 Skill Eater – A Dark Fantasy LitRPG Podcast New Episodes Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday When Kenshiro and his wife Tara were caught in a catastrophic train crash, they didn’t die—they were taken.

Ripped from their world and thrown into a brutal new reality, Kenshiro awakens in a ruined temple, alone and hunted. The only thing keeping him alive? A power unlike any other—the ability to consume the skills of his enemies and make them his own. But every power comes at a price, and the system governing this world is far from impartial. It whispers in his mind, guiding him, shaping him... and it sounds a lot like his wife. As Kenshiro fights to survive, he begins unraveling the mystery of what really happened to them. Tara isn’t gone—she is the system itself, bound to forces even more terrifying than the monsters he faces. To save her, he’ll have to carve his own path through warlords, devils, and ancient powers that see him as either a pawn or prey. In a world where power is devoured, will Kenshiro rise… or be consumed?

    Chapter 51: Mercurial
    Oct 22 2025
    Twelve hard days in the wild leave Kenshiro hungry for a door, a bed, and clean water—but the road won’t cooperate. Small wins on the build front hint at staying power, and the team falls into a relentless cadence: scout, push, recover, repeat. When a warning races back from the trail ahead, talk stops. A surge of borrowed quickness turns the hike into a midnight run.

    What follows is urgency without theatrics—terrain blurring, breath burning, and a creeping certainty that something is very wrong at the end of the path. By the time the trees part, heat and ash make the point for them, and the party is forced to confront a threat that isn’t just another creature on the board.

    Chapter 50.5: Voicemail
    Oct 20 2025
    A short interlude with a single, steady signal: a promise. In the space between calls, Kenshiro leaves a message that’s less confession than compass—love named out loud, direction chosen, and a vow to turn strength into a bridge. No monsters here, no systems spelled out—just intent, clear as a dial tone.

    It’s a breath between battles and a glimpse of why any of this matters. The world can be strange and thrilling; the mission stays simple. Get stronger. Go to Bethaven. Close the distance. Not someday—soon.

    Chapter 50: Anywhere
    Oct 17 2025
    Back in the quiet of her Colorado-shaped sanctuary, Tara resumes a conversation that zooms far beyond four walls. Mela lays out the scale and cadence of the Confluences—worlds drawn toward Nowhere, rules that don’t sit still, and the sobering truth that more gods, races, and power don’t always mean more safety. The living room becomes a classroom and a war room at once, and Tara has to hold two things at the same time: love on a lockscreen, and a universe on the brink of change.

    What follows is a history lesson with teeth. Councils, coalitions, and a grand safeguard meant to steady the storm reveal fault lines among the divine—and the cost when strategy turns into certainty. By the end, the shape of the looming conflict clarifies: it isn’t just about strength, but about who gets to steer fate when new worlds arrive.
