Is breeze really a threat? He sounded more like he was trying to help them but didn’t have the “right way”. That’s the kinda villain they may be able to turn around.
Not a dry eye in the house tonight... but when the DM gathers all of the party's most beloved NPCs and backstory elements in one place, the paranoid player in me starts to get THE FEAR.
Yeah, having all this family and friends come together feels like Mark is setting it up so the stakes are very high for the players when the time comes
Rewatching Aerois in between the Altheya episodes and I love this episode so much. One of my favorites. Horizon is such a cool city and I love Danika she's such a badass. And yes I am once again emotional after Sentry's and Petals reunion.
Minor Spoilers Okay they reconnected with Arvil and got the Wyvern Armour which is useful, campaign done, they won. Now they only have the "Rescue Vala" dlc quest left
Sentry PROTECC, she can ATTACC, (ending spoiler) but most importantly she has her Petal BACC I now demand a Rosemeadow tote bag merch. I could imagine if Rosemeadow is ever recruited into the Stormchaser as an assistant doctor, she would definitely try to pet all the Wolf Pack members or at least admire how cute they are. I fear much from the meeting that there may be a spy there that will report what has been discussed in the meeting specifically the teleportation circle to the Tasadar which means they will be prepared for an upcoming attack. Quill asking the eye a question during the meeting: Are there any Imposters Among Us? Lucius *Bows* Stewardess Danika: Hey! We, uh, we don't do that here. Aye, an unintended Black Panther reference.

This episode absolutely destroyed me, the amount of emotion from those 3 interactions, first being pure joy and those other two i cant even put to words how i felt. Well done guys holy shit. 👏👏👏👏
Tom might be angry about his question, but i think it is good to know that there won't be any large scaled attack. Arvil, Petal, Rose are all safe, for example.
I am not a very emotional person. I have only cried at one scene in a show before in all the years I have been on this planet. Today I gained a second.
I need to stop listening while I'm at work. Between the end bit of this episode and Lucius nearly dying, my coworkers are worried about me and my crying in the middle of the day 😅
The Aerois campaign never ceases to blow me away. I can so vividly picture the city of Horizon as this beautiful, colorful melting pot of culture, and it feels like the perfect setting for some heartfelt reunions that the party have been looking forward to for a long time. And Danika is shaping up to be one of my favorite NPCs that the party have come across so far. Hats off to you once again, Mark Hulmes and players!
I love how you can tell how much people enjoyed the episode just by looking at the timestamps - if the outro/donations section is really long either the players spent ages dissecting it or there were loads of donations. It's just nice to be able to tell :)
@@mme.veronica735 can’t remember who said it but one of them said dragon scale armour after. And also historically in real life the only differences between the two is that a wyvern is bipedal where as a dragon is a quadruped, their scales are the same in all forms of mythology so I would still look the same.
@@CVRDnBLOOD290 thank you, I don’t know much about DND so I assumed it was similar to mythology. But surely their scales look similar so my original point still stands? That’s a genuine question
Dude, when you said "Happy Mother's day" I was like OH SHIT and checked the googs, and realized that it was mother's day in the UK, US is in May 9th. Whew, I'm NOT a terrible son!
This was the first episode of High Rollers that made me cry for real. Other episodes have made me shed tears, like when Lucious was dying, or Quill got his wing, but this is the first time I got to the point of sobbing. Such an emotional reunion.
Funnily enough the Wyvern armor is from before Cali’s Rest, they found the hide to make it in Dwalinden, and had the smith in Rosehall make it and send it to Arvel.
Spoilers Rosemeadow: OH! I almost forgot about her! That's cool! Arvel: Oh that's awesome! It was going to happen one way or another, but still. Very good feels. Petal: *ugly sobbing in a corner*
Mark... You broke me into tears with that store twist, the fact that Petal was ALIVE all this time and the fact we now know why the one scroll was tucked away in that special scroll case ... The fact the same magic that saved petal saved Lucius!...You made me cry!
15:00 CALLED IT, many many many episodes ago when they fought rook? (Think that was name) I said that some of the royal family or descendants may still be living haha
Scary thing. I joined up with following this channel, binged this channel. I think it was 2019. I vaguely remembered this Wyvern Armor as a concept. The moment Rhiannon mentioned "Tracker and Scout" the whole thing came barreling back into my head. I recall them vividly. Here it is 2024, due to work I fell behind. So I'm binge-running this campaign (and keeping up with the current campaign.) This means the Rhi-cap of 3 years later, I have seen 3 more years later, and the Rhi-cap script is active in my neural matrix.
I listened to this first on Spotify and Seriously all I could do was smile and get giddy and then wanting to see the Crews facial reactions I thought Mark was just good at voice acting and at seeing him and Rhi actually cry I have never cried to a video or movie or podcast before these people can twist me thank you
ten minutes in and im choked up already. I'm so glad sentry asked, since they found who made thw sequester scroll I've been thinking about this too!! There's a softness when sentry speaks that just gets me man
SPOILERS FOR AFTER THE BREAK! I WAS JUST THINKING OF ROSE MEADOW AND HOW SHE WAS QUITE POSSIBLY THE MOST PRECIOUS CINNAMON ROLL CHARACTER OF THE CAMPAIGN AND NOW SHE'S BACK I ACTIVELY LET OUT A SMALL HAPPY NOISE!
I've finally caught up! , started campain 1 on january 14th and today is 22th of march, in 63 days I've watched roughly 193 episodes o-o, cant wait to watch live now!
Oh man, Nova getting salty is fucking hilarious and I love Kim for it 😂💙 Oh fuck.... Finally got to that bit.... I didn't expect to start crying but the tears they came 😭😭😭
My heart!!!!! I SO needed this reunion. I peeked in the comments and I thought this would be a terrifying episode but maybe next time. Spoilers When Mark started talking about the solwynn shop I literally said if that's petal's I'm done. I love love love that reunion with petal and sentry. It was so sweet and I had always wished that it would happen, but never thought it would. This episode was so sweet with rosemeadow, arvil, and petal. Also quill's question at the end kinda makes me feel better, but also worse. This made my day.
So the way I understand secret chest is that you cast it once and can summon the chest as an action. Otherwise that is a waste of high level spell slots. The reunion episode is adorable and great
LOVED the reunions! That last one though! it's like 7am my time (listening while working) and I literally shouted "MARK!" several times. Hopefully I didn't wake up my boyfriend in the other room XD
Man Mark is a phenomenal method actor. He really gets into his characters so well.
"Sentinel Prime do you know of any threats to you or the Guardian Race"
"No"
Me yelling at my laptop BREEZE BREEZE REMEMBER BREEZE
Omg yes!!! Thinking the same thing at that part.
Lol same here
Me too!
Is breeze really a threat? He sounded more like he was trying to help them but didn’t have the “right way”. That’s the kinda villain they may be able to turn around.
@@reedk2402 Breeze had a mentor. Also he was the bad color and ate people. What other enemy does that make you think of?
This episode absolutely BROKE me when I watched most of it live (and I still haven’t recovered) CANT wait to see what comes next ❤️
Mark is an onion cutting ninja in this one
@@o.d.d.5437 He really is 😭😭😭

That's all that was going through my mind too
I think Re is awesome but i have not had any emotional connection to sentry until petal. Some bastard cutting onions up in here
we need merch of Arval pointing with a wink and a quote "welcome to the secret base club" !!!!!!!
And Kim's shirt idea of a shirt that says, "I have a secret base" on the front and, "here it is" * arrow pointing to butt * on the back
Just "I have a secret base!" would be great!
@@pnlrogue1 no, it has to have implied butt stuff too.
@@thefracturedbutwhole5475 interesting opinion from an interesting person. me personally id rather have the arrow pointing down on the front
@mme.veronica735 all your base are belong to us! 🤨

The way she said Petal’s name, I started to break down. High rollers man, no show could ever make me feel the same way.
"You have reached a critical point in your story, ensure you are prepared for the challenges ahead for the is no turning back"

Im a grown-ass man. Almost thirty years old at this point.

Great job, yall.
Same man. Same.

With that roll, I am guessing that Hesper is hanging out with Artagan.
Am I the only one that can’t wait to see qillek meet the dragon born while wearing dragon scale armour 😂😂
Wyverns are no more dragons than baboons are people. They're beasts

Luckily I remember they are British so I don't get confused or freak out either. xD
I watched this live but I absolutely had to come back and watch all these FEELS again
I listen to the podcast but had to come here and watch the end.
Spoilers
GOD THE FEEEEEELS!!! I *almost* cried but didn't.
This was the first episode of High Rollers that made me cry for real. Other episodes have made me shed tears, like when Lucious was dying, or Quill got his wing, but this is the first time I got to the point of sobbing. Such an emotional reunion.
I know. I was crying my eyes out during Sentry and Petal's reunion
Funnily enough the Wyvern armor is from before Cali’s Rest, they found the hide to make it in Dwalinden, and had the smith in Rosehall make it and send it to Arvel.
Here we go!!! Judging from the comments and my intuition this is going to be a rollercoaster of emotion.
Well I did NOT expect that.
Spoilers
Rosemeadow: OH! I almost forgot about her! That's cool!
Arvel: Oh that's awesome! It was going to happen one way or another, but still. Very good feels.
Petal: *ugly sobbing in a corner*
Exactly. 100%. You captured it perfectly.
@@goggledgoon3342 Thx lol.
Mark knows how to make a scene.
Watch at your own peril. Many emotions in this one
I got way the wrong idea from this
Mark... You broke me into tears with that store twist, the fact that Petal was ALIVE all this time and the fact we now know why the one scroll was tucked away in that special scroll case ... The fact the same magic that saved petal saved Lucius!...You made me cry!
Such a great episode, those reunions in the second half were amazing and the last one was devastatingly good. I loved it.

Me intently screaming from anxiety before starting the ep because the top commits are visible and nearly impossible for me to miss
Had to stop and shout out marks super on point star wars quote " aggressive negotiations " the accent was perfect 👌
First rule of Secret Base Club, we talk about Secret Base Club
Tom still thinks the chest requires a spell slot for EVERY use. They might as well buy a bag of holding.
Im begging that they soon realize

Just one more space needed for that spoiler spacing. I appreciate the effort though.
@@Blasted2Oblivion oof, sorry! Fixed it :p

i cried, not afraid to say it. Chill at almost every moment, great job
Very cool, Mark! Horizon is an awesome city. I love the design. Bravo!
Excuse me, I'm just gonna go ugly cry now. 🌹
I have been watching aerois an average of 4 hours a day the last two months and finally caught up. Now I have nothing to do :(

When Petal turned around and were surprised of Sentry, my brain started screaming "WAIT, IM NOT READY!!!"
This one was phenomenal! I've been loving the story all along and this one really hit home! Well done everyone! Mark, fantastic way to orchestrate it!
Great acting by Mark........Kudos
Mark this one cut deep
Oh man, Nova getting salty is fucking hilarious and I love Kim for it 😂💙
Oh fuck.... Finally got to that bit.... I didn't expect to start crying but the tears they came 😭😭😭
I cackled way too hard when he talked about his relationship with hesper
'brick stone walls'
Me: brookestone walls! Watch out!
The second part of this episode was the most heartwarming out of any show or series i have ever watched. amazing job everyone.
My heart!!!!! I SO needed this reunion. I peeked in the comments and I thought this would be a terrifying episode but maybe next time.
Spoilers
When Mark started talking about the solwynn shop I literally said if that's petal's I'm done. I love love love that reunion with petal and sentry. It was so sweet and I had always wished that it would happen, but never thought it would. This episode was so sweet with rosemeadow, arvil, and petal. Also quill's question at the end kinda makes me feel better, but also worse. This made my day.
I dont know why but i never cry during the sad moments, i usually smile like a madman
Best episode in a long time, absolutely love it!
"Petal?" ~actually starts balling~. Why did this make me cry so much.
I LOVE Rosemeadow, but if I met that personality in real life I would actually implode in rage.
So many feelings in this one, I love it all. I love the story so much, and im using this as inspiration for my own Homebrewed world
Starbane may not lie, but his control of his empire is not absolute.
1:22:36- "they call me... Tim?" *bang* *boom* *whoosh* *fwoosh*
Mark, you made you cry, you are such an awesome DM!
You had to make it a tear jerker didn't you. Good thing I work mostly alone. So wonderful for Petal to return.
Kim” yeah I wonder if a space emperor is going to get involved in my day, on a somewhat regular basis”
So the way I understand secret chest is that you cast it once and can summon the chest as an action. Otherwise that is a waste of high level spell slots.
The reunion episode is adorable and great
LOVED the reunions! That last one though! it's like 7am my time (listening while working) and I literally shouted "MARK!" several times. Hopefully I didn't wake up my boyfriend in the other room XD
Best npcs of high rollers barris, girly and smeek. I am so going to use characters like that in my own own campaign
I’m not crying… someone’s cutting onions…
I loved all the NPC callbacks in this! Such a great episode.

Customary “I’ve finally caught up” comment, took me a few weeks of binging but this story is just too good!!

Was the "the bathroom is audio monitored" comment a call back to the famous Piss Trott incident???

Nothing makes me cry like a reunion
Absolute emotional rollercoaster this was perfection
I hate the feels for this episode, I know I am 3 months late but I am still catching up to the episodes
Gosh I hope nothing happens to Horizon, good lord! My boy ***** better stay safe!
