## Transcript

Yo, yo, yo. Hope you guys are doing awesome. We are back for a kind of a short stream. Unfortunately, I didn't schedule properly today.
So what we're going to do now is I've got until about 3 p.m. to play the absolute bejeebus out of this game. You can make an awesome progress. I have been loving Blood of the Dawn, Blood Walker, Donner.
It's been great. And so, yeah, it's going to be a good time. It's going to be a good time. A little eugenics plushie. Oh, God. I cannot get this to stay up for the life of me.
Stacy, you need to stay up. Come on, Stacy. You got to work with me, girl. There we go. Okay. Perfect. Perfect. Oh.
Okay.
Is Kog going to come back for a cozy tonight? Yes, I'm planning on doing a Valheim cozy base building stream. We're going to start by clearing out some more crypts for iron, and then we're going to sail back an entire ship full of iron
and then we're going to continue building our base. We actually may have to do a stone... We have to do a stone thing. We'll get some more stone, but we'll figure it out. Okay! We are currently with Lachra
uncovering Callius' secrets in the Sunken Crypt. Ooh. Before the dawn strikes, etched above the dark light bathing, don't forget the words below, life-liar forsaken fool.
Fucker. This looks like a little library. All that survives here are some scraps. He was obsessed with his project. I bet this whole place used to be filled with his notes.
I've seen this kind of obsession before. Let's keep looking. Hmm. I can barely even tell what these used to be.
I don't think you could tell even if they were brand new. Ouch! There's something seriously unnerving about these. It's like those plants took over them.
Like a parasite. What is this? Look. A macra? It's a good thing you came here, Cohen.
It's like some shroud of darkness stifling the sun. Dreamless dreams. I wonder sometimes, what is it about the idea of burning the world down that's sometimes so irresistible?
Do you know what he was trying to do? I just told you, didn't I? Hmm.
Shit. Can't count. Get butterflies. Oh. Get butterflies on my ass. What in the world? Victim.
Eww. Wait, can we go the other way? Hold on. Go.
OK. They can look good in a draft, don't you think? Their features are sharp. They're a hint of danger, even if it's not real. So danger will come to people. It could be.
Oh, God. Rude. How are these things not fighting? Uh-oh.
Come on, Aaron. I'm sorry.
Squint.
Hey, girl, this is all you've done the whole time. The whole time you've been fighting.
Ken was a fight chalet. Ended up as guardians of his team. Poetic. I'm not sure what kind of poetry you read. I don't think I'd like it. God, he sounds so much like Zacharias sometimes. It's crazy to me.
Look at that. I have never seen anything like it before. I'm a bit jealous, Callius, I won't lie. Blowing things with smithereens is useful, sure, but... Oh, I don't know.
so
wow
When they die, go away.
Could they feel their bodies petrifying? I think it depends where the claw has struck and started the process. If you were lucky, the head of the heart. Otherwise, they likely have time to marvel a little.
Hmm. Whoa, what is this?
Malantropae est domine. In anthro ius ambulamus curbus metul trembellidas. No, I'm not gonna read this. He brought a tablet with a prayer to order to... Is that Rackier?
Oh Oh it a vamp sword Hell yeah man Okay it a sword for vampires Lovely.
Oh. Nope, that went. He dingles. Okay, okay. Looks like Talos is resting, Traynor. An old tomb turned into a blackened mask.
Come on, go ahead and attack me, guys. I'll find out. Do a little red thing and then attack me. No? But one time. Right. I love you.
Thank you.
I'm going to go ahead and do that.
Oh, fuck.
We've got a dead end after all. It might be a few centuries too late. It was a crapshoot, and it can't all work out. Or else I'd need a different name. I met up with Arius's lair.
Surely something must be here. Nothing's for sure when you're dealing with the worst. Sickle little bugger. I didn't take you for a quitter. Oh, a quitter, am I?
Fine. Let's give it another go. But you talk. Tell me what that thought at the back of your mind is. The one knowing to get out.
It's about my brother. Arlene. The one Bensis has captured? No. My other brother. I used to have two of them.
Close to the under the knee. I mean drowned in the river. And I was there. What happened?
The river was frozen. He wanted to skate on it. I should have known better. I should have told him no. I was over there to guess what could happen.
I hadn't fucking told him what might happen. What did I do? I said, let's go. I just wanted to have some fun. And our father didn't let us play much.
I thought, just this once, when the ice broke, he fell in. In the blink of an eye, he didn't even grab the edge.
Nothing. I can't get the sound of the cracking out of my head. It was a split second, but it never goes away.
You need to understand one thing, Coy. You're human. Not literally sure, but in some ways you will always be human. And you're allowed to be one.
It's hard. But possible. It's easier to hate a thousand times than to forgive once. Especially yourself. I guess you'll want to hold a grudge.
Hold one? Darling, once I get my hands on a grudge, I absorb it. I become it.
Look who's here. Was I wrong? Is there something behind that wall? Hmm, odd. Let's take a look. This wall, it seems different. Newer, perhaps.
Look at these roots, Latra. They're growing in from the outside. No, fuck this. I've had enough staring at walls.
Colin! Check this out.
Bloody hell. I really don't want to call this beautiful, but... I don't think you have much of a choice. This could be where Callie has died.
His essence is spreading from here. Come on. Let's go to find out.
Fuck. I don't feel evil about the ritual. Certainly. At that point, they're ruined. Everything here is just dust and filth. Oh, wonderful.
Hurry. Get over here Now
Holy hell, this... This... Fuck, this I did not expect.
Just what are we looking at? Cullis.
And... a london. Come on, Brent. We couldn't have been luckier. What about his notes? You know, the ones we came searching for?
Look, there's one here. I have a contact. Oh, sure, I'll read them later and fill you in at your convenience. But whatever's in them, it can't be any better than this pretty little bluffing.
Do we want this thing? Want this? Cohen, you've still got your mind up on solving books and scrolls, haven't you? Well, stop. Yes, we want this. I'd wipe my arse with all of Callie's her scribbling for just a taste of this.
Why didn't he turn to dust like other procuring? I don't know. He was different. He reached deeper. he pulled through the veil and it preserved his body.
It's incredible, isn't it? Guys, I am so sorry. Like, there is nothing more frustrating
than having one person tell you that things are going to be super easy and absolutely fine and just talk to this person and then that person gives you a call and is asking all these questions that you weren't expecting. You don't know the answers to, and it gets to the end of the call where you're just like,
call the first person back. Like, I don't even know what you, like, what? This line of communication is completely broken down. That's very frustrating.
It seems like the first person just kind of pawned me off, and that's very frustrating. Anyway, sorry about that. We're back. Yeah, no, I don't even work here. That's not what it felt like. Okay, here we go.
What was he trying to do here to end up with all of this? Whatever it was, Mahai had to seal it. Whether Callius was dead or not, there is no telling what he had already done.
What could seep out otherwise? Now, the Mandrake. The Mandrake? Never heard of it. Really? You?
Call me surprised. Wow, Akra. I've heard something like this could happen. If a vratir was powerful enough, if his essence lingered in one place for centuries, his ashes, his teeth, whatever, something could bloom from them and it did.
Behold, the flower of Anahora. Come on, Carol. It looks grippy. Feed on it and feel the power, I promise you.
Feed? Are you sure eating this thing is safe? Yes. Well, for us. People to humans, but for us... Oh, Cohen, enough questions. Do it.
I mean, we have eaten worse. I'm going to... I'm kind of curious to see what happens if we do this. Dang, it's vile. I'm not going near it. Are you shitting me?
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. This is a source of power that I clearly dream of. So, the thing I'm a little conflicted about here is, like, our no-human playthrough would kind of not feed into this.
But, I mean, we are also doing everything we can to save our families. So, I am conflicted. I am conflicted. All right.
Let's see. Good. You almost made a terrible, terrible mistake. Okay. Okay.
This explains why the round veil is based in a round hair spell. after all this time. Now I get it.
Oh. Oh, yeah. Oh, it's like Kool-Aid, man. Oh, yeah. Oh. How you could get drunk on.
I feel it burning through my veins and my, do I like it. Actually, can Vakiris still get drunk?
That's an interesting question. No. And yes. Come here in a second. I'll show you something.
What's that? What do you want to show me? Imagine for a second that they're all gone. Your entire family doesn't exist. Not in a gruesome way.
That might ruin the fantasy, right? What I mean is just a simple non-existence. They never were. They never will be. Hang on.
It's just you. How does it feel? Like freedom. And I emerged from nothingness mere moments ago.
And here we are. Nothing to do. Nowhere to die I like it Then let make the leave Just for a little bit
How about that? After feasting on the blood heart. There. Drink.
Let's have some fun. Uh. Uh. Oh. Okay. That's a thing that they have to do, I guess?
I don't know. Get it, then.
Fight me. Uh. Oh. Oh.
No. Oh. See? Told you it'd be fun. Wait, she's not gonna...
It's only for him? Is that... Oh. Oh. Do you know what would feel better than ever right now?
Oh, it takes a whole time thing? Oh, we can't do that. That takes time. Okay, fine. A bath. Yeah, that would probably be good. A napkin for their face, that would probably be good, too.
Correct. Ah. Oh, look at that. We guessed right, chat. Oh. Oh.
Is she gone? That'd be hilarious. If you ever have a note, be like, thanks for last night. See ya.
Did I fall asleep? Yeah. Lachra? Lachra? Lachra?
Oh, shit. I don't know what you have to do here. Yeah, just leave, I guess.
Discard Common Sense, follow Akra, and then find the Mandrake. Nice. Okay, what is our next thing? That was fun.
We're working on Bakir. We've gotten to the end of Lachra's quest. We've gotten to the end of the Manumit's quest.
Distant Shadow. Did we finish all of the quests for Vito? Vito? Let's keep doing...
We're going to keep doing Bakir stuff for now. Yeah. Oh, Mesmerize. Mind control a target and forcing the fight on your side?
Okay. Oh wow, let's go over here. Check the Mandrake perk in the Vampire skill tree.
Once per night upon taking lethal damage, regain three health segments. Dude. Whoa. Whoa! That's cool! Mandrake Ward, hell yeah man!
Uh, oh I was gonna do sword mastery, heck yeah man, let's do this. We're gonna do... more damage. Oh wait, we can't do that yet. Um... We got the heavy armor.
15% activate, uh, activate recharge restoration. Great. Oh, you need four points to unlock these?
Okay, well, I'm gonna save up for that. Okay, great. Okay, so now we're going... here.
Oh, this has been unlocked? We've unlocked it, but we haven't got it yet. You missed the Vico quest? Oh, do the armor craft quest line. That's a good idea. We could do that next. Actually, let's do the armor quest one first. I really like how they do the
quest journal it makes it like unnecessarily hard to oh here we go to do this stuff okay return to the Uriashi blacksmith There.
Great. You missed the farm quest for the merchant part? We haven't been to the farmhouse north of town yet. Do I need to do that to continue the quest?
Because I'm happy to. Cool. You again, what want?
Okay, one second. Okay. I got a letter. It's amazing sometimes how just connecting the dots can work.
Right.
You go. Find what need. Return. I make armor. Now. No! No! Oh! Ooh. I was able to find one of the components for the armor.
Good. So. Hey! Good show! That's right. Uhhhh... Here's the mold.
Wait, do I have everything already? Did we get it all?
