The Rhapsodist

Over the course of a night, a storyteller captures bar patrons with his tale of mysterious magic and petty crime. As new customers enter the bar and the story unfolds, we dive into the imaginations of his audience to reveal unique versions of the oddball characters the rhapsodist has created.
