Gentle reminder
That Nott the Brave did the same thing that she did to save her husband and child when she distracted the snake and lizard people back on Urukhazel.

Shitty episode 49 notes
so this time its mostly dialogue. I’m not a fast typer so i definitely missed stuff and my spelling is atrocious, but I did use the break and until the live stream ended to fill in the gaps I could. This is pre and post break notes. Obvious major spoilers, lots of weird details i wrote down that matt said b/c we never know when something is gonna be important or come back/ be relevant.
Also I love Beau with all my heart.
Have fun ya nerds :) 
Episode 49 Notes:
Chair has replaced uktatoa for echoes
Matts wording in the summary are so careful
Short brown hair, green and black robes necklace with circular gems lots of rings, middle aged/ young for an elf
Nott knows a place--- river bank spot
They were noted by the locals
Pretty river with shaded trees
Beau checks to see if followed 21 perception, people aren’t keeping watch but the righteous brand are gathering at the southern fields where the operatives were coming from
“What the fuck”-Jester
thanks Laura for voicing not only Jester but the entire fan base
Nott doesn’t want to leave “you can leave but i need to stay” ouch that hurt
Nott doesn’t expect them to stay
“We are a target”- Cad
“Your son????” -Jester “is it your son or are you even a goblin??”
Nott “[we don’t need to pretend we don’t keep secrets]”
Nott feels chained and not able to move forward, is ok with being open and honest so ‘we can move ahead’
Rephrase from episode one broke my heart
Nott: “Well hi, my name is Nott the brave and I’m a little goblin girl. But, once upon a time i was Veth, a young halfling woman and before that, a halfling child who grew, um, up being told that she was pretty and not brave and not coordinated and not smart and just not..
Jester line
Nott: Yea, I was. And then, ya know, time went by and i got older, i was made fun of quite a bit. I had this um, Ppl thought i was strange, b/c i collected things, i collected lots of things, they were outstanding. They were wax seals,and pieces of colored paper, and some buttons and fabric,
Beau line
Nott: All kinds
Beau line
Nott: Well they didn't think so, i had brothers and people in town who would just ridicule me
Jester: that was here
Nott: Yes, and one day i um  i was playing a game with the other boys and they dared one of their friends to give me a kiss, and the boy was very nice and he actually seemed to like it and he and i became friendly and eventually did what people do and got married and he didn't mind my strangeness and i helped him get his apothecary up and running and he was a brilliant chemist and could make acids and potions and oils and bleaches for fabric for all sorts of things and he helped me. Eventually we had a baby named luke and he was a bright boy, very smart, he learned to talk very early and walk very early. Such a smart boy and that's who you saw back there is my son.
Jester: so was he right, did you die?
Nott: I think so, I think so, uh. We had a rough winter in felderwind, there were not a lot of crops and i think some of the animals had died that winter. This river i brought you to this sort of, it's a beautiful place i used to come here with yeza and it's an important place i used to come here with yeza… the goblins would come from over there, they would raid from over there [points]... They came into town and raided more and more, they took us. They took me and my husband and my child, they held us in one of their camps. I don’t know if it was days or weeks or months. Luke, he wasn’t doing well….. We ran, we ran in the dead of night, they were fast, i've been chased a lot… i told them to run… the goblins followed me and when they found me i fought, i had a vial of acid and i threw it in the face of the one trying to catch us, they took me back to the camp. I think he died from his wounds…[I think he was a type of leader] i think he had a wife. This goblin told the woman ‘make her suffer’ and they did. They brought me to this river and they drowned me in it. I can still feel the water in my lungs and in my ears and in my nose. And then nothing. Until i woke up and saw the hands.. The skin and i looked in a puddle and i could see what they made me. They made me into everything i thought i was. Not pretty, not good, just not. I'll be honest, i've started forgetting what it was like to be halfling. Just everyday just more and more goblin…. I'm sorry i didn’t tell u and im sorry i lied and i'm sorry caleb i didnt tell u. You would have understood and you could have helped me, i dunno. I feel like you're almost there like you're almost strong enough…. Anyways that's how i got to you, and that's why i got to you and why i can't be in this town. Well i only recently started signing the letters. I don't know what he would think of me. {Missed a lot here}
{nott was in the goblin clan kinda as a slave} I would clean out the messes and clean after the meals. The one [goblin] who tortured, i would help him, maybe six months. So maybe a year, no more than a year, a year and a half? I don't know exactly.
Cad can sober up Nott and Nott lets him via lesser restoration b/c alcohol is a toxin
First time we’ve seen sober nott in a while
They’re in the valley [la joke?]
The Goldfield Tavern and Lodge
Beau to Caleb: You puked all over that apothecary so something is definitely not right
Liam is so good
They headed south towards the woods for the chat
Fjord very pointedly asks if nott is ok leaving his son. He asks twice.
Caleb won’t talk in town
Edith is staying for now and nott gave her 200 gold.
No one in town knows that Veth is alive
‘I forgot what he looked like. He forgot what i looked like.”-Nott about Luke’ we need to know the ones we love.”
Beau: Nott you drowned, and you just spent three months underwater, that's incredible. I don't know if you realized that. Its incredible.
Fjord thinks Edith and Luke should leave town. Jester offers to send them to her mum. Possibly going just more west without crossing the border.
Letter to Bryce to get them somewhere safe and closer to border in case of speedy exit of the empire.
Nott  admimatly wants to find Yeza
Jester via sending: “Hello, its jester. Two people incoming, a woman and child, take care of them please. Were sending money with them, it is important. Please help.”
Byrce, not really surprised: “Um alright. Ill do my best. Please don't send too many more.”
Liam trying to stay in character and not laughing at jokes during Bryce chat
Most of the righteous brand have gathered and are heading north east, leaving felderwind. People are trying to pick up and move on
Chat in wagon in back, hidden, Cad. 60 yd radius of warning if someone is gonna pass them
Beau to jester b/c they’re telling the truth now: “I didn’t sleep with dyren. She wasn’t my roommate. She was my teacher.” and she taught beau “how to kick as and take names bitch”
Jester trying to be helpful and fjord trying to be supportive
Caleb: “Your name is Veth?” “it was.”My name was Bren Aldrich Emendroot. Was. and um… I uh, i uh
Tumblr media
Look at Laura
Jester: “Did you die too?”
Nott: “twinnies?”
Caleb: “I have been using you all.”
Jester, confused: How?
Caleb:I am from Rexingtrum. I attended Soltrace Academy. I was plucked by one of the cerborous assembly and was being trained to do the things that i fear were being done to [Yeza]. A lot a big plans for me that didn’t plan out- I went a little crazy and ran away, ran away. I have been on the run for long time. I was tired of starving. And I met you. I was a little less hungry for a while. I have been afraid for a long time, two of the people in that town are from the cerberus assembly. I don't think [the assembly members would recognise him] I walked passed that portrait many times. One of them is the head of the cerberus assembly. There's good teachers, it's everything they describe it to be. After going there for several months, one of the assembly  who also would teach on occasion, started interviewing me. Calling me in and asking me questions. He sorta put me in an advanced class, me and a few others. I don't want you all to be seen with me by one of them, they will use you to get to me. You met the man who trained me. His name is Trent Ikathon.
Jester: thats why you make that face all the time
Caleb: I’m not a very good person.
Jester: “I dont think out actions don’t define us all them time. Good people do bad things sometimes bad people do good things. I think you’re a good person”
Beau: “do you care about us? You’ve told us several times you’re not a very good person.”
Caleb: im worried about your husband.  I know the things that man can do.[unravels arm wrappings to show a series of small cuts going up the entirety of the right arm] He used to put crystals in… he he experimented on the three of us.
NottL what would they do? The crystals
He uhh was trying to strength us. The first time i ever saw that word was in your libraries, no explanation.
Beau: The dunamous?
Caleb: No, the first time i’ve ever seen that word was in your libraries. Haphazardly scrolled into that word. No, no everything was for the empire. We were being trained to serve the empire above all. He was mad himself, he was mad. He believed that the unwashed masses relied on their base instinct and the highest calling was to rise above the muck and control the cattlel. We were, are at war. Many of us, felt that way, feel that way.
Nott: Do you still that way?
Caleb: I don’t believe in anything, now.
Fjord: This Trent, does he know these two we saw?
Caleb: Oh yes, yes, yes. And I don’t want one more thing on my head to have you guys. Probably too late anyways.
Fjord: How powerful are these two anyways? Our normal tricks, would they fall short?
The Cerberus assembly are the most powerful mages in the empire…over 200 yrs ago a # of mages went to war in the streets of Restrum and um, it was bloody and awful and eventually came to a truce … proposed to the king at the time that they serve as an advising body to the throne.
Jester: Would they see if we were disguised? Or would they have to look for us.
Caleb: I don’t know for sure but there is a reason i didn't use something like that back there.
Fjord: So, we need to give the a very wide birth.
Nott: [why would they take yeza]
Caleb: I don’t know. It is something to do with the thing. But i don’t know why him.
[Jester reading the burned notes and meaningless stuff mostly they won’t kill Yeza]
Caleb: Was he gifted in his work? What is written about here but it does not seem like anything i ever learned about that.
[?]: It says there that they are looking for a way to achieve their ends w/o the object.  I don’t know what they need.
Beau: trent ikathon was looking at yasha....
Calev: I hope he is alive i really do but they will make his life a living hell. And the empire. They are as close to as powerful if not as powerful as the king. I used a lot of names. Caleb is just what i told you. I don’t know. Caleb, let's stick with caleb for now. Um i honestly don’t know if we can, if we are up to this. Unless they are on land, this is the might of the empire. Vestduragna is the arch mage of antiquities.. She's a historian, she has uncovered mysteries of the past. She's a history buff, she's awful probably. He is the head of the military, so if they are both here i would say he is here over seeing the military and she is overseeing what is in that bag.
Fjord makes a valid point about this might not being the only one. [dodecha]
Beacons is plural
Fjord is being cautious for once
[Caleb looks like he wants to cry about the ‘liking us’ comment]
Caleb: I uhh, ohhh jester, i'm glad you see good in me.
Beau: “Its too late now b/c we like you and are invested in your happiness and [stuff]”
Caleb: ok
Beau: dont run. You can say you don't believe in us, that's fine. Believe in us just a little bit, ok?
Caleb: I will consider it heavily.
Beau: I’m sorry for not hearing you yesterday… i heard that you were doubting me and us and our friendship
Caleb:‘i dont doubt any of you
Fjord ‘I swallow shit and make it appear in my weapons i'm down to throw down. You don't have to minimize my stuff’
Those elves two were founders of the Cerberus Assembly
Stabby stab
Fjord: You seduce one i'll seduce the other. I have a way with elves [nervous/embarassed laughter]
Its like you two have been reading tumblr - tal
Caduceus is a wild mom?- confused Beau
Shit shit shit that stuff was out of the bag and scry-able for so long
Samone is the innkeeper
‘Ruckus is a word’
War with the dominion ???
Travis being charismatic and info snatchy is such a difference from grog
‘Felderwind is not known for its excitement’ with jazz hands from matt
“I need something complicated to focus myself… preferably some sort of flower or living plant. The notion is that i'm looking for something that is a testament to the wildmother.”
Jester: “Honey!”
Cad: I’m not entirely sure what honey is made of
Beau: essence of flower and bee puke
Demi leric (female human) does not charge but accepts donation, general physician
Cricks left w/in an hour “a swift nightmare”. “Dark elf folk” “second one on the left that's burned down”
Demi leric’s house is across the street from a burned building, door partially open. Simple establishment, herb smells, chemical smells, ⅘ cots with 2 recovering crownsguard chillin. Human woman, late 20s/ early 30s, bright smile & eyes, business in the eyes,
Beau used real name    
“Taking statements”
A few strange complaints about 1/ 2 months back. Wave of nausea. All lived in a cluster, near the doctor’s office near a burned building
Attack around midnight
Detective beau?
Semi conscious guard, has burns, beau slaps a wound, ‘sup, names beau with the cobalt soul, what's your name?’ “Jeff” “good to meet you Jeff” jeff got Luke out of the flames “cricks got him and ran… life four of them.. I saw the fire they pushed me into when i tried to stop them… it was crazy, they came in quick.. I guess [they were targeting places].. Last place they lit was the apothecary…
TAL WANTS TO FIND THE CHAIR MAKER
Jester: What is the possibility that your mean people can change memories?
Caleb: Pretty good…
Tunnels--> North East side where the fields begin. Crownsguard near three sinkhole like entrances.
They didn’t dig them, something dug it for them. Something with big teeth dug it for them and they came out. This creature was 10 feet wide mouth. They collapse the tunnels when they left. They dug in the third one tunnel a bit. Each tunnel is 200-300 feet apart. The tunnel that was dug out was in the middle. Tunnel at a steep angle w/ rope hanging down. This tunnel kept gong 50ft before evening out at a steady downward incline. Looks organically carved tunnel rather than arcane. Definitely burrowed. Nothing on detect magic or undead.
‘Anything is possible in this world of magic and mystery’
Cad base chant to see if he can get vibration via thaumaturgy. Can very vaguely hear a gap at some point w/ very little detail.
Break
Gank
Rexintrum is the largest city in the empire
Worms
Fjord makes a valid point about the slowy thing being a great battle tactic
Fjord has limits on what he will poke/big red button comment
“The dragon poke sucked”
“Im here b/c i was out of options and i went looking for them.” - Cad
my detail oriented self is loving getting actual info from Cad
The magic that held the forest in place is fading away. Not the only site like cads but there hasn’t been communication
Cad family, bigggggggg, built the temple, they all left to look for answers, none came back, doesn’t know what direction they went in, didn’t ask wildmother about them and doesn’t really wanna know “have faith and not second guess”, Corin talked about trying to find some of the other temples. CORIN? ---> sister?
Jester “this is some serious shit… the empire is really fucked up. And everyone went through some horrible stuff
Nott: i promise if you stay with us you’ll also go through some horrible stuff
Jester:[too late already have].. I want nice again one day
Cad: I just want home back, I wanna know that its safe again
Nott: I want to be me again yes. Yes and i hope someday it can happen.
{what does Nott want to be called?}
“Or Vott”-Jester in response to Fjord prompting Nott v. Veth
Beau: Nott and Caleb it is. The mighty nein made of seven people. Works great.
Caleb “not the name not the group. I’m not it” {Not sure if i got the last part spot on the stream cut out before I rewatched/checked this}
“Their names are Chair, together they are chair.”
“I’m here to bring the awkward”- Tal
“What it Yeza’s destination pushing a few days forward?”- Cad w/ Divination to the Wildmother “Gordranas” via wind whispers
Yasha has heard the name, its far further north and the tribe avoided it b/c a lot of the beast folk lived that way ie others who wandered the wastes ‘men who are like bull warrior/bugbears/ other goblinoids’ some work with the crin.
The Luxum- something Caleb read about it having a negative effect on Gordraonas
Gordronas is important to the history of age of arcanum. When the gods walked the earth, both the prime deities and the betrayer gods there were areas of influence considered theirs. A # of those areas belonging to the betrayer gods happened to be in wildmount and Gordranas was the name of the center of their ‘tenuous union’ [betrayer gods] in the final years of the Clamity the b. Gods would go there to plot evil shit.
 What remains of gordonas is where the crin has established their dynasty. People in Yasha’s tribe said it was perpetual night.
Cad on how to travel 1000 miles through a war zone“We’ve got a cart, I’m completely serious.”
One of the garrisons has been lost to the Cryn. {Ash something or rather?}
Yeza- short, even for a halfling, bushy brown hair, long sideburns, big nose, not a great chin, narrow shoulders, not a looker,
IS (not referring to Yeza in the past tense ie Nott being corrected by Jester/Fjord?Beau)
They were married five years
THEY SHOULD KNOW VETH’S ACTUAL BIRTHDAY
To Jester’s message to Yeza: No response then a very faint “Hello?  I don’t know, its very dark, I have to be quiet. Thank you”
Nott being wingwoman Jester and Fjord
Jester is the best customer service person ever
Jordan and Jamenson are escorting Luke and Edith, Jeff almost kept Beau’s staff
Beau’s bo still has a bow
“I’m here to buy some pockets” “Money belts!” and the tourist necklace thingies
Secret tunnels
Fjord and Beau tag teaming it and fucking with that one guy’s pride with a few good checks
Caleb paying for a group expense
Polymorph into a honey badger (who doesn’t care)
LEVEL EIGHT
‘This won’t be a problem when I’m a president’- Sam
“Be an elk and kill all these fucking soldiers” -Travis or Fjord?
Dire honey badger? Yessssssss. Bony 6 foot honey badger, 5-6 inch claws
‘I’m gonna bless the honey badger’- Cad <3
Travis gonna kill Gil
The other side of the collapse was like 150 feet down further from where the empire stopped digging
Tunnel wides, drops off like a cliff 30-40 foot til another drop off 10ish feet later and a river that is cutting it’s way through. Crystle (quartz) stalactites from a 15’ tall ceiling
Same system as Zadash? Connecting aquifers?
“Do not send the cleric into the pit of unknown.”- Tal
Yeza and Veth never got a honeymoon and they wanted to go to Taledorie [Whitestone is great in the spring].
666
They’re going caving I guess
If Beau changes(ed) her name them all the Empire based people would have lots of names. (Bren-> Caleb ; Veth-> Nott ; Lucian-> Molly)
Also Beau and Bren are the names parents would name their kids if they wanted to have a matching letter for all their kids but the kids hate being a matched set.
Jester having the crisis of ‘I was lonely but y’all had some shit’ was really heartbreaking to watch. I hope she doesn’t stop that progression of showing more and more genuine emotion both positively and negatively.
