Queen of Shadows Podcast - Episode 1

Previously:

In our previous episode, the prologue, Eilwen and her twin brother Aron were both only 15 years of age. They discover that Eilwen's ailing mother has kept in her possession for many years, a finely carved box, and in that box is a cloven crown of gold with a crimson ruby shorn down the middle. This is the lost crown of the royal line of Queens from generations ago when these lands were first settled by her forebears. Eilwen finds out that she is in actuality of the royal line as was her mother before her, both are displaced queens to a lost kingdom and throne. Her mother urges Eilwen to seek the other half of the crown, promising her that the lands will unite under the one of royal descent who bears the two halves. Aron, with some convincing from his mother, vows to protect Eilwen in this quest. Eilwen's mother promises to answer her daughter's questions but upon sleeping, never awakens and dies in the night.
