265 - Story Circle: War's Wage

The Vorthos Cast

This week we're beginning our Story Circle, a series of episodes aimed at reading and discussing pre-Origins Magic fiction, including some pieces of what may be considered lost lore. For our first episode, we read and discuss War's Wage, a piece of web fiction released in the lead-up to Saviors of Kamigawa in 2005, written by famous early Magic author Jeff Grubb. This episode includes a full reading of the short story, from 5:45 to 25:12. You can also read the full story archived on the Wayback Machine, or on the MTGLore website at https://mtglore.com/web-fiction/wars-wage/. This story was once made available on the Wizards Magic website, but has since been lost.
