really feel like he got overlooked

4:41

for acting awards for this performance

4:43

because he's amazing in it. but

4:45

he sort of wanders around the

4:47

movie with this kind of bewildered.

4:50

Look what he'd look on his face, which is you

If I was aca from looking says boost the view

16:53

as if is the i implore I'd probably be coming

16:55

off the top rope. On to people. Slain

16:59

when they least expect the other people's red carpet

17:01

premieres yeah you can often maybe like I was

17:03

Sf or and I know you must be here

17:05

for the celebrity premier deal. I get what you

17:08

doing on that top right of course and you

17:10

buy are you wearing a dressing gown assume your

17:12

suit is under their new ah yes of course

17:14

my seat and then since the or of a

17:16

sudden of with a rope they will deliver where

17:18

he bought from home yeah if he strung a

17:20

between T says came. Out say I'm instead of having

17:22

a fully red carpet they also had a sand carpet.

17:24

Which is pretty good while i axles

17:27

and gas and some just said sunday

17:29

sense that someone with now i risked

17:31

his style sand and in a typical

17:33

sand was a direct is he I

17:36

knew the words you know the words

17:38

minute oh the her the know what

17:40

team he know. Bay. Area.

17:44

Is stuff. Right Hearts

17:46

I thought. Why

17:49

you hate outside size? Style

17:51

isn't it? So I think I think the

17:54

problem is Ray I is. I.

17:57

Also, I would say probably not. It's probably

17:59

not as. The heart I fired more could have. Turned

18:01

to he like a. Lot of geology

18:03

and it you know you know what languages the

18:06

tolkien. Geology is to

18:08

frank d her but. Am

18:10

I making the sale? Sure,

18:13

As as Blimey know what I'm the only

18:16

me is made myself going on it and

18:18

some for yourself. Yeah, I think the Ims

18:20

probably I'm. So.

18:22

Like fundamentally broken by

18:25

irony. Dial. Main Unable

18:27

to enjoy anything that presents itself

18:29

entirely. Seriously that sincere or they

18:31

sincere or like thinks it's it's

18:33

good because it is the like

18:36

an eye on that. Was sincere.

18:38

Yeah. That's to remain, not defences

18:41

actually. And I can happen. It's a real

18:43

story. You're saying if there is a speculative

18:45

six cents, you can't have the speculative six

18:47

and be entirely sincere? I say I feel

18:49

it needs. To have a level of self

18:51

awareness to meet him, enjoy it. and that's

18:53

if that's a full math upon me that's

18:55

on an been yeah but I feel like

18:58

I would fines. Because

19:00

like before, one of the funniest things to me is

19:02

making fun of lot of the rings because of how

19:04

seriously it takes itself. Yes, and I

19:06

feel like dune would fall into the same category

19:08

as Mode of The Rings. For.

19:10

Me: Sad: Okay, I

19:13

remember my original say and it is

19:15

a long time ago, but it's called

19:17

the Tyranny of Irony or something like

19:19

that. S That's my, that's my eyes. And

19:22

it's that's how we can enjoy

19:24

sincere things Because irony has. Such

19:26

a crushing grin on the way we

19:28

view everything, but I feel I feel

19:30

when something is sort of slightly inherently

19:32

ridiculous. like I'm. Gandalf.

19:35

Yeah walking around so I hope it in

19:37

or. Timothy

19:39

Zalmay as of course his character

19:41

as Exxon Marek this is now

19:43

what allowance is probably one of

19:45

his surnames walking around the sandworms

19:47

town of like whatever Arab muslims

19:49

that Yemen flag yeah no that

19:51

wasn't insists see like any plots

19:54

at Eton Sunday is not seen

19:56

Dean one so I could tell

19:58

him literally anything. Yeah. I

20:00

feel like when something is sort of so

20:02

inherently ridiculous, I feel like a needs some

20:04

sort of acknowledgement of that or else. I

20:07

am. I do it in my head. And

20:09

then I would have undermines it. Means.

20:12

Your Head sign. Ask. Those

20:14

you have lots of laughs about and else I see.

20:16

yeah and I have watched all they Soames and I

20:18

did enjoy them. Yeah, so they. Are

20:22

I find out what's the in

20:24

20:26

web? Jake's yes, Say that before

20:28

25:19

the old trade the train driver

25:21

from a previous adventure. Sure I'm

25:24

ah and ah. Basically.

25:27

Introduce him to my butler. Be.

25:29

A. Success. No,

25:31

I didn't. Like

25:33

go for a drink with him and tell him

25:35

and ghost stories conceive, eat and that he's quite

25:37

interested in. It's.

25:44

Soothing. For him to meet someone who

25:46

can sort of control them the numbing then

25:48

ah and on so I thought said to

25:51

him hey. If you ever need us.

that Mississippi or I go on

The train driver with of

26:10

his prissy massively send five

26:12

five. Okay, so yes

this: you eventually tracked down the

26:21

train driver. Yeah, and it's haven't

26:23

I. You sidle up to him

26:26

alongside of the ball with the

26:28

the story prepared about the meaner

26:30

offering of hope the guys. As

26:33

soon as he sees you, he

26:35

downs his drink and hastily leaves.

26:39

Clearly. Terrified. He.

26:41

Will not be talking

26:44

to her. The. Blue

26:46

coats? right? About.

26:55

saying there are there are forces out

26:57

there who I'm who who have more

26:59

persuasive way ways and means is. Stressing

27:12

Who? but and he? he was just working

27:14

effort in the body was working at the

27:16

cards to do that. Sam when he signed

27:18

this point the last time. You

32:00

encountered Kelly and or. Was

32:03

on the roof of the dimmest

32:05

32:19

the break the roof the dimmest as

32:21

dimension and she was screaming. I think

32:23

cod got one line out in that

32:25

adventure but it was in a voice

32:27

that I regretted. It

32:31

as being very raspy. But what

32:33

you have learned since then is

32:35

that she is cause a member

32:37

of the brightness. News. With

32:39

you follow. Well

32:42

I mean yes probably ag and really

32:44

have any other plans for today. I

32:46

get completed blackout drunk and you know.

32:51

This this will be a financial fully I'm

32:53

in. This black Jack is really managed to

32:56

do that about this blackout as I'm to

32:58

detect. Okay let's say that in fact the

33:00

blackout remains because when you when you acquiesce

33:02

to the to their requests to me. Kelly

33:06

each one you by the hand and

33:08

they just walk you through this kind

33:10

of pitch dark blue Barnaby. You've been

33:12

in this social house long enough to

33:15

recognize the kind of being led to

33:17

the door and you feel least like

33:19

that you're going down steps will you

33:21

can't see them on You are basically

33:24

guided blindly out of the building. And

33:27

then walks along gently, occasionally amusing

33:29

navigating this place while not being

33:31

able to see anything exactly as.

33:35

For. Quite a long time. Been to be you

33:37

do? You do kind of know roughly where in

33:39

foliage pull you are Occasionally feel a kind of

33:42

like. Bump. In your shoulder

33:44

and you imagine you're probably bumping into people

33:46

on the street eventually that you start to

33:48

lose your way and over. About the let's

33:50

say a half an hour I you are

33:53

events in a guided through. This is kind

33:55

of pitch darkness and eventually you you come

33:57

to us. And.

34:00

The. Gloom. Disburses

34:02

and you find that you are inside

34:04

a building. A.

34:07

Moldering. Olds house For a grim

34:09

it's not the dimension you would know

34:12

that if he saw it as both

34:14

a fat really I saw it did

34:16

destroyed it. basically that the way won't

34:18

look at night isn't Haven't had a

34:20

word to John Kerry idea that the

34:22

a bit of their own kind of

34:24

caved in and you know that was

34:26

a lot of especially else is that

34:29

as my mother in I'm to skyn

34:31

36:11

I know all about. Oh really?

36:13

Oh yes, I do talk a

36:15

lot about myself. As

36:18

they've been tracking you for some time,

36:20

have they been reading the Society paces?

36:24

And what any have a Shetland pony

36:26

up I know a separate want us

36:28

to just not like it or he

36:30

36:32

get enough of this is donkey he

36:34

specifically com bust enough every summer speech

36:36

synthesis. Of.

36:42

It's the brightness decision for now that

36:44

the most discreet course of action is

36:46

simply to observe you, and that's what

36:48

they have been doing. But be under

36:50

no illusion, they will not hesitate to

36:52

strike and strike hard if they deem

36:55

you real threat. And

36:57

that time could come sooner than you think. I

37:00

have no more information to offer because

37:02

he see I am myself no longer.

37:05

In communication with group. What

37:08

Happened? Y. And

z you ask an us new?

37:15

Well I say they're a bunch

37:17

of cowards. Insisting I say they're

37:19

a bunch of cowards. We've been

37:21

at Loggerheads sometime over some keep.

37:24

Philosophical disagreements, I

37:27

want to keep pushing risk ghost

37:29

research. The pace is the veil

37:31

between realities. ah, at sacrificing sanity

37:33

for madness in search of deeper

37:35

truth. And they just want to

37:37

maintain the status quo. Want Em

37:39

seems to keep spinning? Gosh, I

37:44

lost my temper. Things were said.

37:46

I stormed out. Anyway,

37:50

Being be enormously wealthy. The

37:52

status quo does have some appeal. Butts

37:56

and bread to listen to your. Your.

37:58

Side of the argument is what is the. The

38:01

great wealth and the advanced in the

38:03

power if we're not using it to

38:05

push forward into bold new realms of

38:08

discovery like even in this room. I.

38:10

Believe. We could only

38:13

place to fail if we could

38:15

see what it the cost have

38:17

a sense of thousands of truth.

38:19

Some horrifying yes but some beautiful

38:21

potentially would come screaming out physicists

38:23

at the wouldn't you like that

38:25

you should come screaming out how

38:27

willing out there all around town

38:29

Yeah wailing, you might suck us

38:31

moon How close ally. I.

38:34

Don't really senate and fifty plus from them.

38:38

And way to see she babbel

38:40

zone in this some alarming way

38:43

of for some for some time

38:45

before eventually. Coming. Back to

38:47

her point Regardless, I

38:52

stormed out. One. Day later, two

38:54

of my favorite acolytes seized by. Spirits

38:59

was. Sentenced on the

39:01

Church of Ecstasy to be. Earned

39:05

at the state in public. onto

39:07

a punishment that has not been

39:10

used in boneless pork for. Now.

39:12

On one hundred and fifty Years and why do

39:15

you think coincidence that the day after I stopped

39:17

know that trying to send a message they would

39:19

be to come crawling back? Well I don't cruel.

39:21

39:38

deal he asked. Said fine.

39:40

Get that mirror entirely Next

39:42

fusion. Not a problem. Yeah, through

39:44

the defences creep me out by the one than light.

39:47

Bulbs. And lie as information We

39:49

need. The information. Yes quite aside

39:52

from that be to people are going

39:54

to be unfairly trend of the state

39:56

but well as have been unfairly. Somewhat

40:00

unfairly as that the judges or trumped

40:02

up I didn't say they wouldn't do

40:04

entertainment as. As

40:06

is fine world. sure they moved

40:09

if you spirits. The physicists who

40:11

hasn't say didn't inhale twist of

40:13

like. Twist. Of lemon

40:16

offensive didn't pass ssssss with fertile

40:18

as I'm fine, I'm rice. Ah

40:20

find any information we should know

40:23

about this public execution? Anything useful?

40:25

What you want to know: Location,

40:28

infrastructure were they being held at

40:30

the moment? The when he drinks

40:32

in the drinks cabinet because I'm

Looking substance, And. I

40:47

thought that the phone be I'm not

40:49

sure whether or not is and me

40:51

that I'm not sure whether that as

40:53

a sensible thing right and. Some

40:56

reason I consider. My

40:59

drawn in the not know the to

41:01

save myself. I'm gonna put this don't.

41:06

Tell it's time to sit it back

41:08

and will take to take them into

41:10

purple. Kind. Of. Bluffing.

41:12

Kind of creeps into the causes of our ice

41:15

so. Fast.

41:17

I think hangover, right? Yes, I'm so. where

41:19

the hell were you act like being held?

41:21

That's probably the most. Potent. That

41:23

immigration at the moment? they're being held in.

41:26

I. And hook Prison rice I

41:28

don't Prison is the it's the

41:30

prison voters put it is a

41:33

huge ah and never allen's that

41:35

all the criminals from Ssssss or

41:37

is it a towering metal fortress

41:40

on the on the outskirts the

41:42

southern outskirts of of Bonus Pool

41:44

where the worst almost unlucky criminals.

41:47

Ah are incarcerated.

41:50

That being held. There. For

41:53

now though, be moved

41:55

by carriage convoy along

41:57

with. I assume

41:59

seven. The prisoners to

42:01

the execution yard which

42:03

is to place in.

42:06

Bright. Stone I believe this. Setting.

42:08

They're probably setting it up now and that's where

42:11

the execution will happen. So m as I see

42:13

it, you have. Ample. Opportunities

42:15

to intercept. I would do

42:17

it myself. They would see

42:19

beginning and well. I

42:22

imagine Strangford His. Brief

42:24

them to be on the lookout for my strength to.

42:27

Strength. Lord strength. It. Oh

42:29

Lord. strength that sorry I thought you meant some

42:32

sort of. In a brick I

42:34

peeled sauna be you know that

42:36

lot. Strangford on operates one of

42:38

the largest leviathan hunter fleets. That's

42:40

how. His family made

42:42

his fortune. He serves on the city council.

42:44

He's a high ranking judge within the Church

42:46

of Ecstasy. I will once if sentence nice

42:48

to desist as to death he the brightness

42:50

to as well as Kelly know his name

42:53

is on the list you cured. He's.

42:55

The one who am. I.

42:58

May have called him some names. He. Hates

43:00

me. That's

43:02

fine as up he's a bit of an

43:04

idiot. White Will

43:07

he be overseeing the entire process? I

43:09

mean will he be accompanying the the

43:11

the to acolytes from I'm Hooked to

43:13

Bright Certain. No, I don't know. He

43:17

is it. Secretive. Fellow

43:19

and. He I imagine

43:21

he would. My. Know

43:23

into a real bowl. As I say the have

43:25

not a public learning and hundred and fifty years

43:28

it's very cruel and I coming from me. What

43:31

I mean the the risks as of

43:33

killing people. In. A public place

43:36

should? you must be one of the

43:38

that sort of how they mitigating that.

43:41

I assume they have spirit wardens

43:43

on hand. Backers will probably be

43:46

somewhere in the mix with his

43:48

goons. Lilith you remember who lacquer

43:50

off as the leader of the

43:53

their the eccentric leader of the

43:55

spirit wardens, the masked individuals who

43:57

are in charge. Oh duh. Moving

44:00

bodies. Yesterday. In

44:02

Ghosts yes on their convey

44:04

about I imagine under controlled

44:06

conditions. yes those a something.

44:10

As anything else, if you get pregnant for us

44:13

to know, I think we should probably get cracking.

44:15

You want to know their names? Sure

44:17

one have. Been.

44:21

To be I think you know them. Quite. Well already.

44:25

Go on. The. To Rosie

44:27

in Jersey. All

44:29

around the ones who went inside

44:31

my head, ah yes, we can

44:33

we not just sort of let

44:36

them. Maybe. Be a

44:38

bit spent at the steak. Of course you

44:40

can. If I want that

44:42

information us as okay fine find it

44:44

go along with it. Not.

44:47

Terribly happy. Oh.

44:54

Okay, well we've been given

44:56

some information by Kelly I

44:58

know, I guess. sorry by

45:00

Kelly and or not a

45:02

huge amount I suppose this

45:04

overseas. Some on the outside of the in

45:06

a circle. As things stand. So just

45:08

ah yes you have your task is

45:11

the answer Planning phase. Right now it

45:13

looks like a intercepting them in transit

45:15

is from of the ad carries. It's

45:18

for me the weakest point at the

45:20

years Have much luck break into prison.

45:23

Say yes. Think it's just finding out

45:25

when they'll be transported and finding a

45:27

way to stop that and get them

45:29

out. Sounds

45:31

good. On. If

45:33

we can get a look at the the

45:35

transport ahead of time perhaps maybe rate get.

45:38

Me: Every name is the on how. Good.

45:41

They sound like the sound like

45:43

cool maneuvers. let's start rolling for

45:45

them. So we show spawned be

45:47

what do we start with you

45:49

you He was going to find

45:51

out a the yeah one little

45:53

it's a I'm sure it's a

45:55

private contractor he's providing security this

45:57

operation so ah probably acne some

46:00

my contacts amongst the wealthy to.

46:02

I'm find out a little more

46:04

about. Which.

46:06

Which services being tasked with moving the

46:08

prisoners and what sort of equipment they

46:11

going to be using. Yeah.

46:13

Gonna. Make. Me

46:15

a role for that Now would that be. Consort.

46:18

Do you think will sway? consult

46:21

feals? close to me But V

46:23

and the case as way you

46:25

know Now I think as fine

46:27

is it is. Yeah, consulting sounds

46:30

about right the solitude ice but

46:32

let's go to go. Oh wow

46:34

T Sixes wow. okay lowering costs

46:37

and ah up quick return. Other

46:39

that square family accent he bought

46:41

a security company while he was

46:43

drunk. It

46:46

say that the. Let's

46:48

say you didn't You didn't buy it,

46:50

but you'd have invested quite heavily. I

46:52

do remember Darnell I and hookers. The

46:54

try pot wailing from and with I

46:56

support his bugs me. When I'm adding

46:58

he tried to hit me in the

47:00

habit. The paddles ah well. maybe I

47:02

tried to hit him in the head.

47:05

And. Fuzzy on the details as

47:07

you yeah a look. What?

47:09

Happens, it's a dunno haven't Same as

47:12

it more often that see. His

47:15

soul food badly and see refer if if

47:17

you know he noted it's asked for us.

47:19

we're on the wolf's you are on the

47:21

you arrive via your over That I was

47:24

a and yet you I eat you you

47:26

put a little money into into that he

47:28

actually came to to to you Barnaby He

47:30

was very persuasive is very persuasive or use

47:32

is looking to expand in numbers. Words on

47:34

earth my say you know I know good

47:37

investment when I see one that the try

47:39

put wailing. Famous been doing so well, he

47:41

was looking to expand into private security. And

47:44

so yeah it is Tripod Security

47:46

Nice I is is the is

47:48

the private firm who are with

47:51

the blue coats organizing the at

47:53

the. Prison. Transport

47:55

obviously. This. Is

47:58

a slightly special case. Because

48:01

haven't been a public execution like this.

48:03

He numbered and fifty eight. So logistically

48:05

it is a little. they're a little

48:07

unusual an end up a little a

48:10

little niece or you know is. That

48:13

the carriages that the Tripod

48:15

security firm. Provide. A

48:18

are. Real secure. They

48:20

are kind of reinforced inside and

48:22

out. It is extremely hard to

48:25

get in or out. the discourages

48:27

there are no windows or that

48:30

that completely sealed and I'm kind

48:32

of reinforced I and all around

48:34

and you know if the of

48:37

the highest grade manufacturing each each

48:39

requires. Two keys

48:42

I used symbol tiny Sli

48:44

to open. And

48:46

yeah, that's also say

48:48

that. Because it has got

48:51

that logistically. Tricky thing

48:53

to have organized earn

48:55

these. Carriages. They

48:57

are moving. Not just the prisoners

48:59

are, they are also moving. Quite

49:02

a few other prisoners because yeah, I'd hooks

49:04

overflowing that moving into kind of halfway. Halfway

49:07

Houses is that the right legacy of of

49:09

as the moving them to a yes other

49:11

other smaller prisons other lock up some of

49:14

them are on their way to the parole

49:16

board or to the to the courts as.sights

49:18

Quite a few prisoners are being moved in

49:20

the same convoy. It's

49:23

you know there's a logistical benefit

49:25

and the security benefit to because

49:27

it's not clear. Who will

49:29

be in which carriage the plan

49:32

A soup You been given so

49:34

much information you've been given a

49:36

I like the routes from I

49:38

Unhook I. It's a kind of

49:40

winding roots that take some unpredictable

49:42

turns. It's it's not kind of

49:44

direct path to the square where

49:46

the execution is that to happen

49:48

and then the other characters are

49:50

gonna go on woods to go

49:53

out of that. but characters like

49:55

ice spikes on both sides by

49:57

blue coats on horses and carriages.

49:59

Will be driven. by employees of

50:01

the security firm. Mm-hmm. Tripod

50:04

security. Heavies, if you like.

50:07

And then... Is it all of the

50:09

carriages that the... Goat drawn. Is

50:11

it goat drawn? Yeah. Is it all of

50:13

the carriages that the company owns

50:15

that are being put in service? Are

50:18

there any spares at all? Good

50:21

question. Is it our

50:23

whole fleet? I'll

50:25

tell you what. Every carriage

50:27

that is currently functional. Carriages

50:31

that are broken or in need of

50:33

repair. They are obviously

50:35

not being used. Every active

50:38

servicing carriage is

50:41

going to be passed this convoy. It's a

50:43

big operation. Do we know which

50:45

carriage our two pals

50:47

are going to be in? Our two ghosty

50:50

pals? No. Okay.

50:52

We'll probably find out,

50:54

but why does he care? Mm-hmm. He's

50:57

probably not even going to be there. Do

51:00

we know which one will be at the front? Which

51:02

carriage will be at the front of... Will

51:05

it be just one carriage or like... Oh, no.

51:08

This will be about... Yeah, a proper convoy about

51:10

how many...? Ten. Ten

51:12

carriages. Ten. Okay.

51:15

So I'd like to try and find out which one will be

51:17

at the front of the

51:19

route. Which particular carriage? Which particular

51:21

carriage will be at the front of the convoy.

51:24

Okay. Cool. Okay.

51:27

So I'm going to have a little roll. A

51:30

studie, I suppose, for that. Ooh,

51:33

I've got a two and a four. I've got a four.

51:36

A four? Okay. What

51:38

you did was basically stake out. Einhoek prison.

51:40

Mm-hmm. You

51:43

set up a position in an

51:46

empty building, kind of across the road. Property

51:48

prices round there pretty low. Looking out onto Einhoek,

51:51

it's quite a grim view. It's a big room,

51:53

yeah. This huge metal fortress.

51:56

And you basically just watched things

51:58

happening, the gates opening. things coming

52:00

in and out. You did see

52:02

like carriages, like

52:05

tripod security carriages going in.

52:08

Yeah. You could make a reasonable guess

52:10

that the last one, the last carriage

52:12

you saw going in, is probably

52:14

going to be the first one out. Because

52:18

otherwise logistically it's gonna, you know, inside they would

52:20

have to kind of reorder. Yeah. They're probably gonna

52:22

spin these things on the spot. Was

52:25

there, I suppose, what'd you get? You got a four,

52:27

right? Yeah. Yeah, you noticed

52:29

a distinguishing feature of that

52:31

final carriage to go in.

52:33

It's subtle, it's a

52:35

little bit of chipped paint on the rear bumper,

52:38

if you like.

52:41

But in

52:43

the process of doing this you were spotted.

52:47

You leaned a little too far out the window and

52:49

someone on a watchtower shone a

52:51

bright light at you and went, hey you, you

52:54

with the hood. Yeah? What

52:56

do you want? Oh, I just think carriages

52:59

are really cool. Name please.

53:02

Oh, it's

53:05

a... it's

53:08

a... it's a what? It's

53:12

a lovely night, isn't it? And I run.

53:14

Cool. All right. Yeah, fair

53:16

enough. They didn't get your

53:18

name. This one

53:20

guard got a look at you.

53:24

So it's not gonna be easy to sneak in.

53:26

Probably, probably at least

53:29

the prison, maybe the convoy, are gonna have been

53:31

briefed to be on the lookout of, you know,

53:33

they'll be given a list of like, if someone's

53:36

gonna try something it'll be this, you know, you

53:38

suspects, kind of gang leaders,

53:40

known, you know, known wrongs

53:42

who they believe will be interfering and you

53:44

are on that list. Well, your description is

53:47

on that list. Okay. Riding

53:49

the momentum of my wonderful

53:51

crit, I'm sure I

53:54

could argue that this is a really

53:56

big deal for my security

53:58

company and it's a big investment. and

54:00

this is potentially very important

54:02

for the future of the company. So

54:04

I feel like I should be sort of able

54:08

to oversee most,

54:10

if not all of the stages of this

54:12

operation. I

54:14

feel like my presence should be not

54:17

at all suspicious. Yeah,

54:19

just wants to make sure it goes

54:21

smoothly. It appears the company, it

54:23

can't go wrong. Let's say... Now...

54:28

CEO, co-founder, come on. Yeah,

54:31

let's... you are a big investor

54:33

in the company. Let's say... Darnell

54:36

ultimately gets final say. It is his co...

54:38

you're an investor, but it's his company. However,

54:41

as a significant investor, you

54:43

do hold some sway. Hmm.

54:46

He agrees that yes, this

54:48

can happen, but... he'll

54:50

have to be with you every step of the

54:52

way. That's fine. Flashback. I

54:55

get drunk with him. Okay. In

54:58

one of his preferred rowdy, you know,

55:00

hard side pubs. Yeah, cool. And

55:02

we have a wonderful time. We get on

55:04

swimmingly, obviously. Sure. Because I'm... Because you end

55:06

up in the harbour. I'm like... Alright,

55:11

fine. Yes, that also happened. Cool.

55:14

Yeah. Take me one stress for

55:16

the flashback. Yeah, so you just want to be basically on

55:18

good terms with... Hmm. Yeah.

55:20

With the Iron Hook. It's been a while?

55:23

Yeah. Get on like House on

55:25

Fire. He hadn't even planned to

55:27

like oversee this whole situation, but

55:29

you know... I tell him it'd

55:31

be fun. Yeah, yeah. For

55:34

a key investor, he's willing to do

55:36

a... It's basically a kind

55:38

of very cushy ride-along, is what you're...

55:40

Hmm. Cool. Okay, is there

55:42

any other planning you want to do? Yes.

55:46

In order to engineer

55:49

a situation... Where

55:53

we have access to one of the carriages...

55:57

Here's my thinking. little

56:00

elaborate but I have been drinking. What

56:03

if we take one of the less shoddy

56:05

carriages that needs some repairs, might fall

56:07

apart at any moment, blah blah blah,

56:10

switch the serial numbers so that

56:12

in the convoy there's a broken

56:14

carriage, and then I'm

56:17

thinking take the working carriage as

56:19

a replacement, last

56:21

minute replacement, with, here's the fun

56:23

thing, saw a magic show recently,

56:25

trick floor, and then all

56:27

we need to do is work out a way for Rosie and

56:30

Josie to hide in the trick floor and

56:32

then it'll look like they've vanished. Probably

56:34

won't even investigate that much because they'll just put it

56:37

down to weird, you know,

56:39

magical nonsense. I

56:42

love it. Okay, let me try and

56:45

recap, paraphrase what

56:48

you just said. Your plan is, take one of

56:50

the kind of shoddy carriages, yes, but

56:52

basically functional, but likely to fall

56:54

apart during the journey. That could be made

56:56

functional perhaps. Install in

56:58

that carriage a trick

57:00

floor and have it swapped out

57:03

with, you know, with an existing,

57:05

yeah, basically get it into the convoy. Yeah,

57:07

I want the carriage with the trick floor

57:09

into the convoy, I don't mind if we

57:12

swap them early and then install the trick

57:14

floor into the functioning carriage or vice versa,

57:16

but either way I want there

57:18

to be a carriage with a

57:21

trick floor. Okay. My only problem is

57:23

I don't know which carriage Rosie

57:26

and Josie like to be in. I don't

57:28

think there's enough time to fit trick floors in all of

57:30

them, so we are going to

57:32

have to work it out a little bit

57:34

on the flight, but that's my plan. Okay.

57:38

It's sounding like maybe this plan

57:41

is going to start not with

57:43

the convoy in process, but like

57:46

at the prison, potentially.

57:48

You know, as the convoy kind of gets underway.

57:51

Yeah. Okay. Uh, all

57:53

right. I love it. Well, I mean, we can switch the serial

57:55

numbers. Uh, we can switch

57:57

the serial numbers initially. Yeah. We've

57:59

got a broken. carriage, come to the

58:01

prison, last minute, this

58:03

carriage is broken, it's non-functional, look, this

58:05

axle is damaged or whatever, and

58:08

then use that as the opportunity to switch in

58:11

a functioning carriage with a trick-floor.

58:13

Cool. Cool, cool, cool. I

58:15

think, yeah, the biggest obstacle still is that

58:17

you don't know where Rosie and Josie are

58:19

going to be in

58:21

the convoy, but, and I don't know how,

58:24

but maybe that's something that we figure out

58:27

on the fly in flashback, that feels

58:29

like the kind of thing where

58:31

if we start at the Trine Planet we

58:33

would basically be in the score already. Yeah,

58:35

also we've got to somehow communicate to Rosie

58:37

and Josie their

58:41

role in the plan, which probably is

58:43

going to do some weirdy spooky stuff to all

58:45

the prisoners that they're in with, and

58:47

then clamber into a hidden

58:50

trapdoor. Lillith, why don't you

58:52

tell me how you want to do that and

58:54

we will see how it goes as part of

58:57

the engagement role. Yeah, I would

58:59

like to hide

59:02

within the little trapdoor my

59:04

little ghostie pal Finn, so that when

59:07

everything is in transit she can pop

59:09

her head through the trapdoor and be

59:11

like, hello, you can get in here,

59:13

Lillith says get in here, we'll get you

59:15

out, well they know ghosts, so you know,

59:17

they're fine. So if you want to live

59:20

hiding in the trapdoor, and

59:23

she likes me, so she'll do some things,

59:26

and I promised her another fun day doing

59:28

ghost things. Cool, that sounds great, because then

59:31

you don't need to communicate with Rosie and

59:33

Josie in the prison. Okay,

59:35

so we'll see how well

59:38

your instructions to Finn get understood as

59:40

part of the engagement role. We

59:43

do that though, this trap floor

59:45

you can't just, no

59:49

pun intended magic up a trap floor. What's

59:52

Edvard up to? He doesn't have much of a social life. Edvard

59:57

and the other two, whatever.

1:00:00

their names are. You

1:00:02

find that they are not there, which is weird, they

1:00:04

normally leave a note, but they are not around.

1:00:08

So it's up to you two to maybe

1:00:10

find someone in town capable of constructing

1:00:13

this sort of mechanism.

1:00:17

Do we know any Astor engineers? Those chaps seem

1:00:20

like they know what they're doing. I

1:00:24

could ask Flint, because he's making all

1:00:26

sorts of ghost traps and

1:00:28

stuff. He's at my Spirit

1:00:30

Tricker. So I

1:00:33

could go and ask him whether

1:00:35

he makes them or he gets someone else to

1:00:37

make them find out where he gets his ghost

1:00:40

traps from. And he didn't die, did he?

1:00:44

No, I saved him. I saved him

1:00:46

from a very horrible situation.

1:00:48

Yeah. Yeah, he's really big.

1:00:50

Flint doesn't know how

1:00:53

to build a trap fort. However, Flint

1:00:55

gives you the address of someone

1:00:58

who does. Why don't we kind of

1:01:00

flash you to outside of this kind

1:01:03

of like shabby looking sorts of building.

1:01:06

It's somewhere

1:01:08

else in Charhollow. Yeah, you're

1:01:11

stood in front of this door for the address you've been

1:01:13

given. Okay, I'd

1:01:15

like to knock. Yeah,

1:01:19

the door has kind of opened a

1:01:21

crack. And you see a bright gleaming

1:01:24

eye out of Elo.

1:01:28

Who is it? Hello,

1:01:31

my name's Lele. I heard

1:01:34

that you're quite good at making

1:01:37

things. A

1:01:40

potential clown? We. You

1:01:43

have money? You

1:01:46

can tell. He

1:01:50

does. He

1:01:52

looks like he has money. Yeah, he does.

1:01:55

Then come in, Maslow. Hello. The

1:01:58

door is pulled to the ground. wide

1:02:00

revealing, you know

1:02:02

what, revealing a Tabaxi,

1:02:06

a tall cat

1:02:09

person. Now

1:02:11

Lilith, you've travelled around a lot. You

1:02:14

have seen... Are you seeing this? Yeah.

1:02:17

So it's not just the

1:02:19

absinthe then? No, no,

1:02:21

no. I

1:02:25

would say that in the old days it

1:02:27

was much more common to encounter Tabaxi and

1:02:29

all sorts of

1:02:32

other peoples of the world, but since

1:02:34

the ghost calamity with travelling around so

1:02:37

perilous and only the cities being safe

1:02:39

for habitation, it

1:02:41

is very, very rare to see a

1:02:44

Tabaxi in this part of the world.

1:02:46

But here is one. Come

1:02:49

in, come in, have a sit down. Hello.

1:02:53

Welcome. Yeah, we need

1:02:56

a trapdoor installed

1:02:58

into a carriage. Ah. Interesting.

1:03:04

It can be done? Yeah, with

1:03:06

a compartment underneath that's big

1:03:09

enough to hide two people but

1:03:11

can be concealed anyway. Two quite small

1:03:13

people. They're not massive. Two small. Yeah, they're not.

1:03:16

What kind of carriage are we talking about? An

1:03:19

extremely secure prison carriage.

1:03:22

Oh, the price just went up.

1:03:28

I also feel it

1:03:30

might help our

1:03:33

case a little bit if

1:03:36

we ostensibly

1:03:39

have added some additional security,

1:03:42

perhaps security against magic,

1:03:46

for this particular carriage. Because

1:03:49

then we can make our case when we switch the

1:03:51

carriages that actually are two most

1:03:54

high profile, most dangerous

1:03:56

passengers, let's say, euphemistically

1:03:58

prisoners, should housed in

1:04:00

the most secure of the characters. Nice.

1:04:04

Very nice. Okay. So

1:04:07

perhaps some ghost feel stuff, you

1:04:10

know, sort of like what

1:04:12

Edvard was cooking up for the

1:04:14

train carriage, you know, maybe just those additional, they

1:04:16

don't have to be functional but they just have

1:04:18

to look the part. It is

1:04:20

no problem. I can cook up something

1:04:22

like this. Let

1:04:25

me show you my la beretra. Yeah,

1:04:27

you are... You want to

1:04:29

put on sorry? La beretra.

1:04:32

The lavatory. Sorry, I'm not... my

1:04:34

French is terrible. What?

1:04:41

Just say it slowly. He

1:04:43

speaks nonsense, Nippon. Sweet.

1:04:46

Yeah, you are shown to the laboratory

1:04:49

of this tabaxi. Who introduces themselves, by

1:04:51

the way? My name is

1:04:55

Carthon de Rode. Carthon

1:04:57

de Rode. So

1:05:01

called the code. Carthon de Rode.

1:05:04

Carthon de Rode. Like a road

1:05:06

bike. Like

1:05:08

a goat wood pole. Carthon

1:05:12

de Rode. Right. Oh, well, how

1:05:14

very fitting. Yeah.

1:05:17

Perfect. I was named for

1:05:19

my... because I love to wander. I

1:05:24

was considered something of a charlatan

1:05:27

in my homeland.

1:05:31

I pretended I could speak

1:05:33

to the... I'm getting really into this. Yeah?

1:05:37

New favorite. I

1:05:39

may have pretended that I could talk to

1:05:41

ghosts. This is how I made the acquaintance

1:05:43

of your friend. Oh, you love... you love

1:05:45

Lilith. Yes, I was

1:05:48

a trickster, a magician, using false

1:05:50

flaws and ghost fields. Perfect. Mostly

1:05:52

I... What a stroke of luck.

1:05:57

Yes. There is only one thing I...

1:06:00

I ask of you, apart from a great

1:06:02

deal of money for service I am about

1:06:04

to provide. I

1:06:06

have been living in this school area. It

1:06:09

is despicable for a

1:06:13

cat of my talent. I

1:06:18

want you to make sure when this goes

1:06:20

down that everybody

1:06:23

knows the... It

1:06:26

was thanks to the brilliant

1:06:28

engineering of Carton de Rode,

1:06:30

the famed Tabaxi illusionist. I

1:06:34

mean, that's fine. It might

1:06:36

get you into a little bit of legal trouble, but

1:06:38

otherwise... They would have to catch

1:06:40

me first. I would be reclining to the trapdoor.

1:06:45

You make a good point. Carton

1:06:47

de Rode seems a reckless thought. No

1:06:51

need to roll for this because I love Carton

1:06:53

de Rode. I can't even imagine a world

1:06:55

where they fail to do a brilliant job. So

1:06:59

the plan is, are

1:07:01

you going to bring the carriage to Carton de

1:07:03

Rode? Well,

1:07:08

we presumably own the warehouse where they are

1:07:10

stored, right? You have

1:07:12

a controlling interest in the warehouse where they

1:07:14

are stored. You

1:07:16

can go there. And

1:07:19

actually, you know, this

1:07:22

is long before the actual supervised portion

1:07:24

of the thing. Yeah,

1:07:27

let's take him there overnight. I

1:07:31

think at this point we have to start covering stuff

1:07:33

off with the engagement role. Let's hope it all goes

1:07:35

well. Okay, but

1:07:38

to recap, the plan is get

1:07:41

Carton de Rode discreetly to

1:07:44

the warehouse where all of the

1:07:46

carriages are being kept. I

1:07:49

think I already said that they've been moving

1:07:51

in and out of Einhoek, but let's say

1:07:53

that they are taken in and out. There's

1:07:55

prison transports daily, so that's, you know, they're

1:07:57

currently overnight before the execution. Being

1:08:00

stored in a try Hot

1:08:03

warehouse get cards on the road there Make

1:08:06

modifications to yeah, I said

1:08:08

carriage switch serial numbers get

1:08:10

busted carriage with modifications

1:08:14

into convoy Tell everyone

1:08:16

Rosie and Josie the most

1:08:19

dangerous prisoners should be stored in the

1:08:21

motor your carriage Yeah, and

1:08:23

then but break them out using

1:08:26

a ghost on route or not break

1:08:28

them out Okay,

1:08:31

let's roll the

1:08:34

engagement roll Okay

1:08:40

Pup D for sheer luck. Mm-hmm.

1:08:42

Excellent. Is it particularly bold or daring? Yes,

1:08:45

you know it It's

1:08:47

a Barnaby score Now

1:08:50

overly complex or contingent on many factors.

1:08:53

I'm going to say Yes,

1:08:55

mmm. It feels not not not

1:08:57

too complex But it is complex

1:09:00

there are like a

1:09:02

lot of moving parts here So

1:09:04

we're going to take away those left Hi

1:09:06

1:10:14

thanks for listening. Right, back to the podcast. But

1:10:30

excuse me if I don't think a bunch of ragtag journalists from

1:10:32

a pulled up town are actually going to be a venue. But

1:10:45

technically I don't come from here. When the

1:10:47

mysterious arrival of a celebrity from the Heroes

1:10:49

in Adventurer's Guild sets off a strange conspiracy, the

1:10:51

group will have to leave what they think they

1:10:53

know about the world at the door, if they're

1:10:55

ever to unravel the truth at the heart of

1:10:58

the seemingly nondescript town. It's not

1:11:00

front page of the Sarsai style. I

1:11:02

pulled up the today's installment of the

1:11:04

news to see what the front page

1:11:07

actually is. There's a big picture of

1:11:09

a pumpkin that's been stepped on, and

1:11:11

it says outrage as pumpkin stepped on.

1:11:19

you get your podcasts. With season two

1:11:21

on the way, find out more at

1:11:23

dicebreaker.com. Does the

1:11:25

detail expose the vulnerability of the targets or hit them

1:11:27

with their weakest? I'm going to say yes because... We

1:11:30

literally own the company. You

1:11:33

also had the option to break them out of prison

1:11:35

or try and free them from the

1:11:37

pyre, the executioner's pyre, but you have sort

1:11:39

of... Come

1:11:41

to the conclusion that the... Oh, the three, this

1:11:44

is the one straight and one off. Yeah, the safest, yeah. Is

1:11:47

the target strongest against his broken... No,

1:11:49

particular defences or special preparations, no. Friends

1:11:52

or contacts provide aid, hell yes. Yeah. The

1:11:54

new best friend cast on the road. Are

1:11:56

there any enemies or rivals interfering in the

1:11:58

operation? Not that we know

1:12:01

of but you know we're always

1:12:03

being overlooked The

1:12:05

brightness are always apparently not that you

1:12:07

know of although you have heard that

1:12:09

there is a group with whom you

1:12:11

have had prior war

1:12:13

apparently Not

1:12:18

even just the brightness I think baccaros

1:12:20

is the spirit we know the spirit wardens

1:12:22

are involved in Probably

1:12:24

the rail there. He still doesn't know he

1:12:27

just knows me as the intern who flunked

1:12:29

off That's

1:12:31

true, but he's a brightener Yeah,

1:12:33

he's on the hill he'll certainly know Are

1:12:38

there any other element any other elements you want

1:12:40

to consider you've currently got two dice so if

1:12:42

you want to Make

1:12:44

a case Let's

1:12:49

just do and be legends. Hell yeah, here we go

1:12:54

Two fours, hey not bad,

1:12:56

okay That

1:12:59

is success Conflict

1:13:03

okay Let's

1:13:06

say the part of the

1:13:08

plan involves cuts on the road obviously go smoothly Literally

1:13:12

this dude cannot put a poor wrong Yeah,

1:13:16

you get what's the kind of

1:13:18

guys under which you're getting cuts on the

1:13:20

road into the Into

1:13:22

the warehouse where the the carriages were all being stored

1:13:24

on it um, I I'm gonna

1:13:26

be actually quite upfront about it and

1:13:28

say look I only recently

1:13:30

heard that these These

1:13:33

two this roast in Josie I've had they've

1:13:36

had dealings with me in the past they assaulted me

1:13:38

So I Lord I'm so sorry. Yeah. Well, I

1:13:41

know can I get you a nice pack? Well,

1:13:43

I mean was a little while ago Now I have recovered Yeah,

1:13:48

I'll take the eyes back because my eyes are completely shocked But

1:13:52

uh, yeah, I I think we need to

1:13:54

step up security, you know, this is an

1:13:56

extremely important. Um, yes contract

1:13:58

for our company the Future

1:14:00

of the company really rides on it, so

1:14:02

your job included. We have to burn those

1:14:04

horrible witches. We have to burn those horrible

1:14:06

witches. This is what I was saying not,

1:14:08

you know, 24 hours ago to my companion

1:14:10

here, Lilith, and spiritual advisor.

1:14:14

And a yoga teacher, and also

1:14:16

a nutritionist. And

1:14:19

yes, the point is that we

1:14:22

need to get these two witches,

1:14:25

let's just say, to the funeral par. So

1:14:27

we need extra security. We're going to add

1:14:29

stuff. We have this expert in

1:14:31

the dark arts

1:14:33

here to create some security, just to ensure

1:14:35

that they don't try any magic funny business.

1:14:38

Carthon the Road says nothing but raises his

1:14:40

eyebrows and flicks away his cigarette lo. I

1:14:44

reach for a green smoothie from

1:14:47

Lilith. Yep. Green smoothie please.

1:14:50

I'm just loving because

1:14:52

Lilith is the whole time. Well,

1:14:55

I just remembered Lilith is watching the

1:14:57

whole time, and Barnaby's eyes are really

1:14:59

pretty. Yeah, pretty much. These

1:15:01

tiny spectacles, and there's like huge, huge

1:15:04

balls. Yeah,

1:15:07

I need a green smoothie to keep my

1:15:10

eyeballs hydrated. I

1:15:12

give him a green substance.

1:15:15

Thank you. Down

1:15:17

the hatch. Much better. You get cut

1:15:20

on the road into this warehouse. You

1:15:23

are sort of walked over there by the bloke

1:15:26

who was on the door. Well,

1:15:30

it's not exactly what Mr.

1:15:32

Einhoek specified, but

1:15:35

if you would like, we could... I'm sure we can speak. I'll

1:15:38

be with Mr. Einhoek tomorrow

1:15:40

throughout, so don't you worry about it.

1:15:42

We'll both be there. We'll both be

1:15:44

supervising. We both know how important this

1:15:46

is to the future of the company.

1:15:48

So I will fill him in later, but

1:15:51

for the moment we are running to time pressure

1:15:53

here, and we really... We've got to get these

1:15:55

out within the hour. Well,

1:15:57

I mean, this is our most secure...

1:16:00

carriage. The carriages are kind of arranged

1:16:02

in who rows of fives. You

1:16:05

can't see any difference between them really, but

1:16:07

he points to one carriage amongst

1:16:10

all the others. I think

1:16:13

at this point we can sort of safely

1:16:15

discard the element. Swapping

1:16:17

in the broken carriage. If you

1:16:19

want, sir, we can make sure that Rosie and Josie are transported

1:16:31

in this carriage. That would be perfect. I mean,

1:16:33

we're going to add some specific anti-magic

1:16:36

measures to the side of this

1:16:38

carriage that will hopefully prevent them from trying

1:16:41

anything. I will let your mechanic

1:16:43

get on with it. Thank you. Tarts on the

1:16:45

road, flicks down a welding mask like

1:16:47

that, and brings out some tools, and basically just gets

1:16:49

to work on this carriage. And

1:16:51

kind of within an hour rolls

1:16:54

out from underneath it. The

1:16:58

carriage now... Sorry, I'm

1:17:00

bored about it. He's

1:17:03

fanned by me. Some

1:17:07

habits are to be encouraged, you know. Yeah,

1:17:14

he kind of gestures to the

1:17:16

cart, which now kind of glows

1:17:18

with a faint of

1:17:21

australtronic heave. It is

1:17:24

a ghost field active now on the

1:17:27

carriage, and the trapdoor

1:17:29

is installed. If

1:17:33

anyone, all

1:17:36

the passengers would need to do

1:17:38

is to stamp twice hard on

1:17:44

the central section of the floor. A door will pop

1:17:46

up, they can climb in, no one will

1:17:48

know it is here. Perfect. Thank you

1:17:50

so much for your work. It's completely hidden.

1:17:52

I will leave it now. Alright,

1:17:54

I would like to hide Finn

1:17:57

in there and give her the instructions.

1:18:00

Okay. Tell Finn what to do. Hello.

1:18:04

It's nice to see you again. Hello. I've missed

1:18:06

you. Oh, where are we? So, we're

1:18:08

in... Oh. Let's

1:18:11

see all these fabulous carriages. So

1:18:14

shiny. Yeah, well, I need you to

1:18:16

do a special job. I need you

1:18:18

to. Aww. Aww, that

1:18:20

looks lovely. You know what? We've

1:18:23

got it. I've got... I need

1:18:25

you to do this for me and then afterwards we're

1:18:27

going to do a whole day of work. A lot

1:18:30

of super fun stuff. Alright. Okay.

1:18:32

We're going to go exploring and

1:18:35

see some other ghosts and stuff.

1:18:37

Okay. Excited for that?

1:18:40

Cool. So, what I need you to do... Before

1:18:43

we do that, I need to help these two people.

1:18:46

And so, there are two... Two

1:18:49

Rosie and Josie are going to be in

1:18:51

this carriage later on. They're

1:18:53

nice. They're not friends as well.

1:18:56

They're very nice. They are nice. I

1:18:59

reach for a drink. From my

1:19:01

light flode. Your

1:19:04

kind of... To everyone else, by the

1:19:06

way, this looks like Lilith is just basically whispering

1:19:08

to a jar. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

1:19:10

yeah. It looks like she... You

1:19:12

loudly say something about your nutritionist

1:19:15

mixing up a tonic or something.

1:19:17

Yes. Yes. Yeah.

1:19:20

Just ignore her. Nutritionist. Who knows?

1:19:22

It seems to work though. Regular as

1:19:24

a grandfather clock. Um, so... Yeah. I'm

1:19:27

going to have a drink. Um,

1:19:31

yeah, so, but what I will say

1:19:33

is that they're the... They're a

1:19:35

pair of the dimmer sisters. So, if they try anything

1:19:37

with you, you're allowed to spare them a little bit,

1:19:39

okay? But only to keep them in

1:19:41

line and make sure they don't hurt you, all right?

1:19:45

So, what you need to do is a little

1:19:47

way along is you need to pop your head

1:19:49

out and you need to

1:19:52

tell them to stamp on this bit of the floor twice,

1:19:54

okay? I can't

1:19:56

stamp on the ghost. No, but

1:19:58

they... you need to tell them. to

1:20:00

do it okay they

1:20:03

stamp on this little bit

1:20:05

of the floor okay and

1:20:08

then the door will open and then they

1:20:10

can come hang out with you in the

1:20:12

little gap in the carriage and

1:20:14

then you have to be as quiet as

1:20:17

you can like playing sardines and you have

1:20:19

to be quiet all right okay I'll be

1:20:21

quiet and then

1:20:23

afterwards when it's all done we can

1:20:25

go do something funny you can be as loud as you want

1:20:28

and we can have a lot of fun all right okay

1:20:31

okay okay do

1:20:33

our special handshake yep you

1:20:36

still sit there. I continue drinking.

1:20:39

Now you rolled

1:20:42

a four which means that let's

1:20:50

see according to the according to the book you're

1:20:53

in a risky position where the action starts the

1:20:55

risky position I'm gonna say comes from the fact

1:20:57

that you a large part

1:20:59

of this plan hinges on a ghost

1:21:04

telling the dimmer sisters something

1:21:07

to do yeah famous ghost

1:21:10

manipulators and spirit

1:21:12

twisters but maybe

1:21:15

but you know that's not a problem

1:21:17

for right now is it do we want

1:21:19

to add any other? Please be okay

1:21:21

Finn. Don't hurt my little Finn. Okay

1:21:26

right. Don't eat ghosts

1:21:28

through there or something.

1:21:31

No but they twist

1:21:33

them around. Spirit twisting

1:21:35

right. You have placed

1:21:38

Finn's bottle I guess with the

1:21:40

lid slightly yeah yeah in

1:21:42

the hidden part of this compartment as you do this

1:21:44

you get the chance to examine the mechanism for yourself

1:21:46

and kind of like that softly

1:21:49

like a soft closed drawer just like kind

1:21:52

of opens it's a real slick piece

1:21:54

of anything right yeah

1:21:56

it's just a great action and yeah

1:21:58

you place the you place thing

1:22:00

in there no problem yeah

1:22:03

at this point you are both

1:22:06

of you stood in the warehouse

1:22:08

of carriages someone is starting

1:22:10

to you know kind of like whistle and stuff

1:22:12

that that goats are being kind

1:22:14

of like tied to the carriage come on

1:22:16

get these moments! all

1:22:20

right yeah the convoy is heading to

1:22:22

the prison what do you two want to do?

1:22:26

I would

1:22:29

like to flashback and

1:22:33

Edvard was telling me about this amazing contraption

1:22:35

that he'd made that was

1:22:37

basically like a clockwork clockwork spear

1:22:40

but like a clockwork kind of

1:22:42

also like bayonet almost type thing

1:22:44

where it's just like a piston

1:22:46

thing and you wind it

1:22:49

up and leave it and then eventually after

1:22:51

a while the spear just comes out the

1:22:53

end and goes dum! and

1:22:55

it's just like sort of like a

1:22:58

security he's looking at different security measures

1:23:00

I mean he impaled the marvelous mechanical

1:23:02

man with it so it's kind of

1:23:04

like one of his like back to

1:23:06

the drawing board ideas but I took

1:23:08

it and I

1:23:10

would like to install it on

1:23:12

the coach that I saw as probably

1:23:14

being the first one with the little

1:23:16

bit of paint missing I would like

1:23:18

to install it unlike by the wheel

1:23:20

so that time it

1:23:23

takes it like one of the problems is it

1:23:26

takes so long like the clockwork

1:23:28

he made was too long so it was a

1:23:30

few hours that it's it so

1:23:32

I'd like to kind of like wind it

1:23:34

fully up and then by the time it

1:23:36

actually goes off they'll be on the move

1:23:38

in the convoy and then

1:23:40

once it stops spoke will go out

1:23:43

it'll go like this spear will go

1:23:45

out and go in the spokes and hopefully stop the

1:23:47

convoy okay sure um roll

1:23:49

me for that okay so I'm gonna do

1:23:51

this as a oh

1:23:56

I got six okay cool

1:23:58

yeah So you find

1:24:02

the carriage with the chipped bit of paint. And

1:24:05

yeah, this thing, I guess it looks like a, well,

1:24:08

it looks a little bit like a telescope when

1:24:10

it's all folded up. It's got a metal cylinder

1:24:12

like that. And you just

1:24:14

basically discreetly just duck down,

1:24:16

pretend you've dropped something and just ram

1:24:19

it up into the, and

1:24:21

it kind of sticks between two bits of wood. Yeah,

1:24:25

and that's going to, hopefully,

1:24:28

well, you rolled a six, yeah. So you're

1:24:31

pretty confident that you aimed this right. And

1:24:33

it's going to go off and I guess,

1:24:35

yeah, the leading carriage, stop the convoy. Okay,

1:24:39

right. Yeah, the carriages

1:24:41

are all being taken away. Where do you two want

1:24:43

to be? What do you want to do? Where do

1:24:45

you- I want to go and meet with Darnell.

1:24:47

Yeah, okay. And

1:24:50

as casually as possible, drop into

1:24:52

conversation that, because

1:24:55

I've dealt with Rosie and Josie before, I've

1:24:58

added some extra security. Yeah, sure,

1:25:01

sure, that's fine. Won't

1:25:03

make you roll for that. Let's

1:25:05

say you're now with Darnell.

1:25:07

Let's say Darnell has just arrived as

1:25:10

the convoy is leaving the warehouse. He

1:25:12

himself walks in and

1:25:14

says, Barnaby, didn't this bit find

1:25:16

you here? Wow, big day for the company, isn't

1:25:19

it? Will you be accompanying the convoy

1:25:21

with me? Still want to do your little ride along?

1:25:23

Absolutely, yeah. Well, you know, it's important to keep an

1:25:25

eye on this. And as I may have explained to

1:25:27

you when we were drinking the other night, I've had

1:25:30

a run-in with this Rosie and Josie, and I want

1:25:32

to see them get to that stake and get burnt

1:25:34

as quickly as possible. Don't

1:25:36

do characters. You're right, weirdo, Barnaby,

1:25:39

but your money folds. Um...

1:25:41

Uh, silly. Well,

1:25:46

I'm about to saddle up. He explains

1:25:48

to you that as this convoy of carriages kind

1:25:50

of goes, single file, down the streets of Volusport,

1:25:52

he will be on a horse. Yes.

1:25:56

You know, walking to one side of it

1:25:58

the whole way, as will. many

1:26:00

blue coats and... Fine. I

1:26:04

shall also ride a horse. As

1:26:07

you know, I'm a rather accomplished polo player,

1:26:10

top scorer in my team last

1:26:12

year, they keep tapping it towards me just in front of

1:26:14

the goal and I tap it in. It's really quite a

1:26:16

straight forward game. So yes,

1:26:18

I'll be riding alongside. Lillis,

1:26:21

what's your plan during the tournament?

1:26:24

I would like to be along

1:26:28

one of the streets, the

1:26:30

quieter streets. Yep. There will

1:26:32

be a crowd of people probably who will

1:26:34

just be watching this happen. Yeah,

1:26:37

I'd like to just be walking behind the crowd, just

1:26:40

wandering along. They're not going to be

1:26:42

moving quickly, these characters, are they really? You

1:26:45

could probably track them on foot. Let's

1:26:48

jump to... I don't

1:26:50

think we need to see any business in

1:26:53

the prison, do we? We've

1:26:56

got no business there really. Lillis,

1:26:59

you kind of vanish off, melt off

1:27:01

into the crowd and

1:27:04

take your place along. It's like Disneyland, when

1:27:06

you know where the parade's going to be,

1:27:08

so you get a good spot on a

1:27:10

corner. Meanwhile, Barnaby,

1:27:12

you accompany Darnell on horseback, roll

1:27:15

me for how good you are

1:27:17

at riding horses, really. I'm

1:27:21

one, enjoying the Barnaby thing, and two,

1:27:23

liking how to explain to me parades,

1:27:25

you immediately went, like Disney. I

1:27:30

would say this is a finesse roll,

1:27:32

surely. That's four and a two. Okay.

1:27:37

You are... You

1:27:40

know in Labyrinth, where that little fox rides around on

1:27:43

the dog? That's me. Something's

1:27:48

wrong with this horse, I think. I

1:27:52

normally have mine sedated first. Would

1:27:56

you like me to sedate your horse? No, it's

1:27:58

fine. Yeah,

1:28:02

the carriages move into

1:28:05

the prison gates open, like

1:28:07

that, and you

1:28:09

are kind of filed into the

1:28:12

yard. You get a glimpse of

1:28:14

prisoners being escorted

1:28:16

out of the prison. They are all

1:28:19

tightly shackled and bound and

1:28:21

escorted by many, many blue coats. The

1:28:25

carriages kind of, they

1:28:27

don't really stop, it's kind of almost like

1:28:29

a conveyor belt system, like the carriages just

1:28:31

slowly move along. Like

1:28:33

a ski lift. Yeah, it's

1:28:35

like a ski lift of

1:28:37

terrible criminals. Like a Disney

1:28:40

ride, like the haunted mansion.

1:28:42

Put it in more relatable

1:28:44

terms, yeah. What you don't ski,

1:28:46

you must try it, it's wonderful. And

1:28:50

criminals are where I get most of my ghosts. Loaded

1:28:55

in. You notice, Barnaby,

1:28:59

that criminals are being loaded

1:29:01

in, as you would probably imagine, one

1:29:04

to a carriage. Interesting.

1:29:06

To cut down on, I guess,

1:29:09

planning, scheming, and

1:29:11

to minimise the risk of passengers

1:29:14

trying to overwhelm and

1:29:17

overpower, well, anyone

1:29:19

really. You see,

1:29:21

in this group

1:29:24

of 15 individuals, sorry-looking

1:29:26

individuals, are Rosie

1:29:29

and Josie. They are bought

1:29:31

out, they're still wearing their kind of

1:29:33

hoods. But they're

1:29:35

not. Why

1:29:38

not? They are now like stripey, black

1:29:40

and white, prison

1:29:43

and you, kind of like long hooded

1:29:47

cloaks. Vertical or horizontal?

1:29:50

Horizontal, surely. Horizontal, yeah. Very flattering, very

1:29:52

flattering. I didn't see what the problem

1:29:54

is. Yeah, as always, you

1:29:56

can't really make their faces out clearly, because

1:29:59

the hood's kind of a of school you can just kind of see

1:30:01

there like... That's

1:30:05

them, that's the witches. I'm gonna

1:30:08

make a bit of a fuss. Yes I know. They're the ones who

1:30:10

assaulted me. Yeah. Barnell, do you see them? I see

1:30:12

them. I see them. I do see

1:30:14

them Barnaby. The ones

1:30:17

in the scribey hoods. Yes. First of all,

1:30:19

it's very flattering. Yes. But don't let that

1:30:21

distract you. I know why we're here Barnaby.

1:30:25

See these witches burn and

1:30:27

to... Yes, before they can

1:30:29

pull any witchy stuff. Of

1:30:31

our little security enterprise. Exactly.

1:30:35

As they are loaded up they come to the

1:30:37

carriage, the glowing blue carriage, like

1:30:39

that, is the next one in the line. As

1:30:42

you have sort of organised the guards loading them

1:30:44

in, I guess like maybe

1:30:47

haven't been given the memo but why would

1:30:49

they? They sort of load Josie

1:30:53

into this and just put an arm

1:30:55

in front of Rosie. Wait did I say Josie? God this

1:30:57

is so hard. They

1:31:00

load Josie in, hold Rosie back. No

1:31:03

no no they need to be both in there. Have

1:31:05

you seen the ghost... Ghost feels. What can Barnaby

1:31:07

be? For pity's sake.

1:31:10

They're witches. Do you want to risk this? Surely

1:31:14

that all the carriages are secure.

1:31:17

And not secure enough for witches.

1:31:20

These common thieves, fine. Physical barriers

1:31:22

are fine but for witches we

1:31:24

need to make sure they're not

1:31:27

pulling any ghosty nonsense. Barnaby, if

1:31:29

we stop this now and

1:31:32

reload these carriages, it's going to put us

1:31:34

off schedule. Is that something you want? I'm

1:31:36

not saying reload, I'm saying just put them

1:31:38

both in the same bloody carriage. Make

1:31:41

me a roll fruit Barnaby. Don't

1:31:43

forget you can push yourself, you can

1:31:45

accept devil's bargains, you can do

1:31:48

all sorts of things. I'm on three stress, I guess

1:31:50

I should push myself, this feels important. Okay

1:31:56

I've got a five, a four

1:31:58

and two ones. Okay, for

1:32:02

pissy's sake. Stop! Darnell,

1:32:05

roar's out. Wait,

1:32:08

get out of that

1:32:10

one, put her in to the other one,

1:32:12

the one that just came, yeah, that blue one,

1:32:15

glowing one. How bloody

1:32:17

hard is it? Only one of them's glowing! Yeah.

1:32:21

Thank you, I feel much better. You have the kind

1:32:24

of carriages all kind of like stop awkwardly, some of the

1:32:26

goats just kind of like. Just

1:32:28

basically talking loads of the carriage in front of them. The

1:32:31

old miniature pile up. Yeah, it's got a

1:32:33

miniature slow motion pile up. It

1:32:35

is disorganized, but

1:32:38

Rosie is removed from the carriage that she had

1:32:41

been put in and put back in the one

1:32:43

with JC, which is the glowing one. The one

1:32:45

you want them both to be in together. Perfect,

1:32:48

now lock it up. Let's say that

1:32:51

this kind of slowdown is enough that

1:32:53

also one of the prisoners who hasn't

1:32:55

been loaded in yet uses the very

1:32:57

quite mild confusion, reckons this is

1:32:59

probably the best opportunity they're gonna get and makes a

1:33:01

run for the gates. We've got a runner! Wait

1:33:05

a knock part of me. They

1:33:09

don't get very far, the blue coats stop. It's

1:33:12

important to my disguise.

1:33:17

I appear to be a massive knock, so yeah. Yeah, that

1:33:19

is a point out of the runner. You are completely right.

1:33:22

Maybe against your better instincts, because after all, you

1:33:24

are a thief. Of course, but I

1:33:26

need to appear like a thief. Exactly.

1:33:30

Yeah, but the

1:33:33

illusion is maintained because this person is savagely

1:33:35

beaten and dragged back. However, it all puts

1:33:37

the whole thing off schedule.

1:33:40

And basically the consequences of

1:33:43

this Barnaby is that Darnell, the complication

1:33:45

if you like, Darnell has lost patience

1:33:47

with you. He's now officially annoyed that

1:33:50

this delay had to happen. Oh Darnell,

1:33:52

do calm down and I take another of my light

1:33:54

load and pass him a drink. Oh

1:33:57

yeah, we did a new. Fair mode. In

1:34:00

this town, I'm not drinking today Barnaby. This

1:34:02

is important. You have days when you don't

1:34:05

drink On days

1:34:07

when I'm working on days of my company's

1:34:09

reputation your companies reputation as well might I

1:34:11

remind you is on the line Fine

1:34:15

fine. I advise you to say so as

1:34:17

well in fact put it away. Give me

1:34:19

that drink. All right, pause it out

1:34:23

You have to like load left. I'm

1:34:25

guessing they're probably The procession, procession convoy

1:34:27

get underway As

1:34:35

it is and it

1:34:37

now starts to move its way through the through

1:34:40

the streets of Volus port

1:34:42

it is lined by The

1:34:44

citizenry who've all come out to kind of

1:34:47

witness these fancy carriages and just a year

1:34:49

they know that somewhere in here other

1:34:52

to condemned who have been taken to the

1:34:54

execution site and they are basically you know,

1:34:57

it's like The mob is

1:34:59

out in force basically. They are kept Well

1:35:02

in check by many blue coats,

1:35:04

you know mounted mounted guard either

1:35:06

side of the procession And

1:35:10

as you come up to the street where Lilith you are

1:35:12

you are hiding Seemingly from nowhere

1:35:14

falling in with this procession are

1:35:16

a group of spirit wardens They

1:35:19

are just kind of walking they They're

1:35:22

just kind of gliding ominously along as well.

1:35:24

So you now have Private

1:35:27

security you've got blue coats. You've got

1:35:29

spirit wardens here security

1:35:32

Could not be tighter or more intimidating. I guess Lilith

1:35:34

you're just kind of keeping pace with the you know,

1:35:36

kind of moving along I imagine you at the back

1:35:38

of the crowd Yeah,

1:35:40

yeah, you know on what happens all

1:35:43

of a sudden You both of you

1:35:45

hear a kind of Kind

1:35:47

of noise and the convoy Stops

1:35:51

grinds to a halt again goats just Push

1:35:56

into the into the carriages in front and

1:35:58

over the noise of the crowd you can hot hot

1:36:00

hot hot what?

1:36:02

it seems like there's a problem Barnaby

1:36:05

I don't know what this is you! what's

1:36:07

1:36:09

a problem with the first carriage something's gone

1:36:25

true path of justice? unbelievable

1:36:30

true path of justice whatever I'm

1:36:32

just looking to get paid here Barnaby yeah me too

1:36:37

1:36:39

1:36:43

the crowd of like what's going on is

1:36:48

there something wrong? blue

1:36:50

coats are looking shifty, people are you

1:36:53

know clearly being on their guard the spirit wardens

1:36:55

are just as always just staring impassively out but

1:36:57

they're now kind of scanning the crowd looking

1:37:00

for suspicious characters let's see if

1:37:02

they find Lilith they can

1:37:04

look at me after all Lilith

1:37:07

make me a roll to kind of stay out of the um

1:37:11

okay stay out of the limelight

1:37:13

if you like okay so prowl

1:37:16

I guess is it? yeah

1:37:19

ooh a five and a two, a five

1:37:23

okay yeah you

1:37:25

do manage to stay out of reach

1:37:29

however from your you know behind

1:37:31

a family who brought the kids out

1:37:33

to see an execution lovely

1:37:37

family day out yeah exactly you

1:37:39

do you see a blue coat hooked sort

1:37:41

of jogging back jogging

1:37:44

up to Darnell and just found

1:37:47

this sir um jammed

1:37:49

into a wheel of front carriage front

1:37:52

left uh yeah

1:37:55

clearly sabotage and passes that are kind

1:37:57

of now mangled and bent

1:38:00

elongated telescoping

1:38:02

spear kind of contraption.

1:38:07

Haven't they made their move? The

1:38:09

characters have stopped but what's

1:38:11

happening now? Nothing. Barnaby,

1:38:14

that's the first sensible thing you've said all day.

1:38:17

Possibly ever. You're

1:38:19

right. This is clearly

1:38:21

sabotage. Look at this. Man-made.

1:38:24

Placed in the wheels. Right. What's

1:38:27

this? It's got a stamp

1:38:29

on the bottom. Lumiere. No.

1:38:36

Is that a subsidiary of Astor Corporation or what?

1:38:38

I've never heard of it. We'll look

1:38:40

into that later. Right. Oh no. We just

1:38:42

need to get through today.

1:38:45

But you're right Barnaby. If

1:38:48

this is sabotage... It's

1:38:51

awfully quiet. Why is no one making

1:38:53

a move? Search

1:38:56

the carriages. I want the inside of

1:38:58

each carriage checked. Yes sir. Do

1:39:01

the coach run back? Should we

1:39:03

personally oversee the investigation? Don't

1:39:06

know. It feels like both of us. You know, you've got a keen

1:39:08

eye and I've not had

1:39:10

as much drink as I would have had if

1:39:12

you hadn't poured it away. So maybe we'll both

1:39:14

spot something. Yes Barnaby. And as I said, you've

1:39:17

been... since you stopped drinking recently... I've become

1:39:19

dangerously effective. You've become dangerously clever.

1:39:24

Okay, here's what's happening now. Big teams of blue

1:39:26

coats are doing this thing where they each need

1:39:28

two keys. And starting from the front most carriage,

1:39:30

they are opening each one, doing

1:39:33

a kind of breach and clear open,

1:39:36

checking that the prisoner is in there still, you

1:39:38

know, kind of bound and manacled. Someone is, you

1:39:41

know, kind of looking

1:39:44

around the inside of each carriage.

1:39:48

They don't know what they're looking for, but like

1:39:50

something weird is going on. Like

1:39:53

something's up. And

1:39:56

this group just basically starts moving down

1:39:59

the convoy one by one. one checking them and

1:40:01

they are approaching the glowing blue

1:40:04

carriage that contains Rosie and Josie.

1:40:07

Keep an eye on the blue coats just your

1:40:09

boys make sure they're not trying anything funny. Of

1:40:12

course. Right next

1:40:14

one to be checked this one open

1:40:17

it up lads two keys go in like

1:40:20

that they open the doors Rosie

1:40:24

and Josie are sat there they

1:40:28

look out at you Barnaby can they see you from here yeah

1:40:31

I'm inspecting the I'm

1:40:33

inspecting the carriages with Darnell so that you know we'll be positioned

1:40:36

such that we can see into the I'm assuming

1:40:38

they're doors on the rear like

1:40:40

a van yes that's not what I

1:40:42

was imagining but yes that makes more sense yes

1:40:44

well no actually no because the goats are smushed

1:40:46

up against them no the goats that the the

1:40:48

doors on the side the other side of the

1:40:51

carriage yeah well either way

1:40:53

I can see them they both

1:40:55

turn and just slowly look at

1:40:57

you Barnaby mm-hmm raise her eyes quizzically meanwhile

1:41:00

Lilith I do this

1:41:03

over in the crowd you

1:41:05

hear you hear a little voice next to you how's

1:41:08

it going Finn what

1:41:10

are you doing here oh

1:41:12

um they weren't

1:41:14

very nice to me they scared me so I left

1:41:19

they was muttering odd chance

1:41:21

and saying scary things about pulling ghosts

1:41:23

apart and so I thought being a

1:41:26

ghost I didn't want to get pulled

1:41:28

apart so I floated out the

1:41:30

bottom of the carriage and I came to find

1:41:32

you okay because I was scared okay

1:41:34

yes of course you may and then

1:41:36

give her a little hug I'm

1:41:40

like right I open my one my

1:41:42

spirit box I'm like do you wanna hop in there and

1:41:44

I'll keep you safe yeah I'm sorry I

1:41:47

didn't do the job very well and

1:41:49

I'm really sorry I didn't deliver the

1:41:51

message um okay they're

1:41:53

scary and it's up to them

1:41:56

do not have been scary so

1:41:58

fitting She's in.

1:42:00

Look into the gut and she's like... Okay,

1:42:02

what I would like to do then... Can I

1:42:04

see... Can I see any... Any... Like, can I

1:42:06

see Lillith at all? Am I like... I'm

1:42:09

probably looking around and going... ... potentially?

1:42:11

But Barnaby, what you have seen is

1:42:13

that Rosie and Josie are in this

1:42:16

carriage when you were sort of... ...

1:42:18

presumably... ... expecting, flash-dreading

1:42:20

that this door would open to

1:42:22

reveal... ... nobody. Yeah.

1:42:26

Right. Okay. Is

1:42:28

there something to do with you two? Why

1:42:30

have our carriages stopped? I

1:42:32

don't know. Honestly, if

1:42:34

this is some sort of plan to escape it's not going

1:42:37

very well, is it? Why don't we? My respect for you

1:42:39

has gone completely through the floor.

1:42:42

Completely through the

1:42:45

floor. Hahahaha!

1:42:56

Shut the door. I've had enough of these two. I

1:43:01

would... I would like... Okay, I'm

1:43:03

going to try something wild. I would like

1:43:05

to push myself and

1:43:07

cast Tempest. Okay.

1:43:10

Remind you what Tempest is. So,

1:43:12

Tempest, I can push myself to do one of the following. Unleash

1:43:14

a stroke of lightning as a weapon. Summon

1:43:16

a storm in your immediate vicinity. Torrential rain, roaring

1:43:18

winds, heavy fog, chilling

1:43:22

frost or snow, etc. So, I

1:43:24

would just like... So, I'd like to keep an eye

1:43:26

on where the carriage is. I'd like to keep an

1:43:28

eye on where the carriage is and I would just

1:43:30

like to cast a thick, heavy fog around

1:43:33

the carriage. And

1:43:36

then... like... try

1:43:40

and... run through,

1:43:43

get in the carriage myself while the

1:43:45

door is open. Stamp

1:43:48

twice and drag the two girls underneath the

1:43:50

ceiling and shut the door because...

1:43:53

Aaaah! I mean, yeah, there's gold

1:43:56

and there's bold. Yeah, I

1:43:58

would say roll for that. Push yourself. Let

1:44:00

me think of a devil's bargain probably Barnaby you want

1:44:02

to help Yeah, why is the

1:44:04

storm clouds gather? I'm just

1:44:06

gonna start screaming about witchcraft witchcraft. They're

1:44:09

doing this Any

1:44:11

noise There

1:44:14

might be more of them everyone look up they

1:44:16

might be on the on the rooftops Nice

1:44:19

nice nice. Okay, so

1:44:21

Barnaby if you do want to help by doing that

1:44:23

you do you have to do is take one stress

1:44:26

for the Situation

1:44:29

and if you can add

1:44:31

one D, so I'm doing

1:44:34

Finesse I'm gonna push myself. Yeah, let's

1:44:36

count the dice. So how many dice

1:44:38

have you got so far? You in

1:44:40

finesse to know guys. Yeah pushing myself

1:44:43

Potempo so I'm guessing that's another one

1:44:45

and helping up one for Barnaby on

1:44:48

Barnaby Okay, you want a devil's bargain

1:44:50
