The Liberty Podcast

Greetings Citizens, A few very important announcements from the Liberty Creative Team.

Citizen Powell is leaving Atrius. The oppressive laws of the Archon disgust him and he feels like he's being watched at every turn. Can he make it beyond the city's walls before his plan is discovered? Join your host for this nighttime broadcast and and hope that the Archon watches over you. Credits: Written by Pacific S.

The cold case that was cracked open last episode continues. Agent Gray has disappeared and the devastated yet dedicated Agent Caulfield pursues her case at great cost. Is the situation truly hopeless, or will Caulfield's zeal lead him to some much-needed answers. Join your host for this nighttime broadcast and and hope that the Archon watches over you.

Agents in The Division of Community Order often find themselves with overwhelming workloads. Tasked with dozens of new non-violent crimes and domestic disputes each day, there's seldom a chance to reflect on cold cases. A chance discussion brings a new and sinister perspective to a missing persons' case that's been closed for over a decade.

Jalloh overhears disturbing news and takes dangerous steps to aid her undercover comrades. They're at last ready to plan an escape, but they're not leaving without the Atrian guns and with each hour that passes, the night grows more menacing.

Sev and Dr. Kovski are sent out on a massive trade run and find themselves traversing the Fringe with a band of heavily armed Punks. Meanwhile, back at the Hot, Jalloh is assigned a mundane cleaning task that causes her to witness an unsettling occurrence.

The Atrians, deeply embedded within their new Fringer "family", continue their hunt for answers and escape... against increasingly mounting odds. With the raid of the Kon facility still fresh in his mind, Sev finds himself in a morally questionable situation; Jalloh, having sent out a message for help, finds another Atrian connection she was not expecting; and Dr. Kovski tails Dismas to a set of executions. His conclusion: he could learn a lot more once all this Punk business is over.

The hour of the raid is here, and the Punks ready-up for a night to be remembered. Jalloh, sent to blow open a new entrance, gets the opportunity she has been waiting for. Sev faces a sad reality in the midst of a fire-fight, and Dr. Kovski begins to see that there is a lot to be learned from Fringer warfare.
