Summary
Lord Moreau is a mysterious figure. The village people whisper about them in secret so that Mother Miranda might not hear them utter the name of her least favourite disciple. Apparently, they are unspeakably ugly, huge like a troll, and give off a smell so strong and foul that you'd know of their approach a mile away. Allegedly, they killed Salvatore, the fisherman, and stole his inheritance.
Even so, Lord Moreau is the one and only lord residing in the area that does not take, only gives. No employees of theirs go missing for they have none. They provide electricity for the whole village. The kids that rebel and swim in the reservoir on hot summer days return frightened but not gored, and during cold, harsh winters fish might appear in the market for those who need it.
It is a cold reality for the people of the village that scary things are holy. The disturbing nature of Mother Miranda herself, the creatures in the woods that are both her sacred creation and their damnation. The lords that thin the herd like they're nothing but sheep, revered and esteemed. Fear is an act of worship, prayer in the name of death an act of God herself.
If Mother Miranda is their deity; Lord Moreau is their saint.
