Now, before we dive in, let's hear about another wonderful show on the Don't Split the Podcast Network, Dark Fortunes.

Leave behind the safety of the humblewood and travel down the Tang group coast to the bay

of Palauch, home to both the kingdom of Den and the Serpent domain.

But neither hold the true power of the bay, for that lies in the sea itself and the Pirate Lords that call her tides their own.

The Dread Pirate Captain Bluebeak, Tiberius Fang, Kin the Bladeless, and Gabrielle La Flore, the self-proclaimed Pirate Queen, each one vying

for power over the very tides themselves. But do any of them really have what it takes to hold up the

legacy of the briny bulldog? Tune in each week to find out if our little crew has what it takes to stand up to the pirates of the blood-soaked waters.

Dark Fortune is available every mundane.

iTunes Spotify and Google Play sets up. on we dive in. Last time on Venture Maidens our heroes took to the skies to race away from the growing lightning storm,

only to head first through a portal to the past. The party was split and they had to traverse an abandoned and gigantic keep.

They found a series of journal pages that revealed that they had been propelled all the way back

to the year 23, a whopping 6,000 years ago, when Titans still ruled the lands

and God sought to overthrow them. Everyone had a reunion as they discovered the Keeps

former general had been transformed into one salty statue, and far in the distance they spotted some horrible destructive beam from the sky heading right towards them.

So let's find out what the heck we're going to do next.

Gather round travelers to hear our tale.
