Lar..?

Question Author

Again to the rescue Lie in King

Thank you.

Meh!

...and the definition is???

Best I came up with beyond the two pieces of wordplay giving 'Lar' was a bit convoluted, then I gave up caring - 

"The lemures were shades or spirits of the restless or malignant dead in Roman religion, sometimes used interchangeably with the term larvae (from Latin larva, 'mask')...

...Ovid interprets them as vagrant, unsatiated and potentially vengeful...ancestral gods or spirits of the underworld..."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemures

I'm very surprised that a clue so clearly faulty got past the editor - two partial wordplays, both fit for purpose, but sadly no definition.
