Indigenous myth and Scottish folklore collide on the windswept Orkney Islands in an evocative tale of ancient ocean spirits, kinship, and healing. After meeting at the lively Edinburgh Storytelling Festival, Maori protagonist Cowrie and Inuit storyteller Sasha travel north to the rugged shores of the Orkney Islands. Hosted by the enigmatic crofter and fisherman Morrigan at the Bay of Skaill, the diverse group of international storytellers gathers near ancient neolithic sites like the Ring of Brodgar and Skara Brae. Yet Morrigan hides a deep connection to the mysterious sea creatures that haunt the rocky coastline. As seals gather in the surf and ancient ancestral stories are shared around peat fires, long-buried secrets emerge from the depths. In Song of the Selkies, Cowrie must listen closely to the wisdom of the waves to uncover the truth behind Morrigan's past and the legendary transformation between human and sea.
