Memory:Harpy

With the body and wings of a vulture, and the young yet hideous torso and head of a woman, you know this to be a creature of evil. Emitting a melodious song that does not seem to fit the features, the harpy draws near enough that you can see the necklace of bones around its neck, obviously unfortunate souls who let their guard slip for an instant -- all it took for this hideous mistake of nature to do what it does best, kill. Legend has it that a harpy's corpse has strange powers on the voice of one who eats it. Strange, that: someone just screamed abuse at you, but no-one with a voice is around, only a large dirty vulture. Such birds cannot possibly speak ... unless they have a woman's head, like this one.
