Description

Legends of a great whale that roams the skies have been passed down from generation to generation the world over. Bismarck, the white whale worshipped by the Vanu Vanu and said to dwell amongst Abalathia's clouds, is merely the best-known example.
Perchance such tales originated solely in the mind—ancient peoples shuddering at the sight of a vast wavekin, and imagining what horrors would reign should one take to the skies. Or perhaps, in the distant past, a creature akin to the mythic Lord of the Mists truly did inhabit the clouds...
I believe it so—yet I need proof. My research indicates that the ancient creature would most closely resemble the south sea isles' legendary "Shockmaw," but even if I am wrong...I must know.

Lore

Legends of a great whale that roams the skies have been passed down from generation to generation the world over. Bismarck, the white whale worshipped by the Vanu Vanu and said to dwell amongst Abalathia's clouds, is merely the best-known example. Did such tales originate solely in the realm of imagination—ancient peoples shuddering at the sight of a vast wavekin and imagining what horrors would reign should one take to the skies? Or did, in the distant past, creatures such as the south sea isles' legendary Shockmaw truly exist? Inquiring minds—that of scholar of comparative mythology Basildere in particular—need to know.
