280 - Dawnshard - Prologue to Chapter 5

About this episode

The episode begins a discussion on the novella Dawnshard, focusing on the characters Rysn and Lopen.

We are starting in on a new novella this week. It's time for Dawnshard. What will we learn about the mysterious objects for which the story is named? Well, not much this week - that's for sure. Still, some very interesting stuff as we seem to be setting up a story centered on Rysn and Lopen, an unlikely but highly entertaining pairing.
