[insert quest here]

We're still in the dead city, trying to recover the strange bust. Of course we're also fighting a deadly hulking ghost beast.

The danger doesn't end there; we also have visions of the past to deal with.

This week the Spectres deal with past failures and missteps, and are forced to infiltrate the spirit infested walled city of Morgward.

But is that daring enough for them?

This week we take a short break from Arcus to have a chat with Hamish about his game The Sprawl; a mission focused cyberpunk heist game.

Well also talk about game design competitions, cyber-fantasy, and some of Hamish's upcoming projects.

Fazio is back in Bedlam, and struggling to find his footing. Meanwhile on the outside Nain, and Zephira try to claim so more turf. Is it a bakery? You'll have to listen to find out.

Content Warning: This episode has an extreme depiction physical violence, it starts at: 31 minutes.

The Spectres of the Iron Pen continue their obsession with bakeries, and Nain has a run in with the past. All the while press from the kites is mounting, not to mention other strange forces.

Things start off weird in this weeks episode. Mystic Bone Keys, visitation of dead men, and omens of the frost shepherds.

We also get into some gossip trading, the romancing of city officials, and the creation of powerful artifacts.

Come delve into the ghost field with us this week in Arcus.

This week we're taking a short break from Arcus to bring you another interview with a game designer.

This time we're talking to Craig Page, a LARP, Jedi, and all around cool guy. Craig came on to talk to us about his LARP project; Kensei. A Martial Tournament larp set in the near future.

The Spectres have a an invite to a masquerade at a house owned by the Heirs of Aralez; and they're going to make big coin on it.

All the most interesting and wealthy members of Arcus' citizenry will be in a attendence. It'll be an excellent time to build status, arrange deals, and indulge vices to excess.

Our scoundrels have other plans; side job after side job has been bundled up into this heist and our rogues are going for broke. Will they manage to complete all their objectives? You'll have to listen in if you want to find out.

This week in the city of Arcus out scoundrels try to expand their turf even further. They case notions of a bakery, consider opening a casino, and even attempt to gain stakes in a Parly ring.

But are their forces conspiring against them? It seems like someone keeps getting in their way.

Hit play and travel to Arcus with us to uncover more.

EDIT: sorry about the bean bag noise. We tried to edit it out, but our voices sounded really weird. The bean bag is not too common a noise in the recording.

The smell of smoke still lingers amongst the orchards and The Bright Nights are reduced to ash but the Spectres are kept busy putting out fires. One war is over but there’s no real rest as Nain runs from his past, Zaphira puts hers in its place and Fazio expands his job prospects.

This week in Arcus: What’s in a name?
