Under the Shadow of Death | Altheya: The Dragon Empire #27

[@kwirkxx]

I came from the one shot with the BG3 team and have played D&D in real life with friends (unfortunately not anymore), i was never good at living as a character, always stuck to one boring type and essentially played myself (ik boring arent i) I find Marks story telling absolutely incredible and I've been watching this campaign for the last 2 weeks non-stop! Once I'm caught up, i will 100% watch the previous ones! Didn't have any idea how long these go on for! The whole team is amazing, think Rowan is my fav, followed by Ophelia! Keep doing what yous do best, guys! Thank you for the incredible story!

[@joaozin156]

I've been catching up on the series after missing several episodes due to travel, and i have to say. Wow just wow. What an absolutely epic ending of the chapter. This was awesome. And very well played by everyone, pretty much everyone had really awesome moments of brilliance during the fight. And obviously amazing job from Mark for making this entire battle. it was really well done.

[@yoshimario40]

This was such a cool fight. It had me thinking they weren't going to make it until Daisy went full celestial, which was actually so so hype. Awesome job everyone!

Ignarius the deus ex tho

[@Markcrazeer]

@@kyleweir689well yes, but you cant just have the world revolve around the hetoes so they are always alone and dont have the powerfull good ruler of the city save them if they can. Taking ignarius off the board is closer to a diablos ex machina. Than ignarius helping is a deus ex machina. They did the thing. No need to prolong it just because they are the heroes.

[@mme.veronica735]

Just a notice for the people who skip past the Intro that there will not be an episode of High Rollers DnD next week, this is planned and it will return later.

[@MorinehtarTheBlue]

Thank you. Though I feel a little seen that is definitely going to help me plan for the weekend/next week. Or at the very last keep me from panicking.

[@azguarder]

“You see Morris this is what happens when you work with demons” I just love the visual of Ophelia lecturing him and the occasional flicks when he starts talking 😂

[@joranvanolphen9892]

2:51:09 omg kim, im crying. Such beautiful words 💜 I love high rollers. Couldn’t watch for a while cuz internship but im soo glad im back on track………. Saint and scions, i have a lot to catch up to 😅

[@GorillaDoseGaming]

Amazing Arc as always Mr. Sherlock Hulmes. You guys are amazing. I'm loving this new campaign so much cant wait till next episode. I hope yall enjoy the break you defiantly deserve it

[@hashslingingslasher97]

Daisy activates her ult to play the objective, instead of trying to boost her K:D ratio. Be like Daisy

[@DestroKind]

Wish they had a monk cus monks are fast AF

[@annaspringbear]

You guys, this is really special what you're building here, really wonderful characters, the stories and world unfolding... I'm loving it. And what an incredible fight!! Can't wait for it to continue.

[@Hidden_Nicko_]

Gruff made me cry as with what he said about Daisy not being blasphemous

[@nanospeed2550]

Same! It made me tear up real good, Kim ate that roleplay down.

[@ryleighgaddie3463]

Demon bro: i shall now shift to my second form! Within Twelve seconds: Ophelia *erupts into Castlevania hyperdrive* Daisy *celestial evolution* Xanthius *explodes into ash and crownsteel* Rowan *has died* Gruff *#tireddad** uppercut* my children are being weird again.....

[@danih.5675]

I know this has been said a thousand times already, but what an amazing conclusion to this ark. I would love it if you released a guide on worldbuilding and walked us through your process, because its up there with the greats like tolkien

@@stuartboswell6961 I watched it three times because I loved it so much! LOL!

Finally all caught up again only for a new episode to be uploaded yesterday. Bless you, Saints and Scions.

[@callielamity]

Yknow I thought the reading stream was quite lovely!

[@lpbigD4444]

Loving it guys great job! Daisy's transformation was awesome as was Ophelia's. I do hope the level ups slow just a smidge. D&d is so much more interesting before level 10 haha so I hope you guys milk the next few levels for awhile. Much love though

[@CeyasStuff]

What an amazing treat this arc has been - greatly look forwards to everything HR has in store

[@JustAHinchh]

Mark, you are a fantastic DM

[@Zathurious]

I find myself impatient about what happens next. But that just proves our DM is an excellent story teller. I love it.

[@timburbagereads]

Okay I'm early on here, but Katie's description of Daisy's transformation is amazing

[@Matthew.Roy.]

I am just watching the Lightfall campaign, so I didn’t even find it off when Tom mentioned Cassandra at first 😆

[@daeins]

Lovely. This arc has been so much fun

[@TheUnwillingDonor]

In my mind Benedicta looks a lot like Dame Aylin.

[@theholyabigrail]

Is anyone else sad that the gang didn't use a fate dice to summon the mysterious archer? 🏹

[@megakrab1]

[@maltanno]

Sure, this tavern's nice, but I hear a tower's just come on the market?

I imagine the intro team scream is the noise that the Demon Gun made when it fired... kind of a shame that Rowans illusion prevented it from being shot... P.S. Well done with that❤.

[@adamyoung976]

SPOILERS for this Episode and a tiny bit for a live one-shot they did: I really hope they take some time to give Emberisa a heartfelt thank you for saving their lives (at least the ones she saved). Not only is it a kind thing to do but it also helps open a dialog with her (maybe leading to the events of a certain one-shot...). As the duke said having the favor of a dragon is no small thing so the more dragons they can get to know in a more personal (non-bard) way the better. Plus it gives Mark more screen time to develop her character.

[@adamyoung976]

Spoilers Was anyone else irrationally afraid that either Obsidian or Emberisa died during that fight? I was nail-biting until their private audience and sorta still am since they didn't mention Obsidian. But one would assume if he had died it would have been mentioned by then right...? RIGHT??? Ya definitely since he said he was stopped before doing something he would regret lol

ohhh i didn't realise you dont have the donation reads at the end of the offical vod here. well i just need you to know trott that your response to the tattoo person made me laugh so fucking hard at 5:30am that i woke up my entire house, i then turned red due to lack of breathing then started coughing/choking... The seamless way it was said, you didn't even need a second to think, and the hand action, it was just... perfection in comedy. I now sadly have a headache from laughing, so i must perform a long rest.
