Episode Introduction

Hello adventurers, and welcome to the World of Azuria podcast. In this episode, we dive into the world of Azuria with Esmeralda's tarot reading from chapter four of Aurora, the prequel novella for the Age of Azuria high fantasy series.

My name is Beth Ball, and I’m the author of the Age of Azuria high fantasy series, which we’ll be exploring in this podcast. In some episodes, we’ll explore the high fantasy world of Azuria as I read chapters from the novels and stories. In others, we’ll uncover the lore behind Azuria and answer your questions about the world, characters, and more.

If you enjoy high fantasy worlds, immersive settings, nature-based magic, and vivid characters, then this podcast is for you.

Let’s start our adventure!
