Join your fellow squad mates, Hannah and Karen, for an Emergency Empyrean Battle Brief: the JUST RELEASED Onyx Storm blurb! In this expedited bonus episode (delivered via Dragon, no less 🐉), they explore the implications of the blurb, discussing character arcs, potential plot developments, and the overarching themes of trust, uncertainty, and the quest for truth. The conversation is rich with theories, the significance of the Isle Kingdoms, and the secrets that may unfold in the narrative. They also reflect on the emotional stakes for beloved characters as they anticipate the challenges ahead in the story.
