A Mighty Empire is threatened a coalition of evil forces from the badlands of the North. An epic tale of sword and sorcery.  This is a story about a mighty Empire. A mighty Empire, ruled by a noble king. For many years, the people of the Empire had lived in peace and prosperity. But, far North, in the barren and untamed wastelands beyond the civilised world, a darkness was growing. A fearsome and terrible warlord by the name of Brutus the Merciless had united clans and armies of barbarians, mutants, and savages. It was said that he planned to march this gigantic force South, with the ultimate aim of taking the throne for himself, and enslaving the people of the Empire. Whispers of fear and uncertainty began to spread throughout the towns and villages of the South. The King pleaded for calm, and assured his people that they were not at risk. This Empire had stood for a great many thousands of years. They'd seen off countless similar attacks in that time, and this one would be no different – if it indeed came at all. As a precaution, scouts were regularly sent North to investigate and report back on what was going on up there. But none ever returned. That was, until one day, on the outskirts of the Northernmost town of Cludgiemyre. This was a rustic town, with a salt-of-the-Earth population, hardy, and world-weary. Though the people here often complained that they were the “forgotten town of the Empire”, being way up here in the North, Cludgiemyre was of great strategic importance. They called it the Gateway to the North, because it was wedged in the valley between the mighty peaks of the Stauner Mountains. If an attack was to come from the Badlands, the invaders would most likely head straight through Cludgiemyre on their way into the Imperial Heartlands. The townsfolk were already on edge, that fateful day, when a young guard on the town wall spotted a lone figure stumbling down from the pass. It was one of the King’s scouts, covered from head to toe in dried blood, having spent time as a guest in one of Brutus the Merciless’ torture camps. He had managed to escape and travel homeward, to give warning to the people of the Empire, and confirm their worst fears. Brutus had forged an unholy alliance with the infamous Necromancer Bryar, Lord of the walking corpses. Also forging part of this alliance was the cold and cruel Beastmaster Alicia, with her hordes of mutant barbarians, trolls, and other savage creatures. They were joined too by the forces of General McGeever. A ruthless and uncompromising champion who led a contingent of battle hardened mercenaries. The escaped guard told the folks of the Empire that this dark coalition – an army of unprecedented size and strength - would soon begin their descent on the Empire’s capital city. As scared as they were though, the folks of Cludgiemyre weren’t the types to run from danger. A raven was sent to the King himself to tell him of this grave news, and the townsfolk agreed that once reinforcements arrived, they’d be on the front line with them. But it wasn’t the King’s soldiers who first appeared through the guard’s looking glass on the Southern horizon. It was two men on horseback. They were Bard Leon the Powerful, and his faithful scribe Dougal. Bard Leon had come to chronicle the war that would go down in history as the one that changed these lands forever.

A New Beginning. Literally.  We decided to make a new prequel for A Scottish Podcast. Here's why.  Former radio DJ Lee Power tells a local student radio station why he turned his back on the industry to launch a paranormal investigation podcast.

A small group of humans wake up on board an alien space craft. They soon discover that the ship's crew and other passengers are all dead. But they're not the only beings who are still alive. Something else is on board with them. Something deadly.

Lee releases episode 1 of his podcast, with a little help from Doug and Jane. He's feeling good about things, but that might not last.  IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - NO MORE ASP EPISODES WILL APPEAR ON THIS FEED Hi, it’s Matthew here. I’m the writer and producer of A Scottish Podcast, and I’ve got a very short but very important announcement to make about the show. So the podcast feed you’re currently listening on – and hopefully subscribed to – is called “Aftermath and Other Audio Drama Stories”. And there’ll be no more Scottish Podcast episodes appearing in this feed. We’ll be continuing to put out short stories and one off audio dramas here, as and when we make them, so please stay subscribed. But if you want any more episodes of A Scottish Podcast – and hopefully you’re enjoying the story – then you just need to pop over to ScottishPodcast.com and subscribe to the show’s brand new feed. That feed will be exclusively for Scottish Podcast episodes, and they won’t be available anywhere else. Not even here. This will be the one and only time I mention this wee change, so if you want to find out what dark secrets lie under the streets of Edinburgh, make sure you subscribe to the new feed. So, just to summarise, there’ll be no more episodes of A Scottish Podcast on this feed, and if you want to continue listening to the story, head to ScottishPodcast.com where you’ll find links to the show on iTunes, Stitcher, etc. And just incase you can’t remember the website ScottishPodcast.com, I’ll put a link in the shownotes of this very episode too. Thanks for listening.

What You Can't See

Nine years ago the Wells-Dyson satellite picked up images of what appears to be some sort of wreckage on the floor of Titan's biggest hydrocarbon ocean - Kraken Mare.  The discovery prompted eccentric billionaire Jennifer Barrie to fast-track an expedition to the mysterious moon of Saturn.  The three British astronauts who have just arrived in Titan's orbit have only one job - find out what's lying under Kraken Mare.  And potentially answer one of humanity's biggest questions. Are we alone in the universe?
