Excellent Point on Unreliable Narrator

[Jed Kelestron]

It would be nice, for the more genteel among us, were the judge
inhuman, but he is quite human. A frightening blend of intellect and
madness. Judge figures have played a huge role in thickening the plot
we're dwelling in. Like Ahab amid the flames, the Judge is all too
human, and the gooseflesh he induces evokes the madness and
destructiveness in us all.
