Typhlotic

Those that clean up after echoes, not psychopomps that escort but predators that hunt and devour.

More of a category than anything and a typhlotic entity can take on an astonishing variety of forms and approaches. Common wildlife in the Ruins. <ref>Eyeless, which made Lucy think of the wildlife of the Ruins, but little else jibed with that. - Excerpt from Crossed with Silver 19.2</ref>

There is of course other wildlife in the ruins but those are not explicitly Typhlotic but may be somewhere higher or lower on the same food chain.

Known examples

• Puppet Maker<ref>Off in the distance, an eyeless thing, pale, humanoid, and as tall as a one-storey house, snatched up an echo. It held carved wood in the other hand, and pressed echo to wood. To a carved head and torso. Once the echo’s head and torso were stuck inside, it began attaching a multi-jointed arm.

• Hunters of the Girl by Candlelight<ref>The dark, eyeless shape slipped out through a gap in the half-circle of candles. It was one of the older, stronger, slower ones. It could reach out and it could find things in the dark that reflected Cole and Bailey. Neither of them were physical. They’d left bodies behind to come here, voluntarily for Cole and involuntarily for Bailey. Their shapes being what they were let this thing snatch at the edges of them. Gathering up the half-formed images and almost forgotten moments.

  Dark things loomed, too.  The stalking predators who waited for her to dim and die a little so they could have their meals.  Oblivion things, faceless or eyeless or both.  They yawned large in frame or in maw, wanting her in a very different way than that hole in the ground had wanted things.- Excerpt from One After another 10.z</ref>
