The quality of the narrator does seem to be improving. I enjoy how wizards is doing the story. I wonder how many episodes more will get. Thank you wizards for doing it this way
I do think it's interesting how they didn't edit out the minor bloopers. And now I'm wondering if one could apply just to read the next set of story chapters.
It's true that the Fae don't, and cannot, speak falsehoods. That's not to say they cannot omit details and thus mislead. Edit to expand upon my point: It's also technically not a "lie by omission" in their minds, but a case of "you didn't ask." They just leave out what THEY consider unimportant. Just like if you went to the store wearing a green shirt, you'd consider the green shirt unimportant. It's not a lie to leave that out when mentioning your shopping trip. "Oh? You thought it was important that I had been involved in the spread of this enchantment? I disagree, but now that I'm asked directly, I freely admit my involvement. Do you care that I was wearing my favorite circlet at the time, or that it was slightly overcast, or that the decision was made in a grove of oak trees? No? It's so random what details you choose to give significance to..."
This one was the best yet! Drama, combat, betrayal, everything a good story needs. I'm very excited for this to go on, but also very sad, since there is only one episode left. I would love to hear the side stories as well, I think vocalisation is one of the best ideas the magic story team came up with to date. Other than bringing story back to the magic website, that is. Thank you so much.
I’d much prefer they spend the side stories resources to give a few more main stories. Even if it’s not 1 to 1. I’d settle for 2 or 3 more main stories, but even 1 more I think would help a lot. They are good now, but with just a bit more room I think could be great.
I’m loving these stories! I really hope we see them continue. Hopefully next set gives us a few more chapters though. Would be awesome to get a few more.
🎉, I think the previous lack of pauses between chapters was the editors issue, in my opinion there was an abrupt enough change in the qualities of her voice that I think the readings were in fact done at separate times
I really like this series of reading the story, but this episode felt unfinished. There were points where the narrator restarted a take but it wasn’t edited out. It is definitely jarring going from the first 3 to this, as I didn’t notice it much (if at all) in them. I truly hope you continue this in future set releases, with the bugs ironed out.
Yes, thank you Wizards for going the (half) mile to deliver these stories in audio but But BUUTTT quality control, PLEASE. (I could also fairly say the same for every other tangible (e.g. card-based) product that you’d put before us). Small pick - reader is generally bland in pitch & tone Medium/big pick - 8:36 this is already 2nd vid I noted that the same line was repeated immediately. Almost certainly some edit error than dramatic effect
Love the audiobooks for the lore. But please spend a little more time editing. This is two entries in a row with lines getting repeated in the final product
Please re-edit this. There are a couple places where it is clear the reader is repeating the same part of the story, like needed to pause and repeat the last sentence. This should have been noticed in the initial editing.
3 line redos in one video feels excessive, even considering engagement farming. These are simple cuts to make. Love the idea, but the execution could be improved (separate character readers, image pairing, etc). Still, having official VOs of the lore let's me actually absorb it while I work instead of putting off reading it until I completely forget and just watch a TH-camr summarize it
These audio lore videos are a great idea. Don't leave the lore side behind please, is the main reason why people love MTG besides gameplay.

WoE is a five-part story from AFAIK. The finale is Monday.
Weird to me since it seems like the Kenrith stuff has a LONG way to go.
Image list:

5:17 TBA (Familiar Puppet Show)-Julie Dillon
10:16 Queen of Ice- Eric Deschamps

23:06 TBA (Snow Queen's Kiss) -Miranda Meeks
28:29 Wicked Slumber -Anato Finnstark
29:25 Witch's Vengeance-Titus Lunter
I love this story! Kellan and Ruby are such good characters, and I like how Hylda was moved to kindness by Ruby
Yessss we adore these reading videos so much!! Accessibility is always a good choice. 😤 And Harless’s reading has improved so much!

These reading videos are great, and the story so far is amazing. I just wish there was more of it.
I want Hylda’s card now. I feel like she’d be an awesome addition to my snow deck. That’s if it uses snow mana for it’s effect(s).
Doubtful. They wouldn't put a one-off snow card in a standard-legal set that doesn't have snow as a broader mechanic.

A thousand thanks to K. A. Rivera! This has been a really nice visit through the plane in part to the writer’s work.

Getting better with every installment. Voices, pauses, dramatic effect
Love that we are getting these on audio files. I'm a bit disappointed there are no secondary stories tho

Counted another 3 more repeats, thereafter. To b fair, some of those COULD b for dramatic effects. But I’m quite sure not all of em
So Talyon was definitely talking about Rakdos, right?
Thanks again for doing this. Really enjoying the reading. Please keep it up!
This is awesome. The story is foundational to the overall experience!!
I like the way this story shows that girls can do anything boys can do . Sometimes like this much better.
kellan vs rowan incoming
Nope, our boy Rankle's boutta come in clutch once again. 😤😤😤
How dare he hurt our cinnamon rolls 😢
Thanks for doing this videos! This stories are my main reason to like mtg so much
Loving the art with the story
Such a great story, thank you
I don't remember this part of Frozen lol
Here's an idea. Have voice actors read flavor texts, and make them available like emotes on arena.
They did something like this briefly got Zendikar Rising but I don’t think people bought em because they didn’t do it again.
thankes for this great store
11:34 huh, who knew Kellan was questioning! I guess fae are often nonbinary, after all
Love the audiobooks for the lore. But please spend a little more time editing. This is two entries in a row with lines getting repeated in the final product
I honestly love these❤
Sounds like something the Fae Did.
Please, please, im a big fan of Magic but im french and it s difficult for me to understand your stories videos. Can you translate the next stories ?
love all the editing mistakes!
