My advice: If you're a mage being hunted, put everything into Necromancy. Surrounding yourself in a wall of skeletons makes you much harder to capture.
First of all, I adore this audio. Your voice is amazing and the delivery of emotion is incredible. Much enjoyed :D Second of all, have a funny that I stumbled across by coincidence; Audio, 5:08: “-Because, if I look at you guys, all I see is *them-!*…” (video buffers, I confusedly reach over to see if the connection’s being screw-y and-) Abruptly and *l o u d l y,* in my ears: ‘’COME SHOP GREAT DEALS AT-‘’ (frantically scrambles to turn volume down)

“You aren’t weak for losing to their mage. I understand that you’re traumatized by your defeat and even more by those visions but now isn’t the time to succumb to fear. Do you know why there are no solo adventurers?” “Why?” “Because *everyone* fails at some point. If it wasn’t for you breaking the Sect of Unity’s Curse I’d still be with the enemy! Not only would my mistake have stopped me but it’d also give them a powerful ally. And don’t forget about when you saved Tia from the demon that’d been plaguing her family for so long. She was going to leave after we found out about them but you found a solution for us! If you didn’t banish them then Tia would’ve eventually lost her inner struggle. And it’s no different from when we rescued you. So what if you lost one time?! You’re mortal! So don’t focus on what would have happened if you were alone when we’d *all* have similar answers! A solo adventurer is a dead adventurer.” “But… their mage could render me powerless with one word. Just one word and I completely lost control of my magic! You see this scar? I told you that they burned me but I was lying. It was my Golden Flames! The magic that earned me my title burned me! What kind of mage loses control of her own magic!?” “The kind that still has something to learn. Don’t you remember back when you were learning to use magic? I’d be surprised if anyone *hadn’t* burned themselves at some point! So find out what their mage did. There has to be some trick when someone weaker than you came up with such a spell and now that you’re safe you can take the time to prepare. To make sure it doesn’t happen again!” “But… what if I fail? I’m not like you. I’m just a loser who can’t even control her magic!” “You’re not a loser! You’re the Golden Mage! The most powerful mage this world has seen since Mordenkainen! The one whose power was acknowledged by Mystra herself! So there’s nothing that *any* mage can do that you can’t prepare for. You’ve proved that countless times and by the time we’ve stopped The Cult of the Devourer he’ll just be one more defeated foe.” (Puts a hand on her shoulder and smiles) “As our leader, and as your friend, I guarantee it.” (Sigh) “I don’t think time itself can heal these wounds but… I’ll keep trying. I can’t let destiny down now that it’s chosen us and I don’t want you guys getting hurt either.” “That’s the spirit. Now let’s get some rest and in the morning we’ll come up with a plan to defeat those assassins.” “…I don’t think that’s a good idea. What if they come and attack me or hurt you or-“ “I’ll stay.” “With me?” (Nods) “S-sure. I’d like that.” (Smiles) “It’s no wonder you’re our leader.” Out of character: Let’s goooo! It’s been a while since an audio has inspired me this much so thank you so much for making it! I hope you liked this version of Listener-San’s speech and don’t mind the liberties I took when writing it, such as how I essentially added a Tiefling Warlock to the party.

Lmao that would be very useful yes!
Sounds like the start to a great adventure. She will become what she needs to be because they are there for her. Wonderful audio
Thank you! And that is very nice to hear
You're not weak you're a strong girl!
She would appreciate hearing that for sure
When you think about it saving the world must be terrible for your mental health, good thing ‘support’ is a party role.
Yeah, it sounds aweful with the amount of stress... havinf a suppoet character is a must have
Quite the understatement. 😞
💚 Can't do everything on your own, we will always have your back through thick and thin. We'll face their calamity head on if we have to. 😁💚

Curious question: are you going to do another long term series similar to the vampire one?
Yes actually, I do have plans for that for 2024. However with how busy college has been, it might take a wholw
