The Shadow in the Alley (S05E07)

The World Behind the Wood (S06E03)

In S06E03 — The World Behind the Wood, Dire Wood’s distortions deepen from mystery into terrifying pattern. After the revelation of Direth Station and the hidden duties tied to the South Blades, Cullen, Sharael, Cair, Shawn, and DagGar continue south through the strange preserved paths of the forest. But as the orange glow intensifies and the unease around them grows, their journey is interrupted by the arrival of Farthen Feltlen — one of the Original Five, answering Sharael’s call. Farthen brings more than reinforcement. He brings confirmation. His account of moving through a second overlapping world — one filled with war, fractured sky, fleeing creatures, centaurs, and impossible terrain — reveals that the visions in Dire Wood are becoming more than brief glimpses. Something in the forest is layering one reality over another, and it may already be closing in on the camp. As Book 3 unfolds, the danger is no longer only pursuit. It is perception, prophecy, and the terrifying sense that the world behind the wood is pressing through.

Beneath a Broken Luna (S06E02)

In S06E02 — Beneath a Broken Luna, the road through Dire Wood grows stranger, darker, and far more dangerous. With Razor Hunters still behind them, Cullen, Sharael, Cair, Shawn, and DagGar break camp and press deeper into the forest. Along the way, they witness impossible scenes: a brimstone-tainted mirage of centaurs running through phantom fire, an ancient hidden route known as Magi’s Pass, and an old-world ruin that seems tied to something far worse. When Shawn investigates the structure alone, he returns shaken by a vision of a burning world and Luna shattered across the sky. The revelation strikes Sharael hard, and in the aftermath, the company is left with more fear than certainty. What Dire Wood is showing them remains unclear. Memory, prophecy, fracture, or warning — whatever it is, the world feels closer than ever to the brink.

The Thirteenth Point (S06E01)

S06E01 — The Thirteenth Point opens Book 3: Oath Sworn with pursuit, dread, and the first sign that larger powers are moving. After escaping the burning chaos of Larose, Cullen and his companions flee into Dire Wood, a place of unnatural light, shifting dread, and thinning reality. Pursued by Razor Hunters and haunted by the weight of what they’ve already lost, the group is pushed deeper into a forest that feels less like refuge and more like a warning. As Cullen stands watch through the long night, his thoughts turn to bloodshed, duty, Sharael, and the growing power of the Dark Razor. But before dawn breaks, the Oath’s beacon shifts from thirteen points to twelve, revealing a grim truth: one of the White Circle has fallen. A new book begins with flight, fear, prophecy, and a world moving closer to the brink.

The Oath Taken (S05E09)

Finale - The Razor’s hiss comes before the trouble does; I keep my hand near steel and my eyes on the crowd as old rules wake hungry. Sharael carries centuries in her bones and the White Circle’s expectations in her amulet—we carry her and whatever the Razor decides to name rightful. I hold position between a relic that judges intent and a city that remembers blood. In Marta’s house and down the boardwalk, rumours, challengers, and men who smell the Dark Razor gather; Cair, Shawn, DagGar, and Terrance all test the edges of loyalty. Leaving for Silandria feels urgent and fragile—every step could be a challenge, every salute a signal. I try to keep Sharael safe while the contract-bound sword and the Circle’s authority start sorting who stands and who falls. — Listen & Follow: https://feed.podbean.com/tdrc/feed.xml podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-dark-razor-chronicles-streamcast/id1831423259 open.spotify.com/show/6kXMLe2uC8JAoOvZDEsHh2 Explore More: mikecarmel.ca/streamcast New here?
