347: Viking Legends: Fool Me Once

The story of Ketil Trout is about growing up and learning to be your own person. It's a coming-of-age tale with giant fights, dragon slaying, and outlaw who know way to many trout facts.

The creature, Nure-onna, is that woman down by the beach who is not-so-secretly also a quarter-mile-long snake.
