Dying? Just say no. The reaper legally cannot take your life without your consent.

And here again we see the bizarre confusion between the Caduceus and the rod of Asclepius. The one with two snakes (and wings) is traditionally representative of commerce, representing Hermès/mercury. The one for medicine traditionally has the one snake and no wings - symbol of the Greek god Asclepius, the healer.

I see this a lot in representations from the USA - is that the case here ? If so, it seems rather sadly appropriate given the state of US-American healthcare.

Hermetic magic keeps away the literal Grim Reaper while Asclepieian medicine strives to keep your body whole.

This hospital engages in necromancy.

Here we see a depiction of a member of the Flying Serpent Mage Clan terrorizing a farmer of the Bone Clan.

Anyone know where this is? It sort of looks like something you'd see on the Mayo building in Rochester, but I doubt they have death fighting a doctor.

scratch that

I just google mayo art, and the art on the side of that building was more dark iron looking material.
