The Books of Thoth

What if Buddhism, rather than Christianity, had become the dominant religion of Europe? Let’s us explore a folktale from such a world. A world where Buddhist temples in Scandinavia and Frankland also host images of gods such as Thor, Odin, and even Loki. We shall hear the story of a monk called Ketil, and how he helped spread Buddhism to Northern Europe. But more than that, he also drew the attention of the gods of Asgard themselves.
