Dear Listener,The witches of Gumpendorf prove most helpful: with respect to the light magic that they do know, and the knowledge of whom might be able to help them with the more eldritch, weirder kind of magic. With Lacy and Araminthia providing them two people with whom to potentially ask more questions of, I wonder if Sully will get this way about who they will go see? I guess you're about to find out. They say in your world that every villain has a story; that they're the hero in their own

Dear Listener,Long forgotten memories come to haunt the travelers as they set themselves up for the night. They end up watching shadows and talking until the sun comes up - covering everything from the wisdom of age, lost family and the instinct to run, but will their long night be detrimental to them as they have a long day's trek ahead? I guess you're about to find out. I find the dark strangely illuminating when it comes to ones fears, and the daylight oddly sanitizing of those fears. Perhaps a
