Magic of Eyri 018-Uth the Last Human Village

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010

Today’s episode: Our Heroes finally reach Uth, the Last Human Village.

In our last episode: Zeroth tries to teach Steve how to fight using the creatures known as swordfish.  Zeroth also gives Steve and Uncle Shameless magical armor.  The armor changes size via the wearer’s imagination–Uncle Shameless has no difficulties with this, but it presents a challenge for Steve.

Next Time on The Magic of Eyri (02.17.10): “Neo Geo” – Steve meets the Oracle of Uth and the Hawk King is not happy after being informed that The Boy is still on the loose.

Ramblings:

I’m happy to announce that Lansing, Michigan singer/songwriter Ryan Knott recoded a line of dialogue for this episode.  His line, “that’s not a troll–that’s my wife!” was one of my favorite (stupid) lines in this episode.

And in other good news, I’ll have another guest voice for episode 019.  I like that I’m finally asking local folks to record a few lines here and there–but let us not forget to thank Robin Hudson (Eira) for all of her continuing hard work and excellent voice acting–especially since she’s all the way in South Korea! (that’s a long walk from Michigan).

In our last episode: Despite Steve’s protests, Uncle Shameless returns to help Zeroth and Cam as they battle the treacherous Arbal and the wily raven twins.  As Cam lays dying, he gives Zeroth one final command: protect Steve.

Next Time on The Magic of Eyri (01.20.10): “Fishy Business” Our heroes continue on their way to Uth, the Last Human Village.  Along the way, Steve gets an interesting weapon–a living creature called a swordfish.

Ramblings: For those trying to get an idea as to who Zeroth’s magical pack works, the best comparison I can think of is a TARDIS from Doctor Who: bigger on the inside than it is on the outside.  The inside of Zeroth’s pack has the same space as a large room, and objects (and persons) inside do experience some disorientation while as Zeroth moves around (similar to sea-sickness).  Zeroth removes items by thinking of them as he pulls his hand out.  To help remember what he is carrying, Zeroth keeps a ledger book with an ongoing list of what’s inside.
