236-French Fairy Tale: Piece of Cake

236-French Fairy Tale: Piece of Cake

This week, we're in French fairy tales with queen who prepared her daughter for the world a little too well, and to the queen's despair she doesn't want to marry, choosing to rely instead on her own strength and judgement. Oh, and also there are griffin fights, dragons, sphinxes, giant turkey chariots, evil fairies, and cat-riding mythological dwarves. It's a big week.

The creature is a toad full of hate. And also full of rainbow breath.
