‘The Six Deaths of the Saint’ is a fantasy short story about an orphan and how far she’ll go to be beloved. 

This was really fun. I loved the plot and the characters. Most of the time with short stories that I enjoy, I end it wanting more and a fully fleshed out version but I was perfectly satisfied with this. I also really loved the narration! It was proper voice acting rather than just reading the text and it was fantastically done. 

“unloved and unknown except by one another.”
