Music is a tad too loud, might want to keep the volume low.

Quotations are modified to fit character limits, to fit narrative context, and to taste. 

The decision to have a narrator as the artist of the piece, while not especially uncommon, is based of the first canto in Ezra Pound’s epic, “The Cantos” and also “The Beginners Guide” by Davey Wreden

ACT I music is based on the opening measure of Lagrima by Francisco Tarrega. 
The skeletal ferryman quotes T.S. Eliot’s existential poem “Little Gidding”.

Satyr is based on Pozzo from the absurdist “Waiting for Godot” by Samuel Beckett and uses his lines.

The centaur briefly quotes the opening lines of William Blake’s poem “Ah, Sunflower!” 

Steps are made by Surt at https://opengameart.org/content/classical-temple-tiles. The  roman columns I used are not from here. I can’t find the column that I re-colored. Let me know if you find it.

The dark spirit quotes Robert Pinsky’s translation of Dante’s inferno. 

The jester knight scarecrow thing quotes Sin from Milton’s Paradise Lost.
