Once upon a time, a group of curious story tellers breathe life into epic tales set in

the wide fantasy world of Alexandria.

This is Liam O'Brien here to welcome you to Critical Role.

We'll dive into the story in just a moment, but first a few notes.

This is the audio-only version of our broadcast that streams Thursdays at 7pm Pacific over

on twitch.tv slash critical role and youtube.com slash critical role.

If you subscribe to our twitch channel, you can watch the video on demand immediately

after the broadcast, and it's also available Mondays at 12pm Pacific on youtube.

And of course, for all you wonderful podcast listeners, freshly minted episodes release

right here on the Critical Role podcast network one week after our broadcast on Thursdays.

With all that said, let's get into the story.
