November 10, 2026 · 32 min

Show notes

In which a fierce tempest besets a royal vessel upon the vast and mysterious sea, conveying those aboard to an enchanted isle governed by the stern yet learned Prospero, who reveals to his daughter Miranda the tale of their lost dukedom and the treacheries that brought them to this remote dominion. Amidst the stirring winds and magical spirits, the narrative unfolds with shadows of betrayal, the arrival of noble castaways, and the uneasy reckonings upon this bewitched shore.
