Sounds kinda.. morbid? But then again, most old stories/myths/fairy tales are quite morbid regardless of the culture.

Leave my fox wifey alone




But yea, in China, calling a woman a hu-li-jing is (fox spirit) a directly insult. It directly call her a home wrecker.

When I said Morbid, I was meaning the part where she dies... which wouldn't surprise me if it was because she was chased away or something or left to die.

Oh, and I have zero problems with fox-wifes. :P

I am a devoted servant of my Lady Horo afterall.

It'd be kinda cool if they were real, would make the world a little more interesting then the dull place it is these days if these were some truth to the supernatural.

Edit: But then again with the world is these days with information and experiences, even the supernatural would eventually become mundane. That jeweller on the corner, owned and run by a dwarf clan. The girl you're crushing on at school, her mother has nine tails. The environmental lobby groups new leader, is a nice old fellow named Treebeard.

Forgive the rambling of an old man, for getting off topic.

Please do not start threads just to ask a random question; we happen to have a sticky thread for that. If you want to start a discussion with a question, at least make certain that there's something to discuss in the first place.
