Gods of Egypt Early Wyrm 1
| Хэй, бэйби, что за тема? Эх… Ра опять нужна моя помощь на солнечной барке. Ты не мог бы пока посмотреть за моими кошками? | Не волнуйся, Котёнок. Гор сказал – Гор сделал. /ползёт/ | Вот оно как, похоже, сегодня ранний червь ловит птичку! Ха-ха-ха! (Как же я жгу!) Заткнись! /душит/ |
In ancient times, dragons were depicted not like modern dragons, but as massive and powerful serpents that could create rivers with their movement and swallow the sun.
The word for dragon in Germanic mythology and its descendants is worm (Old English: wyrm, Old High German: wurm, Old Norse: ormr), meaning snake or serpent. In Old English wyrm means “serpent”
Yeah, this pun is too clever for its own good.
Also, I guess I should note that the solar barge is what Ra the all powerful sun god uses to transport the sun across the sky every day. He usually enlists the help of several gods to help him do it safely.
