Greetings true friends and welcome back to good old Hellas.
Now we are in the middle of a quest and yeah, we're just picking up where we left off last time.
And I have two things to say before I delve into the episode.
Just gonna admire this statue while I talk.
Fucking juicy.
So I don't know if my voice sounds a bit dodgy, but I was actually struck down by the tender caress of Grandfather Nurgle and I got a sickness.
It only lasted one day though, so that was really nice.
But I'm well again now, but if my sound if my voice sounds a bit off, that is the reason.
But anyway, I'm well now.
The second thing I wanted to say is that I got corrected by a true friend in the comments section last episode because I said that Alexander united the Greeks and that is not absolutely correct.
It was actually his father Philip who united the Greeks.
But when Philip, his father, was assassinated, several of the Greek city-states rose up in rebellion against the newly formed alliance.
So therefore Alexander had to go down to the Greek city-states again to in a show of power to get them back in line, so to speak.
So yeah, I just wanted to have that clarified.
Anyway, let us see what the crack is here.
Right, let's head down, shall we?
Hello.
Hello, dog.
That's a juicy doggy, if anything.
That is one nice bow.
Boom.
Nice.
Alright.
Press U to open ability menu.
Aha, we have gained a level.
Now let's see.
Bullrush.
That's the most aesthetic one.
And we have Sparta Kick.
That is also legendary.
Charged heavy attack.
Hold to charge.
We're gonna go with Bulrush now, and I suppose we can acquire the rest of the things later.
Alright, we have a assassin hunter there, and I don't want to box with him right now.
Talk to Drusilla.
Aha, that's her again.
Right, the boss guy, the big guy for you, is up there.
Are you going to get my wood?
Those fucking bandits need the thrashing.
I will stop the bandits.
I'll fix your wood problem.
Finally.
Marco Suri is lucky he's got you as a scapegoat.
Where are any idea where these bandits are?
I'm not a tracker, I'm a boyer.
They're in the mountains somewhere, that much I know.
I'd check close to the lumber camps.
I will get going.
Make sure that you do.
And be quick about it.
Have patience.
I'll deal with these bandits and get you the wood you need as fast as I can.
Have patience.
It won't take long.
Ha!
If you knew how long Marcos has been feeding me excuses, you wouldn't be saying that.
I was being respectful towards my elders there.
That's why I chose the more polite of the options.
So anyway, I think I didn't mention this, but our character here actually reminds me a bit of Gannicus in the Sparta...
No, not in the Sparta, not in the Hercules series.
The Spartacus series that I watched back in the day.
If I had watched it today, I would probably have been a bit turned off by all the degeneracy shown in it, but when I watched it back in the day at least, I thought it was highly testosteronous.
So anyway, this guy looks a bit like Ganicus in the series.
Right, investigation area.
Let's see what we have here.
Alright.
Here we have something interesting.
interact the cart was emptied then left behind the thief can't have gotten far with that much cargo that is true Maybe we have to talk with some of these guys.
No.
Ah, there we are.
Interact shot in the back while fleeing must be the work and it's okay He's dead.
Let us call our trusted ziggle.
That must be the bandit coming soon.
It went well.
Okay, cool.
Now we will actually illuminate this bustage to the primordial truth.
The primordial truth of violence.
Oh, great.
Wolf.
Oh, poor Wolf.
But he had to die.
There was no other choice.
Aha, more wolves.
Let's charge him.
Uh-huh.
There you go.
I am...
I'm sorry, Wolf.
So anyway, I hope you all enjoyed the Dacian Wolf Cult video I made.
It was quite nice to make it.
Oh, damn.
I need to concentrate while I illuminate this wolf.
There we are.
Um...
Yeah, it was a nice video to make.
Because I actually learned something new whilst making it.
Alright, so something happened with the game there.
I don't know if it's just that my computer is a bit old or something, but I restarted the game at least.
So hopefully the rest of the recording is good.
So I got to this stage and then something happened.
Hopefully it won't happen again.
Now let's illuminate this guy.
Come on, stand still then.
There we are.
Aha, there was another one.
Sounds like a female.
Is this actually a female?
Let's investigate this immediately, because that, I would say, is a bit...
Not just a bit, it's this is a guy.
Okay, if they have female guards and stuff, that's not something I can endorse.
But something I can endorse is the amount of loot that they have here.
Hello, bruv.
Ooh, Legula's the mad cunt archery skills.
Did not have any loot for me, the bustard.
How about this, guys?
Ah, that felt bad.
I did not want to kill the dogo, but I had to.
I'm Sorodogo.
I'd better take some lumber back as proof, that old bag won't just take my word.
Aha, that might be a slave or something.
I will say a prayer for this dogo.
I'm sorry.
Oh well, we can redeem ourselves by doing something for the gods.
And what that might be is something that we will see later on.
Right, where is our trusted horse?
You cannot call Phobos from restricted areas.
Okay.
That is noted.
Then.
Ah, there he is.
We just had to get out from the bandit camp.
So, speaking of Alexander the Great, I have thought about making a little review of the film from 2004.
Because I think that is a reasonably good film.
It's a bit.
I might have mentioned this before at some stage, but it might have been some time since I did that.
And I would say that Faistion is being portrayed as a bit too gay, a bit too feminine.
After all, he was a battle-hardened general and not some sissy, to put it that way.
And I don't think the film captures that, but other than that, it's a very intense film with a lot of passion.
And yeah, it's an epic film.
Then, of course, a lot of things could be better with it, but it's hard to capture such an epic story as that of Alexander the Great.
But I will make a full review at some later point.
Hello.
Your wood should arrive in town soon.
And you expect me to believe the word of a mercenary.
She is very disrespectful.
He should be more trusting.
Alright, thank you very much for that.
Now, let us see what sort of quests we have available.
We are quests.
An eye for an eye in the footsteps of gods.
A Kefalonian priestess was desperate to find the spear of Kefalos in the hopes it would draw more people to her shrine.
Was it Kefalos then who sent Alexios to help her?
I thought we had already done this, but apparently we have not.
So I suppose we can just run up here and see what the crack is.
Greetings.
Alexios, have you come back to talk about the spear?
I have.
Oh, good.
Tell me, did you find it?
I'll give you.
What?
No reward?
Oh, Alexius, I'm in your death.
If ever there's a way my temple can help you or anyone, send them here.
I will remember.
I did it for the gods.
Oh, sorry, mate.
Sorry, mate.
But first, I need to inspect you.
Okay, he can pass for a Greek, I suppose.
No, cool.
We have leveled.
How nice.
Let us do something fun.
Alright, let's go with the Sparta kick.
Can be fun to use that.
Right, let us look at what kind of quest we can embark upon.
An eye for an eye seems like a reasonable course of action.
Talk to Marcos, but where is he?
He's up here somewhere.
So, yeah, as I said in the last episode, very mythic feel to this game.
And it's nice that it's sunny as well because I do miss the sun being in December in Sweden.
I haven't seen the sun for quite some time.
So yes, it's even though it's not quite the same, but it's still nice enough to be in this beautiful environment.
That's also something I can really appreciate with gaming.
That if you are in the need of a beauty boost, if you want to look at something beautiful, because looking at beautiful things gets you in a good mood, then gaming can be a good thing indeed.
If it's our beautiful game, that is.
Hello, Brov.
Ah, here you are, and not a moment too soon.
I've done with the bandits and gotten the wood for the Boyer.
I had every confidence in you, my friend.
Well, your plan?
Right, the Cyclops and I have a score of Drachmi to settle.
The same score as you, my rough and tumble friend.
He wouldn't be after me if it wasn't for you, my friend.
Right, but I swear, this will put an end to it.
If he insists on sending his goons after us, we'll make sure his last good day was yesterday.
Go on, let's hear it then.
What do I have to do?
What will we do, you mean?
As the brains to your brawn, I consider it a joint effort.
Of course, you do.
Think what does the Cyclops value most?
His men, his land, his ships?
No, his obsidian eye.
Get to the point, Marcos.
Oh, fine.
We're going to steal it.
Are you crazy?
You borrow his Rachme, then you steal his eye.
Having it means we win.
Then it goes to market.
We kill two birds with one obsidian eye.
He'd better hold still, or he'll lose both eyes.
No, no, it has to be done without the Cyclops knowing.
You cannot be seen.
Then my new bow will come in handy.
He keeps the eye in his house.
It's too valuable to wear out.
A wise choice until you show him the error of his ways.
Wait for the sun to set, sneak in, and then bring me the eye.
Where does the Cyclops live?
I don't know where the Cyclops lives.
Head to the west side of the island.
There, you will find his lair.
Alright, mate.
Fine, but you won't get away with being cheap.
Cheap?
You wound me, Alexios.
It's your defining trait.
Bring me the eye, and I'll prove you wrong.
Remember, not a soul can see you.
Got it.
Pull this off, and our heads won't be the Cyclops' trophies when he comes back.
Okay, let us still do if it's as valuable as Marcos says.
It'll be hidden.
Hello, Phobos, my trusted companion instead.
Fool still my head.
Or perhaps okay, that went alright.
Let us call our other trusted companion.
Hello, I. Hello, I. Right.
Okay.
Now, we need to be...
I need cover.
If I'm quiet, I can hide in the bushes.
We need to be very sneaky here.
Maybe I can.
No, I can't really.
It must be some eye to have that much protection.
I have to stay out of view.
Let's see if we can get a headshot here.
Not a one shot, one kill, but a reminder to stay hidden at least.
Aha, we can loot.
Look at a ritual maze.
Aha, a guard is there.
We'll have to be careful.
Aha, and I thought we could get in there, but that was silly of me to think such a thing.
And we have to be careful with this guy as well.
Aha, there are quite a few actually.
Hmm, I will just have to wait here.
Aha, they have a they have a doggo there as well.
And I think I actually failed this mission if I'm being sin here.
What we're going to do is we're gonna save.
Aha!
I must be in a safe area to save.
Ah, a lot of fun things to loot here.
What?
What?
The door is closed to us.
Ah, we're almost getting seen there.
Also, if I'm not that talkative now, it's because I'm trying my very hardest to be concentrated on not getting found.
Here we are.
Noise mate.
But getting out from here I think will be a bit harder.
We have two guys out there and saw us there.
Hopefully, he can come in here and I can stab him.
I can show him the error of his ways.
I don't really want to kill the dogo though.
That's um that wouldn't be glorious because I've already killed one dogo of wisdom in this episode.
Now let's ah come on There we are.
I hope he did not see us there.
I had to loot the treasure.
Now let us actually hope that we can get out from here and return to Marcos bra alright that went well enough I suppose now it's just a matter of calling our Loyal Phobos and return to Marcos
So, yeah, I think I will return to Marcos and see what he has to say.
And then I will call that an episode.
And let me know in the comments section what you have trained today or what you will train.
Or what you will train, of course.
of course.
I would rather have the comment section filled with that sort of comments rather than the typical YouTube comment section comments.
I do try to avoid having that on my channel.
But anyway, let's talk to this guy.
Hello, bruv.
You know how many of his guards were there?
All for a fucking rock.
This rock could buy a house, my friend.
And yet it's still not enough to pay back the Cyclops.
Oh, don't be upset.
Think of all the fun we've had.
You call this fun?
Right.
Your fun, my blood.
You can't keep dragging me into things, Marcos.
This will work.
I promise you.
Would I lie to you?
Don't make me answer that.
Take the eye, but don't sell it yet.
No vendor would believe we came by it lawfully.
They know exactly who it belongs to.
Fine.
Better your pocket than his socket.
I think that's enough for one day.
Here, Marcos.
Wait, I saw a boat.
One I've never seen before.
So?
The vessel's too good for this dirty town.
It must be the Cyclops, and he brought friends.
He's back?
Ah, I can never catch a break, can I?
Take them out, and that's one less thing to deal with.
Besides, these strangers look rich as Chrysos.
The Cyclops pays them well.
It's win-win, my friend.
It can't hurt.
What do I have to lose?
You?
You're a winner if I ever saw one.
Then where are they?
In an abandoned house on the eastern coast.
Who knows what golden fortunes shine in their hideout?
Send them to Hades, then loot them for all they have.
We'll be rich.
Alright, I'll go now.
I'm keeping some of these golden fortunes, though.
No negotiations.
Not even a drachme for the man who sent you?
The rest goes to pay your debt.
These are my terms.
Oh, fine, fine.
Now teach those strangers what it means to be Cephalonian, draw blood, or bleed.
Alright, awesome.
I will pick up here in the next episode.
Until then, I hope you will be well and be sure to train hard.
