The Gates of Heaven

Today’s episode of the Westside Fairytales will let us see the furthest limits to which loyalty might push us, by putting us in the shoes of a soldier faced with unthinkable duties. In the last months of a war he does not yet know has all but ended, he’ll be pushed to carry out orders beyond the scope of anything he’s ever, even in his worst nightmares, thought could come to pass. And we’ll see if those golden tethers of loyalty, so valuable and yet so easily broken, will bend him to the task at hand.This month’s recommendations:Literature recommendation: ”Night” by Elie WeiselRandom horror recommendation: Silent Hill from KonamiThanks for listening!
