Phone rings, door chimes, in comes company. The Italians call it "hospitaliano," that open armed attitude that makes guesting and having guests molto fun. Whether you're hosting, being hosted, or hosting again because you forgot the first time, always remember, it’s dangerous to refuse a guest, and sometimes worse to be one.

Behold! A generous teaser of our first "Interlude," an in-world canon one-shot where the cast gathers to create, expand, and play hitherto unseen people and places within the world of Umora. It is a profound pleasure to welcome you to the modest, but beloved, amphibious hamlet of Twelve Brooks, on the very cusp of its (regionally) famous midsummer revel. You are not going to BELIEVE who they named Great Bullfrog this year.
For the full Interlude, join us by the fireside at patreon.com/worldsbeyondnumber
Starring Lou Wilson, Aabria Iyengar, Erika Ishii, and Brennan Lee Mulligan
Produced by Taylor Moore
Edited and Designed by Jared Olson
And featuring an original score and live saxophone performance from our first guest composer (!) Joseph David Spence

Lou invented a game called Bag It or Tag it where he generates random characters and the other cast members decide to bag them or tag them. We play it on the Patreon feed from time to time. People like it very much. Here, in its public debut, is the narrative RPG storytelling masterpiece Bag It or Tag It. If you enjoy this (good! smart!) you'd be a fool to not join us by the fireside on our Patreon.
This Bag it or Tag It Public Extravaganza was Edited and Designed by Kodiak Sanders

The gang is scattered. Bridges are burned. Where friends falter, new allies grow like mighty oaks. There are wars and rumors of wars, but be not afraid, sisters. We are all on our way to somewhere. Whether we like it or not.

Tick tock. Tick tock. What time is it? How much is left? Can we have five more minutes? The gang's investigation has pierced the veil of the Citadel, and peering back at them through the penumbra is the great iron face of a clock, hands moving up and down, rotating and returning like the silent islands in the sky. Hands that hold you back, spin you round, or throw you, gasping.

History, almost everybody's got some. Very hard to get rid of. Keeps repeating itself. If you're lucky, and work hard, you can just maybe learn from it, but you're gonna need a team. A family. You're gonna need allies. And if you have any extra of those, lemme know...it's for a friend.

Wars and rumors of wars. Thrilling new weapons to titillate the thanatos urge of even the most inured imperial citizen. Heroes-to-be assemble and depart. While the Citadel mobilizes for battle, the gang hits the books. Names ancient and new swim to the sun dappled surface of understanding, the grand picture ever clearer. Careful though: the books do, occasionally, hit back.

Names are great. They let people know what to call things. You can read them, write them, put them on a list. If you know someone's name you can send them things, invite them places, say it quietly, in wonder or fear. A name can stick in your mouth like butter or blood. You can make one up, get a new name, do whatever you want. No downsides. None.

Reunited, the gang must now face, waste, and taste the avalanche of revelation and experience that the Citadel provides. This is why we run.
Miss us? We missed you! Look, we got you something: The Witch Class for Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition. Yeah, the one Erika plays! You HAVE been listening! It's really fun, it's beautifully put together and it's one of the many, many incredible things you'll get when you join our Patreon. Come on in comrades, the water (Witch Class for D&D 5e) is fiiiine.

Nothing ends. Everything begins.
Thus concludes chapter one (1) of The Wizard, The Witch, and the Wild One. The world of Umora will see you in October! But WE're not going ANYWHERE. If you are not already a member of the patreon you are going to tremendously regret that over the next few weeks. Don't be a "Regretful Jeb", come join us! And follow us on "social" (yikes) to get updates and calendars and schedules for everything coming out over the break. So much stuff, we probably shouldn't even call it a break. I need a vacation from this vacation!
This episode featured a song called The Rain Road, with music by Taylor Moore and lyrics by Taylor Moore and Brennan Mulligan. Look at us, like Hall and Oates over here!
We had wonderful help with the choral arrangement from composer and choir director Héctor Muñoz (available for hire!) and the Macraphona Choir: Camila Chaij (solo), Micaela Roldán Juan Leoni, and Nahuel Camargo

Here we are, at the altar, and who could object to these sacred vows? Promises promises. Easy to break'em easy to make'em. What's your word worth, anyway? Do you mean what you say? Can we forgive those who trespass against us, or do they, like us, deserve what they get? And who's gonna give it to em, you? It's bad over here, sure, but the only way out is through. Any volunteers?
