Spoil Me! Mage Errant

Thank you so much to Dan for commissioning this episode!It's time for the final chapters of the series, and I can't believe that I'm here already. These books seemed to go by in a flash!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!These are the chapters in which I find out how Kanderon deals with Alustin, and I'm both a little surprised but also understand where she's coming from and I appreciated the reminders of all the horrible things he'd done.There's a lot of other events, but that's something I'm really interested in discussing.Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!If you'd like to talk spoilers, come join the Discord! https://discord.gg/rEF2KfZxfV

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!These chapters are the ones in which we meet Niana Everflame for the first and last time, and I have some misgivings about this story being dropped in the middle of the battle. However, we have a pretty fun confontation with Alustin and Godrick in which the traitor gets really told off, and then we meet a NICE demon!Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to Dan for commissioning this episode!This is the chapter I've really been waiting for, the one where Alustin finally realizes that maybe he's fucked up and doesn't know enough about this sanity-shattering weapon to wield it. Well well well, appreciate the revelation, Alustin!Thanks for listening, and I will see you all again soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!In these chapters we get the kids meeting up with Valia, who takes a moment to ensure the death of her leader before allying with the enemy to take down Alustin.Hoo boy.Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!If you'd like to join our Discord and get in on some of the convo, check it out here!

Thank you so much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These chapters are the ones in which I finally begin to cotton onto the joke about the oh-so-exclusive Hidden Clan, and now I'm really eager to find out what's going on. We also have a check-in with Talia and her friends about her feelings regarding what Alustin said.Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These chapters are the ones in which the Chitin Wand is finally destroyed, and this triggers a reaction in Labyrinths everywhere...including Mackerel. I talk about this a little, and the folks in the audience throw out some theories, and I'm still not sure if we get the right answer.Thank you so much to everyone for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!These chapters we FINALLY get to see Hugh & Co. facing off with Alustin, until they're VERY rudely interrupted.Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!This is the section where we first start jumping around between all the different Great Powers on the field and watching them battling (or not, as the case may be). My personal favorite of course it Talia's parents who turn out to have some absolutely unbelievable abilities, both in terms of their relationship and their magic.Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!So these chapters are the ones in which we finally get to meet Talia's parents, and I'm so very delighted by them. Far from the austere and demanding parents we may have expected, they're effusive and kind and really welcoming to Hugh. Of course I have a tangent about personal temperature control. We also get a weird hint of what Heliothrax is up to, but no details, and I'm very eager to see what she's doing.Thank you so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These are the chapters where our friends get brought to a pretty wild fort made out of a tornado where they're going to hole up until it's time for battle, and it's called Fort Maelstrom. But mostly I want to talk about a certain non-binary sound mage who is giving me life.Thank you so much for listening, and I can't wait to see you with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These are the chapters in which we're getting to see more of Valia and Havath, and it turns out that a lot of the upper echelon Havathi people do not have a realistic understanding of their situation so a meeting has been called to impress upon them the precarious nature of the situation by suggesting some drastic measures.Meanwhile, Hugh ends up in a dream that turns out to be quite a big deal.Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These chapters are packed with table-setting, and one of the more interesting developments is the weirdness between Hugh and Rhodes. The ex-bully hasn't apologized and it's unclear if he really feels shame, but I'm waiting for him to finally get up the balls to apologize. I think I might be waiting a while.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!In these chapters, we get to find out exactly what the hell is going on with Rhodes and it's a weird mixture of irritating, satisfying, and weirdly funny. Also our crew decides to bring him with them on the next leg of their mission!Thanks for listening, and I will see you all soon with a new episode.

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!It's the final episode of coverage of Tongue Eater, and we're getting into the setup for what's coming instead of resolving things...which MAKES SENSE! But I thought I was going to get closure on one or two things at least, but we don't. Bierce is making us wait.That jerk.Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon with the start of Last Echo Of The Lord Of Bells!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!The final book in the series! WOOT! We start things out with out friends trying to move through Anastis with absolutely no attempt at camouflage....which works out about as well as one might expect. This ends with Rhodes! Of all people! Coming to their rescue.Also, Alustin is....not having second thoughts, exactly, but he's at least having a harder time with turning off his conscience it seems like. Not ENOUGH of a hard time, though, because he's still going through with it.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These chapters of Tongue Eater are the ones where a battle between the Librarians Errant and Havath erupts unexpectedly when they're ambushed during a negotiation. I'm so torn here because I'm not really rooting for either side, but I also don't want either of them to lose...and of course, there's the looming threat of the Tongue Eater which continues to eat away (or should I say "lick" away, heh) at Alustin's mind.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These chapters see our friends getting settled in this strange tree world, training to get used to their new affinities and how they overlap, and also running into some issues with poor Hugh's lung condition. It turns out that their great efforts at making a space that's safe to live in are very amateurish in comparison to the great housing already available! Who knew?Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These are the chapters where we find out why everyone in Kemetrias treats Hugh & Co. so oddly when they read the official papers the group is carrying, and it turns out that the reason is a lot less threatening than I predicted. Meanwhile, the crew continues onward into a new land with absolutely gargantuan trees and flowers...as well as some really dangerous air quality.Thank you so much to everyone for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

These are the chapters where our friends finish the battle against assumed pirates, and they are brought before a princess who for some reason regards them as profound objects of pity. Also, a new rune is "born" and our friends end up at a mulberry farm where silk is being manufactured.Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These chapters are the ones in which our crew wanders through this weird alien city, watch the sunset, and then hire a really cool grass ship to take them to the three-pointed mountain WAY faster than their original plan of hiking on foot. I'm very relieved for them, but I'm still extremely paranoid about why everyone if giving them sad looks.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These are the chapters in which we meet some humans from another world and get to see the way they live and how their economy works, as well as the way they utilize magic. However, I'm getting really twitchy about how this place seems a little too calm and friendly and I'm just...concerned.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These are the chapters where we find out the details of the ritual our friends have agreed to do together, and it's actually a really dope-ass idea. They're pacting to one another, and thus gaining all of one another's attunements which will put them on the track to being great powers. It's pretty wild that this option never occurred to me!Thank you so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to Dan for commissioning this episode!So these chapters are truly so imaginative and interesting and have me asking so many questions that I really would spend more time (if I were ever able to interview John Bierce) talking about this place than Anastis because I really want to know things! Also, we're ready to do what needs to be done in order to save Kanderon a lot sooner than I was expecting.Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to Max for commissioning this episode!This is the section where our friends are wandering through the labyrinth, and we find out that their ultimate goal is to cross through to another universe which is BANANAS. Also we're seeing Alustin falling more and more under the influence of the Tongue Eater and he keeps telling himself it's going to be fine but like...dude. Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These are the chapters where Hugh comes through with his master plan for getting Indris on his side when he declares himself and Kanderon's heir, and then lies to Sabae's gramma's face about how he's definitely not going to go anywhere.Oh Hugh, good for you buddy.Thank you so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to Dan for commissioning this episode!In these chapters we have Godric FINALLY getting his hands on the person who stole his dad's letter...oh, and his dad's letter, which should matter more.However, the most important thing is that everyone starts listening to Hugh about Kanderon still being alive.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!I'm so excited, despite the fact that I'm sad about our losses, because the fact that we're going into a era without Kanderon, without Alustin, and without Artur :(, I'm stoked to see where we're going now that the training wheels are off.Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to Dan for commissioning this book!First of all, if you think I sound weird you're NOT wrong...somehow all my sound went through my computer mic instead of my good fancy mic so I'm sorry about that.I am still delighted to be back in this universe though!See you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!Well we're at the end of the book, and we're getting a real doozie of a betrayal here, folks. I'm truly stunned at the turn things are taking, even though I was jUST commenting in the last episode about how disturbing Alustin's lust for vengeance is and how he needs to get that shit under control. Trouble is, there's STILL information that we don't have access to, because he accuses Kanderon of having a whole other coven that's inter-worldly, and since I've been suspicious of her for a minute I would REALLY like to hear what that's all about.Thank you all so much for listening, and I will be seeing you soon with The Tongue Eater!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!In these chapters, we get an up-close and personal look at how much Alustin hates Havath and all of the people in it, and oof this shit is BLEAK, y'all. He is so absolutely brutal, so horrifically creative, and so utterly RELENTLESS and meanwhile I'm in the head of a person who seems to NOT want to hurt him. This really got to me.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!These chapters are the ones in which the tide of the battle begins to turn and shit is really going left. Hugh, meanwhile, has a confrontation with Valia and he kills her in a direct and deliberate way that was extremely intense to read.Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!In these chapters the Havathi manage to get through the wards and bust all the way into Skyhold, and it turns out that while Kanderon thought they had nothing to worry about, a LOT of the intel she was getting about their forces was dead wrong.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!These are the chapters where I under-read by accident, but I make up for it next episode so don't worry. However, the main thing here for me is that we get to be there for Talia's skeleton tattoo and let me tell you....NO.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!These chapters are the ones in which we learn a little more detail on how scent affinities work, as well as ways in which Sabae can do some new things with her existing armor. I was really excited about getting another look at the library, and I felt for Hugh SO MUCH in terms of his breakdown. As someone who can also get overwhelmed by too many social expectations, I really understand where he's coming from.Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you all again soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!In these chapters, we get a story from Alustin that leads him to take some time alone for a drink, and we find out that he's got some other secret...but we don't find out what it is. Also, we go back to Skyhold and raise the wards, and then we watch them get tested.Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!These are the chapters where our friends have gone out to Yardang and get into a battle with The Herdsman. Of course they've got the help of Alustin and Captain Bandon, who were undercover pretending to be the captain and the first mate. The battle is pretty wild, and Godric goes up against someone pretty formidable...plus LOTS of chameleons.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!These chapters see our friends returning to Skyhold and watching as all of the occupants prepare for an imminent siege. While they're taking the precautions seriously, it really doesn't seem as if anyone is truly concerned about the Havathi breaching Skyhold, and the main focus here is everyone returning to classes and the mentorship program that has Hugh wound a little tight.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!We're finally getting into the next book and Hugh is recovering from some truly horrific injuries. I really feel for the kid because the process sounds slow, frustrating, and exhausting.Meanwhile Talia is coming up with a pretty wild idea on how to create armor for herself, and we get to meet Loarna!Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!It's time for the FINAL CHAPTERS of The Lost City Of Ithos, and I hope that you all will bear with me towards the end because this is when I got the news about Sam's terrible infection from the vet live on the air and get pretty emotional.The way that this book ends is kind of delightful because it seemed that John Bierce knew he had to do something with the Cold Minds and yet had painted himself into a bit of a corner with what totally unstoppable world-destroyers they are. I think he handled it quite well!Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with the start of The Siege Of Skyhold!

Thank you so much to Dan for commissioning this episode!We are almost wrapped on this book and shit's really going left for our friends. We've got a massive battle between our crew and the Havathi, and there's a lot of new stuff we're learning that CERTAIN PEOPLE (Artur) can do that is truly wild.Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!In these VERY eventful chapters, we get a lot of forward movement as our friends make it to the Lost City and realize that there's going to be a big showdown with the Havathi and they're going to need serious backup in the form of Kanderon. There's also some really creepy stuff involving a tiger.Thank you so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to Dan for commissioning this episode!This is the section where we find out what Liches are, and it turns out that they're nothing like what I was thinking BUT I was not alone in assuming that! Which truly makes me feel a lot better. We also get to meet one of these Liches, and we find out some weird shit is going on that is almost DEFINITELY a sign that they're near Ithos.Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to Dan for commissioning this episode!In these chapters, we find out what the name Rising Cormorant means, and we also finally have Talia getting honest with Hugh about her feelings for him. It's a great section, and I'm hoping that the time Hugh takes to consider ends with him giving Talia a chance.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Dan for commissioning this episode!These are the ones in which I completely sympathize with Hugh's full-body rejection of a badly constructed ward, and smile smugly to myself as he not only builds something wonderful, but gets the whole project named after him. Take THAT, Hugh's inferiority complex!We also get a tiny peek at Artur's POV and get some understanding about why he doesn't like ships.Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!
