Outro is just section number. As I said, it's not a big deal, but since you have to edit the file anyway, you could cut out the section title at the end. Thanks!

Isana, I just listened to your files - nicely read and PL OK!

Just one remark for the first file: There were a number of footnotes that you chose to include with "footnote - text". I find it easier to follow the main story if there is also an "end footnote" before you go back to the main text.
You don't need to fix this here, but something to keep in mind for future recordings.

Thanks, Ava. I was wondering about the footnotes, so thanks for clarifying that.

It's 6 AM here and listening to these is a great way to start the day. Very calming.

Section 3, The Screen-Maiden PL OK. Thank you, Jennifer!

I'll listen to Larry's next.

Sorry for the delay. I'll get to Larry's section later today.

PL notes for Section 6, The Gratitude of the Samebito:

I have 00:13:34 as the track length (I've corrected the time in the magic window).

00:05:11 -- beautiful gift --> betrothal-gift

00:06:09 -- great price --> great prince

00:11:46 -- sea bridge --> Seta bridge

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this story!

I was amused by the following passage (a paraphrase):

Almost any kind of sickness can be cured by proper medical treatment, except the sickness of love. There is no cure for it, and you must prepare yourself to die.

Oh dear.

Well, we must all die. Eventually...
