    RQ Network Feed Drop – The Penumbra Podcast “Second Citadel” Knight of the Crown Lord of the Swamp (Part 1)

    18/06/2026 | 28 mins.
    This month we are featuring a feed drop from The Penumbra Podcast one of the brilliant shows on the RQ Network.

    This episode is called “Knight of the Crown Lord of the Swamp Part 1 “and is from the 2nd season of the Second Citadel, a fantasy epic where friendships and romance are forged across enemy lines, which follows the fierce Sir Carolinem the first female Knight of the Crown, leading an eclectic team of warriors against mind-manipulating monsters.

    In this episode

    The Festival of the Three is the most important day of the year in the Second Citadel – or the most important three days, as the case may be. Battles and music and drink run free in Citadel’s square, and nearly every knight is in attendance… which leaves very few to guard from the monsters’ constant threat.
    Luckily, Sir Damien is on guard tonight, standing outside the Queen’s chambers with his trusty bow in hand. But Sir Damien is injured, and when a monstrous threat crawls in, he may find that it’s a very different sort of challenge from what he’s used to.

    Introduction and outro by Karim Kronfli.
