This was originally meant to go to the list. Sorry.

Sorry it's taken so long to get back to you.

Progeny
By Jeffrey Vasquez
 Agni, a small red eyed woman smiled intensely.  Flames burned
where her teeth should have been.  A whip of white flames appeared in

her

hands, which she snapped at the body igniting it.  Within moments the
corpse was nothing more than grey ashes floating on a fetid wind.

Problem.  Agni was male.  Of course, if you want to say this is a female

demon, your perogative.  Though, any Hindu on the list might be a mite
peeved that your saying their gods were actually demons.

Thanks for pointing this out.  I am aware of Agni's traditional role, and
purposefully changed it.  I hope that this doesn't offend anyone; the
purpose was in fact to show how the Rhakshasa pervert that which is good.
If I have offended anyone, please know that it was not my intent.  I do

not

prescribe to imply that Hindu deities are demons, nor do I seek to

denounce

another's religion.

The Rhakshasa are typically destroyers in the confines of the Mythology

that

I have studied.  As such I see them as not only destroyers of the
physical/material, but the spiritual as well.

Thanks for the C&C.
