Beautiful story, loved it. The reader has a very pleasant voice and did a great job with the different personalities and the Irish accent. Being not a native English speaker I'm fascinated of the different English accents and the historical English. Thank you very much, dear reader! :3

I love Andrew Lang stories. although this one pulled in some places and seemed a bit incoherence in others.
Terrible story
