Eventide Reading

DRAGONSBARD: Eventide Chapter 4 Reading

As we have been preparing for the Gencon Game Convention in Indianapolis, Indiana, we thought we would share with you a sample chapter from our Dragon’s Bard Eventide project. This is chapter 4 entitled ‘The Millinery and the Pixies’ — read largely by Laura — and we both hope you’ll enjoy it. This chapter introduces us to Melinda Oakman, the town millinery and her trials not only at creating a ‘quest hat’ for Jarod Klum but in dealing with some most unlikely — and unwelcome — house guests.

Our next podcast will be from the Gencon Game Convention in about two weeks. We hope you’ll join us there!
