374: European Fairy Tales: Mermaider (part 2 of 2)

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.
