Vorthos Audio Files

Hi, I'm yoshiislander. Thank you so much for giving this podcast a chance and a listen. Where else would you be able to hear a consistently bad British-Austrailian accent attempted by an American and published shamelessly? Anyway, that's actually my point-- I wanted to bring the "reading to your like your parents might have" experience back into your adult life while you were on your commute, or in the comfort of your home, while you build a deck, or get ready for bed. And if you parents never read to you, then I'll be happy to be the one that does. If you like this first installment please feel free to listen to the rest of the story written by the prolific and fantastic fantasy author, Brandon Sanderson, already finished and published under my series titled "Children of the Nameless," and you could find it in the same place you found Vorthos Audio Files. And if you like me, you can play Magic the Gathering with me live on Twitch, Sunday evenings, Pacific Standard Time, @yoshiislander.

We left off with Tacenda getting caught in the man of the manor's room, after an attempt to assassinate him after he killed everyone in Tacenda's village. I think her reaction is fair. But who is the man of the manor, really? Where did he come from? Who is Miss Highwater? What will happen to Tacenda? Let's find out, shall we?Play Magic with me on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/yoshiislanderRead along with the FREE Children of the Nameless PDF by Brandon Sanderson: https://media.wizards.com/2018/downloads/novella/Children_of_the_Nameless.pdfSupport the show

Heya, I'm yoshiislander and you're listening to Vorthos Audio Files, the podcast where I read to you Magic the Gathering stories for your relaxation, while flavoring your knowledge of the multiverse.You're listening to episode 3 of the Children of the Nameless series. Thanks for being here! If you dig this podcast, you'll probably dig playing Magic the Gathering with me live on Twitch, Sunday evenings, Pacific Standard Time, @yoshiislander. Last episode we left off with Tacenda threatening the man of the manor with inconvenience-- that is, she promised that he would never get another nap again, whether she was dead or alive, she would haunt his life by sending heroes in his direction. Annoying the rest of his  existence until she got what she wanted. Reminds me of Dr. Strange and Dormamu. Clash of the multiverses. I'd watch that crossover. Anyway,let's see what happens next.Play Magic with me on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/yoshiislanderRead along with the FREE Children of the Nameless PDF by Brandon Sanderson: https://media.wizards.com/2018/downloads/novella/Children_of_the_Nameless.pdfSupport the show

In the skirmish we found out a bit more about how Davriel got his powers via sucking them out of people, and we got to know more about each demon. We also found out Miss Highwater's true demon name, "Voluptara," and she seemed disturbed about it. Why? Moreover, we're learning just how human Davriel truly is-- it seems he really cares about his demons. Interesting. Let's find out what where this leads. Play Magic with me on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/yoshiislanderRead along with the FREE Children of the Nameless PDF by Brandon Sanderson: https://media.wizards.com/2018/downloads/novella/Children_of_the_Nameless.pdfSupport the show

Hello friends, I'm yoshiislander and you're listening to Vorthos Audio Files, the podcast where I read to you Magic the Gathering stories for your relaxation, while flavoring your knowledge of the multiverse.You're listening to episode 5 of the Children of the Nameless series. Thank you for being here. If you like this series so far, you'll likely enjoy playing Magic with me live on Twitch, Sunday evenings, Pacific Standard Time, @yoshiislander.Last chapter the novel surprised us when we found out that the prioress and Davriel actually have an existing contract together, and Rom  has a history with Voluptara-- I mean, Miss Highwater-- I may or may not ship it. Anyway, after borrowing the prioress's ability to sense and anchor spirits, now Davriel is on his way to save his villagers, but for self-motivated intentions. Davriel will be Davriel. If only he could get his next nap.

Hey there, I'm yoshiislander and you're listening to Vorthos Audio Files, the podcast where I read to you Magic the Gathering stories for your relaxation, while flavoring your knowledge of the multiverse.Welcome to episode 13, and the first installment of the Zendikar arc: With the Eldrazi loose on Zendikar, Gideon Iora and the future Gatewatch fight for the survival of the plane aided by the Planeswalker Kiora. Learn how the Gatewatch was founded during the massive battle at the arc's conclusion.If you're listening to this series, you'll probably enjoy playing Magic with me, live on Twitch, Sunday evenings, Pacific Standard Time, @yoshiislander. The link is in the shownotes.Our first installment takes us into a side story following Kiora. Merfolk Planeswalker Kiora came to Theros during the events of Theros block and the novel Godsend. She was—and is—on a quest to find the greatest denizens of the seas of many worlds. Kiora hopes to return to her native Zendikar and fight against the world-devouring creatures called the Eldrazi with the help of her summoned allies. But she will not return until she has found a weapon worthy of the fight.Kiora arrived on Theros during the Silence, a time when the gods of Theros were magically barred from interfering in the mortal world. She took full advantage of this circumstance, posing first as an avatar of the sea god Thassa, then as the mythic rareal navigator Callaphe. The native merfolk, called tritons, were desperate for any sign of their god's return, and many of them embraced Kiora's claims.Elspeth Tirel and Ajani Goldmane, meanwhile, sought to journey into Nyx to stop the ascended Planeswalker-god Xenagos. They recovered Callaphe's ship, the Monsoon, but they needed a navigator. "Callaphe" soon arrived, and the trio set out for Kruphix's temple at the edge of the world. Like Callaphe herself, however, their journey was not what it seemed. The Monsoon was a living creature, and it—not Kiora—knew the way to the edge of the world. Kiora had a different destination in mind, and instead urged the Monsoon to take them to the legendary lost city of Arixmethes—which she knew was not a place, but a massive living creature with an entire city built upon it.The novel Godsend followed Elspeth and Ajani's path into Nyx, leaving Kiora's tale behind. When we last saw Kiora, she was locked in combat with Thassa herself, and the outcome of that battle has been unknown—until now.Cue the story.Play Magic with me on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/yoshiislanderRead along FREE on the official Magic the Gathering site: https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/magic-story/drop-drop-2015-05-20Support the show

The link is in the shownotes.Our second installment takes us over a thousand years ago, when one woman stood between her world and the brink of destruction. The kor Planeswalker Nahiri, called the Lithomancer, helped imprison the Eldrazi on her home plane of Zendikar over 6,000 years ago. Planeswalkers in those days were ageless and virtually immortal, and Nahiri had no intention of leaving Zendikar unguarded. She settled in to keep watch over the Eldrazi titans' prison and waited.And waited.And waited.Until things changed. The Eldrazi stirred. Nahiri woke.This was not the great reawakening of the Eldrazi seen in the storyline of Rise of the Eldrazi—the titans themselves remained imprisoned, even as their lineages ravaged Zendikar. This was around a thousand years earlier, and it might have led to a great rising…were it not for Nahiri standing in the way.Cue the story.
