Sidequesting is a fantasy podcast about avoiding the main plot! It follows Rion, an adventurer who's willing to help just about anyone out - as long as they don't have to deal with the scary wizard everyone's talking about.

TRANSCRIPT:

Miller: Aren’t adventurers supposed to have a specific purpose? What are you doing on this quest, just meeting strangers?

Rion: Yep! My purpose is to have no purpose. Though… I sort of find purpose as I go.

Oliver: My basket! It’s missing! I’ve spent all morning gathering them and now they’re gone and I think someone took them!

Jefferson: I have tried many means of defense but none have yet proven successful. A single man cannot defeat him!

Willow: I just wish someone would succeed in getting that darn sword. Or that they would all decide it was impossible and give up and go home.

Lord: I am under attack by this ruffian!

Rowan: I want to be big and strong and fight evil!

Iris: I fear I’ve ruined any chances of civil conversation. I have hope that if you show up at her door, she might listen.

Clara: My dad wants to marry me off to another princess to join our kingdoms or some nonsense like that.

Sam: Wanna help me yell at them? With your sword? In a… threatening manner?
