Magic of Eyri 019-Neo Geo

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Today’s episode: A battered and bruised Delu returns to the Hawk King and tells of Zeroth’s betrayal and Steve’s escape. After consulting a vulture mystic, the Hawk King determines that Steve’s next stop must be a visit to the Oracle of Uth, the Last Human Village.  Steve does indeed meet with the Oracle, Geo, and learns of the next part of his quest–find a way to Dragons Well and search for the Sword of Zaa.

In our last episode: Our Heroes finally reached Uth, the Last Human Village.

Next Time on The Magic of Eyri (03.03.10): “Burn” – Fiach-Ra, the Hawk King, takes matters into his own hands when it comes to dealing with Steve and his friends.

Ramblings:

This is the first episode to feature some of my original “music.” I say “music” because it is more or less me hitting random keys on a synth keyboard until I found something that sounded neat.  I also recorded some guitar parts (but not everything you hear in this episode is my doing) and ran them through “amps” in GarageBand.  I had fun coming up with music and I’ll try to do it in the future, because some times you just want a crunchy power chord for a scene.

Today’s episode also features some great guest voice work by the mysterious Valeta.  She is very talented and I’m happy to have her on board the podcast and look forward to having her voice more characters in upcoming episodes.

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).
