[PUBLIC EPISODE] The Wizard, the Witch and the Wild One: ep052 "No Loose Ends"
Added 2025-07-15 14:20:56 +0000 UTC
To make the new world, to free tomorrow from the clutches of not done, we must bury the old world, shove ourselves inside the bone white sand, and there meet ourselves and everyone we have known. A wizard in her tower, oh let down your hair. A wild one, his one foot out the door of the prison cell. And a witch astride the world, who simply cannot leave any door closed, any stone not flipped like a table in the temple. We are all the pallbearers of what was. Roll up your sleeves. It's time to clean up.

2025-08-29 18:32:10 +0000 UTCSteel? I called it. o.- That said, I'm in love with how Brennan basicly laid out her psychology: A scared child clawing insanely for stability. A.G.

2025-08-28 17:44:44 +0000 UTCHello! I’d just like to put out into the universe that I would love nothing more than a compilation of all of Brennan’s NPCs going, “huh??” See: Eorghan, Steel, Galt, Lohan Huh??? ❤️

2025-07-31 01:18:15 +0000 UTCI want to know too!! I imagine they are used to spend this "camps" together, so it must have been draining for the gang, "waiting outside"... And Brennan holding the story... I am in awe

2025-07-30 08:41:25 +0000 UTCAs an early birthday present to myself (mostly just long overdue), I have caught up on nineteen episodes of WWW in five days. I really needed this back in my life, and every time I think about it I'm always just in awe of what a beautiful, viscerally heartrending thing you've all made. Thank you, a thousand times over.

2025-07-25 15:00:26 +0000 UTCAbsolute fucking chills at the end! Wow. I love this podcast so much 😫 Question: How did the production of the parts where only one of the party is there work? Like do you record the whole thing for everyone separately and afterwards edit it together OR do you record in the order we get to hear?

2025-07-22 10:24:53 +0000 UTCAnother great episode, yet another cliffhanger. I got a little relief from the gap between episodes by listening to Luis Carazo DM “Tales Unrolled: Alma,” a totally different vibe but with a similar depth of character and really interesting world that pulled me in… but now I’m all caught up on those, too! Damn these incredibly well-timed cliffhangers!

2025-07-22 05:25:50 +0000 UTCI am caught up. I am undone. I am a rag in puddles on the floor. I don’t know how I go on without listening to more of this show. I am an addict for this show. Man, this shit is sooooo good. And Eursulon is *so* my brother!!!

Dr. Eggman
2025-07-21 21:06:15 +0000 UTCHe’s likely under the effects of Dominate Person, Geas is a bit more subtle and suggestive, and ends if the target is given a suicidal command. Him being completely unable to move more aligns with Dominate Person, since you’re essentially remotely taking over someone’s body, and if the spell’s upcasted it can last for up to 8 hours
Evan Gomez
2025-07-21 18:44:51 +0000 UTCQuick one before the eternal worm devours Connecticut: if Silver is under a geas and is unable to process external stimuli (and smart people just incorporate those geas into their actions), that does regrettably confirm that Silver has rocks in his head. Very sad day for the 'Silver might not be a dummy' crowd, hidden though they are from my eyes.

2025-07-19 19:30:29 +0000 UTCI can’t stop thinking about how the Fox ate a mouse. I think this might be important! It wasn’t a magical citadel animal, just a regular mouse. Witch spy paranoia ACTIVATED.

2025-07-19 19:28:52 +0000 UTCThe fact that this season started with the goal of rescuing Silver is so poetic in the worst way

Ammar Khalid
2025-07-19 12:54:12 +0000 UTCSPOILERS . . . Silver had so many death flags and some how after being extracted and making it through a literal war zone and then breaking up I was like damn I guess he’s safe just for this to happen 😭
Misty Lore
2025-07-19 11:39:40 +0000 UTCAt the end of this episode, my face was so shocked with me being completely speechless and on the verge of tears, causing my wife to ask me “who died?!!” And I had to say “someone in my favorite podcast 😭😭😭” like that’s a normal thing to say.

2025-07-18 17:44:28 +0000 UTCcan we get a great spirit of like, people being nice to each other? people standing up for one another? people actively being good rather than complete shitheads? that's probably what the World's Heart actually is, and the Citadel being plunged in it is allowing these other truths to take front & center. but yeah could def go for a little more anthropomorphic manifestations of the good parts of humanity lol. just as a treat

Deyla
2025-07-18 14:28:05 +0000 UTCa bit low-key, but taylor inserting that sting when Suvi says "Naram is not part of the MiB's war party" was dope, knowing he is now after Eursulon's encounter
The Spirit of Vicious Inspiration
2025-07-18 13:30:54 +0000 UTCFor all of our adventures at the fire side. In this episode we learn that spirits don’t just encompass domains or concepts but entire truths. Are there any truths of life or even after 👀 that you hope our heros will run into? Update: after a little deliberation. I would love to see something like selflessness and selfishness be portrayed especially in this interesting time of conflict in Umora.

2025-07-18 06:37:43 +0000 UTCBRENNAN! THIS QUOTE ROCKED MY WORLD: "The geometry of wizardry is a love letter to the mathematics of Creation; to the music of the Spirit and the Real and where they dance together. This is art AND science; it is magic True. This is what you love." THIS WILL BE EMBROIDERED ON A PILLOW ONE DAY, MARK MY WORDS! But no really, if you replaced wizardry with story telling and language (because what is wizardry in this story if not that), that would be my philosophy in life and my understanding of the place humanity holds in relation to the physical and metaphysical parts of our world. Thanks for putting it into words, Brennan!

RottingLizard
2025-07-17 19:04:29 +0000 UTCSpoilers: Since Task was on their way to Suvi, I wonder if they got a view of Silver’s attack on Silence. It might be helpful for Suvi to see more clearly if he was under dominate person or gaes. (But also the angst of it all)
CaptLizianthus
2025-07-17 18:24:52 +0000 UTCoh I like this theory a LOT
Ellis
2025-07-17 17:54:40 +0000 UTCI'm pretty sure we don't know. All we know is the context in which they were written, when around when Suvi is setting out to save the kids.

Nathan
2025-07-17 15:28:44 +0000 UTCThe bars holding Gault were iron, but everything holding the kids was made out of steel. I wonder if there’s some storytelling in the materials
Queen Motoko
2025-07-17 14:00:42 +0000 UTCI feel like there js a reason that Suvi was kept away from Grandmother Wren after her Summer at the cottage. I know there were some issues with traveling doors during Suvi’s childhood, but surely steel and wren could have figured out how to get Ame and Suvi a playdate. It makes me wonder if Suvi’s memory was tampered with in childhood, and steel didn’t want her to see Wren because Wren may have figured it out.
Hannah
2025-07-17 12:04:26 +0000 UTCSteel has been extremely careful in avoiding being caught in a lie without explicit, unimpeachable cover. She's done a damn near perfect job of covering up the truth. The only source of exceptions prior to this episode is Eiogharan - one she could not destroy. She has otherwise created a perfectly consistent story for Suvi and, frankly, listeners as well. I was not the first to observe it, but those nat 1s from Steel about memory modification seem like some of the most important rolls of the campaign thus far. They are hints to Suvi. There has been no attempt to share with Suvi the fact that her memory has been erased. If this were a one-time thing, it would have been easy to share that information. The fact that she didn't share it, as others have observed, raised the question: how many times has she done this gambit? How many times has she done it *with Suvi specifically*? Because it also seems as if she intends to do it again, this time with, likely, Ame and Eursulon as the memory targets. Knowing that Ame cannot be brought to the cause of the Citadel, and being certain that Eursulon cannot, they no longer have a use for Steel except to derail the career of the Wizard Sky, future leader of the Citadel.

Rebecca Gorman
2025-07-17 08:05:44 +0000 UTCThe way they delivered “ugh prophecies” had such a Pratchet witch vibe it made me very happy
Liv Tealeaf
2025-07-17 07:24:18 +0000 UTCPeople have pointed out that the fox is acting oddly since the garrison. With Task's "I am on my way" in response to Suvi showing him where to find her, is there a spirit of Xanax that's infected the familiars?

Kiera Faye
2025-07-17 02:21:27 +0000 UTCSPOILER UNDER THE THING . . . Smells like a dominate or geas on Silver 🥲 I almost think he would have actually been spared if Suvi hadn't mentioned the modify memory spell but when she did Steel knew she had to get rid of Silver in a way that Suvi wouldn't regret his death

Park Gaines
2025-07-17 01:43:09 +0000 UTCI definitely he's a spirit of death primarily, since I'm pretty sure Brennan has said that at some point although I can totally see, regret or other things being part of his domain. Death fits really well with Lucio's Ferry as well because there's Charon and other famous death-related boatmen out there! Also, crossroads are often symbolic of the connection between our world and the afterlife, which is why in folklore people often meet devils or spirits there.

The Wizard Sable
2025-07-17 00:24:48 +0000 UTCBrennan Lee Mulligan, Aabria Iyengar, I felt so seen by this episode. Suvi coming to terms with her magic felt so incredible. To have her approach magic with understanding, and learning the mechanisms behind it, and to have that be okay and good and right was so powerful for me. Growing up autistic, I often felt that there was some sort of shared weave of magic that connected people, and that I could not see or access at all. But with analysis, with time, and with help, I started to figure out how it works. To reach out with an intuition born of systems and understanding, to take part in this shared connection. To hear Aabria say "My friends are magic, and so am I." And to finally have wizardry, a way of approaching magic in an logical systematic way of words and mechanics be treated as just as magical and wonderous as the path of witchcraft and the world of spirits was heartwarming and beautiful to hear. At the very end, it was so heartwarming and refreshing to hear when the spirit Vandal showed Suvi the first curse word, and how the first act of wizardry was a word that lessened the pain, and how wizardry has been a thing with humanity since ancient times. Thanks so much to the cast and crew of Worlds Beyond Number. Thank you all so much.

2025-07-16 21:13:58 +0000 UTCUM question for the next fireside, BRENNAN. WHY CAN'T YOU LET MY GIRL SUVI REVEL IN SOME ROMANCE MORE THAN 2 MINUTES?
Alyssa
2025-07-16 20:59:27 +0000 UTCMy friend and I always have a little powwow after each ep drops and through our convo a theory/question/conspiracy arose: What if Suvis parents were working with Ren to take down the Citadel? What if the reason the MIB was searching for Suvi is because her parents were going to aide him in taking down the empire and the necklace her mom left her is a key he needs? What if Steel found out, set up Suvis parents death and was involved in some way of placing the curse on Ren?? Am I reaching? Idk. But I cant help but think the reason Suvi was the key to binding him and releasing him is because she was given something he needs to rid the world of wizards. Okay I'm retreating back to my hole for another two weeks.

Witch of the Remembering Bog
2025-07-16 18:15:00 +0000 UTCThe Man in Black hating humans has always sat a little awkwardly for me because like… you need humans to make roads, buddy. It also opens up the conversation about the balance between spiritual and physical in the metaphysics of Umora. Like Steel is unfortunately correct. There was no spirit of the well until you dug the well. There was no spirit of the road until you made the road. I think the most parsimonious conclusion to this philosophical conflict is that the Spirit is infinite and unchanging, and the Mortal is finite and constantly in flux. In order to expand or complicate the Spiritual, you need innovation and creation in the Physical. In order to sustain the Physical, you need the Spiritual to dream it into existence.

If upcasted on 7th or 8th level , the duration is 1 year and if upcasted on 9th, it lasts until it is ended by remove curse, greater restoration, or wish spell) "I love you" followed immediately by "I will not survive another disappointment" has me having flashbacks to Fantasy High Sophomore Year “What is love without expectation, what is that?” vs. “What is expectation without love? That’s what you’ve given me.” -> I'M GOING TO DIE. Is it possible to play a wizard without mommy issues (affectionately)? Yaaaaay magic girl music for Suvi! Thanks, Taylor and Jared! It's 007 Ame hours! Omg, are we finally goind to learn about the The Taboo of Passage? MIB IS A SPIRIT OF THE HUMAN WORLD "Once a gift is given, it is yours" unless you're my wack sister, eh, Ame? ~~shadowy Ame and Eursulon~~ THE STRONGEST MAN IN SILBRY PRISON BREAK Suvi setting a chaos spirit free is AWESOME Enzo, please marry me, please WHAT

Felix
2025-07-16 16:26:00 +0000 UTCI just relistened to that whole section and I completely agree! Even the voice Brennan does for him sounded slightly different. Just not waking Ame up for something obviously important? And then they way he slyly hinted that Ame get Eursolon to come help? While yes he's the best person to help break someone out of jail, it's also convenient that they're now both within grasp of the Citidel. Even his little "I ate a mouse" seemed so specific, I might be over thinking it but something definitely felt off...

2025-07-16 16:24:59 +0000 UTCI'm re-listening to older episodes in order between new episodes, currently on episode 18: Between the Lines, which is the episode I'm listening to immediately after this newest one, it's the episode where Suvi gets The Tower of the Glove, where she describes red as her favorite color, and where Cyril, Enzo, and Vandal are introduced, my timing is incredible

lichen
2025-07-16 15:46:09 +0000 UTCI think that is part of why the Witches civil strife made things worse. Some of the other stations were very much more pro social (I think one was literally hearth and home, or something), and their absence made everyone on both sides go into a negative feedback loop. Which is why, I think, Wren tried to sort of pause the Man In Black: she couldn't reverse the damage or the plots, but she could stall them getting worse until the current generation had enough of an "all sides" perspective to try and lower the tempature a little.

Chris Taylor
2025-07-16 12:48:18 +0000 UTCSpoilers for the middle . . . . . . . . . . . Im thinking the man in black may be a spirit of regret or of pessimism. The biggest issue i run into is how lucio’s ferry ties into it? He may be a psychopomp so it could kind of fit but he may also be just another representation of something following you threatening to catch a cut the apple out of your eye. Would love other ideas
Chris Taylor
2025-07-16 12:00:38 +0000 UTCspoilers for the ending . . . . . . . . thinking about the advice steel gives suvi not to do any networking at the same time as thinking about her friend hana's father being kidnapped and her boyfriend's unseen character arc is devastating whatever silver was thinking (whether killing silence was to avenge the great bullfrog for suvi, or to incriminate suvi with the letter to him on his person) we'll never know because he was silo'd off from suvi, first by his job (though he may have been radicalised by steel's genocide of house raumza at the battle of twelve brookes), and second by steel's plans to banish him into obscurity. obsessed with the directions this story could take based on what the wizards make of silence's assassination. but my main point is that steel's advice for suvi to isolate herself means that she might never have known about golt's kidnapping if not for her True Friends. taking advantage of suvi's absence from the citadel, the absolute control that steel wants over suvi's life in the name of security is devastating (and great) storytelling

2025-07-16 08:23:56 +0000 UTCSame! Because I apparently misremembered it being ame back in the childrens adventure who wasn't supposed to be on the street/ her stepping on the road for the first time in episode 1. So it being suvi shifted my perspective a lot
Lillet_ Blue
2025-07-16 08:18:24 +0000 UTCThe only ongoing question in my mind is - when will Suvi finally take proficiency in Deception?
AL2VAR .
2025-07-16 07:48:10 +0000 UTCAlso: has anyone caught that Steel promised to tell Suvi about the geas and the mind altering and is NOT doing that? Not that it suprises anyone, Just a Point to make since Suvi hinted at it and so Steel did not just forget it because of exhaustion, she is withhelding so 'no more secrets' was a big ol' lie

2025-07-16 07:35:55 +0000 UTCHow interesting. I wouldn’t mind reading more about your theory🦊🔥
The Wizard Sparrow
2025-07-16 07:29:52 +0000 UTCSo so good. There is no way I am gonna sleep now. Suvi’s magic soars to new heights (L5) Eursolon recognizing the Man in Blacks true hatred and Ame finding Gultch. The ink demon delivering the letters, now understanding Suvi’s journey to 12 Brooks. My heart filled with sadness as Silver lay dead after his attack on Silent. I will have to go back and verify, but I’m pretty certain the message from Suvi prompted his intentions. There is no way I’m gonna sleep tonight. I have too many unanswered questions.
The Wizard Sparrow
2025-07-16 07:26:49 +0000 UTCI'm so interested what Suvis connection to the MiB is and why he was freed by her foot specifically. Also: It is so ENRAGINGLY fitting that Suvi can not Roll one great Insight in her mum. How many lies has Steel told her daughter?

Sil
2025-07-16 06:46:10 +0000 UTCY’all I’m about to write an entire thesis about how WBN showcases System Justification Theory so incredibly well Spoilers: Silver for sure had the Gaeus cast on him by Steel (or by the order of steel) because plot twist she’s for sure the big bad of the citadel (maybe this seems a bit much and hopefully stays as a theory bc it would break Suvi, but I’m almost certain the book 2 or 3 twist is going to be that Suvi finds out Steel killed Soft and Stone because she found out they were planning to turn fully against the citadel and revealed their treason and in the process got them killed, all the while convincing herself that the means would justify the ends and that it would be worth it for the power she could wield and change she could make once in power— while sinking further into the system the entire time and continuing to justify worse and worse actions) Also 12/10 would recommend Jost’s Theory of System Justification bc it’s hella relevant to both this show and the American political climate
Bennett Martin
2025-07-16 06:19:51 +0000 UTCSilver did what he had been told and trained all his life that good loyal Citadel wizard does. I'm unhappy that he wasn't convinced to change his worldview, but I understand why he continued to follow the dictates of the Citadel Justification Machine. Steel is the one who decided to punish Silver because he followed protocol, so that Steel could protect Suvi, and that makes Steel a villain. Along with all the other things that make Steel a villain of course.
Dominic Corbin
2025-07-16 05:44:19 +0000 UTCAt this point I believe Silver was likely geas'd by a wizard (Slate maybe?) at Steel's command (if she didn't do the mind control herself) to attack Silence in a false flag attack to be blamed on the witches. Silver was never meant to survive, and the dead cannot tell Suvi's secrets can they.

Dominic Corbin
2025-07-16 05:25:53 +0000 UTCThat was my thought as well. I also feel like Steel has a secondary objective, and have been trying to figure it out. Maybe spin it as Silver was controlled by the witches, and it was an attack?
Dominic Corbin
2025-07-16 05:16:57 +0000 UTCWarned them that the Epiphany would fire on any approaching spirits, allowing them to choose to deliver the letters once they reached the Citadel instead to avoid being vaporized by the magic cannons
TPK_light
2025-07-16 05:03:20 +0000 UTCVery interesting with The Man In Black. So he is a Psychopomp and a spirit of the world of men. Very Hermes like, and I wonder if it is the boundary stone and road/traveler at once thing that drives him. Curran is being treated so poorly as a show to motivate Eursulon to go back permanently, I think. The Man in Black may also literally be (or at least control) the wayshadow that makes normal communication between the real and the spirit so difficult. Unless it is the sort of short visits for spirits, and leaving in death for mortals. A ferryman defending his right for pennies, it seems.

2025-07-16 04:48:37 +0000 UTCFucking Suvi destroys me every time! She is! The perfect wizard! I want to study her under a microscope. I want her to run for congress. It is impossible for me to be normal about her. What I love so much about wizards is the balance between the thirst for knowledge and hubris! And it's so easy to turn the power that comes with magical knowledge towards control (see citadel). But also! In a world where great spirits exist and have the ability to fuck your shit if they want to why can't humans strive for the same? If they can achieve great works why shouldn't they! But! Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should! Humans don't understand magic and world the way great spirits do. But they can try and achieve their own understanding! And why shouldn't they? I feel like I'm explaining it badly but regardless Aabria nails it.
Liann Schott
2025-07-16 04:48:36 +0000 UTCI even paused the episode and went back to 46 to try and figure it out ☹️
Witch of the Remembering Bog
2025-07-16 04:47:31 +0000 UTCYep. To put Silence under threat, more guards at his and Suvi’s towers and to get rid of a problem. It’s bad in here (the Citadel)
Witch of the Remembering Bog
2025-07-16 04:46:14 +0000 UTCSpoiler for end I think Steel compelled Silver to attempt to kill Silence, knowing he’d die while Silence would only be injured. It keeps Suvi in her place and it removes the only person who knew about Suvi’s intentions for the children.
Witch of the Remembering Bog
2025-07-16 04:42:43 +0000 UTCI think the glass wizards at the Lucent Court will end up having no use for witches, wizards, or spirits and if they succeed at making a great spirit it might by its very definition (and the limits of the glass wizards imagination) exclude all other realities. Hakea says she’s seen this all before but I don’t think she’s seen this.
Stephen Bannasch
2025-07-16 03:56:37 +0000 UTCI think at some point as Eursulon digs into his bigger quest Curran will feel he has his honor back because without his respect and kindness originally to E. the world wouldn’t have a True Spirit of Freedom to help save it — and C. getting his honor back might break the hold MiB has on C.

2025-07-16 02:54:31 +0000 UTCSpoilers of the end of the episode Silver had the letter in his coat. If he didn’t read it and toss it. They are going to search his body. What thee FUCK did the letters say to Sworn and Silver? This is killing me. Silver, if his memory was tampered with, may not have given consent to it if Slate cast the Gaeus upon him. Or Slate was pressing him for more info because she doesn’t believe the facade from Suvi and Steel. I’m so concerned about the fox being visible. I’m concerned that Slate recognizes Enzo while he’s searching for Ame. Eursalon 😭😭😭

Because the connections between the MIB and roads... there are things about him that make sense for him to be a spirit of the world of men- the way that his aims to destroy the citadel very much remind me Of the citadel but... it would also make sense for Sir Curran to be a representation of the world of men, and that explaining why the MIB hates him so much... Was just a little unclear to me what was meant while i was listening

2025-07-15 22:41:58 +0000 UTCI was curious about Suvi mentioning that the wand was still at the north pole. Does she not know Ame stole it (I am remembering that correctly, right?), or was she just trying to protect Ame?

2025-07-15 22:25:07 +0000 UTCYeah, maybe he was compelled or charmed in some way to do what he just did, and that's why he couldn't take or regard the letter, because that wasn't part of the orders he was given

2025-07-15 18:44:24 +0000 UTCSilver was promoted, not demoted. I think it’s possible that Steel, rattled by realizing Suvi knows her memory was tampered with, sent Slate to “handle” Silver’s loose lips. There was an argument and Slate magically compelled Silver since Silver wouldn’t come to heel. Easiest way to remove an issue is to make a person “dangerous.” My concern is with the fact it was Suvi’s mentor and Silver has Suvi’s letter on him. Depending on what the letter said, it’d either look like a scorned ex trying to tear down everything Suvi built or cared about or Silver acting to impress/“help” Suvi and win her back. Either way, I think Scorn is in danger.

2025-07-15 18:29:47 +0000 UTCNo distractions, instant arch mage promotion. That would certainly make it harder to leave
Queen Motoko
2025-07-15 18:28:30 +0000 UTCMaybe, but why? The curse was to prevent Ame from taking up her station, but that goes against Steels agenda as it would mean the Coven of Elders could move against the Citadel with unanimity.

Ruvi
2025-07-15 18:19:37 +0000 UTCWhat a great ep as usual. I love the ink spirits even more now.. . . . Spoilers I don't think Steel was going to have Sliver killed until Suvi begged for his life. Like she said she was going to send him somewhere far off, once Suvi pleaded Steel probably thought " Oh my girl can't help herself. Hasn't truly learned. He has to go" which is messed up. To be clear. Steel is wrong for it. I can see her using this as an opportunity to double down on the lessons and reassert control she has over Suvi. In their last convo Steel saw her grip on Suvi was looser than she originally thought.

Amy Davidson
2025-07-15 17:20:21 +0000 UTC[SPOILERS FOR ENDING] so if Silver was under a geas when he went after Silence… did Steel pick Silence in particular? Why? Feels like Steel could have set Silver at a lot of people more directly connected to his demotion. Was it to get Suvi yet another promotion (does Archmage Apprenticeship even work that way)? Or did Steel want to get rid of someone else with the knowledge of how to destroy a Great Spirit?

dain saint
2025-07-15 16:45:48 +0000 UTCA lot of heavy impact for Suvi today. "I will not survive another disappointment" and that ending! Choices were made and Suvi's conflicted feelings are bound to be more conflicted after this.

2025-07-15 16:27:47 +0000 UTCI'd always thought that the Man in Black must be a spirit of men, particularly because he is deeply connected to the concept of roads, which are established as a human thing

Stiltpuppy
2025-07-15 16:24:30 +0000 UTCI might have to relisten to that because i could have sworn the "he's a spirit of men" line was in reference to Curan, but i could roll with either.
