Anomaly Valley

Video description: Trailer for “Anomaly Valley.” 53 seconds. Title card with the words “Podcast Episode” and “Genre: Science Mystery” is displayed at top. Story tagline is displayed at bottom. Tagline reads, “An explorer gets lost in a spatiotemporal anomaly that was once the treasure vault of an alien pirate.” The title card and tagline fade. Digital drawing. Two figures. At left, a young man lies on the grassy ground on his stomach, his arms folded, his head resting on his left arm, seen from knees up, face turned forward, eyes closed. At right, another young man kneels before the other, looking down at him, his right leg folded up, hands resting lightly on the ground. He’s wearing a backpack. The grass is purple and the sky is green. At top left, hanging in the air, are bright orbs with hazy glows. Watermark of the word “storyfeather” lies over image. Subtitles appear in time with music and narration at the bottom: “He fell through the sky. He fell to Earth. Into the South Pacific. He managed to swim to a shore, or perhaps was washed ashore. And there he was found by a people who gave him a treasure that he had not known in a long, long while and did not deserve. They gave him mercy. And that was why he gave them his story, even the ugliest parts of it. It was the only treasure he had left.” Story title appears at top as the image blurs. Text box appears at center displaying the words, “Listen on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, iHeartRadio, Spotify, Stitcher, and so on. Or listen on my Podcast page at storyfeather.com.”
