Boatman Toll-Gouge
The Ferryman Who Hikes the Crossing Fare
Water's running high today — surcharge, I'm afraid.
By Katsuki Mitsumori
The sin, and life in hell
A demon ferryman on the Sanzu River who jacks up the fare of his crossing to match his mood that day. Refuse, and you'll never reach the far bank. His eye for a soul's desperation is the sharpest in all of hell. He and Old Hag Robesnatch are rival merchants of the riverside.
Relationships with other wraiths
He vies with [Old Hag Robesnatch], each contesting who can wring more from those who cross.
Living with this kind of unforgivable
Boatman Toll-Gouge 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.
