Late to the party, but I am overwhelmingly touched and thankful for this story and for all of you for doing this.
Thanks for listening :)
A question that I've had for so long, and probably missed something somewhere: why does Sindri change the name of the God he worships from S1 (Pelor) to S2 (Celegon)? I've been thinking about this for years😂
WotC hit us with an “informal legal inquiry” - which was an hour long meeting with a bunch of lawyers. We changed everything at the start of S2 following that meeting… everything being that god and any other references to WotC content
This continuation of season 2 has been incrediblly satisfying!
