Description

The story of a storyteller who can't think of a story to tell, and how a stranger solves that problem by getting him fired and taking him on wacky adventures with too many beheadings.



The creature is the Lou Carcolh. Brace yourself, snail links are coming.



Snails:



I don't know if this is a good price for snails: https://myths.link/snails

Here's one eating a strawberry. I hate this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhXJxUgY46Q



Snail eating spaghetti. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iw-D9cdGAjo
