me.” A little voice goes like, (as Jester) “Some
"people are trying to sleep.”
ASHLEY: Sorry, Jester.
MATT: “But I’m awake now.” Fjord goes like, “Let’s
take a walk.” Fjord stands up, Jester stands up,
and the three of you step away for a minute. Fjord
looks up at the stars and goes, “Dreams’ve been
"weird. For all the visions, the darkness out
there, it’s good to know that, somehow maybe we’re
"all putting a little bit of light in there too.”
ASHLEY: That’s a very nice way to put it.
MATT: “Who knows? Maybe we’ll find ourselves a
path somewhere along the coast in the long run.
"Could show you some of my hometown. Maybe some of
yours, but maybe not quite as well put together.”
Jester interjects at this point and goes, “Well,
if we do go back, I could show you– if it is safe
"depending on what my mom says– the places where I
grew up, the beautiful shorelines. Have you been
"to the Menagerie Coast before?”
ASHLEY: “I’ve never been to the Coast.”
MATT: “Oh, it is so beautiful. It would be
incredible.”
ASHLEY: I’ve seen–
MATT: Her mouth isn’t making noise. You go to
talk. No sound comes out of it either. There’s a
look of confusion amongst the three of you. I need
you to make a wisdom saving throw, Yasha.
What did you roll?
ASHLEY: I rolled 11.
MATT: In that moment of panic, you go to reach for
your weapon, and suddenly your muscles seize up
and your body is unable to move. Your eyes glance
back at Fjord, who seems to be in the same
position. The falchion apparates in his hand, but
he is unable to move. Jester is the only one who
is like– As she turns to run for the group, and
impacts the chest of a dark humanoid figure who’s
standing there who grabs and holds her in place.
Four other dark figures emerge from the shadows
around and grab and immediately put their arms
around you. You try and resist from the spell. In
fact, make another wisdom saving throw.
SAM: Oh god.
ASHLEY: Natural 20.
SAM: Whoa!
MATT: Fjord maintains it, but all this in absolute
silence. There is no sound, just shadows and
starlight. As you’re now being grappled by two
men, the spell breaks from you. However, they’re
still holding you. As you feel a gag pulled over
your mouth from one of them, the other one begins
to throw rope around you. You’re looking over the
side and you can see another gag showed into
Fjord’s mouth. Manacles are being shoved onto his
arms and legs. He’s unable to move. Jester tries
to break free off the opposite– not with a
natural seven. She’s kicking and screaming, but
there is no sound coming out and as she’s pushed
down, another figure comes up and throws shackles
onto her arms behind her and her legs. She’s
yelling and yelling and a gag is pulled over her
