Old Hag Robesnatch
The Robe-Stripping Hag
Leave everything you're wearing, and be on your way.
By Katsuki Mitsumori
The sin, and life in hell
The hag who waits on the bank of the river of the dead and strips the clothes from all who cross. She weighs a soul's earthly sins by the heft of the robes she peels off. Every time a person mutters 'I got cheated' or 'they took it from me,' the dregs settle here. The hoarded dregs of resentment, they say, one day crystallize at the bottom of the world.
Relationships with other wraiths
She is wedded to [Elder Robehanger], who hangs the stripped robes on the branches. The final destination of all those hoarded dregs of resentment is said to be a 'king of grudges' out in the living world.
Living with this kind of unforgivable
Old Hag Robesnatch is a shape given to the everyday "money" frustration of someone you couldn't forgive. You don't have to force yourself to forgive, and you don't have to let it fester either. The moment the feeling rises, give it an alias, write down what was done, and file it away. Yurusen is a completely private place to do exactly that — a quiet catharsis, never a call to harm anyone.
