S07E01: The Trouble I've seen

In our 32nd episode of News from the Breach - A Dragon Prince Podcast, we discuss chapters 1&2 of Book Dark: “Death Alive” & “True Heart”.
It’s season 7! Things are getting Darker 😈
We talk about tropes, fan theories, and lots of our own thoughts and
feelings about these two episodes.
Questions that come out of this episode: Is Claudia going to get a redemption arc? Is ragey Ez here to stay?
Tell us what you think! We are planning to record again tomorrow (2025-10-04) around 20:00 Central European Time so if you get your comments in before then we might even be able to read them out!
Corrections / Additions
- Ceilidh checked and Claudia doesnt have the Red Necklace in the season 6 intro (confirms what she thought in the podcast episode).
- Dipping a hot sword in water is called quenching (see Sword making)
- Galvanization is a different process and involves hot dipping the sword into zinc to make the metal less corrosive. Maybe Ethari was doing that 😅
