I always thought Oni or Ogre Mages werejust a thing of legend. Something my parents told me about to make sure I did my chores or went to bed on time. But when I came face to face with one of these fearsome boogeymen myself, it was if I were a frightened child. In the distance, I swore I heard child like voices singing.
 

“LOCK THE DOOR, BLOW OUT THE LIGHT; THE HUNGRY ONI HAUNTS THE NIGHT.

HIDE AND TREMBLE, LITTLE ONE; THE ONI WANTS TO HAVE SOME FUN.

HEAR IT SCRATCHING ON THEDOOR; SEE ITS SHADOW CROSS THE FLOOR.

THE SUN WON’T RISE FOR A WHILE; TILL THEN, BEWARE THE ONI’S SMILE.”
