Summary
This is a preview of a bonus episode that is only available to Drift Off Premium members. To listen to the entire episode, you can sign up at driftoff.supercast.com
Tonight’s story is called Graciosa and Percinett, a French fairytale by Madam D’Aulnoy. This story is about a young prince by the name of Percinet who falls in love with Graciosa and shows her true love.
Music in episode is called 'Soothing Piano' via Pond5
I must admit that sometimes while narrating this story, I found the 'helplessness' of the heroin and her father's lack of judgement a bit tiresome! It definitely reminds me of how far we've come as a modern society, even though we still have ways to go. So I hope you can put this aside and just enjoy the narration and the soft music to help you relax and drift off ;)
