EP 43 | The Veiny Sword of Ghillie Dhu
Kimmy Hammons  •  Aloreing Podcast Episode • 3/8/2023

Hey Campers, we got a delightful forest spirit from Scotland’s Highlands for this week’s episode. We will be discussing the history and famous encounter of the magical fae, Ghillie Dhu.  Both Kimmy and Ryan will discuss how Bigfoot and Ghillie Dhu are probably related, the importance of adding “love sword” to your dating profiles, and how peter pan was probably inspired by this mischievous fae. We hope you enjoy this episode of Aloreing, and remember campers if thirsty consider quenching your thirst on the sap of the Beithe, and Ghillie Dhu is the real lost boy.
