Join me for a rich, spell-laced journey into Litha witchcraft, the element of fire, and the spirit of transformation that rises with the longest day.

El último peldaño (06/06/2025) LA LEYENDA DE BERTA: LA CABEZA DE PIEDRA DE FLORENCIA Las leyendas de personas convertidas en piedra han cautivado la imaginación humana a lo largo de la historia. Desde la mirada petrificante de Medusa en la mitología griega, la bíblica mujer de Lot, convertida en estatua de sal, hasta la misteriosa “Cabeza de Berta” en Florencia, estas historias suelen estar cargadas de simbolismo en forma de relatos que, aunque distintos en contexto y origen, comparten el elemento de la transformación súbita e irreversible, evocando el miedo a lo sobrenatural y la fragilidad del destino humano. La Cabeza de Berta es una enigmática representación de una mujer cuyo rostro petrificado permanece incrustado en la arquitectura de la ciudad, envuelta en leyendas de castigo y destino.. Nuestro colaborador Juan Sánchez, nos trajo los detalles de esta curiosa leyenda enmarcada en la Florencia medieval. Pero no nos quedaremos ahí, daremos un salto a la ciudad eterna, donde en la romana “Isla Tiberina” encontramos un nexo con este misterio. CRÓNICA DE UN CONGRESO PARA LA HISTORIA El III Congreso Nacional de Historia y Misterio ha consolidado su posición como un referente en la divulgación de enigmas históricos y fenómenos inexplicables. Celebrado en el Teatro Geli Albaladejo, el evento reunió a cerca de 600 procedentes de diversos lugares de España. En las ponencias, la historiadora Ana María Vázquez exploró el misterio de las brujas y el psiquiatra José Cabrera abordó la relación entre la vida y el misterio. También se discutieron temas como las supersticiones, por parte del neuropsicólogo Ignacio Martín, los fantasmas de los niños, por el periodista Javier Pérez Campos, los personajes imposibles, a cargo del investigador Gonzalo Pérez Sarró y la ciencia detrás del miedo, por el tecnólogo Luis Uriarte. El congreso culminó con una mesa redonda sobre Casos y testimonios de fenómenos extraños, con la participación de testigos directos de sucesos inexplicables. La combinación de historia, ciencia y misterio dejó a los asistentes con nuevas perspectivas y muchas incógnitas por resolver. Con el presidente de la Sociedad de Investigaciones Biofísicas “Betelgeuse”, de Granada, Francisco Barrera, y colaborador del programa, hicimos una crónica de lo que dio de si este encuentro irrepetible. PRESENTACIÓN DE LA GRAN NOCHE DE LOS OVNIS 2025 Un año mas presentamos una nueva edición de “La Gran Noche de los OVNIs” de “El Último Peldaño”, que llega a su edición número XXXV, en la que volveremos a vigilar los cielos a la búsqueda de objetos voladores no identificados, en una noche cualquiera, como hiciera (y nosotros con él) Antonio José Alés, en el mítico programa “Medianoche” en la Cadena SER, el 14 de agosto de 1979.

We begin with the group's departure to Iwi, where they reunite with their former allies and friends, Cereius, Attros, and a figure named Doctor Honeydew. The reunion is bittersweet as it doesn't leave much time for the group to reconnect, and they notice the varying changes to the group… Cereius' Puppet Master ring has taken a new form, Attros' Mercurial Rod is now his shield/sword and a blue Tressym that the group is informed that is We'Ahqa. With quick pleasantries exchanged, the group known as the Mercurial Avengers, now reunited with Rig and Greyleaf, head off to continue their quests. We go back to last night with the heist, with Arguile running away from the party, trying his best to fight the curse of Lycanthropy that has been placed upon him, with Greyleaf, Duo, and Shanks on his tail. Meanwhile, back at Mr. Edge's home, with the crowd and city guard now gathered, the group, mostly Zechs and Galahad, tried to reassure the guards that they were doing a service and put a large chunk of the cult to rest permanently. Back to the chase, Shanks and Greyleaf eventually catch up to a partially transformed Arguile and manage to calm him down, essentially exhausting him into a state that is less harmful to himself and those around him. Though it wasn't easy and got hairy, they are relieved and make plans for what to do with their half-transformed companion. With brief communication from the group and provisions provided via Duo, the three rogues make camp for the night.In the morning, Arguile comes to and, with the help of the other rogues, pieces together his eventful evening. Before Shanks can remove the manacles from him, Arguile proceeds to hand them to him and mentions that they'll have to get him new shoes to replace the ones his bestial form destroyed the previous night. The group reconnects, and after Glad removes the curse from Arguile, they begin to make preparations for their journey. They have informed the crew of the Swift Hummingbird of their departure as well as Zechs & Greyleaf's families. The only thing left is to meet up with Rig, who will be their ride for this trip across the planes. We end where we started, friends and allies briefly reunited, and Collateral looking towards Nakoroa, Iwi with wonder and hopes to find Arguile's mother.There's so much happening, and that's where we pick up…Find out what happens next in this episode of the Medusa's Cascade: Collateral Damage!Theme Music is written and performed by EfflorescenceMixed by Thomas Lapierre IIICheck out the show at themedusascascade.com

What begins with the group's usual chaos—hot sauce, fire whiskey, and mischief—quickly shifts as Zechs proposes a risky but calculated plan: speak directly with Malar. With Galahad, Hoshino, and Glad supervising, the tense attempt offers cryptic fragments but reaffirms Zechs' suspicions of Malar's evasiveness regarding his origins and divine ties. Their next steps lead them through confusion between the vineyard and the ritual site but ultimately to a trio of divine effigies representing the Pantheran goddesses. A booming voice demands tithes, and suddenly, Zechs, Arguile, Salix, and Glad are cast into Sloane's Second Age. There, revelations about acceptance and closure, warnings of Malar's rising influence, and whispers of divine conflict build tension. In the present, the rest of the party mobilizes—meeting allies, gathering intelligence, and preparing for a growing war that stretches across timelines.While Zechs' group infiltrates a ritual and witnesses Malar's avatar emerge, Hoshino uncovers his status as a cosmic anomaly, Shanks and Greyleaf extract critical information from a cultist, and Galahad sabotages enemy forces through intoxication rather than violence. All paths converge as Turk is introduced, JM's newest ally and the team shares gathered intelligence, including the emergence of Enich—Arguile's alternate—and rising threats in Gamsby, Luxenborough, and Ors Thamar. As Zechs steels himself to extract Malar's aspect during a gruesome ritual, the party splits: one half faces Malar within, the other guards against Enich outside. The battles are ferocious—divine powers clash, spells fly, wolves swarm, and Zechs and Galahad deliver final, critical blows to their respective foes. With Malar banished and Enich defeated, the exhausted party regroups, though the threat within Zechs remains unresolved.After the final blows are struck, Zechs collapses from spiritual exhaustion. The group brings him to his childhood home to recover while Galahad sanctifies the ritual site, vowing no more sacrifices will occur. That night, the party finally allows themselves rest and revelry, visiting the Faint Mandolin and Jaded Kitty Kat, reuniting with Little G, and deepening bonds with their new ally, Turk. Later, Ickra of the Cloak of Feathers arrives with urgent messages from JM, revealing Argo's recovery, rising fiend activity, threats to Mechfall's arcane core, and a new, rifle-wielding alternate of Arguile. She leaves the party with warnings, updates, and heavy implications—foes old and new are on the move, and despite their recent victories, the storm still brews on multiple fronts.There's so much happening, and we pick up with arc 25, “The Darkness Within”. How will the rest of this story unfold? Find out next time on the Medusa's Cascade: Collateral Damage!

Épisode 2. Cet accord qui peut tout changer. En 2004, la quasi-totalité des pays du monde entier se sont engagés dans une aventure diplomatique hors norme : construire, ensemble, un accord pour protéger l'océan et sa biodiversité. Un projet aussi ambitieux ne se concrétise pas du jour au lendemain, d'autant que les divergences entre États ont posé un défi majeur : comment concilier les intérêts de chacun tout en garantissant la préservation de l'océan et de ses richesses ? Cette aventure diplomatique a duré vingt ans. Vingt années pendant lesquelles des diplomates, des scientifiques, des ONG des quatre coins du monde ont œuvré sans relâche pour créer cet accord dit "l'accord BBNJ", ou Traité international pour la protection de la haute mer et de la biodiversité marine au delà des zones de juridiction nationale.

We open up with the party, resting a bit, and going through their new loot. Ursus gets Thorak's thoughts on his new crown to the group. With rest had, the group continues their dungeon crawl and encounters two cave trolls as Ursus kicks down a door, and Thorak launches two spider legs, like javelins, at one of them, dealing a good bit of damage. The fight ensues with the party as the victors and the trolls as charred remains. The group takes a second to catch their breath. There is a brief discussion about which door to continue through, and Dona informs the party of the direction that her Primeval Awareness has pointed them toward, as Bob gets an urge to pull the lever in the room. Unbeknownst to the group, Bob initially informs them that he is hearing a voice urging him to pull the lever with the unknown function. The group inquires about the sources of these voices and any other information they can gather from Bob regarding them. As this is happening, he continues to walk closer to the lever and tells the party that he really would like to pull this lever. Through slightly tense and more awkward negotiations with Bob, Valen convinces him to back away, but only agrees to Bob's terms of Ursus carrying Bob out of the room, much to Ursus's displeasure. As Ursus carries Bob out the door, Thorak tells Valen that he'll throw a “javelin” at the lever. Upon a hit, they'll run like hell to the other side of the room, towards what they presume is safety. Thorak's attempt fails, but Valen decides that they both have the speed to pull the lever with a long enough rope and get to safety if needed. With the lever pulled, they hear a short, electrical burst-like sound and see nothing happen. With curiosity satisfied, they proceed west in the direction that Dona pointed them toward. The group comes upon a door that Valen has some difficulty lockpicking. As the group is stealthy, thanks to Pass Without Trace from Dona, they remain cautious of the cloakers in the area, preferring not to engage with them. As the cloaks fly away from the leading group towards Thorak, Thorak uses Thaumaturgy to open the door that Chantico and Valen were opening, unfortunately springing an acid trap in the process. As the two take damage and the group proceeds through the doorway, another group of cloakers frightens a number of the party members, and yet another battle takes place bathed in the Daylight spell from Chan's staff. While the party is victorious, they have taken some damage and are getting low on resources. As we close, the party is deciding if they wish to take the hides of the cloakers as materials, which Thorak does, and they use this chance to gather their thoughts and rest yet again before venturing further into the dungeon. There's so much happening, and that's where we pick up…Find out what happens next in this episode of the Medusa's Cascade: Blood and Booze!

Josh is the writer of Gyro and the Argonauts - "the totally (mostly) true story of the first “Greek Geek,” a super fanboy vineyard grape-squisher named Gyro (like the sandwich), who learns there's so much more to the maligned monsters of mythology (such as the CYCLOPS, the MINOTAUR, and even MEDUSA herself), and so much less to his favorite heroes (including Perseus, Heracles, and Pegasus) than he ever dreamed." “With big laughs, big heart, and big monsters, Gyro and the Argonauts is timeless fun for everyone!” – Max Brallier, sandwich expert and author of the #1 New York Times bestselling series The Last Kids on Earth Josh shares the book's origin, his writing process, his journey as a creative and more.

AI slop coming to open source soon 4. Wiz dominance analysis 5. the IKEA effect in cybersecurity 6. LLM model collapse 7. vulnerabilities 8. DFIR reports 9. and fun with LinkedIn and prompt injection! Segment 3: RSAC Interviews runZero Interview with HD Moore Despite becoming a checkbox feature in major product suites, vulnerability management is fundamentally broken. The few remaining first-wave vulnerability scanners long ago shifted their investments and attention into adjacent markets to maintain growth, bolting on fragmented functionality that's added complexity without effectively securing today's attack surfaces. Meanwhile, security teams are left contending with massive blind spots and disparate tools that collectively fail to detect exposures that are commonly exploited by attackers. Our industry is ready for change.

Imprivata interview with Joel Burleson-Davis Organizations in mission-critical industries are acutely aware of the growing cyber threats, like the Medusa ransomware gang attacking critical US sectors, but are wary that implementing stricter security protocols will slow productivity and create new barriers for employees. This is a valid concern, but organizations should not accept the trade-off between the inevitability of a breach by avoiding productivity-dampening security measures, or the drop in employee productivity and rise in frustration caused by implementing security measures that might mitigate a threat like Medusa.

(01:45) Zondag zijn de parlementsverkiezingen in Suriname. Voor het eerst in 45 jaar speelt Desi Bouterse geen directe rol meer. Toch blijft zijn partij, de Nationale Democratische Partij (NDP), onlosmakelijk verbonden met zijn nalatenschap. Hoe worstelt de NDP met de erfenis van Bouterse? We vragen het Ank Kuipers, journalist in Suriname. (14:35) Eind jaren '70 was in het VPRO-radioprogramma De Radiola Improvisatie Salon een revolutie in de muziekindustrie te horen. Iedereen die zelf een bandje had opgenomen, kon die insturen. En dat bandje werd dan zonder selectie of censuur afgespeeld op de radio. Een radicaal idee, maar hoe klonk dat? Marco van Dalfsen is op zoek naar deze ingestuurde cassettebandjes en naar opnames van het programma zelf, voor een erfgoedproject in samenwerking met het Allard Pierson Museum, de Concertzender, Diggin' Demo's en Muziekweb. (23:22) De column van Abdelkader Benali (27:07) De Zuid-Afrikaanse president Cyril Ramaphosa werd deze week door Trump onder vuur genomen over een zogenaamde 'witte genocide'. Waarom komt deze theorie op? En hoe verhoudt het zich tot de geschiedenis van de witte Zuid-Afrikanen die zichzelf de Bittereinders noemen? Te gast is historicus Vincent Kuitenbrouwer. (40:05) Sanne Frequin bespreekt twee historische boeken een museum: Wereldsteden van de Lage Landen - Nadia Bouras, Manon van der Heijden et al. (red.)

The party reconvenes outside Mr. Edge's home, diving into an unusually intense level of planning. Split into two groups—Team Stealth (Shanks, Arguile, Salix) and Team Dragon (Galahad, Zechs, The Turk, Glad)—they prepare for a high-stakes infiltration, with Greyleaf and familiars keeping watch above. Initial observations suggest someone may have beaten them to the punch, prompting a cautious regroup. Arguile and Shanks are sent in for closer reconnaissance. After deciding to implement a version of the "Silent Knight" plan—having Galahad lead while invisible—they prepare to strike. A well-timed Prestidigitation from The Turk sets the stage for the ambush.The first werecreature is dispatched in a brutal display, with Arguile delivering the killing blow to the second. As chaos erupts, Glad casts Bless, Zechs unleashes a barrage of arrows, and the team fights against a growing number of lycanthropic enemies. Shanks and Galahad even fight side by side before Shanks pins a foe, allowing Arguile to finish it off. More enemies pour in from above, forcing the team to abandon stealth entirely. Galahad uses his Conquering Presence to frighten most attackers, while Glad's Magic Missile and Zechs' Jack of All Trades provide ranged support. Outside, Duo informs Zechs that a curious crowd of Tabaxi is forming, adding to the public attention an already chaotic scene.Despite several close calls, everyone bitten resists the curse—until Arguile fails his save and flees the house in a panic, already succumbing to lycanthropy. Zechs orders Duo to follow him, while the rest of the team clears the upper floors. Glad and Zechs take down the remaining enemies with coordinated attacks, and Salix confirms the area is secure. A Detect Magic spell reveals their target is above, and after some searching, they find Mr. Edge holding a Necklace of Fireballs. The item explodes, taking out Edge but sparing the party. As the dust settles, the group finds their reward, contemplates their exit, and wonders what will become of their now-cursed ally, Arguile. There's so much happening, and that's where we pick up…Find out what happens next in this episode of the Medusa's Cascade: Collateral Damage!

Today, Matt and Todd dive into the original classic Clash of the Titans (1981), directed by Desmond Davis and starring: Harry Hamlin, Laurence Olivier, Judi Bowker, Maggie Smith, and Burgess Meredith.One of the most epic adventure films of its time, Clash of the Titans premiered in the summer of 1981, bringing the legendary Laurence Olivier to the screen as Zeus, whose command for the destruction of Argos sets off a thrilling chain of events.The film is best remembered for its groundbreaking special effects, crafted by the master of stop-motion animation, Ray Harryhausen. His work, including the unforgettable Medusa and Kraken sequences, remains influential in fantasy filmmaking.While Clash of the Titans takes heavy liberties with legendary accuracy, it delivers a thoroughly entertaining and timeless experience—a Greek legend reimagined through the lens of English playwrights and Hollywood sensibilities.We hope you love this fantasy classic as much as we do!Matt reviews and ranks more movies including newer ones at LetterboxdYou can find out what he's following on Bluesky @MovieMattSirois.bsky.socialCheck out favorites of what we follow, at: Once Upon a Geek and The Fade Out Podcast As Marcus he reviews all sorts of films but unlike here, they often they range from bad, worse, or terrible at the MovieAsylum of the Weird, Bad and Wonderful.
Zechs regains consciousness following his intense battles with Malar and Enich, slipping into a vivid dream that revisits the night of his childhood sacrifice. This time, the memory is clearer: he remembers around two dozen other young tabaxi present and a once-unidentifiable cloaked figure now unmistakably revealed to be The Constable. With yellow eyes, pale skin, silver-gray hair, and dragon-like scales on his face, The Constable addresses Zechs as "Quill," claiming his actions stem not from malice but destiny. He tells Quill he holds the power to be either salvation or punishment and reassures him that he's done nothing wrong. When a younger Quill asks why he's punishing people, The Constable cryptically explains that they were judged and found wanting. The dream ends as the figure activates a pocket watch, light flooding the scene—just as Zechs jolts awake.Waking in his childhood room, Zechs takes a moment to ground himself, checking for any lingering traces of Malar and mentally updating Duo. He's physically weakened but relieved. After a moment of quiet reflection and guilt over releasing an aspect of Malar, he joins the others and catches up on what transpired during his unconscious state. The group updates him on events, including running into Little G's and naming Turk “The Turk,” and confirms he's only been out for a day. Zechs is surprised to find Iqra still present, and his mother welcomes him back with a powerful embrace. Iqra shares her gathered intel before departing, prompting the party to shift focus toward their next steps.Zechs requests that Greyleaf help him recall what little he can about the other missing children and inform the proper parties as the group decides their next destination: Iwi, as Galahad needs time to prepare to confront his father, the titan, and Antonius in Granzia. They plan to relieve Three Edge—the tabaxi previously visited by “Mr. Scotch” and “Mr. Bonnet”—but first need to speak with Mr. Brave. After learning quite a deal from Mr. Brave about Three Edge, the party leaves coins with a barkeep to keep his cup full and heads to Nymora's gated Farwell Grove. With some gold and light persuasion, the guards inform them where to find their new, unexpected benefactor and promise to look the other way. After sharing a laugh about a brothel incident, the group sets off, eyes on the prize, building their strategy for what promises to be a significant score.There's so much happening, and that's where we pick up…Find out what happens next in this episode of the Medusa's Cascade: Collateral Damage!

desliga del ultimátum que recibió el Listín Diario para que elinara de sus páginas una información en la que Lisandro Macarrulla hijo admitió su responsabilidad en el caso de corrupción Medusa y se compromete a la devolución de bienes por 77 millones de pesos y un apartamento valorado en otros 20 millones a cambio de beneficiarse de una pena de 3 años de prisión suspendida.Que bueno que los Macarrulla no están en eso, pero la realidad es que la información fue borrada y su usted la busca en Listin Diario no existe.Según el levantamiento que hemos hecho desde ayer cuando empezó a circular la denuncia del Listín. Es posible que no sean los Macarrulla aunque ellos fueran los beneficiarios.Las empresas que se dedican al borrado de “historias negras” y que cobran una media de 150 mil dólares por ese trabajo recurren a una serie de estratagemas que inlcuyen el uso de nombres falsos para la remisión de correos de presión (Han llegado a usar los correos de la Comisión Europea) la presión a los proveedores de alojamiento (Es el caso del Listín) y cuando nada de eso funciona crean un mecanismo de alteración que inhibe al algoritmo de google de la informacion buscada o demandada.La oferta de Eliminalia que cambió de nombre hace unos añosny ahora se llama iDataProtección tiene tarifas según las necesidades de sus clientes. Por ejemplo, yo traté de buscar la nota en la que había leido la participación de MVM como cliente de la empresa y ni en los centros espiritistas. Con la asistencia de inteligencia artificial encontré la cita en una página de Puerto Rico que ahorita les voy a mostrar.Ahora que en República Dominicana hay una alharaca de gente que evidentemente no ha leído la propuesta de ley nueva ley de expresión y difusión de pensamiento esta situación cae como anillo al dedo.Saber que una empresa, de muchas, ofrece borrar tu pasado y construirte el futuro resulta en una amenaza y obliga a refugirarse en el papel para lo importante.

Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that would eat Anne Hathaway's toilet french fry. This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out and talk about why the 2019 crime comedy The Hustle Should've Been Gay. This movie is 90 minutes of Anne Hathaway (Josephine) and Rebel Wilson (Penny) flirting in the French Riviera while occasionally committing crimes against men with the help of Jo's policewoman lover (that we're 99% sure lives with her) and a sassy old gay butler. If you're looking for a comedy with sapphic energy that doesn't really require any brain power and isn't incomprehensibly 3 hours long, The Hustle should be at the top of your list. This may be a Should've Been Gay, but lesbihonest, there is not one straight woman in the entire movie. For women who spend a lot of their time seducing men, they really could not be less interested in them. Hell, Josephine doesn't even sleep with any of them! Only Anne Hathaway could convince three obscenely rich men to propose to her without even putting out. She is maybe too powerful– we didn't even flinch at that toilet french fry scene. When Jo isn't radiating sex (without actually having any) in order to swindle some rich guy out of millions, she's parading Penny around on a leash to assert her dominance. Hot. While the vibes for Penny are more chaos-bisexual, Josephine is giving full high femme, lesbian dominatrix energy and we are SEATED. Together, they make a hilarious and surprisingly effective conwoman team. And what could be better than sapphics swindling immoral rich men out of their millions? By the end of the film they are in a full on power-throuple with a man that gives even Penny a run for her money on bi-vibes (and who is a direct descendant of someone whose crime code-name is Medusa- yep, the man-hating snake-haired woman who turns men to stone with one look). As we watched the newly formed polycule sail off into the beautiful Capri sunset with their stolen riches, we just had one thought– The Hustle Should've Been Gay.

Embracing Transformation Under the Scorpio Full Moon This week on the "Everything Is Energy Podcast," host Lisa Marie Haley dove deep into the potent energy of the Scorpio full moon—a time for unveiling hidden truths and empowering our creative consciousness. Here are 3 key takeaways from this transformational episode: ✨ The Power of Medusa's Third Eye (Algol): The star Algol, seen as the blinking third eye of Medusa, symbolizes rebirth, intuition, and seeing beyond illusions. We are all invited to connect with this energy to access deeper truths within ourselves. ✨ Uranus, Pluto & Revolutionary Change: Astrological aspects highlight a call for personal and collective revolution. With sun-Uranus-Algol alignments and Pluto's dynamic role, we're encouraged to trust our intuitive knowing, embrace transformation, and co-create a new reality. ✨ Feminine Energy as Protector and Creator: The lunar conjunction with goddess Juno (Hera) underscores the empowerment and protection of feminine consciousness—for all, regardless of gender. Tapping into this energy supports both personal and collective stability and creativity.

After the fights, Zechs collapses from exhaustion; he's not in harm's way, but shows no signs of waking up. Before leaving the site, Galahad displays a sign ensuring that no more sacrifices will happen here, as per the vow of the Champion of Bahamut. The group takes Zechs to his parents' place so he can rest and wake up in a familiar setting with his parents watching him. The night is young, and after a night like they had, revelry is long overdue. With that, they head out to the Faint Mandolin and enjoy the many drinks the establishment provides, some mood enhancers courtesy of Salix, and the melodic sounds of their new ally, Turk. What is now par for the course for the party, the drinks keep coming, a deep conversation is had, and they run into a familiar face at their next venue, The Jaded Kitty Kat. A wide grin and enthusiastic voice greet the party as Little G is in town and doing some celebrating of his own. The group updates Turk on how they know their associate Little G dubs Turk, THE Turk, which gets a welcome response. Towards the end of the evening, Greyleaf and The Turk discuss their origins, fondness for magic, and Greyleaf's family before heading back to Zechs' parents' place for the night. The following day, in Rinde and Setti's home, the party is joined by a familiar face: Iqra of the Cloak of Feathers. She gives news that she is a messenger for JM as they are otherwise held up, but offers to answer any questions they have. There is an exchange as The Turk works out which JM they're referring to as he realizes that the JM he knew was Mr. Bell, and the JM who sent them was the one who last spoke to the party, presenting as a woman. She tells the party to let Zechs know that Argo is safe and recovering in Nereas, that Cenari received word from the Circle of Friends that are looking into a group known as the Light of Elrin in Luxenborough, and that one of their party members has received the boon from the Daughter of the Flame. Iqra informs Arguile that an army of fiends has overtaken Ors Themar for the first time in history and is making their way toward Nakoroa. Additionally, the Masterful Gains Guild in Gamsby is trying to stop a splinter group known as the Umbral Viel that is trying to disrupt the weave throughout the city. At the same time, some operatives were dispatched from the guild to stop them. None have reported back in and have since gone missing. They say that if Mechfall loses its arcane power, it's the same as putting a lit match next to a powder keg. Upon asking about The Constable and any of his Generals, Galahad is told that The Executioner has also been mentioned as pulling her punches. It's not information they saw firsthand, but they were informed of it. Iqra informs Arguile that Enich is not his only alternate and to beware of the one carrying a rifle with him. We end with some details regarding the Pincushion Maker and the calamities of Sloane.There's so much happening, and that's where we pick up…Find out what happens next in this episode of the Medusa's Cascade: Collateral Damage!

“All of this together shaped how I began to think about mind, not as something to be mastered, but as a landscape of the unspoken whether it was ghosts or griefs or desires that were hard to relinquish. I saw that the ghost was not always an ‘other'. It was often intimate, tied to lost ones, sometimes to unmet desires, to unbearable longings, but in some ways possession was an attempt to keep close what was slipping away. The ghost doesn't just haunt, it feels as if it wants something, and we just have to learn to develop ears to listen to what it wants.” Episode Description: We acknowledge Loewald's concept of 'ghosts becoming ancestors' and consider the similarities and differences with those who hold 'ghosts' to be literal. Shalini shares with us her journey to open herself to the uncertainty and ambiguity of these externalized entities while appreciating both their cultural and intrapsychic sources. We learn of her family's involvement with exorcisms, especially her grandmother's "fearless warmth" and "empathy that saw beyond the terror of the ghosts." She considers the many facets of mind that are represented by 'ghosts' and the essential value of approaching them as guides to the "landscape of the unspoken." Shalini describes a long term engagement that she had with an individual who "taught me to receive the inchoate and horrific...to contain the brokenness and not interpret it away.. and to appreciate the glimpses of beauty in the most grotesque parts of self." Our Guest: Shalini Masih, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and writer, grew up in India amidst priests and healers, witnessing spirit possession and exorcism. Now based in Worcestershire, UK, she holds a Master's degree in Psychoanalytic Studies from Tavistock & Portman, London, and a PhD from the University of Delhi. Mentored by psychoanalysts Michael Eigen and Sudhir Kakar, she's an award-winning scholar of the American Psychological Association. She has taught and supervised psychoanalytic psychotherapists in Ambedkar University, Delhi and in Birkbeck, University of London. Her acclaimed paper, 'Devil! Sing me the Blues', was nominated for Gradiva Awards in 2020. Her debut book is Psychoanalytic Conversations with States of Spirit Possession: Beauty in Brokenness.
