    S7 E5: The Food Chain

    CW: Reference to slaughtering farm animals. If this would be triggering for you, please skip 22:13 to 24:56 and 26:00 to 26:12. As always, your safety and enjoyment are important to us. With a new heading, the group stays at Liam’s a little longer to prepare for their upcoming journey. The servants repair and polish equipment and armor, and Liam offers books on plant identification and basic survival tactics. He also shares documented details on rumored and confirmed creatures that dwell on the island of Nadros. Realizing insects might be an issue, Trix convinces Elaith to help them concoct a type of repellant for the trip as well. Meanwhile, Rou takes it upon himself to help the cooking staff prepare a big meal for Liam as a show of gratitude for his assistance. One of the chefs, Duke, walks Rou through preparing suckling pig, from choosing the animal to serving at the table. Rou struggles a little in the pen, falling on his face and losing the piglet. Duke shows appreciation for Rou’s attempt but ultimately admits the slaughter wouldn’t have been necessary as one was already prepped. Rou spends all day in the kitchen preparing various dishes and roasting the pig to Liam’s tastes, all the while pestering the staff for information on Liam. That night, Liam approaches Trix in their room and shares his findings, providing them with three options for what the oath may be for. During their conversation, Liam’s behavior and attitude shift briefly, setting Trix on edge. They admit their relation to the old Emperor and in doing so, offer space for Liam to entrust Trix with a secret of his own. After a very awkward dinner, Rou is left feeling like a failure and Trix is left with troubling answers to a big question.   Follow Dax @gmdax, Kappa @TheKappaChris, Sebastian @sebastianyue and Wren @ThornyDryad  EPISODE CREDITS:  Produced by Dax Opening theme music, editing and mixing by Wren Logo Artwork design by Jessie Character Artwork design by Riyuski Segment music and sound effects licensed through Epidemic Sound LINKS: Be sure to follow and tag Roads Uncharted on Bluesky!

    S7 E4: A New Heading

    CW: Reference to blood ingestion. If this would be triggering for you, please skip 14:46 to 14:52, 15:25 to 15:37, and 16:32 to 16:37. As always, your safety and enjoyment are important to us. The party is given time to rest, relax and recover from their long journey. They take time to explore the grounds and discover there are gardens and pastures full of livestock. Rou even takes time to learn how to cook and bake from Liam’s staff. Meanwhile, Trix searches for information on blood oaths in Liam’s library, finding a few things of note. When Liam asks about Trix’s interest in the subject, Trix gives a sample of their own blood so Liam can perform some hands-on research. On the fourth day of their visit, Rou checks in with Elaith on their progress. He does his best to try and get more information on Elaith’s past but the Kinder-Kai is hesitant to share. Despite this hesitation, he offers Elaith the opportunity to join him and Trix on their own journey. During dinner that night, Liam offers a solution that could address both sets of problems. He suggests they head to Nadros to search for powerful plants and an ancient fortress that is rumored to hold great knowledge. It would be a risk, as the jungles on the island are considered extremely dangerous, but worth it if they could make it to the ruins.    Follow Dax @gmdax, Kappa @TheKappaChris, Sebastian @sebastianyue and Wren @ThornyDryad  EPISODE CREDITS:  Produced by Dax Opening theme music, editing and mixing by Wren Logo Artwork design by Jessie Character Artwork design by Riyuski Segment music and sound effects licensed through Epidemic Sound LINKS: Be sure to follow and tag Roads Uncharted on Bluesky!

    S7 E3: Whispers in the Dark

    Liam joins the party for dinner and Rou updates him on all of the group’s adventures in Baukora, including the loss of Eight. He shares their discovery of the Seven Swords but avoids details on Trix’s true identity. The group then reveals the reason for their visit: answers to an alchemical problem, information on blood oaths and how they might free the Seven Swords from the jeweled cages. Liam agrees to help, but admits it will take some time. During the conversation, something Elaith says about their predicament gives Liam pause. He asks Rou and Trix to leave him alone with Elaith for a few moments, though Trix tries their best to listen in from the hallway. As the pair whisper in the dark dining room, Liam discovers why Elaith wishes to keep their task a secret and in return they notice something odd on his breath. Before going to bed, Rou sneaks off into Liam’s gardens and sets Eight’s pack of knick-knacks under a large willow tree. As he takes a moment to reflect on his lost companion, a hedgehog comes by and seems to offer to guard what remains of Eight.  Follow Dax @gmdax, Kappa @TheKappaChris, Sebastian @sebastianyue and Wren @ThornyDryad  EPISODE CREDITS:  Produced by Dax Opening theme music, editing and mixing by Wren Logo Artwork design by Jessie Character Artwork design by Riyuski Segment music and sound effects licensed through Epidemic Sound LINKS: Be sure to follow and tag Roads Uncharted on Bluesky!

    S7 E2: An Herbalist and a Fugitive

    CW: Explosions sound effect at 8:20. If this would be triggering for you please skip, your safety and enjoyment are important to us. Rou shifts into a werewolf and engages the guards while Trix shoots an explosive arrow to cause a dust cloud as a distraction. Trix then sneaks over to the cage and frees the captive. However, the captive refuses to leave without their goods and the pair race off into a nearby graveyard after stealing the small trunk on the cart. Trix dashes into a crypt and the ex-captive hides behind a large gravestone just as the dust settles. Rou takes off into the graveyard as well and drops into an open grave as the guards begin their search. With their leader injured, the few guards that make their way into the cemetery eventually give up when their superstitious nature wins over. Once the guards leave, the pair make their way to Liam’s manor with a new companion in tow.

    S7 E1: Of Grief and Hope

    CW: This episode deals with reactions to a character's death. While we discuss these things above table and feel safe exploring them, we realize this might be difficult for some audience members. Please skip 3:22 to 16:00 if this would be triggering for you. As always, your safety and enjoyment is important to us. Rou and Trix leave the Dread Wastes and the end of the Cragsward Mountain range. As they enter the plains they see a swarm of butterflies, which offers a moment of peace after Eight’s loss. The pair set up camp after a long day’s travel and reminisce about their journey with their former companion. Cela even joins in and shares the full story of the incident in Isha. In the morning, they are awoken by the sound of horses and people. They find that Indy & Co, sans Indy, are returning from the fortress with a contingent of the Sultan’s army. They learn that, thanks to their connections, Indy & Co. were able to convince the Sultan to help them and raided the fortress while the party dealt with Erdir. The children were able to be saved but the Emperor somehow escaped. The pair join the contingent for a time, separating at Duskhollow, and eventually use the teleporter to get to Eulela. They travel from Kidohlva, ransacked and evacuated, to Liam’s manor near the remains of Pineview. As they draw close to their ally’s home, they spy a group of guards escorting an elf in a cage.
