THE ROGUE GHOST PODCAST: EPISODE 42
A GUARDIAN AWAKENS
A Vatican heist and a starlet’s confession collide when a birthmark turns into a key—awakening the Guardian who can open Box Eight just as the Cerberus Syndicate closes in.
Deep beneath Vatican City, Runeweaver and Laura Morrison slip past the Spectrus Order Sanctum’s wards to swap a perfect replica for the real Eighth Puzzle Box in the Arcanum vault. Meanwhile in London, the Rogue Ghost and Runeweaver crash Kristy Walsh’s noir-drenched premiere and after-party at the Shard, where glamour masks shadows and every whisper hints at danger. As the Christmas Card responds in startling ways, Cerberus Syndicate agents close in, forcing a desperate escape to the watermill sanctuary. There, the Eighth Puzzle Box awakens with power unlike anything they’ve seen—reshaping the quest just as Alessandro delivers an urgent message: Thomas Chance has uncovered something that could change everything.
Embrace the journey where adventure and magic blend seamlessly, setting the stage for discoveries that could alter the fabric of reality.
