Hello, and welcome to the DesiQuest. It definitely feels a little surreal to be saying that since this show has been three years in the making and it's probably longer in the wanting and we're only here, and this is only real because of your support. Apparently, you wanted to see this show as badly as I wanted to make it. And I'm so excited for you to see what you've helped create. I hope you'll join me in diving into Vehaar head first with my players. Because every corner of this world has been crafted with love. I'm very proud of being Punjabi. I'm proud of having spent half my life there, and I'm so excited that I get to marry two of my favorite things, my Punjabi roots, and tabletop RPG. And my hope is that if you're new here, maybe you'll learn a little bit about me and where I come from. And if you're just feeling a little disconnected from your roots, Well, welcome home. This adventure is gonna have all of the bells and whistles. There will be blood, action, adventure, romance. And if I've done my job as a proper DM, a few tears as well. So join us at the table, which we're naming the Kohinoor. And more importantly, welcome to DesiQuest. Welcome to the table players. Our beautiful diamond table, we've got our players more valuable than diamond I'm so excited to play this game with you. Stop.
Omar Najam/Murkha:Two diamonds.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Okay. Two diamonds. Make my own crown out
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Are you ready to play some d and
Omar Najam/Murkha:Yeah.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Welcome. To Veharr. We open on a bustling station full of commerce. The air is thick with all kinds of scents. You smell spices, arcane components, cow dung. Just about everything you can imagine. But more than anything, sh. You smell a piece of home. A piece of a home you didn't know you had. As you step off the boat, pondering the large airship docked just above you with a massive balloon holding aloft, the Sky Haveli. With a beautiful brand new paint job yet to be christened with its very first voyage. You wonder how quickly it could have carried you across the ocean? Unfortunately, Such pursuits are out of your economic range. Let you ponder the leaky boat, the leaky tub from the developing nation you're from that brought you here, and you take in your very first Veharian scene. Can you describe to us? What sh looks like.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:He's in later h because he's from a sort of Germanic inspired, Elfin inhabited area. Generally, he looks like a tourist. I mean, even though he is technically Vahari in his background. They can tell. He's nonresident. Let's just put it that way. So, yeah, he's got his clerics chain mail male kind of underneath a pretty dotti vestment. And, yeah, he's rocking his his bl al that he's chomping on. And you'll notice that he's not eating it from his hands. His tail is feeding him his Pretzel because he's from Bradstone Worl, which is which is the land of pretzels. Yes.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Does it look something like this?
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:There's poonch - my tail. Isn't it so sweet?
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:And that means tail.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Yeah in Hindi. It means
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:tail. Yes.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:It means tail.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:That's cute.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:It's pretty it's pretty adorable. Look at the handsome little fella. Okay. You've heard that there is an uncles brother's cousin friend who was supposed to meet you here on the platform. Yes. As you gaze around, you see crates of spices, leather, fabric, spell casting components, being like sort of trucked around, letting off little thin plumes of smoke as they do so. You smell a faint ammonia smell from a gentleman next to you, a a tiefling with Buffalo horns as he kind of gruffly nudges you out of the way. Pulling or pushing and rolling, I should say, a barrel ahead of him.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:Oh, excuse me. I was in the way of the barrel, so I'm so sorry. Okay.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Good times. That's culture.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:And he continues rolling the barrel. People pushing past each other to go about their business, throngs of humanity, giving you side long looks not necessarily because of the way that you're dressed, but mostly because you are standing very much in the way. Give me a perception check. Okay. No pressure. You're just setting the, you know the tone for this entire campaign.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:I am plus seven. And I wanna you know, I gotta use the real
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:dice for
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:your first role. Come on. And my cute little dice tower. How did you go? What'd you get? Okay. A six plus seven Mhmm. Thirteen.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:You notice not the description of your uncles, brother, friends, cousins. The details get fuzzy. Yeah. You don't notice anyone of that description on the platform, but you do notice a small goblin with a bushy tom selick mustache, long hair, A smart little like conductor style hat, green clothes, and a long woven shawl wrapped unceremoniously around his neck. He comes over and he goes, "Yeah. I take luggage. Yeah." And he just starts calmly grabbing your luggage and stacking it up. Okay.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:I assume this is your licensed for this, I imagine.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:That could actually be considered offensive to us.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:He looks up and he says, "yeah, license. Yeah.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:Okay, great. Yeah. Take everything.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Here you go. He takes all of it, stacks it up high on his shoulders, and on his head. Taking a couple of your suitcases, holding them in his hands, and he wanders into the crowd.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:Okay. So I start chasing after him.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Mhmm.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Yeah. Give me a athletics check.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:Okay. Come on, poonch. Let's do this. A nineteen.
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:A nineteen. Yeah.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:You're able to push your way past all of the moving people and you manage to find the small goblin again. Still walk ing just kind of at a determined clip with your luggage.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:Okay. Excuse me. I I assume you know my cousin's brother's uncle's son. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Great. And you know his name. Right? Yeah. What's his name?
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Beta. Beta.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:That's so cool. That's what my mom calls me too. What a coincidence. Yeah. Yeah. They did say there's there's beta. A sweet beta. Yeah. Okay. Alright. Continuing to trust you. Let's go to him.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Meanwhile, on the other side of the platform, a covered cart pulls up outside. Led by two very large, very woolly, cloven, hoved animals were somewhat resembling water buffalo, but with a thick curly mat of hair kind of falling over the eyes. You recognize these beasts auntie, because this is your friend, Balwinder's cart. I shouldn't say friend, maybe nephew. Yes. He's much younger, I think. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. He's he's a he's a young gentleman married now, unlike when you first met him.
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:Yeah. Yeah.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:To a lovely girl who makes perfectly round rotis.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Oh, you know. Oh, cool. Sorry. I couldn't resist. It just came out.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Yeah.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Yeah. You've you are rather fond of her of her chai making skills. Hey, well, Jackpot. Yeah. You get along very well. She knows all the town's gossip. You've heard that your friend, Murkha, is receiving someone at the station today and needs a rather large vessel with in which to cart all of their luggage. Mhmm. And so, of course, you know, Balwinder they're sitting unceremoniously in the in the driver's seat, would be more than happy to bring you. He steadies both of the beasts. And since like I said, you know them, Sandalwood and Elaichi.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Delicious scents. Yeah.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Mhmm. And the beasts themselves actually do smell pretty good, as good as a beast of burden can smell. They have large gentle eyes and three tails that swish restlessly. They're double sets of horns kind of shaking impatiently. You're sitting here with Sitara and waiting for this man to come out as well as Murkha. We'll start with Sitara. Sitara, what do you look like?
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Sitara is a very bold looking woman. There's nothing small about her appearance. She's Big hair, big makeup eyes, colorful flowers around her hair. She's wearing a beautiful sort of like a mixture of fabrics wrapped around her in a vaguely similar to Dhoti pants.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:You know?
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:This is similar like, pulled up pair of pants, so they're practical, but gorgeous. And sitting next to her is her companion, a trusty trusty companion, Chhotu. The squirrel. Mhmm. The giant squirrel. Mhmm.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:And what does Chhotu like look like?
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Chhotu is about three feet long. The big bushy tail. No. This is this is accurate. National Geographic, I'm telling you. From from tip to tail. It's about three feet long. Big bushy tail, and he has multi colored fur. So there's a cobalt blue and a purple, a gold, a sort of marigold color and he's just sitting next to her, just keeping an eye out for things. He seems very alert, very aware, very excited that they're in the marketplace.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Does he look something like this?
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Chhotu, Arre Beta! My little okay. So so he's he theoretically, I can't think. He's he's gigantic.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:He's gigantic. This one's much
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:This is
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:This one has been reduced by us.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Yeah. This is him after he's worked out a lot. Yeah, that's him on Keto. It's exactly what I was saying.
Unknown:Yeah. It's exactly what I was saying.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:This is when he tried that Ketogenic Ketobito business. I don't think we're
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:already there.
Unknown:We're already
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:at the saying the words with another word. You sit in the in the cart. The back of it has windows that are adorned with like different colored fabrics, not unlike the ones here, sort of covering the windows. Sunlight streams in through one and outside, it is a beautiful Veharrian Day. Absolutely gorgeous. Maybe a little too hot, but you are in the coastal region. So there is a nice cool breeze kind of kicking up and coming in gently through the window. You're sitting across from
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Laddoo Auntie. Laddoo Auntie
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Laddoo Auntie is a bit of a stark contrast. To Sitara.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Yes. So firstly, Laddoo Auntie is not like the glitz and the glam. She is very much as she woke up. Like each and every day. She sleeps with a messy braid or she sleeps, you know, with her hair in, like, kind of a little thin towel. And then she puts it into a messy braid in the morning. She wears one of, like, two saris that are one thousand years old. She doesn't wish to buy anything new. She wears the oldest sandals in the entire world, and she'll hit you with one if you're annoying. She has had the same gold jewelry on that she seemingly never takes off just like a ring that is basically cemented to her finger, a bangle that is cemented there. She always is kind of looking out for a bit to be careful. No. No. No.
Omar Najam/Murkha:No.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:No. No. No. Looking out and
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:trying to to parent to mother from afar and from inches away.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Amazing. Yes. Rekha. Yes. Do you know how to roll a d one hundred? I literally thought
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:you were joking when you said that was a thing. We're gonna learn today.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Okay.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:We're gonna learn today.
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:What the
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:hell? So we I do I do an old school style. You have two dice. You have one that it's has, like, double digits. Oh,
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:I've seen those. I guess.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:That's what this was. No. That's what that was. I was like, these are stupid. Yeah. And then you have another that has single digits on it.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Yeah. That's similar looking.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Yeah. That's very similar looking.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:Yeah. It's
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Im joyful right now.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:The one with the zeros represents the sort of tens place. These are what we call, like, percent die.
Unknown:Can I
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:tell you what I thought you were gonna pull out?
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:What? I was like, if someone thought a hundred sided die, I'm gonna throw up. That's gonna
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:look so fucking crazy. Yeah. Give me a roll.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Thirty two. You are thirty two minutes late. I learned that you're gonna say "years old. I'm like, no, I'm not. You you were supposed to be here thirty two minutes ago.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Okay. And I will say, Laddoo Auntie, does not notice that. Even if it is true, IST.
Unknown:Yeah.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:She's like, I was on time. Yeah. Yeah.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Despite anyone that was hurrying her out the door, Arre wait. Arre wait.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:So, you know, Murkha, you probably realized that poor Ash has either been waiting for some time. Probably a little bit confused on the platform. But Auntie doesn't care.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:There she is Laddoo Auntie.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Break her right in half
Unknown:having
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:And she has a ladle.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Oh. Yeah. For those who don't know, a laddoo is like a little sweet kind of thing that you eat.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:It's very delicious treat.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:And yeah. This is an auntie that's known for making them, you know.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:M urkha It occurs to you that your uncle's cousin's brother's friends, sisters, brother, nephew
Unknown:Mhmm.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Is probably a little confused inside. You you noticed that there is like a rush of humanity coming out of the door as this boat has like, a few boats I should say, their entire passenger load has disembarked at once. Got it. Sending, like I said, a rush of tieflings, dwarves, humans, all types of people into the streets. You don't immediately see a person of the description matching Ash.
Omar Najam/Murkha:Okay. So I and I'm like standing at, like, the harbor where, like, the boats are pulling up.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:You're sitting outside the station that is erected around the harbor. There is this massive marble structure.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Uh-huh.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:You are in the capital city of Sarpani, Chand Bay. Chand Bay is a place full of Commerce. IT IS HOME TO THE BIGGEST PORT. IT'S actually quite a bit away from your hometown or where you're stationed in Diwaney. Mhmm. But, you know, it's it's a it's a beautiful city. How many times have you been here? Would you say?
Omar Najam/Murkha:Oh, I've been here at least ten times.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:At least ten times. At least
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:ten times.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Yeah. You know your way around Chand Bay, but you also know there are a lot of people in Chand Bay. The city's stretches across a bunch of isles kind of dotting this somewhat of a flood plain region.
Unknown:Mhmm.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:The air is salty and sweet and you hear the call of beautiful multicolored birds and cranes as they soar over your head. They distract you for a moment before you realize why you're here as very brusquely A few people kind of push past you as you're standing outside the cart. Balwinder a dwarf with a turban and a walking stick kind of like smacks the side of the cart and says to you.
Omar Najam/Murkha:I need you
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Your friend, where is your
Omar Najam/Murkha:Oh, yeah. The yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I've just gotta go pick up my my cousin. Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. How much do I owe you?
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:I don't it's it's free.
Omar Najam/Murkha:I'll pull out like a a a stack of cash and just like hand it over.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:He slaps you.
Omar Najam/Murkha:is that an attack? Because I have a reaction. my so I have, like, a a, like, a large, like, very heavy, like, cloak, essentially. And it just looks like a huge, just like chunk of fabric. It's very pronounced. But as that slap goes through, there are intricately within the sleeves a ton of electronics that I've built in. Mhmm. That sort of fire up as a reaction in I cast Shield. Bringing my AC up to twenty.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Yeah. The bounce lapsed harmlessly against your shield, but it was really more like as the sentiment
Unknown:Yeah.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:That because she's like Yeah.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:Yeah. Yeah.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Because he's like, what are you doing?
Omar Najam/Murkha:Right.

Omar Najam/Murkha:Yeah. I I appreciate that. And every time I hear it, I just
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:wanna pay you more.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:This isn't a ride share
Omar Najam/Murkha:No. I understand that.
Omar Najam/Murkha:I just wanna thank you for your services.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Your your friend
Omar Najam/Murkha:Uh-huh. Well, yeah. Though my na
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:think he's gonna be scared confused alone, doesn't speak the language, and he's lat
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:Anyou know, th1irty or two, and willfully gets
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:some informatio
Omar Najam/Murkha:He's late.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Roll me a d4 to see who caused the lateness.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:I do think it was our fault, but two.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Clearly, of course it was my fault. Everyone can wait. You can't really just look like this all the time. It requires work. It requires training. It requires a certain hand. You know? People will wait. So you're friends.
Omar Najam/Murkha:Yeah. That's right. Okay. Baccha let's go. And his Murkha's little buddy pops up and it's a a it's like a robotic servant, but, like, It's my friend. Mhmm. And it's like a mechanical red panda that can fly. So little jets kinda fire up. As we kind of jump out of the wagon together.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Yeah. This creeping monstrosity of metal and steam and creaking bones, dripping a little bit of oil out of the elbow comes out and goes, bam,
Omar Najam/Murkha:let's go bunch up. Cello.

Omar Najam/Murkha:I am Merca. I am a stout gentleman in the big coat chuffles. I have very, like, jovial facial features, but one of my eyes is just like this piercing darting artifact that is constantly just analyzing everything and seems to be doing like mathematics on my own recently. The other eye is covered by an eye patch. Most of that is cartened with salt and peppered hair and I have a great big bushy beard. That I think sort of, like, speaks for the personality of Merka before he even opens his mouth.

Sandeep Parikh/Ash:So pretty.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Through time and space, everything seems to stop and you are enveloped in a warmth. Steam fills your vision. You can feel the warmth and the humidity around you, not hot enough to burn you, but just enough to make you feel cozy. Maybe a little uncomfortably cozy. And as the steam clears, Anjali. No. No. No.
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:No. Who have you
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:joined me in the tea kettle? You are in a heavily curtains space. The walls are draped with thick valvets and brocade that seemed completely muffled the outside world.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:My daughter was getting up by this guy. My daughter was getting up
Unknown:by this guy. My daughter
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:was getting up by this guy.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:You cannot discern the shape of the vessel that you are in. And indeed, there are lanterns hanging from a fabric colored ceiling. At one point, this may have been a tea shop, but now it's more of a tea lounge as the counter has a thick film of dust on it, as though it has not been used in a very long time.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Hey. But just be quiet. You're too loud. For damage. I've tried to have a got the patient in a different dimension here. Jesus.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Anjali can't hear herself. Okay. There's a thick film of dust on the counter as business hasn't been conducted here in a long time. There are numerous vessels sort of piled up high on the shelves and tending bar somewhat is an entity. An entity that you may have heard of with how high your role was, but not in a very long time. Truly, you thought maybe she was a thing of myth or legend. She stands here. Her skin is sort of deep purple color her hair flowing out with a bun on top and her eyes. Her eyes are what really gets you. They're lavender, but they bubble like like a pot of tea about to come to a boil. She comes to you with two cups of tea They smell nutty and spicy. And in fact, you get a little whiff of cashew as you inhale. Welcome.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Sorry. Bottoms up. Oh, wait. Oh, that's good. I try so about this. I wasn't here. Now I'm here. Could you
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Oh, you asked for a boom.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:I did ask for a boom. You're right. I did ask for a boone. The thingies,
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:are you in distress?
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:It's not good for a moment. I I've In general, well, Part of me is, is it possible to say, find out what kinds of boons you best do and then I can see that for later. Yes. You know, like like if I were to put this chai in a travel cup and carry it away with just a little bit of metal on the top, you know, like metal and then, Of course, you know. I'm sorry. You're a very intelligent being. The thing is, yes, I'm impersonal distress, but nobody knows it tonight, draw the wait to see if I needed more later.
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:Technically, these are expired. Oh.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:I don't really metal in the affairs of your realm anymore.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:I see.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:You do have the card. It would be strange not to honor it. But I guess you have to know what you're getting into.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Oh, yes.
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:Okay. So then
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:maybe a sample. Oh.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Before, I've I've been so rude. I'm sick that. Perhaps you've heard of me. I have now. Okay. It must not be a film time.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:I don't think they were around when I was so active.
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:I'm aware of the concept.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:But the films I watch are a little bit more rooted in reality. Oh.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:That sounds awful. I'm so sorry. Oh, it's rather entertaining.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:And as she speaks to you, her hair kind of like comes alive. The navy curls and coils kind of naturally refilling your tea cup. Adding sugar stirring for you as the different tendrils kind of come out and start to whisk away dishes, unneeded. And put out a tray of snacks for
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:you. This is this is incredible. My auntie would love to have you over.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Make a persuasion check.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Twenty. She's the sweetest, honestly.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:I should very much like to meet her. I could come with me. Maybe I can accept two clients this time. Oh, you mean
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:you mean you would bring her here. She said she doesn't travel well. She has some earks in her back and her knees and she's a little bit slow. So maybe we could go to her.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Normally, oh, coming here exacts the cost. Uh-oh. Normally, I would have to mark your card. But We agreed in light of recent events. I can forgo this cost, and I can help you.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Could you?
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:Oh, yes. Yes. Sadara, it's time we talk about your parents.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:What about my parents? They would they're no longer with us. I I miss women.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:No. I guess they're not with you, but they're alive.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:No. They died in a they died in a terrible accident.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Is that what they told you?
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:That's what everyone that. Oh, decent.
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:Well, that's a cruel lie to tell someone.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:What are they? In a place you can't get to them. Why? They're sealed away. But, Zandalari, I think deep down, You always knew that. You're different. You have one foot in two worlds. And you feel like you belong in ether, but you belong in both.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:So I I gotta get to them.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Right now, you can't. But maybe if we continue to work together, I can fix this problem for you.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:I would love that. Ever since they've been gone when life has been awful. No one knows. I keep up the appearances as as I'm supposed to and I wave and I sing and I dance and I married the whole thing. It wasn't supposed to be this week.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Your husband, he distresses you?
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Not not exactly. It's a very powerful man. You know, he has so many connections and
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:his power means nothing to me.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:All his power means something to me. You know, or maybe you don't. I'm I'm not the youngest girl in the film industry yet.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:You're not the youngest.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:No. But sometimes you need a little help in your career to to keep things going and forgive us kind and took care of me when my heart was broken for my parents. He I don't know if he loves me. But it takes care of me when he's allowed. May I speak freely?
Sandeep Parikh/Ash:Of course.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:I think you can take care of yourself and what you need someone who loves you.
Rekha Shankar/Laddoo Auntie:I'm gonna make
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:a deal with you, Sitara. Okay. Because I feel like you need my help and I rather like you.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:I'm listening.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Roll another d twenty. Oh,
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:It was so good the first time. That's an eight. Mhmm.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Hey. Interesting. Well,
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:I'll tell you
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:what. You do something for me. And Maybe along the lines, I can help you with your Rocky platform.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:No. Sorry. I shouldn't ask so much. I know. I know. I know. What would you like me to do for you?
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:I want you to look into something for me.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Look into what?
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:The people of this region, they used to they used to celebrate me in a way and ask for good harvest.
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:They've fallen on hard times.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Yes. I think maybe you could use your fame and your influence. To find a way to help them,
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:to help them to you, or to help them, help them.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Help them in general. Well, of course,
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:I could do that.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:Do you like helping people? Are you a good person or a
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:bad one? Well, that's a strange question.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:I you see, I've been trying to figure out if people are good or bad. Mhmm.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:People in general have been
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:trying to weigh it. On one side, you have
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:people that are rocky. Rocks are very heavy.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:They sometimes bring the scales a little down.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:I think. That no one isn't entirely bad. Even people with bad intentions end up doing good things by mistakes sometimes, which could probably lift up a little bit of flocking. And those should do good things. Well, they do them out of the kindness of their heart. They do them for no other reason than but to take care of others, and I think that should outweigh any bad than anyone does. That's what I think, and that's how I live my life.
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:You've amused me today, Sadara.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:I hope to see you again.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:I hope to see you too. May I ask young's name?
Jasmine Bhullar/Noorin:Sometimes I forget, it's been a long time, but
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:that's right. They used to call me Nourdin.
Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:Now, that's a beautiful name.
Jasmine Bhullar/GM:So is Sadara. And she evaporates falling down into plumes of thick steam. And as the steam clears, You find yourself back in the world of the living with your card unpunch.

Anjali Bhimani/Sitara:I just turned around, show to come. And I walk towards the carriage, and I'm a little bit in the days. And normally, you see, she's bright, her face is lifted, she's carrying herself with grace and ease. And somehow, now, it's not just that she looks a little bit like laser focused even though she's not paying attention to anything around her, but it seems like all of her features have hardened a little bit. She's a little bit more angular. I seem a little darker. Everything about her just seems a little more pointed.
