415: Aesop's Fables: Bray it Ain't So

🫏One little rent-a-donkey, one big journey🫏Actually he's a full-grown rental donkey but the journey is a big one because, when you're a poorly treated rental donkey and you have a chance to escape, you take it. Then, spend the rest of the time trying to get back to captivity because the world is dangerous and scary.

😈 The Creature: Eikthymir

The giant stag from Norse myth that makes it rain...rain. He's not as cool as his friend, who has alcohol constantly flowing out of her udders.
