Welcome back to the best formerly lost but now found Library of Elysium, located in the only spot in the world that is half in the Underworld, and half in the Living World.

My name is Asteria Blackwell, and I am the High Priestess of the Library of Elysium. Join me as I journey into the forgotten depths and into a world of tales hidden within these sacred halls.

Like a modern-day Virgil, I have become a guide to this magical space - and in this episode, we unveil the new happenings in the library and Elysium - including the opening of the Ambrosia Cafe inside the library, and who will be offering a range of drinks and treats for all, even vampires and werewolves!

We also discuss the 2,524th City Dionysia festival happening later this summer - one that promises a wonderful selection of amazing theatrical performances. And no one will get eaten by lions this year! Fantastic!

And as always, Big Midge the Oracle will bring a fresh round of answers to your inquiries, and she'll give us an exclusive update on her romance with Brunhild, and maybe hint at a big milestone as well.

And last but not least, we'll discuss why Charon, ferryman of the dead, is unexpectedly in town (It's my fault, apologies in advance) and we'll hear a tale from the rare soul who has been with him every day for the past millennia.

Don't miss this episode!

My name is Asteria Blackwell, and I am the High Priestess of the Library of Elysium - a library once lost for eons but now found. Join me as I journey into the forgotten depths and into a world of tales hidden within these sacred halls.

Like a modern-day Virgil, I have become a guide to this magical space - and in this episode, we travel to the darkest depths where the library's beating heart lives on. This is not a pleasant story, it's a story of scars and regret, but perhaps, after today, it may unfold into something new.

This tale has left a permanent mark on my own heart, so proceed with caution around your own. The task of remembering can be a heavy one...

But!Before we venture into such depths, we will catch up on the latest news from Elysium, and also get a fresh batch of oracles from Big Midge. Please join me, for you are meant to be here.

Imagine stumbling upon an ancient treasure trove of stories, whispered into being by none other than the goddess Athena herself. That's exactly the journey I, Asteria Blackwell, invite you to partake in as we reveal the extraordinary Elysian Library's emergence from the folds of myth and time. Through the expanse of The Underworld, I chased whispers and legends to where our library had been lost. The poignant reunion that unfolds is a testament to resilience, and the undiscovered stories within are a siren's call to all who yearn for the wisdom of the ages.

This episode is a celebration, not just of the library's homecoming, but of the stories it safeguards—from celestial songs to the chronicles of eternal spirits. Come with me as we explore the vast living tapestry that is the Lost Library of Elysium.
