This is what I expected as soon as I heard the apes described. And really, Tiglari wasn't pursuing a woman he loved, but a prize he wanted to acquire, so I can't be that sad for him. Since he has his human head, he can now warn off any future questers. If he chooses to, that is; Tiglari doesn't strike me as the most altruistic of people. Trope inversion would have been that Maal Dweb was a woman, and her entire harem consisted of smart and creative women with no desire to become wives and mothers, and were perfectly happy as scholars, artists, or inventers. LGBT+ themes optional. The men who pursued them would have been judged on a case-by-case basis, joining them in the world's most exclusive university if they'd truly loved them and wanted to rescue them, but turned into apes if they were entitled stalkers who were planning to demand sex and/or marriage in exchange for "rescuing" them.
Great story
Excellent narration or the great C.A.S..♥️
A C.A.S. story about a hero going in search of his love who has been kidnapped by an evil being? Yeah, this is going to end badly.
this is terrifying and just wtf
He is just a misunderstood artist😅
And this is how furries are made.

Because that’s what good cosmic horror really needs: a tidy moral bludgeon.
It was the 20s/30s you chode.

Also it’s funny that they just suggested it be a totally different story. Like I’d prefer X-files if it was a romcom with two men and no monsters.
