Focused Fire Chat, a Destiny Lore Podcast

Episode 87 brings Blue, Green, and Justin together to chat about the updates that we've gotten over the last few months concerning the Last City within Destiny. Due to a lot of the new information actually being contained throughout a variety of fragments of different Grimoire cards and items instead of any signle card, the conversation does meander through topics a bit - so enjoy a conversation that delves into the philosophy of the Factions, the implications of the political structures of the Consensus, and even a bit of a chat about the underlying nature of the Guardians themselves (which will also be next week's topic!).

Oh - and we have a new website.

Episode 86 brings Blue, Green, and special guest co-host TTL Goose together to chat about a few different things. Fair warning, this episode is a bit longer than usual, because we actually start off on something of a non-lore note: Goose's Destiny 2 reveal experience and some amazing details about the well known app, Destiny Item Manager (DIM). Once we get done hyping over the reveal (we know - we're still excited, okay?!) - we get down to brass tacks and open Pandora's box: we start talking about the infamous Clovis Bray. 

It's a good chat - but get ready for some deep tangents and debates on the importance of morality (queue Jurassic Park theme - believe me, you'll understand when you get to the part in the episode).

Episode 85 brings Blue, Green, Justin, and special guest co-host RYNO-666 together to chat about the Nightstalker Hunters. But first...we chat a bit about the recent Destiny 2 reveal that Justin had a chance to attend (we get a bit distracted by the hype...but it's a good conversation, so Blue left it in). 

RYNO and Blue chat a bit about the potential nature of the Void in regards to the Destiny universe as well as the potential impact of the nature of that flavor of Light has upon the subclasses that utilize it.

Episode 84 brings Blue, Green, and Justin back together to chat about the lore that we have currently about those indomitable figures of titanic might, the Sunbreakers. The team (admittedly not Titans - fair warning) dives into the information that is presented within the Grimoire, items, and even a few specific missions (thank you, Bungie for those new sub-class missions!!) to dig out some intriguing nuggets of information about these fiery warriors. We also strongly recommend you stick around after the signoff - there might be a 'googly eyed' surprise for everyone.

Our 14th installment of the Extra Lore series brings Blue, Green, Justin, and returning special guest co-host Damoel together to chat about the immense world of the Forgotten Realms (and the general Dungeons & Dragons series). Join the team and get ready to gear up with some good, basic knowledge (and some great side stories) about the world of Forgotten Realms and the joys of tabletop gaming. Also - Justin needs help figuring out what bits are on Twitch.

This special episode is a recording of the live stream that Blue was able to help out with for the Dames of Destiny a few weekends ago as a part of their GuardianCon 2017 'Fun-Raiser'. The topic was that of what the group nicknamed the "Ladies of Light" - and the live stream hosts were Blue, DJ Kantrip, Silvar_loki, and Morcoire. More of a collection of thoughts around the topic than a full episode, the team thought that it would be cool to let those who might have missed the opportunity to jump into the chat to hear everyone's thoughts!

Episode 83 brings Blue, Justin, and Green back together to chat about (and laugh over) the story behind the Wrath of the Machine raid within Destiny - from the "broken parentheticals" to a nightmarish concept of endlessly twisting steps of twizzlers, you should be entertained. We also chat about some of the awesome theories that were presented over on r/DestinyLore and from within our Discord chat - the community really had some great ideas on this one!

Episode 82 brings Blue, Justin, and returning special guest co-host Damoel back together to chat about the new breadcrumbs of information that we received in the Lore concerning the Awoken and Fallen - and the implications of what those tidbits of information can mean for the future of the Destiny universe. Granted, this is a shorter discussion than we normally have - but don't worry, Justin made up for the brief chat with commentary that brought both Blue and the chat close to tears. Usually of laughter.

As mentioned in the episode notes and show, we decided this week to provide a separate audio file for the Grimoire cards. This "Audio Grimoire Supplement" was put together by Blue and Green for everyone to have a chance to hear the Grimoire cards that fueled the conversation this week. Due to the number of cards mentioned (13 in total - ending up with roughly an hour of reading), we didn't want to sacrifice the depth of conversation on this amazing story.

Please be sure to also check out the amazing reading of the Thorn and The Last Word cards over on Ghost & Echoes - the work done there is truly awesome.

With that, enjoy the cards!!

• Segment 1

• 01:15 - Thorn

• 07:20 - Rezyl Azzir (Before These Walls)

• 32:39 - Ghost Fragment: Thorn 2

• 57:45 - Ghost Fragment: Thorn 5

Episode 81 brings Blue, Green, Justin, and special returning guest co-host MyNameIsByf, back together to chat about a story that has (literally) been over 2 years in the making within the game of Destiny - The Story of Yor. Please note that this week, we're giving you two 'episodes' - this discussion and then a separate 'Audio Grimoire Supplement' that has the full reading of all the Grimoire cards mentioned in this episode. Get ready for a longer chat - we try to keep the conversation somewhat concise, but between Blue's enthusiasm and Justin's joking...we get derailed at some points (huge surprise, we know). Blue made a point of copying his notes into this week's mind map as well, since we weren't able to touch on all the points. Please be sure to check those out and let us know your thoughts!
