S01_EP09: Folktales of Ireland_FaeryTale

In the second last episode of 2021, I bring to you another unique and very rare story from Ireland, a land globally known for its folktales, myths, legends, and fairytales. Many a time we hear and narrate stories about sweet and giving fairies. But rarely do we hear stories about mischievous and deceptive faeries. The difference lies not only in the spelling (fairy and faery) or pronunciation but also in the behavior of these mythical characters. In this story, we step into the world of the faeries and know them a little more!! Enjoy another Irish magic. Happy Listening!! 😊
