Welcome back, loyal listeners.
In our last episode: A Hawken warrior tries to convince Steve to hand over his blue heron amulet, but the negotiations take a nasty turn and Steve receives help from Mudd the duck–the bartender of the pub where Steve and Uncle Shameless were captured.
Today’s episode: Our heroes continue their escape from the Hawk King’s castle, using an old aqueduct as a make-shift water slide. Meanwhile, we are introduced to the Hawk King’s second in command, U’nala, a one-winged Hawken who has gone crazy from decades of administrative work. Nevik, the Hawken who tried to bring Steve to the Hawk King, informs U’nala of The Boy’s arrivial in the city. U’nala doesn’t know who this The Boy person is, but he’s fairly certain it means bad news for the Hawk King–which always means more work for him.

Next Time on The Magic of Eyri (8.16.09): Are You a Pelican or a Pelican’t? — Steve and Uncle Shameless make a new friend. A Mystic of Zuu tells Nevik and U’nala of The Prophecy. Nevik informs the Hawk King of Steve’s arrivial. U’nala fills out more paper work. Special Note: Introduces Robin Hudson (of Angel Between the Lines) as the voice of Eira, the pelican!
Ramblings: This episode is a bit short, but don’t worry–some of the next few will be longer. I enjoy writing/voicing U’nala because he lets me be over the top/goofy, something I didn’t want to do with Fiach-Ra. He’s kind of the Starscream to Fiach-Ra’s Megatron.
