447: Medieval Knights: Bevis and Butting Heads

🐴So, your step-dad is an evil emperor who's trying to murder you.

Bevis of Southampton has had a difficult life. His dad went to the pharmacy (the woods) and never came back (because he was murdered by 10,000 soldiers), he was sold into slavery, and apparently can't go ten minutes without fighting a giant. But, throughout it all, we learn that no matter how difficult life gets... it can still throw a dragon fight your way too, so watch out.

😈 The Creature: Zankallala

If there was ever a bite-sized creature you'd want to eat less than the Zankallala, I don't want to meet it.
