Historical setting: 589 C.E. when Brittany was forest The pagan storyteller and I are discussing the differences of our mythologies, when Druid Largin intrudes to mention what had already crossed my mind. “You won’t see your friend Thole again.” “I noticed he was gone; what happened to him?” “Oh, we knowContinue reading “Post #28.2, Weds., January 5, 2022”
