Build a magical world alongside the elves in tonight’s high fantasy bedtime story. In tonight’s story, you – an immortal elf – face the end of an age in your realm. As magic fades from the world, you and your kind construct a new, enchanted world to inhabit, leaving the ordinary behind. But you reflect on the little wonders left on the other side of the veil, and ponder whether you might prefer to stay in the mortal realm, tending to what small magics remain. Sleep & Sorcery is a folklore and fantasy-inspired sleep series. My name is Laurel, and I’ll be your guide on tonight’s fantastical journey. Sleep & Sorcery is one part bedtime story, one part guided meditation, and one part dreamy adventure. Listen to my voice for as long as it serves you, and when you’re ready, feel free to let go of the story and relax into sleep. If you’re still awake as the story comes to an end, I’ll guide you through a meditation for enchantment. -   🌙 Audience Survey 🌙   I want to get to know you better!
