    C2 E2 • Children of Helios: Episode 2 (Finale)

    The Golden Fleece is real, it's guarded by a griffin, and it's on an island that doesn't let people leave. Hyacinth has faith you can handle it. The party is less sure. In the finale of Spell Guide: Children of Helios, a month has passed since the duel. Corinth is preparing for war with Sparta, Raven is having a crisis of faith and secretly learning to fight, Judith is on a folk hero circuit and working on her telekinesis, and Teng has acquired a Machiavellian coin manager named Enzo who nobody trusts. Their old enemy Mario joins the crew. They sail for the Garden of the Hesperides. Things get beautiful, then dangerous, then deeply complicated when Teng discovers paradise and refuses to leave. They get the fleece. They get the blade. Teng gets drugged. The griffin comes home with them anyway. The full Children of Helios campaign is now complete — two episodes, one city, a whole lot of dice. Start from the beginning or finish what you started. GM'd by Dean. Played by Alison, Teagan, and Sam.

    C2 E1 • Children of Helios: Episode 1

    Spell Guide is back — and the gods are watching. Welcome to Campaign 2 of Spell Guide, the actual-play podcast where four friends roll dice, make choices, and occasionally survive them. This two-part campaign drops us into the sun-baked city-state of Corinth, where a power-hungry Priest of Aries is trying to clip the wings of Aphrodite's temple — and three heroes have been quietly asked to do something about it.   C1 E5 • The Stallions of Redport: Episode 5 (FINALE)  Raven the Candle is a young priestess with divine blood and a smile that can stop a duel. Judith the Great is a Mage Knight whose flaming blade speaks louder than any diplomat. And their orc companion walks the line between mercenary and envoy, untethered by gods who've never bothered to notice him. Together they'll charm senators, crash a spa day, and survive a duel in a nobleman's courtyard — all in episode one. GM'd by Dean. Played by Alison, Teagan, and Sam.

    C1 E3 • The Stallions of Redport: Episode 3

    The party navigates a tense diplomatic summit between human kings, elves, and the looming Overlord, while secret scheming and backroom deals threaten to upend the fragile alliances they've built.
