Between 2 campaigns, and years of storytelling, this is THE best! I've never had goosebumps for such a long time. The scene with Hesper was so incredible, I'm at loss for words. Had a manly tear slowly rolling down my cheek, but his last words had me full on bawling. Thank you mr. Hulmes. Thank from the bottom of my heart.
I feel so bad for Tom x'D Everyone gets to meet the god his character has been dedicated to this entire campaign before he does, then they all get to go to essentially the Asgard of this world where his god and the others live without him... And then THAT happened... I can't even I'm gonna cast produce tears ;w;

2:54:10 - Plot twist: Smeek has actually been there all along, the party has just gotten so good at ignoring him that they don't even notice him anymore.
Marc's descriptions this game were so on point. I think he almost made himself and Kim cry. Edit: Okay he actually did make Kim cry. Edit edit: Okay he made himself cry as well ;(
What an insanely amazing episode following a string of amazing episodes. Mark's group challenges are always BRILLIANT resulting in memorable character moments. The ad at the beginning is the extra cherry on top and the players' commitment to not metgaming is awesome. Hadar empowered Zarkira is terrifying. I hope the crew save Rana (no idea how her name is written) and she becomes an ally.
I def believe they will n I'm praying (to hespar/Hespa?) They will kill that damn mind flayer!!! It's a must! Sentry need to just flame beam the shit out of him! Pew pew, bruh, pew fuckin pew!
Spoilers This is the first Deathstar scenes all over: a mentor died, a princess (Quill is fabulous) is being tortured by the evil empire, a group of brave idiots infiltrate an energy field prison. I really hope they find their way to the trash compactor and avoid the whole destruction of Alderaan part.
Mark! you are a storytelling savant. I love that you tell it so vividly that you catch yourself up in the story. I can't tell you how many times you and the high rollers have made me cry and laugh
Trott how many times have we talked about not making the sponserships better than the full episode? You know what? I'm not even mad anymore, just impressed
I won't say too much because the episode haven't "finished" yet for people who are watching it on UA-cam, but this one is a doozy. Really really cool. :) Also, the Nordverse grows... ;) That ad was really cool and funny.
Old lady offers hand: Aila "no touchie'. Demi God/titan offers hand: Aila 'ohkay'. No one could refuse hesper! Although it would have been funny if Aila would have again said: 'no touchie'
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how amazing marks story telling, scene descriptions and acting is. Him becoming H’espa was Oscar worthy! To put the Cherry on top the rest of the party adding in with their characters actions with Marks narrations made for one of the greatest scenes in this campaign so far.
Uffff ... the plot repercussions of this episode are subtle, but the longer you think about them, they are really something else. Edit: Also (spoilers for this episode): I just read here www.dndbeyond.com/characters/3608343 in the description of Nova's new book : "The pages are filled with encyclopedic knowledge of creatures, places, and legends from numerous worlds. Collected as the thoughts of a single individual. A. Plumbus." H'esper, with his dying breath, made a joke. Have to love the guy.
I really hope we get some of Aila's backstory now that we're exploring more of the Empire. Everyone else has really important character moments accept her
Mark giveth to Quill then taketh away again...., Mark getting rid of his frustration by torturing Quil/Tom.........To top it off the gang meets Esper while Tom is on another plane....lol
Oh no, I see an error in Sentry's max hp where the last episode we see her roll a 7 from Roll 20 but she didn't add her CON mod or her extra 2hp from tough feat every time she LVL up, her max hp says 161 when it was supposed to be 166 since her last max hp before LVL up was 154.
SPOILERS Literally got tears of emotion during the Hesper scene. Imma miss that lad. Feels bad man for Quill but imagine having a god sacrifice themselves for you. I really want to see what happens when Zarkira gets wind of Callus failing no matter what he does especially since the eye might not even be correct...
Seeing the big Z get wind of Callus' failure is gonna be cool but the missed a great opportunity. Callus promised them a year and Xarkira attacked that day. There is no way he approved that so call him out on it like he did order it and see how he reacts.
2:02:00 creative idea. Unfortunately that's not how it works. Water is H²0, so yes it does contain oxygen. But it requires electrolysis or some other chemical proces to get the oxygen free from the hydrogen. Without that chemical proces, yes they'd be inside a dome of water ice, and if that dome got warm enough, yes it would fill with water vapour. But there'd be no free oxygen to breathe even with the ice there, since all the oxygen would still be locked in the water molecules. We humans can't breathe water or water vapour... Plus freeing up the oxygen from the hydrogen would also create free hydrogen gas, which is highly combustible with even a minor spark and oxygen around, reverting it back to water... But hey, magic right? :)
ok i need to know who edits the vods and names the segments of this episode so i can personally thank them for calling the first one trott’s dying pc 💀
*why must you do this to us mark* (spoilers) poor birb boi, and tbh, i wouldn’t blame him for thinking he’s being manipulated.. *how tf is he supposed to know that his god literally reigned hell upon the news and immediately sacrificed himself so his friends could save him*
Spoiler comment ............ Is she about to do a complete 180 and swap sides ? When the mind flare said that sentance about her alliances I literally sat here shouting "DO IT ZARKIRA DO IT , PLEASE SWAP OMG "
An animated series of Aerois would be awesome. On a kind of funny note, I do work for a TV station...but it's a small town news station, so I'm not much help. No animation, just local feel good stories and barn fires.
Okay so crank that flywheel made me instantly think of all of the crank dat songs from back in the day I think a couple of y'all might be too young to remember them however maybe not not really sure about your ages I know most of y'all are somewhat close to my age.
i'm so glad my character isn't in quills position, he would have started self cannibalism himself if he doesn't get flesh withing certain times a day. would absolutely love it if smeek saved quill, like he just turned up while zarkeria was about to experiment on quill and just starts dancing distracting her just long enough for quill to pull a wormtail and smirk at her before puff teleporting away. it especially would be icying on the cake since Tom absolutely hated smeek. Nova should have disguised herself as a mindflayer since i seriously doubt any of zarkeria guards would mess with them.
I know you planned this because you planned Nova to be out of reach of quill and all this would have to happen but 😭😭😭 my heart hurts to bad. I'm trying to catch up and 😭😭😭😭
Two more Wolf pack crew lost. After mourning, that puts the crew down by 3. There were 3 random airship crew members that were rescued. Right? Just saying... New recruits?
Just finished watching the most current nights of evening star episode. Let's see how this episode of this awesome campaign goes. Off to a song start with a silly intro.
Is it just me or is anybody else having a hard time dealing with the fact mark has broken the biggest reason the cradle even exsits with a spider and no seems care or am i missing somthing? I god sacrificed her self to protect the planet from invation including planar magic for hundereds of years this shouldnt be able to happen

That might've been one of the best NordVPN ads yet.

THE BEST. So much power & potential in RPGs - if folks give it a shot and try to go deep, amazing things can happen.
Imagine getting a leg cramp while while being gravity pinned to the floor. Now that's what i call torture .
Me every Aerois episode: "This is the best episode!" Mark Humes, you are a true master storyteller!
Oh man, that Hesper scene?!!!! If Mark keeps being this good I'm gonna go feral!
This is by faaaar the best episode I've seen. The part with Hesper made me cry so freaking much. God.
What an insanely amazing episode following a string of amazing episodes. Mark's group challenges are always BRILLIANT resulting in memorable character moments.

Can't wait to see if snakey gurls storm troopers are as bad a shot as star wars troopers!! We can hope!
It is now canonical that *the god of knowlege* calls him quillek and not qillek
I thinl that's the equivalent of calling someone Bob when their name ks Robert. It's just a kinda different version of their used for familiarity
Quill is a nickname. Quillek is just getting it wrong
Dispite all my rage, I'm still just a bird in a cage
Tom pouting during the thing with H'esper (the beginning) is so cute xD
Mark! you are a storytelling savant. I love that you tell it so vividly that you catch yourself up in the story. I can't tell you how many times you and the high rollers have made me cry and laugh
You have come so far from episode 8 and the cow incident, but that's how I found you all
@FenrisValda for a cartoon that not only brought me but my kids into dnd
Trott how many times have we talked about not making the sponserships better than the full episode? You know what? I'm not even mad anymore, just impressed
I want the next one-shot to be in the Nord-o-verse!
Normally I agree but this episode went above and beyond!
The double intro is gold.
"Anddddddddddddd now we live here , this is our house now , thanks Hesper " , this is 100% how I expected them to react to where they are
Lucius’s character growth is pretty amazing i mean in the beginning he was a total idiot now he’s basically the leader of the group
I won't say too much because the episode haven't "finished" yet for people who are watching it on UA-cam, but this one is a doozy. Really really cool. :)
Also, the Nordverse grows... ;)
That ad was really cool and funny.
WOOOOOOOWWWWWW!!!!!!! That was some of the best storytelling I have ever heard. Bravo Mark and all of the High Rollers
Tom's face at 1:14:10 when his god mispronounces his name xD
I want this episode to be called 'Birdie's Big Break'
Marc crying
Kim crying
Me sobbing
Marc YOU ABSOLUTE GENIUS AHHHHHH ITS 1:40AM AND IM BALLING MYV EYES OUT
What a good twist! Hesper! What an epic scene. 109 episodes and they finally figured out how to get Sentry stealthy! Awesome.
Old lady offers hand: Aila "no touchie'. Demi God/titan offers hand: Aila 'ohkay'. No one could refuse hesper! Although it would have been funny if Aila would have again said: 'no touchie'
Nova just joined the Secret Base Club!
They really need those T-shirts 😂

Quill:
*Hears Duergar muttering about fuckin' Xarkirans* 🤔
🧠 "I can give you the knowledge you seek, powerful knowledge, SECRETS... release me."
Uffff ... the plot repercussions of this episode are subtle, but the longer you think about them, they are really something else.

Not much gets me crying but Mark u got me with Hesper. DAYM
I really hope we get some of Aila's backstory now that we're exploring more of the Empire. Everyone else has really important character moments accept her
Yes! Ever since that Hadar dream and Aegis V ive been so excited for what Mark has instore for her.
She did meet Thor, which was a huge moment
what an absolutely INSANE episode. Loved every second of it. What a great DM and group of players.
Mark giveth to Quill then taketh away again...., Mark getting rid of his frustration by torturing Quil/Tom.........To top it off the gang meets Esper while Tom is on another plane....lol

Good catch!
Some D&D campaigns have whole shopping sessions. Others lose the concept of money entirely.
what a fantastic episode. Here's to tidying up those loose ends on board. Anyone want squid skewers for dinner?
i could go for one rn 🦑🍢
chills... and tears
What the actual hell was that Nord VPN ad. That's amazing
A plane shift book that you can set to multiple locations as the last gift of a dying God. H'esper has bestowed fast travel but galaxy wide
They haven't discussed it but I'm wondering how large of a thing that book can teleport. Be nice to teleport the Vivex there 😁
NM, read the spell. 😂
Titans need Nord VPN to protect against Nova high jacking their signals
I love that Mark incorporated bleep buttons.
2:26:00 why am i vaguely feeling like this voice is about to say Mister Freeman

Spoiler tag please
@@usbgamers123 Extremely sorry. I added it in.
@@cheat200 Haha, no problem. I already watched it, just, for someone who didn't watch
Seeing the big Z get wind of Callus' failure is gonna be cool but the missed a great opportunity. Callus promised them a year and Xarkira attacked that day. There is no way he approved that so call him out on it like he did order it and see how he reacts.

1:33:30 hesper 😢
OMFG! way to make me cry just before I head into work! So epic
It just gets better. The scene in the temple was superbly done. And Quill's interrogation: perfectly RPd.
This is the best and most emotional episode yet!
ok i need to know who edits the vods and names the segments of this episode so i can personally thank them for calling the first one trott’s dying pc 💀
What an incredible episode. UA-cam friendos are in for it today
This is an epic episode everyone! Thank you all!
Godsdammit, Mark. Im absolutely SOBBING and it isnt even officially break yet.
Somebody really had to turn this series into an animated series. Like I'd love that so much💜💜💜
Man, this episode got me good. Fantastic, amazing, incredible *insert Lady Gaga meme here*
Man Mark knows how to set a scene
This episode made me cry sooooooo much!
Quill. Buddy. You are personal friends with the emperor's daughter. COMMUNICATE WITH HER AND GET YOUR ASS OFF OF ZARCHIRA'S SHIP
2:00:00 tom, ffs, the dm is throwing a cookie AT YOUR FACE smh XD
Oh fuck.... I'm actually sobbing... It's 2am and I'm sobbing in bed 😭
17:02 this is to the point i may have to look up the summary for this part, it's making me panic too much
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST YOU ALL ARE GIVING ME CHILLS!
Outstanding work!
*why must you do this to us mark*
(spoilers)
poor birb boi, and tbh, i wouldn’t blame him for thinking he’s being manipulated..
*how tf is he supposed to know that his god literally reigned hell upon the news and immediately sacrificed himself so his friends could save him*
But just how "Hespa" (hespar??) Was that?! Of course he did it! Our birby boi is super important!
Halls of infinite resplendence sounds like Borges' library of babel
given that callus and siaska were once an item. does that mean he is technically, at the very least, step dad of the titans? XD
Hahaha Toms face when his "god" mispronounces his name!! 1:14:12
Wow what an amazing episode !!!!
Love the use of cardinal directions in space.
I'm about halfway into the episode right now and damn, I hope there's a garbage compactor somewhere on this ship...
I was so unprepared for this episode. Holy. Fuck.
So could we say it’s the Wayfinder’s Guide to the Galaxy ?
Ngl Trott is really giving Riegel a run for his money with these sponsorships
No fuckin lie!! Lol n don't get my wrong I adore critical role and Matt HOWEVER I'm an even bigger fan of Mark and my beautiful amazing high rollers!!
Spoiler comment ............
Is she about to do a complete 180 and swap sides ? When the mind flare said that sentance about her alliances I literally sat here shouting "DO IT ZARKIRA DO IT , PLEASE SWAP OMG "
Probably not going to happen any time soon
I wonder what cases they use for the iPads
You mangad to crack me up in the first few seconds. How do you do it
Mark = genius
An animated series of Aerois would be awesome. On a kind of funny note, I do work for a TV station...but it's a small town news station, so I'm not much help. No animation, just local feel good stories and barn fires.
Warning: spoilers ahead
Damn H'esper was really like "NOBODY TAKES THE BABY BIRB!!"
Who here is part of the mark makes you cry everytime club
crying oh my god, this ones a doozy people
Okay so crank that flywheel made me instantly think of all of the crank dat songs from back in the day I think a couple of y'all might be too young to remember them however maybe not not really sure about your ages I know most of y'all are somewhat close to my age.
I watched the nord VPN Ad twice, It's great
Unbelievable story.
i'm so glad my character isn't in quills position, he would have started self cannibalism himself if he doesn't get flesh withing certain times a day.
would absolutely love it if smeek saved quill, like he just turned up while zarkeria was about to experiment on quill and just starts dancing distracting her just long enough for quill to pull a wormtail and smirk at her before puff teleporting away. it especially would be icying on the cake since Tom absolutely hated smeek.
Nova should have disguised herself as a mindflayer since i seriously doubt any of zarkeria guards would mess with them.
43:00 Mark rolls a d100 for a 25% chance. Mark has forgotten what a d4 does.
Holy shit, is kalas being brookstoned?
This episode, too good
Why is the spotify episode fucked
SO FUCKING COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!
A. Plumbus... a Legend.
Please I have to know what the stats on the wayfinders guide is and I can find it nowhere!!
www.dndbeyond.com/characters/3608343 you can find it description and and stats in Nova's inventory or in Quil's inventory on dnd beyond
I know you planned this because you planned Nova to be out of reach of quill and all this would have to happen but 😭😭😭 my heart hurts to bad. I'm trying to catch up and 😭😭😭😭
