3.23: Second Citadel--Judgment of the Empire (Part 1)

Sunset. The precise moment the Kite promised his assault on the Second Citadel would come.

But we can choose how much of ourselves we give to them. Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your stay. (Trigger warnings can be found at the bottom of this episode description and at the end of the transcript.)-------You can find all of our transcripts here:https://drive.google.com/drive/u/2/folders/1bnWLw5dTW4l9A0bmOMzEiy6XqqsXHHi_Transcripts will come out along with the public release of the episode.On staff at the Penumbra:Kat Buckingham -- Head of Merchandise and OutreachAlice Chuang -- Head of DesignMelissa DeJesus -- Script editing teamSophie Takagi Kaner -- Co-creator, Head of Episode Development, Director, Sound designerMilo Mars -- Promotional artistNoah Simes -- Production managerGrahame Turner -- Script editing teamKevin Vibert -- Co-creator, Head of Operations, Lead writerRyan Vibert -- Composer and performer of original musicHome recording guidance from Mertz of The Bridge Sound & Stage--------Attribution:Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (3.0) license.http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/legalcode"Kind of Girl" by Jeris, featuring spinningmerkaba: http://ccmixter.org/files/VJ_Memes/35657---------Trigger warnings:-Misogyny-Sudden loud noises-Violence and threats of violenceOur Sponsors:* Check out Factor and use our code penumbra50 for 50% off! factormeals.com/penumbra50Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
