A little something in honor of the season. This story was originally published in Thurston Howl's horror anthology "Seven Deadly Sins", it wasn't intended to be a part of the Para-Imperium universe at first but I decided to revisit the character for Purrgatorio and decided it took place on an Outworld with an unaddressed ghul infestation (see "Transhumanism"). Check those books out at their Storenvy page ( http://boundtales.storenvy.com/ )or Bad Dog Books ( https://baddogbooks.com/product-cat/publishers/thurston-howl-publications/ ). If you enjoyed this story and are interested in writing yourself, I'm compiling an anthology of my own called "The Vore Studio", see the journal I posted on FurAffinity for details ( https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/9566662 ) For more about the Para-Imperium setting, please check out https://paraimperium.wordpress.com/ If you'd like to contribute to keeping this thing going, and get stories and podcasts before anyone else, consider becoming a patron at https://www.patreon.com/Zarpaulus --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
