This week we're answering a question that has certainly been on the minds of Vorthosi since Tarkir: Dragonstorm hit the shelves: What even is a dragon? How has Magic created their own concept of dragonkind? We talk the influences behind Magic's dragons, their different morphologies, and a little bit of Dragon Lore.

337 - Author Interview: Cassandra Khaw
We're joined this week by the incredible Cassandra Khaw! Cass has written for Magic before Tarkir: Dragonstorm, but this is their first time writing the main set story, to huge success! We talk about returning to writing Magic story after a long break, how they captured fan-favorite characters so perfectly, and how fun it is to make characters suffer.
You can read a sneak peak at The Library at Hellebore, Cassandra Khaw's upcoming novel, here: https://torpublishinggroup.com/sneak-peek-for-the-library-at-hellebore/

336 - The Clans of Tarkir: Dragonstorm
With the stories finished, we can now delve deep into the world of Tarkir as it is now, a world ruled by five clans once more, but very different from both the world before the dragonlords and the world that never was. Each clan's identity has evoled tremendously, so we go deep into the Planeswalker's Guides to give you an overview of who they are, how they work, and what roles they play in the new world of Tarkir.

335 - The Story of Tarkir: Dragonstorm pt. 4
It's our final episode covering the stories of Tarkir Dragonstorm, and this time we're wrapping up the side stories! We're talking Sultai, we're talking Temur, and believe it or not we're talking Mardu, too! How do these side stories help tell the overall story of a Tarkir finding its past? Well, with the help of three excellent authors they do it very well!
