.... He does not want to leave her, but he knows he will have to. He is not a regular man, not someone who can stay in one place for long. He is a creature of the wild, a beast who cannot be tamed, and eventually he will have to return to the wilderness. But for now, he does not feel the need to leave, to go back to his solitary existence. He wants to savor this moment, to hold her in his arms for as long as possible.

"I have a place of my own ... you can always come ..."

She whispers, trying to offer something that might last. She is not a fine lady, in fact, she is quite the opposite, but he has touched her heart deeply.

he hears her words, and they stir something deep within him, a desire to hold onto this moment, onto her, forever. He grunts softly, his hand gently stroking her soft skin, considering her offer, considering what it could mean to have a place to come back to, a place where he would not be alone.

he lets her draw him into her, his large body heavy and yet gentle as he lays down on top of her. He can feel her heart beating against his chest, can feel the softness of her body beneath him, and he wants more, needs more, needs her. He nuzzles her neck, his breath hot against her skin, his hands touching her body with a gentleness and care born of a primal need to protect and a desire to posses.

"Yes, hold me. You are my lover."

he grunts softly, holding her close, his arms encircling her in a tight embrace. The word "lover" is unfamiliar to him, yet it rings true in his heart, a truth that he cannot deny. He is her lover, and she is his. He would hold her for as long as she wanted him to, his body wrapped around hers, a wordless promise.

But how about

Pigs disguised as monks?

Stained Glass - The Planet Saturn Driving Out a Monk with a Pig's Head

The Planet Saturn Driving Out a Monk with a Pig's Head, or Time Banishing Melancholy About 1530; Southern Netherlands (Belgium or France) Clear glass with painted details and yellow (silver) stain Inscribed in French, 'Melancholy' and 'Saturn'

The imagery on this roundel is quite complex and the original design source has yet to be identified. The roundel is composed of a single piece of clear glass which is painted on the front with a dark pigment and then highlighted with silver (yellow) stain on the back. This construction and the style of painting points to a glass painting workshop in the Netherlands in the early decades of the 16th century. However, the design source for this image may be French as the words for 'Saturn' and for 'Melancholy' are in French rather than in Latin.

Saturn is depicted as an elderly man wearing a classical Roman armoured uniform and carrying a scythe. Melancholy is seen here, rather humorously, as a pig dressed as a monk. Throughout the Middle Ages, monks were often the brunt of jokes and in the late 15th and early 16th centuries these jokes often manifested themselves in violent attacks against monastic properties and monks themselves.

Since the time of the Roman physician, Galen, it was believed that the human body was governed by what was known as 'humours'. There are four humours and a healthy body is one that has an equal balance of these. Disease and disability were caused by an imbalance in the humours. An overabundance of the humour 'black bile' resulted in the condition of melancholy. It was also believed that the planets had an effect on the balance of humours. Saturn was linked with the melancholic state.

Saturn was also associated with undesirable elements in human society. In the 16th century, numerous woodcuts were produced depicting 'Saturn's Children'. These children of Saturn were portrayed as agricultural labourers, criminals, the poor and the sick. Additionally, the slaughtering of pigs accompany these scenes as the pig was considered an unclean and odorous animal. The pig was also often, but not exclusively, coupled with the melancholic state.

At the time this roundel was produced, Europe was undergoing religious and political turmoils which became known as the Protestant Reformation. It is possible to see the imagery here as being 'protestant' propaganda directed against monasticism but it is not conclusive.

Hogman??? Sir???

[pigsongpearls]

TEETH: NIGHT OF THE HOGMEN is a grotesque, single-session table-top roleplaying game for 3-5 people. The players portray hapless travellers, forced to flee from a ravening horde of hogmen during one grim and grisly night in a cursed corner of 18th-century England.

There is a noise. A sort of shrieking, squealing sound, echoing through the storm. And it is getting louder.

“Hogmen!” screams the coachman, fumbling to load a flintlock pistol.

“The Hogmen are abroad!”

The game uses a simplified version of the Forged In The Dark rules to tell this troubling story of peril and unpleasantness, and, as a single-session game, is designed to be experienced as a complete one-off adventure.

GAME INFORMATION

Number of players: 3-5 (including GM)

Length: 2-4 hours

Release Date: 2021

23-page rulebook + playbooks.
