If you are listening to this while you are inside the chapel at Wybalenna, these stories are designed to be experienced in order, clockwise around the chapel.

If you are listening from another place, you can follow the chapters in order, or experience only the stories of people as you choose. Either way, you will gain a better understanding of the Free People of Lutruwita because each chapter tells an aspect of the story, supported by accounts of one of our people.
