This figure is visited by a woman who counts her heartbeats and runs out of numbers to count with, as well as an insomniac who is disturbed by the noise of the stars. He has a strong sailor's voice, and a neighbor suggests that he should be fed mothballs, though his popularity is dwarfed by a woman who turns into a tarantula after sneaking out to a dance. It is suggested that he should be named "mayor of the world" and promoted to five-star general, but his inability to speak Latin concerns Father Gonzaga, as many people also consider him an angel. He is forced to stay in a chicken coop, but is carried away by a gust of wind at the end of the namesake work. For 10 points, identify this character, an aged avian-like creature who visits Pelayo's house, and names a short story by Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
