Czech folklore: House of the Dragon

177A-Trojan War: Rage

“Sing, O muse, of the rage of Achilles, son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans.” We're here. The culmination of a dozen episodes and twice as many stories has led to this. Achilles. Helen. Agamemnon. Menelaus. Hector. Odysseus. There's a reason these names are still with us after thousands of years. This is the story of the Trojan War. The creature is pretty much the opposite of an epic, brutal war. It's the not-epic, not-intimidating little Tofu boy!

Japanese folklore: Sword it Out

🍜Samurai Pirates, Stabby Sumo Wrestlers, and Punchable Oni Are the consequences of Jiuyemon's actions. We all make mistakes. Too many of the samurai Jiuyemon's mistakes involved killing people with a sword while drunk, though. While the heat dies down, he needs to start a new life in exile. As a toothpaste salesman. 😈 The Creature: KappaFamous for being cute and giving boat rides in Animal Crossing! Don't ask about what he used to get up to before he was a kawaii manga star, though!

Finnish folklore: Worn Out

✏️Osmo is a pretty solid sketch artist✏️ He’s not drawing a criminal, though. He’s drawing his sister, whose only crime is stealing the prince’s heart. And also maybe trying to escape the prison of the sea king, but that comes later. 😈 The Creature: The JuruaJust when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, there’s the jurua who is taking their family out to a nice dinner…of your flesh.
