The Yellow Frigate; or, The Three Sisters

In the shadow of the crumbling cathedral at Dunblane, three marble slabs mark the graves of three sisters whose lives were bound to the tides of Scotland’s history. One was pledged to a valiant soldier, another to a daring seafarer, and the youngest to a monarch whose fame still echoes across the Highlands. Their intertwined destinies, hinted at by the ancient stones, beckon the curious to uncover love, loyalty, and loss woven into the very fabric of the land.

The tale lifts from the quiet graveyard to the restless sea, where the Yellow Frigate—Scotland’s proud warship—cuts through the misty waters of the Tay in 1488. Onboard, a brave knight and his companions set sail on a mission that will test their courage and reveal the hidden ties between the sisters and the ship’s perilous voyage. As the logbook’s fragments surface, listeners are drawn into a world of medieval politics, naval adventure, and the lingering whisper of the sisters’ secret pact.
