Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Seventh Daughter contains scenes of realistic violence and graphic sexuality.
It is intended for mature listeners. Have you come seeking knowledge?
Do you wish to know the truth? Allow me to
show you. Close your eyes and follow the sound of
(00:24):
my voice. Allow it to lead you further into the past.
Wherever my voice leads, you must follow. Let it pull
you down beneath the surface of your waking mind. Feel
(00:51):
yourself thinking deeper. Like a stone, drop into the ocean.
You slide through the depths of the cold, cold water
until you settle on the bottom. When I will leave
(01:15):
my blindfold, you may look into my eyes. Don't just
look at them, look through them, and you will see
what they have seen, and all my secrets will be revealed.
(01:35):
The Seventh Daughter, Oh Gros, thank you girls, that was lovely.
(02:55):
For the remainder of the morning, you may go outside
and enjoy the sunshine in the garden, in the lee,
may the flowers of the field, the swans in our pond,
and the fragrance in the air remind you of our
heavenly Father who created them. What is the color of saying?
(03:36):
That is ash man? Goodies would for having faith? Dear,
that's very pretty pearl. Thank you, Sister Rays. Is there
(04:01):
some reason you're not playing with the other girls, No,
Sister Trees. Sometimes I just like to be alone. I
certainly understand. May I sit with you for a moment, Yes,
of course, Pearl, what is it? In a moment, I'll
(04:23):
ask you to come inside with me to talk to
Mother Superior. Did I do something wrong? No, child, as
if you could ever do anything worthy of punishment. Now
there's someone here to see you from the outside, to
see me. That's correct. Who is it? You'll find out
(04:44):
soon enough. But listen to me, Pearl. What you learn
in there may come as something of a surprise, a
pleasant one, I'm sure of it. But I want you
to just keep your heart open, because sometimes change is
God's way of providing us with new opportunities to glorify
(05:07):
his name in ways we never could imagine change. You
needn't be afraid. This is most irregular. We cannot simply
allow you to come in without advanced notice and just
just take the child. Only a child's parent has the authority.
(05:28):
I am here about the authority on a child's Farah
William a podcast. The third, you have the letter? Who
knows where this letter came from. Compare the signature on
a liver to that one on a document. When she
has got left here, that will leave no room for
anyone can forge a signature. No one except her father
(05:48):
knows the dallas here. No one will said these worlds
even nor she exists. For what other purpose would I
come to retriever, except to take up to what has
happened to you, dear sister, to make yourself cynical? Cynical?
Is it cynical for me to want to protect? What's this?
(06:14):
The bottom half of a card torn in half the
High Priestess when the girl were left here eleven year ago.
The other half of his card were placed in her
basket as a sort of claim ticket, treating her as
if she were a piece of luggage. I presume you
(06:36):
still have the other half? Well, there can only be
a one corresponding card. Yeah, well do the two have
a mega whole? Even if you have the authority to
(06:58):
reclaim the try There is a matter of finances. Her
room and board have not been paid in at least
two years. When her father left her in our care,
he did so with a promise that certain obligations to
people for money. My dear woman, who I didn't just simply,
(07:20):
I'm only trying to ensure you're saying that this modern
Sittlia count I don't no, this is almost irregular. Allow me, no,
that really isn't necessary. Look at it. You could certainly
(07:45):
clothed and feared a lot of cheering with the gold,
and that's on a table, if you'll forgive me for cne.
It appeared to me that some of our holy sisters
called you, some read months as well. Just a moment, please,
(08:13):
m hm, you may enter, Ah, sister Teres, I see
you brought pearl, Pearl, Yes, come closer, don't be shy, Pearl.
This is Mrs ms Rose. She's come here today on
(08:36):
behalf of your father, my father. What's wrong with us?
You'll have to excuse her. This must come as something
from a surprise to her. You see, she has no
knowledge of her family, only that she has a father. Otherwise,
no communication, not so much as a letter or a postcard.
(08:57):
So to suddenly be that's enough, Sister a Race. I'm
sure ms I'm sure the woman is well acquainted with
the father's, well with the family she is representing. Pearl
Ms Rose has come for you. She has come to
take you to your father. My father wants me, of
(09:20):
course he does, Pearl. It was only a matter of
time until he could send for you. Yes, and that
time is now. Step close, a girl. Let me look
at you. Show me your aunts her hands. Let's see
how well you have been cared for. How dare you
(09:40):
mm hm ah, you have not had such a difficult
time here? So saft and wait, you're not spending many
hours in a field in the kitchen. I see you
are right. What do you rate my lessons, penmanship, scripture?
(10:03):
Mm hmm, open your mouth. I beg your pardon. But
is this show me your teeth? Uh huh m hmm.
Your father will expect to know how well they've cared
for you. Here. I know your feet really now, I
(10:24):
must inst need to be sure you are who they
say you are at her feet. Go on, Pearl, do
as she asks. You cannot allow her to treat the
child as that's enough terrace a piece of livestock, or
as if we would would somehow deceive her by silence, Pearl,
(10:48):
show her your feet. Satisfied, Now quite satisfied, Please gather
the girl stinks. I'll instruct a carriage to leave in
twenty minutes time. We have a train to catch that
should be modern enough time to bid her fair winds.
(11:12):
Come along, Pearl, I'll help you pack your things. Thank you,
Sister Teresa. My father. She's taking me to my father. Yes,
it's it's wonderful. I was beginning to think he never
(11:33):
come for me, that I'd have to spend the rest
of my life alone. It really is a miracle, isn't it.
What is it? Sister Trees? Aren't you happy for me?
I am, of course, I am, child. I couldn't be happier.
But but what you're You're going to meet your father
(11:57):
and live with him, and I'm or you'll be very
happy in his care. But let me say this to you.
The world beyond these walls can be difficult and confusing place.
Should something happen, should your situation change, You're always welcome
(12:20):
to return to us here what might happen? Life is
full of surprises, Pearl, surprises and disappointments. But sister too
is I shouldn't be saying these things to you. It's
foolish of me, I know, but I really care about
your Pearl, and I've come to look upon you as
(12:41):
almost as a daughter, and nothing means more to me
than your happiness. So should you ever need someone or someplace,
I don't understand. Is there something wrong? There's nothing to
There's nothing wrong. Please, it's just it's the pain of
(13:01):
losing you. So suddenly the heartbrick of saying goodbye? Forgive me?
Can I can I say a prayer for your protection
right now? Of course, most powerful, Heavenly Father. It is
(13:22):
with some personal sadness that I bid farewell to Pearl,
But it is with immense gladness that I release her
into the world, where I know you are guiding and
protecting hand will remain upon her. I pray that you
will provide her earthly father with the love in his
heart to care for her, give him the judgment to
(13:45):
protect her. And I pray that that this woman, this
person into whose temporary care Pearl is being intrusted. That
her sister Joyce. Sister Joyce Amen now boarded the two
(14:24):
ten Arrow had expressed north then Nashville, Louisville, Cincinnati. Leave
your things there, We'll have a porter. Bringdon the board.
You're there. You can't board this car. Get back to
the Colored Fat. I have two second class tickets to
(14:45):
Steal City, which can move up after they crossed the
Mason Dixon. But until then you can only ride in
the provate coach. This girl is in my care and
taking her to her father, a very important man. I
don't make the rules, lady. Do you actually expect her
to ride in the back with girl can ride where
she wants, But as long as we're in this state,
(15:08):
you don't get in that car unless you'd rather walk.
I suggest you get back to the colored coach where
you're along. Come along, yeah, here, I'll put your grip overhead.
(15:41):
Go ahead and sit. Can I sit by the window
if you like? How long will the train read? Last?
About six hours? But sitting back here, it'll feel like twelve.
Why are you looking at me like, uh? You want
(16:02):
to ask me something? No? Sorry? Have you never ridden
a train before? No? Never? Never? Have you ever been
to the city, Steel City, any city? No? Ever been
outside the valley? No, ma'am. Mm hmm. Well, until I
(16:30):
deliver you to your father. As long as you are
in my care, you will do exactly as I say.
Do you understand? Yes, ma'am. Do not question my judgment,
Do not defy my authority. Do you understand, Yes, ma'am,
say you understand, I understand you will not say a
(16:54):
word to anyone man, woman, black or white unless I
instruct you too. Is that understood? I understand? Humph. I
suppose the Good Sisters told you all about Steel City,
what a dark and iniquitous place it is, haven't they. Yes,
(17:17):
you know what iniquitous means, sinful? Sinful, that's right, And
they probably taught you about the kind of people that
live in that iniquitous city and the lengths they'll go
to to sink their teeth into a young girl like you. Hum. Yes,
(17:39):
m m. Well, don't you worry, little one. Rose is
not going to let any harm come to you as
long as you do exactly as I say. I understand.
You disobey me and I will throw you to the dogs. Yes, ma'am.
(18:00):
Ye are you hungry? Oh? Of course you are. We'll
find ourselves something to eat. See if we can't work
our way up in the world. H Are we allowed?
You leave that to me? Hurry up? Now, excuse me, sir.
(18:23):
Is there a dining car on this train? I believe
there's one, Sorry, lady. Dining car is open to first
and second class passengers only it's just the little girl,
you see. She didn't get any lunch, and she can
go ahead, but you gotta wait in the colored coach.
You could always get off and get something in oak
Ward or Nashville. Yes, sir, sorry to trouble you, sir,
(18:46):
you'll be fine, child. Let's go on back to our car.
(19:07):
Are you all right? Child? Yes? I just lost my balance.
Stand right there. Tell me if anyone is coming, how
are you doing? Keep your eyes open and your mouth shut.
Remember what I told you about what? Oh? Jee as?
(19:35):
Somebody helped her handing down the stairs. All right, step aside,
let me okay, what's going on? She's bleeding? What have
they done to you? We were walking back to our car.
The train lurched and she just gets into That's enough now,
white ours. I closed that stair on myself. Jesus, could
(19:57):
you could any thing else? You will have to get
her up itself. She's bleeding. Look at her. You won't
do anything her. Poor mother. Please, the mother is going
to be furious. Please the girl. The girl, tell me,
young lady, are you are you boys? Just lay down
(20:23):
on the bed just like that. We'll have to kill you.
Look at her as soon as we pull into Oakwood.
Thank you, sir. I'm sure she'll be fine, just scared.
More than anything. You've been most kind to the girl.
We truly do regret what happened to the girl. I
appreciate that, sir. Well, I suppose I should get back
(20:46):
to the colored coat. No, ma'am. Under the circumstances, we
and I speak for the railroad as well as Mr
Peters and myself, we think it would be better for
the girl if you stay with her and enjoy this
first class compartment with our compliments. Thank you, sir. Mm hmm.
(21:08):
But you see, I was just what is it? I
was just trying to find some food for the child
when the incident occurred. She hadn't had a bite to
eat all day. Oh well, I'll speak to the porter
and have a bowl of souper, two bowls of soup
(21:29):
brought to you to your compartment. Mm hmm. Is that
a bowl of soup will hardly compensate her for the
cunt on her head? Beg your pardon. It's a miracle
she's even alive. I heard someone say the stair guard
had been left open. That's quite impossible. Nevertheless, I shall
(21:52):
have to tell all this to her father. The Senator
will be very unhappy about it. As I said, we
all feel terrible about what happened, and I'm sure I
could get the necessary authorization to offer a small, yes,
financial compensation for her suffering. That's most generous of you.
(22:15):
Tell me how much does a cut on the head
cell for these days? How much are you asking? Make
us an offer? I'll I'll see to it now, eyes open,
(22:37):
mouth shut, I understand. Have something to eat, then get
some rest. Once we get to Steal City, will begin
(23:05):
the ocean. This is Still City. Five minutes in Still City,
it is to enlist there. There are your backs over there,
get them in death the Northbound Arrowhead Express, but a
part in exactly eleven. We've sent our sons to defend
freedom and liberty. What are you looking for? Arms were
(23:31):
at the station? No, child, we won't be seeing your
father just uilt. There are some things we need to
take care of first. Hurry up, now, do your share
to defeat the tyrants, liberty, war bonds. Hyah, Okay, we're
(24:11):
just up here, and watch your step. Now. Is this
where my father lives? This is where you're living for
now until we can meet your father. Yeah, m hm, oh,
(24:34):
drop your bags in the corner. I made up a
palette for you on the floor. There's a commode outside
at the end of the hall, and cold water here
in the tap. Why are you looking like that? Oh
you were expecting something more. It ain't the ritz, honey.
But oh the banner. I hung it there so you
(24:58):
could have some privacy behind in it. Who's the woman
whose space is painted on the canvas you can read?
Called herself Davina hypnotist, mentalist, mesmerist. It is illegal to
tell fortunes, but yes, you might call her that. You'll
(25:23):
find out soon enough. But right now it's time for
me to smoke my pipe and for you to stop
asking questions. I'll be going out for a few hours
in the morning, but i'll be back early. Clean the
room while i'm gone, yes, ma'am. And if anybody knocks
(25:45):
on the door, don't let them in. Don't let nobody in. Um.
What is it? Child? What should I call you? I mean,
how should I address you? You call me Rose? Rose,
(26:06):
That's all you need to know, Yes, ma'am. The less
you know about me, the better. I must now replace
my blind hold as my vision begins to fade, your
(26:30):
own senses will gradually return, Return to the warmth in
the light of your own reality. The Seventh Daughter is

Brett Wood, recorded and mixed by Rob Gal, featuring Minca

Somebody helped her handing down the stairs. All right, step aside,
let me okay, what's going on? She's bleeding? What have
they done to you? We were walking back to our car.
The train lurched and she just gets into That's enough now,
white ours. I closed that stair on myself. Jesus, could
(19:57):
you could any thing else? You will have to get
her up itself. She's bleeding. Look at her. You won't
do anything her. Poor mother. Please, the mother is going
to be furious. Please the girl. The girl, tell me,
young lady, are you are you boys? Just lay down
(20:23):
on the bed just like that. We'll have to kill you.
Look at her as soon as we pull into Oakwood.
Thank you, sir. I'm sure she'll be fine, just scared.
More than anything. You've been most kind to the girl.
We truly do regret what happened to the girl. I
appreciate that, sir. Well, I suppose I should get back
(20:46):
to the colored coat. No, ma'am. Under the circumstances, we
and I speak for the railroad as well as Mr
Peters and myself, we think it would be better for
the girl if you stay with her and enjoy this
first class compartment with our compliments. Thank you, sir. Mm hmm.
(21:08):
But you see, I was just what is it? I
was just trying to find some food for the child
when the incident occurred. She hadn't had a bite to
eat all day. Oh well, I'll speak to the porter
and have a bowl of souper, two bowls of soup
(21:29):
brought to you to your compartment. Mm hmm. Is that
a bowl of soup will hardly compensate her for the
cunt on her head? Beg your pardon. It's a miracle
she's even alive. I heard someone say the stair guard
had been left open. That's quite impossible. Nevertheless, I shall
(21:52):
have to tell all this to her father. The Senator
will be very unhappy about it. As I said, we
all feel terrible about what happened, and I'm sure I
could get the necessary authorization to offer a small, yes,
financial compensation for her suffering. That's most generous of you.
(22:15):
Tell me how much does a cut on the head
cell for these days? How much are you asking? Make
us an offer? I'll I'll see to it now, eyes open,
(22:37):
mouth shut, I understand. Have something to eat, then get
some rest. Once we get to Steal City, will begin
(23:05):
the ocean. This is Still City. Five minutes in Still City,
it is to enlist there. There are your backs over there,
get them in death the Northbound Arrowhead Express, but a
part in exactly eleven. We've sent our sons to defend
freedom and liberty. What are you looking for? Arms were
(23:31):
at the station? No, child, we won't be seeing your
father just uilt. There are some things we need to
take care of first. Hurry up, now, do your share
to defeat the tyrants, liberty, war bonds. Hyah, Okay, we're
(24:11):
just up here, and watch your step. Now. Is this
where my father lives? This is where you're living for
now until we can meet your father. Yeah, m hm, oh,
(24:34):
drop your bags in the corner. I made up a
palette for you on the floor. There's a commode outside
at the end of the hall, and cold water here
in the tap. Why are you looking like that? Oh
you were expecting something more. It ain't the ritz, honey.
But oh the banner. I hung it there so you
(24:58):
could have some privacy behind in it. Who's the woman
whose space is painted on the canvas you can read?
Called herself Davina hypnotist, mentalist, mesmerist. It is illegal to
tell fortunes, but yes, you might call her that. You'll
(25:23):
find out soon enough. But right now it's time for
me to smoke my pipe and for you to stop
asking questions. I'll be going out for a few hours
in the morning, but i'll be back early. Clean the
room while i'm gone, yes, ma'am. And if anybody knocks
(25:45):
on the door, don't let them in. Don't let nobody in. Um.
What is it? Child? What should I call you? I mean,
how should I address you? You call me Rose? Rose,
(26:06):
That's all you need to know, Yes, ma'am. The less
you know about me, the better. I must now replace
my blind hold as my vision begins to fade, your
(26:30):
own senses will gradually return, Return to the warmth in
the light of your own reality. The Seventh Daughter is
a production of I Heart Radio, written and directed by
Brett Wood, recorded and mixed by Rob Gal, featuring Minca
(26:55):
Wilkes as Rose and Elizabeth Hunter as Pearl. There you
may now open your eyes
