The Sleeping Almanac
Ragnarok, the Twilight of the Gods · Norse Mythology Sleep Story
The voice you hear is the creator's own. He cloned it from recordings of his own voice, so every story is told in his voice. If you enjoy falling asleep to it, follow the show so each new story arrives on its own, and leave a rating on Apple Podcasts so other people can find it.
Tonight, on the very last night of the old world, you walk with the gods toward their own ending. The wolf slips his chain. The serpent rises from the sea. The horn sounds. The fire comes. And then, very softly, a green earth at dawn, and a few gold chess pieces lying in the new grass.
This is the season finale of The Sleeping Almanac — twelve nights inside Norse myth, ending exactly where the seers said it would end. And then, gently, beginning again.
Settle in. Lower the lights. Goodnight.
EVERYTHING IN ONE PLACE
Sources tonight from Vǫluspá and Snorri Sturluson's Prose Edda.
Goodnight, dear listener. Goodnight.
