Meatus

A feral god summoned by the Gate: a walking penis who wraps himself around Eris, is caught in Donut's ball, and dies under the Astral Paw crying 'Daddy, help me! I just wanted to sing!' Harpocrates's, it turns out.

Arc

Two beings with one name: a gremlin who stole Harpocrates's 'dink', sewed it on and became a feral god — the member scales to a god's size, is sapient, loud, and loves music (ch. 60). 'I AM FREE, AND YOU CAN’T MAKE ME GO BACK!' (ch. 60); he wraps himself round Eris and is balled up with her, the base end hanging out like the ball forgot to zip up (ch. 66); a flail, then a mace, in his father's hands (ch. 72, ch. 73); 'Daddy, help me!' 'I just wanted to sing!' under the Astral Paw (ch. 76). 'slap-chopped all over the realm' (ch. 77).
