Tamazuki: Do you know how an inugami is created?

Box: An inugami... is a type of curse.
Box: You bury a dog up to its neck in the ground.
Box: Keep it alive until it's on the verge of starvation... and then place food in front of it, just out of reach.

Box: When the dog, trying to eat the food, stretches out its neck
Box: You chop off its head with a sword, and worship it.

Box: Those separated black feelings of unfathomable resentment and appetite
Box: Become the power to curse people to death—
Box: That is... an "Inugami".

Tamazuki: In actuality, this was apparently was practiced long ago in order to kill people through curses.
Tamazuki: It seems that during the political struggles of the Heian period, there were many influential people who could cause mysterious deaths.

Tamazuki: You're thinking the inugami has nothing to do with this, right?
Tamazuki: Those "practitioners" are his ancestors, you see.

Box: This technique... if it fails, it comes back on the practitioner a hundredfold—
Box: The unsuccessful practitioner falls under the curse.

Text: The inugami users
Text: Became possessed by the inugami.
