EP 9 | Nixies, Old Ladies, and Frogs, oh my!
Kimmy Hammons  •  Aloreing Podcast Episode • 7/14/2021

We are shaking things up this week with our first ever fan pick episode. Both Kimmy and Ryan will be discussing the lore and legend of the mysterious shape shifting Nixie. A famous German water nymph that can be found in many classic fairy tales. Also, Nix your expectations of Kimmy’s German right now because Ryan’s mom is gonna come in and save the day. And remember, stay away from the Nixie at Millcreek and don’t go offering your first born if your wife is pregnant! We hope you enjoy this episode of Aloreing and can’t wait to see what you create.
