Transcript for 5.16: Second Citadel--The Indomitable Duelist (Part 2)

Hi, Travis. Kevin here, and believe it or not, we are cruising towards the end of the Juno and second Citadel series, which is wild. That's a lot throughout my head around. Hopefully it's not news to you that this is the final season of Juno and second Citadel, but if it is welcome, we only have a few stories left. So what we wanted to do is we wanted to sort of give you a broad outline of what the release schedule for those stories will be. If you are subscribed to our online newsletter, which is on Patreon, this is all going to be repeating information. If you're not subscribed to our online newsletter, why not? It's free. Just head on over to patreon.com slash to put on a podcast. You can join. You can follow us for free. And every other week or so, you'll get access to a traveler's log, a newsletter, where we update you on news and Harley and I write a little thing about our creative process each time. And we give you recommendations for things we've been watching reading playing. You get some recommendations from the cast and crew. It's a great time. And especially where the These shows are coming to a close fairly soon if you want updates on what we're planning next. What we're going to do next because we are not disappearing off the face of the planet, at least it's not a my schedule. I'm not planning and disappearing off the face of the planet. The best way to do that is to follow us over there because we will keep you updated every step of the way. So if you are morning, like I am, the endings of these shows and you are looking forward to the next thing. Make sure you go on over to patreon.com slash the penoverpodcast, join us for free. That's enough, uh, himming and or highing, though. Let's jump into it. Let's talk about the release schedule through rest of the season. So these are broad dates over the course of April to May. You can expect the next second citadel story, the fall parts one and two. From May to June, you can expect another Juno story. I'm not going to give you the title yet. You're going to have to be patient. Then from June to July, we'll be the second citadel finale. And the end of July slash early August will be the Juno steel finale. That is how close we are. We are cruising towards, end of July early August. This eight year set of stories is coming to an end, which is wild. It's hard for me to wrap my head around. Because we are so close to the end, I do have to ask if you have ever thought about supporting the Pneumbron Patreon, if you've ever thought about supporting us financially, if you have a friend or a family member or anybody else who has thought about supporting us financially, now's the time. It is not easy for me to ask for money, it's tough. But I do have to say our support is flagged a little bit over the course of the season on Patreon. And we are sort of right on the knife's edge of being able to continue to do this and being able to do the next things that we want to do, the next big secret projects that we want to do. We get exit surveys from Patreon that say why people have stopped pledging. And for the vast majority of everybody, it has been financial situations changing. It's a tough time to be a person right now. So really don't stretch yourself past a point that is safe for you to pledge or up your pledge. I would I would feel just awful if anybody did that. But if you have any spare income that you're willing to send our way of our stories have meant something to you, if you want to show us that they've meant something to you, if you want to see the next thing that we make. Now's the time. And you get access to, at this point, a frankly insane amount of bonus content. At the $7 level, you get access to all of the production scripts, which are always full of bonus stuff behind the scenes stuff. And at the $10 level, you get access to like hundreds of hours of commentaries at this point that range from actually serious. This is how we make the show type stuff. and extremely silly breathing with the boys, Lord Arm fan cast type stuff. So it would just mean the world to us if you could support us and help us out. It is no exaggeration to say that the only thing that I want to do with my life is make stories, make stuff for you all to see. And that's only going to be possible if our support keeps up. And I know it's going to, it's going to fall a little bit after the end of June on a second, so I don't know. So, anything that you can do to show that you are going to stick with us, that you're going to help us out, will make our next projects more likely stronger, better, harder, better, faster, stronger, et cetera. And thank you so much. If you're already pledging, thank you so much for listening. It's crazy that we've got to do this as long as we have. And I'm so, so grateful for it. That's enough of that, though. You all have a story to get to. So, I will see you later, and I'll see you in not too long for the finale's to these stories. Good evening, Traveller. And welcome to the Penumbra. Tonight's tale is the indomitable duelist.

The Senate has voted to allow you an audience, humans. Follow me.

make way for the human emissaries of Lord Ahram of the swamp of Titans' blooms. Humans, do you understand why you stand before us today?

Senator Gunklar will wait until he is called upon to voice his opinion. Continue, human. I don't think that one likes us.

Senator Prima Donna of the Sirens has the floor.

Senator Primadana will be reminded that after last year's Viasco, there will be no singing allowed on the Senate floor. Mind control magic impinges on personal freedoms.

Reluctantly, Senator Guncler of the Muckman has the floor.

Senator, big shot of the Turpsacores has the floor?

No, we could not. Senator R692-352 of the tin contraptions has the floor.

It is also the opinion of many senators including myself. Lord Arram is old and a prodigy for his punishment. At this time, at the front, at the front, at the front.

Quiet please quiet! Senator Fuzz was of the teddy bear parade has the floor. I would like to motion for all of us to gather around in one big hut. I can't help but it's just so cool. This is a disaster. Maybe later Senator Phas was. First we have to listen to what these filthy humans have to say.

Why it? Senator, a big gross pile of moss of the likenade has the floor. Senator, clock, would you please move the esteemed senators wheelbarrow closer to the soundstone?

Senator Gunkler, you will show respect to a big gross pile of moss. Please continue, Senator.

Senator R692352 of the tin contraptions has the floor.

My gear's turn slower as a flight at a rate of negative 0.02% acceleration per revolution constructs add familiarers will be the first to fall as magic waves die universe. I'm scared.

And the humans laugh those traitor so much. They call them saints. Centuries are fast, and we may only recover whatever relax.

Oh, and favor of the esteemed senator fuzz was his proposal.

All in favor of the esteemed senator snouts proposal. No, no, no, no, no. Then it is decided. The monster Senate will reconvene at dawn with the execution of these human upstarts.

Look at him, right?
