Celtic Bedtime Story for Deep Sleep 🌙 The Amber Trader
About this story
A trader on the grey Hebridean shore finds a piece of amber with a secret locked inside.
This is a bedtime story for deep sleep — a gentle retelling of folklore, designed to help you let go of the day. Like all our stories, nothing frightening happens. Nothing is left hanging. Everything is resolved by the end, because you are not meant to stay awake for the next part.
This story is part of The Turning Tide, set in The Hebrides. Sea and sky the same silver, and one red croft door holding all the warmth there is.
The pacing is slow and warm, around 120 words per minute — slower than anyone has spoken to you all day. A raven crosses the sky early in the story, and near the end it settles somewhere with its wings folded. That is how you know.
