What if the multiverse’s most powerful force wasn’t magic… but logistics?

In this episode of Kris Tells Veers, Kristof and Bruce Veers investigate Franklin’s Freights, the chronotemporal delivery company that promises to get your gear anywhere, anywhen—even before you realize you need it. From goblin couriers trained to withstand dimensional stress, to coupons that summon replacement swords mid-battle, Franklin’s has quietly reshaped adventuring economics across the Crystal Spheres.

Listeners will hear firsthand accounts from Franklin himself, temporal operations staff, R&D potion developers, satisfied (and surprisingly cheerful) customers, and at least one deeply tired interplanar economist. Along the way, Kris and Bruce explore paradox-proof shipping corridors, prophetic business plans, experimental magic with feedback forms, and the unsettling realization that the universe may already have an auditor.

Fast, funny, and just a little causally unstable, this episode delivers everything you didn’t know you were about to order.

Today on Kris Tells Veers, Kristof and Bruce Veers explore a world that should not exist — and yet sails on.

Ezili, the Lost Ocean, is a fractured remnant of a once-whole planet: a disk of endless sea drifting through Wildspace, its waterfalls freezing as they spill into the void, its sky glowing red from a sun beneath the world. What begins as a maritime curiosity quickly becomes something far more ominous as Kris and Bruce uncover Ezili’s harsh legal order, iron-fisted fortress-courts, wandering sisterhoods of faith, and a culture shaped by constant daylight, steam storms, and inherited catastrophe.

As the episode unfolds, the mystery deepens. Songs hint at a forgotten origin. Scholars trace Ezili’s impossible trajectory. And the trail leads inexorably back to Cella-Five — a dracocratic world of dragon-knights, ancient gods, and a catastrophic casting that tore a planet in two. At the heart of it all lies a buried truth: Ezili is not drifting aimlessly. It is moving home.

This is the beginning of a larger story — one of planetary exile, divine imprisonment, and a reckoning centuries in the making.

Kris Tells Veers: Aethera — The World of Six Times

What happens when a world refuses to move forward in a single timeline?

In this episode of Kris Tells Veers, Kristof and Bruce turn their attention to Aethera, a crystal sphere fractured across six overlapping Ages. From the mythic dawn of the Shapers, to the radiant optimism of the Auroran Empire, through divine collapse, heroic defiance, and into the bleak wisdom of the Sixth Age, Aethera exists as layered history made manifest. Travelers don’t arrive where they intend, economies collapse across centuries at once, and destiny competes with sheer dumb luck.

Along the way, voices from across Aethera’s Ages weigh in: scholars, heroes, economists, and survivors of apocalypse, each offering a perspective shaped by their era. At the center of it all lies a haunting truth: Aethera remembers everything, and it refuses to let any of it go.

If you enjoy cosmic lore, layered timelines, and dry commentary on the inevitability of collapse, this dispatch from the Crystal Spheres is for you.
