    Episode 1, Chapter 3. The First Date? When should we go next? 1860, or 1797? 1860 has the advantage of being more precise: we know when Eli Whitney Jr. made his invention, but we don't know exactly when Eli Whitney Sr. made his decision. But 1797 has the advantage of being earlier in the...

    The Talismans of Aerdrim

    It's OK! I, like Ori, am having a wonderful time seeing what happened before I joined up, and seeing what all the PCs and NPCs were like before I met them. And I'm looking forward to seeing how everyone out there EN-World reacts to some of the stuff that happens between now and then ;)
