World of Azuria: Episode Three

In episode twenty-six of The Storyverse of Verdigris, Iellieth and Marcon settle into the town of Trudid, hide from soldiers, and experiment with Iellieth's magical amulet. IntroductionHello adventurers, and welcome to season two, episode twenty-six of the recently renamed Storyverse of Verdigris podcast! My name is Beth Ball, and I'm an epic fantasy author and game designer weaving tales of magic and adventure across the high fantasy worlds of Azuria and Eldura.  In season two of our podcast, we’re traveling through Buried Heroes, book one in the Age of Azuria epic fantasy series, though occasionally I’ll share previews of other interconnected stories across the storyverse!  If you enjoy epic fantasy worlds, immersive settings, nature-based magic, and vivid characters, then this podcast is for you.  In today’s episode, Iellieth and Marcon settle into the town of Trudid on their mission from the druids of the Vagarveil Wood.  I’m so excited to be diving back into Buried Heroes with you!
