Saturday the 15th of Coldeven, evening
Start session as the party heads away from the Temple of Shargaas, west towards Pascorel.
Easeis casts speak with animals as the group passes by a raven in a tree just outside the ruins. It tells him that the orcs and slavers have departed the temple and headed downriver. The party manages to put some distance from the ruins, even with the swampy rough terrain, and finally stops to camp for the night at about 9PM. Dour and Easeis and then Koram and Easeis take the watch shifts, and the party manages a long rest undisturbed.
Sunday the 16th of Coldeven. At about 0500, the party breaks camp and sets off west once again. As dawn breaks, Eilo summons three creatures from her bag of tricks. This time the balls of fur turn into a baboon, black bear and tiger. The party travels through the day and again camps undisturbed.
Monday the 17th of Coldeven. Following her routine, Eilo summons 3 new animals at dawn as the party is traveling. Today, a giant hyena, black bear and tiger join the group. The party passes sentries from Pascorel at the river, and just a few hours later, the group arrives at the large village of Pascorel.
The party is allowed to camp outside the trading post area, and it appears there are many traveling merchants from a large caravan currently present in Pascorel. The party spends the afternoon wandering the merchant stalls and decompressing from all the trials of late. The merchants include; vehicles/transport, leatherworker, tools, songbooks and musical instruments, Merchant/Cleric of Zilchus (God of Banking and Wealth), scrolls and spellbooks, jewelry, and an Astral Traveler Legendary merchant.
Several of the party have heard of the Bank of Zilchus and the services they offer. The group agrees that this is the perfect opportunity for them to set up a vault with the Bank and use their unquestionably respected and safe services to store the large silver ingots from Zelligar's cache. The party votes Koram should set up the account and be responsible as the Designee and holder of the Zilchus sending stone provided when a vault account is set up. Eilo wants to have a sit down with Loris before we conclude business, and has a conversation before Koram meets with the human cleric of Zilchus at his armored wagon with his 4 well equipped footmen guards standing nearby. 500gp is paid to set up the vault and Loris hands Koram the Designee Sending Stone, which can be used to call for a magical or mundane wealth pickup depending on location. There is a 10% fee on the value of items to be picked up charged by the bank per day of travel to pick up or drop off wealth. The group unloads the 15 large silver blocks worth 4,500gp with Loris, and he tells the party there is no charge for the initial deposit since we are just setting up our vault account. Koram thanks Loris and heads to the leatherworker to get a specially made hidden pouch that can be strapped under armor or outer clothing to rest under the arm like a shoulder holster/sheath. The party also takes the time to sell off all the excess gear to any of the merchants interested in buying the items.
Jess and Theron, two of the prisoners rescued from the slavers and members of the local militia in Pascorel, arrive with the village elder and offer the hospitality of the village to the party. They have spoken highly of the group's exploits against the orcs and slavers. The party is brought to the local tavern and has dinner and pastries with the Jess, Theron and the elder. Eilo performs a few tunes on her flute and is given a free meal and drinks. Easeis buys dinner for the rest of the party, Jess, Theron and the elder. The group also arranges rooms for the night. The elder asks the group if they would be willing to check Leraizen for orcs or slavers and clear the ruins/Temple of Shagraas, offering to pay the party 200gp if they succeed.
After the meal, Easeis heads out to a tavern near the docks and sits for a while drinking and chatting with an old riverboat sailor. He casts detect thoughts to verify some information on the name, Devolder. The sailor vaguely remembers the name as belonging to a highborn or noble pirate captain that was active along the Wild Coast some 15-20 years ago. The old boatman also tells Easeis that he may have more luck finding information about the pirate in Cantona, and possibly Safeton.
Eventually everyone ends up in their rooms resting comfortably for the first time in many days. The next morning Eilo summons a giant weasel and two axebeaks from her bag of tricks. The party then catches up with the village elder and tells him that they will at least check Leraizen and possibly venture back to the ruins as time and other priorities allow.
The party has barely left the village when Eilo receives a sending from Periwinkle. She states that she is in Wyvernen and needs help as she is being hunted.
The companions immediately turn back to Pascorel and look to book passage on a boat heading downriver to Wyvernen. Everyone has their own reasons for wanting to catch up to the strange halfling. The party manages to find passage on one of the sleek longships that ply the river.
End Session 39 - Group is on the longship that has just departed for Wyvernen.
Total XP : Eilo, Easeis and Kismet : 5,975 - Magar : 5,805 - Dour : 5,825 - Koram : 6,110
See below for Discord in character notes and game that occurred between sessions.
Lasarian DM: Because I feel as though I cheated Eilo her moment in the Zone of Truth because who the hell asks those kinds of questions and I can't be prepared with an extensive backstory for every damned NPC you meet... nevertheless, here is what Loris said, in part, during his time inside the Zone of Truth with Eilo.
"My name is Loris, I was born to a family of merchants who were known for their shrewd business sense and attention to detail. My father was a successful trader who specialized in importing and exporting exotic goods from faraway lands. My mother was a skilled accountant who managed the family finances with an iron fist. I grew up in a household where every penny was accounted for, and where hard work and dedication were highly valued.
I have two older sisters who were both expected to follow in their mother's footsteps and become accountants, but I had had different aspirations. From a young age, I was drawn to the teachings of Zilchus, the god of commerce and wealth. I would spend hours reading religious texts and studying the intricacies of the banking system.
I attended a prestigious boarding school where I excelled in mathematics and economics. It was during my time at school that I first realized my calling to become a cleric of Zilchus. I devoted himself to my studies, and after completing my education, I entered the service of the Temple. It was here that I met my first love, a fellow student named Maia who shared my passion for devotion to Zilchus.
I have been a cleric for over a decade now and have worked his way up the ranks to become one of the most trusted advisors of the church. I am married to a fellow cleric named Eilidh, whom I met while studying at the abbey. We have two children, a son named Duncan and a daughter named Fiona.
Whenever I can, I like to indulge in my favorite pastry, Buttered Almond Bread, which I encountered during my travels through the Kron Hills. I have been hooked ever since."
After Eilo receives the sending from Periwinkle and the group has turned back into Pascorel...
Eilo - "Loris! You haven't left yet, thank the stars! May I speak to you for a moment? It is so very important, and I will not bother you for very long at all. I am sorry for zipping past your guards."
Loris - "Ah, good morning. Eilo, wasn't it?" He looks around at the guards and then you. "Um, sure, I just need a moment to secure the wagon, I will be right back."
He offers you a seat on the outside rails of the wagon.
"Only be a moment."
Eilo sits on the wagon and swings her legs.
Eilo nibbles a vulture biscuit.
He returns in just a moment, smiling at you.
Loris - "What can I do for you, Eilo?"
Eilo - "Well... Can you do a Sending for me? I can tell you the whole story if you like, or a shorter story if you don't care as much, but if you can't do a Sending at all I can just go away."
Loris - "I can cast Sending for you, typically I would ask for a fee, but in this case, if you would just answer a few questions for me I would cast the spell for you."
Eilo - "Yes! Ok! And here is a good cookie for you. It's called a vulture biscuit which sounds terrible but if you like Buttered Almond Bread you will find them delicious." Eilo hands Loris a new cookie, not the one she was nibbling.
He thanks you for the cookie and tries it, clearly enjoying the taste. "Delicious." he agrees.
Loris - "While I was in the wagon, I cast Zone of Truth on us again and I would like you to tell me the following please: A complete genological history of your family going back at least two generations please, your mother's name, father's name, both of their parents names ... do they have any siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins? Do you have any siblings? Brothers or sisters? What is your favorite pastry? Who was your first love? How did you become drawn to magic? Where are you from? What is the name of your home? Could you tell me about your formative years in your home? Are there any childhood memories that stand out for you in particular? Did you have a best friend? Are you still in touch? When did you first experience loss? Who was it? What was that like? How did you meet your friends? How long have you been with them? "
Eilo - "My Mamma is named Vedermoda. She is very beautiful and she has very long pink hair that grows way way past her feet. She has to fly very high or her hair gets dirty on the bottom, but then I get to wash it which I like doing very much. When she was pregnant with my sisters she would get tired and fly lower and lower so that was a nice thing to be able to wash Mamma’s hair.
Mamma Vedermoda has six sisters: Lidande, Umbarande, Kampa, Strida, Streta, and Arbete. Mamma is the littlest. Kampa, Strida, Lidande and Streta all have pink hair like Mamma’s even though Mamma’s is the prettiest. Umbarande and Arbete have green hair just like her Peppa Beslut’s helper in the candy kitchen, but no one else has green hair! It’s very silly.
Mamma Vedermoda’s mother is named Nenna Alska, and she has two sisters and two brothers, so Mamma Vedermoda had Uncle Karlek, Auntie Noll, Auntie Alskling, and Uncle Halsning. Uncle Karlek and Auntie Alskling both went off to fight trolls and have wonderful adventures, and one day they will return and tell us many stories. Auntie Noll is very quiet and likes to watch things grow and she sighs a lot. Uncle Halsning is very funny and Mamma says he would tell such funny stories that Mamma would laugh so much that she would fart and then she would be embarrassed and laugh more and then the room would smell very bad.
Mamma Vedermoda’s father is named Peppa Beslut. Peppa Beslut’s siblings were devoured by turtles on a terrible day at the seaside and then he was given to the witches, so no aunties and uncles on that side.
My Dadda is named Stolthet. For a long time he made candy in Peppa Beslut’s candy kitchen, but then there was a terrible accident and his hands were burned with sugar so now he is a chive farmer. He loves Mamma Vedermoda very much even though he does not make her candy anymore.
Dadda Stolthet has three brothers, Hogfard, Antal, and Styrka. Styrka and Antal are very ugly, but Hogfard is handsome and smells like good cheese. Antal is very kind, and would give me cookies whenever he took them to market. Styrka is mean and no one loves him.
Dadda Stolthet’s parents are Nenna Dyster and Peppa Ond.
Nenna Dyster was a triplet and has two identical sisters but she has never spoken their names to me. Mamma Vedermoda told me that Nanna Dyster was cursed and that one of her sisters would explode if she spoke one of their names, but she could never be sure it would be the sister she wanted to explode, so she never took the chance. I think probably they had a bad fight but you never know.
Peppa Ond had a sister, Svart, but she married Nerrondo who was very mean and never let Svart visit Dadda Stolthet. So I know Dadda Stolthet has an Auntie Svart but Peppa Ond tells me he will need to be patient and wait for Nerrondo to die or Svart to run away or maybe feed him to the turtles one day. Then I will meet Auntie Svart.
I do also have three sisters! Their names are Gladje, Frojd and Noje. Gladje and Frojd and I would have many happy times playing in the pond behind our house. Noje did not like the pond because one time a turtle bit off her leg. She can still fly so I do not understand why she’s still so grumpy about it. The pond is very pretty. I am the oldest sister. I also have a brother Frojdas.
My favorite pastry is Skoldpadda, which is so wonderful! I will try to bring you one and you can try it and then I can try Buttered Almond Bread and then we will both be happy. Skoldpadda is flaky pastry which is filled with a mishmush of raisins and almonds and pistachios and soaked in ang for seventeen days. Not the pastry, because then it would be soggy! Silly. Just the filling is soaked in ang. Anyway, Skoldpadda have little almond feet and they are shaped like turtles. I ask for them on my birthday because Noje won’t eat them, so there are more for me.
My first love is named Ilska. He was very handsome and he had long purple hair and he would tie sticks in it and look very fierce. We would spend many hours talking and eating Skoldpadda and Dadda was teaching him how to make candy but he said he could never be content with the life of a candy-maker so he ran away with a weasel-farmer named Draskel who has ugly hair and now they have seven children with ugly hair that is not purple. I do not think Ilska is happy and I have mean thoughts about him which makes me sad but also a little happy, and I am trying to stop enjoying those mean thoughts.
I became drawn to magic after I fell through the ice of Lake Oerfaren. My wings became soaked and I couldn’t move them, and they pulled me down and down and down and I said my goodbyes to all of my family and thought happy thoughts about them all (this was before Ilska, so it was easier to think happy thoughts about him) and then I was rescued by [STRANGE STATICKY NOISE] and I devoted my life to serving [STRANGE STATICKY NOISE] and following the path of goodness and healing and sometimes that path is so very difficult and then I am punished but so far [STRANGE STATICKY NOISE] forgives me and I hope I will not fail too terribly in my service.
I am from Old Woods, a little village to the southeast of Astrazalian. Sometimes tinkers from Astrazalian will visit Old Woods, but not very often. We are a very small place, and now that no one makes candy here, there is even less reason to visit.
I had a mostly happy childhood in Old Woods! We would sing lots of songs in our little house. It was built into the side of a tree and the nice rooms were all in the big branches but the smaller childrooms were in the upper branches which were smaller and grew upways and sometimes it was nice to sleep with the wind moving your room but sometimes there were storms and only Frojdas was happy then.
One childhood memory I have is when I was small I wrapped up Frojdas in leaves and tied his arms and legs to his sides and left him on a stump. I hoped and hoped that he would be taken by trolls. This is before I was rescued by [STRANGE STATICKY NOISE] and began to follow the path of goodness. Frojdas cried and then he whimpered and then he got very quiet and his eyes got very small and mean and then I flew away. I do not like Frojdas.
I do also have a best friend! His name is Vaster and he has a squirrel’s tail that he wears as a cape and he is very brave. I have not seen him since I left Old Woods but I will tell him of all my adventures when I come back. Maybe I will even be able to bring my new friends to meet Vaster and then we can all be friends together.
The first time I experienced loss was when Ilska left me for Draskel. We already talked about that and I did not like it at all. I do not have mean thoughts anymore about Ilska though. Not many.
I was sent by the temple of [STRANGE STATICKY NOISE] to leave the Feywild and come through the portal in Celene and to learn more things about being good and strong and wise because the priests there said they were done with me which means I learned everything there was to learn there! I traveled up through the Kron Hills but I did not try any Buttered Almond Bread and then I came to Greyhawk because there is a great library there and I thought that would be a good place to learn new things and then I met my friends and I have been so very happy and I have learned some things but some things are hard and I am still trying.
Would you like my last Vulture Biscuit?"
Loris - "Yes, I'll take that last biscuit, thank you."
“Thank you, Eilo, that was very diverting. I wish you the best of luck. “. He hands you a scroll.
“Fortunately for you, we have many of these. I am curious, and I have dismissed the spell so you don’t have to tell me, why the urgency for a Sending spell this morning ?”
Eilo - "I received a message in the middle of the night from Periwinkle, who helped me rescue all of my friends and also some new people who were in prison and one who was dead but I healed her. Periwinkle stole something important from me so I am angry with her but she is also in very great trouble and danger and I want to help her even though she did something very bad. I want to Send to her that me and my friends are coming to rescue her, even though not all of my friends want to help her and just want to get our Thing back, but I want to help her and also to help her maybe be good. We are leaving right now."
"If you have many of those scrolls, may I have another one?"
"I don't have any other way of reaching Periwinkle, and I have to tell her Important Things, like to keep hiding and when to come out of hiding."
Eilo succeeds in her Persuasion check
Loris sighs: “Very well, one more, for the biscuits…”
“Now I must go Eilo. Good luck to you.”
Eilo - “Thank you Loris, you are very kind. May Zilchus bless you and your family.”
Eilo holds up the Sending scroll and speaks into it very seriously.
“Stay hidden. We’re coming downriver from Pascorel. Send your location at sunset tonight. Tell us bad things we should know. I’m still mad. Hugs, Eilo”
Easeis (musing) - "One, two, Easeis is coming for you. Three, four, better lock your door. Five, six... Witch bolt."
Eilo folds up the other Sending scroll and gives Easeis a look.
Dour - Did you read the scroll first, or just talk at it?
Easeis - "She definitely talked at the scroll and didn't cast it."
Lasarian DM - I really like the image of Loris handing Eilo a rolled up menu and Eilo unfurling it to scream at it.
Eilo to DM (Ooc) - In character here
Eilo - "I wasn't born on a chive farm yesterday."
Lasarian DM: You're right, sorry, I broke the RP
Eilo (Ooc) - Now Eilo has inspiration.
Lasarian DM - Eilo speaking of herself in the third person?
Easeis - "Really, then where is the mask you were trusted to protect with your life?"
Eilo hears a voice in her head asking her a question. She is very confused.
Eilo flies over to Easeis. "It's gone because I picked your life instead. And I would pick you and Kismet and Dour and Koram and Magar again and again and again."
Easeis - "And that's why I can't trust you."
Eilo stumbles backwards and drops to the ground.
Easeis - "You didn't stop to consider that we were capable. That our setback was temporary. You charged forward without thinking. You assumed us lost and showed no faith in us. You, didn't trust us."
Eilo - "I would like to be angry and say that I will not try to save you next time if given a chance. But I will always try to save you. Because that is what friends do."
Easeis - "So you say." Easeis walks away, realizes he's on a barge, and sighs.
Eilo gathers everyone, even Easeis, reluctantly, and quietly tells them what Periwinkle has Sent back to her. "She's wounded and she's on the move, but she's still in the city. She's being hunted by Dark Hunters, halfling-sized and wearing stone masks. She was somewhere called the Last Bastion but now she's underground. I told her to Send to us again at sunset with her location, which is when we should arrive."
Easeis to DM - Do we know anything about "Dark Hunters"?
Lasarian DM: Tough to tell hearing the term second hand, but it doesn't appear to be referring to a named creature, like an orc or a goblin, sounds more descriptive. "Unknown Assailant"
Easeis to DM - I assumed it was some kind of organization, like an assassins guild
Eilo to DM - Do the stone masks ring any bells?
Koram - The unexpected quiet, for once and relaxing barge ride, had Koram napping. He wakes up, looks around, and says, "What'd I miss?"
Lasarian DM - It's a fairly unimaginative description, there has probably been some organization of that name.
Lasarian DM - Not to you Eilo. The dwarves likely would recall some clans buried their dead with stone death masks.
Koram to DM - <If Kor has been caught up on what was discussed> Approach one of the boatmen and ask, "Have ye ever heared of a place called the Last Bastion?"
Boatman nods, "Aye, sir - a proper bawdy tavern in Wyvernen. Every soul aboard has slumped under their tables for a night."
Lasarian DM to group - It's early morning yet.
Koram - Toss the boatman a gold, "Thank ye kindly."
Lasarian DM - His eyes pop out of his head and he offers you a sailor's salute. "Bless ye, m'lord, anything else you need, I'm your servant."
Koram raps his knuckles against his chest plate and gives the boatman a nod.
Kismet to Koram - "That was very generous of you, he will be able to feed his family for quite some time!"
Kismet - Turning her head, she motions for Coco. "Fly ahead and search for Bad things. Return to me if you see anything wrong." With a soft coo, the great owl fluffs her feathers and launches herself towards the sky.
Koram - "I've thought on many a thing we've been through together in the last month, and feel that there's been things I shoulda handled a bit different. Moradin provides for me, and I'm gonna try ta help others more."
Kismet nods - "Our adventures seem to have caused all of us to look within, hmm? Just look at Easeis. To see such as he take a faerie under his care and look out for someone else is unbelievable. At the start of our adventures I never would have believed that I would look to our merry band as a second family but here we are!"
Easeis looks at Kismet with a look that can only be described as "are you high?"
Kismet frowning - "Surely you feel this energy and friendship that binds us to one another, Easeis? You cannot deny that, surely!!"
Easeis - "I know literally nothing about you beyond your name and that you have an affinity for fire."
Kismet chuckles "That is fair, but you haven’t shown much of an interest… other than wanting to blast poor Coco out of the sky!!
And besides all that, besides all of our different backgrounds and beliefs… I would trust my life to you. After all we’ve been through, can’t you feel that bond between us?"
Kismet blushes - "All I know is that I would try to keep you as safe as if you were my Coco."
Easeis - "Lady, a year ago I woke up naked in a Red Death burn pit. We haven't been through much."
Kismet laughs - "Ahhh, I believe the jokes on you, I am no lady. It’s ok, I don’t need your acknowledgment, I know what I know."
Lasarian DM: The original reason for Periwinkle was so I could participate in the excellent RP exchanges here …
Lasarian DM: back to your original programming…
Eilo looks up at “Red Death burn pit.”, and asks, “Is that what happened to you and made you… so much you?”
Easeis - "I don't know you well enough to get into my life story... however..." Easeis trails off...
"Assuming we get what we're looking for in Wyvernen, and then investigate the slavers in Leraizen and the second location that the guard in Pascorel asked us about... I would like to delay our trip to Zelligar's next cache, and instead go to Cantona.
If you do that for me, without prying or hassle. Maybe I'll trust you."
Eilo - “If we get the Aspect back, I would like to go to Greyhawk to investigate it further, but if it is important to you then I say we can go to Cantona. Where is Cantona?”
Easeis - "When the Wyvern's Run river meets the Woolly bay, if you turn north you head to Safeton. If you turn south, you head to Cantona. It is barely more than a day's travel. Assuming we get what we're looking for in Wyvernen, and then investigate the slavers in Leraizen and the second location that the guard in Pascorel asked us about... I would like to delay our trip to Zelligar's next cache, and instead go to Cantona. If you do that for me, without prying or hassle. Maybe I'll trust you."
Koram - "Well I'll be a... By Moradin's giant hairy...chin"
Shifting her weight from one foot to the other Kismet asks, "Do you really think we will catch up with Periwinkle? I want to believe we will but it’s hard to put your faith in someone who would just take off with such a priceless artifact."
Koram - "Me thinks there be a chance we catch up ta the wee halfling sneak, but as ta whether she'll be alive or not..."
Eilo - “I’ve fought by her side, I have little doubt she’ll be alive in twelve hours. She is fierce.”
Koram - "Fair be it then. She did help ta save our skins, and it strikes me odd that she just left after takin' what she wanted. I understand she may be upset over some things we done, but we did save her skin once as well."
"This whole exchange takes me back to what I said afore. Ye can believe or not, but Moradin has shown me there is a reason fer us ta all be together. I told ye afore that I'd help ta figure out from whence yer power comes, if ye chose ta look fer the answer. Cantona is on the maps exactly where ye say, and I'll back ye up if there's a need fer ye to go there. I'd like ta know the why of it, in case the knowin' helps us ta succeed in whatever it is we go to do, but I'll respect yer wishes if ye don't wish ta speak of it."
"Regardless of what we find out 'bout Periwinkle in Wyvernen, why not just continue ta Cantona right away? We'll be right close. On the way back, stop in Castle Sulafrait, trek ta the temple and clear it, then head ta Leraizen or Pascorel first as we see fit. Thoughts?"
Easeis - "I don't like shackles, be they from the law or from slavers. Slavers first."
Koram - "Fair 'nuff. Cantona is yer request, so as far as I'm concerned, yer leadin' us when it comes to it, and it's on yer timeline."
Eilo - “There will always be slavers to contend with. I want to know the truth of this thing we’re searching for, and why it’s being hunted so.”
Koram - "Power, ye flying cupcake, power, and maybe a lost faith, is why it's hunted. Greyhawk is a long journey, and we made promises here. Think we attend ta them first, help Easeis, and then sail to Greyhawk from Cantona. We hide the Aspect in one of the Bags of Holding, and just defend it until then."
Eilo - “It’s all poof and puffery if we don’t find Periwinkle and recover the Aspect. Let’s not pull our taffy before it’s hot.”
Easeis - "You're the one trying to lead us to Greyhawk before we've gotten it you impetuous mosquito."
Eilo rolls her eyes at Easeis. “I want to get our Thing back first, then go to Cantona because reasons, and then I want to go to Greyhawk. We’ll already be on the coast, and boats are fast.”
Eilo looks at Koram. “I’m not saying we break our promises, we’ll come back and attend to these slavers and the requests from Pascorel. If we head back this way, I would like to go further west to Celene.”
Koram - "The knowledge in Greyhawk isn't goin' anywhere. We promised ta help the folks in Pascorel against a threat that is at their door, right now. We already left ta chase down the faceplate and Periwinkle. It would pain me ta let innocents suffer while we chase knowledge for our benefit. Just my thoughts." Koram takes out the candy jar and sets it on the deck for anyone that wants some.
Kismet takes a piece of candy and pops it in her mouth. "Well, I’m with whatever y’all decide, although I think we should give more weight to Easeis’ needs. I have to admit to wanting to earn his trust."
<sighs> "Although I have no idea why."
"Because I'm delightful." Easeis says as dry and deadpan as possible.
Eilo fills her arms with candy and lopsidedly flies to the stern.
Eilo flies back, eyes glazed over and face caked in sugar. “Your words about innocents suffering moved me, Koram. The sooner we save them, the better.” Eilo makes a basket with her skirts and fills it with candy before waddling away.
Koram - "Gonna need ta refill the candy jar..."
Kismet - "Hey Eilo! Save some for the rest of us!" <Smiles at the sight of the tiny faerie trying to carry Koram’s candy>
Eilo takes two of the candies out of her mouth and drops them back in the candy jar. “Mrphhrm!”
