The marketing people agreed I could have a definite article. So make a note in your diaries, people: Kekropia is now officially titled The Virtu, and shall be referred to as such from here on out.

I don't understand the marketing people, but you know what? They gave me a beautiful beautiful beautiful cover and jacket copy that was so much better than I was expecting and, well, if their augury by Dhole bone dice and coins of Dylath-Leen, cast thrice while breathing the incense of the trees that grow on the far side of the moon, tell them virtu is a beter word than kekropia ... I'm not going to argue. I got my definite article. I'm happy.

(And, yes, I am reading The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath. How could you tell?)

Oh, I was charmed by Derleth and his earnest, earnest fanboying. It's just that that did not in any way mitigate the fact that his stuff is utter crap. *g*

And thank you for caliginous. It's a beautiful word.
