So since we talked a bit about worldbuilding and the ocean in the last episode, we talked more about how the sea affects the planet in episode 139. Micheal and I knew we needed to talk about storytelling and the sea.
So, join Michael and I as we explore many stories that have shown up from before the written world unto Waterworld. Of course, he made us talk about WaterWorld.

So I hear a lot from worldbuilders. I have interviewed them on the podcast. I talk to them all the time in the Fantasy Worldbuilder's Undercroft Facebook group. When the topic shifts to storytelling. The most common topics are act structures. The two most common versions are the 3 act structure and the 5 act structure.

Common structures in storytelling are vital. They make it easier for readers to make sense of the stories. It has an additional benefit for the storyteller. Structure tells us when to climax the story and start the resolution. I am not an academic or even overly educated in the structure and plots and stories. However, I have seen and read many stories. And most of them have either the 3 act structure or the 5 act structure.
I am not an academic or even overly educated in the structure and plots and stories. However, I have seen and read many stories. And most of them have either 3 act structure or the 5 act structure. They alone will not name your story great. However, great structure gives your story the needed foundation to build up.
Join Michael and I as we look at the 3 act structure and the 5 act structure in this weeks episode of the Worldbuilder's Anvil Podcast.

Today's Topic Creating a home for a villain
Michael and I hope you enjoyed the first part of the story, "Marcus and the Jewels of Daivvavaahra". In the story, we talked about an old castle that was being rented to a new merchant. However, we recorded this first.
It is an example of how I do a quick build for a new structure for my fantasy world, Gardul. We create in general a small old castle that sits in the middle of the old part of the city of Baurhdrakkas. It ended up with one tall tower an important set piece for the story. There is also one room that stores the Jewels of Daivvavaahra.
That means the room should be the location of this heist story. Check out the episode and let us know what you want to know more information about.
