A Paladin's Bargain - Episode Zero: Welcome to the Show

This episode zero is much like a gaming “session zero.” The person running the game (Daniel) introduces the show and talks about what’s to come. It doesn't matter if you are familiar with the game or not, please take a few minutes to listen, as it covers some basic information about the world we've created.
Content note: No harsh language, no violence, no innuendo, no alcohol consumption.
