ItemKnown Details
Walker’s Ward “While wearing this amulet, you are immune to magic that allows others creatures to read your thoughts, determine whether you are lying, know your alignment, know whether you have the ability to cast spells and at what level, and know your creature type. Creatures can telepathically communicate with you only if you allow it. [01:22:37]”
Hare’s Charm “While wearing it, you can augment your jumping abilities. You can cast Jump only on yourself. [02:03:25]”
Otter’s Charm “This will allow you to be at home in water like an otter would be. You can swim very quickly. [02:03:36]”
Spring Charm “...allows you to take a minute and heal yourself once per day. And in addition to that, you have advantage on saving throws against to avoid being the poisoned condition while you wear the amulet. So you have a natural resistance to poison. [02:03:44]”
Spell scroll “...of a spell that is beyond [Occtis’s] ability to cast. [01:40:20]”
Promise scroll to the Circle of Stones “...something like a written record of a promise made to a druidic order, to the Circle of Stones. [01:40:33]”

Below reads “It typically takes between 2 and 10 days to cancel a subscription”, and a red “Done” button is at the bottom of the screen beneath multiple happy face emojis. Ashley smiles as she displays the tablet, and Sam gives an open-mouth grin, hands raised to point at Ashley.

A Royal Recap

Sundered and Vassal houses and their leaders

  • House Halovar (Yanessa Halovar)
  • House Tachonis (Primus Tachonis)
    • House Seremai
  • House Royce (Aranessa Royce)
    • House Davinos (Raimond Davinos, deceased)
  • House Einfasen (Otto Einfasen)
    • House Kerzingblad
  • House Cormoray

Some Avian Arithmetic

Could the vulture catch the pigeon, given:

  1. The pigeon’s speed is 60 mph
  2. The vulture’s speed is 60 ft per round = 6.82 mph
  3. The pigeon must rest for 8 hours a day, and the vulture doesn’t need to rest
  4. The pigeon was freshly rested when it left
  5. Head/tail winds are negligible

Per day, the pigeon would travel 960 miles in 16 hours, plus 8 hours of rest. The vulture would travel 163.68 miles in 24 hours. The vulture would never catch the pigeon. In order for the vulture to catch the pigeon at all, the pigeon would need to fly less than 2.728 hours per day.

Sam’s New Chalice

Sam sitting at the table behind a large ornate silver chalice. The chalice has spokes emerging from the curve of its cup reminiscent of Candescent Creed sun ray designs. A turquoise gem is set in the side with more sun ray designs drawn in black around it, exactly matching Wicander’s circlet. Four more turquoise gems are set around the wide base of the chalice. Sam looks forward, mischief on his face. A splint is on his right ring finger.

The Story of Beatrix

A screenshot from the Mighty Nein animated series of a young Caleb standing in front of a burning house. Caleb, wearing a cloak, is facing away from the viewer. He is cast entirely in silhouette from the light of the flames. The house is two stories, its roof sloping steeply up to a point. Two wooden fences emerge from out of frame and draw the eye towards the scene.

An Ideal Teor

A hand-drawn diagram from an academic paper of a cat modeled as two cylinders flipping itself feet-down as it falls. A tail, four feet, and a smiling cat face are in-expertly drawn onto the cylinders, mixing the style of a geometric figure with a child’s doodle. The diagram is labeled “6.1. A Cartoon. Probably the simplest path resulting in the cat flip is the one depicted below.” The diagram is in five stages. First, labeled “a (begin)”, the two cylinders are end-to-end and the cat is feet-up. In stage “b”, the cylinders pivot at their joining point towards each other, moving the cat’s front and rear legs together. In stage “c”, the cylinders are touching on their long ends, modeling the cat bending in half at the waist, the cat’s smiling face and tail both facing straight up. In stage “d”, the cylinders flip so that the cat’s legs are facing out, modeling the cat bending fully in half backwards so its head is level with its butt. In stage “e (end)”, the cylinders are end-to-end again, this time with the cat facing feet-down.
