“ | We return now to the sentencing of Lord Arum, here accused of “breach of contract,” “destruction of things that belonged to him but really sort of belonged to all of us when you think about it,” and “criticism.” Lord Arum! | ” |

Second Citadel - The Spiral Sage (Part 1) is the twenty-eighth episode of the second season of The Penumbra Podcast. It was released September 25th, 2018.
Overview[]
Far, far to the north of the Second Citadel lies the Terminus, a sacred or magical ocean (depending on who you ask), a place of power where world-changing things happen... and where monsters bicker for order and entertainment.
Sir Caroline and Rilla are deep in monster country, now: deep enough that the human tales of this land are fuzzy and indistinct. They've wandered into the land of beasts... and soon they'll find that the rules are a little different here.
