Zokk and Maftra, the Dog-Gods of Therea dwell in the peaceful Therea dimension. Worshipped by Korrek the barbarian and other Kathartans, the Dog-Gods appear to human eyes to be giant dogs. They were seen with their caretakers, who appeared to be an elderly man and woman. Are the Caretakers other gods in their own right? Are they angels? Or are the Caretakers simply a separately manifest aspect of the Dog-Gods themselves?
