    We pick up outside of Windgap Refuge that has just been sacked by the Marquise de Cat. With their contact killed in the raid, Peter, Cotton, and Bramble make a bold move in an attempt to set the Denizen's free. They manage to continue on their journey armed only with the information they received and their arms and armor.

    This is less of an episode and more of an update on what we're up to leading into Season Three: Bigger, Badder and Stickier. There are several shameless plugs in there for our Patreon (releasing in April), Wolfbeard Games, and our sister podcast, Paramnesia Theater. There is also a huge cry for help- but you have to listen to find out more! After listening here make sure to move right onto our first episode of Season Three where we play Root the RPG!

    Explicit

    We're putting Season Two to sleep like that little boy did to his old yellow dog. This is a live episode filled with round table discussions on what makes us people, what we liked about this past season, and where we're headed next! And because you're such good friends, we even play a little bonus game of "Ravine" just for you. This episode is a live recorded episode which means it's not as polished as our normal episodes, it does not contain sound effects, but it does contain coughing noises and microphone pings. But it also contains so much laughter you'll forget all about those negatives. Thank you all for a fantastic second season and we can't wait to jump into season three!
