Pan has haunted the Arcadian wilds since before the songs, piping, chasing nymphs, and napping at noon (wake him and face the panic). His shout routed armies; his music tamed them.
He pipes still, in the deep woods where the cities' noise doesn't reach. Hikers report music with no source; the rangers have stopped investigating.
The wild places shrink, and Pan shrinks with them — or concentrates. The last great forest will have the loudest pipes.

Gods of the small hours: rivers, winds, dreams, and thresholds. They were old before the Olympians had names.
