In this episode of Mythlok, host Nitten Nair unearths the incredible legend of Ugallu, the fearsome yet protective weather demon of ancient Mesopotamia. With the body of a lion, wings of an eagle, and the heart of a divine guardian, Ugallu stood at the threshold between order and chaos. Discover how this terrifying beast became a symbol of protection, how he was invoked in rituals to fight darkness, and how his legacy still echoes in modern culture. Was he a monster… or the ultimate ally?

Join us as we explore ancient carvings, forgotten prayers, and thought-provoking questions about power, protection, and the mythical beings we still need today.
