Show Notes

We, and Raistlin, meet Astinus of Palanthas, the immortal chronicler of the world of Krynn and keeper of Palanthas's library. Raistlin's escape to Palanthas worked though it has left him very weak and close to death. He hopes to find a means to save his life within the library. Raistlin struggles to find what he seeks, near death he is visited by Astinus. Their conversation inadvertently reveals to the young wizard that he is not alone, and leaves Astinus troubled. Laurana, Tas, and Flint are also in Palanthas, Tas even saw Raistlin arrive but does not realize it. They, and we, learn the dark history of the city's Tower of High Sorcery.

We ask you, the listener to, send in questions you might have about the Chronicles for a future episode. Caramon, Tika, Tas and Berem find themselves in the dungeons below the Dark Queen's Temple in Neraka. Berem is not handling imprisonment well… They might have been able to overpower their guards and escape if Gakhan, Kit's fixer, hadn't also arrived in the dungeons at the same time, looking for them. More specifically, looking for Berem, who he confirms is the 'Green Gemstone Man' that Takhisis seeks. Above them, in the temple itself, Tanis waits for his introduction to the Dark Queen. We learn that Toede has been killed and the dragonarmies expelled from Kenderhome. Berem kills Gakhan and escapes the Companions below, separating in the hopes of allowing Berem to do whatever it is he needs to do here. Tanis comes face to face with Takhisis and Laurana…
