Mytho-historical origins:
It has been said that ancient Atlantian and Lamurian peoples worshiped creatures that where combinations of human and animal.
Further supposition has stated that not only did they worship such creatures but that theses creatures actually existed and that the ancients possessed the knowledge to transform humans into them.
Going back over it, it reads like a teaser to a larger more detailed story . . .
Would anyone be interested if I were to expand it, making it into an illustrated short story?
