Lycaeon
We find ourselves in the role of a traveler who is taken on a tour of his inner monster with the goal of destroying it. The character of the monster (werewolf) is based primarily on the idea of autoimmune diseases, in which the body destroys itself. The patient becomes someone else and feels frustrated by whom or what he is forced to fight. Hope for life rests in self-acceptance.
