About this listen

Ruby Achera just wanted a nice, quiet drink at her family's casino in Magic City.

The Mist Casino sits just above a kemana with an interior that would make a ghost feel right at home. Of course it does. After all, Magic City has to compete with nearby Vegas. A different kind of magic.

Ruby is just back from University for the summer, catching up with an old friend, when everything changes with a bang!

A series of small blasts are exploding all around her. Chips are flying through the air. Someone wanted to announce their arrival in town. But who?

Ruby is about to get drawn into a battle for control of Magic City. They just made the fight personal. Is the Ebon Dragon Casino next?

Will Ruby's secrets get in her way?

What waits at the end could change her life forever, if she survives the journey.

Ruby has returned home to Magic City after completing her degree. She is a Mist Elf who has been disguised as a human for most of her life - her parents haven't told her why.

She has to complete a task on Oriceran and in doing so, she now has a partner - Idryll the snarky shapeshifting cat woman.

Casinos are being attacked in Magic City so Ruby and Idryll set out to find out who and why.

Plenty of action and snark.

Good narration too.

Great start
