 Magic of Eyri Ep001-A Shameless Summer [17:50m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

This is where it all begins folks.

Here is episode #001 of The Magic of Eyri. In our first episode, you get a quick overview before things get rolling.  Then the fun begins–we meet our heroes, Steve Harrier and his Uncle Shameless, and we find out why young Steve is spending the summer with his uncle in River City.

Technical Notes: this episode was recorded with a different microphone than the proceeding episodes, so there will be some sound differences.  Likewise, I’m still learning the fine art of audio mixing, so this first episode might sound a little rough in spots. I’m getting better with each episode though, and the same goes for my voice acting.

For more information on the story, check out About and Characters.  These sections will be updated as episodes are put online since I don’t want to spoil too much ahead of time.
