Summary
The story of Half's Heroes, from the Icelandic Sagas. If you don't like being burned alive...and also do absolutely nothing to avoid the completely avoidable fate of being burned alive...can you even call yourself a man?
The creature this week is the Ubigabi (姥ヶ火), the flaming head that's barreling toward you in the night.
