On the fourth day of #GothicChristmas

Join me for the Tale of The Cargast Coins

Written and Performed by Me.

The fallow season is a time of rest for the living; also a time for us to put away all the things that have entertained us through the brighter months. However, for the creatures of the night and the jealous souls of the restless dead, it is a time for them roam free. The spectres and ghosts use this time to travel far and while, fore they know their time is limited and the days are slowly growing longer... Listen to hear the whole story

Born of fire, these fatherless fraternal two of Niht
From the day they first breathed this darkened air
Conflict was their nature as it was built
betwixt their bones; siblings and rivals.
Like whisps of smoke sailing into the night,
The brother of the sister floats forever on,
He brings that waking dream, Nobleman of the Wist,
And known to ethereal edgelands as Wūscfrēa...

On the first day of #GothicChristmas

The Tale of the Sin Eater and Soul Stealer (listen to the whole story for free, below)

Have you heard of the #Sin Eater & her brother the #Soul Eater — the children of #Death? They play a game of chance to see who they’ll influence next. If she wins, she’ll take your guilt away, if he wins, then he’ll use that guilt to take your soul.
The Sin Eater will take your sin away and help you come to terms with your guilt. Allows you to forgive yourself if you’re ready to change and move forward.
The soul stealer does the opposite, he will try to convince you to hold onto your guilt and never change. Eternal battle

This is the story of the Sin Eater and the Soul Stealer and a chance encounter with these strange creatures.

Written, Directed, Produced and Performed by Me.
