Found you guys from TikTok, absolutely loving the story telling and the vibes are impeccable 🥰
Thank you so much 🥰
It’s vary interesting watching everyone trying to figure out what they are, what they can do and what level they are
I enjoyed it so much I didn’t realise this one episode was 3 hours long until I finished it 🤣🥰
Oh that's really amazing to hear! We're glad you liked it 🥰
This is incredible! I didn't want to start "yet another series" but Robert Hartley recommended you on his stream the other day and I was hooked from the moment Nikolai started speaking in character. I love the tug and pull of suspense you've created around this whole story.
Thank you so much! ☺️
It's good, huh!
YES! Most of the things you recommend turn out to be very good, I think we have similar tastes!
It’s so fun to come back and rewatch from the very start after watching all of the episodes so far !

Well done everyone🥳
where did you find those custom dice. I would love to give my party members in my campaign their own
Our dice sponsors The Ravensridge Emporium worked with us to create these custom sets
Loving this idea and world being slowly built. 💕✨
Only thing I would say as someone who’s autistic the sound levels are a bit abrasive on my ears. Hoping this will be fixed in time as I catch up on the show 🙏☺️💗
Thank you K B 🥰 and yes, totally understand you thanks for your feedback, we put an audio limiter on for ep 2 onwards (so there’s less abrasiveness) and the audio continues to get better every episode as our tech team keep hustling💪🏼
