This is an actual play series of Trophy Gold that we recorded with Chimaeracast. In addition to being very entertaining, this series was put together to demonstrate Trophy Gold gameplay. 

For this series, we are playing through the Hester's Mill incursion. In this episode, Ezio, Sareh, and Thessel come upon the blighted land of Toren’s Bend in hopes of discovering treasure left over from the overthrowing of Lord Gahldren by the farmers and townsfolk of Hester’s Mill, but first they have to find the road leading to the village, and that’s a lot harder than it sounds...

CONTENT WARNING: Pregnancy, birth imagery, body horror, harm to animals, ritual magic
