The Fairy Tale of Fairy Tales

"The Fairy Tale of Fairy Tales" opens in a mythic age when the Spirit-King Tien divides his four kingdoms among his daughters: Thalatta of the sea, Ætheria of the sky, Fiamma of fire, and gentle Hertha of the earth. Into this world steps Andrea, son of an Indian enchanter, armed with a magic mirror and a mantle, tasked with finding a bride among the elemental queens. His encounters with the proud sky-queen and the treacherous fire-queen test his wits and courage — but it is a chance meeting beside a river, without mirror or magic, that may reveal what he truly seeks.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ririro-com-short-stories--6577582/support.
