The Kraaken spotted again!!!

King's Port Advertiser, Special Add-on

New Terra’s most reliable source for news, shipping and otherwise.

May 617. VOL 2, Special Add-on

What is this we hear?  As we, the staff of the renowned KPA, settled into our new office on the Isla de la Many Names, we could faintly perceive in the distance the Eslandolans' puny settlement.  Of course, that was hardly of interest, but what was greatly so were the highly wonderful screams and yells of terror emanating from it, and the figures in green as they fled, waving their limbs about in utter confusion!  The sea itself has turned on the invader, and its monsters seem somewhat partial to the color green!  Despite the recent loss in some battles against these pesky neighbors of ours, the Mardierians are beginning to pluck up courage on the island, and all may come out well even yet!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rumor has it, however, that the Eslandolans are not to be cowed even by such evident signs of their upcoming defeat.  And, unfortunately, it has been brought to our attention that the ancient kraaken is not exactly the best at detecting different colors, and a few Mardierian ships have gone missing without the slightest warning... Nevertheless, here at the KPA we are certain that this is a clear omen against all those who dare pit themselves against the might of Mardier!

Actually... it would be fun to bring a cargo of kraaken meat into port...   Fact is, I was really looking forward to getting to guide the kraaken, but se la vie.  Congrats to all the other winners-who-actually-lost.    Does anyone else find our system of allocating prizes quite convoluted?

Congratulations! Since when do we say Kraaken? Always thought it was pronounced Kraken

Funny :p Kraaken and Kraken is pronounced completely the same in Dutch :p

So I can't help because I don't know how those two sound in English. But I think the way the Dutch people say it, should be the most correct :p

The word "kraken" in Dutch means "to break (something)"

Another guess: It could have to do with emotional distress while facing the beast. I'm sure if that thing was to pop up right before me, heck, I'd be adding a lot more A than just two - 'Kraaaaaaaaken!!!'
