The great grey murre of Colchis are considered to be birds of omen and prophecy - to see one soar overhead at sunrise foretells a successful battle; if one flies along the beach before a storm, it is an ill omen, and to see a dead one floating in the sea is a rare and auspicious occasion. | |||
Likewise, the sea serpent is revered by the people. To slay one is an honour, and its venom is sacred. | |||
