418: French stories: Our Son, Ourson, the Bear

🐻Ourson is a Beary Good Guy🐻 Sorry, I couldn't resist, but he is actually a good guy. He isn't a bear though. He just looks like one to people who have probably never seen a bear, because he's kind of just a very hairy kid. He's like that because his mom kicked a toad that wasn't a toad and the toad cursed him. Don't worry, it'll make sense (mostly).

😈 The Creatures: Ga-Gorib

A monster who does bad by tempting people into murdering...themselves?
