Talk:Atrophos/@comment-32696213-20180622003003

Hello, I'm the author of the story again. Sorry for not updating this in a while, but I did recieve a few comments (not only on the site) about the story. I'd like to explain a bit about this- it wasn't meant to be immensely horrific, more a peculiar encounter with a being of legend.

The Three Fates were a major group in Greek mythos- and each of them had a role to play in fate. One spun it (creating a human's life), one measured it (deciding how long a human's life would be), and one, Atrophos, would cut it (thus ending the human's life). This old woman happens to be the modern-day incarnation of Atrophos. Would that help to have the story make a bit more sense?
