1 hr - Dreams Made Real: Exploring the Fade and the Veil
In this week's episode, the Cups dive into both the Fade and the Veil. You've probably heard a lot about both of these topics, and you may even be confused about the differences between the two. Most of the major players in Thedas each have their own ideas about the history and theology behind the Fade and the Veil.
