Slay the Stars

This is the last episode before we begin our mini-arcs.   Zem and Char set up their plans for the end game. Our friends split up, heading to all corners of the known world, searching for anything that could help them save Vela and this celestial hub.   Per somnia, ad astra!

Zem and Char's political relationships are tested. These are not the same characters we met in episode 1...   Thank you for listening. Per somnia, ad astra!

The end is here.   We are about to launch into arc 3 of campaign 1. If you have questions for us, send them on social media or at patreon.com/slaythestars - We'll get to them after episode 94. All will be revealed.   Thank you for sticking with us. Per somnia, ad astra!

Bad news, everyone. We had some technical difficulties, and this episode is going to be short.   Good news: What we salvaged? It's delicious.   More to come. Per somnia, ad astra.

Zem and Char love talking their way out of situations. Eventually, they'll have to make good on their promises.   While Lorhn seeks his vengeance, Talia comes face to face with her unknowable past.   The epic fight continues. Per somnia, ad astra.

Hey, all. We're all sick, and episode 90 will have to wait for two more weeks. But in the meantime, we recorded this little snippet so you'll know what the heck is going on during the encounter with Adria. Trust me, it's going to be cool.   Also! We have a poll up on https://www.patreon.com/slaythestars where you can vote on our next big side project. Don't miss your chance to decide what stories we tell within the world of Slay the Stars.   Thank you for listening. And as always, per somnia, ad astra!

Uncut is a misnomer. This episode has many cuts. We were a mess. There is a reason we don't record remotely.    But here it is in all its glory. Episode 89. It's really... the cat's meow.   Per somnia, ad astra!

Back to the beginning, folks. Leah has been playing the long game, and it's almost time to put all the cards on the table.   New artwork is coming soon. You can see it early on Patreon.com/slaythestars or wait for it to release to everyone on 2/18/25. I promise... You're going to love it.   Per somnia, ad astra!

Lorhn is overwhelmed by revelations about exactly whom he and his new companions are planning to rescue.   You might want the map of Vela for this one. It's available on SlaytheStars.com.   Per somnia, ad astra!

Our group decides the best path leads into the caves of Lyra where they hope to find the White Queen and some hope for defeating Adria.   Welcome to Slay the Stars 2025, all! This is going to be a wild year, and we are glad you're here with us. Per somnia, ad astra!

Life is about choices. Some are harder than others.   This will be our last episode of 2024! We'll be taking 12/24/24 off to spend time with our families, and we'll be back in January to celebrate the New Year with more Slay the Stars shenanigans.    We want to wish you all happy holidays and fulfilling new years. We love you all. Thank you for your continued support of this little story that we love so much.   Per somnia, ad astra!

We finally see Zem, Char, Tali, and Lorhn come together.   And oh! - The cliffhanger.

Hopefully the title doesn't give too much away. Our new (and old) characters aren't ready for what's to come.   Curious what Lyra looks like? We have started creating the world map, and you can find it on our website: https://www.slaythestars.com/   Get ready. Things are only getting crazier. Per somnia, ad astra!

Talia and Lorhn set off on their quest to figure out what (or who) has come to Lyra.   Thank you for listening and supporting us! Per somnia, ad astra! 

Last week, we met Arthur's newest creation, Lorhn. This week, we're spending some time with Jenn's alternate personality, Tali.    We struggled at the end, guys. We couldn't remain serious.
