321A-Viking Legends: Mostly Harmless

320B-Popol Vuh: The Boys
The conclusion of the Popol Vuh and the hero twins of Mayan mythology.
320A-Popol Vuh: Origin Story
In the beginning, the gods apparently had an undo button. And angry tortilla griddles that took out the first humans. Today, it's the beginning of the beginning in the Popol Vuh.
319-Indian folklore: Tricks and Illusions
Subramanya has learned something terrible about two people who are practically siblings to him. Can he use his deep wisdom to beat the life that's laid out before them?
318-Greek Mythology: Sad Lad
This week, it's all about Hephaestus and his journey of self discovery where he (hopefully) doesn't fall off a mountain. Again.
317-Monkey King: Make it Rain
We're back in the story of the Monkey King, and monkey finds a noble new calling: freeing enslaved monks. Does this noble calling include the ignoble murdering of his enemies and/or tricking them into drinking his urine? Yes. Yes it does.
