Over the Sea to Skye : Moffat Aboard a Puffer (Excerpt from Moffat III)

What it says, an excerpt from volume III of The Misadventures of Moffat. (As yet untitled, as Alan Davies would have it). If you can't be bothered to read it, I've recorded a reading of it and posted a link at the bottom of the excerpt. Image source is pinterest.nz. No known copyright issues

Life and Times of a Priestess : Ch.13: New Friends In Dumis : Part 1 (Section 6)

Image: 
Priestess Danella has noticed that men are more powerful than women in Prancirian society, and explains to her new Prancirian friends that she feels women in her homeland have a better life. The Prancirian ladies are dubious about the status of Pirionite women, but Danella explains openness and friendship with many is more fulfilling for them. This is a continuing fantasy, a scenario which may not be real in our world for many reasons?
