I am a man, and men are animals who tell stories. This is a gift from God, who spoke our species into being, but left the end of our story untold.
-Sacrament, Clive Barker
I disagree; I feel certain all animals must tell stories- because we know animals dream, and we know animals communicate, and what are stories but communicated dreams? It's just that ours is the species who writes them down. Perhaps, then, the Gods' magic resides not so much in the Words themselves, but in the letters used to Shape them...
