The day at the thrift store when he purchased the jackal-headed statue that could summon the Egyptian god Anubis on command, he assumed the valuable artifact had accidentally been discarded with the picked-over remains of some elaborate estate. But as he prepared to return to the Salvation Army for the fourth time that week, he knew the statue had been donated on purpose.
“Get more beer while you’re out,” Anubis called from the couch.
“Will do,” he replied, then set out once again to look for the other statue, the one that would dismiss the Egyptian god Anubis on command.
