Bk. 04 Ch. 64  The Way of Obligate Mortality employs several obscure, and often macabre, tactics to pursue their own goals. This is reflected in how they alter their own bodies, but the truth of how far they are willing to go remains unknown. General Nils Verages and his followers seem overly preoccupied with Darvin’s role in their plans. When Darvin, Arannis, and Finnigan finally get a chance to confront him, they may finally have a chance to discover why.   Music:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 40  Defeating just two Vestiges and eliminating the threat of the teleportation box was a draining experience. The creatures that The Looming Toom can bring to bear wield abilities more dangerous than any we have ever faced. If a single pair can be that dangerous, it's hard to imagine what will happen once The Looming Toom arrives. There's no telling how long we have until then, but now is a time for rest and reflection. And, until they arrive, there are plenty of other pressing...

Bk. 04 Ch. 39  Finnigan's escape from The Hollow took the combined efforts of the group. Witnessing first-hand even a fraction of The Looming Toom's power has left Finnigan mentally scarred. If there were any doubts as to the need to destroy the teleportation box, they have certainly been removed now. But, eliminating this threat is more dangerous than they can imagine, and Finnigan isn't the only one who can emerge from within.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 38  Lianna, the halfling god, has come to the ruins of Honey Hollow to mourn and vent her frustrations. The teleportation box provided a quick exit during the attack, but it also lead to so much loss. Arannis and Darvin played their part in the city's destruction, and Lianna is willing to give them a chance to make amends. Destroying the magic in the box shouldn't be too difficult, but even the simplest of plans can go awry.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 37  Lianna, the halfling god, mourns in the wreckage of Honey Hollow. The city was once a home for numerous orcs and halflings, but The Conscription brought their form of divine peace to the citizens in the wake of The Withering. Now, the city is all but abandoned; the empty homes and spaces a mere shadow of what they once were. As the party seeks rest, the shadows of the fallen city emerge.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 36  The journey continues as Finnigan, Darvin, and Arannis travel south into the Winter Band with their allies. The sky turns dark and the ocean branch freezes as they leave the sun behind and the temperatures drop. The last time the party was here, they were fleeing Honey Hollow in the middle of Dealing with The Conscription. And now, approaching the hollowed city, a new light appears...   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 35 Although the battle against The Tides of Fortune, the Uroleth, and the hunters is over, there are still matters to settle. Asturias Chase, the human-bear Tamani, could prove to be a valuable captive. After everything that's happened, perhaps she can provide some answers. But even if she plays along for now, deciding what to do with her in the long run could prove to be an even trickier situation.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 34 Taking the fight from the ship to the ground below, things only seem to get worse. New enemies appear from the trees and the Uroleth above proves that it is never alone in a fight. One side wants to kidnap, while the other wants to consume. Our heroes need to put it all on the line to save their friends. Even then, will it be enough to win the battle on both fronts?   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 33 Before fleeing the ship with the unconscious Captain Edmundsen, Lymmons gave the command to unleash a frightening creature. The dark, mucous-covered creature with rows of sharp teeth emerged from the ship and took to the air. It's tendrils lash out at both sides of the conflict as it looks for its next meal. The party still wants to save their friends, but they should worry about saving themselves as well.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu ...

Bk. 04 Ch. 32 -  The battle aboard The Tides of Fortune rages on as Captain Edmundsen's crew pulls out all the stops. This trespass cannot be allowed to continue, but the intruders may be too powerful to contain. Sam, Carolina, and Seth are still in danger of being taken away by the ospreys. As each side gets more desperate, the danger grows and grows until, perhaps, something even worse is unleashed.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 31 It is time to take the fight to The Tides of Fortune! Launching themselves onto the deck, the party stares down the dangerous crew. Meanwhile, swarms of ospreys carry away Sam, Carolina, and Seth. Finnigan, Arannis, and Darvin must work quickly if they are to survive aboard the ship and save all of their friends. Captain Edmundsen and his crew won't give up without a fight, and the good captain is more than prepared.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 30  The Tides of Fortune and her crew sail above on the ocean branch. Drunken and boisterous singing can be heard from crew and ship alike while canons shoot fireworks dangerously close to the party below. Captain Edmundsen, an adventurer of great renown and influential member of The Glamour, is surely here for more than just a party. His true motives, however, may not be known until it's too late.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 29 Finding a way to pass the time can be invaluable while on the road. While Rystos does need to educate Arannis and Darvin on the divine rules, even he can grow weary of that. It is far more entertaining to spend time on interactive pursuits. With no chance of collateral damage (outside of the party), the empty road makes for a fine place to get in some hands-on training.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast ...

Bk. 04 Ch. 28 As the party's time in Caravel finally comes to a close, it's time to decide what lies ahead and who will be joining us. The journey is sure to be a long one, and Rystos knows just how to pass the time: lessons! His lessons aren't just about skills but about rules as well. The gods have their own rules, but there are also some that they all stand behind.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 27 With all of the recent developments, perhaps it would be better to share knowledge. Contacting all of the gods would prove difficult, but Typh's Looking Glass provides a unique opportunity. With the ability to connect with multiple gods, it may be the groups best bet for warning the gods and asking for assistance. However, there are no guarantees that the gods will provide aid without a cost...or even come to a consensus....   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 26 It would seem that our time in Caravel is drawing to a close. Except, of course, for the unexpected reappearance of Darvin's ebony kangaroo: Pouch-It. Finding more of Ikiri within, it also seems to be growing more intelligent. Darvin must decide how to handle this situation before any final arrangements can be made to leave the city. Unless, somehow, we get distracted again...   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast ...

Bk. 04 Ch. 25 With Lynn Jarvis captured and Orizaba the Wise ruling Caravel, the party had hoped their worries were behind them. However, shortly after leaving The Contract House they overhear a pair of guards demanding tithes to the new ruler of the city: The God of Rebellion. No matter how this started, it has to be stopped. And with Lynn at their mercy, what is to be his ultimate fate?   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast ...

Bk. 04 Ch. 24 Deep in The Contract House, the party formally meets Orizaba the Wise. She has taken on an extravagant humanoid form so that she may pass the time playing  an antique piano. Though she is no longer in her massive dragon form, she still carries herself with all the confidence of her true self. Sloan sits bloodied in a chair, but Orizaba is clearly the higher priority. Depending on her allegiances, she could either be a formidable ally or a terrifying foe.   Music:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 23 Finally, after fighting their way through guards, traps, and anti-magic, the party comes face to face with Lynn Jarvis. The real Lynn Jarvis. From within his cage, he controls the city of Caravel. The wealth of the city lies behind him, and the forces of The Bard's Rebellion stand before him. Still, he remains calm and confident. Though just one man, he can still strike fear into a city.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon:...

Bk. 04 Ch. 22 The trapped hallway may not be much of a concern, but there is plenty of worry to go around. Finnigan is under the floor with Cerul, trying to save an ally from the jaws of a dragon. Even if Sloan's life can be saved, there are other forces at work within The Contract House. Lynn Jarvis is close, but he is unlikely to give up without a good reason.   Music: twitter.com/DarylBarnes_ Art: twitter.com/gabi_desu Patreon: patreon.com/skyrendpodcast Discord:...
