Previously on Taz Royale. I need you to prove yourself to me. I need you to win this conclave.
Yes, yes. If you're able to help. Yeah. No pressure. Yes, you're right, Bugman. And I shove him to the ground. I mean, I didn't want to risk anyone else. I was going to come in and destroy the crystal.
I can't make another bond like this with another person. This is taking everything just to appear before you right now. If you die, that's it. As such, we will not commence with the final two trials. This conclave has been terminated.
Welcome back to TAS Royale, our Battle Royale winner-take-all season of the Adventure Zone. You join us at a dark time for the Conclave as the eight remaining aspirants have just been informed by the members of the Octave, the arch-wizards that rule the realm of the Fold, that the Conclave has been cancelled. due to their many, many transgressions. And we don't need to point fingers at who did what. That is actually exactly where we are picking up. Oh, we do need to point fingers? There's going to be a lot. There's been so much finger pointing in the sort of few minutes following you getting caught, Rictus. The eight remaining aspirants are sort of standing in front of the Crystallarium where the eight members of the Octave are standing on a raised dais.
and the aged wizard Oshim is standing at the front of the assembly, and he's holding this illuminated clipboard, and for the past five minutes has just kind of been flipping through a list of infractions that each of you have racked up during your time here. He says, Helgrammet, conducting a secret clandestine meeting within the boundaries of Leomund's tiny hut. Loravith, For like two dozen minor acts of unauthorized violence. Duper sweet leaf for ripping cotton in the sunken library. Pranklin, grand larceny from the atelier. Jesus.
I do a tiny, maybe I'll have to make a stealth check, but fist bump to my dude.
He flashes you a big gummy smile, and Ocean says, And Rictus, obviously, your intrusion into the Crystallarium was the final straw, but let's not forget about the Orson.
That alleged, alleged arson.
Nothing here is alleged. Nothing escapes our sight here on the Isle of the Octaves. Where does that leave those who've already perished? It leaves them where they are. They have perished. What of their sacrifice? Their sacrifice was for naught. There is a certain shenanigans threshold under which the conclave may continue, but that threshold has been thoroughly crossed.
If I may say point of order here, I had been informed that whatever happened within Leomund's hut stayed in Leomund's and... How do you know what I was doing inside Leomund's hut?
Table talk. I need some evidence here. You're playing fast and loose. They don't know what the fuck happened in Leomund's hut. Allow me to respond.
Oshim says, yes, precisely. You created a secret dome of silence where you meant to bamboozle our site, our omniscience. I do not know what happened within Leowind's tiny heart.
Oh, that? That one was planning a birthday party for you. Yes. And so that, you're embarrassed now. We'll tell you all the details. If you want to hear them, we'll ruin it for yourself.
Yes, go on. Tell me all the details of the birthday party that you planned for me. You know you've always liked the movie Grease. Make a deception check for me, Loraveth.
Interesting. That's only five of the 20 possible points.
Huh. Of five, okay. He looks down at his clipboard. He says, even if that is true, which my, how do you know my birthday?
Oh my God, the deception hurt his feelings, didn't it? It's the worst. Even if that was a wombo combo, man, it really stings when they realize you're lying, but it's still hurtful.
Yeah, maybe he was getting super excited for the party. Oh man. Even if we were to strike that infraction, the breaking of rules that has happened here has been so flagrant and so unprecedented. We have never had an attempt to choose a new member of the Octave be so tainted like this.
Why is the Conclave suddenly canceled and who enforces the decision?
And it is the will of... So you're just going to give it to Doober?
