Supplementary Information

The title is a quotation from 'The Wendigo' by Algernon Blackwood:

"Oh! oh! This fiery height! Oh, my feet of fire! My burning feet of fire...!" ran in far, beseeching accents of indescribable appeal this voice of anguish down the sky. Once it called - then silence through all the listening wilderness of trees.
