Listen "The Mora"
Episode Synopsis
To save the woman they both love, two men enter a forest where magic cannot abide, and any magic that enters unravels in unexpected and dangerous ways. Genre: Fairy Tale, Mythology, Fantasy Excerpt: It was a time when dragonflies could flutter all the way up to the moon, when the flickering of a hummingbird's wings was faster than lightning. It was a time when the growl of thunder signified the coming of a catastrophe, a cracking of the earth, a roiling of the seas, a shuddering of the heavens. It was a wild time. And into this time was born a creature that her mother called Mora. What's the Word (that inspired the story)?Remora: Definition 2. Archaic. An obstacle, hindrance, or obstruction.
