    <description>Breathe deep and enter the Miasma. You have found the words of the Dread Gods, whether by choice or fortunate accident. Within these episodes you will discover the teachings of the Great Hunt. Your guide, the Viper Prophet, is often joined by those bold souls willing to lend wisdom from their vast experience in the matters of the Hunt. I bade you listen and learn, though knowledge of the Dread Gods comes at a terrible price.

        <![CDATA[<p>Water can take many forms.  It can adapt to any situation.  But the strength of water comes when it is united in force.  The Trial of Water tests the Acolytes ability to fight in a confined space against a superior number of foes.  One must coordinate with their partner to move as one. To pass this Trial, one must be fleet as the surging stream, with the force of a magnificent tsunami, with all the strength of rushing whitewater, as focused as a current driven by the moon.

        <![CDATA[<p>There are many ways to serve the Dread Gods.  Those who wade into battle with strength and skill are the most noticed on the field.  They are able to win glory as they are likewise a spectacle.  But there are other ways to serve.  The Dread Gods crave sacrifice, and they care not how it is achieved.  This is well known by those who use stealth and cunning to achieve victory.  They are masters at both creating and exploiting opportunities.  A blade in the dark is just as effective as any other method of slaying one’s foes.  The skill set required for this Merit is quite different then the others, and thus must involve its own rigorous study.  Apostle Turkeyfeathers knows well the techniques of the Sneak, and he joins the Viper Prophet to share his wisdom on this hidden virtue.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>The path to becoming a Primal is a grueling one.  It requires pain and sacrifice, endurance and perseverance, and a singleminded desire to earn the favor of the Dread Gods.  This honored position is won through the acquisition of Merits, mastery of the Trials, and diligence within the Sacred Orders.  They are few in number as the task of becoming Primal is one that involves skill and focus beyond the ken of your average fighter.  In this teaching, Primal FLNT shares with us the lessons learned along the way.  Let us hear the Legend of the Maine Coon</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>As Xeric commands, we focus on our quest for glory and victory.  The Observation of Desperate Frost is an invitation to meditate on our previous season, where we have succeeded and where we have fallen short in our goals.  To achieve our aims, we must first understand who we are and what we are capable of.  This Omen invites us to look back upon our place in the fighting community. What have been some of your greatest moments? What about the less than great? How have me measured up to our expectations in the past, and how have our choices shaped who we are?</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>There are many ways of achieving a position of Khojas within the Hunt.  Some are entirely accomplishment based, others are by a vote of confidence from the local cult.  The Huntsmaster alone can claim that the Lord of the Hunt personally charged them with their sacred calling.  There are few Huntsmasters, but all can be called equally worthy.  They differ from other Khojas in several ways.  They are tasked to be the record keepers for their realm and events they attend, assisting the Chief Scribe in this summons.  They are the first among equals when it comes to the local Khojas, reporting directly to the Lord of the Hunt.  Finally, they are asked to use their creative talents to keep their cultists engaged and challenged.  Apostle Turkeyfeathers joins the Viper Prophet to share his wisdom about this singular Khojas position.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>While the Dread Gods relish a close quarters kill, they may also place their blessings on those who slay from afar.  Such skill is rare indeed, as it requires patience and cunning, focus and discipline.  Many are those who have picked up the bow, few have truly mastered it.  But the bow is not the only weapon used by a sniper.  Javelins, lethal from mid range, are also under the purview of the sniper.  Rocks too, for those who crave that close quarters combat and wish to catch their enemies by surprise.  Regardless of the tool, a skilled sniper can earn the attention of the Gods when their expertise yields bloody fruits.

        <![CDATA[<p>Before there can be fire, there must be a spark.  Within the Hunt, that spark is known as Harbinger.  These are those faithful souls dedicated to spreading the Word of the Dread Gods to those whose blades are hungry for more.  Appointed by the Lord of the Hunt or the Chief Scribe, these individuals are tasked with finding warriors with blood on their minds and bringing them into the embrace of the Hunt.  Through them, the Hunt has spread far and wide, and by their efforts more and more Hunters are added to the followers of the Dread Gods.  Disciple RedCrow, Harbinger of Frostwall, joins the Viper Prophet to share his wisdom on this crucial Khojas position.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>The Hunt is full of cultists who revere those dynamic and brutal aspects of the Dread Gods, but there is wisdom to be found in the presence of the most subtle of them.  For those who prefer the cloak of darkness and who prefer to slay unseen, Silence is ever present.  Silence provides a unique environment for the faithful, one that is outside the confinements of location.  The omnipresence of Silence grants these cunning cultists a wide array of options to send souls screaming to their god.  Within Silence we find comfort and terror, security and the illusion thereof.

        <![CDATA[<p>Omens of Revelation are times of internal reflection, looking forward and setting goals for ourselves in a directed way.  This particular Omen occurs when the days are darkest and the opportunity is readily available for reflection.  These Revelations are meant to be a personal journey, a sincere asking of ourselves our true intentions.  They can also be moments to share with our fellow Hunt members, seeking advice and providing encouragement for one another.  The Revelation of Clear Mind allows us the chance to ask ourselves questions concerning the objectives of our coming season.  Where do we want to focus our training?  How will we strive to better ourselves, our communities, and the Hunt?  Which events might we make a priority?  The Viper Prophet gives us insight into this Omen while asking us to honestly examine what we wish to achieve and how we plan to achieve it.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>When on the field of battle, few things can stop us and make us hesitate like the attention of an archer.  They are able to reach out and strike us at range the moment we have a lapse in focus, punishing us for our negligence.  The Trial of Air challenges us to confront this fear without faltering, purging ourselves of all doubt and delay as we plunge headlong into this confrontation.  The Hunter is faced with not just one, but four archers.  They must keep focus on all of their opponents without letting themselves become overwhelmed by the odds.  In this way, they face down one of the most daunting challenges of battle and learn to act when others might waver.  Apostle Kaji joins us to reflect upon his own attempts at this Trial and to share the wisdom he has gained from watching others attempt it over the years.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>It is easy to fall into the trap of losing our field awareness.  The opponent in front of us often makes heavy demands on our attention.  But to focus too much on what's obvious can make us blind to the obscure, for waiting on the wings are those adherents of the Vine.  Masters of stealth and subterfuge, even a lone Candle can bring the savage enlightenment of their skills on those who are unwary.  Theirs is the art in selection of key targets that, once felled, can break the opposing team.  They are the experts of folding a flank and devastating a line from behind.  Apostle Kaji, who is a Sage in this Order, joins us to share his wisdom concerning the Order of the Vine.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>When people think of the most lethal fighter on a team, the assumption is often that it is the largest or strongest lineman or the most fleet flanker.  More often than not, this is not the case.  More often than not, the fighter with the highest body count is the archer.  Archers are able to extend the threat zone of their team, striking at key targets.  Those who carry javelins are able to engage their opponents at mid-range before closing and finishing them off.  Finally, the much underrated rock is useful for crushing unwary skulls at close range.  Apostle Turkeyfeathers shares his wisdom and experience in the precise art of the Order of the Ash.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>While all of the Dread Gods have the urge to be offered worthy and violent sacrifice, Tal Kheer embodies the primeval avarice known only to predatory cunning. With no pretense or hesitation, this being of wild fury launches the attack. There is no warning, no time to react. When Tal Kheer seeks to claim what is theirs it does so with brutal force. And, in the mind of this mad god, everything belongs to Tal Kheer. A being of pure and unbridled greed, those who follow Tal Kheer are known for the pitiless acquisition both in war and enterprise.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>Earth is often seen as the most trustworthy of the elements.  It is the sure foundation upon which everything depends for stability.  But earth can be deceptive, for when its fury breaks loose, all sense of security is lost.  As we enter this Season of Earth, we would do well to remember this powerful contradiction.  The same element we rely on to support us can be unleashed as sheer chaos, throwing order to the sky and raining down ash as the very ground beneath our feet seeks to end us.  Apostle Turkeyfeathers joins the Yaga Malark to discuss the themes of the Season and the danger posed by this element in the Trial of Earth</p>
