S3E22: The Jig Is Up




Crudely Drawn Swords - A Dungeon World Actual Play  Podcast show

Summary: Morning, Please let me know if they do encroach on the Woodmarch. My mother lives in the woods and I want to make sure she’s safe. Not that I could do much from here. But I sure as hell would try and fly back. I don't think I can make it that far, certainly not by myself. I think I said before there's a big ol curse affecting this entire land. I’ve been reading up on curses and I think I may be able to tap into it. But only on a small scale. Curses tend to be very specific in their nature. So you only need to change a small aspect of it and it’ll snap back in a different direction. But I need to find an opening, maybe the origin of the curse, maybe a fundamental item or place to it. If I could find a way of amplifying it I might be able to do something on a bigger scale and have more of an effect. Magic’s got a flow to it. If I set off a ripple in the middle I might be able to cause a chain reaction. If I could then get all the power which was suddenly tearing itself out of the land and make it reverb back into one place I could do something huge. Or destroy something with it. I cant send the energy far enough away to hurt the army but maybe I could send it into something that might hurt the army. I don't know if destroying the sword will be a good thing, or even if I can get this plan to work. But at least it's a plan. All we seem to be doing is running away and the others haven't even mentioned the war recently. I’m sure they’re thinking about it but maybe they don't want to talk out loud incase it makes them realise how little we are helping. I dont think I’m going to tell Percy about my plan to destroy the sword. I think he may try and talk me out of it. We don't know what will happen. But I’d rather take a chance and do something then not do anything in fear of making it worse. Bam
