    It is thought by many that love is the greatest power on this earth, but this immense energy can often times backfire. For the gift of love can be harshly tourn from our hands and the resulting pain, is an experience like no other, an experience that has changed many lives and altered the course of history as we know it. For todays tale, we look at a tragic love story and the life long effects of the intertwined relationships that it produced. The Wanderers Grave.

    The fact that the father and the suitor (and the local law enforcement) got away with murder while trying to commit serial rape (I call forced marriage serial rape) is really galling.
    You told this very sad story well.

    I drop everything I’m doing to watch your videos when you post on Patreon, then again when posted on TH-cam!
    I have this quirky thing I do EVERY time…I try to imitate your words/accent out loud making my son shake his head. Lol

    Mary had a little lamb, whose fleece was white as snow. And everywhere Mary went, the lamb was sure to go.
    It even followed her to the land of the dead, because it loved her so.

    I literally said that this happened to me in a past life, to someone a few weeks ago…… and also yesterday watched a shepherdess in AUS on Instagram and I was like this calls to my soul……and then this comes up in my feed…….. p.s. I Know I was English a few times in the past.

    I really did enjoy it! But I mean mean dads seem to be a thing. I know of at least two songs that have them in Lady Dysie and Lady Diamond.

    So the father and the suitor wouldn’t even dirty their hands with this murder, but farmed it off on a servant. Typical rich people.

      It must be such light hearted joy to live your entire life in a bubble
      My own mother was like this man she get her slaves my siblings and dad to murder our pets and torture them and torture abuse and dump them and me
      She demands love respect obedience through abuse torture and imprisonment slander etc...
      This isn't just A story but peoples life experiences today

    It is a fine tale. I would suggest you not allow a boarder to interfere with the telling of tales. A traditional story teller is not blocked by political boarders.
