About this episode

Today's story is set in ancient Greece and is about a water nymph named Chelone. She was shy and an introvert, which means she preferred time alone, quiet, and by herself. Listen along as Chelone ends up teaching the greek gods a lesson, and her punishment winds up being a fantastic gift in her eyes.
