Monstrum: Kasagonagá--The Cute, Kind Monster We All Need Right Now
A sky deity falling from the sky sounds bad, right? Not if it’s the Kasogonagá. From the mythology of the Toba peoples of South America, this god of lightning, thunder, and rain appears as a small, hairy anteater-like creature and needs a bit of human intervention to return to the skies. Part of the "Monstrum" series.
