A series of unfortunate events

Frost is out communing with nature and pondering the nature of poetry with Arth Arust this weekend. That would have been fine, but as it turns out, Faeghleis is also unavailable this week. Again, certainly something we could get past, but then my wife asked me if we should get a baby-sitter and go see [...]

Edit: everything works again! Yay! Sorry guys, but my file server is down. I’m getting my audio files sent to a new one, but this will take a while. Until this is finished, the podcasts will be unavailable to anyone who didn’t download them already. I’ll keep you updated with edits to this post.
