Welcome.
Come over to the fire.
Don't mind the passing voice of the train.
Look up at the sky. There's a story to tell. A story following the train tracks, rivers, strings of fate...
This world is dark after the Downfall. We rebuild. We fear.
Some of us still listen.
Join me. Listen to the stars.

Great story, great group!

I’m only a few episodes in and I’m already hanging on every bit of lore and character interaction that happens, this is what I want out of the games that I play in! Great community on discord as well.

Gorgeous storytelling

I’ve been listening to d&d podcasts for a long time and this is one of my new favorites - from the characters and their stories to the plot as a whole, I’m incredibly excited to catch up and see where they’re at now!

A Great New Take on the Live Play Format!

I’ve been playing DND for almost three decades. I’ve listened to a bunch of Live Play podcasts. This group has a fresh take on the genre by blending a couple of different genres that you wouldn’t think to put together and making it work wonderfully in a 5E format! Like a good chef, they balance several storytelling “flavors” to great a fantastic story-telling recipe! ^_^
