Episode 6: Act 2 - The Illusion of Peace
In most fantasy stories, the hero's family is basically just background dressing—the idyllic, boring starting point that the protagonist leaves behind to find the actual adventure.

We dive into the chilling realization that E.M. Pax and Crater Steve knew exactly where they were hiding on the furthest outskirts. A targeted assassination requires precise intelligence, which leads to one unsettling thought: someone in their quiet town betrayed them.
