Counterbalance
Counterbalance is a high fantasy audio drama set in a world where a hole has been torn into the weave that creates magic, allowing malevolent spirits to threaten mortals. The story follows three individuals on a journey to repair the tear while uncovering who was responsible for causing it. As they investigate, they face dangers from both the spirits and the mysterious forces behind the rupture, leading to a quest that could determine the fate of magic itself.
