Good evening. On behalf of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, I welcome you to the 2020 National Preservation Awards. I'm Bob Vila, and I have the distinct privilege of being here with you today as we honor the people who transform, restore, and bring extraordinary vision to our communities throughout the nation. I think it's fair to say that buildings, especially homes, are my life's work. I know the power of place to transform people and communities. I've seen it through my work in broadcast television and through building homes with organizations such as the Peace Corps and Habitat for Humanities. Over the years, I've supported many causes dealing with housing and architectural preservation, and more recently, I've been involved in the restoration of Ernest Hemingway's home in Cuba. And so it's a great honor and privilege to be here today as we honor the incredible group of people and places that have made a significant impact in their communities. In one of the many ironies of 2020, we celebrate the power of place, and yet we can't be in a physical place together for this event. But inspired by the strength and resilience of today's honorees, we adapt. In fact, I'd hope to be with you in person at the historic Olympia Theater in Miami, my hometown, where the National Trust originally planned to hold this ceremony. Now, Miami is my birthplace, my hometown, in my earliest memories of going to the movies, always centered on the Olympia Theater. My parents and my sister and I would go on a Saturday evening. Back in the day, they still had floor shows before the show, but for me, it was the building itself.  The dark ceilings were the twinkling lights and surrounded by arches and columns, giving you the feeling of being in an old Spanish palace. But here we are in a beautiful old wailing church in Martha's Vineyard. I hope that today's ceremony will inspire, uplift, and encourage you to continue your preservation efforts in the places that are meaningful to you and your community. And now on to our first award of the evening. Each year, the National Trust honors an organization that has demonstrated outstanding and continued achievement in historic preservation. This year's honoree has been working for almost 50 years to save and preserve one of the great American cities. They have shown us that a small group of people can have a tremendous impact. Take a look. Against tremendous odds in a city with a newer, bigger, better attitude, one organization has worked tirelessly to change the narrative around Dallas' historic places. Using innovative programs and advocacy, Preservation Dallas has saved historic places against one's reluctant city leadership and developers eager to demolish historic buildings. Originally called the Historic Preservation League, the organization started in the 1970s with their first preservation ordinance. This early work set the stage for 48 years of sustained success, which has resulted in 20 historic districts and over 130 individual landmarks. As one of the founders of the Historic Preservation League, Virginia McAllister was a key figure in efforts to designate historic sites across Dallas. With a staff of three, a dedicated volunteer board, and the support of countless other volunteers, Preservation Dallas has created educational programs, articles, architectural style guides, and tours that have saved the landscape of Dallas. Recent accomplishments include successful advocacy for the 10th Street Historic District, one of the only remaining intact Freedmen's towns in the nation. Preservation Dallas placed the district on its endangered list in 2018, and in 2019, they joined with the National Trust to successfully stop court-ordered demolitions. Through organizing, advocacy, and working with lenders, they have fought tirelessly for historic structures that have no voice of their own. It's with great pleasure that I present Preservation Dallas and honor the legacy of Virginia Savage McAllister, which this year's Trustees Award for Organizational Excellence. Howdy y'all from Dallas, Texas. Preservation Dallas is most honored to be receiving this prestigious award. It means a great deal to us after 48 years of preservation work. It took our early founders like Virginia Savage McAllister a lot of work to convince people that historic preservation was important and that it was a community revitalization tool. Now Preservation Dallas has a seat at the table when it comes to preservation issues at the city, so we're very pleased that we've come this far and we hope to take it even further. This award really goes to the many, many people who have fought tirelessly over the years to save Dallas's historic places. Thank you to the National Trust for this most amazing award. Thank you, David, and Preservation Dallas. Each year, the National Trust recognizes success and innovation at a historic site. This year, our honoree has taken the neglected Bush-Holly House, once an epicenter for American Impressionism, and transformed it into a space of promise and possibility. In the late 19th and 20th century, the Bush-Holly House was the epicenter of Costco in Greenwich, Connecticut, the cradle of American Impressionism. We're now artists gathered here to paint and share ideas about art and society, but development and the invasion of modern roadways left the Bush-Holly House isolated and deserted. In 1957, the Greenwich Historical Society saved the building from destruction and restored it as their headquarters. Through active engagement with the community and a varied approach to financial sustainability, they have brought these structures back to life and created a larger campus by acquiring adjacent properties over time. The design protects, restores, and unifies historic buildings while providing programs that serve the community with exhibits, gardens, public programs, archives, collection storage, and extensive school programs. The site is now a member of the historic artists' homes and studios program. Visitors can explore the area's role in northern slavery, wander the Impressionistic Gardens, which inspired a generation of painters and take in exhibits about immigration, refugees, and women's suffrage. Through the restoration of buildings and programming, the Greenwich Historical Society is providing the Greenwich community with a needed connection to its rich history. Pleased to present this year's Trustees Emeritus Award for Historic Site Stewardship to the Greenwich Historical Society for their preservation of the Bush-Holly House and their commitment to community. Hi, this is Peter Balkan speaking to you from my home in Greenwich, Connecticut. On behalf of the board of the Greenwich Historical Society, of which my wife, Isabelle, is the senior member, and on behalf of David Scott Parker, the architect who redesigned the campus of the Greenwich Historical Society, I am delighted to accept this award. When the restoration was completed in October 2019, there was a very sharp increase in the number of visitors to the campus of the Greenwich Historical Society, and the people are really very, very pleasantly surprised at the beautiful campus that now surrounds the Historical Society. It's a wonderful place to visit, and we encourage everybody to come and see it for themselves. Thank you very much, National Trust for Historic Preservation, for recognizing this program. Thank you, Peter, and Greenwich Historical Society. The John H. Chaffee Trustees Award for Public Policy recognizes achievement in preservation advocacy. This year, we're recognizing a legislative victory that will save our nation's parks. More than four years ago, the National Parks Conservation Association and other partners joined efforts as part of the Restore Our Parks campaign to help tackle the nearly $12 billion deferred maintenance backlog of the National Parks Service. A separate decades-long campaign, led by the Land and Water Conservation Fund, LWCF Coalition, and their partners, worked to provide full permanent funding for the Land and Water Conservation Fund. After years of extraordinary advocacy, these two campaigns joined to support the Great American Outdoors Act, which passed the Congress by overwhelmingly bipartisan votes and was signed into law on August 4th, 2020. This landmark legislation will invest up to $9.5 billion to repair historic and other assets of the National Parks Service and other federal agencies, as well as fully fund the Land and Water Conservation Fund at $900 million annually. This represents the largest investment in historic resources in more than a generation. We are proud to honor the remarkable campaign championed by the National Parks Conservation Association, the National Park Foundation and the Core Network to address the deferred maintenance needs of federal lands and the LWCF Coalition, the Nature Conservancy and the Trust for Public Land for securing full permanent funding for the LWCF. I'm truly honored to accept this award on behalf of the LWCF Coalition. We have worked for decades to fulfill a promise to the American people to fully and permanently fund the Land and Water Conservation Fund. A key voice in that effort was yours, so thank you to the National Trust for your unwavering commitment. The Great American Outdoors Act is a major step towards fixing our national parks. But this is just the first step. Congress must provide the robust funding so that America's most iconic and inspirational places continue to thrive, now and into the future. And so we can increase access to public lands for all, no matter where they live. One piece at a time, LWCF has protected innumerable special places, from Bandelier to Harper's Ferry to Martin Luther King Junior's birthplace to Flight 93 and everywhere in between. But our history is still being told, and now because of your work with the Coalition, LWCF is permanently funded. Your efforts to protect and preserve our current and future heritage for every generation is assured. So thank you again for this award and for all you have done to achieve this landmark victory. We hope you will continue to join us. Thank you again for this wonderful honor. As I mentioned, today I'm joining you from the Old Wailing Church. It's a beautiful historic church in Edgerton, Massachusetts, here on the island of Martha's Vineyard. I've loved it here for a very long time, and this place is especially important to all of us islanders. The Old Wailing Church is one of the finest examples of Greek revival architecture in New England. In 1980, the church was acquired by the Martha's Vineyard Preservation Trust, an organization on whose board I serve, and now it serves as a key community space on the island. The National Trust and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation have joined together to celebrate collaboration between federal agencies and non-federal partners that result in exemplary preservation outcomes. Please welcome, I'm A. George Johnny, Chairman of the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation to present this year's award for Federal Partnerships in Historic Preservation. I am honored to be here to present the Joint National Trust Advisory Council and Historic Preservation Award for Federal Partnerships in Historic Preservation. The CHP is an independent federal agency that promotes the preservation and productive use of our nation's historic resources. The National Trust is a member of our council and we are grateful for our working relationship. For over 50 years, the CHP has encouraged federal agencies to be good stewards of their historic properties. This award honors outstanding partnerships that preserve important historic resources and have an impact on their communities. It celebrates a project or a program in which a federal agency or one or more non-federal partners has worked together to achieve an outcome that is made possible because of this collaboration. Tonight, we celebrate a model program that is an example of a federal agency working with partners across the country and to the benefit of a multitude of communities and historic resources. The result is a win-win for the taxpayer and for the public. We are thrilled to be presenting this award tonight. Leveraging its historic building inventory, the General Services Administration established its National Historic Preservation Act section 111 Out Lease program in 1999 with no comparable models in the federal government. This nationwide program leases space in historic federally owned buildings for rehabilitation and reuse by the community. In some instances, private partners pay for the capital improvements which benefit the property and the buildings are preserved through a creative team approach. Throughout the U.S., these out leases make federal buildings more accessible to the public, and it attributes to the vitality of the surrounding community. In the 20 years since its inception, the program has earned more than $173 million in income, money which is then dedicated to the preservation of GSA's owned historic buildings. The program has funded hundreds of preservation projects and incentivized the leasing of excess space. Annual income from the program has grown from $575,000 in its first year to more than $12 million today. In Los Angeles, the National Historic Landmark U.S. Courthouse is now housing 140,000 square feet of state courts functions. In Alabama, the Montgomery Greyhound bus station is leased by the Alabama Historical Commission and has been adapted as the Freedom Rides Museum, one of the few civil rights sites operated by the state. The Freedom Rides Museum is now recognized as an official designation of the U.S. Civil Rights Trail along with more than 100 locations across 14 states. Led by the Center for Historic Buildings Office of the Chief Architect, the program is an innovative federal agency model for the effective use of excess space in historic buildings. Through these effective public-private partnerships, thousands of residents have seen a revitalization of their community, increased small business opportunities, and importantly, the improved utilization of historic public buildings. Hi, I'm Dan Matthews, Commissioner for the Public Building Service at the General Services Administration. And on behalf of GSA, thank you. It is an honor to accept the 2020 Federal Partnerships in Historic Preservation Award for the GSA Section 111 Outleasing Program. Since its inception over 20 years ago, the GSA Outleasing Program has restored and increased the public benefit of federally-owned historic properties across the country. Section 111, specifically, has over 700 outleases in 198 historic buildings. GSA's outleases make otherwise highly secure federal buildings more accessible to the public. They also contribute to the economic health and vitality of the community. We are proud to be a partner in the effort to restore and preserve the country's heritage while delivering value to the American people. I'd like to publicly thank my GSA colleagues, Beth L. Savage, Director of our Center for Historic Buildings, Sarah Garner, Section 111 Program Manager, Jeff Jensen, Brian Tai, Rob Lacy, G.G. Peel, and Jason Mack for their historic building stewardship and commitment to the GSA mission. The American Express Aspire Award recognizes emerging leaders in preservation. To present this year's honorees, please welcome Susan Chapman Hughes from American Express. Good evening. I'm Susan Chapman Hughes, Executive Vice President and Global Head of Digital Capabilities Transformation and Operations at American Express, as well as a trustee emerita of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. I'm so pleased to present the 2020 American Express Aspire Award, which highlights the promise and potential of the preservation field through its talented emerging leaders. As part of the National Trust Where Women Made History campaign, American Express has supported the important work to identify, elevate, and preserve the historic places that tell the stories of women, of all ages, ethnicities, backgrounds, and identities, whose vision, passion, and determination has shaped the country through our Partners in Preservation Program. With the National Trust, we have already awarded $2 million in funding to preserve and protect 20 places across the country that demonstrate women's lasting impact on American history and society. One of those impacts is the vital role that women have played in the preservation movement since its inception, and with this year's Aspire Award, we celebrate the achievements of three accomplished young women who each use their unique backgrounds to bring meaning to their preservation work, an activist and architect from Brooklyn, a structural engineer from Chicago, and a preservation planner from Chattanooga. Individually, these women are standouts in their careers and communities, but together they offer an inspiring vision of the future of the preservation movement. The American Express Aspire Award honors three strong and powerful women that are changing the landscape of their communities. In Brooklyn, New York, Sue Milena then is the president and founder of Preserving East New York, a bilingual preservation and advocacy group. She is also the preservation manager of Weeksville Heritage Center. The mission of Preserving East New York is to protect culture and historic structures through landmarking East New York. They focus on educating underrepresented citizens about the importance of their voice within preservation. Sue Milena engages fellow New Yorkers through stands at local farmers markets, bilingual tours in her neighborhood, and heart-bombing actions that show community love for local landmarks. Through her tireless advocacy and preservation, Sue Milena is actively providing a space for people of color to join the conversation. She is changing the narrative and communities that have long been stigmatized by the media and outsiders. In Illinois, Allison Tunen-Talamo advocates tirelessly for the preservation and improvement of historic structures. A first-generation Mexican-American professional, Allison has used her personal history to advocate, energize, and improve communities impacted by development. Bringing her knowledge of engineering, Allison played a pivotal role in preserving the National Landmarked Board Trimotor Hanger in Lansing, Illinois. This led to increased foot traffic and awareness to the smaller and underserved communities near Chicago. It is now a point of pride for the Lansing community. Allison is also engaging and educating young people to join the preservationist community through her role as chair of the Landmarks Illinois Skyline Council, which is building the next generation of leaders working in the built environment. In Chattanooga, Tennessee, Melissa Mordemer works as a historic preservation planner. Leveraging over a million dollars in state and federal grant funds, she was able to restore and transform many important buildings, including the famous historic Rhea County Courthouse. Alongside the Tennessee Valley Authority and the National Park Service, she works to interpret and preserve the Cherokee removal, which is part of the Trail of Tears. Melissa noticed a lack of awareness and education in preservation in Chattanooga. To fill this void, she organized Preservation Chattanooga, a new program of cornerstones which offers workshops and basic restoration techniques. Melissa formed a restoration and consulting LLC, founded a youth preservationist group and harnesses the power of social media to reach and educate folks in her community. She is empowering them to participate in local preservation efforts. Through their expertise in engineering, city planning, and advocacy, these three women are emerging leaders who are changing the landscape of preservation and creating a new future. Please join me in welcoming three amazing women who are changing the future of preservation. Allison Tunan-Tolamo, Melissa Mordemer, and Zou Milena-Ven. Thank you so much the National Trust in recognizing my work with preserving East New York. Getting this recognition is important to me because it's about changing the narrative of East New York. We focus on the love, the passion, the work of the community into moving this neighborhood forward. We use preservation as a tool not to just save buildings, but preservation for us is about saving communities because black and brown communities matter. And before we say that buildings matter, black lives matter. I would like to humbly, graciously thank the National Trust for giving opportunities such as these for individuals to projects and letting us shine and having a voice to speak up. It is important work. Those of us in preservation are the gatekeepers of our history. Ensuring the stories connected to our built environment are told. I would love to thank my family, especially my mom, for always being by my side throughout these inventors in my career and my education. And I would especially like to thank all my mentors who have molded me, challenged me, educated me, and provided me the guidance necessary to become the person I am today. Thank you. I'm so honored to be one of the recipients of this year's American Express Aspire Award, especially that I get to share it with two other amazing women. I love that someone in southeast Tennessee like myself can share an award with people doing great things in Chicago and New York. It just goes to show with preservation. Every place has its story. Every building has its story. So at the end of the day, as long as I can just have someone have a different outlook or notice a building on their commute that they didn't notice before, I consider it a win. Thank you so much. Thank you so much for giving us this opportunity. Thank you so much. Thank you, Allison, Melissa, and Zule Milena, for inspiring us all. It's now time for the prestigious Richard H. Dreehouse National Preservation Awards, which are given to recipients who have reached the highest level of achievement in historic preservation. I'm pleased to welcome Anne Lazar, the Executive Director of the Richard H. Dreehouse Foundation. Good evening. I'm pleased to be with you tonight from the beautiful headquarters of Dreehouse Capital Management as we celebrate the Richard H. Dreehouse Foundation National Preservation Award recipients. For the fifth year, the Richard H. Dreehouse Foundation is presenting these awards in partnership with the National Trust to recognize the best of the best in historic preservation, adaptive reuse, and the reimagining of historic buildings for the future. The Dreehouse Foundation was established in 1992 and over the years has provided dedicated support to the built environment and historic preservation. Thank you to the National Trust for these three decades of partnership and for continuing to be an unwavering steward for these awards. Tonight's recipients not only remind us of the potential of historic places to tell the full history of our country, but also demonstrate how innovative historic preservation solutions can serve the unique needs of any community. Among them are a public health facility focusing on women's and LGBTQ health for underserved populations in New York City, a unique architectural site in Memphis that honors a long legacy of black-owned businesses and community empowerment, and the adaptive reuse of a historic house into a creative urban farming solution for the Matapan neighborhood of Boston. I'm honored to introduce this collection of inspiring projects which speak to the resilience and relevance of the historic preservation movement during such a challenging year. Please join me in celebrating the achievements of the 2020 Richard H. Dreehouse Foundation National Preservation Award winners. Our first Richard H. Dreehouse Foundation National Preservation Awardee exemplifies how historic preservation can be used to meet an important need of the community. Just five years ago, the oldest farm still in existence in Boston was in disrepair. The Epstein estate who owned the property was in a legal battle with the city over demolition by neglect. A designated Boston landmark, the farm is a unique property that expresses the demographic and social evolution of the neighborhood of Matapan over the course of 400 years. Fighting hard to keep the property, historic Boston Incorporated acquired it in 2015. The newly named Fowler-Clark Epstein Farm underwent an extensive restoration which transformed the farm set into a 21st century urban farm, now managed by the Urban Farming Institute. Using demonstration farm beds, classroom spaces, a teaching kitchen and processing facilities, the Fowler-Clark Epstein Farm is working with the Matapan community, a largely African-American and immigrant neighborhood with one of the highest rates of poverty and unemployment in the city to improve food access and turn this space into an urban farming training center. With the support of over 500 community members and friends, in 2018 the farm celebrated its dedication with a mission to end the so-called food desert by training new farmers, expanding the number of small farms and offering access to fresh produce for years to come. Join me in welcoming Kathy Cateritas with Historic Boston Incorporated. Greetings from the Fowler-Clark Epstein Farm in the Boston neighborhood of Matapan. On behalf of Historic Boston, Inc., the Urban Farming Institute of Boston, the Trust for Public Land and North Bennett Street School, I'm excited to accept this honor that celebrates a wonderful renewal of an important historic place. At the Fowler-Clark Epstein Farm, hundreds of people will be obtaining access to fresh food, learning how to cultivate food, and seeing their neighborhood and their community in a completely new way. And for the rest of us, this is really a great model for how to bring people and resources together to achieve the impossible. Historic Boston and our partners are grateful to the Dree House Foundation, to the National Trust, and to many leaders here in Boston, including our mayor, Martin Walsh. Last but not least, we thank the neighborhood of Matapan, a spirited group of residents who kept up their hopes for this place. On behalf of the entire team working on this project, we're very grateful for this honor. Thank you. Our second honoree demonstrates the significance of investing in public facilities for community use. In 1930s New York City, health centers were nearly absent from many neighborhoods. Built in 1937, the Chelsea District Health Center. Renamed the Leona Baumgartner District Health Center in 2002. After the first woman to head the city's health department is one of New York's historic New Deal-era district health centers, which brought primary health care to underserved communities throughout the city. But after decades of use, they fell into disrepair. With the goal of reducing HIV cases through STD education training and treatment, in early 2000s, the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene decided to transform these buildings into state-of-the-art sexual health clinics. In 2018, under the guidance of Stephen Javelin Architecture, the historic 23,600 square foot center reopened to the public. The creative design of the transformed WPA building is inspired by its unique location inside a public park. It reinvents the clinic experience by creating a welcoming environment where everyone feels deserving of dignity and respect. The Chelsea District Health Center serves as a model example of how to upgrade historic and obsolete medical facilities and uplift sexual health clinics that were once stigmatized places. I'm pleased to welcome Stephen Javelin of the Chelsea District Health Center. Wow, thank you so much for this very prestigious award. We really are very grateful to the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the Richard Dreehouse Foundation. What an honor. And also thanks to our team at Stephen Javelin Architecture and our partners, Department of Design and Construction and Department of Health and Mental Hygiene of New York City, for helping make this an innovative project. It's a beautiful site. It's a city block. It's a city park. And this building sits right in the middle of it. And even though the park has been well kept, the building had fallen into disrepair. The city made the decision that instead of selling them, that they were going to renovate them, what's, I think, historic architecturally is that it was probably the first time that the city of New York used architecture to express that healthcare was as important as libraries and police stations. This transformation restates what the original building communicated, that high quality healthcare is an essential right and an important function of civic government. Thank you. Our final Richard H. Dreehouse Foundation National Preservation Award recognizes a building that's a testament to generations of African-American empowerment. Designed by the renowned African-American architecture firm, McKissick & McKissick, the Universal Life Insurance Building, with its expansive limestone facade and unique Egyptian revival style, opened in Memphis in 1949 to great fanfare. Owned by the rapidly expanding Universal Life Insurance Company, which provided an array of community services with the goal of improving the economic condition of people of color, the building was also a meeting place for organizers of the civil rights movement, such as Jesse Jackson and Sammy Davis Jr. In 1973, Universal Life was the largest black-owned business in Memphis. After many decades of service to the community, the company closed its doors in the early 2000s. In 2006, self and Tucker architects purchased the building and began a decade-long journey to save the building. They used the federal historic tax credit and other financing to restore and enhance this historic space, and were able to do so with tight resources. In partnership with the city of Memphis, the work was completed in 2018 and now serves as the office space for self and Tucker architects and the city of Memphis's Business Development Center, which provides economic development resources for black-owned businesses and entrepreneurs. Please join me in giving a warm welcome to Jimmy Tucker and Juan Self of the Universal Life Insurance Company building. We want to thank the National Trust for recognizing the Universal Life Insurance Building with this prestigious award. I also want to take time to thank my partner Jimmy Tucker and the great team of design professionals that made this possible. This project encompasses the preservation and adaptive reuse of a historic Egyptian Revival Office building designed by McKissick and McKissick architects. It is prominently located on the Memphis Heritage Trail and embodies significant regional civil rights history and national business history. And it's now home to our firm Self Tucker Architects and the city of Memphis Business Development Center containing multiple tenants. This innovative public-private partnership was a critical aspect of the successful building revitalization. Each day we are honored to build on this inspirational past for a promising and more environmentally sustainable future. We're thrilled and honored to be a part of this cultural, historic and economic icon in the city of Memphis. Congratulations to our three wonderful Richard H. Dreehouse Foundation National Preservation Award winners. I'm pleased to be joined tonight by Paul Edmondson, President and CEO of the National Trust for Historic Preservation to talk about the impact of these awards on their communities. Thank you, Bob. And congratulations again to the Richard H. Dreehouse Foundation National Preservation Award recipients and to all award recipients of the night thus far. Tonight we've seen the extraordinary accomplishments of people around the country who are strengthening their communities through historic preservation. As these awards demonstrate, preservation has the power to uplift untold stories to make our communities more just and equitable and to improve our health and our well-being. I can't think of a better group to represent preservation's positive impacts than tonight's honorees. It's with the support of the Richard H. Dreehouse Foundation and American Express that we're able to raise awareness of these important inspiring projects, organizations, historic sites, partnerships and individuals who are serving their communities and strengthening the preservation field as a whole. Sincere thanks to both of our sponsors for their generous support and for their deep commitment to historic preservation efforts across the United States. And now the final and highest honor of the night, the Louise Dupont Crown and Shield Award for Lifetime Achievement in the Field of Historic Preservation to present the award, J. Clemens, National Trust Chair of the Board of Trustees. Congratulations again to all the recipients of the 2020 National Preservation Awards. On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I now have the privilege of presenting the National Trust's highest honor, the Louise Dupont Crown and Shield Award for Superlative Achievement in the Field of Historic Preservation. This year we honor a true visionary in preservation, community planning and revitalization. As shopping malls and big box retailers became prominent throughout the United States in the 1970s, once prosperous historic downtowns were being neglected and abandoned across the country. That's when Mary Means stepped up to meet this challenge and in doing so changed the way that communities looked at the value of their historic commercial districts. Throughout her expansive career, Mary has been dedicated to fostering innovative preservation solutions and empowering people to promote and enhance what is special about their communities. Mary's strategic vision, dedication and leadership are evident in the success of Main Street America, an organization that is this year celebrating its 40th anniversary of supporting preservation-based economic development and community revitalization in more than 1600 urban and rural communities. On Main Streets across this country, Mary is both a legend and a hero. Her work has not only preserved the fabric of hundreds of historic neighborhoods, but she has also helped communities come together to recognize and celebrate the cultural and economic value of their distinctive historic downtowns. Through the Main Street framework, Mary has deepened the impact of historic preservation as well as engaged new people in communities across this nation in this important work. While traveling across the U.S. in the 1970s, Mary Means noticed the widespread loss of historic buildings across small towns in the Midwest. With shopping malls drawing retail from downtowns, historic buildings were becoming vacant, neglected and gearing for demolition. Mary Means looked for ways to preserve these beautiful buildings and bring back downtowns but found none. Mary conceived of and designed the Main Street Project for the National Trust for Historic Preservation, a three-town, three-year pilot project in Galesburg, Illinois, Madison, Indiana and Hot Springs, South Dakota. The project had the bold mission of demonstrating economic development within the context of historic preservation. Main Street is more than historic buildings, it's more than small businesses. It's really about the heart and soul of the country, it's a deep part of the American psyche. The pilot was such a success that hundreds of towns across the United States wrote to the trust, wanting their help to reinvigorate their own towns. Knowing that the success of the project hinged on sharing her findings, Mary went around on an educational campaign to save these historic districts. Lessons learned from Mary's pilot towns became the four-point approach that has been used by thousands of towns and cities to save their downtowns. At a national level, the historic tax credit was arguably saved by its link to Main Street more than once. Nothing better exemplifies the small town spirit of working together than the efforts of the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the pioneering accomplishments of its National Main Street Center. Project Main Street evolved into the National Main Street Center, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. It has tracked data in over 2,000 communities. Their grassroots effort is responsible for $85 billion in public private investments, renovating nearly 300,000 buildings, starting more than 150,000 new businesses, and creating 672,000 new jobs. They were doing economic development. Some people were doing preservation, but no one had ever taken all of the elements and put them together the way that Mary did with the Main Street program. That's really what Mary pioneered was thinking about how to use the marketplace as a tool for preservation. It started off as a program and ended up as a movement that continues 35 years later. So this is one of the most successful economic development programs ever created in the United States. Mary Means has made a lifelong career of speaking tough truths and motivating brokers not only to care about historic preservation, but to help elevate the concerns of communities. Mary continued to expand how historic preservation could make practical connections to and beyond communities through her small but mighty firm, Mary Means & Associates. Her work in heritage tourism including plans for Colorado and Pennsylvania convinced legislators that heritage tourism is economic development with real jobs, quality of life, and preservation of places that mattered attached. In 2019, she won the American Planning Association Planning Pioneer Award and later this year, Mary plans to release a book 40 years in the making about the resiliency of Main Streets. Mary is a visionary, a change maker, and a legend who has expanded the narrative around historic preservation in our nation to go far beyond just great places. It is with great pleasure and admiration that I present the esteemed Mary Means, a true pioneer and hero of the preservation movement. I am so excited to receive this award. It's really humbling. Mainly because I've known quite a number of the people who've received it before and they've been inspirations to me, particularly the younger me. And I want to especially recognize the three original Main Street managers, Scott Gerloff, Tom Moriarty, and Clark Shuttle. Together, we truly changed historic preservation. The pandemic recovery is going to be long and it's going to take every one of us doing our part to make it happen. Everyone has a stake in Main Street's future. It's going to take all of us and it's particularly going to take Congress. We're going to need help keeping this vital Main Street revitalization network of organizations going so they can help the individual businesses. It's a lot more than small business though. Main Street is the heart of our communities and so much a part of the American psyche. Together, we can make it happen. I really want to thank everyone who's been involved in the Main Street revitalization movement because it's you who've really done the work. I'm honored and thank you. Thank you, Mary, and thanks to all of you for joining us today for our very first Virtual National Preservation Award ceremony. Hopefully our last. We want to send a personal thank you to the Richard H. Dreehaus Foundation and to American Express for sponsoring today's event. And finally, I want to say a special thank you to you who work to save historic sites, build stronger communities, and tell the full American story. Through your actions, your financial support, and your tireless efforts, what you do has a tremendous impact on people's lives. I hope today's presentation has inspired you to continue to save the places you and your community hold dear. Thank you so much for joining me and good night.


So this video is for you and if you're watching you're likely one of my subscribers who's been part of this journey for if not one day then all three years. It's really a culmination of saying thank you as well as telling you what's next. As many of you guys know I started residency about three months ago and I really wasn't sure if I'd be able to keep up with this channel. In fact I wanted to make it better and bigger but I wasn't sure about half the time. But I really sensed from the pressure that the empty journey has done so much more than my expectation in such a short amount of time. I started a youtube channel last year and it took me almost a year to get to a thousand and within three to four months of 2019 we're able to just surpass that we're about to get to five thousand. So I can already see the growth I see the support I see the community growing and first of all I want to say thank you thank you thank you I don't take my subscriber account and my support in the community lightly honestly I imagine each and every one of you listening to this channel on the other side of this camera and basically filling up a stating auditorium and boy would I be nervous talking to five thousand people right now so I'm gonna act like I'm just talking to you so thank you for being a part of this community for hitting that like button commenting sharing and all I really ask in this video is after I share some of the new things that are coming out and then the journey for you is if anything I have done in these videos the blog posts and emails have helped you then consider one person to share this video or this channel with or subscribe if you haven't and you're somehow still watching this video but thank you again I'm super grateful I quickly want to highlight some of the successes that these journeys have because I feel like I don't talk about it enough so people just see the numbers but one of the things after starting the youtube channel is I've been posting videos on almost every topic I could think of and I have so many more left in the tank but we posted over 125 videos which is insane I'm just happy about being consistent that's one of the things I'm really persistent about doing in life we posted 120 blog posts we're reaching 5000 subscribers we're getting to a point where almost a half a million people have visited the website and that's that's just like mind-blowing so thank you guys so much for just being a part of that community on the instagram page is growing we just started to focus on that recently so I don't want to babble too much let me quickly get in to some of the new things that I have coming for you guys in 2019 as well as 2020 so the first thing I want to talk about that I've already mentioned in a lot of my step one videos is the step one academy this is going to be a premium resource from the MD journey that's going to involve video training study schedules as well as interviews with the top students that have scored really well on the exam so this is a resource that's going to take me some time to develop with a busy residency schedule but I'm already gathering your questions coming up with ideas teaching you very unique as well as advanced strategies to help you succeed so the link will be down below as well as anything I mentioned in this video for you guys to contribute right now and maybe at the survey point depending on when you're watching this video or maybe step one academy's gone live when you're watching this video I'm not too sure about the time frame so definitely check out the link to see where we're at with the project now the next big update and hopefully you guys can see it it's probably the most obvious is that the quality of the channel is about to change dramatically we have a new camera my wife is really into photography so we thought we'd upgrade and just kind of do a two for one and so right now you guys are seeing me on the sony 873 camera she really wanted and I was like you know what the heck I can upgrade from the camera I was using before but hopefully I look a little bit more crispy around the edges there's a little bit more blur a little bit more character to the videos but let me know if you guys like this if you don't I'm still working to kind of adapt into the learn as we go and then the other thing that you guys have been praying in my comment section for me to fix is my audio quality I apologize and if you somehow still made it through those bumps of loud and annoying distracting audio thank you and hopefully this sounds better we have a different audio setup our apartment is a little bit set up too much for echoes and that's kind of where all those previous issues came from but hopefully we sound a little bit better if we do then make sure you give this video like and just let me know in the comment section by audio sounds totally better or you still have some issues here and there and I can still work on fixing them that's update number two update number three I'm so excited for this hopefully you guys are too I get emails all the time about different specific questions step one studying maybe an international student you want tips and advice and sometimes I'm just not able to get to your emails quick enough and you may email me with a quiz coming up on Friday but I'm on icu or something so I found that the good way for me to interact with you without like restarting my coaching program which honestly just took too much of my time as I was getting busier is to start the MD journey podcast so this is a podcast this is going to be a culmination of my videos turned into podcasts as well as interviews that I'd like to do with you guys if you would want me to help you one-on-one coach you on a phone a Skype call and or just your audio and you'd be interested in me recording it to help other people we can change your names your institution whatever maybe to give you some privacy but if you want me to give you advice that's kind of what this podcast is going to be it's a culmination of me quickly talking to a mic with a nice smooth voice but also helping you guys out on your issues and hopefully that conversation with you can also help other students with similar problems so if you guys are excited for the MD journey podcast it's going to take me some time to figure out the logistics and get it together as well set up some interviews with you guys but if you are interested in being interviewed and you have a question pressing question maybe coming up relating step one school balancing interviews residency you name it I'm here to help you I've helped countless students already through coaching program and I used to have it and they've all been wonderful experiences and I'm hoping to use kind of a coaching pseudo coaching program with you guys for free to be able to create content for the podcast so hopefully you guys are excited if you have other ideas that you want me to discuss on the podcast like current events journal articles I'd love to do it so make sure you comment down below also check out the link which is just be a waitlist as well as information and I'm gonna need y'all's help when the podcast go live to make sure that it's just not like a podcast sitting there but the podcast rocks it dominates and that's what we're here about we want to succeed but we're gonna thrive when we do something here at the MD journey and the last thing I want to touch on is something I've never talked about prior to this video so if you're watching this you're gonna be the first one hearing about it and that is a new kind of thing that I will be releasing soon called the med vault I'm super excited about it it's gonna take a little bit of tinkering with and I'm gonna have a beta group but if you guys are interested in just learning more about the med vault when it comes out link on that will also be in the description it's going to be a lot of feedback that you're gonna have to provide but you will be the first to kind of be part of a new program but if you think you have the time to give me one or two sentence feedbacks ever so often and you want to be the first on something we can make really really big then check out that link in the description but guys I don't want to take up too much of your time those are the biggest updates in addition we're also going to be increasing the frequency of our youtube videos so I'm not going to just be publishing once every week it's going to go to twice a week because I have more content for you guys and I don't want to wait to make it in December I want you to see it in like a week so I'm definitely working hard to make sure blog posts as well as videos are coming at you really fast so make sure you show your love for the channel for your love for me hopefully I've helped you guys out hit that like button like I say dominate destroy disintegrate that like button until it's off your browser help the channel out make sure you subscribe if you haven't I don't know how you somehow made it to the end of this video without being a subscriber but like come on at this point you might as well do it but thank you guys so much for joining the journey hopefully I've been a little help to you on yours make sure you check out the link down below I'll see you guys later peace


In this program we are going to see how we can make the unsearchable pdf basically it is a reverse of the searchable pdf maker So we are going to take a normal file in which we can select or search any text and we are going to convert it to the text format pdf basically simply like the scan version of it Let's see how we can do it I'm going to select Any file, okay, this looks good and based in our program make sure it is copy always and What we are going to do is like We're going to create the instance of the unsarchable pdf maker Then we are going to load document. We are going to specify the resolution to it Hire the resolution the better the quality, but also the file size increases. So It's up to you up to which extent you want to maintain the resolution Then we are going to have the image format for it So we are going to use a PNG, but you can use any image format you want and then We are just making it's unsearchable and saving the output file So let's get started I'm creating one instance here providing the registration name and key Just load document here come in from file Set the resolution Let us say 300 set the image format. We're having the PNG and then Output so it we are having the few options here. The first one is simple like specify the output file and it will generate the All of the pages output. We can also specify Send output to stream also We can have the control like for which page we want to make the searchable unsearchable pdf and Different different options based on your requirement. So here we are using the all the pages and let's say Output.pdf and we don't need a red line It's done. Let's see the output. Okay. Here it is So you see it's all images now


Right, welcome back to the Crockbox. My name is Brendan today. We are on episode 333 of the Death Walkthrough, very exciting. Um, yeah, last time you haven't seen it, we managed to get here to the Polaris area, the little rose, which is very cool. We are exactly, as of this quest, exactly halfway through Novus, so that's exciting. Let us defeat some fishies. Fish with boots. Boot fish. Boot fish will be destroyed. Um, yee, right. Uh, let's I love the music here. It's so good. So good. Um, right. We will do this. We will do this, but yeah, I hope everybody's had a fantastic day today. Wherever you may be. Um, yee. Hi Dylan, how are you? How are you today? Ka-blam. We've got a storm shark. Okay, cute. This is going to do so much damage. So much damage to me. Yep, 542. Yikes. Um, we do this. We do this, instantly. This should kill. If this doesn't kill, I would be very upset. Very, very upset. Blade. Goodbye. Yep, goodbye. They are dead. They are dead. Easy dead. Easy dead. Easy peasy. They're well little fishy. Little meagre. Guys, did you know that the frame is behind the table? Because I didn't. You see it bit at you. Food that bites back is not food at all. The speaking is new, though. They've never done that before. Regardless, they must be replaced with less talky walky fish. Simple fish, like delicious Valencian snipper. Perhaps you have a way to do this? A frame of mind? No, we have seen no such thing, but I wonder... Maybe the talking fish was actually Dazine reaching out, citizen. It did mention a frame, eh? I was just about to say that, you vitamin deficient, I like it. That's the way with it. The moussitas once oppressed us for the walrusks. Some retain their rudeness to penguins, but he is right about the fish. The frame is behind the table, it said. Perhaps it means, surely a café table. It was the very first thing we built when we settled in. Go now, talk to its proprietor. Okie dokie, let's leave a mark here. Let's leave a mark here and run around this place. You're staying in Amish country. Exciting! That sounds cool. That sounds pretty cool. Death prison, wow. So useful. We do have a lack backspace, so luckily we don't get anything other than music stores. Spidey ice, I love it. I love it so much. So much. Hello. Okie dokie, time to rescue people in the café. Wow. Man, all we do is just go to places, rescue people and then come out. It's the only thing that we do here. It's kind of crazy. It's our wizards' whole brain freeze, cute. Prism's so useful in a world where almost every mob and boss has universal resist. Exactly. Exactly. It's the most useful spell that they've got here. So useful. Everyone would use it 100%. You know, it's what happens when they give out so much peace to people that all of a sudden, cute earthquake, all of a sudden you have to start giving people, giving enemies universal resist because otherwise there's no reason to have all of this peace. I've been thinking about it recently. I feel like it's going to be, I don't quite know how stats are going to progress because you're starting to get to a point where, can you just keep increasing things? I don't know if you can. I don't know if you can just keep increasing things at this rate. It's kind of crazy, in my opinion. Kind of crazy. Right. Crit, blade, boom, they're dead.  Oh, he may not die. No, he did die. Easy. Easy peasy. Nice. Right. They don't look very trapped to me. It looks like it's a very open door. They could just jump. They could literally just scale the wall. Problem solved. Problem solved. We're at the point now where PS is valued over prisms. Exactly. Exactly. Slightly worrying, but that's fine. Like, I just feel like there's just a whole lot of spells that are just useless in the game. And I feel like we should be encouraged to use them, even if they're not the most like, even if it's not not the most like straightforward strategy, like, you know, it doesn't have to be the best strategy, but you should be encouraged to try and use as many spells as possible. You know, if you want to, if you want, if you want a challenge, you should be able to, like, effectively use any spell in the game for the purpose of a fight. Because at the moment, for the longest time, all you've done is you get bigger spell, it does more damage, thus meaning it is better. Whereas, like, it just doesn't, and then when you get AoEs, like, 7 per AoEs, once they change them to be like way above the damage curve for your school, those are the only things people use now. It's really sad. It's really, really sad. This is also only in regards to PvE. Don't care about PvP. Yeah. Whereas, like, I was kind of excited, but when I did my fire and novice, because I used, we used the strategy that I don't think anybody has ever used before. And it was so cool. It was different, you know, it was different.  It was actually a little bit different. Whereas, all I've done for the last, like, perver on this character here is just spam, spam scarecrow, spam deonite, spam lulu. Those are the only spells that I have actually ever really cast. It's kind of sad. It's kind of sad. Yeah. I don't know. I just feel like there's going to become a breaking point where things are just going to, like, collapse, I feel. Because, you know, there's only so much that you can do with what you've got at the moment. Now it's going to, what was exactly? Exactly. 11 damage. Wow. Nice, nice work. Nice work. Good job. 605. That's a little bit better. That's a little bit better. That's a little bit better. Um, okay. Bum, bum, bum. And kerb, blamo. Look, ship of course. Wow, crazy. Who would have thought? The problem is that in nine times out of ten, the better option is to always go for an AOE. It's just the better thing to have. Because generally you're fighting more than one thing, so you don't want to be wasting time. Merci, merci. I will report this crumbling cafe to the assembly. Well, that is not my fifth day. It is too orange. There was a very tall person in a strange uniform sitting over there before the shaking. But it seems he left, and I very much wish to follow suit. Um, the, the, what was, what was I saying? I can't remember what I was saying. Um, it's, it's more, more likely that anytime you're playing the game, you will be using an AOE. And that fool who started fires. What is wrong with this world? It's not a world. It's a being from beyond everything known, a living black hole that seeks to absorb life itself. We're tri-eji. Perhaps I will stick around a while longer. A weird uniform, a cabal uniform, yeah. Something like that, hey. Um, but yeah, like, it's more likely that you'll use a AOE over any other spell, but you should be encouraging people to use other spells as well. And perhaps that is just having fights that are just one, one thing, like just a boss fight, just one boss. Of my fiend! That should settle things down. It was probably Monquistons anyway. Very temperamental, spreading their drama to our shores. Oui. Oui, had a saboteur or two. A Marley Bornean fire starter. Their government called her criminal. Our ambassador is over there spitting at them anyway. You wish to speak to their fiend? Why? Her fires are cringed and she's imprisoned. No, no, we must continue the hunt for the frame of mind. You found nothing by Soleil Grafiteable? Perhaps we need more clues. Fight the Miroms and see what they say. Okey-dokey, me got him. Oh, Dylan. Coming out. Fighting words today, geez. Um, but yeah, I feel like this should be a boss fight in every world. That's like a few of them. Whereas just the boss. Just you versus a boss. You have to do it solo just because that would encourage people to actually use spells outside of their outside of their comfort zone. Because I feel like there's just there's just a lack of a lack of diversity of like spells that people use, which is kind of sad. You know, it's just really upsetting because you should be able to use whatever spells you want and not feel bad about it. But you always feel bad about it because AOEs are so much more highly valued because your time is important to you. Your time is important. Bum bum bum. What is that snowman? Is that a new animation for snowmen? It must be. It must be. It must be. Right, skicker. Go. Ka-blam. Crit. Blade. Blade. And Ka-blam. Goodbye.  I'm sorry. I'm sorry, fishy, but you have to die now. Where the ice stands glub glub glub glub glub glub glub glub glub glub glub. Where the ice stands glub? What does it mean? It means nothing. Ice does not glub fish glub. I might have an idea. You have no ideas. You hear suit Kotrack. No, we must think about this. Very well, wizard. I suppose I can take you to meet a saboteur while I sink. I don't know why you're so interested. Or she was a dog. She has no feathers, but have it your way. Come along. Dogs have feathers too. Can't confirm. Just kidding. You're very edgy today. You sure are. You sure are. 100 percent. 100 percent. Behold, the nouveau Bastille. We found this giant fishhead building when we arrived and just rolled with it. Once, the Bastille was a symbol of our oppression. Pinguin citizens were falsely imprisoned by walrusks and their moussitar mercenaries. But we slipped our chains and bound our enemies in our place. Isn't that so? Pay's not bad. Now the citizens are the kings. The kings are in the Bastille, and the spiral will see us for what we really are. But I digress. Go inside the wizard. We will await you here. Okey dokey. What is inside? I wonder. Next scene is getting to you, fear. Boy, about time you lot came to spring me. Oh, sorry, mate. I was thinking of someone else. What can I do for you?  Got recruiters to start some fires here. Well, I'm an honest sort of lady. What can I say? The birds can't be right and plain. I don't hold a grudge. I'll go. They'd know the plain type, plausible inchman type, and I'm comfortable with that. Orange fevers. Nothing about no blokes with no orange fevers. I'll something. Yeah, that sounds right. Shouldn't you go deal with that?  Such a great character. Do I play pirate? Yeah, I do. Another earthquake. Who is bringing this stress into my world? It came from the residential island. Quickly wizard, go do heroic things. Yes, I do play pirate. I have played pirate a lot. I have five maxed characters on pirate. Yeah. Where are we going this way? Oh, to a slightly road place. Love it. Now that Benedict was found out, they were told to blame everything on him. Yeah, I think so. Interesting. Did I think a strange tiger? I wonder who that could be. I see that you have the chimney teleport. You have that one activated too. Yeah, I finished the scroll of fortune just the other day. Why does she have an orange name? What does that mean? Usually nice people have green name. Strange. Surely nothing could go wrong. Surely nothing could go wrong. I quite like the chimney teleport effect. It's quite subtle. I usually like the green ones, and I have quite a few of those. But I think the chimney set one's pretty good as well. Pretty good. This is the ice spell. Yeah, this is the ice spell.  Yeah, agree. It's a very good teleport effect. It's a really good teleport effect. Right. And kill. Sorry, megrim. Sorry. I apologize. I apologize. I do feel bad about this, but it has to happen. The quest arrow demands it. Sure thing. Wances can wait. Need polygons. Three polygons. More specifically. Right. Let's try this fight. I love how the number is inside the house. Pretty cool. Pretty cool. Sion of quest arrow. Yep, pretty much. Pretty much. Why can't she do it? Honestly. Why is she so incapable of helping? Surely a string caster. She can just string cast these guys away, right? That's how it works. Surely. Surely that's how it works, right? What quest are we up to? Must be up to this one, I think. Must be this one. I, oh no. Ouch. Just getting under 600 damage. Not too much. Not too much. Same color name tag as the mobs. Yeah, I know. I felt weird, eh? Surely that's just a bug, right? Surely just a bug. Surely. I hate this spell because when it does its calculations, the whale is falling and it looks like it's lagging. I don't like it. I really hate it. I really hate it. It frustrates me every time I see it. And dead. Just kidding. One of them is still alive. Ha ha, fun. Guess we can Grim Reader or something. I think we'll have to Grim Reader for this one. Uh, right. Blade. Blade, blade, blade, blade, blade, blade. And we will go for another blade, but we're gonna Grim Reader. Just because we haven't seen that today might as well. Also the camera on it is weird because it shows the sky in the background before the whale falls. I didn't notice that. But that is weird. That is weird. Very strange. Right, two blades. Then we'll just pass one round and then hit. How long is this? Right, it's holy moly. One more round. Don't you dare recast it. I was gonna say if you recasted it, not cool. All good. Right, here we go. Boom. Goodbye. Sorry. Grim Reader time. Ha ha. I have to say this is one of my favorite spells in the game. It just looks so cool. Looks so cool. Well, the fact that you're more upset with me investigating it means I should investigate it. Oh, nuts. The jig is up. I told the boss we shouldn't stick around after we cast those spells he gave us. I feel like they're not holding their swords properly. He wanted to know how well they worked. The intruders don't look that tough. Just, you know, get them. This ain't just any intruder. This is the wizard. No, it isn't. Yes, it is. I'd recognize that face anywhere. He's impaling himself every time he talks. Look, I'll get him myself and I'll show you this isn't the wizard. Well, I'll show you that it is the wizard. I am the wizard. I am always have been the wizard. You just didn't know it. That really unsettles me. Really unsettles me that their swords are not in their hand properly. I don't, I, it was not like this. It was not like this when I ran through this. Like this. Right. On my fire it wasn't like this. On testosterone it wasn't like this. This is a new bug, right? Surely this is a new bug. Surely this is a new bug. Somehow they've been like rotated slightly and it makes you look really bad. That's interesting. That's interesting. Anyway, anyway, moving on swiftly from that we will simply scarecrow and put them out of their misery even though they keep slicing themselves in half each time they talk. Right, hopefully that should kill. Pretty sure it should. Yeah, it does. Nice. GG. You know, I think this might be the wizard. Oh, for the love of, let's just get out of here before they figure out what we've been doing. Well, I will figure out what you've been doing no matter what, dude. No matter what. Oh, bezel again. I dare say I think they discovered our little ploy.  Um, right, bezel. Bezzle, bezel, bezel. What are we going to do with you, buddy? How much does Empower cost? Where's Empower? There it is, wonder. Um, do we have, we have more? Don't worry. We have more cleans. We always have cleans. All good. Let's do this. Who else has the feeling that there were less spokes and testrooms didn't lie from? I'm starting to think that. It's starting to think they're not going to lie. They have, they have Nerf Basil, right? That was in the last patch. They nerfed Basil a little bit. He's not as toxic anymore. I think just kind of nice for me. Kind of nice for me, not gonna lie. Keyword is a little bit. Yeah, okay. What exactly did they do then? What exactly is keyword a little bit mean? What does that even mean? Um, I'm just going to discard that and just cleanse. Just cleanse because I can. What is this? It is Fomori. Fomori. Blam. Did a little bit of damage, not gonna lie. That's not cool. What the frick is that? Dude, what the heck? What was that spell? I've never seen that spell in my life. It may be so it doesn't trigger Cheatwind the Minions cast. Okay, that's cool because that is technically a bug. So I'll take that. I'll take that. That wasn't furiating. After the first round, I'm like, there should have been more weaknesses on me. And I was half expecting them to do it when the Minions were casting. So I'm glad that that was fixed. Or patch. We can go for this. That Fomori is toxic. Very toxic. Very, very toxic. Okay, well luckily we're getting off all of these weaknesses. You see, this is where we need the whole Roshambo stuff. Eat those weaknesses away. Honestly, this is why we need it. Rapid keep saying mobs aren't smart. Damn, these mobs do be smart though. You know? Just saying. Why can't we get that Fomori? I know, right? I know, right? Would it be too hard to convert all of the treasure cards into spells that we can train? I don't think it would be because at least all of the animation is done. Like theoretically, the hardest part of a new spell would be the animation time of it. So if you're simply just taking that spell and put it slapping it onto a trained card, is that all that hard? I didn't think it would be, personally. He's gonna do this real quick. Just to kill the Minions real fast. Just kill the Minions real fast. Really? They didn't fix that? That's a bit toxic. That's a bit unfair, really. That's a bit unfair. That's a bit unfair. Oh well. Oh well, I guess. Or just be taking the existing and some more intention weaknesses to it. Yeah, exactly. I mean, just for like spells in general, just all of the treasure card spells, why don't we just make them into learnable spells? You know? All of the animations are done for it, so that wouldn't necessarily be too difficult. All you have to do is rebalance it, but they keep changing spells every five seconds anyway, so obviously that's not out of their capabilities to do. Because every update, every single spell it seems, gets changed completely. So I don't see why that's like, why that would be a big deal. We're gonna just pass real quick. Just gonna pass real fast. So if it's all, if all that it is, is just assign it to a trainer, you know, maybe whack together a Spelloman path for it real fast. Even then, it doesn't have to have a Spelloman path, you know? Problem solved. Easy peasy. Easy clap. Easy clap. New spell, new spell good. New spell is good. Oh, I wanted this. I'm gonna do this first. Then we're gonna go for a, what is this? This is a weakness as well, isn't it? No, it doesn't. Okay, cool. But yeah, I just feel like that would be not too bad to do. I feel like just giving people a lot of different spells to use would be cool. You're not gonna be able to learn all of them because you have a limited number of training points, but you know, if you get max level, you do generally have a few training points to spear, you know? So perhaps learning other spells isn't out of the question, you know? Like that's not necessarily a bad thing, I would say. Kaplan. Monster mesh. Fair enough. Fair enough. Fair enough. Understood. Understoodable. Boom, boom, boom, boom. Right, Kaplan.  Very exciting. Do a bit on the boss a bit. He is dead, he probably has like 70% resist to me or something. And I'm just being dumb, hitting him without anything. Oh, that did a lot. That did a lot. He doesn't have that much resist. All right, he doesn't have that much resist. I just need to go for a big grim next. Problem solved. Except for the fact that we'll be weakness. So when you take off the weakness first and then we'll hit. Boom, boom, boom. Oh, what? He's not. He's not gonna weakness me. What the heck? What do heck? Why? Why? Maybe he doesn't do it when his minions are dead? I don't get that. Bit strange. Bit strange. Not gonna lie. It's not like that was a Pip-Late either. Odd. Odd. Very odd. Right, Kaplan. Oh, nice. Good damage. Real good damage. Was Cabal all along? All dogs of war are, you see. But it isn't as bad as it sounds. The boss leading this mission can explain. I think you know him. He's been chanting your name since you arrived. Oh, who is it? I wonder who it will be. So wizard, you came looking for the cause of the earthquakes. The sabotage across Novus and all you found is me. I've been thinking about our last battle since Caramel. You humiliated me in Le Bon Bon Mule. I told you I would get stronger. And I have. I farmed evil magma peas and couch potatoes until my hands grew raw. I searched for hours for the perfect reagents to craft my weapons. And I have a pet. Now you face your equal wizard. You face the divine cabalist. Honestly, I respect his. I respect him, but he can die as well. I should take note of the empowers. Oopsie doopsie daisy do. That's fine. Um, your monitor's power cable broke the other day. Getting a replacement cable today and I can't wait to get back to Wiz. That's not good. That's really not good. I'm sorry that you have one of this power cable. That's weird because usually those power cables, they're quite sturdy because I assume it was like a an IEC. Regular sort of IEC thingy, my body. Usually they're pretty, pretty strong usually. Um, yeah. Just count this. Go for another blade. Another blade. We'll go for a blade and then probably hit, I guess. I guess. Should be good. Um, at least he's holding his sword correctly. Exactly. Here's the only one here that actually knows how to hold a sword properly. No wonder he's the senior cabal leader. No wonder. No wonder. All the others need to go back and learn how to hold a sword properly. He also has a maycast brace. Pet, so it's trash. Get good. Oof. Yeah, imagine having maycast brace. It's not like it broke, but it shorted or something. At least that's what I'm hoping happens. I've only had this one for about two years and they've moved it once, so I hope this won't damage. Well, if that's the case, then it might be a power issue because that does happen sometimes. It does happen. Um, hopefully it isn't an internal issue. I mean, usually if it was an internal issue, it usually, from my experience, happens after you've, like, suddenly done something to it. Especially after only two years. Monitors don't usually give out after two years. Um, usually unless it's had a really, really, really rough life, but usually as long as you're not chucking it off balconies, it was something. Monitors don't generally have such a tough life. So yeah, that's interesting. I hope it's just a power supply issue. That would be, um, probably beneficial. But also that's a bit strange because usually, usually, like, those cables generally, or at least here in New Zealand, are pretty, pretty good. Pretty good. Um, especially if they just continually stay plugged in. So interesting. I'm not even getting power to it. Like the LED that lights up isn't powering at all and I've only moved it once and it was two hours drive from college. When did you do that? Was that, like, recently or was that, like, have you used it since you did that? That might be a power issue, I would say then. So your power cable is probably what I would fix first. Um, but that's still strange. Still strange. Power cables don't generally just, like, die, generally. Um, but hey, maybe yours is built different. I don't know. It was like two months ago. Yeah, so I don't think it would have been the, um, probably not the monitor. It was probably the power supply. Um, one thing to make sure is that it's, I know this sounds really stupid plugged in properly, but sometimes with, I assume it's an IEC cable. Um, they kind of look like they're in, but they're not actually in properly. Um, that could be an issue, but otherwise I'd just get another power cable and see if that works, is it? Yeah. Man. That's a shame. I'm very, very upset. Why would you man over me?  Oh the heck. Why would you do this to me? Stop this. Man, this at once. My man's. Stop it. Stop it. This dude been cheeky. Cheeky. Um, allergy or trigger. So I'm hoping I don't have to replace it. I'd expect me to build it better if it quits after two years. Yeah, I would too. I would too. Interesting. Because usually, usually LG are pretty good. Hopefully it's just a power issue. Just a power cable. All those mega stacks were worth it. Maybe, maybe, but can I still kill you? Would they be still worth it if I killed you right now? Imagine, imagine, imagine if I destroyed you with the mega stacks worth it then? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know about that one. Boop. Goodbye. See you later. He should have said I hate this game. It would have been really funny. Yes, we're behind the earthquakes here in Laville Rose, inspired by recent events in Conitus. I have no idea why we did all this. Maybe another cobalus does. I didn't care. I just came here to defeat you. So much for having dreams. I'm lucky. I'm lucky. I don't know if we're going to level up in the next 15 minutes. Maybe we will. Surely we will, right? It'll be close. Yeah, it'll be close. It'll be close. I would like to at least get one level today. Make me feel good about myself. Um, right. Let's go. Slighty eyes. Best ice. I love it. I wish the whole world was, I wish this whole area was just slidey eyes. That would be really funny. Like, you would have absolutely no control and I would love that. I think it would be very, very funny. If just everything here is slidey eyes. They should have done that, honestly. Two polygons. Right, talk to Martha. Martha. Hello. Got me. I am indeed cobal. Good show. The dogs of war themselves are a cobal invention used to disguise our presence while we scare everyone off this world because it's dangerous. That's why our leaders brought us here because they know firsthand how corrosive this world is. It warps space and magic changes the fundamental laws of the spiral as casually as you change your hat. It must be destroyed or at least isolated. We aren't your enemies this time, wizard. We want what you want. We want to protect the spiral as it is. Help us. Talk to the leaders of the settlements here. Convince them to leave. I'm not buying it. I'm not buying it. Cobald bad. 100% always bad. They are the bad guys. They could never be good. Nope. Nope. Even if they had good intentions, still bad. Still bad. That's how it works. 100% how it works. Right, let's scoot around the meagre and talk to this penguin lady. They saw their signs tantrum in Conotus and tried to replicate it here. And they say it's for our own good? Or they are not working with the Marleybonian government? No. True. True. They did the chocolate in the wells. At any rate, their agents are either scattered or captured. Victory is ours this day. Ma'am, there is still the small matter of starvation. Remember, we're out of food? Silence, you contemptible club of contrariness. But we, I am indeed quite peckish. Forget this, a cabal. We must find the frame of mind. We had two hints to its location. But we need more. The fish know things. Make them tell us. Okie dokie. More meagre and defeating. So sad. We're going to get a badge soon. Just because we have to defeat so many meagrems. Oh my gosh. I still haven't taken out the empowers. This is great. Great work. Great work. Someone remind me after this fight to take out empowers if I don't remember. Please. Otherwise we'll be here with empowers all day because I will not remember to take them out. That's for sure. That's for sure. I can't be held responsible for taking them out. We should remember. Maybe. If I keep talking about it, then I'll remember or something like that. Probably. Probably. Do you think we can finish this? Hmm. I feel like we should be able to finish this. Maybe. We might go slightly over an hour just to finish this area. Because we're kind of close. Kind of close. Kind of close. And then we can go back to put on them over next time. Next week or something. Whenever I next stream this. Probably next week. Right. Scarecrow time. Scarecrow time. Goodbye. Goodbye little fishy. Little fishy. Keblam. Keblam. Crit blade boom. Good. Bye. Cool. Right. Easy clap. Hopefully the last one did die. Yeah. Nice. Nice. Nice. Nice. We did not collect. Oh my gosh. What's with this? We've already got a badge now. Mega important. Yikes. How do we not collect? Devastating. Absolutely devastating. Geez. Geez. Right. Blade. Haha. And we can hit. Boom. Boom. Boom. Bam. Bam. Boom. Boom. Bam. Bam. Bam. Bam. Boom. Boom. This is just a mental. I think this is just a mental. Pretty sure this is just a mental and not remove blade is correct. Good. Good. Good. Good. Good. Very cool. Very cool. Keblam. Stormwater of course. Yep. Okay. Fun. Thanks a lot game. I appreciate you. So cool. So, so cool. Why, why were they easy the first time and now they're hard? What the heck? The first two fights of these guys easy. This fight however hard. Maybe it's because I'm fighting the storm ones. That's probably why. That's probably why actually. Because there's like meth ones as well that we were first facing earlier. Maybe that's the problem. Maybe that's the problem. Oh well. Oh well. Is fine. Great. Blade. Goodbye. Right. GG. Nice. Where the cold forms arose. Okey dokey. Behind the table where the ice stands groob and where the cold forms arose. Those are our clues. But what does that mean? They could mean. Silence you lumbering clip clopping clod. I have it. The first clue does indeed indicate solar cafe table or an island behind it. But the witch. Maybe that one with the standing ice spires and the frozen rose. Maybe that one with the standing ice spires and the frozen rose. Magnifique. I have solved the riddle. I will arrange for a boat from the theater district wizard. Take it to the frame of mind and ask your design for valencian snapper. Okey dokey. Valencian snapper time. Okay. What we'll do is we'll talk to design and then we'll finish off today. But do not fear because I will be back in about an hour or two. In about an hour or two. And we'll do a little bit. I am here. Yes I'm pretty sure that's what it means in French. Yeah we'll do some balance stuff in about an hour or two. In an hour or two. Two frames of mine connected now to the central carnitas. I feel more whole. Just we the stone of heaven and love heroes and each is more as I reconnect to myself wizard. You may notice new pathways between the shards. You have seen them. We the holes in the sky are but expanded frames of mind harmless breaches in space time connecting the fragments of my mind and body. But do not worry. They are confined to novice alone. Tonghawk may have bought into the spiral but I am not him. Not any more. Say still difficult to focus on any one thing. There is noise. Static. Chaos. A shard is a morass of minds. A tangle of conflicting wishes. One man wants what his neighbor has. The neighbor just wants what the man can't get. I can give anything if they could decide what they need. They need fish. The penguins already have fish. Do they not normally wear shoes? Very well. I shall create a bounty of this Valencian snapper. Well, say done. Open more frames of mind and I can do this for everyone. No more conflict. No more duels. No more quakes. For Cabal is here I know. I've been trying to reach out to them. To the ones I met before. But they don't hear. They don't want to. They try to hide. But I can sense them when they gather. Their minds become beacons. They're here. There are different wants. Different factions. I can't read clearly through the fog of thoughts. Convince them please to stop. Hello. Maxine Rockopier, citizen like all others but still supreme in her own way, has sent me to fetch you. Probably because there are now holes in the sky and fish falling like snow. Is this the frame of mind through which you speak to the world spirit? Can it hear us even now? By all the winter's chill it does speak. And I take it he has provided us this wealth of fish. What a gift. If he could give anyone anything, he could eliminate conflict over resources or territory. He could be the glue that binds warring civilizations. Sorry, lost myself there. Citizen Maxine usually doesn't let me talk this much. And I don't think she's interested in binding civilizations. I think she'd prefer war. Prefer everyone left Novus except for her. But again, I say too much. And you look busy. I'll report what happened here in a bit. I might rest a while before returning to get fish bones hurled at me. Thank you for letting me speak. Right swear of the cabal. Ah wizard, what a tangled yarn we weave when in design we believe. Hmph. You think this design is your friend? But it is nothing, literal nothing, the very antithesis of existence. Less than death. It is oblivion. And you let it into our world, into every world. It never helped you. It used you, tricked you, made you its anchor to the spiral. And why? But I'm wasting my breath. You are determined to protect this thing. I am determined to protect the spiral from it. So come along. I'll show you what you seek. Load, please game. Hello wizard.  Not as comfortable as the monastery. But it beats the cavity. I still remember it, you know. And the aberrant creatures down there. They whisper in my dreams. All I want is for the whispering to stop. Even if I have to silence you too. I think you've just gone mad. Honestly, I think that's a you problem, not a me problem. Your problem, not a me problem. I don't really care about the whispering because I live with it. I live with it. Okay, you're just a little whispered to me as well. She's copying me, copycat. Um, imagine, imagine if the copycat actually copied the dispels that you used and just used them. Crazy. Crazy. Too bad. Copycat is only in Caramel. Nowhere else. Definitely not here. No, no, no. Not at all. Not at all. It's just a coincidence that there's two cats that look awfully similar to the copycat except slightly different type of cat. Yeah. Coincidence completely. 100% of coincidence. Right, Gigi. Goodbye. Maybe she is here. Who would have seen that coming? Oh my gosh, this is crazy. Absolutely crazy. Some fur die, a little bribery, but I didn't expect you to show up at my door. It's what we do, the cabal. We infiltrate, we lurk, we watch, we seize opportunities. One of these shards could just have easily found me in Mirage, but I wasn't the only one they found. Oh, no. We're a factional group and another sale just happened upon this fragmented world. Manticore Squad. Oh, there are legend in the cabal, handpicked by one of our worst to do one thing. Destroy our false life. Interesting. Right. Let us destroy all of these guys' false life because they don't need to live anymore. I feel like they would be better not living, personally. That's just my opinion though. That is just my opinion. What is this? Weakness? Okay, good. I've got weakness on my mind because that happens every five seconds on the balance at the moment. Every time I see a balance spell, my mind's instantly like, oh no, they're weakening me. It's not great. It's not great. It's a blam. Oh my gosh. Whoa, fire dragon. Whoa, whoa. Geez, dude, come. He's trying to go, he's trying to do pro PvE strats. He did a frenzy and now he's, now he's going for a, this guy did a blade and now he's going for a authorist. Oh my gosh. They're trying to probe PvE me. This is so sad. Whatever shall I do? Guess I'll just block and have lots of resist. He's even cheating. His is Moon School. What's with that? That's a bit cheeky. That's a bit cheeky. I don't have a Moon School authorist. S M H my head. How dare these guys? So sad. Right, goodbye. Goodbye little manticore squad people. Goodbye. See you later. No one likes you. I don't think the first one died. Oh no, he did. I'll follow you and see that you're terrible.  Only reason. Thought or the amount of time down there but the cavity it left its whispers. When we got here the whispers became screams and we changed our powers grew our spells twisted. This world remade us and sorry partner, but if you don't leave us to fight back against it, I reckon we're going to have to use them new powers to force you. Okay, let us. I think we should be fine. They are both myths, which slightly worries me. I submit myth and fire. Do you know what I've actually been really wondering? Where is the old one? Because if this is if this is just all of the people that he is, you know, consumed well in Caramel while he was nothing, then where's the old one? Because surely, surely, surely design didn't like consume the old one just to take his form. Like he would still be around here somewhere you would think, right? Because then why didn't he just like take the form of some something else? Unless did we I can't even remember. Did we save everybody from the cavity? So I thought we didn't. I thought we didn't save everyone from the cavity. Maybe we did. Maybe we didn't.    Okay, they're just spamming stuff at this point. Just kind of crazy. Elemental copycat. Wow, cute. So cool. I enchanted the wrong blade with the wrong thing. Oh, well, it's fine. It's fine. It's perfectly fine. We should be okay probably. Um, right? Blam. Ouchie. Ouchie-outtree. This ain't natural. What do you mean? This ain't natural. This is perfectly fine. I see no problem at all. Is she going to do a myth, myth rank two? Yeah. So they just copy every spell that they have with a rank two of the other school. Interesting. Interesting. Or the same rank of the other school. Interesting. Um, 16,000. We do one more blade and then we hit next. That's what we do. Zero damage. Get wrecked. Get absolutely destroyed. Absolutely destroyed. Back to basics. No, quake. I should have hit last round. I really should have. I'm like he can't earthquake. It's fine, but he can. Alas, the quake charm can earthquake. Who would have thought? So sad. Who would have thought? Who would have seen that coming? Not me, obviously. Obviously not me. Uh, it's okay. We'll go for a shipper pulls next. As long as we don't use two of our death pips, which I think we might have. Okay, we didn't. We've still got two death pips. Lovely. Love lap. We've killed the minion, which is great. You've done absolutely no damage on the other guys. Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. We're going to get a blizzard. A blizzard. Is that what you're going to do? Ah, meteor. Okay, that makes sense. Meth and fire, that's right. That's right. A yarn copied as a yarn retained. Oh. Dun, dun, dun, dun. We'll do this. Get some more damage. We're going to need a reshuffle. Should probably change my pips to, uh, balance in a sec. Or we could just simply go for a Grimraider on someone and then reshuffle. Actually probably more likely a good idea. That's more likely a good idea. We'll do that. We will do that. Ka-blam. 3, 2, 8, 4. Not too bad. Not too bad. Nearly killed the minion, which is good. I feel like if we get out, um, I don't know how we get out first. If we want to get out Quake Chummer, so no more earthquakes, or if we want to get Copycat out. I feel like if we get out Quake Chummer, that'll be better. So we'll go for a Grimraider on Quake Chummer in a sec. Feel the curse of design control. Oh my gosh, a veg entrolling me.   So sad. Shulshad. Okay, um, going to change to balance. And hopefully we get some balance pips coming. We only need two to reshuffle, but we're going to go for a, um, Grim first. Don't Quake Chummer. Fire off. Fun. And freeze ray. Okay. This is bad. That means we're going to get a, a UR myth as well. We're going to get the, um, what's the myth spell? Barbarian Saga, that's right. That's right. Barbarian Saga, which honestly should be the balance spell, in my opinion. Wait, when did that do that? I thought it was just a single weird, weird. Back to basics. Don't worry. I'm already at the basics. I have nothing. I have nothing. Ha ha. They have shields now. That's really uncool. Really uncool and not great. Okay, one more round. Then we'll go for a Grim Reader on Quake Chummer. Get him destroyed. And then we'll, uh, reshuffle blade a few times and get, um, a Scarecrow for the other two. And hopefully that should kill. Hopefully. Blam 352. Okie dokie. Fire from above. Okie dokie. This is the old fire from above or the new one with the big dot? I think this might be the new one with the big dot. And this set change with Madden Test Drum, which it could have been. But after these spells, that's the new one. Okay, cool. Okie dokie. Right, this may not actually kill. We'll see how much this does. We'll see how much this does. And we just need to get two balance pits. And we can do good. We can do good things. Oh, so many dots. Holy moly. Holy moly, me oh my. That myth one's probably going to do a lot when it explodes. Right, crit. 8%, not too bad. Not too bad. He's still going to have some resist. Ho ho ho ho, yes. We killed it. Oh, miss faint. Love to see it. Thank you, game. Thank you, Pete. Appreciate you. Appreciate you. You used all the Storm Ward. That's fine from this minion. That's perfectly fine. Easy. Are you going to do another spell as well? Does that work? Is that how it works? No, it isn't. A yarn copy. It is a yarn retained. Okay. We will pass. And maybe next round, or the round after, we'll be able to reshuffle, which is cool. We'll blade up a bit, then hit into a scarecrow.  Don't know if it will kill the boss though. We are actually slowly dying, so we do need to focus on finding a solution to the problem, which is death. Uh oh. It's not good. Not good. Not very good. Okay, another one of those. Actually, that doesn't do too much damage. Doesn't do too much damage there. Didn't get a balance, but unlucky. We get one this round though. Okay, we're half health. Not great. Not great. It's fine. This is a blade. This is a blade. We do have a 70% trap on, so 70 or 75. 75 even better. So maybe just a double-bladed scarecrow would kill. As long as we get copycat out, we can focus on the other elemental if we have to. I feel like a double-bladed scarecrow is probably going to work. Probably going to work. Pizzle. Unlucky. Imagine fizzling. Imagine fizzling. Okay, blade number one. Right, blade. Loofley. This is, of course, yep. We're getting a uh, authorised as well. Authorised as well. Fun. Remove the stun block. Of course. Of course. Right. Kidducky. Authorised. Boom. Easy peasy. And that's a crit. Fun. Fun crits. Fun crits all around. Gin. E. Freight. Yikes. Minus 40. Gotta clear that one off. That's for sure. Stop summoning things. Oh my gosh. What is it with you and summoning things? I don't get it. Oh, a spiritual one finally. Finally, a spiritual one. Uh, we have to clear that. So, what we'll do is we'll blade, then we'll clear that next and then we'll hit and hopefully kill. I feel like we just need two blades. So, we'll see what happens. This is a weakness. Okay, no, it's not a weakness. That's good. That is good. Is good. Um, okay. Clear off this. Clear off this real fast. Then next round we'll hit, hopefully. We do go first, so if anything does happen, we can kind of deal with it a little bit. Kind of deal with it a little bit. Okay, that's fine. That's whatever. That's whatever. This is also whatever. This is also whatever. Okay, we're really dying though. We have to hit now. Have to hit now. Desperately have to hit because we are dying. Absolutely dying. I should also change my death as well. Whoopsies. Woopsie doopsie. Crit blade. Blade. And hopefully, she blocked. Unlucky. Of course she would block. Right, one of them are down. Hopefully all of the minions are dead. The death one may not be. Okay, the death one is good. It's just me and the boss. Me versus the boss. We can go for a Grim Reader in a bit, and that should hopefully kill. We're going to switch to Death Pips. She's probably going to summon another one in like this round or next round. Probably next round, I would say. Come on, hit already. We get it. You're angry at me. We get it. You're angry. Oh my gosh. Change to Death. Two, four, five. Okay, we're going to hit with a Ship of Fools with a Frenzy. We get Death Pip next. Hopefully, that kills the minion. Otherwise, we slightly screwed here. Slightly screwed. It's good that we have that. 3,000. I don't know if this does 3,000. We'll find out. We will find out. Slightly worried. Slightly worried. Please. No. Boss is still alive. And going to summon something else. No. This is actually really bad. Really, really bad. Geez. I think the boss summons everything, something every three rounds. Thank you. So, this is round two. So, next round, it's summoning something. And I don't think we have enough to kill. Four, five, six, seven. Yeah, no. We're one short of killing. Next round. We might need to summon a Hingeman just to bend us off. Because I'm pretty sure at the end of this round, she's summoning something. She's not. Oh my gosh. That was lucky. That was really lucky. Really, really, really lucky there. Really, really lucky. Crazy. Ka-blam. GG. We did it. Oh my gosh. Try again. Eh, they didn't like working with us in the first place. And I don't know where they have gone. That ain't good. Did they tell you what they was planning? Silence, bedraggle jigger. We are arresting you both and taking you away. Take them away. Wizard. Citizen Rockcopiel sent us to find you. Go to her at once. Alley! This would be the last bit for sure. 100% nothing more. Wizard. Magnifique. Look. This street runs slimy with Valencian snapper, and you arrested the Cabal leaders. Manticore? No, no. No Manticore here. Only Pingo Heans. The Cabalists are in the Bastille if you wish to interrogate them about this. But look. Fish. And the tail. Say, Magnifique. This design can truly make anything. Think of the possibilities. First, Valencian snapper. Next, Marley Bonnie and Tea. Caramel, artisanal chocolate. And it is all free. Not one cent do we have to pay to those greedy merchants. I must make a list. Where is that useless mousse? Standing right here. Never mind. I'll write better without him. Alley, Alley, you have a Bastille to visit. Return to me when you are done. We have much to demand. Okay. That is where we're going to end off for today. Thank you for watching. Hope you enjoyed. I'll be live in an hour or two. Probably two, maybe. So yeah. Thank you for watching. Hope you enjoyed. Smash like, subscribe. And as always, remember to craft outside the box.
