"Don't look into the well, captain. The thing inside looks back."
"Mists spiral around the well's abysmal plunge. The movements induce intense nausea. A green-faced stoker rushes from your presence."[1]
Well of the Wolf is a large sky-well located in the region of Albion. Its population consists mostly of unusually disheveled devils.[2]
The Bandstand
The main point of interest around the Well is the congregation of rag-wearing, silent devils who live in a system of hexagonal caves located at the rim of the Well.[3][4] The devils that come to the Well "retire" by allowing giant chorister bees to enter their chest cavities through their mouths.[5]
The disheveled devils regularly convene at a dilapidated bandstand, where they honor the entity trapped inside the Well by dancing Correspondence sigils and letting the chorister bees make use of their exceptional singing skills.[6][7][8]
The Ur-Devil
The King of Carols, also known as the Many-Mouthed and the Choir-in-One,[9] is a primeval devil of great influence,[10][11] who protested long ago against the rule of the Judgements by refusing to use his many beautiful singing voices.[12] The Judgements in retaliation hung the King of Carols above the Well of the Wolf as a warning to anyone trying to oppose them.[13] As a final act of defiance, the King of Carols gave away all but one of his voices to his creations, the chorister bees.[14][15] For this he was forever imprisoned inside the Well, and the devils attempted rebellion against the Judgements, with the King of Carols as a martyr for their cause.[16][17]
