Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, is dead. For real. He was eaten by a lion and is gone for good because we can all trust Pigsy because he's so honest and not looking for a reason to cut and run. The creature is Ugallu, a demon from Babylonian mythology, who might be your hero. --- Our new Discord server! https://discord.gg/eX8hBWqm5H Updates for Myths …

Two stories from Japan about the stories we tell one another. On the first, it's a not-so-famous musician who gets a massive new audience for the legend he has been telling. For the second, it's a man who needs to do his duty...which means doing something terrible to someone he loves. The creature is to Totoima, a boar with a stomach ache...from de…

The story of the laidly worm is all about the costs and benefits of kissing dragons on the mouth. The creature is Topielec, and it might just make or break your video game franchise and/or book.

The first part of the story of Bard, a medieval Icelandic dad who goes full Batman. The creature is Stallo. It's made of turf and magic, but it takes half your remaining life as soon as it's born, so it's kind of like a real human child in that way.
