WADY 9: Exploring Dragons Across Cultures & Time

Welcome to Episode 9 of We Aren't Dead Yet, a podcast throwing magic missiles into the ttrpg, gamer and speculative fiction sphere and seeing whether we come out alive at the end.

Today's episode... Exploring Dragons Across Cultures & Time!

In this episode, we embark on a mythical journey through the fascinating world of dragons. We start by unraveling the origins and diverse cultural interpretations of dragons, exploring these majestic creatures from the chaos dragons of ancient Egypt to the celestial Lung of Chinese mythology, the cosmic struggles of Tiamat, and the Nordic prophecy of Jormungandr. Transitioning to modern depictions, we witness the evolution of dragons in literature, gaming, and film. From the fearsome beasts of Dungeons & Dragons to the lovable companions of How to Train Your Dragon, dragons have captivated audiences with their power, mystery, and charm.

We’ll see you next week for the first episode of our One Shot series!
