[NPPF] Canto Four: Versipellis

[s~Z]

"We have seen that the original werewolf, howling in the wintry blast, is a
kind of psychopomp, or leader of departed souls; he is the wild ancestor of
the death-dog, whose voice under the window of a sick-chamber is even now a
sound of ill-omen."

     --also from "Werewolves and Swan-maidens" by John Fiske

"There is always a psychopompos around the corner, isn't there?
