🎧 The Trouble with Angels — Season 1, Episode 3: The Lost Child’s Path Home (Chapter 4) Sometimes salvation isn’t a choir of angels. Sometimes it’s a rat named Pierre… offering a child a way out. In Chapter 4, we leave the polished nightmare of bureaucratic eternity and slip into the tunnels under old Paris—where language travels strangely, wormholes behave like open doors, and a small, battered soul finds the first real kindness she’s had in far too long. In This Episode (Spoiler-Free) * We meet Pierre, a multilingual, mildly telepathic rat with a job, a reputation, and a soft spot he doesn’t understand yet * A hidden wormhole opens into a stark historical world where a lonely child tends cabbages in silence * A friendship forms fast—because sometimes safety can’t wait for permission * The story shifts from eerie wonder to tender found-family warmth * A new home is offered… and accepted ⚠️ Content Advisory This episode includes references to child neglect/abuse in a historical setting, emotional distress, and themes of abandonment and rescue. It’s handled with care, but please take care of you. 🎧 Listen Wherever You Get Your Podcasts Spotify • Apple • YouTube • and beyond ✨ And if you want more of my audio stories, you can also listen to Sadie Cohen: Bounty Hunter and Boarding School Murder Mystery wherever you’re listening now. ✍️ Credits Written & Read by: Glory Fink Sound Engineering: Tom Fink Original Story Series: Gloryous Magazine on Substack 🎵 Theme Music: Heaven and Earth — Jeremy Black 🎵 Additional Music: First Sleep — Sir Cubworth ✨ Listen If You Love * 😇 Good Omens (celestial systems + heart) * 🗂️ The Good Place (afterlife rules + comedy) * 🌙 Welcome to Night Vale (surreal tenderness) * 🕯️ The Magnus Archives (when cozy turns ominous) * 🧸 Found-family stories with strange guides and soft hope 📚 Read Along + Support the Story (Gloryous Magazine) If you’re enjoying The Trouble with Angels, you’ll love the written chapters (and the behind-the-scenes chaos) in Gloryous Magazine.
