Step into the cold, stone chambers of medieval medicine — where a woman’s body was misunderstood, mistreated, and mythologized. In this immersive historical sleep story, you’ll become the subject of gynecological “care” in a time ruled by holy relics, wandering wombs, and remedies more dangerous than the illness. Told in a calm, weary voice and steeped in real historical detail, this darkly educational narrative explores the brutal intersection of ignorance, religion, and medicine — where pain was spiritual, consent was irrelevant, and survival was never guaranteed.
