A completely new version of the Mulan legend, sourced from a story from the late middle ages, so even if you think you know the Mulan story, this version has twists and turns that make her big secret, that she's a woman pretending to be a man, the least of her worries.
The creature is the Manticore! It's terrifying, but not for the reasons that it should be terrifying!
The episode post (and horrifying pictures of the Manticore): https://myths.link/194
