Bonus trivia I found out this weekend:
Sedna (ie "Prison of Sedna") is from Inuit mythology.
Loosely retold: She was drowned by her suitors for choosing an animal as her mate instead of a human, and now she sits at the bottom of the sea, with the sins of mankind collecting in her hair. She had her fingers cut off while trying to hold onto the boat, so shamans have to go underwater (spirit trance style) and comb her hair or else the sea won't have its bounty of huntable animals. |
