S6E37 – The Gold Hoard of the Great Ants

The Gold Hoard of the Great Ants

Alasdair bedazzles James with tales of gold-digging ants. Did we mention these creatures were also massive? And deadly? Well, they were! Beginning with an Old English legend from Hana Videen’s bestiary The Deorhord, the Loreboys travel into a world of dubious manuscripts and outlandish beasts.

Lock up your camels!
