"TwoPound" by Blue Dot Sessions

Undine the water elemental has a soul. And an evil uncle. And a friend who is in love with her husband. And about a thousand family members who want to see that everything works out for her. Her story, and that of Sir Huldbrand's, is far from over.

The creature is Sore-Gus, who's actually pretty sore. Because he's missing both a chunk of meat from his side.

The story of Undine, by Friedrich de la Motte Fouqué, is a direct precursor to Hans Christian Andersen's "The Little Mermaid" and comes inspired by the soulless elemental creatures some alchemists thought populated our world. Really they just want to marry you and are mostly nice. 

The creatures this week are the Sirena, the Boa, and more - extremely dangerous snakes who just want to drink way too much milk.
