[HQ Ignorance] Re : Scene 20: Giving the Dog a Bone

[Lev Lafayette]

One other thing I should point out to you all is that
the myth says the trollkin died. Now, as you've
figured this can be a metaphorical death... But I
haven't heard nary a word from each of the "fake
trollkin" on what part of them will "die" in this
reconstruction of the myth..

Just sayin'... ;-)
