Hey folks, Aaron here. Welcome to another edition of Deeper Lour, a bonus episode that is built to serve as a topical guide to the most recent episode of lore.

In this short bonus episode, I'm going to dig into our archive of over 11 years of topics and point out some of the old episodes that might fit well with this week's newest.

This classic lore is about a community who becomes united around a very bizarre event

and how human nature drove them to handle it in a deeply tragic way. Come for my butchering of the

French language, but stay for the incredible story. Next, download episode 102, Devil in the
