AMD GOD GAVE THE BEAST-KINGS GIFTS THAT THEY MIGHT SHARE WITH THEIR PEOPLE:
To the Wolf, god gave ripping teeth, and the Law of the Pack.
To the Bear, god gave crushing jaws, and terrible strength
To the Falcon, god gave slicing talons, and great sight
And to the Shrimp, god gave the concussive plasma cannon.

Fata Morgana
a superior mirage caused by warm air resting on patches of colder air in an atmospheric duct that acts like a refracting lens. Objects on the horizon could appear to be mirrored, distorted, or float. This form of mirage could be the reason for the Flying Dutchman Legend.
