The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their upcoming action RPG: Avowed.
This week's episode caps off the lore from last week (St. Waidwen & Saint's War) by talking about the Godhammer Bomb (the thing that ended the Saint's War...and St. Waidwen, I suppose), the Dozens (a faction which arose from a dozen self-sacrificing soldiers), and what REALLY happened at Evon Dewr bridge (where the bomb was detonated).

This week's episode is all about the Saint's War (a monumental and paradigm changing moment within the history of Eora) and the key figure in that war: St. Waidwen (who was apparently inhabited by one of the gods of this world: Eothas).

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their upcoming action RPG: Avowed.
This week's episode is about the beloved companion from both Pillars of Eternity games: "Edér Teylecg". We discuss his story from before we meet him in Pillars 1, and follow his narrative right up until the end of Deadfire.
Spoilers pertaining to his side quests are in this episode, however they are well telegraphed if you want to listen to some of the episode spoiler-free.

Boy howdy is this episode a long one. But hey, there was ALOT to go over. If you're new this show, World of Eora, is about Pillars of Eternity & Avowed (since they both share the same fantasy world). Mostly I focus on lore, today I'm putting a balanced focus on news and lore.
Now, here's the thing (and I say this at the start of the episode) - because this episode is uncharacteristically long, I'm not going to have another episode up next week. Simply so that those of you who budget their podcast time can catch up. As well, though, it's a good time for me to take a week of with my family. I've been considering taking the week of a stat holiday off of recording anyways, so this is a good chance to try that.
Anyways, so, listen to this as fast or as slow as you want, there isn't an episode next week. Hope y'all enjoy!

Hi Everyone,
With a personally busy week and weekend combined with the MASSIVE amount of stuff we saw for Avowed this week, I simply cannot keep up with all of it (I haven't even seen all the videos all the way through or read/skimmed all the articles yet). So, I'm making the decision to post-pone a full episode until next week to do an overview of it all.
That said, I caught ONE thing amongst all the news that caught my attention. A weapon in Avowed called "Drawn in Winter" shares a similar naming scheme to a Pillars of Eternity dagger called "Drawn In Spring"; the funny thing is... the lore written in Drawn in Spring's item description has something to do with the Living Lands... mayhaps it describes something we could find in Avowed?

This week's episode is about a rather important nation in the "new world", called READCERAS. Originally the colony of Aedyr, and then the Divine Kingdom of Readceras, this nation has it's own interesting origins/history that leads to one of the most important events in recent history (in relation to Pillars 1): The Saint's War.

This week's episode is a continuation of the "History of Eora" series I am plinking away at, where we look at the esoteric in-game "History of Eora" lore-books from the Forgotten Sanctum DLC in the second Pillars games. This week, I focus on Dyrwood related tomes (Dyrwood being the setting for Pillars 1), which results in a shorter episode (which I do on purpose, just getting back into the swing of things post-vacation). We learn about the very first Hollowborn (and what it is) as well as the inciting events that founded the nation of Readceras.

Hey, I'm on vacation this week, so no new full episode...BUT I didn't wanna leave y'all hanging so here's a quick little episode about one giant piece of news, followed by two minutes of me making mistakes in a few podcast episodes over the many months of this show's existence. I hope (some of) you will enjoy it.

This week's episode is regarding a Wael-affiliated faction (Wael being the god of dreams/mysteries/secrets/revelations) "The Hand Occult", whose primary focus is the control of flow of esoteric knowledge.

This week's episode I dive into the in-game "History of Eora" anthology, which as been requested for quite a while. I don't do all 16 entries of these books in this episode, I just pick the ones I think could be related to Avowed / Living Lands in some way. It gets pretty interesting, and we draw some connections which might be seen in the game of Avowed.
I *will* be doing future episodes on the other 12, but likely in just 4-book segments, done topically.

In this week's episode I revisit the lore of the Aedyr Empire, its people, its history, and their language. This is largely a summation of lore that I did a few years ago (check out Ep. 4-6, and some afterwarsd) about this. However, with the involvement of Aedyr mentioned in the Avowed trailers of recent I decided it was time to give a decent overview in an updated way. So, here's to the Aedyr Empire! Happy Feast of Feasts!

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their upcoming action RPG: Avowed.
This week's episode focuses on Inquisitor Lödwyn, and the paladin order she helps lead, the Steel Garotte. Most of the lore will be about the Paladin order, but we tie it back to the Inquisitor. This lore is also associated to the goddess of Law, Woedica; and the empire of Aedyr. All of which is discussed (a bit) and speculated upon for Avowed. For instance...why did Obsidian choose The Steel Garrote over all the other potential factions? Did they need a Woedican faction? And Aedyran-origin faction? Who knows...

DISCLAIMER: [read full disclaimer] This episode contains major spoilers for Pillars of Eternity I & II. The episode is split into two parts, the first are my theories which are SPOILER-FREE, but the second part (which are community-submitted theories) I do not hold back any spoiler-related ideas. There is a musical interlude segmenting these two parts, so you'll be able to know when to jump out if you need to.

This week's episode is all about speculation! Whether it's game mechanics, narratives mysteries, character progression, or potential story twists - we got it all. And by "we" I mean myself, and those who submitted theories on Reddit!

This week's ONE HUNDREDTH episode features a decently in-depth overview of the Avowed Deep Dive, as seen on Xbox's Official Youtube Channel. There's *a lot* to cover here, so I won't even list it all. Suffice it to say, it's all very interesting. There's a good mix of lore and gameplay related discussion today :)
As well, just a BIG thank you to all who've been on this journey with me with this podcast (whether you've been here since the beginning, or you jumped on recently). It's been a wonderful 100 episodes, and I can't wait to aim for 100 more (we will see how much lore we can parse from Avowed, I suppose). So thanks to you, the listeners; and thanks to Obsidian for their support and just creating an awesome world for us to camp in each week :)

This week's episode we cover A LOT! (1) an overview of the all the news related to Avowed (up to the point of recording, that is); and (2) we dive into the Story Trailer for Avowed to discuss all the topics of LORE we see within.
If you're at all interested in the world Avowed takes place in, this episode is a nice one to start in on. We discuss the empire your player character comes from, who the lady with fire-eyes is, and a bit about what might have gone on in the Living Lands (Avowed's setting) a long time ago.

This week's episode follows the last leg of famed Vailian explorer, Fulvano, in the first Pillars of Eternity game. Will we see Fulvano in Avowed? Almost assuredly not. However, might Fulvano have already visited the Living Lands and left stuff for us to find? Almost assuredly maybe. -

This week's episode looks at a few off-screen adventures you send player companions on as part of your title of "Watcher of Caed Nua". In these adventures we see references to lore/stories otherwise not mentioned elsewhere in the game(s). Using these context clues and other pieces of lore, we examine what's going on and what it could mean for other narratives in Eora.

This week's episode focuses on the story of several NPCs in the first Pillars of Eternity game, and narrows in on the connective tissue between their stories, backstories, relationships and side quests.
Random side note, I had recorded some thoughts on the Tango & Arkane closures but removed them just because I don't think it was necessary for me to do so. But I do think it's sad, and wonder what it means for the industry. If you'd like to strike up a conversation send me an email. Also, I'm sure we will talk about it on Avowedcast; perhaps I'll say something next week after thinking. Anyways, that was nothing that needed to be said, but there it is...

This week's episode focuses on the "Seeker, Slayer Survivor" DLC for Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire. The focus is going to be on the 'god' of Toamowhai, but it will also include lore on the surrounding island (Kazuwari) and the Temple/Crucible you spend a lot of time at (Temple of Toamowhai), as well as the story of what's going on there.
The first portion of today's episode are spoiler-free, but be warned the second portion contain MAJOR SPOILERS for the DLC of this game, so keep that in mind moving forward.
