he knows this ship, the dread of the godly:
I am called the Flying Dutchman"

@INeveenBadr Ammut wants to be your sacred animal, too?

You are a minor deity. Show us what you personify, your temple, sacred animal and your cult object

She took me to her Elfin grot,
And there she wept and sighed full sore,
And there I shut her wild wild eyes
With kisses four.

Pale warriors, death-pale were they all;
They cried—‘La Belle Dame sans Merci
Thee hath in thrall!’
