For millennia, Death watched over the fleeting lives of mortals, claiming their souls as is her duty. Each year, the story was the same. Humans wasted the gifts they were given, allowing the precious sands of time to slip through their grasp. But, who did they blame? Not themselves, of course, but the horseman who came to collect her due. Such an existence grew tiresome for the creature. Bored of humanity’s antics, the reaper opened a quiet apothecary and began peddling her curious wares. Her little shop became an escape from their ire, a distraction to pass the decades.

On a narrow country road in the English countryside, a faded cream-and-green bus rolls through the twilight — slow, steady, quiet. It stops at a sign that reads Before Your Dream. One by one, passengers board: an elderly woman with a basket of warm scones, a man with a bouquet he doesn’t remember picking up, a girl in boots too large. They don’t speak. They simply know it’s time.

In a quiet lane beneath the clocktower, there is a small shop that lives between time and memory. Its shelves are filled with forgotten treasures—canes polished by years of touch, violins that remember their music, books that still breathe with stories. And at the back of the room, lit by a single candle, stands a mirror that does not reflect the face, but something deeper.

En las profundidades del tiempo y del océano duerme algo que no debería existir, aguardando el momento de despertar. A través de diarios, informes y testimonios dispersos, un hombre se aproxima a una verdad tan inmensa que amenaza con quebrar la mente humana: la existencia de Cthulhu, un ser ancestral cuya sola presencia desafía la razón y el orden del cosmos. Escuchar o leer La llamada de Cthulhu es adentrarse en el corazón del horror cósmico, un viaje hacia lo desconocido que define toda la obra de H. P. Lovecraft.

Die Geschichten wecken Erinnerungen an vertraute Erlebnisse: den Duft von frischen Sonntagsbrötchen, das Knarren alter Holzstühle im Dorfgasthof oder das Kribbeln bei der ersten Fahrradtour. Jede Erzählung ist kurz, bildhaft und voller Gefühl – ideal zum Vorlesen, gemeinsamen Eintauchen und Wiederentdecken.

Du triffst Figuren zwischen 60 und 75, die aus alltäglichen Momenten kleine Abenteuer machen. Ein geplatzter Plan wird zum Startschuss, ein schiefer Anfang zur humorvollen Anekdote. Die Geschichten sind klar erzählt, voller Sinneseindrücke und enden mit einem Bild, das nachklingt: der Duft von nassem Holz im Gemeinschaftsgarten, ein Chorakkord, der im Brustkorb weiter schwingt, das Klicken eines reparierten Toasters.

Die Geschichten sind in einer einfachen und klaren Sprache verfasst, sodass sie jedem Zuhörer Freude bereiten. Von heiteren Begegnungen bis zu rührenden Momenten – jede Geschichte bietet beste Unterhaltung und sorgt für schöne Momente und Erinnerungen.

In a quiet mountain temple where morning mist drifts like prayer, stillness becomes its own form of devotion. Clouds Resting on the Temple Roof is a sleep story for adults written to guide the listener toward rest, reflection, and peace.
