No Return
by Kier Zhou
No Return: An Audio Drama by Kier ZhouNo Return is a darkly comic British fantasy audio drama set in a vast, doomed world of gods, mercenaries, lost cities, political disasters and very bad decisions.Each story follows flawed people trying to survive a world that is too strange, too old, and too morally messy to make sense of. Expect ensemble chaos, dense worldbuilding, absurd humour, sudden tragedy, and fantasy with teeth.Start here if you like: morally compromised heroes, big lore, strange comedy, full-cast fantasy, and stories where the joke and the wound are usually the same thing.But don’t take my word for it…This show was nominated for Best Audio Drama at the New Zealand Web Fest and officially selected for the Cisco Web Fest, which is pretty good for someone who ran out of money to apply to any more festivals!Here’s what listeners are saying:

19: Actual Play: The Fate of Daya: The Elusive Answers...
Send us Fan MailSalryn (and Jorvin) didn't just sit idle these long weeks. They did everything they could to unpick the mysteries of Vita's plan, the machinations of Alaric Sylwraith and the mysterious 'Lessor' who wrote to the diplomat ... but... with Vita and Alaric dead, the party out of their depth, trapped and under siege... what did they expect? Even when they find clues they lack the knowledge to interpret them... and listening to Salryn and Jorvin flounder around trying to figure out what is signal and what is noise is just bad radio so we made the sensible editorial decision to cut all that out and just give you the few highlights.If you really want to know what is going on with all that Jazz...

1: Actual Play: The Fate of Daya: What is an Actual Play?
Send us Fan MailHey all! We, here at No Return, are returning to our roots! As some of you may know, Erset La Tari; The Land of No Return, began life as a 'homebrew' Table Top Role Playing Game (TTRPG) setting. Thanks to the immense talents of Dylan Smith (GM of Hearthfire Tales, as well as the voice of Sergeant Gavin Fern and Niillas Janicek on No Return) we are able to bring No Return to you in the form of a TTRPG Actual play.Co- Gamemastered by Dylan and Kier Zhou and played by the recognisable vocal talents of Jack (Tommo), Gemma (Ysenda, Thae Oraen & Cinnte) and Cameron (Amghar, Jyce Inacio, and the new voice of Deky and Ayelen). We are truly excited to bring the world of No Return to you in a more improvised, player led and spontaneous format where the players decisions and the whims of the dice will decide 'The Fate of Daya'.Jorvin De Ghast: Cameron Gergett @Cameron_Gergett/@JasperZoinkSalryn Ilanora: Gemma Maclean-Mair ‘Swifty’: Jack DuncanGM: Dylan SmithSupport the show

ABOUT THIS SHOW
No Return: An Audio Drama by Kier ZhouNo Return is a darkly comic British fantasy audio drama set in a vast, doomed world of gods, mercenaries, lost cities, political disasters and very bad decisions.Each story follows flawed people trying to survive a world that is too strange, too old, and too morally messy to make sense of. Expect ensemble chaos, dense worldbuilding, absurd humour, sudden tragedy, and fantasy with teeth.Start here if you like: morally compromised heroes, big lore, strange comedy, full-cast fantasy, and stories where the joke and the wound are usually the same thing.But don’t take my word for it…This show was nominated for Best Audio Drama at the New Zealand Web Fest and officially selected for the Cisco Web Fest, which is pretty good for someone who ran out of money to apply to any more festivals!Here’s what listeners are saying:
