Charon was the dude in Greek mythology that transported souls across the River Styx, right? And you had to pay him a coin in order for him to do that (according to legend). That's why ancient Greeks were sometimes buried with coins - so they’d have something to give him for their journey. That’s what I thought your username was referencing haha.

Wow that totally went over my head haha I was focused on the coyote part. Yes about the Greek mythology part. Always thought it was a cool myth about a soul’s last journey :-)
