#337 - Court of Blades: Valloward Session One (Excerpt)

ICYMI, our Court of Blades series Valloward has been announced as an Early Selection for the 2023 New Jersey Web Fest, a prominent film/media festival for web series (from fiction podcasts and short films to actual play shows like ours!). We're very proud of the world we've been doing in the series, and it's wonderful to have that work recognized by the NWJF judges. To celebrate, we're releasing this excerpt of our first session to the podcast feed to give podcast-first listeners a sample of the series. Enjoy!

On the 300th anniversary of the founding of the great city of Valloward, the noble House Vorster plays host to a celebration which is interrupted by matters most foul. A new coterie in House Vorster will rise to defeat this threat and begin the story of their rise through the ranks of the Great Game of Houses.
