Djinn 2: Ghul

The prophet spake do not linger where the djinns reside or you will risk drawing their ire. Avoid public places, especially graveyards. Archaeological digs are off limits. And stay out of the deserts.
Here's the djinn what that visited today. It came borne on desert winds. It's a ghul and it feeds on the dead. Being alive myself, relatively speaking, it passed me by, but gave me a look that seemed to say just wait. Then it shape-shifted into a jackal, as ghuls are wont to do, and made for the cemetery. I went back to my tax forms.
