Episode 9: Death of the Echowood

CONTENT WARNING: Discussions of illness, death, and grief, natural disasters, existential dread and paranoia, and character betrayal.

Chasing the Traveler into the woods, Grael soon finds himself alone beside the ancient archway – the door between worlds. There, he finds someone he does not expect... And a story about the arch's creator becomes a meditation on time, change, and the end of all things.

Starring Sam Taylor as Grael, Tal Minear as The Traveler, and Alejandra Cejudo as Maeven, with original music by Jesse Haugen. Written and produced by Trevor Van Winkle and made possible by our supporters on Kickstarter, Patreon.com/homesteadcorner, and ko-fi.com/homesteadcorner. Executive produced by Axel Allcock.
