Every now and then the leviathan goes on a rampage, swimming along the coast destroying every vessel it finds and generally bringing trade to a crashing halt in the area, only a protective ritual known as the Tear of Nesirie calms the beast during these times causing it to shun the warded vessel, and temples of the sea-mother are generally inundated with pleas for ships to be so blessed during these dangerous times.

[top]Minions
