Tonight you arrive with a caravan at a stone inn on the Silk Road, somewhere between Bukhara and Samarkand, around eight hundred years ago, as the great gates close against the cold desert night. Inside there is fire, warm tea, fed and settled camels, and travelers from many lands, all safe behind thick walls while the road and the cold stay outside. A bed waits at the end of a long day, under a sky heaped with stars.\nYou will hear the low fire, the desert wind pressing at the walls, camels settling into the straw, and travelers trading quiet words over tea in the languages of four corners of the world. The gates are barred, the lamps are few and warm, and the desert, for all its cold and its distance, stays outside.\nThis is a three hour sleep story. The narration ends softly around the 33 minute mark, and then the low fire and the desert wind carry on until morning. Black screen friendly.\nChapters:\n0:00 Welcome\n3:20 The Road at Dusk\n6:14 The Gate\n8:23 The Courtyard\n10:31 The Animals\n13:21 The Keeper\n16:22 The Warm Room\n19:37 A Word for the Road\n21:56 Supper and the Fire\n24:28 The Cell\n27:21 The Inn Settles\n30:17 Drifting\n33:33 The fire and the wind until morning\nListen with the video on YouTube: add the episode link.\nNew episodes Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 6pm Eastern.
