The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their upcoming action RPG: Avowed.
This week's episode will focus on several theories that both myself and contributors on Reddit have come up with regarding "The Voice" in Avowed, as well as our Godlike nature. This episode is entirely speculative, but it draws on a substantial amount of lore from the previous Pillars games.
Interestingly, though, there are NO SPOILERS in today's episode if you want to listen in, but at the same time, this will definitely be an episode where Eora veterans will be able to keep up easier than those new to the world. Not saying you shouldn't listen if you're new, just more of an interesting observation. Speculation is always fun, imo :)
Topics discussed: Rymrgand, the Glamfellen, Pale Elf Migration, Godless faction, Wael, Dreamscourge, Living Lands, Old Gods, Regular Gods, Animism, and Godlike.

I touch on Spoilers for Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire around the 30min mark. Once you hear the jazz music interlude if you don't want to risk it feel free to jump off, but I try not to say anything spoilery outright, I just skirt around it as best as I can.
Nextly, apologies for this episode being a week late. I've made the episode a bit longer than usual to make up for that.

This week's episode goes over a bunch of the gameplay footage we saw about Avowed in recent weeks. I go over a lot of what it is we saw, touch on the story and characters. Read some lore directly from pieces of gear or books. I also do a speculation section at the end of the episode about why we are a Godlike, and of whom; what "The Voice" might be and how the Godless faction might have ties to an ancient civilization known, in modern times, as "Yezuha"

Spoilers for Aloth's companion quests in both Pillars games, but NO major narrative spoilers for the crit path of either games.
The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their upcoming action RPG: Avowed.
This week we look at Aloth, a companion from both Pillars of Eternity games, and fan-favourite within the series. Our resident Wizard from the Aedyr empire, this episode talks about his background and what paths he can takes throughout the story of the Pillars games. Will Aloth make an appearance in Avowed? He's definitely a strong candidate given his ties to a certain secretive faction, and Aedyran nationality. But I suppose only time will tell.

This week's episode discusses the major city settlement in the second Pillars game (Deadfire), "Neketaka". We look at the city overall, with some of its history and culture, before doing a brief dive into each of the city districts. Finally, we top the episode off with a look at some ancient ruins beneath the city and what that might imply for the Huana peoples living in the region.

This week's episode we discuss A TALKING SWORD!! Yep, that's right. We look at the story behind Modwyr, and her "owner", Yngfrith. It makes for an interesting tale, and also some good audio clips.

Warning: Major spoilers for Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire in this episode.
This week's episode discusses the lost city of Ukaizo, which is an ancient city of mythology and legend in the Huana culture (the tribes that live in the Deadfire Archipelago, the setting for the second Pillars game). What Ukaizo represents to Huana (but also the other factions in play during Deadfire) is more than just a city with gold.

This week's episode follows up on our series looking at the "History of Eora" anthology from the second Pillars game. The theme for today's tomes: Engwith. Looking at some of their origins, their political ties, and cunning hubris.

This week we return to the ever-loved off-screen Companion adventures from the first Pillars game. These companion-only adventures tell stories throughout the world of Eora, and offer interesting insights into the lore, as well as offer good inspiration for Adventures in your own table-top RPGs.
Topics on this episode feature devices that can perfectly duplicate other items; as well as trying to locate hidden and advanced astronomical research data about Eora's two moons.

This week's episode looks at explaining why it is we can read stories of people, places, or events within the item descriptions of unique weapons/armor within the Pillars games, and Avowed. As well, we contrast the minor diferences seen between those two series.

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their upcoming action RPG: Avowed.
This week's episode focuses on two (of the four) companions our Avowed player character ("The Envoy") will be able to travel with: MARIUS and YATZLI. Both of these characters have their own ancestry and background, some of which we can tie to lore from the Pillars of Eternity games. As well, I dive back into Grounded (for those that care).

This week's episode caps off the lore from last week (St. Waidwen & Saint's War) by talking about the Godhammer Bomb (the thing that ended the Saint's War...and St. Waidwen, I suppose), the Dozens (a faction which arose from a dozen self-sacrificing soldiers), and what REALLY happened at Evon Dewr bridge (where the bomb was detonated).

This week's episode is all about the Saint's War (a monumental and paradigm changing moment within the history of Eora) and the key figure in that war: St. Waidwen (who was apparently inhabited by one of the gods of this world: Eothas).

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their upcoming action RPG: Avowed.
This week's episode is about the beloved companion from both Pillars of Eternity games: "Edér Teylecg". We discuss his story from before we meet him in Pillars 1, and follow his narrative right up until the end of Deadfire.
Spoilers pertaining to his side quests are in this episode, however they are well telegraphed if you want to listen to some of the episode spoiler-free.

Boy howdy is this episode a long one. But hey, there was ALOT to go over. If you're new this show, World of Eora, is about Pillars of Eternity & Avowed (since they both share the same fantasy world). Mostly I focus on lore, today I'm putting a balanced focus on news and lore.
Now, here's the thing (and I say this at the start of the episode) - because this episode is uncharacteristically long, I'm not going to have another episode up next week. Simply so that those of you who budget their podcast time can catch up. As well, though, it's a good time for me to take a week of with my family. I've been considering taking the week of a stat holiday off of recording anyways, so this is a good chance to try that.
Anyways, so, listen to this as fast or as slow as you want, there isn't an episode next week. Hope y'all enjoy!

Hi Everyone,
With a personally busy week and weekend combined with the MASSIVE amount of stuff we saw for Avowed this week, I simply cannot keep up with all of it (I haven't even seen all the videos all the way through or read/skimmed all the articles yet). So, I'm making the decision to post-pone a full episode until next week to do an overview of it all.
That said, I caught ONE thing amongst all the news that caught my attention. A weapon in Avowed called "Drawn in Winter" shares a similar naming scheme to a Pillars of Eternity dagger called "Drawn In Spring"; the funny thing is... the lore written in Drawn in Spring's item description has something to do with the Living Lands... mayhaps it describes something we could find in Avowed?

This week's episode is about a rather important nation in the "new world", called READCERAS. Originally the colony of Aedyr, and then the Divine Kingdom of Readceras, this nation has it's own interesting origins/history that leads to one of the most important events in recent history (in relation to Pillars 1): The Saint's War.

This week's episode is a continuation of the "History of Eora" series I am plinking away at, where we look at the esoteric in-game "History of Eora" lore-books from the Forgotten Sanctum DLC in the second Pillars games. This week, I focus on Dyrwood related tomes (Dyrwood being the setting for Pillars 1), which results in a shorter episode (which I do on purpose, just getting back into the swing of things post-vacation). We learn about the very first Hollowborn (and what it is) as well as the inciting events that founded the nation of Readceras.

Hey, I'm on vacation this week, so no new full episode...BUT I didn't wanna leave y'all hanging so here's a quick little episode about one giant piece of news, followed by two minutes of me making mistakes in a few podcast episodes over the many months of this show's existence. I hope (some of) you will enjoy it.

This week's episode is regarding a Wael-affiliated faction (Wael being the god of dreams/mysteries/secrets/revelations) "The Hand Occult", whose primary focus is the control of flow of esoteric knowledge.

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their upcoming action RPG: Avowed.
This week's episode I dive into the in-game "History of Eora" anthology, which as been requested for quite a while. I don't do all 16 entries of these books in this episode, I just pick the ones I think could be related to Avowed / Living Lands in some way. It gets pretty interesting, and we draw some connections which might be seen in the game of Avowed.
I *will* be doing future episodes on the other 12, but likely in just 4-book segments, done topically.
