawn. Definitely. Way

41:59

that means. I don't know be iconography. is

42:01

it like star base or is like son

42:03

base as in. You. Do is just

42:05

like a morning lord or like beginners media

42:08

knows and pannier. It's very much all to

42:10

do with the morning sun all the with

42:12

the know the brightness get good boy thought

42:14

a whole nice. Ah, you think

42:16

both. Oh. Would you

42:18

get oh my god not telling us nothing? We've

42:20

got nothing at all may not not not I

42:22

tell me or something sides but the hiring a

42:25

good of would over know ways to reduce your

42:27

with. No. I

42:32

don't have any kind of the can

42:34

do anything. Oh My. God. Thank.

42:37

God do. I

42:39

couldn't handle that. You already took the

42:41

laws are we going without like adult

42:44

Iran and you get in on this

42:46

and I only have one nine never

42:48

a plan on using and another not

42:50

air at all as I just took

42:52

it for the you could now do

42:54

we know is to were aware who

42:57

says ah yes you. Work.

42:59

Out. Like I said that it uses both

43:01

star and that a sorry the stars, the

43:03

moon and the sun. You know that it's

43:05

not in worship of a god. Something else

43:08

is going on here for this is not

43:10

for worshipping. This is. For. There's

43:12

a practical reason for this. Ah,

43:14

some sort of clock? Oh. Oh

43:17

it's my an and clocks like

43:19

this is the sort o'clock were

43:22

since it's inception this clock has

43:24

not gone round once was a

43:26

so long one. This is not

43:29

to. Gardens. Or religious

43:31

thing to this is actually wait hang on

43:33

a second brushing away snores. I just kind

43:35

of I collect that back like little crazy

43:37

man you know leveling the juices kicker maggie

43:40

and said push roll away or eggs and

43:42

ham if you will actually so you can

43:44

imagine if you says the guy had close

43:46

when I point up there for the flick

43:48

through the roof this light coming in and

43:50

he would hit this piece missing here and

43:53

and brush the star way he is exactly

43:55

so This this symbol he has that would

43:57

be is kind of like come to a

43:59

sundial. Yeah yeah so you know

44:01

that sex the day right? Yes,

44:03

it because that this but looking

44:05

around the pillars of thing is

44:07

hasn't done one rotation. Or. To

44:10

tracking. You. Can't thought is impossible to

44:12

tell does not enough he a way I

44:14

don't know. But. It's it's coming

44:16

down. It's. Counting. Down.

44:19

Getting them counting down how much time

44:21

as bossed impossible to tell, have no

44:24

I don't, I don't even know it

44:26

stopped, ah, but it. It. Starts here

44:28

and then it would. You'd move and it would

44:30

be years and then it would rather have. Down.

44:34

Could work. Hooker. Not.

44:36

Stop watches. Do

44:40

is this is the disappearance which is go

44:42

up that they get they do and timers

44:44

go down Attacks it's a timer for is

44:47

a timer. It's. A time or

44:49

it is probably for when the chicken

44:51

is done as brother keeps me to

44:53

since I guess yes. Right

44:55

as I could hope that when

44:57

of the chicken see this is

45:00

world are walking ahead of the

45:02

to of uses. Doesn't read a

45:04

novel? Fingers crossed, a specific fame

45:06

and dial people can set the

45:08

other end. You see there is

45:10

a big stone walls and doors

45:12

next to the doors though. There.

45:15

Is a corpse. It has been

45:17

here long enough to become mummified

45:19

in the ice and snow. Any

45:21

details of the person have been

45:23

long lost to the mummification process.

45:25

In his hands is an iron

45:28

hammer and chisel. Okay, I'd like

45:30

to. Get. closer and i don't

45:32

touch it for just have a little

45:34

investigate can i just divine since he's

45:36

not dead but you can now just

45:38

zeus you are close enough now to

45:40

be east the race look at a

45:42

or a and like the sun setting

45:44

or that are actually out and up

45:46

and elsewhere around just arrived just or

45:48

author the thank the gods of who

45:50

is corpses thankfully just the cool that

45:52

is a good news as that sissy

45:54

close but wow weeds out when we'd

45:56

go what else or that dab at

45:58

him to easier to something discover on

46:00

him, but he's slumped next

46:03

to the doors. The doors are made

46:05

out of iron, almost entirely of iron.

46:07

They're heavy, no sorry, wood and iron.

46:09

They're heavy and thick. You

46:12

can see there is little marks in

46:14

the wall and a bit into the

46:16

door, carved over and over and

46:18

over again in many, many different languages. It

46:21

looks like someone hurriedly was carving this

46:24

possibly as they died. The carvings

46:26

become over time more and more

46:28

loose and more lighter

46:31

and obviously both rushed but the

46:33

person carving was weaker and weaker

46:35

as they went on and on.

46:37

You can see in several different

46:40

languages, if you can read several

46:42

different languages, you can both read.

46:44

For you, it's every word you

46:46

can make out. If you seek

46:49

honor or power, turn back, for

46:51

these walls hold naught but doom.

46:54

In many vessels below, the

46:56

darkness shelters a timeless evil.

46:59

The danger is an infection

47:01

of malevolent divinity. Our

47:03

arrogance and folly forged this

47:05

place into our prison. Leave

47:08

now before our damnation becomes yours.

47:10

ALICE I'm saying that out

47:12

loud. ALICE I'd like to stare

47:14

at the door for a long time, and then

47:17

stare at Hector. ALICE But not like

47:19

I'm looking at Hector for confirmation of

47:21

anything. Like I'm looking at Hector to

47:23

remind myself of why I've come this

47:25

far. ALICE Not really here for honor

47:27

nor power. ALICE There's nothing

47:30

about escape. ALICE Esme is just

47:32

nodding along. ALICE Nothing

47:34

ventured. ALICE Nothing gained. ALICE Yeah.

47:37

ALICE I guess, uh,

47:39

probably me and Esme both. ALICE

47:41

Pushed the door open. ALICE No.

47:43

You put a hand and you

47:45

begin pulling on the door, and

47:47

the door opens easily. Almost as

47:49

if something is helping you open it. ALICE That's

47:52

my help, or was that just me?

47:54

ALICE It was just you. The

47:57

doors open too easily. It's

48:00

uncomfortable. Beyond

48:02

the doors is a set of stairs that lead

48:04

you deep into the heart of Mount Gakkis. Pip,

48:08

if you want to turn back, I

48:11

would not call you a coward. I

48:15

look down into the darkness and I look back

48:17

out the door to the howling wind. A

48:20

bit late for it now, I think. Turning

48:22

back? Ain't that the truth?

48:26

Lead the way. The stairs

48:28

descend 500 feet into

48:31

Mount Gakkis before finally plateauing

48:33

out. And you have not

48:35

taken more than, on that staircase, you have not

48:37

taken more than three steps when the

48:41

door closes behind you. You

48:43

don't feel like you're trapped, but

48:46

you do feel like you're in

48:48

danger. Huh,

48:58

how old are you? Hi,

49:21

a caretaker from the drop,

49:23

kind of, but not just a flashy,

49:25

all summer kind of, but just a

49:27

tiny little

49:30

tree that's

49:33

a little too big. Get another kind of,

49:35

but most importantly at King's Island, you'll find

49:38

for the fun of it. Kind

49:40

of fun. Don't wait to start

49:42

your fun this season. King's

49:44

Island is now open weekend. He

49:53

cast powers the world's best matches. Here's a

49:56

shot that we were caught. The

50:00

late bloomers tend to have more curiosity.

50:02

They tend to have more resilience. There

50:05

are stories and mythologies that this country

50:07

has woven around. This is a cowardly

50:09

crime. These are the leaders of the

50:11

hometown heroes and lost leaders. And we

50:13

are a system of animal mechanisms to

50:16

just be like worry and a police.

50:18

What if everything we've been taught is

50:20

just all wrong? What's worse

50:22

more than this fear right now?

50:25

And that rising after

50:27

failure is part of the glory

50:29

of being a human being. ACAST
