About This Chapter
"The wicked image" is a metaphor for the end of the world as we know it. In this passage, we are told that every ninety years, twelve gods return to life as young people. This year, it is the same as every other year, except that this year is without light. This is because an angel named Anansi chose another name for himself. Now, Anansi is dead, and he and his companions are planning a feast to celebrate his death. Anansi says that he wants to choke Anansi, but that he has allowed himself to feel that he will soon feel nothing. He tells the audience that he knows that there is no love in the world, and that the only thing that matters is death. He says that if he had time to prepare, he would have prepared a feast, but he doesn't have enough time to do so. He also says that his sister, Morrigan, has suffered her share of flirtations with the angel, and now that she has ascended to the position of lucifer, her love for him is gone. He wonders if he could have prevented the death of his sister. But he can't tell where love began with his sister; he feels for her, but cannot tell where hate began with her. He thinks that it would be better if they could escape.
