Comment: << review queue entry 69796 - submitted by 'richwarm' >>
Problems with current def:
- no reason for capital T ("Two deities")
- not necessarily chained at the ankle, as far as I can tell, and in any case, it's not a particularly significant detail for this definition
- "one short, one tall" -- probably not necessary to mention
- no mention of escorting spirits of the dead
