Roam the streets of the king’s festival in tonight’s medieval fantasy-inspired bedtime story.

In tonight’s story, you are the child of the king regent in a prosperous kingdom. Your father is holding a magnificent festival, at which he plans to announce your accession to the throne. Tired of the pomp and circumstance of courtly life and intrigued by the revelry outside the castle, you disguise yourself as a commoner to move unnoticed among the crowds. While exploring the streets, you meet the ordinary people your kingdom serves, awakening your sense of authenticity and what’s right. The experience leads you to a crossroads in your life.

This story is connected the Dragon Rider and Tavern tales. You don’t need to have heard those stories to enjoy this one, but you may pick up on some recurring characters and threads. This is also the finale of season three of Sleep & Sorcery. I’ll be taking a little break to work on season four – stay tuned to my channels for updates.

If you’re still awake as the story comes to an end, I’ll guide you through a visualization for rest and empathy.

Stories like mine are best with headphones! For comfort and security when drifting off to sleep, SleepPhones are the best thing I've found. They won't fall out like earbuds, and they're not bulky or uncomfortable like most over-ear headphones.
