The Ontagonist in a Crone Story

Cronarks can be wildly fantastic adventures, but they are often just quiet stories of internal contemplation. In a crone story, that external antagonist is the death blight. The tempter may or may not be personified. If he or she is represented by an actual character, this character is often one of the most literal presentations of the pontagonist. You can think of the ontagonist as sort of a negative mentor.
