The cowled figure is confronted by the substance of his own being. All the demonic beings arise from the cloth of his own robe and a haggard version of his own face resides on the left. The question of his nature: monk or monkey, will be answered by his ability to discern the self-created nature of the objects of his fear. I did this one on a North Sea oil rig during a huge storm.
