The story from Azorean folklore about a sorcerer who turned his life around. He became a priest, helped his people flee, and then faced a choice when his old life came hunting for him.
The creature is a dirty dish towel named the Shirouneri. Like most towels it's actively trying to show you just how much it hates you.
