Description

"Uncle Just" is the name given to the god by Faulkner's Father, who confuses the being for the person who raised him (Uncle Just), who is now passed on.

But it’s not Uncle Just, it’s not human. It doesn’t look human. I don’t know if it’s a god of death of terror, or, or, something else, something raised by his own damn memories and his forgetting, but it’s here, and it’s after our dad. - Faulkner

The god's arrival coincides with strong winds, and it lurks in the trees. It screams an inhuman scream, which also sounds similar to the howling of the wind.

Notable Events

• "Uncle Just" haunts Faulkner's Father, who has dementia and relives his traumatic childhood.
