The camera was momentarily transfixed, as Count Noctilus had seemingly alt-tabbed himself to follow me, abandoning his siege of Lothern to sail up the river of ash, striking deep into the still heart of Khemri. With auto-resolve in my heart, the scion of Sylvania seemingly retreated back to the youtube comment section, leaving no apparent sign of his appearance, but a Leadership bonus for sea battles, seemingly taunting me as I turned in the direction most know, as southward, to the distinctly land-based threat of Prince Imrik's aerial assault.

1:27 "Stop saying Cecil weirdly!" In all seriousness, I've got confused with a podcast before because they pronounced the name "Craig" as "Greg".

[@alexmo1280]

My god you are so very spot on with these. Tone, vocabulary, register, all of it. Keep them coming.

[@greatestoldone7658]

You never fail to make me laugh. I'm glad to see your channel growing, I've been a loyal subscriber since Every Nordic Crime Drama.

That last part with the Cecil Woods Recreational Ground(s) kind of reminded me of how Jon Sims (the writer/actor) would zoom in on Google Maps enough that people would find it eerily specific.

I died at “Stop saying Cecil weirdly” XD

The platform I’m going to refer to as KZbin has finally proven that their algorithm is far too accurate for...”my comfort”

[@marcocappelli2236]

As I finished watching the video, and having expressed my opinion of it in the comments, I quickly realized how few subscribers this youtuber had, despite his regularly-uploaded content being well-thought and highly entertaining. So I decided that I would make yet another comment, no matter how uncharacteristic of me that would be, in the hopes that it could convince other equally-minded individuals to do the same, and to feed the algorithm. Sure, there was no guarantee that it could have much of an impact, though it would be, however, the only way for me to begin repaying my enjoyment.

This is exactly every single one! Like the black tapes, rabbits, Tanis etc.

[@kardwise9714]

Lol love this so much. Brings me back to the Magnus archives.

[@CecilXIX]

I'm glad you know how to pronounce Cecil correctly.

[@margaretthemagnificent]

Brilliant! I couldn't laugh until the end because I didn't want to miss one drop of this comedy nectar. You made my 5:48am full of laughs!

"Discarded Casper mattresses and bombas socks" I'm dead

[@KiddCrowley]

It's hilarious how accurate this is. Also gonna take a moment to plug Old Gods of Appalachia, one of the better horror podcasts out there :)

[@PaulSavagecomedy]

How are there this many excellent jokes in one short clip?

"He had a face that had seen many winters but the voice of a 29 year old actor"

"The ground was littered with Casper mattresses", I lost it 😂
