8/18/08 - Did you miss me? Hmmph. What I really should be asking is ‘did you miss this series?’ I’ve had a number of people email me asking me when I’m going to pick this one back up and the answer is: NOW! I won’t be able to kick it into overdrive and finish off all of the sets in today’s article. I will, however, talk a little about Shadowmoor, a little about Eventide and a lot about the Onslaught block. ~Streetz~ Discuss Here.

The Apprentice Magician, Part One.
