This episode is about Coheed and Cambria's debut album, The Second Stage Turbine Blade. Before you listen, just remember The Mages rule over humankind, the Prise protect the Keywork, and the humans make up the general population of the Fence. Tri-Mage Wilhelm Ryan's rule has lasted for dozens of years and has descended into tyranny. A young female mage, named Mariah, has risen to power on Paris: Earth and represents a major threat to Ryan, as she is gaining followers because she opposes Ryan's rule and demands justice. I need Mayo.
