Welcome to Story River Fables (previously Waffle-Free Storytelling)

A fun little tale about Gaia. It's her backstory, Story River Fables style.

Origin stories are, by far, one of my favourite fables. The world is a beautiful place, despite all our efforts to undo it.

Put your feet up, fill your mug, and join me for a fable story moment. You are a remarkable human. Keep that in mind as you turn your face to the sun. You're a remarkable human on a one-in-a-billion planet. We're lucky, you and I.

When the story's done, feel free to enjoy the rest of the site (https://tinakonstant.com/) for more stories and other stuff and nonsense.
