Realis 05: Feast at the Citadel Bein 04

This episode carries content warnings for body horror and military violence

On a moon of muddy histories, none is as unclear as that of the Citadel Bein. There are, in fact, no records of a fortress ever being raised on the hill above the lake. But when you cannot find the roots, find the branches: Date the changes in county-wide taxes. Track the yearly increase in travel during the harvest season. Re-read the stories of the pigs and the soil and cross-reference the lyrics of the major rondeaux. Ah, do you see it now? A feast hall. And its cellar.

Hosted by Austin Walker (@austinwalker on bluesky)

Featuring Art Martinez-Tebbel, Keith J Carberry and Ali Acampora

Produced by Ali Acampora

Music by Jack de Quidt (available on bandcamp)
