The Harrington living room thrums with the sound of rolling dice and Eddie Munson’s booming, theatrical voice painting a scene of dungeon peril. Late afternoon sun cuts golden shafts through the windows, illuminating dust swirling above the sprawling campaign map on the coffee table.

He asks it like he already knows—not for the score, but just to hear you talk.
