	PASSAGE OF DARKNESS
		Narcisse had profited at the expense of his community, and in all likelihood-according to the opinion of his eldest sister, Angelina - it was one of the aggrieved members of that community, probably a mistress, who sold him to the bokor.
		After all, had Narcisse been in right, and had he been zombified by his adversary without the support of the community, it is difficult to imagine that the brother would have been tolerated in that community for close to twenty years afterward.
		It is probable that, at the time of his demise, Clairvius Narcisse had support from neither his immediate society nor his kin; his closest relatives may have been his greatest enemies.

		It was clear to then that Clairvius Narcisse had been a member of the living dead—a zombie.
