Tails from the Dark Dragons Inn

Not dead – Just sleeping

The early-mid-year hiatus

Unfortunately, health has taken its toll on productivity this year. I could potentially keep pushing to try and get episodes edited in time for release, but truthfully, I don't think I can manage it right now. For those of you enjoying and looking forward to the latest updates on Myx, Scraw, Mhurren, Tobe, Erbak and The Doomsingers adventures, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. We're aiming to be back in July, to give me enough time to get back on my feet. Much love to all of you

Season Two: Episode Twenty-Nine

You might notice this episode is a touch different in that it's a little unfinished (In terms of intro/outro). Torn between releasing today or in a few days when my voice maybe comes back, I decided I'd release today instead. I'll update it when I can, but I'm sure you won't REALLY mind too much, right? Sorry for those of you who enjoy the intro babble. I just SUPER don't have it in me and I'd rather you got the episode at all! What's New? Voices at play launched! It's available on every m...

Season Two: Episode Eighteen: A Fey day gone sour

Fey day, in its own way, is a time for celebration. It has its traditions, little quirks, a feywild congregation. But traditions as with all things, have to start some place; a child's rhyme, lost to time, leaving not a trace. The fey, I fear, are simple things just like a worm in Mud; the origins of all Fey Days begin and end with blood.
