This was such a beautiful thing to experience. To achieve such high quality storytelling, beauty, love and emotion on a livestream is unreal, and seeing just how much it meant to the cast was so moving. It felt like a privilege to be able to see it in real time. Congratulations to everyone involved.

I am honestly without words now that The Fourth Age ( @calltoadventure.bsky.social ) is over. To craft stories with love from front to back with every person within a story is so special. To do it with profoundly gifted storytellers is a dream. Hannon le, gwadoras nin.

This year saw the return of Paradise Lost, both in the dramatic finale of its first season, and the explosive premiere of its second. Using Free League's The Electric State, this journey through dystopia tackled the stranglehold of corporations over US politics and the insidious rise of Al. (1/2)

Five individuals stood together against a dark misty horizon:

- Drake Lee: A tall individual with lightly tanned skin, his handsome features framed with long black hair tied messily up, a cocky smile over his scarred face. A chain necklace sits over a plain white t-shirt, over which he wears a long black duster. Thick muscular arms are crossed over his chest, one of which is covered in intricate tattoos, and from his waist hangs a katana.
- Amelia Oliver: A short individual with lightly tanned skin, her round black-rimmed glasses framing equally round features. Her black hair is done up in two spherical buns, the right of which is pierced with pencils. She wears a green checkered shirt, over which a torn green jacket reveals muscular, scarred arms. A brown satchel full of books is slung over her left shoulder.
- Dr Jacob Banks: A tall individual with light brown skin, his brown hair framing handsome features, as do his clear glasses, and a clean moustache sits above a grinning mouth. He wears a white and blue crop-top, with the number “ten” on it. A fanny pack sits strapped across this, red and with a first aid symbol on its surface. A blue checkered shirt is tied around his waist, on which one of his hands rests.
- Darla Oakes. A short individual with lightly tanned skin, her suspicious eyes framed by dark mark-up. Rectangular sunglasses are perched atop a mess of wavy dark hair that tumbles over her shoulders. She wears a sleeveless black turtleneck, over which she wears a sleeveless hooded brown jacket, revealing two arms: one bare, the other covered in a tattoo that snakes around into a metallic robotic limb.
- Artie King. A tall figure with handsome brown features framed by large glasses and curly dark brown hair. He wears a dark leather jacket over a green and yellow striped shirt. He smiles warmly.

In front of them are the words "Paradise Lost: An Original The Electric State Adventure" and "Season Two, Tuesday 19th August, 12pm Pacific Time."

This is a screenshot of two pages from my tabletop game Ivresang, the Ashen Kingdoms, an Ironsworn based and inspired gothic game.

This is a digital illustration. On a white background, the waist-up of a blue haired Hyur from the game Final Fantasy 14. She sports a typical bard-armor, with a long rimmed hat. Her outfit has brass metallic accents, and is white, grey, and dark blue leaning towards black. She has a hand on her hip, and her other hand is open, suggesting that she may be in the midst of talking (or knowing her, criticizing someone or something).

This is a digital illustration. Two characters from the live TTRPG play, Paradise Lost, the sequel to Paradise Lost, Amelia and Darla.

This is a digital illustration. My pirate character, Khadim, stares directly to the viewer with a cocky smile. They have long flowing locs greying at the temples, a dark beared beard, dark skin, a few scars, tattoos, and several gold accessories. The painting is jewel toned.

- Theodas. A muscular Elf with strong dark features, framed by a thick, greying beard, wearing a grey cloak over a dull golden chestpiece. He sits by a campfire.
- Iairen. A human with handsome, dark features, his face framed with long brown hair with a soft kink to it, wearing a green robe with gold trim, with a bow slung over his shoulders. He animatedly tells a story.
- Mistiel. An Elf with beautiful dark features and long white braids, wearing a hooded auburn cloak over dark leather armour. She looks on.
