A man in drab grey clothes approached the building from the mists. He was carrying a signpost that was made of dark twisted wood, but topped with a shiny arrow of brass.
He set down the signpost and adjusted the arrow so that it would point north. |

There was a faint scrabbling sound by the grey man's feet, and a pair of skeletal forepaws thrust themselves out of the ground. After a brief struggle, they were followed by the rest of the skeleton of a large, but very dead, dog.
The animal sat on its bony haunches, and cocked its skull upwards in an inquisitive manner. After observing the traveller briefly, it bent its head round and gently pulled out one of its rear femurs. Gripping the bone lengthways in its skeletal jaws and looking straight at the visitor, it began to whine hopefully. |

The man in grey appeared unsurprised by the new arrival.
He reached down and took the bone from the mouth of the dog and tossed it into the distance.
As the dog loped off awkwardly, the man looked thoughtful. He turned back to the signpost and adjusted it so that the arrow pointed west instead. |
