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.

Next Time on The Magic of Eyri (01.06.10): Packing It In Note the date! There will not be any episodes released in December.  I’m taking the month “off” to build up a stockpile of episodes.  Even though I won’t be releasing episodes, I will still be working on them. Make sure to come back in January.

Ramblings: Yes, it is true: I’m not releasing any episodes in December.  This is to give myself a bit of a break and to help create some breathing room between working on episodes.  Plus, I know I’ll be busy because of the holidays and not having to worry about releasing episodes on top of everything will be nice. This was a bittersweet episode to make, as it means the last time a couple of characters will appear.
