About this listen
In this episode, host Alexandria Quinn Love takes you just outside the door of the Seven Curses tavern, where our protagonist, Evandar, faces his first real confrontation. We explore how a tense standoff with two dangerous mercenaries reveals a character's true skill and history without a single sword being drawn.
Alexandria breaks down the scene from Flame and Shadows Keeper, analyzing how tension is built through posture, dialogue, and positioning. Discover the three crucial things a single, swift action can tell us about Evandar's speed, strength, and experience, and why restraint is often more menacing than aggression. This is a deep dive into showing, not telling, and establishing a character as a master of violence who uses it as sparingly as possible.
