Caveat: Issitoq

Issitoq is an Inuit deity of surveillance and stern warnings. He is a giant eye that makes sure you don't break the rules, like some kind of proto-[broken link! FIXME] Foucauldian [broken link! FIXME] panopticon-creature.

I was thinking about Issitoq as I drifted to sleep, night before last. And so I had a short but vivid dream about Issitoq. It wasn't really scary, but it was eerie. He was zooming down out of a stormy, sunsetty sky over a strangely colorful but desolate plain, like some kind of disneyfied Sauron.

I drew this picture yesterday, based on that dream.
