Better late than never I say! We apologize for the delay, but we got our issues resolved and present to you the first present to you listeners as year-long fans of the show. You’ve heard the origin story of how TamTu and Sooraya met during the show many times before; long before we actually started the podcast this project was in the making. Unfortunately, we don’t forsee any other follow-ups to this in the near future, but it should hopefully be enjoyable!

Hyozan Banner

The story of TamTu and Sooraya is entwined deeply in that of Hyozan. This is the beginning of their adventure together. This is their story. This the beginning of Hyozan’s Legacy.

Before you actually listen to this 20-minute audio drama, check out the following prologue pieces! Prologue 1 covers TamTu as a young orphan of war, prologue 2 tells the story of Sooraya’s first steps as a Warrior years later. The last prologue story actually happens during the course of the main story!

PROLOGUE 1: A White Mage is born.

10 years ago… West Ronfaure… An Elvaan knight-in-training, Ballie is travelling the forests of Ronfaure with her sister Mikaela. They stumble upon a torn down cottage, finding the bodies of a boy…and his mother. Download here (MP3, 1.8 MB) Running time: 2:00mins

PROLOGUE 2: Destined.

Recent past… Following the death of her father, the young warrior Sooraya tries to become stronger, living up to the name of the great hero Rostam. She dives head-deep, maybe too deep into Ranperre’s tomb… Download here (MP3, 1.8MB) Running time: 1:58mins

PROLOGUE 3: SHEEP.

Present Time A young Taru wandering the fields of La Theine Plateau is training to become a powerful black mage. He successfully defeats an Orc and enjoys the spoils of victory. Unfortunately…it’s short-lived. Download here (MP3, 1.5MB) Running time: 1:36mins
