PodCastle Miniature 31 – Down in the Flood

by Nisi Shawl.
Read by Elizabeth Green Musselman.

The gods were at it again: giggling, babbling and running back and forth through the Abode of Heaven. Echoes rattled my drums and flutes against the walls where they were hung. A cymbal crashed to the floor.

“Quiet, kids!” I shouted out. “Settle down, or you’ll have to go play in the Void!”

Rated PG. Contains children with the powers of gods, or Gods with the temperaments of children.

    Very nice. It puts me in mind of Ellen Klages’s flash story that was on here not too long ago. And being the mom of a rambunctious 5-year-old, I definitely can relate to the grumpiness when one keeps getting interrupted from her bath.
