With the funeral behind them, now our heroes can get back to work on hunting down this Chosen and -- wait, where's Moondrop? Oh, Gods, not again. Worry not, however, fair listeners. This troupe of heroes is definitely the team to call on when your friendly neighborhood dragon child shows up. Definitely won't get sidetracked whatsoever.

After being trapped in a hellish limbo by forces not of their world, our heroes are back at it. To get back into the swing of things, the group decides to do what they're just the absolute worst at, navigating politics and researching their deepest fears. Which of Sebastian's childhood acquaintances will turn out to be horrible kin-slayers next? Is Robin hiding something from the rest of the team? Will Uthoian be torn asunder by a horde of devilish fairies? The answers are a mystery to...

1985, Maine. "According to police, inroads are still being made into the case of four murdered teens from the small town of Mason's Bay. Witnesses have reported increased police activity in an apparent cavern system beneath the scene of the crime, and just last night gunshots were reported from the area. An anonymous source has informed us that in addition to federal support, two locals are also involved in the case, one child reporter and an herbalist from the area. It is as of now unknown...

1985, Maine. This just in, the small town of Mason's Bay mourns today after police discovered the bodies of four teens murdered in a house on the edge of town. Reports indicate that the FBI has taken an interest in the investigation. While details are being withheld for the time being, citizens are encouraged to report any information they may have to the Mason's Bay Sheriff's Department. We'll keep you up to date on developments as they arrive. DM: Patrick Flood (@uninvitedhaggis, Our...

With the connection to the goddess Juliet all but severed and possible further danger on the horizon, our heroes must ride once more unto the breach. As the princess sends them on a special mission, will they be able to stay the course and find the next Chosen? Or, perhaps, will they all get eaten by fairies? I'm betting on the latter. You guys seen Hellboy 2? Those fairies can be real nasty. DM: Kristen Ippolito Players: Patrick Flood Jack Manning Jess Juan-Aquino Theme Song is...

As our heroes head towards the forest island of Arden, we take a look back at the past of one in particular, Uthoian Darksbane, and how he came to be acquanted with the magical isle. Join us as we experience Yu's childhood, diving into his relationship with the Orobek siblings, Portia and Bassanio, and how he happened to screw everything up, even at such a young age. Par for the course honestly. Get ready folks, it's about to get real Bridge-To-Terabithia-y in here. DM: Kristen...

Now, with the festival day of the Goddess Rosalind upon them, our heroes are trying to piece together the danger that faces the Capitol. Surely, all is doomed if they can't figure out the arcane trickery at hand. Or they're a bunch of worry-worts who should honestly take a chill pill. Stick around after this episode for a special post credits scene! That's right, we're going MCU in this place. Cover art credit: Vincent Marcellino, @VincenzoNova on twitter, instagram.

Enjoying their time off from any major crises in the land of Ordamar, the party continues to go about their own business, cavorting with love interests, or spending time with family, or, in some cases, spending a night wandering through the woods in search of a bunch of elves. As tensions fall, things start to come out. But will all these revelations create even more problems, or is there something else afoot behind the scenes? DM: Kristen Ippolito Players: Patrick Flood Jess...

Welcome back, friends, to the world of Lunamar. With Morden now safe and another apocalypse averted, we rejoin our heroes as they return to the Capital to meet with the Princess and find their next course of action. That is, of course, if they have a course of action to follow. This week, our heroes meet with some friends and, well, honestly, dredge up some serious relationship memories. The ships are a'sailing, folks, all aboard. DM: Kristen Ippolito Players: Jack Manning Jess...

With the Frost Dragon Lumicke banished, and the dire conspirators defeated, all that is left for our heroes is to tie up loose ends and set sail back for the Capital. Of course, that's if they can actually figure out the reason they were sent to Morden in the first place. Can they figure it out? Can they track down the rest of Robin's family? Will they be smote by an angry deity? Can Kristen possibly manage to get this troupe of fools back on track? We'll have to see. DM: Kristen...

The tides of fate close in on our heroes as Morden's ancient prophecy comes into fruition. As Robin tries to escape from her family's estate, and Sebastian and Uthoian trudge through the forest in the dead of Summer-Winter, they must reunite to pose any chance of preventing the Ice-pocalypse. What killed the Dinosaurs? Let's find out. DM: Kristen Ippolito Players: Patrick Flood Jack Manning Jess Juan-Aquino

With Robin locked away in jail, and the deadline for the snow-pocalypse approaching rapidly, the team is once again left chasing after possible leads to help them regroup. However, as our heroes search for a way to circumvent prophecy, sinister machinations work against them, and they've got a hell of a fight before them. Also Robin definitely has a deathwish. Like, Anakin Skywalker levels of hubris going on here. DM Kristen Ippolito Players Patrick Flood Jess Juan-Aquino Jack...

With our Heroes within the Hawksworth Manor, can they uncover what affliction faces Robin's former ward? To be honest, yeah, probably. Whether they can treat that ailment is an entirely different question. The only other thing that is sure is that they will absolutely bungle something simple and make their lives a hundred times more difficult than necessary, but I have faith they'll push through. GM: Kristen Ippolito Players: Jack Manning Jess Juan-Aquino Patrick Flood

As our heroes try to unravel the mystery behind Morden's untimely winter storms, Robin's past, and the mysterious sickness, further dangers conspire against them. How much more awaits? Gargoyles? Ghosts? More harmonica music? The very thought terrifies... DM: Kristen Ippolito Players: Jack Manning Jess Juan-Aquino Patrick Flood

Robin is home again. She's got a long history here, almost none of which is known with her companions. So what happened all those years ago? What forged our friendly bard? What is her connection to the mysterious criminal group in Morden? Why, for the love of all the Gods, does she have such an affinity for bluegrass? Together, let's find out. _________________ This is the first of our single character episodes exploring the backstories of our cast. DM: Kristen Ippolito Player: Jess...

Our heroes finally make their way to the city of Morden, but something awaits there they are not prepared for. As nature turns against them and prophecy heads toward fruition, Robin must face an aspect of her past she had left behind long ago. Who is a friend? Who is a foe? Who will sleep in the giant heart shaped bed in the inn? Questions arise once more in this latest episode. Also, stick around after the end for a special new segment!

After arriving back in the Capitol of Ordamar, the team is pleased to be above ground for some R&R. However, the world ending conspiracy stops for no one, and soon the Princess will call upon them with yet another quest. In the meantime, our heroes must come together and deal with perhaps the most terrible foe they've ever faced. An Evening at Toby's Tavern. DM: Kristen Ippolito Players: Jess Juan-Aquino Jack Manning Patrick Flood

With the ordeal of the dwarven caverns done with, our heroes have finally emerged into the city of the Battlehammer clan. It's all mead and sausages from here on out, team. Definitely nothing lying ahead that could put us in any harm, so this will be a chill day. What do you mean "the title"? I guess you'll just have to listen to see! GM: Kristen Ippolito Players: Jack Manning Jess Juan-Aquino Patrick Flood

It seems like our heroes are almost through the dungeon, but a few dangers are still looming. With puzzles, battles, and parenting difficulties in their way, will our lovable band be able to push through the final run to the dwarven city? Oh, the parenting difficulties? Yeah, didn't you know this is a parenting podcast now? We may just end up changing our name to "What to Expect When You're Expecting Your Child to Turn Into a Giant Wyrm". Maybe not, it doesn't roll off the tongue too well....
