Logan and Aurora flying on Lightning off their island to the mainland for a weekend.

The new female Imperial Rangers - King Darian IV's former personal guard.

A squirrely messenger character called Nerril from the part of the world Aurora is from - sent to bring Aurora back to the land of her birth. He bungles the job and gets put to sleep by a group of half elves on patrol.

Aurora playing her lute outside under the light of the moon and an aurora, contemplating new information about her past.

Logan is sick in bed, and Aurora is surprised one night by a soldier in a dark uniform who completes what Nerril is unable to do.

More next week!

Once Upon a Dream, the second Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, is now out in digital form!

It is out on most major streaming services such as Bandcamp, Spotify, and YouTube Music. (If you have no preference, I recommend Bandcamp since there is a bonus track there and you will eventually be able to find tapes, CDs, and special editions of the album there as well.)

-Check out the pixelart music videos that are out so far from the album:
