Description

In a quiet English countryside, brother and sister Dan and Una stumble upon the last of the ancient fairies, the mischievous Puck. He gifts them a fleeting glimpse of the past, allowing the children to hear voices and see people who once walked the same fields—Roman centurions, Norman knights, Tudor builders—all appearing as if they had never left. Their first summer adventure leads them barefoot through misty meadows, following a mysterious otter trail that drifts past old forges and forgotten farms, each step pulling history into the present.

The stories blend lyrical folklore with gentle lessons about how the land holds countless untold lives. As the siblings grow, Puck returns, guiding them to new spectral encounters while quietly erasing their memory of the meetings, leaving only the wonder of the moment. Listeners are invited to wander with Dan and Una, feeling the rustle of ancient leaves and the echo of forgotten voices, discovering that every path in the hills may hide a kingdom of its own.
