Step into the quicksilver with book besties Kinsey and Karly as they close out the Brimstone Prep phase with a deep dive into the Quicksilver bonus chapters: The Gate: Part 1, The Gate: Part 2, The Maze, and The Fox. The Boots. The Dress. In this episode, the hosts revisit these pivotal Kingfisher POV scenes to uncover their hidden meanings and the lore connections that might shape Brimstone. From godswords, dragons, and true names to the twin goddesses, Zareth, and the lingering mysteries of the Fae and Alchemy world, they explore what these moments reveal about Kingfisher's past and the divine chaos yet to come! This episode marks the final stop in Brimstone Prep & Recovery, wrapping up everything listeners need to know before Brimstone releases on November 18th, 2025. Next up: Recovery mode, where the hosts share their first reactions, favorite moments, and early theories after reading the book.
